[Revised: There are two Ming ships in the dock, so two were captured, not three.]

When the lieutenant colonel cried and reported the bad news that the attack on Onda Port and the robbery of the treasure ship, Colonel Thiago sat on the chair, and was all there.

"Who did it?" Cuba Governor Vilva was also right. Onda base is his defense area, and he could not escape the blame for the robbery of the treasure ship.

"It was a group of unidentified pirates. Their sails were black. They slipped into Onda Bay while the wind was strong last night." Lieutenant Colonel Thiago choked and said, "I saw only two Garen ships of five or six hundred tons, and a super large sailboat."

Thiago and Vilva suddenly looked at each other, and at the same time thought of the three Ming sailboats that escaped!

Isn’t it a giant ship of one or two thousand tons and two medium-sized Galen ships?

"What are the characteristics of those three ships?" the governor asked hurriedly: "For example, their sailing suits!"

"Oh yes, their sails have a strange shape. Although there are also horizontal sails, they seem to be mainly sails..." Lieutenant Colonel recalled: "Also, the sails of the two Garen ships are black in color."

Because it was night, no one noticed the hand-painted pirate flag of Xiao Zhu...

The colonel and the governor met again, and both saw shock in each other's eyes.

It faced the three Ming Dynasty sailboats again.

"No, it's impossible, how could they know that the treasure ship is in Onda?" the colonel said in difficulty: "Besides, their sails are white."

"It's not difficult to change the color of the sail suit." The Governor Zhongke said: "Maybe they are just as simple as the port closest to Havana to vent their anger. The blind cat has met a dead mouse."

Of course, the last sentence is a free translation of the Spanish word ‘Hasonadolaflauta’, which is literally translated as ‘the whistle is ringing’.

"No, I don't believe it." The colonel rubbed his chaotic brown hair and said, "They came clearly for the treasure ship."

"Yes." Lieutenant Colonel nodded to prove it.

Until the next morning, the colonel had to believe it even if he didn't believe it.

Because Lin Feng sent a messenger to announce his responsibility for the attack on the eve of the past, and demanded that the Spaniards immediately release all the Ming people and two seized sailboats in exchange for the two treasure ships, gold, silver and jewelry worth four million pesos, and the captured Spanish sailors.

"The Spaniards are never threatened!" said the colonel.

"If you fail to meet the above conditions before twelve o'clock today, we will sink the 'Saint Barbara' outside Havana Bay. If you fail to meet the above conditions at 6 o'clock this afternoon, we will sink another 'Saint Mark'!" The letter coming to negotiate said in Chinese and Spanish: "Then we will continue to look for new prey until you learn to exchange."

Colonel Thiago was blushed when he was criticized. This was the first time he had seen someone dare to threaten Spain like this in twenty years!

But with the persuasion of Governor Vilva, he quickly calmed down and his life was in the hands of others. How could he become hard?

To the Governor, those Eastern people are not important at all. Anyway, the deputy king's orders were not given to him. What is important is that His Majesty's treasure ship cannot have any accidents in his own jurisdiction.

Colonel Thiago was confused. The deputy king had to hand in the office, and His Majesty's treasure ship could not be missed. No matter what went wrong, it would be enough for him to drink a pot.

The governor advised him to make an exchange first. When the treasure ship comes back, he will issue a wanted order, so that the entire New Spain Kingdom will work together to encircle these Ming pirates.

And this is not being threatened, but the transaction is obviously beneficial to us, so the fool who makes a big profit will not do it.

"It makes sense..." Colonel Thiago was finally convinced and reluctantly agreed to make an exchange with the Ming people.

But I'm still so angry...

Two hours after the messenger left, the three Ming sails that fled a few days ago reappeared outside Havana Bay. Two scarred Spanish sailboats were following behind.

Colonel Thiago stood on the fortress at the entrance of the bay, and felt his heart broken when he looked at the two broken ships that he was escorting the treasure ships.

"I'm so stupid, really..." Thiago raised his unhappy eyes and murmured: "I just know that the shells were eyeless during the battle, and they might accidentally hurt the treasure ship; but I don't know that the Ming people would come to the door on their own initiative. I'm so stupid, I'm actually separated from the treasure ship. If I had known it, I might as well bring it with me..."

Governor Vilva, who was beside him, hurriedly advised: "Who would have thought that two fully armed sailboats would be easily robbed. They were all accidents. You will not be able to do anything next time you are careful."

As he said that, he waved his hand and the Spanish soldiers opened the station cage, released the Ming prisoners, and asked them to line up to the dock.

Quanzhou and Gaoyou Lake were also dragged out of the dock and stopped next to the dock.

According to the agreement, Spain first released half of the Ming prisoners, and the other party also returned a treasure ship. After Spain counted the gold and silver, the Ming Dynasty checked that the ship was safe, then the next exchange was carried out.

So after the first batch of prisoners boarded the Gaoyou Lake and left, the remaining 180 people had to wait until the afternoon to be released.

The locals came to hear the news and brought wine and food to the Eastern VIPs, just like a hero who gave them away. The girls rushed out of the crowd, kissed and hugged with tears and kissed and hugged the lovers who were about to part, or forever.

One of the handsome monks with a shiny bald head was kissed and hugged by several beautiful and graceful Cuban girls, which made him look helpless and seemed to have a little enjoyment.

"Master, have you broken the precept?" a companion asked quipped.

"It's not true, the little monk does not have that kind of worldly desire." The handsome monk clasped his hands together and said.

"They said you live in a brothel every day and don't pay for it." Everyone came up and said, "We haven't met for more than a month, right? The sisters here don't understand poetry, songs, and can't be said to be the art of communication, right?"

"The communication fluids are almost the same." The sailors laughed strangely.

"Don't talk nonsense, the monk is giving in his body."

"It's up to you what you think." The monk was not embarrassed at all, and he always smiled faintly, holy and mysterious.

"After the rain, the breeze does not pass through the pond, and the willow branches still brush the silk in the mirror. I only share the birds and fishes with them, and only know that the moon at the bottom of the water is bright." He recited a poem gracefully and continued to say goodbye to the girls intimately.

The companions were not aware of the harshness and felt ashamed of themselves. I thought to myself, could we judge others too much and think that Master Xuelang was dirty? Yes, he is a master of Taoism, Master Xuanzang is the second. How could he be so lustful as ordinary monks?

Yes, this slutty monk was fooled by Zhao Hao and was lame. Mian Monk Xuelang.

However, Mr. Zhao was said to promote the religious crisis of China to Xuelang in order to get rid of this annoying spirit. He said that foreign Hinduism, Tianfang Sect and Chezhi Dan Sect have evolved in full, but the local Buddhist and Taoist Sects have failed. If this continues, you will be dead sooner or later.

He also inspired Xuelang with the great deeds of Tang Xuanzang, and advised him to board the ship and join the global sailing, go to the country ruled by the three major religions to experience it personally, and have a good discussion with other clergy, come back and reform Buddhism, overwhelm those three families, and revitalize Chinese religions. Isn’t it more in charge than building a hundred temples?

At that time, there will naturally be believers who build thousands of temples. This is the result of the Buddha... Oh no, there are not many merits?

At that time, Xue Lang was also deeply shocked in the duel with the Jesuits. He felt that he had learned and learned, so after receiving a very long poem from Zhao Hao, he got on the boat with satisfaction.

But he thought he could go back in a few months. Who would never expect that he would leave for two years and he would not return home yet! Do you think this is what people do?

So even monks need some comfort. Besides, comfort may not necessarily be necessary. Anyway, Xuelang has not broken the precepts, so people have a clear conscience!

At five o'clock that afternoon, the Spaniards inspected the second treasure ship, and the Ming crew also inspected the frigate "Quanzhou".

Xue Lang and the second batch of released personnel boarded the Quanzhou, said goodbye to the locals, and slowly left the harbor.

The treasure ship, "San Marco", was also captured by Spanish prisoners and drove into the harbor.

As the back of the St. Mark gradually faded away, the crew members sighed.

Before, they just wanted to exchange their own people back quickly, but they didn't even think about it. Now they realized how much wealth had slipped away from their hands...

"Wipe off your saliva!" But the captain heard their saliva swallowing violently, "These two ships are not out!"

"Ao!" The crew members understood in seconds, and the beast's blood was boiling, and cheers were wave after wave.

"Madam, are the conditions for privateer still valid?" Fleet Police Chief Ge Li asked, gritting the bullet. There is no way, the Police always plays a nasty role.

But he didn't dare to ask Lin Feng, not everyone was scrambling to enjoy the whip.

"Do you think they will give up after suffering such a big loss?" Zhang Xiaojing stroked the railing lightly and glanced at him casually:

"Do you think we have suffered such a big loss, so we should give up?"

"I understand." Director Ge said in his heart that his wife was still Gao. No matter what she wanted to do, she could always convince everyone with great reason.

Once the exchange was completed, the Cuban Governor's Office immediately issued a black wanted order, ordering all ports under its jurisdiction to enter a state of alert, and fire immediately once the Eastern fleet was discovered. All ships must also "fire when they catch the enemy"!

Colonel Thiago also sent a ship to report to Mexico, requesting to arrest the Ming fleet throughout New Spain, and vowing to trap these criminal Oriental villains in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea!

However, a whole month passed, and the Ming fleet, which had recovered to five sizes, was still unknown. The Spanish sent countless reconnaissance ships, but they were not found.

Those Ming people were like evaporated on earth.

This made Colonel Thiago always frightened, but he could not wait any longer, because according to the royal order, all the precious sailboats must be gathered at the port of Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic before June and escorted back to the country by the Atlantic Fleet.

It is the end of May now, and if you don’t set out, you will be delayed...

He had no choice but to discuss with the governor of Cuba, combining the two galleys into one, plus several Calavere sailboats as supply ships, and the brisk Gali galleys as reconnaissance ships, forming a powerful escort force and escorting four treasure ships to Santo Domingo.
