I am king in troubled times Chapter 13 The coquettish secret service
The cricket said to his worries to the sixth son: "Sixth brother, which carriage will arrive at which street and which location is stuck, there have been more than one exercise in the past two months, and now there are still three people separated, I am afraid that it has been ......."
The meaning is very clear, in order to eliminate everyone's nervousness and prevent mistakes in the busy, the task released today is still a fixed-route driving exercise, and there have been cases of delays or early arrival at the designated place before, but there has never been a delay of an hour and did not arrive at the meeting point, and the only explanation is sacrifice or capture.
The sixth son was a little uneasy, he was a big deal, and his family's status and treatment were at least two levels higher afterwards, and the insurance fraud was not so neat. The point is that he is also tasked with assisting the special forces and transferring people to Jixiangling, and if his people make a mistake and the mission fails, he really wants to end his own death.
"Captain Gu, I have left Xiazhou City at this time, and the role I can play will become less and less, you command, there will be a contest next, the young master said that professional things should be left to professional people to do, I will listen to you." "Liuzi is very single, not to shirk responsibility, but the real idea is that this is the case, and it is imperative to do everything possible to complete the task at present.
Seeing that the six sons did not seem to be fake, the next hard battle was indeed indispensable, and he really couldn't let go of his hands and feet under the command of others, so he simply said cheerfully: "Okay, the little brother will be entrusted, and you and I can each hand in a copy of the Times." ”
The so-called Times refers to real-time war reports, and when the plan changes, there must be a Times when things are decided on the spot, and the so-called one person is private and two people are public, Wang Xuan just hopes that when necessary, he will be able to accept military orders outside.
After a group of twenty-three people briefly used some pastries, they quietly waited for the night to fall, and the members of the first special service team had dispersed to inquire about the surrounding situation, only the crickets were still by the side of His Royal Highness's family, closing his eyes and resting his mind, which was his duty.
"Can you show me your knife?"
At this time, a childish child's voice woke him up, he opened his sparse eyes and followed the voice, only to see the son of the Zhao family standing on his left side, facing the afterglow, looking at him with big round eyes, a pair of white and tender hands were a little helpless, very restless.
"Well, be careful. As soon as the cricket stretched out his left hand, he handed him the Tang knife with the scabbard.
The boy happily took it with both hands, laboriously turned the knife head down, and pulled out the knife with his right hand. However, he was short in stature, and he didn't have the strength to support his idea with one hand, so he gave up after trying a few times.
Seeing this, the cricket asked curiously: "Why is the prince interested in this murder weapon, could it be that he has also practiced martial arts since he was a child?"
The boy said, "I want to avenge my father." ”
There are some differences between the crickets, and the boy of the drooping age would have such an idea, which really opened his eyes, so he said casually: "The second highness is fine now, how can you take revenge?"
The boy said: "Sooner or later, I know my father better than you, he is stupid to read." ”
At this time, the cricket was not easy to answer, and after a moment of silence, he pulled out a half-foot-long stainless steel dagger from the trouser leg of the calf, cut a bamboo and sharpened it, and after a while, a bamboo knife about two feet long was completed.
"Then, this bamboo knife is for you, and if it's bigger, change it to a real guy. ”
After the boy took the bamboo knife, he waved it a few times seriously, very satisfied, turned his head to the cricket and said, "I remember you, you are good." ”
The cricket choked on this sentence for a long time and didn't come back to her senses, so in order to relieve the embarrassment, she had to get up and walk around, waiting for the team members to send back new news.
Night has fallen, and the stars in the sky are dazzling, and from time to time they shimmer with intoxicating light, making people linger.
The boy raised his head and stared at the sky in a daze, and the princess, the side concubine and the sturdy nurse were also around him, for fear that the rising night wind would hurt the boy's delicate skin, and looked around from time to time. According to the judgment of the cricket, this sturdy middle-aged woman is extraordinary, she is a practitioner, and now the whole family is concerned about the male baby, and it is understandable that the whole family is concerned about the male baby, and only sighs that God will make people, and the cause and effect of the father's generation needs to be solved by the children.
"Princess, you two and this grandmother will follow me and wait behind, and the three children will go first with the sixth brother. Although the crickets acted as a courtesy for instructions, the tone was unquestionable.
"Everything is at the command of the general. At this time, the princess did not act like an ordinary woman as a daughter, and turned to the three children, "You three obey all orders, and must not disobey them." ”
"Yes, please be relieved. The three children immediately replied obediently.
Later, after the six sons exchanged with the cricket, they took his people and the three children all the way to the north, and the nine members of the special service team went all the way to the west after sweeping away the traces of the six sons.
Soon after the two groups left, the inspection team of the King's Guard pursued the area, and after some exploration, the large force pursued the Xingyao River to the west, and the small force searched for looming traces to the north.
The crickets did not hide their traces too much, and when the group of twelve people arrived at a canyon in the middle of the night, the eldest and third members of the first team began to arrange on the valley walls on both sides. At the other end of the silk thread was attached to the lead of the explosives buried in the valley wall, and the root of the torch was tied to the outside, and the outside was blocked by stones, so that no fire could be seen.
Once the silk thread is pulled, the torches will tilt and ignite the explosive fuses above, blowing up both sides of the canyon, which can not only block the road and slow down the local pursuit, but also maximize the damage to the pursuers, so that they dare not pursue recklessly.
After swaggering and cooking some hot food, the crowd cleaned up and walked through the canyon and headed straight for the riverside pier.
"Boss, this earthen stove is still hot, and they haven't gone far. A small leader looked at it and said to the inspector.
"Don't you think things are going too well, and if you're on the run, you'll leave such a visible mark?" the captain mused.
"Could it be that the other party did it on purpose?" said the little leader, who was also a little uncertain.
"As long as people are still under the control of the royal capital, it is the same everywhere, eat this elite of the rebel army first. With that, the captain let the inspection team pass through the canyon in batches, and he pressed in the rear, and the foreboding in his heart made him make such a decision, and he escaped.
A moment later, when the front team passed through the narrowest part of the canyon, the walls of the valley on both sides shone with dazzling light, piercing the eyes of the people, and then there was a roar, like thunder exploding in the ears, shaking the ears of the people, and suddenly losing the ability to judge.
The dust and mist that obscured the sky and the sun rushed to both ends of the canyon, and the choking people could not breathe well and coughed incessantly. It wasn't until a stick of incense that everyone eased their minds a little, hoping that their vision would be clear, and the canyon passage in front of them had been buried by gravel of different sizes, where could they still find the traces of more than 100 forwards!
The captain of the inspection team wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and at this time he still had palpitations, and secretly rejoiced that he had escaped. Immediately, while arranging for people to return to the royal capital to report the news, he ordered everyone to clean up the passage.
After hearing the loud noise, the first special service team in front looked at each other and smiled, and the old man said: "Captain, do you say that they will go all out to hunt us down and ignore the sixth brother and them?"
The cricket thought for a while and said: "It's difficult, we have fought each other more than ten times, although we have the upper hand, but the advantage is not big, and there is no special way to press the bottom of the box to find them." ”
"What about them?"
"It's just that it's possible to find traces, whether they can be caught or not is still two words, and the back hand arranged by the lord has not yet exerted force, and the possibility of the sixth brother and them escaping back is still quite large. "Cricket is not worried about the safety of the sixth brother, and he has a good attitude.
"There is the ferry in front, the second and sixth children hurriedly arranged it, and the seventh and eighth children put on makeup for them. The cricket then instructed the brothers to disguise the two princesses and the nurse.
One moment she was a noble lady surrounded by pearls and greenery, and the next moment she was a simple and unpretentious flower boat servant. I don't know where to find the three charming women, and a group of nine people got on the boat and performed. The remaining second, third, sixth, seventh, eighth, and youngest boats left first, leading away the pursuers.
"Captain, I have inquired, and the boat has just left the ferry, and I am about to catch up. Another small leader said.
"Have you checked all around?" asked the captain with some unease.
"There are a few flower boats, and all the men on board have checked them, either to the wealthy merchants, or to the leaders of the boats. As for the women, they are all drunk and red-faced, and there is nothing unusual about the subordinates. The little boss replied.
"Leave a ten-person team to stand guard at the dock, check suspicious people, and immediately warn if something is abnormal. The rest of the men went upstream by land to intercept, and the other pursued by water. The captain of the inspection team led a team to pursue him by land, and the little leader had no choice but to chase him by water.
After seeing everyone leaving, the cricket wanted to row the flower boat to follow slowly, turn to the land route before the other party returned, and successfully jumped out of the encirclement.
But the other party left more than a dozen people are very vigilant, seeing that the overnight flower boat is actually going south, so they subconsciously stop it, although they can't find a flaw for the time being, but in line with the idea of no mistake is to stop it, to be dealt with by the inspection team.
When the special service team saw that there was only a lonely ten-person team stationed there, they became murderous, on the one hand, to facilitate the smooth escape from the predicament, and on the other hand, to tell the other party that they had escaped from here, and to exchange time for space to create opportunities for the sixth brother and them.
The fourth child, who is good at stealing assassination, disguise and traps, stayed in the palace and dressed up as an old man to clean the courtyard, only the crickets, the fifth, the ninth and the three women who are good at fighting stayed in the flower boat, and they are the only ones to clear the obstacles at this moment.
After the tea, ten members of the inspection team of the King's Guard were buried in a reed swing by the river, and their clothes with the emblem of the guard were stripped away for later use. Lao Jiu also left some souvenirs before leaving, I hope they will like it.
Subsequently, the flower boat swaggered away from the dock and sailed slowly southward, accompanied by two other Cao Gang flower boats, and the six sons had already taken care of it, and this matter had nothing to do with the special service.
At this time, a bearded man on the flower boat of the Cao Gang said very angrily: "This sixth son said that he would get on the ship at this time and go to the watch territory with us and others, it seems that he has missed the time." According to him, he should have taken the land route, or if he had arrived first, he would have taken care of everything for us, and then he would have enjoyed the success. With that, the rough men on the boat burst out laughing, as if they were glad that they were about to save a sum of money.
At first, the two princesses were not used to the restrained dress and ugly appearance, and their words and actions always did not match their current status, but after experiencing the pursuers, they gradually let go. In order to achieve the authenticity of the fish and the eyes, the three women did not leave the skin throughout the makeup, and the etiquette did not avoid people, all of them were learned and used. Everyone also treated him completely as a servant, and some unreasonable details were pointed out and perfected by everyone one by one.
A day later, the crickets went ashore in the west of the Beixingyao River, and with the auspicious convoy transporting iron ore arrived at Xishanling, the Sun family was holding a feast, waiting for the arrival of the auspicious nobles.
