Chapter 527 Raising the flag and asking for a monthly ticket
At this time, a place composed of low houses built along the streets south of Quanzhou's city walls. △↗, the intertwined and complex alleys make the roads here look like a maze. Although most cities in the Song Dynasty had drainage systems, Quanzhou was no exception, the smell here was still very bad. The smell of donkey and horse manure on the street was blowing in the air together with the salty and wet sea breeze blowing from Tsutong Port. Near the world's largest port, there is a mixture of fish and dragons and dirty mess.
The scene. Among the mixed houses, there is a small house that was rented by several boat bows from Nanfan. In this era, sailing trade was carried out by the monsoon. The sailing ships on the Nanfan route were only two round trips a year. When the southeast wind was blowing in spring and summer, and when the northwest wind was blowing in autumn and winter, it left. Now is the time when the wind direction is about to change. The bows living here are busy taking care of their ships and preparing to go out to sea, so they don’t stay at home.
But today, there were many men dressed as boatmen in this small house, all of whom were tanned and strong in their bodies. They were carrying cheap pork head meat and inferior soju, as if everyone was going to buy a drunk together in the last few days before going to sea.
The residents around all greeted each other kindly with a few of them. This is the settlement of the people of Runhai in Quanzhou. Those who live here are either Runhai men, their families, or old sailors who can no longer go out to sea.
Of course, they are all Han people. The sailors in Quanzhou have their own settlements. Most of them are Tianfang scholars, who build houses near their homes. There are also Zhenshen Temples that specialize in prayer. With these Zhenshen temples as the center, the Tianfang Buddhism in Quanzhou has formed a whole. If one is furious, it will explode! Moreover, all maritime merchants have force and are not weak. Once a disturbance is caused, Quanzhou will suffer great chaos.
Therefore, officials sent by the Southern Song Dynasty court to Quanzhou have always been more polite to Bai Fan of the Tianfang Sect. Even Wang Jian, who brought troops to confiscate the Pu family's residence, did not implicate the Pu family, and did not pursue the in-laws and deployments of the Pu family. As for the Pu family, most of them fled and did not catch half of them.
It can be said that the Pu family and the forces of the Quanzhou Tianfang Sect did not receive any damage in the last house search storm! And they did not think that the officials in the Southern Song Dynasty in Quanzhou were threatened by any of Wang Jian’s 3,000 Sichuan veterans were better off. As soon as the Sichuan Army left, the Song army stationed in Quanzhou, whether it was the regiment training or the imperial army, were actually all fighting against the Wushao. They were not the opponent of Baifan of Quanzhou at all.
In history, Quanzhou City, which had tens of thousands of elite Huai soldiers stationed, was easily captured by these Baifan and the rebellious left-wing naval forces! It can be seen that the strength of the Baifan Sea Merchants of Quanzhou Tianfang Sect is so powerful!
However, in Quanzhou in this time and space, the Baifanhai merchant of the Tianfang Sect has a nightmare rival in Quanzhou. The rising Tiandao Sect and the behemoth behind Tiandao Sect!
Now, the leaders of Quanzhou Tiandaoism have dressed as boatmen's bows and gathered in this house outside Quanzhou City. Most of the doors and windows were tightened, and everyone sat around two large tables. The only source of light in the room was a ray of sunlight cast from the open skylight. Dust was flying among the light columns, which made a trace of religious atmosphere here. Everyone didn't speak, but just looked anxiously at the stairs leading to the second floor. Suddenly, someone shouted.
"Ange Mo, the Lord of Fangtan is here!"
With a thud, everyone stood up. Then the stairs rang. The first thing that appeared in front of everyone was a thick man in his thirties, with a big beard with a dense and messy face. His skin was very fair, and he was clearly contrasted with a group of black carbon heads here. Obviously, he was not a man who often ran to the sea. However, at this time, he was dressed as a sailor, and he was carrying a somewhat outrageous long sword on his waist. This person was the owner of the Quanzhou Tiandao Sect Branch. He was known as the Shisanlang of Yumen!
Following Fang Yumen came out of a woman in white, with a fluttering white dress, elegant appearance and solemn expression, as if a fairy in heaven was hanging on her belt. She was a two-foot-long horizontal sword, which was the standard sword of the Taoist Taoist in the Heavenly Daoism!
"See Angel Mo, Lord Fang!" A group of men like boatmen shouted in unison.
"No gifts! Let's sit!" Mo Yingniang waved her hand generously, then pulled over a chair and sat down between the two tables. Fang Yumen also sat down on the chair brought by another man.
"Everyone, I am Mo Yingniang, the envoy of Heaven. This time, I came to take the land of Quanzhou under the decree of King Ming!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole room of the leader of the Tiandao Cult became excited.
"I finally waited for this day!"
"That's great! Now we're going to be proud!"
"No need to look at Bai Fan's face in Tianfang Sect anymore!"
"I will never be angry with them anymore!"
"This Quanzhou is our world..."
After hearing these words, Mo Yingniang just snorted softly, and everyone immediately calmed down. Even the leaders of the Tiandao Cult who had been operating behind enemy lines for a long time knew that the Ming King did not discipline the affairs of the academic affairs. This Mo Yingniang was the actual controller of the Tiandao Cult!
"What are you thinking? Quanzhou Prefecture has not been taken down yet! You just want to become the master? Humph! Let me tell you clearly that this time, the attack on Quanzhou is mainly due to the power of our Tiandao Sect! The army of the Ming King will not move."
"What? The army does not move?"
"Where can we have the strength to win Quanzhou!"
"Yes, there are tens of thousands of white sparrows in Quanzhou, and there are thousands of them that can be fought. Recently, there are many Mamruk warriors. It is said that they can fight more than the Sir-Judged Steel Armored Soldiers in the Ming Dynasty!"
"In addition to Bai Fan, there are also training for the old thief Zhao and Yu Zhao. Xu, Chen and Zeng, outside Quanzhou City, all followed the old thief Zhao, and even a hundred thousand troops could be pulled out!"
Everyone was talking, and they felt that relying on the power of Quanzhou Heavenly Daoist disciples, it was unlikely to succeed. This was a very explosive voice suddenly sounded: "Are you scared? You are afraid! "Ah, you want to be a founding hero, you want to be a wealthy man, but you want to be a mother when you fight to death, but you are afraid of death! You don't think about it. If the Ming King sent thousands of lord soldiers to kill him and take Quanzhou Prefecture, what contributions will our brothers have? If there is no merit, what official do you still want? What kind of title do you want? It's all the life of being a pauper for the rest of your life!"
The person who spoke was Shisanlang of Yumen and Fang Yumen. The people below immediately disappeared. Quanzhou Tiandaoism said it was a religion, but it was a bit like a gang. The religious atmosphere was not strong. It was better to say that it was willing to follow Fang Yumen, the eldest brother. Now that the eldest brother got angry, the younger brother below was silent.
Seeing that the people below were silent, Fang Yumen said again: "Mo, why do you make a message about this? You dare to make a fuss of swords and fires in the sea of fire!"
Mo Yingniang smiled faintly, "You don't need to fight Quanzhou City, you just go to Taiyi Temple to take action... Can this Taiyi Temple be defended?"
"Can you keep it!" Fang Yumen patted his chest, "That's my old nest. It's more reliable than an iron bucket. How can he not keep it?"
"That's good!" Mo Yingniang pointed her head lightly and whispered, "Now, please contact Ji Zhiji of Quanzhou Gentleman and Marine Chamber of Commerce for me!"
"Is it the evil evil spirit of the South China Sea? " Fang Yumen frowned slightly. The Ji Zhiji who Mo Yingniang called for him was not a good bird at all, and he was a big pirate! The characters in the underworld in Quanzhou thought he was too vicious, so they gave him the nickname of the evil spirit of the South China Sea. Now, Mo Yingniang is so cute, uh, the cold little beauty is going to see him?
"It's him!" Mo Yingniang took out a Sun and Moon token and threw it to Fang Yumen, "Call him to come here to see me! Immediately!"
...
"What? The disciples of Tiandao in Quanzhou are gathering in Taiyi Temple? Is this going to do something?"
When Wang Lixin heard the news, he suddenly stood up and said, "Go and invite Zhao Tuanlian, You Gongwei, Wang Youwu and the others to come."
An aide next to him suddenly interrupted and reminded: "Da Mansion, should you invite Ma Chengwu too?"
"Ma Shoushan?" Wang Lixin paused. Although he had not been to Quanzhou for a long time, he also knew that the Tianfang Sect Baifan was a huge force in this city. As an official and scholar-official of the Song Dynasty, he naturally felt that Baifan in Quanzhou was really a bit too big. However, in his opinion, the Han people and sea merchants in Quanzhou were the same. Merchants with force, whether they were Han or Fan people, were always a disaster!
Compared with foreign merchants, the Han merchants seemed even more abominable. Most of them were granted the Northern Ming Dynasty and donated gentry. Their ships were equipped with thunder arrows! Their combat power was even stronger than the naval warships of the court! Fortunately, most of these Han merchants lived their own lives and did not participate much in the dispute between the Song and Ming dynasties.
"Go and invite me." After thinking about it, he decided to let Tianfang Sect Bai Fan participate, because he also knew that the conflict between Tianfang Sect and Tiandao Sect was very large. The Unit God Sect was born to reject each other!
At a moment, several characters whose names were named rushed in neatly, all of them looked nervous, obviously knowing that the Tiandao people in Quanzhou were moving.
"The demons of the Heavenly Dao Cult are in trouble!" Wang Lixin did not exchange greetings, and he went straight to the point when he met. "They were gathering in Taiyi Temple outside the city, and there were always tens of thousands of people. What do you think of it?"
"Fight!" Quanzhou Tuanlian Envoy Zhao Yuyu said the first, "How polite are you going to be in trouble? Please order the government to send troops to encircle and suppress them quickly!"
"Fight!"
"This is our opportunity to serve the court!"
"May Mansion, just order it!"
