Chapter 208 Smuggling
Ma Cheng stood at the bow of the ship with a gloomy face, and the first Zhejiang soldiers sentry officer said softly: "Sir, this is a second-class blessing ship in Liangjiang Navy. It is based in Songjiang County. It is known that this ship should be a defense preparation during the Jiajing period.
The Japanese pirates, my grandfather Qi, was ordered to supervise the construction. He was extremely powerful, and even the cannons on the ship were made by my commander."
Ma Cheng looked at the black muzzle on the second-class blessing ship and said coldly: "How powerful is the force."
The whistleman was born as a navy master, and said, "Adults will tell at a glance that there are two red barbarian cannons on the bow. These red barbarian cannons are three thousand kilograms of large flaming machines, one thousand kilograms of flaming machines and one thousand kilograms of flaming machines, and the bowls are
There are ten guns, more than a hundred jet drums, twenty thunder cannons, twenty Lumi guns, ten gunpowder crossbows, and several fire bricks, which are actually powerful weapons for naval battles."
Looking at the sails rising from the blessing ship, Ma Cheng pulled out his battle knife and threw it over. The curled sword fell into the sea, and even a small splash did not splash. Two large and small warships guided by the blessing ships in the distance
More than fifty people were still sailing slowly, as if mocking his insignificance. The soldiers from Kaiyuan on both sides also calmed down and looked at the head of his town and were speechless.
Ma Chengtou felt that his IQ was insulted, and Senran said: "Didn't it mean that the navy warships all went to Fujian to fight the Red-haired people in a decisive battle?"
The personal soldiers and soldiers on both sides were speechless. After a long time, they pulled out their curled blades, and the broken swords still entered the sea. The morale was depressed and the excitement of escaping from the sky was gone.
Ding Wenchao gritted his teeth and cursed: "Young Master, we have been killed in bloody battles with Jiannu and are everywhere, and we are chased like dogs. We are busy going out to sea to do business."
Ma Cheng's bloody teeth were grinding his snow-white teeth, staring at the more than fifty warships in size and size for a few more glances, then turned back to the cabin, his face still turned pale, and he wanted to choose someone to eat. Good guy, three thousand
I have never heard of the Ming Dynasty and such sharp firearms after graduating from my military academy.
What I know about the Lumi gun was invented by Zhao Shizhen during the Wanli period. It has a long range, great power and is extremely sharp. As I saw it with my own eyes and heard with my own ears, I realized that the legendary advanced firearms of the Ming Dynasty really existed.
, but it is not used to defend the border and attack Jiannu, but to escort smuggling.
The imperial court had no money to build these sharp firearms, and wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan had them. They not only built advanced firearms but also installed them on the ship. This was blatant armed smuggling, and they made a fortune from time to time, facing Donglin.
The Party is still clamoring for exemption of commercial taxes and the suspension of mining taxes. The Ming Dynasty has established itself for more than 240 years. It is hard to imagine how much wealth Jiangnan has accumulated. Compared with the wealthy businessmen in Jiangnan, the emperor and the court are really beggars.
It's even more hateful that Zhenjiang has a bloody battle. There are no soldiers and ships coming to support the two rivers. It turns out that they are busy smuggling. Ma Cheng kicked the table in front of him, and his eyes were full of evil light. No wonder the Qing Dynasty went to Jiangnan to kill and massacre the city at every turn. Such a huge and amazing wealth
How to endure the greedy Qing Beilemen naturally had to kill and rob. They found out more and more that the people of Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty were already crazy because of their wealth and wealth, and they were crazy about dying with the Ming Dynasty.
After a long time, the door opened. The two ladies of Li led two Korean maids in and bent down to pack up the overturned porcelain on the ground. They did not dare to look up at Ma Cheng's gloomy and ferocious face. The younger Mrs. Li was the one.
He accidentally cut his hand, and the red blood stains on his slender jade hands gradually made Ma Cheng wake up.
Although Ma Cheng was awake, he frowned and said, "Why are you not careful?"
The four girls were so scared that they were trembling. The younger Mrs. Li was brave enough to kneel down and advised: "The Lord of the General Town is the commander of the three armies. I am brave enough to please be relieved."
Ma Cheng was alert in his heart that this irrational attack would greatly damage morale. The woman said very much, sat heavily on the mat to calm her mood.
The young Mrs. Li was only about twenty people and said softly: "Your Madam wants to play chess, so you can calm your mind."
Ma Cheng stopped and nodded, "Accurate."
The four women breathed a sigh of relief, packed the ground and went to find Go, and placed it on the table. Ma Cheng and Mrs. Lee played chess, and two noble Korean girls served.
A son fell down, and Ma Chengfang said in a deep voice: "What's your name?"
It was extremely rude to ask the woman’s name, but Mrs. Li was happy: “My nickname is Xiaonu, thank you for your mercy.”
Ma Cheng couldn't help laughing when she saw her pretty face surprised. Everyone was adults and they all understood what she thought and thoughts in her heart. They just rely on their young beauty to cling to a general town, and let two women and eight children.
She could survive. Two delicate women could not do their jobs and could raise eight boys without sacrificing their appearance. Seeing her shy and timid expression, she bullied her here, she thought she would not refuse.
But Ma Cheng felt soft and comforted, "You don't have to do this, just play chess."
The little slave was shy and timid, and Ma Cheng's chess skills were not bad. When he was a child, he learned from his neighbor, Mr. Wang for a few years and had also played a few chess scores. He was unable to make a move before he reached the middle game and went to the chessboard.
Seeing a big dragon being pinched and killed by someone, this delicate female chess style is very fierce and has been practiced.
Ma Cheng abandoned his son and said laughing and crying: "You are a weak woman, why is your intention to kill so much? It's not a decent!"
The little slave was not afraid of him, so he just covered his mouth and smiled: "Sir, I'm restless, come again."
Ma Cheng's anger gradually faded, and he was about to float on the sea for a few days, so he simply cheered up his spirits and set up the chessboard, intending to teach her a lesson and kill her back. However, he didn't expect that after a while, he was defeated when he reached the middle plate. He was so angry that he pushed the chessboard.
If you can't play, can't everyone in the Ming Dynasty be a Go master? Any little woman who jumped out was so sharp. When she felt moved, she would be very close to Liu Zihua.
After thinking for a while, Ma Cheng smiled and said, "I have a friend who lives in the Imperial College Street in the capital. Your sister can take my letters to the capital to find her and take care of you."
The little slave turned over and threw himself down and said in panic: "My sister is only willing to serve the adults, and she has no other intentions."
Ma Cheng said laughing and crying: "My friend, uh, is also a woman, or a strange woman."
The little slave raised his head blankly, turned his big eyes around and burst into tears and smiled: "If you don't give it to someone as a slave or a concubine, then that's what you want. I don't know who is your friend, oh."
Ma Cheng looked at her curious eyes and coughed dryly. He felt a little guilty, but he was also happy. She must have found more than a dozen companions for her, so she must be very happy.
The older Mrs. Li knelt down and said resolutely: "Mr. Xie takes it in. If you give me any instructions in the future, my sister will accept it even if she dies."
Ma Cheng did take advantage of their ideas, so he had to vaguely say: "You don't have to die, you just have to suffer some grievances."
The two women looked at each other and knelt on the ground together, firmly saying: "The young woman died without regrets."
