Chapter 193: Confiscating the House and Arresting the Person

"What is that...?!"

Lin Chen could see dozens of salt bandits dressed in strange clothes on the Gao family ship by the light of the fire.

The samurai swords waving in their hands were very familiar to him.

"Japanese pirates?"

Lin Chen narrowed his eyes as these two words flashed through his mind.

The coastal areas of Li Tang were also harassed by Japanese pirates like the Ming Dynasty.

In this mixed world, it is normal for private salt dealers to recruit Japanese pirates as thugs.

Look at those dozens of Japanese pirates, they are really fierce.

Although the samurai swords in their hands are not suitable for use in battle formations, they are good at fighting alone.

A dozen navy soldiers wearing leather armor have been beheaded, and the blood splashing up is all over the deck of the ship.

"Bring bows and arrows." Lin Chen said in the same tone when he saw this.

Hearing this, Lin Ruhai's confidant beside him brought a five-stone bow.

In the army, those who use three-stone bows are already considered healthy soldiers.

But for Lin Chen, this five-stone bow also feels light.

Pulling the bow is like a full moon, and a cold light flashes across.

Whoosh!

A Japanese pirate warrior who killed three navy soldiers was hit by a sudden arrow.

The terrifying force carried his body several meters away, and then nailed it to the edge of the boat.

The power of this arrow shocked the salt bandits!

Zhang Heng is a flatterer.

"General, you are a great archer!"

Lin Chen continued to pull the bow.

Although he was not very good at pulling the bow, he was not a great archer.

But the general principle of the Thirteen Silver Leaf Swords has the artistic conception of using all things as swords, which is nothing more than using arrows as swords.

Under Lin Chen's continuous targeted sniping, the morale of the salt bandits collapsed.

After all, although the salt bandits are brave, they are also a mob.

Just look at the big ship, and there are surrendered salt bandits kneeling and surrendering.

Only the head of the Gao family was escorted here in an extremely embarrassed manner and knelt in front of Lin Ruhai.

"How come you are fine?!"

The head of the Gao family looked at Lin Ruhai's thin but upright figure and was horrified.

"Do you really think you can hide this from me with your mean tricks?" Lin Ruhai sneered.

Lin Chen: "..."

After Lin Ruhai finished speaking, he thought of Lin Chen standing beside him and glanced at him subconsciously.

Lin Chen glanced away, pretending that he had heard nothing.

Seeing this, Lin Ruhai nodded with satisfaction and continued to put pressure on the head of the Gao family.

The matter in Yangzhou is very simple.

It's nothing more than a group of salt merchants who have tasted the sweetness of private salt and are dissatisfied with the high price of official salt, so they want to play tricks.

But there is a big mountain of Lin Ruhai on their heads. After failing to win him over, they just planned to use insidious means to kill Lin Ruhai.

The head of the Gao family was not a tough guy. He confessed everything before Lin Ruhai tortured him.

Lin Chen listened to the confession of the head of the Gao family and sighed slightly in his heart.

That's right, Lin Ruhai's first wife, Jia Min, was also killed by this gang in the same way.

Looking at Lin Ruhai's face, which was so angry that his hands were clenched and veins were bulging, you can know that he was in a restless mood.

"General Lin, please don't tell Yu'er about this." Lin Ruhai took a deep breath and asked Lin Chen.

Lin Chen nodded slightly and agreed.

Such insidious things are indeed not suitable to be told to Sister Lin.

Yangzhou City tonight must be uneasy.

"Wei Cheng! Yang Zhi!"

"I am here!"

"You two will lead 3,000 Bai Li guards to cooperate with Lin Yushi to search the house and arrest people."

"Yes!"

Search the house?

This kind of thing sounds quite exciting.

Yang Zhi and Wei Cheng looked at each other and laughed.

Seeing this, Lin Chen didn't say anything.

According to the military discipline he promulgated, I think these two people know the limits.

"Where is Ling Zhen?"

"I am here." Ling Zhen stepped out with a serious face.

"You lead the Shenji Camp to seal up the salt merchants' property."

"Yes."

As for the navy, the task is simpler.

That is, no ship can escape from the river from tonight to tomorrow!

Crash!

The army marched on the street.

Countless people were awakened from their sleep.

"What's wrong? What happened?!"

After the salt patrol office and the Yulin guards surrounded the house, the salt merchants just reacted.

The Liu family, the Chen family, and the Sun family were terrified, but they didn't know what was going on.

"Go and get the news!" The head of the Liu family said in shock and anger.

After getting the news, the head of the Liu family felt that he was fainted by his stupid teammates.

The Gao family ignored his instructions today.

What made him even more shocked was the news that Lin Ruhai was completely fine.

"Is this impossible?!"

"Has Lin Ruhai been pretending to be sick to lure them out?"

When the head of the Liu family thought of this possibility, a chill rose behind him.

"Head, what should we do?!"

The Liu family was in chaos.

What else can they do?

Just surrender?

That Lin Ruhai must have known about the poison he had cast on him. This is a blood feud!

The head of the Liu family didn't believe that the other party would let them go.

At this point.

Only one side will die!

His Liu family has recruited many people from the underworld, including some with strong martial arts skills.

As long as Lin Ruhai is killed, everything will turn around!

However.

Most of the warriors who were treated well by the Liu family were at the second or third rate level.

If they were to face the soldiers of the salt inspection office alone, they might be beaten and scattered.

But when they met the Bai Li soldiers who had been trained by the military cards.

This elite military force that once shone during the Three Kingdoms period has re-emerged in the Li Tang world.

I saw.

The Bai Li Guard soldiers, wearing black heavy armor and lined with two layers of leather armor, advanced with large door shields in their hands.

This heavy and steady momentum was like the teeth of a mountain, making people almost breathless.

"It's just a group of dog soldiers, just kill them!" A warrior from the Liu family shouted.

However.

This kind of rookie, as soon as he rushed into the Bai Li Guard formation, was chopped into minced meat by countless blades.

In front of such a long army formation, personal force can't play much role at all.

Seeing this scene, many warriors began to retreat.

"Escape is important!"

But they didn't expect.

The Shen Ji Camp led by Ling Zhen was staring at them.

Bang bang bang!

The flames shot out hundreds of lead bullets that covered the warriors who were performing Qinggong.

Just look at these warriors, they fell down like rag bags and fell to the ground.

If you are not at the first-class level, you will almost die in the face of the volley of muskets.

"What kind of magic is this?!" The warriors who barely avoided the lead bullets and survived were shocked.

Yang Zhi didn't have time to talk nonsense with them. He immediately rode his horse and killed three warriors with his gun.

Perhaps it was his fighting power and the hideous tattoo on his face that scared the other warriors to kneel down and beg for mercy.

The nickname of this green-faced beast was really right.

For a while.

The shouts of killing in Yangzhou City shook the sky.

Countless ordinary people hid in their homes and trembled.

Even the governor of Yangzhou and other officials of all sizes were alarmed.

"What's going on in the city?"

"Reporting to the Lord, Lord Lin sent a message saying that there are wealthy merchants in the city colluding with salt bandits, and he is leading people to clear them out."

...
