"Aren't you afraid of death? This is on Snake Island. Neither the Eastern Japanese nor the Westerners will let you go?" Seeing Jiang Zhuying's spear tip approaching him, Chen Chong's face changed.

"Actually, Gang Master Chen, I think it's good to be a pirate in your life. You have no home and no one controls you. You are like a prince on the Yellow Sea. You are connected to the East and the West, and you are in the West, and you are all in your hands. You can get along with thousands of dollars. Your reputation is spread..." Lei Dongfeng suddenly said slowly.

"Stop!" Chen Chong shouted softly and said angrily.

"Why, am I wrong? This not only can protect the island's safety, but also make money and be beautiful in both worlds? Anyway, you are not considered a Han Chinese now, so even the Japanese in the East may be Westerners, right?" Lei Dongfeng said with a smile.

"Let me know, I am a Han person, born from the Han family, and die from the Han family!" Chen Chong turned around suddenly and wanted to pounce on Lei Dongfeng.

Jiang Zhuying gently pulled the spear in his hand at the bend of his knee. Chen Chong's feet were still strong.

Jiang Zhuying pulled again and pointed it straight on the numb tendons on his legs. Even though Chen Chong was as steady as a mountain, he felt his feet soft and he fell to the ground with a bang.

"What? I think I was wrong? Chen Qinghou, with your name so heroic, I think you can be the hero who will be the world in the future? But I think you are so slow now. If you really want to be the hero who leaves and laughs and prides all over the world, learn to be a human being first!" Lei Dongfeng looked at Chen Chong, whose face was a little distorted in the dust.

"You! OK, what do you want me to do?" Chen Chong's eyes were short of breath and his face turned red, but the anger in his eyes slowly faded away.

"Gangmaster Chen, Brother Qinghou, since you are using the horse spear of the imperial family, you are also a pillar of the empire. I don't know what you and your family have suffered, but since you are dissatisfied with the Eastern Japanese and the coalition forces, and still miss the empire, it means you are still a dignified man. In this case, why can't you help the empire to restore the Yellow Sea?" Lei Dongfeng suddenly sat on the land, leaned over to Chen Chong, and his tone was no longer as contempt as before.

"Imperial? Is there anyone in the Empire who really fights against the enemy? Only Lei Dongfeng and Kuanglan Army are still heroes, but unfortunately they are thousands of miles away. Why do I believe you?" Chen Chong said disdainfully, but his eyes at Lei Dongfeng were no longer as hatred as he looked at Lei Dongfeng.

"Haha." Lei Dongfeng suddenly laughed. He really found it without any effort to find it. It turned out that Chen Chong was still his supporter?

"Get up first!" Lei Dongfeng stretched out his big hand.

Chen Chong hesitated for a while and stretched out his arm.

The two hands were tightly held together, Lei Dongfeng pulled it gently, and Chen Chong pulled it up.

~~~~~~~~

On May 2, 999, the southeast of the Empire's Yellow Sea area, Snake Island.

In the cave of the Haiser Gang leader's hall, the Haiser Gang leader Huang Yishan, the deputy gang leader He Guangting, Chen Chong and the main pirate leaders gathered together to discuss cooperation with the Eastern Japanese and deal with the upcoming revenge of the Western coalition.

"Qinghou, can the Eastern Japanese have any arrangements for the attack of the Westerners?" Huang Yishan asked Chen Chong.

"Their plan is to introduce the enemy into the sea of ​​death and finally annihilate it so that the Westerners will no longer dare to come." Chen Chong said.

"Annihilation? The Eastern Japanese were so angry. Are they a child when they were the coalition forces?" He Guangting sarcastically said.

"Although Westerners may not know about this place, it is dozens of nautical miles away from our Snake Island. Who can use bait to lead them away? This is a matter of nine out of ten deaths." Huang Yishan ignored He Guangting's complaint and frowned.

"We should act as bait ourselves, where can we fight the annihilation battle?" Chen Chong glanced at everyone in the cave. Suddenly everyone turned their heads away.

"As it turns out, I want to use us as a stick, but I don't agree." He Guangting shouted, and the rest of the people in the cave also started to shout.

"We just need to deliberately attack when the coalition fleet arrives, and then quickly escape towards the death sea and lead them over." Chen Chong said.

"Did you agree to them by Qinghou?" Huang Yishan suddenly understood something and said in surprise.

"Hmph, someone met with the Eastern Japanese envoy yesterday, calling it the first warrior of the Sea Snake Gang to compete, but I don't know what conspiracy was reached?" He Guangting said sarcastically.

"I discussed with them. The result of the discussion was that I led the Western Alliance into the Death Sea. Since you don't agree with Gang He, then please lead them to the Death Sea on my behalf!" Chen Chong said.

"Who promised someone else to go!" He Guangting's face changed and he hurriedly said.

"Then don't talk nonsense!" Chen Chong said disdainfully.

"You!" He Guangting was so angry that he stopped talking.

"Qinghou, you have to think about it. Going to the Death Sea can indeed solve the Westerners, but can the heavy fog and dynasty of the Death Sea just annihilate the Western fleet? Don't be harmed by the Westerners again!" Huang Yishan pondered.

"They have promised to place the main troops there, but they need the elder brother to lead the rest to ambush there and assist them in the battle, and they will be responsible for the rest." Chen Chong said.

"What, do you want us to be cannon fodder?" He Guangting couldn't help but interrupt.

"Okay, we always have to do something. Guangting, when war begins, you guard the island, Qinghou, you are responsible for ambushing in the sea of ​​death. As for the matter of the Yin* coalition, let me come in person." Huang Yishan slapped the table.

"Gangmaster, I'll be the bait!" Chen Chong said hurriedly with emotion.

"No need to say more. I haven't been in the battle for so many years. It's time to move this old bone." Huang Yishan said with a smile.

"Brother, you have to be careful." He Guangting said with concern, but a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.

"What Lei Legion and the others said is indeed right. This guy seems to have collusion with the Westerners..." Chen Chong keenly captured this and said in his heart.

"Qinghou, I am the Lei Dongfeng you mentioned, but I am now in the East China Sea. The specific reason... In short, although a little kid framed me, I still want to do my best for the empire. If the Westerners want to go south without worries, they must first solve the key problem of Snake Island in the rear. Our military strength is weak now, and we can only rely on you, Huanghaitong, to help us. I will not use any national justice to convince you. Since you still have a little passion, I hope you can be worthy of your heart." After Lei Dongfeng pulled Chen Chong up, those words still echoed in Chen Chong's ears.

"Of course I don't want to be the lackey of the Westerners and the Eastern Japanese, but there are only more than a thousand pirates who can fight on Snake Island, but my brothers are not greedy and afraid of death. But there are thousands of relatives and elderly people behind me, but I can't give up. If the Lei Legion and Jiang Legion can give a way to defeat the enemy, Qinghou will not be willing to serve."

"The enemy is powerful, what can be used near Snake Island?" Lei Dongfeng pondered.

"Snake Island also has geographical advantages. There are two small islands not far away from the east of Snake Island, called Dagu Mountain and Xiaogu Mountain. The island is also lush with plants and trees, which seem to be calm, but dozens of nautical miles around the island are called the sea of ​​death. The sea area is covered with fog all year round. Whenever a ship enters, it will be difficult to distinguish the direction, and the compass will disappear, and even a sudden storm will descend to destroy the ship. Moreover, the triangular sea area between the Gushan Mountain and our Snake Island is covered with reefs. Even if we don't dare to go there easily, we can lead the enemy to this sea area and take the opportunity to defeat it." Chen Chong said seriously.

"Well, this kind of place is indeed suitable for setting up ambush, but it can only temporarily disrupt the morale of the people, but it cannot hurt the root cause. If you want to eat the enemy, you must be more perfectly prepared." Lei Dongfeng frowned and paced back and forth in the cave.

A gust of mountain wind suddenly blew in the cave, swaying the oil lamps on the walls.

Lei Dongfeng looked at the swaying turbulent lamp and had a few sudden enlightenment in his heart.

"Sulf oil lamp... sulf oil lamp... By the way, Qinghou, where did you get the sulf oil used for your lighting? You can't rely on business travelers to provide it? Are there sulf oil mines nearby?" Lei Dongfeng asked, and he suddenly heard that there was a large oil field in this sea area in later generations, which is what the empire called.

"That is, there is a small tincture oil mine on our Snake Island, with extremely high oil output." Chen Chong said.

"It seems that this turbulent oil mine is part of the extension of the offshore oil fields in later generations. Although it is not many, it is enough to defeat the enemy." Thinking of this, Lei Dongfeng was confused and ordered Chen Chong.

The plan of several people was also proposed by Chen Chong's mouth at the Haiser Gang meeting on that day, and finally received Huang Yishan's approval.

As for the so-called Eastern Japanese army that came later, it was fictional. However, since Lei Dongfeng dared to set up an ambush in the sea of ​​death, Chen Chong could only admire him and did not tell him about Huang Yishan and others. Chen Chong even took the initiative to give his confidants to Lei Dongfeng to command, but Lei Dongfeng arranged them on the Snake Island to deal with the enemies who landed on the island.

~~~~~~~~~~

"This ambush is the first naval battle we have been waiting for. It is very dangerous. According to what Chen Qinghou said, the sea of ​​death is a place where there are some inexplicable phenomena. So I hope that Brother Dao, you will stay on Snake Island. Zhu Ying and I can use the Ice Jade Iron Armored Battleship to lead twenty sailors to set up an ambush." ​​Lei Dongfeng said to everyone.

"No, you must not make any mistakes if you don't belong now. And as soon as the matter is over here, you will still rush back to the Kuanglan Army." Xu Huanzong shook his head and said.

"Haha, if our army is in hand now, I can't go. Now we are short of soldiers and generals. If I retreat, why should Chen Qinghou support us?" Lei Dongfeng shook his head and said.

"Brother." Jiang Zhu's handsome face turned slightly red, and everyone was also depressed. At this moment, everyone admired Lei Dongfeng's responsibility and felt sad that they could not help him.

"Okay, I have figured out the so-called death sea. Don't worry, I will definitely be able to return safely. The task of staying behind is not easy at that time. Once the Westerners reach 6, the remaining pirates must hold them back, at least they cannot withdraw their troops to rescue the sea. So this task is also very heavy." Lei Dongfeng smiled.

"Well, follow my elder brother's instructions and I will accompany my elder brother to the sea of ​​death. I will rely on Brother Dao to take charge of the overall situation here." Jiang Zhuying made up his mind and said.

"Brother Lei, please bring me with you!" Guan Nubai suddenly said.

"No, Jiang Legion and I are both going to the Death Sea. The general needs to be in charge here. Qingce and Bingyu should try their best to assist Brother Dao. Luo Lan and Yu Feng should do a good job in monitoring and logistics of the Sea Snake Gang, especially beware of Nahe Guangting, in case he really brings the Westerners into the depths of the island." Lei Dongfeng ordered.

"Brother Lei, I have heard of the Death Sea, and I want to see it." Li Ruoxi said seriously.
