Chapter 49 Not a villain, nor a gentleman!

Because the mud pattern was changed to an iron pattern for casting, a lot of time was delayed. However, after adopting the iron pattern, the preparation process for casting was greatly shortened, which made the craftsmen on the island praise Master Liang's genius creativity, and also made many skeptical pirates look at Master Liang with admiration.

When everyone praised the power of the unconscience cannon, Master Liang could only swallow his teeth and blood and tears. Because of the rush of preparation, the amount of copper oxide produced was not large. Today, it was just to let Shi Xianggu and others see the power of the poor cannon. Liang Pengfei gritted his teeth and used it for a while, but almost used a quarter of the copper oxide produced. How to prevent Master Liang from crying?

Although there have been picric acid and thunder mercury in this era, and thunder mercury can also be found in the dyeing and weaving workshops in Guangzhou, thunder mercury has not spread to the east, which made Liang Pengfei a little discouraged. Otherwise, if sixteen pounds of thunder zha medicine is as complete as such, well... the explosive power of one pound of thunder mercury is equivalent to one hundred pounds of black fire. Thinking about it, Liang Pengfei feels excited.

"My grandma, sooner or later, I will build my own chemical laboratory, zha medicine processing factory and gun factory on this island." Liang Pengfei's evil eyes swept to the Liang Mansion Fortress in the distance, where there was a Spanish princess inside, which was the best bargaining chip for Master Liang to deal with the Kingdom of Spain.

Even if the transaction trick doesn't work, it doesn't matter. Although Young Master Liang is not a villain, he is definitely not a gentleman. In order to achieve what he thinks is justice, even if he cheats, he must satisfy his wishes and goals. However, others think it is evil or despicable, as long as he has a clear conscience.

However, this time the artillery test also added some confidence to Shi Xianggu and others in Liang Pengfei's plan to defend the island. As long as you install a few more such powerful conscience-free cannons in the Crab Leg Gorge, it will definitely cause heavy casualties and injuries to the Western pirates who attacked the canyon.

--------------------

After the test of the artillery, Liang Pengfei generously led Shi Xianggu and others to circle the island, allowing them to see the terrain and landform of Crab King Island and various arrangements. Of course, the shooting range also allowed Shi Xianggu and others to visit. Seeing the pirates on the island in an orderly manner. With the whistle and snare drums, rows of pirates were aimed at their respective targets and fired in an extremely calm manner, and then retreated to the back row to load bullets. The gunshots bombed everyone's eardrums in endless streams.

"Sister, this guy's men trained like this, and they simply wanted to train a hundred battles. Why do I think it's not just to resist those Western pirates?" Shi Dakai expressed his opinion in Shi Xianggu's ears.

Although Shi Xianggu did not answer his brother's question, she couldn't help but be surprised. At least, just looking at the momentum of the pirates in front of her, and their proficiency in calm and quick loading in the sound of gunfire, there was no common play and fighting among pirates. Next to her, there was a group of people who seemed to be military judges. From time to time, they picked out some people from the team, scolded them loudly, and asked them to run around the shooting range with their guns, but no one dared to complain or disobey. The discipline of banning orders was probably inferior to his most elite subordinates. Not to mention pirates, even the army in the court would not carry out live-fire shooting so almost crazy.

"Mr. Liang, you have more than 10,000 people in these two thousand people." Shi Xianggu said to Liang Pengfei beside him. Because the gunshots at the shooting range were interfering, Shi Xianggu had to approach Liang Pengfei to let him hear it clearly, and let this guy smell a calm fragrance of flowers.

"No, but I have only been training for more than ten days. Now it is better than the tumultuous people, and it is far from the real ban." Liang Pengfei sighed, with dissatisfaction on his left face and disdain on his right face, as if there were not a group of well-trained pirates standing here, but a vote of farmers who had just put down their farm work, carried hoes and kitchen knives to gather in the mountains.

Seeing this, Shi Xianggu couldn't help but curl her lips secretly. Does this guy really think he is a famous coach from ancient times?

But in fact, Liang Pengfei was indeed not satisfied. Not only was the caliber size of the pirates' muskets in their hands not consistent, but because the training time was too short, it would definitely reduce the number of people who could aim calmly under the roar of artillery fire when they were on the battlefield.

In addition, the pirates' outfits are extremely strange, just like an exhibition of clothing and clothing in various countries in this era. Some people even wore Western noble dresses on the upper body, and their lower body was short as short as knee bends and their feet were naked.

There was another brother who was even more spoofed. He wore tights like Westerners on his lower body and had a small jacket with open arms on his upper body, which made Liang Pengfei feel funny than the ballet actor. I don’t know how many people laughed. In the end, Master Liang couldn’t stand it and asked Monk Chen to lift the guy aside and let him change his pants again. The guy was actually humming and said that he was wearing this outfit to facilitate the fight. However, in front of Monk Chen’s violent man, there was only one consequence of resistance. He had to run back to change in the gloating eyes of everyone.

"It seems that the problem of centralized and unified dress must be solved, the problem of unified weapons must be solved, the problem of alcoholism, gambling, and fighting cannot be eliminated for the time being. Discipline issues have considerable flaws, and political and ideological education has not been carried out yet..." Master Liang raised his finger and counted while sighing, and he wanted to cultivate his team and strength, and he had to do enough.

After Shi Xianggu and others returned to the front hall with Liang Pengfei, Shi Xianggu agreed to Liang Pengfei's plan, but she also made her own request.

"I agree with your decision, but I have a condition. I want to lead my personal soldiers to defend Crab Island with you. Although I admit that your people are very strong, the problem is that your warships also require manpower. After the fleet was sent out, only more than a thousand people were left to guard Crab Island. Not only did they block Crab Island, but they also had to rely on the terrain to maximize their vitality. I think it is not safe to leave a thousand people alone. I have 500 personal soldiers under my command, all of whom dare to fight and fight to serve the death."

--------------------

"Sister, how is this possible?" Shi Dakai heard Shi Xianggu's words and immediately became anxious and said loudly: "Sister, this is not a joke. Thousands of pirates are coming to Crab Island. Do you still want to stay here?"

"No need to say more. If you say something to my father, he will definitely agree with me." Shi Xianggu turned around and looked at Shi Dakai and said calmly.

Liang Pengfei rolled his eyelids next to him without saying a word. No matter what, he sent Lu Yuan and the fleet to Shi Xianggu to command. Although it was nominal, this represented Liang Pengfei's trust in Shi Xianggu.

Originally, Liang Pengfei thought that even if Shi Xianggu was rewarded, he would at most let her younger brother Shi Dakai stay. But what Liang Pengfei didn't expect was that Shi Xianggu actually proposed to stay.

"Or, just let your brother stay. If you are not here..." Liang Pengfei suggested hypocritically. To be honest, of course he would like Shi Xianggu to stay, not only because Shi Xianggu is the leader of the Shi family fleet, but also because this guy has a lot of vulgar thoughts about Shi Xianggu.

Shi Xianggu shook her head lightly: "Young Master Liang, don't worry. There is definitely no problem with my father in the fleet. If my subordinates are not here, my brother will not be able to suppress it at all."

Shi Da opened his mouth but didn't persuade him. He knew very well about his sister's temperament. Even the nine-headed cows couldn't turn back.

Shi Xianggu turned around and tidied up Shi Da's clothes: "Okay, don't worry, Crab King Island is as solid as a decorative soul under the arrangement of Mr. Liang. Sister is here, and you are blocking outside and attacking on both sides. Then Liu Qiqiao won't want to escape again this time, so Sister can fulfill her wish as soon as possible."
