It didn't take long for the Green Scarf Gang to receive a secret report from a small salt merchant named Liangjiu in Yangzhou, and someone came to sell him salt. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Yangzhou is an important distribution center for salt in Lianghuai, if the salt industry in this place is interfered with by others, the loss of the Green Turban Gang will be great, which will endanger the foundation of the Green Turban Gang.

However, this also gave the Green Scarf Gang a chance, Yangzhou is their most powerful place, and it is still very easy to pack up these outsiders. The gang leader Hong Wang attached great importance to it, and personally transferred the masters in the gang to deal with this matter, and for the sake of safety, he also sent Ma Cheng, the deputy gang leader of the Salt Gang, to lead the team.

Ma Cheng, the deputy gang leader, is the most effective cadre of the Green Turban Gang leader, he has learned martial arts since he was a child, and has participated in many gang battles, there are not a few people who have been killed and injured in his hands, and he has also trained the skills of killing people very skillfully in actual combat, and the usual dozen people can't get close to him. It can be said that Ma Cheng ascended to the position of deputy gang leader completely by virtue of his bravery. This time he was going to kill people again, Ma Cheng was very excited, and then looked at the generals of the gang who were going to go with him, Ma Cheng secretly laughed at the gang leader This time he was making a little fuss. To deal with a group of petty thieves who sell illicit salt, just take your subordinates to do it, and there is no need to let these masters appear.

Yan Shang Liangjiu was so nervous when he saw that Ma Cheng, the deputy gang leader, usually dealt with him with some small minions, and this gang leader-level figure was really rare.

"Gang leader, please sit inside." Liang Jiu greeted Ma Cheng attentively.

"Tell me about the situation of the future people." Sitting down in the house, Ma Cheng said to Liang Jiu.

"The person who came was a man in his forties, who claimed to be Yang Yuanqing and spoke with a northern accent, he came to me and said that there was salt to sell to me, and the price was very low, I remembered the advice of several masters in the gang, so I paid attention to the other party's situation, and then reported it to the gang." Liang Jiu carefully answered Ma Cheng's question.

"Did you ask him anything else?" Ma Cheng saw that the arrangement of the gang leader had worked, and he hoped that this time he could figure out where the opponent came from.

"I deliberately used his words in my conversation with him, and asked him how a northerner sells salt in this place where salt merchants gather in the south, and whether there is a salt farm in the south to supply him with salt, he denied it, saying that his salt comes from the north, and he has to go through many checkpoints from the north to Yangzhou, and I asked him how he passed the checkpoints, but he didn't say it again." Liang Jiu didn't dare to offend the people of the Salt Gang, so he kept an eye on it when he was told to watch out for someone coming to sell illicit salt, and immediately reported it to the Green Turban Gang after discovering a suspicious person.

"The person who came is quite cunning, no matter how cunning he is, he has to meet to hand over the salt, Liang Jiu, or you come forward to negotiate the transaction location with him, and then report it to us, I will give him a net." Ma Cheng was already imagining the scene of the thief being caught and begging him for mercy.

Liang Jiu negotiated the price with Yang Yuanqing, who came to sell salt, according to the instructions of the Qing Turban Gang, and it was not long before Yang Yuanqing told Liang Jiu to hand over the silver goods in a secluded place outside Yangzhou.

Liang Jiu quietly approached the delivery location with the people of the Green Turban Gang at the appointed time, and Yang Yuanqing probably chose the delivery time at midnight in order to facilitate concealment, which also created conditions for the people of the Green Turban Gang to approach.

Taking advantage of the night, Liang Jiu and the others touched the place not far from the joint, and found that this place was really remote and desolate, and only saw a few broken thatched huts standing there by the moonlight, surrounded by deep barren grass.

"Fence it out!" Ma Cheng gave the order. The disciples of the Tsing Yi Gang formed an encirclement around the grass hut to prevent the people inside from escaping.

Everything was arranged, Ma Cheng and two of his men followed Liang Jiu to the door of the grass hut, Ma Cheng was ready to rush into the house, and waved his hand to Liang Jiu to signal him to call the door.

"Brother Yang, are you there? I'm Liang Jiu, open the door. Liang Jiu shouted into the house.

"Wait a minute, here we go." There was an echo in the house. Then I heard the sound of pulling the deadbolt. The two disciples who were with Ma Cheng listened carefully to the movement in the house, and when they heard that the bolt of the door of the grass house was opened, the two of them kicked on the door at the same time, and the door of the opposite room was violently separated from the left and right.

At this time, the two disciples had already drawn their knives and rushed towards the house.

Ma Cheng saw that the two of them were very skillful in cooperating, thinking that he had succeeded in this move, and was about to move to follow him, when an accident suddenly occurred, and the gunshots in the house suddenly broke out, and the fire flashed.

Ma Cheng shouted in horror: "There are muskets!" ”

The disciples who rushed to the house heard Ma Cheng's shouts too late, and they were slumped at the door of the room by the muskets, where they struggled a few times and did not move, and their lives had flowed out of their bodies.

While Ma Cheng shouted for his companions to warn, a heel bucket flipped into the dirt pit next to him, and his rich experience in facing the enemy saved his life.

Liang Jiu was not so lucky, he was still standing there stupidly when he heard Ma Cheng's shout, and the gunshots in the house rang out again, and Liang Jiu was immediately knocked to the ground.

The lights in the house went out at the same time as the gunshots rang out, and the door that had been kicked open did not close, and the black hole was open there.

Ma Cheng lay in the pit and observed outward, he didn't dare to move easily. At this time, the disciples of the Green Scarf Gang who were surrounded by houses also fell to the ground and did not dare to move.

Seeing the surrounding terrain clearly by the moonlight, Ma Cheng made a gesture to the two disciples on the side of the house, and the two understood and approached from the side of the house. Their intention was that the side of the house would not have doors or windows and would not be easy to find.

But they had barely taken a few steps when a flash of fire flashed from the side wall of the thatched hut, and at the same time the gunshots rang out, and the two leaping figures froze for a moment and fell to the ground without a sound as if they had been hit by a heavy hammer.

"Don't move!" Ma Cheng hurriedly shouted, it seems that the people inside dug a hole in the wall of the thatched house and shot outward, in this night, it looks like where the shooting hole has been dug out, and the marksmanship of the people in the house is quite accurate, and the jumping skills are very flexible when rushing forward just now, but then they were still shot by the people inside, and lost their lives, if everyone blindly rushed forward, they would be sent to death in vain.

After stabilizing his mind, Ma Cheng quickly thought of a way and quietly ordered the green scarf beside him to help the disciples prepare.

After a while, the place where the Green Turban Gang was hiding outside the house suddenly flashed with fire, and several torches flew towards the thatched hut with flames in the air. The thatch on the thatched roof for waterproofing had become very dry due to the recent lack of rain, and when it came into flames, it burst into flames, and the whole house was enveloped in flames.

"Everyone is ready to prevent the people in the house from rushing out and escaping." Ma Cheng gave the order loudly, telling the members of the Green Turban Gang to prepare for battle.

Ma Cheng was proud in his heart, no matter how accurate the guns of the people inside were, they were burned out of the house, and there was no possibility of survival in the face of a large number of disciples of the Green Turban Gang with strong martial arts. (To be continued.) )
