The Science Ship left Jinling City from Waijinchuan Gate and went down the Yangtze River. It was already dark when it arrived at Beixinzhou.
A long sandbar divides the Yangtze River waterway into two. The river is narrow, the water is fast, and it is dark on all sides, making it very difficult to sail a boat.
The person in charge of the helm is Elder Niu¡¯s son Niu Huan. Although he is not yet forty years old, he has been at the helm of the Yangtze River for more than ten years.
By the light of the ship's lantern, he stared at the river, and when he was about to pass this section, he suddenly noticed something vaguely moving in the reeds on the sandbank to the north
Niu Huan hurriedly picked up the telescope and took a closer look. He could vaguely see several clippers emerging from the reeds, heading towards the Science No. in the dark to outflank them.
¡°There¡¯s something going on!¡± Niu Huan shouted hurriedly, and at the same time pulled the alarm bell in the wheelhouse.
Amidst the clanging alarm bells, heavily armed guards poured out of the cabin and quickly occupied various shooting positions on the ship. Longqing-style rifles were loaded and ready for battle.
Seeing that their whereabouts were exposed, the people on the fast boat no longer concealed their presence, lit torches one after another, showed off their bows, arrows, swords and guns, and started shouting loudly.
"Stop the boat, stop the boat, or you'll be rude!"
Seeing that the way forward was blocked, the Science Ship slowly stopped. At the same time, someone held a copper trumpet and shouted: "This is an official ship, carrying distinguished guests. Get out of the way quickly, otherwise we will not kill you!"
"We are looking for distinguished guests, let the boy named Zhao come out and speak!" the leader on the other side said arrogantly.
"I am Zhao Hao, what are you going to do?" After a while, a righteous voice sounded on the Science Number.
"We want to invite you to be our guest. I would like to advise you to get off the boat and come over," the leader said loudly, "otherwise"
"What else?"
"Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude. When the time comes, the sword has no eyes, and it will be bad if it hurts Mr. Zhao's noble body." The leader sneered, and in order to prove that what he said was true, he even had someone shoot an arrow at the ship. .
With a loud sound, the arrow hit the bulkhead of the ship.
"The enemy is attacking, fight back immediately!" A loud shout rang out on the Science, followed by gunfire on the ship.
In the darkness, countless tongues of fire spit out, projectiles whizzed towards us, and there was a scream and the sound of falling into the water on the boat.
This time, there were more than a hundred people sent to kidnap by Uncle Ping Jiang. After a burst of gunfire, about twenty of them were knocked down
The remaining servants were all confused. That's not what the script said. Didn't it say that this kind of rich, powerful boy who has never seen blood would cherish his life the most?
As long as you scare and scare, will you be able to capture your hands? Why are you so cruel? And he still has a fucking gun? !
"Brother Liu, what should we do?" The men all looked at the leader.
The leader, Brother Liu, struggled for a moment, and finally woke up after firing for the second time and knocking down about ten more people. The opponent has sharp firearms and tall ships, so we are no match at all.
He quickly issued an order: "Withdraw!"
The servants turned the boat around one after another and rowed desperately to escape downstream.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I turned around, I was horrified to find that at some point, a row of two or three hundred ships appeared in front of me.
The torches on the boat were brightly lit, illuminating every detail of the hull. It was the Cangshan Ship, a river patrol warship under the jurisdiction of the Censor Yamen of Jiangdu.
Each Cangshan ship has 30 sailors, two big guns, 3 bowl-mouth blunderbuss, 4 bird blunderbuss, 40 spray canisters, and 4 medicine crossbows. It can be said that the firepower is strong.
Several Cangshan boats blocked the way, and the servants did not dare to force their way through.
"Lie down on the boat and don't move at all, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!" The shouts of the officers and soldiers came from the Cangshan boat.
The servants quickly followed the instructions, and in this way they could avoid the cannons behind them.

Half an hour later, Yin Qianhu, led by the army, came to the Science and saluted Mr. Zhao with a smile on his face.
"Sir, all the bad guys have been arrested."
"Oh, thanks to Brother Yin this time." Zhao Hao supported him enthusiastically, and Cai Kun beside him stuffed a thick stack of silver notes into his sleeve.
In the flash of lightning, Cai Kun clearly saw that the color of the note was red, and knew that it was a banknote of twelve denominations. I'm afraid this pile must contain two thousand taels.
"Oh, what are you doing?" Cai Kun was so happy that he couldn't help but pretend to be humble.
"Tea for the brothers." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "If Brother Yin and the brothers had not fulfilled their duties and kept patrolling at night, we might have fallen into the hands of the bad guys this time."
"It's all what it should be, it should be." Cai Kun hurriedly said with a smile. In fact, he could see clearly that Mr. Zhao's guards had just fired two rounds of guns and killed less than half of the thieves. ???. This was the assassination of the eldest princess, which shocked the government and the public!
Unless the noble and benevolent Princess Ning'an conspired with him to lie, how could that be possible?
Yin Qianhu¡¯s head was buzzing. Only then did he realize how much contribution he had made! This is to rescue the eldest princess! It¡¯s a hundred times and a thousand times more valuable than rescuing Mr. Zhao!
Immediately, the way he looked at Chen Wangcheng was different. Yin Qianhu realized that his glory and wealth for the rest of his life would be with this boy. Thinking of this, his eyes turned green.
"Impossible, you said the eldest princess is on your ship? Are you able to ask His Highness to come out?" Chen Wangcheng's head was buzzing. His elder brother didn't tell him that there was the current emperor's only sister on the ship. No, definitely not! nonexistent!
"Quiet!" A scream suddenly sounded in the cabin, and a girl in palace clothes walked out of the heavily guarded cabin. "My godmother needs to rest!"
The girl was only sixteen or seventeen years old. She was born into a beautiful woman, and her temperament was even more luxurious. Under the moonlight, she looked like a fairy, which made the people on the deck lose their minds for a while.
"This is the adopted daughter of Her Royal Highness the Princess, the daughter of the current Zhang University Scholar." Zhao Hao coughed slightly, not very happy that others looked at his wife in this way.
Since Xiao Zhuzi has joined Lianli Company, Mr. Zhao thinks that she has tied the knot with him
ps. Yaoshou, my computer suddenly stopped working today. After tinkering with it for a long time, I still couldn¡¯t fix it. I was so tired that my back ached, so I had to send it in for repair. It turned out that the motherboard was broken, so I changed the motherboard. When I came back, I found that my win10 had become a pirated version, so I called Microsoft customer service. After a lot of trouble, it was completely troublesome. I quickly continued writing. I probably won¡¯t be able to finish it tonight. I¡¯ll continue writing it in the morning!
