Chapter 19: I die for the knife, man for the fish

"Which is the Black Water Dragon?" Zhu Jun narrowed his eyes and coldly glanced at the dark water thief under the school stage.

The pirates looked at each other and heard Zhu Jun's tone. It was obvious that they had a bad intention. They couldn't help but mutter in their hearts, "Didn't they say that the surrenderers will not be killed?" Why did they suddenly change their minds?

Under the school stage, several Jinyiwei had pulled out a man from the pirates and slapped him a few times. Jin Chundao held his neck and asked, "Dog, which one is the Black Water Dragon?"

"I...I...I don't know." The pirate looked back at the black thieves behind him in fear and replied stammeringly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the blade on the pirate's throat had gently scratched, and the sword light flashed, and the pirate's head had fallen bloodily on the hands of the Jinyiwei. The whole killing method was clean and neat. After a moment, several soldiers wrapped the body and bloody head tightly with white cloth and transported it to a large pit not far away to bury it.

The pirates looked away and saw a large pit dozens of feet long dug out in the distance, enough to bury hundreds of corpses. They couldn't help but feel scared, their faces were like earth-colored, and they were sank on the ground like lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The Jinyiwei made the same move, pulled out a pirate from the thieves and continued to ask: "Who is the Black Water Dragon? Do you say it?"

"Say, I'll say!" The pirate thought of the corpse just now, and his face turned pale. He quickly pointed at a black-faced man in the pirates and said, "He is the Black Water Dragon."

"Very good, what's your name?" Jinyiwei grinned and smiled at the pirate.

"The brothers who make money on the water call me an octopus." The octopus felt his calves tremble in disobedience. The group of ferocious demons on the opposite side were smiling when they killed people. They probably wouldn't be able to survive after being caught. The octopus swallowed and glanced at the brothers kneeling behind him from the corner of his eyes. He felt even more regretful. He blamed himself for his unrestrained words just now. He was frightened by these evil demons and confessed the head. Even if these evil demons spared their lives, would these brothers at sea let him go?

"Very good, come on, take down the Black Water Dragon." The Jinyiwei smiled at the octopus, and then several Jinyiwei, who were like wolves and tigers, dragged the Black Water Dragon out of the crowd, took the two to the school stage together, and ordered them to kneel down.

"The emperor, the bandit leader Hei Shui Jiao, and the bandits and octopus brought here."

Zhu Jun sneered and said, "Slay the bandit leader Hei Shui Jiao first."

"Abide by the order!" Before Hei Shui Jiao could react and beg for mercy, the Jinyiwei standing behind him had already raised his sword and fell. The long sword flashed. Hei Shui Jiao groaned and was already in a different place. Someone behind him had a white bag and dragged the body of the Black Shui Jiao away at an extremely fast speed.

"Grandpa Emperor, please spare me." The octopus felt a chill on his back, and then smelled a heavy blood. A bunch of blood spurted out from the neck of the Black Water Dragon, and hurriedly cried and begged for mercy.

"I don't plan to kill you, why are you begging for mercy?" Zhu Jun was kind to the octopus. He continued: "This time you gave the bandit leader and made great contributions. From then on, I will entrust you to be the chief of a hundred households in the navy and take charge of a sea boat."

"Ah?" All the pirates couldn't help but be surprised. They were still full of thoughts just now and suddenly realized that this emperor was not killing all the emperor, but just killing the thief.

Obedient children give candy and disobedient children to slap them. This trick is effective for little kids and also for pirates.

Zhu Jun asked again: "Who is Sha Tongtian, the thief??"

The pirates looked at each other again. This time, they were no longer panic, but hesitant. Betraying their brothers is a taboo for pirates, but their lives seemed to be more important. After a while, a pirate stood up and pointed to Sha Tongtian's way of kneeling not far away: "He is Sha Tongtian, the head of Tanshui Village."

It was still the same trick. Sha Tongtian beheaded and the identified pirate was granted the title of a hundred households.

What Zhu Jun wants is not a talent who is proficient in naval warfare. All he wants is to actually control these warships and pirates. Therefore, the original bandit leader must be eliminated to reduce their influence on pirates. All the new leaders must be the pirates who betrayed the bandit leader. These people have violated the taboos of pirates and are notorious among pirates. The only way to survive is to rely on their own big tree. Therefore, for Zhu Jun, these pirates who betrayed the bandit leader are the most loyal. In a sense, they have become one with Zhu Jun's destiny, prosper together and lose together.

Next, we identified several other bandit leaders. Everything went smoothly. We have to admit that people who are greedy and afraid of death can catch them everywhere.

After the bandit leader was cleaned up, five pirate commissions who betrayed the bandit leader were also selected. Seeing that the fire was almost done, Zhu Jun pointed to the bandits in the school and said, "From now on, I want to establish a naval army, and use Liu Er as the commander of the navy, and the other five 100 households to assist. At the same time, recruit sailors and sailors. You will still return to their respective ships and perform their duties. You will receive one tael of silver every month and will never be owed. If anyone does not follow, there will be no mercy to kill."

When the water thieves heard Zhu Jun say this, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. They thought that this little life would be saved. As for the bullshit navy, let's talk about it. When I board the boat, the sky is high and the sea is wide, what the emperor will be afraid of you?

So the thieves beat the oars and said respectfully, and promised Zhu Jun all their loyalty.

Zhu Jun sneered. The pirates' guarantee is no different from farting. How could he trust them easily? When everyone calmed down, he continued: "Since that's the case, where is Liu Er, the commander of the navy?"

"I'm here." Liu Er went to the school with an excited look on his face to salute Zhu Jun, and picked up a high-ranking official for nothing. What is it not a big joy for a little person like Liu Er who was originally at the helm of the pirates?

Zhu Jun said loudly: "You bring five hundred households and General Zhang Youde to lead the soldiers to Jiulong Island to bring back the families of all the water masters. They will be your brothers and sisters in the future, so don't make things difficult for them. As for the families of the bandit leader..." Zhu Jun's eyes sterned and said ruthlessly: "The Ming Dynasty established its country with benevolence, but I cannot do the kindness of a woman. You must know that wildfires cannot burn it all, and the spring breeze will blew again, so these people don't have to bring them back."

The pirates couldn't help but feel frightened. Taking their families here was like becoming hostages of Zhu Jun. As long as the pirates wanted to rebel, they had to die all their families. This bitch was so cruel that with a hostage in hand, let alone being a cattle and a horse, even if they blocked the knife and arrow for him, they had to bite the bullet and poke his mother. If they didn't go, they would die all their families. I pity my big-footed wife and the baby who was only three years old.

Zhu Jun looked proud and killed the pirate leader, promoted the traitors among the pirates to let them manage the pirates for themselves, and then took the pirates' families back to the shore as hostages. He was not afraid of anyone daring to rebel. To deal with these desperate people, he could only use this method to temporarily gather them, and in the future they would be trained to give them a stable life, pay their wages on time, and after the rewards and punishments were clearly distinguished, he would not be afraid that they would not give up on themselves.

What is the spirit of domineering? It means that I control the lives of your family. I have food to support you. When I am happy, you can make a fortune and get promoted. When I am angry, you will die all your family.

With these, they will be afraid of you and respect you. They will try their best to please you, and will be willing to be in trouble for you and live a life and death for you.

If you want to use the so-called brotherhood to subdue these desperate people, unfortunately, maybe they will turn against each other tomorrow. Because in the eyes of most people, so-called loyalty is simply worthless compared to their own family, not to mention that they have to take the life of the whole family.

"The subordinate's order!" Liu Er understood Zhu Jun's intention and led the five pirates who betrayed the leader and Zhang Youde to shout and shout.

Zhu Jun stood up solemnly, stepped down from the school platform step by step, walked in front of the pirates with a calm face, and said, "Pirates have pirate rules, and I naturally have my rules. Since you are willing to vote for me, the Ming Navy, from now on, some rules must be abide by. I have always rewarded and punished properly. If someone violates my rules, he will never give up easily. If everyone performs well, there will naturally be no less rewards. Without further ado, you will all be reorganized in the valley within three months. If anyone dares to do it perfunctorily, don't blame me for being polite at that time."

Zhu Jun gave a warning, and the pirates stretched their necks and listened carefully. Everyone understood that this evil spirit was not easy to fool. Now the family is in his hands. If they really messed with him, they might use their family to kill chickens and scare monkeys. This is not a joke.

"Did you hear it clearly?" Zhu Jun yelled.

"Young people understand!" The pirates shouted loudly.

"What did you hear clearly?"

"The young people are loyal to the emperor's grandfather and never dare to disobey..."

"Young people are cattle and horses for the emperor, and they will never dare to complain..."

After a brief silence of the pirates, they answered in a mess.
