"Boss Yuan, are you dissatisfied with the conditions offered by our lord? If you are not satisfied, you can also put forward your own opinions, our lord will definitely show the greatest sincerity, and will never let you suffer! With the help of Liu Tiehu's translation, the Japanese envoy intermittently expressed his meaning.

In fact, the conditions for recruiting an given by this Japanese are also very generous, as long as he Yuan Laoba accepts the prey of their Samoa Bo's recruitment, he can immediately become a general, and one of the three territories controlled by the Shimazu clan has his own fiefdom.

Moreover, the Japanese did not force him to hand over his military power, and his current team still belonged to him Yuan Laoba himself, and no one else could interfere.

It's just that with the pride that was re-energized by Hongtang, and Yuan Laoba, who was holding his breath and wanted to take revenge, it seemed that accepting this widow to recruit him would really damage his prestige Yuan Laoba. As the saying goes, rather be the head of the chicken than the tail of the phoenix, he Yuan Laoba is as good as you are in the Yellow Sea, and the rich pirate experience over the years and the remnants of the prestige of the year have made his team gradually swell day by day, and it looks like he is about to recover the strength he had when he was in Huludao.

Today, with more than 2,000 people and more than 20 warships, it can be regarded as a hegemon in the South China Sea, but now with the South China Sea pirates being driven to the Yellow Sea by Hongtang, the power structure of the Yellow Sea pirates has also undergone different changes.

The Yellow Sea Pirates used to have heads and faces, and now they are also developing rapidly, although they are not as good as Yuan Laoba and their gang, but any two of them are combined, they are definitely two points stronger than Yuan Laoba and them.

And with the invasion of South China Sea pirates like Yuan Laoba and the suppression of their local pirate gangs in the Yellow Sea, these local pirates have also colluded with each other out of self-preservation, and it has become more and more difficult for Yuan Laoba and them to annex a certain group of pirates.

Therefore, Yuan Laoba was a little moved by the recruitment of the Japanese people, after all, after so many years of struggle, isn't it to glorify the lintel and leave a road to prosperity for his descendants?

Although it is not the Zhao'an of the Ming Dynasty, the actual Japanese Samoto is also a good choice, and the treatment they give is really good, giving themselves a lot of freedom.

The most important consideration is that he is not young now, and he will be fifty years old in two years, and his energy is no longer as good as before. Now with the support of a breath of qi held in his heart, he Yuan Laoba can still muster up the courage to fight on the sea again, but in the real battle, he is more standing in the rear and commanding his subordinates to fight, rather than charging and fighting on the front line like before.

"Why did you suddenly think of recruiting us? To tell you the truth, we often don't interfere with each other's well water, except for Tiehu, you and I have a little friendship, we have no contact with your Kagoshima, but you Kagoshima have several merchant ships that have been robbed by us? In the midst of hesitation, Yuan Laoba couldn't help but ask about the reason why Samoto recruited them.

Yuan Laoba's current gang nest is located on the northern edge of the Yellow Sea, a little far away from the Ryukyu Sea, so there is a lack of information sources in the Ryukyu Sea.

In fact, the news of the defeat of the Japanese Beihongtang was not dissatisfied, but what Yuan Laoba didn't know was that his subordinates had already known about this matter one by one, but they ordered the people around him to hide the news from Yuan Laoba, so that he didn't know anything about it.

The reason why she concealed Yuan Laoba was because her henchmen knew that the biggest motivation to support Yuan Laoba's struggle in this sea area was to be able to return to Huludao one day!

Because of this goal, Yuan Laoba is almost fifty years old, and he is still fighting on the front line, although he has no real fights, but every time he goes to sea, he will still lead the team to set off, find a target, and re-hone his rusty old knife.

It is precisely because he saw the ambition of being in charge that his group of henchmen who still never give up saw the high-spirited big brother and felt the fighting spirit again.

Moreover, everyone also knows that now their eldest brother is gritting his teeth and chasing Hong Tang's figure, if he knows this devastated news, no one dares to guarantee what kind of situation will happen to him.

Therefore, like now, let Yuan Laoba maintain strong energy and fighting spirit, and bring everyone back to the top state, it is also a period of time for everyone to see hope, why should everyone break this beautiful expectation!

"It's not the Hongtang who defeated you at the beginning, and then I don't know what benefits I got and suddenly sent troops to help the Ryukyu Kingdom attack Amami Goshima, which was originally in the hands of this Kagoshima daimyo, and drove out the unsuspecting Kagoshima Japanese people." Thinking that Yuan Laoba knew about this big thing that originally caused a sensation in the South China Sea and the Yellow Sea, Liu Tiehu said with a somewhat contemptuous expression on the side of the Japanese envoy who could not understand Chinese.

"What, Hongtang attacking Amami Island? When did it happen? Yuan Laoba was immediately shocked, such a big thing, but he didn't hear the slightest rumor, where didn't he let his expression be confused!

"It's almost a year, why don't you know about it?" Liu Tiehu showed a suspicious expression, Yuan Laoba is such a big pirate gang leader, it is impossible for him to be so ill-informed!

"............" Yuan Laoba was silent for a moment, and then quickly thought of the reason, and said with both comfort and a little anger: "It must be these old guys who have hidden this news, thinking that Lao Tzu is really a fragile person?" Will you really be disturbed by such a news? ”

Although he is strong and hard, it is an indisputable fact that Yuan Laoba's resolute face still has a bit of depression.

Yuan Laoba's struggle in the past few years, isn't it just a reason, who wants to develop and grow, how can Hongtang not grow and develop!

Although they didn't have much intersection with Samosa, in the days when they were begging for a living next to the Ryukyu Islands, Yuan Laoba and his family naturally had a deep understanding of the two behemoths around them. Even in the time period when he Yuan Laoba was the most powerful and ambitious, he never thought of breaking ground on the heads of these two Tai Sui Masters, at most, it was just to rob and rob the cargo ships belonging to these two families.

Thinking about it carefully, this is a helpless and uncontroversial matter, the development speed of Hongtang at the beginning was amazing, and it was Yuan Laoba who had personally felt it, and it was the biggest victim.

Since Yuan Laoba himself has been able to develop and grow in the past few years, how could Hongtang, who was already developing rapidly, wait for him in the same place!
