Chapter 481: Pressing Forward


A fleet with the banner of the Daming Naval Division appeared outside Shuangyu Island.

Since Shuangyu Island was attached to the imperial court and reincorporated into the indoctrination of Wang Zhi, although there were also sailor ships coming, it was the first time that such a grand military battleship team appeared, and the officers and soldiers guarding the island did not know why, so they hurriedly sent a signal to inform the leader of the island, and at the same time signaled to the Ming army's naval warship to stop the ship.

The people in charge of the island now are He De and Liao En, two veterans, the two were junior colonels in the army when Su Ying's father was a general, and they went to sea with him to be pirates, and now Xu Hu and others are out to suppress bandits, so they will be responsible for Shuangyu Island.

When the two old men heard the news, they hurriedly sent a small boat to the sea to inquire about the situation, and the Ming army sailors replied that it was the officers and soldiers of the Taicang Guard, who had gone to sea to suppress the bandits for a long time, and asked to enter the island to rest and recuperate, and replenish food and drinking water.

Shuangyuwei is already the territory of the Ming Dynasty, how can the Ming fleet be forbidden to sail in and say that the three guards with sea ships are looking for Japanese robbers at sea all day long like headless flies, they know this, although the relationship between Shuangyuwei and other guards is not good, but Xu Hu has been trying to improve the relationship with each other, if he refuses at this time, he may not be able to refuse, but it makes the relationship between Xu Da and other guards in eastern Zhejiang worse.

Therefore, He De discussed with Liao En, and ordered the sailor fleet to be brought into the port by Taicang Wei.

However, as soon as Taicang Wei settled in the port terminal, he immediately turned his face.

He De and Liao En, who rushed to the dock to greet them, broke their heads and never imagined that their team would suddenly meet each other, there were not many soldiers and horses left on Shuangyu Island, and the head-on battle might not be such a strong Taicang Wei opponent, not to mention that they had been deceived into the heart.

It only took half an hour for the officers and soldiers of the Taicang Guard to occupy all the key points on the island, of course, such a fast speed also had a lot to do with He De and Liao En's order to give up resistance.

The defenders on the island were originally pirates, and although they had been attached to them for a while, they were untamed and had no sense of being obedient to the people, and they immediately resisted when they saw them use force.

Seeing that the situation was not good, He De and Liao En invariably drank and ordered everyone to immediately give up resistance and all surrender.

They accepted Xu Hu's entrustment to protect Shuangyu Island, not to burn the jade of Shuangyu Island.

At present, the officers and soldiers of the Taicang Guard, who have superior forces, have entered Shuangyu, and the only effect of the resistance is only to prolong the time occupied by them a little, and it has nothing to do with the overall situation.

Moreover, this time, the officers and soldiers of the Taicang Guards had an excuse to wash Shuangyu Island in blood, and there were so many old and weak women and children on the island, once they fell into a melee, the consequences would be unimaginable.

The sinister killing intent in the eyes of Ji Wenhe, the commander of the Taicang Guard, did not hide the spicy eyes of the two old men.

And after giving up resistance, officers and soldiers are officers and soldiers after all, and that kind of atrocity of exterminating people's surnames will still not be done.

There are tens of thousands of people on the island, and there are nearly 10,000 officers and soldiers of the Taicang Guard, so many pairs of eyes are watching, no one can stop so many mouths, and there are few officers and soldiers who dare to bear such a charge.

Ji Wenhe, the commander of Taicang Guard, couldn't help but be disappointed when he saw that the people on the island did not resist.

He is not the leader of a team of 100 people, and this is not a mountain village with only dozens of families, the slaughter of the people in the northern border of the Ming Dynasty as a Tartar to ask for rewards for their merits has only appeared in the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and few people dare to do this at this time, not to mention that there are so many people here, among the generals under Ji Wenhe, there may not be no place to stare at his position, looking forward to his downfall, without an excuse, Ji Wenhe will not dare to do such a thing as a releave.

Ji Wenhe announced to the people on the island the reason for taking over Shuangyu: Xu Hu had fornicated with the Japanese and had been arrested and questioned, he was ordered to take over Shuangyu, and the people on the island who seized the illegal dirt were stunned, and they couldn't understand what was going on.

In the mountains behind Shuangyu Island, a small boat was lowered into the water.

The sea area in front of Su Sanjie's residence has many reefs, which is not suitable for ships to navigate, but some small boats can still pass.

"Hurry up, go to Giethoorn Mountain immediately, and tell the third sister what happened here" After he noticed that the situation was not good, he immediately took advantage of the fact that the officers and soldiers had not yet controlled the whole island through wind and rain, and used his familiarity with the cave to sneak to the back mountain, found a descendant who was drying fishing nets, and hurriedly told him what happened in the front mountain, telling him to leave immediately.

The young man also knew that the situation was urgent, and hurriedly fled with his double oars.

The exit of the sea road has been blocked by the Taicang sailors, and he can't leave right now, so he has to hide under the mountain grottoes, wait until it gets dark, and then escape at night.

Ji Wenhe stood at the pier and sent people all over the island to search for property, and he was full of ambition.

Since the old marquis gave orders, he began to deliberately create incidents, intending to provoke Shuangyuwei.

He arbitrarily intercepted the warships and firearms allocated by the imperial court to Shuangyu Wei, gave the broken ships and rusted firearms to Shuangyu Island, and deliberately provoked the hostility and contempt of the coastal guards to Shuangyu, but unfortunately the series of means against Shuangyu has not been very effective, and he didn't expect Qiu Fu to help him a lot this time.

Suddenly, someone came running to report: "My lord, there is a merchant ship on the sea, it is about to sail into Shuangyu, do you want to intercept it?"

"Merchant Marine" Ji Wenhe's heart moved, and he waved his hand and said, "Don't alarm them, let them in."

As soon as the merchant ship came in, it was controlled by Ji Wenhe's people, the ship was from Luzon, and the owner of the ship was a Chinese living in Luzon, a native of Fuzhou, named Lu Mingzhi.

As soon as he saw that his merchant ship was being controlled, Lu Mingzhi was shocked and angry, and when he heard that Ji Wenhe was the leader of the garrison on the island, he immediately rushed up violently and shouted: "What's the matter with your officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, why did you detain my merchant ship Lu Mingzhi I tell you, I have dealings with your Lord Yang Xu, the auxiliary prince of the Ming Kingdom, and you dare to detain my ship."

When Ji Wenhe heard this, his eyes immediately lit up, and he immediately asked: "What do you have dealings with the Fuguo Gong?"

Lu Mingzhi thought he was afraid, and said proudly: "Yes, I have a very close relationship with your people who are auxiliary to the Duke of the Kingdom, if you know each other, hurry up and release my boat, otherwise, I will tell you to go around without food."

Ji Wenhe smiled and smiled happily: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, the water washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family didn't recognize the family."

Haha, this official was once instructed by the grandfather of Fuguo to give convenience to the owner of the Lu ship who came from Luzon, but because there was chaos on the island, the official was so busy that he forgot to ask your identity.

Come on, let the ship go, and don't move any of the goods on board."

After speaking, Ji Wenhe said to Lu Mingzhi cordially: "Master Lu, sit here, drink a cup of tea, and allow this official to make amends to you." ” It's still the same dark, unobstructed room.

The man was still sitting there, only coughing lightly from time to time, and there was a bowl in front of him, and there was half a bowl of decoction in the bowl, and there was a faint smell of medicine in the room.

He coughed a few times and said, "The shameless You soldier has been defeated, framed in robes, and will not atone for his sins.

Didn't the Shuangyu bandits always disagree with the Japanese bandits, and falsely accused them of colluding with the Japanese bandits, what kind of reasons did they use?"

"The surnames of the bandits in Shuangyu are difficult to change, and they are angry at the unfair treatment, so they collude with the Japanese in order to take revenge" The man chuckled and said, "Well, that's a good reason.

The emperor is a person who has led soldiers, of course, he knows that sometimes, in the face of all kinds of unfair treatment of relatives near and far, he is a veteran who has been in the army since childhood, and he has to be angry and scold his mother.

It is common for military salaries to be changed in an uproar, and it is still the officers and soldiers recruited from the common people, and the pirates who recruit an are arrogant and untamed, and this reaction is not outrageous.

Hehe, Shuangyuwei is unlucky, and Yang Xu is also going to have some relationship. ” The person on the other side: "However, Luo Yu and they didn't kill Xu Hu, do they have so much confidence to control this matter?"

The man laughed, "It's not that they don't want to kill, it's that they can't."

If all the guilty bearers are dead, they point to a pile of corpses and say to the emperor, "Everything is in their hands, do you think the emperor is so easy to fool?"

"So" "When have you ever seen the Son of Heaven personally ask about the case?"

"This" "Xu Hu is a general in the army, and the case has to be tried by the judge of the Governor's Office of the Five Armies, and the matter involves treason and banditry, or Jinyiwei can be tried by jury, and these two yamen are in their hands, and they are very good at calculating.

Besides, what Xu Hu said is very important and important is evidence, I think they will definitely concoct enough evidence."

"Yes, the villain understands.

Unexpectedly, before we had time to bring down Yang Xu, they actually helped a lot. ” The man on the other side coughed lightly a few more times, picked up the bowl and drank two sips of medicine, and said slowly: "Actually, I want to change my mind now."

Instead of getting rid of a Yang Xu, it is better to get rid of a group of military attaches of the Beiping system, but now the battle for succession is at a critical juncture, if Zhu Gaoxu's power is greatly weakened, then no one will be able to fight Zhu Gaochi in the ring, it's not appropriate, it's not appropriate."

He sighed softly and said, "Let's put this matter aside."

The evidence is in hand, when it is always useful, take it out when the time is ripe, hehe, the traps in the world were set for others at first, but later they often fell into themselves, Qiu Fu dug this pit, let's keep it for him first and ask Ji Wenhe to collect the evidence of Luo Yu and these people for later use."

"Yes, let's do it now."

"For now, let's take down Yang Xu first, let's help Zhu Gaochu, when he has the upper hand, he will take action against Zhu Gaochi's faction, the emperor has already favored Zhu Gaochu more, Zhu Gaochi will definitely suffer.

When Zhu Gaochi suffers a big loss and succumbs to the upper hand, let's send him the evidence that the Shuangyu group of thieves have received on behalf of others, and Zhu Gaochi will definitely not give up and fight back against Zhu Gaochu.

Got it?"

"The villain understands, hehe, call them dog-eat-dog" "Well, but just these charges, although they can make Yang Xu fall out of favor, they may not be able to bring him down, we have to add more firewood to him, and help Zhu Gaoxu to collect some other charges for Yang Xu, then it can be foolproof, let's do it now" As soon as he said this, someone outside whispered: "Master, the old marquis has sent someone, there is something urgent."

"Call Him In" A person hurriedly walked in outside, whispered to him, and laughed hehehe: "There is such a thing haha, Yang Xu, Yang Xu, this time, you are in a catastrophe" To be continued:
