Chapter 101
Because the Toyoshima East Army affiliated with the Murakami pirates was too high-profile, they chose to attack the tribute ships on the busy shipping route.As a result, when the 7 burning ships were dispatched by passing ships, the news about "I don't know who killed the Toshima Eastern Army" in the early morning of the second day when the naval battle broke out was spread in various places around the sea area where the battle broke out. Word spread about the port.

However, these ships saw the burning pirate ship, but they were not lucky enough to see the tribute ship like a hedgehog.Until a passing merchant ship accidentally saw the tribute boat chasing Guan at full speed. Almost everyone on board saw and heard it. Amidst the roaring thunder, the tribute boat killed Guan in just a moment. All the pirates on board.When they brought this explosive news back to Sakai Port, the two news naturally merged together, and then...

"The tribute ship of the general's family was blessed by the god of thunder, who personally sent down thunder to punish the pirates of the Toshima Eastern Army!"

"It's not just punishment, I also heard that Lord Thunder God personally killed Uraman Toyoshima!"

"I heard that before the Teshima pirates encountered the tribute ship, the merchants on several sea ships were slaughtered."

"The pirates in the Murakami family are counted as one, and they are all damned!"

However, when the news was learned by the samurai of the Shimadzu family who went out to work in Sakai Port, they had completely different opinions.

Shimadzu Yoshihisa thought: "Thunder God? Thunder?"

"It is said that General Ashikaga hired the big ship of Toho Marine Merchant." A samurai from the Shimadzu family speculated, "From my point of view, the sailors on the ship may have used iron cannons."

Shimadzu Yoshihisa shook his head and denied: "But the sound made by the iron cannon will not be regarded as thunder in any case."

"Maybe the businessman deliberately exaggerated it in order to increase the conversation?"

"It's also possible, but..." Shimadzu Yoshihisa said: "I'm more concerned about the ship that was blown to pieces as they mentioned, but how could the iron cannon break the sea ship into pieces?"

"Maybe it's because the iron cannon is big enough!" A samurai joked, "An iron cannon as thick as a battering ram!"

When Shimadzu heard the samurai's joke, his eyes lit up!
"What if Dongbao Marine Merchant really possesses iron cannons that are 10 or 20 times larger than the iron cannons in our hands?"

When the samurai of the Shimadzu family heard this, they suddenly came to their senses!

"Then Dongbao's fleet is invincible in the sea?"

Also in Sakai Port, compared with the excited and curious Shimadzu samurai, Hideo Matsunaga's face was already full of shock, anger, doubt and fear!

He was shocked that the dozens of people on the tribute boat could wipe out at least 500 sailors in Toshima; he was angry at the behavior of the Teshima navy, which made all his previous arrangements go to waste; he wondered why Ashikaga Yoshiki The fighting power of the tribute ship can be so powerful, is there any other conspiracy of Ashikaga Yoshiki hidden behind its surface.

However, what Song Yongxiu is most afraid of at this time is whether he planned the attack on the general's tribute ship by the Teshima navy. Will his brother-in-law (brother-in-law) who is very deep in the city, the chief manager of the general's mansion lead ——What Miyoshi Changqing learned.After all, his brother-in-law had other plans for the tribute ship mission. Now that the conspiracy to rob the tribute ship failed, he as the behind-the-scenes planner may have revealed his whereabouts. How would you feel when you framed him?
"Do you need to run away?" Song Yongxiu shook his head, throwing this stupid idea out of his mind. He didn't want to give up the power that he had worked hard for more than ten years, so he could only choose to act first!
"I'm sorry, Master Changqing, for the sake of the future of Miyoshi's family..."

Song Yongxiu only spoke halfway, and he didn't continue, then he called his subordinates and ordered: "Return to Xingui City immediately!"

Let's turn our attention back to Gong Chuan and Bao'er.

It is said that the battle between the tribute boats and the Toyoshima pirates was earlier than Baoer's tribute boats, so when the tribute boats slowly entered this small port, the whole port was shocked!Because what people see is a tribute boat full of arrows, like a big hedgehog!

"Look!" A fisherman watching the excitement on the pier pointed to the hull of the tribute boat, and said to others: "This boat is blackened by the fire left!"

But what was it that had been burned by fire? It was clearly that the gunpowder was not fully burned due to moisture, and was blackened by the black smoke of gunpowder!However, ordinary people in Dongying don't know what gunpowder is, they all think that this is the "merit" left by the tribute boat when they fought against the pirates of Toshima!
After docking, the sailors did not disembark, but put on cables and hung down from the side of the ship. While pulling out the arrows inserted in the wooden boards, they checked the damage of the hull and used some kind of waterproof paint glue Fill the hole pierced by the arrow.Fortunately, Guan Ship did not suffer any fatal injuries, but the sailors smeared the hull in a mess.

At the same time, these sailors also remembered what the warriors said, and tried their best to recycle some intact arrows and fill them into the tribute.The sailors pulled more than 400 arrows from the ship in total, but only a small number of arrows were in decent condition. Others were either missing feathers, or the arrows were rusted, or simply broken.

"What should we do? The number of tributes doesn't match the number in the survey booklet!" said the warrior in charge of the tributes with a sad face.

"Otherwise, let's buy some from the lord of this port. We got so much money for nothing yesterday, and everyone's contribution is enough to make up for the amount on the roster."

"Sigh... If I knew yesterday, it wouldn't be such a waste."

"Waste it, just waste it!" Longma heard the conversation of several warriors, and came over to enlighten them, saying: "Except for those few injured bad luck, at least our lives have been saved. Let's pool together to buy it." Arrow, the right is to save money and avoid disaster!"

A group of warriors reached an agreement, and everyone contributed 30 silver dollars, which was less than 800 yuan.After Ryoma was ready, he took a few warriors off the ship, and after he found out where the lord lived, he set off to visit the lord in the harbor.

But before Longma and the others walked out of the town, they saw a group of warriors rushing towards them.Ryoma and the others didn't know whether the opponent was an enemy or a friend, so they had to stop and put on a posture ready to fight.Fortunately, when the other party saw Ryoma and the others, they took the initiative to put on a low profile, and kept smiling and waving at Ryoma and the others.Then he slowly walked to Ryoma's side unprepared.

This group of samurai is the local small wealthy family that dominates the port. The total force of the family is less than 50 people. They have neither ambitions to expand nor other forces to attack their territory. It can be regarded as enjoying oneself and being at ease.

However, since the rise of the Teshima pirates nearby, this small wealthy family has been brought into their sphere of influence by the Teshima group, and they have to pay tribute to Teshima every quarter in exchange for Teshima's protection of the port.But it is not so much protection as it is spending money to buy peace.But even if they paid the tribute on time every quarter, the pirates would still come to the port to make trouble, and they called it "checking the territory".

But early this morning, with the news of the destruction of the entire Teshima pirate army, all the past misfortunes of this family disappeared with the burning pirate ship last night.

"We, the country warriors, have nothing to repay for your kindness!" The patriarch of this clan actually knelt down to thank Ryoma and the others in person.And they didn't just come to thank them, they even brought a quarter's tribute that should have been handed over to the pirates, and prepared to dedicate it to the general.But these gifts were all rejected by Ryoma.

"If you really want to thank us..." Ryoma showed his friendly smile again, and said to the patriarch with a handsome face like Masaharu Fukuyama: "Can you sell some arrows, preferably brand new ones? Yes. Of course, we will not take your stuff for nothing, we will definitely pay for it!"

But the polite words from both parties are up to now, how can the patriarch of this small wealthy family dare to ask for money from Longma and the others, and it is too late to rush to offer it with both hands.So the patriarch moved all the arrows in the family's arsenal to the port with a wave of his hand, and let Longma and the others pick and choose.

Finally, the members of the mission gathered enough arrows on the tribute list.Of course, Ryoma still expressed sincerely that he must pay. The two sides pushed back and forth until finally, the money that the samurai collected was not spent.

At the same time, the patriarch also asked Ryoma what they could do to help them.

"Don't tell me, there really are!" Long Ma smiled and whispered in the patriarch's ear, "Help me spread the news, saying that Mr. Kong Tiao of the General's family defeated one hundred last night, not only killing indiscriminately The innocent Toyoshima Uramina also killed everyone on the Toyoshima flagship. Moreover, this new great swordsman not only killed a hundred people in one battle, but also achieved it without injury! "

"This..." The patriarch said subconsciously: "How is this possible!"

"But what I said is indeed the truth!" After speaking, Ryoma pointed to Bao'er who was standing on the boat and yawning, and said, "That's him, a great swordsman who is not yet 20 years old, and the last disciple of Shangquan Sword Master!"

However, Ryoma seemed to have forgotten what to emphasize, so that the news that "General Ashikaga's family has a female swordsman who killed hundreds of people" spread like wildfire, and finally became known all over the world.

Of course, these are all for later.

Bao'er: What the hell am I...
