Chapter 725: Blackmailing Li Jiancheng

"Damn, how come it's a cargo ship, not our Datang warship?" When he saw the cargo ship, Guo Songling's heart tightened, and he almost pulled over.

This one fell, I thought it was a hope to save my life, but now it seems that it is a burden at all, and it's over, even the ship has been affected by them!

"Shopkeeper, what should we do next? Shall we lean over and take a look? ”

Li Fu, the first mate on the ship, was shirtless and had obvious worry on his face.

"What are you doing in the past?" Guo Songling cried with a sad face and said, "Looking at their shipping route, it should be deliberately chosen to bypass the Twin Straits to avoid encountering pirates." It's good now, the pirates have been lured out by us, and I guess they have the heart to kill us now! ”

"But the shopkeeper, one more person means more strength, right?" Li Fu shook his head and said, "Anyway, things are already like this, how bad can it be?"

"I think Brother Li is right!" Wang Wei strolled to Guo Songling's side and said, "Lean over, maybe their combat power is stronger than ours?"

"Wang Wei, you are not qualified to speak, the boat belongs to Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu can go how he says!" Guo Songling couldn't listen to Wang Wei's words at all, he continued: "Li Fu, I now order you to sail in the opposite direction of that cargo ship, as for whether those pirates will let that ship go, you can only resign yourself to fate!"

"Yes!"

Li Fu was extremely reluctant in his heart, but he couldn't help it, he couldn't resist, right?

……

On the old cargo ship, Chen Hua and the hundred or so soldiers in strong suits on his ship all stood on the deck, watching the merchant ships and pirates chasing each other.

"Admiral, this time it's troublesome, we really let us run into pirates!" Chen Zhong's face was indescribably bitter.

"What about trouble? I can only say that our luck is not good! "Compared with Chen Zhong, Chen Hua is much calmer now, after all, he has been a commander for so many years. is also a person who has seen a big scene, how can he be scared half to death because of this incident.

"Huh? Admiral, look at that ship, how did it go in the opposite direction from us? ”

Suddenly, Li Fu pointed ahead and screamed, obviously in disbelief.

Chen Hua just glanced at the ship and said, "They still have some conscience, but those pirates don't want to let boiled ducks fly, they think they are kind, but unfortunately they still do bad things!"

Really. Just as Chen Hua said, the seventeen pirate ships, after the two merchant ships turned their heads, immediately divided into two teams, one of which had a total of twelve ships to continue to pursue the two lucky ships, while the second team of the remaining five pirate ships chose to run to the Chen Hua cargo ships.

……

"Hahaha, I just wanted to rob those two merchant ships, but I didn't expect there to be an unexpected gain!"

Rush to the deck of one of the pirate ships at the front. A young man with a tiger's back and a long scar on his face said with a laugh.

"Big big, big brother...... This. This time, we're going to make a fortune! ”

A young man who is so thin that he has a fight with a hemp pole, and the whole person presents a sense of morbidity. He said to the scar-faced pirate with a smirk.

"Smack!"

The scar-faced pirate leader slapped the back of the skinny hemp rod on the back of the head and said, "You don't stutter when you mention money, I think your kid is comparable to the golden toad?"

"Hey, hey, hey. Jin Jin, Jin Toad's boy, yes, yes, scrooge! I, I, I'm a hemp pole, if I have it, I will spend it if I have money! ”

The thin hemp pole young man laughed, how obscene it would be. It's as obscene as it gets. Trifling.

"You kid, sooner or later you will die on a woman's belly!" The scar-faced pirate scolded with a smile and said, "Little ones, rush to Lao Tzu, none of these three ships are allowed to let me go!"

"Roar!"

"Rush, we can't let these guys run away!"

With the order of the Scarface Pirate, both fleets began to row their ships like crazy, and it was strange that the wooden ships had the speed of a steamboat.

"Row!"

Regardless of whether it was Chen Hua or Guo Songling, they were all a little anxious, and hurriedly beckoned their subordinates to row hard.

It's a pity that in the face of these vicious pirates, they didn't even have the slightest chance to escape, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the aging cargo ship and Guo Songling's merchant ship were surrounded almost at the same time.

"Hahaha, run? You're running for me? ”

The scar-faced pirate had an arrogant look on his face, looking at him, he looked like a mountain king, "Little ones, give it to Lao Tzu, remember, you must keep all of them alive, and living eloquence is worth it!" ”

"Oooo

With the Scarface Pirate's order, all the pirates under him became crazy, and one by one they wildly threw out their flying claws and landed firmly on the cargo ship and merchant ship.

After that, things were much simpler, nothing more than that the two ships were all robbed by pirates, and more than 300 people, including Chen Hua and Guo Songling, all became pirates' meat tickets.

……

Three days later, Okinawa Oshima Hiroyo Castle.

Li Jiancheng and Li Yuanba have been living in the City Lord's Mansion for three days, during which the City Lord Yao Hesheng returned to the city and gave a detailed introduction to the current situation in Guangyang City and Li Jiancheng and the brothers.

In the early morning of this day, as soon as Li Yuanba got up, a servant in the palace called him to the front hall, saying that he had something to discuss.

"Big brother, why are you in such a hurry to call me over? Are you going back to Huayang City? ”

Before he entered the front hall, Li Yuanba shouted loudly.

At this moment, the front hall of the City Lord's Mansion was already full of people, among which Li Fazhong, Yao Hesheng and Hua Qing who were sitting in the front were in the second place, followed by the military and political officials of Guangyang City.

"Yuanba, something big happened this time!" Li Jiancheng's face is very dark now, so black that he can drip water.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Yuanba saw that something was wrong, and walked to Li Jiancheng's side and asked.

"Admiral Chen Hua of Guangyang has been robbed by the pirates of Twin Gorges!" Li Jiancheng said as he threw out a yellow letter and said, "Now that people have sent all the blackmail letters, I called you here today to see if you have any ideas!"

Li Yuanba didn't speak, but picked up the letter from the table and read it, to the effect that your people are now in Lao Tzu's hands, if you want your people to live, then prepare gold and silver, grain and grass, cloth, a total of 300,000 taels of gold, and send someone to the twin islands.

Something equivalent to 300,000 taels of gold, that is not a small amount, although money is nothing in Li Jiancheng's eyes, but it is enough for him to feel distressed for a while. (To be continued.) )
