Chapter 121: So Angry! The Mess Left Behind by Li Jingxuan
"Greetings, sir!"
The leader walked in with two naval soldiers.
Then, he bowed down before Jiang Chen.
"Get up and take a look."
"Is this your commander?"
Jiang Chen smiled and waved his hand, then asked several people to stand up.
Upon hearing this, the leader turned around and looked at Li Shijie.
"My Lord, this man is that piece of trash!"
"Liu Fengjie, you are so brave!"
"How dare you insult this commander? You are courting death!!"
I heard that the leader named Liu Fengjie dared to call me a waste.
Li Shijie, with his hands and feet tied, struggled to stand up and was about to rush forward to slap Liu Fengjie.
But his hands and feet were tied, so he had no room to move.
Before he could rush to Liu Fengjie, he was dragged down by his bound feet and fell to the ground.
"Li Shijie, do you know me?"
Looking at the embarrassed Li Shijie, Jiang Chen asked calmly.
"Humph, you are just the dog official sent by the court."
"I'm telling you, you'd better let me go."
"Otherwise, after today's incident is over, I will let my uncle arrest you!"
Li Shijie, who had been staying in the brothel for many days , had no idea that Li Jingxuan had been dismissed from his official position.
After hearing what Li Shijie said, Jiang Chen laughed instead of getting angry.
He carefully looked up and down at Li Shijie, who looked like a dandy young man.
"I'm afraid your uncle is already in danger."
"You're talking nonsense, my uncle is the governor!"
Li Shijie, who had been fearless at first, suddenly became panicked after Jiang Chen said this.
"Haha, I don't have the leisure to joke with you."
"Li Yulin!"
"I will be here!"
After hearing Jiang Chen calling him, Li Yulin stood up.
He bowed respectfully to Jiang Chen.
"Cousin?!"
"Hahaha, it's good that you're here, cousin. Quickly untie me."
"Brother, let's work together to deal with this ignorant guy!"
Li Shijie, who had sobered up at this time, looked at Li Yulin and said ecstatically.
"you shut up!"
"You must not be rude to the Regent, or else, don't blame me, your cousin, for being ruthless."
Unexpectedly, Li Yulin scolded him harshly.
Looking at this cousin who always obeyed him in the past, Li Shijie felt a sense of strangeness in his heart.
"Okay, Yulin."
"Take him back and put him in jail!"
Jiang Chen no longer had the mood to continue talking to this dandy boy.
Then he said to Li Yulin.
"I obey your orders!"
Li Yulin didn't wait for Li Shijie to react and slapped him in the face.
Then he used Li Shijie's own sleeve to cover his mouth.
After watching Li Yulin drag Li Shijie out like a dead dog.
Jiang Chen turned and looked at Liu Fengjie, the naval leader.
"Your name is Liu Fengjie, right?"
"Yes, sir."
Liu Fengjie bowed slightly and replied respectfully.
"Tell me about the current situation of the navy."
Jiang Chen nodded and asked seriously.
"Reply, sir."
"Now my navy has a total of 1,500 soldiers."
"They are commanded by three leaders, and only five warships remain."
As he spoke, a look of loss appeared on Liu Fengjie's face.
"One thousand five hundred people?!"
"Didn't they say that the navy has 3,000 men?"
After hearing Liu Fengjie's answer, Jiang Chen asked in shock.
"That was before, since the beginning of last year."
"That bastard Li Jingxuan dismissed half of the navy soldiers."
"Then, report to the court and still claim to have 3,000 soldiers."
"Thus, they withheld food and wages and enriched themselves."
After saying that, Liu Fengjie shook his head helplessly and let out a long sigh.
After hearing this news, Jiang Chen's anger towards Li Jingxuan reached its peak.
He didn't expect that Li Jingxuan would be so bold and presumptuous.
He was so bold that he even took away the food and wages of his officers and soldiers.
They all have to embezzle!!
Trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, Jiang Chen said to Liu Fengjie.
"If that's the case, why don't you report it?"
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, Liu Fengjie shook his head helplessly.
"You don't know, sir."
"This Jiangnan area is full of Li Jingxuan's followers."
"If I report this to the higher authorities, Li Jingxuan will find an excuse to get rid of me."
Having said that, Liu Fengjie sighed helplessly again.
For him, a leader who came from a commoner family.
Li Jingxuan is a mountain that cannot be climbed over!
The burden is heavy on these ordinary people.
Looking at the helpless Liu Fengjie, Jiang Chen smiled.
"Well, now Li Jingxuan has been dismissed from his post by me."
"Now that I think about it, I don't know where it is hiding."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen walked up to Liu Fengjie.
"The most urgent task now is to resolve the issue of the navy first."
"I don't know why you are so anxious about the navy, but what is it?"
Liu Fengjie asked with some confusion about Jiang Chen's words.
After all, in his opinion.
Now, Jiang Chen just tripped Li Jingxuan.
It would be a shame to restore peace to Jiangnan without properly appeasing the people.
But they want to take care of the mess of the navy, which is totally putting the cart before the horse.
"I want to wipe out the Japanese pirates, and the navy is the key."
After saying that, Jiang Chen smiled.
After hearing this answer, Liu Fengjie was stunned.
After a long time, he slowly came back to his senses.
Liu Fengjie came back to his senses and bowed to Jiang Chen.
"I, General Liu Fengjie, am willing to lead the navy to lend a helping hand to you, my Lord!"
"Haha, no hurry, no hurry."
"Everything has to be done slowly. The navy's warships and soldiers have to be recruited again."
As he spoke, Jiang Chen helped Liu Fengjie up.
"My lord, these are easy to handle!"
"I will be able to recall most of the soldiers who left."
"As for warships and the like, you may have to figure out a way."
"Some of the warships of my navy were sold to some chambers of commerce."
"A small number of them were sold to the Japanese pirates by that dog official Li Jingxuan."
Hearing this, Jiang Chen suddenly felt a little relieved from the pressure in his heart.
Fortunately, Liu Fengjie was able to recall some of the navy’s soldiers, and the warship had been sold to the Chamber of Commerce.
As long as you have money, you can buy it back from the Chamber of Commerce.
However, Jiang Chen was still a little angry.
He didn't expect that Li Jingxuan would even dare to sell the navy's warships to the Japanese pirates.
This guy will do anything to get rich!
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen sighed helplessly.
"Liu Fengjie, from today on, you will be the commander of the navy!"
"I obey your orders!"
After promoting Liu Fengjie to the commander of the navy, Jiang Chen instructed him to quickly recall the soldiers and intensify training.
Jiang Chen took Li Yulin and Wang Qingping away.
Now, everything is ready except for the east wind.
Just find a way to get some of the warships back from those chambers of commerce.
The task of wiping out the Japanese pirates is no longer just empty talk.
