The Jiangnan gentry have been standing for hundreds of years, with profound foundations and powerful forces. Among them are the Langya Wang family, the "king and horse share the world", the Lanling Xiao family, who have been emperors for many generations, and other super wealthy families, such as the Xie family and the Yuan family, the leaders of other overseas Chinese surnames. As well as Gu Lu, Zhu Zhang, who have dominated Jiangdong for hundreds of years, which one is Yi's generation?
At present, the empire is at peace, and each major family has a gentle and gentle school of poetry and calligraphy. However, if war breaks out in China, these families can immediately pull up an army of their own, or unite to support the Ming Dynasty, or fight separately to protect themselves. Family business, even founding a country and becoming emperor to compete in the world.
How can we take this fleet of ships lightly? It is impossible to say that if we collide with each other, our heads will be bruised and blood will flow, and the robbery will not be completed, but we will seek death.
That's why Mr. Wang shouted so impassionedly, "Who dares to fight with his life for this piece of wealth?" Because the Jiangnan gentry was so powerful, who knows how many private soldiers from each family were deployed on the boat? In order for the brothers under him to survive, this fleet had to be snatched; but facing such a powerful noble clan, the outcome was really unpredictable.
The choice may be life or death.
Being a pirate is not easy...
A person beside him slowly stood up and said in a deep voice: "At present, fleets from various countries are sailing back and forth along the waterways opened by the navy. Even if we have the intention, who dares to do it rashly? Facing the fleet of the Jiangnan nobles, the risk is very high , but if you are caught up by the navy on the waterway, you will die or not! I will go with Mr. Wang!"
As soon as he spoke, someone stood up and said loudly: "We call them pirates, but in fact they are worse than thieves! There are so many cargo ships coming and going to Huating Town all day long, but they can only watch from a distance and dare not get close. In the first half step, I was afraid that I would be eaten alive by the navy. If this continues, everyone will starve to death this winter. Is it possible that one person will hand out a net and everyone will go to the sea to fish? As long as there is a glimmer of hope in this trip, then we must must go!"
"That's right, I'm willing to go with you!"
"I'll go with you too!"
"Niang Dipi! How about the Jiangnan nobles? If you don't go and grab it, they will all starve to death. If you go, you still have a slight chance of winning. At worst, both the left and right will die. Are you afraid of a ball? Let's go together!"
"Let's go together!"
Dozens of people were shouting and noisy in the hall, and blood was boiling.
Seeing this, Boss Wang clenched his fists tightly, then raised his head high, and said loudly: "Although we are not from the same family, and some of us even have hatred, but at this critical moment of life and death, I hope you will put aside your prejudices, at least now Unite as one! We are strong when we are united, we are weak when we are divided. When we work together to get back the money, food, and supplies for breeding, we can discuss our grudges! Right now, if anyone rebels and kills behind his back, he is with the big guys over there. If he can't survive, don't blame someone for being ruthless to him!"
Among the small group of pirates, his group of pirates who survived the "three major gangs" is considered to be the strongest group. He has strong fists and strong words. In addition, he is always steady and righteous, and is very respected by others. At this moment, he said With such words that made everyone put aside their past grudges, there were naturally a lot of people who responded.
"Boss Wang is right. If we can't grab the boat of the Jiangnan nobles, we will starve to death. If anyone is causing trouble at this time and drags everyone down, I will kill him!"
In the face of interests, many bandits unexpectedly achieved a rare unity, "united and fought hard, and always faced the outside world"...
Boss Wang nodded with satisfaction, and then said: "The so-called unification of orders and prohibitions, we are not subordinate to each other. If we go in such a swarm, I am afraid that we will lose our ground in advance and retreat, and our offense and defense will be inconsistent. It is really a taboo for military strategists, and it is a way to die.
.Someone suggested that we elect a leader to direct this operation with full authority. Once the candidate is established, no one can disobey the order, otherwise, we will be punished together!"
When everyone heard it, it made sense!
A snake cannot survive without a head. Without a leader to give orders, wouldn't it be a mess?
I really can’t tell. Listening to Mr. Wang’s talk, is it possible that he is still a scholar?
Hello readers!
At least he has read Sun Tzu's Art of War and knows how to organize troops. Even if he is not as good as the Jiangnan gentry who have memorized the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, he is still a big difference, right?
"Boss Wang is right. You are from one of the three major gangs and have a lot of experience. Why don't you be the leader?"
"That's right. Except for you, Boss Wang, no one else is convinced!"
"That's right, this position of leader belongs to you, Boss Wang!"
…
Seeing the small group of pirate leaders who had been arranged by him spare no effort to promote themselves, and soon got the approval of most people in the hall, Boss Wang couldn't restrain the ecstasy in his heart, and the flesh on his cheeks jumped.
, I almost couldn’t hide my triumphant laughter...
What a lucky turn of events!
When the three major gangs were surrounded and suppressed by the navy, I, a fish that slipped through the net, survived. I thought that from now on I would just live with my tail between my legs and live a human life. However, I didn't want God to trick people. I couldn't be the little leader of the three major gangs.
, there is actually a chance to become the leader of such a large group of pirates!
Although few of the people in front of me really believe in him, what does that matter?
As long as you get this great reputation and plunder the money, food and goods of the Jiangnan nobles, you can win over several pirate gangs who are usually close to you when distributing the goods. Whoever is willing to follow you will get more money, and whoever dares to object
Just kill them all!
By that time, are these pirates still dormant under their wings?
This is definitely not inferior to any of the "three major gangs" in the past...
From now on, I have the final say in this vast sea!
Everyone unanimously elected Boss Wang as the leader and led everyone to plunder the merchant fleet of the Jiangnan nobles. Naturally, some people were dissatisfied during the process, but in the face of many people who were incited to side with Boss Wang, the one who jumped out of his wits at this time
Say "I don't accept it"?
If your brain doesn't work well, it's useless to put it on your neck. Someone will rush up and cut it off...
Boss Wang was high-spirited and waved his hand: "In that case, I will lick my face and reluctantly take this position... Next, we will immediately inventory the ships and weapons, make preparations, and set off to catch up with the merchant fleet of the Jiangnan nobles.
, steal the special girl!"
"Hahaha! That's right, grab the special girl!"
"Just looting the fleet is not enough. When the day comes, Boss Wang will lead us to land and snatch all the pretty ladies from the Jiangnan noble families, so that we can have a taste of being ladies!"
"You can pull me down! Those girls are all pampered and spoiled, and they don't want to touch the beauty of spring water. You are so ugly that you would be sad to see a ghost. Why don't you scare those sweet girls half to death?"
"Hehe! You can't say that. Those children from aristocratic families who spend their days walking birds and playing with dogs all have silver-like wax gun tips, which are useless. How do you know that those girls have tasted the taste of such a big iron gun?
Son, won’t you follow us wholeheartedly to death?”
"You have such a big face. I'm afraid that if that little girl is not scared to death by you, she will be fucked to death by you. You old devil, just live your life with your arms around the corpse..."
There was a commotion in the lobby.
A group of pirates started daydreaming and had all kinds of imaginative thoughts...
Boss Wang didn't stop him, but watched with great interest. He believed that this was the only way to use military morale, and everyone had to be a bit forward, otherwise who would fight to the death?
As long as the fleet of Jiangnan nobles is plundered, in the future, if you want money and people, you will be able to control the pirates in this sea area, which the "three major gangs" have not been able to do in the past.
!
At that time, His Majesty Li Er will be the emperor on land, and he will be the emperor in the sea. Wouldn't it be wonderful?

Xiao Cuo stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the huge fleet of ships behind him that connected with the sky and the clouds, and felt quite high-spirited.
Being able to become the steward elected by each major family this time and taking charge of this smuggling means that he has gained certain recognition from the upper echelons of each major family. As long as he handles this errand properly, not only can the immediate family
Among them, his status has soared, he has been cultivated more, and he has gained more favors from major families. It is impossible to say that he will enter an official career from now on...
Just when he was feeling complacent, out of the corner of his eye he saw Wang Qi with a green face and white lips walking out of the cabin and walking towards him, and an uncontrollable disgust suddenly surged into his heart.
This little brat is uneducated and arrogant. He spends all his time being arrogant as a member of a noble family. He is really not a son of a man.
The most disgusting thing is that he actually tried to seduce his own daughter!
Xiao Cuo couldn't wait to find an opportunity to cut this little bastard into pieces and throw it into the sea to feed the fish...
