A Clash of Gods - Chapter 985

[Chapter 975]

The Tengwu suddenly caught fire, and the fleet suddenly became agitated. Jiang Yishui’s face was ugly. At this time, he could no longer care about the gentleness, and said angrily: “What the hell is going on? Why did it catch fire?”

Someone on the side said: “Third Master, there has not been a banner sent over there, but someone must have been sent over to report. Listening to the voice over there, you should also be fighting the fire at this time. (The uc book alliance will update the fastest)”

Sure enough, after a while, a small boat was already approaching the side of the boat. After boarding the boat, the man came over in a hurry, and fell to the ground with a look of fear: “Little Xiao has seen the third master!”

“Wang Fu, why did your ship catch fire?” Jiang Yishui’s face was extremely ugly, “What’s the situation now?”

Qi Ning knew that this Wang Fu should be the captain of the Tengwu, but Wang Fu’s face was pale, and he said: “Third Master, the matter is clear, there are a few helmsmen in the bilge tonight learning from Nanyang people to eat barbecue, I drank a few more glasses, but didn’t turn off the fire, and then the fire spread, and it was too late to find out. Anyway, two people rushed out alive from the inside, and the lives of several others were unknown. Now they are fighting the fire, and the fire has not spread. ”

“Barbecue?” Jiang Yishui said angrily, “Don’t you know the rules on the boat? They are so bold.”

“Seeing that they were about to get home, these people relaxed, maybe they were tired on the way, and everyone went to bed early. Although they kept guards, they forgot to go to the bilge to take a look. Those helmsmen were confused and committed If the rules are violated, it will lead to a big disaster!” Wang Fu raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead: “The little one must be punished heavily.”

Jiang Yishui was furious. He rushed up and kicked Wang Fu in the face. Wang Fu screamed and was kicked to the ground. Jiang Yishui scolded angrily: “Severe punishment? But it was completely destroyed. We have only a few ships that can travel far to the South China Sea. If there is one less ship, do you know how much money will be lost? I have always warned you that as long as you don’t go ashore one day, you must not be careless every day. Be careful, I will give you the Tengwuhao because you are mature and prudent, but you have caused me such a big disaster!”

“It’s a little confused, please forgive me!” Wang Fu knelt on the ground, letting blood flow out of his mouth.

“I won’t punish you, you know, the caravan is not just the business of our Jiang family, there are many aristocratic families in the East China Sea involved.” Jiang Yishui sneered: “How much loss this time, look back and think carefully, and when you go back, let those The owners decide how to punish you.”

Shen Liangqiu finally said: “Shen Sanshao, the most urgent task is not to pursue the responsibility, but to solve the trouble first. Whether it is safe on the Tengwu No. 1 must not let people die on it.”

Jiang Yishui hurriedly said: “General Shen’s words are very true.” He asked Wang Fu, “How is Tengwuhao now, and how much is the loss?”

“Back to the third master, there is not much damage to the cargo, it’s just that the deck was burnt and water entered it. We are now stepping up the treatment.” Wang Fu said, “Small and small!” He hesitated and dared not speak.

Jiang Yishui said angrily, “What’s the matter, tell me quickly, don’t hesitate.”

“I thought it was temporarily inconvenient for the Tengwu to continue sailing.” Wang Fudao said, “We should step up repairs now. If we hurry up, we should be able to repair it within a day. If we can barely sail, I’m afraid!”

Jiang Yishui frowned, “You mean the Tengwu can’t continue sailing?”

“It’s barely feasible, but the loss may be even greater.” Wang Fu bit the bullet and said, “So the little one suggested to take a day off.”

Jiang Yishui said with a sneer: “If you say stop for one day, then stop for one day? For trade, there are time limits, and many goods cannot be on board for too long. They must be landed as soon as possible and properly handled.” He glanced at it, thought for a moment, and then said: “Well, the caravan will continue to move forward. Since you can’t leave the Tengwuhao, you can stay for a day. After repairing it, quickly follow.”

“But if only the Tengwu remains, will there be pirate attacks?” Wang Fu worried.

(fastest update)

Jiang Yishui scolded: “If you really want to be robbed by the pirates, that’s what you deserve.” Knowing that he was angry,

Added a sentence: “With the banner of our Jiang family caravan, those bastards dare not mess around.”

Qi Ning suddenly smiled and said, “Third Master, if a group of hungry wolves find a rabbit right next to their mouths, do you think they would still care who raised the rabbit?”

Shen Liangqiu also nodded and said, “Indeed. Although it is only a day away from the coast, the pirates may not be able to wander over. When they see a merchant ship here alone, they will definitely take action.”

“This!” Jiang Yishui pondered for a moment before saying, “Heifeng will also stay as an escort to keep some more people for you. After you are repaired, set off immediately without delay.”

Wang Fu hurriedly said: “Little thanks to the third master.” He didn’t dare to stay here any longer, so he respectfully retired, Jiang Yishui mumbled a few words, and then smiled: “General Shen, Ning Xiaoxiong, it’s nothing major, don’t be broken by this. Things disturbed the interest, let’s continue drinking.”

Qi Ning shook his head and smiled and said, “The three young masters have already received the hospitality of today. It’s already very late, and I’m a little tired. Let’s leave today. If there is a chance in the future, let’s meet again.” General, what do you mean?”

“Yes, it’s getting late, so I won’t bother you any more.” Shen Liangqiu said succinctly and said goodbye.

When the Tengwu was on fire, Jiang Yishui was not in a good mood, and he did not hold back. He sent the two off the ship. Qi Ning and the two returned by boat. Passing by the Tengwu, they saw that the situation on the Tengwu had stabilized. Down, the Tengwu and the cargo ship behind him had the deepest draught among the many ships in the fleet, and naturally had the most cargo. After the fire, perhaps because seawater entered the bottom of the ship, the draught became deeper at this time.

After Qi Ning and the two returned to the ship, the merchant fleet did not stop and continued to sail. , follow the main ship and continue onwards.

Qi Ning stood on the side of the boat, watching the two boats stay where they were, with deep eyes.

The next itinerary was still very smooth. At dusk the next day, it was close to the coastline. Jiang Yishui’s merchant fleet could not dock at the pier of the Donghai Navy, and the pier of its own merchant fleet, the two teams were separated.

This time, the shark catching plan was very secretive, and not many people in the East Sea Navy knew about it. The soldiers only thought that the three groups of people were really patrolling the sea. The boat docked at the pier, and there was not much disturbance. This time, only two corpses were brought back. Shen Liangqiu instructed Tang Hui to contact the Governor’s Mansion and send the body of Dr. Hu to the Governor’s Mansion overnight. To that side, the search for Doctor Hu’s family to return the corpse naturally falls on the local government.

As for the corpse of the black tiger shark, Zhu Shuo sent someone to guard it.

This action can be said to be unexpectedly smooth. Not only did they not encounter the Shanghai bandits, but they also got the head of the black tiger shark extremely smoothly.

“Master Marquis, these few days have been exhausting, but luckily the operation went smoothly and did not live up to Master Hou’s expectations.” Shen Liangqiu let out a sigh of relief: “It’s getting late, Master Hou will escort you back to the city after dinner.”

Qi Ning hadn’t spoken yet, but saw a navy general hurried over, and saw Shen Liangqiu and Qi Ning together, bowing their hands, but he was hesitant to say anything, but Qi Ning looked at his face and knew that there must be an urgent matter .

Shen Liangqiu has already said in a deep voice: “There is something but it’s okay to talk about it.”

The general hesitated for a moment, and finally said, “General, General Xin is here!”

“General Xin?” Shen Liangqiu didn’t react for a while, “Which one is Xin?” But he didn’t say anything, his face changed slightly, Qi Ning was a little strange when he saw this, the general had already said: “General Xin Knowing that the general is back, he is waiting in the tent, saying that if the general has time, he would like to meet with you.”

Shen Liangqiu seemed to be trying his best to control his emotions, nodded slightly, Qi Ning couldn’t help but ask: “General Shen, who is this General Xin?” He knew that after Tantai Zhilin passed away, the highest general of the East China Sea Navy It was Shen Liangqiu. Now this sudden appearance of General Xin was actually waiting for Shen Liangqiu to see him in the tent. UU reading www.sonicmtl.com is not a small one. If it was Shen Liangqiu’s subordinate, he would never have been so daring.

“Marquis, General Xin was the lieutenant by the old marquis back then.” Shen Liangqiu looked solemn: “When the old marquis left the navy, he handed over the navy to the governor, and General Xin also followed the old marquis back to Beijing, and he has been Serving by the old man’s side.”

“Oh?” Qi Ning was stunned: “So, this General Xin is a veteran of the East Sea Division?”

Shen Liangqiu nodded and said, “General Xin is very talented. He was personally promoted by the old marquis. He was loyal to the old marquis. When the old marquis returned to Beijing, General Xin took the initiative to follow him back to Beijing to serve the left and right sides, and the old marquis also agreed. It’s been many years since he left the army, and he never came back. I can’t think of it!”

“Maybe the old marquis has been waiting for the news of the great governor, but there is no result. The old marquis was anxious, so he sent General Xin to come to inquire.” Qi Ning thought thoughtfully and asked, “Yes, Does this General Xin still serve as a general?”

“General Xin has the title of General Jianwei of the fourth rank.” Shen Liangqiu said: “He is low-key, rarely interacts with people, and always follows the old marquis. Not many people in the capital know about General Xin.”

Qi Ning thought that this was true. He had been in the capital for a long time, and he had seen all the famous people. Even if he had not seen it, he had heard of some famous people, but this General Xin himself had never heard of it. As I said before, he is naturally a very low-key person, but thinking about the powerful people in the world like Tantai Huang, Hou Jindao, is now extremely low-key in Chu, and even the imperial court sometimes forgets the existence of Hou Jindao, as Jin Daohou. It is not uncommon for the generals around Daohou to be unknown.

“By the way, what is the name of this General Xin?”

“Xinci!” Shen Liangqiu said: “The hard work is the reward!”
