On the way, Liang En stuffed dozens of copper coins into each of the two government officials, and Liang En roughly found out what was going on.
It turned out that just last night, a three-masted galley suddenly broke into the Yangtze River estuary, and was chased by the Yangtze River Inspection Department. It finally escaped the pursuit and ended up near Fushan Town in the jurisdiction of Gusu Prefecture.
stranded.
After it ran aground, a group of natives, led by two men wearing chainmail and turbans, rushed off the ship and tried to attack the lighted Fushan Town not far away.
When this group of Semu people made this decision, they didn't know that Fushan Town, the core support point along the river in the north of Gusu Prefecture, had been completely fortressed, and had a regular army garrisoned by Fushan Senhu.
Even though many of Qianhusuo's troops were scattered across multiple islands and small towns, there were still three hundred troops in the town, and there was even a cavalry flag, with an armor coverage rate of 60%.
In addition, this army can also receive support from the town's yamen, hunters and fishermen. Under normal circumstances, it can even withstand an all-out attack by tens of thousands of Japanese pirates in a short period of time.
Therefore, they discovered this group of Semu bandits very early and made preparations in secret. They waited in secret until the opponent approached the city to launch an attack and launched a surprise attack.
Faced with a surprise attack by the regular army, the ragtag bandits were naturally no match for them. They were completely routed by the cavalry, and then completely wiped out by the infantry and militia behind them.
While the pirates were eliminated, another part of the army successfully occupied the empty ship and rescued more than 100 rowing slaves from above.
"You don't know that those lustful people actually dared to rob us Song fishermen as slaves at sea." At this point, Capt. Li showed a kind of anger from the bottom of his heart.
"There is no doubt that all these lust-eyed pirates will be cut in half, and the slaves on the ship will also be released. And we invite you here now because there are some strange lust-eyed people among the prisoners."
"Weird people with lustful eyes? Aren't they the same group as those pirates?" Liang En asked with some confusion?
"It's different. Those pirates are Persians among the Semu people. We can still find local interpreters who can speak Persian to help translate, but these prisoners are different."
Capt. Li shook his head and then introduced briefly.
"We examined their bodies and found that their bodies were much stronger than ordinary people. They also had some calluses on their hands and inner thighs, so everyone suspected that they were probably nobles among the Semu people."
Soon, Liang En followed the two detectives into the county government office. When he just passed through the gate, he clearly felt a strong repressive force in the county government office.
"Sure enough, sure enough, it makes sense why the government can control order in this world." Feeling a certain power that enveloped the entire yamen, Liang En finally solved a mystery in his heart.
"It turns out that the government in this world controls the power of luck and divine ways. No wonder it can still guarantee the rule of the entire country in this world with gods and ghosts."
He also finally understood the reason why he had successfully paid for naturalization after answering a few questions in front of the shrine of the Yamen God behind the county government office. It seems that he had obtained the approval of the gods without knowing it.
It's just that he didn't have any cultivation in the past, so he couldn't feel this. But now that he has cultivation, he can clearly feel the extraordinary power that suppresses everything in the county government.
Fortunately, Liang En was not considered an enemy, so this power was only fleeting on him.
Following the two detectives into the back hall, Liang En found that the county magistrate had left at this time. Only the old county magistrate in his 50s was still sitting on the chair on the side. Opposite him were three Gongbi.
To the white man standing there.
"Mr. Dong." Liang En stepped forward and bowed to the county magistrate.
"Master Liang, you are finally here." After seeing Liang En, Dong Xian Cheng showed a smile, and then pointed at the three white men with helpless expressions on their faces.
"We had previously asked Zhu Tongwei, the Taoist priest of the City God's Temple, to come over with an interpretation talisman, but because we have never seen such a person, the interpretation talisman in the City God's Temple here cannot be used."
"As for the soul-searching method for captured enemies, it's fine, but it's not polite to use it on innocent people, so after thinking about it for a long time, I can only call you here to try it."
"I will try my best." Liang En nodded, and then watched these white people try the foreign languages that they knew.
"Hello? bonjour? hallo——" Because he studied abroad, Liang En learned the greeting languages of many countries from many international students. Unfortunately, he did not get any response for each sentence.
"It shouldn't be. Judging from the previous information, the two worlds should be similar. How could it be-"
After changing seven or eight greetings in a row, Liang En began to murmur in his heart, but as he was thinking about it, he suddenly realized that he had made a huge mistake.
He ignored the changes in human language over hundreds of years, so there was a high probability that the three people in front of him would not be able to understand the language he spoke hundreds of years later.
As for writing, it goes without saying. Unlike Chinese writing, most of the writing in the West is Pinyin writing, so when the pronunciation is different, the spelling will naturally be different.
"This is trouble." Liang En wiped his face subconsciously, and then suddenly thought of a word.
"salve?"
After trying to say this Latin sentence that I learned in the professional class, the big guy standing in the middle with a scar on his eye suddenly lit up, and then Didi Gugu said a lot.
"What is this lustful man talking about?"
After watching the big man in front of Didi Gugu say a lot, Dong Xian Cheng immediately looked at Liang En and asked.
"Please wait a moment. I'm not very familiar with this language, so I need some time to recall what my school teacher taught me."
"Not familiar?"
"Yes, this is the language used by an ancient empire of the Western people, but this language has been abandoned for seven or eight hundred years. There should only be a small number of scholars, nobles and practitioners who understand this language now."
While explaining in a low voice, Liang En quickly connected to the bronze cauldron in his soul, and then issued the order.
“Strengthen my Latin skills!”
A drop of silver liquid disappeared, and then the little Latin knowledge in his mind quickly expanded. A large amount of knowledge quickly grew out of the original knowledge as seeds, and was absorbed by Liang En's sea of consciousness.
And when he opened his eyes again, he found that he could only understand a few words to what the middle-aged man said to him, but now he could understand it completely.
"——Your Excellency, I was sent by the Council of Elders of Florence as a messenger to the East to seek trading partners, but unfortunately I was captured by damned pirates on the way, and almost all of my followers were killed or injured. But my seal ring and credentials should still be there.
The article is on the boat. Please be sure to tell this Song official to verify my identity."
"Florence?" Thinking that it was probably 14xx, Liang En immediately asked subconsciously. "Are you representing the Presbyterian Church of Florence or the Medici family?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the man who claimed to be the messenger widened his eyes in surprise and opened his mouth slightly.
"God—God! You actually know and understand our city-state. This is simply amazing!"
