Witch Wind

Chapter 110 Zhao Song Zhu Ming
The seventh day since Xing Tianli entered the jungle.

Black Pearl Harbor, Ingish Commercial Office.

Ever since Xing Tianli took over Black Pearl Harbor, the Kingdom of England's commercial office in Black Borneo moved here from Jinshan Town, and directly occupied the best, most spacious and solid nine-story reinforced concrete building in Black Pearl Harbor!

Tom and Jerry, as well as several officials from the Commercial Department, were sitting around a round table in the lobby on the first floor, drinking cold beer and playing the British-specific card game of "Officials, Robbers and Merchants".

The floor-to-ceiling windows of the hall were open. Through the huge windows, they could clearly see the blue sea not far away and the ships of all sizes coming in and out of the port.

This kind of game is very interesting. In each game, there are a number of officials, a number of bandits, and a number of merchants. The officials join forces to squeeze all the wealth of the bandits and merchants. The bandits are lone rangers who have to avoid the oppression of officials and plunder merchants, while the merchants must stick together to resist the bullying of officials and bandits.

If an official loses a certain number of flower cards, the round will be cleared immediately.

After losing a certain number of flower cards, the businessman can transform into a robber and continue the game.

Robbers can be transformed into officials by paying a certain amount of flower cards to the officials.

In short, this is a card game with many changes. Once you start playing it, it is enough to make people forget about food and sleep, and the winnings and losses can be huge.

Tom calmly threw a large gold coin onto the table to raise the stakes, picked up the huge beer glass, and took a sip. "So, Mr. Johnson and Mr. William, they both have a batch of unplanned goods to transport. But the port's additional shipping capacity is limited. I think Mr. Johnson is more sincere."

An official from the Commercial Department threw out two cards to take the bet that Tom had added. He said in a deep voice, "Well, let's make it like this. This month, the three extra cargo ship capacity will be given to Mr. Johnson. Mr. William really needs to learn to be more generous. He is so petty that he can't make any friends!"

Jerry nodded in agreement and also threw a large gold coin onto the table. "Yeah, he's too stingy. He's destined to never make any real friends. Uh, then, what about the territorial dispute between Mr. Smith and his neighbor?"

At the round table, several people looked at each other and showed subtle expressions at the same time.

"When Mr. Li Li first came, Mr. Smith expressed his most sincere support for our work. So, there is no doubt that Mr. Smith is the one who is right. That 20,000 acres of fertile land naturally belongs to Mr. Smith." An official responsible for mediating disputes among British merchants expressed his attitude righteously.

"Very good. Mr. Smith will host a banquet at the Pink Panther Club tonight. There are a few new girls from the Near East prairie there. They have blonde hair, blue eyes, white skin, and are extremely enthusiastic." Tom smiled brightly. "Mr. Smith knows that he obtained the land legally and legitimately, so he will definitely show his appreciation."

Everyone smiled happily, picked up their wine glasses and took a big gulp.

Travel thousands of miles to become an official just to make money.

In a hellhole place like Black Borneo, where ten mosquitoes can carry a person to fly, do you really think they came here from afar for the "interests of the empire" or for some bullshit "glory of the Queen"?

Bah, no matter how great the interests of the empire are, can it put one more gold coin in their pockets?

Bah, no matter how glorious the Queen is, her little princesses will never marry them!

Therefore, isn't it only natural to reasonably gain some benefits for yourself and your colleagues within the power of the Business Office?
An official put down his glass and tapped the table lightly: "Remember, Counselor Li Li is our boss."

Tom nodded seriously: "Of course, no one will forget this. He opened a bank account at the Commerce Department, and the amount on the account increases every day, not a single silver coin is missing!"

Everyone smiled brightly.

They raised their glasses once again, warmly wishing Xing Tianli good health and a long life - of course they had all received the news that the terrifying and powerful Xing Tianli, who was as terrifying as a ghost, had already led his men to capture the thirteen largest port cities in Black Borneo.

Those Dongyun dwarfs, no matter their family background or official position, all knelt on the ground and worshipped Xing Tianli as their master!

"I really want to see the expressions of the Excellencies in the Embassy in the East Country and the Consulate General in Pinghai City after they know the great achievements of Mr. Li Li." Tom smiled brightly: "We took Black Borneo with almost no losses. It's incredible!"

An official from the Commerce Department muttered in a low voice: "If we can obtain that kind of power, I would even be willing to sacrifice my soul..."

Everyone's eyes were a little confused.

They all picked up their glasses, gulped down beer, and absentmindedly threw cards onto the table.

A good game of cards became messy because of this sentence, and everyone was a little dazed.

"Boom, boom, boom!"
A low sound of artillery fire was heard, and a group of people dropped the cards in their hands, rushed to the terrace outside, leaned on the railing, and looked towards the guard gun position under the lighthouse not far away.

A messenger ran towards this side, screaming as he ran: "On the sea, two Idoli fast frigates are chasing a wooden sailing ship!"

Near the port, figures wearing heavy armor have appeared, and several huge jungle lions are wandering back and forth on the dock, constantly making low roars.

Seeing those figures, Tom, Jerry and others immediately felt relieved.

Amid the sound of alarm bells, a dozen high-speed patrol boats that were originally cruising slowly outside the port sped up, gathering together like a group of piranhas that smelled blood. These high-speed boats, with a displacement of only 300 to 500 tons, gathered together, drew a huge arc on the sea, and headed straight for the vaguely visible ship in the distance.

In the port, smoke billowed from the chimneys of several large frigates, and with a low roar, these frigates slowly left their gun positions. On the deck, a large group of Dongyun sailors jumped back and forth like a group of ground mice. Amid the roars of the officers, the sailors quickly raised the Dongyun eight-headed demon dragon stepping on the sea and swallowing the sun flag.

Inside Black Pearl Harbor, the atmosphere became slightly tense, and then continued to relax.

The news has spread that there are only two Easyli ships with a displacement of two to three thousand tons on the sea. These things are not enough to face the Black Pearl Harbor with hundreds of thousands of garrisons and hundreds of large-caliber coastal defense guns.

Tom even had the mood to joke: "I hope those Idoli women can attack us like men. Ha, I hope they won't just turn off their guns and surrender as soon as we fire our cannons!"

All the Yingji officials laughed.

Among the hundred countries in the far west, the Kingdom of Yidoli is a rare gem among the great powers. They clearly have extremely strong national strength, vast territory, and a large population. Their military technology is also among the best among the hundred countries in the far west!
But since ancient times, the Kingdom of Yidoli has never won any decent victory!

Looking through the history books of the Kingdom of Idoli, the final result of their foreign wars was always "50-50". They fought "50-50" countless times, whether facing powerful countries like Yingjishi and Falushi, or some "natives" who were not up to the standard, they were basically "50-50"!
Therefore, Yidoli has the most outstanding diplomats among the hundreds of powerful countries in the Far West. Their vast tracts of land and their current large number of colonies were all negotiated through the mouths of their diplomats using various means!
But they are really not good at fighting.

Jerry suddenly asked a question that made everyone silent: "What did the messenger just say? Two high-speed frigates are chasing a wooden sailing ship? Gentlemen, is my ear broken or my brain broken? Two high-speed frigates, chasing a wooden sailing ship?"

Everyone widened their eyes and looked in horror at the lighthouse not far away, looking at the several lookouts who were busy working on the lighthouse.

They sent out a messenger to find out the news.

Then, very certain news came back - the lookouts had clearly identified the models of the two Idoli high-speed frigates on the sea through the telescope. They were the new frigates of the 'Count of Porto class' that had just been launched by the Idoli Kingdom three years ago. They were cutting-edge ships with a maximum cruising speed of 30 knots.

And what they were chasing was indeed a wooden sailboat that was no more than ten feet long and completely white!

"Merciful Virgin Mary!" Tom, Jerry and a group of officials from the Commerce Department exclaimed in unison.

This is completely impossible!

Wooden sailboat?
A simple wooden sailing ship, when the wind is favorable, can run at a speed of 15 knots, which is already amazing. In the maritime history of the Far West, wooden sailing ships with such speeds have left a great reputation in the history of navigation. They are basically the ships of big pirate leaders or big smugglers!

In any case, the difference between the maximum speed of fifteen knots and the cruising speed of thirty knots is too big.

How did this wooden sailboat escape all the way here?

May the Virgin Mary bless you?
On the sea, on the wooden sailboat that the lookouts mentioned, Zhao Qingqian, who was wearing a Western-style tuxedo, with his long hair tied into a big ponytail at the back of his head, and a pair of sunglasses on his nose, was waving his fists in anger at the two frigates three miles behind him.

"You barbarian slave, just wait and see!" Zhao Qingqi was so angry that her face turned blue. She gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, took out a talisman carved from a piece of jade from her sleeve. It was faintly glowing and had wisps of wind patterns carved on it. She slammed it hard on the deck of the sailboat.

The jade talisman exploded into pieces, and the powerful magic power bestowed by the immortal ancestor of the Zhao Song royal family was injected into the sailboat. On the dazzlingly white, warm and moist hull like a beautiful jade, wisps of green wind patterns flashed by.

A strong gale suddenly arose around the wooden sailboat.

The wind circle spread over a radius of one hundred feet. The lonely mast of this small wooden sailboat, which was about ten feet long, was pure white, with a dragon embroidered in the middle with silver silk thread. The sailboat suddenly inflated, accelerated, and left a turbulent wake on the sea, speeding towards the vaguely visible Black Pearl Harbor ahead.

In the rear, two Yiduoli high-speed frigates also began to accelerate. From three miles away, Zhao Qingqi could hear the loud "boom" of the high-pressure boilers in the ships.

On the main turrets in front of the two frigates, the four main turrets and eight five-inch caliber main guns roared in unison.

The shells whistled and landed in front of the wooden sailboat, creating huge waves several feet high.

The waves rolled and the wooden sailboat passed through at high speed. The invisible wind entangled the sailboat and forcibly flattened the rippled sea surface. The wooden sailboat was not affected by the waves at all and sped forward as if it were walking on flat ground.

More than a dozen high-speed patrol boats came in aggressively, brushing past the wooden sailboats and heading straight for the two Yiduoli warships behind them. Before the two Yiduoli frigates could react, these high-speed patrol boats had already approached the two frigates within two miles.

More than thirty three-inch guns and an equal number of large-caliber machine guns roared together, and the dense rain of bullets focused on a frigate. The sea was calm, the shooting conditions were excellent, the number of patrol boats was sufficient, and the density of the rain of bullets fired by the artillery and machine guns was sufficient. Dense flames immediately exploded near the main turret of the frigate that was targeted.

With the sound of "ding-dong-dong", dense bullets swept across the frigate's board like flaming sickles.

On the deck, dozens of Idoli sailors were blown to pieces by large-caliber bullets without a sound.

Amid the splattering blood mist, as luck would have it, the frigate's two main guns fired simultaneously. Two three-inch gun shells hit the muzzle and collided with the two main gun shells that had just been fired.

This is a one in a million chance.

But this unfortunate Yidoli frigate happened to run into this fatal possibility.

With a loud bang, the muzzle of the main gun exploded, and the flames poured down the barrel into the turret, and then along the loader, rushed fiercely into the huge ammunition compartment below. Hundreds of five-inch caliber naval gun shells were directly detonated, and with a loud bang that shook the earth, the bow of the frigate was directly blown off.

Black Pearl Harbor, everyone who witnessed this scene cheered.

Next, the Dongyun sailors on a dozen high-speed patrol boats cheered like a group of bloodthirsty hungry wolves. They controlled the patrol boats to surround the remaining frigate in an arc, and dense rain of bullets whistled down continuously.

After just two rounds of bombardment, all the flags on the Idoli frigate fell down, and a snow-white flag quickly rose. Then, the frigate's boilers were shut down, the propellers stopped turning, and the captain, dressed in formal attire, stood at the bow holding a sword, ready for the surrender ceremony.

The other Italian officers on the ship appeared on the bridge, holding red wine glasses, as if it was none of their business. The handsome Italian naval officers in neat uniforms drank red wine and pointed at the high-speed patrol boats on the sea, giving off a relaxed feeling as if they were on an outing.

This strange scene made more than a dozen Dongyun patrol boats go crazy.

How is this going?

Hey, you have a new frigate with a displacement larger than all these patrol boats combined, and you're just going to surrender without firing a single shot?

Although your companions were blown up just now, it was just a coincidence and they were just unlucky.

You guys, don't you struggle?
You guys, won't you resist?
As sailors, don't you care about your honor at all?

On the wooden sailboat, Zhao Qingqi let out a long breath, took off his sunglasses, and glared at the frigate that raised the white flag. Inside the cabin, with the sound of "hehe suosu", a maid who was also dressed as a man, supported a maid with a pale face, wearing only a white men's shirt, and faint blood on her left shoulder and right chest, and walked out slowly step by step.

"Your Highness!" The two maids bowed to Zhao Qingxuan.

Zhao Qingxuan nodded, glanced at the injured maid, and said in a deep voice: "Go back to the cabin. You are injured. What will happen if you are hit by the sea breeze? I am good at fighting and killing, but I am not good at healing and saving lives. You have saved your life with great difficulty, so don't lose it here again by mistake."

Pointing at the two maids angrily, Zhao Qingqian looked back in the direction of Black Pearl Harbor: "Isn't this the wrong place? This is Black Pearl Harbor? Haha, it's really embarrassing that I have become a stray dog, traveling thousands of miles to seek refuge with that guy Li Li!"

Zhao Qingqi stamped his feet fiercely, gritted his teeth and snorted coldly: "It is true, if the tube is split and the vegetables are poured, the world will be a good place. In this world, are there any good people with the surname Cai or Tong?"

"Tong Guan, you old thief, Cai Jing, you old dog, wait and see! I will slowly settle this account with you!"

Zhao Qingqi cursed angrily, but his eyes were blank.

The two names she mentioned had extremely bad reputations in history, but within their Zhao Song Dynasty, they were first-class "veteran heroes" who held real power... ahem.

The wooden sailing ship moved slowly forward, and several large frigates rushed out of Black Pearl Harbor and passed by the wooden sailing ship at high speed.

Two pilot boats and two patrol boats came over, front and back, left and right, surrounding the slowed wooden sailboat in the middle. Several Dongyun officers stood on the patrol boats, looking Zhao Qingqi up and down with subtle eyes.

A Dongyun sailor pointed and said, "Woman!"

"Oh, a woman this tall is like a monster!"

"That's right. Even the best warriors in the army can't subdue such a 'burly' monster girl, right?"

"Shh, shut up. Look at her clothes. She must be a rich lady. If you don't want to die, shut up!"

Zhao Qingqi had sharp ears. When she heard what these Dongyun sailors said, she was so angry that her face turned black. What? My lady is so tall and beautiful, and you short slaves from the archipelago are talking about a monster girl who is as big and strong as a monster?
This palace...Monster girl?
Zhao Qingxuan was so angry that the Three Corpse Gods jumped up and down. She now had the urge to mobilize a million troops, sweep across Dongyun, and reduce the average height of these Dongyun Island slaves by half a foot!

"I'm looking for Li Li!" Zhao Qingqi finally remembered Xing Tianli. She said in a deep voice, "Li Li, Li Li, the commercial counselor of the Kingdom of Yingjishi stationed in Black Borneo, is this guy still alive? Let him get out and welcome the emperor!"

'Gudong'!
Zhao Qingxuan and the two maids stared in amazement as all the Dongyun officers and soldiers on the four small boats knelt down in an orderly manner, prostrating themselves before them and paying homage!
jungle.

Big eagles were circling in the sky and giant beasts were roaring in the jungle. Giant crocodiles, giant pythons, jungle lions, jungle leopards, and mountain gorillas, which were originally hunting each other, as well as some strange and bizarre beasts unique to Black Borneo, were wandering back and forth in groups of three or five on both sides of the huge team.

More than a million young and strong indigenous people were lined up in dense teams, one following the other, in an extremely orderly manner, moving quickly through the jungle like a colony of marching ants.

To outsiders, the jungle was like hell, but to these young and strong natives, it was simply their own backyard. They walked briskly, and no matter how rugged and complex the terrain was, no matter how many rocks, fallen tree stumps, dense vines, or stagnant wetlands, they could not stop them.

Originally in the jungle, there were some ferocious beasts that were enough to pose a fatal threat to these natives.

However, under the suppression of thousands of ferocious beasts that were too big and had auras several times or even dozens of times stronger than their own kind, all the beasts fled wherever the huge team passed. Those that ran a little slower became the team's extra meal.

In the low sky, on the floating clouds, Xing Tianli held the innate magic item obtained by Sophie's sacrifice, and spit out bronze witch flames from his mouth, burning and refining it bit by bit. Strands of primordial Qi continued to transform into thumb-sized, green-colored, mysterious runes that looked like gemstones, and with a low roar, they were constantly imprinted into the suspended Tongtian Miaozhu.

In the Lingtai Purple Mansion, the old and broken bronze sword vibrated slightly, and large amounts of light and shadow gushed out, constantly merging into Xingtianli's soul.

'Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree', 'Bodhi Spirit Staff', 'Six Pure Bamboos', 'Pure Willow Branches'... In the light and shadow, the phantoms of many innate wonderful objects that Xing Tianli had only heard of in myths and legends in his previous life and that were controlled by many sacred immortals and Buddhas, continued to merge into Xing Tianli's soul. Countless mysterious runes surged in Xing Tianli's soul, and his soul seemed to have turned into a dazzling firework, "puff puff puff" constantly splashing endless flames around.

"What is your origin, old man?"

Xing Tianli smiled bitterly, his heart heavy, yet filled with ecstasy as if 'a piece of golden pie had fallen from the sky'!

In the phantoms of these innate wonderful objects, those endless runes are the 'essence' of these innate objects!
To explain it using the 'scientific theory' of the previous Earth - the runes in these phantoms are the 'DNA' of these legendary innate treasures, and are their 'genetic codes'!
As long as Xing Tianli's cultivation is sufficient, and he can condense enough runes, and inject them into something that can support these 'essences' and these 'DNA' 'embryos' in a specific order, he will be able to recast these innate treasures!
The Magic Bamboo of Tongtian was taught by the Ancient Bronze Sword. It was an 'excellent embryo' with an infinite capacity, enough to carry all these 'innate treasures' - Xing Tianli could not imagine at all which incredible and powerful person had refined and figured out such magical powers and means!

I just planted bamboo shoots in the bamboo garden of Xiaolongqiu Town for ten years, consuming some of the most basic hardware elites, a little bit of my own life essence, and some 'wood vitality' provided by acquired ordinary bamboo. How could I have produced such an incredible thing!

After all, I am not qualified and I don't have the ability to explore the ins and outs of this matter, right?

Xing Tianli's soul was crying out loudly, but the ancient bronze sword hanging high on the Lingtai Zifu remained silent.

Because of the countless runes that kept splashing out of his soul, the boundless chaos around his spiritual palace was shaking, and more than a hundred thousand pitch-black tentacles condensed, whistling towards his soul with a suffocating breath that could destroy everything.

While transmitting infinite mysteries to Xing Tianli, the ancient bronze sword continued to vibrate. Sharp and dazzling sword lights swept across, protecting his spiritual palace and cutting off large swathes of black tentacles like cutting leeks.

Inside the body, nine small bronze tripods were vibrating.

The bronze transparent witch flame was burning crazily, and the black tentacles were swallowed by the small cauldrons one by one. After being melted by the witch flame, they turned into the essence of the rolling soul. Ninety percent was swallowed by the nine small cauldrons, and one tenth was fed back to the soul in the purple palace of the spirit platform!
The size of the nine small tripods is constantly increasing.

The realm of the soul in Lingtai Zifu is constantly improving, and the boundless chaos that is madly compressing around it makes his soul constantly stronger, but its size has hardly improved at all.

As a result, Xing Tianli's soul was constantly collapsing and condensing.

The total amount of his soul increased hundreds of times. This amount of soul collapsed into a ball. In the core of the highly condensed soul, there was already a faint clear and lively light with a faint golden glow that kept flashing.

Phantoms continued to merge into the soul, and countless runes shuttled frantically within the soul.

These runes eventually settled in the core of Xing Tianli's soul, and the shadows of these runes were imprinted in his soul over and over again. Xing Tianli's soul was passively imprinted with the projections of these innate wonders, and the 'mere celestial yang god' actually revealed a mysterious aura of 'eternal immortality'.

The branches obtained by Sophie's sacrifice were consumed at an increasingly rapid rate.

Xing Tianli activated the fundamental method of "A Stick of Incense in the Furnace of Heaven and Earth", which had incredible smelting power over all things in heaven and earth.

Now, he had the help of the ancient bronze sword on the Lingtai Zifu. This branch, which contained infinite mysteries and tremendous innate power, was finally completely refined by Xing Tianli within a few days.

'Buzz'!
Waves of majestic aura diffused faintly from the towering bamboo.

Xing Tianli tightly grasped the newly born Tongtian Miaozhu and shook it casually. A nearly transparent and dazzling sword light swept across. With a "swish", a mountain hundreds of feet high a hundred miles away was split in half by the sword light, and a sword mark as thin as a paper and more than ten miles long was torn on the mountain.

Xing Tianli clapped his hands in praise.

When this sword flew out, even if there were ten battleships blocking his way, they would be chopped down by this sword.

He let out a long roar and soared into the sky.

He flew for dozens of miles and reached an altitude of nearly ten miles above the ground. With a wave of his sleeves, the ammunition he had taken out from the ammunition bay of the Saint Rose fleet kept flying out. Soon, nearly ten thousand tons of standard military high explosives gathered into a ball in front of him.

Xing Tianli cautiously retreated several miles, then he gritted his teeth and moved another two miles closer to the pile of explosives.

After weighing for a long time, he finally stopped less than a mile away from the pile of explosives.

"Baby, don't misunderstand me!"

Xing Tianli pointed his finger, and the ten thousand tons of explosives exploded instantly. The strong light was blinding, and large patches of flames scattered in the void. Xing Tianli looked at the terrifying shock wave coming towards him, and shook the Tongtian Miaozhu in his hand. Suddenly, a very faint seven-colored divine light rolled up, and the surging shock wave and high-temperature flames were swept away by the divine light and dissipated into nothingness.

Xing Tianli raised his eyebrows slightly, he felt a tiny impact!
The terrifying explosion that was enough to destroy a mountain was dissipated into thin air with just a roll of the Tongtian Magic Bamboo, which had been integrated with the innate spiritual object and had been injected with a large amount of the 'essence' of the 'Seven Treasures Wonderful Tree' by Xing Tianli.

The only remaining impact force was probably equivalent to that of a 200-pound wild boar crashing headfirst into Xing Tianli?

Facing Xing Tianli, whose physical strength is already 500,000 tons, a 200-jin wild boar is charging at him with all its strength?

'hehe'!
Xing Tianli smiled, and then his laughter became louder and louder, until he laughed so hard that he almost couldn't breathe - that night, on the river bank outside Xiaolongqiu Town, after being hit in the face with a small nuclear bomb at close range by the self-destructing pit bull, Xing Tianli's heavy burden that had been weighing on his heart for days was finally mostly gone!

Even with 10,000 tons of explosives, they can no longer do anything to me.

According to the experiment just now, the ability of the Magic Bamboo to eliminate the power of ten thousand tons of explosives is just a small test!

Xing Tianli was confident that even if a 100,000-ton nuclear bomb was dropped three feet in front of him, as long as he could activate the Tongtian Miaozhu, he would not be hurt at all!
Xing Tianli turned around and looked at the indigenous team that was quickly moving through the jungle dozens of miles away.

The only remaining worry was about his own brothers... That was why Xing Tianli had to mobilize so many natives and tame so many Dongyun people.

Just cannon fodder sent to die.

It is enough for Xing Tian's brothers to stay in various places and control these cannon fodders for Xing Tianli!
In the western sky, two golden eagles, carrying two brothers from the Xingtian clan, came through the clouds and wind. They quickly joined several circling eagles in the native team, and the two Xingtian brothers shouted at the top of their lungs.

Xing Tianli flew over on a cloud.

"What? Zhao Qingxuan ran to Black Pearl Harbor?" Xing Tianli widened his eyes.

After traveling through the jungle for several days, the native team was not far from the edge of the jungle. Xing Tianli left the team behind, took the two brothers who came to deliver the message, and flew straight to Black Pearl Harbor.

Dusk.

Xing Tianli descended from the clouds at the edge of the jungle outside Black Pearl Harbor and walked to the new residence of the Commercial Office. As soon as he walked to the square outside the residence building, Xing Tianli heard dense gunfire coming from the top of the residence building.

On the roof, Tom and Jerry had several human-shaped targets erected.

The human-shaped target was made of steel plate and covered with white target paper. On the white target, there were three names written in very elegant thin gold script: "Zhu Diao Chong", "Cai Jing" and "Tong Guan".

Zhao Qingqin, who had just taken a shower and changed clothes, still had a strong scent of soap on her body. She was wearing men's clothes and had long hair. She was carrying a light machine gun and firing at the human-shaped target. The bullets hit the target with a clanging sound, sparks flew everywhere, and stray bullets flew everywhere. Tom and Jerry were like two little girls being bullied, trembling and hiding behind two heavy steel shields.

More than a dozen brothers of the Xingtian family carried steel shields and stood by the guardrail on the roof. They raised their shields from time to time to block the stray bullets flying towards the square in front of the building, for fear that some bullets would bounce back into the square and accidentally injure some unlucky guy.

However, when Xing Tianli just came back, there was not a single ghost in the huge square in front of the building.

Everyone was so scared that they huddled in the building, and no one dared to step out of the building.

Xing Tianli coughed lightly: "Your Highness, are you angry?"

Xing Tianli's face twitched violently as he scanned the names on the target. Who was Zhu Diao Chong? He didn't know him. But he saw Tong Guan in person. And this Cai Jing? Could it be that Cai Jing? The Cai Jing who was the leader of the six thieves?

Live?

Hey, you, Zhao Song, are really a turtle, a tortoise, a demon, and a monster, all of them have come out!

Zhao Qingxuan took out a high-explosive military grenade - God knows where she got this thing from. She pulled the rope and threw it directly in front of several targets.

With a loud bang, the grenade exploded, several targets were blown to pieces, and a hole the size of a water tank was blown in the roof of the building. Debris fell through the hole, scaring the staff in the office below so much that they screamed and scrambled out of the door.

Xing Tianli covered his forehead and said, "Are you still angry now? Well, I heard that two frigates were chasing you all the way here. One was bombed and sunk. There is still one here. Do you want to attack it?"

Zhao Qingqi was stunned for a moment, then turned around, curled her red lips, and smiled excitedly: "Really? I had this idea originally, but after all, it was the spoils captured by your people, and I am not very comfortable doing this!"

"Can you really order it?"

Xing Tianli looked towards the distant port. The captured Yidoli frigate was anchored there. Several technical officers from Dongyun were climbing up and down the frigate with their men, busy surveying and mapping various data.

Xing Tianli's heart sank slightly.

These Dongyun people really made him feel a little scared - they seized Yidoli's frigate and immediately went to survey the data, figure out and learn the warship construction technology!
Fortunately, these people have been subdued by me.

With a faint light flickering in his eyes, Xing Tianli saw the faces of those technical officers clearly from a distance of several miles, and remembered them firmly - well, the enemy's heroes, our enemies, these people, find a time, a place, and an excuse to let them ascend to heaven comfortably!

Xing Tianli retracted his gaze and said with a smile: "It's just a frigate. Previously, in Baijiao Port, I also ordered more than 500 Saint Ross ships to sink into the sea. What's the big deal about such a small boat?"

Zhao Qingqi's smile suddenly froze.

After spending some time with Princess Yihe in Pinghai City, Zhao Qingqi had some understanding of the current world prices. The cost of ships produced by the hundreds of countries in the far west was often 100,000 taels of silver, and if it was a warship, the cost would go straight to 1 million taels of silver.

Xing Tianli said that he sank more than 500 large ships?
Is that a boat?

What he sank was all silver, pure white silver!

As the Jiazi walker of the Zhao Song generation, Zhao Qingqi even asked his family to dispatch Tong Guan and Yang Nianzu, and even mobilized 3,000 Jingsai troops, 800 Beiwei troops, and 300 Xuanwu guards to fight brazenly in Pinghai City, causing huge casualties to Falushi and other countries.

After going through all this trouble, she was just extorting... no, 'negotiating' an 'annual tribute' of 30 million taels of silver from Princess Yihe!
Thirty million taels of silver is certainly a huge number.

But if used for shipbuilding, it can only build a dozen battleships!
Xing Tianli sank more than 500 large and small ships? Even if only half of them were warships, wouldn't he have sunk hundreds of millions of taels of silver?
Zhao Qingqi's pupils slightly dilated, her red lips slightly opened, and she asked in disbelief: "You, sank, more than 500, ships? The kind of ironclad ships built by the slaves of the Western barbarians? More than 500?"

Xing Tianli shook his sleeves and smiled without saying a word.

Isn't it sunk? These ships are hitting their sleeves, waiting for them to be melted bit by bit.

Zhao Qingxuan took a deep breath and pointed at Xing Tianli, wanting to say something. At that moment, the lookout's shouts were heard from the lighthouse not far away, "Boom, boom, boom, boom." At the warning gun position below the lighthouse, twelve small-caliber signal cannons roared in unison, firing thirty-six consecutive shots.

Xing Tianli's expression changed slightly, and then he became inexplicably excited.

Thirty-six gunshots?

According to the regulations of the Dongyun Navy, thirty-six warning guns mean that there are at least a hundred enemy fleets attacking, requiring the entire Black Pearl Harbor to enter a level one combat readiness state directly!
Hundreds of enemy fleets?

Hey!
Xing Tianli's sleeves fluttered, and he felt that each of the 108 small spaces within the purple ribbon Taoist robe was so empty that it was almost lonely.

High-pitched and sharp alarms sounded from watchtowers, lookout posts, and coastal defense artillery positions throughout Black Pearl Harbor. On the hillsides north and south of Black Pearl Harbor, heavy, large-caliber coastal defense guns slowly rolled out along the rails from one coastal defense artillery fortification after another.

In the port area, countless civilians fled in panic.

In the port, a large group of Dongyun soldiers, a large group of Yingjishi armed guards, and the heavily armored Xingtian brothers quickly rushed to various defensive positions. In the port, Dongyun warships were urgently alive, and those patrol boats were dragging steel chains and rushing straight to the port's inlet and outlet channels.

Xing Tianli originally wanted to ask Zhao Qingqi what she had done to make the two Yiduoli frigates chase her all the way to Black Pearl Harbor. But seeing how busy Black Pearl Harbor was, he waved his hand, waved his sleeves, jumped down from the tall building, and strode straight to the port.

When Xing Tianli ran to the port, he saw huge ships emerging from the horizon. Xing Tianli's eyes flickered, he saw the appearance of the ships clearly, and then he stopped abruptly!
"What a piece of crap!"

Xing Tianli's two big sleeves sank weakly.

What appeared on the sea were not the steel warships he had planned, but huge wooden sailing ships!

Among them, those belonging to the Zhao Song Dynasty were extremely elegant. They were made entirely of beautiful white wood and decorated with various patterns on the hull. There were thirty-six wooden sailing ships that were more than 40 meters in length.

There were also thirty-six white wooden sailboats that were slightly shorter, about twenty meters in length.

The others were the white wooden sailboats, about ten meters long, that Zhao Qingxuan used to escape to Black Pearl Harbor. There were a total of seventy-one of them.

That's one hundred and forty-three wooden sailing ships, all with full sails on their masts.

There was no wind on the sea, but the wind was echoing around these wooden sailboats, blowing them at high speed.

Behind these large white ships of the Zhao Song Dynasty were the "giant warships" that shocked Xing Tianli - leading the way were twelve giant wooden sailing ships that were over a hundred feet long and thirty feet wide, with extremely thick hulls. When the masts were fully hung with sails, the huge sails looked like clouds hanging from the sky, giving people an "overwhelming" feeling of oppression!

For some reason, when Xing Tianli saw these twelve huge ships, the word "treasure ship" came to his mind!
Could it be a treasure ship?
During the Ming Dynasty, a great eunuch sailed to the West on a flagship!
These twelve giant treasure ships were fully hoisted with sails, with the wind howling. The twelve giant ships were moving at a speed no slower than the Zhao Song sailboats, raising huge waves as big as mountains, and rushing straight towards Black Pearl Harbor with great momentum!

At dusk, sunlight dances on the sea.

On the spacious decks of the twelve treasure ships, a large group of sturdy men wearing Feiyu uniforms and embroidered spring swords on their waists were looking in the direction of Black Pearl Harbor with eyes as sharp as knives.

Behind these sturdy men stood thousands of soldiers wearing scarlet mandarin duck uniforms and holding guns. These soldiers had a fiery aura, and even from dozens of miles away, Xing Tianli could feel their fighting spirit that was almost condensed into substance.

Xing Tianli looked at Zhao Qingqian who had just caught up with him and said, "Is he here to chase you?"

Zhao Qingqi's face turned pale as he looked at the overwhelming fleet on the sea.

Xing Tianli pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "With your character, you may be able to kill people and set fires, but you don't have the heart to bring disaster to the country and the people. Therefore, it is not worth sending out such a large fleet to arrest him relentlessly."

"Just now, on the target, there was a creature called Red Carving Insect?"

"You were taken out for marriage?"

"That fellow named Zhu Diao Chong is your marriage partner? You don't like him? You, ran away from home?" Xing Tianli smiled so brightly that he almost clapped and stomped his feet!

It turned out that they were here to arrest the little princess who ran away from home and escaped from marriage!
