Chapter 1011

The two ships that lowered their sails after being warned to shoot were merchant ships of the Huan family.

"We met those two ships before we came, but one of them sank and the other was heading this way." Huan song continued to Huang Yi, who was in charge of the ship, "as soon as the gun rang here, the ship turned around and left."

Of the seven ships that came, six were caught up and sunk by the Xingyang, and only one gave up chasing after nightfall.

The sea is vast. At night, if there is no light on the ship, it is the day of the full moon. It takes enough time and luck to find a ship on the vast sea.

Although it was unwilling, it was a waste of time to continue to look for it. Liang min ordered to sail to the Nandu escort.

After the two merchant ships of the Huan family lowered their sails, they were taken over by the small boat put down earlier by the "Xingyang" and joined the "Xingyang" to form a formation.

Their position had deviated from the prosperous route. After re entering the route, because it was night, unless the hostile enemy ship had long-range high lethal weapons, it was impossible to engage in the side battle until the "Xingyang" released Huan's two merchant ships, and there was no accident on the return route.

There are three large ports in Annan's Protectorate. The military port is where the Han army landed at the beginning, and the other two are civilian ports.

It was another day. "Xingyang" was close to the military port and saw the rising black smoke in the land camp of the military port from a distance.

"The military port has also been attacked?" Liang min saw from the telescope that there were several buildings in ruins smoking: "it seems to be a warehouse?"

Like Chen Tan, he was watching with a telescope: "look at the position, it's in the warehouse where the fire oil is placed."

As it was a storehouse for burning oil, the buildings were not connected, and there was enough distance from the camp. After they burned, it seemed that there was an explosion, the surrounding trees were obviously swept away, and large pits could be seen at the same time.

Then, the fire oil burning will be a kind of black smoke column, and the simple wood burning will be a gray smoke column, which is easy to identify.

"We were confident and didn't expect an attack at sea." Xiao Xin sighed and said, "they are estimated to be like us. They don't believe that someone dares to sneak attack."

The warehouse, which should have been closely guarded and guarded, was successfully attacked, so it can only show that there is more than one omission.

The "Xingyang" communicated with the military port in flag language, and a pilot ship was sent to guide it into the berth.

It can be seen that there are many ships berthing in the port, each of which has entered the operational alert state, but the other gunship "Yecheng" of Annan's escort is not in the port.

Liang min got off the ship and went directly to the shogunate of the capital guard. What he saw along the way was a busy scene. Soldiers were carrying out various investigations, and there were at least three times more sentries than usual.

"Zhihao is back?" Yang Rui took the lead in greeting and said, "last night, the military port was attacked and three warehouses were burned down."

"I saw it all the way." Liang Minshu said about the encounter of the Xingyang at sea. Later, he asked, "how many enemy troops are coming?"

"More than 1500 people." Yang Rui's face was gloomy to the extreme: "first, there was riots in the commercial port, followed by slave suicide arson."

The other two civil ports of the Annan protectorate are commercial ports. There are Han people from the mainland, and there are more businessmen from various countries.

Because the cost of crossing Malacca was too high, businessmen from various countries chose to stay when they arrived at the Annan protectorate, which brought prosperity to the two newly established civil ports and made them the most prosperous commercial area in the whole Indochina Peninsula in a very short time.

At ordinary times, the number of foreigners staying in two places will not be less than 10000, and even exceed 50000 at most. They sell their own goods here. At the same time, they will eat a large number of goods from the Han Empire and do some reselling trade.

Liang min had to wonder that he didn't see smoke in the two commercial ports when he was at sea.

"The fire was put out in time." Yang Rui and Liang min walked side by side. As they walked, they said, "although there are many foreigners in the port, not all of them joined the riots. We also have many people. We all carry escorts when running business, and the response of the garrison is also timely."

So is it that the riots in the two commercial ports involved the attention of Annan's protectors. During the chaos, slaves serving the garrison found an opportunity to attack the warehouse storing fire oil?

As they walked, they said that after entering the shogunate, someone informed them. Soon Liang min was received by Si Hongzhuang.

"The main force of the attack camp is the Persians." Si Hongzhuang looked very calm. After raising his mouth, he asked, "were you attacked at sea?"

Liang min carefully explained what had happened and said later, "most of the people who attacked us were Arabs except the Han people who were bribed. After torture, the main conspirators were Daqin and Persians."

After berthing in Hong Kong, the "Xingyang" has taken the prisoners off the ship. There are 12 Han criminals and seven foreigners. They will be handed over to the Garrison for interrogation again.

"The Yecheng has left Hong Kong for six days." Si Hongzhuang thought that there would be two when there was one. He said with worry: "if his ship was found dead at sea, he must go to rescue. They..."

There are only two gunships in the Annan palace. Unless necessary maintenance is carried out, they are patrolling back and forth through the route. Of course, the purpose is to frighten the countries in the world.

Si Hongzhuang did not hide his hatred: "what did the Han people say after the interrogation?"

Han people have just experienced the years of being ruled by other nationalities. They know what is misery and life is better than death.

Again, the government has repeatedly publicized and stressed that the main theme is to work together with the same family to create a better future.

The problem is that there is no perfection in the world. How can there be less scum in an ethnic group? There are always so many people living just waiting for the day when they become scum.

In recent years, the Han Empire has been emphasizing the economy. Once the pursuit of wealth reaches a certain level, the price is not enough. Once the price is enough, the phenomenon that even parents can sell will inevitably rise, and the probability of increasing scum will certainly increase greatly.

Before, Liu Yan had realized that it was not advisable to blindly pursue economic benefits. He had a plan for moral education, that is, sometimes a "door" was opened, and it was not generally difficult to close it again.

"Originally, they were a group of outlaws who ran all over the mountains and forests to catch slaves. They went to the Persians for fun..." Liang min slowly introduced what she knew: "The guy named Qin GUI is a retired senior officer in the army. He has titles and assets. Only when he loses all his gambling can he catch slaves. His gambling habit has not changed. He owes huge gambling debts not only in Persia, but also in China. The Persians bid 10000 gold coins for him, and his team bid 50000 gold coins, which adds up to 60000 gold coins."

"Wealth moves people!" Si Hongzhuang didn't talk about gambling. The Han Empire itself couldn't help gambling. He shook his head and said stiffly, "unexpectedly, the rest of the people would follow."

Now it's a very happy thing to be a Han. If you have a title, you'll be happier.

As the most ordinary Han people, they don't have obvious feelings at home, but once they go abroad, they will find that even if they are ordinary people in the Han Empire, they will inevitably become human masters abroad. It is that foreign dignitaries dare not offend at all. Ordinary foreigners need to be treated carefully and please, and give "high national" treatment.

People who enjoy the benefits of a strong country, have a little conscience... Or have a little brain, it's too late to protect the country. Only when they are crazy to a certain extent will they be bought by foreigners to deal with their own country?

"Everyone can get at least two thousand gold coins." Liang Min 'ha ha' smiled a few times and said with an understandable but deeply resentful expression, "they are lucky to catch slaves. They can earn up to 50 gold coins a year, and 2000 are the wealth they may not be able to earn in most of their lives."

Si Hongzhuang has been writing official documents to the effect that he reported the attack and losses to China. After he wrote one, he raised his pen again to write another, and then asked Liang min to write down the names and native places of the Han people on the official document.

"Enjoy welfare but eat inside out, and even participate in the attack." Si Hongzhuang shook his head and said, "it's inevitable to be regarded as a model. Before they do it, they don't think about their relatives."

However, the Han Empire did not abolish the law of Zhulian. Those Han people who participated in the attack will not only die themselves, but their blood relatives will at least end up in labor. Those who did not die will feel uncomfortable living. They must live under the strange eyes of others all their life. In the future, they don't want to find any job, even if their children want to be educated.

On the other hand, Qin GUI retired from the military and had a title, but he had no guarantor to be involved. If there is a guarantor, he will be retired and fined in service. If he is also discharged from the army, the penalty procedure is indispensable.

"You work harder." While writing his third official document, Si Hongzhuang waved his pen and said, "form a fleet, including the Xingyang and 120 other ships. Leave Hong Kong today and go to ketak."

Ketak is the largest port on the other side of the A3 continent, which belongs to the jurisdiction of the Tianzhu protectorate.

It is conceivable that the situation of tianzhudu protectorate as far away as the A3 continent will be more serious.

Liang Minying "promise!" After that, he asked, "will Yecheng arrive in the back?"

Si Hongzhuang shook his head: "I don't know when the 'Yecheng' will return to Hong Kong. After you go there, you will be temporarily incorporated into the Tianzhu capital guard system. Unless I have a new order, I'll listen to the command of QianDu guard."

Liang min doesn't know that it's normal for Si Hongzhuang to act like this. First, there are no gunships in the navy of the Tianzhu capital guard, and second, the current situation there is very special.

When the emperor visited Kuaiji (Hangzhou Bay), several princes and dozens of high barons went out of the sea by boat. About a month ago, they passed through the Annan protectorate and also visited the port. They are now in mainland A3.

In the Han Empire, as long as it was a marquis, everyone was a senior official.

How many marques are there in the Han Empire at present? Even if Liu Yan had a big release after he became emperor, there were still no more than 30 princes in the whole Han Empire. If they had an accident, it can be said that the whole Han Empire would be shocked.

If Si Hongzhuang hadn't mentioned it, Liang minzhen didn't know that three princes had gone to the Tianzhu Prefecture.

"The Hussars general is there, too?" Liang min couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of water: "in addition to three princes, there are 26 high barons? This is really..."

Si Hongzhuang knows why Liang min shows such an expression. He has similar ideas.

It is possible to worry about whether there will be accidents for ran min's group. It is more sad for those who choose to make trouble at this time.

As an Hussars general, ran min did not go to the third continent on official business. Without relevant official documents and necessary tiger symbols, he naturally took over the army of the third continent from formal procedures.

It's the same thing in legal theory, but if ran min doesn't care, he doesn't need to go through such a procedure in legal theory at all. He just needs to convince Du Baoqian Jiantong, the protector of Tianzhu, not even to take over, so that the army of the three continents can act according to their own ideas in the way of demand (coercion).

"It's really something that the Hussars general can do." Liang min smiled bitterly and had no choice but to ask: "what if the end will

Si Hongzhuang stared: "do you follow Qian Duhu's command? Can you think of anything else?"

Liang min is more or less relieved. Compared with ran min, he is a small man. Ran min, who has always been confident and fearless, can act recklessly. Even Qian Jiantong, who is the protector, can choose by himself according to the situation. His small body can't afford to experience such a thing.

After necessary replenishment, the "Xingyang" took the lead in leaving the port, and the port continued to handle all types of ships and assembled into a formation of 126.

The big move of the military port can't hide from others, that is, what the fleet wants to do has nothing to do with most people, especially for the foreigners who are concentrated in custody, they can't do anything even if they want to do something.

"Du Hu." Yang Rui saluted after entering the house. Hui reported: "all the 606 murderers involved in the attack have been killed except the main culprit."

Si Hongzhuang nodded and waited for the following.

"At the two ports, the total number of foreigners counted is 42009, and all of them have been detained." Yang Rui had an expression on his face. Seeing Si Hongzhuang's expressionless face, he slowly became expressionless: "they have been clamoring and protesting, asking us to give a statement."

Last night, a considerable number of foreigners chose to help the Han people. They participated in the suppression of the attackers, but were detained by the garrison. Foreigners who feel that they have made meritorious contributions do not understand why they should be imprisoned. They think that the Han people are avenging the hand that feeds them.

"Statement?" Si Hongzhuang was still the dead man's face: "big man, when do you need to give an explanation to the alien?"
