Chapter 230: The Completion of All Talents ([-])

There was a murderous atmosphere in the big tent of the Chinese army. The confidantes of the shopkeepers from all walks of life all drew their weapons and stared at each other. The scene was about to explode.

From here, we can see the fineness of the Zheng family members: when Zheng Zhilong was here, not to mention the Liangtai, it was the people inside and outside the Chinese army camp, all of whom were direct descendants of the Zheng family.The shopkeepers come here to discuss matters on weekdays, and all the attendants have to stay outside the account, and only the Zheng family is in the account.

And since Zheng Zhilong's accident, all the shopkeepers who came to the Zhongjun tent brought their subordinates, and even after entering the account, there were confidantes standing behind them.

"Bastard, they are all my brothers, what are you doing with your sword?" At this moment, beside Li Kuiqi, a middle-aged man who had been sitting still in a chair stood up.

This person is called Zhong Bin, one of the Eighteen Zhi, and has always been friends with Li Kuiqi.

"Put away the knives." Zhong Bin said in a deep voice after standing up.The next moment, the few confidants standing behind him slowly retracted their knives first, and the rest of them also put away their knives one after another seeing this situation.

"Brothers who eat in the same pot, why bother to make such a fuss? It's not a joke." Zhong Bin saw that the situation had eased, so he added another sentence to smooth things over.

However, the perpetrators did not appreciate it.After Liu Xiang sneered, he said to Zhong Bin, who seemed simple and honest: "See how long you can survive", and then walked out of the central army tent with his men.

After Liu Xiang went out, the subordinates who were waiting outside the tent quickly surrounded him and boarded a big bird boat at the pier, and walked away.

But inside the tent was quiet.

The brothers of the Zheng family naturally had nothing to say.The little abacus before had been seen through, and when the shopkeepers drew their knives in the tent for the first time, the Zheng family suddenly discovered that they, who were in charge of the grain table, had become a child holding money and a target of public criticism.

So shortly after Liu Xiang left, the Zheng family also left the Chinese military camp with cold and playful eyes.

After the two groups of people left, the tent seemed much more spacious, and the tense atmosphere calmed down.And until then, Li Kuiqi, who had been sitting silently on the chair, slowly got up and sat down on Zheng Zhifeng's chair opposite him.

After Li Kuiqi sat down, there was a smile on his wrinkled face first, then he turned sideways, and said to a chubby man in his 40s, who was dressed like a non-member, and said, "Brother Zhong Ji, you can't do it for children." what"

Hearing this, the fat man first nodded in agreement, and then sighed: "You are fierce, you are short-sighted, not as good as Brother Nai."

Chen Zhongji, a native of Haicheng, Zhangzhou, made his fortune in Hirado, Japan, and is one of the founders of the Yan Siqi Group.After Yan Siqi's accidental death that year, although Zheng Zhilong obtained a righteous name by marrying Yan Siqi's only daughter (Guo Xingye was born in Japan at this time), and thus took over Yan Siqi's power on the surface, Chen Zhongji still controlled most of the Yan Siqi's old subordinate.

In real history, Chen Zhongji, who was not very interested in Zhao'an, would soon be killed by Zheng Zhilong after Zhao'an.

But in the plane of Transmigration, things are reversed: Chen Zhongji not only frees himself, but also has a common language with Li Kuiqi, who also advocates continuing to be a pirate.This was also one of the reasons why the brothers of the Zheng family left in a hurry: Chen Zhongji, who should theoretically belong to the Zheng family's forces, did not show the slightest trace of the Zheng family's flavor just now, which made several young people suddenly terrified.

From Chen Zhongji, we can get a glimpse of Zheng Zhilong's tightrope walking in history: no one is really with him.But Brother Zhilong has the ability to gather these seven-legged things together, use their lives to make a movie with the government, and then use the power of the government to kill the old brothers one by one. The purpose is clear, the means are superb, step by step Shocking, has to be admirable.

When Li Kuiqi and Chen Zhongji started whispering with smiles on their faces, Zhong Bin also turned around and waved to the group of shopkeepers in the corner: "Dewei, come and talk."

Du Dewei knew that the field had turned into a leadership interview mode, so he and Hu Ba beside him exchanged glances, a smile appeared on his face, and he walked all the way to Zhong Bin's side with fists in his arms: "Master Zhong, Haven't seen you in days."

The next moment, Zhong Bin pressed him affectionately on the chair next to him: "Dewei, this is the end of the matter, I'm afraid the Zheng family will take the blame. You are a bright-eyed person, so I won't say much."

At this time, the real behind-the-scenes man who dragged the gang together finally revealed his true colors.who?The combination of Li Kuiqi + Zhong Bin.

In terms of leadership alone, Li Kuiqi's stats are quite high.In history, after his rebellion, he was able to win over most of the people and drive away Zheng Zhilong, which is a clear proof.However, like most mediocre pirate leaders, he has a flaw: lack of strategic vision.

Facts have proved that only Zhaoan is the only way out.

Li Kuiqi, who is obsessed with being a liberal leader, has actually been taking advantage of the silence of the whole group these days to secretly do the work of several other big hills, including Chen Zhongji.

Today, after everyone turned their faces completely, although it will be difficult to use the public funds in Liangtai to buy time for themselves in the next step, Li Kuiqi's combination already knows it well at this time.

That's why the scene just now happened: the two had already begun to openly win over people, Li Kuiqi was in charge of attracting Dashantou, and Zhong Bin was in charge of Du Dewei and other small shopkeepers.

The way to win over is very simple, you just need to sing: "Forgive me for being unruly, indulgent and loving freedom in this life". People who don't want to be dogs to the government will naturally gather here.

After Du Dewei chatted cordially with Zhong Bin, Zhong Da's shopkeeper, he stepped aside: There is still a line behind, so you can't stop others from making progress, can you?
Ever since, Du Dewei quietly retreated to the corner again, and when Hu Ba and Zhong Bin finished speaking, they walked out of the tent together with a few shopkeepers.

"Treasurer Du, you must have made a decision, right?"

As soon as several shopkeepers with the same illness came out of the big tent, one of the little bosses named Cao Hu asked Du Dewei about the market.

Cao Hu is a small leader with only 10 broken ships under his command.This person has a square head and big ears, and looks very festive and honest from his face.

Du Dewei shuddered when he heard the sound.What is this place?This is the entrance of the Chinese army tent!The people standing on both sides of the road are all followers of big bosses from all walks of life. Talking nonsense will kill people!
After cursing from the bottom of his heart that Cao Hu, who seemed simple and honest, would die soon, Du Dewei raised his head and laughed loudly: "I think Mr. Zhong is right. People from the rivers and lakes should drink and eat meat freely to be serious!"

After Cao Hu listened to it, he laughed and said nothing.After that, the group of people silently passed through a large number of Li Kuiqi and Zhong Bin's men, boarded the small boat at the dock, said goodbye, and parted ways.

The followers of Du Dewei and Hu Ba got together.When the two returned to the outer berth more than three miles away from the Zhongzuo Wharf, they gathered all their subordinates without saying a word, sharpened their knives and guns, and entered the overall security mode.

The little person who lives in the cracks every day has a very accurate premonition of danger: Not long after the two returned, there was a loud shout of killing from the direction of Liangtai.Accompanied by the sound of killing, a large number of pirates stationed in the core area of ​​the dock began to kill each other, and the scene was in chaos.

Seeing such a hot scene from afar, the thin and thin Du and Hu couldn't care less about who was cutting whom, so they hurriedly ordered to set sail and leave first.

Zhongzuo Institute is located in the south corner of Xiamen.After the bosses started the battle, Du and Hu led a total of 40 ships under their command, more than half of which were fishing boats, and began to move towards the sea off Xiamen.

Before it was too late, when the fleet circled the cape in the lower right corner of Xiamen, Du Hu and his wife breathed a sigh of relief: the current position is relatively safe, and the fleet has enough waterways for them to go north, south or east. choose.

Du Dewei, who was still in shock, immediately sent a small boat back to investigate.

However, before the small boat came back, a large number of sea boats rushed out from the direction of the center left.There are more than 300 large ships in this group of people, and there are no small ships.

Seeing the mighty fleet heading south on the ocean in the distance, Hu Ba stood at the bow and said with certainty: "There is no need to guess, it must be the people of Manager Liu."

Du Dewei sighed: "Oh, it's nothing to be happy in the end, Zheng Dalong's death is too untimely."

Hu Ba also sighed with the friend beside him who wanted to recruit safety, and then the two of them waited silently at the bow of the boat for news.

At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, another large group of people rushed out from the direction of the center and left.In terms of number, the fleet this time is nearly half smaller than the size of Liu Xiang's gang, and the identity is easy to confirm-the Zheng family went north along Xiamen Island to return to the old nest in Weitouwan, and the fleet started from Du Dewei. Passing by in front of them, the flag is clearly visible.

At around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, the two small boats sent out came back one after another.

The information brought back by the spies and the two people's guesses were not very different: first, Liu Xiang's gang began to attack the Liangtai, and fought with the Zheng family who guarded the Liangtai.Then the Zheng family started to retreat, and when Liu Xiang's men were robbing Ku Yin, Li Kuiqi and Zhong Bin's men rushed over again.

So Liu Xiang, who was attacked on both sides, resisted a few times, then retreated to the front line, boarded a boat with some money and went straight back to Guangdong.After Liu Xiang left, the Zheng family brothers had a few words with the confronting Li Kuiqi, boarded the boat with troops and some silver, and went straight back to their hometown in Anping.

Having said this, the spies revealed another piece of news: Li Kuiqi, the treasurer of the Zhongzuo Institute, has now taken the top spot.Shopkeeper Li Da is gathering soldiers and horses, and has sent people around to spread the word, demanding that the small group of people who have run away go back to "discuss major issues" and "there will be no deduction of food."

When Hu Ba heard this, he let out a sigh of relief, and turned to look at Du Dewei beside him: "How about it, are you going back or not?"

Du Dewei frowned, looked at the choppy ocean, and said slowly: "Don't worry, you and my brother will always have a place to go."
