"Mr. Cai is older than me; if he holds me in esteem, he need only call me Tianbao."
With a bow, Cai Qian didn't decline, "Tianbao is so straightforward, how can I not agree? 'Mr. Cai' also sounds too formal, so how about you call me Big Brother Cai?"
"Ha, then I shall respectfully comply,"
Li Yan smiled and first scanned the hall below, where several top leaders of the Red Flag Gang sat. Then he glanced at Cai Qian, who stood alone, with his guards waiting at the pier, and went on:
"However, the words Big Brother Cai just now were quite alarmist."
Li Yan paused: "The British only have several dozen large ships and a few thousand men in the South Seas, and although their ships are sturdy and their cannons formidable, it won't be so easy to eradicate Zhang He, who has been entrenched in An Nan for so long."
"A few thousand isn't enough? When Clive led his troops to land on the Ganges, they captured Bengal in one fell swoop, and they only had a mere nine hundred men."
