The county magistrate changed his career to selling private vegetables and sold them out

Chapter 137 Against the Enemy
Li Minghe has meritorious service in supervising the construction of the seaport and wharf, but if he is stabbed in the back by pirates, not only will he not be successful, but he will have done it. Whether he can return to Shangjing with all his tail depends on the success or failure of this bandit suppression!
Shangjing is too far away from Zongyang County. It is impossible for the imperial court to send naval forces to station in such a small place, and it is also impossible to search for traces of pirates on a large scale at sea, and it is even more impossible to wait for them to throw themselves into the trap. This battle is not easy to fight.

Fu Qiyuan's letter was sent to Li Minghe like an antidote.

After reading the letter, he laughed angrily.

Brother, I am here to fight pirates to the death, but you are thinking about the mountains and rivers, and you have the nerve to mention this and that to me in the official letter, so don't be ashamed!
I don't want to talk to him!

But ignore it, this guy is too slippery, his mind is full of twists and turns, those pirates probably really can't play with him.

"Come here, send a letter to the Qingyang Hou Mansion, and quickly dispatch the soldiers to support Zongyang County!"

It was night, and Li Minghe led his staff to study the map of the sea.

"The three waters of Guanhai, Qing'an, and Hexian are the places where pirates must pass through. Send people to guard the entrance, and they can only enter and not exit!"

"Zongyang County is the final battlefield. Send a team to Meishan to block their retreat. As long as they enter Meishan, the storm there will swallow them up!"

"In this way, we only need to guard every entrance in Zongyang County, and we can't let them escape!"

"But, my son, although Meishan has a special climate, how can we guarantee that the storm will appear at that time?" A staff member asked a professional question.

Li Minghe was silent for a moment, thinking to himself, I am not familiar with the area of ​​Meishan, so who do I ask if you ask me?
But these are Fu Qiyuan's original words, they just need to follow suit.

Meishan is also called Guimen Pass. At the intersection of Zongyang County and Guyang County, fishermen can often see big storms and whirlpools rising from the sea as the temperature changes throughout the year.

Although the locals know that Meishan is a special place, they don’t know the reason. The pirates don’t know the situation of Meishan. Even if they do know, they probably don’t care too much. ,frequently.

The Haisha Gang unscrupulously searched for valuable cargo on board the ship, causing panic among the people, and many merchant ships were forced to stop shipping.

Qingxia's brothers are also persuading him.

"Brother, as long as we tell shopkeeper Jiang, she won't blame us! Many ships outside are out of service now, it's too dangerous!"

"That's right, big brother, shopkeeper Jiang is a sensible person, and she certainly doesn't want us brothers to risk their lives to go to sea!"

Xia Qing stretched out his hand to stop the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "Because there are too few ships going out to sea now, the seafood at Shopkeeper Jiang's place must not be able to supply, if we don't take this shipment, the business in the shop will definitely be affected! "

After finishing the words, he turned and looked at the crowd, "Brothers, shopkeeper Jiang is our benefactor. I will leave my words here today, and those who are willing to go to sea will follow me. If something happens unfortunately, your family, I will help you with Xia Qing for the rest of your life." Take care of them and ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing!"

Jiang Yong looked at Xia Qing with burning eyes, raised his hand and said, "Uncle Xia, I'll be with you!"

Another young man raised his hand and said, "Brother, I'll go!"

Afterwards, some people in twos and threes raised their hands and stood up.

In the end, only two middle-aged men hesitated to stand up.

Xia Qing stepped forward and patted one person on the shoulder, saying: "Your family has a large population, and everyone counts on you. Your mother is old, and if something happens to you, she will not survive. The two of you will be in the town for a few days. Go to Jiang's private vegetable shop to help, and bring your brothers there too, do more work, and earn some food."

"Hey, thank you, brother!" the man scratched his head and smiled innocently.

Taking advantage of the darkness, Xia Qing and his party boarded the boat and sailed into the vast sea at the risk of losing their heads.

He is not a reckless man, he has a knife hidden on his body, valuable seafood is hidden under the cabin, ordinary fish and shrimp are placed on the upper layer, and some rotten and smelly fish and shrimp are also brought as a cover.

The people on the boat all put on tattered clothes, and they looked like a group of poor fishermen who relied on fishing, selling fish and buying rice for cooking.

When pirates encountered such fishermen, they either killed them all when they were in a bad mood, or let them go if they were in a good mood. It was all luck.

Obviously, Xia Qing and the others were not very lucky.

In the middle of the night, when the boat arrived in Qing'an, the Haisha gang's boat appeared on the sea like a ghost, and surrounded Xia Qing's three boats.

When the torches illuminated the faces of Xia Qing and the others, what the pirates of the Haisha Gang saw was a group of dull, frightened and poor fishermen.

"Boss, we found three more ships!"

A pirate held a knife in his hand and stood bent over at the bow of the ship, as if he was looking at what Xia Qing's ship was carrying.

Boss Sha, the leader of the Haisha Gang, walked over from the crowd. He couldn't see the expression on his face clearly, but he could see a striking scar on his neck, which was hideous and ugly.

"Where did you come from? Report your name." Boss Sha's voice could not detect any emotion.

Xia Qing swallowed her saliva, and murmured, "Gu-Gu Xian Town, people who fight, fight, fish."

"A group of stinky fishers are quite courageous. If you have any good things, hurry up and send them to the master!" The pirate A next to Boss Sha grinned.

With a bitter face, Xia Qing clasped his fists to Boss Sha with difficulty and said, "Masters, we really..."

Jiang Yong suddenly rushed over from behind, glaring at Boss Sha, "No! I finally caught a few big fish, and I won't give it to anyone!"

"Xiaoyong...!" Xia Qing anxiously grabbed Jiang Yong and pushed him back desperately, his back molars almost gnawed.

"Uncle! If we can't deliver the goods, our trip will be in vain. I won't give it, and no one will give it!"

Jiang Yong roared in a rough voice, with tears streaming down his eyes.

"Stinky boy, how dare you argue with grandpa!" Pirate A jumped onto Xia Qing's boat, stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Yong by the collar and pinned him to the deck.

Immediately after Pirate B and Pirate C jumped down, Pirate B pushed Xia Qing away, walked to a few wooden boxes next to him, and opened them with a knife.

Large and small fish and shrimp rolled all over the ground, and the stench was incomparable.

After splitting open the wooden box for cover, Pirate B was going to go to the cabin to find out.

With a groan, Jiang Yong pushed away Pirate A who was holding him down, knocked down Pirate B, and rushed over to fish the fish and shrimp on the deck into his arms.

In a fit of rage, Pirate B drew out his sword and slashed at Jiang Yong.

With a flash of Jiang Yong's figure, he pulled him gently with four or two jins, stepped on the rotten fish and shrimp, slipped to the ground, and the two rolled into a ball.

Pirate A and Pirate C stood by and watched the joke, Xia Qing tensed up, and slowly moved his hand to the protrusion on his waist.

The sea breeze blew the smell of fish and shrimp on the boat to Boss Sha's big boat. He covered his nose and said impatiently: "Okay, don't waste time, come back!"

The last three words add emphasis.

　Stretch out your little hands to make a fortune~ Let’s give a reward
