Chapter 440: Staring
Shen Leng and His Majesty asked for instructions, and after dark, they went out of the palace wearing the uniforms of the ordinary forbidden army, changed their clothes and returned to the camp of the sailor division where no one was, the camp was still under construction, after all, the scale of the sailor division was too large, and it was not easy to build it well for a while, just try to build some necessary things, such as trestle bridges.
Early the next morning, Shen Leng took Wang Kuohai and Dewey Ming Chen Ran and a few people, selected one hundred and ten elite soldiers, disguised themselves as local fishermen, and found a few fishing boats to go to sea.
"There are too many islands here in Penglai."
Wang Kuohai put his hand on the pergola and looked around: "In addition to a few relatively large islands such as the Immortal Pavilion and Immortal Jade over there, there can be hundreds of islands extending out of the surroundings, if the pirates send people to look at the top of the island, our sailor's warship has not yet approached them and ran away, if the boat is looking for it like this, if we find it, we estimate that it will be more than lucky, the islands over there are very large, not to mention hiding a few thousand people, hiding 100,000 people is no problem." ”
"I suddenly understood why the people of Sang had been in the nearby waters for the past few years."
Shen Leng thought of one thing.
"Of course, Haifutu doesn't know about this place, if he wants to come here to hide, he plunges in, God knows if he will encounter a reef and an undercurrent, and it is so good to come and hide quietly, most of them are pirates from Sang Country."
"But why do the people of Sang collude with Haifutu?"
Chen Ran was a little puzzled: "One is in the East China Sea and the other is in the South China Sea, where is there any connection." ”
"If it weren't for the people of Sang Country, they would first familiarize themselves with this place, and then they would have accepted Haifutu."
Shen Leng frowned: "That is, there are still others in the East China Sea who are answering him...... But I can't think of anyone else for a while. ”
The East China Sea is not like the South China Sea, the South China Sea is wide and there are many pirates, and most of the pirates in the East Bay are Bohai people, but they dare not approach the Daning coastal waters, although they are fierce, but they are also the kind of people who are not afraid of the sky and the earth when they get together, there is a stupid spirit, if there are few people, how dare dozens or hundreds of people come nonsense.
Haifutu had never been here, and if he didn't answer Shen Leng, he would definitely not believe it.
I thought of the Sang people who His Majesty said called Determined Miheng, he escaped from Chang'an City alone, did not dare to take the main road, no identity certificate, and it was naturally much slower to walk to Chaoyang City by sleeping in the open air, there was a group of Sang people in Chaoyang City who had lived for two months, and they were obviously preparing before the accident in Chang'an City.
"Is it that the people of Sang have long been in contact with Haifutu?"
Shen Leng's brows furrowed more and more: "If it's not a coincidence, the only reasonable explanation is that the Sang people who are studying in the Sihai Pavilion of the Academy are already preparing to withdraw, and those so-called Sang pirates are ready to respond, but as a result, the Tingwei Mansion detained everyone in Chang'an City, and only escaped one...... And the Sang civil strife, the so-called prince in the Sihai Pavilion is just the son of one of the princes, hundreds or even hundreds of princes, large and small, everyone wants to unify the Sang country, he goes back with what he learned from Daning, if it is ......"
Shen Leng looked at Wang Kuohai and them: "If they also started to contact Haifutu a long time ago, and take this opportunity to bring Haifutu back with that prince of Sang Kingdom, and get such a powerful pirate army, they will have a great advantage on the battlefield." ”
Shen Leng can only think of so much for the time being, and it seems to be more reasonable.
"We can't find Haifutu."
Shen Leng waved his hand: "Go back, see if there is any news from Gu Le and Wei Lan, if the group of Sang people in Chaoyang City are targeted, as long as they arrive in Chaoyang, they will definitely find a way to contact them, and it will not be difficult to find those pirates in Haifutu and Sang Country when the time comes." ”
Penglai Island Group is a group of hundreds of islands, the largest is not the most famous Immortal Pavilion, the reason why it is so famous there, in the final analysis, is only because it is relatively close to the coast, the largest scenery is the best and more fairy island called Wangxiang Island, the name is unremarkable, and the island named this name on the sea can not find six or seven out of ten.
Wangxiang Island is surrounded by dozens of small islands, the sea area is extremely complex, the undercurrent is turbulent, people who are not familiar with this place can not get close to the boat at all, seven or eight out of ten will be swept into the undercurrent, and one or two out of ten will either hit the reef or sink.
Haifutu is on Wangxiang Island, and it is indeed the San people who answer him.
In recent years, there have been more than a dozen Sang pirates who have been active in the East Bay area, but in fact, they were all sent by Yingtiao Liu'an's father, who called himself the King of Chaolu, in order to take his son back, but he would never have thought that because Mu Zhaotong's wife was also his own sister, the Tingwei Mansion detained people in Chang'an City.
"Many years ago."
The Santo who stood beside Haifutu was named Yajilang, the righteous son of Eijo Kawayasu, who grew up with Eijo Yanagian since childhood.
"King Aaro's sister, Lord Hideya, left her homeland at the most difficult time to find a suitable place to survive overseas, at that time, we were besieged by the enemy, and the place we controlled was reduced from a thousand miles to only a hundred miles, and everyone was in a panic, and no one knew if the enemy's sword would appear in front of them when they opened their eyes at dawn tomorrow."
He glanced at Haifutu: "Lord Xiujie left with a lot of responsibility at that time, it was our last hope, if we really can't hold it, Lord Xiujie can still take us to a safe place, but then we were lucky...... The enemy of our enemy took the opportunity to attack, and we joined forces with it, and completely defeated the enemy and recaptured the original land, and it stands to reason that Lady Shujie should have returned, but she did not return. ”
Yajilang let out a long breath: "She fell in love with a man in your Ning Kingdom. ”
Haifutu shook his head: "I'm not a Ning person. ”
Yajilang shrugged his shoulders: "It doesn't matter, it's almost...... When Lord Xiujie arrived in Ningguo, she was completely fascinated by that place, and she wrote a letter to send someone back to King Chaolu, saying that she had found the Kingdom of Heaven, a country that was incomparably beautiful, incomparably powerful, and incomparably vast, and she said that she did not want to go back. ”
Haifutu: "I'm not interested. ”
Yajilang didn't seem to hear it, and still said to himself: "Guess what, what was the first sentence of King Chaolu's reply to Lord Xiujie?" ”
Haifutu didn't speak.
"The king asked Lord Xiujie, rather, can you conquer?"
He smiled, "If it's really as Lord Xiujie described, Ning is an incomparably wonderful place, then why not conquer it?" If you can get Ningdi, what is the Sang Kingdom? Lord Xiujie replied that he could never conquer it...... So King Chaolu changed his mind, why is Ning so powerful? Since it is strong, there must be something we can learn from, and if we learn the strength of the Ning people, we will be able to unify the Sang country. ”
"Now, it is very close to this goal, and His Highness Liu An is about to return to China."
He seemed very excited: "With your support, His Royal Highness Liu An will go back with the advanced things of the Ning people, and we will only need three or five years to complete the great cause!" After unifying the Sang Kingdom, we will come again to conquer this land of tranquility. ”
"Huh."
Haifutu squeezed a word out of his throat, full of disdain and mockery.
Yajilang's face turned cold: "You think it's not realistic?" I think how do you look like you're sarcastic about me? ”
Haifutu: "I think I should go to sleep." ”
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, without giving the slightest face.
Ya Jilang looked at the back of Haifutu, snorted coldly, and said to himself: "If it weren't for the need for you lowly pirates to fight for us in the future, how would I be polite to you, and when your strength is drained in the future, you will know how terrible it is to be rude to me." ”
Eight thousand pirates are indeed too much of a help for them, in fact, the so-called King Chaolu has a total of only 30,000 horses, which is relatively strong among hundreds of princes.
Those small so-called princes, some of whom have only a few hundred people, dare to claim the title of king when they occupy a city or a place.
Haifutu walked back, and his confidant Duan Biao lowered his voice and said, "Our spies said that Eleven Niang has also arrived." ”
Haifutu stopped.
"Shouldn't we take some measures, otherwise, the big thing may be disturbed by her."
"Leave her alone."
Haifutu continued to walk forward: "What can her two or three hundred people do, old, weak, sick and disabled. ”
Duan Biao opened his mouth, but he didn't dare to continue to persuade anything, who doesn't know what Haifutu thinks about Eleven Niang, after so many years, the only woman who makes Haifutu tempted is her, but what about her? But I'm always thinking about how to kill the Sea Float.
The so-called bad fate, but that's it.
Chaoyang City.
Gu Le, who changed into casual clothes, leaned against the window of the teahouse, staring at the Qinglou opposite, a few Sang people have been in for more than an hour and haven't come out, these people have drunk too much wine before they came, and they all walk crookedly, whether it is clothing or hairstyle, or the obscene temperament of the Sang people themselves, Gu Le is not pleasing to the eye, if it is not for the important matter, Gu Le really wants to beat those guys.
Shen Leng boarded the teahouse, Gu Le heard the footsteps and immediately turned around, seeing that it was Shen Leng who came and bowed down with his face: "General." ”
Shen Leng helped him: "Don't always be so polite." ”
He looked across the side: "Still nothing?" ”
"Not yet."
Gu Le said: "The person named Zhi Mi Heng has no identity credentials, and it is difficult to enter Chaoyang City, so his subordinates also arranged for people to patrol outside the city, and once they found suspicious people, they immediately reported it, but his subordinates suspected that Zhi Mi Heng would not enter the city at all, it was too dangerous for him, so his subordinates arranged for people to find out where the boat of this group of Sang people in the city was docked, and kept staring, people couldn't keep an eye on it, and the boat could always keep an eye on it." ”
Shen sneered: "It's really right to let you go to the Tingwei Mansion, your mind is suitable for doing things in the Tingwei Mansion." ”
Gu Le shook his head: "My subordinates still feel that it is refreshing to follow the general to fight the enemy in the water division." ”
Shen Leng: "Don't say the word subordinate in the future, Lord Han heard it badly." ”
"Subordinates remember."
Shen sneered and shook his head: "It's good to keep an eye on it, don't startle the snake, Chang'an City's detention of the Sang people is not public, if Zhi Miheng has not yet contacted the Sang people in the city, they may not know that Yingtiao Liu'an has been detained." ”
Gu Le nodded: "Don't worry, general, Lord Wei Lan will also send someone to keep an eye on it." ”
He looked diagonally opposite, in the teahouse next to the Qinglou, Wei Lan stood at the window, raising his glass to Shen Leng from afar.
Shen Leng bowed slightly.
The Sang people are nothing, Shen Leng didn't pay attention to them.
What he cared about was Haifutu.
