Two days later, when Tusab hurried to Chen Xinhuai, who was in Guangzhou City, went to pay homage to Sun Shiyi, the Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi was already considering how to expel him by force, and had sent his confidants to search for experts everywhere, seeking ways to break the magic of the great iron ship.

When Chen Xinhuai reported to Sun Shiyi, he said with conviction that Zhao Ni was on the boat, which surprised Sun Shiyi. He did not expect Zhao Ni to come by himself. Later, Chen Xinhuai mentioned that Zhao Ni was shameless and could blow the Pinghumen Fort with five cannons and two cannons collapsed the Guangzhou city wall, which made Sun Shiyi even more angry. After hearing Chen Xinhuai said that there were only a hundred people on the Thunder God, he became more determined to use force to solve the problem.

If this can break the opponent's magic, take down the ship, or even get Zhao Xin, be promoted and promoted, this great achievement is enough to shine the ancestors! Although Sun Shiyi is 65 years old this year and is nearly 70 years old, he always wants to climb higher and get something.

If you want to be promoted quickly, the most important thing is military merit!

Since we want to take action, we have to first calculate the strength. Sun Shiyi’s own 3rd Battalion of Superbiao has a total of 2,700 troops, and more than 800 people in Zhaoqing Naval Division. In Tusab, the fifth Battalion of Extra-Ball has more than 4,000 people, and in Guangzhou General Cuntai, there are less than 3,000 people. And these cannot be moved...

So this unlucky and glorious task fell on the head of the deputy general of Xiangshan Association. After receiving the summoning order from Sun Shiyi, the deputy general rushed to Guangzhou without stopping, and the governor gave the opportunity in person, and then brought a Taoist priest invited from the Sanyuan Palace in Guangzhou back to the Xiangshan County headquarters.

The reason why this mission fell on the Xiangshan Association is because of the cruise control system in Guangdong offshore. Xiangshan Association is responsible for offshore cruises in the second half of the year. As the saying goes, who will you go if you don’t go?

But when the deputy general summoned his battalions and announced the military order of the governor, a general who came to attend the meeting raised an objection. When the deputy general looked at it, he thought to himself, and said to me, who it was, it turned out to be this guy. This right camp guard is no one else, but Li Dagang, who had failed to escape from prison many times in the labor camp reform site in Beihai Town!

After Li Dagang was released from the beginning of the year, he stayed in Beijing for several months. During this period, he spent money and asked people to find ways to operate an official position, thinking that I had to stay away from those evil people.

He was originally a second-class guard of the fourth grade, and it was impossible for him to become a fourth-class official after being released. So the Ministry of War issued a transfer order to let him come to Xiangshan Association to be a fifth-class guard of the right camp.

Although Li Dagang was a little discouraged, his family was from Dongguan, so he could go home often. As a result, he made plans and unexpectedly Zhao Ni came to Guangdong on a boat. A few days ago, he heard a big boat came from Tanzai Island. After careful investigation, he almost cried, "The God of Plague, why don't I let me go anywhere?"

"Sir, I have some understanding of those demons. If you want to take action this time, you need to plan carefully."

After hearing Li Dagang's words, Mr. Shi, deputy general of Xiangshan Association, curled his lips and sneered: "Sun Jiantai had already made plans and specially invited Taoist Ma from Sanyuan Palace. Before launching, we will set up a large formation around Zhao Ni's ship to break the magic! Then each battalion attacked and boarded the ship to break the enemy!"

"Big formation?" Li Dagang was stunned and then bowed, "I wonder what kind of formation it is?"

The deputy general glanced at everyone in the hall and said with a smile: "I'm welcome to Master Ma."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Taoist priest with a fairy-like expression and a white-bearded hair walked in.

"My dear sirs, in the 15th generation of the Luofu Mountain Longmen Sect, he is currently stationed in the Sanyuan Palace in Xima."

At this time, everyone heard the deputy general say: "Master Ma was specially invited by Sun Jiantai from Sanyuan Palace. The matter of destroying the enemy's demonic method will be done by Master Ma."

Li Dagang almost glared out his eyes, thinking that he was joking?! He had been in Beihai Town for nearly two years and had some knowledge of some details. What kind of magic is there? It is all mechanical power.

Speaking of which, when searching Lengji Island to dig gold, a sand pump on the mine had a problem, and Zhao Liang came here to repair it. Li Dagang saw clearly that the sand pump was filled with gears and other metal parts, and there was no evil spirit at all. However, this was the reason why he became more and more afraid. He thought that one of the machines in Beihai Town could withstand the power of a hundred people. If the court wanted to win, it would only take 100,000 troops and land to launch together!

"Sir! The mark is under the quotation that in this sneak attack, we must prepare more gunpowder ships, quietly approach one side of the pirate ship, and then ignite the gunpowder. Our army took advantage of the enemy's panic and then boarded the ship with ropes from the other side. In this way, we can have a fight!"

"Just! Sun Jiantai once visited the vicinity of the pirate ship and observed it with his own eyes before formulating the following strategy. It's your turn to question it!"

Li Dagang finally tried hard and said, "Sir! Zhao Ni's bow cannon is as fast as lightning. If he doesn't attack, it will be very difficult for us to get close. Please give it a clear lesson!"

The deputy general sneered and said proudly: "Sun Jiantai had already made a decision on this matter. In addition to Master Ma's method of opening the altar, this official has notified Xiangshan County Government and ordered him to summon old prostitutes over 25 years old in the city to set up a large array of Yinmen. Any quick cannon will turn into a fire stick!"

As soon as this said, the generals in the room burst into laughter and exclaimed: "Sir, great advice! This trick is amazing!"

The deputy general waved his hand and said, "I have no idea. These are all tips from Master Ma, plus Master Ma's spell."

Master Ma Benchu ​​said modestly: "Wuliang Tianzun, what Sun Jiantai said is very consistent with the principles of yin and yang. The so-called old yin overcomes yang is nothing more than this. I am really ashamed of my little Taoist practice! I will fight for my life at that time, and I will not succeed in the thief's magic. I think the emperor and Sun Jiantai share the worries."

Li Dagang laughed at the room, and the generals with a proud look on their faces, but their hearts were extremely weird and desolate. How could such a group of people defeat the thief?

At the end of the military discussion, the deputy general conveyed Sun Shiyi's order to the garrison officers of each battalion. Three days later, in the early morning, when the yang energy was not strong, a large formation was set up on the periphery of the enemy ship on Tanzai Island, and then launched an attack, striving to wipe out Zhao Ni's troops and capture the large ship.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! When Li Dagang heard it, he thought that the early morning was the time when people were the worst in spirit and the lowest in defense. It seems that there is still a chance.

After returning to the camp in the afternoon of the same day, Li Dagang ordered his subordinates to build flags of various practices according to Ma Benchu's requirements, and at the same time ordered his confidants to collect small fishing boats and sampans and prepare to put gunpowder bags on them. He still felt that his method was the safest. More than a dozen fishing boats filled with gunpowder would not sank Zhao Ni's large iron ships at that time, at least they could blow up a big hole!

So from the second day, there was a scramble inside and outside Xiangshan County. The madams, mothers, teachers and other women in various brothels, who were over 25 years old, were locked by county servants with ropes and took them to the teaching grounds in Xiangshan City to stand by.

At the same time, the Taoist priest named Ma Benchu ​​also set up an altar on the beach and put on a robes to start his practice. Before going to the Sanyuan Palace, this person had been practicing in Chongxu Temple in Huizhou; and there was a very famous god in Chongxu Temple - the Nine Heavens Yingyuan Thunder Sound Puhua Tianzun, which is the Taoist Thunder Ancestor.

Sun Shiyi thought very carefully. Since Zhao Ni's big ship was called Thunder God, he would ask Taoist Leizu to come down to earth and restrain the other party.

The horse Benchu ​​had his hair loose, burned a sacrificial text, bit his tongue, and squirted blood on the peach wood sword, muttering something. Chen Xinhuai, deputy general of Xiangshan Assistant, Xiangshan County Magistrate, and the Haifang Tongzhi Yamen, Chen Xinhuai and others stood beside him.

"The ceremony of refuting one's will. The nine heavens are Yingyuan Mansion, the supreme Jade Qing King. He transforms into a body and fills the ten directions, talks about the Tao and lies with the nine phoenixes... The Supreme Star, responds to changes without stopping. He drives away evil spirits, protects his life and protects his body. His wisdom is clear and his mind is peaceful. The three souls are permanent, and the soul is not depressed. Hurry up and follow the rules of the law!"

Everyone waited for more than an hour, and suddenly the sea was covered with clouds, and a rumbling thunder sounded, and it soon started to rain heavily. Everyone present had forgotten that it was the typhoon season in July and August, and the fact that it was already rainy along the coast of Guangdong was full of rain. They were overjoyed and shouted, "The emperor is wise, there is hope for breaking the thief!"

Chen Xinhuai stood under an umbrella, respectfully worshipped Bei, and smiled and said, "Thunder Ancestor Breaking Thunder God, Humph, Zhao Thief, I see how long you can be proud!"

The heavy rain fell for a day and a night, and lightning and thunder were heard. Long purple lightning broke through the sky, making people feel broken. However, the Qing generals and generals of Xiangshan Association were greatly motivated and were ready to fight; except for Li Dagang...

Two days later, a lucky boat departing from Quanzhou arrived at the entrance of the Lei Yue Mun Strait in Hong Kong Island. The boat was sitting on Shen Jingdan and his party.

It is said that in the Qing Dynasty, there were eight major sea estuaries entering Guangzhou from the outer sea. Foreign merchant ships walked through the Tiger Gate and passenger ships walked through the Tiger Gate. The Tiger Gate was in the northeast of Macau, while the Tiger Gate was west of Macau.

Shen Jingdan and his friends arrived in Quanzhou on July 16th. Thanks to his many years of traveling between Nagasaki, they met many merchants from Zhejiang and Fujian. After the group arrived in Quanzhou, they found a lucky boat to Guangzhou at the Zhejiang Guild Hall a day later. Most of the good guys who went south with Lu Shoushan were from Shandong. When they sat down, they all gritted their teeth and carried it. As a result, they fell ill as soon as they arrived in Quanzhou. Lu Shoushan had no choice but to leave two more boats and asked them to ask the doctor to take care of their partners.

After the Fu Ship went to sea from Quanzhou, it soon arrived at Nanao Island, which belonged to Shantou. As a result, due to heavy rain, it had to stay on Nanao Island for a day and only entered the waters of Xiangshan County today.

When they arrived here, they were not far from Guangzhou. Chen Jingdan and his group were anxious to get angry. At this time, their eyes were red and their mouths were fishy. Even people like Chen Jishan who practice martial arts all year round were exhausted and had no strength to speak.

At this time, the bow of the boat went down into the cabin and told Chen Jingdan and others. "Everyone, there are twenty miles ahead of you. This area is the territory of the Zheng family. At that time, I will go to the Tianhou Palace to burn incense. You can stay in the cabin. If anyone else gets on the boat later, don't make a sound and don't go to the deck. I'll deal with it."

"Oh, okay, I'm thankful." Although Chen Jingdan had been to Guangdong before, he had been on land, but he had also heard about pirates in the Pearl River Estuary.

After hearing this, Lu Shoushan and others agreed with a blank expression. As soon as the bow of the boat left, Lu Shoushan and several of their subordinates took out their respective revolvers and began to check. More than a dozen other good men also took out short knives from their luggage packages and put them in their arms.

In the corner, Chen Jishan's sister Chen Erya was holding a wooden barrel and retching constantly; Chen Xuan was stroking Chen Erya's back. She originally brought Chen Erya to take care of Chen Xuan, but who thought that since leaving Quanzhou, Chen Erya became more and more seasick, and she vomited so hard that she would go dark, but Chen Xuan took care of her all the way.

In later generations, the Liyumen Strait was the exit of the east coast of Victoria Harbor and belonged to Kowloon Kwun Tong. The waterway here is less than one kilometer wide and there are mountains on both sides. It has become a military important place outside the estuary of the Pearl River during the Tang and Song dynasties. It is said that carp will turn into Kowloon after leaping over this place.

Zheng Yi's grandfather Zheng Jian came here, and saw that the mountains were steep and easy to defend but difficult to attack, so he occupied the tea green in the north as a nest. However, since the Zheng family arrived, the tea green was called "Devil Mountain" by fishermen.

Tianhou Temple at the foot of the mountain is next to the Liyumen Strait, which is the outpost where the Zheng family guards the sea. On weekdays, the Zheng family subordinates are stationed here to monitor passing ships. All incoming ships must stop the ships ashore. The Zheng family will request water diversion fees in the name of incense.

Sure enough, when the lucky boat entered the entrance of Liyu Gate, a small boat came over, with two Red Flag Gang pirates sitting on it.

The bow of the boat runs from Quanzhou to Guangzhou several times a year, and is familiar with the people from the Hongqi Gang. At this time, the Fuchuan put away the sails and carefully docked according to the guidance of the boat.

The bow of the boat passed by the springboard, and just walked to the door of Tianhou Palace, bowed to several Red Flag Gang minions who came out of the temple, and smiled and said with apologies: "Master Li, you guys are here today. I'll go burn incense first and then chat later."

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! A strong man in the lead came over, tilted his head and looked at Fu Chuan, and said to the bow: "Old Hu, you came here today, and you can't get to Guangzhou even if you leave Li Yumen."

The bow of the boat called Lao Hu asked strangely: "Master Li, why is this?"

The strong man said, "Xiangshan Xie Navy Camp sent a patrol boat to block the waterway to Tanzai Island, saying that it would not be allowed to pass within three days."

Hu Chuantou hurriedly asked, "Oh, what's wrong with this? Are Western ghosts causing trouble?"

Another thin man with his arms crossed said, "It's not Western ghosts at all, so I dare not borrow them from them. More than ten days ago, a big ship came to Tanzai Island, causing a lot of trouble, and even our Red Flag Gang was brought in. Originally, there was no movement in the government, but who knew that the waterway was blocked yesterday and probably wanted to send troops to expel it. Who dares to talk to the officers and soldiers at this time? I advise you to wait on the boat for two days before leaving."

The strong man patted Hu Chuantou on the shoulder and sighed, "Our young master is also on that boat, damn! It's so troublesome now. Brother Chang is so anxious that he's in a hurry."

After Hu Chuantou sang incense at Tianhou Temple, he returned to the boat to get fifty taels of silver and paid the water diversion fee. Then he went to the cabin and explained the situation to Chen Jingdan and others. As a result, Chen Jingdan and the others almost jumped up when they heard this. They were really looking for something that the Thunder God was nearby!

"Old Hu, do a favor and send us to Tanzai Island. One thousand taels will be paid as soon as you see the ticket, and it will be yours."

Hu Chuantou said in surprise: "Master Shen, why is this?"

Chen Jingdan said, "To be honest, we are here this time to find the ship. Now that there is news, we have to go there right away!"

"This... I really don't dare!" It would be strange if Hu Chuantou was not moved by a thousand taels of silver, but he really didn't dare.

"Two thousand taels!" Chen Jingdan reached into his arms, took out another kraft paper bag, and slapped it on the table.

There were piles of silver notes placed on the table. Hu Chuantou hesitated and thought for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's okay to leave, but you have to withdraw from here. Let's go south, from Dangan Island, Zhujiazhou, and Che'ao, and then head north to Cross Gate. Mr. Shen, I'll leave after I'll really get the lawsuit."

When Chen Jingdan and others heard that they could leave, they were all overjoyed and bowed to Hu Chuantou to thank him.

So Hu Chuantou hurried back to the deck and ordered the sailor to raise the sails and raise the anchor. When the Zheng family guarding the Tianhou Temple saw Lao Hu leaving, they quickly asked. Lao Hu stood at the bow of the boat, just saying that he would return to Nanao to wait, without giving any other explanation. The Zheng family was also following the rules and said that you would come back in a few days and not charge the water diversion fee.

At this time, Zhao Xin and the others knew nothing about the arrangement of the Qing army. Apart from being on duty in the cabin, the group either sat on the deck to blow the air or stayed in the cabin, waiting boredly for the news of Chen Jingdan and the others. During this period, Zhao Xin and Zheng Yi and others also talked about the matter on the sea surface of the Pearl River and learned more about the situation in this era.
