Chapter 499 A pot is served

"Damn it, I'm scared to death..." On the boat of the tilted head Jiao, he touched his left ear with lingering fear.When he was escaping, a bullet flew by his ear, if he hadn't been born with a crooked neck, his head would have exploded at this time.

He asked his little boss again: "How many people came back alive?"

"Just, just eighteen people fled back to the ship, even the second head of the family..."

"This surname is Qi!" Tilted Jiao gritted his teeth, "I won't avenge this, I swear I won't be a human being!"

A pirate leader at the side said with a sad face: "Boss, now that we have lost [-]% of our horses, how can we recover this debt..."

"Hmph! No matter how much they can fight, they still have to gain a foothold in Zhoushan." Tilted Jiao stomped on the boat under his feet, "I have warships. I still rule the world at sea!"

Since all the warships near Zhejiang were transferred to Qiantang and the Yangtze River to deal with the Qing army, there were no tigers or monkeys in the mountains to claim the king. rely on."

"Isn't his surname Qi going to build some 'official head factory'? I will attack his ships at sea to see what he can do!"

When it came to warships, Crooked Jiao seemed to have regained his confidence, and immediately waved his hand and said: "Here's an order, go to Putuo Mountain to repair it first, and then set sail to the south in the future!"

……

"Second miss, today we made a total of [-] bottles of canned food, which is more than yesterday." Qi Li'an was more respectful to Mu Zhiqing than he was a few days ago—he is a small official in the Ministry of Industry, and he can make military achievements. This is all a gift from Miss Mu's family.

At first, he was a little bit guilty about the superior who asked him to listen to a woman, but after the series of events in Zhoushan, he now admires Miss Mu Er so much.

Mu Zhiqing nodded with a smile, "There are already over ten thousand cans in the warehouse, even if the navy comes to pick them up now, it should be enough to deal with it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Yale came quickly and said, "Second Miss, General Ruan and his navy are approaching the shore."

"Look, Cao Cao will be here soon." She told Qi Li'an, "Master Qi will go and arrange for the naval supplies."

"Yes, I'm going right now, sir."

Before he could step out of the gate, another guard came to report, "Second Miss, a person who called himself Ruan Jin came to see him."

"General Ruan? Please!"

Although this Ruan Jin is from Zhejiang, he has a childhood friend who works in Kunming. He wrote a letter a few days ago, mentioning that the assistant king proposed marriage to the Mu family in Lijiang, and said that there were rumors that this princess-to-be ran away without authorization. Went to Jiangnan.

This time, he went to the Ministry of Industry to hand over the new warships, and he heard from a small official of the Ministry of Industry that the assistant king personally ordered [-] craftsmen to build a "cannery" in Zhoushan, but asked these people to be dispatched by a woman surnamed Mu.

Ruan Jin is also a quick-witted person, and immediately thought that the princess-to-be might be in Zhoushan, so he rushed to see her as soon as he landed—this is a rare opportunity for political investment!
When he met Mu Zhiqing, he found that her appearance was very similar to what was mentioned in the friend's letter, so he immediately bowed respectfully, "The last general, Ruan Jin, has met Miss Mu!"

Mu Zhiqing naturally thought of the reason why he came, so she returned the salute neither humble nor overbearing, exchanged a few friendly greetings, and finally said: "The woman of the people wishes General Ruan a victory!"

"Miss Xie Mu! At the end of the day, when these nine warships of all sizes join the main force of the admiral, we will be able to defeat the bandits Zheng and live up to the court..."

Before he could finish his sentence, a soldier of the Dragon Guards dressed as a craftsman came forward and said: "Second Miss, those pirates have been interrogated, and they all said that they came to kill Lord Qi and you. The bandit leader tilted his head Jiao was escaped."

"Escape?" Mu Zhiqing frowned slightly, "This is a trouble, if it harasses around Zhoushan..."

Ruan Jin almost burst out laughing when he heard the words, there are some unscrupulous pirates who dare to attack the Queen Concubine? !Isn't this a chance for himself to show his face in front of the princess?
He immediately asked the soldier, "Do you know where these bandits are now?"

The soldier knew from his clothes that he was a navy general, and hurriedly said: "Return to the general, the pirates confessed that their lair is on the south side of Mount Putuo."

"Putuo Mountain? That's close at hand!" Ruan Jin waved his big hand, "Give me a few thieves as guides." Then he bowed to Mu Zhiqing and said, "The general has nothing to do with him, so he will remove it for the people. Harmful."

Mu Zhiqing hurriedly said: "Don't miss the army going north!"

"No." Ruan Jin said with a smile, "It will take three or four hours for the brigade to replenish the water, food and canned food. Mount Putuo is nearby, enough for the general to deal with the pirates before returning."

"Then there is General Lau."

……

Crooked-headed Jiao stared at a pair of terrified eyes, looking at the warship as huge as a hill in front of him, his calf was twisting——Which god is this?Why do you want to have trouble with this little shrimp like yourself? !

When the huge sails hung on the mast of the huge ship more than ten feet high completely covered the sunlight in front of his eyes, he suddenly reacted, and hurriedly shouted: "Turn around! Run!"

But how could these broken ships of his outrun the navy's latest [-]-ton Galen warship?
Standing on the bow of the Jianning, Ruan Jin casually turned to the adjutant and said, "Send the order, fire the cannon, and defeat the bandits as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

Tilting Jiao kept looking back in horror, but saw that the giant ship was getting closer and closer to him, and he had caught up to his side in a short while.

The next moment, a row of neat "windows" suddenly opened on the side of the big ship, and eleven dark gun muzzles protruded from it...

The soldiers of Chang Guowei were held up by the firecrackers, and they all shrank into a ball in fright.

"My surname is Qi, how dare a mere secretary of yours rape me?!" Ji Kang was grabbed by several Dragon Guard soldiers, but he still struggled, "Are you going to rebel?!"

Qi Li'an ordered someone to bring a stretcher, on which lay the seriously injured Crooked Jiao Jiao.

"Ji Qianhu, this is the leader of the pirates. He just woke up this morning. You colluded with the pirates and murdered my official Hemu... He has recruited all the members of the Hegong Department. What else do you have to say?"

"He's making a false accusation!" Ji Kang made a sudden move, raised his foot and kicked the stretcher, and fell with his head tilted.

Yale hurriedly went to help the pirate, but felt something was wrong, stretched out his hand to check his breath, and immediately turned his head and said: "Second Miss, this guy is dead!"

"Haha! There is no proof!" Ji Kang immediately laughed wildly, "I am not afraid to tell you that Mr. Li, the prefect of Ningbo, has already gone to the court to report that you have embezzled Mo Gongyin and oppressed the people in Zhoushan! The court will send people to investigate soon. You think they are Believe in the words of a fourth-rank official, or believe in you, a small secretary? Let's see who dies then?!"

Mu Zhiqing shook her head slightly when she heard the words, "His Royal Highness is busy with military affairs, and I didn't want to disturb him with such a trivial matter. I didn't expect you to rush to the table... Isn't this courting death?"

She ignored Ji Kang, turned to Qi Li'an and said, "Lord Qi, there are many pirates around here, and the materials in Ji Kang's courtyard can be used to build several forts on the island."

……

Zhu Linming took out the memorials just sent by Tianxing Mansion, flipped through them one by one, and was suddenly taken aback—the prefect of Ningbo reported Qi Li'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, for colluding with a woman surnamed Mu, committing crimes in Zhoushan, embezzling Mo Gongyin...
