Chapter 516: Meeting The Prince And Not Kneeling
"Yes, Sun and Moon Twin Islands, this name is very good!"
Lu nodded dissatisfied, and lightly tapped Zhu Zu's flickable little face before turning around and leaving.
He only took a few steps slowly when he felt a chill coming from behind him, as if a pair of eyes that could kill him were staring at him, he couldn't help laughing, and then quickened his pace.
Zhu Zu's face was red with shyness, and he spat angrily at Lu Bu's back.
The reason why Lu Bu asked them to bring the Louchuan was entirely because the Louchuan were much smaller than the Fuchuan. Although they were also ships that could sail on the sea, they were equipped with two eight-ox crossbows.
The reason why they went to the gathering place should be the first thing they showed was goodwill. If the cannons were mounted, the reaction they would cause when they appeared would probably be no different from that of pirates!
Those who followed Lu Bu aboard the ship, apart from fifty of the most elite soldiers, were only Huang Xin, three pirates, and one Wang Chengen.
Since ancient times, people like eunuchs have only appeared in the imperial palace. Even eunuchs with expatriates are still palaces at the royal level, so they will naturally add credibility to Lu Bu's words and deeds in front of those gathering places.
"Your Highness, shall we drive this boat to the gathering place?"
Huang Xin turned around on the deck of the building ship a few times, finally found the two crossbows, then turned around nervously and found Lu Bu, and asked in a low voice.
"There are a lot of people in the gathering place. If there is no strong force to deter, we may not be able to directly enter and communicate with their people."
Huang Xin's previous experience in the gathering place made him subconsciously troubled, and his expression was inexplicably cramped at this time.
Lu Bu stood on the deck, turned around and looked at the attic behind him, but did not answer Huang Xin's question.
"This kind of building boat comes from the kind of building boat used by Emperor Sui Yang to drink and have fun on the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal. It can accommodate three to five hundred people for a long time!"
The embarrassment on Huang Xin's face turned into bewilderment. He didn't want to understand what Lu Bu meant by saying these words at this time.
"So, this kind of cherry boat often stores a lot of food, grass and living supplies!"
After finishing this sentence, Lu Bu stopped explaining, and Huang Xin suddenly realized.
Although the adherents of the Ming Dynasty brought a lot of supplies when they came here, after living for a long time, they will inevitably lack various daily necessities.
These materials are enough to welcome their favor, as for the following things, it is beyond his control.
According to Huang Xin's guidance, it took them less than two cups of tea to get close to the small island that is very close to here.
There are still a full two nautical miles away from the shore, and they can clearly see the attic of the shack on the shore [there are still bursts of cooking smoke.
On the beach closest to the shore, a large wooden fence was artificially piled up, and there were many horse-rejection posts lined up outside. It was seen (aeaa) that there were more than a dozen soldiers with long guns patrolling back and forth.
Although those buildings are also very crude, they can finally see the style of the Han family, and there is a sense of intimacy when viewed from a distance.
"The number of people in this gathering place seems to have increased. The last time we came here was only one and a half months ago, and the scale here is only half of the current size!"
Huang Xin ran to the bow of the boat, looked towards the shore, and said excitedly.
"With a full starboard rudder, the boat can only get as close as possible. If we want to get there, we still need a small boat!"
After Lu Bu gave orders to the people next to him, he boarded the small boat first. Huang Xin left the three pirates on the upper boat, and followed Wang Chengen to board the boat. There were only eight people left with him. Soldiers rowing.
The people on the shore had discovered the situation here a long time ago, and while they were inquiring about this side with semaphore, some people began to report to the village, and a large number of civilians and soldiers with weapons ran out of it.
Looking at those people lined up on the shore, Huang Xin and Wang Chengen both wiped their foreheads involuntarily, and big drops of sweat dripped down from them.
"boating!"
Lu Bu patted the soldiers beside him and calmly ordered.
After the small boat was lowered, it began to approach the shore slowly, while the tall boat dropped anchor on the spot after the semaphore was signaled.
After finding out that there were no artillery or other weapons on board, and there were only a dozen or so people on the approaching boat, the people on the shore were obviously relieved, and did not point their weapons at this side again. Those with bamboo bows and arrows The soldiers also dropped their weapons.
As soon as the boat touched the shore, a dozen or so strongest-looking men walked over, carefully aiming their weapons at this side.
"Bold and unreasonable, when you see His Highness the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, you don't kneel down and salute, but dare to point a sharp weapon at His Highness. Are you planning to rebel?"
With a sharp voice, Wang Chengen yelled beside Lu Bu. .
