Commander Zhou came in a hurry this time, and only brought less than 300 personal soldiers with him, while Li Yunchang here has a guard's men and horses, and there are also warships.

He just had some thoughts, and he didn't dare to move now.

immediately said with a smile on his face: "That's not what my subordinates meant." How dare the lower officials compete with adults? It's just that a small subordinate doesn't know what happened to collide with the adult, and the people in the small place have never seen the world, so please don't worry about him in general. After the little one leads the people, he leaves immediately. ”

Liu Yunchang knew that if the tiger returned to the mountain today, there would inevitably be another incident, so he secretly glanced back at Zhang Mu.

Zhang Mu nodded slightly, Li Yunchang stretched out his hand and gently stroked his beard, and said in a deep voice: "Lord Zhou, about this matter, let's take a step to speak." ”

When Commander Zhou heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward, Li Yunchang turned around and left, and he followed.

"Commander Zhou, it turned out to be a misunderstanding, the Qianhu surnamed Zhao spoke too much Meng Lang, in front of the three armies, I naturally wanted to arrest him. However, if you intercede for him, I still have to give you this face. Li Yunchang said with a smile.

Commander Zhou suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, he thought that Li Yunchang arrested Zhao Qianhu, it was Li Yunchang who had the information that Pan Shiwei indulged in the smuggling of the Wen family, but now when he heard it, he guessed that most of it was by mistake, so he was relieved that most of it was relieved, as for the capture of the Wen family, and then he would think of a way.

What he was most worried about was that if Zhao Qianhu couldn't endure the torture, if he vomited, where would he be able to run? He hurriedly smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you, thank you." ”

"You don't have to thank me, our people who lead the troops naturally have to think about their subordinates, otherwise who will be willing to give you their lives? Go, I'll take you. Li Yunchang said with a smile.

Commander Zhou was even more relieved, and followed Li Yunchang towards Ning Village.

When they arrived at the gate of Ningcun, they were already more than a thousand meters away from the wharf, and the personal soldiers commanded by Zhou were thrown away from afar.

Li Yunchang smiled: "You wait here." I'm going to let him out. ”

Commander Zhou hurriedly thanked him, and Li Yunchang turned around and left.

Commander Zhou was secretly anxious, and his mind was thinking about how to find Wang Ming next and settle the matter of Li Yunchang, after all, there were more than seventy sailors in the Wen family's smuggling fleet in his hands, and as long as he was interrogated, he was afraid that he would not be able to bear anything.

However, as long as Wang Mingken is circling inside, this matter may not be exposed.

When he was calculating, more than 100 people suddenly rushed out of the Ning Village Office. Commander Zhou was caught off guard, Rao was still pressed to the ground because he had divine powers.

Then he was tied up by five flowers, and Commander Zhou struggled desperately: "Presumptuous, what are you doing here?" ”

At this moment, Li Yunchang came out of the crowd, pointed at Commander Zhou and said angrily: "Idiot, your subordinates have already confessed, you are the commander of Pan Shiwei." Accepting bribes from the Wen family to smuggle seafood. is afraid that the matter will be exposed, and he is ready to kill people. If it hadn't been for the timely arrival of the officer, you would have almost succeeded. Don't be honest yet! ”

Commander Zhou was stunned directly as if five thunderbolts had hit the top.

Immediately, he said angrily: "My lord. Wronged. ”

"Wronged fart, drag me down." Li Yunchang waved his hand, and Commander Zhou was taken away.

At this moment, the pro-soldiers commanded by the dock last week faintly heard Commander Zhou's screams. Just as they were about to move, the archers around them opened their longbows, and suddenly people rushed over and surrounded them.

Li Yunchang took his personal soldiers to the front of the battle. shouted loudly: "Pan Shiwei commanded Zhou Cang, accepted bribes, colluded with the Japanese robbers, and intended to rebel. Now that he has been captured by the general, why don't you surrender quickly? Otherwise, you will be killed. ”

The personal soldiers who followed Commander Zhou saw that the general trend had gone, and they were panicked, and Li Yunchang was so crowded that they hurriedly put down their weapons.

Then Li Yunchang's soldiers rushed over and tied them up.

When everything was in order, the sailors began to clear the battlefield.

Zhang Mu stood on the dock, watching the Wen family's sea ship being engulfed in fire little by little, and sighed secretly in his heart.

If it weren't for the closure and ban on the sea, businessmen like the Wen family would not have to bribe the coastal defense guards and sit on their own business justifiably. And the officers and soldiers of Panshiwei naturally did not have to risk being beheaded to condone the Wen family's smuggling.

The Ming Dynasty set up customs in several natural ports, and the annual income is more than several times the current treasury income.

The coastal areas have regained their prosperity and prosperity, and the national strength of the Ming Dynasty far exceeds that of the Song and Tang dynasties.

The treasury has money, and when you deal with Meng Yuan, you have capital, what are you afraid of him?

It's a pity that a ban made all this a phantom.

What happened today, the Wen family did nothing wrong, if the closure of the sea is not removed, the Wen family will emerge more and more.

Coastal defense officers and soldiers will become more and more corrupt, and it is foreseeable that in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the outbreak of Japanese pirates is not an uncommon thing.

"How much money did you press on this cargo?" Li Yunchang asked.

"Forty thousand." When Zhang Mu said this, he felt a pain in his heart.

"What are you going to do next?" Li Yunchang then asked.

"When the Wen family goes to sea this time, they will inevitably find a deal with the Japanese invaders. From the mouths of these sailors they can ask where the delivery is located. Isn't Master Li going to make a career again? Zhang Mu said with a smile.

Li Yunchangdu's eyes lit up, patted Zhang Mu on the shoulder and said, "You kid is really smart." So what are you waiting for? ”

"Let's go and grab some of the goods first, so that our brothers can change into civilian clothes. After cleaning up the battlefield, we went to sea. With these sailors here, there is no need to worry about finding the Japanese pirates. It's a pity that Wen Desheng ran away, otherwise he would have returned with a full load today. Zhang Mu sighed lightly and said.

Li Yunchang said with a smile: "Let the Wen family run rampant for a few days, and after we capture Haikou, even if Wen Desheng is on the run, we can ask them about them from Haikou's mouth." At that time, these corrupt officers and soldiers of the Wen family and Pan Shiwei will be speechless. Or do you think about the problem thoughtfully. ”

Zhang Mu said with a smile: "I have suffered a lot of losses, so I have to think more." Officialdom is like a battlefield, and there is no blood in killing. ”

With that, Zhang Mu walked towards Ning Village.

The officers and soldiers began to carry goods from the Wen family's merchant ships, which had not yet been damaged, but fortunately, only four large ships were burned, and although the remaining four ships were full of holes, the goods were still basically there.

When everything was in order, it was already late at night, Li Yunchang and Zhang Mu boarded the boat and went ashore and began to withdraw from the dock.

The remaining officers and soldiers of Ningcun watched Li Yunchang's fleet leave, all of them were like frosted eggplants.

Seeing Commander Zhou and Zhao Qianhu being arrested made them even more worried.

It was destined to be a sleepless night. (To be continued......)
