In addition to being frightened, Liao Dake desperately wanted to understand what was going on. It's a pity that none of his subordinates can accurately tell him who is attacking the inspection yamen and what they are here for. The only thing they know is that these people are fierce, and the patrolmen can't stop them. Their intelligence feedback made Liao Dake extremely frightened.

In broad daylight, someone dared to attack the Inspection Division, and it was so fierce. Even if Liao Dake wanted to break his head, he couldn't guess who was so desperate. Don't they know that this is a rebellion? The direct boss of the Inspection Department is Zhang Gonggong, the eunuch of Nanjing. If you anger Gonggong Zhang, it is equivalent to directly slapping His Majesty the Emperor in the face! Who would dare to be so bold?

"Who the hell is it?"

"Did you figure it out?"

Liao Dake shouted angrily.

He suspected that Lu Jiude was playing tricks.

The Inspection Department was originally under the jurisdiction of Lu Jiude, and when Zhang Yixian came, he seized it, and of course Lu Jiude was unwilling. Openly and secretly, Lu Jiude and Zhang Yixian are competing. Lu Jiude has been a eunuch in Nanjing for many years, and of course he has a lot of forces under him, on the contrary, Zhang Yixian is an out-and-out outsider, and he has not yet established a strong enough strength for the time being.

"My lord, I don't know who it is, they came back on our ship."

"The two new ships that went to intercept Shen Lingfei were all robbed by them."

"It is said that they are from the north, and they are not afraid of Zheng Zhilong and them, I don't know what the origin is!"

Liao Dake was angry, and his subordinates were also a little broken, and when they reported the situation, they were also at a loss. At the same time, they are also quite pessimistic about their fate. The other party came to the door so fiercely, you can imagine what will happen if it falls into their hands.

They vaguely felt that this matter might be related to the detention of Shen Lingfei. The two brand-new lucky ships went out to be responsible for seizing Shen Lingfei. However, Shen Lingfei is a woman after all, and she has already disconnected herself from the Shen family in Suzhou, how can she have such a strong background? If she had such a strong background, would the Shen family in Suzhou dare to kick her out of the house?

"What? Shen Lingfei? ”

"It's over, it's her!"

However, as soon as Liao Dake heard Shen Lingfei's name, he knew that there was trouble. He felt a little tricky about this at the time. In fact, he didn't know how tricky Shen Lingfei would be at that time, it was completely his intuition. However, this matter was directly ordered from above, and he just did it for this inspection. Anyway, with Zhang Gonggong, the most powerful in Nanzhili, on top, what are you worried about? Unexpectedly, after only a few days, the other party came to the door.

This Shen Lingfei really has a tough backstage! Knowing that the backstage of the Jiangyin Inspection Division was a Nanjing town guard eunuch, he dared to call the door directly like this. If they are not arrogant, are there still arrogant people in the world? This is a crime worse than rebellion. Rebellion may still be appeased, and there is still a way to live. offended Gonggong Zhang and the emperor, there was only one way to die.

"Tell the people outside to stand up."

"As long as we resist, we still have a chance!"

"Tell everyone to resist desperately! As long as you block the enemy, each person will be given a hundred taels of silver for the New Year! Tell everyone that Gonggong Zhang has money and power, as long as he repels the enemy, he will be prosperous and rich, and he can wait for him! ”

Liao Dake tried his best to comfort himself, and at the same time desperately cheered up the people below.

In fact, he himself was a little desperate. In the surrounding area of Jiangyin, there were no other troops of the Ming army, and at the beginning, this place was selected as the inspection department, and in order to facilitate the work, the original thousand households were moved away. I didn't expect that now the Inspection Division would be attacked. Now, even if he sends someone to Nanjing for help, it will be too late. The other party is menacing, how is it good?

He couldn't imagine what would happen to him if he fell into the hands of the other party. Since the other party brazenly attacked the Jiangyin Inspection Division, it shows that the other party is not afraid of the consequences at all. Even, the other party may not even take Zhang Yixian in his eyes. For such a group of bandits who are not afraid of heaven and earth, Liao Dake couldn't help but have suicidal thoughts. However, suicide also requires courage, and Liao Dake hesitated, never having the courage to commit suicide.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

No matter what Liao Dake thought, the gunshots outside were getting closer and closer.

Some of the rangers ran backwards desperately, only to be hit by a Mini bullet that flew from nowhere, snapped, and fell to the ground with a heavy bang. Some of the inspectors had not yet lost their breath, so they screamed and crawled into the inside of the yamen. There were also Minnie bullets flying everywhere, hitting all corners of the wall, making a crackling sound. Obviously, the Yamen of the Inspection Department will definitely not be able to hold it.

"My lord, shall we go to the storeroom and hide?"

Someone shouted in horror.

"Good!"

"Go to the storeroom!"

Liao Dake woke up like a dream and hurriedly shouted.

He immediately reacted and ran to the storeroom first.

The warehouse of the inspection department is, of course, very sturdy. How can a place where silver is placed not be strong? It was a dense, windowless room with no windows all around, surrounded by huge stones, and the gaps between the stones could not be inserted by half a finger, and there was only a door the size of a dog's hole in and out. Therefore, the people of the inspection department also call it a dog house.

The filial piety collected by the inspection department is stored in this dog house after it is recorded. Every year in May and December, the silver in the dog house will be taken out, loaded, and then under the protection of heavy soldiers, it will be sent to Nanjing and handed over to the town guard eunuchs. At present, the harvest of the inspection department in the second half of the year is all in the dog house, waiting for the middle of the month to start shipping.

In addition, there are also some precious items stored in the dog house, such as pearls, jade, agate, rubies, sapphires, emeralds, ivory, musk, etc., all of which are extorted by various means during the regular inspections. In addition to ships leaving the Yangtze River estuary, those from overseas are also subject to inspection. This is also part of the oil and water of the inspection department.

Originally, these materials, before the Chinese New Year, were to be sold, exchanged for silver, and then handed over. However, because Zhang Yixian had just come this year, Liao Dake couldn't figure out what he meant, so he temporarily stored these rare items and prepared to send them to Zhang Yixian when he sent the silver in the middle of the month. Unexpectedly, there were still a few days to go, and something happened. It's still such a big deal.

If the silver taels in the dog house and those rare items were plundered by the other party, Liao Dake would be thrown into prison by the angry Zhang Yixian even if he was lucky. Perhaps, he will be scraped alive with a single knife. In desperation, Liao Dake could only get into the inside of the dog house, hold the silver, and wait for someone outside to come to the rescue.

"It only takes five days."

"It only takes five days."

"It only takes five days."

Liao Dake kept cheering himself up.

Someone attacked the Jiangyin Inspection Division, such a big thing, Nanjing will soon know. Nanjing will definitely find a way to send troops to the rescue. Sending troops from Nanjing and marching to Jiangyin took only five days at most. If you're on a boat, it's even faster. As long as he hides in the dog house, takes food and water, and locks the small door of the dog hole from the inside, he can wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

The dog house is a place to store silver, and this small door, naturally, is very sturdy. There are also switches inside to prevent forcible impacts. Even if you use a simmer to slam it, you can't force it out of the way. With such wishful thinking, Liao Dake and a few cronies quickly got into the dog house.

The soldiers of the Tiger Ben Army, who then entered, quickly took control of the entire inspection department yamen. Some of the fighters surrounded the dog house, trying to find a way to attack. The other warriors searched around the yamen, gathered the surviving inspectors and officials, as well as all the family members, and asked Liao Dake about his whereabouts.

Zhang Zhun then came to the front of the dog house, walking back and forth, carefully observing this dense bunker-like house. From the mouth of the captive, Zhang Zhun had already learned that this dog house was the money released by the inspection department. Now, tens of thousands of taels of silver should have been stored inside. For such a harvest, Zhang Zhun is naturally very willing to take the sheep by the hand. How to say, it's not easy to go south, you can't go back empty-handed, right?

"My lord, this is the seized ledger."

"My lord, these people are the accounts of the Inspection Division."

Zhou Yanyu led his team to completely turn the yamen upside down to ensure that there were no armed patrolmen who had slipped through the net. In the end, the relevant account books of the inspection department, as well as three account rooms, were brought to Zhang Zhun.

Zhang Zhun flipped through it casually and found that the records inside were too fragmentary and complicated, and he didn't have the heart to look at it at all, so he closed the account books, glanced at the three account rooms, and said casually: "Let me ask you, how much silver is there in this dog house?" ”

The three account offices were trembling, and they didn't dare to raise their heads at all. After a few moments, one of them stammered, "Report...... The king, a total of 113,400 taels of silver. ”

Zhang Zhun's eyebrows rose slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "How much?" ”

The bookkeeper was even more appalled, and did not dare to answer. The other account office was also nervous, for fear that these "pirates" would be angry and ask for their net worth, and said incoherently: "The king...... Yes, yes, yes...... 110,000 ...... Three thousand four hundred and twenty ...... Silver ......"

Zhang Zhun finally heard it clearly this time, and it turned out to be 113,400 taels of silver. Well, it sounds like a pretty good number, although not as much as it could be, but it's also so-so. 110,000 taels of silver, throw it at Xue Zhidie's shipyard, and at least twenty sword tooth ships can come out. Take a trip to Jiangnan and earn back twenty saber tooth ships, this kind of business is not bad!

However, considering the ability of Ming Dynasty officials to do accounts, Zhang Zhun had deep doubts about this figure. He glanced at the three of them again, and said coldly: "If the money in the dog house does not match the one in the account book, I want your life!" ”

The third accountant hurriedly said, "The king spares his life, the king spares his life!" The three of us are just in charge of the accounts, and we really don't know how much money is used in the dog house! Maybe it's 130,000 taels, maybe it's 150,000 taels, in short, it's just more, not less! The king will spare his life! ”

Zhang Zhun's eyes couldn't help but light up. What the? Will it be more, not less? 130,000 taels? One hundred and fifty thousand taels? Doesn't this mean that not only is there no deficit, but there is some extra money? No way! These bookkeepers must be lying! How could there be more than the ledger in the treasury of the Ming Dynasty? Could it be that the sun of the Jiangyin Inspection Division came out from the west?

The third account room found that Zhang Zhun's face was not good, obviously suspecting him of lying, and hurriedly said: "Wang, you don't know anything. In the dog house, some money is the private goods of the inspection adults, and it is not recorded in the account. There is also a bonus to honor the adults in Nanjing, which is also not recorded. Originally, those bonuses were to be sent before the end of the year, but now they are all in the dog house, and they add up to tens of thousands of taels of silver. It's just that the villain really doesn't know how many there are! ”

Zhang Zhun nodded, believing the words of these account rooms, so he waved his hand and asked Zhou Yanyu to take them down for the time being. Accidentally, there were more than 100,000 taels of silver, even Zhang Zhun couldn't help but be a little fluttering. It was not easy for him to suppress his fluttering mood. This money hasn't fallen into my pocket yet, so I'm glad!

"My lord, the captive said, Liao Dake is in the dog house."

Soon, Zhang Youcai came to Zhang Zhun and reported.

"Bring the explosives pack!"

Zhang Zhun looked at the structure of the dog house and said indifferently.

The explosives package brought from Aoshan City is finally about to be used.

This kennel is a store of silver, and even if the explosion is fierce, it is believed that the silver will not break. As for the people inside, I'm sorry, I can only ask you to be wronged, I hope you are rich and rich, and your life is boundless!

Soon, Zhang Youcai and others were ready. In order to blow up the dog hole, Zhang Youcai stuffed a 250-pound oversized explosive bag into the small door of the dog hole. After everyone took refuge, he lit the fuse. The fuse snorted and soon burned out.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, the mountain collapsed and the ground cracked.

Half of the dog house was blown down.

Silver ingots with white flowers tumbled out of it, as if a silver mountain had suddenly collapsed. Inside the silver ingot, there were more than a dozen figures that had been blown up. Most of them were all stunned. A small number of them, bleeding from the seven orifices, were apparently shocked to death on the spot.

The soldiers of the Tiger Army, on the one hand, cleared out the silver and put it into sacks. On the one hand, pull these confused people out, pull them in front of the captives, and identify them one by one.

"He is Liao Dake."

The inspector who had made meritorious contributions quickly identified Liao Dake.
