Chapter 1955: Meeting an old friend in a foreign land
Under the threat of death, the pirates reacted quickly and ran away, but how could they with two legs outrun a four-legged war horse?
"What's going on? Why did they retreat?" When the captain saw the pirates successfully ascending the hillside, he was suddenly excited.
After fighting for a long time, he promised countless benefits, some of which he had no way of fulfilling.
Fortunately, he finally defeated the opponent!
As a result, before the smile on his face bloomed, he saw the pirates who had just climbed up the hillside running back desperately like waves crashing on the rocks.
"Send the order! Send the order!"
"Attack! Attack!" the captain drew his sword, waved it angrily and shouted.
But before he could finish venting, the people around him immediately exclaimed
"Cavalry! It's cavalry!"
The anger on the captain's face disappeared instantly, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead. A large number of cavalry were seen pouring down from the hillside like a tide.
Once the fleeing pirates were caught up by the cavalry, they were easily submerged by the tide and disappeared directly into the tide of cavalry.
"Sir, let's go!" The person next to him immediately yelled, and without caring about offending the captain, he directly pulled him and retreated to the seaside.
The captain was also frightened to death by the sudden cavalry. He was originally trembling and unable to control himself, but in the end he was pulled away by two of his men.
The captain reacted immediately and yelled, "Let me go, I will fight them to the death!"
When the two men heard this, they were immediately frightened out of their wits.
Those cavalry were like the tide, their numbers alone could crush them to death. Why fight to the death? Wasn't this asking them to die in vain?
The two of them did not dare to let go. They held the captain tightly and ran away to the seaside without any explanation.
The captain also yelled to encourage him, just to show off. In fact, he ran faster than his two men. In the end, he even broke free from their hands, ran to the beach alone, jumped on the boat, and drove the boat toward
The big boat rowed away.
The first mate on the ship saw something was wrong and quickly ordered the cannon to be fired.
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
Three consecutive shots passed by, and three pillars of earth flew up in front of the cavalry.
The cavalry immediately reined in their horses and slowed down, no longer pursuing the pirates.
On Yu Qian's side, they couldn't escape far with two seriously injured people, and were soon overtaken by the cavalry.
Faced with this situation, Yu Qian had no choice but to put down the thunderbolt and raise his hands to surrender.
Fortunately, after the cavalry saw that they gave up resistance, they did not attack them directly, but turned in a circle to surround them.
"Brother Yu" Yang Qing stared at the cavalry surrounding them with an ugly expression.
Yu Qian shook his head slightly at him and sighed, "They did not attack us directly. It seems that the other party has no intention of killing us for the time being. Let's take a look first. If the other party can talk, that would be the best."
"Okay." Yang Qing nodded immediately and raised his hand.
As long as we can still talk, there is hope.
These people may not be of much value to these cavalry. They are only a few dozen people. How much are dozens of slaves worth?
What's more, when it comes to work, they can't compare to slaves.
If you can pay some price and let these cavalry let them go, that would be the best thing.
The cavalry gradually stopped, but still surrounded Yu Qian tightly.
Suddenly, the cavalry separated on both sides to make way for a passage.
When Yu Qian saw it, he immediately understood that this was the leader of the other party. Just when Yu Qian was about to tell the prepared manuscript, a pure Ming Dynasty Mandarin suddenly came into his ears. .??.
"Are you gentlemen from the Ming Dynasty Royal Academy?"
Yu Qian immediately looked at Yang Qing. Both of their eyes were filled with shock, and an extremely ridiculous feeling arose in their hearts.
Tens of thousands of miles away, in this wild land, surrounded by heavy cavalry, they actually heard pure Ming Dynasty official language?
"Could it be the cavalry from Xinming? Could it be that they have already arrived at Xinming?"
The thought just came to Yu Qian's mind, and he immediately shook his head to deny it. No, the person speaking did not look like a Ming Dynasty person at all. And none of the cavalry around him was a Ming Dynasty person.
If it were Xin Ming, I'm afraid any cavalry would have recognized them long ago when they saw his clothes, and would not have chased them or surrounded them.
"You? Who are you?" Yu Qian looked at the person who spoke doubtfully.
But this person was extremely happy and quickly gestured to Yu Qian and said, "I, ah, I"
He lowered his head suddenly, and then he saw the long tanned leather apron he was wearing, and then he realized what he was doing.
He quickly pulled off his apron, revealing the blue gown underneath, bowed his hands and bowed to Yu Qian and others, "Student Qu Yuan, hello to all the gentlemen of the academy!"
When Yu Qian and others saw the green gown on Qu Yuan, they were all stunned.
They are very familiar with the green shirts of the academy. During the years when everyone studied in the academy, they all wore green shirts.
.
Everyone recognized at a glance that the blue shirt Qu Yuan was wearing was a genuine academy green shirt. And although it seemed that everyone wore the same academy green shirt, there were marks in some special places.
Yu Qian glanced briefly and saw the mark on this man's green shirt, which was the word "Qu Yuan".
In other words, the person in front of me is actually an academy student?
He doesn't look like a Ming Dynasty man, but he is a real academy student, and he is still thousands of miles away, and he is galloping around with hundreds of cavalry.
Yu Qian suddenly remembered something his teacher once mentioned to him, and suddenly blurted out with his eyes widened, "Are you really Qu Yuan? Are you from Yin Di'an in America?"
Someone in Qu Yuan knew about him, so he came forward happily, bowed his hands respectfully to Yu Qian and said, "Sir, you are really knowledgeable. May I ask your name?"
Yu Qian twitched the corner of his mouth, shook his head quickly and said, "It's not that I'm knowledgeable, but I heard the teacher mention you."
"Teacher?" Qu Yuan was confused for a moment and quickly asked, "May I ask sir, who is the teacher?"
"Prince Han Du." Yu Qian said directly without hesitation. He had a hunch that the Qu Yuan in front of him must be related to the teacher.
Sure enough, when he heard Han Du's name, Qu Yuan burst into tears.
"It turns out that my benefactor's disciple dared to ask, sir, how is my benefactor?"
"Okay, the teacher is very good"
Yu Qian's face twitched. He never thought that he had taken great pains to get rid of the teacher's control and ran to the American continent tens of thousands of miles away. But when he encountered danger, he still relied on the teacher's face to survive.
his life.
Seeing this situation, everyone felt like fellow villagers meeting fellow villagers tens of thousands of miles away.
