"Drive!" Shouts rang out one after another, and a group of cavalry galloped across the official road, completely ignoring the bitter winter wind. Behind these cavalry were bands of soldiers, already a long snake, running and hurrying. This formation made the few passers-by on both sides of the official road avoid one after another, suspicious of the movement of this official army with a little fear.

"The banner is the word Liu, and it looks like they are all tall and big, it should be the Liu general from the north, right?"

"Yes, it must be him, in such a hurry, what is this for? Could it be that another pirate has come ashore? ”

"Impossible, on the night of the Chinese New Year's Eve, the Xu Xiang Pirates' men were defeated by him, how could they dare to go ashore in such a short time?" Those pirates can only run rampant in the sea! ”

"It can't be Hongyi's business, right? I heard that Hongyi is in Taiping Port! Isn't this direction going to Taiping Port! ”

"Those red-haired ghosts and those pirates are all virtuous, it's good to kill them all!"

“……”

The story of the Dutch has spread, and even passers-by can guess a thing or two.

That's right, this army was the headquarters of Liu Guoneng, who rushed to Taiping Port on the order of Sun Chuanting. No, as soon as I entered the territory of Changle County, I met a messenger sent by the Changle garrison.

"It was reported that Hongyi tried to drive the grain ship out of Taiping Port, and the military ship also moved. Taiping Port is short of troops, ask for support! ”

When Liu Guoneng heard this, he immediately shouted angrily: "These Hongyi are against the sky, they dare!" ”

With a wave of his hand, the cavalry ran again, and ran faster and faster, leaving the infantry behind, and gradually disappearing at the end of the road.

In the wharf fortress of Taiping Port, all the guns have taken off their armor, all the artillery is in place, and there are local soldiers standing on the shore, all with serious faces, staring at the ships not far from the sea. Some people even have a hint of worry on their faces.

And those warships on the sea also had their bows on their sides, and their muzzles were opened, revealing a door of artillery. There weren't many people on the deck, and the few were all watching nervously on the shore.

The port wharf is close to the three-bow sea boats, full of grain. However, the ship was full of Ming soldiers, and a few Hongyi, who seemed to be arguing about something, but looking at them like that, no one seemed to convince anyone.

The whole of Taiping Harbor, and beyond that, there were hardly any other people and no other ships. It's not usually like this, it's obvious that they are hiding when they see the tense atmosphere.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, finally breaking the tension in the port. Seeing a team of Ming cavalry, under the guidance of the banner of the word "Liu", I knew that it was the general Liu Guoneng who had arrived.

A military general immediately came out of a house on the shore, hurriedly greeted him with a few light followers, saluted and told the current situation: "My lord, these Hongyi don't know what medicine they have taken, they actually use their gunboats to blackmail us, and they want to withdraw the grain ships as well......"

Liu Daneng sat on the horse, condescending, first looked up at the warships on the sea, breathed evenly, and then lowered his head and asked, "What about their heads, is there an explanation?" ”

"I didn't come over on the warship, saying that I wanted to see Lord Zhongcheng, and I wanted to ask for an explanation, saying that we are treacherous and untrustworthy! He also said that they believed in our Ming Dynasty and worked hard to bring grain from Nanyang, but they had bad intentions against them...... Anyway, what they meant seemed to be that we wanted to destroy them, so that's how they were. The Changle garrison angrily said, "The last general saw that they had bad intentions, so he didn't listen to the order and drove the warship in." My lord, please see, their guns are all open, and the general estimates that they have not changed their thief nature, so they want to go ashore and plunder! ”

Liu Guoneng was beside Ma San, a newly arrived Jinyi Wei Xiaoqi, who saw this situation and felt that the situation was a bit serious, so he entered the chat group in accordance with the regulations he learned when he officially joined the company, and chatted privately with Governor Sun Zhongcheng about the situation.

However, at this time, Sun Chuanting was not in the chat group, and his authority was not enough for the system to directly notify Sun Chuanting who was offline. But it happened that Emperor Chongzhen was there, and when he saw a private chat, he went to read it.

Knowing the current situation, he couldn't help frowning, did these Dutchmen take the wrong medicine? Since the grain has already been delivered, why do you have to look for trouble at this time, logically speaking, it shouldn't be!

At the Taiping Port Wharf, Liu Guoneng was understanding the situation, and suddenly saw a team of local soldiers escorting a group of people over, those people looked like Hongyi, and in this winter, they were still sweating profusely, as if they had traveled a long way.

"Report, these Hongyi are envoys to the Fuzhou Governor's Mansion, but they ran back halfway and were caught by their subordinates!"

The warships at sea seemed to see the situation on the shore, and the warships seemed to be moving again, and there were more people on the deck, looking this way. At the same time, Liu Daneng's infantry vanguard arrived and drove into the Taiping Port Wharf one after another. The Ming army on the shore has increased a lot.

Seeing so many Ming troops, Ai Bige couldn't help but believe the news he heard. At this time, when he heard that some of these people in the government began to scold his side, he couldn't help but say: "You Ming people are treacherous, without faith, not only deceive us of our food, but also want to destroy us, we will not be fooled......"

Liu Guoneng heard this Hongyi speaking the official words of the Ming Dynasty, but he said bad things about the Ming Dynasty with a disdainful face, and couldn't help but be furious, and he was a whip in his hand, and shouted: "Just a barbarian like you, dare to say that I am treacherous in the Ming Dynasty?" ”

These people who look like ghosts used to rob less at sea, and on the other hand, the Ming Dynasty is treacherous, which makes Liu Guoneng how to bear it!

"Why, when you are told to be right, you are annoyed and angry, isn't it?" Ai Bige didn't bow his head at all, straightened his neck and sneered, "What was Nan Juyi like this before, and the same is true of Sun Chuanting now, but there is no one who speaks of faith!" ”

Nan Juyi is now an important minister of the imperial court, and he was scolded like this, Changle Garrison didn't wait for Liu Guo to make a move, so he punched him first, and it hurt so much that Ai Bige couldn't say the next words at all.

Ma San frowned when he saw this situation, he felt a little wrong, so he entered the chat group again, continued to chat with Sun Zhongcheng privately, and told him the latest situation.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, as a bystander, he felt a kind of inexplicability, there must be something wrong here. So, he immediately replied to Ma Sandao: "Let Liu Guo be calm and not be impatient, ask me about the situation clearly, and tell me, I will wait!" ”

As soon as he saw the emperor reply, Ma San didn't dare to slack off, and immediately approached Liu Guoneng and conveyed the emperor's will in a low voice.
