Chapter 164: Stalemate
Li Meng nodded at Shopkeeper Zheng and the rest of the people, and shouted at his subordinates:
"Shout outside, if you want their little marquis to live, keep your mouth shut for me!"
All the servants of the little marquis in the courtyard were tied up sturdily, and Li Meng seemed to be carrying a chicken, carrying the little marquis into the eyebrow tower and going directly to the second floor.
Looking at this little Marquis Feng with a bloody face, the two little maids who were trembling on the second floor were screaming in fright, and they were glared at fiercely by Li Meng, and immediately covered their mouths and collapsed on the ground, not daring to move.
On the contrary, Gu Hengbo was still a little bold, but he also dodged towards the corner, for fear that this strongman and evil man would do something rude.
"Don't get in the way here, take your maid downstairs."
Li Meng said in a deep voice, these words made Gu Hengbo angry again, he was afraid but he forgot a lot, thinking that Miss Ben was so annoying to you, but at this time, he didn't dare to lose his temper, and hurriedly ran downstairs with two maids, Li Meng tied up the little marquis, checked the upstairs room from beginning to end, and after making sure that there was no one, he did something at the top of the stairs.
Carrying the little Hou Ye to the window, he kicked open the window, the short knife was already on the neck of the little Hou Ye, Li Meng shouted loudly outside:
"If you don't want this bastard to die, let me retreat!!"
Li Meng's body was hidden behind the little marquis, with a short knife against his neck, observing the outside very covertly. The shouts of the soldiers in the courtyard just now had silenced the outside, but this time the window was opened, but it was a small sensation, looking down from the upper floor, the streets outside the courtyard were already full of soldiers, and everyone who could see the window was looking up at this side.
However, it is really difficult to see a person's face clearly at this distance, Li Meng also thought of this problem, and ordered loudly to the following:
"Get some of this bastard's minions out there. Tell them if this Hou Ye is in my hands. ”
The family members of the Feng Mansion below definitely didn't go out from the door, they were directly grabbed by a few people and thrown out of the wall.
After a short time, the identity of Li Meng's hand had already been confirmed, and the generals outside shouted loudly. Let his men be quiet, the soldiers on the street are silent, but in the upstairs courtyard near the neighborhood and opposite the door, there are many men and women who are full of curiosity and look around.
The soldiers outside also tried it just now, but the back of the courtyard wall was guarded, and if it was really a strong attack, it would be exposed as soon as possible. And the eyebrow tower happens to be in the middle of the courtyard, as long as it alarms the upstairs, no one can afford this responsibility.
Several of the officers in charge went to a secluded place, where they discussed in a low voice:
"You bastard, this kind of thing is called Lao Tzu to bring his brothers to help, what the hell is going on?"
After saying this, the rest of the people were angry and complaining, and the officer who was complained about had a wry smile on his face, and said apologetically:
"The temper of the little demon king in our house, it's not that my brothers don't know. I thought that bringing everyone here was to make some wine money for everyone, who would have thought that this was the situation. ”
"Feng Zhong, you dog killer, you are about to ask people to withdraw, do you want to give your master's life here, and take people away quickly!!"
The little marquis's sharp voice spread very clearly in such a quiet environment, and the faces of the generals discussed below were even more weird, and Feng Zhong's face was pale and very embarrassed, and the master of his own family was shouting like this. In the future, I am afraid that the face of leading troops will be gone.
Although he didn't dare to react, someone next to him spat directly on the ground and scolded disdainfully:
"Look at his virtue, since your young master is talking, let's go!"
Feng Zhong was in a dilemma there. But a man on the side said in a deep voice:
"If you don't come. It's nothing this time, if we come and leave. The responsibility for this matter will fall on the brothers, listen to the few people who came out, there are 200 people in the courtyard, these people have a basis for action, not a means on the rivers and lakes, this kind of person appeared in the center of Nanjing, caused some trouble, and in the end it was still blamed on us. ”
That Feng Zhong originally heard the little marquis upstairs shouting, he was already preparing to retreat first, after hearing this, he was also cautious, he had also led the troops for a long time, since he had calmed down, he also had an idea, looked around, and said:
"Lao Huang is right, there are too many idlers here, and they have dispersed them, let's go up to the tree and take a closer look."
The reason why Li Meng let the little marquis shout at the top of his voice was that he wanted to try his luck, but he didn't expect any effect, and he saw that the officers and soldiers wearing different colors below began to rush towards the surrounding courtyard, and began to disperse the idlers, and for a while, chickens and dogs jumped. Li Meng's heart was a little heavy, and it seemed that the other party was going to move seriously.
You can see the place nearby, not the pavilion opposite, but a few big trees planted on the edge of the yard, the height of these books is higher than this eyebrow tower, the trunk and branches are thick, covering the eyebrow tower, it is very elegant. But the branches stretched upward, and the distance from the eyebrow tower was really very close.
Seeing that a few officers had gone up to a few trees outside, Li Meng called out a few of his subordinates, loaded the short guns with ammunition, blew up the fire medium, and stared there.
At the moment, no matter inside or outside, no one has been killed, although the situation will explode at any time, but Li Meng doesn't want to be the one who lights the fuse.
The officers were still agile, leaning forward on the thick branches as much as possible, which could be seen clearly, the little marquis who was about to collapse with a short knife against his neck, Li Meng who was hiding behind him, and the few people who were holding a short gun to the outside, several people gasped.
Li Meng also stared at several officers not far away, and shouted loudly:
"I don't want to make trouble, it's this kid who doesn't understand bullshit has provoked him several times, scattered the soldiers and horses outside, this kid has no worries about his life, and after sixty miles out of the city, he will naturally give him back to you."
As Li Meng spoke, he suddenly felt that someone on the other side was staring at him, and he cursed in his heart, and shrank back again. After he finished shouting, the few officers in the tree did not reply except for Feng Zhong, they just silently looked at the number of people and the arrangement in the courtyard.
On the contrary, it was Feng Zhong, after all, he was his own young master, and he still shouted there:
"If you touch a hair of my young master's hair, and destroy your nine clans, a thousand knives will be light."
Li Meng's answer was just to add some strength to the knife in his hand, and the little marquis suddenly screamed like killing a pig, and this Feng Zhong immediately closed his mouth tightly, and climbed down the tree in a gray manner.
Both sides were pondering how to respond, but they heard the general surnamed Huang in front of them speak:
"I can let my brethren take the lead......
When Feng Zhong heard this, his heart was very hot, and he was just about to be polite, when he heard the sound of people boiling, and a military academy came over in a hurry, and he came here to greet Feng Zhong first and said:
"Here are 600 people transferred from the barracks, and Feng Dusi is also asked to transfer them."
Before he could answer, one of the previous generals sneered there:
"Your Feng Mansion is so big, for such a woman who plays with women every day to prostitute the yard, you actually transferred all the old people of your Weiyuan Marquis Mansion over, tsk."
The cynicism of everyone made this Feng Zhong's face pale and uncertain, and he was just about to open his mouth to discuss with the general surnamed Huang, but he saw that Huang, who had just opened his mouth to say that he wanted to help, hugged his fist towards him, and said with a smile:
"I'm sorry, there is something important in the camp, so I'll leave here first."
This attitude has changed too much, Feng Zhong has not come back to his senses, then Huang has already gotten on the horse and mobilized his men to leave, and the rest of the people looked at this scene, and they all said with a smile:
"Even if we don't have our help, your Feng family is nearly a thousand people, and they are all elite soldiers, so we won't delay your move, we will admit our bad luck for today's silver and go!"
Several officers laughed with each other, and also led their own people away, the little marquis above watched the people below walk away one by one, and his heart was suddenly in a hurry, but Li Meng's big hand grabbed him firmly like an iron tong, and he couldn't move at all. But Li Meng became more and more anxious in his heart, and several of his subordinates who were looking upstairs just now came to tell him that a large number of people had come from the other party.
They didn't come much, and in this Nanjing City, although the opponent's soldiers and horses could get support, their own side was completely alone. Li Meng thought for the first time that when he came to this era, couldn't it be the end of this era? The only way at the moment, I'm afraid, is to fight to the death and see if we can stand out.
That Feng Zhong is also experienced, although those who helped the fist left, but now there are more people than just now, they are all their own soldiers and horses, and they are even more handy in command, and they began to mobilize at the moment, disperse the nearby merchants and residences, and surround the entire Meilou.
The few rooms downstairs are full of bundled Feng Mansion family members, but the Zheng family and the people of Meilou are all in another room, incidentally, Gu Hengbo and the two little maids are actually in a separate room, which shows the enthusiasm of everyone.
That Mother Wu was completely uncalm at this time, and asked Zheng Shark beside her softly with a pale face:
"Old man, what is the origin of that person above, if he is a hero of the rivers and lakes, the concubine can also sell some face."
