Chapter 268: Zhuangzi in the Countryside
Chapter 268 Zhuangzi in the countryside
Situ Zheng finally came with a few soldiers who had been drawn out and ran with the radio on their backs.
Lin Xiao glared at him: "The action is too slow!" ”
“……”
Situ Zheng, who was still panting, looked embarrassed, it's already very fast, okay, isn't this manpower tight, you have to draw people one post at a time.
Li Tao smiled when he saw this, and patted Situ Zheng's shoulder, which was considered comforting, it was indeed Lin Xiao who was anxious, so he felt that Situ was grinding, in fact, it was only a few minutes later.
"Let's go,"
Lin Xiao pulled out his pistol, pulled the bolt, turned his head to Li Tao and said, "Be careful, be on guard." ”
"Captain," Zhang Chenfeng said hurriedly when he saw this, "It's enough to have Li here here, I'll go with me......"
"Master, take me......"
Before Lin Xiao could speak, that Xiao Li, who didn't know when, also ran out and begged urgently.
"Let him follow......" Li Tao also echoed, after all, Xiao Li recognized the way.
"Okay, okay, let's go."
Lin Xiao couldn't resist them, so he had to agree.
……
A few people trotted all the way, and soon came to the intersection of the street where the fire was exchanged, only to hear the sound of "bang bang bang" on the street not far away, almost all of which were old-fashioned muskets.
Walking a short distance along the eaves of the street, a soldier on the roof had already seen them, and after whispering a few times to get in touch, a soldier quickly touched over and answered Lin Xiao and they quietly climbed into the backyard of the "Baotai Commercial Bank" from a courtyard wall......
It turned out that not long after the exchange of fire on the side of the warehouse, a group of foreigners' regular troops came to the side of the trading house in a menacing manner, saying that they had received a report that there were dangerous elements of unknown origin here, shouting to go in and search.
Naturally, it was impossible for the business house guys and bodyguards to agree, the two sides couldn't hold each other, and not long after the quarrel, they put on a posture to rush hard.
Although the commanders at all levels were not there, how could they abandon their duties, the special combat team members who had originally dispersed the vigilance, under the command of the team leader, quickly shrunk, seized the key points and opened fire decisively, knocking down several people in an instant.
The group of foreign soldiers did not want to suffer the immediate loss, and forced their way into the shops of several commercial houses across the street, and set up their guns in this direction.
The soldiers were few in number, and they did not know the enemy's situation, so they did not take the initiative to attack, and under the command of the squad leader, they went to the upper room and blocked the door, and confronted them with danger.
In this way, the guns over there were lively, but basically no one could be hit, but although this side rarely fired, and only fired a shot after taking a cold shot, it kept hitting those soldiers who were not well hidden.
"Xiao Li, take me to see your shopkeeper."
After asking the reason for the incident, Lin Xiao saw Xiao Li running out of the back hall and stopped him.
"Master, my master...... Lord Qu...... Ran. Xiao Li said with a panicked face.
"Huh? Ran away? Lin Xiao's face was full of astonishment, "Where did you go?" ”
"Say yes...... Before the war began, my lord took the adults and hid in Zhuangzi in the countryside. Xiao Li Ne said.
"This ......"
Lin Xiao's face sank, and he didn't know what to say.
Why is it extraneous and extraneous, it's really troublesome, what if there is a three-long and two-short?
"Report to the commander-in-chief, it was the idea of the shopkeeper Li, and Master Qu ordered him to evacuate through the back door,"
The squad leader, who was busy beckoning the new soldiers to occupy the battle position, hurriedly came over to report when he heard this, "It is said that it is very safe over there, and I sent ten soldiers to escort it." ”
"Ordered by Lord Qu?" Lin Xiao's face softened slightly.
No wonder, there are a little fewer fighters here.
This Lord Qu really doesn't know much about military affairs, and there are few guards and soldiers, so it is very embarrassing to divide the troops rashly in this case.
In case the Portuguese governor sent people to the manor to encircle and suppress again, wouldn't he be divided and surrounded, and passively defended everywhere?
"Zhang Chenfeng!" The situation was a bit complicated, Lin Xiao immediately shouted.
"Here!"
"Call Yu Cheng immediately, ask him to bring someone over for reinforcements, and copy this group of people to me."
"Yes! Call now! Zhang Chenfeng was full of energy and replied loudly.
"Also, contact the big ship, let your reconnaissance battalion, come up two companies, land immediately, before dawn, be sure to control the dock and the warehouse, since you want to fight, come simply,"
Lin Xiao said fiercely, "Your third reconnaissance company stayed on the Qinzhou, and the guard company stayed on the Longsheng, on first-level alert. ”
"Yes!"
"You command here, I'll go to the manor to find Master Qu first, and after copying them, you will rush over immediately, and there is a new mission."
"Understood!"
"Stay safe, let's go."
In the end, Lin Xiao whispered another command, and then turned his head and shouted, "Situ Zheng, let's go, go to the manor!" ”
"Yes!"
……
The Macau Peninsula is really small, Jack Lee's rural Zhuangzi, just in the northwest corner of the peninsula, and between the North Bay Pier in the northeast corner, there are only more than five miles of road, but there is only a gate in between.
Since there are several hilly hills in the northern part of the peninsula, the northern wall of the Buddha is built between several mountain passes, and the area around the northern part of the mountain is considered to be outside the city.
Here, there are several villages inhabited by the aboriginal people, which are still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Ming government, but the gate can protrude far to the north and be built on the stem of the lotus that leads to the mainland.
There is a fort built in the gate, and there are also Franc soldiers stationed there.
Therefore, at present, the entire Macao Peninsula is like a country within a country, and the primitive villages outside the city are like urban villages, and the Chinese and Portuguese forces are intertwined, and no one cares about anyone.
Lin Xiao took Situ Zheng and a few soldiers, led by Xiao Li, and soon rushed to the door of Jack Li's Zhuangzi in the dark.
Zhuangzi is in the middle of the village, and it is heavily guarded, with many figures patrolling the gate and the village wall with lanterns, and it seems that Jack Lee has hired a lot of bodyguards here.
No wonder as soon as there was a stir, he was in a hurry to encourage Lord Qu to hide here, which was indeed much safer than in the shop.
"This person is quite clever, afraid of death, but has a trick of being afraid of death." Lin Xiao said secretly.
Entering the gate of the main house, led by a dark-skinned little slave, the group passed through the front hall, and then passed through a long corridor that was half light and half dark, and went straight back.
At the exit of the corridor is a neatly repaired back garden with a fountain pool.
The garden area is not small, in the middle is a small fountain, dripping with water droplets, the ground around the fountain is paved with colorful floor tiles, inlaid with various patterns, surrounded by lush flowers and trees, there is a delicate and small pavilion in the garden, in which a circle of lanterns is lit.
The walls and houses around the garden are towering, isolating everything from the outside world and creating a sense of tranquility.
Jack Li was already waiting at the door of the back hall to greet him, and when he saw Lin Xiao, he immediately showed an embarrassed but polite smile, accompanied him again and again, and pretended to kneel and bow to Hou Ye.
It seems that this person has already inquired about Lin Xiao's identity.
Lin Xiao saw that Qu Shiyun was unscathed, so he didn't say anything more, and waved his hand expressionlessly, even if he had said hello, he was not polite.
Jack Lee's clothes were bright and magnificent, and the Lord Qu who was sitting in the hall was reflected in his gray clothes and his spirits were low.
What businessmen are not allowed to wear silk, in this era, especially in this place where foreign Yi is in power, rich is the master, and he has long lost the ancestral teachings of Taizu to Java.
Jack Lee was very attentive, and immediately asked them to "change their clothes" first, saying that they had arranged a supper to wash the dust for the adults.
The so-called changing clothes is to go to the toilet to wash the handles and remove some of the smell of gunsmoke on the body.
