The second large boat drew an arc in the distance, enclosing the other four boats.
Several boats were forced close together. They watched with fear as another large white sailboat sailed in the distance at an alarming speed. Surround them in a circle.
At this time, everyone understood that at this speed, they could not run away. As long as the cannon is fired, their small boats will be torn into pieces in an instant.
"Stop the boat and lower the sails!" Mao Da said decisively.
"Uncle, these people obviously have bad intentions. Things on the ship must not be exposed to light." Mao Zhong said hurriedly.
"What else can I do? My father has been fighting for half his life. I only have a little flesh and blood like this. How can I die with them?" Mao Da said.
Moreover, even if they tried desperately, there was no chance. They had never seen such a large-caliber artillery, and the gun body was so slender. At first glance, it looks like a heavy cannon with a very long range.
These cannons have been carefully polished and are extremely well made. The patterns and inscriptions on them can even be seen under the sunlight.
The oppressive feeling of the big ships and cannons made these servants of the Mao family breathless.
All of them held matchlocks in their hands and their legs were shaking.
Yang Fan's big ship came over. There was a rope net made of ropes in the middle of the ship. It is easy to climb up and down from above. A group of Marines disembarked from the ship and jumped onto the deck.
A man who looked like an officer from a hundred households took out a badge from his waist and raised it forward.
"The Jinyi Guards are in charge. Everyone puts down their weapons, holds their heads in their hands, and squats on the ground. Anyone who resists will be punished on the spot."
"Who are you, you dare to act wild in front of our army?" Mao was so big that he clasped his hands behind his back and said proudly.
The people coming down the opposite side were all wearing strange clothes. They were navy uniforms customized after German military uniforms. But when I came down to do my wedding, I temporarily put on a brocade sweatshirt outside. Yang Fan's people collectively joined the Jinyiwei back then, and many of them had robes and waistbands.
Later, although they all withdrew from the Jinyiwei system, their military status was still that of Jinyiwei. Once Ming Dynasty became a military household, it could not be canceled. Therefore, their Jinyiwei clothing, waist badges, and even military status will not be taken back. It's just that he no longer holds a specific position.
Strictly speaking, these people are still Jin Yiwei, and Yang Fan is still the nominal second-in-command of Jin Yiwei. Even if it is a decoration, it is the most advanced decoration in Jin Yiwei. It's very easy to use if you want to cause trouble for officials.
Mao Chenglu was known as Mao Da among Mao Wenlong's many adopted sons, which shows his usual arrogance. He saw that the person opposite him was just a member of the Imperial Guards, while he was the deputy chief soldier. Immediately, the official authority was shaken.
After hearing what he said, the Baihu official sneered and looked at him up and down with squinting eyes. Then he cupped his hands and said in a nonchalant manner: "The lower official Jin Yiwei belongs to the Hundred Households category. I don't know how to call this superior official."
Mao Jin immediately rushed out and shouted loudly: "Hey! You are a small official, like a dog, but you dare to act wild in front of my eldest son. I want you to understand clearly, my eldest son is the governor of the Zuo Army Governor's Mansion. , the son of Mao Gong Wenlong, the commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town. He is the deputy commander-in-chief of Dongjiang Town, the inner Ding staff general, and his famous name is Mao Chenglu.”….
Shanchou smiled and said: "You are so arrogant, I thought you were Marshal Mao himself. It turns out that you are just the son of Marshal Mao."
The general soldier is an official under the recruitment system and has no rank or rank. The generals were the high-ranking military attachés of the Ming Dynasty.
After Shanchou finished speaking, he straightened his face, grabbed Mao Jin's chest, spread his arms and shot left and right, giving him a big mouthful. Mao Jin's eyes flashed with stars and he fell to the deck. He spat out a tooth with a slurp.
"If Marshal Mao himself is the governor of the left, he can naturally call himself a military sect. You are an adopted son of the Mao family, and you are actually a domestic slave. Marshal Mao rewards you as a commander-in-chief or a deputy. What qualifications do you have to call yourself a military sect? You are overstepping your bounds by calling yourself Zhentai. Write it down, Mao Chenglu became more powerful and called himself Junmen."
"No!" A general manager behind him immediately took out a small notebook, took out a brush, licked it in his mouth, and began to record how so and so happened on a certain day of a certain year, a certain month, and a certain day. Who are the people present?
In the Ming Dynasty, military gates were called governors and inspectors.
Fu (the same level as the governor in the Ming Dynasty). If the level is not high enough, it cannot be called a "military sect". It makes no sense that the general soldier can be called the military gate. The general soldier can only be called "zhentai". Even in the Qing Dynasty, the commander-in-chief had to hold the title of admiral of military affairs before he could call himself a military sect.
But at the end of the Ming Dynasty, civil strife had already begun to flourish, and many rules were no longer strictly observed. There was no way to stop subordinates from calling them privately, just like we can't restrict others from calling a certain deputy manager "manager" at the wine table.
Mao Chenglu's deputy commander-in-chief of the Left Association was actually in name only, and his actual position was that of a staff general, responsible for commanding Mao Wenlong's third battalion servants. It is indeed too arrogant for a serving general to claim to be a military sect. He originally wanted to scare Jin Yiwei, but he didn't accept this trick at all.
But Jin Yiwei used this to make trouble, and no one could say anything. Report him to the police and ask him about the crime of transgression, and he may lose his head.
Of course, Chongzhen still had to use Mao Wenlong to contain Yuandudu at this time, so naturally he would not really deal with Mao Chenglu, but a punishment was inevitable.
Seeing Mao Jin being beaten, the servants in Dongjiang Town were used to being arrogant. They immediately drew their swords and raised their guns. The aggressive one is about to come up. The people on the other boats immediately started making noises.
Yang Fan just watched the show with a smile and did not speak. Mingyan looked at Yang Fan, waved her hand and said, "Open fire with the machine cannon and break their mast."
At this time, the two heavy Gatling cannons at the bow and stern of the big ship opened fire.
The dense bullets rushed out like a fire dragon under the rotating barrel, and the line of fire hit the main mast, directly breaking the main mast of the ship.
For a moment, sawdust flew into the air, falling all over everyone's heads and faces, which was very scary.
Seeing the basin-thick mainmast being hollowed out and broken by the flames of the machine cannon, it fell into the water with a bang, and there was a scream on the ship.
Several bullets penetrated the deck and entered the cabin. Wen held her son in her arms and was so frightened by the stray bullet that her face turned pale and her whole body trembled. In the sunlight that leaked in through the bullet holes, the dust in the cabin danced in the beam of light.
Seeing such a terrifying firearm made Wen's legs weak and he sat down on the ground.
Shan Chang took a step forward, frightening everyone in the Mao family to retreat.
"Mao Da, I know you. I advise you to think clearly and not to resist the inspection of the Jin Yiwei. The emperor's personal army is not your Dongjiang Town camp. We have overthrown Duke Wei. Who do you think you are?" Do you dare to draw your sword in front of Jin Yiwei and want to kill the nine tribes?" Fanchou yelled.
Suddenly, the Mao family's servants turned pale with fear.
Mao Chenglu's expression changed, and in the end he did not dare to act recklessly. He waved his hand helplessly. Everyone threw their swords and guns on the ground.
Fanchou waved his hand and said, "Search and see what's on the ship."
