Chapter 494: The Disappearance of the Admiral of the Fujian Navy Division......
"Bold, Wu Liang, this governor is on the orders of the governor and the general of Fuzhou, could it be that you are a general soldier, and you want to disobey the order??!" Cang Bao really made this guy angry, it was too rude. And when he saw the expression on Wu Liang's face, Cang Bao suddenly felt chills all over his body, like the feeling of being stared at by a hungry beast looking at its prey.
"Xia Guan didn't say that, but I didn't expect that the kindness of my colleagues in the Taiwan government was not appreciated by the Admiral at all, which really has to be disappointing." The smile on Wu Liang's face gradually turned cold, and he stood upright, standing so straight and arrogant,
"Don't be rude to Lord Admiral!" Li Changgeng also shouted loudly, his hand was already pressed on the waist knife, with an expression of choosing someone to devour.
"You dare to be rude to our general?!" More than a dozen generals who were originally standing behind suddenly stood up, and the sound of choking was endless, more than ten snow-bright knives, and seven or eight revolvers were all pointed at Li Changgeng's head.
Before the war knife in his hand was unsheathed, it had already caused the two men of Wu Liang who came forward to knock them to the ground, and the waist knife on his waist was also dropped, and his movements were swift, just like those habitual bandits who often played with meat tickets.
Li Changgeng never imagined that the other party would suddenly make a move, and in a blink of an eye, he was overturned to the ground by the uniform, and couldn't help but scold angrily, but he quickly stuffed a ball of rags into his mouth, and rolled his eyes wildly, in addition to humming his nose to express his dissatisfaction, his hands and feet had already let the two guys tie up with a hemp rope that seemed to have been prepared a long time ago.
Everything happened in a short instant, and everyone was stunned to see that Li Shen was overturned and then directly packed, Cangbao's eyes almost fell to the ground, and his chin was dislocated for a long time.
"What are you doing here?! Mr. Wu, you, you're simply rebelling?! The supervising general behind Cangbao jumped out in time, put on a loyal posture to protect the stunned Cangbao, pulled out his waist knife and pointed at Wu Liang and scolded.
The soldiers who came ashore shouted and pulled out the weapons on their waists, and looked at Wu Liang and the others murderously one by one, just waiting for the Cangbao to give an order, and Wu Liang would be killed on the spot.
--------------------
"Tut-tut...... Is it more than people? Wu Liang shrugged his shoulders very gracefully, pulled out the revolver on his waist, and fired it into the sky, a crisp gunfire startled Cangbao and the others, but before Cangbao could scold him, the situation took a sharp turn.
The soldiers who were beating gongs and drums and raising flags and firing cannons suddenly threw everything in their hands aside, and the black and shiny barrels of guns were exposed like a long forest. The smiling faces became extremely hideous, and their eyes were as cold as the howling northern wind.
And on the two-story buildings on the dock, there were also countless soldiers in black clothes and black helmets, and their hands were also full of those strange muskets. What made Cangbao and the others even more stunned was that the ground floor was also opened, but it was only people who were exposed inside, and dozens of artillery pieces used their hideous muzzles to face the sailors anchored on the dock.
This is not over, the giant ships of the Xiyi people who were scattered out of the waterway just now, or those merchant ships of the Great Qing Kingdom, all opened one porthole after another, and one by one the naval guns poked out their barrels with strong killing intent, and then slowly forced forward.
Groups of black-clad and black-helmeted soldiers poured onto the decks of the ships, all of them holding swords or guns of strange shapes, and the sound of guns and guns shook the whole port.
The soldiers and horses of that battalion of sailors were still methodically collecting their sails and oars and entering the dock, but unexpectedly, such a change suddenly happened, looking at the outrageously dense artillery and firearms, almost all the officers and men of the sailors were stunned and incredulous.
Cang Bao was also completely shocked by the powerful and terrifying armed force displayed by Wu Liang at this moment, and after a long time, he came back to his senses and glanced at those Taiwan officials, but saw that one or two had numb expressions and dull expressions, and their eyes were full of pity when they looked at him, or should they be said to be a kind of sympathy.
"You're going to rebel?! Wu Liang, you dare to rebel?! After all, Cangbao was born as a martial artist, although he was now surrounded by so many black-clothed soldiers, he still shouted angrily: "Wu Liang, you bastard, you are sorry for Junen, as the chief soldier of the court, you dare to rebel!" Do you think that with just these people of yours, you can be the king and the hegemon? ”
Wu Liang smiled, slowly leveled the revolver held high, and the shaking muzzle pointed in the direction of Cangbao: "Rebellion? Cut, don't say it so uninnovatively, Lao Tzu this is not called a rebellion, Lao Tzu is called an uprising, it is called a revolution, you know? A bun of dirt buns who have never seen the world. ”
"The bureau arranged today, originally I wanted to attract that Changlin or Kui Lun, who would have thought that the big fish didn't come, and only caught a loach, but it was also swimming in the water, and it was worth the fare." Wu Liang finished nagging, and the gun was aimed at Cangbao again.
"Tell your people, don't act rashly, put down your arms immediately, otherwise, you will be killed, if you surrender, I will not die." Wu Liang's roar echoed over the dock.
"Wu Liang, do you know that if you do this, it is tantamount to forcing yourself to a dead end, this governor advises you to turn back early, as for the grievances between you and Hadang'a, this governor will definitely go to the court and the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang and the general of Fuzhou, and give you justice.!" Cang Bao's face turned pale, and his legs were a little weak, after all, although Cang Bao was a military general, he was just a banner man who climbed to the commander by virtue of his grace and relationship, and he had never been on the battlefield, where did he imagine that one day he would let people point at his head with so many firearms? Not to mention the courage and determination to bravely sacrifice himself for the Qing Dynasty, being able to stay sober and speak in an orderly manner already shows that his courage is already quite outstanding.
Wu Liang frowned, as if he was really thinking about Cangbao's suggestion, and after a short while, Wu Liang raised his head: "Admiral Cang, since you are so righteous, then I, Wu, can't help but express something, so let's let your people put down their weapons immediately, as long as you don't worry about weapons, everything is negotiable." What do you think? Otherwise, if you regret it and take Lao Tzu directly to Fuzhou, where will Lao Tzu cry, do you say yes? ”
"This is impossible, Wu Liang, this governor warns you one last time, don't get an inch. Otherwise......" Before Cang Bao finished speaking, the revolver in Wu Liang's hand was raised again, and he pulled the trigger, and he heard a crisp gunshot and a terrible scream.
Cang Bao covered his left ear and howled miserably, the bright red blood couldn't stop surging out along his fingers, the general who was originally standing in front of Cang Bao was extremely pale, his legs trembled like a willow in the wind, and the war knife in his hand fell directly to the ground.
"Silly B, you really don't dare to shoot when you think of Lao Tzu, do you?!" Wu Liang grinned and grinned, and the revolver in his hand seemed to have magical power, attracting the frightened eyes of those Cangbao's personal soldiers.
"Lao Tzu warned one last time, drop your weapons, surrender your guns and don't kill, and those who resist will be killed on the spot!"
--------------------
Half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and Changlin and Kui Lun, who were waiting for the news in Fuzhou, gradually realized that something was wrong from the impatience at the beginning.
But after thinking about it, I think it's impossible, after all, when Cangbao went to Taiwan, he brought a whole battalion of sailors to go, even if someone in Taiwan wants to be unfavorable to Cangbao, there will always be someone who escapes to send a letter to Fuzhou, right?
In half a month, even a broken ship can make two or three trips back and forth in the Taiwan Strait, but there is no news at all, how can this not make Changlin and others frightened.
"Still no news? So what kind of fame is Cangbao doing? Although there is that kind of thought, but Changlin really doesn't want to really think about that aspect, today's Qing Dynasty, there are enough internal and external troubles, if something really happens in Taiwan, Changlin really doesn't know if he can bear the anger of Qianlong.
Kui Lun walked in that hall, Changlin, the governor personally came to inquire about the matter, Kui Lun's heart also scolded his mother, just brought down a lot of corrupt officials, just in the eyes of the Qianlong Emperor has obtained a good impression points, in the blink of an eye, the chief soldier slaughtered a lieutenant general, and then, the commander who went to lead the people did not have the slightest news for half a month.
"The governor has already sent people to inquire about the fishermen and maritime merchants at the Fuzhou wharf, during this time, no one has been to Taiwan, because the general army of Taiwan Town has already declared to the maritime fishermen as early as a month ago that there is a group of unknown pirates who have plundered the Taiwanese merchant ships and fishermen in the strait area, so all ships are allowed to rest and replenish in Penghu, but they are not allowed to go on stage, and after the group of pirates is caught, they will be banned."
"What?!" Quiren couldn't help but look shocked, and paused, his face covered with a dark cloud. "Are you sure?"
Changlin smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Judging from the current situation, who dares to determine whether the affairs of Taiwan Island are true or false?" ”
"Why don't you wait? Maybe there is something in the Taiwan government that has delayed Admiral Nacang's itinerary. Quelen didn't dare to make up his mind easily, so he had to reply.
Changlin nodded: "That's it, our recital has already been handed over, why don't we wait for the emperor's approval, and then we will make a decision, what does the general think?" ”
"Okay, that's all we can do." Kui Lun thought about it, and could only nod helplessly to agree, although he really wanted to send the Fujian sailors over, but the problem is that the Fujian sailors are now withering, and the boats are not in order, if there is really a big problem on the island of Taiwan, if there is a big problem, it will be sent less, maybe it will be equivalent to sending sheep into the mouth of the tiger, and sending too much, in case there are really pirates to attack, then they are not derelict in their duties?
