Chapter 556
At noon the next day, Leizhou Pier was bustling.
The news of the annihilation of the Blue Flag Gang has been sent back first, and many officials have been waiting here early.
This time, not only did the officials from Haikang County arrive, but all the officials from Leizhou Prefecture Office also arrived, and there were also many gentry accompanying him, all looking at Leizhou Bay with eager eyes.
A pirate gang that had suffered for more than ten years in Leizhou actually disappeared, which made them feel unreal. Some even doubted the authenticity of this matter, suspected that Lin Qingran was lying to seek credit.
But their suspicion was quickly slapped in the face, because a huge fleet of ships sailed into the Leizhou Wharf that was on the way, hundreds of prisoners were taken down from the ship by Leizhou Guards, and there were many wanted criminals from the government here.
.
"Secretary of the Ministry and the Ministry of State, congratulations to the two of them for their triumphant return!"
When the two big men walked down from the boat, County Magistrate Wei and Judge Chen Tong led the officials from their respective yamen to respectfully come forward and performed a kneeling ceremony in a regular manner.
They respected Wang Jin, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, but they also admired their superior Lin Qinran.
The young master of the Mansion was silently built a dock in Leizhou Bay, but also wiped out all the pirates entrenched in Leizhou Bay, making the prospect of opening the sea a great deal.
Wang Jin had long been accustomed to this kind of etiquette. However, today's storms are a bit big, and he is an older person after all, but he is unwilling to talk more.
Lin Qingran is a smart person and has the ability to observe his face and look at his colors. He said lightly to the officials: "Get up! The masters of the ministry are a little tired, so some traditional Chinese mattress festivals will be spared.
Go back to Leizhou City directly!”
"Sir, obey the order!"
These are Lin Weiran's officials, so naturally no one dares to refuse.
The newly built Leizhou Avenue is not too long, and these officials have prepared official sedan chairs and a support team.
If it were normal, Lin Qingran would definitely choose to ride in a carriage and would not want to stay in the sedan chair like a coffin. But today Wang Sheng was sitting in the sedan chair, so he could only accompany him, so he chose the sedan chair that belonged to him.
Go in.
The team had already prepared, so they lifted these two big men and returned to the Zhenyangmen of Leizhou City, with firecrackers along the way.
"Have you heard that? The Blue Flag Gang was destroyed?"
"I've really been destroyed? A few days ago, Lord Lin Lei took his people out of the city just to show off!"
"Pretending? Let me tell you, there is nothing in this world that Lin Lei cannot do!"
"That's it! Look at what happened after Mr. Lin Lei took office, and he couldn't do it?"
...
This great victory also spread like wildfire in Leizhou City. The people in the city were very excited and chatting. This Lin Lei Gong not only acted vigorously to the bully and gentry, but also to get rid of the pirates who had been harmed for a long time. It is really a pity.
Praise the people.
The same is true. Lin Lei Gong's reputation became even greater. Some people even suspected that he was really the reincarnation of Lei Gong and came to Leizhou City to save them.
In the evening of that day, Leizhou Prefecture held a feast. In addition to the participation of many officials, all the gentry also attended. First, to celebrate the commendation and celebrate the removal of the great harm of the Blue Flag Gang; second, to practice it for Wang Sheng
Now, this big man is leaving tomorrow morning.
As the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, Wang Jin was busy with official duties, especially the news of the invasion of Japanese pirates in Chaozhou Prefecture, which forced him to go and deal with it, or immediately return to the governor's office in Wuzhou.
According to the latest news, a group of Japanese pirates who fled from Fujian invaded Chaozhou Prefecture, with a total of thousands of people. They robbed and set fire in Jieyang County, and several villages were robbed. Gao Hong, a thousand households guarding the city, were killed, causing panic among the local people.
There are even reports that this group of Japanese pirates had a great plan and they had planned to break through Jieyang County and carry out large-scale plunder. This is true. Many wealthy local households have fled to Chaozhou Prefecture or Guangzhou Prefecture, which has concealed the entire Guangdong.
A layer of shadow.
It has to be said that the result of the slowdown in the Japanese pirates in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was that the number of Japanese pirates traversing from Jiangsu and Zhejiang and Fujian increased, resulting in the sudden intensification of the Japanese pirates along the coast of Guangdong.
Especially in this crisis, some rebel forces that had already fled to the mountains and forests were also ready to move. The rebels in Chaozhou, Zhang Lian and Lin Chaoxi, had already taken action, while the rebels in Guangxi were eyeing each other.
Once the coastal areas of Guangdong are severely damaged by Japanese pirates, those rebels will definitely take advantage of the situation. Even the Yao people and Dong people who were suppressed before will respond one after another, and the entire Guangdong-Guangxi region may fall into turmoil.
Wang Jin's current position seems to be majestic, but in fact the pressure is not less than Lin Qinran. Once he achieves achievements, he will be able to become an official of the Nine Ministers, but if something goes wrong, he will have to go to Nanjing to retire.
He was also at the fork in his career, either being promoted and made a fortune, or being doomed.
"Ruoyu, Leizhou's stability depends entirely on you!"
Wang Jin chose to set off early in the morning and said sincerely to Lin Weiran, who came to greet him without a single point.
He had to think of the Japanese pirates led by Xu He who fled here, and it was difficult to guarantee that a second stronger Japanese pirate would appear, which led to Leizhou Prefecture also falling into turmoil.
If there is another turmoil in Leizhou Prefecture, then he will divide his troops here, which will not help him pacify the Chaozhou. This will inevitably make the problem more complicated, and even make the entire coastal areas of Guangdong fall into turmoil. Then he
The Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi will be doomed.
"The official must do his best!" Lin Weiran responded seriously in response to his expected gaze.
In fact, he was also afraid and worried. If the Japanese pirates were really coming towards this Leizhou, let alone thousands of Japanese pirates, even hundreds of Japanese pirates might have caused Leizhou Prefecture to fall into turmoil.
But what made him feel a little relieved was that now he had a tiger squat cannon suitable for field battles and a divine electric guard led by Qi Jiguang, which gave him some confidence.
In addition, Leizhou is located in the west of Guangdong. If the Japanese pirates want to fight, they need to pass through Chaozhou, Huizhou, Guangzhou, Zhaoqing and other places. However, their ships need to be replenished, which is likely to have a war with the officers and soldiers of the local garrison.
, I can't reach Leizhou Prefecture at all.
But he was not afraid of ten thousand things, but he was afraid that if he was in trouble, he had to prevent anything before he could happen. After seeing off Wang Jin, he immediately returned to the government office and started the intense deployment work.
On the one hand, it is to prevent the Japanese pirates from coming from the sea, allowing Leizhou Guards and Shendian Guards to make pre-war deployments; on the other hand, it is to make final preparations for opening the sea and strive to open a route through Nanyang. Even if the atmosphere is tense, he will also
