A team that was almost not inferior to the size of the fleet formed by Yuan Laoba and them more than ten years ago once again passed through the island where the Penghu Navy Battalion was located. It's just that their course is exactly the opposite of the direction of Yuan Laoba's fleet, one to the west, and the other to the east.

The fleet was mixed together by Li Tianyang and his son Li De, of which Li De's fleet had twenty-four ships, and Li Tianyang raised twenty warships in their camp, a total of forty-four warships, with a total of more than 4,700 people.

When passing through the Penghu Naval Division, the Penghu Naval Division went against the original closed door, and more than ten warships actually fished out of the dock area of the naval division's camp, and the leader of the team turned out to be the commander with a rich figure and an official face, Li Tianyang's partner.

The commander's surname is Cao, his name is Yongyi, and he has been in the position of the commander of the Penghu Naval Division for seven or eight years, and he has been suppressed and excluded by his colleagues and bosses on this deserted island that even a bird does not want to patronize, and he can't get out and leave.

This time, Commander Cao personally dispatched because of the great gift brought to him by his henchman Xi Qianhu a few days ago, which made him see the hope of getting out of this predicament, coupled with the close cooperation with Qi Xintang in the past two years, he finally accumulated a lot of money, and he was able to have the capital to find some connections to make a point.

And in order to seize this opportunity and add a little weight to his escape, Cao Yongyi came uninvited to fight this time, and at the same time went into battle in person, just to plug his opponent's provocative mouth and do things beautifully.

"Why did the military gate take such a big risk and go out in person to explain the matter to Xi Qianhu, isn't it the same?" Facing the uninvited commander, Li Tianyang felt a little unhappy in his heart, but the expression on his face was concerned and flattered: "The so-called gentleman does not stand under the dangerous wall, and no one can say what accidents will happen when fighting such a thing." ”

"It's okay, I know what kind of virtue I am, this time I came with me just to go through the motions, and all the things about the war will be handed over to Xiao Li and you to deal with, don't worry, this time the thirteen warships I brought will all be handed over to you for command, and I will never interfere." Cao Yongyi is a person who understands, puts his position very right, and speaks very clearly as soon as he comes up.

Li Tianyang is worried about this problem, now the relationship between everyone is the honeymoon period, if this old Cao is not clear and points fingers in the war, Li Tianyang will be very embarrassed at that time.

You said you wanted to listen to him, Li Tianyang has been dealing with this guy for so long, and he has a very thorough understanding of this guy's personality and ability, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling is everything, and he is timid and afraid of things, so happy, the whole thing is the standard version of a wine bag and rice bag; But if you don't listen to him, this guy has a low vision and a small heart, isn't this offending him? Li Tianyang wants to develop in the South China Sea in the future, but there is still no official relationship behind them, and it is not easy to develop such a line after operating for so long, and it is not easy to say that it is easy to give up.

Not to mention that this old Cao is lucky, this time Li Tianyang gave them such a big gift, there is a chance that this guy will take another step and become a real military attache of the real power faction, which will be of greater help to Li Tianyang and their future development!

"Hehe, where is the military gate, with your ability, strategizing, and winning a thousand miles of talent, in the face of this Yuan Lao Eighth District pirate, it is not a matter of being caught." Li Tianyang breathed a sigh of relief, but this sycophant kept patting: "It's just a knife to kill chickens, and I ask the military gate to watch me wait for you to come back with a military merit." ”

"Hahahaha!! It's still a hero from a teenager, Xiao Li, I'm optimistic about you!! "Cao Yongyi has been working hard in the officialdom for so long, although he has no fart skills in business, but in terms of crooked ways and figuring out the meaning of words, he is self-taught. Now that Li Tianyang's words came out, how could he not hear what Li Tianyang meant, at least after this battle, he would be able to get a share of the merits from it, which was also his intention to go out in person.

At this time, on Huludao Island on the outskirts of the Ryukyu Islands, Yuan Laoba, who had just escaped from defeat, was hiding alone in his house and did not see anyone, angry, regretful, annoyed, scared, worried, and all kinds of emotions were mixed in. A big battle lost more than half of his strength, which filled his heart with frustration for Yuan Laoba, who had been galloping for more than ten years.

More than ten days ago, Yuan Laoba was still having a commanding life, a happy life, and a tribute to the Spring and Autumn Dream of the predecessors Xu Hai and Wang Zhi, in the blink of an eye, he was like falling into the eighteenth layer of hell, and began to worry about the fierce sharks and a group of strong enemies who would chase after him anytime and anywhere.

More than ten years of pampered life, has quietly consumed Yuan Laoba's ambitions, he thought that he was still the original warrior who rushed to kill the enemy and moved forward bravely, but in fact he has become the kind of person he hated at the beginning.

It was precisely because of this change that he betrayed his brother and fled alone during the war a few days ago.

In fact, it is not to blame that he is greedy for life and afraid of death, as the so-called barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes, he once had nothing, everything depends on his life to work hard, so he has no worries, just to win a place to survive, at this time he is determined to forge ahead, dare to fight, and have great ambitions.

But now, he has three thousand good men, and he doesn't need his help, and his own good sons and daughters will send him a steady stream of gold and silver treasures; He has a group of wives and concubines, and all kinds of beauties have tasted it all over, Yangzhou thin horses, and beautiful women in the north, which consumes his ambition; In order to leave a foundation for his children, he tried his best to suppress and control his sons, and at the same time guard against the brothers who worked hard together.

In this way, it seems that their team is very strong, but in fact, it is just a group of realistic paper tigers, and they just need someone who dares to tease this tiger.

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in." Yuan Laoba shouted weakly.

It was Lao Yi who came back with Yuan Laoba, and when he saw Lao Yi, Yuan Laoba's expression was a little complicated, and he regretted that he should not have listened to Lao Yi's instigation at that time, and gave up the brother who could generally be entrusted with life and death.

Originally, it was only a slight disadvantage, and the sailor team at that time obviously had no intention of joining the battle, if Yuan Laoba and they didn't flee at that time, they might not have lost so miserably, at least they could bring back a lot of men and horses, not like now, only eight or nine boats came back, less than a thousand people.
