This military-industrial longbow is not comparable to that of folk bows and arrows.

Some pirates intentionally or unintentionally hid the shoddy bows and arrows in their hands behind them.

"Chief, there is a letter on the arrow."

Some people also noticed a letter tied to the back of the arrow.

Liu Xi looked over, then saw Liu Hongyi laughing lightly, and was slightly stunned, "Cook it."

Some pirates ran away happily.

"Hao!"

Only by using a lot of effort can I pull the arrow out of the tree trunk and run back to Liu Xikuang.

Liu Xikuang took off the letter, threw away the arrow, looked down at the letter, and then suddenly looked at Liu Hongyi standing on the bow of the ship, "Please comfort the envoy to land on the island!"

There was an unconcealed surprise on his face.

The letter was a secret letter written by Zhao Dongting himself.

Liu Xikuang, you are already loyal to me on Crescent Island. I have sent General Liu Hongyi, the pacifier of Guangnan West Road to the island. You should cooperate with the reunion. I intend to include the Dongsha Islands in the territory of the Song Dynasty as the center of the trade of the Holy Dynasty. General Liu will help you build the southern and northern islands and provide you with food and salary. In the future, you will be the general envoy of these two islands. You will leave two thousand pirates under your command as the island guards, and all the rest will be dismissed for the people. If you do not follow, you will deal with it yourself.

Liu Xikuang had already speculated Zhao Dongting's identity very highly, thinking that he was a child of a super martial arts family, but he never dared to think that Zhao Dongting would be the current emperor.

The power of the Song Dynasty has now been achieved, but no one can ignore it or ignore it like before. It has become a tree in the sky.

No wonder, no wonder there are so many peerless masters around him.

The more Liu Xi thought about it, the more ecstatic he felt.

He probably never thought that he would have the day to be recruited and transformed from a pirate into an official.

Although I don’t know what rank the so-called envoy general is, he will be the well-deserved leader of the two islands around the south and north in the future.

The emperor's letter was very clear. Liu's pacifier would only help him build the island, and would not seize his power.

In the future, with the Song Dynasty as its backer, Liu Xikuang's life would not be much better than before?

Liu Xikuang's vision is beyond the reach of ordinary pirates. He could imagine how wealth would be in the future as the Dongsha Islands as the Liuqiu and the Holy Dynasty trade center.

He no longer has to take his brothers to rob him everywhere, and he is always worried that the officers and soldiers will come to encircle and suppress him.

He finally understood why when the emperor just subdued him, he could say so confidently that he and Hong Niangzi's subordinates would live a life of food and clothing without worries. They alone would definitely not be able to build the Dongsha Islands into a trade center, but the Song Dynasty court undoubtedly had this foundation and strength.

Liu Hongyi brought only a few soldiers to the island.

The big ship was still parked outside the reef group.

Liu Xikuang was kind-hearted and went up to meet him personally, bowing to Liu Hongyi, "Liu Xikuang has seen Liu Anfu."

Liu Hongyi smiled softly, "I don't need to be polite."

Of course, he looked down on pirates like Liu Xikuang, and he could even be said to be extremely disgusted. It is not an exaggeration to say that he hated him, but what Zhao Dongting said before changed his view.

Zhao Dongting said that the reason why pirates are thieves is not because they like burning, killing, looting, but because they don’t have enough food to eat, so they have to do these things. After taking over the Dongsha Islands, the people on the island can have a full meal. In the future, the Holy Dynasty will be near the sea to eliminate the disaster of pirates. Suppressing bandits has always been a treatment of the symptoms but not the root cause, and everyone in the world has food to eat is the root cause.

Liu Hongyi agreed with this sentence.

Therefore, he let go of his hatred for the pirates in his heart.

He also understood that there were many pirates, who were actually residents of the island. These people were indeed forced to make a living, as the emperor said.

The pirates behind them all looked at Liu Xikuang with confusion, wondering why Liu Xikuang suddenly became so polite with the comforting commander of Guangnan West Road.

Liu Xikuang exchanged a few greetings, and looked at the more than twenty large ships on the sea.

Liu Hongyi knew his meaning and turned around and smiled, "Food, gold, silver, cloth and weapons are all on the boat. King Liu Dao can let the brothers move it down now."

"Brothers!"

Liu Xi was ecstatic, "The court sent us gold, silver and food to us, and we wanted to live a peaceful life. We all brought things to me on the boat!"

The pirates were even more confused.

A pirate leader ran to Liu Xikuang, looked at Liu Hongyi, and asked, "Captain, what's going on?"

No wonder they were confused. As pirate leaders, Liu Xikuang had a great chat with the pacifier of Guang'an West Road in the Great Song Dynasty. This was a very strange thing.

But at this time, no one dared to speak ill of Liu Hongyi, although many of these pirates died under the encirclement of officers and soldiers. This is because Liu Hongyi has established absolute prestige on the island.

Since Zhao Dongting left the Dongsha Islands, he and Hong Niangzi have each begun the road to conquest.

The pirate forces in the entire Dongsha Islands have already tasted the consequences.

Therefore, these pirate leaders have now become Liu Xikuang's subordinates.

"Do you still remember the young master when he was on Crescent Island?" Liu Xikuang turned around, his eyes swept across the confused people and asked.

The pirates nodded.

When they attacked Crescent Island, they were called by Liu Xikuang and most of them went there. They still remember the elegant young master who had several masters protecting each other.

"He is the Emperor of Song Dynasty."

Liu Xikui bowed to the northeast.

The words were very light, but they made the pirates around them shocked the sky.

Someone stared at him.

Someone swallowed quietly.

For these pirates, the emperor is a person as far away as the sky.

After dozens of seconds of silence, someone said with a disbelief: "Your Majesty is you going to...recruit us?"

Liu Xi nodded madly, "That's exactly what it is."

Some pirates were ecstatic, while others were at a loss.

Many of them were full of evil deeds, and some were worried, "Chief, what we did before..."

Liu Hongyi smiled and answered the question on behalf of Liu Xikuang, "Don't blame him for the past."

This sentence made every pirate look relieved and then he was happy.

The Great Song Dynasty appeaser would never tell lies. Moreover, they saw that Zhao Dongting subdued Liu Xikuang and Hong Niangzi on that day.

If you can become a court officer and soldier who eats imperial grain and gets a silver salary, no one is willing to do the job of licking blood from the knife.

Liu Xikuang waved his hand and said, "I'm still standing there and I'm going to get things on the boat."

Then he looked at Liu Hongyi and said, "Please, please."

The two walked side by side and walked towards the pirate's cottage halfway up the mountain.

Behind him, there was a pirate leader who took his subordinates to row a boat and shouted toward the sea warship.

Soon, the coast of the South Ring Road was in full swing.

...

Luodian, the southernmost part of Kuizhou Road.

So far, Song and Li have been confronting each other for more than a month.

There was no big war from beginning to end, and the large army of 100,000 imperial guards in Dali never crossed the border. However, the small battle between dozens and hundreds of people never stopped.

Over the years, there have been as many as thousands of soldiers on both sides. It seems that the two armies are deliberately tempering the vestors in the army.

It was just tonight, and the Luo Temple surrounded by primitive jungle seemed quite silent.

The Song army camp had already spread out in the deep mountains of Luodian, with dozens of camps in total. After dinner, there were traveling posts in each camp and heading into the mountains.

This has even become a habit.

Some people call it a joke about the hunting game after meals.

But for the roaming sentry who really want to participate in the war, it is a real battle.

These days, some people have seized many heads and were able to emerge in the army, but some have failed to sink into the sand and buried their bodies in the vast mountains.

No one has mentioned Liu Shiwu and his team that were completely wiped out.

Dozens of roaming waves crawled into the vast mountains from all over the place.

In the past, it would take no time to encounter Dali roaming and fight. But this time, the roaming men went deep into the mountains, but they could not meet Dali roaming.

A group of travelers returned to the camp.

Some of the more bold ones are continuing to go west.

Finally, when we arrived at the place where the Dali imperial guards had already set up camp, we found that the Dali army had already set up camp. There was only a pit for cooking.

There are countless pits, and large areas of trees around have been cut down.

The whistlemen were stunned, and then someone showed joy and shouted loudly: "Dali has retreated! Dali has retreated!"
Chapter completed!
