Wu Hanming obeyed the order and immediately put down a clipper ship. Under the banner of Dazhou, he sent a few smart men to report first.
Here, the entire fleet is ordered to enter a state of first-level combat readiness, put into battle formation, and be ready to fight at any time!
"The right eye will indicate wealth or disaster?" Shangguan Qiji's right eyelid suddenly twitched and he felt bad. He asked Fu Yan, a Feng Shui master, whether this omen was good or bad. "
"It's a disaster." Fu Yan said with a smile, "Fat man, you look unlucky. If we are unlucky this time, it will definitely fall on you.
"Nonsense! Am I willing to come here? Did Xiao Chen force me to come? No, I feel that this flagship target is too big. I will have to move to the supply ship behind for safety." Shangguan
If Qiji retreats before the battle, he should be killed according to the law.
"Tch, it's a shame that you are still a disciple of the Shangguan family, so you are so timid? Don't worry, I will protect you. If things go wrong, I won't care about the boss and will run away with you first." Tie Kunlun said to him.
He promised.
"Pull me down, no matter how good your Qinggong is, can you still float on water?" Shangguan Qiji didn't believe it.
"Isn't there an elephant?" Fu Yan said with a smile, "With your physique, only an elephant can carry you."
Talking and laughing, everyone is still prepared to deal with all emergencies.
Xiao Chen asked Wilson to go to the fastest supply ship behind. Once something happened, the supply ship following far behind could immediately turn around and escape. If necessary, throw away everything on the ship to reduce the possibility of escape.
Still very big.
"Hey, we are friends, aren't we?" Wilson refused to leave, "When you encounter danger, you abandon your friends and run for your own life. Do you, Xiao Chen, think I am a coward?"
"Let us fight together!" He said, taking out two exquisite short guns from his arms and waving them, "God will bless us."
"Wilson, these two muskets of yours are very beautiful." Shangguan Qiji liked it very much at first sight. He took them over and looked at them carefully. "I rely on you businessmen to be really rich. They are all inlaid with precious stones. Look at you.
You don’t even need to shoot, you can blind the enemy’s eyes directly... I like it very much, give it to me."
"I will give it to you after the battle, but not now. I may still need it. You all know martial arts, but I don't, so I can only use this." Wilson said.
"Then if you die, both will belong to me?" Shangguan Qiji was greedy.
In fact, he doesn't like muskets, not at all. What he likes is the red and blue gems inlaid on the handle of the gun, which look very valuable...
"Fat man, are you okay?" Tie Kunlun looked down on his money-grubbing face, "If you have the guts, go and rob that Prince Ullman. I heard them say that this guy is very rich, and he wears gold and silver all over his body.
The gold chain around my neck alone weighs more than twenty kilograms!"
"Really?" Shangguan Qiji was tempted.
"It's true." Wu Hanming on the side said with a smile, "Prince Ulman also likes gold very much. His flagship is made of gold. I heard that the outer layer of gold armor alone cost several thousand kilograms.
Gold, even the cannonballs are made of gold and iron! So his flagship is called the Golden Battleship, and he also has a title called the Golden Prince."
"Hey! Do you think it's weird?" Shangguan Qiji suddenly started to make a fuss, "My right eye is not twitching anymore, but my left eye is twitching! It seems that this trip is not about disaster, but about getting rich!"
"
"Fat brother, do you also like gold?" Ling'er said.
"What are you talking about?" Shangguan Qiji said loudly, "As long as a person likes gold, if he doesn't like gold, then he is not a human being!"
"Okay! Don't worry, fat brother, I will definitely take off all the gold from that golden prince Ulman and give it to you!" Ling'er said.
"I recognize this girl!" Shangguan Qiji hugged Ling'er and kissed her hard on her little face, "I will be your brother from now on. The more gold you rob me, the better for us two brothers."
The closer we get!"
"Keke!" Ling'er laughed happily.
This makes Xiao Chen a little unhappy. He is your real brother. What about me?
In the afternoon, the messenger sent to inform them came back, followed by another fast ship flying the flag of Java.
But Ullmann also sent an envoy to return the visit.
"Dear Mr. Xiao." When the envoy saw Xiao Chen, he knelt down on one knee, put one hand on his chest, showing that he was united in heart, and said loudly, "I, Si Du, on behalf of our Prince Ullman, I would like to express my highest regards to you.
My respect! The prince has hosted a sumptuous banquet in Jilong Port. Please Sir Xiao and all of you, please give the prince this little face!"
This guy speaks Chinese very fluently. It seems that he might have been a Chinese at one time.
To everyone's surprise, Prince Ulman not only did not send troops to fight, but also held a banquet to entertain everyone. Such a warm invitation... must be rejected.
Who knows if this is the Hongmen Banquet?
"Okay! Then you also pay homage to Prince Ullman for me, and I will definitely attend the banquet as promised!" Xiao Chen agreed.
"Thank you Mr. Xiao for the favor. I will go back and tell the prince now so that he will be happy." Si Du, the messenger, is really good at talking.
"What the hell is trying to harm me!" Xiao Chen said angrily, "I have no enmity with him, and he actually did this to me. This damn thing is so boring!"
As soon as this statement came out, everyone looked at each other, a little confused.
Although we all feel that Ullman may have evil intentions, without any evidence, it would be too arbitrary for you to directly assert that he wants to kill you, right?
Are you not allowed to really want to treat me?
None of them knew that Xiao Chen had quietly invaded the consciousness of the messenger Si Du just now. This situation that made him angry was learned from Si Du's consciousness.
Damn Ullman wanted to avenge his dead ghost Seba, and he didn't take Dazhou into his eyes at all, because Dazhou was thousands of miles away, so even if he killed some kind of governor eunuch
, what can Da Zhou do to him? Send a navy to come to me to accuse me? I don’t believe you, Da Zhou, have this strength!
In fact, Ullman's relationship with Seba is not that good, but he just wants this face!
As long as Xiao Chen is killed, his prestige in the country will definitely increase greatly in the future, and who in the surrounding countries would dare not to respect this prince after learning about this?
I dare to kill even the governor of Zhou Dynasty, so I ask you if you are afraid?
Besides, it is very easy to kill Xiao Chen. As long as I use a little trick, I can easily capture him.
It doesn't matter if Xiao Chen doesn't come. He has already asked the fleet to block the Malacca Strait, and in order to prevent Xiao Chen and the others from taking a detour from the south, he has also sent another fleet to wait on the road that Xiao Chen and the others must pass through.
In other words, Xiao Chen has no way to escape.
Therefore, Xiao Chen has no other choice but to surrender obediently...
