"When you go to Japan this time, you bring this letter to Tokugawa Ieyasu. Ask him to send five thousand elite troops to land on the coast of Shandong. And tell him to strictly enforce military discipline. All the money of the Chen Hailong family can be taken away as trophies, but if

I will never agree to rob the people."

Not to rob the people, this is Li Xiao's bottom line. He must make it clear to Tokugawa Ieyasu that this bottom line cannot be trampled.

"What will happen if Tokugawa Ieyasu doesn't send troops?" Ai Husheng asked after taking Li Xiao's letter.

"Then just tell him that I will go find Mouri Terumoto."

"Understood!"

In any case, Tokugawa Ieyasu would not see the relationship between Li Xiao and the Maori family go any further. Even for this reason, he would help Li Xiao send troops. What's more, the troops would not be in vain.

The Chen family and the Japanese pirates were old friends. When they were in Korea, Chen Lin led the Chen family's Ming army to fight against the Japanese pirates. In terms of the number of Japanese pirates killed, Chen Lin was still above Yi Sun-shin.

After working as a pirate all his life and fishing in Shandong for so many years, the Chen family still had some wealth. Li Xiao promised to use the Chen family's money as trophies. This temptation was not too small.

"My subordinates will definitely not disappoint the master, and will definitely help the Japanese soldiers land ashore as soon as possible."

"I originally wanted you to rest for a few more days, but there's nothing I can do! There is no one more suitable than you to go to Japan."

"Actually, the injury is almost healed. With the help of Divine Doctor Li these days, my body is stronger than before."

"What's going on with Li Zhongzi and Tang Ruowang? I just saw them fighting together, like two fighting cocks." When Li Zhongzi was mentioned, Li Xiao thought of the scene he just saw in the hospital. These two guys are embarrassing.

No different than the vixen on the street.

This matter needs to be taken seriously. If you really can't pee in the same pot, it is better to separate the two old guys as soon as possible. With the temper of these two old bastards, they will have to kill them.

"The two of them are just like that. They are fighting over academic issues. But I found that Tang Ruowang is secretly learning the method of diagnosing pulses from Divine Doctor Li. Divine Doctor Li is also secretly learning from Tang Ruowang to treat trauma. I saw Divine Doctor Li about half a month ago.

He secretly used needles and threads to sew people's wounds. He also knew how to use alcohol to disinfect the needles and threads!

Of course, there must be some fighting, these two guys are just a pair of old naughty boys. The more these people live, the more they look like children. If the boss separates them now, I guess the two of them still won't do it. Haha!

"

There is nothing to say now. Li Xiao had just planned to separate them. Now it seems that the two brothers are still together and continue to collide. In war, there must be wounded soldiers.

Veterans who have been injured and returned to the battlefield are definitely an asset to the army. A hospital with superb medical skills can save the lives of soldiers to the greatest extent possible.

"Okay, let's not talk about these two living treasures. Tell us when you can leave."

"Pack up today and you can leave early tomorrow morning."

"Can you do it with your body and bones?"

"It works!"

"Leopard, I made a lot of money from this ticket. Those little Korean girls in the cabin can be sold to the Ming Dynasty for a good sum of money. How about I get one for my brother. You know that your sister-in-law doesn't have children, so you can get one back and give it to your brother.

Carrying on the family line." Haiyizi smiled playfully and patted his brother Sealzi on the shoulder.

These brothers are all Chen Hailong's subordinates. They are serious maritime businessmen on weekdays. But when there is no one at sea, they become the most feared hungry wolves on the sea.

These two brothers were so evil that they could hardly escape the ship they were targeting. They would go over there at night to join gangs, and then plunder the women on the ship and sell them. The men would burn the ship together, even if they were discovered.

There was nothing but a pile of charred corpses, and no one could identify them.

They have been walking on the sea for ten years, and these two brothers have accumulated a lot of blood debt. But because of their evil intentions and ruthless hands, they did not leave anyone alive every time they were robbed. Not many people know their true identities, and Chen Hailong is guarding Daming. Brother

Whether they were in the Ming Dynasty or the Korean Kingdom of Japan, the two children lived a very prosperous life.

This time, they robbed another North Korean merchant ship. As usual! After robbing the goods, they locked the man in the warehouse on the bottom floor. Then they set a fire and burned the ship into a blazing torch. In the darkness, the burning fire can

spread far.

"Look at what you said, brother, we brothers started this business together. One or two little girls are nothing, but you have to be careful when playing. Their mothers and fathers have been burned to death by us.

If I give you a knife in one night, brother, you will have to go to the palace to find an errand." Sealzi looked at Haiyizi and said "hey" and "hey" with a bad smile.

"I know you can't spit out ivory from your mouth." Looking at the gradually brightening sky, Haiyangzi kicked Sealzi.

"It's not far from Phi Island, we have to go around."

"By the way, the commander is angry with Li Xiao from Liaodong. Let's just take this opportunity to take a sneak peek at Pidao. If Pidao is not prepared, we can do it secretly. I'm sure the commander knows.

I will praise our brothers for their abilities."

"Are you okay? The Jurchen Tatars fought hard for their lives and lost all their troops. Just our two boats? It's safer to take a detour. Li Xiao in Liaodong is not something we can provoke. Their

It’s not like you haven’t seen the warship, it’s a five-masted ship!

The cannons are so thick that they are densely packed on three levels. When our boat encounters others, it only goes into the sea to feed the fish."

"You kid were scared by that ship, how could it be so...! Damn it!" Haiyizi pointed his finger in the direction of Pi Island in the distance. Two five-masted ships were sailing out of the port under the increasingly bright light.

.The white sail shadow is so obvious in the skylight.

"Damn it, they're stuck in the channel. If we want to get past, we have to drive forward."

"It's okay, we are a merchant ship now. There are so many merchant ships floating on the sea, Li Xiao can't just sink them in sight. The course remains unchanged!" Seal Zi pulled away the helmsman and took the helm himself.

Li Xiu handed the telescope in his hand to Chen Fu's nephew Chen Laohu. He had just replenished a batch of ammunition from Pi Island. Unexpectedly, he encountered two ships as soon as he left Pi Island.

"Is it Chen Hailong's ship?" Li Xiu asked Chen Laohu while looking at the sea.

"It should be! Their anchor is a three-claw anchor, not the four-claw anchor that everyone is using. This is still a rule set by Chen Laoshuai. A four-claw anchor is easy to catch, but a three-claw anchor rarely catches the anchor!

Also, the anchors of ordinary ships are at the bow. But on the Chen family's ship, the anchor chain has to be moved further into the ship. The mast and the sail are also similar. I saw it. There is a leopard pattern on the sail corner, which is a seal and a seal.

Oyster brothers."

The fortress is easiest to break from the inside. Anyone who knows the ships under Chen Hailong's command must be Chen Hailong's original subordinate. Chen Laohu was specially sent to Li Xiu by Li Xiao. Before following Chen Fu to surrender to Li Xiao, this guy worked at sea for twenty years.

Years of business without capital. He basically recognizes all the ships under Chen Hailong's command.

"What a fucking coincidence. I saw them just as we drove out." Li Xiu had also heard of these two brothers. Even within the Chen Hailong pirate group, these two were known for their ruthlessness. Li Xiu did not

Come to think of it, I didn't even turn a corner when I came out of Pi Island, and I met these two notorious guys directly.

"The other party is approaching us, and its speed is not very fast." Chen Laohu held a telescope.

"Enter combat mode and sink them. This time, we don't want to survive."

The sailors were all veterans who followed Li Xiu from north to south, and then from south to north. When Li Xiu gave the order, they immediately heard the sound of commands. The cabin was full of the sound of calibrating and adjusting the muzzle of the cannon. And then

Charge the powder into the muzzle and stuff the shell into the muzzle.

"Brother, there seems to be something wrong. It seems to me that they want to do what we want." Haiyizi looked at the suddenly accelerating battleship in the distance, and his heart suddenly rose in his throat.

Chen Hailong's plan to do something about Li Xiao has been rumored among them for more than a day or two. Now that they encountered Li Xiao's warship, the other party seemed to be very hostile. This had to put the two brothers on guard!

"No way, we are a merchant ship. We don't have cannons on the ship. There are so many ships in the sea, how can they recognize us."

"Have you forgotten? Old Superintendent Chen Fu has voted for Li Xiao. Is there anyone who is more familiar with the Marshal's ship than him? Your Seal's sign is hung on the sail of the ship. Only a blind man can't recognize it."

"What a fool! Turn the helm, let's go!" You can't beat him if you fight him. If he can turn the helm now and escape to shallow water, or directly escape ashore to North Korea, it would be better than being sent to the bottom of the water by those big ships!

The five-masted ship is really too big. If you encounter a small ship like theirs, you don't need to fire a cannon, even if you ram it with a ship, you can send them to the bottom of the sea.

"Second Master! Seal Zi is trying to escape!"

"This small flat-headed grasshopper boat dares to compete with my five-masted ship. It's looking for death! Catch them and kill them without mercy." Li Xiu gave a cold order. He and Liu Laoliu had two five-masted ships on the left and one on the right.

, and chased after Sealzi.

The five-masted ship has five huge sails, and there are many small sails on both sides to adjust the wind direction. In terms of sailing speed, it is faster than Seal's single-sailed grasshopper boat.

In less than two hours, the five-masted ship caught up with Seal Zi.

"Brother, they are catching up." Haiyizi was so anxious that he almost went crazy. He was now very envious of those flying Haimaozi.

"I damn well know that our ship can't outrun them. Just hold on, there's a shoal not far ahead. Their draft is deep, and they'll run aground as soon as they reach the shoal." Seal Zi clutched the tiller tightly, his eyes already like

It's as red as blood. If you can't run away today, you'll have to go to the bottom of the sea to feed the fish.

"Second Master! There is a shoal ahead. We will be stranded if we go at this speed." Chen Laohu is very familiar with the sea area in front of him. Further ahead is the North Korean coast. The draft there is much shallower than here.

"They can't run away, keep the speed." Li Xiu is no longer the junior brother who just boarded the ship two years ago.

The five-masted ship's five sails were swollen by the sea wind, and the huge wind force carried the five-masted ship forward like an arrow. In just twenty minutes, Seal and Haoyizi were within the shooting range of the five-masted ship.

"Sign the signal and tell Liu Laoliu that he will hit the one on the left, and we will hit the one on the right. Prepare to fire!" After chasing for another ten minutes, he saw that there was an offshore shoal in front of him. The water was already a little green, so Li Xiu gave the order decisively.

The five-masted ship quickly crossed the hull, and the gun commanders of each gun looked at the pirate ship in the distance through the observation hole. He stretched his arms and raised his thumbs high to measure the distance of the pirate ship.

"Fire!" Li Xiu gave the order, and Chen Laohu felt that the whole ship began to shake violently like fallen leaves in the wind. Fifteen shells were fired in the shortest time!

"Brother, there is a shoal ahead. Let's run away, let's run away. Hahaha!" Just as the boat approached the shallow sea, the seal let out a harsh and sinister laugh.

Before he could finish laughing, a shell entered his cockpit.

"Holy shit!" Seal Zi only saw a black ball smashing in, and then he heard a loud noise.

Sealzi felt like he was flying. In the sky, he saw debris flying around and the ship filled with smoke. In addition to the fragments of the ship, there were more than a dozen large living people in the sky.

The oyster was not far away from me, dancing in the air and falling downwards.

Seal Zi also wanted to dance, but when he waved his arms, he realized that his arms were only alive and his legs were only connected by a layer of skin!

"Bang!" The seal suddenly crashed into the sea water, causing a huge splash. The red blood spread along the sea water, and a shark fin came from far to near. The seal's last look in this life was a pair of pitch-black...
