Chapter 48: Stunned

To say that Jia Lian, who was supposed to return to Jinling, appeared in Yangzhou. Let's start with two days ago.

Originally, Jia Lian got the news that a group of masters came headed by the right envoy of the Ming Sect. Then the preparations in Yangzhou are enough to ensure that Lin Ruhai is safe.

But just before Jia Lian was about to leave to return to Jinling, Jinling Shen Yi sent new news.

This time, in order to fulfill the employer's request as soon as possible, the leader of the Ming Sect personally brought a large number of masters and planned to assassinate them.

Jia Lian actually felt a little ridiculous. According to the original record, Jia Min's death is unknown. But Lin Ruhai should never have died of assassination. Besides, such a blatant assassination of Lin Ruhai, an important member of the imperial court who is in the heart of the emperor, Mingjiao is crazy.

Could it be the butterfly effect brought about by their own crossing? That butterfly from the Amazon is really hard.

Jia Lian sometimes feels aggrieved for Emperor Longzheng, and it can be seen that he is a real emperor who has the people in his heart. I also want to make a difference.

But from the Emperor Taishang of Jiuhua Palace, the Queen Mother of Cining Palace to the old ministers of Yong'an of the Manchu Dynasty, they only know how to maintain and maintain a false prosperity.

And the diligent emperor and the only part of the courtiers who were close to the emperor and bent on reform, I am afraid that they were secretly resisted.

If it is a normal son of heaven, let alone a confidant, or an ordinary courtier, he is openly assassinated by people in the rivers and lakes, and Mingjiao is immediately surrounded and suppressed by a large army.

But Emperor Longzheng couldn't do it, because he couldn't disturb the tranquility of Jiuhua Palace.

In this way, even if it is a great shame, Emperor Longzheng can only endure it, and even if he mobilizes Jinyi Mansion to protect Lin Ruhai, Emperor Longzheng can only use Jia Lian to complete it.

No matter what, Jia Lian will never allow Lin Ruhai's family to have an accident. Therefore, without the support of the emperor, he could only do his best to solve the enemy.

Fortunately, Jia Lian has a good ancestor.

At that time, Jia Daishan was in charge of the military aircraft for more than ten years, and the old department was all over the world. If the Jia family itself is not angry, then the old troops of Rongguo must prepare for themselves.

But as long as the Jia family can have people who stand out in the army, these old departments will automatically and consciously gather under the command of the Jia family.

In the original work, Jia Yu and Jia Zheng, under the influence of Mrs. Wang and Wang Xifeng, generously gave this resource to Wang Ziteng. Let Wang Ziteng change from a nobleman who has been removed from the knighthood similar to Lin Ruhai to the secretary of the Ministry of War and the minister of military aircraft.

But virtue is not worthy, it is a curse rather than a blessing. In the end, Wang Ziteng failed to completely disgrace the Wang family, but died on the battlefield.

Jia Lian believes that he will never be like this.

But in the face of so many masters of the Ming Sect, Jia Lian knew that his current preparation was a little insufficient, and he could no longer rely solely on defense. The snake must be lured out of the hole.

So there was the scene of Jia Lian returning to Jinling.

Jia Lian deliberately left Yangzhou with a brigade of Jinyi Mansion guards, just to let Mingjiao and Li Yuze relax their vigilance. Quickly jump out and attack Lin Mansion.

And he himself sneaked back to Yangzhou after getting rid of the surveillance of the Ming Sect. At the same time, in order to solve the problem once and for all, Jia Lian also transferred Xu Li from Ningbo to Yangzhou. And quickly set up a stop, just waiting for Mingjiao to take the bait.

The words were divided into two ends, Li Yuze originally led a group of masters of the Ming Sect to prepare near the Lin Mansion, but Li Yuze, who was cautious by nature, still decided to let Fan Youenvoy lead some people to attack first, and the main force acted later.

Because of the new salt policy implemented by Lin Ruhai, the relationship between the Yamen of the Yanyuan and the Yamen of the Yangzhou Prefect is not admired, and the Yangzhou garrison will not move lightly if there is no military order.

So Li Yuze felt that he had time. What's more, with the guards around Lin Ruhai, they may not be able to withstand the first wave of attacks from the Ming Sect.

However, soon Li Yuze was dumbfounded, and there were obviously more masters in the Lin Mansion than he expected. Li Yuze, who was hiding on the roof of a room opposite the Lin Mansion, soon discovered that the attacks of Fan You's envoy and his sect brothers were at an impasse.

"Sect Master, what should I do?" The brothers next to him all looked at Li Yuze.

Li Yuze was also a little entangled, let's attack, he always felt that now was not the time, continue to wait, it is impossible for the Yangzhou prefect and the Yangzhou garrison to sit back and watch the Yanyuan Yamen be surrounded for a long time.

Otherwise, Emperor Longzheng would have an absolute reason to *** the old ministers of Yong'an in the south and the eight salt merchants in Yangzhou. When the time comes, Jiuhua Palace will not be able to stop it.

"Yuan Fang, what do you think?" Li Yuze looked at a middle-aged scribe beside him.

The middle-aged man is called Yuan Fang, of course, his surname is not Li but Yuan. He was a native of Jingzhou, Hubei, and because he repeatedly failed to take the exam, he was resentful of the imperial court, and by chance he joined Mingjiao and became Li Yuze's adviser.

Yuan Fang glanced at the situation in the Lin Mansion, and it seemed that he was already close to Lin Ruhai's study. But he was firmly stopped by Jinyi Mansion.

"Master, don't miss the opportunity, you won't come again. If we can't kill Lin Ruhai tonight, and wait for Jia Thief to return from Jinling, not only will we be passive, but I'm afraid this time the matter will not be completed. ”

Li Yuze thought about it and nodded.

Yuan Fang then commanded behind him: "Sound the arrow." ”

"A cloud-piercing arrow, thousands of troops come to meet each other." Jia Lian stood in front of the window, looking at the sound of the arrow not far away and the large number of people who suddenly appeared, the corners of his mouth turned slightly.

"Xu Li, pass the order, the marines will enter and launch a general attack. Annihilate this group of rebels. ”

Xu Li immediately bowed down and agreed, and then after seeing that all the Mingjiao bandits had entered the ambush circle, he also sent a ringing arrow.

That's right, this is the arrangement that Jia Lian got, he secretly transferred all the people from Ningbo and Hangzhou to Yangzhou, and at the same time transferred a thousand firecrackers from the East China Sea Fleet Marine Corps to drain the water around Yangzhou Andingfang, where the Lin Mansion is located.

As soon as the arrow was fired, hundreds of firebolts immediately emerged from the vicinity of the Lin Mansion, pointing the mouth of the black hole at the Ming Sect people who were about to enter the Lin Mansion.

Jia Lian had long understood that although there were masters in this world, there were not many who could dodge hundreds of firearms in a not wide alley.

So as soon as the firepower was fired, Mingjiao immediately suffered heavy casualties.

"I've been tricked." Li Yuze, who had just rushed to the gate of the Lin Mansion, was immediately startled when he saw the light of the firecracker, and casually picked up the jade-faced Xiao Wang Xiao Yunuo who rushed to his side, and jumped behind a wall.

Listening to the screams on the street, Li Yuze gritted his teeth with hatred. He never imagined that he would be ambushed by the musketeers when he was about to succeed.

For a time, Jia Lian's crossfire arranged according to his own experience had a huge effect.

The masters of the Ming Sect were instantly stunned.
