Chapter 1080: Sealing the Sea (2)

Even if Niu Da Niu Er used his strength to compare with those speedboats specially used to land on the beach? In a moment, Niu Er saw two more boats on the left and right sides of his body. The fully armed soldiers on the boat grinned at him.

After screaming, Niu Er let go of the oar and picked up a harpoon from the fish cabin. As soon as he lifted the harpoon, he saw several crossbows pointing at him, and the arrows shone with a faint light under the sunlight.

Niu Dayi hugged Niu Er, pressed him down, and then hugged his head with both hands.

Niu Er was stunned for a moment, and threw away the harpoon in dejected manner, squatting in the cabin with his head in his arms.

"Get up and paddle to the shore!" A voice in Lingnan dialect that was half-baked was heard in my ears.

Niu Dazhan looked up at the other party tremblingly, and saw that the other party gestured a few more times, then he carefully held the oar and slid towards the shore.

Dozens of small boats traveled between land and large warships, constantly picking up and dropping off fully armed soldiers. Half an hour later, about a thousand soldiers gathered on the beach, and then these soldiers quickly headed far away.

Niu Da Niu Er and several other surviving fishermen were taken to the beach, and their boats were also dragged up.

"The harvest is very good!" An officer looked at the cabin. Zhu Er hoped that he would not find the big yellow croaker that held the hopes of the two brothers. But things went against his wishes. The officer's eyes were very poisonous and the next moment he opened the lid of the wooden barrel.

"Ah, big yellow croaker, good thing, you are lucky. You actually got such a big yellow croaker!" The officer laughed and reached out to attract a soldier, saying, "Take this big yellow croaker to General Pan. A few days ago, I heard him chant it!"

"You can't take it away!" I don't know where the courage came from, Niu Er jumped up suddenly, "We want to sell him to pay the tax. If you take him away, we have no money to pay the tax, the government will strip our house."

The officer was stunned for a moment, but ignored Niu Er. In Niu Er's gaze that could kill people, he handed the big yellow croaker and the barrel to the soldier. The soldier quickly got on the boat and then headed towards the warship.

Zhu Er stared at the officer, his face turned red, his chest fell, and his two fists clenched, making Kaba Kaba sound. Niu Dalian, who was squatting on the ground, pulled him a few times, but Niu Er still didn't move at all.

The officer came over, stared at Niu Er for a moment, and suddenly reached out and hammered Niu Er's naked chest a few times, nodding: "It's not bad, it's brave, it's okay, it's okay, it's definitely not weak. How good is the water?"

Niu Er said viciously: "In the water, I can kill you easily."

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers of the Northern Tang who were watching them laughed.

The officer looked at Niu Er for a long time and said, "It's better to have a bet and try it underwater. If you want to win, that big yellow croaker, oh, the big yellow croaker will definitely not be given to you, but I can give you money. How much can you sell this big yellow croaker?"

"Fifteen taels of silver, at least!" Niu Erdao.

The officer touched his arms, but only took out seven or eight silver dollars, looked at the soldiers around him, and reached out. The soldiers all took out the silver dollars from their arms with a smile, and in a blink of an eye, fifteen silver dollars were gathered.

"Do you recognize this? Just give me a ounce of silver!" said the officer. "If you want to win me, they will be yours."

The officer threw a handful of silver dollars on the beach.

"You're going to lose?"

Niu Er looked at the silver dollars, and his eyes were shining with a scorching light. He ignored Niu Da's desperate attempt to pull his calves and shouted: "I'm going to lose, this life is yours. If you want to kill or cut, you can do whatever you want!"

"Okay, please feel free!" the officer laughed. "Let me see your condition."

Niu Er followed the officer toward a small boat without any hesitation.

The two boarded the boat. The officer picked up a paddle and signaled Niu Er to take another paddle. The two rowed the boat towards the deep water area.

Niu Da stood up nervously and looked at the boat in the distance.

The soldiers didn't care at all and said laughing: "This man has a commendable courage. He actually dared to compete with the Martial Arts Captain."

"This is called the ignorant fearlessness."

"How long do you think it will take?"

"I bet that ten breaths are enough."

Amid the laughter of the soldiers, the officer stood up on the boat in the deep waters and said with a smile: "I'll wait for you!"

Then, under Niu Er's gaze, he poured a backward onion into the water.

Niu Er took a deep breath and jumped down with a helping boat.

Above the sea, strings of bubbles rose.

Time passed by little by little, and bubbles kept rising, but the two of them never came out.

The smiles on the soldiers' faces gradually disappeared, and they were walking towards the water without realizing it. Niu Da stood up nervously.

He hopes Niu Er can win.

But if it really wins, will the officer be so angry that he kills them?

If Niu Er killed the officer, I am afraid that none of them would survive.

I shouldn't bet with this officer at all.

Winning is also a death.

After a while, soldiers nervously climbed onto the boat and prepared to row the boat to the place where the two of them were fighting for rescue. At this time, they were no longer sure that their commander could win.

Just as the boat was rowing, the sea water churned and a head emerged. The soldiers suddenly burst into cheers like thunder. The person who emerged was their commander, the captain named Fang.

The officer reached out to wipe the water droplets on his face, and then dived into the water again. This time, he held up a person with both hands and pushed the man onto the boat, then pressed the man onto the side of the boat with both hands, and jumped onto the boat.

The guy who was lying motionless on the boat was naturally Niu Er.

The boat slowly landed, and the officer jumped off the boat and pointed behind him: "Drag that kid down to remove the water."

Several soldiers laughed and jokingly dragged Niu Er down from the boat. The few of them worked together to lift Niu Er upside down and trembled constantly.

Large mouthfuls of sea water surged out of Niu Er's mouth and nose. It seemed that it was almost done, so I threw Niu Er on the beach.

After a while, Niu Er finally woke up in a little confused and looked at the smiling officer opposite him and suddenly reflected on him.

"You lost!" the officer smiled and said, "But this kid is very good, I almost lost."

"This kid is not your opponent, are you playing with him?" Some soldiers flattered.

"No, no, no, this kid is really better than mine!" The officer shook his head and said seriously: "But, the skill of fighting is too poor. What's your name?"

Niu Er was dejected.

"Niu Er! I lost, I'll kill you and cut you as much as I can."

"Remember, your life is mine. From now on, you will be my soldier." The officer smiled.

"I can't be your soldier. If I want to be your soldier, my family will not survive." Niu Er shook his head and said.

The officer smiled slightly and looked up into the distance.

In the distance, black smoke rose into the sky.

Niu Da exclaimed: "That's our village."

"Now, that village is gone." The officer spread his hands and looked at them, saying, "So, your home is gone, either."

As he spoke, the military and civilian walked to Niu Da Niu Er's ship again. As soon as he stretched out his hand, a soldier immediately took out a turbulent oil bomb from his arms, ignited it, and threw it onto the ship.

Several people quickly retreated.

Soon after, a loud blast and a blazing fire broke out.

"Now, your ship is gone!" The officer looked at Niu Daniu Er and said, "What should you do now?"

"I'll fight with you!" Niu Er jumped up and rushed towards the officer. The officer sneered. The weak Niu Er didn't need any effort to put in him now. He let Niu Er lie on the ground with one kick.

Zhu Da looked at the thicker black smoke in the distance and cried continuously.

"His name is Niu Er, you won't call him Niu Da, are you?" The officer was too lazy to pay attention to Niu Er and walked to Niu Da's side.

"Your village has now turned into ashes, but as for the people in the village, as long as they do not attack our soldiers, they will not be worried about their lives!" The officer said: "Now I will give you a choice. We have an island in the sea, with fertile land on the island, you can farm, of course, fish, and there is a shipyard where you can work. If you don't want to be exploited by the government here, follow us."

Niu Da looked at the officer and said tremblingly: "You mean, you didn't kill the people in the village?"

"That's not necessarily?" said the officer: "If they don't resist, there will be no problem, but if they resist, death is inevitable. Now, you can go back to the village and tell those people whether to follow us or wander? I can tell you that you will not be able to survive this coastal area in the future."

"I'll go, I'll go!" Niu Da said loudly.

The officer waved his head, and the two soldiers stepped forward, leading Niu Da and ran towards the place where the black smoke was stormy.

Niu Er climbed up with his stomach and wanted to follow him, but the officer kicked him to the ground again: "Your life is mine, where do you want to go?"

When it was dark, about hundreds of villagers were driven by soldiers and staggered from a distance. Then they boarded a small boat and were transported to a large warship in the distance.

Then the warship set sail and headed towards the deep sea.

Niu Er stood on the bow of the boat. At this moment, he was already wearing a uniform of the Northern Tang navy. He looked at the direction where there was still a sparkling fire in the distance, where it was his home.
