The night is silent, and in autumn, the mountain wind is also mixed with a slight chill, however, it is the human heart that is thousands of times colder than the mountain wind.

"Don't worry, there are a lot of good players on that ship, and there is a team of fans, if you act rashly, you will definitely have to break a lot of brothers, if the fifth child sinks the boat, the brothers will save a lot of trouble."

When the subordinate heard this, he hurriedly flattered: "It's still the big boss who feels sorry for us little ones, and the brothers are grateful." ”

Zhou Feng, the third master on the side, gritted his teeth and said: "Big brother, the Wind Banner Firm washed our boat again last month, and we broke more than 30 brothers at once, these grandsons, don't fall into my hands, otherwise, I will let them live as well as die." ”

Cheng Lao Shark can become a tyrant in the South Seas, relying on nature not one person, Cheng Lao Shark is the boss, the second is the iron operator Tang Tian, the third is the overlord gun Zhou Feng, the fourth is Yunzhong Yan Wu Qi Niang, and the fifth is the little white fish Sun Yu, and the five have their own strengths.

This time, when he went to Hexia Town to intercept and kill the Qin Cha who opened the sea ban, Cheng Laosha personally led the team, and brought the old three overlords, Zhou Feng and Xiao Baiyu Sun Yu, who acted as the iron operator of the military advisor, and Yun Zhongyan, who was good at observing the sky, guarded the old nest.

Sun Yu is good at water, Cheng Laoyu sent him to take a few men who are proficient in water to dig the boat, at this moment, both of them are waiting for Sun Yu's good news.

Hearing the words of his subordinates, Cheng Lao Shark said expressionlessly: "Fengqi Merchant is the old nest of those Zhejiang businessmen, they are doing luck on the surface, and they go to sea secretly, and the abacus is really good. ”

Zhou Feng asked with some puzzlement: "Open the sea ban, that is a lot of incense burners and many ghosts, these Zhejiang businessmen do so much, what good is it for them?" Making wedding clothes for someone else? ”

"The benefits? There are so many benefits! Cheng Lao Shark said: "In business, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp. These Zhejiang businessmen are wealthy, for them, it is much better to go to sea openly than to go to sea in a small way, and now you have to use your brains to do anything, the third child, have you seen it. Now the best shipwright and the largest shipyard in the Ming Dynasty are controlled by Zhejiang businessmen, you have to ask for a ship when you go to sea, so don't you want him to buy it? If the ship is broken, they have to be repaired, and they can make a lot of money once they come and go. ”

"What is the most important and good thing to sell in the sea now, is silk, ceramics, tea, silk is best produced in Suzhou and Hangzhou, they have long been pinched in their hands, and others can't insert it at all, like ceramics and tea. It is also Zhejiang businessmen who account for the majority, that is, on the connections of officialdom, people made the right bet more than ten years ago. ”

Bet it all.

Cheng Lao Shark let out a long sigh, and then said: "That is, with such a huge advantage and such a big appetite, people are pushing for the opening of the sea ban." ”

Zhou Feng suddenly realized: "No wonder the eldest brother went out in person, it seems that this Yu Jin." He must die, if he doesn't. It's not going to be easy for us to buy and sell. ”

Cheng Laosha nodded, patted Zhou Feng's shoulder and said, "Third child, when you rush up for a while, don't leave your mouth alive." ”

It's not easy, my third brother has high force and low intelligence. But it is better to be obedient and faithful.

Keep your mind simple and be in control.

"Ahh

"Don't let him escape."

"Brothers, the wind is tight,."

Suddenly there were a few screams in the darkness, followed by a deep voice calling for retreat.

Cheng Laosha and Zhou Feng had a stirring spirit in their hearts: This is the voice of the old five little white fish.

Go without saying. The boat failed and was hunted down.

The two looked down, and under the light, they vaguely saw the sound of swimming on the river, and there were people standing at the bow of the boat with bows and arrows, not to mention trying to chase and kill the people who scuttled the boat, and suddenly, the lights of the boat were extinguished at the same time, and the sky and the earth became dark.

This group of people, not simple, this is a thought in Cheng Laoyu's heart, found that someone was digging the boat and did not panic, but secretly arranged, after driving away the boat-digging people, decisively extinguished the lights, so that the target is not so obvious, passive or active.

"Action." Cheng Laosha pulled out the knife with a snort and said without hesitation.

An order was given, immediately there were subordinates with arrows to draw bows, "woo" sound, a sound of arrows rose into the sky, this arrow is the signal of action, at the same time as the arrows, the mountain suddenly lit up the fire, only to see that the canal suddenly more than a dozen small boats, each boat lit torches, the boats are full of bandits with weapons and hideous faces, they screamed strangely, while quickly approaching the building boat parked in Xibi Bay.

At the same time, Zhou Feng, the overlord gun, also had a steel gun, and led his subordinates to rush straight to the building boat below the mountain like a tiger descending the mountain.

In this assassination operation, Cheng Lao Shark is determined to succeed.

The firelight dotted the wilderness, and the shouts of killing shattered the tranquility of the countryside.

"My lord, find cover quickly, and beware of cold arrows." Zhang Ben said as he knocked down the round table in the room and pulled Yu Jin behind the round table to hide.

Yu Jin was pulled by Zhang Ben, almost didn't fall, just wanted to say two words to him, but he didn't expect a burst of arrows "dang" "dang" "dang", a row of arrows through the thin screen window, shot into the room, the round table also made a few muffled sounds, should have blocked the arrows, one of the arrows "dang" was inserted into the wooden floor next to Yu Jin.

Due to the great strength of the arrow, the tail of the arrow was still trembling after it was inserted into the floor.

Yu Jin saw the situation for the first time, and he didn't react for a while.

It's too close to death, if it weren't for Zhang Ben's alertness, maybe he would have been here all at once.

Although it is not broad daylight, it is also the central hinterland of the Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court's monitoring of the Grand Canal is also very heavy, so someone attacked it so unscrupulously.

"Qing'er, Qing'er, are you okay?" As soon as Yu Jin reacted, he immediately looked back anxiously.

"It's okay, young master, you should be careful." Qing'er poked out her little head alertly behind the pillar and said with some gratitude.

It's okay, Yu Jin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then gritted his teeth and said: "These thieves are really bold, they are so rampant. ”

Just now, Yu Jin saw through the window of the boat, those thieves had more than ten small boats, each small boat had about twenty people, not to mention one or two hundred people, this kind of scale and momentum, it was not like seeking money and killing people, but like attacking the city and plundering the land.

During Jiajing's reign, he often ignored the government and refused to let go of power, so that some things dragged on for too long, and the rules had to be changed.

It is said that there is an official to the age of Zhishi, feel that he is old and weak, energy is not sustained, really can't do it, so he asked Jiajing to resign, I didn't expect that after the report was sent out, it was like a mud year into the sea, there was no response at all, so I had to continue to serve, while going to the book, many times there was no follow-up, put my heart horizontally, sealed the official seal, hung it in the lobby, and left.

This matter spread, and many officials also followed his example, which had to come, so that some official positions in some places had been vacant for a long time, coupled with the influence of the southern and northern captives, Daming was far less peaceful than imagined.

Just a few years ago, there were people in Shandong who plotted to rebel.

Zhang Ben suddenly opened his mouth and scolded: "These are the special nine-bucket bows in the army, how did these people get them?" ”

Bow and arrow is an indispensable standard weapon for the army in the era of cold weapons, bows and arrows are not banned, but they are also divided into military and civilian, military is mostly seven to nine buckets, and civilian is usually less than seven buckets.

In the first year of Xining of Song Shenzong (1068), "the edict issued Hebei Zhujun to teach and read the law, where the bow is divided into three grades, nine buckets are the first, eight buckets are the second, and seven buckets are the third; The crossbow is divided into three grades, two stones and seven buckets are the first, two stones and four buckets are the second, and two stones and one bucket are the third. "Like novels, those who pull three-stone, five-stone, or even ten-stone strong bows are mostly fictional.

A stone in ancient times, equivalent to one hundred and twenty catties now, is considered nine buckets, and there are more than 100 catties, and it is said in the bow and arrow, the higher may not be able to pull it, however, when you go into battle to fight, you can't just shoot one round and wait for others to charge, so under the combination of strength and durability, a strong bow of seven to nine buckets is more suitable.

Yu Jin's heart was shocked: "Are you sure?" ”

"There will be no mistake, this is the army's standard bow, I can hear it as soon as I hear the sound of the bowstring" Zhang Ben suddenly pulled down a sharp arrow and looked at it, then shook his head and said: "The craftsmanship of this arrow is not very good, strange." ”

In fact, not to mention, Yu Jin can also guess that those bows should flow out of the army, which is not strange in Daming, you know, there have not been many big battles in recent years, but there are many small battles, and most of the soldiers are very poor, and many soldiers are secretly trafficking in military supplies.

"Be careful! Rocket. Qing'er suddenly shouted.

Yu Jin looked up and saw a burning rocket passing overhead, "snapping" and nailing to the pillar, and the fire quickly ignited the curtain in the room.

"My lord, this one can't stay, let's go." Zhang Ben said anxiously.

It's autumn now, and it's crisp and crisp, and it's easy to cause a fire, and the building is luxuriously decorated, with a lot of silk curtains and other things, which can easily catch fire.

In a matter of moments, the cabin was already on fire.

Yu Jin hadn't looked for it yet, and suddenly heard someone shouting, "Lord Yu, my lord, are you okay?" ”

Turning his head, it turned out to be Song Baolin, only to see that he was disheveled, his head had not yet been tied, and under the escort of his subordinates, he immediately ran over to find Yu Jin.

"It's okay, what now?" Yu Jin said.

"These people have rockets, this is not a place to stay for a long time, we swear to protect the adults and rush out." Song Baolin changed his usual easy-going temperament and suddenly became serious.

If the ship is okay, it is good to take the ship as the city and stick to the help, but these people actually use rockets, and if they don't want to go, they will be burned to death sooner or later.

At this time, it is useless to blame, if there is anything, we will talk about it after tonight.

Yu Jin heard that he said, "Okay, this matter is up to Brother Song." ”

Song Baolin hesitated for a moment, and quickly asked, "My lord, the little one has an unpleasant invitation, and I ask the adults to cooperate." ”

"Whatever you want me to do, just say it." Yu Jin said very cheerfully.

"A little courage, I want to borrow an adult's official uniform."

Yu Jin glanced at Song Baolin, hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.
