In the waters of Fuzhou, 430 warships of various types were parked neatly.

In Fuzhou City, eight thousand elite navy troops were stationed.

The people of Fuzhou have never felt so stable or so relieved.

In the past, people from Fuzhou would deliberately put a few soybeans under their mattress when they were sleeping at night, so that they would feel uncomfortable when they were sleeping and would not sleep too heavily.

If you don't sleep too much, you can hear the sound of gongs ringing by the patrol team in the city while the Japanese pirates attacked the city at night.

I heard that there was still a chance to escape with my wife and children, as well as the food and money stored at home. I went to the mountain to hide until the pirates and pirates left and then went down the mountain.

If you can't hear it, not only will the food and money be stolen by pirates and pirates, but your wife will have to be ruined. Whether your life can be preserved safely will be discussed.

The Manfu Building is very defensive inside and out. Not to mention an assassin, even a fly cannot fly into it.

The reason why he has such strict defense is naturally because Jiang Xia chose to work here.

Now Fuzhou is completely under his control. In order to prevent chaos in Fujian, Jiang Xia decided not to attack people from other prefectures and counties first, but to suppress pirates and Japanese pirates first.

Logically speaking, what Jiang Xia wanted to destroy the most was Wang Zhi’s Wufeng Japanese Pirate Group.

In the past, Wang Zhi and Jiang Xia were not clear about it, but after asking Qianmen to carefully check Wang Zhi's bottom, Jiang Xia was furious.

It turns out that Wang Zhi is the evil among the Japanese pirates.

How could he, a great Ming man, let those Japanese pirates listen to him?

The reason is very simple, because it is Japan's largest strategic material supplier.

Jiang Xia didn't understand. Wang Zhi was just a pirate leader. Where did he get the method of enlightenment that he could actually get a large number of Ming weapons, firearms, food, cotton cloth, medicinal materials and other supplies.

You should know that although grain, cotton, medicinal materials can be purchased in large quantities, they will be noticed by the local government. Wang Zhi was able to pass many levels and transport these things to Japan and sell them safely. It is really unlikely that he can do these things alone.

Besides, in addition to grain, cotton, and medicinal materials, more importantly, there are weapons and firearms.

Although the Ming Dynasty's battles are still mainly cold weapons, in fact, many armies have begun to be equipped with hot weapons such as bird guns, and weapons such as bird guns and Fran machine guns. Now the Ming Dynasty has begun to become more and more popular.

At least the Shenji Camp in the capital basically uses such weapons.

In fact, Jiang Xia had thought about improving guns, shells and other things. But he also knew very well that once it was improved, the technology would soon become popular.

This is equivalent to releasing a prehistoric beast. As for what consequences will be caused in the end, he could not fully predict it. It was just a little prediction, and he did not dare to try such an adventure.

Given the huge power of firearms, the Ming Dynasty's strict control of firearms was far beyond the ordinary people's imagination. But even so, Wang Zhi could still get a large number of firearms and send them to Japan.

Such selling of these strategic materials to Japan regardless of any consequences is no different from treason or treason. Once Japan stabilizes in the future, those weapons and ammunition will be used to fight against the Ming Dynasty.

After Jiang Xia read the last point of information about Wang Zhi, he reached out and flipped over the file and covered it. He took a deep breath, and his heart felt a little heavy.

This Wang Zhi is probably a bit tricky.

This person has sold a large amount of strategic materials and must have a large number of firearms and combat readiness resources. Secondly, this person's performance is enough to illustrate one problem, that is, there are people from the court behind this person.

And this person has a considerable power, and it is likely that he is not a person, but an organization.

Being able to mobilize a large amount of strategic materials and be able to send the Ming Dynasty safely is by no means possible by a high-ranking person. This requires a group of high-ranking people to do it.

When Jiang Xia thought of "a group of people with high status and power", the first thing he thought of Yang Tinghe.

But he soon denied this person because Wang Zhi had been in the coastal area for many years. He had deep roots both in Fujian and Zhejiang.

Although Yang Tinghe is not small in power, it is basically just a matter of recent years. In the past, he was just a Minister of War, Liudu, Nanjing, who did not have much real power.

So in this way, there is a force that has existed since the time of Zhu Houzhao and has been lurking until now. In addition to thinking about Wanhuang in this way, Jiang Xia really couldn't think of other organizations like this.

Jiang Xia got up and walked to the window, opened the window and looked at the night sky outside, and couldn't help but sigh. Daming, how many forces are there lurking in the darkness and waiting for an opportunity to move?

The matter went smoothly to wipe out pirates and Japanese pirates active on the sea.

Jiang Xia asked Ma Yunlong and Yu Dayou to take action, and it didn't take long to basically eliminate pirates in the coastal areas of Fujian. This time, not only did the Fuzhou atmosphere boost, but the entire Fujian also felt much more stable.

However, what made Jiang Xia not very happy was that although the pirates wiped out many, the Japanese pirates rarely encountered them. It was obvious that after Wang Zhi received the wind, he had already asked the Japanese pirates to evacuate the sea first.

The things on the sea are almost done, and the next thing is to do the things on the coast.

Jiang Xia, who had not taken action from the surrounding prefectures, sent the evidence of guilt and the "Detailed Rules for Meritorious Affairs" one by one according to the list provided by Jiang Wenqiang and Huang Jinyou.

If the officials who had experienced it in Yunnan in the past had been frightened by Jiangxia's various thunderous methods, who could not eat or sleep at night, received the detailed list of evidence of crimes and the "Detailed Rules for the Exchange of Meaning Points", Fujian officials immediately rushed to Fuzhou without stopping.

Originally, it took a lot of time to deal with such things as a whole. However, Jiang Xia's methods of handling things directly simplify the complicated things.

When every official from various prefectures and counties in Fujian arrived, Jiang Xia only needed to confirm with them that the listed crime was very true and whether there was any one to defend it.

If there is, give him time to defend himself. However, if the defense fails, the sentence will be aggravated. If there is no defense, then the meritorious service will be entered.

Handing over the stolen money and reporting other people's evidence of guilt all falls into the category of meritorious service. In this way, everyone will basically confirm the other party's evidence of guilt.

In just one week, the entire martial arts lecture hall and the people from the auxiliary hall worked together, and finally sorted out the files of the officials who took the initiative to report the crimes.

After the matter was done, we would send troops to arrest the officials who were lucky and did not have the head of the leader based on the list they had found.

As for the officials' stolen money, the huge amount of money has made Jiang Xia a little numb about the amount of money. If it is just based on the law of the Ming Dynasty, the law that officials would have to peel the skin and fill it with grass.

I'm afraid that Fujian officials will not know how many people will die.

Officials in Fujian cleared so many of them for a while, and without preventing chaos, Jiang Xia initiated the temporary appointment and removal procedure.

He served as a temporary official who passed the review and asked them to temporarily replace those vacant positions. If the final review is done well, he could be promoted. If the final review is not done well, he would not only not be promoted, but also demoted.

Officials all knew that this was their own opportunity, so they worked hard to show that the administration of Fujian has become more and more clear.

Next, almost everyone in the Ming Dynasty officialdom stared at Fujian. They believed that Jiang Xia would announce the opening of customs trade as soon as possible, but in the end, Jiang Xia did not. Instead, he announced that he would send a fleet to the West and go to various countries to imitate Zheng He.

The news spread quickly.

According to the news, the size of the fleet this time may not be as large as Emperor Chengzu's. But the things they brought were precious enough, all of which were the best goods from the Ming Dynasty and a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry.

Not only did many people in Fujian receive this news, but even Wang Zhi, who recently stayed in Matsuurazu, Japan, also received this news.

A large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, a small amount of guards.

For Wang Zhi, this is equivalent to a piece of delicious fat meat.

However, all the performances of Jiang Xia after he arrived in Fujian made Wang Zhi deeply afraid. From another perspective, a large amount of gold, silver and jewelry, and a small amount of guards. This is also very similar to a tempting trap set by a hunter.

If you open your mouth and prepare to put the fat piece of meat in it, there may be mechanisms hidden inside the fat piece. Then, not only will the fat be lost, but your teeth will be destroyed.

But danger is dangerous.

As a pirate, the fat meat that comes to his mouth is a business that is hard to eat or do. This makes Wang Zhi feel uncomfortable as if he is scratching his heart.

Just when Wang Zhi was hesitating, news came out of Fuzhou that Jiang Xia handed over everything to Yu Dayou and Ma Yunlong to make a decision, and he took his two beautiful wives to travel around the country.

This made Wang Zhi, who was about to decide not to attack the group of mission ships, couldn't help but have another thought.

Finally, Wang Zhi sent someone to Fuzhou and spent a lot of money to buy a shipping route map for the mission fleet from the servants of Manfulou.

In the end, Wang Zhi still couldn't resist the temptation and decided to attack the envoy.

After leaving Fuzhou, Jiangxia, who went directly to Jinzhou, soon received a message sent by Ryuichiro Hirashi. The news not only explained where Wang Zhi would intercept Jiang Xia and his envoyment ship, but also marked the navigation route map of Wang Zhi's base in Matsuurazu.

With this map, the Wangzhi Matsuurazu base can basically be saved.

On the morning of the fifth day of July, the weather is very good and the sun is shining.

The sea is calm.

On the Fuzhou Wharf, the neatly arranged mission teams slowly drove out of Fuzhou with a large number of items.

It is said that this time Jiangxia is preparing for the opening of customs trade, but who knows what the truth is?
