Agents of the Republic of China

Lin Xiaotang stood up and buttoned his coat. He knew from the Dragon King's expression that the big deal was settled. Before he came, he knew that the Dragon King would not be able to resist this temptation.

The Dragon King's breath was a little short, and he didn't know what to say at this time. It was every sea person's lifelong dream to be able to go ashore. He was a little uncertain that happiness would come so suddenly, but he understood that Du Yuesheng kept his promise, The so-called "gossip" is his most precious promise.

Lord Long stood up, with a slightly unnatural expression on his face, "Since Mr. Du has opened his mouth, I...".

Before he finished speaking, one of his subordinates staggered in and shouted in panic, "Master, it's bad, three anti-smuggling boats are forcing us over!"

The Dragon King's words were interrupted by someone, and he was furious immediately. He slapped the table and said, "Why are the anti-smuggling boats panicking? Isn't the money we pay every year enough to send them off?"

"It's not right, this time they are fully armed, and the ship is fully equipped with iron armor. They keep coming over, even ignoring our semaphore and signal lights!"

The Dragon King was taken aback, and hurriedly put on his coat, ran to the deck with his sister and a group of subordinates, and Lin Xiaotang and the other three followed.

The fog is much lighter than before, and the field of vision is much wider. You can clearly see that three sailboats with anti-smuggling signs are approaching rapidly one sea mile away. The so-called anti-smuggling boats are actually lightly armed sailboats with a displacement of two Ten to thirty tons, although it is useless in naval battles, it is more than enough to deal with water thieves and pirates.The Nationalist Government’s navy was completely lost during the Songhu Anti-Japanese War. After the Japanese army occupied Shanghai, the sea area of ​​Shanghai was handed over to the Japanese Navy’s Pacific Fleet for management. At this time, there were still some ships of the British, American and French navies stationed in Shanghai. Chaos, which is why pirates and water thieves such as Dragon King are rampant.

The Dragon King took the binoculars and took a closer look, with a heavy expression on his face, "These bastards have become more courageous? How dare they come to patrol this sea area."

Sister Dragon King took over the conversation, "Brother, something is really wrong. Today the ship is covered with a layer of iron armor. It looks like it is ready to attack. Although it can't stop the shells, the bullets can't hit them!"

As soon as the words fell, there was a "boom" on the anti-smuggling boat opposite, and then a shell fell not far in front of the Dragon King's ship, causing waves five or six meters high. wet.Immediately the other party called the semaphore, "Stop the ship for inspection."The Dragon King and his subordinates cursed loudly.

In a short while, three heavily armed anti-smuggling sailboats surrounded Lin Xiaotang and the three ships of Dragon King, but it was obvious that only his ship was capable of fighting on Dragon King's side, and the other one and Lin Xiaotang's were just two fishing boats , the strong and the weak will be judged.

The three anti-smuggling boats were obviously very targeted, throwing hooks one after another, and firmly tied the Dragon King's boat and the anti-smuggling boat together. There were more than ten men in full armor and wearing black uniforms on each boat. The man who turned out to be the leader slowly walked onto the deck, facing the Dragon King and others across the boat.

The muscles on Dragon King's face twitched, "Captain Zhang, why are you interested in visiting my place today?"

Captain Zhang smiled, "Boss Zhang Xiaolin told us to invite you ashore, but it's not easy to wait for your Dragon King's arrival. You old man has always guarded his old nest and refused to show his face. Our brothers thought that we didn't have the strength to invite you out, so we had to wait for the rabbit. Already!"

The Dragon King gritted his teeth, reached out and took out the pistol, and pressed it directly on Lin Xiaotang's temple, "You fucking betrayed me!"

Huoyan and Ma Qixiang also took out their guns to confront the Dragon King's men.

With a calm expression, Lin Xiaotang lit a cigarette against the sea breeze, "Please, they are here for you."

The eyes of the man wearing glasses behind the Dragon King flashed, and while everyone was drawing their guns, he quietly approached the Dragon King.

Lin Xiaotang turned his head, and immediately caught the approaching dangerous aura in the air. He suddenly retreated and swept towards the Dragon King. The Dragon King was suddenly attacked, his hand tilted, and his fingers pulled the trigger involuntarily. Dodged a knife stabbed by the man with eyes behind him.

Lin Xiaotang almost turned around, and the bullet flew past his shoulder, drawing a bloodstain.

The man with glasses missed the shot, and then stabbed at the Dragon King again. At this moment, the sister of the Dragon King turned around and hit the man with glasses accurately on the wrist. At the same time shouted: "Hands!"

The man with glasses quickly retreated to the rear deck with a few people.

At this time, the people on the anti-smuggling boat that was facing the Dragon King's boat opened fire together at Captain Zhang's order. Dragon King's men were shot one after another, and some of them fell straight into the sea.

The Dragon King also understood at this time, while beckoning his subordinates to fight back, he retreated into the cabin with his sister, Lin Xiaotang and others. Except for the man with glasses, the three men in gray cloth military uniform and the remaining subordinates tried their best to protect the Dragon King and others.

As soon as everyone retreated into the cabin, the subordinates outside could no longer resist. The hull of the anti-smuggling boat was nearly one meter higher than the boat of the Dragon King. The other party was shooting condescendingly. The casualties were heavy.

A man in a gray cloth military uniform was shot twice, but he still tried his best to pull down the hatch. It turned out that the hatch was a three-inch-thick steel plate. Just as the man lowered the hatch, he was knocked down by a rain of bullets. Before dying, he shouted, "The head of the family, avenge us!" At this point, there was no sound outside.

The Dragon King's eyes were about to burst, and he raised his gun with both hands to go out desperately, but was hugged tightly by his sister and the only three remaining subordinates, "Brother, the head of the family, keep the green hill here!"

Lin Xiaotang and the others checked the weapons in their hands. Fortunately, when they came, just in case, they brought a lot of bullets, enough to last for a while.

The Dragon King gradually calmed down, and looked at Lin Xiaotang apologetically, "Brother, I'm sorry, is your injury okay?"

Lin Xiaotang smiled, "Scratches, it's okay."

On the deck came the sound of boarding footsteps, followed by the sound of a corpse falling into the water. Captain Zhang shouted outside: "Boss Long, if you are sensible, come out and surrender quickly. Boss Zhang has no intention of killing you. As long as you promise to cooperate with us , let's just pretend that nothing happened, this sea route is still your territory, how about it?"

The man with glasses was slightly astonished, approached Captain Zhang, and whispered: "Captain Zhang, what Boss Zhang meant was to kill everything. This time, that kid surnamed Lin happened to be here too. Once we bombarded him, we would be considered a stand-off." Two great achievements!

Captain Zhang rolled his eyes at him, "Bai San, please understand, I am in charge here, I don't need you to direct what I want to do, you are just a white-eyed wolf bought by Boss Zhang, don't point fingers in front of me! "

Bai San's face darkened, and he closed his mouth.

Captain Zhang's move was out of selfishness. There are rumors in the world that the Dragon King has been on the sea for 20 years, and his wealth is as rich as an enemy. It would be too uneconomical to kill him like this. If the old man takes it out, he can make a fortune himself.

"I'll give you 10 minutes to think about it. When the time is up, I'll bombard the ship. Think it over yourself!"

Listening to Captain Zhang's shout outside, the veins on the Dragon King's forehead stood out, and his fists were clenched.He turned his head to look at his sister beside him, his eyes softened, "Yulan, I didn't expect that Bai San, who has been with me for so many years, would betray me. It seems that today is my deadline. You are the best at swimming, so take them with you." Let's go through the secret door, you three, it depends on your luck whether you can get out!"

Yulan's voice was choked with sobs, "No, bro, I'll be with you, we depend on each other for life, without you, what's the point of my life!"

Just as the Dragon King was about to persuade, Lin Xiaotang's eyes lit up, "The secret door? Where is it?"

The Dragon King pointed to the underside of the mahogany table, "It's there, but it can only lead to the sea water. Those who are particularly good at water may have a chance of survival."

Lin Xiaotang nodded, looked at Huoyan, and Huoyan smiled, "Seventh Brother, let me come, I trained in the Marine Corps of the US Army for a year, so I don't know how to swim!"

Yulan squinted at him, "I'm not afraid to slap my tongue when I'm bragging!"

Huoyan smiled foolishly and said nothing.

Lin Xiaotang patted the back of the Dragon King's hand, "Master Long, we are all cornered, so why not take a big bet, how about it?"

The Dragon King opened his eyes wide, "What do you mean?"

Everyone worked together to lift the wooden board under the mahogany table, and there was the cabin on the bottom floor. There was a separate partition space under the cabin on the bottom floor, and the inside was connected to the sea. It seemed that this was also the escape route reserved by the Dragon King.

Everyone left Ma Qixiang and the three brothers of the Dragon King to guard the cabin to attract attention from the outside.The Dragon King brothers and sisters are proficient in water skills and know how to create structures, so they formed two teams with Lin Xiaotang and Huoyan respectively, opened the floor, and got into the seawater in the interlayer.

The sea water in winter was icy cold, and the Dragon King brothers and sisters didn't feel anything, but Lin Xiaotang and Huoyan only got into the water after moving for a minute.

Yulan took off her jacket, revealing her exquisite figure covered by tight clothes. Seeing Huoyan's slightly eager eyes, she couldn't help but give him a blank look, "Take it easy, say hello if you can't hold on, don't pull my hind legs !"

Huo Yan blushed, and then giggled.

Huoyan took out a few German-made grenades and gave two to Lin Xiaotang, "Seventh brother, take it, this is a good thing, absolutely waterproof!"

Drilling out from the bottom of the cabin, the four of them split into two directions and quietly approached the two anti-smuggling boats.

In order not to be noticed, Lin Xiaotang and Dragon King did not dare to take a breath, and could only slide their hands and feet slowly in the deep water.

At the bottom of the anti-smuggling boat, the Dragon King pointed towards the stern of the boat. Lin Xiaotang understood and followed closely.

When they got to the stern, the two quietly emerged from the water. Lin Xiaotang felt that his lungs were about to explode.

The two exchanged glances, then slowly swam to both sides of the ship, counted five silently in their hearts, at the same time pulled off the safety ring of the grenade in their hands, and threw it directly onto the anti-smuggling boat.
