Chapter 864: The Brutal Navy (Part II)
As Wu Meng issued the final warning to the Turen warship, there was also a commotion in the Turen fleet on the opposite side, especially when they saw that the ballistas and artillery on the Great Song warship turned to aim at them, which made the Turen on the warship even more nervous, for fear that the Song people would really ignite the fire and attack.
Originally, Wu Meng didn't plan to really fight with the natives of Mashenggang, the reason why he showed a tough posture was nothing more than to scare the natives, because he knew that these natives have always bullied the weak and feared the hard, if you show a little weakness, then the other party will definitely gain an inch, so when facing them, you must not take half a step back, so as to achieve a more ideal effect.
However, to Wu Meng's surprise, this tried and tested method in the past failed, and he saw that the native warship on the opposite side quickly calmed down after the riot, and did not get out of the way, which made Wu Meng a little surprised, but at this time, Zuo Siming put down the telescope in his hand and said to him: "General Wu, a ship came out of the opposite side, it seems that it wants to negotiate with us!" ”
Zuo Siming stretched out his hand as he spoke, Wu Meng followed his finger and looked, and sure enough, he found that a small boat came out of the Turen's fleet, carrying several Turen, and they were not armed, which was indeed a negotiation.
Wait until the boat of the natives sails in front of them, Wu Meng ordered the people to let them in, and then the boat docked next to their warship, there are two natives on the boat who climbed up along the rope ladder, and the natives in the back are dressed ordinarily, obviously the entourage of the natives in front, and the natives in front are not only gorgeously dressed, but also look different from the ordinary natives, although they are also very dark, but from the facial features. It is very similar to the Song people, and it is not very old, and it looks like it is about twenty years old at most.
I saw that the envoy of this native came to the deck, and when he saw Zuo Siming and Wu Meng, he immediately stepped forward and saluted, and said in a very fluent Great Song official dialect: "He Nansheng, the envoy of the Saqi Kingdom, paid a visit to the two generals. I don't know which one is General Wu Meng? ”
"Huh? This general is Wu Meng, and you, the envoy, can speak Chinese? Wu Meng couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, the Saqi Kingdom is the Turen Kingdom behind Mashenggang, this kingdom was originally the largest force in the Strait of Malacca, but since the arrival of the Great Song Dynasty, he has defeated the alliance with other Turen Kingdoms several times, and as a result, the strength of the Saqi Kingdom has been greatly damaged, and now it can only be the second with the other two Turen Kingdoms, as for the first is naturally the Great Song Dynasty.
"General Wu. He's father is actually a Han Chinese, and his hometown was originally from Yanzhou, but later because he offended the local magnates, my father had to venture to the sea, and by chance he fell into exile in the Saqi Kingdom, and married He's mother, which took root here. He Nansheng introduced his life experience very generously, and his young face also had a somewhat calm smile.
"Oh? I didn't think that Lu Zhihe's envoy would be regarded as our Song people. It's just that I don't know why I want to serve the Sazi Kingdom? Wu Meng said with a pair of eyes when he heard this, in his opinion. This He Nansheng's father is a Song person, so he is naturally also a Song person, but as a Song person, he serves the enemy country, which is no different from betraying the country.
"Hehe, General Wu's words are wrong, although He has half of the blood of the Song people in his body. But I was born in Sazi and grew up in Saqi, and for He, Sazi is my home country, so He naturally wants to play for Saqi! He Nansheng defended himself calmly at this time.
"You ......" Wu Meng also met someone like He Nansheng for the first time, and he was angry for a while. However, at this time, Zuo Siming interrupted him and said, "Envoy He, who you are working for is your private matter, but what General Ben doesn't understand is why your warships of the Saqi Kingdom want to block the way of our fleet, do you really want to start a war with my Great Song Dynasty?" ”
"Not bad! It seems that you Sazi haven't remembered the lessons of the previous times, do you still want to fight again? Wu Meng finally came to his senses at this time, and he no longer bothered about He Nansheng's affairs, and began to question why the other party wanted to stop them?
I saw He Nansheng first glanced at Zuo Siming in some surprise, as far as he knew, the navy stationed in Nanyang Port was all under Wu Meng, but the general in front of him didn't seem to be under Wu Meng, could it be that the Great Song Dynasty had increased troops in Nanyang Port again?
Thinking of the above, He Nansheng couldn't help but feel a little heavy in his heart, but now was not the time to think about this, so he saw him speak again: "Qiqi two generals, Masheng Port has been handed over to our prince Liouye to take care of, it just so happens that today is the birthday of Prince Liouye, the prince likes to be lively the most, and it just so happened that I heard that there is a Tianzhu fleet passing through the strait, so I plan to invite them into the port to celebrate the birthday of my prince!" ”
Although He Nansheng said it seriously on the surface, he smiled bitterly in his heart, because this reason was not thought up by him, but by the prince of Liouye behind him, although he repeatedly said that it was impossible to convince the Great Song Dynasty with this reason, but the other party insisted on this, it is estimated that in Liouye's opinion, the face of this prince is not only effective in the Saqi Kingdom, but even the Song people have to give him some face.
"Haha~, this is a coincidence, today is also the birthday of General Ben, and I also want to invite the Tianzhu fleet to sit down, so I also ask the prince of Leouye to have a first come, or let the Tianzhu fleet go to our Nanyang Port first!" Wu Meng immediately laughed when he heard this.
For that Prince Leouye, Wu Meng has also heard that the other party is the youngest son of King Saqi, and he has been the most favored since he was a child, which has also led him to develop an arrogant character, thinking that there is no one in the world who is bigger than him except his father, and even his elder brothers are not in his eyes, some time ago Leouye was assigned to Masheng Port to manage the affairs here, and in less than a month, he has already made a lot of jokes, but he didn't expect the other party to provoke them so stupidly.
"It seems that General Wu doesn't plan to leave the Tianzhu fleet behind!" He Nansheng heard Wu Meng's obviously ridiculous words, and his face sank at the moment.
"Yes, it just so happens that you also help me pass a message to that Leouye, if you don't let it go within half an hour, any consequences will be borne by your Saqi Kingdom!" Wu Meng glared at him again, his face also showed a bit of murderous aura, in the face of the defeated subordinate of the Saqi Kingdom, he was qualified to say such things.
Seeing Wu Meng's attitude so tough. He Nansheng also knew that if he continued to talk about it, he would only bring humiliation on himself, in fact, from the very beginning, he persuaded Liouye not to make such a move that angered the Great Song Dynasty, and he did not agree to send an envoy to see Wu Meng, but unfortunately the other party did not listen to persuasion at all, he was a courtier of the Saqi Kingdom. Nor could he refuse Lyouye's request, so he could barely make a trip, and the result was not unexpected.
"Since this is the case, then He will retire, but He still hopes that General Wu can restrain one or two!" After He Nansheng finished speaking, he saluted again, and then retreated and left by boat.
"General Wu, what if you say it so deadly, what if the people of the Saqi Kingdom really don't retreat, do you really want to fight?" Zuo Siming looked at the back of He Nansheng leaving. At the moment, he was a little worried, not because he was afraid of war, but because he was worried about what would happen if there was a fight?
"Hehe, Brother Siming, don't worry, if it really starts, no one will blame the top, and maybe there will be a reward." Wu Meng smiled at this time. Looks like he knows the inside story.
Seeing Wu Meng's appearance, Zuo Siming immediately understood. He didn't ask the other party what he knew, because he believed that Wu Meng would definitely not deceive himself in this kind of matter, so he didn't say anything more, but ordered his soldiers to prepare for battle, and as soon as the time came, they would immediately launch an attack on the warships of the Saqi Kingdom.
He Nansheng returned to his own fleet in a small boat. Then board one of the largest warships, this ship is not a warship built by their Saqi Kingdom itself, but a warship converted from a merchant ship of the Great Song Dynasty, although the volume of this warship is still not comparable to the warship of the Great Song Dynasty, but it is among the warships of the Saqi Kingdom. It's already standing out from the crowd.
He Nansheng boarded the warship along the rope ladder, and as soon as he stepped on the deck, he heard a burst of laughter, and then saw a fat native boy playing with two native girls, without the slightest tension on the battlefield, which made him sigh, and then stepped forward and saluted: "Liouye, I didn't convince the general of the Song army, and the other party warned again, if they don't let them go after half an hour, they are likely to take force!" ”
"What? Didn't you tell them I was here? When the fat boy heard He Nansheng's words, he was the most favored son of King Sazi, Liouye, but it was his father who doted on him too much and raised him into a stupid character.
"Liouye, you must know that we are facing the Great Song Dynasty, not the small countries of Yasha and Penn Shun, our Saqi used to have no opponents in the Malacca area, but now that the Great Song is here, their territory is dozens of times that of our Saqi, and the number of people is more than 100 times, especially since they have defeated us several times before, so when facing the Great Song Dynasty, you must be in awe, not speak to them in a commanding tone!" Seeing Leouye's stupid performance, He Nansheng finally couldn't help but teach a lesson at this time, because he knew that if he let Liouye mess around like this, he would probably only cause a big war, and it was even likely that the Kingdom of Saqi would be destroyed.
"Humph! He Nansheng, who are you talking to, don't think that you are my aunt's son, you can put on a cousin and teach me, you are nothing in my eyes! When Leouye heard this, he was furious and said that no one had ever dared to speak to him so much when he was so big.
"I'm not talking to you as a cousin, but as a courtier of the Saqi Kingdom, I told you that although there are few warships in the Great Song Dynasty, they are equipped with ballistas and artillery, and they are extremely powerful, the first few times we were defeated by these two weapons, and now the other party has aimed the muzzle of the cannon at us, and the cannon may be fired at any time, if you don't get out of the way in time, then ten thousand cannons will be fired, and you and I will die here!" He Nansheng was furious again, and at this time he also let it go, angering Liouye that it was a big deal to lose his current position, which was better than dying here immediately.
In fact, He Nansheng also concealed one thing when he introduced himself to Wu Meng just now, that is, his father married the sister of the current king of the Saqi Kingdom, that is to say, he is Liouye's cousin, but his relationship with Liouye is not very good, but he is extremely talented, so this time he was sent by King Sazi to Masheng Port to assist Liouye, and it is estimated that King Sazi also knows that his son is impossible to manage such a large port.
"Dead ...... Dead here? When Liouye heard that he might lose his life, his face changed suddenly, he cherished his life very much, although he had some doubts in his heart about He Nansheng's words, but even if there was a one in ten thousand possibility, he didn't dare to take this risk.
Seeing Liouye's greedy and fearful appearance, He Nansheng sighed again, but he finally grasped the weakness of the other party, and said in a slow tone at the moment: "Liouye, when the rescue fleet of the Song army rushed over just now, you should also see that no one dared to stop our Saqi warships at all, firstly, our Saqi's warships were too weak, and they would fall apart if they were hit by the other party, and secondly, after the previous few fiascos, the soldiers in the navy had a fear of the warships of the Great Song Dynasty, and they did not even dare to fight with them at all, So if there is a real fight, I am afraid that these naval armies will disperse in a hurry, and if the Song army takes the opportunity to defeat Mashenggang again, then how should you explain to your father? ”
"Father...... My father spoils me the most, just a horse born port, my father will definitely not blame me for this! Liouye was still a little stubborn at this time, but in his words, he had already tacitly acquiesced that his side was not the opponent of the Great Song Dynasty.
"Well, even if your father doesn't blame you, but don't forget, your brothers have long been jealous of you, and if Mashenggang is lost in your hands, they will definitely attack you because of this, what should you do then?" At this time, He Nansheng once again helped Leoye analyze that if it weren't for the fact that this matter was related to his life and death, he wouldn't have bothered to say this to Liouye, a fool.
"This ......" Although Liouye is stupid, he is not hopelessly stupid, at least now he can still tell that what He Nansheng said is related to his own interests, so he also showed a contemplative expression for a while, although he looked down on his brothers, but he also knew that they had always been very hostile to him, if they let them seize their handles, they would only suffer in the end.
Seeing that it was rare for Liouye to move his pig brain, He Nansheng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but thinking of the current situation, he frowned again, even if this turmoil passed, but in the face of the increasingly powerful Great Song Dynasty, how should their Saqi Kingdom deal with it in the future? (To be continued.) )
