Chapter 139 Diana Mendoza
The latest chapter of the trial begins.
The person who was lifted up was a strong man in his thirties, with a dark face and rough hands and feet. At first glance, he looked like an old seal dog who had spent many years at sea making a living. Based on his clothes and the money he carries with him, he should be a leader-level figure.
As soon as I asked this strong man where he was from, he started shouting: "Sooner or later, the bosses of the crazy gangsters will deal with you."
Seeing Dugu proposing while sharpening his knife, the man sneered.
"Anyone with a knife, a whip, or a branding iron comes to greet me. If I frown, I am not a good man among the bosses."
Dugu was furious and picked up an electric baton.
"Not busy." Ran Yao stopped Dugu and slowly opened the notebook:
"Name"
"You don't change your name when you're working, and you don't change your surname when you sit down. This is Han Yiping."
"gender"
“Where is my hometown?”
"A few relatives"
"The first time I became a pirate"
“Have been working for several years”
"What's the name of your gang leader?"
"What's your boss's name?"
“Where is my hometown?”
"gender"
"The first time I became a pirate"
"The first time I became a pirate"
"The name of your gang leader"
"gender"
"The first time I became a pirate"
“Where is my hometown?”
"You said you are from Nan'an, Fujian"
"You clearly said you were from Minhou, Fujian, the first seven times."
"Where is it from?"
"What's the name of your gang leader?"
"explain"
"Turn on the lights"
"Say your name"
After four hours of non-stop car battle, Han Yiping's mouth was pried open. When he answered "Who is your gang leader" for the 25th time, he finally said the name of "Liu Xiang". Read the full text.
After being caught with this problem, he still tried to deny it, but under the continuous bombardment, he finally suffered a complete mental breakdown.
Once a person gives in and confesses, he will tell all the facts. Han Yiping quickly told everything he knew.
In terms of rank, he is just a "share" in Liu Xiang's gang, a "shopkeeper", not a direct descendant of Liu Xiang, but because his subordinates are particularly good at fighting, they always have troubles every time they clash with the army and other pirate gangs. It was very powerful, so he looked at it differently. In this operation, Liu Xiang's commander-in-chief was a woman.
"woman"
"A ghost girl." Han Yiping gestured, saying that this woman was well-known among various maritime groups. She owned a Western-style clipper ship. She always acted alone, was ruthless and scheming. It has a close relationship with the Franco people in Macau. She used to work under Zheng Zhilong and was very respected for a time, but then she suddenly stopped working for more than half a year.
The Liu Xiang Group had received the news that the time-travelers were occupying Lingao as early as October. However, Lingao was not a profitable place and it was traditionally the territory of Zhu Cai Lao. Liu Xiang had no interest in them.
The people who suggested seizing the Clippers were indeed people from Zhu Cai's old group. When they defected to the new leader, they told all of this, including the news brought back by Shi Shishi.
Zhu Cai Lao did have the intention to cooperate with the time-travelers. It was for this reason that Liu Xiang staged such a show, trying to kill two birds with one stone, that is, to seize the "Iron Clipper" and make it impossible for Zhu Cai Lao to cooperate with the time-travelers. Group cooperates. To this end, he not only recruited a large number of scattered bandits who did not know their true identity in the name of Zhu Cai Lao, but also sent some pirates who had been under Zhu Cai Lao to participate in the operation.
"Isn't Liu Xiang afraid that you people will confess after being captured?"
"I'm just saying that in case of being captured, the person who insists that it is Mr. Zhu Cai is the one. Mr. Zhu Cai has a close relationship with you, you must believe it." Han Yiping replied listlessly, "And there are not many people here who really know Gang Leader Liu. "
"What happened to that big Western ship?"
"I don't know about that either. Our contact with the big Western ships is all through that ghost girl."
"What's her name?"
"My name is Li Shiya"
Ran Yao frowned and remembered something. He had a very good memory and immediately thought that this person should be the woman who kidnapped Mr. Wen back then.
"He has curly black hair and slightly brown eyes."
"Yes, yes, this ghost girl is quite beautiful-" Pirate Han swallowed.
Yes, it must be her. Ran Yao thought, this world is really small. However, no women were seen among the corpses or prisoners.
"Where is she?"
"She probably escaped on the big Western ship. This ghost girl is very clever."
Ran Yao asked a lot more information about Liu Xiang Group's strength, base area, and the names of its main leaders. Han Yiping answered them all accurately. There were some things he didn't know and couldn't tell. Ran Yao didn't Forcibly, according to his experience, there was only so much that Han Yiping could squeeze out of him.
I interrogated a few more people, but there was nothing interesting about them. I started to interrogate several Asans again, and they were all gibbering without knowing what to say. Then I thought that since I was working for Spanish people, I should be able to speak Spanish, so I quickly found someone who knew Spanish to be my translator.
"No one understands Spanish." Xiao Zishan gave an answer after checking the personnel files.
"No way, we will have to deal with the Spaniards in the future."
"There are people here who understand English, French, Japanese, German, Italian, Russian and Korean. By the way, they even understand Latin, but no one understands Spanish."
"Isn't this nonsense? There are even people who understand Korean. It doesn't matter if no one understands Spanish as a second foreign language."
"Really not, I can't even search for the Spanish word here."
"What should I do?" Ran Yao put down the phone and said helplessly. When Dugu proposed, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he remembered the hot Latin girl on the North American yacht during the day. I heard from the Qian brothers that he seemed to be of Venezuelan origin. There are only two impressions of Venezuela from Dugu Proposal: one is the beauty pageant girl, and the other is Chavez who is often in the news.
"All Latin American countries speak Spanish"
"Yes, there are also people who speak Portuguese -" Ran Yao also thought about it at this time: isn't there a Venezuelan-American woman with temporary ID number 008?
He picked up the phone and called Xiao Zishan: "I request to transfer someone here. Please complete the procedures as soon as possible."
"Who knows Spanish?"
"Diana Mendoza."
Diana Mendoza always thought that she was the unluckiest person, and Zhou Weisen always boasted that she was seduced by his charm. In fact, Diana was just drunk in the bar in Hawaii, hoping to take a free yacht to enjoy the sea breeze. Unexpectedly, she was kidnapped by these Chinese people. Not only was she kidnapped, but after struggling for more than half a month, she actually came to a wild place and was told that it was the 17th century.
Of course, Diana Mendoza didn't believe his lies. After giving the nonsense doctor a few slaps, she rushed into the cab. The GPS, radar and maritime satellite phone that she was originally forbidden to touch were left to her to fiddle with. It was obvious that she could not get any desired results.
After a long period of tossing and crying, she was finally exhausted, and the Qian brother's wife gradually made her realize her situation clearly - without Zhou Weisen, she would not even be able to eat. Diana Mendoza, like all women in similar circumstances, was completely resigned to her fate. Zhou Weisen was naturally unceremonious, taking advantage of the beauty's fear of being helpless in a strange environment, and easily turned Diana Mendoza into his own woman.
For the executive committee, it is gratifying that Zhou Weisen's feelings and problems can be resolved, but Xiao Zishan really can't think of the use of this Latin girl who studies English language and literature - she can't speak Chinese at all, so Xiao Zishan has no choice but to She was included in the list of "dependents", and only the children brought by a few time-travelers enjoyed this treatment. This time the Spanish translation was done to the best of my ability. She speaks both English and Spanish very well.
Seeing this tall, beautiful, mixed-race Indo-European beauty appear in the office, several men couldn't help but have their eyes light up - no wonder people say that Venezuela is a country of beauties, it is simply a mixture of the advantages of three different races: yellow, white and black. Born beauty - Zhou Weisen, you are too beastly
The problem is that although her Chinese has improved greatly in recent months and she can carry on simple daily conversations, she still cannot make complex explanations, so she has to be equipped with an English translator.
It turns out that Asan's Spanish is a tragedy. Even Diana Mendoza doesn't know why they speak Spanish. After a long time of tossing, it finally became clear that they were sailors who were captured by a Spanish count named Sidonia in Manila. They didn't know the others who were recruited by me, and they couldn't even tell where they were now.
"What use is Ah San to us?" Dugu asked. According to his opinion, he would have to chop off the heads of a few pirates to coerce him.
"Let's make curry. I actually like to eat it." Ran Yao said, "If they are sailors, it will always be useful."
The last person to go to court was the Spaniard. The two Spanish prisoners almost couldn't close their mouths when they saw that in addition to a few Orientals, there was a beautiful compatriot who could speak Spanish in the room.
Two Spaniards were recruited on board the ship in Manila, one a sailor and the other a common soldier. They came from the Viceroyalty of Barnabas in Spanish America and came to try their luck in the Viceroyalty of the Philippines.
From their mouths, Ran Yao finally learned how the Spanish galleon joined the battle. Also learned the name of the commander: Aragones Sidonia. He was a Spanish "gentleman" who was assigned to recruit and command a Spanish galleon to go to the coast of China to trade or plunder, and if possible, try to gain a trading foothold with the help of local Chinese pirates.
Aragones himself could not afford to equip such an expedition, so this expedition was similar to launching a joint-stock company. The Spanish Governor of Manila and some officials and manor owners were the investors, and they were responsible for the equipment, recruitment of personnel, and purchase of materials and weapons for the galleons. divided among them on a share basis. Aragones Sidonia, as commander, enjoyed one-fifth of the total proceeds. If he can secure a coastal stronghold, he will receive an additional bonus.
As for all the soldiers and sailors who participated in the expedition, they did not receive military pay or wages, but they collectively enjoyed one-fifth of the total income - distributed according to grade.
"This is a fucking robbery gang." Dugu said angrily after hearing the proposal, "Ask how many Chinese ships they robbed and how many Chinese people they killed."
Ran Yao was not interested in this, he was more concerned about the strength of the ship.
According to his confession, there were 400 people in the company of the Countess of Scarborough, including soldiers, sailors, doctors, gunners, craftsmen, and servants: some of them were Spanish, Portuguese, Italians, Chinese, Indians, and blacks. and mixed race, the others were all Malay natives recruited locally.
It's really international. No wonder Yu E Shui said that sailors in this era are a collection of scum from all ethnic groups. In addition to this bizarre group of people, the Countess of Scarborough also brought a lot of supplies, including commodities for trade; a large amount of firearms and gunpowder - some of which had been sold to Liu Xiang; and necessary tools for building the castle. and materials. They didn't bring much food and water. They mainly moved along the coastline and could go ashore to replenish at any time. After forming an alliance with the local pirate leader Liu Xianglao, it will be easier to supplement these things. It is said that the next step is to fight a Chinese pirate named "Yi Guan". ,.
