Seeing Li Banghua and Ma Shilong's expressions, Fu Changzong shook his head with a smile and said, "No need to be surprised, sit down, it's just the three of us, it's okay." ”

Li Banghua and Ma Shilong couldn't help but glance at each other, and then sat down slowly, the surprise on their faces did not subside.

Although the word 'Donglin' is not a taboo, officials in the court are reluctant to mention it, which is their embarrassment, unbearableness, and pain.

The Donglin Party used to be a group admired by government and opposition officials, who regarded them as proud and proud to be with them, but after the Donglin Party was stripped of their skins, these became 'humiliations' in everyone's hearts, and no one was willing to mention them.

Li Banghua and Ma Shilong are very clear about the Donglin Party, Li Banghua is a member of the Donglin Party, but he hates party strife and hides in the sky. Jinwei was not involved. Although Ma Shilong is in the army, he is also excluded.

At the same time, they know very well that the power of the Donglin Party is too great, and the current emperor has been dealing with it since he ascended the throne, and it was not until last year that it was 'clean', and it took eight years!

Eight years!

If there is another copy of the Donglin Party, will it take another eight years? How much movement has the Donglin Party tossed, could it be that at this critical moment, the government and the opposition will concentrate on dealing with this 'second Donglin Party'?

Li Banghua and Ma Shilong both had solemn faces, and they also knew the energy and ideas of the Donglin Party, which made them both deeply jealous and worried.

Fu Changzong looked at the two of them, could roughly guess their thoughts, and reassured: "Don't think about it, the emperor has always insisted on the 'ban', which was originally to prevent them from making a comeback, and now although there are many of them, they are not at the top level, and they are harmless, and they can't make much trouble." ”

Ma Shilong didn't dare to be careless, and said: "My lord, if the rebellion in northern Shaanxi was instigated by them behind the scenes, it means that they have become more extreme, ignoring the emperor and the imperial court's discipline, they must not be taken lightly, and they need to be taken precautions as soon as possible and removed as soon as possible!" ”

Fu Changzong is Zhu Xu's uncle, and he has a very heavy weight between the government and the opposition, Li Banghua pondered Fu Changzong's words, and had some understanding, and said: "My lord, has the emperor mastered it and can control it?" ”

Fu Changzong looked calm and said, "The disease of scabies." Telling you this is just to make you know what to expect, and you don't need to think about anything else. ”

Li Banghua and Ma Shilong's expressions suddenly relaxed, they all knew Zhu Xu's methods, since Fu Changzong said so, most of them would not be a big deal.

Since this is the case, Ma Shilong said: "My lord, the lower official plans to get up immediately, lead 3,000 troops, and completely exterminate the rebellion in northern Shaanxi!" ”

Fu Changzong nodded and said, "This is your business, and the official doesn't say much." However, if you can, don't open it if you can't open the killing ring, all kinds of projects in Liaodong, North Annan and the Ministry of Industry, and even the South China Sea need people, don't waste it. ”

Ma Shilong said: "Xia Guan understands. Shaanxi. The west is no longer what it used to be, and the lower officials are confident that all the bandits will be quelled within a month! ”

Fu Changzong smiled, Shaanxi. The west is indeed different, the control of the army is quite strong, even if some bandits occupy the mountains and roaring mountains and forests, they can rarely occupy the prefectures and counties, and they are still unable to resist the official army.

Li Banghua was not worried at all, and the governor's yamen thought that his control over the place was not bad, and he said to Fu Changzong: "My lord, the lower officials will go down and walk around, observe and improve the 'farm policy', and I will bother my lord to watch it here." ”

Fu Changzong looked at Li Banghua and said, "It stands to reason that your rank is a personal guard, but at the moment, the military department has not arranged to come over, so you should be cautious when you go." The emperor has said more than once that Li Jingbai's matter must not happen a second time! In this case, I will lend you my personal guard for use first, and you must take it everywhere, and you must not be careless. ”

Li Banghua was relieved in his heart, and said with a face as usual: "Your Excellency, the lower official has thanked you." ”

Fu Changzong did not mean to interfere in the affairs of Li Banghua and Ma Shilong, although he was the prime minister of the six provinces, he would not interfere too much, and after thinking about it, he said: "I will discuss with the general army of the six provinces and the governor of Qin, and the speed of disarmament will be delayed to ensure that everything is complete." ”

Li Banghua and Ma Shilong have no objections, and these things are settled.

Shaanxi/West affairs, turbulent appearance, Shaanxi. The western high-level is calm and unhurried, and there is no chaos in the face of danger.

Just when Li Banghua, Ma Shilong and others left, more than 20 large ships from Yingtianfu were transported, and the official ships carrying this year's summer grain and tax silver had just passed Yang. The state ushered in a rainy season.

This is an official ship, and the officers and men of the Cao Transport Department under the cabinet are responsible for escorting more than 20 large ships, with a total of more than 300 officers and men.

Bang bang bang

Dark clouds covered the sky, and the raindrops were bigger than beans, dense and falling, smashing on the boat, crackling, accompanied by gusts of wind, giving people an extremely unsettling sense of fear.

On the largest ship, a man in the armor of a lieutenant stood in front, looking up at the sky and the road ahead, with a solemn face.

A team leader beside him frowned and said, "My lord, this rain is getting heavier and heavier, and I can't walk anymore, so let's find a place to stop and wait for the rain to pass." ”

The captain looked at it for a while, shook his head and said: "I don't know when this rain will fall, and the grain can't be soaked in the rain for a long time, and I'm worried that if the river is full, I'm afraid that I won't be able to walk for ten days and a half months, and I will definitely miss the time." ”

The team leader looked at the rain and said, "But the wind and rain are too big, so it's not safe." ”

The captain naturally knew it, Shen Se thought for a while, and said: "Link the ships with iron chains, slow down, safety first, and prepare food for rainproof, not too much loss, otherwise you won't be able to explain." ”

That's all it takes, and the squad leader responded, "Yes." ”

The team leader was just about to turn around, but suddenly turned his head again, tried to look ahead, blinked, and said, "My lord, am I mistaken, there is a ship coming towards us in front?" ”

The captain was watching, and suddenly his expression was solemn, and he said: "We are taking the official road, and there is no possibility of a boat at this time!" ”

The squad leader suddenly reacted and said, "I immediately asked people to raise flags and order them to stop the boat!" ”

It's a time of heavy rain, and it's not a trivial matter if there is a collision!

The captain shook his head and said, "With such heavy rain, I can only barely see the ship, and I can't see the flag at all, so notify the helmsman and let them avoid it...... Also, the anti-collision tools are installed, and everyone is on guard! ”

The squad leader was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Yes, be prepared, I'll let them all load!" ”

The lieutenant did not speak, but still stared at the coming ship, his face constantly solemn, his eyes flickering.

The incoming ship is not big, the draft is not much, and the speed is constantly accelerating, as if it has lost control, and is rushing straight towards them!

Their official ships are all big ships, and it is difficult for them to make every move, and it is impossible to avoid them by a large margin now.

The ship was approaching at a rapid pace, and a man appeared in the bow, shouting to the captain, vaguely sounding like the ship was out of control and needed help.

At this time, dozens of boatmen poured out around the captain, and they arranged iron nets in front of the ship, erected shelves, and some strange things probed into the water to form a huge protective net around the whole ship.

The squad leader quickly ran over and said urgently: "My lord, the wind and rain are getting bigger, and many boats are about to get out of control, and there is an old bow that said that there was a big flood near here ten years ago, and there will be turbulence ahead, and many boats have capsized at that time, and many people have died!" ”

The captain's pupils immediately shrank sharply, looked at the black ship on the opposite side that was rushing faster and faster, and said in a deep voice: "Order each ship to separate, hand it over to the captains to command, immediately find a way to dock, and not continue to drive, and also, first-class combat readiness!" ”

The squad leader's expression changed greatly, and he immediately realized that he said in a deep voice: "Yes!" ”

The convoy of grain carriers moved quickly, struggling and churning in the wind and rain, as if it were about to capsize at any moment.

The captain at the front looked at the ship opposite, his eyes were cold, and he didn't say anything more.

The ship on the other side was already in front of him, and he could only fight hard, block this ship, and make a protective wall for the ship behind him and time reaction!

The ship on the opposite side was hidden in the wind and rain, it was pitch black, and the speed was terrifying, and it directly crashed into the official ship where the captain was!

boom

The moment it collided, the black ship suddenly exploded, and the flames soared into the sky, raging with flames, and with the violent storm, it quickly swallowed everything around it.

The lieutenant stood motionless at the bow of the ship, and he watched the black ship rush towards him, looking straight into the cabin, as if he could see the people inside sneering grimly.

"Get out of the way!"

The people on the boat behind shouted one after another, and at this time everyone knew that someone was attacking them.

As the first ship exploded, the ships behind them didn't have time to react at all, churning in the wind and waves, too late, and were knocked together one after another.

"It's not good, it's flooded, the ship is sinking......"

"What should I do with the bow of the ship, these are official food, and they can't be lost......"

"Return the official food, no one will rescue you and wait for death......"

rumble

Suddenly, the black ship that had already exploded once in front of it exploded violently again, roaring like thunder, and the fire was even more intense, but it was drowned in the thunderstorm in the sky, as if it had never happened to the outside world!
