36 Encounters

On the sea more than 40 miles southwest of the Penghu Islands, a team of more than 10 warships is slowly advancing in the southwest direction under the blowing of the sea breeze. At the front of the fleet, there was a converted lucky ship, nearly a mile ahead of the fleet behind it.

"This group of bastards, king 0 bastards, they say it nicely, but when TM starts to do things, they are procrastinating and deliberately slowing down!" On the Fu ship, the one who was looking back on the deck was Wu Daofu and his entourage, who were called by Li Tianyang to go to the Penghu Naval Division.

"Angkor, why don't you go over and urge again!" A strong man who followed Wu Daofu's side, seeing the anxious look on Wu Daofu's face, couldn't help but say.

"If it works, I'll stick behind them and won't come back! Dog 0 day thing, when the cashier, the hands and feet are really fast, let them help a little but don't work, and the effort is not distracted! Wu Daofu was very worried about the safety of Bengang Li Tianyang and them. It was already three days ago since Yuan Laoba and their ships passed through Penghu, and Wu Daofu and they had no news of the camp at all, so how not to make Wu Daofu anxious: "No, I'll go over and urge again!" ”

"Lord Qianhu, can we increase our speed again, now the wind direction is just right, and it is suitable for hurrying tightly!" Coming to the flagship of the sailor, Wu Daofu faced Xi Qianhu, who was assigned by the commander to lead the sailor, and begged in a low voice.

"What's the hurry, if you're worried about your young master, then let's just go directly to your stupid port, isn't it over, I have a lot of things to do, I insist on going south and joining up with your fleet, then I don't have to be careful to meet Yuan Laoba and their gang of bandits!" Xi Qianhu was obviously shirking, and even owed Wu Daofu's perfunctory expression, drinking a pot of wine and eating side dishes with a comfortable face, and his life was not easy.

Before leaving the camp gate, the commander had talked to him, and this time more than 10 warships of the naval division were dispatched, and the commander used the excuse that he was patrolling the surrounding waters, but he was really going to encounter the pirates and suffered great damage, so he, the commander, just couldn't eat and walked away.

Although patrolling the sea area is the responsibility of the sailor, as it is now, more than a dozen warships are dispatched at once, and it is a terrible matter.

The government of the Ming Dynasty was extremely strict in controlling the army, and it was impossible and did not dare to transfer such a large army at will. The loss is that in the poor countryside of Penghu, the Penghu Sailor has declined again, which makes the commander have so much courage to do this kind of thing.

But to say that he asked these troops to really suppress bandits, that was something he couldn't think of, and this was also the reason why he told Xi Qianhu to sharpen foreign skills and kill time. Xi Qianhu also knew very well that if he really wanted to make these dozen or so warships suffer heavy losses, then his kind-looking and gentle only adults would torture him, a former cronie.

Wu Daofu was helpless, he also wanted to take more than ten warships of this naval division to kill Bengang directly, but Li Tianyang had ordered him to take them to the west if he moved the commander, and waited for a few days near the sea area of Qishatou to join Li Tianyang and them.

In this way, under the tug of Xi Qianhu, Qishatou, which would have taken only two days to arrive, was dragged for more than four days, except for the time they had been sailing for two days, and it was only at noon three days later that they saw the somewhat familiar islands and reefs around the easternmost part of Qishatou.

Wu Daofu looked at the calm sea area, and really couldn't find any Hongtang boats, or any clues of Yuan Laoba's fleet, and he was a little worried in his heart, whether he had delayed the time and missed the time to join Li Tianyang and them. Just when he was apprehensive in his heart, a group of black spots appeared in front of him, but they dispelled his doubts.

Yuan Laoba's fleet was dragged down by more than a dozen warships without sails, and from the moment they gave the order to turn the bow of the ship, for more than two days, they could only sail on the sea by relying on the traction of other ships. Now that he was finally about to get out of the Qishatou sea area, he was about to enter the Dayuan Sea, and he happened to encounter more than a dozen warships of the Penghu Naval Division.

When his subordinates came in to report the news to Yuan Laoba, Yuan Laoba asked a few henchmen around him in surprise: "Hehe, this sailor is so bold that he dares to go to sea, aren't you afraid that we will eat them?" ”

Lao Yi and a few of the pirates were also surprised, as neighbors for more than ten years, Yuan Laoba and they had no less dealings with the guys of the sailors, what kind of birds they were now, they knew very well in their hearts. As long as you can afford the price, such a moth in the sailor who even dares to sell the sailor's warship, it can be said that there is really nothing else to impress these bastards except to make money. Now that I see the sun coming out in the west, how can I not surprise everyone.

"Boss, as long as these guys don't trouble us, let's not provoke them!" Lao Yi was surprised, and hurriedly persuaded Yuan Laoba, for fear that Yuan Laoba would pass on the losses he suffered in Hongtang to the head of the water master.

"Hahaha, don't worry, Lao Yi, we're not stupid, how could we provoke this group of bastards at this time, as long as their target is not us, let's treat them as air." Yuan Laoba's words dispelled Lao Yi's concerns, he is not a stupid person, how could he trouble the water master at this time, that is, on weekdays, Yuan Lao Ba will not really provoke this water master. After all, the water division is a ******** organization, and if you really provoke them, it will not be like stabbing a hornet's nest, and there is no benefit, and you will be stung out of the bag.

Therefore, although they saw the warships of the sailor, Yuan Laoba and they didn't care at all about the reason why the sailor came to this sea area, except for arranging a search warship to monitor their every move, Yuan Laoba had no other actions. He believed that these sailors would not be so overwhelmed by their eyesight that they would dare to fight his idea that his strength had increased so much.

Sure enough, when they saw Yuan Laoba and their fleet, the sailors on the opposite side suddenly became confused, turned around one after another, and avoided Yuan Laoba's route, so as not to face them down.

"Xi Qianhu, the commander has explained to you that letting you go to sea is to help us survive, I don't ask all of you to contribute, but you can't just see Yuan Laoba's fleet and want to bring the team back!" On the side of the sailor's fleet, Wu Daofu was bitterly appeasing Xi Qianhu and trying his best to prevent Xi Qianhu from planning to return home.

"Old Wu, you don't look at how many ships are on the other side, I want to help to the end, but you also know that I can't play with the lives of more than a thousand brothers and these more than ten warships, otherwise I won't be able to pay the difference when I go back!" At this time, Xi Qianhu could be regarded as talking about it and expressing his concerns.

"Don't worry, Xi Qianhu, we promised the commander at the beginning that we would never let you take risks!" In order to stabilize Xi Qianhu, Wu Daofu said all kinds of soft words, but he couldn't shake Xi Qianhu's plan. No matter what kind of deal Wu Daofu had with his chief, Xi Qianhu still felt that it was better not to take risks.

In the end, after Wu Daofu's oath and assurance, and he kept talking about the commanding envoy, Xi Qianhu reluctantly agreed to Wu Daofu's request, took the sailor fleet, went around in a big circle, and avoided the sight of Yuan Laoba's fleet and walked towards the convergence goal agreed upon by Li Tianyang and Wu Daofu.
