Chapter 353. Three fires meet fire extinguishers

Lao Cheng's one-time contact point was really built correctly, two months in advance, Dongjiang learned the news of Wen Tiren's downfall, and with two months, there are a lot of things that can be done.

On May 18 of the tenth year of Chongzhen, the newly promoted Phi Dao chief soldier Huang Long still came by edict, and he came with more than 400 personal soldiers.

Sitting on the Cangshan warship in Liaodong, everyone seemed very excited, after all, the wealth of the Dongjiang River is well known, and now that his deputy general has become the chief soldier of the Dongjiang River, then at least the cigarette is smoked, and the corn shochu is at least drunk casually, right?

On the bow of the boat, a middle-aged scribe wearing a pine green robe and a green gauze crown was leaning on the bow of the boat, looking into the distance, his face was full of disdain and disdain, this is the blessing in disguise this time, because he tripped Wen Tiren and got back up, Qu Shiyun who won the Dongjiang Wupinjian Military Dao, Qian Qianyi's apprentice.

"Master Jianjun, what are you holding here?"

As a supervising army, how to do it without a little personal soldier support, he was released from the prison, and he went directly to take office with the official letter, only with a scholar and a subordinate by his side, and the same grasshopper on the same boat, Huanglong allocated him ten pro-soldiers as a long-term follower, watching him fiddle with his hands, the leader of the pro-soldier Lao Wu was almost curious and asked.

"This one! Cross!"

Reaching out and picking up the silver pendant in his hand, this Qu Shiyun is not as eye-facing as ordinary scholars, but quite approachable, and explained kindly.

"The Western Cult believes that the Messiah, Jesus, was crucified and resurrected three days later to show the world the way to God's salvation."

Since he is the savior, why is he still crucified, with a bloody paste-face, how mad he is, besides, resurrected, isn't that just a corpse? Lao Wu was confused when he listened.

Fortunately, the set was almost his main purpose, he didn't care if Qu Shiyun believed in gods or zombies, nodded vaguely, and then he lowered his voice again.

"Master Jianjun, this time in Dongjiang, you have to take good care of those Dongjiang cubs and rob them of the mutual market with Jiannu! Don't you know, these little rabbit cubs do business with Jiannu every year and make a lot of money! If you take this, every year, you can get tens of thousands of taels in your account!"

"Oh? So much? I know!"

Lao Wu was excited there and his head was hot, but Qu Shiyun hummed disapprovingly, holding his arms, his heart was cold, the soldiers didn't want to defend the border for the country, and the generals were obsessed with trading with the enemy to make a fortune.

Thinking about it, the boatman in front suddenly shouted with joy.

"My lord, Phi Dao has arrived!"

Get off the boat from the wharf, whether it is Huanglong or Qu Shiyun, the brows can't help frowning, when you come, there are a lot of boats in Shandong, everyone says that the Dongjiang River is rich, but this is coming, but the eyes are very depressed, the wood in the small port is rotten, and the two fishing villages on the side are all barren, looking at this scene, Qu Shiyun's impression of the Mao family father and son is a little worse, this army will be tyrannical, and the subordinate military town is so barren, the Ming Dynasty is to let these talents become what they are today.

Smelling the unpleasant smell of horse manure, Ning Yuan's relatives and soldiers got off the boat, but the cold wind blew for a long time, not to mention people, and he didn't even see a ghost.

"Go to Phi Island City and tell the father and son of the Mao family that Ben will be handed over in the future!"

The two soldiers hurriedly ran towards the island, and after about twenty minutes, the two returned in a hurry.

"Master Chief, the city of Naphi Island is empty, it looks like no one has lived in it for a long time, and the city walls have collapsed!"

"What?"

Regardless of whether the general soldier or the army, they all shouted angrily together.

The smell of horse dung was even stronger, and looking at the empty city, Huang Long was annoyed and hugged his fist at Qu Shiyun.

"Master Qu, this Mao family father and son are so lazy and arrogant, this Phidao Town is broken like this, you can see it, you have to impeach them."

His face was also full of anger and annoyance, but after looking at it for a while, Qu Shiyun asked in surprise.

"There are 100,000 soldiers and civilians registered in Dongjiang, even if there is water, there will always be 10,000, right? This Phi Island is empty, where are his soldiers and civilians? ”

"And this horse manure! Look at the piles on the side of the wall have been dried, by no means left in the past few days, this number, there are no less than two thousand horses here, where are these horses? ”

"Master Qu is well-read and knowledgeable!"

reluctantly slapped a sycophant, and the new chief soldier in his forties continued to shout in annoyance.

"But my lord, the top priority is to find the father and son of the Mao family as soon as possible and hand over the seal letter!"

"My lord, that Mao Jue Xiao'er is the deputy general of Tieyi, and his mutual market is mainly on the Yalu River in Yizhou, it is estimated that this Dongjiang Town is also in Tieshan, and you have to go to Tieshan to find him!"

This pro-soldier Lao Wu came up with an idea with a fist on the side, but in exchange for Huang Long's head and face, he was reprimanded.

"Presumptuous! This general is the chief soldier of Phi Dao, his Mao Jue's superior, how can there be a superior official to visit his deputy general? How can that be?"

However, looking at the number of war horses, Qu Shiyun became interested and persuaded on the side.

"After all, Mao Wenlong is also a Dongjiang old-timer, and he has been here for more than ten years, and it is not a shame to visit him, and the adults can also win a good reputation for humility."

"What Lord Qu said is, let the boat come over, his grandfather's, let's go to Iron Mountain!"

Borrowing the slope to get off the donkey, Huang Long, who had long been impatient with the smell of horse manure, hugged his fist, and took the lead in getting down the mountain city in anger, but Qu Shiyun not only did not dislike the smell of horse manure, but took a few more looks, and hummed secretly.

"Two thousand cavalry, it seems that this Mao father and son are greedy for money, but they are not all out of business!"

…………

The three small Cangshan Mountains are swaying and some continue to go north, but this time, it is even more unsmooth, and I haven't seen the mouth of the Yalu River, and in the river, a row of behemoths is arrogantly lying there.

In the past few years, I haven't seen that the Dongjiang first-class battleships are still unmoved and not stunned, especially the upper and lower rows, and the black muzzles of dozens of cannons are still gloomy towards themselves!

"What the hell is Mao Jue going to do?"

Shocked and angry, Huang Long simply patted the guardrail of the ship and jumped to his feet, and Qu Shiyun was also stunned and blurted out in disbelief.

"Westerners' warships, how can they sail to the north, no, under the banner of the Ming Dynasty, the father and son of the Mao family in Dongjiang actually have so many warships and artillery!"

Although Qu Shiyun is a disciple of the Donglin Party and Qian Qianyi, he is not the same as the traditional Donglin Party, he is biased towards Xu Guangqi's Western learning and Eastern faction, and even he has joined the church, his Christian name is Dormer, and he has been mixed in the area of Macao, he knows more about these Western warships than the average Ming scholar.

A total of six first-class battleships, more than ten second-class battleships, more than 800 cannons, plus a piece of at least one or two million taels or even more, seeing these battleships, Qu Shiyun's impression of the two fathers and sons of the Mao family is much better, with such a strategic vision, it is not a mind that falls into the eyes of money, even if the mutual market is opened, the silver is also invested in armaments, which is very rare in the Ming Dynasty.

This means that after he arrives, he has more things to do.

However, now it was still at the low muzzle of the cannon, and he didn't dare to step forward after being angry for a long time, so Huang Long had no choice but to shoot a personal soldier and row a small boat to the bottom of the Dongjiang battleship first, shouting at the top of his throat.

"Hey, the Dongjiang cub above, listen, Lord Huanglong, the chief soldier of Phi Dao, and Lord Qu, the soldier of Phi Dao, are here, why don't you hurry down and greet you!"

But the next words almost didn't make Huang Long angry, and a round general appeared on it, pulling his ears with the appearance of behind his ears.

"What bug? Which grandchild came out of the hole? ”

"It's Lord Huanglong, the chief soldier! You're fucking looking for death!"

The belly of the pro-soldier almost blew up, and he shouted angrily, but the bow of the ship, the huge sea was disdainful.

"You say you're a general soldier yellow worm, then a general soldier yellow worm! Lao Tzu is still a huge sea of military books! God knows if you are pretending to be a widow, send the seal letter and let Lao Tzu check it first!"

The boundary of the Dongjiang River has not entered, so let a junior officer check the letter? The three fires of the new Huanglong official have not yet burned, which is equivalent to letting people take a fire extinguisher to cool their hearts first, but the army is a place that pays attention to prestige, this has to be conceded, and he will not be able to mix in the army in the future.

It was like thunder, and Huang Long shouted directly at the top of his throat.

"Drive a boat for Lao Tzu and hit it, Lao Tzu doesn't believe it, he Dongjiang gang of cubs really dare to shoot!"

Facing the sea breeze, the three small Cangshan mountains were full of sails, but it turned out that he Dongjiang cub really dared to shoot!

The Hongyi cannon rang out one after another, and the big iron balls weighing several pounds fluttered and smashed on the sea, and the water droplets were almost as high as the sails of the ship, and even if the heavy artillery bombarded the waves brought up on both sides, the small boat was still swaying upside down, and it was roared by the cannon fire for seven or eight minutes.

No one's voice is as loud as a cannon, and no one can be reasonable enough to talk about this iron guy, and he collapsed a kelp, and Huang Long waved his hand sadly.

"Go, take the general's seal letter, and let this group of killers get out of the way of Lao Tzu!"

On the other hand, Qu Shiyun was not much better, and he was a literati, thinking more than Huanglong, and the bright spots that had just appeared in his pupils were immediately replaced by gloom.

Dare to fire at the general army and the supervising army, this Dongjiang River is flying to the extreme!

It was not good to pass the letter, and in the words of the huge sea, who knows if it was carved from a radish, these big ships surrounded from both sides, and the small boat with the yellow dragon drove forward, like the capture of three pirate ships.

finally arrived at the beach, and this time, I finally saw Mao Jue, but Mao Wenlong still didn't appear.

"Meet the Chief Soldier of Phi Dao!"

Dozens of generals in Dongjiang followed Mao Jue, neatly hugged his fists, the etiquette was small, it was like an acquaintance greeting, he didn't meet Shangguan before getting off the boat, and Qu Shiyun saw it and his eyelids jumped, from Mao Jue above, to the travelogue of President Qian, there was no indifference and hostility in his eyes, which made him shudder.

This time, the court and the central government divided the stolen goods, and it seemed that he did not pick up a big watermelon, but kicked it into a big hornet's nest.

However, at this time, Huang Long was already so angry that he didn't pay attention to the hostility in front of him, and he actually slapped Mao Jue in the face, roaring angrily.

"What kind of fucking soldiers are you bringing, there is no commander in the eyes, dare to shoot like Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will kill you!"

Crash~

In an instant, hundreds of firearms with cold and shining bayonets came directly against him, after all, he had fought on the battlefield, and that killing intent Huang Long felt it vividly, and for a while, the cold hairs on his back were erected, and he screamed in horror.

"Mao Jue, what are you going to do? Do you want to rebel? ”

The face that was slightly tilted to the side came back, but Mao Jue was still so indifferent, looking at Huang Long coldly, and words like ice slag squeezed out from between his teeth.

"Lord Commander-in-Chief, have you brought your salary?"
