The small fishing boat swayed back the way it came in the waves, and the tall "Danzhou" did not pursue, but unhurriedly opened the gun window, revealing the swarthy gun muzzle. 【】
"Boom" and "boom" two cannon shots, two huge solid shells fell on both sides of the fishing boat, one left and one right, a little far away, but the waves still made the fishing boat crumble.
Lao Jia's face was pale, and he grabbed the side of the boat with both hands: "My lord, they really opened fire...... "He doesn't know how to water, for fear that the boat will capsize."
Although Zhou Guoxin knew water, his reaction was not much better than him, his face was bloodless, and he couldn't speak. In the face of the power of the cannon, flesh and blood are so small.
The gunner on the "Danzhou" saw that the shell was too far away, so he adjusted the angle, and the second time the landing point was much closer.
With two "boom" and "boom" sounds, two shells of more than 60 catties fell on both sides of the fishing boat, with an interval of only a few tens of meters, splashing up a column of water several people high, and the waves rippled from the place where the shells fell into the water, lifting the fishing boat into the air.
The small fishing boat could not withstand such waves, and finally overturned with a bang, and all three people on board were thrown into the sea.
A small boat was put down on the "Danzhou" and came to catch the live mouth. Lao Jia grabbed a wooden plank and shouted hoarsely for help in the undulating waves: "Help! I won't ......."
Not far away, under the cover of night, Zhou Guoxin paddled hard and swam to the shore. He had only one thought: the people of the Qiongzhou camp were ruthless, and if they fell into their hands, they would definitely be tortured, and when they got the news they needed, they would kill people and kill them—he himself had done this countless times—and he had to find a way to escape. Fortunately, the fishing boat has not been far out of the sea, and it should be able to swim back to shore by gritting its teeth.
Behind him, Lao Jia's cries continued, the dinghy rowed over, and fished Lao Jia and the fishermen up, Zhou Guoxin didn't care about looking back, just gritted his teeth and swam forward.
On the morning of the second day, Lingao County.
After Wu Mingjin, the magistrate, washed, as usual, he sat in the study.
Days like this have been going on for some time. Since the Qiongzhou battalion - at that time it was still called the escort team, or called Lingao Xiangyong - repelled the encirclement and suppression of the city, the county government has been completely hollowed out, and his main county order is just an ornament. Xia Nan didn't bother to kill him, or keep him to decorate the façade, his life was saved, and his power disappeared.
When the Qiongzhou battalion defeated the Guangdong army, and successfully washed ashore, and obtained a legal identity, in Lingao can be called a one-handed cover of the sky, the existence of the county government is even lower to the bottom, as the county commander Wu Mingjin neither has the courage to be generous and righteous, nor can he find a way to welcome the "thief", and when he goes out to see the jubilant appearance of the people, he feels blocked, so he can only hide in the study every day to sit and pass the time.
It wasn't until yesterday that former aide Qian Youyu visited that his fate took a turn for the better. After he implicitly expressed his attitude, Qian Youyu also opened his heart and said that he was willing to join hands with him to do a few things that could enter the eyes of the summer south of the law, and seek a future under the "rule" of the Qiongzhou camp.
It sounds a little ridiculous, the civil officials of the Ming Dynasty want to look up to the martial arts, and they are also the parents of a county, and if they are placed in other places, they will laugh off other people's big teeth. But the situation is stronger than people, the current Qiongzhou battalion is a land-sitting household that can defeat the Ming army in the whole province, and no one can control the entire Liangguang, and Wu Zhixian, who was hit to doubt his life, can no longer take care of the discipline of the literati.
Wu Mingjin made a cup of strong tea, sat in the study and thought: How can I please Xia Nan and hug the thick thigh of Qiongzhou Ying?
At this time, there was a commotion in the front hall of the county government, interrupting Wu Mingjin's contemplation. He got up in annoyance, wanting to call someone to ask what was going on, but before the words came out, he suddenly remembered that he had no sense of existence in the county government, and even the officials only listened to Wang Xiancheng and Lin Dianshi, even if they broke their throats, no one would pay attention to themselves - Wang Xiancheng and Lin Dianshi, the two wallgrasses who killed a thousand knives, succumbed to the obscenity of the Qiongzhou camp very early, and were willing to be their minions, and now they are fake tigers and don't take him in their eyes at all.
Wu Mingjin sat down again, opened a book, and tried to calm his mood.
But the uproar in the front hall continued, with no sign of ending.
Wu Mingjin sat down and got up several times, but finally couldn't hold it anymore, walked out of the study, and walked to the front hall, wanting to see what was going on.
Arriving in the front hall, several scribes and servants stopped an unkempt man, his clothes dirty and messy, and the two sides were arguing about something. Wu Mingjin coughed and said in a deep voice: "Who is making noise in the county government, pulling and pulling like this above the public court, what kind of system is it?" ”
When the scribes saw him, they didn't care too much, and someone replied casually: "County Zun, this guy is clamoring to see you, but he refuses to tell his identity or what he sees you, and we are afraid of disturbing you, so we stopped it." ”
Someone named Wu Mingjin to see him, and the last time something like this happened was two years ago. Wu Mingjin suddenly had the urge to cry, someone still took me seriously.
He waved his sleeves and shouted, "Wait and retreat for the time being, don't stop it, see what this person has to say." ”
The scribes and officials were stunned and looked at each other. The current situation of the county government, they know better than anyone else, out of the gate of the county government, the Qiongzhou camp has the final say, close the door, Wang Xiancheng and Lin Dianshi have the final say, and now the county master who is like a mud bodhisattva suddenly comes out and runs out to brush up on his sense of existence, whether he listens or not?
Seeing that he had spoken, these people still didn't move, Wu Mingjin was angry: "What's the matter, in this public court, what I said doesn't work?" ”
After all, he was still the magistrate of the main hall, and no matter what these scribes thought in their hearts, they didn't want to offend him on the surface, so after giving each other a few glances, they let go of their hands and took a few steps back.
This man named Hanako got rid of his fetters, walked up to Wu Mingjin, and said in a hoarse voice: "You are Linkochi County?" I'll show you something. As he spoke, he lifted his clothes and showed him a waist tag around his waist.
After Wu Mingjin saw the words "Jinyiwei", his head was a little dizzy, and he suddenly regretted it, he was so miserable, what kind of muddy water did he wade? I knew that I wouldn't come out if I stayed in the study.
This person is Zhou Guoxin, he tried his best to swim back to the shore, escaped the pursuit of the sailor, walked back to Lingao County from the shore of Hongshi Island, walked more than ten miles of night road, tossed all the way, dirty and called Huazi.
The waterway can't go, and sneaking into the people's homes is also self-defeating-the Qiongzhou battalion has already mobilized the chiefs of various departments to check the living, and Zhou Guoxin didn't dare to try a second time in such a dangerous situation yesterday - thinking about it, he had to come to the local government and seek refuge.
Seeing that the other party did not react, he was displeased. Lao Tzu can't help a military general with a heavy army, can't he clean up a county in your county? He snorted and whispered: "I am Zhou Guoxin, the hereditary hundred households of Guangdong Jinyiwei, please take a step to speak." ”
Wu Mingjin was helpless, Jin Yiwei couldn't afford to offend, so he had to say carefully: "Please move to the official's study to speak." (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
