Chapter 333 Infiltrating Palembang
It was another morning, and there was no wind on the sea. A traditional fishing boat with a poisonous body appeared again in the waters near Palembang. The fishing boat did not conduct fishing operations, but kept rowing two rows of long oars, walking back and forth on the sea.
Half an hour later, a Gandoli patrol warship appeared at sea level. After discovering this strange fishing boat, he immediately rowed and rushed towards them. However, the fishing boat did not flee in panic, but instead stopped indifferently in the sea, as if waiting for the other party to come.
A general on the Gandoli warship ordered several soldiers: "It seems that this is a local fishing boat. You go up and check their ship's registration to see if there are any suspicious outsiders and other suspicious things!"
After approaching the Gandoli patrol boat, five soldiers wearing hats immediately jumped onto the other ship. The leader asked, "Where are you from? What are you doing here?"
On the fishing boat, the man who looked like the boss of the boat hurriedly replied: "This military master, we are the fishing boats in Palembang, so we are naturally fishing."
The soldier in charge looked up and down at the boat boss and asked with some doubts: "Fishing boat? But why do I think you have a good eye? There are about 200 fishermen in Palembang, even if I don't know you, I can still be familiar with you. But I seem to have never seen you before. Take out your ship's registration and take a look!"
The boss of the boat accompanied the smile and said loudly: "Mr. Jun is going to check the ship's registration. If the ship's registration is placed in the cabin, please come with the younger one."
When the five Gantuli soldiers saw that the other party did not want to submit the ship's registration on their own initiative, they were about to get angry. The other party whispered: "I'm sure you are a few soldiers, this ship is transporting black goods for big merchants in the city. If you don't have a ship registration, I hope the army will be convenient for you. We have prepared some gifts to honor the five soldiers, so it's not convenient to hand over here. Please come with the younger ones."
These five Gantuli soldiers are usually responsible for sea inspections. After seeing a lot of local merchants smuggling and tax evasion, they immediately understood it.
If you go to the cabin to accept bribes from the other party, you can share the money equally. If you take out the other party’s money outside the cabin, it means that both soldiers from both ships have a share, and the generals and officials have to take the big head, so each person can’t share much. Some generals and officials even think that the money is small and refuse this unexpected fortune.
The older leader deliberately said loudly: "Since that's the case, we have to check the bottom of the bilge anyway. Let's go down and check it out!"
The five people followed the boat boss to the bottom of the bilge with joy. The boat boss immediately opened a box in the corner of the cabin and took out a heavy package and handed it to the five people. The five people opened the package with a smile and found that it turned out to be a large bag of Juro gold coins transformed with Roman gold coins.
The five people threw the weapons aside, freed up their hands, and rushed to put the gold coins into their bags. The leader in the lead felt his neck tightened as soon as he stuffed a handful of gold coins into his arms, and he had already locked his neck tightly by a pair of arms like iron hoops.
In his blurry sight, his companion opposite him was also tied around his neck by a strong man from behind, and his feet kicked and struggled desperately. With a few slight crisp sounds, the necks of the five people were twisted...
Five Gandori wearing straw hats came out of the cabin and climbed back to the deck of the warship. The Gandori general on the warship asked: "How is it? Have you checked whether they have any registered in the ship? Is there anything suspicious?"
The five people remained silent and did not respond to the general's question. The general was a little angry and was about to scold him, but before he could speak, a dagger pierced into his neck with lightning speed.
The general wanted to speak but couldn't say anything. He covered his bloody neck and fell on the deck. When he fell on the deck, he found that Zhang Mo's face was under the hat of the other party. The stranger stabbed and killed the other two consecutively with the dagger that had just stabbed into his body.
The other four people also assassinated nearly ten Gandoli soldiers at an extremely fast speed. At the same time, more than ten strong men holding weapons surged out of the cabin of the fishing boat, and jumped onto the warship one by one at an extremely fast speed. Fighting and screams immediately came from the ship, and finally everything returned to peace.
These people are Lin Tao's people, led by Han Duya, the chief guard of Missoula. Han Duya urged and said, "Hurry! Take off the clothes and hats and throw the body onto the fishing boat. The speed should be fast. You must finish before other patrol boats arrive!"
...
Half an hour later, the fishing boat full of corpses left. However, there were still three prisoners on the Gandoli patrol boat. Han Duya easily pried open the mouths of the three prisoners and asked Gandoli's current handover system clearly.
When the three prisoners knew that the man in front of him was the chief guard of the former royal family of Gandori, and that the former royal prince Missura was preparing to restore the country, they all expressed their willingness to be loyal to Missura and to serve in the capture of Palembang.
This patrol ship controlled by Handuya was walking on the sea. It encountered other patrol ships from time to time, but no one was suspicious of them. After saying hello in flags, it passed by dozens of battles.
When there were no other ships around, the soldiers on the ship rinsed the bloody Gandoli soldiers' zither suits in the sea water. In the sunlight, the zither suits were quickly dried.
The sun finally sank westward, and dozens of fully armed soldiers brought by a fishing boat to hide in the cabin of the patrol boat. The patrol boat dragged the fishing boat back towards Palembang.
The reason why Han Duya chose to return at this time was to use the dull sky to cover up the hull that was too deep to drift.
The patrol ship had just entered Palembang when the sun was only left with a trace of light in the horizon, but the water gate had fallen and closed.
The people on the boat began to shout loudly to the defenders at the water gate: "Open the door, we are ships going out to patrol, and we have delayed our time to return to the city because of the incident. Let us enter the city quickly!"
The person who called was one of the three prisoners, and some of the defenders at the top of the city recognized them. One of the defenders shouted loudly to the city: "Why are you back? If you come back two quarters of an hour later, you will be counted as missing ships!"
"Hey, it's a long story. We ran into a suspicious ship and chased him a long way before catching up. After catching up, we found out that it was a fishing boat selling black goods. These guys were slaughtered by us and even the ship cargo was confiscated." The answerer said and pointed to the fishing boat dragged behind.
The defenders at the Water Gate did not have any suspicion, but just shouted the order according to the rules. After the other party answered, the Water Gate slowly opened, and the patrol boat dragged the "seized" fishing boat into Palembang City.
After entering the city, the defenders routinely inspected the fishing boat and found that there were indeed a lot of blood stains inside, and there were really a lot of "black goods" in the cabin. However, they did not find that the patrol boat in front had an unusually deep draft...
