Xia Xun said slowly: "However, this requires the cooperation of you and Master Xu."
Su Ying said coldly: "If the prince doesn't agree, you, a low-level official running errands, can make the decision??"
Xia Xun smiled and said: "Why belittle yourself? Sometimes, small people can also make history."
Su Ying glanced at him: "Tell me about it."
Xia Xun said: "If you want to open up the sea for trade, you are playing harem to a cow. Don't even think about it. I can only promise you now to try my best to protect your Shuangyu Island, destroy the Chumi Gang, and even destroy Chen Zuyi. This is also true for you."
There are great benefits, you just have to go with the flow and help the imperial court, but you also use the imperial court's military power, there is no loss, why not do it?"
After that, he explained the strategy he had just thought of in detail. Su Ying began to ponder, stood up, and walked slowly in the room, her eyes wandering, thinking carefully.
Suddenly, she turned around, like a female leopard, and pounced towards Xia Xun. She bent her elbow and revealed a sharp dagger that she had held in her hand at some point.
With a crook of his elbow, he knocked Xia Xun, who was caught off guard, onto the couch. He jumped up and pressed him tightly. The blade of the dagger was placed under his throat, and he said viciously: "You bastard, you want to deceive me."
Shuangyu Island?”
After Xia Xun was startled, he quickly calmed down and did not resist. He just said coldly: "Shuangyu Island? Does Shuangyu Island have what I want?"
His eyes darkened, staring at the two heavy, plump and soft balls touching his chest, and he said with a half-smile, "If it's the treasure island on the third master's chest, I might be interested."
"puff!"
Xia Xun received a hard blow on the crotch, and was hit hard with the knee by Su Ying, who was as fierce as a leopard. Xia Xun's body immediately stooped, and he curled up on the couch, unable to even breathe.
"You are so courageous, you dare to tease me, you are the only one who shits like a scorpion!"
Su Ying's wrist trembled, and the dagger in her hand flew into the air with a flash of light, flipped around, and landed accurately in her hand, pressing it against the back of Xia Xun's head: "Let me give you some blood, and see if you still dare to take advantage of it."
It’s my mother’s bargain.”
Xia Xun said painfully: "Do you... have a pig brain? If... I have ill intentions towards you, do you think I will come back alone? When I come back, I will have long...
We came with a large number of officers and soldiers."
Su Ying curled her lips and said proudly: "Do you think I'm stupid? I came here alone with you, why are you waiting here? Humph, I knew you were back before your people entered the alley. If
If you really bring troops, you won't even be able to see my shadow."
Xia Xun took a deep breath, slowly relaxed his body, and said, "Okay, even if this doesn't prove my sincerity, it can at least prove that I have no ill intentions, right?"
Su Ying said: "You officials are full of twists and turns. Who knows what you are planning? Maybe you are fishing for a big fish in a long-term way, just to defraud my Shuangyu Island without any bloodshed?"
Xia Xun said helplessly: "Then we can't talk. You go back to your Shuangyu Island and deal with Chen Zuyi and Chu Mi's bandits while preparing to deal with the imperial navy's encirclement and suppression. Whether Cao Guogong succeeds in suppressing the bandits is none of my business.
I am just a small general in uniform. I just obey orders. If I am not in my position and do not seek political power, how can I be idle? Those who know me say that I am worried, but those who don’t know me say that what do I want...
"
Su Ying hesitated for a moment and said: "Get up, don't pretend to be dead!"
Xia Xun said sarcastically: "If you want to kill me or cut me into pieces, it's up to you, what else do you want?"
Su Ying bit her lip, turned the handle of the knife over, hit him hard on the waist angrily, and shouted: "Get up as soon as I tell you, why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Xia Xun groaned in pain, knowing that the female pirate was not serious, so she had no choice but to sit up.
Su Ying retracted her dagger, glanced at him and said: "Using Shuangyu Island as bait, I can't be the master of this."
Xia Xun spread his hands and said, "I'm just telling you my plan. Did I ask you to agree? You make arrangements and let me meet Master Xu, and I'll tell him."
Su Ying started pacing in the room again. After a while, she suddenly stood still, widened her almond-shaped eyes, and said viciously to Xia Xun: "Remember, if you lie to me, I will definitely gouge out your heart with my own hands."
, make you into dry human food!”
※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※
Under Su Ying's arrangement, Xia Xun hid in a cargo ship and came to Shuangyu Island again, the cave under Turtle Back Cliff, and met Xu Hu again.
Xu Hu listened to Xia Xun's detailed explanation of the future, and said suspiciously: "Li Jinglong won't accept our conditions. I've already thought of this. Let you give it a try, and there is only half a chance. What I didn't expect is that he won't agree to us."
It’s just a condition, it’s obviously something that is very beneficial to him. If I don’t accept the recruitment, he would be too stupid to even join forces to deal with the Chumi Gang and deal with Chen Zuyi.”
Xia Xun said: "That's not necessarily the case. From your position as the head of the family, of course you are considering your immediate interests. From the position of Cao Guogong, he also has his considerations. If he agrees to cooperate, how can he save his face? Be an official.
Yes, there is always the honor of being an official. Besides, how could Duke Cao know that he couldn't deal with the bandits of the East China Sea without giving it a try?"
Xu Hu smiled and said: "But you seem to be convinced that he can't kill us?"
Xia Xun shook his head and said: "This is ridiculous. It's not that I think he can't deal with you, but that he can't destroy the pirates. Even if he can kill you, the Chumi Gang and even Chen Zuyi, it won't take a few years for him to be able to destroy the pirates at sea."
There are other pirate gangs that have re-emerged, and their actions are even a hundred times worse than yours, so why bother?"
Xu Hu frowned and said: "Mr. Yang, according to your plan, you won't make any contribution in it. All the credit belongs to him, Li Jinglong. You won't get any benefits from our side. Why are you doing this?"
?”
Xia Xun said: "The one who received the order to suppress the bandits in the East China Sea was Cao Guogong. Any achievements made by him belong to Cao Guogong. No matter how outstanding my performance is, if I want to let the superiors know, it all depends on his pen. If he doesn't want to write
, I still have no merit, should I go beyond him to ask for credit from the emperor? This is a taboo in official circles. I believe that even on your Shuangyu Island, no petty boss is stupid enough to go beyond the second and third masters to ask for credit from you.
Would you like a reward?"
Xu Hu stared at him intently and said slowly: "You haven't told me yet. If that's the case, why are you doing this? If Li Jinglong doesn't agree, you can stay in his place and stay safe without any risk.
Why bother to show up and take such danger?"
Xia Xun said: "It's still for the sake of merit!"
Xu Hu asked doubtfully: "How do you say this?"
Xia Xun said: "Is it a merit or demerit that you are cornered on Shuangyu Island and forced to join Chen Zuyi's gang of thieves who are committing robberies everywhere? There is no room for two tigers in one mountain. If you can protect Shuangyu Island where you are still a good thief, you can restrain it."
The rise of rogue bandits in the East China Sea; use your power to eradicate the Chumi Gang, which does all evil, and millions of people in coastal provinces will benefit. Isn't this merit? When a man makes meritorious deeds in the world, he must be praised and commended by the court for it to be considered meritorious?
I only want to do something worthy of the conscience of heaven and earth, so why should I care so much?"
"good!"
Su Ying high-fived her in praise. Xu Hu glanced at her. Su Ying's face suddenly turned red and she said nonchalantly: "I...I think what he said seems to make sense."
Xu Hu coughed and said: "Mr. Yang's words are indeed very righteous and touching, but...if you don't serve yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. You are an official, so it's really hard for me to believe you."
For such selfless reasons."
Xia Xun smiled and said, "But you can't deny that my plan is beneficial to you."
Xu Hu narrowed his eyes and said, "How come there isn't? You want me to use Shuangyu as bait. Once this place is lost, my foundation will be gone. Who knows if you will hunt rabbits in the grass and take care of us together?"
Xia Xun said: "The East China Sea is vast and there are countless islands. Shuangyu is not the only one with pirated islands. If Shuangyu is lost, Master Xu will be like a rootless duck and can only wander around the world. I'm afraid this...
Master Xu Da, you yourself don’t believe it. The reason why Shuangyu is important is just because it is the only way for the Japanese tribute bandits to pass through. It is the key point that blocks the routes from north to south and east to west, and it is a natural danger in the ocean..."
Xu Hu said: "Since you know it, you should know how important it is to the survival of our gang!"
Xia Xun said: "Master Xu, if I don't advise you to give up voluntarily, then you and the Chumi Gang, Chen Zuyi and the imperial army are enemies on three sides, will you be able to defend Shuangyu? Or, you can go to Chen Zuyi. In that case, you
It’s not like we have to give up Shuangyu. Do you think Chen Zuyi will not keep this piece of fat in his own hands? My plan is to eradicate the Chumi Gang first. Then who else is yours on the East China Sea?
Rival? If you can dominate the East China Sea, even if you lose the two islets, what's the problem of survival? This is one of them.
Chen Zuyi's foundation is in Nanyang. Even if we can't kill him, we can still destroy his troops and severely weaken his vitality. At least for a few years, it will be difficult for you to embarrass your family. By then, you will dominate the East China Sea and you will not be able to compete with him as the King of the South China Sea.
Higher or lower? Chen Zuyi’s threat can be solved from this, this is the second one.
Third, at the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court listed Shuangyu as a deportation and abandonment site due to inconvenient land and sea transportation and supply difficulties, and all the islanders moved inward. The situation has not changed now. Do you think the imperial court will station heavy troops here? What if?
The plan is well-planned. The imperial navy is eager to chase the Nanyang thief Chen Zuyi, who is currently offering a reward of 500,000 yuan. The Shuangyu Islands are completely unguarded, so you can successfully recover them. To say the least, even if the plan changes, the East China Sea will be yours to monopolize, and Chen Zuyi can no longer control it.
Going north easily will pose a threat to you. Is this reward worth giving up a piece of Shuangyu Island that you can't hold in the first place and must be surrendered to one side?"
Xu Hu was silent for a long time, then laughed loudly: "If you don't get along, you can't trap the wolf. If it works, it's up to you!"
Xia Xun praised: "The master makes a decisive decision and is truly outstanding."
Xu Hu smiled and said: "I don't dare to take it. After meeting Mr. Yang today, I realized that not all officials in the government are greedy for profit and only care about their own advancement. If there were more people like you who put the people first
As an important official, I, Xu Hu, can no longer be a great leader, so I might as well break up and get married, hahaha..."
The laughter stopped suddenly, and Xu Hu suddenly said: "When my people are doing internal response, I also ask General Yang Qi to go with me. Before I take back Shuangyu Island, everything there must be entrusted to you!"
Xia Xun was startled, and then realized that he was being held hostage. He couldn't help but laugh, and replied readily: "Your Majesty, everything will be as ordered by the master."
Xu Hu then grabbed his arm and shook it hard, and laughed heartily.
