Chapter 284: Rescue

"Civil uprising? It's a bit interesting, and it seems that the salt merchant really took action. Zheng Guobao listened to the report and did not panic. Since the establishment of mine tax supervisors in various provinces, he has long had experience. Besides, Yangzhou is a rich place, and the people are not sad. On the other hand, the people here have no need to play with their lives.

The premise of raising his arms and exhaling the rod is that he will die here, and if he doesn't, he will die. There is a place to eat and drink, who eats and supports to rebel? Therefore, the civil uprising in Yangzhou has little pressure on him. Ryanstein and his foreign soldiers have already gone out to line up, and more than a hundred red-haired ghosts wrapped in iron can also scare people first.

Ren Yingying is an expert in the civil change, and said at the moment: "Husband, let's leave it to the concubine to deal with." I guarantee that this civil rebellion will be a mess and unorthodox. ”

"Good lady, don't worry. Let's go and see who are the people who come to make trouble, whether it is businessmen or literati who are in a broken boot formation here. It's never too late to see the number of roads and think about it. ”

Outside the yamen, nearly 1,000 people gathered, holding banners high and shouting slogans such as "the sky is three feet high" and "return my blue sky", and the momentum was not small. But ever since Reinstein and his men appeared, they kept backing away.

Ryanstein didn't wear a helmet, he glared at the crowd with a pair of bull's eyes, and the foreign soldiers behind him held arquebuses in their hands, and the arquebuses burned slowly. Wherever the gun was pointed, the shouting immediately stopped.

In terms of power, this flint gun is better than the arquebus. But when it comes to deterrence. This slow-burning inquiring inquirement, as well as when the inquiver burns. The sneering sound was even more terrifying, with so many muskets pressing the formation, those merchants really did not dare to make a mistake.

Someone in the crowd also shouted, "I'm Xiucai." You people, don't you dare to shoot me? Before he finished speaking, a hundred and ten guns were pointed at him.

The man next to him gaged him, "Are you crazy?" This is a Thai Westerner, does he understand what you say? In case you thought you were scolding your ancestors, a row of guns came over. We don't want to die with you. Five taels of silver an hour, shouting two voices is right for him, and he can't play with his life. ”

At this time, there were people from all over Yangzhou, holding banners and pulling the team over, and they kept joining. The team is getting stronger. Some simply sat on the floor, holding only banners and saying nothing. A few people shuttled back and forth to count the number of people, and the little body muttered, "Tell those people in the room, today's meal must be prepared, if you can't see food at noon." The gang had to disperse. It's easy to find a job in Yangzhou, and it's a lot of five taels an hour, but it's boring to eat. ”

When Zheng Guobao came out of the ya, Ren Yingying and Zhang Furong accompanied him and opened the way in front. is the first batch of founding fathers of the Chang'e Foundation, the Eight Heroic Women. These eight people. After this period of hard practice, there are small achievements, and all of them are like frost, like a goddess descending to earth.

The pomp and circumstance of this array is much more eye-catching than that of the more than 100 foreign soldiers. Those protesters, when they saw a few beautiful women, there was a commotion, and some people shouted in the procession, "Kill the dog officer, save the beauty." ”

"Yes, with our donations, but with so many little beauties, is there any reason for this? These are all ours, or kill the dog officer and divide these little beauties. ”

However, there are also people who shout, "No one is allowed to be disrespectful to my goddess, Fairy Hibiscus, I love you!" It's just that such slogans are obviously not mainstream in the crowd and can't cause much repercussions. Zheng Guobao didn't expect that the impact of these beauties was so great that even the muskets couldn't scare them. It seems that there is a factual basis for the trouble.

"You don't feel at ease doing business in the storefront, you don't feel at ease looking for a living, and you don't feel at ease to support your family. What is the reason for making trouble outside my mission? Zheng Guobao looked around, and there were a few familiar faces in it. For example, the owners of a few shops, the stewards of a few salt shops, and some are local literati, and the composition of the team is very complex. There are those who wear Confucian shirts, and those who wear short brown, which are very strange.

"Less nonsense. You dog official, send people every day to collect taxes and collect donations, we can't live this day. You have replaced the Yanzheng Yamen with your people, and you have exploited us very much, knocking out the bones and sucking the marrow, what kind of business are we doing? Either today, let Qingtian out and get out of Yangzhou, or we will fight with you. Let's all die together. ”

"yes. The dog official got out of Yangzhou and put him back in the sky. "This voice is higher and higher, and the momentum is not small. Some people will rush towards the line, and others will look down to find stones and tiles. However, under the gaze of Ryanstein's hundred and ten foreign soldiers and the aiming of the arquebus, everyone shouted a lot and moved less. When the stones and tiles were picked up, few people dared to throw them.

Zhong Jinyi also took a quick gun and pointed it at the people. Zheng Guobao said: "You guys, you guys have their own business and don't stand, if you have to come to me to coax, it seems that there is still not enough tax, and you still have the strength to make trouble with me." Jia Duanfu is both Huai and sits in the Yandao Yamen, what does it have to do with you who are trading shops? Does he have anything to do with whether he collects your taxes or not? Besides, although the people of the Yandao Yamen were arrested, but the salt you should have branched, is there no one who is responsible? ”

He was right. After the people who were transferred to the Yamen in both Huai were arrested, they were all replaced by the people brought by Zheng Guobao. Since it is difficult for officials to go up and down, his people are replaced, and it is inconvenient to change them again. It is the same official of the four pins, and he is also the person who arranged the recommendation of Shen Shixing, holding the letter of the housekeeper of the Shen Pavilion family and the recommendation of his aunt's wife, and he has already occupied the yamen, who dares to let them move the nest?

As for saying that someone is responsible for the salt, it is true, but when the salt is paid, that's two words. Zheng Guobao greeted the people of the two gangs of Yancao again, the private salt trade was very rampant during this time, and the two gangs of Yancao got benefits, so the orders of the Qincha were implemented very well. These salt merchants went through the normal procedures from the Yandao Yamen, but they didn't know that they had to wait until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Moon, and they couldn't go through the way of the Salt Gang.

Those big salt merchants have a solid foundation, but it doesn't matter, these people who come out of the platform are all small characters who eat leftovers, and they are just sharing a little water in the downstream, and the capital is limited, so they can't stand such a toss. These days, it is fundraising, as well as taxes, salaries, etc., which also make them unbearable. At this time, taking advantage of the opportunity, all of them broke out, and those other merchants, although they did not sell salt, were associated with the salt business, so they also echoed it.

Originally, these people were a platform for collecting money, and they were mainly coaxing. But the more he talked, the more angry he became, and many people aroused their hearts, and this time it was really angry. Others looked at the beautiful flowers around Qin Cha, and the eight little beauties protecting them, and began to pantothenic acid from their hearts. Driven by the positive feelings of envy, jealousy and hatred, the fire in his heart became more and more intense, and he couldn't wait to rush up and beat this dog official to death.

Reinstein, an old mercenary, sees this reflection very clearly. His 100 people are well-trained, but he is not afraid of the difficulties of these thousands of people, but if he hurts his uncle, something big will happen. instructed a foreign soldier beside him to remind his uncle to hide. Then I went to transfer the Zhejiang soldiers guarding the treasury to suppress it.

But at this moment, I only heard the sound of rapid running in the distance, and someone shouted the trumpet, and I heard the neat pace, which was clearly an army. After another moment, I heard someone shouting, "Bah! Who dares to stir up trouble here and besiege the Qincha, will he not die? ”

The people and Zheng Guobao all looked over, only to see a team of officers and soldiers with bright armor, holding spears in their hands, and the soldiers in the back team holding bird guns, for the team officers to come to Zheng Guobao quickly, kowtow and salute: "The last general, Wu Tiande, has seen Qincha." ”

Zheng Guobao didn't expect to meet an acquaintance here. This Wu Tiande hung up the Baoding guerrilla before, and somehow, he actually went to Jiangnan to lead the troops, and also went to Yangzhou. His army looks at the armor and weapons, it is a first-class elite, and if you look carefully, it is the current equipment of the new army of the Ming Dynasty, except for the spear is the musket.

"General Wu, please get up quickly." Waiting to pick up Wu Tiande, Wu Tiande turned around and shouted: "If you don't disperse yet, everyone has a livelihood, do you really want to rebel?" Okay, Lao Tzu brought 3,000 Zhejiang soldiers to guard Qincha, and he was worried that he didn't make any money. ”
