Chapter 128 Ships Coming from Sea(2/2)
Magistrate Fang sighed, apparently worried about the future of his colleagues.
Fang Ruolan also sighed, the current situation is like this, the current emperor is arbitrary, and he will fight against ministers if he disagrees with him. Being demoted from the capital is already a good result for Yan Guan.
Fang Ruolan asked again:
"Then where was this uncle Zhang Shishu relegated to?"
The magistrate Fang said angrily: "It is unreasonable for the Ministry of Civil Affairs to arrange for Zhang Sijing to be promoted to Yanping Prefecture!"
Now Fang Ruolan finally understood what her father was angry about.
Zhang Sijing would be demoted as a "Ji Bian miscellaneous official", so the Ministry of Civil Affairs arranged for him to come to Yanping Mansion as a promotion official. Doesn't this mean that Yanping Mansion is the so-called Ji Bian place in the eyes of the officials of the Ministry of Civil Affairs?
The top four officials of Yanping Prefecture are Jibian miscellaneous officials, so what is the prefect of Fang Prefecture?
The leader of the extreme side jobs?
The prefect felt that he had been greatly insulted, so he became sulky.
The more the magistrate thought about it, the more he broke his guard. He said angrily: "These officials of the Ministry of official affairs! Do they know what it means to be a minor official?"
Fang Ruolan thought for a while, now that the Japanese rebellion is serious in Fujian, Yanping Prefecture is not as big as Fuzhou Prefecture and Quanzhou Prefecture. Isn't it just a side job?
Fang Ruolan thought for a while and said: "Dad, when Mr. Xu Ge was demoted to Yanping Mansion as a promotion official, isn't he now promoted to the position of Second Assistant to the Cabinet? Perhaps Mr. Xu Ge took pity on this Zhang Geizhong, so he greeted him
Did the officials arrange for him to be sent to Yanping Mansion?"
When his daughter said this, the prefect felt much better!
Yes, Xu Jie offended his chief assistant Zhang Cong and was demoted to Yanping Prefecture.
Jibian miscellaneous job! Jibian miscellaneous job also served as the second assistant of the cabinet!
I, the magistrate of Yanping Prefecture! I am the superior of Yanping Prefecture’s recommended officials!
The prefect finally gained a spiritual victory and his mood improved.
Fang Ruolan sighed, now that the Japanese are in trouble in the southeast, the court is still arguing over the establishment of a reserve, and various Qing army censors are still searching for military guards, can the Ming court still be in good health?
At the same time, in Changning Weizhong, it was the night of July 10th.
Su Ze suddenly heard the ringing of bells, which were the bells of Changning Guard summoning the soldiers.
Su Ze quickly put on his clothes, picked up the gun under the bed and jumped down.
Rushing out of the room, I only saw torches lit in the Baihu Station. Sure enough, it was the Wei Station summoning the soldiers!
Could it be that the Japanese pirates are coming!
Su Ze also became nervous. He immediately put on his clothes, took the gun and ran quickly to the Baihu Office.
In the dark of night, the guardsmen of Changning gathered at the Baihu Station. When they arrived at the Baihu Station, Su Ze saw the panicked little carrot head Lin Liangjun.
Su Ze grabbed him and asked:
"Where's Baihu?"
When Lin Liangjun saw Su Ze, he calmed down a little. He said, "My brother went to the dock! A ship is coming from the sea!"
Su Ze's heart skipped a beat. It was now a forbidden sea period. Apart from the ships at the guard station, there were no other ships on the sea.
And the warships from other guard posts will not approach Changning Guard at night.
To make the guard station so nervous, there must be a ship from an unknown force.
Is it the deer king calling?
Su Ze quickly calmed down and said to Lin Liangjun:
"You stay at Baihu Station and guide the gathered soldiers to the dock!"
After saying this, Su Ze took the gun and went to the guard shipyard according to his memory.
The dock was already brightly lit, and Su Ze quickly found Lin Mojun who was directing the boarding.
Su Ze quickly stepped forward and asked:
"Hundred households! Is there a thief coming?"
Lin Mojun nodded and shook his head: "The patrol officer discovered that a large ship of unknown origin came to the sea. The guard station turned on the lights but there was no response. I don't know if it ran aground or something."
Su Ze looked at the sea, but couldn't see anything in the dim night.
He said to Lin Mojun: "I will go with you too!"
Lin Mojun thought for a while, but agreed, and said in a serious tone:
"I want to operate the ship, and the cannon team will be left to you to command."
Su Ze nodded heavily and quickly boarded the guard's blessing ship.
The soldiers were quickly assembled, and the newly trained musketry team also boarded the lucky ship.
Su Ze asked the gun team to check and clean the gun while looking at the sea, looking for the mysterious ship.
Lin Mojun's boating skills were very good, and he soon discovered the mysterious ship surrounded by the night.
"Light the lights! Light the message lights!"
During the Yongle period, the Ming Dynasty was able to organize Zheng He's fleet to sail to the Southeast Asia. The signal lights between warships were also invented at that time, which were used to transmit messages between ships at night.
However, the ship on the opposite side did not respond to the agreed signal, but instead flashed lights randomly. Lin Mojun's face became even more serious now.
"This is not my Ming Dynasty's ship, prepare to fight!"
Lin Mojun gave the order, and the atmosphere on the ship was so tense that it almost solidified.
The lucky ship gradually approached, but the mysterious ship still didn't move at all. Could it be that it had run aground?
Su Ze gradually saw the appearance of this ship clearly. It was not a traditional Ming Dynasty ship, but it didn't look like a Japanese ship either.
This is a huge wooden sailing ship. The hull is similar to a Chinese-style Guangzhou ship, but the three masts and the jib on the top of the mast are all in the style of a Western sailing ship.
Wait, this is the Manila Galleon!
