There are a lot of grain, gold, silver, machinery, copper, and daily necessities that need to be reloaded after unloading the ship, so it will naturally take some time. After the blockage of the Shandong shipping route, there were many fewer ships docking in Taierzhuang, but it was not completely abandoned, and some ships came and went every day. Today, however, these ships were unable to dock at the Imperial Wharf, and more than a dozen Qing officer ships flying dragon flags lined up on the shore, occupying all the places on the wharf that could be loaded and unloaded. Of course, there are still a few vacant seats for the official ship, but thousands of troops are next to it, and the crazy one dares to dock, and the soldiers and bandits are also poorly dressed. Many shipowners and shipowners stood at the bow of the ship and looked around for a while, seeing that these official ships would not move for a while and a half, and they all sailed directly to several wharves downstream, such as Luojia and Wangjia.

When the dock was prosperous, such small things happened every day, and no one would care about these boring things. But now is different from the past, in the past few years ships have become scarcer, and the soldiers, officials, and money and grain masters on the shore can all point to this mosquito meat to satisfy their hunger. Mu Anfeng, the county official in charge, was already going crazy, and he was almost blind to the fact that the few merchant ships he was looking forward to were all blocked out by the official ships, and then went to the dock downstream without any regret. The downstream is Lao Pan's territory, and the oil and water will naturally belong to Lao Pan, and there is nothing to do with Mu Anfeng.

Yin Yang Sheng, the old man, Kufu, Soap Li and others, who had already stood up excitedly, sat back disappointed as they watched the distant ships, sighing and waiting for the next opportunity. Mu Anfeng is not ready to wait any longer, what is the use of waiting? These official ships are not allowed to come out of the place, and even if the merchant ships come, they will also run to Lao Pan downstream. The top priority is to get rid of the dozen or so big guys in front of me as soon as possible, otherwise they won't have long to stop here.

"This military master, please hurry up! The merchant ships coming downstream could not reach the shore, and the route was blocked in a moment! Mu Anfeng observed for a long time before shaking his water tank-like body and walking to the vicinity of the official ship.

Mu Anfeng is also an old oilman by the canal, he has seen all kinds of people, he believes in his own judgment, and he has never missed judgment. This group of officers and soldiers is not the Eight Banner Soldiers, because the Banner People will not carry things by themselves, let alone be so quiet. If it was the banner man, he would have rushed in front of him, brandishing his whip and letting him pull the people over to be a coolie. These people are not veterans of the Green Battalion, if they are old Green Battalion soldiers, there will not be a single copper plate on Mu Anfeng's body at this moment. Nor are they like defeated soldiers, who are not discouraged and who do not have many wounded. They gave Mu Anfeng the feeling that they were surrendering troops, cautious everywhere, and had little contact with the outside world as a system of their own. When he got closer, Mu Anfeng was even more sure of his judgment, none of these soldiers had braids hanging down behind them, not one or two but everyone. This is exactly the characteristic of the long-haired surrendered soldiers, the newly surrendered Taiping soldiers have just shaved their heads, and their braids are generally shorter. However, there was one thing he was negligent, the dragon flag with blue and red edges on the bow of the ship was only used by the blue flag in the Eight Banners.

"Oh! Good! Thank you! I give the brothers a boost! "The person who looks like an officer that Mu Anfeng found is Li Zhi, and the kind-hearted Li Zhi is also easy-going, and he is polite when he is urged.

"Master Jun, it's not something you have to work, the ships in this canal are involved in transportation, not a trivial matter in your mouth. Pull to the side! Give you a berth, you just unload the cargo slowly, and get out of the dock quickly! Li Zhi's politeness made Mu Anfeng misunderstood, and he became more determined in his opinion on surrendering the troops, and of course his mouth became arrogant.

"We're all half unloaded, where can we move, you can wait! Let's hurry up! The good old man Li Zhi not only smiled, but also arched his hand to Mu Anfeng.

"That's not good, the ships are all state taxes, where can you delay at will! How did you bring so much goods, gold and silver, and you have to pay taxes? The more polite Li Zhi was, the more unceremonious Mu Anfeng became, standing next to him, he suddenly saw what the Qing army was carrying, and his eyes immediately straightened. In order to save some weight, the gold and silver are packed in sacks, which will inevitably be damaged after being bumped, and the gold and silver inside will naturally be exposed.

"You're laughing! We are officers and soldiers! Li Zhi didn't see the Qing army spend a penny along the way, and the people on the shore sent them money.

"Which one is joking with you, the official and military transport items are customized, and many of your things are privately entrained, so quickly make up the taxes!" Mu Anfeng felt that as long as he bluffed these surrenderers, he would definitely be able to knock down a big stroke.

Cao Meng has been watching Li Zhi from the sidelines, except for the matter of the fourth company of the war, Cao Meng doesn't care, just now he has been watching Li Zhi and Mu Anfeng answer correctly, he faintly feels that Li Zhi seems to be in trouble.

"Cao Meng, Li Zhi, what are you two doing with the two of you?" Xiande, who counted the materials before and after, suddenly found that there were two people standing stupidly on the edge of the busy crowd.

Cao Meng and Li Zhi looked at Xiande with a pleading face, but Mu Anfeng's cold sweat came down, his judgment seemed to have a problem, and the person who had just asked used a word "Yang Erzheng", and the well-informed Mu Anfeng knew that this was a Manchu sentence.

"What's wrong?" Xiande walked over with a confused look and Xishou who gave him a hand.

"Chief of Staff, this is ......" Li Zhi also wanted to introduce it, but suddenly found that although he knew that Mu Anfeng was a person on this dock, he really didn't know what Mu Anfeng was doing.

"I am Mu Anfeng, the county magistrate in charge of Huai'an Taierzhuang Banknote!" Mu Anfeng felt that he still had some confidence, after all, these people had too many things to carry privately.

"Oh!" Xiande seemed to agree, and then slapped Mu Anfeng directly to the ground.

"What the hell! Why do you go, you will be lazy, and you can talk to a dog for a long time! Xiande turned around and blasted a few people back to continue unloading.

"Little maid, you dare to beat people! You ......" Mu Anfeng always felt that he could ask for some soup and medicine, even if the other party was a flag person, he was not afraid. Now is not the time for the founding of the Qing Dynasty, and the banner people can't be so domineering, and his brother-in-law is still the county leader of this Taierzhuang, although the momentum is weak, he will not be afraid of these soldiers.

Many causes of psychopathology are caused by the shadow of childhood, and even if they are not perverted, many people are particularly sensitive to some things that hurt him in childhood, such as Xiande, who can't hear the words "little maid". Xiande Amma's wife has no children, Xiande is the son of a concubine, although he later inherited the family business, but Mrs. Dafang has always called him "little maid" since he was a child, and even his last words are the last words. Xiande, who is already in his sixties, can't hear these four words. Although these four words may have just been Mu Anfeng's verbal words, which were subconsciously said, Xiande completely exploded.

Of course, Xiande didn't have to do it himself, Xishou, who was quite dog-legged, picked up the horsewhip and pulled Mu Anfeng into a spinning top like a water tank. Xiande snatched the Taishi chair that Mu Anfeng was sitting on the shore before, and immediately scolded with a horizontal knife, as if he was scolding the big lady who had bullied him for decades.

The ghost crying wolf howl here naturally alarmed Cezanne and the others, and all the officers gathered. asked about the cause and effect, everyone was a cold eye, and no one came up to dissuade them. Among the officers, only Cao Meng and Li Zhi were serious Han Chinese, and the others were all from the banner people. They are also rampant and domineering characters on weekdays, and they didn't go out to bully people because of Guo Xing'a's control, but now someone dares to bully them, and it's okay if they don't go up directly to help.

The brother-in-law who got the news secretly scolded the brother-in-law for being confused, two thousand soldiers! Even if it's a surrender, it's not something you can afford to offend as a small county official! What's more, he also provoked the serious Eight Banners, this is not looking for death! However, Wang Wenju of Yixian County, who is located in Taierzhuang, has a deep affection for his wife and wife, who are the same as his own water tank, and he can't watch his brother-in-law being beaten to death, so he can only dress neatly and come to save people.

However, Lord Wang Wenju, the eight-rank official of the dignified court, did not finish his words as soon as he appeared, and was ordered by the dignified court from the five-rank official Sai Shang'a to hang the tree from the seventh-rank official Hatan. Lord Wang had been a wind chime on the tree for half an hour, and Guo Xing'a was late.

"Uncle Sai, what's going on?" Guo Xing'a saw the sausage-like court official on the tree, and hurriedly asked Saishan'a.

After Saishan'a explained the cause and effect, Guo Xing'a couldn't cry or laugh a little, and first confirmed that Xiande was angry, and then ordered someone to put Lord Wang down. As for Mu Anfeng, he needs to be rescued, Xishou is extremely black, and Mu Anfeng's current state is like a layer of fishing nets on the water tank, with whip marks everywhere.

"Xiaguan Yi County Cheng Wang Wenju to the adults please be safe!" Wang Wenju was hung for more than half an hour, his arm couldn't be lifted, and he didn't know who Guo Xing'a was, but he saved himself anyway, so he hurried over to say goodbye.

"Lord Wang doesn't need to be polite! My subordinates have a bigger temper, Lord Wang, forgive me! However, this county official you appointed may be a little crazy, Lord Wang will be optimistic in the future! What a troublemaker! "Guo Xing'a doesn't care too much, according to Sai Shang'a, when Guo Xing's cheap father Hui Yang was alive, he once beat the Gu'an County Order, and that time it was the county order of the people, and in the end, the deputy capital of Miyun Yamen reprimanded a few words, and nothing else. This time, it's Guoxing Azhanli, if you fight, you will fight, what can be a big deal.

Guo Xing'a really thinks that Mu Anfeng has a bad brain, of course he can't guess Mu Anfeng's mental activities, but he just thinks that a small official is like an army of 2,000 people eating and taking cards, either mentally ill, or the goose has been plucked out of the realm. And this realm is definitely not low, even higher than the realm of Guoxing's drunkenness.

"Yes, thank you for the mention!" Wang Wenju also couldn't find the grave if he wanted to cry, Guoxing Akin released people, whatever he said was what he said.

"Report, the banner of the Huai'an staff officer is coming, according to which it is only two miles!" A soldier from a reconnaissance platoon ran over to report to Goxinga, although it was an internal march, Goxinga was still very cautious, and he was strictly guarded all the way. The Taiping army will not chase after them, but it is difficult to guarantee that they will not encounter the twisted army or bandits, and if the boat capsizes in the gutter, it will be too worthless. It's only a thousand meters away from Erli, but it's in the wilderness, and this Taierzhuang Wharf is next to the market, so naturally you can't even see a shadow.

"Presumably it was the official who went back to deliver the message, and the general Ding thought that something had happened, so the subordinate went over to explain it to him!" Wang Wenju had a good relationship with the general Ding Degui, thinking that he was hanging on a tree, and his servants went to Ding Degui for help.

"Oh, yes, yes! It's a good thing that you're here! Go ahead! Come and say that you still have a big flag, it's too formal! Ha ha! "Goxinga didn't take it seriously at all.

"My lord, there are more than 500 people in the general's department!" The scout also noticed that Goxinga did not understand what he meant.

"What?" Guoxing was shocked.

"Definitely more than five hundred!" The Scout repeated.

"The cavalry got on the horse, covered the supplies offshore, the infantry battalion lined up, the reconnaissance company went to the roof to occupy the commanding heights, the teaching team covered the retreat of the baggage company, the artillery occupied the high ground, and the second infantry battalion gave me all the people to the house, and the whole army was ready for battle!" Although Guo Xing'a thought it was incredible, the general of Taierzhuang really brought five or six hundred people to find him and merge with him. There is too much gold and silver exposed in the baggage that he has piled up, and if this general is allowed to lead the troops in front of him, the so-called treasure will move people's hearts, and many people will definitely die. And once the chaos starts, it is difficult to protect yourself from losses, so it is better to prepare early.
