Forty-eight years of Qianlong

Chapter 265 I met an acquaintance

"Bang!" There was a gunshot, and the bullet casings with residual heat fell to the deck.

"Good marksmanship!" Several people around cheered in unison.On the Tong'an ship not far away, the Dingfeng flag on the top of the stern mast was shot down.

The Thunder God was still too big, and it failed to stop the Tongan boat in front of it several times; Zhao Xinxin thought that if there was a patrol boat, everything would have ended long ago.Holding up the binoculars at this time, he suddenly said in surprise: "Hey? Why is there a Dutch flag hanging on the foremast tip?"

Ding Guofeng looked through the scope and saw the red, white and blue flag on the tip of the foremast, so he asked, "Zheng Yi, do you know what that flag is? Fly the Dutch flag?"

Zheng Yi, who stood behind him eagerly watching, quickly explained: "My lord, that is indeed the flag of the red-haired man. I heard from my father that the red-haired ghost's boat was tall and big in the past, and the artillery was also powerful. All merchant ships fly the red-haired man’s flag, which is used to scare others.”

At this time, the sky was already bright, and Zhao Xin observed through a telescope before and saw a familiar face on the Tong'an boat.So he decided to capture the ship, catch that "old acquaintance", and find out why the Qing army attacked him like crazy.

"Bang!" Ding Guofeng fired another shot, but the Dingfeng flag on the mainmast was still fluttering and missed.

On the Tong'an ship, Vice Admiral Shi, Li Dagang, Ma Daochang and others who were hiding under the mat at the stern were startled by the gunshots behind them.Lieutenant General Shi was about to cry, and shouted in despair: "Stop beating! Is it over yet?!"

The sail of the stern mast, the canopy frame on the deck (used to support the fallen sail, like a door; after the sail is lowered, it does not hinder people from walking on the deck), the toilet cabinet outside the side of the ship on the left side, and the worship shed at the stern It had been battered by heavy machine guns, but the Mazu shrine in the worship shed was miraculously undamaged and was moved to the head cabin by the sailors on board.

Li Dagang was so angry that he jumped into a rage, several times he drew his knife and shouted loudly to stop the boat and fight.But they were all persuaded by Ma Daochang.Li Dagang knew that the more than 100 people on his ship were no match for Beihai Town, they could kill all of them with a quick shot.But he couldn't stand being "molested" by the other party, and Li Dagang no longer wanted to be a prisoner.

Under the random urging of Vice Admiral Shi, the sailors on the Tong'an ship leaned on the only front sail and mainsail, put the stern rudder stock into deep water, and fled towards the southeast quickly.

"Ah! They run very fast!" Zhao Xin said in surprise, and then shouted with the walkie-talkie: "Old Liu, follow up and bite them! Over."

Liu Sheng's reply came from the walkie-talkie: "Don't worry!"

After a while, Liu Sheng's loud voice came out again from the tweeter of the Thunder God: "Listen up, Qing soldiers on the wooden boat! You can't run away! Stop the boat and surrender, we won't kill the prisoners!"

Li Dagang said in his heart that you don't kill the prisoners, but you want a ransom!Before asking someone to ask for an official, I only had 500 taels of silver left in all my belongings, and if I paid the ransom, I would have to drink the northwest wind!Besides, he wasn't afraid of being shot, and he would die at worst; but the electric baton in Beihai Town had already cast a heavy shadow on his heart.

Deputy General Shi also knew from Li Dagang that Beihai Town preferred to pay the ransom to release people, and he thought that if he was captured and asked the court to pay the ransom, his own heads would not be enough to cut off; so he didn't want to surrender either.Since the opponent doesn't need to shoot himself with a quick cannon, there is still a chance. What if those people get tired of chasing them?
In this cat-and-mouse chase, the two boats were getting closer and closer to Wailingding Island.

Shen Xuan woke up very early.Ever since she knew that Zhao Xin was not far away, she became more and more anxious and didn't sleep well all night.When she got up, Chen Erya was hugging the quilt and talking in her sleep: "Crabs are so delicious~~"

Seasickness, you get used to it when you vomit, and you get used to seasickness slowly.So after recovering, Chen Erya started to eat extravagantly, wishing to eat back all the food that was wasted these days.When staying on Nan'ao Island, Shen Jingdan bought some fresh seafood, and Chen Erya, who had never eaten crabs, killed five of them by himself.If Chen Jishan hadn't stopped her, this girl could have eaten ten.

There were not many people on the Fuchuan deck at the moment, except for the sailor who climbed up the mainmast to repair the pulley, several other sailors were smoking cigarettes and talking in low voices at the bow.Shen Jingdan spent a lot of money, so the sailors were very polite to Shen Jingdan and his party. When they saw Shen Xuan walking on the deck, they all smiled and nodded in greeting.

A few seagulls looking for food flitted past the bow and croaked.Layers of waves surged on the surface of the sea at dawn, hitting the hull and rocks with loud noises.

Shen Xuan walked to the side of the boat, thinking about what Shen Jingdan told her.

"Ah Quan, after meeting Zhao Xin this time, you must persuade him not to run around anymore. Beihai Town and Beihai Town have a population of tens of thousands, but they are all counted on him to maintain. If something happens to him, don't Talking about the life and death of those refugees, our family is also hanging."

Shen Xuan took these words quite seriously.When she was sent to Shen Jingdan's house by her father at the age of nine, she was already sensible.Although Shen Jingdan and his wife treated her very well, Shen Xuan knew that she was a lonely person without a home.Although she is usually taciturn, she has great ideas in her heart.

For Zhao Xin, in fact, she is more grateful than admiring.But for women in this era, it is difficult to distinguish between these two emotions.Shen Xuan lived in seclusion for many years, read a lot of miscellaneous books, and thought in her heart that a talented man should match a beautiful woman, and her future husband must be a good candidate; but who knows, she met such a strange person as Zhao Xin.

However, Zhao Xin was very kind to her, and he did not dislike Shen Xuan; but the two often did not see each other, and they separated for a few days or even more than ten days.Shen Xuan also knew that men had to make contributions, and Zhao Xin had to run around for the livelihood of tens of thousands of people under him.But the problem is that she needs someone to rely on so that she won't feel alone.

Oginodo once persuaded her: "Zhao Xin is already very good. Look at the girls brought back from Jiangnan, which one is not stunning? Especially that Tang Xiao and Er Tang, if you have nothing to do, go to his side , but I heard that he has always been polite, what is his name, yes, keep a distance. A man, he just has to be busy. Look at your adoptive father. He used to leave for half a year. Didn’t I wait hard? Don’t think too much."

In this inexplicable emotion, coupled with Shen Jingdan's push, she and Zhao Xin got engaged.But what happened to Yupei earlier made Shen Xuan's heart aroused again.In case something happened to Zhao Xin, what would I do in the future?
While thinking wildly, Shen Xuan suddenly heard someone beside her say, "Hey? A boat is coming."

Just after saying this, the sailor on the top of the mast suddenly yelled: "Mother! What is that?!"

Shen Xuan curiously walked to the other side of the ship's side, and looked north as a sailor pointed, and saw a tall wooden boat appearing from the north side of the island, but immediately after, a huge white and blue boat bowed. Then it popped up, and the word "Thor" stood out on the outside of the bow.

"Father! Brother Lu! Come quickly!" Shen Xuan excitedly yelled to the deck below, and the person she had been longing for appeared just like that.At this time, several sailors on the deck heard Shen Xuan suddenly change into a young woman's voice, and said to their mothers!This young man is actually a woman in disguise!
On the Tong'an boat, Vice Admiral Shi and Li Dagang also saw the blessing boat in the distance.Deputy Shi rolled his eyes and asked Li Dagang: "Li Shoubei, from what you've seen before, how do those monsters treat the common people?"

Li Dagang thought for a while, and he already understood what Vice General Shi was going to do, so he said: "Qiu did nothing wrong."

"Brilliant!" Deputy Shi slammed his fist into the palm of his hand, and ordered the sailors on board: "Quick! Come over! Quick, quick!"

Liu Sheng in the cockpit also saw the Fuchuan parked in the distance, and when he saw the Tong'an boat sailing towards the Fuchuan, he thought it was going to be bad, so he shouted through the tweeter: "That boat in the distance! Get out of the way!"

At this time, Fuchuan was in a mess.The sailors were not afraid of the approaching Tong'an boat, but were frightened by the approaching white boat.With the rapid ringing of the bell, the sailors on the deck are raising the anchor and letting go of the driver (the potter's wheel) to lower the sail.

Hu Chuantou shouted eagerly: "Hurry up!"

"Slow!" Shen Jingdan came over, patted Hu Chuantou on the shoulder and said, "Old Hu, trust me again, we won't move!"

"What?" Hu Chuan froze, pointed at the white boat that was getting closer and said to Shen Jingdan: "Master Shen, the monster is here! Why don't we run and wait?!"

Shen Jingdan said with color on his face: "That's not a monster, it's our people!"

"The boat in front! Don't raise the sails! We are from the Xiangshan Xie Navy Battalion, we need to board the boat for inspection!" A Qing soldier shouted loudly.On the deck, Vice Admiral Shi ordered more than 100 people under his command: "Get on that lucky boat in a while, and take everyone down for me! Don't kill them!"

The Zan Huashu office from the Governor's Mansion of Guangdong and Guangxi said, "Master Shi, who is this?"

Vice Admiral Shi said with a smirk: "I want the rebels to fight against the rats, and let the people on the Fuchuan block the guns for us! With these hostages, we will give some money in exchange for freedom. After returning to the camp, everyone will wait for you." 30 taels of silver!" After explaining, he said to his subordinates, "Do you understand?!"

On the [-]th, the Qing army hurriedly said: "Please follow the order of the army!"

The secretary's face was pale and said: "This, can this be done?"

Deputy General Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Sun, this is the only way to go. Let's give it a go!"

When the Tong'an boat approached the Fuchuan, the Qing army Shui Yong on the boat immediately lowered the sails, and threw a few flying hooks, hooked on the side of the Fuchuan.But who knew that Fu Chuan on the opposite side would also throw a few ropes, which surprised Shui Yong of the Qing army, but they didn't care about thinking about it, and hurriedly tied the ropes firmly.

On the Tong'an ship, several sailors turned the crew, and the heavy mulberry wood anchor slipped from the bow and fell into the water.Two Qing soldiers came to the Narcissus Gate and removed the closed wooden boards piece by piece. (Narcissus Gate, an exit on the deck of an ancient sailing ship for transporting goods and disembarking people.)
The narcissus gate on the lucky boat has already been opened, and a thick fir board stretched out from the lucky boat.The Qing army seemed extremely satisfied with Fuchuan's cooperation.When they pulled out the last piece of wood, the gangway jumped forward and was firmly placed between the two boats.

Several Qing soldiers with knives were about to step onto the diving board, when suddenly several figures appeared behind the opposite side of the ship's side, holding a "short gun" in each hand.Faced with the sudden change, the Qing troops on the Tong'an ship were stunned.Thoughts turned quickly and I thought it was a pirate who robbed his house.Vice Admiral Shi was one of them. He pointed at the opposite side and cursed: "Do you want to die?!"

In the blink of an eye, Li Dagang saw a very familiar face among the people standing up opposite him.At the beginning, he tried to escape from the labor camp in Beihai Town several times, and every time he was caught and returned, it was this person who was in charge of interrogation and torture.

"Lu, Lu"

Before Li Dagang could say anything, he heard a person on the opposite boat yell, "Fire!"

"Boom! Boom!." More than a dozen .36-caliber conical lead bullets were shot at the Qing army on the opposite deck. The smoke filled the air, and the Qing army on the Tong'an ship was caught off guard. Seven or eight people were shot and killed. They were still full of hope. The Qing army suddenly fell into hell!

The 84-type revolver needs to manually toggle the hammer every time it shoots, and several well-trained Beihai Town intelligence team members are like the western rangers of later generations. Stop pulling the trigger, and the six bullets in the magazine were like splashing water, and they were all gone in a blink of an eye.

The Qing soldiers on the Tong'an boat were about to untie the ropes when they heard a shout from the opposite side: "Kill them! Don't let them escape!"

More than a dozen men with short knives and wooden sticks shouted and stood up. They quickly rushed up the gangplank, and within a few steps they got on the deck of the Tong'an ship. .

On the Thunder God, Zhao Xin and others stared dumbfounded at the scene not far away. When he heard the gunshot of the Type 84 revolver, he hurriedly raised his binoculars to check.Finally, he saw Lu Shoushan who was directing the charge on the blessing boat.

Zhao Xin didn't care to use the walkie-talkie to notify Liu Sheng, put his hands around his mouth and shouted at Fu Chuan: "Lu Shoushan, catch the alive!"

Li Dagang's heart was so cold right now!In order not to be a prisoner, he raised his knife and joined the melee.

It is said that Master Li was born as a martial arts detective after all, and his martial arts were also trained hard since childhood.As soon as they fought, the two masters under Lu Shoushan were stabbed immediately.Li Dagang said in his heart that if he died today, he would drag the guy surnamed Lu to his back!
At this moment, a figure holding a long stick leaped up from the diving board. The man was on the side of the body in the air, and the stick as tall as a person stabbed at Li Dagang's shoulder.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Dagang got short, rolled forward, and hid behind the ship's gunwale.As soon as the feet of the person on the opposite side hit the ground, the shadow of the stick swirled and slammed towards the neck of a boss Qian.

The person who came was Chen Jishan. He practiced martial arts since he was a child, and learned from "Shenquan" Guo Yongfu.Some people in later generations verified that Guo Yongfu, the "Shenquan" of the Qianlong period, was Chen Youfu, the successor of Chen-style Tai Chi.This person changed his mother's surname and fled to Shanxi because he accidentally beat someone to death when he was young; and the "Taiji Changquan" once lost in Chenjiagou was "Hongdongtongbeiquan".

It is estimated that Guo Yongfu would never have imagined that he was given the title of "Shenquan" by Qianlong, but his disciples went under the command of "rebels".

On the opposite side, Mr. Qian saw the shadow of the stick approaching, and shouted: "Good job!" Then he raised his knife to block, but the stick looked slow, but in fact it was extremely fast, and it wiped Mr. Qian's blade with a "slap" With a bang, Mr. Qian's neck was broken in an instant!

When Li Dagang saw it, his heart broke!I met a master.He just wanted to get up when a short knife stabbed at his head.Li Dagang swung his knife to block it, and kicked the opponent's ankle hard with his right foot. With a "click", the man holding the knife fell to the ground with a muffled groan.

After Chen Jishan cleaned up Mr. Qian, he kept stabbing out the cedar stick in his hand, and three or five Qing soldiers were hit in the abdomen.While no one was paying attention, Li Dagang had already arrived at the diving board. He strode onto the diving board, and when he was about to rush to the opposite side, Chen Jishan's shadowy stick came after him again. This time, Li Dagang had no time to turn around, and was stabbed in With a muffled grunt, he fell forward.He tried his best to get up again, but suddenly his body sank, and several people jumped on him one after another, making him unable to move.

Vice Admiral Shi, who was standing under the mat tent at the stern with a knife, was in a state of mind at this moment, while Zan Huashu Office, who was hiding behind him, was scared out of his wits.

A few Qing soldiers on the Tong'an boat stood behind the crowd. They raised their three-eyed blunderbusses and were about to put some light on the medicine with the matchlock. The Qing army shoots.But those Qing soldiers hid in the crowd, squatted down quickly when they heard the gunshots, but they were not hit.But the dozen or so Qing soldiers on the outside of them were miserable. They shot indiscriminately and howled.And those few lucky Qing soldiers were so frightened that they quickly dropped the three-eyed guns in their hands, knelt on the deck and did not dare to move.

Suddenly, "bang bang bang" gunshots sounded like popping beans, and the sawdust of the fir tree on the mainmast flew around.
Holding guns in both hands, Lu Shoushan and the others yelled at the Qing army on the Tong'an boat: "Surrender! Disarm and don't kill!"

At this time, I only heard the tweeter on the ship shout: "Put down your weapons, if you don't surrender, we can fire!"

Zhao Xin stood on the bow of the Thunder God, laughed condescendingly and said, "Master Li, we meet again!"
