530 Martyrdom with the Ship

It is said that money is a bastard, but it is really difficult to deal with without money. Since Zhang Juzheng's one-whip method in the Ming Dynasty, even if silver has officially become the new force in currency circulation, the silver standard has continued until the Republic of China.

The history of the silver standard for hundreds of years has made the Chinese silver culture deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and the light of silver has become one of the most touching methods. The silver ingot rain staged today suddenly shocked everyone on the Tanggu wharf.

The large pieces of silver ingots collided with each other and made a pleasant sound. The white and bright silver ingots fell into the sea and caused people to feel regret. Even the French robbers were stunned.

"Oh God... We chased for a long time and were actually chasing a treasure ship? Isn't this a Spanish treasure sailboat? We can all retire and go home by robbing such a treasure ship..."

"God loves us...we can all be gentlemen in Paris, we can finally squeeze into the upper class...rush up and grab the boat..."

Just as the French warship was in full swing, two field artillery guns on the dock of the Special Administrative Region finally opened fire, and the flowering shells whizzed past the Chengfeng, and burst into splashes of water at the bow of the French warship.

"Stop them, even if I give the money to the Dragon Prince for free, I will never give the foreign devils a slight amount..." Liu Lang and Tietou Tuo shouted like crazy.

"Abandon the ship... don't worry about the money... The Prime Minister cares about people, not money... Abandon the ship quickly and jump into the sea..."

Niu Duofu listened to the shouting on the shore and looked at the silver pouring into the sea. His throat was sweet and blood spurted out, "Abandon the ship... Everyone obeyed the order, don't care about the silver, abandon the ship and go, swim over..."

Now Chengfeng is only more than 400 meters away from the pier. This is not a distance for these sailors, but they can't bear to leave it alone. This is a silver ingot of three million taels. No matter how rich the Prime Minister is, he cannot be so cruel...

"Get out... get out of me... this is an order..." Captain Niu roared and kicked a soldier into the sea. "Those who die for money are cowards... Keep a useful body, killing all the evil ghosts in this world is the meaning of your life... Get out..."

Niu Duofu cursed the soldiers on the deck to wake up. Only then did people resist the unwillingness and jumped over and jumped out of the sea to swim towards the pier.

"Captain, why don't you leave?" Some sailors discovered something inappropriate.

"You go first, the captain should be the last one in the shipwreck. This is the rule on the sea... You go, I will be the last one to abandon the ship..."

While shouting, the sound of collapse suddenly sounded inside the cabin. Niu Duofu knew that the hull had been tilted thirty degrees, and the wire mesh and steel cable used to fix silver ingots in the cabin were no longer able to bear it. More silver piles had cracked, and the heavy rain of silver ingots was even more violent.

The Chengfeng has now become an absolute treasure ship. The huge hole on the port side seems to have overturned the treasure pot of the God of Wealth, pouring silver ingots down like a waterfall. The glory of three million taels of silver illuminated the entire bay.

No one knows when the Dagukou Fort will cease fire, but the exclamations on the north and south sides of Haihekou are louder and louder than those on the other side. Xiao Letian's special zone, his foreign business, his new army... All his powerful actions, even the glory of the expedition to Europe, were not as impressive as this ship of silver at this moment.

The treasure is so touching. So much money is pouring into the sea like a sea. I have never seen this spectacular scene in my eight lifetimes. As for you, Xiao Lotte, dominating Europa and forcing France to retreat... It has nothing to do with me.

Look, humans are so pragmatic and not pursuing, remembering to eat but not beating, only profits, and only money is the most primitive in their hearts.

Niu Duofu saw a black look in front of him and quickly grabbed the railing. He was completely desperate. The sound of the steel cable breaking just now could only prove that all the piles of silver ingots in the cabin were broken.

According to his previous thought, even if the ship sinks, the pile of silver ingots tied at the bottom of the cabin is easy to salvage. However, all the steel cables are broken, and the silver ingots fall into the silt at the bottom of the sea in chaos. With the current diving technology, it is a dream to salvage them all.

Looking at the figures jumping into the sea one by one on the deck and watching the brothers swimming in the sea, countless people rushed down the sea to pick them up at the pier in the distance, Niu Duofu finally felt relieved. He looked at the pier in the special zone that was so close to him. He knew that he had to give the Prime Minister an explanation.

"Farewell forever..." Niu Duofu closed his eyes and turned his head to walk into the cabin. Even if he died, she would die in the captain's room.

At this time, water splashed everywhere on the sea. The sailors of the Chengfeng were desperately surfing up the dock. The workers on the dock jumped into the water to meet them. The two groups of people have now joined together.

I saw the black American worker with charcoal-like skin, holding up the tired sailor with one hand and swam back, "It's time for us to be home, we're home now, hold on for a while, God will bless you..."

The blonde and blue-eyed white engineers threw away their suits and rushed into the sea, protecting these heroes who spanned the Pacific Ocean with their bodies. Not to mention the soldiers of the new army and the good people in the special zone, they will not be reluctant to save them.

The docks in the Industrial Special Zone are now in chaos, with the sound of water splashing everywhere on the sea surface. Those who can't water on the shore are working hard to cheer. Two field cannons temporarily transported over are constantly shooting and covering the sailors who escaped from the sea. Various sounds gather together and soar into the sky.

In the chaos, there was a shrill crying sound that was shocking, "Brother... you were foolish... come back..." People turned their heads to search, but they saw a famous celebrity from Tanggu and Niu Zhangguan from Sihai Business on a pile of wooden boxes.

Niu’s shopkeeper is famous for Niu Jinfu, and Niu Duofu is his uncle’s brother. They grew up naked since childhood. This brother knows his brother’s temper too well.

"Please save my brother, save it so blessed... He is a slander and very terrified... He lost so much money from the Prime Minister, he must not want to live anymore... Please save him and save him..."

After Niu Zhang's story, he kowtowed on the wooden board. The group of escaped sailors on the sea realized that their captain had not abandoned the ship at all, there was no him on the sea, and there was no figure on the deck.

"Fuck... brothers, go back to rescue the captain..." The more than forty sailors at the end of the team turned around and swam back, but at this time, more than half of the hull of the Chengfeng had been immersed in the sea.

"Captain, you are so scrupulous... Even if you are guilty of dereliction of duty, you still have to survive to atone for your sins? How can you choose to die with the ship? You are so scrupulous, so scrupulous..."

The sailors cried and swam on the Chengfeng. A group of people kicked open the wooden door of the captain's room with a few bangs. "Captain... brothers are waiting for you, why don't you leave? Are you going to get everyone's hearts cold... Raise him up for me..."

A group of sailors rushed up and grabbed his arms and legs and dragged Niu Duofu out. The man kept crying in his mouth, "The boat is there, the boat is dead, the people are dead... You let me die, I die to shock the people later... This boat is my responsibility, I am guilty..."

Some people later said that Xiao Letian was very obsessed with his stubbornness, and the reason why his career was successful was inseparable from these stubbornness.

The water ghosts who were sacrificing their lives in the country were sacrificing their deceased, and the officers who sneaked into the French positions at night were even more sacrificing, following Xiao Letian's attempt to get involved in the European civil war with three hundred weak troops.

However, no one can deny that it was this group of decisive sacrifices and dedications that pushed Xiao Letian's career to the top and also pushed the great cause of East Asian national rejuvenation to success.

Dozens of sailors surrounded the captain and swam towards the shore. Behind him was the tall Chengfeng slowly sinking, and the gurgling bubbles seemed to be like the sea was already boiling.

The glory of silver had disappeared into the blue sea water, and the brain, which was washed away by wealth, regained its rationality again. The demons on the Dagukou Fort shook their heads and woke up.

"Fuck... are you all blind? If you don't catch such a good opportunity to fire a fire... Fire a fire into the sea and kill the sailors... Hurry up, are you waiting for your whip?"

Many of Meller's confidants were old soldiers from the Eight Banners. They were used to being arrogant and domineering in the Four Nine City. They didn't count the cursing in their mouths, but the whip in their hands began to shake. Looking at these groups of turret guards was like looking at animals.

"Sir..." The garrisons with dark faces were smoked and pointed at the sailors who had escaped from the sea and roared, "Sir, they are all civilian sailors. We have bombed the shipwreck, why do we still have to kill people?"

A crisp sound of "A despicable dog, how do you talk to me when you stare at me? A pariah who is not worth a donkey's money... If you ask you to fire, fire me and kill you..."

The whip was whipping down and the gunner raised his arm to dodge left and right, "How do you hit someone? How do you hit someone..."

"You are the one who beats you, a cheap man. If you catch up with the founding period, you will be a waste of your life... You will not obey military orders, and you will be arguing with me..."

The Eight Banners officer actually wanted to vent his anger. So much money fell into the sea in vain. He was so heartbroken that he was trembling. Now this annoying soldier dares to question his decision. Look, I won’t kill you.

The Qing Dynasty had been in the pass for more than two hundred years. Although the rule of the Manchus was often challenged by rebels and even caused the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, in the northern part of China, the rule of the Manchus was still like an iron barrel, and the despicable Han people had no chance to cause trouble.

So the Eight Banners officers ignored everything. The whip was urgent and cruel, and they focused on the face and neck. When the whip was down, they were a purple one.

It is unbearable. The defenders of Dagukou Fort have long since relaxed Xiao Letian's thoughts. Even Xiao Letian himself could not explain how many detailed works of the punishment hall were there.

Such atrocities can be tolerated at first, but now I can't bear it anymore. A little soldier who seemed to be only ten suddenly jumped up and rushed over like crazy, "Put down your whip... I'm a human, not your beast..."
