Chapter 883
But only halfway through the cut, Xu Weixue realized something, retracted his weapon, and returned to the original place, but this did not affect the battle situation.

On one side are half sea merchants, half pirates, fierce men who dare to go to sea to beg for life, and there are twice as many people;
On the other side are government servants and town soldiers, who can only bully ordinary people and foreign businessmen in terms of strength, and their numbers are not as good as half of the other side.

The result of the melee can be imagined, and it cannot be called a melee, it is basically one-sided.

In the midst of the "bloody storm", dozens of people were seriously injured and scattered all over the place, basically most of them were local government servants and rural soldiers.

People with a discerning eye can see that the dominant party must have kept their hands. For example, Xu Weixue, the leader of the army, only used the back of his knife to chop people.

Otherwise, it's not that they can't afford to be seriously injured, but that there are corpses all over the field. If people really die in the scuffle, they can only consider themselves unlucky.

When the battle was over, most of the people scattered and fled towards the sea.He also set fire to the trade clubs and commercial shops near Sanjiangkou, and the smoke billowed for a while.

Xu Weixue watched his subordinates beating people and setting fire, wiped the sweat from his brow, and said to himself: "Finally, it's fun!"

Yan Shifan yelled: "What on earth do you want to do? If you want to fight, just follow the rules. Why use force?

Even if you lose confidence in me, even if you no longer believe in my judgment, you shouldn't give up on yourself like this! "

My own strategizing, my own maneuvering, all ruined!

Chief Xu was very puzzled, "Who gave up on himself? I also have a reason for this!"

Yan Shifan only felt that he was going crazy with anger, and abused him without any choice of words: "With your brain, what else can you think of!"

Xu Weixue replied: "Yesterday I sent someone to send a letter to the ship, and my wife replied, since Qin Zhongtang sent you and me out, it means that Qin Zhongtang subconsciously wants to make big things, the bigger the better! "

Yan Shifan's ability to think has been lost by anger, and he asked: "What kind of causal conclusion is this? What is the inevitable cause and effect of sending us out to make big things?"

Xu Weixue continued to answer: "You also said that you and I are Qin Dewei's cannon fodder, the best kind after death.

Doesn't that just show that Qin Zhongtang has a subconscious mind that he doesn't care about life and death, lest things are not big?
Otherwise, why didn't Qin Zhongtang send his closest friend Mr. Xu to escort the silk? "

Yan Shifan shouted: "It is precisely because of this that we have to be careful to protect ourselves and be careful! Instead of being reckless like you!"

But Xu Weixue said: "It's useless to be careful. If the matter is not small, with Qin Zhongtang's temperament, we might be sold off if we change hands! After all, we can't talk about friendship with Qin Zhongtang!"

Yan Shifan: "."

This sentence is correct, Qin is such a person!

In the end Xu Weixue said viciously: "Only when things get serious to a certain extent, we will be safe, and Qin Zhongtang must protect us! This is called putting them to death and then reborn!"
Since Qin Zhongtang wants to do something big, we should do it as much as possible!Maybe this is the opportunity Qin Zhongtang gave us! "

Yan Shifan felt that he was playing the piano to a cow, and he couldn't explain the reasoning at all, so he directly reprimanded: "You are acting blindly, blindly aimlessly!

Everything is just your self-righteousness. What purpose can you achieve by causing trouble like this? "

But Xu Weixue said: "Before I left, I invited people to drink in the shogunate, and others said that Qin Zhongtang wanted to open a mansion in Ningbo, but he was always worried that there would be too much resistance.

For example, there are more than a dozen rich families in Ningbo, I am afraid that no one wants to see Qin Zhongtang come over!Those tongues in the court will definitely criticize Qin Zhongtang for harassing the place!
We made a big mess in Ningbo this time, so Qin Zhongtang has an excuse to come to Ningbo?How is this a purposeless blind move? "

Yan Shifan was speechless, how could a pirate on horseback be so logical and self-consistent in order to be a dog?
Xu Weixue said impatiently: "Stop talking, run quickly! Don't take the water, you will be intercepted easily!"

Yan Shifan pointed at himself, "Tell me, how can I run?"

Xu Weixue first looked at Uncle Yan's unfit legs and feet, then at Uncle Yan's fat body, and finally at his good eyes.

It was clear at a glance that it was indeed not suitable for escaping from land.

So Leader Xu hesitated for a moment and said: "Then don't run away, just wait here!"

Seeing Xu Weixue's loyalty, Yan Shifan was a little moved. Could it be that righteousness kills more dogs every time?

He murmured again: "Don't worry! I guess the locals were scared and didn't dare to come here first.

Therefore, the people from the government must arrive first, so there should be no serious danger. "

Xu Weixue couldn't bear it anymore and said, "Uncle Yan, can you put away the word "expectation?"

There was such a big commotion outside the city, a total of more than [-] people fought, and it even involved government servants and village soldiers. Another fire broke out, and the government in the city would definitely be alarmed.

Immediately, Shen Kai, the prefect, and Shen Jie, the commander of Ningbo Guards, first ordered the soldiers and horses, and then they came out of the city and went straight to Sanjiangkou.

After arriving at the scene, Shen Zhifu casually took a few glances and was able to roughly determine what was going on.

It must be that the local tycoon bullied the foreign merchants, accidentally encountered the Raptors crossing the river, and was beaten instead.

Seeing Zhang Shixing, the big shopkeeper of the Zhang family, among the wounded, Zhifu Shen immediately felt a headache.

The Zhang family is one of the four major families in Ningbo City today, and Zhang Shixing is also a prominent figure.

Zhang Shixing's uncle is Zhang Bangqi, a leader of the Zhejiang Party, and Zhang Shixing's brother Zhang Shiche also joined politics from the third rank.

Such a character was beaten to the point of bleeding all over his face, half dead.

While Governor Shen was investigating the scene, another large group of people arrived, headed by an old man in his fifties.

Shen Zhifu also knew that this old man was Tu Ren from the Tu family, one of the four major families.

The four major families intermarried with each other, and Zhang Shixing, who was seriously injured, was Tu Ren's nephew.

And Tu Ren himself has a reputation as a great squire, not to mention that Tu Ren is the cousin of Tu Qiao, the censor of Zuodu.

As a result, Magistrate Shen had even more headaches. These twists and turns were intertwined, how could a foreign prefect handle it easily?
Tu Ren stood in front of Shen Zhifu with a dark face, and asked directly: "Can the government be controlled?"

The subtext is that if the government can't manage it, the four major families will manage it themselves.

Shen Zhifu looked at the foreign fleet and sighed helplessly.

Why had he been surveying the scene just now and didn't join the fleet?Because he recognized it, there was a one-eyed fat man standing over there, it should be that one.

But it was impossible to avoid them forever. In the end, Zhifu Shen, Commander Liu, Tu Ren and the others walked to the shore.

Xu Weixue led the guards and guarded Mr. Yan Shifan very vigilantly.

Then Xu Weixue yelled first: "Stop! Uncle Yan from Ge's hometown is here, don't be rude!
Uncle Yan transported silk here, but was obstructed by your local bullies, and even set fire to two ships. What is the reason? "

Yan Shifan: "."

Everything came so unexpectedly, it was obviously Qin Dewei's goods, when did it become Yan Shifan's?

Is this your loyalty, Xu Weixue?Did you stay here just to sell yourself?
Are you afraid that if it is Qin Dewei's goods, Qin Dewei's reason for coming directly to Ningbo to interfere in order to avoid suspicion is not sufficient?
Even Xu Weixue, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes, has begun to imitate badly. He is really unpopular!
Master Tu Rentu rushed ahead of Shen Zhifu, and asked Yan Shifan: "Why did this hurt the harmony?"

Your old man, Yan Ge, even recruited the big bosses of the Zhejiang Party as an ally. What does it mean for you, Yan Shifan, to kill you here?
Yan Shifan doesn't want to talk, what can he say to a group of people who pretend to be blind and deaf?

He, Yan Shifan, has been preaching all the way that this batch of silk is Qin Dewei's goods. Believe it or not, you haven't heard anything about it!
However, they are still pretending here, not daring to admit that this is Qin Dewei's goods, because they think Yan Shifan is easier to bully him!
Seeing that Uncle Yan was silent, Xu Weixue replied instead: "How about the two burned ships and [-] bolts of silk?"

Tu Ren sighed: "It seems that they are all done by Japanese pirates. I didn't expect Japanese pirates to be so rampant outside Ningbo City."

Japanese pirates?Yan Shifan waved his hand, whatever you want to say!

Tu Ren continued: "It seems that Ningbo Mansion can't control this tragedy. My nephew must not be humiliated in vain. This old man intends to rush to the provincial capital to appeal to Qin Zhongtang in person."

Yan Shifan said mockingly: "Qin Zhongtang is not as easy-talking as I am. The old man has gone, be careful not to come back."

What can you appeal?Threatening people by using Qin Zhongtang to collude with Japanese pirates to smuggle?

Tu Ren couldn't help it either, if he didn't go to Hangzhou, Qin Dewei would probably come here in person.

Hangzhou City, the Qin Shogunate.

With the arrival of follow-up personnel from the north in recent days, Qin Zhongtang's shogunate team gradually became complete.

Although Qin Zhongtang's temperament is more pragmatic, but the shogunate has just opened, and everything needs to be ruled, and he needs to make up his mind.

Therefore, he had to be submerged in the files, and was trapped in the shogunate for several days without moving.

There are many other things, such as Qin Zhongtang's reaffirmation of banning the sea, so detailed regulations need to be planned one by one——

Detailed plans were required for the joint defense system of township soldiers in various coastal areas, the re-selection of officers and soldiers in the guards for drills, the division of ship size standards, and the disposal methods for ships exceeding the standard.

Not to mention the preparations for fighting back against Japanese pirates next year, conscription, training, raising and hoarding money and food, preparations for warships, etc., countless matters, large and small, need to be planned and executed in the shortest possible time.

There is also the plan for Shuangyu Island and the formulation of the attack plan, which needs to be prepared and effective within half a year.

In addition to the key work, the daily work in Zhejiang and Fujian will also be brought together to Qin Zhongtang in the end, and it will also involve energy to deal with.

Originally, Qin Zhongtang thought that the shogunate subordinates he brought should be enough, besides, he recruited two new recruits in Hangzhou City.But through practical work, it is not enough.

These tasks are boring to say and do, but they are the daily routine of most of the shogunate staff.

Under the circumstance that Qin Zhongtang had to be consulted and made the final decision on countless matters, if Qin Zhongtang left the shogunate, it would be the most irresponsible behavior.

At this moment, Qin Zhongtang was holding a letter of "impeachment" and fell silent. Wu Chengen stood beside him, waiting for Qin Zhongtang's instructions.

The content in it is not difficult to understand. Some people impeached Lu Tong, the commander of the Fujian capital, for indiscriminately killing prisoners and embezzling and seizing property during the recent battle against Japanese pirates.

Of course, Qin Dewei knew who this Lu Tong was, or anyone with a little knowledge of Ming history should also know.

In the war against Japanese pirates in the Jiajing Dynasty in the original time and space, Lu Tong was the third person besides Yu Long and Qi Hu, and he was also a very capable general.

Moreover, this person became famous earlier than Yu Long and Qi Hu. Originally, Lu Tong was the main general who attacked Shuangyu Island a few years later in history.

Therefore, Lu Tong, who "proved himself", must be in Qin Zhongtang's heart list. Wouldn't the traverser copy his homework?

Of course, if it was just an impeachment, even if it was the impeachment of a provincial general like Lu Tong, it would not be enough for Wu Chengen to send it over in person and stand by to wait for instructions.

Everyone in the officialdom knows that impeachment is not only about who is being impeached, but more importantly, who is impeaching.

The person who impeached Lu Tong this time was Hu Zongxian, the censor who patrolled the sea, and this was the reason why Wu Chengen came here in person.

After all, Hu Zongxian and Qin Zhongtang are still related, and even the position of Xunhai Yushi was arranged by Qin Zhongtang.

"Hehehehe!" Qin Zhongtang suddenly couldn't help laughing out loud, as if what he was holding in his hand was not impeachment, but a book of jokes.

Wu Chengen secretly felt that Teacher Qin was becoming more and more unpredictable.Just like now, he couldn't understand at all what Teacher Qin's "laughter" meant.

Just ask if you don’t understand, “Why is the teacher laughing?”

Qin Zhongtang shook his head, he really couldn't tell others about his smile.

You, Hu Zongxian, have been famous in history for being lustful and greedy for money, yet you still impeach others for their personal morality?Isn't this funny?

Of course, the current Hu Zongxian is still a youth version. Apart from liking monthly subscriptions, he may still have some ideals and enthusiasm.

After laughing, Qin Dewei threw the document of impeachment against Lu Tong to Wu Chengen, and ordered: "There is no need to deal with it, just give this impeachment to Lu Tong as it is! Let him take a closer look!"

Wu Chengen "suddenly realized", it turned out that this was Teacher Qin's scheming to "conquer" Lu Tong.

So Hu Zongxian's impeachment of Lu Tong was also instigated by Mr. Qin?
When I was thinking wildly, I heard Qin Dewei continue to order: "In addition, write a letter to Hu Zongxian in my personal name, the main content is only two points!

First, ask clearly, who in the end encouraged Hu Zongxian to impeach Lu Tong?Who did Hu Zongxian listen to?

Second, give me a good reprimand for Hu Zongxian!In other words, what I want to see more is that someone can impeach Hu Zongxian for indiscriminately killing prisoners and embezzling and seizing property! "

After Wu Chengen wrote them down one by one, he couldn't help feeling again that Mr. Qin was becoming more and more like a founder of the family.

But he was confused again. Could it be that Hu Zongxian was instructed by Teacher Qin?

Before leaving, Wu Chengen couldn't help but asked again: "Teacher just let Lu Tong go lightly like this?"

Qin Zhongtang asked rhetorically: "Otherwise, what else can we do? Do we want to reuse those who avoid the enemy and fear war?"

At this time, a standard battalion soldier sent to Ningbo came back.

After hearing the report, Qin Zhongtang threw away his pen and ordered to the left and right: "It's not too late! Let Qiantang County prepare the boat immediately! Set off to Ningbo for inspection immediately!"

 The poor mental state is not because of buying Argentina or Germany!It's annoying purely because there is no hope of unblocking after being locked at home for a month!
