After Yang Kai looked at it from afar, he said: "My lord, it's Niu Baihu and they are here!" ”

Chen Xiaoting nodded, and then said, "Get ready to go!" ”

They came from the capital and were equipped with horses, although they were not as good as the war horses used in the army, but they also greatly improved their mobility.

Coupled with the crossbow machine held by Qianhu, as well as the armor and saber that the Jinyi Guard is equipped with, the equipment of their party is not much better than that of the Jing'an army.

It would be a pity if such a force was not taken to the front line and not seen the so-called Japanese pirates with their own eyes.

In fact, Chen Xiaoting is still planning to harvest the heads of the Japanese invaders, and it would be better if he could mix up a little bit of military exploits.

As Jinyi Guards, their work can only serve the emperor, and no matter how much they do, it is difficult to get the approval of the courtiers.

Although the approval of the courtiers is not so important, Chen Xiaoting is unwilling to be a single husband, so it is worth getting even a little positive evaluation from the court.

And what he can do is only to make some military exploits, so that the courtiers can pinch their noses and admit that he Chen Xiaoting has meritorious service to the society of the Ming Dynasty.

"My lord, I have arrived under my order, and I ask you to send it!" After Niu Jingyun arrived, he jumped off the horse and came to report the situation.

Chen Xiaoting didn't explain too much, then turned over and said, "Let's go...... Let's go! ”

…………

Departed from Nan'an Mansion in the morning, and it was not until the afternoon that Chen Xiaoting entered the territory of Fuyuan Mansion.

The Japanese robbers found this time were inside Fuyuan Mansion, and in order to ensure that the encirclement and suppression were foolproof, all units of the Jing'an Army were rushing here.

Although the strength of the army stationed in Fuyuan Province was not much different from that of the Japanese Kou, and even won in terms of equipment and supplies, no one dared to attack rashly.

The Japanese could lose ten or twenty times, but the imperial court could not afford to lose once, and losing was not only a huge blow to morale, but also a huge expense to pay for and rebuild the army.

Therefore, in recent years, the suppression of the Japanese has formed a conventional rule, that is, to gather at least three times the number of troops before Wu Guorui is allowed to attack.

This was safe, but it greatly weakened the mobility and creativity of the imperial army, and also lost many important fighters.

But there is no way, Wu Guorui has no choice, he can sit in the position of governor because he is doing things safely.

After arriving at the front line of Fuyuan, Chen Xiaoting obviously felt that there were a lot more soldiers patrolling.

Because the arrival of the Japanese will inevitably lead to a large number of people being homeless, and it will also affect the production of this prefecture, and at the same time, it will also breed displaced people.

And this is the greatest harm of the Japanese pirates, and the harm caused by the destruction of maritime trade is relatively small.

"My lord, let's go into the city to see Governor Wu?" Yang Kai asked at this time, and if you go further, you will pass the Fuyuan Mansion City.

"The report I just got said that the Japanese are twenty miles ahead, let's go to the mountain in front and have a look!" Chen Xiaoting said indifferently.

Although they were marching on a small scale, Chen Xiaoting also released more than a dozen scouts, so his sources were no less than Wu Guorui's.

How to go and where to go is Chen Xiaoting's decision, so no one can object at this moment.

So they rushed to the distant hillside, where there were only two places in the city of Fuyuanfu, and it was impossible for the Japanese army to be so close.

Soon, the group climbed the hillside, and their vision suddenly opened up.

Twenty miles of land may sound like a long way away, but Chen Xiaoting, who was standing on the hillside, could already see the station of the Japanese Kou.

The simple military tents are scattered across the field, and it can be seen that there is a certain order in their arrangement, which refreshes Chen Xiaoting's impression of the Japanese Invaders.

At this time, a lieutenant exclaimed, "My lord, there seems to be someone over there!" ”

Looking in the direction of the captain's finger, he saw that under the hillside, there were three people moving sneaky, and he didn't find Chen Xiaoting and the others on the other side of the hillside.

Although these three men were serving the people, they were all armed and looked extremely suspicious.

"Send a team and get them back!" Chen Xiaoting ordered, he thought these people were spies released by the Japanese Kou.

Niu Jingyun immediately ordered, and a small flag led his lieutenants to gallop towards the foot of the mountain.

Their team, not to mention the huge advantage in numbers, is even more equipped to crush the Japanese below.

On the hillside, Chen Xiaoting saw the captains rushing down, although those spies fled separately, how could they compare to the speed of the horses.

I thought that I would be caught, but after these people were caught up, they actually drew their knives and confronted the captain in front of them.

Chen Xiaoting stood far away and couldn't hear what the would-be robbers were saying, only hearing the roar of "chirping" from time to time.

As if to complete some kind of ritual, two of them actually rushed towards the captain who surrounded him, and one of the captains directly pulled the hanging knife in a nervous manner.

At such a close range, four of the seven or eight arrows fired together hit the target and entered the chests of the two men.

But these two people are really fierce, even if they are hit by arrows in the chest and abdomen, they still hold knives and kill the captains.

The lieutenants fought back, and there was no need for them to go toe-to-toe with these two.

Sure enough, after rushing out of a dozen steps, the two fell to the ground one after another, but they still had a tendency to crawl forward.

Eventually, the two fell to the ground and were controlled by the captains, and now only the last of the widows was still standing.

With a "snap", this person actually threw his weapon on the ground, and then knelt on the ground and cried: "I surrender, I surrender!" ”

Hearing him speak with a local Jiangnan accent shocked the captains' jaws, but then they took this person under control.

When the three of them were brought to Chen Xiaoting, the two true widows who had been hit by the arrows were already having difficulty breathing, and they couldn't even scold in their mouths.

But even if these two people are intact, it will be difficult to produce useful information without translation.

So Chen Xiaoting asked the person who surrendered: "How can there be a person like you in the Japanese Kou?" ”

"The adults spare their lives, the villain is also a thief's den who was forced to enter, and the villain has never done anything to conceive!" The man who was caught knelt on the ground and kowtowed.

On the contrary, in the process of kowtowing, a few ingots of silver fell out of his arms, as well as some jewelry.

This is a slap in the face, if these things were not snatched, how could he have them on him?

Chen Xiaoting didn't have time to delve into these things, so he only listened to him: "I've always heard that there are real and fake Japanese among the Japanese people, and today it is confirmed!" ”

After all, there are only so many people who came from the Wa Kingdom, but they have not been destroyed for more than ten years, so it is very reasonable to have fake Wako supplements.

"How many of you are here this time? How many of them are real? How many days is enough food? ”

Three questions in a row, and the fake widow who was caught could only answer the first two questions.

I only heard him say: "Back to my lord, this time we have 4,000 people, including more than 1,000 Zhenwei...... The rest of the villains don't know! ”

There were only 1,000 real widows, which greatly surprised Chen Xiaoting's expectations.

"Four thousand, you have so many ships? Sending you all ashore? Chen Xiaoting asked again.

The fake widow who was caught replied: "Back to the adult, only those real widows need to go ashore, and we have always been on the shore!" ”

Carrying a hoe in peacetime, and raising a knife in wartime...... This sounds ironic, these people changed from the common people of the Ming Dynasty to the Japanese Kou, which is a matter of thought.

"Take it back and interrogate it carefully!" Chen Xiaoting said indifferently, I don't complain about this trip today.

Next, he was going to Fuyuan City to see Wu Guorui.
