When the moon outside the lounge window began to climb up to the sky little by little, the tightly closed door was opened by the guards outside with a creak.
A servant in a luxurious dress stood quietly at the door. He put one hand on his chest, bent down, and invited Qin Hao: "General, the dinner is ready, please follow me."
Finally here!
Qin Hao sighed, nodded calmly in return, and then followed him out of the room. Wang Jiu and Nord guards behind him also wanted to follow him out, but were blocked by the Spanish soldiers at the door.
After seeing this, the attendant told Qin Hao with an apologetic face: "Sorry, Lord Carinio only invited you, your attendant may not be able to go."
Looking at his apologetic face, Qin Hao disdained him. He saw clearly the disapproving sneer he showed when he turned back just now.
Hypocritical guy!
"Since you are not included in the dinner, you don't have to go." Qin Hao ordered Wang Jiu and the other two coldly. The seemingly indifferent tone was actually dissatisfied with the Spaniards in front of him.
Now they are going to be separated, and they don't even cover up. Let's see what tricks you are playing.
With the guidance of the attendant, Qin Hao soon arrived at the banquet hall. The location of this banquet was very special. It was not indoors as he thought, but outdoors, an open-air balcony outside the pavilion.
Standing here, you can clearly see the waves hitting the beach, and you can also smell the faint tobacco fragrance emanating from the entire island.
This is a good banquet venue!
"Oh, dear general, welcome." Carinio, who had been waiting for a long time, saw Qin Hao and immediately stood up to greet him.
"You're welcome." Qin Hao followed the instructions and sat down opposite him naturally.
The long table was already full of food, sliced bread, various seasonal vegetables, sauces, and some ham slices, a typical Western style. Of course, the most indispensable thing is fine wine. The red and purple wine in the emerald green glass is so charming.
If you don't know that the person sitting opposite is hiding murderous intentions, this will definitely be a satisfying dinner.
"General, please enjoy it at your leisure." Carinio said with a cigar in his mouth.
His appearance reminded Qin Hao of British Prime Minister Churchill during World War II, the guy who was also bloated and liked to show off with a cigar in his mouth.
"Well, thank you for the hospitality." Qin Hao naturally used his fork in the left hand and knife in the right hand, skillfully chopped a piece of meat on his plate, and then slowly put it into his mouth to taste it carefully.
"This is..." Qin Hao was a little surprised when he ate the piece of meat. He didn't expect that there would be beef at this banquet. He was an absolute loyal lover of beef. After the bandits were wiped out, he seized a lot of cattle. He wanted to drink and eat meat with the soldiers, but was dissuaded by Zhuge Xuan who had just arrived.
In this era, cattle are an important farming tool. The labor of a cow is equivalent to that of 5 or 6 people. In the Ming Dynasty, if the people kill cattle without authorization, they will be put in jail. Even if the cattle died of illness or old age, they must report to the government first and get permission before they can be slaughtered.
Qin Hao didn't expect to eat it tonight, and he didn't say anything polite to him. He ate one bite after another, and drank two sips of wine to quench his thirst when he was thirsty. He looked like a hungry man in the countryside.
Shaking the goblet in his hand, Carinio smelled the fragrant aroma from the cup and looked at the young general with interest. Even if he looked like this now, he would not despise him.
He knew that the Ming people used chopsticks to eat, but tonight he had a little trick. He didn't ask the servants to prepare them, but prepared knives and forks. He didn't expect that he was so skilled in using them, which surprised him a little.
"But it's also expected." Carinio smiled and took a sip of wine, "I have to take him down tonight no matter what."
Qin Hao ate with relish and quickly swept away the food in front of him, "Sir Carinio, tonight's dinner is very good."
After saying that, he stood up and planned to leave. He had just taken two steps when he was blocked by the soldiers standing guard at the door. Qin Hao looked back at Carinio and saw that he was unusually calm, tasting the wine, and acting in a proper manner.
The meaning was already very clear, he couldn't leave tonight.
"What do you mean, sir?" Qin Hao sat down again with a helpless look on his face, and then deliberately controlled himself to tremble slightly, showing timidity.
Seeing him like this, Carinio smiled knowingly. Everything he did before was to give him a warning, and now the purpose has been achieved.
The current scene can be roughly described as he is a soaring eagle, and he is a trembling field mouse, who can only let himself be manipulated.
So he slowly said: "General, I wonder if you and your soldiers are interested in serving our Spanish Empire."
"How to serve?"
"Helping us eliminate the surrounding natives, this is not a difficult problem for you, right?" Carinio stared at Qin Hao's face, as if he saw through his soul.
"Of course, this is very simple. Of course I am willing to serve you." Qin Hao agreed flatteringly.
In fact, even if Carinio didn't mention it, after this incident, he would also deal with the mountain clans and figure out how these Fuso people appeared here on a large scale.
"In this case, please give an order tomorrow, let your soldiers obey Amorim's order and go to eliminate the natives together. What do you think of this idea?"
"Eh..." Qin Hao's face showed an embarrassment for a moment, then he slowly stood up and walked towards Carinio.
When he walked up to him, he changed his previous worried look, and his eyes gradually became indifferent, "I think this suggestion is very bad?"
Carinio sat on the chair, looking at Qin Hao approaching, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, and shouted loudly: "Stop, don't get closer!"
He couldn't believe that Qin Hao actually took action, and was stunned for a moment. When he reacted, he hurriedly issued an order to the soldiers on guard: "Catch him!"
But it was too late, Qin Hao had already walked behind him, rudely snatched the wine glass in his hand, and smashed it hard against the corner of the table, and the front end of the high-footed glass was immediately shattered, and the back end also showed a rugged sharp mouth.
Qin Hao suddenly pulled Carinio up, and then mercilessly put the sharp mouth against his neck and stabbed it hard.
"Ah, no."
Carinio felt the blood gushing out of his throat slowly flowing through his neck and into his chest. He struggled desperately in fear, but Qin Hao's hand clamped him tightly and he couldn't move at all.
How could he be so strong!
"Hahaha, it seems that our commander is also afraid of death?" Qin Hao sneered evilly.
Hearing his words, Carinio wanted to slap him in the face. Who is not afraid of death? Unfortunately, he can't do it now.
The soldiers on guard ran over, and the flintlocks that were supposed to be raised as planned were also hanging down at a loss.
No one except Qin Hao expected the current scene. Carinio thought it would be a simple banquet, and then because of a disagreement with the young general of the Ming Dynasty, he would send him to see God in his incredible eyes.
But he didn't expect him to move so quickly and so cruelly, which was not mature enough for his age!
Carinio admitted that he was careless. He thought Qin Hao was just like Amorim. Even though he had strength and vision, he was just a fool due to his age.
He regretted it so much!
