Chapter 45: Enemy or Friend

It was the first time in Gu Huaiqing's life that he went out to sea by boat. At the beginning, he was still running around on the deck. It felt quite fresh, but he soon tasted the bitterness.

The wind and waves in the sea and rivers are not the same. Although they are on a luxury-class large warship, it is still very bumpy. People who have never been on a sea boat cannot adapt to it all at once.

Gu Huaiqing only felt dizzy, his stomach was churning and nauseated, and his face turned green from vomiting.Luo Qin and the other Jin Yiwei did not get any better. They vomited many times and their legs became weak.Duan Mingchen was a little bit better, because he had participated in the naval battle on the Koryo battlefield, so he got used to it a little bit. Although his face was a bit ugly, he could hold back.

Duan Mingchen saw that they were vomiting pitifully, especially Gu Huaiqing, whose face was as pale as paper, and the blue blood vessels under the skin were clearly visible, so he asked Huo Weidong for some seasickness medicine.

Gu Huaiqing looked at the bowl of black concoction with a strange smell, and really wanted to refuse, but he couldn't help vomiting, so he pinched his nose and gulped it down.Not to mention, even though the medicine was terribly bitter, it was really effective. After a while, the feeling of seasickness improved a lot, at least no more nausea and vomiting.

The big ship looks bulky, but it moves very fast in the sea. Dozens of strong sailors paddle at the same time and take turns to change shifts.The helmsman has rich sailing experience, holds the compass, skillfully avoids various hidden reefs, and sails along the route to Dongpu.

The sun set and rose again, and after a day and a night, the big ship entered the deep sea, surrounded by boundless blue water, with no end in sight.

There was still no trace of the enemy ship, Duan Mingchen, Gu Huaiqing and the others couldn't help but feel anxious. In this vast sea, can they really find that enemy ship?

However, Huo Weidong is confident, with a posture of winning. Although he does not have an amazing appearance, he gives people a feeling of trustworthiness. This may be the so-called charisma of a leader.

After more than ten hours of sailing, everyone was a little tired. At this moment, they suddenly heard excited shouts from the high observation deck: "Attention! Ships are spotted ahead!"

Everyone's spirits were lifted. Huo Weidong picked up the binoculars to look out, his eyes lit up, and he ordered to the helmsman and sailors: "Full speed ahead, catch up!"

Gu Huaiqing asked Huo Weidong to take the binoculars, and sure enough, he saw a boat with white sails ahead, but there was no sign on the boat.

Gu Huaiqing asked suspiciously: "Why did the general conclude that this is the Japanese pirate's boat? Maybe it's just an ordinary fishing boat?"

"No, it must be Japanese pirates!" Huo Weidong shook his head and said, "Japanese pirates have repeatedly invaded recently, so most fishing boats only fish in the coastal waters, and for safety reasons, they often form a fleet. This boat is alone, and there is no Hanging any sign is obviously an intentional concealment of whereabouts."

"That's not necessarily Aino Yufei, maybe it's the ship of other Japanese pirates?" Gu Huaiqing argued.

"The Japanese pirates come out to rob, and they are also in groups, ranging from a few ships to dozens of ships. It is impossible for a single ship to come to die."

After Huo Weidong's explanation, there is a high probability that it is Aino Yufei's boat. Everyone was very excited and wanted to catch up with him immediately and kill him.

However, the so-called haste makes waste.Aino Yuuhi's boat obviously found a big ship chasing after them, and they probably knew that being overtaken would be a dead end, so they threw the heavy objects on the boat into the sea, hoisted two sails, and sailed at full speed.

The Japanese pirates' boats were small, and the wind was right at this time, with bulging sails, and they were moving very fast. Although the sailors on the big boat of Qi's army rowed with all their strength, the big boat was huge and carried heavy artillery. They had to catch up with them. Small boats are not easy.

Two ships, one large and one small, launched a life-and-death chase on the sea. After a quarter of an hour, the distance between the two sides still did not close, but showed signs of being pulled apart.

Huo Weidong was also anxious, he boarded the bridge himself, drew his sword in hand, and loudly encouraged the sailors.Duan Mingchen, Gu Huaiqing and others watched nervously, feeling extremely anxious, but they couldn't help.

Suddenly, Lieutenant General You, who was silent but sharp-eyed, said, "Look, General, there is a large ship on the horizon on the left."

Huo Weidong picked up the binoculars and saw the boat clearly, his eyes flickered and his expression was unpredictable.

Duan Mingchen had far-sighted eyes, and he also saw the big black boat. The boat appeared abruptly. There was no sign hanging on the boat, and it was floating naked on the sea level, which looked very weird.

Duan Mingchen asked: "Brother Huo, do you know whether that boat is an enemy or a friend?"

Huo Weidong had a strange expression, his brows were slightly frowned, but he didn't answer.

The Japanese ship also saw the big ship that suddenly appeared, and was also puzzled, but if it was a warship of Daqi, it must not have no signs, so the Japanese guessed that it was probably a passing merchant ship. According to maritime customs, the Japanese waved Holding a red flag means a friendly greeting, but it also means a test.

The big ship sailed slowly without making a sound, neither responding nor approaching, it seemed to be no threat, because the big ship was a hundred feet away from the Japanese ship, and the Japanese didn't realize that there was any danger. .

Unexpectedly, when something happened suddenly, more than a dozen large-caliber pitch-black gun barrels protruded from the side of the black ship, and then the artillery fired together, sending out bursts of earth-shattering roars, and more than a dozen fire dragons roared and rushed towards the Japanese ship.

The poor Japanese people never dreamed that the seemingly ordinary ship was equipped with the most advanced Frankie cannon, and it fired directly without saying hello!Their boat was originally a small boat stolen from fishermen. How could it withstand such a blow? Half of it collapsed immediately, and the rest of the board also caught fire. The hull slowly tilted and sank into the sea. The Japanese pirates who survived by luck jumped into the sea one after another to survive.

This accident happened so suddenly, Duan Mingchen and Gu Huaiqing were also unprepared, the loud noise of the artillery made people's eardrums buzzing and caused waves on the sea level.

After the big black ship bombarded the Japanese pirates, it raised a flag with a black background embroidered with a white skull, flaunting its might in the wind, looking closely at the patterns on the flag, the skull actually had a red rose in its mouth.

Duan Mingchen gasped: "It's... a pirate!"

Compared to Duan Mingchen and the others' astonishment, the faces of the soldiers of the Qi family's army were even darker. Someone whispered: "God, it's Widow Miao's boat!"

Only Huo Weidong's expression remained unchanged. It seemed that he had known the origin of the big ship for a long time. Although his face was calm, his furrowed eyebrows revealed that he was not at ease.

Although Qi's army's warships are equipped with advanced equipment and cannons that are not inferior to the pirate ships, but if there is a real fight, the outcome is hard to say.The purpose of their trip was not to suppress the bandits, but to capture Yufei Aino, so there was no need to fight the pirates here.

Huo Weidong immediately made a decision and ordered: "Don't bother with that big boat, just sail over there and rescue the criminals first!"

However, the pirate ship seemed to have the same idea as Huo Weidong, and they also headed towards the sunken ship of the Japanese pirates at full speed. They were closer than Qi's army's ship, and their speed was faster. They found Aino Xiongfei before Huo Weidong. Pulled up from the sea, hung in mid-air like a salted fish.Although Aino Xiongfei was fierce and brave, he was caught in the net bag, unable to display all kinds of martial arts, and he looked very embarrassed struggling in the net with his body soaked.

Seeing that the prisoner was snatched away by the pirates, the deputy general You Yong looked at Huo Weidong with a worried face, and whispered: "General, what should we do now?"

This is also the question in everyone's mind. The pirates' enemies and friends are unknown. Although the pirates were defeated, but the criminals were captured, what should be the next step?

Huo Weidong said calmly: "Be safe and don't be impatient, let's not move yet, and wait for Widow Miao to make a move."

Sure enough, the pirate ship was heading towards Qi's army, within a short time, the distance was within the range of the artillery.The officers and soldiers of the Qi family army couldn't help becoming nervous. The Frankie cannon of the pirate ship was very powerful. Everyone saw it just now. Even if the big ship is stable, it must be guarded against.The gunners were consciously in place, ready to push out the cannons in red, and put on a posture to face the battle.

Unexpectedly, Huo Weidong ordered: "Don't load the cannon, just wait here."

"General..." You Yong anxiously tried to dissuade him.

"No need to say too much, I have my own opinion!"

Hundreds of soldiers of the Qi family army just watched the pirate ship swaggering over. Not far away, there were the wreckage of the sunken ship and the corpses of more than a dozen Japanese pirates floating on the sea.

Huo Weidong treated the pirates so tolerantly, Gu Huaiqing couldn't help asking: "Who is that widow Miao you are talking about?"

As soon as Gu Huaiqing said this, he saw You Yong glared at him coldly with dissatisfaction, while the other generals of the Qi family army looked a little embarrassed, and they all looked at Huo Weidong in unison without saying a word.

Huo Weidong had no choice but to cough in a low voice, and said, "Widow Miao is the leader of pirates running across the East China Sea."

Gu Huaiqing wondered: "If you are a pirate, how can you be led by a woman, or a widow?"

Huo Weidong glanced at it and saw that the pirate's ship was moving slowly and couldn't get close for a while, so he patiently explained to Gu Huaiqing.

"The origin of this Miao family is unknown. Some people say that she was originally a Jianghu girl, and some people say that she came from a family background, but one thing is certain, that is, although she is a woman, she has outstanding martial arts. She first followed a pirate leader, and later the pirate After she died, she became a widow, set up her own family, gathered a group of pirates, and plundered in the East China Sea, and the Taoists called her Widow Miao."

Gu Huaiqing asked: "Did the imperial court let it go?"

"The gang of pirates led by Widow Miao has thousands of people. They are equipped with sophisticated weapons and occupy several islands in the sea. Their whereabouts are surreptitious and elusive. The imperial court has sent people to encircle and suppress them twice, but Widow Miao is very cunning and can't catch them at all. Seeing her, they failed to return twice. What’s more, the biggest scourge along the coast is the Japanese pirates. The pirates just plunder the merchant ships, unlike the Japanese pirates who go ashore to burn, kill and rob. host."

Gu Huaiqing saw the widow of Caimiao bombarding the Japanese pirates just now, her advances and retreats were measured, she seemed courageous and resourceful, although she had not met, she must be a strange woman, and she had a good impression of her in her heart, so she said: "The pirates are also members of my Daqi, if not Due to their livelihood, it is estimated that they do not want to become pirates, so it would be the best if they can try to recruit them."

"Haha! Recruiting the widow of An Miao is easy to say, and it's not just a matter of our general!" The one who spoke was Huo Weidong's personal guard Hu Er, a rude man who looked a little bit dirty.

You Yong scolded with a stern face: "Shut up! How can you make fun of the general!"

Hu Er is not afraid of You Yong. He is Huo Weidong's childhood friend. He has known him since he wore open crotch pants.Although he is a bit of a mess, he is very trusted by Huo Weidong, but he has never been a good match with You Yong.

Hu Er stared and shouted: "None of your business! Did I say something wrong? The woman surnamed Miao has long been interested in our general. As long as the general nods to accept her, it's not a matter of minutes. thing?"

The amount of information in these words was a bit large, Duan Mingchen and Gu Huaiqing looked at each other, although the location was inappropriate, but a little bit of gossip ignited in their hearts.
