Chapter 30 (1/2)
The battle was over. The small port was full of fire. All the guards stationed here were killed, and all the bodies and heads were cut off. The fleet sailors built a Jingguan as a deterrent.
The remaining non combatants, old and weak women and children were driven to the square. For those who hid in the house and didn't go out, the fire was enough to burn the escaped fish. The sailors of the Zheng family were guarded by them in full arms.
At the dock, a young white man knelt down in front of Zheng Hong, shivering on the ground, waiting for Zheng Hong's sentence.
Wei Ran looked at the young man and said, ”the Soros family of the British Empire? So young, it should be impossible to command the king of the Black Sea. ”
”The Soros family, like the Zheng family, are pirates. The one who ran the family was also a merchant and a thief. The other was made an earl and has always served in the British government. On the surface, the two families have separated and cut off contact. This boy is the count's fifth in line. ”
It's ranked fifth. Needless to say, it's too difficult to die the first four brothers in this life. He is a spare tire among the spare tires, the one with no hope.
Otherwise, he would not be sent to a small port in Southeast Asia where birds don't shit. Therefore, the family has to work. If something goes wrong, he will be the first to be pushed out.
”Hum, so the person behind the scenes is the distant relative of the boy.”
Zheng Hong sneered and squatted in front of the boy. ”My brother said that your distant relative was the behind the scenes culprit who ordered the king of the Black Sea to rob and kill me. Do you think so?”
The boy's whole body trembled. He couldn't say anything. He even peed in his pants.
Wei Ran was not interested in paying attention to such a unlucky guy, but andrev, the king of the Black Sea, pointed out that he was ordered by the boy. Whether it was right or not, andrev pointed out the real murderer even if he beat around the bush.
Don't even think about it. It must be the family of Soros pirates who contacted the king of the Black Sea through this unlucky guy. The king of the Black Sea knew the way, but didn't break it. The head iron and greed took over the business.
It must have cost a lot of money to buy the head of the second childe of the Zheng family, otherwise andrev won't go to the king of the five seas after finishing this vote.
Zheng Hong looked at the unlucky guy, shook his head, stood up and said to Wei Ran, ”do you know which side your opponent comes from next game?”
Zheng Hong asked, and Wei Ran naturally guessed, ”is it his family?”
”It's his pirate born relative. Strictly speaking, the boy belongs to the count family. He has been separated from his relatives for three generations and is not on the list of business alliance. So if he wants to assassinate me, or I kill him, it doesn't violate the rules of the business alliance. ”
”There are loopholes in any rule.”
”Of course, we Zheng family have done such things. The boy is so cowardly that killing him is meaningless. And see if you can keep it and extort something from the count of England. ”
Zheng Hong waved and ordered his men to imprison the count's fifth son. Then yiyiran went to the square and passed in front of trembling civilians.
He walked leisurely and slowly, not in a hurry for revenge.
Finally, she stopped in front of a white woman. The woman was wearing a long silk skirt and a velvet hat. Her dress was low-key and luxurious. People who didn't understand clothes couldn't see her expensive dress.
Zheng Hong was certainly not the kind of person who didn't know anything. He walked up to the woman, crouched slightly and picked up her chin with his fingers. Wei Ran also looked at the woman. From the angle he stood, he could only see part of her side face. He vaguely felt familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had met.
”Oh, isn't this Lady Catherine? Why are you here? Oh, I remember. You are the mistress of Soros IV, his favorite. ”
Soros IV was the patriarch of the pirate family and the one who really instigated the king of the Black Sea to rob and kill Zheng Hong behind the scenes.
Wei Ran looked at Zheng Hong, and the blood color flashed in his eyes. He knew that he had the intention to kill.
He frowned and just killed the guard at the port. It was part of war and revenge. Fighting was also common, so he killed all the guards and built the Beijing temple. He didn't say anything.
But these people have nothing to do with the fighting at sea. They are innocent people involved. If you want to kill among these people, even if you still have something to rely on Zheng Hong, Wei Ran can't accept it.
Wei Yanshun looked at the woman with Zheng Hong's eyes. He was stunned and recognized her immediately. It turned out that it was the Portuguese lady he met when he participated in three bloody battles, but he didn't know her name at that time.
”Captain, I know this man.”
Catherine trembled and looked at Wei Ran, also surprised.
Zheng Hong looked back at Wei Ran and was very dissatisfied. But Wei Ran deliberately didn't explain, and his eyes looked at Zheng Hong without hesitation.
The two sides looked at each other for more than ten seconds, which was Zheng Hong's escort. At the foot of the mountain, they noticed the hidden smell of gunpowder. They quietly put their hands on the handle of the knife and watched Wei Ran with vigilance.
Zheng Hong finally reluctantly spread his hand and said with a bitter smile, ”well, you win. You have a crush on her, so you can take it back to your room now.”
