Chapter 388: Finding the Roots and Catching the Enemy in One Fell Swoop
So, Wen Fu jumped up, stepped on Mai Ke's shoulder, and stood firmly on it. He said to McCor, "Alright, let's go." ”
Mai Ke pulled up from the ground and jumped onto the looming rope, as if he were walking on it, but did not actually make contact with it, but only followed the vine to see where it led.
Wen Fu stood on top of Mai Ke's shoulders, his feet as if they were glued to them, no matter how his upper body shook, his feet did not move.
After a short period of effort, I came to the outside of the top of the mountain. Under the cover of the big tree, the two peeked into the center of the mountaintop, and saw that there was a natural cave there, and people were coming in and out. Ten miles to the south, a green flag was waving.
McKee didn't know what green meant, but felt that this color, mixed with green trees, was difficult to identify. Especially at that distance from the beach, if you don't have special training, you don't even know that there is a flag waving here.
At this time, Wen Fu had already jumped off Mai Ke's shoulder, and the two of them carefully touched the cave, and soon reached the outside of the cave, and after the two approached, they stood there still. Immediately I heard someone talking inside.
Peeking in, I saw five or six people discussing something. Everyone was wearing green clothes, especially the old man in the middle, who was even greener.
The two stopped watching, just listening intently to what they were saying. For this Jing language, Mai Ke is difficult to deal with, but Wen Fu has no problem. After listening for a while, he told Mai Ke what he had heard and what they knew about the situation in the area on a daily basis.
Since Mai Ke Guangzhou subdued Wenfu. Mai Ke set him a strategic task to dominate the South Seas. Since then, Wen Fu has taken advantage of the complicated nature of his pirate personnel to return to where they came from and gather various intelligence. Therefore, Wen Fu can be said to be very familiar with the situation here.
It turned out that the people gathered here were all disciples of the Green Leaf Sect. The people in the cave are the leaders and elders of this sect. The leader was the old man covered in green. The people next to the old man in mottled green were all elders.
This religion worships the color green, believing that green represents life, life, and the source of life, which is the deity they worship.
The congregation, from the leader to the general believer, is divided into grades according to the color of their clothing: the first class of turquoise, the second class of mixed green, the third class of purple, the fourth class of red, and the fifth and last class of yellow-brown color.
The purpose of their gathering here today is to drive out the French army. And the reason for driving them away is ridiculous - because these people are dressed in blue. Because of the blue. In their opinion. It's the blue of the devil, the natural enemy of green.
Black, on the other hand, is also an unpopular color, but it is acceptable. After all, it's green at night. It can only be hidden in the black.
Originally, the government at all levels in Annam was against the Green Leaf Sect. This time, however, they actively supported their actions, as the aggressors made it even more intolerable to them.
Therefore, this time they are on the premise that the government is opening a convenient door. At the beginning, 100,000 congregants gathered, and the other 50,000 people continued to arrive, reaching an unprecedented scale.
Just now, they communicated the banner and informed the armies of all walks of life to concentrate their forces on besieging the French army in blue, while the Wenfu fleet in black was only affected by the pond fish.
If they evacuated, it is estimated that the Green Leaf cultists would not pursue them, and Napoleon's fleet, once they escaped, could only be pursued even more.
The leader and elders of the Green Leaf Sect gathered in this hilltop cave to command the siege of the French fleet, and it seemed that the defense was lax, but it was not. The defense on the top of the mountain is lax because they have no layers of defense from the top of the mountain to the mountainside, and even flies can't fly in.
And the way Mai Ke flew over was originally a dead end, there was only a sudden attack by the Green Leaf Sect, and it was impossible for anyone to attack from there.
The rope only guides the direction of the small building, and at the same time, it can also be pulled to inform the people in the cave. Wen Fu suddenly made a move just now, and he didn't have a chance to notify the two guards at all.
Then, Mai Ke only regarded the rope as a vine that followed the vine, and did not touch it in the slightest, although the people in the cave did not notice that anyone was spying on their lair.
According to the comprehensive introduction of Tong Guò Wenfu, combined with today's development so far, Mai Ke has determined that if this head organ of the Green Leaf Sect is terminated, and then they are forced to stop today's offensive, this large-scale battle can be stopped. And such suspension is in the interests of both parties.
If the fight continues, the Combined Fleet has every reason to use heavy weapons, those naval guns on the warships are not vegetarian, and the entire ten-mile long beach is included in the best strike range of the gunboats.
Maybe these leaders of the Green Leaf Sect are planning to force the French army to go on a killing spree, in order to provoke more anti-French anger.
There are six sect leaders and elders inside, and Mai Ke is confident that he can deal with them with Wen Fuhe himself, not to mention that they are still in the shadows, and they can attack by surprise.
Mai Ke made a decision and whispered to Wen Fu: "Capture the thief and capture the king!"
Then the two of them rushed into the cave like cheetahs, and Wen Fu shouted in the Jing language Mai Ke in French at the same time: "Don't move, raise your hands!"
The old man facing the entrance of the cave was the first to see the two of them, and when he heard the shouting, he remained still, and a burly green man sitting on his left stood up suddenly, and drew the weapon from his waist.
It's a pity that no matter how fast he is, he is not as fast as Mai Ke's hidden weapon, swishing two wishful beads, one in the neck and the other in the wrist, and immediately loosen his hand and fall.
One of the guys sitting on the right hand was as thin as a monkey, his body did not move, but his hand was about to lightning, he took a bow from his belt, and put on a small but highly poisonous medicine arrow to shoot at Mai Ke. But he forgot that it was two people who came in, and Wen Fu was already staring at him.
As soon as his hand with the arrow was attached to the bowstring, a throwing knife came silently, and without even the slightest sound, his hand with the arrow broke off with the bowstring and fell to the ground.
Although the other three elders kept quiet, Mai Ke did not snub them, and they also had a spiritual bead for each person, making them fall asleep.
Then the two of them strode forward, one of them grabbed one of the Emerald Sect Master's arms, and said, As long as you honestly cooperate with our instructions, you will be able to save your life.
The old man nodded, then pointed to the others, and asked, "What about them?"
"And so they are. It's not just them, it's all the same, as long as you're honest and obedient. We are not aggressors like France. ”
The old man seemed relieved: "Okay! I'll listen to you!" (to be continued......)
