The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 193 Provocation
The news that Liu Wei frequently sent people to contact the fisherman quickly spread to Jinhua Island and Feiyu Island. Luo Jinhua and Qin Feiyu got together after hearing the news.

After the meeting, the two each sent a hundred pirates to attack the seaside residents.

Their meaning is very clear, as long as those fishermen don't make trouble for them, they will never bother those fishermen, but if those fishermen dare to partner with Liu Wei to make trouble for them, then don't blame them for being rude.

Of course, in addition to burning the seat, they also took some of the fisherman's family members as hostages.

With those hostages, even if those fishermen hated them, for the safety of their family, would they still dare to be with Liu Wei?

This was a provocation by the pirates. Although there were no casualties, it made the fishermen feel deep fear.

And right after this incident happened, those fishermen came to the government office to report the case. They asked Liu Wei to stop attacking the pirates on Jinhua Island and Feiyu Island, for the safety of their families.

Fishermen are worried about their families, and they make reasonable demands.

After hearing this, Zhuge Pi frowned slightly. He felt that those pirates were so hateful that they used the families of these fishermen to threaten those fishermen, and then let these fishermen threaten their government offices. If they insisted on attacking pirates, wouldn't it be Want to lose popular support?

In this world, the most fickle thing is the people's hearts, because the people are very ordinary people, if you treat them well, you will win their hearts, if you treat them badly, you will lose their hearts, and they will treat you well Bad and bad are extremely sensitive.

Facing the demands of these fishermen, Liu Wei could not refuse.

Zhugepi knew that Liu Wei couldn't refuse, but he also thought that Liu Wei couldn't refuse. If he refused, wouldn't he be able to destroy those pirates?If those pirates cannot be wiped out, how will these fishermen survive?

Zhuge Pi felt that Liu Wei couldn't speak, so before Liu Wei could speak, he stood up first and said: "I can understand everyone's feelings, but please understand us a lot. If the pirates are not destroyed, how will everyone go to sea and survive? ?”

After Zhuge Pi finished speaking, he paused for a while, while the fishermen hesitated. If Liu Wei really went to attack those pirates, their family members' lives would be in danger, but if they didn't attack those pirates, they would have no How to earn money to survive?

Now they must make a choice, whether to choose the safety of their families or their right to survive.

Those fishermen looked at each other, they couldn't make up their minds, but Zhugepi felt relieved, as long as these fishermen hesitated, he was sure to persuade them to agree to go to sea to fight pirates, but just when Zhugepi was about to say a few more words, Liu Wei He suddenly said: "Don't worry, everyone, since you are the citizens of the Great Song Dynasty, as the prefect of King Xing's Mansion, I have the responsibility to protect your lives and property. Your family and I will find a way to rescue you. I don't want to attack those pirates, and I agree, but I won't attack those pirates when your family members are still in the hands of those pirates. After I rescue your family members, I will definitely not let them go. past those pirates."

Liu Wei's words were impassioned, those fishermen were very moved when they heard it, but Zhuge Pi couldn't help but his heart sank, the family members of those fishermen were captured by pirates, trying to rescue them, I'm afraid it would be more difficult than going to heaven In his opinion, if they want to completely solve the pirate problem, they can only sacrifice those civilians who were captured by the pirates.

But Liu Wei said such a thing, Zhuge Pi didn't think Liu Wei could rescue those people, but from past experience, Liu Wei had never told a lie, let alone failed.

So after some hesitation, Zhuge Pi chose to remain silent.

The fishermen chose to leave after receiving Liu Wei's assurance.

After the fishermen left the government office, Zhugepi hurriedly asked Liu Weiwei: "My lord, I wonder how you can rescue those people who were captured by pirates?"

Liu Wei smiled, thought for a while, and then shook his head: "I don't know yet, but I will figure out a way. I have something to go out. You should hurry up and urge those guards to learn swimming. Besides, I will arrange You should also hurry up and take care of the things to go down, it is best to prepare more."

Zhugepi nodded again and again, but asked with doubts: "My lord, what is that round thing you asked us to make?"

"That's called a life buoy. I can't learn to swim, so I can only use them in emergencies. And among our guards, some of them are like me. No matter how hard they learn, they can't learn to swim. When the time comes, we will also prepare them." Some, to avoid accidents."

Zhugepi half understood, said: "Is this life buoy really useful?"

"Naturally, it's like a piece of wood floating on the water. The left and right parts of the lifebuoy are like planks. It's just that I have modified it so that I can put those things on people. In this way, it's much easier to swim. As long as the lifebuoy doesn't break, People who don't know how to swim can also swim freely on the sea surface."

When Liu Wei talked about the floating situation of the board, Zhuge Pi immediately understood, and after understanding, he couldn't help worshiping Liu Wei even more. As long as people can float on the water in the sea, people can survive, but why didn't he think of finding a wooden board? How about a material that can float on the water and put it on a person?
Just when Zhuge Pi was thinking this way, Liu Wei turned around and left the government office.

But he said that after Liu Wei left the government office, he went directly to Washington.

After seeing Qiushuang in the living room, Liu Wei showed a slight smile: "I came to see Miss Qiushuang today, just to hear what good strategies Miss Qiushuang, a military advisor, has."

Liu Wei's smile is very faint, so faint that it is difficult to detect, but it is clearly felt. Qiushuang has never seen a man like Liu Wei. She thinks she can quickly understand any man, but she just Can't understand Liu Wei.

"Liu Concubine doesn't say what it is, how can this military advisor come up with a good plan?"

Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I thought Miss Qiushuang was well-informed, and she already knew about the recent affairs of Prince Xing's Mansion." At this point, Liu Wei did not pause at all, and continued: "I want to tell Jin Hua The pirates on Flying Fish Island and Flying Fish Island, so I want to hear Miss Qiushuang's advice."

Of course, Qiu Shuang knew about this matter a long time ago, and the reason why she said this was because she couldn't understand what Liu Wei said just now. Could it be that she was well-informed, and Liu Wei didn't need to explain things clearly if he wanted to ask her about her strategy? ?
"The strength of Jinhua Island and Flying Fish Island are extraordinary, and they have captured many fishermen's family members. I'm afraid the son-in-law has no chance of winning against them, and it's also not appropriate."

After Qiushuang finished speaking, she also smiled lightly, and took a sip of a cup of tea, as if she knew that Liu Wei's situation was worrying, but she was not worried.

Liu Wei snorted, but continued to ask: "This official knows, and because of this, I came here to ask Miss Qiushuang for advice."

Qiu Shuang shook her head: "I'm afraid that my lord is not here to ask this girl for advice, but to test this girl. Judging from Liu Concubine's behavior in the past few days, Liu Concubine should have thought of a countermeasure long ago, didn't he? "

Hearing Qiu Shuang say such a sentence, Liu Wei rubbed his chin in embarrassment, then stood up and said, "Miss Qiu Shuang is really extraordinary, if that's the case, then I will take my leave first."
-
After Liu Wei left, Qiu Shuang couldn't help sighing, she thought Liu Wei was a genius, he could forcibly carve out a way out of the impossible.

It's just that Dongyu didn't know, so when Qiushuang sighed, Dongyu asked in a puzzled way: "Why is sister Qiushuang sighing, and what is Liu's son-in-law's method?"

Qiu Shuang smiled, and asked without answering: "You have inquired about Liu Wei's news in the past few days. You should also know why those guards went to find the fisherman, right?"

"Of course it's clear. Liu Wei just wants to know if there are any other islands where pirates gather besides Golden Flower Island and Flying Fish Island."

After Dong Yu finished speaking, she was still puzzled. She didn't understand why Liu Wei wanted to inquire about these things. She also didn't understand that since Liu Wei inquired about Jinhua Island and Flying Fish Island from Zhuang Yan, why should she inquire about other islands? But why ask about it from the fisherman?

Could it be that Liu Wei is using this move to confuse some people?
Seeing that Dong Yu was puzzled, Qiu Shuang said calmly: "Looking at Liu Wei's current situation, it is impossible for him to be the opponent of Jinhua Island and Feiyu Island. Liu Wei is a smart person, how could he do it?" What about things that he is not sure about? Even if he wants to do it, he will definitely do something that he is sure of. The pirates on Golden Flower Island and Flying Fish Island are too difficult to deal with, but the pirates on other islands are easy to deal with. Some of them are only a few Ten people gathered together to rob each other, some were only a dozen or so, and the most were a hundred or so. Before dealing with Golden Flower Island and Flying Fish Island, Liu Wei had to deal with these small and weak pirates. "

After Qiushuang finished speaking, Dong Yu didn't seem to understand: "But what Liu Wei really wants to deal with are the pirates on Jinhua Island and Flying Fish Island. What's the use for him to deal with those little pirates now?"

"This is Liu Wei's cleverness."

"What's so clever about Liu Wei?" Dong Yu couldn't understand it. She didn't think Liu Wei was so clever in doing so.

"That's right, it's indeed Liu Wei's cleverness. Now his strength is too weak to be hostile to the pirates on Jinhua Island and Flying Fish Island, but what if he has the support of other pirates at sea?"

"Support from other pirates?" Dong Yu was surprised: "Liu Wei is going to fight those pirates, how can he get the support of those pirates?"

She thought it was impossible.
