Chapter five hundred and sixty: fire and
Chapter 560: Fire
When he arrived at this situation, Cui Zheng couldn't help but sigh, and knew in his heart that the maritime merchants would sooner or later turn against the pirates, or even be surrounded by the navy, it would be time to plan for himself. The head of the family has already destroyed the sect, so why should he take revenge?
Cui Zheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Go, let this news be released, the more people know, the better."
The officials only thought for a while, and immediately understood Cui Zheng’s meaning, and said one after another: “Mr. Cui is still thinking carefully.”
Haitanshan said it was big or not, and the news spread very quickly. In just two hours, everyone knew the content of the notice. The entire Haitanshan gradually became uneasy, and it was better to be alone. There were no relatives on the shore and they were not afraid of anything. Some people with relatives in the inland areas may not be able to detect the government, but they were also worried.
However, in the Black Wind Village, the three-headed snake was very upset and knew that it shouldn't have announced the news in the Juyi Hall. It was unexpected that it would have spread so quickly. But even if he didn't say this notice, other leaders would have other ways to know. At the moment, the entire Haitan Mountain was in panic. Only God knows whether he could resist stubbornly when the official army came.
In the afternoon, hundreds of minions secretly went out to sea and were caught back. These people were thinking about their relatives in the inland and wanted to leave. After being blocked, several leaders discussed it and cut off their heads directly, hanging them at several simple docks.
But no matter how many people were killed, they could not stop someone from taking risks. After one night, there were seven or eight boats and more than four hundred people missing from Haitan Mountain. The three-headed snake summoned all the leaders and said furiously: "Who released the news? How can we reveal what we say here casually? Humph, could it be that someone deliberately colluded with the government to stab the brothers in the back?" As he said the last sentence, the three-headed snake looked at Cui Zheng almost naked.
The others in Juyi Hall were also silent. At this time, Cui Zheng slowly said: "Maybe it was the whistle that someone released himself, and it may not be necessary to call him to catch him."
The three-headed snake had a hot temper, but was aroused by this, and shouted: "Cui Zheng, what do you mean?"
As soon as he finished speaking, several confidants who came with the three-headed snake immediately made a gesture to draw their swords.
Cui Zheng stood up slowly and looked straight at the three-headed snake: "That's what I mean, why? Can the head of the family still kill me?"
Several officials behind Cui Zheng suddenly arose, and said, "Originally, everyone is on the same boat, and they should be the most important thing. You are suspicious of the three-headed snake. Can you believe me?"
Another said: "If you believe it, we will just break up. If you really want to fight, our four big fonts are not afraid of you."
Only half of this sentence was said, the four officials brought by the officials also drew their swords, and the shaky swords were drawn out from the sheath, causing the cold lights to cause everyone in the Juyi Hall to draw out their weapons, and suddenly became tense.
The three-headed snake hesitated for a moment. The strength of these four surnames is also good. Not to mention that the manpower accounts for half of the entire Haitan Mountain, even the ships are much more than those of the pirates. It is really not worth it to turn against each other at this time. He reluctantly squeezed out a smile on his face and said, "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, Master Zhang said it well. We are on the same boat, so peace is the most important thing."
The discussion this morning ended in disagreement. Although the three-headed snake kept sending Cui Zheng out of the village and apologized repeatedly. Cui Zheng also smiled and said that he would not blame the past, but everyone here knew that something was going to happen.
After seeing off Cui Zheng and his wife, all the leaders of Haitan Mountain were left behind. Everyone had long disliked those leaders, so they naturally complained a few times. The three-headed snake pondered for a moment and said, "To protect our Haitan Mountain, Cui Zheng and his wife are not trustworthy, and they have to find ways to apart them."
After saying that, he continued: "Let's do something tonight, raid their cottage, kill these four ignorant things, and then gather their subordinates."
There were many people who were jealous of Cui Zheng and his family. The noise immediately dispersed: "Yes, since they dared to have strange intentions, what else should the brothers care about? If they killed them and seized their men and ships, are they still afraid that they could not defend this Haitan Mountain?"

Cui Zheng and the three officials left Heifeng Village, and they went to the dock within their own area to rest. They asked people to cook tea. The wine in the sea-tan mountain was smelly and stinky. At least they had enjoyed some pampering days and refused to join the pirates. In the past, they went to discuss matters and had wine in Juyi Hall. They didn't even want to move. When they came back, they ordered people to make tea.
After the Longyan tea was poured and only smelled the tea fragrance, Cui Zheng couldn't help but cheer up and said slowly: "This time I went to sea, I only brought a few bags of such tea. After eating this cup of tea this time, I don't know when I can taste this taste again." After saying that, he carefully raised the tea cup and took a sip. The tea water overflowed with a strong fragrance between his mouth. After Cui Zheng carefully savored it, he swallowed it reluctantly into his throat.
A main official next to him said: "Go back to the inland and back to our Quanzhou, are you afraid you won't be able to eat Longyan tea?"
Cui Zheng sighed and said, "It's not so easy to go back inland!" He shook his head and smiled and said, "How did so many people run back yesterday?"
The three officials looked at each other. Everyone knew that hundreds of people went out to sea yesterday and were intercepted and their heads were lost.
A chief official said: "Mr. Cui is too worried. If we really want to go out to sea, who dares to stop us?"
Cui Zheng thought about it and raised his eyelids lazily: "I'm afraid of conflict. Besides, if we go back to Quanzhou empty-handed, we can escape death and lose our master in the future, what can we make a living?"
A chief hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively: "Mr. Cui means, we slaughtered the head of the three-headed snake and gave it to the delegation of the envoy Shen?"
Cui Zheng opened his eyes and said calmly: "Originally, I didn't want to do such a miserable thing, but you said you should think about it for yourself, and Cui thought it through clearly. Since that's the case, then you will not do it and make a long-term plan for yourself."
The three main officials looked at each other and nodded: "Great."
The swords were sharpened in Haitan Mountain, but it was surprisingly calm. In the evening, Cui Zheng invited the leaders of various villages to drink. The three-headed snakes had already made up their minds to take action tonight and didn't want to go, but then he thought that if he didn't go, it would inevitably make people suspicious, so he brought many more brothers to the sea merchants to the banquet.
Cui Zheng didn't plan to kill him here. Seeing that the three-headed snakes brought a lot of followers, they deliberately looked open and upright. Everyone had a great conversation, clarified the misunderstandings in the past, and drank happily. Even Cui Zheng, who had never liked to drink, drank a few more glasses, his face turned red and said in his mouth: "If you didn't take in, I really want to be buried in four or five."
The three-headed snake patted his chest and said, "What are Mr. Cui's words? Even if he goes to Haitan Mountain, he is his own brother. Haitan Mountain is also Mr. Cui's home. Mr. Cui said this, it's too disgusting."
After the banquet, the three-headed snakes went out drunk and left the range of the sea merchants. When the sea breeze blew, they immediately became extremely awake. One of the leaders said: "I think the man named Cui wants to make peace with us, and he still doesn't do anything tonight?"
The three-headed snake sneered and said, "Why don't you move? If you eat them, the sky is high and the sea is wide, where can we go? If you can't defeat the official army, we can also go to Liuqiu. Bypass Penghu, it's enough to make a world of heaven and earth in Liuqiu."
Liuqiu is the largest island in the Great Song Dynasty. There are also Han people who reproduce on the island. However, at this time, the Song army only controlled Penghu and asked Liuqiu to call him a vassal and pay tribute. Liuqiu looked like a large territory and had two palaces. However, even five hundred ships under the Liuqiu King's tent could not be collected. When they encountered these desperate pirates several surprise attacks, they all recognized them. With the strength of these pirates in the past, they naturally could not eat the large island. However, if they could get the manpower and ships of the four major surnames, they would really have hope of separatist.
After making up their minds, the leaders of each village returned to the village to select the players. They didn't know that at the banquet, the swaying of the oil lamp, Cui Zheng's face was even more sinister. Cui Zheng squeezed out a sentence from his mouth: "Take it."
After half an hour, the silence was finally broken, and the sound of killing sounds were everywhere. Everyone thought it was a surprise attack, but who knew it was a battle. Some people encountered it halfway and fought together. Some people touched each other's water camp, but found that they were ready and had swords and guns ready. Everyone wanted to take advantage of the situation, but it turned out to be this situation. There was nothing to say at this point, fight.
That night, the shouts of killing were never stopped, and no one knew which side had the upper hand. They only knew that in the dark, countless people were ceasing and then they had a fight with another group of people, and they fell on the corpses on the ground. Maybe another group of people would come soon...
On this isolated island, no one has a way out. When a brave man meets on a narrow road, everyone can only have one mission: killing people and killing the other party completely, so that they can have hope of survival.
Both sides may have made extremely careful arrangements in the past, but temporary changes occur. In the end, any deployment is nonsense, because any plan can only constrain itself and cannot control the other party. It is like a stealing camp. You can deploy tightly to attack the enemy's *** camp, but you can't let the other party stay in the camp and sleep waiting for you to steal. When both sides think about touching the other party's camp and stealing, when they suddenly encounter an opponent in the night fog, everyone can only bite the bullet and act seriously.
The fire gradually spread, shouting and killing, the firelight, the shrill cry, the sound of metal entering the flesh, and the sound of metal and metal clashing, turned this ordinary night into extraordinary.
