Chapter 556: The Storm is Coming

At noon the next day, Leizhou Wharf was lively.

The news of the annihilation of the Blue Flag Gang had already come back, and many officials were waiting here early.

This time, not only the officials of Haikang County were present, but also the subordinate officials of the Leizhou Mansion were also present, and many gentry were accompanied by them, all of whom looked at Leizhou Bay with their eyes.

A pirate gang that had been in trouble for more than ten years in Thunder Prefecture really disappeared, which made them all feel unreal, and some people even doubted the authenticity of this matter, suspecting that Lin Haoran was lying about the matter.

It's just that their suspicions were quickly slapped in the face, because a mighty fleet sailed into the Leizhou wharf where it was going, and hundreds of prisoners were taken down from the ship by Leizhou Wei, and there was no shortage of wanted criminals from the government.

"Xiaguan see Lord Ministry, Lord Futai, congratulations on the triumphant return of the two adults!"

When the two big men stepped down from the boat, Wei Zhixian and Chen Tongju led the officials of their respective yamen to step forward respectfully and bowed down in a proper manner.

They were in awe of Wang Fang, the governor of Liangguang, but they also admired their boss, Lin Haoran.

This young lord of the mansion not only built a dock in Leizhou Bay, but also annihilated all the pirates entrenched in Leizhou Bay, so that the prospect of opening the sea is very good.

Wang Fang has long been accustomed to this kind of etiquette. However, today's storm is a bit big, and he is an old man after all, but he is reluctant to talk more.

Lin Haoran is a human spirit, and he also has the ability to observe faces, so he said lightly to these subordinate officials: "Get up!" The adults of the ministry are a little sleepy, and some red tape will be waived, let's go back to Leizhou City directly! ”

"The subordinate obeys!"

These are Lin Haoran's subordinate officials, so naturally they don't dare to disobey.

The newly built Leizhou Avenue is not too long, and these officials have prepared official sedan chairs and guards.

If it were usual, Lin Haoran would definitely choose to take a carriage, and he was unwilling to stay in the sedan chair like a coffin. But today Wang Fang is sitting in an official sedan chair, and he can only be an accompaniment, so he chose his official sedan chair and got in.

The team had already prepared, that is, they lifted these two big men and returned to the Zhenyang Gate of Leizhou City, and there were constant firecrackers along the way.

"Did you hear that? The Blue Flag Gang was destroyed? ”

"Is it really destroyed? A few days ago, Lin Lei Gong took people out of the city just to make a show! ”

"Look? Let me tell you, there is nothing in this world that Lin Lei can't do! ”

"That's it! Look at Lin Leigong's arrival, what things he can't do? ”

……

This great victory is also good in Leizhou City. The people in the city were very excited to gossip, this Lin Lei Gong not only acted vigorously against the bully squire, but also said that the pirates who had been harmed for a long time would be eliminated, which was really praised by the people.

In the same way, Lin Lei Gong's prestige is even greater, and some people even suspect that he is really the reincarnation of Lei Gong and came to Leizhou City to save them.

In the evening of the same day, a feast was held in the Leizhou Mansion, in addition to the participation of many officials, all the squires were also present. First, it is to celebrate the achievement and the great evil of getting rid of the Blue Flag Gang; The second is to practice for Wang Fang, this big man will leave early tomorrow morning.

As the governor of Liangguang, Wang Fu was busy with official business, especially when the news of the invasion of the Chaozhou Mansion by the Japanese invaded made him have to go to deal with it, or return to the Governor's Mansion in Wuzhou immediately.

According to the latest news, a group of Japanese pirates from Fujian Province invaded Chaozhou Prefecture, numbering 1,000 people. In Jieyang County, several villages were looted, and thousands of households defending the city were killed, causing the local people to panic.

There is even news that this gang of Japanese robbers has great plans, and they have planned to attack the county seat of Jieyang to carry out large-scale plunder. As the case was, many of the wealthy families had fled to the Chaozhou or Guangzhou provinces, casting a shadow over the whole of Guangdong.

It has to be said that as a result of the slowdown in the number of Japanese pirates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, the number of Japanese pirates flowing from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Fujian has increased, resulting in a sudden aggravation of the problem of Japanese pirates in the coastal areas of Guangdong.

Especially under this critical situation, some rebel forces that had fled to the mountains and forests were also ready to move, and the rebel armies of Zhang Lian and Lin Chaoxi in Chaozhou had already taken action, while the rebel armies in Guangxi were eyeing each other.

Once the coastal areas of Guangdong were hit hard by the Japanese invaders, those rebel armies would inevitably take advantage of the situation, and even the Yao people and Dong people who had been suppressed before would respond, and the entire Liangguang region might fall into turmoil.

Wang Fang's current position seems to be majestic, but in fact, the pressure is no less than that of Lin Haoran. Once he achieves merit, he can certainly make him worship Jiuqing, but if something happens, he can only go to Nanjing to retire.

He is also at a fork in the road of his career, either promoted to become wealthy, or never recovered.

"If you are foolish, the stability of Leizhou depends on you!"

Wang Fang chose to set off early in the morning, and said sincerely to Lin Haoran, who came to greet him without a nod.

He had to think of the fact that the Japanese invaded here led by Xu He, and it was difficult to guarantee that there would be a second and more powerful group of Japanese invaders, which caused the Leizhou Mansion to also fall into turmoil.

If there is another turmoil in Leizhou Mansion, then he will have to divide his troops here, which will not be conducive to his pacification of Chaozhou. This will inevitably make the problem more complicated, and even plunge the entire coastal area of Guangdong into turmoil, then he, the governor of Liangguang, will be doomed.

"Xia Guan will do his best!" Lin Haoran met his expectant gaze and responded seriously.

In fact, he was also afraid and worried in his heart, if those would-be wouldn't be for this Leizhou, let alone thousands of would-be wouldn't be able to plunge Leizhou Mansion into turmoil.

But what made him feel a little at ease was that now he had a tiger squat cannon suitable for field warfare, and the Shendian Guard led by Qi Jiguang was here, which gave him some confidence.

In addition, Leizhou is located in the west of Guangdong, and if the Japanese want to fight, they need to pass through Chaozhou, Huizhou, Guangzhou, Zhaoqing and other places. But their ships need to be resupplied, so it is likely that there has already been a war with the officers and soldiers of the local guard station, and they will not be able to reach the Leizhou Mansion at all.

It's just that things are not afraid of 10,000, just in case, everything must be prevented. After seeing off Wang Fang, he immediately returned to the government and began to make intense arrangements.

On the one hand, it is to prevent the Japanese from coming from the sea route, so that Leizhouwei and Shendianwei can be deployed before the war; On the other hand, he made final preparations for the opening of the sea, striving to open a route through the South Seas, and no matter how tense the atmosphere was, he did not forget his main work.
