Chapter 239: Black Flag Arrows
A light rain overnight wet the city of Hangzhou.
The cold and wet air blew in through the small window, blowing away the breath in the cell.
The intense pain woke Shi Quan from his coma. He opened his eyes, lifted his bloodied face, and looked out the window.
After Li Ze arrested Shi Quan's brothers, he couldn't wait to interrogate.
On the first day, Li Ze's attitude was quite kind, and he persuaded Shi Quan with a pleasant face not to lose his life for a thief and death row prisoner.
"Although your Shi family is not a famous family in Hangzhou City, it also has some status. As long as you tell the whereabouts of Na Wu Song, this official can guarantee that he will not be to blame for the past. If you want, you can also come to the yamen to be a team leader, what do you think? ”
Shi Quan pretended to be stupid and denied that he knew Wu Song's whereabouts.
"Wu Song passed away that day, and Fuzun also inspected it, and his family just obeyed Fuzun's orders, how can he know many twists and turns."
Li Ze was kind enough to persuade him, but Brother Shi Quan did not let go.
On the second day, Li Ze was forced by Pan Tong to be anxious, so he changed his face and pleasant face, and tortured Shi Quan's brothers. This Shi Quan and Shi Yong are really hard bones. was beaten to death, covered in bruises, and did not tell Wu Song's whereabouts. By the third day, Li Ze was really in a hurry...... He ordered someone to dip a strip of linen cloth in the hot glue made of fish maw and stick it on Shi Quan's body. This swim bladder is sticky, so don't think about separating if it's sticky. After waiting for it to dry, Li Ze asked Wu Song's whereabouts again, and when he saw that Shi Quan refused to confess, he pulled the linen strip upside down. With a pull, a piece of the belt meat was torn off.
This criminal law has a name. It's called Phi Linen Wrapping, and it's also called Peeling Question.
It is said to be a kind of torture handed down from the Sui and Tang dynasties, but it has never been recorded in the canon.
Shi Quan was torn off seven or eight pieces of flesh, and he was in a coma more than ten times, and he was dying.
Li Ze saw that he couldn't stand it anymore, so he had to temporarily stop the torture and throw him into prison. Prepare to continue the interrogation tomorrow......
The severe pain in his body made Shi Quan convulse.
But he was a tough guy, and he gritted his teeth. Didn't let out a moan.
Can't hold it!
Shi Quan sat up and leaned against the wall.
In the corner, Shi Yong was still asleep. But that immature face was full of fear.
Shi Quan didn't know how long he could support it, but he knew that Shi Yong was afraid that he had reached the limit. If you continue to insist on this, I am afraid that you will not survive today.
I don't know if the Jade Eunuch transferred Wu Ti's jurisdiction?
Shi Quan's gaze swept over the cell, and his gaze fell on a wooden wedge about three inches long in the corner.
This wooden wedge is used to hold the prison door in place.
Previously, the cell door was in disrepair, so it was repaired once, and the wooden wedge on the original door was left here. There was no one to clean it up.
Shi Quan's eyes lit up and he struggled to crawl over.
He picked up the wooden wedge, and when he saw that the wooden wedge was sharp, he clenched it in his hand and crawled towards Shi Yong.
Since I can't stand it. That's it!
Poor Shi Yongcai is so old that he was implicated by himself, not to mention this great crime, he still has to ...... However, for the sake of the safety of Wu Ti Zhi and the Jade Capital Prison, this can only be done. Kill Shi Yong. Then he committed suicide, thinking that he would come to Wuti and Yudu Prison, and he would be safe. In the future, Wu Ti Ha and Yu Du Jian will avenge themselves...... It's a pity that he couldn't kill Li Ze with his own hands.
Shi Quan climbed to Shi Yong's side, took a deep breath, and raised the wooden wedge in his hand.
"Liulang, Hugh blames his brother for being ruthless.
But if you and I don't die, then the Wutiha and the Jade Prison will be affected. My Shi family has received great grace from Wu Ti, how can I do things that will take revenge. Don't worry, after you leave, I will follow, on Huangquan Road, our brothers will go together. ”
After reading it in his heart, Shi Quan gritted his teeth, and the wooden wedge in his hand was about to fall.
But at this moment, I heard a sound of footsteps outside the cell door.
Immediately after, two jailers accompanied a middle-aged man to the prison door. The middle-aged man was not tall, exuding a bookish atmosphere. He put his hands behind his back and asked with a smile: "Brother Cell Head, is Brother Shi Quan in this prison?" ”…,
"Yes, those two bird thieves are here.
I've seen it anyway, so let's go quickly...... If it weren't for your money, how would you dare to take such a risk? These two people offended the Fuzun, and sooner or later they will die together. If it is known by the government, there must be blame. ”
"Shi Dalang, where is your picture of the spring scenery of the West Lake hidden?"
The middle-aged man did not leave immediately, but asked loudly.
Shi Quan was stunned, the spring scene of West Lake?
He suddenly remembered that once when he met with Zhang Zeduan, Zhang Zeduan said that he would make a picture of the spring scene of West Lake when spring begins. At that time, Shi Quan also smiled and said that if he made a painting, he would be the first to appreciate it, and Zhang Zeduan readily agreed.
Spring view of West Lake, could it be that he is a subordinate of the Jade Capital Eunuch?
Shi Quan's eyes rolled, and he shouted: "Then go back and tell the housekeeper that he didn't want to get this picture." ”
The two jailers were a little dissatisfied, scolded repeatedly, and stepped forward to push the middle-aged man.
Unexpectedly, the middle-aged man's eyes were cold, and a dagger slipped out of his big sleeve, and with a dripping turn in his hand, he cut the throat of a jailer with a light swipe. The other jailer was startled and instinctively shouted, "Someone has robbed ......"
Before the word 'prison' could be spoken, the middle-aged man thrust the dagger into the jailer's mouth with his backhand, and then dodged the bloody arrow that spewed out of the jailer's mouth. The body of the jailer fell straight down, and the sound of the jailer alarmed the jailer at the door.
In early spring, the prison was quite empty, and only the two Shi brothers were imprisoned.
Because Li Ze specially ordered it, there were many people in the prison to take care of it. The movement inside immediately alarmed the jailers outside the prison.
"Prison robbery, someone robbery!"
The terrible screams suddenly resounded in the sky, tearing apart the tranquility above the Hangzhou prison.
Shi Yong also woke up, his eyes widened and he looked outside.
The middle-aged man was not in a hurry, he bent down and grabbed a waist knife from a jailer, and cut off the thumb-thick chain on the cell door with a backhand click. Immediately, he kicked the door of the cell with his canopy and flew out, and he went into the prison.
His eyes swept over Brother Shi Quan, and the middle-aged man's face. A smile of appreciation suddenly appeared.
"What a good man, it's not in vain that I risked my life to come to the rescue in Hangzhou...... That boy, can you still move? ”
The middle-aged man pointed at Shi Yong and said in a deep voice: "If you can move, you will support your brother and kill him with me...... Shi Dalang, Hugh a lot of instigation. If you don't want to die, come with me. When you get out of danger, you will be told how a situation arises. ”
Shi Quan immediately closed his mouth and stood up with Shi Yong's arm.
Speaking of which. Although Shi Yong was also punished, it was not as severe as Shi Quan...... Li Ze's attention was all on Shi Quan, and he focused on interrogating Shi Quan from the beginning. So although Shi Yong is also covered in bruises. But it didn't hurt the bones. He helped Shi Quan to walk out, following closely behind the middle-aged man. At this moment, the cell door was wide open, and more than a dozen jailers swarmed up.
The middle-aged man sneered and leaned forward to meet him.
The steel knife in his hand cut a strange sword, and a series of screams sounded, and none of those jailers could block the middle-aged man's move. The middle-aged man is like a tiger entering a flock, and he kills a bloody path in the blink of an eye. His clothes were stained with blood. Brother Shi Quan staggered after him, and soon rushed out of the prison door. At this time, just after the end of the day, the sky was bright. In the city of Hangzhou, it is full of fire. There were deafening shouts of killing everywhere......
A masked man with a group of people rushed to the door of the prison.
These people were all armed with sharp weapons, and they only killed the Hangzhou prison with a river of blood......
The big man came to the middle-aged man and sang a fat promise: "Brother, the brothers from all walks of life have begun to retreat, let's go quickly."
If the Hangzhou government reacts. Mobilize troops and horses, but I am afraid that the brothers at the gate of the city will not last long. The middle-aged man nodded, and took a nine-foot Daning pen gun from the big man's hand.
"Ji Qing, take care of them, don't let them have the slightest injury...... Sons, come with me to fight out of Hangzhou City! ”
The masked man, that is, Ji Qing in the middle-aged mouth, didn't say a word, walked quickly to Shi Quan, and carried Shi Quan on his back. Then he called two masked men and supported Shi Yong. He didn't speak, he took a heavy sledgehammer from one of his attendants, and with the other hand held a bronze tiger tooth shield, and walked away with the middle-aged man.
At this time, the city of Hangzhou was in chaos.
The middle-aged man took Ji Qing and the others, and the journey was smooth, and he almost didn't encounter any obstacles, and then came to Xinkaimen.
Under the city gate, more than 100 heroes gathered, all dressed in green clothes and masked in black scarves.
When everyone saw the middle-aged man coming, they saluted the middle-aged man with brushes and brushes, "Brother, the brothers have gathered, can you leave?" ”
"Hurry up!"
The middle-aged man didn't say anything and rushed out of the city gate.
Outside the city gate, there was a cavalry of about twenty men, riding horses and carrying guns.
"Ji Qing!"
"Whoa."
"Take the brethren first, and I will come later."
The masked man was not verbose, he immediately agreed, beckoned to lead more than 100 men in Tsing Yi, and left quickly.
At this time, a group of officers and soldiers galloped from the direction of Wangxian Bridge.
At the head was a marquis of Yu, armed with a big sword, who rushed ahead first, shouting: "Hugh has gone away from the thief." ”
The middle-aged man turned over and turned his horse to look back.
Seeing the officers and soldiers chasing after him, instead of panicking, he grinned.
When he smiled, he suddenly revealed a mouthful of snow-white and neat teeth, "Brothers, I haven't killed pigs for a long time, and these pigs seem to have forgotten our majesty." Today, I want to kill again in this Hangzhou City, so that they can see the majesty of our Black Flag Arrow Team. ”
As he spoke, he hung the Daning pen pistol on the victory hook of the saddle bridge, and the probe took out a bow from the horse's back pocket.
Bending the bow and arrow, the middle-aged man didn't even aim, and shot an arrow, right in the front of the Yuhou face gate...... At the same time, the twenty attendants swept three black flags out of their horses' pockets, thrust them into their backs, and let out a series of strange shouts, and rushed into the city. These knights, bending their bows and arrows on horseback, shot a round of arrows, and more than a dozen officers and soldiers fell in a pool of blood, and suddenly lost their lives......
"Pang Tianwang, Black Flag Arrow Team!"
Some of the veterans, the oil sons, saw the galloping cavalry, a name that was almost forgotten, suddenly flashed in their minds.
Thinking that at the beginning, Fang La started an incident, and Pang Wanchun's 800 Black Flag Arrow Team crisscrossed the south of the Yangtze River, killing the officers and soldiers and fleeing...... Many veterans still remember the roaring Black Flag Arrow Team and the overwhelming rain of arrows. After Fang La was executed. The Black Flag Arrow Team fled into Moganshan with Pang Wanchun, and there was no news. It's no wonder that the Black Flag Arrow team used to rob the house? So much so that many people are about to forget about the Black Flag Arrows, but they don't want to, and they will reappear today.
"Run. It's the Black Flag Arrows coming! ”
By the time the Black Flag Arrow Team rushed to Wangxian Bridge, three rounds of arrow rain had passed.
Under the Wangxian Bridge, there were thirty or forty corpses lying horizontally and vertically. Blood flowed down the gap in the bluestone on the Wangxian Bridge into the river.
Yu Hou is dead!
And he was killed by the Black Flag Arrows......
How could the officers and soldiers still have the courage to respond to the battle, and their weapons were lost. Turn around and run.
There was the clever one who jumped from the Wangxian Bridge into the icy river, but there was still the slow one who was shot into a hedgehog in an instant.
The middle-aged man Lema Wangxian Bridge shouted: "Go back and tell the dog official, and say that Pang Wanchun will come to visit you again in the near future." ”
With that, he drank the Black Flag Arrows, turned his horse and left. ..., and in the Qinghefang Restaurant not far from Wangxian Bridge, Yu Yin looked at the black flag arrow team roaring away, and suddenly turned his head to Chen Dong and said: "Shaoyang, if I am a big Song military horse." Half of the Black Flag Arrow Team is as straight as Pang Wanchun, so why should the captives be afraid? ”
Chen Dong showed a bitter smile, nodded, and shook his head, his eyes looking extremely complicated.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
"Pang Wanchun? Black Flag Arrows? ”
Li Ze accompanied Pantong to drink all night last night. So I woke up a little late.
When he heard that someone had set fire to the city, and that the Black Flag Arrow Team, which had been extinct for many years, had reappeared in Hangzhou, he was immediately frightened and turned pale.
Black Flag Arrows!
When Fang La entered Hangzhou City, it was the Black Flag Arrow Team as the vanguard.
Li Ze had not seen the majesty of the Black Flag Arrows, but he cleaned up the battlefield at that time. From the bridge to the new bridge, there is also a bridge in the middle. Along the way, I saw dead bodies that were shot like hedgehogs, and they were miserable.
At that time, Li Ze vomited, and when he asked others, he learned that it was the Black Flag Arrow team.
After that, Li Ze had a deep fear of Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team. Now hearing that the Black Flag Arrows team has reappeared, it only makes him feel cold all over his body.
How can Pang Wanchun still be alive?
"Why didn't Li Fuzun send troops to pursue?"
Pan Tong didn't know the prestige of Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team, and when he saw that Li Ze was stunned, he showed dissatisfaction and said: "Brother Shi Quan was rescued by Pang Wanchun, which also shows that Wu Song must be in the hands of Pang Wanchun." Now that he has thrown himself into the net, he has just caught all these rebellious thieves...... If you can't take Wu Song, and two more thieves and prisoners are gone, when the time comes, Li Fuzun is afraid that it will be difficult to explain. ”
Li Ze trembled in his heart.
Yes, Pang Wanchun is not easy to provoke, so Cai Jing is even more difficult to serve.
I've been working hard for many years, and it's not easy to make this Hangzhou Zhizhou, and I haven't even covered my seat, so I'm going to lose it?
No, you can't just forget it......
Li Ze's heart was horizontal, he gritted his teeth, and shouted: "Cao Cheng! ”
"The end will be."
"You immediately set up troops and horses to pursue Pang Wanchun.
They didn't have many horses, most of them were foot soldiers, and it was not difficult to catch up. Kill Pang Wanchun for me and take back Brother Shiquan. ”
When Cao Cheng heard this, he took the order without saying a word.
It's not that he doesn't know Pang Wanchun, and it's not that he hasn't heard of the Black Flag Arrows.
It's just that when Cao Cheng came to Hangzhou, Fang La had already been ambushed, and Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team had disappeared. So in my heart, I didn't care too much about Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team, and I always felt that their prestige was a bit exaggerated.
If Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team were so powerful, how could Fang La fail?
You must know that when Pang Wanchun and the Black Flag Arrow Team attacked Hangzhou City, they were not driven out of Chongxinmen by Han Shizhong. In the past, if Han Shizhong could do it, he could do it himself! If you kill Pang Wanchun, recapture the Shi brothers, and destroy the Black Flag Arrow Team, it must be a great achievement.
Cao Chengxing rushed away, and Li Ze finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Brother Hugh should be in a hurry, and when Cao Cheng came back from killing Pang Wanchun, he would raise troops and horses and kill Pang Wanchun's lair...... Thinking of coming to Na Wu Song, he is now recuperating in Pang Wanchun's lair, and he is just arrested and sent to Tokyo to be dedicated to the prime minister. ”
Pantone suddenly smiled.
"I have long known that Li Fuzun is extraordinary, if he does it beautifully this time, after he goes back, he will speak well for Li Fuzun in front of the public minister."
"So, thank you, brother."
Li Ze was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked Pan Dao.
I think that at the beginning, he Li Ze was also full of ambition, and he was dissatisfied with the affairs of the DPRK and China, and even hated Cai Jing and his ilk for controlling the DPRK.
As a result, he was promoted to the Jinshi, but he was kicked out of Tokyo and sent to Hangzhou to become an inconspicuous petty official. ..., for almost ten years, the fierce and strong Li Ze has already died, and only Li Zhizhou, who is now willing to slap his horse and whiskers for the drill camp. Li Ze has already seen clearly in his heart that no matter how great his ability is, he can't resist a good backer.
If he hadn't taken refuge with the prince at the beginning, and now he can't say that he is still suffering in a small county, how can he have the scenery of Zhizhou now?
The dignity of the past is long gone.
Pan Tong is not as old as Li Ze, and when it comes to this official position, it is not as noble as Li Ze's Zhizhou.
But Li Ze was 'brother' long, and 'brother' was short, without the slightest shame. He ordered a banquet to be served, and he drank with Pantone in the house. As for the fires in Hangzhou, Li Ze didn't pay attention to it at all. The most important thing is to serve the envoy of the prime minister. If the service is not good, how can he, Li Ze, sit firmly in the position of 'Zhizhou'?
Besides, although Pang Wanchun is powerful, Cao Cheng is also extraordinary.
His own soldiers and horses are far superior to Pang Wanchun, even if he Pang Wanchun has three heads and six arms, he is not his opponent.
It doesn't matter whether Pang Wanchun lives or dies.
The important thing is to arrest Shi Quan back, and it is best to arrest Wu Song as well, so that Pan Tong can leave happily The most important thing is the most important.
The two of them were pushing cups and changing lamps in the palace, and it was nearly noon in the blink of an eye.
Pan Tong and Li Ze were both a little drunk.
Just as the two were talking with great interest, they suddenly heard a commotion outside the door.
Without waiting for Li Ze to ask, he saw a junior colonel, covered in blood, running into the hall and kneeling in the hall with a pop.
"Qiqi Mansion, it's not good......
Deputy Envoy Cao, Deputy Envoy Cao was ambushed by Pang Wanchun on the way to pursue Pang Wanchun...... Deputy Cao made him, he, he was killed by Pang Wanchun. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
