"I'm laughing to death!"

"What kind of paid service is it, it's really interesting!"

The middle-aged man cried and laughed: "I didn't expect this to be the result, at first I still had a bit of luck, fantasizing about whether these pirates have a conscience and abandon evil and follow ......!" ”

Saying that, the middle-aged man himself laughed, with a little playful wry smile on his face: "Seeing them helping merchant ships treat the wounded and help us repair damaged ships, I couldn't believe my eyes at first, even today I feel like I'm dreaming, this is the strangest and most interesting one of the pirates I've ever met, and this pirate really left a deep impression on me!" ”

The black skeleton's behavior was indeed intriguing, but everyone saw that the middle-aged man still had something to say, so they didn't rush to interject and waited for the other party to finish speaking.

"These pirates look extremely polite, if you think that they are all good people, you are very wrong, we are also confused by the hypocrisy of these pirates, and told those pirates about the situation on the merchant ship, and when the pirates asked us for money, it suddenly dawned on us, how can there be a tiger in the world that does not eat people, but it is just to eat early and eat late."

The middle-aged man shook his head with a wry smile and said, "There are crew members who can't react at all, and they argue with these pirates, and the result is ...... You know. But what happened next would you never guess? ”

The middle-aged man's sale of Guanzi caused everyone's dissatisfaction, and everyone was hearing the excitement, could they not let themselves reward this guy?

"Alright...... I said, don't look at me so viciously, my intelligence is very useful to you, in case you see the Black Skull next time, you must remember my words, when you see the Black Skull flag, don't run, you can't outrun their ships, don't have the slightest luck, hide the goods, don't think about fighting them, you must do what the Black Skull says, otherwise the consequences are quite serious! ”

Seeing that some people are dismissive, middle-aged people don't want to persuade more, they have already said it, and it is their business whether to listen or not.

"When the Black Skull asked us for our belongings after doing the perfect thing, several of the crew members thought the pirates were easy to talk to, so they begged the pirates to spare them, but they were immediately beaten up by the pirates, stripped and hung on the bow of the ship to roast the soles of their feet on fire, and then hung some disobedient crew members in the sea to 'feed the fish'."

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man seemed to recall the tragic situation at the beginning, his whole body twitched violently, and the corner of his mouth said with a wry smile: "I am one of the people who defended with the black skeleton, and I can still feel the cold air rising from the soles of my feet!" ”

The crowd laughed again!

"What are you laughing at, wait until you suffer before laughing!"

Everyone stopped laughing and looked at the middle-aged man: "Okay! You go on to say ......".

"We thought that these pirates didn't know about the cargo on the merchant ship, so we lied to them, but the pirates were angry and searched all the goods on the merchant ship, some of the goods were carried by the crew, even I didn't know, or they were found by the pirates. However, these pirates had made it clear to us in advance that they had secretly concealed a cargo at three times the price of the cargo, so they took more than forty percent of our cargo at once, and forcibly deducted the cost of their treatment and maintenance of the ship they gave us. ”

"You're not joking! What else do pirates count merchant cargo? ”

In the eyes of these maritime merchants, the pirates are a group of ignorant bandits, and they should know nothing about anything other than robbing homes and houses.

"You're right, I think so too, who of you have ever seen pirates who can settle accounts, and who has ever seen a pirate ship with doctors and craftsmen, in fact, if this comes out of your mouth, I won't believe it, but that's the way it is, some of them are more shrewd than the people on the merchant ship, I even think I met a colleague, isn't it ridiculous?"

This time, the surrounding maritime merchants couldn't laugh anymore, and it was impossible for the middle-aged man to deceive himself with this kind of thing, because there was no meaning.

"What do you mean...... Among these pirates are scholars, craftsmen and doctors? ”

"It can only be explained in this way", the middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders and said: "None of you have met the Black Skull, but since the Black Skull is active in the Bohai Sea area, you will meet sooner or later, and then you will know that what I said is not wrong at all!" ”

The fat man who was the first to provoke the conversation said: "Fortunately, I saw the black skeleton near Jian'an Prefecture last time, and the black skeleton didn't have the courage to attack Jian'an Prefecture yet, and after I finished the transaction, I heard that the black skeleton fought with the jute and the sea snake, otherwise it would have hit the black skeleton."

Someone asked: "So the strength of the black skeleton is very strong, otherwise it would not have clashed with the yellow skull and the sea snake, but the black skull has only appeared for less than a year, and the yellow skull and the sea snake have been rampant on the Bohai Sea for decades, and the strength should not be weak, why can't the black skull be defeated?" ”

Everyone turned their heads to the old maritime merchant who spoke at the beginning, but he had personally said that he knew why the Black Skull was so strong?

The old merchant coughed, cleared his throat and said, "I was interrupted by a few of you just now, where did you go?" ”

"Speaking of the black skeleton's lair, it may be around the yellowing area of the Yellow River estuary!"

"That's right! It seems to be said here", the old maritime merchant's memory is a little bad, and he thought for a while and said: "After the Yellow River was diverted, the Yellow River flowed into the Bohai Sea from Dizhou, and the surrounding hundreds of miles of land became a Ze country, and the local people became chaotic people if they couldn't survive, although they were suppressed by the government, but there were too many people who fled into the yellowing area, and the officials and soldiers did not dare to enter the yellowing area, so they could only deploy ...... around, and the people inside did not dare to come out, but they couldn't live if they didn't come out, so they could only go to the sea."

"Isn't there a Dengzhou Sailor? As long as there is a wall at the mouth of the sea, these rebels will not surrender obediently! ”

"You said it easily, do you think that you can block all the people inside by driving the battleship to the estuary, not to mention whether it can be blocked, that is, if it can be blocked, it also depends on how many warships are needed, the entire yellowing area is hundreds of miles long, you can tell me how many ships are needed, does the Dengzhou Navy Division have so many warships?"

Everyone is right to think about it, there were tens of thousands of people in the most glorious days of the Dengzhou Naval Division, and there were more than 1,000 warships. However, these warships also require money to maintain, and there has been no major war in the Northeast for a hundred years, and the imperial court's money and food for the naval division are decreasing every year, and now there are more than 100 large and small warships of the Dengzhou Naval Division, and these warships seem to be a lot, but the entire Bohai Sea and the Yellow Sea are too big, and it is impossible to concentrate all the warships together to suppress bandits, and there are less than dozens of warships that can really suppress bandits.
