5-31 Mysterious Lieutenant Colonel

Liu Ziguang is a person who knows the severity, he doesn't talk about personal feelings in front of the big right and wrong, the people in the Song Dynasty are bullied to the nose, even if they are friends, they can't be soft, Zhao Kang is his friend and partner, but now he is an enemy, his hand did not hesitate to draw out the pistol and aim at Zhao Kang.

Zhao Kang was not afraid, pressed the tension spring, the steel knife in his hand was unsheathed, roared, and rushed towards Liu Ziguang, and the four similarly dressed Brigade Song Navy personnel behind him were also unambiguous, drawing knives and following closely behind. And the guards behind Liu Ziguang also raised their short guns one after another, aiming at these guys who dared to use their arms as cars.

"Death by my spear is also your glory." Liu Ziguang silently said, raised his gun and fired, and the moment he pulled the trigger, a powerful arrow broke through the air. The streamlined arrow has very little resistance, so it is much faster than ordinary arrows, and it is fired directly at Liu Ziguang's pistol, smashing the muzzle of the gun, and the bullet flies out diagonally, shattering a piece of green tile on the house next to it.

"Stop!" With a coquettish shout, a black figure fell from the roof on the side of the road, holding a small bow and crossbow in his hand, Liu Ziguang's eyes were poisonous, and he could see at a glance that this crossbow was the same model as the bow and crossbow he picked up at the train station today.

When Zhao Kang saw the man in black appear, he hurriedly stopped and exclaimed, "Eldest sister, why are you here?" ”

The black-clothed man who was called the eldest sister by Zhao Kang took off his mask, revealing a slightly dark but very pretty face, and walked over calmly under the aim of dozens of muskets under Liu Ziguang's subordinates, ignoring his brother, and giving Liu Ziguang a salute first: "Zhao Jing, lieutenant colonel of the Great Song State Navy, see the Ming Dynasty Zhenwu Bo, the commander of the Nanchang, the minister of the guard, and the six major Qincha. ”

"Knowing the prestige of my family, don't kneel down to see you!" The guards deceived her as a woman, and threatened her with muskets.

Liu Ziguang raised a hand to signal his subordinates to stop, he secretly scolded his subordinates in his heart for not studying, he was surnamed Zhao from the Song Kingdom, and he was Zhao Kang's sister, he must be a county lord, in terms of diplomatic etiquette, he was a little taller than Liu Ziguang, the earl.

"What advice does Lieutenant Colonel Zhao have? Do you have to compete with this official? Liu Ziguang's eyes followed Zhao Jing's movements, this woman's martial arts are quite strong, and she is filled with a murderous aura, which is different from the murderous aura of ordinary battlefield veterans, more like the murderous aura of people in the rivers and lakes.

"Wu Bo of Jiuwen Town is the first good man in the Ming Dynasty, and it is certain to ask for advice, but not now, there are more important things to do now." Zhao Jing said coldly.

"Please make it clear in one sentence that this official must have important tasks on his side, and he has no time to talk to you." Liu Ziguang did not relax his vigilance at all, and with the thumb of his right hand, he broke the hammer of the pistol again, ready to shoot at any time.

"Someone intends to provoke a war between Song and Ming, and my responsibility is to stop this war!" Zhao Jing's words are indeed simple and neat.

"Then your task now should be to persuade your compatriots to lay down their arms, instead of running to my horse and talking nonsense, this afternoon your army in the Song State has brazenly attacked me, and our two countries are now at war." Liu Ziguang is unforgiving

, but he also understands a little in his heart, it seems that there are a lot of things behind the scenes of this war, at least the people of the Song Dynasty are not monolithic.

"I know that your army has weapons with great lethality, but the combat effectiveness of our brigade and Song army is not weak, in order to avoid unnecessary casualties on both sides, I suggest that you suspend the attack, and let me find out the mastermind behind the beating war, wouldn't it be better for us to be friendly in the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty." Zhao Jing stared at Liu Ziguang's eyes and said, the aggressive brilliance in his eyes made Liu Ziguang very uncomfortable, but he couldn't refuse this proposal, for the Song Dynasty community where 100,000 people lived, his own strength alone was still a little weak, and it was useless to fight in the streets, and he would definitely lose a lot of manpower in hand-to-hand combat.

Winning without a fight is the highest state of a soldier, Liu Ziguang said without hesitation: "Okay! I'll give you the order to pause the attack, and when you catch the manipulators behind the scenes, I'll give you two hours, and if there is no response, attack as you go. ”

"Okay, it's a deal!" Zhao Jing's face was still cold, and she turned around and was about to leave.

"Eldest sister, I'll go with you." Zhao Kang shouted.

Zhao Jing stopped, turned her head slightly, but quickly turned her face: "You stay, so as to witness our sincerity." With that, he jumped up, jumped up to the house next to him, and disappeared into the sunset with three jumps and two jumps.

Liu Ziguang looked at Zhao Jing's back and secretly exclaimed: This girl's ability to jump over the ridge is more authentic than Liu Xiaomei, and she is definitely not an ordinary naval officer, he turned to Zhao Kang with a sneering expression and asked, "This is your eldest sister?" Why do you have the same name as your brother Zhao Jing? ”

He almost died under Liu Ziguang's gun just now, which made Zhao Kang a little embarrassed, but he is a bright and upright man, since the eldest sister said that there was a villain as a hindrance, then Liu Ziguang is not an enemy, he touched the back of his head and explained: "The eldest sister and the second brother are twins, and we happen to have the word Jing in our family tree, and this word is given to the second brother. ”

"Oh, that's the case, your eldest sister has a very high rank, what is she doing in the navy?"

"It's a secret, and I'm not a brother either." When it comes to confidential issues, Zhao Kang is still very measured.

Liu Ziguang smiled meaningfully and didn't continue to ask, and changed the topic and said: "I'm going to arrest Cheng Liangjue and Chen Ziang now, Zhao Kang, are you interested in going with you?" ”

"Somewhere in my life." Zhao Kang readily agreed, these two big corrupt officials are not only the moths of the Ming Dynasty, but also the black backstage of the smugglers, and the enemies of the Song Dynasty, now there is a chance to arrest them, of course Zhao Kang will not let them go, not to mention that the eldest sister has already ordered him to follow Liu Ziguang as a hostage just now, and the eldest sister's words are military orders and have to be obeyed.

Liu Ziguang asked his subordinates to give a horse to Zhao Kang to ride, and the group ran towards the governor's yamen, and the governor's yamen and the official residence were still heavily guarded in the afternoon, and now there was no one in the palace, Liu Ziguang kicked open the gate and walked in, only to see the maids in the courtyard who were packing up things, and then looked carefully at the original was not cleaning up but looting property, and no one cared about the mess, each person picked up valuable things with a baggage skin, and saw an army coming in so scared that they turned around and ran.

The soldiers fired their guns into the sky, so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and when they caught a few people and asked, they found out that the Governor had already run away with the troops, and Lord Xiao Chen also ran with him.

"It's all from the imperial court, how can you take it indiscriminately? Put it all down! Liu Ziguang was secretly happy in his heart, he liked the work of copying his house the most, Cheng Liangjue's gold and silver were soft and soft, there must be a lot of cultural relics, calligraphy and paintings, and a small fortune was about to arrive.

After blasting these maid servants away, leaving a small flag of soldiers to guard the house, Liu Ziguang took the rest of the guards and Zhao Kang and others and rushed back to the gate of the Song Dynasty settlement, the temporary tent has been set up, in a nearby restaurant, Liu Ziguang led the generals to climb the building to look into the distance, at this time the sky has been dark, through the clairvoyant mirror you can see that the fire in the settlement area is bright, the soldiers in armor are running back and forth, and the people dressed as ordinary people are also helping to transport weapons and food, looking ready to fight.

"Are all the weapons in place?" Liu Ziguang asked.

Weapons of mass destruction are used by the Red Shirts, such as steam repeaters, cannons, ironclad chariots, and airships.

"Back to the marshal, the airship has been in the air, every move in the city is under the observation of our army, the artillery has also been aimed at the gate of the city of Lusong and Song, as well as the cavalry team and the musket team have entered the battle position, just waiting for the commander's order." Anthony pleaded that the battle would be under his full command.

Liu Ziguang nodded and said, "I haven't been idle for a day today, let the brothers rest, let's wait, maybe there will be changes." By the way, have the brothers used up their war meals? ”

"Back to the big handsome. Several restaurants and restaurants in the vicinity were all under the control of the military, and the brothers all went to the restaurant to eat, but they were a little unaccustomed to eating local cuisine. The logistics officer said.

"What about the foreign sailors?" Liu Ziguang continued to ask, the matter on the dock just now was handed over to Zamu to co-organize, and now that he has come to the front line here, it seems that the problem has been solved.

Zha Muhe replied: "Those ghosts are very honest, they counted the list by themselves and sent people back to report the news, they were all obediently arrested, and now they are being watched by Li Peng's people." ”

"Send people to keep an eye on those ocean-going ships, the ghosts and foreigners are scheming, we can't help but guard against it, and send people to find Lai Youwei and Ding Li, Cheng Liangjue has run away, if you want to catch him, you still have to rely on local forces." Liu Ziguang has now entered a wartime state, and his mind is spinning rapidly.

The officers and men of the Red Shirt Regiment also entered a wartime state, and their titles for Liu Ziguang changed from "Lord Qincha" and "Uncle" to "Grand Marshal" with a unified caliber. The soldiers all wore their armor, but only Liu Ziguang had a blood-stained python suit, which looked nondescript.

"Commander Qiqi, Miss Hu sent someone to ask to see." A flag officer walked briskly and said.

"Biography!"

"Qiyu is handsome, the eldest princess has a gift." Another flag officer walked in to report.

"Biography!"

After a while, the two of them walked into the house, Miss Hu sent a capable young man, he sent a set of excellent clothes, this set of armor is not only exquisitely made, and Liu Ziguang's body type is very matching, it is simply tailor-made, this time to go down to the south of the Yangtze River to inspect, Liu Ziguang did not carry armor, Miss Hu's set of clothes can be regarded as a charcoal in the snow.

The eldest princess sent the chief guard and four palace maids, the palace maids carried the vermilion lacquer food box, opened the lid to see, there was a pot of fragrant small fish pot collapsed, at first glance it was made by the eldest princess herself, in addition to a pot of Wuxi sauce pork ribs, a plate of Taihu Lake whitebait, there are not many varieties, but the weight is extremely heavy.

"These are the war meals that the eldest princess gave to your uncle, and I am not grateful." The chief of the guard said solemnly.
