The first-class concubine of the Song Dynasty

Chapter 201
After Zhang Jing stood up, he glanced at Liu Wei's boat, and then couldn't help asking: "You guys are so unreasonable. The people on my Jinggu Island have never provoked your court. Why are you here to destroy us?" ?”

Liu Wei smiled slightly, and said: "Because you often block roads and rob, the people of our Song Dynasty have suffered a lot of losses. As the magistrate of King Xing's Mansion, I have the responsibility to protect the property and lives of the people of Song Dynasty of."

Hearing Liu Wei's words, Zhang Jing couldn't help being taken aback for a moment. He was from the Southern Han Dynasty before, and he knew exactly what kind of officials in the Southern Tang Dynasty. It was the first time he had seen an official like Liu Wei. .

But now that he has entered the pirate business, even if he admires Liu Wei's actions, they are still enemies after all, and if they are enemies, they cannot be merciful.

"That's a reason, but since we are pirates, how can we support ourselves if we don't block the way and rob?"

That's not bad.

But Liu Wei shook his head: "In this world, as long as people have hands, they can support themselves. There are many ways to survive. Why do you do such the most shameful thing?"

After Liu Wei finished speaking, Zhang Jing was speechless for a while, but soon smiled coldly: "No matter what you say, we are robbers, what do you want?"

"I'll give you two ways, one is to submit to the imperial court and not to rob again in the future, and the other is to be wiped out by us."

Liu Wei's words were very cold, Zhang Jing was slightly taken aback after hearing this: "Can you destroy us?"

The corner of Liu Wei's mouth twitched, and then he waved his hand. After Liu Wei waved his hand, the archers on the boat rushed up. They hit the arrows, but they were rockets.

"I heard that the scenery on Jinggu Island is good, and there are farmers. I don't know what will happen to the island after these rockets are fired. With the fire spreading, who of you can survive?"

Speaking of this, Liu Wei showed a slight smile again: "Even if you can't be burned to death, but such a beautiful island is destroyed like this, you feel distressed, how can you survive?"

Zhang Jing was startled, and everyone was startled. They found that what Liu Wei said was true. If there was a big fire, the whole island would become a sea of ​​flames. The small island is full of trees and crops. Moreover, their small island is a foot above the sea, and a fire broke out, so it is not easy to get water.

Everyone's hearts were slightly cold, and they didn't know what to do for a while, so they turned their attention to Zhang Jing.

Zhang Jing frowned, but he was also panicked. He had been a pirate for so many years, only robbed property, and never killed those passing fishermen, so that his conscience could be at ease?But today Liu Wei wants to trouble him, what can he do?
After thinking like this for a long time, Zhang Jing suddenly laughed and said: "Master Liu is really a very good person. If so, I wonder if Master Liu would like to come ashore and negotiate with this subordinate?"

When those pirates heard Zhang Jing's words, they thought that Zhang Jing already had a countermeasure, and they couldn't help feeling relieved.

And Zhuge Pi over here changed his expression slightly after hearing Zhang Jing's words: "My lord, this scene seems to have no intentions, but he still has the intelligence to be able to become a pirate leader from a pig butcher." , he wants my lord to go ashore, there must be a conspiracy, my lord must guard against it."

After Zhugepi finished speaking, Zhan Qing immediately said, "Don't be fooled, if you really want to talk, let him come down."

Seeing that Zhuge Pi and Zhan Qing were so timid and fearful, Daniel was a little annoyed: "My lord, if he is afraid that he will do something wrong, just go up."

Zhuge Pi glared at Daniel: "What are you talking about, what a dangerous thing it is to negotiate with pirates, how can you let adults take risks? In case something goes wrong, you can afford it?"

Daniel just wanted to enjoy himself for a while, but now that he heard Zhugepi's words, he didn't dare to say anything else, so he immediately bowed his head and remained silent.

But at this time, Liu Wei smiled slightly: "It's okay to go up, Mr. Zhuge, prepare the boat."

"grown ups……"

Zhuge Pi was a little anxious, but Liu Wei seemed to have made up his mind.

"Throw the boat!"

Zhugepi had no choice but to order people to throw the boat.

After the boat entered the water, Liu Weifei jumped onto the boat and rowed towards Jinggu Island. The pirates on Jinggu Island saw that Liu Wei really dared to come, and couldn't help admiring Liu Wei's courage. He is disdainful, their Liu Wei is nothing more than that, he is deceived after a little deception, and the outside world rumors that he is so smart is nothing more than that.

When Liu Wei rowed towards Jinggu Island, Zhang Jing didn't say a word, even his expression was calm.

When Liu Wei came to the shore of Jinggu Island, some pirates put down the rope ladder. After Liu Wei climbed onto the island along the rope ladder, he smiled slightly at Zhang Jing: "I'm here, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Zhang Jing looked at Liu Wei and laughed a few times, and then said: "Master Liu is really courageous, isn't he afraid that I will suddenly regret and suddenly attack you?"

Liu Wei smiled: "I'm afraid, of course I'm afraid, but I'm not a person who is too afraid of death. As long as you are willing to let your brothers be buried with me, I don't mind at all."

Hearing Liu Wei's words, Zhang Jing was taken aback for a moment, the meaning of Liu Wei's words could not be more clear, that is, as long as Zhang Jing dares to do something, Liu Wei's people will immediately set fire to the entire Jinggu Island, and the people on his island I am afraid that these brothers will not be spared.

This is a gamble and a trade-off, the gamble is whether Zhang Jing is willing to sacrifice the lives of himself and his brothers.

Zhang Jing was a little hesitant, but quickly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, Master Liu is really extraordinary. I, Zhang Jing, are convinced. The pirates on my Jinggu Island are willing to submit to the imperial court. I just wonder how Master Liu plans to arrange us?"

"As long as you are willing to reform, there will always be a place for you in Prince Xing's Mansion, even if you want to stay on the island forever, but you are not allowed to do robbery in the future."

"Okay, Mr. Liu is a cheerful person."

Liu Wei smiled: "Besides that, I need you to do one more thing for me."

Zhang Jing was slightly taken aback: "What is it?"

Liu Wei asked Zhang Jing to come over, whispered something in his ear, and then asked, "Are you agreeable?"

Zhang Jing didn't hesitate about this: "My lord is willing to give us brothers a chance, what is this matter, we agree."

"it is good!"
-
Liu Wei subdued the pirates on Jinggu Island with just a few words, which made Zhugepi and others find it hard to believe.

Pirates are easy to persuade. In Zhugepi's view, only force can convince pirates.

But Liu Wei subdued those pirates with just one mouth.

Therefore, when Liu Wei returned to the big boat again, Zhuge Pi asked a little puzzled: "My lord, this...how is this possible, how did that scene belong to your lord?"

Liu Wei smiled: "Because I found his weakness."

"Weakness?"

"That's right, in fact, everyone has a weakness, and Zhang Jing's weakness is that he is too affectionate, and he cherishes his life, so as long as the official threatens him to burn his entire Jinggu Island, he will immediately surrender."

Speaking of this, Liu Wei smiled again: "In fact, people like Zhang Jing are rare. If he is a little selfish, we may really have a tough battle."

Zhuge Pi seems to understand, he knows his weakness, but what he doesn't know is how does Liu Wei know that Zhang Jing has a weakness?

"My lord, how did you see that Zhang Jing values ​​friendship?"

"It's very simple, because there are crops on Jinggu Island, may I ask if there are any pirates who grow crops? The fastest way to get money in this world is robbery. If they just rob, the money they rob is much more than the crops get. They still planted crops, which shows that Zhang Jing is very laissez-faire with his subordinates, and his subordinates miss their hometown land."

"that's it?"

"Then there is the news that Mr. Zhuge ordered someone to inquire. Although Zhang Jing is a robber, he has never hurt anyone's life. This is enough to show that he still has a conscience. A person who has a conscience is very easy to persuade."

After the two said this, Zhuge Pi admired Liu Wei extremely, but he was still a little puzzled.

"What did your lord say to Zhang Jing? They won't go out to sea with us. What if they repent?"

"My officer asked him to take people to Jinhua Island to help destroy the pirates on Jinhua Island when necessary. He agreed. As for repenting, we don't have to be afraid. He should know the fate of repenting. And before they don't come, we They won’t really do anything to the pirates on Jinhua Island, so they don’t have to think about reaping the benefits or sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight.”

Hearing Liu Wei's words, Zhugepi knew that Liu Wei had thought through everything, so he felt more at ease.

"My lord, now that the pirates on Jinggu Island have been subdued, Sanyang Island is next. Sanyang Island is huge, and there are many hidden reefs nearby. There are more than 30 pirates on Sanyang Island, all of whom are vicious. If we want to subdue them, I'm afraid it won't be easy."

After Zhuge Pi finished speaking, he looked at Liu Wei. After Liu Wei frowned slightly, he slowly opened it again: "Since we want to subdue the pirates in this sea area, we can't just rely on words, because not all pirates are like Zhang Jing." That way there is still conscience and love, so in many cases, we have to use force to conquer, since the pirates on Sanyang Island are extremely vicious, then we have to be even more vicious than them."

Speaking of this, a sneer appeared on the corner of Liu Wei's mouth, and he asked, "When can I get to Sanyang Island?"

"If there is no accident, we will be able to reach Sanyang Island tomorrow."

Zhugepi thought for a while after finishing speaking, and then said again: "My lord, may I tell you about the pirates on Sanyang Island, maybe you can find out their weakness from it."

"Mr. Zhuge is kind, but I just want to know one thing, are they all vicious?"
