Among the fleet that was gradually approaching, someone on the main boat pointed into the distance and shouted.
The leader was a handsome middle-aged man, wearing an official uniform, a Jinxian crown, and a sword on his waist. He also looked quite handsome. Under the shouts of the soldiers, he turned around and saw something in the distance. The leader of the vague black dot looked calm and said: "Show the command flag and order the fleet to rush in that direction!"
The ship immediately hoisted the command flag, and the two large ships in the vanguard beat the drums and rushed towards the black spot.
Taishi Ci was sitting powerlessly leaning on the ship's mast. Suddenly, he seemed to hear something. Amid the sound of the huge waves, it flickered in and out. Someone suddenly said: "This... big Han war drum??" Everyone hurriedly listened carefully, and the drum sound became louder and louder. Taishi Ci held himself tightly with one hand, used all his strength, and stood up suddenly. When he saw the big ship in the distance, he was a little in disbelief.
Wiping his eyes and looking over again, he laughed wildly. Everyone stood up and looked at the approaching ship in the distance. Listening to the familiar sound of drums, they shed tears and shouted with joy, and the drums over there The sound became more and more urgent. The leader of the fleet looked at the two large ships that suddenly appeared with some hesitation, not knowing which ships they were.
There are no civilian ships that big. Could they be warships from some country?
What is the purpose of the warship appearing here?
Without knowing whether the enemy was friendly or not, the fleet also gradually slowed down. Seeing the other party's appearance, Taishi Ci also understood the other party's thoughts in his heart. He cleared his throat and sang loudly: "Tai Yi Kuang, under the heavenly horse~ ~~"
Everyone understood what Taishi Ci meant and started singing in response!
High-pitched singing echoed throughout the surrounding sea.
"It's too much, under the heavenly horse~~"
"Stained with red sweat, foam flowing with ocher~~"
"Zhichu Suan, Jingquanqi~~"
"Floating clouds, galloping up in the dark~~"
When this flickering song reached the other side's fleet, the soldiers on the ship were stunned for a moment, and then they shouted excitedly: "Han people! It's Han people!" They didn't even wait for the leader's order. , and then drove towards Taishi Ci and others at high speed. Taishi Ci and others shed tears and continued singing loudly. When the four ships arrived nearby, several officials took small boats and boarded the ship of Taishi Ci and others.
When they came up and saw the dense crowd of soldiers, they were shocked for a moment. The leader among them looked at them and asked, "Who are you?"
Taishi Ci bowed to them, steadied his body, stared at the leader, and said: "We are soldiers from Qingzhou County. We were sent by the captain Dong Zhuo to go to sea. We encountered a big wave and were trapped in the sea. Between the islands!" The man nodded and was about to speak again. Taishi Ci said first, "Maybe you can give us some food and water. We haven't eaten for several days and many brothers have fainted..."
Hearing Taishi Ci's words, the leading official nodded and waved the big flag behind him, and the fleet began to sail slowly. Taishi Ci looked at the bright flag in his hand with some surprise. There was no Any words, this is a bit strange. Only when these fleets get closer can you see the huge flag on the bow, with "Big Man" written in red letters on a black background.
Taishi Ci looked at these secretly. He only knew that these were Han soldiers, but he didn't know their origins. The official at the head was ugly, and his face seemed to have been severely injured. He looked extremely ferocious. Taishi Ci couldn't stare at him. After looking at it for a moment, he immediately shifted his gaze.
There are seventeen large ships in total, but only eight are decent warships. The rest are civilian river ships. However, it seems that they have been modified, otherwise they would not be able to sail in this sea. One leader, under the influence of many soldiers, Surrounded by people, they came to the big ship where Tai Shici was. As soon as he got on the ship, he yelled at the officials who had boarded the ship earlier: "Why didn't you wait for the order and then approached and boarded the ship without permission?"
"There are Han Chinese on board!"
"Han people? Is this the reason for your unauthorized actions? You have been dismissed from office and will be dealt with later!"
The leader cursed, and the official looked at him with some disdain, turned around and left. The leader frowned and was extremely angry. Taishi Ci said: "It's not his fault, it's us who asked for help... Please forgive me." Forgive me..."
"Who are you waiting for?"
"We are soldiers from Qingzhou County. We were sent to the sea by Captain Dong Jun and were trapped among the islands. Thank you for saving our lives..."
After he finished speaking, the leader nodded without saying anything, waved his hand and said: "Give them some food and let them return with us. In addition, take away their weapons!" Taishi Ci was furious, but, The other party saved them, and he couldn't get angry, so he could only endure it. Just as he was getting angry, the official from earlier jumped on the boat, carrying several water bags, and handed them to the sailors with a smile.
The leader looked at him with disdain and cursed in a low voice: "Despicable mountain people..." After saying that, he returned to the original ship. At this time, the soldiers began to bring water, food, and sailors. They scrambled to grab it first, but Taishi Ci stood behind the crowd and did not grab it. The previous official held a water bag in one hand and a cake in the other, and handed it to Taishi Ci.
Taishi Ci picked it up and ate it. He ate and drank. He was very happy. The big cake was quickly swallowed by Taishi Ci. He exhaled. Taishi Ci looked at the officials, raised his hands and said, "Thank you very much. It's just that we are waiting for you." I'm sorry that something happened that caused you to be dismissed from office!"
"It's okay, he already had a lot of complaints about me... It's just an excuse..."
Taishi Ci nodded and said, "I am Taishi Ci from Donglai, whose courtesy name is Ziyi. Have you not asked me for advice?"
"I, Youtu, have no words..." the man said. Taishi Ci was stunned and looked at him with some surprise. He smiled and said, "I was originally a mountain man, and later returned to the Han Dynasty..." , Taishi Ci did not show any disdain because of his identity, and solemnly said: "Thank you Jun for saving my life!" You Tu shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be like this."
Soon, Taishi Ci became acquainted with Youtu, and the two chatted happily. After chatting for a while, Taishi Ci suddenly woke up and said, "There is another person tied up in the cabin, I almost forgot about it!" After saying this, he hurriedly hurriedly woke up. He hurriedly rushed towards the cabin. When he arrived at the cabin, Zhang Jue had already fainted. Taishi Ci untied him, filled him with water and fed him, and then Zhang Jue slowly regained consciousness.
Taishi Ci did not give Zhang Jiao a chance to ask questions. After seeing that he was awake, he left the food and left the place.
"Who is in the cabin?"
"Damn man!"
Hearing Taishi Ci's answer, You Tu was stunned, thought for a moment, and asked with some confusion: "Dong Jun sent you to sea for what purpose?" Taishi Ci had already received Dong Zhuo's order and could not reveal his purpose.
, thought for a moment, and replied: "I can't tell you about this, and I don't want to deceive you. I hope you will forgive me."
"I have never seen such a sincere gentleman!" Youtu said with emotion.
"What do you want, gentlemen? Where do you come from?"
"Hahaha, like you, I can't tell you about my contacts, but we are subordinates to the governor of Yangzhou. The person before was Lu Yu, the chief governor of Yangzhou. He came from a wealthy family in Jiangdong and was very hostile to the mountain people like us.
