Chapter IV: The Massacre IV
I don't know how long later, the two of them suddenly heard a rhythmic sound from outside. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Zuo Han said happily, "Okay, this is Jinyiwei's code, we can go out." Zuo Han got up and opened the mechanism, and led Shangguan Hongyang out of the tunnel. When I got out of the hole, I saw a large group of lieutenants gathered together. They were very happy to see Zuo Han. Zuo Han asked, "Are all the people from the Sea Gang gone?"
"It's all gone, it's all gone. A hundred households named Zhang Tianquan replied first, "They didn't want to entangle with us, so they set a fire in the Drunken Immortal Building, and they dispersed in a hurry." We were worried about the safety of the Thousand Households, thinking that there was a hidden cellar in the Drunken Immortal Building, so we were busy fighting the fire and did not chase after it. Zuo Han saw that everyone was unkempt, and some people even burned their eyebrows and mustaches, so he hurriedly thanked him, "I have to thank you, brothers." Later, I will be the east, and please go to the Baume & Mercier Restaurant to eat and drink. When the lieutenants heard this, they quickly burst into cheers. Some people with sweet mouths also took this opportunity to talk to Zuo Han, and deliberately flattered him, saying that Zuo Qianhu has an excellent personality and high martial arts, and his future is limitless. Zuo Han was full of spring breeze, but he said in a loud voice, "Where, be polite." It can be seen that although Zuo Han is on the rise and has risen to the position of a thousand households, he is good at winning over relationships, uniting subordinates, and is very popular among colleagues and brothers.
Shangguan Hongyang was not in the mood to participate in the dinner party of the captains of the Jinyi Guard. He avoided everyone, walked up a nearby nameless hillside, and dug a pit by himself, preparing to bury Yu Jingying on the spot. At this time, it was dusk, the sun was setting, and the heartbroken man was at the end of the world. When Shangguan Hongyang was busy sweating, he suddenly saw that under the glow, Zuo Han was carrying a coffin and walked forward. Shangguan Hongyang understood, and hurriedly said thank you. Zuo Han waved his hand and said, "It's a trivial matter, why should Shangguan Shaoxia talk about it?" Shangguan said, "Shaoxia doesn't dare to be a young man, he calls you and me very angry." How old is Master Zuo, so it's better to ask me to carry it forward. Zuo Han smiled, "In that case, then I will change my name to Brother Carry Forward in the future." Regardless of his identity as a Jinyi Wei Qianhu, he personally dug pits, carried coffins, and filled soil, assisting Shangguan to carry forward his busy work. After making the grave circle, he took out incense, candles, paper money and other memorial objects from his arms. Shangguan Hongyang saw that Zuo Han had prepared him so thoughtfully, and while he was moved, he couldn't help but feel ashamed, he really hadn't thought about it so much. Shangguan Hongyang stood silently in front of Yu Jingying's grave for a long time, he recalled his short relationship with Yu Jingying, recalled her charming smile and fearless dedication, her once embraced and boldly confessed, and thought that he hadn't even had time to say I love you to her, and couldn't help but burst into tears.
Zuo Han waited until it was dark and Shangguan Hongyang's mood calmed down before he began to speak, "There is news that I think is necessary to tell you. Li Pinhuang and Li Baihu are very good, and he secretly followed the whereabouts of Komatsu Taro and a group of people before. It was found that most of the Japanese were unable to travel long distances, so they stopped in Seven Star Town, ready to rest for the night before leaving. Komatsu Taro and Eisaku Miyazawa rode overnight and galloped in the direction of Matsue. You have a good relationship with Shinhide Koizumi at the Matsue headquarters of the Sea Gang, so you must know what that means. ”
Shangguan Hongyang nodded and said, "It seems that the Sun Moon Divine Sect Xiang Wan, Bald Pen Weng and other people have already made up their minds to help the Songjiang headquarters on the sea." ”
Zuo Han said, "You're right. The Sun and Moon God Sect dragons and snakes are mixed, and they don't care about it. However, the internal situation of the Sea Gang is still clear. Although the headquarters of the Maritime Gang Songjiang has the original sin, in recent years, there have been obvious signs of landing and whitewashing. From the point of view of public order, it is much safer to keep the Matsue headquarters than to let the stubborn Toyo headquarters continue to sit on the throne. What I mean is that I want to divide and attack them, first exterminate the gang of Japanese robbers in Seven Star Town, and then go to Songjiang to help the Songjiang headquarters on the sea. I don't know how to carry forward the brother's will?"
Shangguan Hongyang groaned in his heart, this Zuo Han is so powerful, not to mention the emotional investment in advance, but also to have something to say. If he didn't go with him to Qixing Town to exterminate the Japanese Invaders, he would definitely not help him help Songjiang. But considering that Zuo Han's proposal was very beneficial to both parties, Shangguan Hongyang was also willing to agree, and he echoed and said, "Lord Zuo's arrangement is good. Today, among the group of people in the Drunken Immortal Building, Komatsu Taro and Eisaku Miyazawa have the highest martial arts, and there is only one Endo left, I am afraid that it will be embarrassing. If you don't take this opportunity to wipe out the living forces of the Sea Gang's Oriental Headquarters in one fell swoop, when will it be? As for how to act, it is all up to Lord Zuo's orders. Zuo Han was quite satisfied with Shangguan Hongyang's statement. He nodded, "In that case, without further ado, let's go." The two of them walked down the hill, and someone had already led the horses and waited by the roadside. Zuo Han said, "Everyone has had dinner, and they have already trotted all the way to go." A few of us on horseback, we should be able to catch up soon. Shangguan Hongyang turned over his horse and glanced back at Yu Jingying's tomb, in the thick night, he couldn't see anything clearly, but he felt that there were two lines of clear tears, which were rolling down his face silently.
