Chapter 151
The conscience of heaven and earth, such a thing as the relatives hate their enemies and are happy, the generals of the Navy Town must never dare to do.
Although Xiao Wu and Xu Bin and others are indeed jealous of the wealth of the four seas business companies.
But at present, the expenses of several towns of the Navy basically depend on the Ming court's expenses, and more than half of the silver military pay is provided by the taxes paid by the Sihai Commercial Bank.
If the navy watches pirates rob the merchant ships of the four seas and affects the development of the chamber of commerce, it will be a slander.
After all, the looting of the merchant fleet of the Sihai Commercial Bank also affected the Navy's several towns. Because of the unfavorable escort of the Navy's several towns, Lord Liu Yu also deducted the silver military pay that should have been given to the Navy's three towns next month. As a result, the Navy's town now had to reduce the salaries of officers and soldiers, which caused the soldiers to scold them and complain.
Xu Bin has no good idea about this.
The main reason is that the Babuyan Strait is too big, and the Ming army in the archipelago only occupies most of the islands. Many islands in the north are still entrenched in a large number of pirates. Who would have thought that scattered pirates would dare to go to the back of the Ming army to fight guerrillas?
The pirates were taken into the camp by the Ming army, and Xu Bin was about to walk forward and ask carefully.
"Sir Xu Bin, Lord Xiao is welcome." A vice-sponsor runs out of the camp and speaks after seeing Xu Bin.
When Xu Bin heard that Xiao Wu was about to see him, he didn't care about interrogating the pirates.
Of course, those pirates captured by the Ming army were just small minions, and I guess they couldn't ask anything.
"Sir," Xu Bin walked into the camp and saw Xiao Wu facing away from him, looking at the chart with concentration.
"Ah, Xu Bin, you are here." Xiao Wu nodded and did not turn around.
"Just just received the news, Duke Li has taken down thirteen large islands in the northern coast of Luzon." Xiao Wu took out a letter and handed it to Xu Bin.
"Did the letter be sent by the Fubo Town fleet?" Xu Bin asked tentatively.
Xiao Wu's face changed, and then he smiled bitterly, "The one sent from Lavag is also written by King Lu on it. We want us to join Fubo Town to wipe out the pirates in the north."
"So that's it." Xu Bin was a little disappointed.
It must have been that after Li Tuan took over the Badan Islands, he informed the merchant fleet of the Sihai Commercial Bank of China, and then the merchant fleet returned to Lavague to inform the Ming court, and the Ming court then told Xiao Wu on Dayu Island.
"This Duke Li was originally a veteran of the Navy Town. The Badan Islands are located north of the Dayu Islands, and the news should also be sent to Dayu Island and sent back to Rawag." Xu Bin was a little angry, quite dissatisfied with Duke Li's actions.
"The Lord treats him well. He was seriously injured by the Tartars in the battle of Penghu. If the Lord had not insisted on bringing him into the lucky boat and heading south to Luzon, he would have been a dry bone in the tomb."
"Forget it." Xiao Wu waved his hand and signaled that Xu Bin didn't need to mention it anymore.
"The remnants of the Black Flag Gang fought guerrillas behind us and robbed many ships from the Sihai Commercial Bank. I heard that Liu Yu and his son were going to deduct military pay from our Navy's several towns." Xiao Wu asked.
"Sir, six merchant ships in Sihai Commercial Bank have been robbed during this period. Lord Liu Yu believes that it was caused by the unfavorable escort of the Navy Town, so he decided to deduct half of the military pay Sihai gave to the Navy Town next month." Xu Bin smiled bitterly.
"Liu Yu, you bully me too much." Xiao Wu's forehead bulged and his chest was fluttering violently.
"His uncle is just a co-leader in my Navy Town. He really dares to treat me like this."
Liu Quan and Li Duke were both veterans of the Navy, but after heading south to Luzon, they all entered the sea like dragons and left Xiao Wu.
Not to mention Li Du, who commanded the navy in the towns, even his personal soldiers, Liu Quan, was already the general of Weigan at this time, responsible for border defense affairs in the area of Weigan Mingcheng, and commanded the troops of several towns, including the Ming army Shengfan, to resist the Folang Jiren.
It seems that these people who were once subordinates of his deputy generals all made great achievements and rose to prominence because of their trip to Luzon. However, how could Xiao Wu not be angry when he treated himself like this?
"Sir, why don't you write a letter to Lord Liu Quan of Weigan, now he is Weigan, the general of Mingcheng, and Uncle Liu Yu, and he may convince Liu Yu if he comes forward."
As Xu Bin spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller. When would he surrender like a boy in his early twenties?
At the beginning, that man was just an insignificant sailor.
After taking advantage of his uncle's glory, he barely became familiar with him. Why did he climb over to his head today? Even the Navy Town had to rely on him to live.
"Forget it, forgot." Xiao Wu suppressed his anger and finally had to sigh helplessly.
"I wrote a letter to Liu Quan. For the sake of the veteran general of the Navy Town, I was not afraid of him, but for the foundation of the Luzon Ming court."
The Ming generals present breathed a sigh of relief at this time. Just now, they didn't dare to breathe, for fear of implicating them.
Now that Xiao Wu has surrendered, everything will be solved naturally. The officers and soldiers of the Navy Town no longer have to block the camp in front of the camp every day, and the chief and deputy assistant commanders under their command can continue to deduct more silver.
Thinking of this, these generals all danced again, and looked at Xu Bin next to him and felt very unhappy.
"Sir, why are you asking me to come?" Xu Bin suddenly remembered that Xiao Wu asked him and asked hurriedly.
"Oh, by the way." Xiao Wu only remembered another thing at this time.
"Let him in."
Two Ming soldiers walked in with a shabby man.
Xu Bin was in a hurry when he came, but he didn't pay attention to the fact that he was alone outside the camp.
"This person is called the Ghost Scout, and Muhanweili sent him to ask for peace." Xiao Wu said coldly.
"Ghost Scout?" Xu Bin frowned. He seemed to remember this person, a big and small leader in the Black Flag Gang.
"Sir, now the Black Flag Gang is the mastermind Muhanvilli. Lord Muhanvilli wants to make peace with Lord Xiao." The ghost scout also recognized Xu Bin and quickly said what he had said before.
"Since I have not been to the Ming court to meet King Lu, I have come to Dayu Island to do something." Xu Bin shouted loudly.
"The villain originally wanted to see Lord Xiao, and then go to Lavag to worship King Lu." The ghost scout was also smart and smiled sly.
"It seems that the old fox, Muhanweili, can't sit still." Xiao Wu laughed.
"Then he won't let him surrender and go to Dayu Island to surrender." Xiao Wu stopped laughing and said with a cold face.
The ghost scout just smiled embarrassedly and patroled the surroundings.
"Reply to the words of the great master, Lord Muhanweili was afraid of the Ming Navy, so he did not dare to be enemies with the heavenly soldiers and generals under his command for several months. Now the Black Flag Gang only has several islands, and the servants are no match for the king's army. Lord Muhanweili also wanted to come to Dayu Island to surrender, but..."
"But what..." Xu Bin said coldly. He always felt that the ghost scout in front of him was not kind.
"Mr. Muhanvilli said that if you come to Dayu Island and please surrender, two bloody heads will be hung on the Rawag Pier next month." The ghost scout said softly.
"Two heads, why can't Muhanweili stay with Li Tianyou's head?" Xiao Wu sneered.
"Sir, what he is talking about is not Li Tianyou's head." Xu Bin's face turned gloomy.
