For Sheng Changquan, being foolproof is what he must do.
"Lang Jun, what I said is indeed true!"
Uncle Wang rarely stopped being polite to Sheng Changquan. He raised his head, squinted his eyes, and said solemnly on his old face: "Mr. Lang, on the Han River, besides those water bandits, there are actually There is a big force."
"Speaking of which, their strength may not be as strong as that of the entire water bandits, but that refers to the sum of all the water bandits!"
"If we really talk about the power of a single gang, they are the undisputed and most powerful one!"
At this point, Uncle Wang's voice began to become a little ethereal and illusory, as if there was some unspeakable and unknown emotion in his words.
It means a kind of admiration or yearning. In short, it is a bit unpredictable.
"oh?"
Sheng Changquan noticed this, but didn't take it to heart. At this moment, what he was most concerned about was the force that could help them. Which one was it?
This involves the person Sheng Changquan cares about the most. Naturally, he thinks about it deeply and never forgets it.
"Uncle Wang, I wonder what kind of influence these people you are talking about are from?"
"Who are they?"
Sheng Changquan asked doubtfully.
At this time, he had a trace of doubt on his face and was very puzzled.
Because he really couldn't think of anyone else on the unregulated Han River who could have such a big name and be able to withstand the attacks of those water thieves and become the strongest among them. one.
"It's the Caobang!"
Uncle Wang replied in a deep voice.
"Caobang?"
Hearing Uncle Wang say the word "Caogang", Sheng Changquan's expression suddenly changed, as if he had thought of something: "Caogang? Is it the Caogang that has emerged in recent years?"
Sheng Changquan's eyebrows were a little surprised, and he was thinking silently in his heart.
"That's right, it's Caobang!"
Uncle Wang spoke clearly and repeated it again.
"Lang Jun, I'm afraid you don't know about this Cao Gang!"
Seeing the change in Sheng Changquan's expression, Uncle Wang thought he had never heard of this gang, so he shook his head and began to explain.
"If the Caogang is a serious gang, or if they are a chamber of commerce, then that's not a bad idea!"
It was obvious that Uncle Wang looked at Caobang in a different light.
Perhaps, in his eyes, Caobang and Fulai Shipping Company where he worked were similar. The biggest difference may be that the foundations of the two parties were different. Caobang had no official background and no endorsement from the court.
"Although the Cao Gang has some fighting and killing incidents, that's what they do when they deal with those bad guys!"
Uncle Wang continued: "If they are a serious family, they will naturally abide by the rules."
"Furthermore, Caobang makes a living by water transportation. Apart from doing fishermen's business during the annual fishing season, they don't do anything else."
"Especially not doing those business without capital!"
Uncle Wang raised his head and glanced at Sheng Changquan, and said pointedly: "So, their Cao Gang is indeed trustworthy."
"That's right!"
Sheng Changquan nodded and did not express his position, just thinking secretly in his heart.
"actually!"
Now that we have reached this point, Uncle Wang will simply talk about it.
"This Cao Gang is really amazing!"
A smile of sincere admiration appeared on Uncle Wang's face. He looked a bit like a star-chasing fan. He touched his beard and continued: "Actually, this Cao Gang is also made up of hard-working people. "
"Most of them are families that have suffered disasters, suffered hardships, and lived miserable lives."
"But, it's precisely because the people there have a hard time, so they are extraordinarily united!"
Uncle Wang changed his voice and continued: "Furthermore, in order to prevent our family from being bullied by others, they all advance together and retreat together, and are united in dealing with the outside world!"
"Sometimes, several villages can even go out together for a small matter. They help each other and support each other. Over time, the people there will naturally form a force."
Uncle Wang told Sheng Changquan the origin of the Cao Gang and explained clearly the nature of their gang.
"However, because in the early years, they never had a leader who could stand up, so they had little reputation and no one could know about it."
"However, more than ten years ago, a capable person appeared there and developed their power from within the village!"
"Later, relying on their own abilities, they finally got ahead and established a firm foothold in the world."
"So, in the end, they simply established their own group and gave their own power a new name - called the Caobang!"
After saying this, Uncle Wang once again turned his attention to Sheng Changquan and said with some helplessness: "So, if we can meet the Cao Gang now and can ask them to take action, then there will definitely be no success on this journey. questionable."
"They have this ability!"
Uncle Wang gave a thumbs up and gave it a thumbs up.
"It's a pity that we can't find them now."
Uncle Wang shook his head, with a look of regret on his face.
"I see!"
Sheng Changquan nodded gently again to express his understanding, but he was thinking about other matters in Caobang.
In fact, Sheng Changquan knew more about the situation in Caobang than what Uncle Wang said.
As far as Sheng Changquan knows, the Caobang first arose in a place in the south of Haizhou, where there are many people and little land, and it is close to the Han River, Longwan and other waters. It is a very near water area, so those of them have relied on the water for generations. , who make a living by fishing.
Uncle Wang said something right, that is, the establishment of the Caobang was indeed more than ten years ago, or in other words, sixteen years ago.
At that time, the Caobang was just established and the flag of the Caobang was raised in the outside world.
Although the predecessor of the Cao Gang was already an extremely great organization, and the current leader of the Cao Gang built the banner of the Cao Gang on the basis of that organization, it is undeniable that this guy is definitely not A simple thing.
The leader of the Cao Gang is surnamed Shi, and his nickname is Shi Qiang. He is a powerful character who dares to fight.
However, there are rumors in the world that although he is brave, his wisdom is not necessarily very profound. The most important reason why Caogang can develop to its current level is his wife's contribution.
It is said that the leader of the Cao Gang is responsible for attacking the enemy on the open road, while the leader's wife is behind the scenes to support them with supplies, organize logistics, and even arrange post-war pensions. In short, except for the battle, she has no hand in almost everything else. It's the gang leader's wife who makes the decision.
Therefore, people all over the world say that the Cao Gang can achieve today's power, at most, the gang leader Shi Qiang can only get four points of credit, but the rest is all due to his wife, Hu Sanniang.
"Mr. Lang!"
"Mr. Lang!"
Just as Sheng Changquan was recalling the Caogang incident, Uncle Wang's voice suddenly rang out, interrupting his meditation.
"Lang Jun, look!"
"It seems like someone is coming over there!"
There was a trace of nervousness in Uncle Wang's voice, as if he was afraid that someone would attack their ship again.
"Um?"
Hearing this, Sheng Changquan quickly turned around and looked in the direction Uncle Wang pointed from a distance.
A long time had passed since the previous sneak attack battle, and it was almost dawn now. Therefore, with Sheng Changquan's keen eyesight, he could see the movement in the distance.
"That is?"
Sheng Changquan's outstanding spiritual sense once again made a contribution at this time. Even if the whistles on the ship looked hard, they could not clearly see what the movements on the other side were.
In other words, I can't see clearly who is over there.
However, the blurry scenes in the eyes of the whistlers were clearly visible in Sheng Changquan's sight.
Standing on the deck, Sheng Changquan saw the fleet of cargo ships and the "cao" flag flapping in the strong wind.
"Is that Cao Bang's fleet?"
Sheng Changquan looked a little strange. He thought it was such a coincidence that Caobang appeared at this time. He and others had just mentioned Caobang and they appeared immediately. This was really speechless.
"Quick! Li Mu!"
"Please take a closer look to see what's going on over there!"
Li Mu was the whistle on the ship, the one with the strongest ability and the best eyesight. At this moment, Uncle Wang was standing next to Sheng Changquan, looking extremely nervous, and kept shouting loudly at Li Mu in the distance.
"Quick, Li Mu, look carefully!"
"Are they from another wave?"
"..."
In fact, it is no wonder that Uncle Wang is so nervous. After all, their fleet just repelled a group of enemies last night. At this time, everyone is inevitably a little exhausted. If another group of enemies are called to attack, then they will definitely Extremely damaging.
As the person in charge of this trip, Uncle Wang was naturally extremely nervous.
"Uncle Wang, this...this..."
"...This...I really can't see clearly!"
Not far away, Li Mu was about to cry without tears. Not to mention that it was just the dawn of dawn, even if it was already noon, he was so far away, so he was not sure he could observe it properly!
Therefore, he really couldn't see clearly what was happening in the distance at this time. Who was it?
Enemy or friend?
"you……"
"Okay, Uncle Wang!"
Sheng Changquan stretched out his hand to stop Uncle Wang's persecution and said softly: "Those people are not enemies!"
"What?"
Uncle Wang was shocked!
"Mr. Lang, can you see clearly?"
There was a hint of surprise on Uncle Wang's face. He never believed that Sheng Changquan was deceiving him at this time, so what he said was definitely true.
"Um!"
Sheng Changquan nodded and said, "What's over there is actually the Cao Gang's fleet."
"It's their merchant ship!"
"ah?"
At this moment, Uncle Wang could no longer maintain the look on his face, his face was full of joy!
"Are you really... the Cao Gang?"
Although he thought so rationally, Uncle Wang still couldn't believe it. He looked at Sheng Changquan and asked again, "Lang Jun, you read that right. Is that the real Caobang team?"
Sheng Changquan knew why Uncle Wang was so happy. He nodded and said, "Not bad, Uncle Wang!"
"That's the Cao gang's team over there. Their lead boat is at the front, and there's a big word 'Cao' on it."
"I think I saw these correctly."
"Yeah!"
"Mr. Lang, you are right!"
"These are indeed the symbols of the Cao Gang, their sailing rules and their flags!"
"That's right! That's right..."
Uncle Wang spoke a little hastily, and even his breathing was a little unsteady!
"Great, if we can meet the Cao Gang this time, then we will definitely be able to survive this disaster!"
Uncle Wang murmured quietly, with a slight flush on his face, looking very excited.
However, Sheng Changquan had reservations about this. He didn't think that the other party would definitely help him and others.
"I'm afraid it's not that simple to convince the other party to help us!"
Sheng Changquan looked at Uncle Wang's reaction at this time and murmured secretly in his heart.
In fact, Sheng Changquan had a reason for his speculation.
After all, no matter how kind the Cao Gang is, no matter how good their reputation is in the outside world, they are still a gang that can stand firm in the world.
I wonder if there is any tiger in the world that doesn't eat meat. Therefore, Sheng Changquan dares to say that the other party will definitely not be a good person. If he wants the other party to help him and others avoid this difficulty, he will definitely have to bleed a lot.
Even the other party may not agree.
After all, let alone whether the two were on the same road, going to Bianjing City together, it was not certain whether they wanted to get involved in the battle between the passerby and the sitting tiger!
Therefore, Sheng Changquan did not have much hope in this regard.
However, no matter what, the emergence of Caobang still has some benefits. At the very least, it can provide some help and inspire people.
…
Because he met Caobang's fleet, Uncle Wang immediately ordered the rudder to be turned, asking the sailors to turn and steer the ship towards the other side.
When the Cao Gang on the opposite side saw this kind of behavior here, they naturally began to be alert, carefully paying attention to the movements here, and preparing to stop quietly.
Although no one believes that these two painted boats will attack the Cao Gang's fleet, there is no mistake in being cautious. For a gang like the Cao Gang that has been struggling all the way, they will always be extremely careful. .
So, when the two fleets were only a mile or two apart, both sides stopped with a tacit understanding and communicated with each other in flags.
However, just as the two fleets were communicating with each other, the expressions of Master Sheng Changquan and his servant suddenly became strange.
It seemed that something impossible had happened.
The two of them, Sheng Changquan and Xu Changqing, suddenly saw an acquaintance, or in other words, two acquaintances on the opposite boat.
"Huh? That's... Gu Tingye?"
"Stoneman?"
Sheng Changquan and Xu Changqing shouted out in unison.
At the same time, the two people opposite seemed to have heard the call and turned their attention to Sheng Changquan.
