Qian Wubing understands this, and so does Xu Qianqian. If Luzon Island is full of remnants who fear the enemy like tigers, Commander Qian probably doesn't have much enthusiasm to risk the lives of his own soldiers. Just that.
Seeing that there were more merchant ships than warships in the fleet, Xu Qianqian knew that this was not the size of the fleet that had brought her ancestors great honor and glory in the past, even though there was a Jin Yiwei commanding the fleet.
make.
However, the greater possibility is that the commander of the Jinyiwei brought his own merchant ship to make money overseas!
Therefore, it is a favor for people to act righteously on the things on Luzon Island, and it is normal to turn a blind eye. Is it possible that she can also send an envoy to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to sue the Qian command envoy, saying that he will not see death?
Can't be saved!
Xu Qianqian completely took it for granted that Qian Wubing asked her to gather people and cooperate inside and outside. Yes, even if someone helped, the ones who stayed here in the end were still their locals. This fleet from the Ming Dynasty could not stay forever.
Here, they can help her for a while, but they can't help her forever!
People, after all, still have to rely on themselves!
Hungry Tiger Beach is indeed a dangerous beach. It is still several miles away. Xu Qianqian asked the boat that brought them to stop. For the rest of the journey, they have to rely on small boats to get across. If the big boat continues to move forward, it will hit the rocks.
No.
In the night, Xu Qianqian looked at Mu Siniang, who was sitting side by side with him, and then at the group of faint black figures behind him. They were Mu Qianhu's personal soldiers. Sure enough, he was from the Overseas Qianhu Institute.
Among Mu Qianhu's soldiers, there were Fuso people, Ryukyu people, and even Spaniards, but no Ming people. It was a strange combination.
Well, this Mu Qianhu doesn't like to talk much, and she looks a bit delicate. I don't know why Commander Qian is so trusting of her. Maybe she really has some abilities!
In my wild thoughts, I had reached the shore unknowingly. Xu Qianqian led the way, and Mu Siniang and her group followed her and walked towards the dark dense forest.
There is a village more than three miles away from here. Xu Qianqian remembers clearly that most of the people in the village are Chinese, but there are also a few families of local natives, but these natives are relatively law-abiding.
That kind of person is relatively gentle compared to the unscrupulous natives in other places.
Of course, no matter how gentle she is, Xu Qianqian still has to avoid those families at this time. No one among them can rush to the Xu family's manor silently in the middle of the night, and no one can take her away.
The news of calling for manpower spread to all directions within a day, and she had to rely on trustworthy people in the village.
A group of figures quietly walked into the village in the night. There was the occasional barking of dogs, but it quickly disappeared. Xu Qianqian didn't want to know, in this night, this Mu Qianhu's subordinate
, how to kill those dogs.
In front of a courtyard with complete brick walls, Xu Qianqian stood still and heard a low knock on the door.
"Who is it!" The lights in the yard came out, and there was a rustling voice. Xu Qianqian leaned against the door and said in a low voice: "Mingyou! Yongchang!"
The yard suddenly became quiet, and a vigilant voice came from inside: "It's getting dark!"
"Chai can make a fire!" Xu Qianqian responded!
The door creaked open, but no one was there. Xu Qianqian waved to Mu Siniang and walked in first!
"There's actually an incision!" Mu Siniang smiled slightly and followed her in.
"The one whose name starts with Chai is from the Governor's Mansion. Oh, it's Miss Qianqian..." As soon as she walked in, Mu Siniang saw a tall man kneeling in front of Xu Qianqian in shock.
, the lantern in his hand was tilted aside by him.
"Let's talk after we go in!" Xu Qianqian pulled him up and nodded behind her: "I brought some friends with me and need some help!"
The man got up from the ground and picked up the lantern on the ground: "It's okay, the village is full of our people. In the afternoon, the order came from the fortress. Those households that were an eyesore are no longer in the village!
"
At this time, he saw Mu Siniang and others, and he was slightly startled when he saw that they were a group of women. Apparently, Xu Qianqian's meaning of "friends" did not seem to be compatible with women.
"That's it!" Xu Qianqian finally felt relieved, "Those Spaniards are panicking. All the people who can be used are gathered together. They can't care about us now!"
"Uncle Zhu, how many people are there in the village that we can use?" She actually smiled and asked as the man in front of her greeted the guests she had brought to sit down.
"Is there going to be an uprising!?" The man's face turned red after hearing this order: "Everyone is waiting for the order from the Governor's Mansion. As long as Miss Qianqian gives the order, no one in our village, old or young, is afraid.
Damn it!"
"This is Mu Qianhu from the Ming Dynasty!" Xu Qianqian pointed at Mu Siniang: "The good days of the Spaniards and their accomplices are over. Now, the Ming Dynasty's fleet is parked in the open sea, waiting for our signal.
We should cooperate inside and outside, and together we can take back our place!"
The man hurriedly paid tribute to Mu Siniang. He might not believe what others said. He had heard such rumors several times over the years, but when these words came from Miss Qianqian's mouth, he had to believe them.
"Let everyone in the village who can move move. Before dark tomorrow, all villages that can reach your Hungry Tiger Village must be notified. Tell them that the Xu family needs warriors who can fight with swords and guns!" Xu Qianqian this
At that time, she was no longer as soft and weak as she was on the boat. She looked so heroic and vigorous, which even made Mu Siniang a little envious.
"If you can get to us before dark tomorrow..." The man mused: "Miss Qianqian, we can only notify more than 20 villages, and we can't guarantee that the news will not be leaked. This way
Is it really okay to do it?”
"Let's do it!" Xu Qianqian finished, "Let me make it clear to everyone, this is our last chance. If we don't want to be bullied by those outsiders again, everyone should come to Hungry Tiger Beach. Master Wang is here
At sea, if these Spaniards cannot be expelled this time, then from now on, there will no longer be my Xu family in Luzon, and there will no longer be a place for us Chinese to gain a foothold!"
…
For the fearful Spaniards and their indigenous puppet troops in Luzon Port, this day was really a long day! On the sea in the distance, the huge fleet seemed to be completely frozen on the sea.
There was no sign of leaving, and no sign of entering the harbor. If they hadn't accidentally seen small boats passing between the big ships, they would have suspected whether this was some kind of magic released by those mysterious orientals.
It's like the real mirage you see in the desert.
However, they did not have the guts to poke at it with the swords and guns in their hands to see if it was a phantom. All they could do was to hold the only weapon in their hands that could bring them comfort in fear, waiting for who knew when it would be possible.
When the order to fight rang out, perhaps they never wanted to wait for that order.
It is also a long day for those on the fleet!
The helmsman, lookout, scribe who was responsible for recording and observing the charts, and the boatman who guided the route on each ship were all taken out and questioned carefully by the people sent by Mr. Qian.
Not to mention the leader of those who came, he was Uncle Wang, who has been very popular in front of Mr. Qian recently. The group of royal guards who followed him all had the lowest status of Xiaoqi, and almost all of them had worked in Nanya in the capital.
Damn, these people in the fleet are usually regarded as Lord Qian's personal soldiers. Although there is no such saying, everyone thinks so.
This is a big deal! Especially those who have sailed on the sea for a long time, they are somewhat unsure. The fleet’s goal this time is the Boni Kingdom. Now that it has come to Luzon, no matter how far the route is, it will not matter.
It's so outrageous. Everyone has been eating at sea all their lives. Who doesn't know about the stuff on this ship that determines the route? Now that such a big mistake has been made, Mr. Qian must be furious and won't give up until he finds out a reason.
Got it!
No one refuses to cooperate, and no one dares to refuse to cooperate. Among the people led by Uncle Wang, there are people who are proficient in interrogation and interrogation. Don’t forget, what does Jinyiwei Nanya do for food? Lying about this kind of thing is against yourself.
He is not responsible for his life and future.
Before dark in the afternoon, Qian Wubing got the news brought back by Wang Yu. Except for seven or eight people who had drunk or otherwise violated the rules while on duty, everyone agreed that they were following the chart and Simon.
The guidance was accurate and the navigation was accurate. As for why such a big error occurred and why it deviated so far from the route, no one can tell the story of Chou Yinmao.
"This is unlikely, sir. I think the weirdness of this matter probably lies in those few people, including those on your flagship. More than half of them are from the navy!" Wang Yu carefully chose his words.
: "My subordinates think this is too strange!"
"Is there no one from Liu Hua?" Qian Wubing asked.
"No!" Wang Yu naturally knew what he meant: "In this position, it is not their turn to come down here for the time being. These people are all on the ship with the fleet when they set sail!"
He asked cautiously: "Sir, do you want to torture me and use some methods? If someone is really causing trouble, I am afraid that if I see us making such a move, I will grit my teeth and not dare to speak out!"
"I don't have time to take care of them at the moment. Let's take care of the things on the shore first and lock them up first!" He thought for a while and ordered: "If this matter is not figured out, the fleet will not go to sea for a day. In this case
