No matter how dissatisfied Lai Shengwen was in his heart, he didn't dare to face Xiong Wencan, who was in power, he was a civil official, he was born as a scholar, and he was promoted all the way up, with a great reputation and a tough waist.

Lai Shengwen could only complain and go back to vomit with his henchmen.

And he couldn't bring in the allies, Yan Changwu gave a lot of gifts to the senior officials, and they were very respectful, and everyone was full of praise for this kid!

In addition, the people won the eyes of the governor and the fleet was majestic, and the high-ranking officials soon knew that he had a great foundation in Taiwan, called the Fujian Sailor, which was actually fake, but the genuine Fujian Sailor was defeated by him......

Everyone can't get along with him, hello, I'm good, everyone's hello is really good!

……

Moreover, it was said that the local government received a notice to strictly guard on land, set up cards to control the outflow of materials, and actively looked for clues about Liu Xiang's gang.

Things are still going on, affecting the pond fish, first of all, the Portuguese in Macau, others can't afford to mess with their plywood boats, is Yan Changwu afraid?

How can the military expenses he consumed, and the red envelopes he gave, not recover the cost?

Macao received a request, and all Portuguese ships paid an annual fee of 3,000 taels of silver!

Not only the Portuguese ships, but all the red-haired boats have to be handed over!

Don't pay? The battleship was waved off the coast of Macao and released at the mouth of the Pearl River!

All the goods caught will be confiscated!

Listen, our Ming Dynasty implements a sea ban and does not trade with you Hongmaofan, and the goods on your ship must be smuggled and confiscated!

Seeing the southeast battleship with a double-deck gun, the red-haired fans immediately coaxed, pinched their noses and confessed, and paid these licensed robbers money to buy the road.

If it was a sixth-level or fifth-level cruiser, the red-haired fan would dare to fight, but the third-level battleship was really terrifying, and ordinary merchant ships had no power to parry.

There are more than 50 Hongmaofan merchant ships cruising in the area of Guangdong Province, one for 3,000 taels of silver, that is, 150,000 taels of silver, and a third-class battleship!

Of course, the red-haired fans were unhappy, and they listened to the spokesperson of the government, but found that they did not dare to come forward, for fear of angering Governor Xiong.

Yan Changwu cleverly did not move the domestic smuggling ship for the time being, if someone spoke for the red hair, no one would help them, but I was afraid that it would attract ridicule, calling them "troublesome!" ”

This crime is too big, and as a result, Yan Changhu is safe, although he wants to take back the profits and give some to the righteous officials of the Ming Dynasty, but most of the money is earned by the Southeast Mansion, and the military expenditure has been returned.

……

Haifeng County reported that in the open sea of Tianwei Yang, Liu Xiang's huge fleet was discovered.

The Governor Yamen was notified by a horse pass...... Xiong Wencan knew the virtues of the bureaucrats too well, and the news was not reported layer by layer, but to the governor's yamen.

I saw the report on: "... The thieves are very powerful, there are more than 100 thief ships on the sea, including more than 10 large ships, which are higher than the city wall. Xiong Wencan judged that it was the main force of the bandits, and set up a card order and sent it to Huangpu Wharf, and Xiong Ting followed the card order on the ship, and checked it to be true, so he looked for Yan Changwu.

Xiong Ting is the son of Governor Xiong's uncle and brother, he can't read the literature, he still has the ability to learn martial arts, although he has the arrogance of his son's brother, and he also got the lesson of Governor Xiong: "You want to treat Yan Inspector as your uncle and I will admire you like this!" ”

Xiong Wencan was able to appease Yan Changwu, the two respected each other like guests, Yan Changwu has always been very respectful to him, because Xiong Wencan gave him face, because Xiong Wencan correctly positioned him: "Yan Overseer must not be insulted, he is a big dragon leader of hundreds of thousands of people, with tens of thousands of male soldiers and dozens of plywood boats, do you think he will be a great good person?"

Yan Overseer killed people at the age of fifteen, who can do it? At least not Bendo, and neither can you! If not, be polite to him, or I will soon hear the news of your heroic death!" ”

Under the order of the ear to the face, Xiong Ting really did not dare to slack off, and after sending Haifeng's urgent documents, Xiong Ting kept saying everything but according to the orders of the Overseer.

"Good!" Yan Changwu ordered the battleship to set sail, and said that he would leave and go north.

They arrived at Taoyang, and Liu Xiang was waiting for his arrival.

I have to say that once the government hardens, the pirates feel the pressure!

The armor protection system was carried out in various places, and pirates were guarded against everywhere, and the ships did not go to sea as much as possible, so as not to give the pirates an opportunity to take advantage of them, and not to let the pirates have the opportunity to go ashore to replenish supplies.

Mobilized all parts of Guangdong Province to build fortifications on the shore,

The officials made a big move!

That is, all states, counties, townships, and villages will investigate, look for thieves, and ask their clans to summon them back, and if they do not obey, they will be expelled from the genealogy!

If he is willing to return, he will be pardoned.

However, the culprit cannot escape the punishment of national law.

I have to say that when the news reached the sea, the pirate group was panicked, and even Liu Xiang couldn't bear it!

Haifeng County officials and soldiers caught Liu Xiang's mother!

sent someone to deliver a letter and coerce Liu Xiang to return to obedience.

If you don't descend, your mother has three long and two short, which is unfilial!

Once the government is attentive, the secret cannot be kept, Liu Xiang sent his mother to Haifeng County, her mother was beautifully dressed, and outsiders called the old lady, thinking that it was a good family.

But when the government seriously investigated and found out the truth of the matter, it turned out that this was the mother of the sea thief, so he threatened Liu Xiang to surrender!

Liu Xiang called the messenger to go back and spread the word: "The crime of conquest is not as good as that of women and children, but it is an act of benevolence and righteousness!" If the government wants to commit violence, it can be recorded in the county annals! ”

The words were taught by the pirate military master Yu Xianke, and after receiving the effect, the government was very angry, do you know what it means to be implicated? What is the rebellion against the Nine Clans?

There is a small obstacle here, that is, the nine clans should be killed together, if the main culprit is not caught, without interrogation, and the identity is verified, but he kills his relatives, what if he is mistaken?

The government really wanted to come hard, and it was not that it couldn't be done, but in the end, the government only imprisoned Liu Wu's mother and did not make further disposition.

Although the bad luck from his mother was temporarily resolved, but the pressure of the government was heavy, and there was a huge reward from the southeast mansion, Liu Xiang knew that he had to fight a battle, as long as he won the southeast fleet, the local government would stop, dare not provoke pirates, and at the same time deter the ill-intentioned people in the team.

I didn't dare to fight with pirates before, because the Guangdong sailors were soft, and the government couldn't see the hope of victory, so they naturally didn't dare to act rashly.

As soon as the Southeast Fleet came, the government felt that there was a chance to win and earn credit, so why not make great efforts to eliminate pirates.

……

When Yan Changwu led the fleet into Tianwei Yang, he found that the pirates were coming from their southeast direction, gaining the upper hand.

The pirates of the pirate ship shouted and screamed, and struggled to approach the Southeast Fleet.

"I'm not as good as they would like!" Yan Changwu said lightly: "Give me north!" ”

They did not form a battle line, did not engage the battle, but headed to the northwest, ready to make a big bend and regain the upper hand!
