Chapter 5 Concession (9)
"Prove your worth. I don't want to hear again that you gave me something that doesn't belong to you. Ding Yi didn't care too much about Mahmood's recitation, but said to him, "I have to reiterate that the Ming Empire loves peace, does not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries, does not interfere in the beliefs of others, and respects the bullied Persian people and their will to be independent and self-reliant." ā
Mahmoud kowtowed to Dingyi, and there was a certain fanaticism in his eyes: "Master, I will go and fetch it for you, the most insignificant jewel in your crown." Then he got up and prepared to leave, for he understood Ding Yi's words perfectly. The gem he was talking about was this bundle of wooden bones.
"Don't rush." Ding Yi stopped him, picked up the long knife on the side, and gently stroked the scabbard, "In matters outside the concession, it is impossible for the Ming Dynasty to interfere in the principle of respecting the internal affairs of other countries, but if someone is in the concession and attacks the soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, then he will definitely be punished as he deserves." ā
Mahmoud's well-trimmed beard couldn't help but tremble: "Master, if it's hundreds......" He is a scheming person, in fact, no one knows what kind of force in the concession has reached, and Mahmoud also thinks that the manpower of Ding Yi in the concession is just thirty or forty Ming soldiers.
As for those blacks, unless they are small giants like boulders, ordinary black natives, in front of the city guards in chain armor and armed with scimitars, as long as they leave the rainforest, their combat effectiveness is not worth mentioning at all. Because the arrows of the beast's bones cannot penetrate the chain armor, and the Arabian war horses running at high speed are outside the rainforest. Enough to make all the athletic talents of the black natives before they had time to show them, and they were hacked to death.
He didn't know that the weapons purchased by Ding Yitong's six shops were armed with those black soldiers.
Mahmoud values. It was Ding Yi's strategy, there were more than twenty people at the beginning, and now there are only thirty or forty people, and they can already secretly control many forces in the wood and bone bundles, even if they don't tear their faces, they are enough to compete with those forces that have developed for decades or even longer, if they tear their faces. Not to mention.
However, as he grew older, Mahmoud felt that it was absolutely impossible for him to be like Ding Yi, so he felt terrified of this ability. and then bow; On a deeper level, it is the fleet mentioned by Ding Yi, according to the father's account, the fleet of the Ming Kingdom is a castle moving on the sea. If you can get such a boost. Mahmoud knew he could see farther, more than just this bundle of bones.
But at least for now, he has not pinned his hopes on Ding Yi's force.
"The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty never ask how many enemies there are." As soon as Ding put down his long knife and looked up at Mahmoud, a smile on his face, and the words that came out of his mouth were as if they were natural. "The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty only ask where the enemy is."
Mahmoud saluted Ding again. Then respectfully withdrew, this is the etiquette learned from Cao Jixiang, now, Mahmoud feels that he is facing Ding Yi, it is indeed necessary to use such a etiquette, the man in front of him, really facing him with his back, it is a faux pas.
He didn't know how Ding Yi would deal with the bodyguards of Hassan and Saleh, and several other small force leaders, who were hundreds of elites equipped with chain armor - even if you count the hundreds of black natives in the concession, Mahmoud thought it was impossible, and they didn't have wiped out the indigenous tribes.
But what Ding Yi said, Mahmoud knew, must be absolutely sure, Ding Yi would say this.
He didn't know what Ding Yi was going to do.
Most people are in awe of the unknown.
If Hassan and Saleh were lured into the concession and Ding Yi would settle them, then there would be no leader outside, and for Mahmoud, it would almost certainly be no surprise that he would really have the wooden bones in his hands.
And Mahmoud knew that luring Hassan and them into the concession did not require a very complicated strategy.
For Hassan had already sent men to him to discuss the matter of seizing the concession.
So all Mahmoud had to do was tell them: "You go into the concession, take down Ding, and if you can't do it, at least open the door of the concession, and I will send someone to do the rest." It's impossible that you don't have to take anything, and then come and talk to me about how the benefits of the casino will be distributed after you take the concession! ā
That's how he sent people to talk to Hassan, Saleh and others, and the latter readily agreed to this condition.
Hassan didn't think it would be difficult to occupy the Ming Concession, they thought about how Mahmoud would rush out and kill Mahmoud when he thought it was done. Mingren, kind and credible, this concept has established a reputation in Mugudushu in the past year, and avenging Mingren is the best excuse to kill Mahmoud.
Saleh entered the concession with his escort on this night, followed by Hassan, who brought eight hundred elite guards in order to achieve the effect of completely defeating Mahmoud; And Hussein, the leader of the mercenaries, also brought more than 40 mercenaries and entered the Ming Concession with them.
For Guo Jin, as usual, asking them to leave the guards behind, Saleh and Hassan didn't feel anything wrong, even if there were only them, Hussein, White Winged Dragon, and the leaders of the other three forces, a total of seven people, and they didn't feel any problem dealing with the Ming nobleman who liked to lie on a woman's lap.
But Hussein mentioned with some trepidation: "He once had a draw with the boulder." ā
"That was more than a year ago." Hassan laughed and shook his head disappretently, "In the past year, he has been busy collecting bitches with wooden bones to go to the concession, and he has bought forty or fifty Arab virgins......" He laughed lewdly, "Someone has seen those virgins walking in the concession, and they are all no longer virgins without exception, do you think about it, after this year, is he still the same as he was at that time?" Besides, if you and I are seven of us, and we suddenly make trouble, it is a boulder, so what? ā
Saleh nodded and said: "Hassan is very right, you don't have to think about it, you still have to think about it, after taking Ding Yi, Mahmood's men will be able to enter and kill those black natives, how will you cut off his head!" It's a pity that the boulder doesn't listen to the call now, and he doesn't know where he went, otherwise it would be excellent to take him into the concession. ā
"Mahmoud has a lot of trust in the Commander, and when the Commander orders his subordinates to do something, I will lead people to raid in and behead Mahmood!" With that, Hussein looked at the white winged dragon, who smiled and nodded, indicating that there was no problem. The leaders of the other three forces also nodded their heads, saying that once the White Wing Dragon led his troops to attack Mahmood, they would definitely follow closely behind.
Naturally, the black defenders of the concession would not take away their weapons, so Hassan met Ding Yi wearing chain mail and a scimitar. When watching Ding Yi lazily resting on Morena's lap, Hassan felt that he should have killed Ding Yi a long time ago, yes, every time he saw this man, it made Hassan feel like a lowly slave.
It's not about whether Ding Yi is pillowed on Morena's lap, Hassan sometimes does this at home, and Ding Yi sometimes gets up to greet them, mainly because Ding Yi's demeanor and momentum make Hassan very uncomfortable.
"Come, my friend, sit down, and have a toast." Ding Yi yawned, and raised the wine glass in his hand half-lying, and no one noticed the gorgeous long knife that was thrown casually on the side.
After Hassan sat down, he suddenly felt bored, why did he talk to a dead corpse? Anyway, they're going to kill Ding Yi today. So he looked at Ding Yi and said to him very sincerely, "I'm sorry, my friend. Then, according to the agreement between him and the White Pterodactyl and the others, he let go of the wine glass in his hand.
Before Hassan could hit the ground, he heard the sound of the scimitar coming out of its sheath, it was the white winged dragon They stood up and drew the scimitar, he looked at Ding Yi, he looked at a dead man, and the next moment he would definitely turn into a dead body. Saleh, who was sitting opposite Hassan, also got up and drew his knife, and for a moment, the sound of the scimitar coming out of its sheath in the house was extremely harsh.
Hassan didn't draw the knife, he wanted to see the horror and panic on Ding Yi's face when he was hacked to death with a knife.
Immediately, there was a scream, but it was the leader of the small force beside the White Pterodactyl, and the tip of a knife peeked out of his chest. Then before Hassan could figure out what was going on, he looked at Ding Yi, who was lying on the woman's lap, and passed by him with a cold light, and a round thing fell into Hassan's arms, and he fixed his eyes on it, but it was Saleh's head!
The wine glass fell to the ground at this time, and the porcelain cup from the distant Ming Dynasty was shattered.
Hassan subconsciously wanted to throw his head away, wanted to let out a roar, and wanted to get up and draw his knife.
But he did not leave Saleh's head at last, nor did he make any sound, for blood gushed frantically from his throat, and as soon as Ding passed by him, he cut his throat with the blade of his hand, and he soon fell on the desk in front of him, and died a thorough death.
"You rarely do it?" Ding Yi asked the white-winged dragon.
The latter didn't know how to answer for a while, of course he wouldn't do it very little, otherwise, how could he climb to the position of the commander of the city guards? He was also a well-known warrior in the City Guard, but he couldn't say it, because apart from the little leader he had killed at the beginning, Ding Yi had already beheaded Saleh;
Wiped Hassan's throat with his hand;
A small leader with a bayonet thrown by Ding Yi embedded in his forehead fell to the ground;
The hilt of the long knife that swept through Hassan's throat smashed the Adam's apple of the other small leader, who was now clutching his throat and convulsing on the ground.
And the long knife in Ding's hand rested on Hussein's neck.
The white winged dragon really didn't know how to answer, he killed one person, Ding Yi killed four people, restrained one person, and more importantly, there was not even a scream the whole time.
Hussein threw down his scimitar and knelt down in horror: "IāI didn't attack you!" I didn't steal anything in the concession or attack the soldiers of the Ming Kingdom! ā
"Does it matter?" Ding Yi listened, smiled and asked Hussein. (To be continued......)
