But since Sun Zhongxin has set up this kind of plan, how can he miss this good opportunity! After the three family members finished raising the lime, they turned to the side, and a few soldiers behind them rushed in! Not only did the soldiers cover their mouths and noses with damp cloths, but they also smeared vegetable oil on the rest of their faces. As long as you squint your eyes and rush in, the lime won't get into your eyes!

These soldiers directly used rattan cards to knock open the brocade guards in front of the gate and continued to rush forward, slashing directly at the arms of the two water bandits who were carrying spears! The water bandit screamed in pain, the spear fell to the ground, and then he was thrown to the ground!

The soldiers who followed them all had their own goals, and in the blink of an eye, all eight of them were captured! Then they searched the house and drove out a large number of women and children from the back room! At this point, the last trace of resistance in the whole village was extinguished!

Sun Zhongxin stepped forward to take a look, pointed directly at the two people and said, "Take them down and wash them with vegetable oil. Shut them up again, and don't let them say anything!"

The two people Sun Zhongxin refers to are the two brocade guards. You must know that the family is a person who shares weal and woe with the head of the family, so naturally they all have to be provided with good food and drink, and the food and clothing are all first-class! Especially Liu Shou has money in his family. The food for their own family members is all high-quality products, so although the two of them wear casual clothes, they are as conspicuous as standing out from the crowd compared to the people in the fishing village, and they were recognized by Sun Zhongxin in a blink of an eye!

Although these two people were not directly hit by the lime, they were also raised! So I also closed my eyes and closed my breath, and I didn't say anything. Now hearing Sun Zhongxin say this, both of them feel that it seems that their identities have been exposed!

Thinking of this, the two of them didn't need to discuss it, so they both opened their mouths to report their origins, so that they could get out by using their identities. But Sun Zhongxin's family members are also smart people. How is it possible to give them a chance to open their mouths! So as soon as they opened their mouths, each of them received a punch and a kick in the stomach, and beat back everything they wanted to say! Then they were stuffed with something in their mouths and dragged away by someone who tied them up in a sturdy way.

By this time, the resistance in the village had completely stopped, and many villagers, women and children were escorted to gather outside the village. Seeing this, Sun Zhongxin immediately ordered a few officers and said, "A few of you will lead people to search downstream along the riverside, and you will definitely be able to catch a lot of fish that have slipped through the net!" In addition, put a signal on the way to the river. Tell Zuo General that we're done here, and let him come back and meet!"

The rest of the matter is much simpler, since the villagers have been captured, the soldiers set up camp in the province, and directly choose their own houses to prepare for camping. By the way, take out the rice grain stored in the villagers' homes and cook it! There were also a large number of soldiers rummaging through the houses they occupied, and those who had got the money shouted triumphantly, and the whole camping process became a treasure hunt!

When the moon was in the treetops, Zuo Liqiu and Zhang Tiefu arrived with a large number of prisoners and began to enjoy the dinner prepared by Sun Zhongxin. The whole battle is completely over!

But for them, things seem to have surprises! Soon after dawn, several of Zuo Liqiu's family members rushed back with a middle-aged scholar and two entourages. When they confirmed that this person's identity was the salt merchant's staff, they were even more overjoyed, and now the credit was complete!

After Zuo Liqiu and the three of them discussed, he selected a family member under each of the three of them, and the three of them jointly led a team of soldiers to escort the five important prisoners and several bandit leaders into Beijing. As long as they see Liu Haojia, they will naturally understand that this credit is shared by three people! This is the hint that officialdom often says!

So before noon, a clipper set sail. Go straight downstream! The ship will not go through the canal but directly to the sea, they will go to the naval camp near the mouth of the sea, and the navy will escort them straight to Tianjin! This is the fastest and more stealthy.

At the same time, a fleet of salt-carrying ships departed. The fleet targeted only three cities, namely Wuxi, Yangzhou and Nanjing. Among them, Wuxi and Yangzhou each received 10 ships of salt, and the remaining 40 ships of salt were all sold in Nanjing. Look at the book

From this point of view, Liu Haojia and those salt merchants basically thought of going together! That is, to use a large amount of salt to completely reduce the price of salt in cities along the Yangtze River! As a result, it spread, and naturally dragged down the price of salt in Jiangnan!

Let's not talk about the team that transported salt to Wuxi, but the team that transported salt to Yangzhou. Since the ships carrying salt are all river boats, the hull is relatively large, and it is impossible to enter the canal at all. So they directly talked about the salt being unloaded and ready to be transported by land. This means that they will soon face the salt barons on the land route!

In fact, the salt barons are ready to ambush them! Since the salt merchants prejudged that they might have to sell salt in the big cities along the river, they put a team of salt barons in Jiangnan and Jiangbei, and the cities they focused on were Wuxi and Yangzhou!

As for Nanjing, they knew that Liu Haojia would definitely send someone, but they couldn't do anything! Because Nanjing is really not their territory, but Xu Guogong's territory! They really don't dare to make trouble under his nose!

Xu Guogong is the founding noble, and he has been entrenched in Nanjing for almost two hundred years! There is no one in the entire Jiangnan garrison who is not connected with the Duke of Xu, and it can be said that the power is huge! So the salt merchants did not dare to move at all!

And there is another point, Nanjing is the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and you have to have the courage to rebel to make trouble here! Otherwise, anyone who makes something happen here will have to bear the blow of the entire state apparatus, because this is a provocation to all civil and military officials!

Therefore, they can't control the affairs of Nanjing, but they must not let salt enter the country in other places! So they have long gathered all kinds of salt lords and thugs waiting for them!

The big ship bound for Yangzhou couldn't enter the canal, so it stopped at the confluence of the canal and the Yangtze River. There is a small guard post that guards the mouth of the canal, and a small town is formed here on the basis of the guard post. Since many ships have to be replaced with boats here, this place is extremely prosperous, and at the same time, it is also a mixture of fish and dragons, and all kinds of people exist, including the spies of salt merchants!

But to the distress of the spies, after the ship stopped, a large amount of salt was transported directly to the guard and stored! They didn't dare to do this, and storming the guard was no different from rebellion, so they could only watch and watch them sail away after unloading the salt!
