Liu Xiang, who suffered a disastrous defeat in Penghu, knew that there was a fleet of ships behind him that was biting him hard.
He also knew better that the person following him was the person who brought him a humiliating failure in Penghu:
The famous Penghu garrison, the heroic cavalry officer Ding Yunyi!
This man was simply himself, no, the nemesis of the entire pirates. Countless pirates were peeping at Penghu, and before Ding Yunyi came, Penghu was like a piece of unguarded fat that anyone could take a bite of.
Hong Yi, pirate...
But after Ding Yunyi came to Penghu, all this changed fundamentally.
Hitachi Gong Yaota and Oniomaru fell to Penghu one by one. Now, it is finally the turn of Liu Xiang, who was once equally arrogant.
Where did Ding Yunyi come from? Liu Xiang couldn't figure it out.
But he no longer needs to figure this out. What he should worry about is how to get rid of the hateful tracking fleet behind him. Ding Yunyi has already made it clear that he wants to eradicate the weeds and kill them all. Liu Xiang has never encountered such a situation.
Even though they suffered a huge defeat at Liaoluowan, even if they failed to attack an important officer in a sneak attack, whether it was the Ming Dynasty or the Hongyi, they were defeated if they defeated the other side. They had never been pursued so fiercely.
In addition to being angry and hating Ding Yunyi, who wanted to kill him, there were two people who made Liu Xiang grit his teeth even more:
Li Guo and Lizi Lake!
After the Battle of Penghu began, Li Guo's seven ships never participated in the battle. The defeat of the pirate fleet was first revealed, and Li Guo quickly ordered his fleet to evacuate.
Although Liu Xiang hated Li Guo, he also knew that Li Guo was very good at naval battles. He also firmly believed that if Li Guo's fleet had participated in the Penghu naval battle from the beginning, the result might have been very different.
However, although he hated it, now that his fleet had suffered a disastrous defeat and suffered heavy losses, and he still needed Li Guo to protect him at a critical moment, he could only suppress this resentment in his heart for the time being.
It's completely different for Lizi Lake.
Liu Xiang adopted him as his adopted son, but who would have thought that at the most critical moment, Li Zihu would abandon his adopted father and escape alone, making Liu Xiang furious.
But now even if Liu Xiang wants to kill Lizihu to satisfy his hatred, there is no other way. Lizihu has disappeared after the Penghu naval battle...
...
"Guan Qi."
"exist."
Standing on the deck, Lizihu looked at the vast sea with a depressed face. Although he managed to escape with his life, he was still worried about what might happen next.
Regardless of whether he would fall into the hands of officers and soldiers, if Liu Xiang caught him, the consequences would be very serious.
Li Zihu sighed inwardly: "How is the situation?"
Guan Qibi said respectfully: "The officers and soldiers are chasing very closely. Ding Yunyi has already made up his mind to catch Liu Xiang."
"Where is Liu Xiang now?"
"He is circling with the officers and soldiers. I have been with Liu Xiang. Although this man is headstrong, he is also very cunning. Judging from the route of his fleet, it is very likely that he will go straight to Kinmen after several circles!"
"Go straight to Kinmen?" Li Zihu sneered: "Does he still want to fight to the death? Guan Qi, let me ask you, now Liu Xiang is probably bent on catching me and putting me to death. Should you follow me or arrest me?
Dedicate it to Liu Xiangna?"
Guan Qi was startled. Although he had not followed Li Zihu for a long time, he knew that although this man was only seventeen years old, he was ruthless and quick-witted. He hurriedly replied: "Liu Xiang refuses to listen to others, so
With this defeat, we have all followed the leader, and Liu Xiang will not tolerate it if he retreats first in the Penghu naval battle, so we can only follow the leader wholeheartedly."
Li Zihu nodded with satisfaction: "This is best. Don't worry, as long as you follow me, I will definitely find a way to make you rich and prosperous. But the top priority is how to get rid of the officers and soldiers and Liu Xiang."
Having said this, he sneered, called Guan Qi to his side, and lowered his voice: "Find a way to let the officers and soldiers know that Liu Xiang's fleet is planning to take a detour to Kinmen."
Guan Qi was startled, but then he realized that Li Zihu was going to use the help of officers and soldiers to eradicate Liu Xiang.
He took a breath and quickly nodded in agreement. Then he felt a little uneasy: "Where should we go? The officers and soldiers are chasing us very hard now."
"I have already thought about it." Lizihu said with a cold face: "There is no place for us and others in Fujian and other places. The only place we can go to now is Fusang Country!"
...
At this time, Li Guo was also worried about his future.
I regret that I didn't listen to Zheng Zhilong and accept the recruitment, otherwise I wouldn't have to be so worried now. What I regret even more is why I was so blind that I went to a narrow-minded person like Liu Xiang.
Unfortunately it's too late to say anything now.
The only ones he can trust at the moment are his fleet of seven ships and his cousin Guo Chuang.
"Cousin, Liu Xiang has invited you to discuss matters on his ship several times, why have you never gone?" Guo Chuang, who is reckless by nature and doesn't like to use his brain, asked carelessly.
Li Guochao glared at his cousin: "How can I come back alive after going there? Liu Xiang was always jealous of me, but this time I retreated without a fight, and Liu Xiang hated me even more, but now he
His strength is not as good as before, so he doesn't dare to act rashly against me, but once I get on his ship, I will immediately become a turtle in a urn."
Guo Chuang scratched his head. He couldn't understand such a complicated thing anyway: "Then what should we do now?"
What to do? Li Guo himself didn’t know what to do.
Guo Chuang muttered to himself: "If you want me to see that, let's just surrender to the officers and soldiers. I heard that Ye Dahai is also among the officers and soldiers. You have friendship with him, why don't you go find him?"
Li Guo's eyes lit up for a moment, but then dimmed: "It's not that I haven't thought about it this way, but my Li family was a bandit in the past, how could the officers and soldiers accommodate us? Don't fail to surrender, and instead be beheaded inexplicably.
"
"How do you know if you haven't tried it?" Guo Chuang couldn't wrap his head around it and said unconvincingly: "Pirates like Ye Dahai and Zhang Xianxuan have accepted the recruitment, and we haven't done any big bad things, so how can the officers and soldiers do it?
Are you unwilling to take us in? Besides, I heard that Penghu guard Ding Yunyi is a great person, or he may not be as dangerous as you think."
"Don't talk nonsense." Li Guo's eyes widened: "If word spreads, Liu Xiang will definitely come to destroy us at all costs. You can only think about these things in your heart."
Although he said this, his heart was already quietly moving. Yes, if the officers and soldiers surrendered, would the officers and soldiers let him go and forget about his past?
