"Thank you Your Highness to praise!" Zhou Li laughed.

"By the way, have you heard of Ji Gang?" Zhu Jun asked.

Zhou Li frowned, "Your Highness is asking about Captain Ji of Dongshansi?"

"That's right, do you know this person?" Zhu Jun asked.

In theory, the Gongwei Department is a secret agency, affiliated with the emperor, and the ranks of the various branches are confidential.

But Zhou Li intends to curry favor with Zhu Jun and said, "The official is not familiar with him!"

"Oh, it doesn't matter, I'll ask, but I heard that he has a strong ability to handle cases." Zhu Jun smiled and did not ask in detail.

Seeing that Zhu Jun did not ask in detail, Zhou Li didn't say much.

After chatting for a while, Zhou Li said goodbye and left.

The reason why Zhu Jun asked questions was not aimless. Ji Gang was a pawned by Zhu Di.

When his man entered the Dongshan territory, he was investigated by Ji Gang.

In other words, Zhu Di had already penetrated the Gongwei Department, so this must be prevented.

Afterwards, Zhu Jun left the prefect's office and quietly came to the salt field to patrol.

Tomorrow, Xu Jinda and Chang Mao will be able to arrive in Yangzhou by leading their troops, and I don’t know what my father and elder brother mean.

There are Doctor Zhao and Ding Zixing here to guard the city, so what else is insecure?

Could it be to suppress the bandits?

Just when Zhu Jun visited Fu'an Salt Field, there was a sudden shout of scolding from outside.

Following the chaotic footsteps, "Those who come stop, those who trespass into the salt field die!"

But the scolding of soldiers guarding the salt field was accompanied by fierce screams.

"Not good, it's the pirate, hurry up, quick sound of gold, notice..."

Zhu Jun looked at the cooking pot set up by the salt field and the sewage all over the floor, thinking about whether to improve the environment.

Immediately afterwards, soldiers from the King of Wu came over anxiously, "Your Highness, something happened. A group of bandits came outside and were attacking the salt field.

The other party has crossbows, weapons, and well-equipped, and the people in the salt field cannot defend it!"

Zhu Jun's face changed. He could leave, but what should the workers in the salt farm do?

There are at least 1,55 people here, almost all of them are salt households.

The so-called salt household is the hereditary salt farm worker.

There are not many soldiers in the salt farm on weekdays, and the patrol staff in the inspection department have only been killed by more than a hundred people.

You know, there are thirty salt fields here.

Fu'an is the best salt field.

"I am King Wu of Daye. What should the workers do if I leave?" Zhu Jun wanted to escape for a moment, but if he escaped, what should these workers do?

In the future, the news will reach the capital. Will the King of Wu want to be face-saving?

He has an army under his command, but he is still the leader of the army. How can he raise his head in the future if it is reported?

So after a moment, Zhu Jun angrily said, "Call our people here quickly to fight against the enemy. We have the decisive stalk and have received professional training. Are we still afraid of a group of bandits?"

"But Your Highness, there are only 200 people accompanying you this time. Otherwise, you can stay and fight against the enemy with humble power!" Niu Wuliudao.

Xun Busan, who was begging Zhu Jun, also begged Zhu Jun: "Your Highness, the son of a thousand gold, if you don't sit in the hukou hall, let's leave first, so as not to..."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhu Jun said angrily, and then said to the person in charge of the salt farm next to him: "Come to summon all the workers.

The people of the Suzaku Army went forward to defend the enemy, and jointly with the patrol officers and the patrol soldiers of the salt field must keep the enemy outside."

The person in charge of the salt field was also calmed down, "Yes, Your Highness, the villain is going now!"

"The salt field should have weapons. Take out all the weapons and let the young man bring them with them and fight against the enemy!" Zhu Jun issued an order in an orderly manner, "Niu Wuliu, go to the world, follow me!"

He knew very well that the so-called bandits were definitely not that simple.

These people are definitely raised by those in the Yangzhou officialdom.

Why don’t these people dare to attack Yangzhou Prefecture?

But while he was inspecting, he ran over to attack?

In other words, there is a rebellion around him, and this rebellion is most likely a person from the salt field.

Thinking of this, Zhu Junxin became colder.

Originally, he just wanted to clean up the Yangzhou officialdom.

Now, if he doesn’t turn Yangzhou into the sky, his surname will not be Zhu!

Zhu Jun did not have the means of self-protection. He took out something from his arms, which was a short musket.

This musket is a good thing and has not been mass-produced yet, but Zhu Jun asked someone to create one and carry it with you in case of emergency needs.

The most important thing is that building a musket requires steel, which is of poor quality and is easy to explode.

Zhu Jun's short musket uses the best materials, and the gunpowder ratio is also installed in advance, with a small possibility of blowing the chamber and high stability.

Niu Wuliu ran quickly in front of Zhu Jun, and about twenty people were left by Zhu Jun, while the others were fighting against the thieves outside the salt field.

It is definitely too late to go to the city to call people, so I can only save myself.

Boom!

Before Zhu Jun rushed outside, he heard an explosion sound outside.

It was the Zhuque Army who took action.

Zhu Jun has always been very careful, even the guards with their own weapons.

More than 170 people lined up in three lines, and even the archery was in three-stage style.

When the enemy approached, the last row of throwers threw the grenade out.

In this way, the enemy's momentum was greatly curbed, and the power of the grenade explosion was not as great as expected, but it was not small.

The sputtered iron sheet burst into the surroundings, and I don’t know how many people were shot by the fragments.

This is all second-hand.

When people are excited, adrenaline soars, and they will not be able to react when injured.

But the violent explosion can shock them.

The strong smoke inhaled into the lungs, causing them to cough continuously.

Compared with the broken patrol soldiers, the Suzaku Army continued to advance.

The people Zhu Jun brought by his side are the strongest in the entire army.

They can compete with veterans in Huaixi, but the worst is their experience in killing people.

But they are not lacking in courage.

Zhu Jun pushed the gunpowder into the short musket. This distance happened to be within the shooting range. The effective killing range should be about fifty or sixty meters, and the maximum distance should not exceed 100 meters.

To be honest, short muskets are average, not as powerful as long muskets, but this is just the beginning.

The appearance of muskets did not cause crushing damage to the bow and arrow at the beginning.

However, it is much better to train musketeers than archers.

An archer can't be able to become an archer for a year if he trains an archer.

But a musketeer can kill the enemy in three months.

In this era, infantry is dense, and as long as the power of the musket increases, the rate of explosion decreases, and after forming combat power, the lethality is very considerable.

However, Zhu Jun can only aim at people with a short musket now.

These people looked brave, but when did they see such a weapon?

After a few rounds, he was killed so much that he was in chaos.

Accompanied by shrill screams, these people began to retreat.

Zhu Jun said angrily: "Charge and keep these people as much as possible!"
