Chongzhen Chat Group

Chapter 824 Inexplicable

"Drive!" shouted one after another, and a group of cavalry galloped past on the official road, completely ignoring the biting cold wind in winter. Behind these cavalry troops, there are groups of soldiers who have turned into long snakes and are running on their way. This formation caused the few passers-by on both sides of the official road to step aside, suspicious of the movements of this official army with a bit of fear.

"The flag is Liu, and they all look tall and powerful. He should be General Liu from the north, right?"

"Yes, it must be him. What are you doing in such a hurry? Are there another pirates coming ashore?"

"It's impossible. On New Year's Eve, the Xuxiang pirates were completely defeated by him. How could they dare to go ashore in such a short period of time? Those pirates can only be so rampant in the sea!"

"Could it be Hongyi's thing? I heard that Hongyi is in Taiping Port! Isn't this the direction to Taiping Port!"

"Those red-haired ghosts and those pirates have the same virtues, so just kill them all!"

"..."

The news about the Dutchman has spread, and even passers-by can guess a thing or two.

Yes, this army was led by Liu Guoneng who rushed to Taiping Port on the order of Sun Chuanting. No, as soon as they entered Changle County, they encountered a messenger sent by the Changle garrison.

"Report, Hongyi is trying to drive the grain ship out of Taiping Port, and the warships are also moving. Taiping Port has insufficient troops, please support!"

When Liu Guoneng heard this, he immediately shouted angrily: "These red barbarians are rebelling against heaven, how dare they!"

After he finished speaking, he immediately waved his hand and the cavalry started running again, running faster and faster, leaving the infantry behind and gradually disappearing at the end of the road.

In the dock fortress of Taiping Port, every artillery piece has taken off its gun jacket, and all the artillerymen are in place. Local soldiers are standing on the shore, all with serious faces, staring at the ships not far away on the sea. There was even a hint of worry on some people's faces.

The warships on the sea also turned sideways, with their muzzles opened, revealing cannons one after another. There weren't many people on the deck, and the few that were there were all looking nervously at the shore.

The port dock is backed by a large ship with three bows, loaded with grain. However, there were Ming soldiers and a few Hongyi soldiers on the boat. They seemed to be arguing about something, but looking at them, it seemed that no one could convince anyone.

Apart from this, there are almost no other people or ships in the entire Taiping Port. This is not usually the case. It was obvious that they hid when they saw the tense atmosphere.

Suddenly, the sound of horse hoofbeats came from far and near, finally breaking the tense confrontation at the port. When I saw a group of Ming cavalry coming, led by a banner with the word "Liu", I knew that General Liu Guoneng had arrived.

A military general immediately emerged from a house on the shore, and hurriedly greeted him with a few followers. He saluted and reported the current situation: "Sir, these red barbarians took some medicine and used their gunboats to threaten them. We also want to withdraw the grain ships..."

Liu Daneng sat on the horse, looking down from a high position. He first looked up at the warships on the sea, breathing evenly, and then lowered his head and asked: "Where are their heads? Can you explain them?"

"I didn't come over on the warship. I said I wanted to see Mr. Zhongcheng and ask for an explanation, saying that our Ming people are treacherous and cannot be trusted! They also said that they believed in our Ming Dynasty and worked hard to transport food from Nanyang, but they wanted to do something evil to them. ...Anyway, what they meant was that our Ming Dynasty wanted to destroy them, so they did this." The Changle garrison reported angrily, "The general will see that they have evil intentions, and they didn't listen to the order and sent the warship in. . Sir, please see, their cannon muzzles are all open. The general thinks that they have not changed their thief nature, so they want to go ashore to plunder!"

Next to Liu Guoneng was Ma San, the newly arrived Jinyiwei Xiaoqi. When he saw this situation, he felt that the situation was a bit serious, so he entered the chat group according to the regulations he learned when he officially joined the job, and privately chatted about the situation with Governor Sun Zhongcheng. .

However, Sun Chuanting was not in the chat group at this time, and his authority was not enough for the system to directly notify Sun Chuanting who was offline. But Emperor Chongzhen happened to be there and saw a private message, so he clicked on it.

Understanding the current situation, he couldn't help but frown. Did these Dutch people take the wrong medicine? Since the food has been transported, why are we still looking for trouble at this time? Logically speaking, we shouldn't!

At the Taiping Port Pier, Liu Guoneng was understanding the situation when he suddenly saw a group of local soldiers escorting a group of people over. Those people looked like Hongyi, and in this winter, they were sweating profusely, as if they had traveled a long way. generally.

"Report, these Hongyi are envoys to the Fuzhou Governor's Mansion, but they ran back halfway and were caught by their subordinates!"

The warships at sea seemed to have seen the situation on the shore. There seemed to be movement on those warships. There were more people on the deck, looking over here. At the same time, Liu Daneng's infantry vanguard arrived and drove into Taiping Port Pier one after another. There were a lot more Ming troops on the shore.

Seeing so many Ming troops, Aibi Ge couldn't help but believe the news she heard. At this time, when he heard that some people in the government began to yell and curse at his side, he couldn't help but said: "You know that people are treacherous and have no faith. Not only do they defraud us of our food, but they also want to eliminate us. We will not Those who were fooled..."

Liu Guoneng heard this Hongyi speak in the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, but said bad things about the Ming Dynasty with a look of disdain. He couldn't help but became furious. He used a horse whip and shouted sternly: "Barbarians like you, how dare you call me, the Ming Dynasty, treacherous?"

These ghost-like people, who used to rob less at sea, turned out to accuse Ming Dynasty of being treacherous. How could Liu Guo endure this!

"Why, you got so angry when you were told right?" Aibi Ge didn't lower his head at all, straightening his neck and mockingly said, "Nan Juyi was like this before, and the same is true for Sun Chuanting now, but he is not a trustworthy person! "

Nan Juyi was now an important minister of the imperial court. After being scolded by him, the Changle guard punched him before Liu Guo could take action. The pain was so painful that Aibi Ge couldn't say what he said next.

Ma San frowned when he saw this situation. He felt something was wrong, so he entered the chat group again, continued to chat with Sun Zhongcheng privately, and reported the latest situation.

When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, as a bystander, he felt baffled. There must be something wrong here. So, he immediately replied to Ma San: "Let Liu Guoneng calm down for a while, ask me about the situation clearly, and report to me. I will wait!"

As soon as he saw the emperor's reply, Ma San did not dare to be negligent. He immediately approached Liu Guoneng and conveyed the emperor's will in a low voice.
