When Li Tianyang and the others were worried about Huludao being worried about life and death, they would never have thought that this Huludao would be as calm as ever.

It's not that Yuan Laoba doesn't want to take revenge, since he personally led people to rely on the secret passage to go to the island and find out the truth on the island, the flame of revenge in his heart began to burn.

It was easy for Yuan Laoba and them to touch Huludao, but when they were discovered, the whole island was on guard, and they were enough to hide on the island for five days before they grasped the gradual relaxation of Huludao's defense and returned the same way.

Even so, in the five days, in order to help Yuan Laoba divert the pursuers, he brought ten henchmen to the island, and in the end, only one person was left to return with him safely.

I thought that after the other pirate gangs heard the news of him, they would definitely send troops immediately and start to encircle and annihilate Huludao and the others. However, the other pirates, who were suspicious by nature, still couldn't help but wonder if Yuan Laoba harbored some bad intentions or something, and just sent a small group of pirate warships to test and attack the large group of sea ships outside Huludao.

However, things are so coincidental, seeing that only seven or eight warships are gradually approaching Hulu Island, Wu Shu, who thinks that he has eliminated the spies who have touched the island, and the information on the island has not been lost, of course, it is impossible to show weakness here. The so-called drama is a full set, even if he knows that the island is short of manpower at this time, Wu Shu still sent out most of the team members in his hands at once, and more than a dozen warships surged out and pressed towards the pirate fleet.

Seeing that a battle was inevitable, and with both sides in fear, nearly twenty warships suddenly appeared on the sea level in the far west, which made the hearts of the two sides jump in their hearts, and they cautiously retreated from a safe distance.

At this time, the pirates who knew their own situation well, how could they think that this suddenly appeared warship was owned by their alliance, and they cursed Yuan Laoba in their hearts. If it weren't for their caution, if the army really wanted to march in and attack Huludao, wouldn't this fleet that suddenly appeared just happen to have a praying mantis to replenish silkworms, and the yellow finch was behind?

Yuan Laoba can be regarded as a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis this time - there is no bitterness to say, obviously they planted a secret gambling curse on Hulu Island and swore that the news was true, and he was also convinced that this secret son was loyal to him, but things were so evil, and such a powerful fleet really appeared.

It didn't take long for the reality of the opposite fleet to be found out by the pirates. It's so familiar, who is not familiar with this new gang of pirates around here! The banner of the Ming Sailor floating high on the foremast, as well as the word "Cao" under the big flag, all showed the status of this new fleet to the many pirates present.

This is exactly what Cao Yongyi, the garrison officer of the Penghu Sailor who has just officially taken office for only a month, and most of the three thousand Penghu Sailors under his command.

There are still three points of nails in the rotten ship, although the Daming Sailor is rotten, but the bottom is there, Cao Yongyi used to be sneaky, and he can also transfer more than ten warships in the name of parade, and follow Li Tianyang to fight the autumn breeze behind them, not to mention that he is now a justifiable Penghu garrison officer, under an order, except for the two top bosses of the Fujian Governor and the Sailor who joined the army, who dares to disobey his dispatch in the Penghu Sailor?

It's just that with Cao Yongyi's timid and suspicious character, Li Tianyang was able to convince him to take such a big risk to come out and help Huludao break the siege, and the price paid was also very great!

Although Cao Yongyi has the eunuch Lu Gui behind him, it is precisely because of Lu Gui's identity that Cao Yongyi has always been resisted and suppressed by the bureaucrats around him, and finally fell in love with Li Tian to raise them as a fat fish, and the wealth he collected in the past few years and took the risk to take the sailor to the sea to suppress the bandits, in exchange for the current lieutenant official body, not only failed to let him get out of this desert island where birds don't as he wished, but also turned himself into a poor egg.

Therefore, when Lu Gui took a piece of evidence of his collusion with Hong Tang investigated by Jinyiwei, in order to block the mouth of this greedy superior, he finally ran to Li Tianyang with a thick face to cry poor and ask Li Tianyang to borrow money.

It is said that Cao Yongyi himself is not long-sighted, so he chose a eunuch as a backer, not only was he ostracized and suppressed by his colleagues on weekdays, but he also had to be exploited by this eunuch vampire, and he may not be able to end well. Just from the fact that this guy has been so miserable over the years, you can see a thing or two.

This time, it can be said that Cao Yongyi pulled out most of the Penghu Sailors, Li Tianyang not only used up the favor of going to the island to borrow money before, but also squeezed out 10,000 taels of silver from his own private money, bribing the new official to take office, and the poor garrison was a mess, so he said that he moved someone to lead the team out.

You must know that this 10,000 taels of silver, that is the private money that Li Tian raised his father Li De to Li Tian to support the two of them to get married, and the total is only 20,000 taels, which made Li Tianyang use half of it at once. Although the development of Bengang is good, the expenses are also large, where is there any spare money for Li Tianyang to squander it so much.

That's the case, the Penghu sailors are also procrastinating, the voyage of about two days, it took them five or six days to arrive, and now they have caught up with seven or eight warships to attack Huludao, they just stopped, looking like they were just watching a show.

In the final analysis, it's not that Cao Yongyi wants to take the 10,000 taels of silver in Li Tianyang's hands, but he doesn't want to work, and the shameful people in the world don't do it too much, and he doesn't complain that he has found such a backer as Lu Gui.

However, although in the end, the sailor fleet was only docked far away from Huludao about ten miles away, but for a group of combined pirates, with this sailor fleet of unknown origin beside them, as long as their brains were not broken, they would not easily start the battle.

Although the pirates are ferocious, they are just like the heroes of the green forest on land, and they are still unwilling to deal with the people of the government unless they have to. The rivers and lakes and the government are two ways for the pirates themselves, although all along, the men and horses of the official navy division have always taken pirates as the combat target, but unless they are cornered, which pirate will take the initiative to harass and attack a fleet of Daming sailors!

Unless this group of pirates has the intention of rebelling and wants to rebel, the more such pirates, the more pirates will stay away from this group of pirates, so as not to catch fire.

Therefore, as soon as the Penghu sailors came to the vicinity of the Huludao sea area, they immediately made the leaders of several pirate alliances outside the island as big as a fight, and they were in a dilemma, and they couldn't make up their minds for a long time. It is precisely because of their hesitation that Huludao continues to fall into an eerie calm.

Therefore, whether it is the Penghu sailors and the gang who came from afar, or Wu Shu and the others on Hulu Island, I hope that the situation will remain calm until Li Tianyang and them arrive!
