Chapter 219: Confrontation with the Orientals

Yue Fei appeared, and Liang Jia felt that it was no longer difficult to exterminate Dong Qixiong's rogue army in Sichuan.

When the spring tax enters Beijing, it's time to go to Sichuan to pay the bill.

Thinking of the spring tax, Liang Jia thought of the money bank, and I don't know how much income this money bank has increased for him during this time.

Although the spring tax into Beijing can alleviate the current financial crisis of the imperial court, it is estimated that the spring tax will not last long with the silver taels spent on the war, and it is still necessary to find a way to raise money.

By the way, Tang Sai'er investigated those who colluded with the White Lotus Sect in Jiangnan, and he didn't know how many silver taels he got from those rich merchants.

found the brocade guard on duty in the palace and asked him to quickly send a message to ask Tang Sai'er.

At the same time, he was also thinking that it was time to get the meat pie over again. Those big businessmen in Jiangnan have a handle to catch, and it is still necessary to eat a few big households. The big businessmen in Jiangnan are all very fat, and few of them are good guys, and Liang Jia eats them rightly.

Tang Sai'er and Invite Yue don't have the decisive ruthlessness of meat, so this kind of thing is most suitable for meat to do.

In Tanggu City, two hundred miles east of the capital, Inoue Ueno, the envoy of the Oriental Kingdom, couldn't help but smile when he looked at the three large ships full of things.

Although I paid a lot this time, I also got a lot. Moreover, he brought back a lot of high-quality men from the Great Liang Country, and the task of improving the country's race could also be carried out well.

"Your Excellency, everything is ready to sail." A short samurai stepped up to report.

Inoue nodded, and was about to step aboard the boat when the rumbling sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded.

Inoueno's face changed, and he hurriedly turned his head to check.

I saw a group of brocade-clothed guards rushing in the distance, and the destination was the wharf.

"Quick! Sail! Inoue was shocked and quickly ran towards the boat while shouting to get out of the boat.

But how can such a big ship be moved so easily. The fast horses of the Jinyi Guard soon arrived, and all the laborers who were carrying them nearby hurriedly dodged away, not daring to hinder this group of wolf-like guys.

The brocade guard rushed to him, and suddenly the two guys flew directly off the horse, grabbed the anchor that had just been pulled up, and then the two of them pushed back at the same time to stop the big ship from moving.

"Inoue Masasano, why are you in such a hurry? My emperor has a will to give you General Jiayuan, don't you take it? Chen Yueqiang got off his horse, held a bright yellow scroll, and shouted loudly.

Inoue no stood at the bow of the boat, his face uncertain.

He could have continued to order the ship to be sailed, for the strength of those two men could not be compared to that of the fifty or sixty men below, but he was not sure what would happen if he really left like this.

But if he didn't leave, the arrival of this large number of brocade guards would definitely be coming for them, and he could guess what the reason was.

If this matter is exposed, what will the emperor of Daliang do? What if they all click?

No, it still can't be stopped.

Inoue Ye made up his mind and did not order the ship to stop, but whispered to the Jinyi guard on the shore and continue to drive the boat.

"Inoue Ueno, are you disobeying the holy decree of His Majesty Emperor Daliang? Come on, arrest the boat. Chen Yueqiang's face sank and he shouted loudly.

Thousands of brocade guards agreed in unison, and the momentum was terrifying, and then countless brocade guards dismounted and waded into the water, and rushed towards the big boat.

Inoue Ye sat on the wax this time, and wanted to be stopped, but he didn't dare to really kill this group of brocade guards who pounced. If you kill it, you really can't leave, and you may lose your head on the spot.

As soon as he hesitated, a large number of brocade guards went directly to the ship, and then they all drew their weapons and rushed into the cabin.

Some of them went below to control the people who drove the boat, and some of them controlled the people above the boat, and Inoue Ye also had four or five long knives on his body.

Inoue smiled bitterly as the ship that had just started a few meters came to shore again, and his mind kept thinking about how to solve the situation.

The three big ships docked again, and all the people were invited off the ship by the Jinyi Guard.

Chen Yueqiang asked people to set up a small table directly on the dock, made a plate of side dishes and a pot of wine, and eagerly invited Inoue Ye to him, and drank wine with him one by one.

However, after the brocade guard had brought everyone ashore, he began a thorough search of the ship's cabin.

Inoue knew that this was over, and the secret could not be kept.

Sure enough, in less than a quarter of an hour, a brocade-clothed guard came up and reported: "My lord, I found a secret room in the mezzanine of the cabin, where twenty-five people from my court were imprisoned. ”

Inoueno's face changed drastically, and he turned his face to look at Chen Yueqiang with a dull expression.

Chen Yueqiang smiled and said with a smile: "Jing Zhengzhi, what do you mean by this?" It seems that there is no population involved in my dealings with your country, right? ”

"That...... Lord Chen, that, the whole country has great respect for the scholars of Daliang, so I am ready to invite a group of scholars to teach culture in our country. ”

"Invite? It doesn't look like an invitation? It's like kidnapping! ”

"The adults laughed, it's really an invitation."

"Since it's an invitation, why are they locked in the mezzanine, why are they unkempt? You see, does this look like being invited? Chen Yueqiang pointed to a group of unkempt scholars who had just been brought out and asked loudly.

"That...... Something happened temporarily...... That ......"

"Jing Zheng, don't make it up, this official is not a fool. Come on, arrest everyone. ”

However, a group of samurai brought by Inoueno, as soon as they heard that they were going to arrest people, drew their weapons and confronted Jinyiwei, all of them with fierce faces and grinning teeth.

"Jing Zheng, I advise you, let your subordinates lay down their weapons, otherwise you will see blood later, don't blame the official for not reminding you."

"Lord Chen, release this group of scholars immediately, you don't have to arrest people, right?"

"Are you kidding? You kidnapped me for no reason, and if you release it immediately, you won't be held accountable, what is the reason? Could it be that I will stab you now and treat your wounds, and this matter will be over? ”

"Lord Chen, I'm an envoy of the Oriental Kingdom, aren't you afraid of hurting the harmony between the two countries?" Inoueno's face also fell.

"Kind? Jing Zhengzhi made a mistake about one thing, and it wasn't us who hurt the peace, but you. If you have violated the laws of my land in the land of my Great Beam, it is natural that you will punish you with the law of my Great Beam. Come and arrest people, if there is resistance, there is no killing. Chen Yueqiang roared.

"Lord Chen, you ......"

Chen Yueqiang ignored him anymore, the handle of the knife in his hand suddenly crossed his chest, and then waved his arm hard, and the scabbard looked fiercely at Inoueno's temple, and directly knocked Inoue Ye unconscious with a sheath.
