Chapter 210: Twenty Voyages
Zhang Mu only felt that the sky was shaking on the deck, and the panicked roars and screams in his ears were endless.
Although the artillery of the Ming Dynasty was far less advanced than that of modern times, it was extremely powerful to fight this sea ship made of wood.
Zhao Wu had been in the army for many years, grabbed Zhang Mu, dragged him up from the ground, and ran towards the cabin.
Suddenly, Zhang Mu heard a loud bang behind him, and when he turned around, he saw that the mast of the sea ship was broken from it and smashed directly into the bow of the ship.
In the chaos, many people abandoned the ship to escape.
Ships never take advantage of the seaport.
Except during the Sino-Japanese War, there were exceptions to that, under normal circumstances, ships had no chance of winning.
As soon as these sailors saw that it was firing on the dock, they understood everything, even if they thought about it with their toes, they knew that the court had turned its face.
There is an obstacle in front and a siege behind you, which is obviously a trap, and if you don't abandon the boat to escape, you can only wait for the end of the pot.
Zhao Wu and Zhang Mu arrived at the side of the ship, and from above, it was still very high.
"Boom Boom"
There was another earth-shattering loud noise, like thunder on the earth, deafening.
Ningcun is a coastal defense border guard, a forward position to deal with the Japanese invaders, there are at least seven or eight artillery pieces, and the surrounding guards are densely packed, and they respond to every call.
Zhang Mu gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go, run for your life first." ”
With that, he took a step back, got up and jumped, and jumped straight into the river.
Zhao Wu and others also fell into the water one after another.
At this moment, the sailors on the ship abandoned the ship one after another, and the calm river for a while was like dumplings full of people.
Fortunately, the range and accuracy of the artillery of the Ming Dynasty were very limited, and it was temporarily safe in the water.
At this time, Zhang Mu heard the roaring sound of war drums in the distance.
Immediately after, from the opposite shore of Ningcun, a small boat appeared. There were about thirty-four of them, and the soldiers on them covered the sky and the sun with flags, like dragons.
Zhang Mu subconsciously understood that this was definitely a carefully arranged encirclement.
In a panic, Zhang Mu only thought that Zhao Qianhu had found out his identity and that Wang Ming had ordered him to arrest him.
Zhao Wushui is very good, he rushed out of the lake one by one, looked into the distance, and shouted: "Go over there." Maybe you can escape. ”
At that moment, Zhao Wu and the others swam towards the northeast with great difficulty, as long as they got ashore, there was still hope of escape.
Seeing the warship approaching, Zhao Wu immediately shouted: "Hold your breath, you pull my clothes." ”
At that moment, he took a deep breath and dived into the water.
Zhang Mu grabbed his belt and was escorted by Zhao Wu and others. Diving into the river, they avoided the officers and soldiers coming from the other side.
More than a dozen people swam vigorously towards the opposite shore, and when they came out of the water, the warships of the imperial court had already exchanged fire with the Wen sailors.
Officers and men on a warship. They were armed with spears and crossbows, and when they approached the water, they began to attack.
The sailors in the water are like fish on a pallet of meat to be slaughtered. Incidentally, a strong martial artist got on the boat, and he was quickly hacked to death with a knife.
The officers and soldiers of these border guards, although they began to slowly become corrupt in recent years. But in the end, this is the Hongwu Dynasty, which is far less weak than in the Zhengde period, and it is still very certain to deal with these sailors.
Zhao Wu and the others dragged Zhang Mu to the shore, although the officers and soldiers found more than a dozen of them who had slipped through the net, but they had no time to separate, and they were still killing the sailors in the water to earn military merits.
"What about Lord Li? Why didn't you come? Zhao Wu climbed out of the water and hurriedly asked.
Zhang Mu didn't know what was going on here, Wen Desheng obviously didn't know that Zhao Qianhu would turn his face, otherwise he wouldn't get off the boat so easily, it seems that there must be something going on here.
Immediately said: "Run for your life first, Master Li should arrive later." It's more complicated than we think. After Zhang Mu finished speaking, he hurriedly swung towards the reeds on the bank of the river.
At this moment, Zhao Qianhu, who was commanding in Ning Village, looked at the eight sea boats in the river, and a raging fire was ignited, and his solemn expression gradually showed a smile.
Eight big ships, so many sailors, and then reported to the imperial court, and another reward was not a problem.
And what made him even more relieved was that after looking at the Wen family's eyes for so many years, he finally had this evil breath in his heart.
As for King Tan, he is not worried at all, anyway, the goods this time are not King Tan's, and King Tan is just looking for an agent here, who can't do it?
After destroying the Wen family, the trade of seafood in Wenzhou has now fallen into his own hands, and he really imagines that he is not far from being promoted to become rich.
With his hands behind his back, he slowly came out of the guard, and the sound of killing in the distance shook the sky, and the fire burned the sky.
Screams, roars, and fires came and went.
"Give me the order to go down and kill me hard. Don't let any of them run. Zhao Qianhu sneered.
Wen Desheng was pressed to the ground by the flowers, and he was dumbfounded to see his cargo ship burning in the fire.
"The surname is Zhao, what do you mean by that?" Wen Desheng roared.
"Master Wen, haven't you seen it yet? You pretended to be a widow, smuggled seafood, and offended Tianwei, and this official can only handle it impartially. Zhao Qianhu looked back at Wen Desheng as if he was looking at a dog and said.
"Okay, you bastard, our Wen family has treated you well all these years? Since you said that you will turn your face? You burned my ship today, do you think my Wen family will sit back and die? Wen Desheng was already on the verge of collapse and roared at Zhao Qianhu.
"This ......, hehe, Master Wen, I can't hide it. When you are cleaned up tonight, and you are all stolen, Commander Zhou will personally take people to raid your Wen family tomorrow morning. There is a saying that the people don't fight with the officials, why don't the sons understand this truth? Zhao Qianhu sneered.
Wen Desheng immediately understood that all this was secretly planned by Commander Zhou.
For a while, he only felt that the world was spinning, and the six gods had no master.
Tomorrow morning, the Wen family will usher in a catastrophe, and the smuggling of seafood alone will be enough for his Wen family to be beheaded.
As for the greasy in these years, Commander Zhou can naturally settle it, anyway, the emperor is far away, and if he is not surnamed Zhou, he can say whatever he wants?
Zhou Commander is destroying the corpse, as long as the Wen family is destroyed, the evidence of his corruption and perversion of the law will disappear.
In addition, the confiscated property of the Wen family is enough for him to make a good fortune.
Wen Desheng couldn't help but burst into tears, it was indeed because he was too careless.
I always thought that Commander Zhou and they were grasshoppers on the same rope, and they couldn't run away from him or jump on you.
As a result, Commander Zhou turned his face and caught the Wen family off guard.
Hula Building is about to fall, who can turn the tide?
Wen Desheng was already discouraged at the moment, crying like a dog.
Zhao Qianhu looked at Wen Desheng coldly, turned around and went directly towards the dock.
At this moment, a scout hurriedly reported: "My lord, dozens of people have fled to the shore. Do we chase or not? ”
Zhao Qianhu's narrow cheeks twitched, and he said in a cold voice: "It's okay, Commander Zhou has already given orders to the officers and soldiers of the other guards. They can't run. ”
For tonight, they have been preparing for a long time, if it weren't for Zhang Mu's appointment, they would have cleaned up the Wen family a long time ago.
Zhao Qianhu is fearless.
Just as he was secretly complacent, another scout hurriedly ran over and shouted, "My lord, it's not good, there seems to be a ship on the sea in the distance." And there are quite a few of them. ”
Zhao Qianhu was suddenly startled and hurriedly walked into the distance. (To be continued......)
