Taiping Inn

The eight years of Tianbao have passed, and time has entered the nine years of Tianbao.

A case about fugitive slaves spread to the government and the country.

Logically speaking, this is a trivial matter and there is no need for any discussion. However, many scholars, great scholars and Qingliu officials seemed to have discussed in advance and stood up to "speak for justice", so the news seemed to have grown wings and soon spread all over the country.

A small escaped slave case seemed to have become a major event that concerns the world and people's hearts in the blink of an eye. It seems that if this matter cannot be perfectly solved, it will make people feel disheartened and disappoint people in the world.

Anyone with knowledge can tell that this is the drunkard's intention is not to drink.

The reason for such a farce is that one is because someone is behind the scenes and wants to make a big fuss about this matter; the other is because the two parties involved in this matter have special identities. One is the mansion of the saints of the three families in the world, and the other is The Beihai Li in the Qin and Li marriages are all powerful people who have dominated Qizhou for many years, which inevitably reminds people of the four words "The Controversy in Qizhou".

According to the rules, before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the six departments of the imperial cabinet and the county government were not open, but because of this, this convention was broken. First, there was the county government office of Donglu County, then the government office of Dongping Prefecture, and then the imperial censorship office of Qizhou. After walking for a few days, I finally got to the Governor's office on the tenth day of the first lunar month. .

The people from the saint's mansion sued the Li family for sheltering the fugitive slaves and asked the Li family to release the detained fugitive slaves. On the Li family, Li Rushi came forward on his behalf and replied that he had never seen any escaped slaves. Instead, he sued the saint's mansion to indulge the slaves in the family and beat the Li family to death.

As a result, the two sides began to attack each other.

In the mouths of the Confucian people, the new patriarch of the Li family was a fierce, violent and useless person. The evidence was that he beat the great master Zhang Jingchen to death in anger in the Dazhen Mansion. Moreover, he is lewd and indecent, likes male style, and raises children. The evidence is that he is not close to women.

Although the Confucian school has the power to speak, the great Confucians have too high status and mostly float in the sky. Many times they are not so connected with the earth. People below may not be able to hear it, nor may they feel it.

But Daomen has the power of wealth and can also make a sound through various bookstores and bookshops, and it is widely circulated. Generally speaking, the stories of Romance are always circulated more widely than official history, and this is the credit of the story book. The Taoist sect did not target a person, nor did they deliberately arrange some things. Instead, they polished some of the things that the great scholars had done and sent them again, such as the water was too cold, such as a tree of pear blossoms that pressed the crabapple, such as beauty bowls, The fight for the chief minister first lets his granddaughter be a concubine and then poisons his granddaughter to death, such as the story of a family occupying 400,000 acres of land and the people starve to death.

For ordinary people, who is Li Xuandu, the new patriarch of the Li family, they have never heard of, how cruel and unkind this person has never seen it, just like the fictional general in the story, who massacred the city and destroyed the land, killed the land, and surrendered the country. No one finds it scary. But the gentry took advantage of the robbery, and even used other people's wives and daughters to offset the rent, which was really happening around them, especially 400,000 acres of land. What does that mean? The people probably know that the land is what ordinary people care about the most. They know how big acre of land is and how much grain they produce. Four hundred thousand acres of land are more intuitive than a mountain of gold and silver.

In the words of the Taoist sect, they have never made up random things, they just retell them.

The Taoist sect is obviously

Come prepared and move very quickly. In just half a month, many stories spread throughout Qizhou and were still spreading outward. The people of the Confucian school were suddenly panicked and had to panic. What does Taoist sect want to do? This is to slap them in the face, to ruin their reputation, and to dig their foundation. Is this going to stir up those mud legs to rebel? Therefore, many gentry personally took people to smash bookstores. All storytellers were not allowed to take relevant contents in wine shops and teahouses. Violators were imprisoned for being punished.

At this time, we can see the skills of the Confucian Sect. Although Qin Dao was the governor of Qizhou, the Confucian Sect was able to bypass the governor and directly give orders to the officials under his command, and those officials dared not ignore them, because They were originally a member of the gentry.

However, the Taoist people were not tenant people who allowed the gentry to bully them. They sent people to fight directly. The two sides fought many times, but there were no big wars, and there were constant small wars, and each suffered damage.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Xuandu had already left the Li family's ancestral home in Beihai Prefecture and returned to the Qingweizong of Donghai. On the 30th day of the first lunar month, the Confucian gentry mobilized gentry to lead people to surround the Li family's ancestral home and ancestral hall, claiming to destroy the tablets of the Li family's ancestors, and planned to follow the example of the gentry of Jinling Prefecture to drive away the Jiangzhou Governor and the Jiangnan Weaving Prefecture Superintendent In the right matter, Qin Daofang, the governor of Qizhou who was injustice, was to drive away the unfair judgment of the case.

Li Xuandu, who was far away in the East China Sea, heard about this and ordered the Qingweizong fleet to be dispatched to advance to Bohai Prefecture.

This time it is destined to be shocked by the government and the country.

The Qingwei Sect has more than 60 "Qingjiao" equipped with artillery, more than 30 "Yellow Dragon", more than 100 "Purple Dragon", and ten "Qinglong".

This time, Li Xuan sent five "Qinglong" ships, twenty "Huanglong" ships, forty "Qingjiao" searches, and more than sixty "Purple Dragons". It cannot be said that they were all moving, but most of them were The Qingweizong fleet is here.

Li Xuan even asked Qin Daofang to buy him a month, not only to gather manpower, but also to gather the fleet of Qingwei Sect. It was as if before hitting someone, he had to take back his fist before he could make a second punch. Moreover, the East China Sea is not as freezing as the North China Sea, and it will not freeze. The large ships will pass without any obstacles. It only takes a few hours to start from the Qingwei Sect.

It is true that the Qingwei Sect did not have 200,000 cavalry in hand, and could not be separated from the ground and established himself as kings. But if it really angered the Qingwei Sect, the Qingwei Sect was able to besiege the Bohai Prefecture while sending a fleet to Dajiangkou, capture Zhenjiang Prefecture, and bombard Jinling Prefecture, and make a stance to cut off the canal transportation. Then the entire court had to panic.

The mist in the morning had just dissipated, and countless tiny black dots appeared from the line of the sea and sky. Then these tiny black dots were getting closer and closer. It turned out to be a vast fleet of ships, with masts like forests and sails like clouds. , lined up and slowly advanced towards the near sea, and the imperial court did not have enough artillery to fight, and the Bohai Prefecture did not have enough artillery.

This time, Zhang Haishi personally led the fleet. He is not only a master of kendo, but also good at maritime affairs. He is more proficient in this matter than Li Xuandu.

Zhang Haishi's ship was a "green dragon" ship. He raised his hand and looked at him thousands of miles away. He could vaguely see the figures on the wall of the Bohai Mansion, running back and forth, obviously very panic.

The Qingwei Sect disciples standing beside Zhang Haishi reported: "Deputy Sect Master, news from each ship has been in place."

Zhang Haishi did not rush to issue an order.

According to the information sent back by Tianji Hall, Bohai Prefecture is not without a navy, but the ships are dilapidated. It is even worse than "Qingjiao", and it is even worse than "Huanglong" and "Qinglong". In terms of quantity, there are only two

More than ten ships. As for other merchant ships or civilian ships, they have already received the news and left this place. This is also the tradition of the Qingwei Sect. Before every major move, they will act as a ban on the sea. Merchants who have been on the sea for a long time can roughly determine where the Qingwei Sect should take action through the ban on the Qingwei Sect. This is also based on the invincibility of the Qingwei Sect fleet. This is the confidence accumulated in three naval battles. Even if there is no need to attack and fight head-on, no one will be the opponent of the Qingwei Sect.

The entire Bohai Prefecture has a total of about 4,000 troops, two thousand defending the city, and two thousand navy troops.

It is undoubtedly a dream to have a navy that has been separated for only two thousand long battle formations, and more than twenty broken ships, it is undoubtedly a dream to resist the invincible fleet of Qingwei Sect that traverses all over the world.

The Bohai Mansion has no artillery, but these artillery are as old as those warships. It is actually not as good as the artillery on the warships. It can also play a role in dealing with bandits without artillery. It is the warships of Weizong of Shangqing. Only passively get beaten.

Zhang Haishi put down Qianliwang in his hand and ordered: "A round of test fire, calibrate the cannon."

This disciple of Qingwei Sect took the order and left.

With Zhang Haishi's order, various ships and artillery large and small were fired together, and smoke rose and the flames flashed, covering half of the fleet, as if a large "smoke cloud" had accumulated on the sea surface.

In the first round of artillery shells, most of the shells fell on the sea, causing countless huge splashes. The disciples of Qingwei Sect quickly calibrated the artillery based on the results of the shelling. However, even so, there were still several ships parked in the port. The ship was unlucky and was sunk on the spot.

Zhang Haishi carried his hands on his back, and the golden sunlight fell on him, as if he had a layer of gold edges on him. Then he ordered again: "Second round of artillery attacks, striving to sink all enemy ships."

The responsible person in charge of ordering the disciples of Qingwei Sect to turn around and leave immediately, and then inform other warships through flag slogans.

Soon, the artillery of the Qingweizong warships roared in unison for the second time, and these warships were all living targets, so naturally there was no room for escape and they were directly sunk.

Zhang Haishi raised his thousand-mile look in his hand again and observed Bohai Mansion.

Li Xuandu’s purpose this time was not to capture the Bohai Prefecture, but to force peace with war. The meaning of the words was simple. If the Confucian Sect dared to attack on land in Qizhou, he would dare to break through the Bohai Prefecture and enter the Grand Canal. Directly pointing to the imperial capital.

Therefore, the scale must be grasped well.

Zhang Haishi ordered: "The third round of artillery attacks, aim at the city wall, knock on the mountain and shake the tiger."

"Yes." The disciple ordered the disciple to take the order and leave again.

Not long after, continuous smoke rose on the sea, covering the sky and the sun, and even covering the sails, mixed with flashing fire, accompanied by a loud bang like thunder.

More than a thousand solid shells carried the whistling sound, dragging tail marks visible to the naked eye, and landed on the city wall of Bohai Mansion.

In an instant, the city walls of Bohai Mansion were also shrouded in rising smoke and dust, rocks shot out, and broken bricks were like rain.

Standing on the city wall, I felt like I was being moved by the ground. Many soldiers were shocked and fell to the ground, and even unlucky people were blown away by the huge air waves.

The earth trembled, and the entire Bohai Prefecture city shook slightly under the power of more than a thousand artillery artillery.

When the news of Qingweizong's bombardment of Bohai Mansion reached the Imperial Capital, Emperor Tianbao was writing and smashed the inkstone worth a thousand gold on the spot. Then he immediately summoned the cabinet's chief assistant, secondary assistant and Mr. Bai Lu. et al.
