Chapter 833: Journey to Jiangnan (9)
"Poof!" A black figure burst out of a window on the second floor of the painting boat opposite. A fish leap into the sparkling Qinhuai River!
Gao Yang's gaze was cold. Half-squinting his eyes, he watched the black shadow gradually disappear in the Qinhuai River like a swimming fish.
Snorted coldly. Putting down the crossbow arrow in his hand, he picked up Zheng Xiujing, who was panicked and trembling slightly. Give a reassuring smile "Don't worry, I'm here." ”
By this time the fighting on the shore was over. A large number of guards grabbed all kinds of ships and swarmed towards this side.
Gao Yang walked down with Zheng Xiujing in his arms and raised his hand to cover her eyes. There was a coldness in his eyes. I didn't look at the Assassins who were rolling and howling on the ground with their heads over and their eyes covered. He whispered to several of the guards who were covered in blood, "Seal the city and let the navy in." Don't let any of them go! ”
It was Li Guo who was hiding on the second floor of the painting boat opposite and sniping Gao Yang before!
I was unwilling to let my uncle and fellow villagers be killed like this, or they were taken to Beijing to wait for punishment. Li Guo is determined to fight to the death and hire a large number of people to snipe and kill his biggest enemy, the Ming National Teacher!
He also didn't expect that Gao Yang would really dare to leave the heavily guarded Wei Guogong Mansion. Not only that, but he also dared to get on a painting boat with only a few guards.
Li Guo immediately seized this God-given opportunity and sent a group of people to entangle those guards on the shore. He himself led a large group of people to directly grab a painting boat and crashed straight into it.
Everything went very smoothly. The dead soldiers he hired had successfully boarded the boat, and it was time to get his revenge. Li Guo, who was hiding in the shadows to observe all this, saw a scene that he couldn't understand and couldn't accept!
That national teacher actually conjured an immortal magic weapon out of thin air, and forcibly turned the situation back!
Li Guo, who was cold in his heart, gritted his teeth, picked up the bow and crossbow and shot at the delicate male attendant beside Gao Yang!
Before, I didn't dare to get too close to observe. Li Guo and they have always regarded Zheng Xiujing as a man. I still despise these court officials in my heart, all of them have a habit of dragon yang, and they all like men. But when he saw Gao Yang's immortal means. Li Guo was worried that his crossbow arrows might not hurt Gao Yang, so he thought about killing the male waiter. It's also good to make Gao Yang feel distressed.
After that, it was Gao Yang who caught the crossbow arrows that were hurrying away with his bare hands! This is not something that humans can do anymore.
Li Guo, who was completely frightened, couldn't care about anything else. As soon as he threw the crossbow arrow in his hand, he turned around and slammed open the window. Jumped into the Qinhuai River and dived to escape.
At this time, Li Guo just wanted to escape from Jiangning Mansion with a lot of wealth, go to Fusang to become a rich man, and spend the rest of his life well. Because he knew that he couldn't deal with that man!
Under the cover of night, Li Guo quickly went ashore from a hidden place. In a hurry, he changed into brand new clothes in a small courtyard prepared in advance, and packed his wealth. He led a horse from the courtyard and ran towards the reserved gate.
Li Guo, who is smart and alert, has already arranged all this in advance. He has been a thief for so many years and has been hunted down by the whole world. This set of escape routines has long been extremely proficient.
As for those who were hired. Who cares about who at this time? He'd already given the silver anyway. As for whether those people can escape, what is the matter with him?
Coming to the vicinity of the city gate, Li Guo, who had regained his calm demeanor, passed through the city gate smoothly and left Jiangning Mansion. Then he turned on his horse and galloped all the way to a small fishing village more than ten miles away. He booked a riverboat there. After getting on the boat, you can go all the way down to Matsue Mansion, and then change to a sea boat and go to Fuso!
Less than a quarter of an hour after Li Guo left, a group of cavalry hurried to the vicinity of the city gate. Shouting loudly to close the gates of the city, no one is allowed to leave!
A large number of naval officers and men were ordered to leave the battleship and go ashore, and quickly took over the entire Jiangning Province. There is a post in five steps and a post in ten steps on the street. The idlers and others all went home separately, and there was a tense and depressed atmosphere.
"Who is the messenger?" After returning to the mansion of the Duke of Wei. Gao Yang sent Zheng Xiujing back to modern time and space to rest. I sat down in the hall where I came and waited for the outcome of the interrogation.
"Commander." The calm-eyed biochemical warrior saluted Gao Yang and said, "According to the confessions of the prisoners of war. They were hired by a man named Wen Dezhao. We've found out who he is. But when I went to his house to arrest someone, I found that he had already escaped in advance. ”
The living mouths who were captured alive quickly confessed everything in the face of powerful confession potions and advanced interrogation methods.
They are all people who use silver to lick the blood with knives. They don't know who the employer is or who the target is. The person who connected them was a broker who was doing this business, a native of Jiangning Mansion, and his name was Wen Dezhao.
With these clues in hand, the cyborg warriors quickly figured out the details of the intermediary. It's just that when I went to arrest someone, I pounced. It seems that this Wen Dezhao is also a smart person, and he has already run away in advance.
"How much silver was given?" Gao Yang reached for the cigarette in his pocket. It's just that as if he suddenly remembered something, he had already touched the cigarette and put it back. Lowering his eyelids slightly, he asked in a low voice, "Or rather, how much is my head worth?" ”
"Commander." The cyborg replied, "According to the captives. Each of them received a settling-in allowance of eight hundred taels. As for what the total amount, they are also not clear. ”
"Hmm." Gao Yang nodded slightly. After a moment of silence, he said, "That Wen Dezhao is a key person. Be sure to catch it. Since he is a local, he will probably not abandon his family and children and go to the end of the world. Go and find the snakes here, those people of all religions must know where that Wen Dezhao is. ”
"Yes!" The cyborg soldier saluted and left.
"Who do you think did it?" After the cyborg soldier left, Origin asked curiously.
Gao Yang raised his hand and rubbed his eyebrows, and said with a helpless smile, "How would I know?" There are so many enemies I have offended here, it is possible for anyone. After a pause, he continued, "The remnants of the Northern Jianju and the Mongols. The families of the high-ranking families in the Jingshi who have been cleaned up by me. Ill-intentioned members of the court. Li Zicheng's fish that slipped through the net and so on. There are so many possibilities. ”
"Tsk!" Yuan smacked his mouth and said, "I really didn't expect that you have only been here for long." There are already so many enemies? ”
Gao Yang clasped his hands, raised his eyebrows, and had a shallow smile on the corner of his mouth. He whispered, "I think it's good." The more enemies I have. It means that there are fewer and fewer moths lying on the Chinese nation to suck blood. I didn't let down this rare journey of time. ”
Look up at the beautifully painted ceiling. Gao Yang narrowed his eyes and said in a flat voice, "For me." Making up for past regrets is the most important thing. ”
......
It turns out that the saying that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake is reasonable.
After receiving a notice from Gao Yang asking for assistance. From the prefect of Jiangning to the new Duke of Wei. From ordinary officials to officials of the six ministries of Jiangning Mansion. The snakes of the entire Jiangning Mansion were turned over. There is only one purpose, which is to find out where that bastard named Wen Dezhao will be now?!
Before dawn, a group of more than 100 elite cavalry hurriedly left Jiangning Mansion. Traveling along the wide and empty road for dozens of miles, I came to a small village hidden in the mountain col.
This little Zhuangzi is the retreat reserved by Wen Dezhao for himself. This place is extremely secluded. Nestled in a small valley off the beaten track. Outside the valley there are also deceptive ornaments. It's really hard to come in without an acquaintance.
It's just that this time it was brought by an acquaintance.
After some operation by the local snakes in Jiangning Mansion, the old craftsman who built this Zhuangzi for Wen Dezhao a few years ago was found. came all the way here with the elite sent by Gao Yang, and successfully stunned. Wen Dezhao, who was full of despair, was arrested.
Wen Dezhao is different from Li Guo, he is a native of Jiangning Province. His father, brother, wife, daughter, family, and clansmen are all on the ground of this Jiangning Mansion. Li Guo, who has no worries, can leave, but he can't go.
Wen Dezhao's original plan was to hide here for a while, and then go to another place incognito to live a leisurely life after the limelight passed. He didn't expect that the people of the imperial court would dig him out in such a short period of time!
Wen Dezhao, who was dragged back to Jiangning Mansion by a fast horse, quickly recruited everything he knew. It's time like this, and the dead duck's hard mouth is just to find a hard time for himself. It's just that he doesn't know who Li Guo is. It can only be said that Li Guo spoke with a hint of northern Shaanxi accent.
Gao Yang thought for a while, and asked people to take out the deck of playing cards for him to identify. Wen Dezhao turned over a few cards and immediately drew out Li Guo's card, and he was absolutely sure that it was him!
Even if it ruined half of his face. Wen Dezhao can still recognize him. After going through the wind and frost, the people who come out of the bloody wind and rain will not have a public face!
"Li Guo? It turned out to be him. "Found the person behind the scenes, but Gao Yang didn't have any joy in his heart.
It's easy to say what other people say. It would be nice to be caught and punished. But this Li Guo is not ordinary.
In the history of modern time and space, this Li Guo was defeated by Wu Sangui and the Manchu Qing in Li Zicheng's army in Chaoshigang, withdrew from the capital and fled all the way south, after Li Zicheng was accidentally killed in Jiugong Mountain. changed his name to Li Jin and took over Li Zicheng's position.
After that, Li Guo followed Li Dingguo and Nan Ming to join forces to resist the Manchu army that was heading south, and fought bravely. Emperor Longwu gave him the name Chixin and was named the Duke of Xingguo.
In the second year of Shunzhi, Dolgon "appeased" him six times in succession. As a result, every time it is "people don't believe it".
Li Guo expressed his firm determination to resist the Qing Dynasty. The Dashun army led by him cooperated sincerely with the Ming army and defeated the Qing army many times. Strongly supported the regimes of the Southern Ming Dynasty.
Li Guo fought in Hunan and Guizhou for five years, and later because of the epidemic in the army. Soil and water are not adapted, and he dies of illness.
In the history of modern time and space. No matter what Li Guo did in the early stage. At the time of foreign invasion, he showed his unyielding loyalty as a son and daughter of China, and finally fought to the death. is also a national hero. (To be continued)
