"Boss, let's withdraw!"

When it comes to henchmen in the Flying Dragon Gang, in addition to Zheng Zhihu and Zheng Zhibao's two cousins, it is Liang Li's words that can be most recognized by Zheng Zhilong, and at this time he is admonishing Zheng Zhilong bitterly on the side.

Liang Li is a native of Jinjiang, Fujian, and is considered half of Zheng Zhilong's fellow countrymen, because his family is poor and miserable, so when Zheng Zhilong and the others returned to their hometown to recruit people to Jingpu, he naturally joined Zheng Zhilong's Flying Dragon Gang.

Subsequently, Zheng Zhilong went to the Ryukyu Pirate District to develop, and Liang Li also had the opportunity to display his talents, in the battle between the Flying Dragon Gang and other gangs, Liang Li, who dared to fight and was rich in some resourcefulness, gradually stood out from the gang, until he later became Zheng Zhilong's right-hand man.

"Impossible, my two younger brothers died on the island, if I can't even get their bones back, then what shame do I have to go back to see my parents and uncle!!" Zheng Zhilong was already a little stunned, even if he knew that there was no victory at this time, he still arbitrarily wanted to organize people to attack the Hongmen fleet.

The price of being young and frivolous and having a smooth journey is that Zheng Zhilong can't do the temperament of a long-standing bandit like Yuan Laoba, and the first thing he thinks of when he encounters setbacks is to burn jade!

"Boss, go out and have a look now, the brothers are already very tired, and the battle of the rout in Hong Kong has spread, and to be honest, many brothers have already retreated." Liang Li still persuaded without giving up, pointing to the fighting sound around him that was gradually getting smaller.

"Hmph, even if I'm the only one left, I'll never give up!"

"As the saying goes, we are not afraid of no firewood, we still have the capital, so why bother to lose it all here!"

“…………”

In the end, another hour passed, and in the midst of Liang Li and other close guards' henchmen pulling and persuading, Zheng Zhilong, who was slowly unwilling, resentful, angry, and hateful, fell silent and did not respond for a long time.

Liang Li saw the opportunity, and immediately ordered a retreat instead of Zheng Zhilong, wanting to take advantage of the dim scene when the sun had not yet come out to escape with as many pirates as possible.

Of course, before escaping, they also need to make arrangements, leaving some people to cut off, after all, they are now at war with the Hongmen fleet, and the warships in front are intertwined, if they are not properly handled, it is likely to cause the Hongmen people to notice, and it is not good to drag their own side to fight until dawn.

The abandoned pirates, Liang Li and they decided that it was Gong Zhuyi and Xu Fei without thinking about it, who made Gong Zhuyi and their pirate gang surrender at the beginning, they were mostly forced to be helpless, their loyalty was not high, and they had little to do with the Flying Dragon Gang, is there anyone else who is suitable besides them?

Of course, Gong Zhuyi and they are not stupid, at this time, Liang Li led people to forcefully ask them to send their subordinates to meet the Flying Dragon Gang who were fighting hard in front.

But in the end, Gong Zhuyi and the others still sent out the battle in their hands, and they went up with them, as well as the hundreds of remnants of their gang.

It was too simple to persuade Gong Zhuyi that they were too simple, Liang Li saw that the other party was hesitant, so he trayed out the matter of his own withdrawal on the spot, and then gave Gong Zhuyi two ways, one is that everyone will fight to the death with the Hongmen people here, and everyone will die here together, and the other is that they encourage those half-hearted guys under their hands, so that they can withstand the pursuit of the Hongmen soldiers, and they, the masters and helpers, can follow them with their henchmen and flee overseas.

As mentioned earlier, because Gong Zhuyi and others betrayed the relationship with Hongmen at the beginning, they knew that if this naval battle failed, then it would be impossible for them to be forgiven and accepted by Hongmen, and it would even be impossible for them to gain a foothold in the South China Sea.

And this retreat, it is impossible for the elite of the Flying Dragon Gang to return to their lair in the Ryukyu Sea, after all, the families of the elite of their Flying Dragon Gang are all in Jingpu Port, and if they are defeated at this time, they need to go south as quickly as possible, and meet Yan Siqi and others who fled in advance in the afternoon, and go into exile.

And Gong Zhuyi and them, the local Ryukyu pirates who were coerced by the Flying Dragon Gang at the beginning, many people's families were imprisoned in the Flying Dragon Gang's lair in Ryukyu because of the distrust of the Flying Dragon Gang, and they will definitely not follow Zheng Zhilong and them south.

Gong Zhuyi and they can't turn back Danshuikeng For ordinary pirates, changing the leader will not be less meat, and judging from the seats in Hongmen over the years, it is much more straightforward to accept these low-level pirates than to accept them to fold some heads and leaders.

Coupled with the panic of the people at this time, the pessimistic attitude of many pirates towards this battle made many of them have the idea of surrendering, and they are out of control.

In this way, Gong Zhuyi and the others thought about it carefully, and they made a decision: instead of bringing a group of gangs that may rebel at any time, it is better to let them exert their last light and heat, and threaten their families in the lair, so that they can finally do their best for the Flying Dragon Gang.

Many pirates didn't know that they had been abandoned, and when Gong Zhuyi and the others went back with a deep and sad look to talk to the pirates under their command, saying that the Flying Dragons helped Zheng Zhilong and they used their imprisoned families as a threat to force them to attack the Hongmen fleet again, otherwise all the pirates' families would be executed at that time!

The pirates themselves were in a state of panic, and at this time, in the face of Gong Zhuyi and others' eloquent narration, where was there time to distinguish the authenticity of it, whether it was for my family or for themselves, they had to muster up their morale, raise their swords again, drag their exhausted bodies, and launch a fierce attack on the Hongmen fleet.

Wu Jie and they are also at the end of the crossbow, the battle line that was already in danger, because the flying dragon helped them make a faint move, and then they messed up their positions, giving them a chance to breathe, and now suddenly another fierce offensive suddenly opened several gaps on the front of the remnants of the Hongmen army, which was already on the verge of collapse.

The sea front suddenly became confusing, and even Zheng Zhilong, who had been pretending to be dumb, was ready to move several times, wanting to interrupt the retreat that Liang Li and the others were carrying out in an orderly manner.

However, in the end, reason told Zheng Zhilong that since he had acquiesced in the decision to retreat, and even if the remnants of Hongmen were defeated at sea, they still had room to retreat to the dock, and they and others could not destroy each other at all.

On the contrary, if they let go of this opportunity to retreat, then it is likely that their entire Wyvern Gang will remain in the inland sea of Chicken Coop Harbor forever.
