Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 216 Digging a Pit

On the fifth day when the people besieged Cao Guogong Xingyuan, Cao Guogong Li Jinglong ordered, "Stop confiscating sea ships, and return all confiscated sea ships. The officials were relieved, the officers and soldiers of the guard were relieved, and Tie Xuan and Tie Dingshi were troubled.

He felt that this was Li Jinglong's compromise and concession to the local forces in Zhejiang and Fujian, at the cost of sacrificing the prestige and interests of the court, in exchange for the support of the local government, army, and people in Xi and Fujian for his suppression of bandits, so he left Hangzhou in a rage. When Wei rushed back, he didn't care that Li Jinglong was the first-rank prince, the prince, and the governor of the Zuo Army. He immediately put on a dark face, and argued with Li Jinglong with his stern and selfless demeanor.

Li Jinglong knew he was in the wrong, and responded with a smiley face at the beginning, but Tie Xuan insisted on arguing with reason, and only wanted Li Jinglong to strictly implement the Eight Strategies of Jinghai again, and vowed not to give up until he achieved his goal.Li Jinglong was completely arguing from Cao Guogong's nap time to the prince and Taifu's dinner time.

"Fork it out! Fork him out! This ignorant disgust!"

Li Jinglong flicked his sleeve viciously, and cursed at the back of Tie Xuan who was forced out with a livid face.

"My lord, you can be angry with such a fool. Come on, my lord, hurry up and have a sip of tea to calm down."

"Grandpa, please sit down, and I will tap your legs."

Two beautiful little girls, Baoqin and Chess, hurried over, talking coquettishly, with a smile on their face, and pressed Li Jinglong on the chair, one knelt down to beat his legs, and the other picked up a cup. Blowing with a small mouth, feeding him tea.

Li Jinglong closed his eyes comfortably and thought beautifully: "Now the morale of the army has stabilized. After my rectification, the morale has also improved. I will go to sea to fight in the next day. When the time comes, I will wipe out the Chumi gang. It is best to capture Chen Zuyi, who was rewarded by the emperor, alive. On the way back, I will destroy the Shuangyu gang, Jingqing Donghai, and return to the capital with the prestige of suppressing the bandits. Well, the emperor thinks highly of me, and the grandson of the emperor and I have always been friends with this leader of the military officials. Maybe he will move from the Zhongshan Palace to my Duke Cao's.

Li Jinglong smiled beautifully and...

Soon, Zhang, Quan, Funing and other Chi water divisions received Li Jinglong's military orders and went to sea one after another to block private merchant ships going south and north, and captured three large ships from the north and the south, two of which were merchant ships of Chen Zuyi. The cargo of these two ships It's more complicated, because Chen Zuyi only does business without capital, leaving the port with empty ships, going all the way to rob, grab as many goods as Shuangyu sells, and then rob them all the way back, so the types of goods are complicated.

The other large ship was a Fuzhou smuggling merchant ship, which was full of ordinary raw silk. The navy also captured the entire escort team led by Japanese ronin Koshiro and Aoki Mio, as well as the Fuzhou smuggler Lin Asi.

Immediately afterwards, Li Jinglong personally commanded the officers and soldiers of the Hangzhou Wei Navy Division, sent troops to Shuangyu Island, and Shuangyu Island gathered troops to guard the two exits of the north and the south. They confronted the officers and soldiers for three days and three nights. The wind and waves were getting bigger and bigger, and Li Jinglong was worried that a tsunami would swallow up his alchemist, so he had to withdraw his troops and return to Hangzhou Bay.

At the southern foot of Shuangyu Island, Xu Hu, the leader, and Lei Xiaoxi, the second leader, patrolled a messy defensive position, and the dead and wounded men were retreating to the inner island exhaustedly supported by others.

Lei Xiaoxi said with a serious face: "The officers and soldiers are coming aggressively. Fortunately, the torrential rain last night, otherwise, it is hard to say whether we can hold Shuangyu Island."

Xu Hu said: "It's not a problem for us to defend Shuangyu with only officers and soldiers. What I worry about is

He looked up to the northeast, and said solemnly: "I'm worried that the Chumi gang will take advantage of the fire to loot, and the officers and soldiers will leave, and they will come. Repeatedly, I, Shuangyu Island, can't stand their battle."

Lei Xiaoxi hummed without speaking.

Xu Hu walked silently for a while, then stopped and said, "Second brother, go to Nanji Island and meet Xiao Chu."

Lei Xiaoxi was taken aback, and asked, "What did you see him for?"

Xu Hu said: "Negotiate with them and seek refuge with Chen Zuyi."

Lei Xiaoxi's eyes flashed: "Master, are you safe?"

"Not bad!"

Lei Xiaoxi looked around and suddenly said, "What about A-mei, why haven't I seen her?"

Xu Hu said indifferently: "The government has suddenly strengthened the coastal defense. We have not had time to recover a lot of money. I asked my sister to go to the other side to collect the money. In addition, I will buy some rice on the way to prepare for emergencies. You don't have to worry about her." , as long as I agree, she will not object."

Lei Xiaoxi laughed and said: "That's right, on this island, A-mei only obeys the head of the family, even if she refuses to accept it, there is nothing she can do.

Okay, I'll go to sea in a while, to Nanji Island, what conditions do we have? "

Xu Hu said: "You have met Xiao Chu, make an appointment with him. I will designate another isolated island as the location. At that time, we will each send three three-masted ships to meet and negotiate on the island."

Lei Xiaoxi showed a slightly displeased expression, and reluctantly responded: "Okay, I'll go get ready."

After Lei Xiaoxi's boat went out to sea, Xu Hu appeared in the caves of Guibei Cliff. Most of the caves on this mountain are deep and long. The cave on Guibei Cliff is even more secretive. It is under a protruding cliff, more than two feet high from the top of the cliff, and further down is a sharp reef tens of feet below. The tide is surging on the reef. No physiology.

However, they went down to the cave, which was not very big, but the inside was quite spacious, about the size of a room and a half. So since they discovered this cave when they were young, Xu Hu and Su Ying had kept this secret hidden. As a secret place.

"The big one."

Su Ying took the hand and pulled Xu Hu into the cave: "How about it, can the second brother Lei be able to gather?"

Xu Hu shook his head and said with a serious expression: "I don't know yet, I don't want him to really take advantage of others. After all, we have been brothers for many years. Besides, he is the strongest in our Shuangyu Island. If he really has an affair, Even if we realize it in time..."

Speaking of this, Xu Hu changed the subject when he saw Xia Xun coming up to him: "I have asked the second master to see Xiao Chu, and when he brings back the news, he will negotiate with Xiao Chu, you can live here with peace of mind , Three meals a day will be brought to you by A-Mei's confidantes, don't worry, this is A-Mei's mountain, you will be absolutely safe living here, and when I have a letter from here, you will get in touch with Li Jinglong. "

Xia Xun nodded, and Xu Hu said worriedly: "Are you sure he won't cross the river and tear down the bridge?"

Xia Xun smiled and said: "I'm not sure that Li Jinglong won't cross the river and demolish the bridge, but according to our plan, he doesn't have time to do anything else. If you can only choose one of Shuangyu Island and Chen Zuyi, you say he will choose and never give it to him." What about Shuangyu Island, which is the icing on the cake, or Chen Zuyi, who is worth 50 yuan from Baidu Jinyi Night Travel?"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Xu Hu and the Chumi Gang started a difficult negotiation. The condition Xu Hu proposed was that he could agree to join the gang, and that he could give up Shuangyu Island as an outpost for Sea King Chen Zuyi to garrison troops and grain. He and his family must be properly resettled. The place he wants is Chenqian Island, which is the territory of the Chumi Gang.

At that time, the trade with Daming was the largest in maritime trade, but Japan was also an important trading partner. Merchant ships from Nanyang would dock at Shuangyu to sell Nanyang spices, gems and other commodities, and buy raw silk, porcelain, and silk. Wait, and then transfer to Japan via Chen Qiandao, and trade again. After selling some of the goods, they can exchange for some platinum, or buy Japanese specialties such as ware, and then go straight back to Nanyang.

According to this route, Chenqian Island is a road to making money second only to Shuangyu Island in the East China Sea. Although the Chumi Gang mainly does business without capital, they are unwilling to give up this road to making money, so naturally they will not agree.After negotiating for half a month, Nanyang Chen Zuyi couldn't hold back anymore, and sent his new dog-headed military advisor, Ling Potian. Under Ling Potian's mediation, the Chumi Gang reluctantly agreed to Xu Hu's conditions.Baidu Jinyi Night Walk debut

Xu Hu took Lei Xiaoxi as his outpost and started the great migration. The women, children, old and young brought food, grass and soft goods to move first, and first settled down on Chenqian Island. Some people, because both the Chumi Gang and Chen Zuyi's people are not familiar with the waters of Shuangyu and the large and small buildings and caves on the island. Now that Xu Hu has joined the group, they are like headless chickens. Much better to explore.Those who stayed behind had to wait for the third master, Su Ying, to return from the shore, and then retreat together with them.

Although Chen Qiandao is the territory of the Chumi Gang, the foundation of the Chumi Gang is not in Chen Qianshan, but in Nanlu Island.The price they paid for giving up Chen Qianshan was Ling Potian's promise that they would be in charge of Shuangyu Island, and this land of wealth fell into their hands. Although Chen Zuyi himself would occupy more than half of it, the oil and water were still no better than Chen Qiandao Small, especially the Chumi Gang is mainly engaged in no-capital business. This place is the closest to the Daming land, and they can go ashore at any time to grab money, food, and women, so the people of the Chumi Gang are very excited.

In order to gain an advantage on Shuangyu Island, when Baidu Jinyi Night Travel started Xu Hu led a large force of Shuangyu bandits to switch defenses with them and transferred to Chenqian Island, "Bu Chu and Xiaomi couldn't wait to lead their elite troops. We have arrived at Shuangyu Island. Seeing this situation, Ling Potian didn't dare to be negligent. He tried his best to fight for territory and interests for Chen Zuyi, and at the same time sent someone to notify Chen Zuyi urgently.

At the beginning, the couple thieves, who were ungrateful for profit, were obviously obedient, but secretly ordered their own people to try to seize as many houses and caves as possible to facilitate the pier to go to sea. But soon Li Jinglong sent navy again to attack Shuangyu Island. The Chumi Gang, who were neither familiar nor fully prepared in terms of defense, suffered a big loss. Although they kept Shuangyu Island, they suffered heavy casualties. Reluctantly give up some land, waiting for Chen Zuyi to send someone to take over.

When Chen Zuyi received the news, he personally led ten warships and ran from Manlajia to Shuangyu Island in the East China Sea to inspect his territory with great interest. A trap was quietly dug...
