Chapter 159: Night Attack
After the turmoil, Youzhou ushered in a rare and precious calm time, and the Youzhou magnates who were accustomed to bullying people collectively hibernated, so that the devastated people of Xicheng had a rare good night's sleep. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After only one day, the mark of the Viper Gang in Youzhou City has been completely eliminated, as if it has never appeared, only the Guangjin Gambling House, which has been copied, still shows a little clue.
Nowadays, the plaque of the beggar gang has not been completed, so the door in front of the feeding hall is empty, it is worth mentioning that the feeding hall with the homonym of the viper gang has been changed to a simple name - Zhu Yuan, which is the original name of the feeding hall.
Zhu Yuan, who had just experienced a bloody killing, had already washed away all the blood stains, and it seemed quite quiet. Under Duan Pingsheng's instructions, the members of the Beggar Gang carried out a series of transformations to Zhu Yuan, and finally became unpretentious, and they could not see the extravagant scene when the Viper Gang was in charge.
Because many members of the beggar gang accepted Gu Da's dispatch and went to the outside of Youzhou City to appease the emotions of the victims, they did not return for a long time, so Zhu Yuan, who only stayed with a limited number of people, was even more silent, even the sound of birds flapping their wings could be heard clearly.
A team of well-dressed warriors followed Wu Heita's arrangement to patrol in the Zhu Garden, most of these people were the initial members of the Viper Gang who personally participated in the attack and killing, so even if their eyes were almost tired and couldn't open them, they all cheered up and seriously guarded the surroundings.
However, the scale of Zhu Yuan is still a little too large, and their manpower alone is not enough to properly protect it, but if it is dispersed, it will not work. One is because of the strength problem, and the other is because the new members will inevitably have guys who eat inside and out, so those old people need to be monitored.
Therefore, the disadvantages of collective action were also revealed, and a group of people in night clothes sneaked into the high walls of Zhu Yuan without attracting the attention of the patrols.
Whew!
There was a short, slight sound in the Zhu Garden, and then it calmed down, and even the birds in the treetops were not alarmed.
The group carefully hid behind the bunker, waiting for the leader's orders.
Li Jiangbei poked his head out from behind a big tree and quietly looked at the layout of Zhu Yuan, behind him, there were all border army masters, and the two powerful captains were among them.
This operation can be regarded as Li Jiangbei's side counterattack against Duan Pingsheng, if successful, it will definitely be able to thwart his plan to strengthen the beggar gang, although Li Jiangbei does not know what Duan Pingsheng is for, and he has tried his best to establish the beggar gang, but in his opinion, as long as he can pose a threat to Duan Pingsheng, it is a matter of his own benefit.
Therefore, he decided to go into battle in person tonight, leading his soldiers to kill all the remaining troops of the beggar gang in this Zhu Garden, and carry out a series of destruction.
"Major General! Without further ado! It's time for us to act! ”
A certain captain who was a little breathless said loudly, Li Jiangbei frowned slightly, because he didn't wait for the best time in his mind, but seeing the eager eyes of his subordinates, he immediately nodded heavily, and led everyone straight to the hinterland of Zhu Yuan.
For this operation, Luo Baiyu not only gave the green light to these border soldiers to enter the city, but also deliberately issued an order to let the Longmen troops who were patrolling Xicheng go out as soon as possible, which happened to give Li Jiangbei the opportunity to act, so that they could sneak into Zhu Yuan smoothly, not only that, Luo Baiyu also handed over the structure map of Zhu Yuan to Li Jiangbei in advance, so that the latter remembered it.
It's also a little ridiculous, this Zhu Garden is clearly the old property of King Wu's Mansion, when Li Jiangbei was young, he even played here for a while, but now that the times have changed, the specifications of the courtyard have already changed greatly, and Luo Baiyu's instructions are needed so as not to get lost.
Alas!
Li Jiangbei sighed lightly, his eyes showed deep unwillingness, how good would it be if that waste died in Longmian Mountain? Won't the throne just fall to me? As long as I am given time, let alone Zhu Yuan, even the entire Youzhou City can be taken back!
Thinking like this, Li Jiangbei's eyes became more and more determined, and it won't be long before that waste man will die in the Qingluan Hall anyway, and at that time, all the pain he inflicted on me will disappear, and the throne is mine! Women are mine too!
Gritting his teeth, Li Jiangbei did his best and rushed to the hinterland of Zhu Yuan, according to Luo Baiyu's intelligence, the biggest leader of the beggar gang currently staying in Zhu Yuan is the deputy gang leader Xu Boda!
Although in his mind, Xu Boda, who only has a four-story building, is really a little unsightly, but it is undeniable that as one of the founding members of the beggar gang, Duan Pingsheng's henchman, as long as he can cut off his head, he will definitely make Duan Pingsheng sigh, hinder the development of the beggar gang, and also deal a serious blow to Duan Pingsheng's prestige.
Following the scene in their memory, combined with the map above, Li Jiangbei and the others quickly rushed outside Xu Boda's residence.
At this moment, the honest Xu Boda, who had just finished practicing, was dragging his tired body to sleep, and he didn't notice the approaching crisis.
After all, no one could have imagined that the territory they had just laid down on their side would be concocted by someone the next day and come to secretly attack and kill.
Li Jiangbei and the others took advantage of the fact that the patrol officers had just left, and rushed to a small courtyard, which was Xu Boda's residence.
The two lieutenants with real power received Li Jiangbei's eye signal, and immediately climbed into the courtyard wall, in their opinion, to deal with a warrior in a mere quadruple building, one person is enough, but the major general actually ordered both of them to shoot, it is really a knife to kill chickens, and it is useless.
Although they were a little resentful in their hearts, the two did not dare to have the slightest disobedience to Li Jiangbei's instructions, and after quietly landing on the ground, they glanced at each other, looked at the house where the lights had just been extinguished, showed their troops, and quietly sneaked away.
Li Jiangbei, who was waiting outside, ordered his other subordinates to guard the surroundings, and once they found that the wind and grass were blowing, they would immediately take action, and they would be killed.
The atmosphere of silence made the air extremely silent, and the insects in the weeds were particularly harsh.
Immersed in silence, Li Jiangbei silently waited for the two subordinates to take action, and for some reason, a trace of apprehension suddenly appeared in his heart.
That waste worked so hard to take down the Viper Gang, was it so easily ruined by himself?
Li Jiangbei suddenly remembered that when he met Luo Baiyu today, the other party's words were full of confidence, as if things were as easy as pushing the boat down the river, forgive him Duan Pingsheng's hands and eyes were all over the sky, and he would not have thought that they would pick such a knot and launch a surprise attack.
But will it really be as easy as expected?
Li Jiangbei's mind couldn't help but sink, he felt that things would not go as smoothly as expected, but the matter had come to this point, and he had nothing to regret, he could only ensure that he landed steadily at every step and tried not to make mistakes.
Crunch!
"Who is it?"
The creak of the door opening was particularly harsh in the silent courtyard, followed by Xu Boda's questioning voice, followed by several rag-like sounds, and no other sound.
Got it!
Li Jiangbei clenched his fists heavily, and the apprehension in his heart calmed down slightly, it seems that that waste is just a little shrewd on the surface, no matter how detailed his plan is, it is impossible to predict his every step!
A slight smile rippled on his cheeks, Li Jiangbei's tense body couldn't help relaxing, he gradually thought that tonight's action would definitely be smooth, but after a while, his expression changed, because Li Jiangbei noticed something wrong!
That is, after those two lieutenants succeeded, why didn't they show up for a long time?
Li Jiangbei looked back at his subordinates, and found that these people were also looking at each other blankly, and the fiery thoughts in his heart suddenly cooled, and he felt that the situation he didn't want to see the most was likely to become a reality.
Li Jiangbei turned his head to look at the dark courtyard gate, thinking about whether to go or stay, if he left like this, he might be safe, but he didn't see the scene in the courtyard with his own eyes, but he was extremely unwilling in his heart!
With no other way, Li Jiangbei decided to let one of his subordinates explore the way first.
A brave soldier was quickly elected by everyone, Li Jiangbei nodded heavily to him, and the soldier swallowed his saliva, took the war knife, gritted his teeth and jumped over the courtyard wall.
It seemed that it was due to the violent landing that there was a heavy sound of stepping on the ground, but what made everyone creepy was that after the sound disappeared, the soldier did not move again.
Everyone listened with bated breath for a long time, but they didn't hear even the slightest sound, but the insects in the weeds outside the courtyard gate were even more harsh.
This......
Li Jiangbei's subordinates were all frightened, and involuntarily took a step outward, away from the increasingly gloomy courtyard wall, they didn't dare to leave like this, because Li Jiangbei had not yet spoken, under the strict control of the general, these soldiers who still had some martial arts could maintain their last rationality and did not forget the existence of military orders.
However, Li Jiangbei was in a dilemma at this time, he wanted to lead his subordinates to leave, but he was very worried that the mysterious existence in the courtyard would stop him, and he also thought about pushing the door directly, but as time passed, the more he couldn't muster up his courage.
Could it be that it just goes on like this?
Li Jiangbei thought so in his heart, but the existence in the courtyard didn't want to continue to waste time, so he only heard a graceful female voice that penetrated into the bone marrow come out of the door: "Young General, why don't you enter the door?" The slave family is a little impatient to wait. ”
"Who is this?"
Li Jiangbei was stunned suddenly, trying his best to think about the identity of the owner of this voice, he felt that he had heard it somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
But just when he hesitated, his subordinates became more and more flustered, they thought about it, they all felt that there was a female goblin sitting in the courtyard who ate people and did not spit out bones, and some people couldn't help but retreat, especially since they spent a lot of time here, maybe when, the members of the beggar gang on patrol would find out about their existence.
"To go in or not to go in?"
Li Jiangbei was still hesitant, but the woman in the door made a decision for him.
Rumble!
I only heard a bang in my ears, and the door of the courtyard was broken open by a huge force, and when Li Jiangbei just reacted, he was involuntarily sucked into the courtyard and saw the woman who spoke out.
"It's you!" Li Jiangbei frowned, revealing a sudden look, "Nian Nujiao!" ”
Yes, this woman who calls herself a slave is the owner of the Drunken Moon Building, Nian Nujiao!
Nian Nujiao, who was dressed in a graceful gauze robe, glanced at Li Jiangbei, who looked uncertain, provocatively, slowly finished his work, and stood behind Duan Pingsheng.
And Xu Boda, who should have been killed by the two captains, was also standing behind Duan Pingsheng, and in addition, Han Xiao was also present, sitting next to Duan Pingsheng, eating pastries deliciously, turning a blind eye to the three people who had already died.
Glancing at his dead subordinates, Li Jiangbei stared at Duan Pingsheng with complicated eyes, and said coldly, "How did you know that I would surprise Zhu Yuan today?" ”
"Do you need to ask?"
Duan Pingsheng replied lightly: "Do you think that this king will not spy on the hundreds of elite soldiers stationed outside the city?" ”
Although the beggar gang has just taken shape, it already has the most basic information network, Duan Pingsheng has long been instructed to go down, always monitor the border army stationed outside Youzhou City, as soon as there is a disturbance, it will immediately reach Duan Pingsheng's ears, Li Jiangbei wants to use these people to settle the beggar gang, it is simply wishful thinking.
Thinking of this, Li Jiangbei sighed a little dejectedly, he gritted his teeth, pointed at his dead subordinates, and scolded angrily: "You shouldn't kill my subordinates!" ”
"Whew!"
Duan Pingsheng sneered and asked rhetorically, "Why?" ”
"They should die at the border, but they shouldn't die at your hands!"
Li Jiangbei gritted his teeth and said, his eyes were full of resentment, and he had no idea of resigning himself to compromise.
Duan Pingsheng snorted coldly: "How can this be reasonable? What is the reason why you have instructed them to come and kill the king's men, but you have not allowed the king to do so? ”
"You killed my men, have you thought about how to explain it?"
Li Jiangbei was extremely annoyed, and said indignantly, Duan Pingsheng frowned: "Confess? What do you need to explain? Who do I need to give an account to? The general? Or is it Lord Thorn? ”
"No matter who it is, you can't explain it! The soldiers of the border army died in Zhuyuan for no reason, this sin, do you think you can bear it? ”
"Haha!" Duan Pingsheng looked coldly at the angry Li Jiangbei, "You said they are border soldiers?" Can anyone prove it? ”
"Me!"
Li Jiangbei said as he should, but he looked at Duan Pingsheng's extremely calm expression, his expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "What do you mean?" ”
"It's not interesting!"
Duan Pingsheng said quietly: "The remnants of the Viper Gang want to fight back against the beggar gang tonight, this king is famous, detect it early, and kill all the thieves!" ”
Hearing this, Han Nuxia, who was sitting next to her, snorted softly, and her small eyes looked at Duan Pingsheng, as if to say that he was shameless. But Li Jiangbei was shocked by Duan Pingsheng's words, and shouted in disbelief: "No! That's impossible! Aren't you afraid that I'll expose you? ”
Li Jiangbei didn't think he would die here, there was no reason.
And Duan Pingsheng really didn't have the heart to kill Li Jiangbei here, because he had his reasons.
"No, of course not!"
Duan Pingsheng sneered: "Because you have no chance to expose me!" ”
