Chapter 105 There is no impolite
After this disaster on Treasure Island, the stockade that had just had something like it became devastated again. The burned houses were poked there with black wood as support, which made people couldn't help but feel a little sad.
At this time, they lost several people, including horse faces, and injured several, causing their strength to suffer considerable losses for the time being.
But what's better is that this time they didn't lose anything. Although they burned some houses and lost a few hands, they captured all the people brought by Zhou Cheng, captured 17 Zhou Cheng's men, and also captured Zhou Cheng's boat, making them have another available ship.
Yu Xiaotian calculated that now, including the sand boat they robbed and took their original small fishing boat, they already have four boats, and their manpower has increased to nearly 60 people. As long as these people are taken for their own use, his strength will be more than doubled compared with when he first went to sea, so this time Jin The attack on Silver Island was also a blessing for him.
Although the death of horse face is an irreparable loss for their sea wolves, it is not necessarily a bad thing for Xiaotian to some extent.
As the second head, Ma Face has a high prestige among people born in Xiaohuangdao. This prestige has always been a hidden danger for Xiaotian. Many times Yu Xiaotian has to take into account Ma Face's face and his ideas. Although Ma Face has always been more supportive of him during this period, he has to say His existence has always been a constraint for Xiaotian.
Now that the horse's face is dead, Liu Laoliu has the highest prestige among the old man, while Meng madman is less-minded and Li Gouzi is timid. Zhao Mazi is mainly responsible for contacting the outside world. Liu Laoliu is also his most important fan of Yu Xiaotian. Several other old guys are unable to challenge Yu Xiaotian's prestige. In this way, there is no horse face. After that, the people of Xiaohuangdao lost a backbone. In the following days, they could only rely wholeheartedly on Xiaotian's side and take Xiaotian as the master, and Yu Xiaotian was equivalent to completely grasping the dominance of this group of people.
For him who has just started, bad things have become good things. He can decide things in the future more freely without paying more attention to the idea of horse faces.
Yu Xiaotian secretly thought about this incident and thought to himself that this incident was not a bad thing for him, but he could only bury this idea in his heart and could not say it to anyone.
Just when everyone thought that this matter was over, they planned to repair the houses on Treasure Island, but Yu Xiaotian did not think so, but ordered not to consider the renovation of the house for the time being, leaving some people to take care of the quarantined prisoners. He carefully selected more than 20 capable people and simply cleaned up one. The ship that will be completed next week, after simply repairing the cracked cracks in the hull, emptied the water in the cabin, and boarded the ship Yang Fan to the sea and headed north.
And Meng Fei, who went to sea with the ship, had a black spot on his face. Now everyone calls him a grimace, but Meng Fei doesn't care about this name. Anyway, since he was a child, he has been used to being laughed at for the black spot on his face.
In Xiaotian's view, this matter did not end because of Zhou Cheng's death. Since Zhou Cheng was the first day of the first year, he can't be blamed for his surname Yu.
In Zhou Cheng's nest, there are 20 or 30 men, including Zhou Cheng's wives and concubines, some meat tickets they tied on the shore, and some of their men.
These people and things are also things that must be obtained as soon as possible for Yu Xiaotian. If Zhou grows up and doesn't go back, these people will soon disperse with their belongings, so Yu Xiaotian took people to board the boat and rushed to Zhou Cheng's nest with the idea of never letting go.
Zhou Cheng's ship is much worse than their ship, and it is relatively old, and it has suffered great damage. The bow is newly replaced, and the hull strength is also average. This time in the Battle of Treasure Island, it was hit by Yu Xiaotian with a boat, and a crack was hit behind the left side of the hull. There is a lot of water in the body.
Originally, the ship could no longer be used without careful repair, but Yu Xiaotian still decided to take a risk and take people out to sea in this boat. The purpose was nothing else, just to use the boat to catch the people in Zhou Cheng's nest off guard.
After interrogation, Yu Xiaotian learned that Zhou Cheng did not put his nest on a nearby island, but chose a small village called the East China Sea on the east coast of Haitan Island as their place to settle down.
Haitan Island covers a large area, with a total area of 300 square kilometers. Although the residents of the island were relocated in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, resulting in the abolition of all industries on the island, and Haitan Island has also become a paradise for Japanese pirates. However, over the years, under the attack of the imperial court, the Japanese pirates have gradually sunk in Xishan, and the threat to China's coast has also been greatly reduced. Fujian government The prevention in the coastal area is increasingly relaxed, so some people have secretly returned to Haitan Island and settled down, which has also become a hiding place for many small pirates.
Some pirates pretend to be ordinary fishermen and fish on the sea, but secretly they are pirates. They often go to sea to hijack ships and even attack on land. Zhou Cheng's group is stationed in the Donghai Village as an ordinary fisherman as a cover, but they are pirate's business.
After the grimace Meng Fei surrendered to Yu Xiaotian, he told Yu Xiaotian everything he knew, which made Yu Xiaotian understand the details of Zhou Cheng's old nest, so he rushed to Zhou Cheng's old nest Donghai Village.
Donghai Village is a small village. In the past few years, ten or 20 fishermen gathered to fish and farm in this area for a living. However, for more than a year, since Zhou Cheng brought people here, Donghai Village has been completely controlled by Zhou Cheng.
The original fishermen in the village were forced by Zhou Cheng and became his vassals. The fishing not only should be honored to Zhou Cheng, but also their personal freedom is controlled by Zhou Cheng. If the men and women in the village are a little disothwarted, they will be beaten and killed by Zhou Cheng, so that the villagers mention Zhou Cheng and secretly gritted their teeth, but they dare not There is no way.
And Zhou Cheng went to sea to hunt, and like others, he would not pour out. In his nest, there were also some members left to take care of the house.
This time, Zhou Cheng led people to attack the Treasure Island, but the whole army was destroyed, but the people in his nest did not suffer any losses. Although their number was not large, if Yu Xiaotian came to attack them, once Zhou Cheng's subordinates who stayed here, If the villagers of Donghai Village resist, it may not be easy to take it down with Yu Xiaotian's strength. Therefore, Yu Xiaotian came up with the idea of using Zhou Cheng's broken boat to attack his nest.
Fortunately, Liu Laoliu, an old sea wolf, has a deep understanding of the weather at sea. Before coming out this time, Liu Laoliu carefully observed the weather conditions and determined that there would be no big storms and waves on the sea in the past few days, which laid a better foundation for their trip.
After they went to sea, although the damaged part of the hull has been simply repaired and the large cracks have been blocked, some small cracks have not been completely dealt with. Therefore, along the way, the cabin walls of the two damaged cabins of the ship are still constantly seeping, which makes everyone on the ship worried and keep on the way. Check the cracks in the hull and constantly fill the cracks with simple tools to keep the hull from a large amount of water or disintegration.
Fortunately, Treasure Island is not far from Donghai Village on Haitan Island. The straight distance is only about 40 miles, and the wind and waves on the sea are not big. Although the ship is damaged, it can still persist in this trip. After most days of sailing, in the evening, under the guidance of Meng Fei Next, they gradually drove into the east coast of Haitan Island and saw a small village on the shore of Haitan Island from afar.
Donghai Village is very small, but there is a low wall around the village. People can be seen moving outside the village in the distance, and there is also a simple trestle by the sea, which is obviously used for ships to dock and go ashore. If you don't know the details, almost no one knows that this is actually Zhou Cheng. The old nest.
When they saw Zhou Cheng's boat appear at the seaside, people moving on the shore quickly found it approaching, so someone immediately shouted towards the seaside and walked on the trestle and made a gesture to greet them.
"Look, the guy in the front is the one in red. He is Zhou Cheng's adopted son, named Zhou Li. He is nicknamed Sea Snake. He doesn't do anything else, just because he is cruel and vicious than sea snake!
But this man is usually very good at pleasing Zhou Cheng, so he is highly valued by Zhou Cheng. We usually have to listen to his instructions. This man does a lot of immoral things here in Donghai Village! Generally, if Zhou Cheng takes the boat out to sea, he will let this person stay at home! Just rest assured about this one!
Sometimes if Zhou Cheng can't come out, he will let him take people out to sea, which is almost our second head!
Don't be careless about this man. It is said that this man learned a good knife skill in his early years. He was quite good at it. Several masters of boat guards were folded in his hands and were very pierced to deal with it. After a while, the rudder handle should be particularly careful! As long as you can turn this one over, everyone else will say it!"
Looking at the people on the shore from afar, Meng Fei stood next to the mast and pointed to one of them and said to Yu Xiaotian beside him.
Yu Xiaotian hid behind the sail, quietly looked at the shore, and silently waved to the people on the ship. Everyone on the boat immediately turned their backs and avoided the sight of the people on the shore.
"Meng Fei! You can find a way to deceive that man into the boat and solve him first. If you do a good job this time, Yu will not treat you badly after you go back!" Yu Xiaotian said to Meng Fei.
Meng Fei quickly nodded and said, "Don't worry, this man has harmed us a lot. None of us will hate him so much. If the helms can kill this man, it will be a blow to us!
Let the brothers not reveal their secrets later. I'll come forward to deceive that guy and kill him first!"
The ship slowly leaned towards the shore. When it was still seven or eight meters away from the shore, the boat stopped next to a simple trestle, and a stone anchor fell into the sea with a trestle.
The man in red stood on the trestle, watched the boat stop, looked up at the ship, frowned, and shouted, "Ghost face! Why did this ship become like this? Where is my godfather? Why don't you see our head?"
Meng Fei threw a plate of rope on the trestle, let several people on the trestle catch it, fixed the boat next to the trestle, and then lay on the bow and shouted, "Brother Li, the owner is injured! This time we went out and ran into a hard idea. The big head accidentally got hit. Fortunately, we walked fast and barely came back. The big head is still lying on the boat now! Brother Li, come up and have a look!"
Zhou Li has seen the damage on the hull, as well as the mottled bullet holes and broken arrows on the hull. At a glance, he saw that the ship must have encountered a hard idea when it went to sea this time. He had made a fierce hand with people, and it was also Meng Fei, their subordinate who talked to him at the side of the ship's side, so nothing happened. Doubtful.
Hearing Meng Fei say that Zhou Cheng was injured, Zhou Li suddenly became nervous. Without saying a word, he stepped on the springboard lowered on the ship and walked towards the ship.
(The number of collections is still a little far from what is expected, so today I still want to ask new friends to help collect it! In addition, I also want to thank my love friends for their unreshing rewards. Thank you very much!)
