Ang Lee and his six armed clippers were only thirty miles away from the oncoming pirate fleet. Because the two sides were heading towards each other, they would soon meet each other. Because it was just dawn, the light was not enough, so the pirates did not notice anything unusual. Even if they saw six ships on the way back, they could not determine who these six ships belonged to. They did not have binoculars, so they could only rely on their own eyes to observe. Naturally, the distance of observation was much closer.
"Assistant Minister Li, it's really amazing. He said that he would encounter pirates in the morning, and he really did. Moreover, this time, the pirates obviously returned with a full load. With three large cargo ships, even if they were carrying ordinary goods, it would still be a lot of wealth."
Chen Long looked at the pirate fleet thirty miles away and said excitedly.
Since these merchant ships had been captured by the pirates, it was the pirates' harvest. When the soldiers defeated the pirates, the wealth naturally belonged to the soldiers. It was impossible to return it to the merchants who were robbed. The soldiers worked hard to defeat the pirates, so how could they not get some benefits? Therefore, when they saw that the pirates had succeeded in robbing, they were naturally very happy. If the pirates returned empty-handed, the soldiers' interest might not be so high.
Ang Lee said with a smile, "Such a large merchant ship, and it's a sealed model, the goods it is transporting are definitely not cheap. The total value should not be small. If it were ordinary and worthless goods, the pirates would not have robbed the merchant ship."
In fact, there were many types of merchant ships. There were at least hundreds of different types of merchant ships. There were large merchant ships, medium-sized merchant ships, and small merchant ships. According to the types of goods transported by merchant ships, they could be divided into sealed and open types. Sealed merchant ships looked more like tower ships. The goods were piled up in the cabin, so there was no need to worry about wind and rain. On the other hand, open merchant ships had goods piled up in the open air, so it was easy to be exposed to wind and rain. Even if there were clothes to prevent rain and sun, the effect would not be very good. There were also some goods that did not need to be covered at all. For example, ordinary wood, ore, and other materials with a relatively low unit weight price were directly placed on the open deck. There was no need to use houses to cover these cheap goods.
Even some of the mid-range goods were mostly placed on the deck in the open air. They only needed to be covered with a raincloth. As for the most high-end goods, they were carefully placed in the safer cabins for fear of loss.
Therefore, when he saw the size and model of the three merchant ships, Ang Lee knew that these three merchant ships must be loaded with high-end goods. The value of these goods was definitely not low. If he could get these goods in his hands, Ang Lee would gain a lot of wealth. He could reward the soldiers under his command more generously.
"Haha! It seems that we are going to make a fortune again. The pirates have once again made a wedding dress for us. This feeling is really wonderful. "
Chen Long said excitedly.
Li An smiled and looked at the pirate fleet in front of him. He said, "Tell the soldiers to get ready immediately. Speed up and approach the pirate ships. Don't give them a chance to escape. Capture all three merchant ships and the pirate ships."
..........
. Chen Long responded.
The six armed clippers rushed to the oncoming pirates as fast as possible. They were ready to eliminate the pirates before they could react. The faster the soldiers rushed, the less time the pirates had to prepare. Ang Lee and the other soldiers' results would be more brilliant.
Because of the plunder, the pirates were not particularly anxious to return to the nest. At night, more than half of the brothers were resting, and only a few people were still paddling. Therefore, the distance they traveled at night was not very far, and the distance they traveled in one night was only a few dozen miles.
At this time, the sky was already bright. The resting pirates got up and prepared to eat breakfast. Yesterday's harvest made them very satisfied. Therefore, they slept very soundly.
A pirate who had just woken up stood on the deck and rubbed his eyes. Suddenly, he saw six ships approaching in front. However, because it was too far, he could not see very clearly. Soon, some pirates discovered the ships in front. As time passed, more and more pirates discovered the ships in front. However, most of the pirates did not take this matter to heart. They were fierce pirates. Why would they care about a mere six ships?
"My King, there are six medium-sized ships in front of us."
Black Panther's confidant walked up to the Black Panther and said.
"Did you see what ships they are?"
Black Panther seemed to be in a good mood and asked.
The confidant shook his head and said, "It's too far. I can't see clearly. It's probably a medium-sized fishing ship! There are quite a lot of ribbonfish in this area. They should be fishermen who came to catch ribbonfish. "
Obviously, the pirates often encountered fishermen. Therefore, they were not surprised to see ships on the way.
Black Panther said casually, "Got it. Tell the brothers to speed up after eating and drinking. Let's try to get back before dark tomorrow."
Because of the good harvest, Black Panther was in a particularly good mood. However, it was better to go back as soon as possible. Black Panther did not want to waste too much time on the way back.
After breakfast, Black Panther brought over the most valuable treasures his subordinates found on the merchant ships and let Black Panther slowly play with them.
Black Panther picked up a piece of gold cake and gently put it down. Then, he picked up a glass-like porcelain and exquisite silk. His eyes were full of greed. This was not a small amount of wealth. It was enough for him to spend for a long time.
Pirates were greedy and fierce. Naturally, they did not have much resistance to things like money and treasures. They risked their lives to rob. Naturally, it was gold and silver.
"My King, these silk suits your temperament very well. Why don't we hire a tailor to make a few robes for you?"
"My King, this golden silk is good. I think it can be made into a dragon robe. We just need to find someone to embroider a few dragons on it. Our King will definitely look majestic in a dragon robe. Hahaha!"
"My King, I think we can give it a try. Why can the old emperor wear a dragon robe but we can't? We are all humans. Why can't he wear it?"
"That's right. We have all lived on grains for decades. No one is lower than the other. We are all the same. What the old emperor can do, we can do too."
"Nobles and generals have the guts. My King, we brothers support you in making a few dragon robes. We can also make a few qilin robes to wear. Hehe!"
Several confidants said arrogantly.
The Black Panther was in a good mood. When he heard his confidants say so, his mood became even better. He smiled intoxicatedly and said, "Brothers, you flatter me. If you like it, then let's make a few robes to satisfy our cravings. Damn it, we also live for a lifetime. Why can't we enjoy the same treatment as the emperor?"
"My King, dragon robes alone are not enough. We should also bring back more women. Look at the Black Dragon Emperor. He already has more than ten concubines. Big Brother should also get a few permanent ones. Only then will he be more imposing."
One of his confidants said.
The Black Panther would occasionally encounter young and beautiful women during his robberies. Naturally, he would not let them go. However, this was at most a night of fun. After playing for a while, the Black Panther would return to Black Panther Island with the loot. He would not bring the young women back to the island. It could be said that there was not a single woman on the entire Black Panther Island.
The reason for this was that the Black Panther felt that it was troublesome. Or perhaps, he was worried that after taking back the women and giving birth to children, he would become different and soft-hearted. This would not be conducive to continuing his life of robbing. He was prepared to continue robbing and become a pirate who made a living by robbing.
I have been using the book app recently. There are many sources of books, complete books, and the updates are fast! "
"Forget it. I still like to play with new things. Don't you get tired of looking at the same face every day?"
The Black Panther said rudely.
"Hahaha!"
Several of his trusted subordinates beside him laughed out loud.
One of the pirates curiously looked at the six ships coming towards them. Suddenly, he saw the models of the six ships clearly and was shocked.
"Aren't these the armed clippers unique to our Black Dragon Islands? Yes, that's right. They are armed clippers. They are the same as the ones we are riding."
The pirate was shocked when he saw that the six ships coming towards them were all armed clippers.
"Armed clippers! They are armed clippers! There are a total of six of them. How can there be so many? It's really strange!"
"Could it be the fleet under the Black Dragon Emperor? Only the Black Dragon Emperor would have so many clippers."
"Why would the Black Dragon Emperor appear here so coincidentally? Could it be that he is up to something? There is no reason for the news of us robbing three merchant ships to leak out!"
"It shouldn't be wrong. In the Black Dragon Islands, other than the Black Dragon Emperor, no other party has six armed clippers. It must be."
"Six ships are coming towards us quickly. Why do I feel that they are coming with ill intentions?"
"This is not a small matter. We must inform the king immediately and let the king decide how to deal with it."
A group of pirates discovered the six armed clippers one after another and were immediately frightened.
"Not good, my king. Six armed clippers are rushing towards us."
"My king, those six are all armed clippers unique to our seas. They are indeed rushing towards us. They are very fast."
"My king, these must be the armed clippers under the Black Dragon Emperor. There are a total of six of them. If we really fight, we are no match for them. "
"My king, the Black Dragon Emperor is not here to rob us, is he?"
Several pirates ran over to report.
The Black Panther was also shocked when he heard this. He quickly got up and walked to the deck. He was shocked when he saw the six armed clippers more than ten miles away.
"My king, could it be that the Black Dragon Emperor is going to attack us?"
"My king, if there is no other way, we can just give them half of the loot."
"The Black Dragon Emperor's appetite is not small. I think we can only keep one merchant ship at most. We have to give at least two merchant ships to the Black Dragon Emperor."
"Fortunately, we have already taken the most valuable gold pancakes and jewels. Otherwise, our losses would be even greater."
"My king, we can only revive. We definitely do not have the strength to fight against the Black Dragon."
Several confidants looked at the Black Panther and said.
The Black Panther also regarded the fleet brought by Ang Lee as the Black Dragon Emperor's team. His eyes were filled with anger. This time, he had robbed a large amount of wealth. The wealth was enough for him to expand his strength several times. However, he encountered the Black Dragon on the way back. This made him very angry. If more than half of the loot was given to the Black Dragon Emperor, his loss would be too great. Once the Black Dragon Emperor had enough strength, it would be even more difficult for him to make a comeback.
"Damn it, how could they be so coincidental? Could it be that the news of our robbery was leaked? That can't be! We are all at sea. Even if there is a spy, there is no way they can send the news to the Black Dragon! It's most likely a blind cat running into a dead mouse. How unlucky. "
The Black Panther said angrily.
"My king, now is not the time to be angry. We still have to decide how to deal with the current situation as soon as possible. We have to make a prompt decision to lose the treasures of two merchant ships. Otherwise, even if the Black Dragon Emperor destroys us, we will have nowhere to go."
One of his confidants hurriedly advised.
The Black Panther roared angrily, "Okay, I understand. Sigh! I actually gave the Black Dragon Emperor a wedding dress. This is so infuriating. "
Just as the Black Panther was planning to give the treasures of the two merchant ships to the Black Dragon, Ang Lee and his subordinates were already prepared to attack. No matter what the pirates thought, Ang Lee planned to first eliminate a group of pirates, then force more pirates to surrender. This would completely eliminate the Black Panther's group of pirates.
"Assistant Minister Li, the situation doesn't seem right! Why are these pirates standing on the deck? They don't seem to be preparing for battle at all. Could it be that they are preparing to surrender? "
Chen Long looked at the pirate ships in the distance and said.
Ang Lee also noticed this phenomenon. All the pirates were standing on the deck and looking into the distance. They didn't seem to be preparing for battle at all. He didn't know why they were like this. Could it be that they couldn't see that the soldiers were already preparing for battle?
"Assistant Minister Li, the pirates are standing on the deck. If we attack now, we can kill more than half of the pirates. Should we attack according to the original plan?"
Chen Long asked.
Ang Lee thought for a moment and said, "Forget it. Since the pirates don't want to make a big fuss, we don't have to kill them. When they get close, we just need to quickly control them. The main force of the pirates is on the two armed clippers. As long as we control the pirates on these two armed clippers, the pirates on the other ships are nothing to be afraid of. Later, four ships will control the two armed clippers of the Black Panther. The remaining two ships will control the pirates on the other ships. If the pirates dare to resist, kill them without mercy."
"Yes, I'll go prepare."
Chen Long said.
Soon, Ang Lee's fleet was getting closer and closer to the pirate fleet. When they were close enough, the pirates could already see the faces and clothes of Ang Lee and the others. Suddenly, they were shocked and could no longer be shocked. They had always thought that they were facing the pirates under the Black Dragon. However, the people on the other side were not pirates under the Black Dragon, but soldiers. How could they not be frightened?
"My King, soldiers, it seems that the opposite side is soldiers. With so many soldiers, we are finished."
One of Hei Bao's trusted subordinates said fearfully.
