In contrast to the exterior, the interior of the small fishing village is well defended, not only have the dilapidated and half-collapsed houses been repaired, but even the outer walls of many of the houses are several feet higher than before, and the houses are connected by waterways, as if they were a water barracks extending in all directions.

Located in a courtyard in the deepest part of the village, several burly men are standing in front of the door of the hall, and among them are sitting two men dressed as scholars, although one of them is dressed like a scholar, but his body exudes a strong reckless atmosphere, at this time he is putting a white piece on the chessboard, so that the opponent's black son is completely divided and surrounded, and the killing has been completed, which makes him show a smug smile: "Brother Cheng, I won this game again." ”

The middle-aged scholar sitting opposite him had a worried face, and he just smiled reluctantly when he saw this: "The second leader is really superb in chess, with exquisite layout, and he is convinced to lose in the next game." As he spoke, he threw the sunspot in his hand onto the chessboard, signaling himself to admit defeat: "Presumably, this battle against the Jiangzhou official army should also be in the calculation of the second leader." ”

"My plan is important, but if you hadn't brought the news earlier, we wouldn't have been able to win as easily as before. Therefore, if you talk about merit, becoming a brother is the first. Just wait for my brother to return triumphantly, I will send Brother Cheng to leave here...... "Jiang Shihu, the second leader of the Fierce Jiao gang of water bandits, is Jiang Dalong's own brother, but unlike Brother Nai's fierce and daring to fight, he is better at using tricks, it can be said that the Fierce Jiao gang can have today's situation, more than half of it is the credit of his planning behind the scenes."

But just as Jiang Shihu said this, there was a sudden exclamation outside, and there was a bit of panic and crying in his tone: "The second leader is not good, the big leader was seriously injured by the officers and soldiers, and we were defeated......" Before the words fell, several people had already carried Jiang Dalong and stumbled to the door, and then crashed in.

"Whoa......" Jiang Shihu flicked his hand, and the chessboard in front of him fell directly to the ground. But at this time, he didn't care about such details, and hurriedly rushed to his brother, and shouted urgently: "What the hell is going on? How could my brother be so seriously injured? When he said this, he had already clearly seen the short spear that penetrated deep into Jiang Dalong's body, and he saw that he was in a cold sweat, and shouted to his subordinates urgently: "Why don't you help the leader pull out the spear to stop the bleeding?" ”

At this time, a subordinate with some experience in healing injuries had also been called over, and he was also frightened when he saw this situation, and after hearing Jiang Shihu's words, he hurriedly shouted: "Don't be in a hurry to pull out the short spear, otherwise the wounds on the big leader's body will only be more serious, and you must first wrap the surrounding wounds before you can pull out the spear." ”

Jiang Shihu nodded at this time: "It's up to you to call the shots here." Say, what the hell is going on? But the officers and soldiers have already taken precautions and broken our arrangement? The latter sentence was naturally said to the subordinates who brought Jiang Dalong back, but as he spoke, his eyes had already fallen on the man surnamed Cheng very unkindly.

Only then did he react, and he hurriedly defended himself: "Second leader, I dare to swear that this must have nothing to do with our cooperation, we have all cooperated closely for the past year, and it is impossible to suddenly regret it this time." And, haven't I stayed here all the time? ”

Jiang Shihu took a deep breath, ignored his defense, and continued to stare at his subordinates who were already silent, and shouted in a low voice: "Say!" ”

On the surface, the leader of this fierce water bandit is Jiang Dalong, but in fact, their backbone, which makes his subordinates feel even more awe-inspiring, is the second leader Jiang Shihu, who has low martial arts skills but is far-sighted. Therefore, when he opened his mouth, everyone present was shocked, and the few subordinates who were staring at him woke up like a dream, and hurriedly explained the battle that happened near the island.

After saying this, Jiang Shihu's face became more and more ugly: "After only a few months, the official army of Jiangzhou has been very different, and they have been able to win in such an unfavorable situation, and they can still kill and injure my brother......" After his eyes flickered a few times, he quickly made a judgment: "I'm afraid this is not only because the other party is well-trained, but also because someone has guessed that they will encounter such an unfavorable situation, so they will not be chaotic and deal with it calmly!" ”

"This ...... This can't be ......" The man surnamed Cheng has always been hanging in his heart, and now when he heard this, he immediately objected: "We will never leak the news...... It's Sun Tu, it must be the new team trainer Sun Tu who is making trouble in it. In the past few months, he has been training his village soldiers, and this time he also brought the village soldiers with him, which is the only difference from the past...... "Obviously, he is trying his best to defend himself, otherwise if he really makes these water bandits suspect that he has set up a situation to harm them, I am afraid that his fate will be miserable."

Jiang Shihu frowned, but he didn't pay attention to the other party, but continued to ask his subordinates: "Since you have fallen into such a desperate situation, why can you easily get out and come back?" ”

"The officers and soldiers are still trapped by the traps we have arranged, so they can't catch up, which gives us a chance to escape."

"No, given the situation at the time, they would have forcibly pursued us even if they couldn't move, and this was a great opportunity for them to wipe us out." Jiang Shihu muttered to himself there, and after a while, his face had changed greatly: "It's not good, this is a strategy to capture and indulge, I'm afraid what they want is this result, just to find here...... I can't wait any longer, I give an order at once, everyone gets on the boat, and leave here immediately! ”

"Huh?" Everyone present was stunned by his words, because in the eyes of everyone, this fishing village is an extremely secret place, how can it be found by the government?

"If you don't give the order quickly, I'm afraid it will be too late, and we only have half a day's work at most." Jiang Shihu knew that this place was not too far from Jiangzhou City, and once the official army attacked again, now that his brother was seriously injured, he really couldn't defend this nest when he lost his troops.

Seeing that he was really angry, those water bandits didn't dare to say more, and immediately someone hurriedly ran out and rushed to convey the order to evacuate this place, but the man surnamed Cheng was completely stunned: "Second leader, you are ......"

"I have two speculations, one of which is that your people have betrayed us for self-preservation, and that is why this is the case; The second is that the group training named Sun Tu is really smart enough, and he has already noticed that someone in the government is colluding with us, so he will plan it. But either way, we can't stay here for long, and you, I won't keep you alive! Jiang Shihu waved his hand as he spoke: "Take him down for me, and when we leave, drown him here, so that the Jiangzhou government can know my murderous methods!" ”

Before the other party could react, several bandits had already quickly pounced, grabbed him with his backhand, and dragged the person out despite his struggle and shouting. At the same time, a miserable scream suddenly came from the side, Jiang Shihu hurriedly turned his head, and saw that the subordinate pulled the short spear out of Jiang Dalong's body, and a stream of blood spurted out, so painful that Jiang Dalong, who had already fallen into a coma, let out a terrible scream.

Seeing this, Jiang Shihu's body was also trembling, but he still quickly calmed down and ordered: "Hurry up and stop the bleeding for the big leader, and we will leave here." ”

But at this moment, there was a sudden loud drum and trumpet sound outside, and then two minions ran over in a panic, and when they came to the door, they shouted: "The second leader is not good, the officer and the army...... The officers and soldiers suddenly killed us and blocked our way out of the village......"

"What? How fast did it come? "It's Jiang Shihu, and he was a little dumbfounded at this moment. Although he guessed that he had been countercalculated by the officials and soldiers, he didn't expect the other party to come so quickly. After a moment, he thought of something: "How many centaurs are coming?" ”

"More than a dozen small boats, the strength should be equal to ours."

"It's not the main force of the official army, we still have a chance." Jiang Shihu gritted his teeth and said: "We rush strongly, as long as we break through the defense line of the official army, we will have a chance to escape!" As he spoke, he looked at several of his subordinates who were still bandaging his brother: "Take the big leader, and we will break through!" Then he took the lead and went out, looking particularly determined.

But just as these people gathered and wanted to rush out, there was a sudden sound of arrows breaking through the air in front of the village, and when they subconsciously looked up, they saw rockets in the sky cutting through the arc in the air, flying towards all the buildings in this fishing village.

Most of the houses in this village are made of grass and trees, and although they are near the water, the weather has been hot and dry lately, so they quickly burst into flames and spread to the front and back. And those water bandits were even more shocked when they saw this scene, and they exclaimed again and again.

"What a ruthless tactic, they are going to kill us all here at all costs!" Jiang Shihu's heart had sunk to the bottom, but soon, he raised his head again: "Brothers, life and death are here, we have no way out, follow me and kill out!" As he spoke, he completely ignored the dense number of rockets flying in front of him, and rushed forward.

The other bandits also knew that there was no other choice, so they immediately followed behind their second leader, howling and rushing straight to the front of the village, and some even jumped directly into the village boat and drove the boat forward.

At this time, outside the fishing village, at the head of the small boat lined up, Yang Zhizheng, who was in armor, kept pointing his knife at the fishing village in front of him, and shouted: "Give me arrows, shoot all the arrows to the thieves' lair!" ”

With his roar, more rockets flew towards the fishing village in batches, and the two hundred villagers had all turned into crossbowmen by this time, fully showing the results of their training in the past two months......
