Chapter 158 The fire in the red sky!

Chapter 158: The firelight reflected in the red sky!

"Young Master, come and see, the eldest master of the Zheng family is here." In front, a Liang family pirate who had already rushed up the city wall excitedly greeted him here.

When Liang Pengfei climbed the city wall that had become a broken wall, Zheng Wenxian had reached the point of looking back and reflecting. After seeing Liang Pengfei, his eyes that seemed a little dry because he was on the verge of death seemed to have regained some vitality.

Liang Pengfei glanced around lightly: "What should you do? Hurry up, we don't have time to continue to procrastinate here."

"Young Master, I'll stay." Monk Chen's eyes did not dare to relax and stare at Zheng Wenxian's trembling and pale hands.

Liang Pengfei said without raising his head, "I said it, no need." His voice was very light, but that unquestionable tone was definitely not a negotiation but an order.

When everyone heard Liang Pengfei's words, they all sensibly went to work on their own. Even Monk Chen and Scholar Bai, who were usually alone, had to retreat to wait.

"You are dying. Actually, you shouldn't have died. Unfortunately, you met me. Do you know? If you didn't mess with me, you wouldn't have ended up today." Liang Pengfei looked at Zheng Wenxian, who was obsessed with his eyes widened, and said slowly to his old friend.

"Okay, I'll lend you your head to get promoted and make money for me. There is another thing I want to tell you, in fact, I hate Qing dogs more than you, and the court of the Qing Dynasty. Everything I do now is just to overthrow it in the future. And you are just a mantis that accidentally jumped out and wanted to use your arm to block my wheels." Liang Pengfei saw Zheng Wenxian's suddenly shrinking pupils, as if he had countless doubts and troubles in his heart, but now, Liang Pengfei has no time to leave him. He pulled out the sword on his waist, stabbed it hard, and stabbed it in an extremely accurate manner between his two ribs.

"..." Zheng Wenxian could only stare at the eyes that had begun to scatter, with his mouth open, and the dark red blood that spilled out from the corners of his mouth from time to time represents that his life is passing rapidly. His body, which had almost disappeared, twitched slightly after a few times, and there was no trace of movement.

Liang Pengfei looked at Zheng Wenxian silently. In another time and space, Zheng Wenxian would become a maritime overlord and dominate Guangdong and Guangxi. However, now, his historical mission has been destroyed under his own knife, and his fate has been changed. Liang Pengfei did not know what kind of changes would happen in this period of history. However, when he thought of the historical books of later generations, Liang Pengfei couldn't help but spit hard. "There is no worst in history in the past three hundred years, only worse. Can he not compare to those Qing borers who forcibly cling to the backs of the Chinese nation to knock marrow and suck blood."

When Liang Pengfei thought he needed to experience a very difficult street battle to achieve the final victory, he saw his subordinates pouring into the castle quickly like running in the competition. Only sporadic gunfire signaled to Liang Pengfei. It seemed that in this war, the opponent's resistance was as weak as a force-level confrontation.

Perhaps it was the short-soldier outside the city who wanted to take over their confidence, and the surprise attack of the unconscience-free cannon arranged by Liang Pengfei to the extreme destroyed their last courage to resist. A quarter of an hour later, Liang Pengfei had received good news from his subordinates who came to report the news. The battle for the castle was coming to an end. On his side, about seven or eight people were injured in the firefight with the Zheng family's stubborn protesters. Except for the two who died on the spot, the remaining few were not in danger of their lives.

There was no decent resistance at all. It was just that in front of the Zheng family's old house, nearly a hundred Zheng family soldiers firmly guarded the gate. They originally wanted to attack for a force, but were afraid that they would accidentally hurt important people who needed to be captured alive, so they asked Liang Pengfei for instructions.

"Who is there inside?" Liang Pengfei took a monocular telescope and observed the situation in the fortress. At all commanding heights, there were already pirates in the Liang family. The castle was not too big, so it was enough to scatter eight hundred people into it.

"The uncle Zheng Lianchang, Zheng Xinwei, his wife, seven-bedroom concubine, and three underage sons." The pirate who reported the news immediately answered the answer Liang Pengfei wanted to know loudly.

"This guy is quite capable of giving birth. Let Wu Ganjin tell the people in the Zheng family's old house that I will give them a stick of incense stick. If it doesn't fall, I will use a cannon to razor the old house to the ground. Remember, there is only a stick of incense stick." Liang Pengfei thought for a while and gave an order to the subordinate.

"Young Master, what should we do?" Bai Shusheng pointed to the Zheng family injured who were still struggling on the brink of death. There were definitely many of these wounded people. Just those who escaped just now and were injured after being bombarded by artillery fire, there were no less than a thousand people. In addition, they were all dragged and pushed by the pirates of the Liang family to a dead corner under the city wall.

Seeing the remnants of the Zheng family who were bandaging and supporting each other under the strict guards of the Liang family pirates, Liang Pengfei said lightly. "Since they are all alive, let them live. We don't need to waste our ammunition for these people anymore. When Zheng Lianchang comes back, let him take care of these people."

"No, Young Master, you really want to keep them." Bai Shusheng couldn't help but be stunned. He really didn't know why Young Master did this.

Liang Pengfei smiled and said, "Can I support them in vain? These people are all direct descendants of the Zheng family. Our loyalty to the Zheng family is definitely not something we can make them obey me in a short time. Another thing is that Zheng Lianchang will definitely not bring much food and grass when he goes to war this time. Leaving these people to them is equivalent to giving them more than a thousand more mouths to wait for food..."

Bai Shusheng looked at his young master with admiration. It was so vicious. The young master's idea was extremely vicious. "Although Lantau Island is a good place, it is not the time for me to eat." Liang Pengfei continued. This Lantau Island is indeed a place that is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but now, although Liang Pengfei has been raided by the Zheng family's nest, the problem is that their strength has not suffered much loss. At least Liang Pengfei is not optimistic about the huge casualties that the navy in the court can cause to the Zheng family's fleet. Otherwise, how could the Zheng family be free and carefree in the Guangdong and Guangxi waters for so many years?

All Liang Pengfei needs to do is to accumulate his own merits, rather than to confront the Zheng family head-on. Besides, with the troops he has in his hands, it is simply a delusion to guard Lantau Island. It is better to continue to manage King Crab Island and the Central Luzon Islands well.

In less than a stick of incense, the Zheng family in the Zheng family's old house finally surrendered. When Zheng Lianchang's uncle, Zheng Xinwei, who was nearly 80 years old, stood in front of Liang Pengfei, although the old man was not dressed and had a bruise on his face, he still seemed so reserved and arrogant.

"If my nephew hadn't led his troops to fight Qinggou, how could you, a child of the Liang family, succeed?" After seeing Liang Pengfei standing in front of him and showing a smug smile, Zheng Xinwei would never have imagined that the old nest that the Zheng family, which had been standing for more than a hundred years, made this young man who looked extremely young and seemed arrogant and arrogant, break through the castle with only more than 800 people.

"You are right, but if your nephew doesn't cause trouble for me, it's not my turn to take action today. If you want to blame, you blame your poor nephew." Liang Pengfei didn't mean to be angry at all, but just pointed to a corpse not far away. Seeing the familiar face, Zheng Xinwei's face changed and his body shook, but he quickly stood straight again: "Although you have captured this place, you think you can keep it here." Zheng Xinwei's voice was filled with resentment and hatred, and the turbid old eyes were flashing fiercely, like an old wolf struggling to death.

Liang Pengfei nodded, "You are right. Now I have only a thousand people. Zheng Lianchang is afraid that he can take a boat back soon, and at most, it will take a day and a night. I am afraid that I will not be able to leave even if I want to, so I will not stay here for such stupid things."

Zheng Xinwei couldn't help but look at Liang Pengfei again and pondered for a moment: "Okay, you can calm down in addition to a great victory. You are indeed not an ordinary person. However, what you do now has become an endless hatred for my Zheng family. My nephew will never let you go."

"Hahaha, okay, you don't have to slander me anymore. Monk, let someone take them all onto the boat. As for whether your nephew can avenge you, you will be in the underworld and wait for him to bring you news." Liang Pengfei smiled faintly, and Monk Chen waved his hand. The uncle who was escorting Zheng Lianchang's headed out of the castle. Behind him were his family and Zheng Lianchang's relatives. After careful identification, it was confirmed that there were only more than a hundred people who needed to be taken away. However, in the castle, in addition to the wounded ones of more than a thousand people, there were about three or four thousand old, weak, sick and disabled.

However, they were all driven out of the castle by the Liang family pirates. Not long after, a fire began to ignite in the castle. When Liang Pengfei and others evacuated, the Zheng family castle, which had been slapped in a sea of ​​fire. Liang Pengfei asked the countless gunpowder and saltpeter stored by the Zheng family to transport all the gunpowder and saltpeter stored in the Zheng family from the warehouse to encourage the fire. Until Liang Pengfei and others evacuated the castle gate, the rolling smoke even formed a rolling, gray-black mushroom cloud in the sky.
