Only then did Shen Baozhen realize that there was such a shameless person in the world, and he pretended to commit suicide for his loyalty, but this person was indifferent and didn't care at all. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Li Xian, I am still a hero on your side, and you are such a shameless person.

That's it, I don't want to go back alive when I fall into your hands, so you can just toss it. I have a heart of loyalty, and you can do what you want. Shen Baozhen turned his heart sideways, sat down and ignored Li Xian.

After Li Xian heard this, he sneered: "Lord Shen, if you don't talk darkly, don't act with me."

I was originally a good citizen, and I paid all the taxes that should be paid every year, and I never owed the court.

As an official of the imperial court, you don't want to do things for the court and the people, but you want to collude with pirates like Zhu Jiu, and provide muskets and artillery to attack me, a good citizen, do you dare to call yourself a loyal and righteous person?

The dignified court ordered officials to collude with pirates to attack the people under their rule, how can this be a matter of loyalty, as long as you explain this matter clearly, I will not embarrass you, let you go now, how about it?"

When Li Xian said this, Shen Baozhen was speechless, he was also ordered to attack the Mixed Yuan Temple, but colluding with pirates to attack the good people is a fact, and he can't justify himself no matter what.

He can also make up some words, but when he encounters someone like Li Xian, he will be humiliated.

"Things during this period are very complicated, and there is a big misunderstanding, so you don't know about it. Shen Baozhen could only stiffen his mouth at this time, but his attitude had softened unconsciously.

"What a misunderstanding, it's not that the officials want the people to die, and the people have to die. Li Xian sneered, took out a blank piece of paper without writing from his arms, and put it in front of Shen Baozhen.

"Lord Shen, write, write a letter to Lord Lin, the governor of Liangguang.

You just said that I, Li Xian, want to start an incident in the name of Zhu Jiu, use the firearms you looted from the people of Guangzhou as weapons, and will attack Leizhou and Qiongzhou in the near future, and I will also make you the chief military advisor, and ask Lord Lin what he thinks.

If you want to get out, just take advantage of this opportunity. ”

Li Xian threw down the paper and pen, turned around and went out, Shen Baozhen picked up the pen with difficulty in the room, and suddenly felt that the things in his hand were like a thousand pounds, and he didn't know what to write for a while.

Li Xian didn't care how Shen Baozhen wrote the letter, but also went to the staff and officer surnamed Bao, and concocted the same, saying that he was going to start an incident in their name, attack Leizhou and Qiongzhou, and ask them to write a letter to Lord Lin in Guangzhou and ask him how to deal with it.

The three of them each wrote letters to explain the situation clearly, some said that Li Xian was going to rebel and asked the Governor of Liangguang to prepare in advance, some said that the Governor of Liangguang should find a way to save him, and some asked the Governor of Liangguang to notify his family and redeem him with money, in short, there was everything.

Li Xian took the three letters and looked at them, and felt that there was nothing wrong, so he asked someone to bring the three letters to Guangzhou and find various connections to send them to Lin Zexu's mansion.

However, the matter of this letter is just a trivial matter, Li Xian understands that the most important thing is to be strong in his own strength, and from this day on, he will step up the training of the escort team, and be sure to build the escort team into a strong army that can be trusted in the shortest possible time.

The relationship with the local hunters and fishermen should also be maintained, so Li Xian simply contributed some money and hired locals for two yuan a month to receive simple military training.

These people are not official guards, they are just hired to Li Xian for two or three months of training, and then what should they do.

Li Xian said to the outside world that he was worried that other pirates in Leizhou Bay would come to retaliate, so that ordinary fishermen could receive some training so that they could help each other when something happened in the future.

The food of the mixed yuan view is good, the salary is also good, and many local fishermen and hunters are willing to participate in such short-term training, which makes the momentum of the mixed yuan view rise sharply for a while, and gives Li Xian a good reputation as a good person of Li Dashan.

The power structure of the mixed yuanguan, with soap workshops, escorts, whaling squads and militias as the bones, has also gradually surfaced.

When the letter of the three captives was delivered to Governor Lin's mansion, it naturally caused an uproar, but he was suppressed by Governor Lin, and he never made a noise about it, thinking about how to solve the matter quietly.

About twenty days later, Governor Lin sent a few henchmen over to discuss with Li Xian how to resolve the matter.

Li Xian only met with them once, so he became the shopkeeper, entrusted the matter to General Zhao Hu, and continued to train the escort team by himself.

"You want me to talk to the people of the Governor's Mansion about things, I don't know what the result of the negotiation will be?" After receiving this errand, General Zhao was stunned, not understanding why Li Xian would entrust such an important and troublesome matter to himself.

"It's okay to talk about anything, just remember, don't talk about it.

Your task is to procrastinate as much as possible, not to easily agree to anything, and not to easily refuse anything, which is to involve people.

If I train one more soldier on my side, I will have more confidence in the governor of Guangdong, and my waist will be harder when it comes to conditions.

The British are now going to war, and they have sent troops to block the mouth of the Pearl River, and Governor Lin can't send troops to fight us, so he doesn't dare to come hard. Li Xian said.

It turned out that the contradictions between the British and the Qing gradually escalated, and Lin Zexu drove the British from Guangzhou back to Macao, and then issued an order for them to expel all the British.

The British took more than 60 ocean-going merchant ships to the waters between Hong Kong Island and the Kowloon Peninsula, and then there were many trade frictions with Guangzhou, and the Qing Dynasty people named Lin Weixi were killed, and there were many games between the governor's palace and the consul.

A recent major event was that the British consul Yilu ordered two warships, the Voracil and the Cambridge, to lead 18 merchant ships of more than 1,000 tons to block the mouth of the Pearl River and prevent the ships inside from coming out.

Guan Tianpei led more than 20 official ships to engage in a fierce battle with the British fleet, but unfortunately the difference in the number of artillery and the tonnage of the ships was too great, and all the official ships were sunk by the British fleet.

Fortunately, the place where the water battle took place at that time was relatively close to the shore, and the sailors all swam back to the shore after falling into the water, and in the end three or four people died.

In short, Governor Lin has a lot of troubles on his side, and he really doesn't have the ability to take care of Leizhou's side, let alone lead troops to crusade against Chaoyuanguan, otherwise Li Xian would not dare to scare the extremely famous Governor of Liangguang with words such as rebelling against Leizhou and Qiongzhou.

"I see, the battalion commander wants me to have a fight with people. Zhao Hu will understand what his role is, and nodded and said that he knows.

After Li Xian said something to him, Zhao Hujiang was frightened for a while, but then he saw that Li Xian's face was as usual, and he didn't mention that conversation, so he put his mind at ease, but he was more diligent and cautious, for fear that Li Xian would find out what was wrong.
