Lian Er almost rolled and crawled into the cabin, his tone of voice changed, with a faint cry: "Ahead, there is a boat blocking the waterway ahead!"
"What's there to be afraid of?"
Jia Cong walked over in annoyance, held on to the crumbling Chain Er, turned back to Xue Pan, who was full of excitement, and ordered: "Ask the guards on the boat behind to send eighty people over, Brother Lian Er and I will go to the front to see
look!"
Fortunately, he and Xue Pan were on the last official ship, otherwise Lian Er would not have been frightened to the point of peeing. When had he ever experienced such a terrifying scene?
After getting out of the hatch, some stupid thing stopped all three official ships, and pedals were set up on the sides of the ships, which made it easier for Jia Cong and Lian Er to quickly rush to the leading official ship.
"What's going on? Why did the boat stop?"
He was not polite, and casually pulled aside several officials who were trembling with fear, and approached the right minister of the Ministry of Punishment and asked.
I glanced around and saw two merchant ships crossing the middle of the canal, blocking the waterway for the three official ships.
A few miles behind the merchant ship that stopped sideways, several other merchant ships stopped. Apparently, the normal passing ships were unwilling to get involved in the incident.
Pulling back, in addition to the Xue family's big ship that was approaching quickly, there were also ships stopping far away, and they said it in a tacit understanding.
"You bastard, you dare to block the way of the official ship!"
The right minister of the Ministry of Justice's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said angrily: "I must impeach them and make them pay the price!"
The surrounding officials looked pale and echoed the same hatred.
It was not until the Xue family's thugs came to support that the atmosphere on the ship became a little better, and the officials were able to think about how to deal with the current situation.
"What are you still discussing? Just drive the boat and crash into it!"
Being ignored by the officials, Jia Cong was not angry and directly suggested: "In broad daylight, do the guys on the opposite side still dare to use force and want to rebel?"
Facing the surprised, surprised, disdainful and helpless looks of the officials of the investigation team, he said angrily: "What are you afraid of? The other party is just showing off, otherwise they would have come over to kill people and eliminate traces. If you don't believe it, you can retreat."
When I get to the boat behind me, I will stand on the bow and hit it directly!"
When the officials heard this, their faces were burning and they were very embarrassed, but it was impossible for them to follow Jia Cong and go crazy, so they could only compliment him, "He is worthy of being the descendant of Duke Rong Guo", and then quickly retreated to the city under the organization of the right minister of the Ministry of Justice.
The official ship behind was watching.
Damn, you are indeed a good comrade who "charges at the back and retreats at the front".
"Third, third brother, do you really want to run into me?"
Lian Er was sweating profusely, his hands and feet were weak, but he did not retreat with other officials, which was particularly rare.
"What are you afraid of? With the boss here and the Xue family's bodyguards, how can you defeat a bunch of gang members?"
Xue Pan was foolish and bold, and he was eager to try with a group of thugs. He had full confidence in his boss Jia Cong.
What else is there to say?
Jia Cong waved his hand and signaled Yang Fan, a sailor on the official ship, to paddle towards the joint of the merchant ship blocking the canal waterway.
In broad daylight, he shouldn't go too far. He can't let outsiders think that Guan Chuan is bullying others. That would be a big joke.
The sailors on the ship did not dare to disobey the order, and mustered up the courage to speed up the ship. With everyone looking in disbelief, they rushed towards the joint of the merchant ship parked sideways on the canal.
"Crazy, crazy, crazy, aren't these officials afraid of death?"
Seeing the leader's ship rushing towards the bow of the merchant ship he was on like a crazy bull, the speed was getting faster and faster. The helmsman of a branch of the Canal Cao Gang had a panicked expression on the planning and command of this road blocking operation.
I was at a loss and didn't know what to do.
As Jia Cong said, he did not dare to do anything to the official ship in broad daylight, otherwise it would be a blatant rebellion. Even the boss who secretly instructed him to do so would not dare to bear such responsibility.
"What should I do, boss?"
The gang members nearby were also shocked and hurriedly asked what to do next.
"How the hell do I know what to do?"
The boss also had a headache. Seeing that the official ship was about to rush over, his face changed violently. In the end, he still did not dare to take the risk and shouted urgently: "Give way, give way quickly!"
The younger brother, who had been prepared long ago, immediately took action. They were all old-timers. Under their control, the two merchant ships quickly separated from the center of the canal.
Wow…
The official ship that Jia Cong was on was not very fast, but it was also very aggressive and rushed through the gap between the two merchant ships. The Xue family guard standing on the side of the ship was not polite and cursed all kinds of things, and almost turned towards the merchant ship on the opposite side.
The sailor spat.
"You bastard, you bastard, how dare you look down on me like this!"
The helmsman of a certain branch of the Cao Gang on the merchant ship was so angry that he was gnashing his teeth with resentment on his face. He really had the crazy idea of killing people and silencing them in his heart.
The younger brothers around him were all angry and started clamoring to seek bad luck on the other party.
Unfortunately, before they could make any move, severe blows followed one after another.
Jia Cong, who was standing at the bow of the ship, had already ordered the Xue family's thugs to bring the aged wine for the officials to enjoy in the cabin. He picked up a bottle with one hand and threw it towards the merchant ship that was blocking the road and left in a panic.
Next, a scene that surprised everyone on the ship appeared. More than a dozen cans of old wine were accurately dropped on the two merchant ships that were separated in a panic. The cans were broken and the wine flew everywhere, making a large deck wet at once.
"Here comes the torch!"
With a loud shout, the Xue family thugs next to him hurriedly brought the newly lit torches, but Jia Cong threw them away.
Although the official ship that broke out of the blockade was almost a mile away from the merchant ships that separated in panic, the torch thrown by Jia Cong still accurately landed on the wine-scented decks of the two separated merchant ships.
I was still intoxicated by the aroma of wine, and I didn't understand how the guys on the official ship could do such puzzling behavior.
But when a dozen torches fell down, the old wine filled with the aroma of wine suddenly burst into flames, causing people to panic and scream.
Naturally, aged wine is not as good as alcohol, but it is almost in the category of strong alcohol. There is no problem in igniting a wet deck.
Soon, two unruly merchant ships were engulfed in raging fire, and the members on board jumped into the water to escape. Seeing that the neat figures were very good at water, there was no need to worry about their safety.
In the blink of an eye, the merchant ship blocking the road turned into a huge torch. The official ship following behind and preparing to rush out, as well as the members of the Xue family ship, were all dumbfounded.
"As expected, he is a descendant of Duke Rong, he is so fierce!"
The right minister of the Ministry of Justice stood on the bow of the ship, looking at the two burning merchant ships with a complex expression on his face. He couldn't help but sigh...
