"I never thought that old man would fly my flag, while secretly reaching out to several groups of pirates, planning to raid the coast as soon as my men arrived at Zhoushan, launching simultaneous attacks on Shuangyu and Jiading."
"I, Wang, just found out about this, and was about to confront that old man, when I received word that he'd already been slain by Yang Erlang... Yang Erlang did well, such a heartless, treacherous, and inhuman official deserved to be put down with a single stroke of the blade!"
After Wang Zeng said this, Yang Ge now remembered the pirate he had seen at Shanshui Garden's Vast Righteousness Tower when he went to kill Geng Jingzhong.
That was definitely a real Dongying pirate, his appearance, accent, and the sense of alienation he exuded, all served as proof of his pure Dongying descent.
If Geng Jingzhong's connections were to Wei people disguised as pirates, like Wang Zeng here.
