On the sea outside the port, merchant ships entered and exited in an orderly manner, a busy scene, and on the sea in the distance, blurred ship shadows appeared.

The port is prosperous, but the coming and going of ships is normal, and sometimes some caravans, in groups, can reach almost a dozen.

On the harbor lookout, several scribes who were in charge of observing the passing ships and counting the entry and exit of ships suddenly noticed a group of ships in the clairvoyant mirror.

When they saw such a group of ships, several scribes couldn't help but look puzzled.

Not only are there a large number of these ships, but the most important thing is that the construction style of these ships is fundamentally different from that of the Ming Dynasty.

If it were in the past, when they saw these ships, maybe these scribes would feel confused and not know what was going on with these ships, but in the past two years, they have seen too many ships, and even some merchant ships from overseas have seen no less than dozens.

Therefore, when these scribes saw the ships of different styles in the clairvoyant, they immediately realized that these ships were definitely from overseas fleets.

"One, two,...... Ten ......"

"Oh my God, why are there so many ships, can it be said that this is a large exotic caravan?"

Several scribes were shocked to find that the fleet was extremely numerous, and when they counted to fifty, there were still ships behind them.

This is definitely a fleet of no less than a hundred ships.

"It's not good, this is definitely not a caravan, send the alarm quickly!"

In the blink of an eye, the sound of breaking through the air could be heard, and fireworks exploded in the air, and the peace of the port was suddenly broken.

Although it was a blue sky and a white day, when the fireworks exploded in the air, they still alarmed countless people.

A group of people looked up into the air, and many people looked dazed when they saw this, obviously these people did not understand what this fireworks meant.

But in the port, the person in charge of the town is a guerrilla general, Cheng Yan.

Cheng Yan suddenly got up, rushed out of the room in a regular suit, and shouted at several of his guards: "Who suddenly launched a fireworks warning signal, what is going on!" ”

Several guards were also confused at this time, after all, the incident happened suddenly, without any warning, and everyone was at a loss.

When Cheng Yan rushed into the port, the scribes had already sent people down from the lookout and informed the thousands of officials in the port of what they had seen.

At this time, the Qianhu official was reporting the results to Cheng Yan, Cheng Yan climbed out of the sea of corpses and blood, and walked step by step to today's military nobles, although he was only a viscount under an earl, but this also showed that Cheng Yan was by no means incompetent.

To be assigned to garrison such an important place as Tianjin Wei Port, unless the head of the military department is in the water, otherwise, anyone who is a little normal will not ignore Tianjin Wei, an important place at the gateway to Gyeonggi.

Yang Yiqing is obviously a person who knows the soldiers, and being able to select Cheng Yan to garrison Tianjin shows that Cheng Yan's ability has been recognized by Yang Yiqing.

Cheng Yan pushed away the thousand-household official and rushed directly to the lookout, with the help of the clairvoyant mirror, Cheng Yan could already clearly see that the continuous ships were rushing towards the port at a rapid pace.

From the discovery to the alarm, and then to Cheng Yan's arrival, almost a stick of incense time passed, and after such a while, the ship that was originally just a vague shadow on the sea was already approaching the port at this time, and at most it would arrive at the port with a cup of tea.

In the clairvoyant mirror, you can clearly see the exposed gun barrels of the ships, these ships are not caravans at all, but authentic warships.

Cheng Yan is not incompetent, the appearance of these warships made Cheng Yan aware of the crisis, and almost the moment he was sure of these warships, Cheng Yan shouted at the personal soldiers under the lookout and the Qianhu official with a solemn expression: "Pass my order, immediately mobilize all the horses into the port, and all the warships in the port set sail to meet the battle at any time!" ”

Regardless of the purpose of these warships, since he is in charge of garrisoning the port, then he must be prepared for everything.

If the other party has no malicious intent, then it is fine, but if the other party really comes with malicious intent, then he is not a passive beater.

Soon Cheng Yan's military order was conveyed, and a group of soldiers entered the port in an orderly manner, some of them entered the defensive positions, and some of them began to evacuate the merchants in the port.

Up to this point, the merchants, confused by the fireworks that suddenly exploded in the air, still didn't know what was going on.

Although many people have some vague speculations in their hearts, no one could have imagined that Cheng Yan was mentally prepared for the worst at this time.

So when these merchants were forcibly ordered to leave the port, many people almost instinctively objected.

Their merchant ships and even their goods are still in the port at this time, so that many merchants are spilling and playing tricks in various ways, but they refuse to leave the port.

"We are the caravan of the Dingjun Hou family, and my Hou Ye was your general's boss at the beginning......

"My prince is the uncle of the Son of Heaven, you have to think about the consequences......

However, if there is no strong background, the investment in the start of maritime trade alone is not something that ordinary people can afford.

In particular, Tianjin Wei, as the gateway to Gyeonggi, must have a strong background relationship if it wants to make its business bigger and stronger around the capital.

At this time, these people pulled out the backers behind them one by one, and it can be said that one is more terrifying than the other.

These soldiers who were ordered to act heard that these were either the Hou Ye or the Wangye, and many of the soldiers were stunned, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

Cheng Yan looked at a thousand-household official in front of him with his head down and reported to him the evacuation of the people in the port, and heard that many people refused to leave with the forces behind him, and couldn't help but look angry and said: "Waste, it's really waste, military orders are like mountains, don't say that they are just a group of slaves, even if it is really Dingjun Marquis and King Qin are here, in front of military law, it doesn't matter what their identity is." ”

Saying that, a cold light flashed in Cheng Yan's eyes, and he said coldly: "The order goes down, everyone must leave the port, if there is anyone who resists, there will be no forgiveness." ”

Cheng Yan's order, which was full of anger, was given, and several officials of thousands and hundreds of households were awe-inspiring.

Facing a team of soldiers, a white-faced steward led a dozen servants behind him, and said extremely arrogantly: "Let your general come to see me, our family wants to ask, is he so bold that even the royal caravan dares to be rude......

This steward was obviously from the palace, otherwise he would never dare to say such a thing.

The steward Gu Ming only felt that he was really lucky, and he had a relationship with Gu Dayong, the current chief of ceremonies, and he rose to prominence in the palace, and was even sent by Gu Dayong to be responsible for part of the affairs of the royal caravan.

Gu Ming had just returned from overseas not long ago, but this time he had earned a lot of gold and silver, and he was thinking about returning to Beijing with those belongings to invite Gu Da.

Now it's a good thing that this group of Qiu Ba actually asked them to give up everything and leave the port immediately.

It's no wonder that Gu Ming didn't get mad, let him leave those belongings, this is absolutely impossible.

Gu Ming screamed, "Let your general come to see me!" ”

Not long after, Cheng Yan strode over in a military uniform.

Cheng Yan, who had changed into a military uniform, strode over, and when he got closer, Gu Ming was stunned by Cheng Yan's majestic appearance when he saw Cheng Yan, and subconsciously took a few steps back.

When Gu Ming reacted, Gu Ming's face showed a little embarrassment, and when he pointed at Cheng Yan and shouted: "Cheng Yan, you can recognize our family, our family tells you, immediately send your men and horses to transport the things on the ship to the capital for our family......"

Cheng Yan just looked at Gu Ming coldly, it was this kind of indifferent look that made Gu Ming's heart furious, and under the annoyance and anger, Gu Ming almost jumped up, pointed at Cheng Yan and scolded him: "Didn't you hear what our family said, or did you Cheng Yan boldly cover the sky, aren't you afraid that President Gu will punish you?" ”

Many people looked at Gu Ming with a strange look when they heard this.

Not long ago, the news that Gu Da committed suicide in prison spread like wings.

Gu Dayong died in the edict prison, and I don't know how many people who had been persecuted by Gu Dayong cheered for it. However, there are still many people who are not aware of this.

After all, the news of Gu Dayong's death has not been spread for long, and the most important thing is that many people in Tianjin Weigang have returned from overseas, so they have no chance or time to learn about Gu Dayong's death.

Obviously, Gu Ming is one of them.

Because Gu Ming didn't know that his biggest reliance on Gu Dayong had committed suicide in the edict, so in Gu Ming's opinion, as long as there was such a backer as Gu Dayong, what was the point of such a guerrilla general in front of him. At that time, as long as he blows a little wind in front of Gu Dayong, he can make Cheng Yan lose his position.

Cheng Yan glanced at the crowd around him, and snorted coldly: "All the soldiers listen to the order, immediately evacuate everyone in the port, if there is any resistance, there will be no mercy!" ”

Gu Ming's eyes widened, he looked at Cheng Yan in disbelief, and couldn't help but point at Cheng Yan and screamed, "You...... You're so bold, stop ...... for us."

Seeing a team of soldiers surrounding them, Gu Ming couldn't help but shout: "Beat our family, kill our own chief manager and be responsible for us!" We want to see if you are Cheng Yan or Gu Da! ”

Saying that, Gu Ming pointed to his neck, and laughed at Cheng Yan arrogantly: "If you have the ability, you can cut it here, haha, do you have the guts, coward......"
