Chapter 220 With a waist of 100,000 pieces, riding a crane down to Yangzhou

"Do you know who his elder brother is?"

Yan Shenggong, who walked into Guazhou City with a fearful look, maintained a warm smile while nodding to the gentry on both sides, and whispering to Yang Xin.

"Guo Qing."

Yang Xin said calmly.

"You know that his elder brother is the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, and you still kill him?"

Yan Shenggong said speechlessly.

Guo Yu was not only the Minister of Rites in Nanjing, but also one of the imperial tutors. Like Sun Chengzong, Xu Guangqi and others, they were old ministers of the Prince's East Palace. However, he was also a Donglin Party and Taichang valued him, but Tianqi had no liking to him, otherwise he would not have been thrown into Nanjing as the Minister of Rites.

Except for the Minister of War who is the Secretary of the Ministry of War who is the counselor of the Ministry of War, the six ministries in Nanjing all provide support to the elderly.

"Does he deserve to die?"

Yang Xin said.

"That's right, as long as he goes out and guides the ships, arranges places along the coast, guides those small ones to other rivers, and avoids the Guazhou Gate, then there will be no such blockage here. Yangzhou is not the only entrance to Guazhou Gate. Yizhen Yan River, the Mangdao River and Baita River in the lower reaches, this season, can allow light-loaded ships to bypass Guazhou and go directly to Yangzhou.

Even if it is these big ships, you can still get off the boat in Guazhou, then go to Yangzhou by land, or change small boats in the city to continue moving forward, or even grain grain. Guazhou originally had warehouses for transporting grain.

It is said that he is not allowed to enter the city.

The excuse is that these foreign merchants and travelers gathered together, for fear that Japanese pirates would take the opportunity to cause trouble.

It should have been intentional.”

Yan Shenggong said.

"Will it be over?"

Yang Xin said.

If Guo Feng hadn't deliberately blocked this way, there would have been a ghost!

"Admiral, an official came outside and brought a large number of soldiers, saying that it was Admiral Cao Jiang, and we must not enter the city, and we will stay on the dock to prevent disturbing the people."

Huang San followed him and said.

"Isn't Admiral Cao Jiang the Duke of Wei?"

Yang Xin said in confusion.

"The Censor of Cao Jiang, who is also commonly called Admiral Cao Jiang, should be Chen Daoheng.

It is obvious that they have prepared for a long time. They are not going to let you act as recklessly as they are in Wuxi. Wuxi is careless and did not transfer a team of officers and soldiers to station in advance to watch you. But this time, they learned to be smart and directly asked Chen Daoheng to take troops to see you. It is very interesting now. Don’t you like to let the bandits conquer the house and catch people? Don’t you like to let these minions poke people with spears? I see how you continue to do whatever you want with a tight hoop on your head.

He is the deputy chief envoy of the Nanjing Censorate.

I really want to see if you have the courage to attack a deputy commander.”

Yan Shenggong said gloatingly.

It is obvious that for Yang Xin every chance of unlucky, Yan Shenggong would feel the joy from the bottom of his heart, but every result was disappointing him.

"Go back and tell your brothers that I have given you orders to enter the city immediately. If you cannot fulfill my orders, you will know the consequences yourself."

Yang Xin looked at Huang San and said.

"Uh, little understand!"

Huang San immediately turned around and trotted towards the dock.

Yang Xin stood in the same place and looked at the dock.

This time he only brought three hundred bandit troops, and the others were still in Wuxi. The militia construction there was still in progress. The militia transformation of 30,000 tenants could not be completed in one month. In fact, more tenants still continued to apply. However, after knowing that they were unable to resist, the gentry had chosen to accept it, and then hurriedly declared the land they had hidden to the Military Control Commission. After all, it was more powerful than paying taxes in the future. So far, Yang Xin has forced nearly 100,000 acres of hidden land to Tianqi.

Moreover, the prisoners and the gold and silver were also there, so Yang Huan brought 1,200 scoundrel troops to stay, Yang Xin brought 300 scoundrel troops, 200 scoundrel troops and two armed merchant ships to Yangzhou to deal with the matter.

But now there is a group of people.

Yang Xin looked at a civil servant in red robe from afar.

This is the deputy envoy of the Nanjing Censorate, the admiral Cao Jiang Chen Daoheng, and the Duke of Wei, who jointly manages the navy at Xinjiangkou, a base with one civil and one military officer.

Of course, he actually has the final say.

Since the Ming Dynasty developed to the present, both Nanjing and Beijing, the troops under the Five Army Governor’s Office have actually been controlled by civil servants.

The latter was talking to those officials and gentry, probably asking Guo Tongzhi where he went. He just didn't know if these officials and gentry had the courage to tell him what had happened just now, but he should not have the courage. Old man Yu is the leader of local gentry, and the Yu family in Guazhou is the number one big family. It seems that he is a smart person, but it doesn't matter if the local officials are. Even if they say it, they dare not say it in person. At most, they complain in the future. In short, it seems that Chen Daoheng doesn't know who the blood he stepped on belongs to.

The large number of government troops he led were landing and blocking the bandits who were originally going to follow the city.

The three hundred bandits were waiting there with four three-pound guns. After a month of assault training, their gunners were already shooting very accurately and could be called qualified artillery. And after this period of time, many battalions had already communicated with each other, so Yang Xin was preparing to further merge these battalions and eventually reduce them to five battalions. At the same time, he sent people back to the mountain to recruit some, and finally reached 500 people per battalion, and each battalion was equipped with a gun team of four three-pound guns such as this.

To put it bluntly, it is the transformation of Hunan Army.

The Hunan Army is the most suitable for the southern battlefield.

Huang San soon returned to the team.

Chen Daoheng watched Lao Huang run past him, then looked up at this side.

Yang Xin raised his hand with a smile to greet Deputy Du Yu.

Deputy Chief Inspector!

This is a real senior official at the level of the Governor.

The latter pretended to be too far away and didn't see it, then turned his gaze to the Grand View Building, and even chatted with old man Yu just now with great interest.

It is obvious that he still underestimated Yang Xin's crazyness.

Then Yang Xin slowly pressed down his hand.

On the armed merchant ship behind Chen Daoheng, Salazar waved the small flag in his hand. The sailors who had been waiting beside him quickly poked the fuse into the ignition hole. Suddenly, the twelve cannons sprayed flames, and the thunderous sound of cannons echoed in Guazhou again. Chen Daoheng was frightened and jumped up on the spot. Then he turned around in surprise, and then the cannons on another armed merchant ship also spewed out flames. The cannons flew over his head like this. Amid the terrifying screams of the gentry and officials around him, he looked back at Yang Xin again with an incredible expression.

Yang Xin smiled and raised his hand to him again.

And at the same time, soil splashed at the water gate of Guazhou City.

The sound of the cannon was an order. All the bandits raised their spears in an instant. A spear was pushed forward in the dense forest. The sword player hid in the middle of the dense forest. The crossbowman behind him picked up the crossbow and waited. The sailors on the two armed merchant ships reloaded the shells as quickly as possible.

The official army that had originally blocked them scattered in fear...

This is the guards in Nanjing.

They have no combat power, and they were the ones who were so scared by pirates that they couldn't leave.

"Put the curse on me?"

Yang Xin patted Yan Shenggong on the shoulder.

"They need to have a tight-knot curse first!"

Then he said.

Indeed, if you want to put a tight curse on him, you must first have talent.

There are no troops in Jiangnan that can fight? The only one who can really fight is the Zhejiang Army. The Zhejiang Army has been transferred to the battlefield in Liaodong. The navy can still fight the coastal areas. On the Yangtze River are the centipede ships that sent Yang Xin to Changzhou Prefecture last time. They were scared by several pirate ships. It was a fantasy to expect the army in Jiangnan to put a tight curse on Yang Qianshi at this time. Moreover, the army in Nanjing was not interested in doing this. At most, they just obeyed orders to deal with it.

Really work hard?

joke!

Those who join the army are not fools!

Just as Huang San led the bandit army to disperse at least three times their official army, and then pushed four cannons into the city to follow Yang Xin, Chen Daoheng also came to Yang Qianshi in anger.

"Yang Qianshi, what do you want to do? Do you rebel and rebel?"

Old man Chen shouted angrily.

"Defendant Chen, do you want to be guilty of being punished?"

Yang Xin said with a pure face.

This is also used in a very shameless way.

"Why did you fire?"

Chen Daoheng said angrily.

He was from Jiangxi and was a Jinshi in the 14th year of Wanli. He was actually very old. He was soon renamed the Governor of the River in history, and he guarded Jining when Xu Hongru rebelled. Later, he was renamed the Minister of War in Nanjing. However, because he could not bear to be a 9,000-year-old, he was still very honest and a famous honest official.

"Ah, yes, why are you firing?"

Yang Xinyi asked Huang San with righteous words.

"Return to the admiral, I heard from the master that something was going to happen. I was afraid that these cannons would not work well, so I just tried the cannons first."

Huang San said.

"Ah, test the cannon, Deputy Chen, they just test the cannon."

Yang Xin said.

Chen Daoheng took a deep breath in anger.

At this time, his soldiers followed, and the officer leading the team looked embarrassed.

"Walk!"

Old man Chen left angrily.

"Let's go to Yangzhou, with a hundred thousand guan, and ride a crane to Yangzhou! We don't have ten thousand guan, but fortunately we can carry cannons."

Yang Xin said.

Chen Daoheng took the boat in Guazhou City, while Yang Xin took the bandit army on foot. The two teams walked out of Guazhou in parallel. Then they found that the entire canal was completely blocked, and the blocked canal ships were probably stretched from Guazhou to Yangzhou. However, Chen Daoheng took a small boat with shallow water and could still pass through the edge of the channel. As for Yang Xin's walking, it was very simple. There was a road from Guazhou to Yangzhou, and there were bridges along the way...

There are also on the Yangzhou Canal.

Yangzhou is still a Chaoguan, and there are naturally bridges in Chaoguan. How can we set up a toll station without a bridge?
