Xu Xing and the pirates were still discussing enthusiastically about facing the enemy, and Hai Dongqing's thoughts were still flying...
Lin Jue and Gao Muqing of Guishan Island encountered a hurricane and were probably buried in the sea. But Hai Dongqing didn't forgive his hatred at all, so he issued an order to see people alive and dead, even if they found the body of this disaster star.
, I also want to crush him to ashes in public to satisfy the hatred in my heart. Of course, it is better for him to be alive, so I can better control him, so that he can't live or die, so that he can spend his whole life in pain.
Only by doing so can you dispel the hatred in your heart.
But tonight, he got another shocking news. Although he had already learned that Lin Jue and Gao Muqing came to the island to pretend to surrender in order to lure officers and soldiers to attack the island. But in fact, when he learned the news, Hai Dongqing was not too surprised.
He cared about this matter. Knowing the identity of the two of them, he would simply kill them. Hai Dongqing didn't care at all about the attack by officers and soldiers.
First, it was confirmed that there was no large-scale gathering of officers and soldiers, and only the Ning Haijun Force was dispatched. How could Hai Dongqing take such a small number of troops to heart? Secondly, with the hurricane, Hai Dongqing knew that this was the case.
The battle can no longer be fought. Who dares to stay on the sea when a hurricane breaks out? Even his subordinates, who travel to the sea all day long, have to stay on the island and wait for the hurricane to pass. There is no need to mention the officers and soldiers.
.
Therefore, if this battle breaks out, it will be the unlucky officers and soldiers, and they will lose. The failure to fight is their fault, and it is because the hurricane helped them. Hai Dongqing is not worried about this.
However, tonight he got the news that the officers and soldiers started an attack despite strong winds and waves. There are specific signals for transmitting news between islands, and fire is used as a signal at night. If a fire breaks out, it will be the sign that the island has fallen.
signal. And the news coming tonight is exactly the news that the island has fallen.
The outermost Crescent Island in the northwest was blazing with flames. Half an hour later, the Barracuda Island, which was more than eight miles away from Crescent Island, was also blazing with flames. This showed that both islands had been conquered. And the news also passed between the islands.
The transmission of the fire signal was captured and reported by the bandit soldiers at the top of Yizhu Qingtian on the east side of Peach Blossom Island. Only then did Hai Dongqing realize that his judgment was wrong, and Guan Bing actually started to attack this time. Then,
Hai Dongqing also suddenly realized that he was unable to issue a rescue order because all the small boats could not go into the sea. Only a few large boats were available, but they were too few and useless.
Only then did Hai Dongqing realize that someone had caught his weak point.
This was a premeditated, carefully arranged, real siege that identified its own weaknesses and took advantage of the cover of hurricane weather.
…
The discussion in the Juyi Hall has been going on for more than an hour, and everyone has already said almost everything that needs to be said. When everyone started to express their loyalty, they began to curse the officers and soldiers for being shameless, saying that they would teach them a lesson.
When I said these words, I actually ran out of things to say.
Military advisor Xu Xing didn't want to hear these useless expressions of loyalty. He finally turned sideways, leaned his neck towards Hai Dongqing's ear and whispered: "Island owner, what do you think of what we discussed just now? Give it to your brothers.
After saying a few words, brothers will go and actively prepare for defense matters." Hai Dongqing finally slowly sat up straight from his chair, and scanned the whole place with a pair of falcon-like eyes. All the leaders who looked at him looked at the audience.
He quickly lowered his head. Although the island owner looked a little tired, his eyes were still gleaming and sharper than before, like two blades, making people afraid to look at them.
"What brothers just discussed... I have heard everything. Very good, the military advisor has discussed with you very well, so we will do it according to what you just discussed. I only have a few words to explain to the brothers." Haidong Qing
He spoke in a hoarse voice.
Everyone hurriedly straightened their backs and listened to the island owner's instructions.
"First of all, what I want to tell the brothers is that this time the officers and soldiers came well prepared, and it was by no means a trivial fight. They all used big ships, big ships that could withstand wind and waves, just to bully us in such weather.
They cannot go out to sea to fight with them, nor can they rescue each other. It can be seen that they want to eradicate us in one fell swoop. Everyone must understand this. If we are not careful this time, we will all be very likely to die."
Everyone was silent. In fact, the military advisor had said this just now, but the military advisor said it was different from the island owner. The island owner also said the same, which is not sensational. Over the years, the island owner has never encountered an enemy attack.
I have never been afraid at all, and I have never said that I am going to die, but this time the island owner said so, which shows the seriousness of the matter.
"Secondly, if the current situation continues to develop, it will be impossible to rescue the several outer islands in the northwest. It will only depend on their luck. If the officers and soldiers attack the islands at the same speed, tomorrow morning, the seven islands to the north should be
If no one can be saved, then they will approach Peach Blossom Island. This is the real purpose of their trip, they want to capture Peach Blossom Island. So, brothers, what we have to do now is to defend Peach Blossom Island and never let it go.
They landed on the island."
"But brothers, there is no need to panic. The only ones coming to attack here are the Ning Navy, plus the two thousand guards of Prince Liang's Mansion and some soldiers in the city. The number is only about ten thousand. And I have one on Tiaohua Island.
With more than 7,000 brothers, we have the advantage in terms of numbers. Moreover, we are concentrating on guarding a few docks. They want to seize the island, and we have the advantage in terms of location. They braved the hurricane to land on the island, and they must attack before the center of the hurricane arrives.
When they come to the island, every moment of delay brings them closer to death. I have never seen any ship still floating on the sea when the center of the hurricane arrives, even the largest sea ship. So, this
Above, we have taken advantage of the right time again. Take the saying from those books with bags on them: the right time, the right place and the right people, we have taken all three of the resources to win the war, and there is no chance that they can attack Peach Blossom Island. We just need to hold on.
In the next two days at most, the violent waves, strong winds and heavy rains from the center of the hurricane will arrive. By then, without us taking action, they will be buried in the sea. So, brothers, don’t be afraid, stick to the dock, and you don’t have to worry about anything."
All the pirate leaders nodded, and the island owner's words finally gave them reassurance. Everything the island owner said made sense. Although they couldn't understand the words about the right time, the right place, the right people, etc., these corresponding reasons were solid.
"Brothers, everyone must be feeling a little uneasy these days. The incident of my rebellious son being incited to rebel has made everyone panic. Brothers, there is no need to worry too much, that matter has passed. I, Haidong
Qing has experienced many storms and waves in his life. In fact, I have been mentally prepared for all this. I once met a wandering Taoist priest. He said that I was destined to commit a crime against the evil star, which would harm my family but prosper my foundation. At that time, I had a knife
I killed him because I thought he was talking nonsense. But now I understand that everything he said was true. My parents died when I was young, and now, I have no relatives around me. This is not a murder.
What is the Lone Star of Heavenly Evil? The Taoist priest is right. He said that I am prosperous in my business. Indeed, in the past twenty years, our Tiaohua Island has been so powerful that the emperors in Bianliang City have nothing to do with us. Isn’t this right?
Is this confirmed again? It can be seen that everything is God's will. God wants my family to be destroyed, and God wants my Peach Blossom Island to be immortal. It is fate. Brothers, don't worry, Peach Blossom Island will not be destroyed."
All the leaders shouted: "What the island owner said is absolutely true. Our Peach Blossom Island will not be destroyed. In the future, we will wait for the island owner to lead us into Hangzhou City and Bianliang City."
Xu Xing also stood up and said loudly: "Brothers, have you heard this? Our island owner is like a star in the sky and descends to earth. We are incredibly lucky and will definitely achieve great things. So many storms have happened to the island owner. The island owner
Everyone is so happy, why? Because the island owner is not a mortal. We are all sent by God to help the island owner achieve great things, and we will all become famous and famous forever. I propose that from now on, we will no longer call the island owner the island.
Lord, how about changing the name to 'Holy Duke'?"
"Okay, let's call him Shenggong. The military advisor is right." The leaders shouted loudly.
Xu Xing's excited face shone, and he suddenly took a few steps to kneel in front of Hai Dongqing, shouting loudly: "When the Holy Duke comes to this world, the world will change its hands."
The leaders were startled, and immediately stood up and knelt in front of Hai Dongqing, shouting: "When the Holy Duke comes to this world, the world will change its owner."
Upon seeing this, more than a hundred guards in the hall knelt down and shouted loudly. Hai Dongqing was a little dazed at first, and planned to wave his hand to stop Xu Xing's ridiculous behavior, but he swallowed the words as he spoke. The hall was full of shouts.
Although the voice of the Holy Duke was extremely confusing, and although it was as harsh as the howling of ghosts and wolves, it sounded so beautiful to my ears at this moment.
Gao Muqing, who was hiding in the side hall and watching all this through the gap in the wall, was stunned. She witnessed the birth of this 'Holy Duke' with her own eyes, and felt funny and frightened in her heart. As an observer, she suddenly realized that Hai
Dongqing's method of controlling these subordinates was so clever. After the island had just experienced a heart-wrenching chaos, everyone had been united by the Holy Duke and unanimously resisted the enemy.
In the meeting hall, the noisy scene finally ended. With the permission of the Holy Duke, everyone finally stood up and sat down again. Hai Dongqing continued to speak with a smile on his face.
"It doesn't matter whether we are holy or not, we are all brothers. We should face difficulties together and enjoy blessings together. Don't make it so complicated."
"That can't be done. There is no circle without rules. The Holy Duke will not talk about the past today. We have never known that the Holy Duke descended from the stars. Now that we know it, how can we no longer be disrespectful? Holy Duke, please continue to lecture, we are all ears." Xu Xing.
Bowed.
"Please give me a lesson from the Holy Duke." The leaders shouted in unison.
