Chapter 552 Tongue

Didn't you catch a single live mouth?

Looking at the pearl treasures seized on the table, He Shouxin frowned and asked.

They scattered, faster than a rabbit,

Yang Yuan shook his head and said with a wry smile, There are only more than ten of us, and we are blind in the dark, and we don't know where to chase

oh

He Shouxin nodded, he didn't mean to blame him, are you sure that the people who ran away were carrying burdens?

I didn't see it too clearly,

Yang Yuan shook his head, but they were all dressed the same, and they wouldn't just carry these few talents.

Well

He Shouxin thought and muttered, who can slip away at night with so many belongings?

It can't be Ma Jinbao, right?

Yang Yuan reacted instantly, slapped his thigh and shouted.

The black lights are blind, and ordinary people want to go out of the city, but it is not easy to pass the level of the soldiers guarding the city.

Most likely,

He Shouxin looked at him and said worriedly, if he was really shelled by his golden cicada, it would not be good

He doesn't want so many of his subordinates?

Yang Yuan was still a little unconvinced.

Hard

He Shouxin shook his head, frowned and said, this guy may have some tricks

At this moment, the signal corps came in and reported that the reconnaissance team near Guanyin Mountain had caught a few tongues that had slipped out of the city, and one of the leaders said that there was an urgent matter and that he wanted to hand over a letter to the commander of the army.

Search for the letter and bring it.

He Shouxin is not interested in listening to the muttering of the people at the moment, in case it is to talk to him about the affairs of the people, he has no time to waste.

He said he had to submit it in person.

The correspondent added that he said he was Mr. Gu's man

He Shouxin was stunned, since the person who came claimed to be Mr. Gu's person, he paid attention to it.

Well, invite him in,

He Shouxin instructed, in addition, go and ask Mr. Gu to come over quickly!

Due to the urgency of the military situation, when it was just dark, Wan Shouqi set off with three strong men.

After wading through one stinking ditch after another, and sneaking through the wild grass more than one person high, they reached the edge of the ditch.

After a group of patrolling soldiers had gone away, they dived across the river, climbed out of the ruined city walls, and quickly disappeared into the darkness, carrying the stench all the way to the west.

After a little bit of a mile of blind search, they were near Guanyin Mountain, and they were caught by a team of scouts

This team of scouts is from the second platoon and sixth squad of the guard company, and the squad leader is named Sun Zhencai.

Sun Zhen is a native of Guangxi, he was conscripted into the army among the refugees in Qinzhou, because he is tall and tall, which is relatively rare among southerners, with good military literacy and a very flexible mind, and now he has become a squad leader.

However, the guard company did not participate in many vicious battles, and his sixth squad also had few achievements, except for a collective third-class merit in Loushan Pass, there was no great military merit, until this time he left the commander-in-chief and attacked Yangzhou City alone.

This made Sun Zhencai feel refreshed, and he could finally go into battle to kill the enemy and make great contributions, so that he would be promoted to become rich in the future, and his wife and son would be sealed.

Unexpectedly, after landing, until the city of Yangzhou, Sun Zhencai did not catch a battle, and almost walked all the way by boat with a gun on his back, which wiped out most of his heart for meritorious service.

When he arrived in Yangzhou, he heard that tens of thousands of Tartars had gathered in the city, and there was bound to be a big battle, so Sun Zhencai was very excited and felt that his opportunity to make meritorious contributions had arrived.

Unexpectedly, just yesterday, the company commander only took three platoons and a machine gun squad to block the west gate, and the second platoon where he was was actually sent to the south of the city, and accompanied the Ming army brigade to cruise outside the Rujiang Gate to show off his might, and he didn't have a single shot.

After listening to the roar of the ship's guns all day, Sun Zhen, who was depressed, finally got the good news that Deputy Company Commander Yang actually took them to the aid of Ximen!

This made Sun Zhencai excited.

Sure enough, as soon as he came to the West Gate, the second platoon where he was was immediately received the task - to break it into pieces and go to the north of the city to carry out reconnaissance and vigilance tasks.

However, his luck was still not very good, Deputy Company Commander Yang did not take them six squads to the north gate, but left them at Guanyin Mountain to meet - this is the commanding height of the whole city, it is reasonable to be a place where soldiers must fight, it is said that in the daytime, this place can see half of Yangzhou City.

Sun Zhencai did not dare to slack off, although there were only a dozen or so soldiers under his command, he still divided the soldiers into three reconnaissance groups, patrolled along the cordon, and brought two soldiers to squat at the foot of the mountain, paying special attention to monitoring the movements around Song Jiacheng.

According to the guide, there is a secret passage out of the city, and there are usually thieves in and out, and at the moment, there will be a Tartar official sneaking out from here.

Sun Zhencai and the two warriors lay quietly in the grass, staring motionlessly at the corner of the city wall not far away.

Strangely, the Tartars were not well defended on this side, and about every half an hour, a group of Tartars patrolling the city would pass by with torches.

Sun Zhencai was a little puzzled, although he had no right to interfere with the command of his superiors, but in his opinion, it would not be very easy to enter the city from this place, carry out a night attack, and go straight to the Governor's Mansion to capture Ma Jinbao alive

The midsummer night was really uncomfortable, Sun Zhencai, who was fully armed, was already soaked, and the beads of sweat that kept flowing from his forehead were almost covering his eyes, and he secretly cursed this sultry ghost weather.

Not only that, but they also have to endure mosquito and insect bites.

But the strict training and military discipline in peacetime made them just not move at all, and they didn't take a breath of air.

This is the military discipline of the captive army, and the task is the task, no matter how important it is, as long as the order is received, it must be carried out meticulously and to the letter.

Suddenly, several dark shadows came into his eyes

Sun Zhencai was happy in his heart, quietly made a few gestures, and then took the soldier to touch it.

A set of neat and standard capture actions is the specialty of the soldiers of the guard company, the other party is four people, and they were held down by the three of them, Sun Zhen opened the bow left and right, and one person dragged down two.

However, just as Sun Zhencai was frowning with his wet and slightly smelly tongue, the other party suddenly shook his arms and said a bird language that he couldn't understand, which made his mood more and more depressed, and scolded him sharply: Be honest!

That person was none other than Wan Shouqi.

Although Wan Shouqi is a scholar, he can only speak Yangzhou dialect, as a Guangxi native Sun Zhencai can't understand half a sentence, in addition to the new words commonly used in the army, he only understands the native dialect of his hometown, not to mention Yangzhou, even if he runs to Guangzhou, he can't understand it.

Because the new language is spoken in the army, as a soldier, he has little contact with the outside world, so naturally he knows little about the local dialect in the Jiangnan area.

At this time, Wan Shouqi became more and more excited, and he also made a move to break free, Sun Zhen was in a hurry, kicked another person unconscious, specifically dealt with this person, cleanly cut his hands, tore off his trouser belt, and tied it up.

On the side, the other two warriors had already tied their tongues, and by the way, they woke up the prisoner who had been kicked unconscious, and they pulled them up, and they were about to take them to the temple of Guanyin Mountain to watch them.

Wan Shouqi stood up, remembered Wang Luo's instructions, turned his heart sideways, didn't care about the pain, shook his shoulders desperately, and shouted at Sun Zhencai to see the chief.

However, Sun Zhencai still couldn't understand a word, he saw that this person didn't know what to do, he didn't obey the management, and he was going to use coercive means according to the rules - it was not okay to stab him directly with a bayonet, but the butt was ready-made, and he was given a butt when he turned the gun around.

Wan Shouqi was so strong that he fell to the ground with a pop, and the guys beside him exclaimed in surprise, and suddenly glared and scolded.

Unexpectedly, Wan Shouqi was quite entrusted by others and loyal to the spirit, so he immediately got up again after receiving this rifle butt, and was shouting again.

Sun Zhencai was annoyed at this time, and immediately ordered: Come, pull a handful of grass and plug his mouth!
