Chapter 466 The sky changes and the pirates come
The clouds in the sky are ever-changing, some forming S shapes and some forming B shapes. As the dark clouds accumulate, the visibility on the sea gradually becomes lower.
On the sea where the fleet cannot see, there are several sharp-bottomed ships with worn white sails. The ships are not big, and each ship can accommodate about thirty to fifty people. There are two cabins outside, and there are two rows of paddle boards on the side of the ship, which can be accelerated manually when necessary.
These ships hung far behind Zhu Pingan's fleet, hiding in the waves like a poisonous snake preparing to attack its prey. Because the visibility was very low that day, and these small boats were not big, they were well hidden and did not reveal any traces.
These small boats staring at the fleet are the "armed merchants" who are robbing families on the sea. Well, to be precise, they are pirates. These people call themselves armed merchants because they sell the things they steal to the Japanese, as if they are dumping goods. They call themselves "merchants" euphemistically, but in fact they are all pirates with a lot of crimes!
The pirates on the ship looked a little down and out, and there was a mix of people. Some were wearing Hanfu, and there were also many ronin wearing shabby island country clothes. They were chattering with the sound of birds, some were barefoot, and some were wearing clogs.
Among the pirates, there are also some people with crotch-headed bird sounds who don’t wear clothes at all, just wearing old and yellowed crotch cloth between their legs!
“These beasts are so immoral.” The shirtless pirates wearing Hanfu on the same ship glanced at these guys wearing crotch cloth and curled their lips in disdain.
"Daddy, you don't understand. This crotch cloth is the best fabric in our country. It absorbs sweat very well. We have never had hemorrhoids because of it." There was a man wearing a crotch cloth. The ronin from the island country with a beard spoke broken Chinese and pointed at the yellowed crotch cloth with a proud look on his face.
“My surname is Di! I’m not your father!” The shirtless pirate was very unhappy. He stretched out his hand and slapped the ronin. “If there were sons like you, all my ancestors would have to Climb out of the coffin ”
"Hi! Daddy." The ronin in the loincloth received a slap in the face, straightened his bowed legs immediately, and cheered proudly.
The other island ronin laughed and looked at this scene without feeling any dissatisfaction.
Among these pirates, the pirates of the Ming Dynasty occupied a dominant position. After all, the great pirate leaders who roamed the sea during this period were all from the Ming Dynasty; the status of pirates in island countries was quite different. Those pirates from the island country who wear samurai uniforms and have swords on their waists have a higher status. They have a similar status to the pirates of the Ming Dynasty. They belong to the backbone force. Some of them even have a higher status than many pirates of the Ming Dynasty. Most of these ronin who wear loincloths and don't have samurai swords are farmers who can't make it in the island country. They have low force value. In this industry where everything is based on strength, there is no doubt that their status is at the bottom.
The pirates of the higher-status island country take it for granted that their own people are being bullied. They are strength-minded. Whoever has a strong fist will do the right thing.
Many of the higher-status pirates among these pirates are wandering samurai from the island country, which can be seen from their "Tsukiyo" hairstyles, clothing and waist swords.
Tsukiyo head, this is the exclusive hairstyle of island warriors. The so-called Tsukiyo head means that the scalp in front of the head is shaved and a high bun is tied on the back of the head.
This hairstyle of the island warriors is very ugly and awkward to the Damin pirates, and they are even more contemptuous of the islanders. Barbarians are barbarians!
It is said that the reason why island warriors shave such ugly hairstyles is related to their status as warriors. When samurai had to fight for their governors on the battlefield, they usually put on their black hats and then put on their helmets, also known as kabutos. However, when they fought desperately on the battlefield, the hair on their heads became sweaty. will often fall down and block the line of sight, resulting in After being stabbed or chopped in the neck, and wearing a hat and helmet to cover their heads, they were itching from the heat. Some clever samurai began to shave the hair in front of their foreheads to solve some problems, and then it became popular all of a sudden. It grew up and eventually became the unique hairstyle of the samurai.
As pirates, the clothes of these samurai ronin are dirty, but the long swords on their waists are often wiped with cloth and maintained until they are shiny.
Among these pirate ships, one is larger than the others, and the pirates on it are more aggressive than those on other ships. There are more pirates in the Ming Dynasty, and fewer pirates in the island countries. This ship is The ship where the leader of this group of pirates is located is the pirate flagship.
At this moment, a wave of "miserable" cries of a Japanese girl came from the pirate flagship:
"Yiku~~Yiku~~It's so bad~~"
"Ah, "Including, Delta, Delta~~Ya Miedie~~"
In addition to the screams of the Japanese girl, there were also several curses from the Ming Dynasty, mixed with heavy breathing.
The other pirates on the flagship laughed and looked at the cabin where the sound came from, with hooligan looks on their faces, laughing and saying obscene words in groups of twos and threes.
"Haha, why do you think this Japanese girl screams so miserably?"
"You know what the hell, these Japanese girls are so good. The more miserable they scream, the braver our family will be, and then there will be more Give her steamed buns Meat and wine."
"Give it back, this devil girl is so fat now, she will look like a pig if I give it back, hahaha"
"You are so content, just do whatever you want. ' King Hui Wang Zhi, that bastard, annexed our leader Chen, and our family was so angry that we decided to go it alone. You don't know how difficult our life is. It would be great if we could have such a devil to relieve our anger. It’s not the same with her head covered.”
While these Ming pirates were talking nonsense together, a wanderer from the island country who was guarding the cabin came over with a smile.
"Liu Sang, Zhao Sang, we are all brothers on the same ship. If you also want to spend the night with me kanayi (home), I will give you a discount, ten coppers. How about it?"
< br>"Maybe you rob the fat sheep this time and let me pick the things first." This island country ronin promoted his kanayi as soon as he opened his mouth, which meant that his wife was not ashamed but proud of it, with a smug look on his face.
Looking at the shameless face of the island nation's ronin, several Ming pirates despised the ronin. These barbarians were so shameless!
Then, with contempt, many pirates agreed that it would be a long journey, and it would be nice to listen to the screams of the Japanese.
The pirates hanging far behind the fleet looked happy. (End of chapter)
