Chapter 198: Bombarding Quanzhou, Scared to Pee Your Pants (Part 2)

Until now, Liu Pengju did not believe that Li Yanzhi would rebel, because there was no motive at all.

And he didn't know such a big thing, but the gentry in the whole city knew about it, so Liu Pengju also vaguely guessed something, it seems that the two forces have reached the point of life and death!

But why do you want to use Quanzhou as a battlefield?

However, it is still necessary to prepare, if Li Yanzhi really rebels and invades Quanzhou, his own prefect will also be done.

The most important thing is that Liu Pengju could not refuse these gentry. Although he is the prefect of Quanzhou, it is not him who is really in charge of Quanzhou City, but these gentry in the hall. Inside and outside the palace, except for the family members brought by Liu Pengju when he took office, everyone else may have been bought by the gentry. Even Liu Pengju's family did not receive any benefits from the gentry......

Therefore, when Li Yanzhi came to the outside of Quanzhou City with the fleet early in the morning of the second day, what he saw was Quanzhou City, which was like a great enemy.

Quanzhou City is on the seaside, ships can go straight to the wharf outside the city through Jinjiang, Jinjiang estuary is extremely wide, even the sea ship can also sail in. Li Yanzhi led the fleet straight into Jinjiang and approached the wharf.

Since the last time Jin'an Town was robbed, the gentry managed to transfer a sailor division of thousands of people to garrison Jin'an Town, but looking at such a huge fleet, looking at the three tall plywood boats like city towers, the sailors stationed in Jin'an Town did not dare to move at all.

Zheng Zhilong was ordered to lead the fleet to guard the river, and Li Yanzhi calmly landed ashore with more than 1,000 soldiers, drove to the gate of Quanzhou, and ordered people to call the city.

On the city tower, looking at the sailing ships in the river and the Praetorian Guard soldiers lined up outside the city, Liu Peng's mouth was astringent.

"Quanzhou Huang Wei and Xiamen Xu Xinsu colluded with the red-haired ghost to slaughter the people of our Ming Dynasty, drove the pirate Li Kuiqi to attack Fuzhou, and committed a heinous crime, the Fujian general army was ordered to enter the city to confiscate Huang Wei's henchmen, and then open the city gate immediately, otherwise it is Huang Wei's accomplice!" He shouted at the tower.

"Liu Pengju, the prefect of Quanzhou, please ask General Li to speak." Liu Pengju ignored the gentry's obstruction, and shouted to the city with the battlement.

Guarded by several shields, Li Yanzhi walked to the front of the team and looked up at Liu Pengju in the city: "Under Li Yanzhi, why didn't Governor Liu open the city gate, is it also Huang Wei's party?" ”

Liu Pengju wiped the beads of sweat on his face, and tried his best to keep his composure: "Mr. Li, this government received news that there were pirates coming to attack Quanzhou, so everyone was prepared, but I didn't expect it to be Mr. Li." Dare to ask Mr. Li, do you say that Huang Wei has evidence of rebellion? ”

Li Yanzhi said lightly: "Of course there is, there are all human and material evidence, otherwise why would I come to Quanzhou?" ”

"This ......" Liu Pengju wiped his sweat, not knowing what to do.

"Even if Huang Wei is guilty, there should be someone sent by the imperial court to arrest and interrogate, Li Yanzhi, you are just a general soldier in Fujian, a military general, what qualifications do you have to arrest people who have a reputation for making people?"

Seeing that Liu Pengju couldn't count on it, Huang Zheng went into battle shirtless and said sharply to the city: "Li Yanzhi, you teamed up with the pirate Zheng Zhilong to attack Quanzhou with your own troops, do you want to rebel?" ”

Li Yanzhi couldn't help laughing: "It's really a thief who bites into the bone!" Ben Shuai has seen it today, what is a thief shouting to catch a thief! Conspiracy? This handsome Fujian general soldier was appointed by His Majesty to sit in the southeast, which is to quell the rebellion for His Majesty! ”

"Then do you have His Majesty's decree? If not, it is a rebellion! Huang Zheng said sharply.

"I don't have a holy decree, but I have the waist card given by His Majesty to calm the Jinyi Guard, and I can be arrested and interrogated directly in case of rebellion!"

Li Yan said coldly, no longer paying attention to this person, and looked at Liu Pengju: "Liu Fuzun, are you sure you want to be in the company of this gang of rebels and resist the arrest of Jinyiwei?" ”

"This, this ......" Liu Pengju's face was covered with cold sweat, and he didn't know how to answer.

"He doesn't want to arrest people, but to lure open the city gate to capture Quanzhou, everyone listens, if they dare to approach again, they will release arrows and guns to me!" Huang Zheng shouted loudly, and there was a sound of agreement in the city. In the eyes of the soldiers who guarded the city, this uncle of the Quanzhou merchant gang spoke better than the prefect.

Huang Zheng stared at Li Yanzhi deadly, he didn't believe that Li Yanzhi really dared to attack the city! As long as today's crisis can be solved, there will be a way to deal with Li Yanzhi in the future!

Li Yanzhi stopped talking nonsense, slowly raised his hand, and a row of fire guns poured out, aiming at the head of the city.

"If you dare to resist the arrest of Jinyiwei, you are rebellious, and there is no forgiveness for killing!" With Li Yanzhi's shout, the sound of fire guns rang out, and the smoke of gunpowder filled the city.

Hundreds of firebolts were fired at the same time, and the projectiles hit the battlements of the city wall, causing dust to fly, and the projectiles shot into the city, and some of the guards of the city screamed and fell.

Huang Zheng suddenly fell on his back, and a projectile was shooting in front of him, piercing the skull and embedded deep in his brain.

This guy dared to show his head on the city wall, how could Li Yanzhi be polite to him, more than ten firearms aimed at him!

Looking at Huang Zheng lying on the ground without looking at him, Liu Peng sat on the ground with his butt and screamed, and a warm current flowed down his thighs.

The sound stopped, and Li Yanzhi's demonic words reached the city again: "Liu Fuzun, give you a moment to open the city gate immediately, otherwise I will transfer Hongyi cannons to attack the city, and when the city is broken, all those who defend the city will be treated as rebels, and they will be killed!" ”

There was a silence on the city wall, and suddenly someone threw down his weapon and turned around and left, walking towards the ladder of the lower city, the people outside the city were already crazy, and they actually shot the Huang family uncle, and then stayed in the city, and when the city was broken, he would definitely die!

If it was really a pirate who was besieging the city, everyone would insist on defending the city even if they were afraid. But the people outside the city are not pirates, they are officials and soldiers, and they are the brocade guards sent by the emperor, and if they are killed, they will die in vain, and they will be charged with treason. No one does not understand this truth.

If Huang Zheng is alive, with his prestige and the background of the Huang family, others are not afraid, anyway, if something happens, the Huang family will stand on top, and now that Huang Zheng has been killed, who will resist again?

"Open the gates, open the gates!" Liu Pengju screamed, finally coming back to his senses from the fright.

This time, no one stopped him, and those gentry had long been frightened by Huang Zheng's death.

Huang Zheng, famous for his fame, his father is the deputy envoy of the fourth grade, and his cousin is a bachelor of the Hanlin Academy, within three generations, the Huang family's Jinshi is seven or eight, and more than ten people are raised, and he is an absolute gentry and wealthy family in Quanzhou, and now, the uncle of the Huang family was shot and killed like a dog!

The rest of the gentry asked themselves how their family wealth was far inferior to Huang Zheng's, how dare they come out again!

Liu Pengju struggled to sit up from the ground and staggered towards the city, he wanted someone to open the city gate.

The other gentry looked at each other and dispersed one after another, anyway, the matter was provoked by the Huang family, now Huang Zheng is dead, Huang Wei has been arrested, the prefect has defected, everyone has no leader, and they are still a fart! Anyway, everything can be pushed to the Huang family, and he is indeed not deeply involved, so does Li Yanzhi dare to raid all the gentry in Quanzhou City?

"It's really not planted!" Looking at the slowly opening city gate, Ji Da, who was guarding Li Yanzhi's side, couldn't help but say, "With such a high city wall, as long as there are a thousand young people guarding the city, we have no choice, the people here are really fucking bloodless!" ”

Zheng Hongkui, who accompanied him, also felt that his face was hot, because he was also from Quanzhou, but he couldn't refute it.

"Go into the city, follow the roster, and take people!" Li Yanzhi didn't have time to pay attention to Ji Da's chatter, and ordered in a deep voice.
