Chapter 222 Continue to bombard the green worms
"You're cheating me again!"
Yan Shenggong turned around and said resentfully.
"Yan Shenggong, don't worry, if anyone dares to slander the reputation of Yan Shenggong and insult the dignity of the Qufu Kong family in the future, I, Yang, will be the first to refuse, Emperor Shenzong will give me the gold medal for protecting the saint, then the matter of the Qufu Kong family is my business! As a disciple of Confucianism, he actually insulted Yan Shenggong in public, such a thief who deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors, he was simply innocent. ”
Yang Xinyi shouted rhetorically.
His voice was so loud that all the green worms who were stunned by the sound of the cannon heard him......
"Brother Li!"
A mournful cry.
On a recent ship, several green worms howled in grief.
They rushed to the side of the ship, looking at the blood-colored surface of the ship, and of course, the limbs floating on the river.
At such a distance of tens of meters, even a three-pounder cannon is still very powerful, and the result of a direct cannonball can only turn into a piece of minced meat, and four cannonballs make the four green worms disappear in an instant, and all that can prove their existence is a piece of blood on the deck, and there are also stumps and broken arms floating in the river.
Not only on this ship, but on all the surrounding ships, even on the other side of the pontoon, the green worms immediately let out a scream of pathos, horror and anger, and then looked at the ship whose deck was already red with blood.
"Reload, aim!"
Yang Xin dragged out his voice and shouted.
At the same time, his right arm stretched out, and his index finger moved slowly, quickly landing on the next target.
The artillery in the back wiped the breech and reloaded the ammunition as quickly as possible, and then aimed the muzzle of the cannon at the green worms who had just shouted Brother Li.
"Don't run, you idiots!"
Yan Shenggong screamed.
The green worms quickly came to their senses, screaming in terror and jumping off, even the owner and the shipwright jumped down in fright, while on the opposite pontoon there was an angry roar, and the green worms on another boat not far away also angrily denounced the traitor. But the traitor's arm moved again, and then pointed silently at them, and the green worms instantly shut up, and looked at his fingers in horror, while the muzzles of the four cannons were pointed at them.
All the green worms turned around and threw themselves on the water.
Then Yang Xin's fingers continued to move, and all the boats he pointed to, those green insects jumped off the boat in horror.
Although he didn't fire.
But in the example just now, these green worms know that if they don't jump, they will definitely shoot.
Fortunately, there were those boatmen in the water to help, these green insects did not have to be afraid of drowning, and then those boatmen dragged them to the shore, and behind them Yang Xin continued to move his fingers, and it was only less than two minutes later, and the more than 20 boats crowded near the pontoon bridge were all empty, but the green insects on the pontoon bridge were still roaring.
"Wait!"
Yang Xin said.
After saying that, he took a bundle of ropes that were obviously much thicker from the Jinyi guard, and then carried a large iron hook on it, and threw it directly to the nearest boat to hook it.
The soldiers in the back immediately took the rope.
Dozens of soldiers dragged the boat, which was more than 20 meters long, like slender men, and soon dragged it to the side of the pontoon bridge, and several soldiers immediately jumped on the boat and sailed to the gap in the middle of the pontoon bridge. This pontoon bridge is only disconnected in the middle of the passage, which is only more than 20 meters wide at most, and this boat can basically pass through it with this ship in the middle.
The green worm on the other side immediately understood.
However, they were not worried, because there were still several shipwrecks blocking the place, and it was impossible for this ship to get in.
Huang San looked at Yang Xin with an inquiring gaze.
As soon as the latter waved, a carriage immediately drove up to him, and Yang Xin reached out and grabbed a special weapon from the carriage.
To be precise, this thing is an elongated cone, but it is very large, and it is completely forged from wrought iron, and it looks like it is more than a hundred catties, but it is not a regular cone, but slightly flattened, like a ......
Well, it's like a giant millet pepper that has stepped on it.
There is an iron chain attached to the back.
Yang Xin carried this thing, and walked straight onto the pontoon bridge under the puzzled eyes of the green insects on the opposite side and the idlers on the city wall farther away, and then boarded the passenger ship that was blocked by the sunken ship. He looked at the wreck below with only a herringbone mast still exposed, then raised his head to look at the other side, jumped up with a sneer, and instantly reached a height of nearly a zhang, and then held the iron cone in both hands and suddenly disappeared into the water with a splash.
The water surface gradually returned to calm amid the turmoil.
Everyone was staring at the river, which was at least a foot and a half deep......
But there was only mud and sand.
And it kept rising, and soon even Yan Shenggong and the soldiers felt that something was wrong, because there were pieces of wood floating under the water, and it didn't take long for even the herringbone mast to fall, and the floating pieces of wood were more and more, bigger and bigger, and soon there were large pieces of ship's planks
However, Yang Yanshi's time underwater is gradually becoming amazing.
"How much more can this dog thief do?"
Yan Shenggong lamented.
At this time, small boats arrived on the water downstream, and on the front boat, Chen Daoheng looked at him with inquiring eyes, and Yan Shenggong pointed under the water helplessly.
Suddenly, half of the cabin surfaced.
"It's okay to pass!"
The brocade guard who led the team on the boat shouted.
As soon as he finished shouting this, a log almost the size of half a boat suddenly floated, and then automatically moved towards the shore on the water, and a line of sediment on the water was also moving towards the shore, and soon Yang Yanshi's head emerged from under the water, and then dragged the iron chain and the piece of wood to gradually rise.
"Vice Chen Xian, what a coincidence!"
Yang Xin, who was covered in water, shouted at Chen Daoheng.
Chen Daoheng looked at him silently, but at this moment, there was a chaotic shout on the pontoon, and the two of them immediately turned their heads together.
The passenger ship is pushing into the gap, but the green worms on the pontoon bridge opposite are gone, if this ship is allowed to enter the pontoon, then Yang Xin will take the Dangkou army directly into Yangzhou......
"Stop these geldings!"
A green worm shouted on the pontoon opposite.
"Who is this?"
Yang Xin asked.
"Taicang student Zhang Pu."
Yan Shenggong said.
He is still familiar with these younger generations.
Yang Xin nodded, the author of the tombstone of the five people, the leader of the Fushe and the founder, the actual leader of the Suzhou anti-tax movement, dared to write a list of officials as a student, and then handed it to the fierce man who asked Shoufu to do it, a madman of the Donglin Party who couldn't even stand it, and finally said that he was simply poisoned and killed.
"Vice Chen Xian, aren't you going to do something?"
Yang Xin looked at Chen Daoheng and said.
At this time, the Jinyi guard had already forcibly pushed the boat into with the soldiers, but these green insects on the shore also fought back unceremoniously under the leadership of Zhang Pu, and soon someone behind them passed long bamboo poles, and even stones and the like, the front used bamboo poles to push the passenger ship outward, and the back threw stones at those soldiers and the Jinyi guard.
The latter angrily scolded him while using a plank as a shield, while the soldiers all bowed their heads to support the boat because of their armor protection.
The two sides are at a stalemate on the river.
Chen Daoheng frowned and looked at the chaos of the pontoon.
"You are the deputy capital of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, don't tell me that you will sit idly by."
Yang Xin said.
"Don't work for Yang to teach!"
Chen Daoheng said.
He didn't know what had just happened, the stumps and severed arms of the four green worms were washed away by the river and he didn't see it, so he still maintained a normal attitude towards Yang Xin, if he knew that this bastard had just killed a Wupin Tongzhi with his own hands, and killed three Xiucai with a cannon, it was estimated that he would not be so calm.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the old man is the deputy imperial envoy of the Nanjing Metropolitan Procuratorate, the Admiral Caojiang Chen Daoheng, this is Yan Shenggong, this is Yang Xin, the governor of the Houjun Governor's Mansion, I am waiting here to solve the blockage of Yangzhou's Cao Yun, you are all the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, when everything is important to state affairs, no matter what contradictions you have with Yang Yanshi, you can't stop Yang Yanshi from going to Yangzhou.
Get out of the way.
The old man can assure you that everything is a misunderstanding, and the court will not hold anyone accountable for this. ”
He walked over to the pontoon and shouted to the other side.
"Vice Xian Chen, Yang Thief killed four students of the White Deer Cave Academy!"
Zhang Pu shouted angrily as he stabbed the soldiers on the boat with a bamboo pole.
Chen Daoheng looked back in amazement......
"To be precise, the four traitors who insulted the Holy Father of Yan were executed with cannons!"
Yang Xin said with the same sincerity as Captain Sparrow.
"They insulted Yan Sheng Gong with very vicious language, and insulted the ancestors of Yan Sheng Gong, you also know that I hold the gold medal of protection given by Emperor Shenzong, not only the responsibility of protecting the Confucian Temple, but also the responsibility of supervising the Confucian students in the world. As a Confucian disciple insulting Yan Sheng Gong with such vicious language, I think it is already injustice, and anyone who has a sense of justice for such a heinous person is ashamed of the same heaven, so I will not hesitate to risk punishment to shoot these wicked people to death.
Of course, if you think what I did was wrong, you can impeach me to Your Majesty, and you will be willing to bear it no matter how Your Majesty condemns Yang.
Where righteousness is, although the body is dead, there is no regret! ”
This thing said righteously.
Chen Daoheng pointed at him with trembling fingers, and then looked at Yan Shenggong on the side.
Yan Shenggong sighed.
Of course, Chen Daoheng knew about the recent condemnation of Yan Shenggong by Jiangnan public opinion, and it was obvious that these scholars dared to say this to their faces, and then they were caught by Yang Xin.
But those four scholars must have died in vain.
"The old man doesn't care about you!"
Helplessly, he lowered his hand and walked back in a rage.
"Vice Chen Xian, you have already ordered them to get out of the way, haven't you?"
Yang Xin said.
"Yes."
Old Man Chen said angrily.
But he reacted immediately.
"No ......"
He suddenly looked back and exclaimed.
However, it was too late.
"Firing the cannon and not even listening to the orders of the deputy imperial envoy of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court, isn't this a blatant confrontation with the imperial court?"
Yang Xin said.
In Chen Daoheng's crazy roar, the four cannons erupted into flames again......
