: Brethra. There is a third update in the evening, so stay tuned! , the cannon roared, and the human voice wailed.

Guo Huaiyi, who was asleep, was suddenly awakened. Sleepy-eyed pushed away the concubine in his arms, and scolded and asked what happened.

Soon, a minion came to report that he had been shelled by an unknown enemy.

"What?"

Guo Huaiyi rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

"Who is so bold? Dare to attack the North Harbor? ”

The voice of the net fell, only to hear the bang!

A large hole was made in the wall, and a cannonball flew into the house and smashed into the stone wall on the other side.

The whole room shook violently, as if it was about to collapse.

Guo Huai consciously covered it with a quilt. The gravel hit Guo Huaiyi's body through the quilt and felt painful.

Putting down the quilt, I saw that the house was in a mess, and the minions who reported the news had fallen to the ground, his head was gone, and there was a large pool of blood on the wall on the right side.

When Guo Huaiyi was stunned, the concubine in the nest suddenly screamed, waking him up.

Guo Huaiyi was taken aback, and slapped the woman in the face, "Damn, didn't you call enough last night?" Hurry up and get dressed! ”

Guo Huaiyi was one of the eighteen Zhizhi under Zheng Yiguan, and was originally one of the twenty-eight joining forces of the Brotherhood Alliance. Later, he was annexed by Zheng Yiguan and became the leader of the Longmen Port Water Village for Zheng Yiguan.

Yesterday, Zheng Yiguan led the main naval army to leave Longmen Port. Ding instructed Guo Huaiyi to guard his house carefully. It's just that there was nothing to do for a long time, and the director Guo Huai took Zheng Yiguan's words as a deaf ear. Zheng Yiguan walked away on the front foot, and he left the water plug of Longmen Port on the back foot, and went to the concubine's house in Xinna, Beigang, to have fun.

At this time, he had already sensed that the enemy was not good, and it could not be a small force, because the small force did not dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head.

Oh no, I hope nothing happens to the water plug!

Hurriedly dressed, Guo Huaiyi came to the courtyard.

The whizzing shells swept overhead, causing him to fall to his knees.

"! What are you afraid of! ”

The cannonballs flying in the sky suddenly made Guo Huaiyi feel the severity of the situation.

There were a few people lying in the courtyard, all of them were his henchmen who had been covered by artillery fire just now, and they had not been spared.

Looking in the direction of Dongshi Village, the cannonballs were flying from that side.

The terrain there is high and condescending, and the entire North Harbor is covered by artillery fire.

By this time, the artillery fire had already begun to extend, shelling towards other targets.

The minions, workers and ordinary people in Beigang had already blown up the pot and fled in all directions, and Guo Huaiyi hurriedly ran to the helm of the Beigang Merchant Gang.

There were still more than 200 minions there, and Guo Huaiyi needed to organize resistance. Otherwise, it is difficult to make a difference.

Guo Huaiyi ran to the Governor of Beigang. Dumbfounded.

Yesterday it was the tallest building in North Harbor. Now it has been flattened, the rudder is in disarray, and the barracks are the first targets to be shelled. Many minions were buried in their sleep in the collapsed barracks. Only a few escaped, hiding in corners, shabbling, disheveled.

Guo Huaiyi secretly screamed that it was over!

Turned around and was about to run towards the dock, preparing to escape back to Longmen Port Water Village.

A minion ran madly and was overwhelmed when he saw the rudder in disarray.

Guo Huaiyi recognized him. He was the head of the North Harbor Docks.

They came here, is it one

Guo Huai grabbed him by the neck one by one. "How's going on over there?" ”

"It's over! It's all over! We were dumplings made! ”

yes

Guo Huaiyi shouted, let go of the minion suddenly, and raised his eyes to look in the direction of the water village.

I saw the black smoke in the sky in the west, and it was already a fire.

The water village was also attacked!

"What the hell is going on?" Guo Huaiyi turned around and asked Na Luo loudly, and Na Luo said with some tears: "Shuizhai is surrounded by dozens of Dutch warships in the Netherlands, and our brothers in Beigang just broke through from all sides, and as a result, all the brothers were beaten back!" ”

Dutch battleships?

Guo Huaiyi was stunned!

Could it be that the Dutch did it ahead of time?

It's a possibility!

Recently, the attitude of the Dutch has become more and more tough. The two fortresses have been completed, and they are taking advantage of the fact that the last ambush of Na Haonan failed and lost the fleet commander to put pressure on Zheng Yiguan and force the interests of Beigang.

At this time, Zheng Yiguan's army left, and all the heavy troops in Beigang were trapped in the water jam of Longmen Port, unable to reinforce Beigang. It's a good time to capture the North Harbor!

Damn it! Red-haired cubs!

Guo Huaiyi scolded in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.

"How many are there?"

"I don't know! I'm afraid it's a few thousand! ”

"How many more brothers do we have?"

"It's all gone!"

The minions gestured to the dozen or so people standing behind him outside. They were the only ones left.

"The brethren mingled with the common people. Run along! ”

"So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and change your clothes! ”

Guo Huaiyi couldn't take care of it much at this time, so he hurriedly changed into the people's clothes and blended into the crowd of ordinary people.

※※

In the eyes of a thousand miles, Captain Liu Hu saw that Beigang had become a mess and knew that the time had come to attack.

"Stop shelling! Infantry advance! ”

The trumpet sounded, and orders were given one step at a time. Soon Li Han and Liu Huiwen ordered to stop the shelling. The marines, east, west, north, south, and under the orders of their respective commanders, began to slowly advance towards the North Harbor.

Poop!

Captain Liu Hu drew his command knife, and the blade pointed to Beigang in the direction of downhill.

"Forward!"

The drums and trumpets suddenly sounded, and the Marines stepped on the drums. Listening to the sound of the trumpet, he raised his musket and shook brightly

"Let's go!"

The orders of the company commanders were issued, and the marines slowly advanced in the direction of the North Harbor in company and platoon units.

The village of Beigang is arranged in the middle, with a wharf to the west and rice paddies on the southeast, north and south.

At this time, it is the time of the final harvest of the three-crop rice, and the paddy field has been drained. From the northwest, northeast, southeast, and southwest, the Marines set up a long straight line in the rice fields. At the same time, it is advancing towards the North Port.

At this time, the crowd of ordinary people in Beigang had already fled outside, and when they saw the unknown army advancing from all directions, they immediately began to retreat in fright.

It's just that there are too many ordinary people fleeing. For a while, the front wanted to retreat, but the back pushed the front forward.

Captain Liu Hu rode on his horse and supervised the battle at the back of the line.

Seeing that the people did not retreat, he immediately frowned, waved his hand and ordered to fire.

"Stand!"

The drums stopped, and the Marines stopped at the same time.

"Prepare"

The ammo has already been reloaded, and at this point you can only fire by filling the clockwork.

"Fire!"

The order was given, and the Marines immediately raised their guns and fired.

Bang bang bang!

A volley of gunfire rang out. Hundreds of projectiles were fired at the crowd. Immediately, countless people were shot and fell down one after another.

After the smoke passed, the first round of platoon guns had all been fired.

"Repeatedly! Gun on the shoulder! Take two steps back! ”

"Three or four in a row! Take three steps forward! Gun under the shoulder! ”

"Prepare"

"Fire!"

Bang bang bang!

Marines rotate in two companies, alternating fire. The whole is two steps back and three steps forward. Slowly approaching.

100 meters apart. In the face of the continuous platoon attacks of the marines, the civilians on the opposite side fell in pieces. Soon the people in front were in a hurry and squeezed back. Eventually, the crowd began to retreat backwards.

Soon, the people knew that they couldn't get out, so they immediately ran back in a hurry, rushed to their homes, closed the door and hid.

In this way, after several rounds of volley attacks, the Marines forced tens of thousands of civilians back. It was able to drive along the lì into the North Port.

The marines came to loot, but not to rob the poor people, but to rob the Beigang merchant gang and the Beigang Zheng Mansion.

Ordinary people have taken refuge in their homes. This is just right, but it is the province that makes Captain Liu Hu embarrassed.

In Deng Haonan's words, if we occupy Dongfan Island in the future, these ordinary people still need to serve us. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to proportion.

Liu Hu's target was the helmsman of the Beigang Merchant Gang and the mansion of Zheng Yiguan.

Soon, a section of the Marines barricaded off the streets. and shouted, "We are here to rob Zheng Yiguan." No innocent will be harmed. Irrelevant people stay in their own homes! If it is to take in Zheng Yiguan's personality, don't worry! ”

These words immediately reassured the people of Beigang, grab Zheng Yiguan, grab it! Anyway, what he has is money, after robbing him. He's just like us people!

This group of ordinary people suddenly had a sense of schadenfreude. I don't think the robbers outside are hateful, and I hope that this group of robbers will rob Zheng Yiguan fiercely, so that their hearts will be balanced. At this time, Guo Huaiyi had nowhere to hide, so he had to return to the helm with more than 20 minions. Unfortunately. There are also dozens of minions who have nowhere to hide. Hide inside the main rudder.

Seeing that Guo Huai arrived at the helm, he thought that the brothers from Longmen Port Water Village had come to reinforce him. Unexpectedly, seeing that Guo Huaiyi was alone, he suddenly wilted like a deflated ball.

Just as he was about to think about it, the outside was already surrounded by Na Haonan's marines, and Liu Hu sent someone to shout.

"Listen to the people inside! You have been surrounded, and those who know each other have come out and surrendered. Otherwise, you won't be killed! ”

Guo Huaiyi hid behind a ruined wall and secretly glanced outside.

I saw that five or six hundred guns had surrounded the three layers of the main rudder and the outer three layers of the rudder. The clothes are the same as ordinary people, but Guo Huai has a sharp look, and at a glance, the guy they are using is an authentic Spanish Mushkert arquebus, but there is an extra bright bayonet, which he has never seen.

Obviously deliberately concealing his identity!

Guo Huaiyi thought in his heart, and shouted: "Where are the friends outside!" This is the realm of Zheng Yiguan of the Brotherly Alliance, are you going to the wrong place? ”

Liu Hu stepped forward and said, "I'm not afraid to hide it from you!" We're here to rob you Zheng Yiguan today! Not for anything else, Zheng Yiguan's rich oil, let's be greedy, come and borrow some money to spend! Just for money. Don't force the brothers to do it! It's not good to come out sideways! ”

Guo Huaiyi knew that he had no choice now. Said: "Brother is willing to offer 100,000 taels of silver, please raise your noble hands!" ”

"! What about you sending Hanako? Liu Feng urged the war horse, stepped forward and said in the Cantonese dialect: "100,000 taels is not enough to pay for the military expenses of the Dutch?" ”

Guo Huai was single-minded: Sure enough, it was the Dutch who helped, no wonder they were so bold! Listening to their accents, it seems to be from Guangdong, isn't it the Chao Gang?

Guo Huaiyi's heart was shocked, there was an accident on the Fengci cargo ship at the border of the Chao Gang, could it be that they did it too? Hurriedly changed his words at the moment and said loudly: "Brother said wrong! It's 200,000 taels! Please drink tea with all the Chaobang brothers! ”

Liu Feng and Liu Hu looked at each other and smiled. Liu Feng continued to act. Changed to the Fujian dialect and shouted: "Grass! Don't talk nonsense, we're not from the Tide Gang! ”

Guo Huaiyi heard that the other party suddenly changed to the Fujian dialect, and explained to the Chao Gang, and his intuition at the moment told him that the people outside were members of the Chao Gang.

"Damn Sully! Last time, we hacked more than a million silver goods, and this time we came to rob Beigang again. Really

Guo Huaiyi scolded secretly in his heart, and was about to speak, but he heard another person say: "Little Liuzi." Why do you talk so much? If you don't speak, my brothers won't treat you like a dumb person! ”

Liu Feng scolded again in Cantonese: "I'm cǎo! Is Lao Tzu's name called by you, the faint king? ”

Guo Huaiyi's heart was shocked, sure enough, Xiao Liuzi, a member of the Chao Gang, was Wu Liuqi's nickname, and Duanjun was Yang Guang's nickname, these two guys were all one of the seven leaders of the Chao Gang.

Outside, Captain Liu Hu laughed secretly in his heart, this Liu Feng and Zhan Zengyong sang and harmonized, and those who didn't know really thought they were one of the seven gang leaders of the Chao Gang!

scolded in Cantonese at the moment: "You two shut up Lao Tzu!" We're here to rob. I'm not here to scold! ”

Then he stopped for a while, and scolded Guo Huai inside: "Get out of here, otherwise Lao Tzu will break you!" ”

As soon as Guo Huaiyi knew that 200,000 taels of silver could not send away the people of the Chao Gang, he would be able to take 200,000 taels out, and if he had more, he would have no choice, and he needed the nod of the people of the Zheng Mansion.

At that moment, he hurriedly ordered dozens of his subordinates to raise their swords and guns above their heads, and walked out in line.

Bringing Guo Huaiyi to Liu Hu, Liu Hu asked, "Where are all the goods and silver of your Beigang merchant gang?" ”

After Guo Huaiyi knew that they were members of the Chao Gang, he was very cooperative, pointed to several large courtyards in the north, and said: "Where are all the goods of the Beigang Merchant Gang, please accept the big boss."

Guo Huaiyi thinks that Liu Hu is Su Li. I wanted to call Su Dang's house. But the words came to the lips. But he did not dare to speak. If it was really Su Li, if he screamed, the other party would definitely kill people, and his life would be gone!

Liu Hu knew what he thought, didn't say anything, and said to Liu Feng: "Little Liuzi." Take someone to receive the goods. What are the Dutch waiting to be shipped away? ”

Liu Feng nodded, and took people to collect the warehouse of the Beigang merchant gang.

Liu Hu asked again: "Where is the silver hidden?" ”

Guo Huaiyi asked in a low voice, "I don't know how much the head of the house wants?" If there are too many, the small ones will not be able to call the shots."

Liu Hu glared at him and said, "Do you call the shots?"

Then he took out the hand mirror and the trigger. opened, Guo Huai's legs were weak, he almost knelt on the ground, and hurriedly pointed to the house in front of him, and said, "The account is there, and the money is there!" ”

Liu Hu glanced at Guo Huaiyi with disdain, and ordered someone to go to the account room to count the silver taels.

After the treasury in the tent was smashed open, it was quickly counted, and the scattered pieces of silver were added together. is only less than 300,000 taels of silver, which is too far from Zheng Yiguan's net worth.

Liu Hu frowned, and Zhan Zengyong stepped forward and whispered, "It's impossible for the Beigang Merchant Gang to be like this!" ”

Liu Hu nodded. Turning to Guo Huai, his eyes suddenly became sharp.

Zhan Zengyong rode on his horse and drew his saber with a bang, reaching the back of Guo Huaiyi's neck. scolded: "*** dare to fool us? Why is Zheng Yiguan's lair so much silver? ”

Guo Huai always felt that the back of his neck was cold and swishing. His legs were weak, and he said in a trembling voice: "The boss spares his life, how dare the little one talk nonsense?" The helmsman is just leaving some money here for the workers to pay, that's all! ”

Liu Hu said coldly: "Lao Tzu put his words aside, if you are not satisfied today, you will start killing!" But if you can't come up with five million taels of silver. I'll kill you now! ”

Guo Huaiyi listened to five million taels of silver one by one? was about to pass out immediately, but his neck touched Zhan Zengyong's knife. It tingled his nerves, and he immediately came to his senses.

Crying and shouting, "The master spares his life." The little one is just a watchdog, where is the five million taels of silver?

Seeing that Liu Hu was impatient, he immediately begged for mercy: "Don't, don't!" I say! It's true that there are no small ones, but the Zheng Mansion has them."

"Where is the Zheng Mansion?"

Liu Hu turned his head, and Zhan Zengyong shouted: "Say it quickly!" ”

Guo Huaiyi secretly said in his heart: If you don't satisfy them at this time, your life will be gone! Then I have to be sorry for Zheng Yiguan!

Compared with his small life, Zheng Yiguan's power is no longer to be feared.

Zheng Yiguan's family is in the largest mansion in the north!

After Guo Huaiyi said about Zheng Yiguan's family, his whole body seemed to fall apart and he collapsed to the ground.

Damn it! Whatever you want!

Liu Hu and the others glanced at each other, and they all felt that this trip was worthwhile, but they didn't expect Zheng Yiguan to take his family from Quanzhou Mansion to Beigang!

It's really hard to find a place to step on iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it!

He inquired about Guo Huaiyi again, and learned that there were only more than 300 people in Zheng's mansion, so he immediately sent 1,000 marines to quickly surround Zheng's mansion.

The Zheng Mansion had long been on guard, and more than 300 Ding were on guard in the courtyard wall with guns, led by Gan Hui, one of the eighteen Zhi generals. Gan Hui was already anxious at this time, and originally sent people to take advantage of the chaos to escape with Zheng Yiguan's family, but unfortunately all exits were blocked. I couldn't get out, so I had to retreat and defend it.

However, he knew the situation, the other side had cannons and muskets, and was well armed, apparently coming prepared, and there was little hope of escaping.

It's just that it doesn't matter if Gan Hui is dead. There are Zheng Yiguan's two-year-old brothers Zheng Zhifeng and Zheng Zhiguan in the mansion, and Shi Lang, the son of the military advisor Shi Dahan. Zheng Yiguan's uncle Huang Cheng, and his stepfather Li Dan's son Li Guozhu.

Although Zheng Yiguan's wife Tian Chuan and son Zheng Chenggong were still in Pingliang and did not come to Beigang. But these people in front of him are all very important people of Zheng Yiguan, and once they fall into the hands of the other party, the consequences will be unimaginable.

At this moment, Liu Hu's men and horses had already surrounded the three outer layers of Zheng Mansion.

"Listen to the people inside! Hand over all the gold and silver treasures and you will be spared death! ”。 If you want to know what happened next, please log in to Mandarin, more chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!
