Chapter 180 Attacking the Saltworks
"Are you Brother Ruhai?"

Outside Yangzhou City, seeing Lin Ruhai face to face, Zhao Tingzhi almost didn't dare to recognize him.

After the scientific examination, Lin Ruhai entered the Hanlin Academy first, and then the Yushitai, and the two of them had a relationship.

At that time, Lin Ruhai's demeanor and appearance were impeccable, and he looked like a handsome young man facing the wind.

But it's only been ten years since I saw him, but his appearance has changed a lot.

The figure is thin, although the appearance has not changed much!
But the skin is dark and red, and there are even a few exposed areas.If it weren't for the official uniform of the Salt Patrol Censor, he would have almost thought that this person would be an old farmer from the countryside.

"If you don't go to the beach, don't you know that the wind is strong and the sun is poisonous? How can I be much better than those kitchen households?"

Lin Ruhai smiled and cupped his hands.

"Brother Ruhai, is it possible that you have been at the beach recently?"

Zhao Tingzhi hurriedly asked.

"Being entrusted with the sacred mandate, don't dare to neglect!"

Lin Ruhai said calmly.

Then he cupped his fists to the north, "Fortunately, God has mercy, this method of drying salt is finally done!"

After all, there was a hint of relief on his slightly black and red face.

"Ruhai, don't you want to lie to me? Now the price of salt across the country is rising, and it changes every day. If there is really no salt, it's better to make a confession in the morning!"

Zhao Tingzhi glanced at Lin Ruhai carefully, took his hand and said.

"It's about the national economy and the people's livelihood. Even Ruhai has the courage to lie to you. The method of drying the salt is really done. If there are enough people, not only will there be no salt problems in the Great Zhou Dynasty in the future, it will be The price can be reduced by at least ten times!" Lin Ruhai hurriedly explained.

"how is this possible?"

Zhao Tingzhi was shocked.

Although he doesn't understand salt affairs, he also knows how to make salt.

Fire is used to burn the stove, and the water evaporates and salt comes out, so those who make salt are called stove households.

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing! If your lord doesn't believe me, just follow Ruhai to the saltworks and see!"

Lin Ruhai said.

"My lord, the brothers are all tired! Why don't we go tomorrow!"

Hearing what Lin Ruhai said, the guards around Zhao Tingzhi frowned.

One of the longest ones walked to Zhao Tingzhi's side and said in a low voice.

Hearing this, Zhao Tingzhi's eyes became sharp at that moment, and he looked back at him extremely dissatisfied.

He really did not expect that the guards sent by Murong Yanda would be so unreliable and dare to interfere with his itinerary.

If I had known this, I would have refused his help and refused to accept these guards when I was in Bianjing.

"Father, what the public guard said makes sense! We have arrived in Yangzhou, and it won't be too late to go see the salt field tomorrow!"

Zhao Mingcheng also came over to the side.

He has been pampered since he was a child, and usually travels either in a sedan or in a car.

Where is the hard work of riding a horse for thousands of miles, now I just feel that my body and butt are not my own.

I desperately want to take a good rest. If I can find a thin Yangzhou horse to help me loosen my bones, it will be the most comfortable.

"Alright!"

Zhao Tingzhi didn't want to reprimand his son in front of everyone, and seeing that Mei Jiujiu was also tired, he nodded in agreement.

"You three, rush to the salt field immediately! Go and see if the method of drying salt is really successful!
If there is such a way, then contact Mr. Qin!The young master has now gone to the Xixia front line. We must not miss his important event! "

Seeing that Zhao Tingzhi and Lin Ruhai got into the car together, the veteran guard gave orders.

If Yang Xiao were here, he would definitely recognize that they were the four generals under Murong Fu, and the speaker was Gong Yeqian.

"Don't worry, brother, we're going there!"

Deng Baichuan responded, then winked at Bao BuTong and the others, and drove his horse away quickly.

"Master! What do you think the prefect of Murong thinks? Why is this good salt destroyed?"

Outside the Huai Salt Field, I looked at the huge salt pile in the distance and the salt workers who were on duty around it.

Huang Xin was really puzzled, and asked the man beside him in a low voice.

They were transferred from Qingzhou by Murong Yanda, and they had already done the destruction of ships and salt.

But who would have known that after a month of peace, someone arrived with Murong Yanda's warrant.What he did was still doing this, which made Huang Xin really confused.

"Is it up to you and me to talk about your lord's affairs? Huang Xin, don't forget that our family members are all in Qingzhou!"

Beside Huang Xin was a muscular man, although he was not riding a horse, but he was holding a huge mace in his hand, he turned his head and reprimanded him.

"Apprentice guilty!"

Hearing what Qin Ming said, Huang Xin didn't dare to talk back, so he could only lower his head helplessly.

"It's almost time, rush in! Then, quickly evacuate!"

Qin Ming looked at the sky, then looked at Deng Baichuan and the other three people not far away, and gave the order in a low voice.

"Yes!"

Huang Xin responded, and took out an arrow branch wrapped in oilcloth from his waist, lit it with a torch, and shot it in Yangkong.

"kill!"

Around Qin Ming and Huang Xin, there were no less than a thousand soldiers.

Seeing the sound of rockets, they roared unanimously, brandishing knives and guns, and rushed towards the salt field.

"Prepare!"

In the salt field, Yang Xiao squinted his eyes and sat in the hanging building, looking not far away.

The rocket just got up, and he reacted and waved his hand.

"Prepare!"

While Lu Jianxing gave the order loudly, he also shook the torch in his hand three times.

"ignition!"

"put!"

Ling Zhen and Tang Long were transferred in secret, and they had been too idle in the saltworks for a long time.

Seeing that they had finally come to their use, I felt relieved, and gave the order loudly.

Immediately, the twenty bronze cannons in front of them were simultaneously ignited.

"Boom boom boom..."

Accompanied by twenty loud noises, twenty shells were blasted out.

"what sound!"

Huang Xin rushed to the front and was startled when he heard a loud noise in the salt field and saw a flash of fire.

Then, he saw a dark red spherical object, with a scream, piercing the night sky.

It hit him hard, then jumped up and ran forward.

The speed of this thing was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.

I just subconsciously turned my head to look, but saw that a straight line came out around me, and three or four soldiers fell to the ground.

The ones with missing arms and broken legs are still good, but the worst ones have their entire bodies smashed to pieces.

"Flower bomb!"

After a successful shot, Ling Zhen yelled loudly.

"Yes!"

The soldiers beside the bronze gun carriage repeated his order loudly, and began to clean the gun bore!
"No, there is an ambush!"

Hearing the rumble of cannons, Deng Baichuan's expression became extremely ferocious.

"If there is an ambush, we have to rush! If the dog thief returns from Hengyang, we will never have another chance!"

Holding a steel knife in his hand, Feng Bo let out a tiger roar.

"That's right! We can't miss the grand master's important event!"

Bao BuTong also clenched his teeth, showing determination on his face.

All three of them knew why they attacked the salt field and drove Lin Ruhai out of office.

That is to help Murong Yanda onto the stage.

Once he becomes the censor of salt inspection, the Murong family will no longer be short of money, and they can recruit soldiers wantonly, and the country is expected to be restored.

Thinking that Lin Ruhai suffered from the burning of the salt field last time, that's why he deployed heavy troops.

And now that Yang Xiao has gone to Hengyang, if they don't burn down the salt field while that servant is away, they will never be able to destroy the salt field and help Murong Yanda come to power, then they will lose the best chance of the Murong family's restoration of the country.
