Chapter 259: The Assassin's Suspicion (9)
Ling Jingyang and Zhu Youzhen almost thought at the same time that the Fusang people must be Fusang people, they carried out assassinations in the city, and bewitched the military and civilians who did not know the truth, to provoke the relationship between the Dashun army and the Ming army, only in this way can the war in the land of China burn more fiercely, and the blood of the land of China will continue to be consumed.
Ling Jingyang suddenly had a wonderful idea, so he deliberately provoked Wang Tiedao.
"Do you dare to make a bet with me?"
Wang Tiedao is as his name suggests, his head is very iron, and he should come down in one breath, Ling Jingyang said to him: "You go through the road you came from again, see who is spreading rumors, if you can do it, you, and your subordinates can live, if you can't do it, commit suicide to thank the world." β
This made Wang Tiedao really a little embarrassed, Ling Jingyang asked him to rest in the barracks for a while, wait for Fang Xiaoyan to come back, and let him lead Fang Xiaoyan and the others to go back and bring back those who spread rumors.
And he also has to wait for Fang Xiaoyan to come back, maybe Fang Xiaoyan can bring him more information.
Fang Xiaoyan did not disappoint him, he led more than twenty Iron Fist Legion soldiers such as Jin Tian Er, followed the vice president of the Black Dragon Society Shanxi, and followed him all the way to Xugou City, on the way Jin Tian Er told him that the vice president and the emperor were very close, and I heard that it was still the imperial family.
But I don't know his name, but the president calls him Mei Shaozuo.
"Mei Shaozuo, what is this name?"
Fang Xiaoyan didn't care about this, after seeing Mei Shaozuo enter Xugou City with his subordinates, he asked one of his subordinates to force a rush in front of the Fusang people, and say hello to Bai Dun, who was recruiting troops in the city, as long as this group of people entered Xugou City, he would pay close attention to their foothold, and after they completely settled, they would be annihilated in one fell swoop.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
After Bai Dun got Fang Xiaoyan's help, he led half of the city defense army on the city wall, and watched as he watched the others enter the city, and his eyes kept following this group of Fusang people.
Mei Shaozuo is very excited today, these Ming people are really uneducated, and he also admires his superior, that is, Mei Zhongzuo, the chairman of the Shanxi branch, they don't use their real names to the outside world, they are all called by their respective code names.
Before coming to the land of China, Mei Zhongzuo told him that the empire had been operating in the Central Plains for several years, and that it was finally after that, that he was assigned to Shanxi, where he served as vice president.
The chairman told him that this time the public opinion war was launched, mainly because the imperial top brass learned that the Ming Emperor was still alive, and also tried to join forces with the Dashun army to resist the Qing army's attack.
The emperor and the generals and other high-ranking officials of the empire almost exploded, and immediately ordered to spread the collusion between the Ming emperor and the Qing army in the Jiangbei area, sabotage the alliance between the Ming army and the Dashun army, let it rebel in the nest, and let the Qing army grow its power.
Mei Shaozuo actually did not support the high-level to do this, which would only make the Qing army stronger and stronger, but Mei Zhongzuo asked him to implement the plan unconditionally, telling him that the Qing army was not so strong, but the Dashun army and the Ming army had infinite potential, and it was necessary to let the Ming army, the Qing army, and the Dashun army continue to fight and bleed, exhaust the vitality of the three parties, and create a favorable opportunity for the empire to conquer the mainland.
Mei Shaozuo followed Mei Zhongzuo's orders, led his subordinates to disguise themselves as refugees, and traveled around the Central Plains, as long as he saw the ranks of the Ming people, he would come up and spread rumors among them, and also let some of his subordinates shave their hair and wear Qing army uniforms, while other parts of their subordinates wore Ming army uniforms.
The two groups of people mixed together and rushed into the people to kill, and many people who did not know the truth mistakenly thought that they knew it
Qing becomes one.
At the same time, the Fusang people also spread rumors in other provinces, rumors of all kinds, but finally pointed the finger at the Ming army and the Qing army to defeat the Dashun army, rumors are like snowballs, although they can not harass the Dashun army and the Qing high-level, but Wang Tiedao and other low-level soldiers and civilians are convinced, mistakenly believe that the Dashun army was defeated by the Ming army and the Qing army.
So there was Wang Tiedao led to the storming of the palace, although the attack on the palace failed, but caused hundreds of losses of soldiers and civilians in the city, Mei Shaozuo watched with relish, and returned to Xugou City in the afternoon.
He came to a very ordinary house in the city, the owner of which he had long since killed and thrown him into a mass grave outside the city, and there were three Fuso people in the house, and when they saw him return, they all got up to meet him.
Mei Shaozuo and his subordinates nodded, and went straight to the courtyard behind the room, there is a small arsenal here, which contains the most advanced weapons sent by the empire, the assassination of the Ming Emperor last night failed, the Ming people will not give up, and I don't know if the ten subordinates who carried out the assassination operation are loyal to the empire, if they are captured by the Ming people, maybe they will not be able to stand the torture and tell them out.
He said to his men: "Bring your weapons and withdraw." β
A samurai replied in a loud voiceβHi
Mei Shaozo pulled out his katana, and once he cut off the head of the samurai who answered Hi, he looked at the others coldly.
"I've said many times that there is no language that betrays the customs of the Empire, and any of you will have a next time, like him, with his head on the ground."
He suddenly saw the katana in his hand, and immediately said to his subordinates: "What weapons did they bring with them in the assassination operation last night?" β
His subordinates replied to him, bringing with them a tiger squat cannon, five cannonballs, two firearms and projectiles, a crossbow and arrowhead, and two katanas.
Mei Shaozuo exclaimed: "What, there is also a katana." β
He gave up this stronghold near Yuci City, and hurriedly ordered a retreat to Taiyuan City, a group of people immediately brought silver and weapons, just opened the door, and was rushed up by a group of Ming soldiers with spears, the first two warriors were stabbed into sugar gourds by Ming soldiers with spears, Mei Shaozuo pulled out a katana, and wanted to kill a bloody road.
Suddenly, a rope fell from the sky, hooked his neck, and pulled hard, his whole person was pulled into the air, this is Fang Xiaoyan's unique stunt, it is a skill he learned with Jiannu in the horse herding outside the pass, at this time, Mei Shaozuo was pulled out by the rope, and the others were also hacked to death and injured by the Ming army.
He suddenly saw Kanedaji standing in the ranks of the Ming army.
"Yaga, your Yaga."
Bai Dun stepped forward, and a big ear scraper, which hit Mei Shaozuo's cheeks swollen.
"What's the matter, it's still Baga, I'll let you Baga, let you Baga."
Bai Dun slapped Mei Shaozuo more than 20 times, hitting Mei Shaozuo's cheeks like a pig's head, Fang Xiaoyan and Bai Dun expressed their gratitude, but Bai Dun politely said that this was what he should, but he and Fang Xiaoyan had a request.
"Little eyes, I'm not in the city, you have to take care of my eldest lady."
Fang Xiaoyan immediately remembered that this morning, Dong Daqi took his own soldiers from outside the city to inside the city, so he didn't have to think that he must have gone to see Bai Lushui.
He said to Bai Dun: "Brother Bai, don't worry, Miss Bai is our husband who has not passed the door."
People, who dares to mess with her? β
"That's, that's, General Bai asked me to lead the troops to protect the eldest lady, but you see that my soldiers are not all divided by you, you have to protect Miss Bai."
After speaking, Bai Dun led the troops to continue recruiting troops in the city.
Fang Xiaoyan nodded with him, and led his subordinates to bring Mei Shaozuo and the other three Fusang people back to Yuci City, along the way, the four Fusang people kept kicking around, very uncooperative, Fang Xiaoyan and Jin Tian Er made a look, Jin Tian Er came to Mei Shaozuo with a cruel smile.
Mei Shaozuo looked at this pariah in horror, Jin Tianer asked two Iron Fist soldiers to pry Mei Shaozuo's mouth open, and then found a dagger, stabbed into Mei Shaozuo's mouth at once, the tip of the knife was on Mei Shaozuo's big plate tooth, a stir, Mei Shaozuo's plate tooth was dug out alive.
The pain of tooth pulling made Mei Shaozuo scream, and the other three were so frightened that they honestly followed the Iron Fist Legion back, on the way back, Fang Xiaoyan saw the Iron Fist Legion soldiers who came to support, and thought that maybe there were Fusang assassins in Xugou City, so let the Iron Fist soldiers go to Xugou City and cooperate with Baidun to suppress the enemy.
When they returned to the city, it was already dark, Ling Jingyang was still waiting for him to come back in the barracks, during this day, Wen Yuanyang sent him a roast chicken, the roast chicken was coated with honey, very sweet and sweet, Ling Jingyang was not used to eating sweets, and was surprised how Wen Yuanyang's style changed greatly, from a dessert master to a barbecue sister-in-law?
Wen Yuanyang's style changed, or because she was ridiculed by Bai Lushui last time, and she only knew how to make some soup and water for Ling Jingyang, which would make Ling Jingyang, a mighty man, eat enough?
So this time she specially burned a honey chicken for Ling Jingyang, in order to cook the chicken, her little face was covered with smoky smoke, and in the end it was the maid who cooked the whole chicken with her, and she ingeniously smeared the chicken with honey.
After serving it to Ling Jingyang, Ling Jingyang smelled the fragrance of chicken from afar, but he tore off a piece of chicken, but it was sweet in his mouth, and he was a little tired, seeing that Ling Jingyang only ate a piece of chicken, he put it down, Wen Yuanyang's eyes were wet, and he was very aggrieved, Ling Jingyang smiled with her.
"Miss Wen, I'm really not used to eating sweets, you sit down, eat the chicken coated with honey outside, and give me the rest."
Wen Yuanyang sat down and ate chicken with Ling Jingyang, eating and eating, she also felt a little tired, it seemed that she put too much honey, not only that, but when she roasted the chicken, she also put a handful of sugar on the chicken belly noodles, and now it is really difficult to swallow.
At this time, Bai Lushui came in with a clay pot, and saw Ling Jingyang watching Wen Mandarin Duck eating chicken, his little eyes rolled over, he came to Ling Jingyang, and put down the crockpot, Ling Jingyang hurriedly leaned his head over, and sucked hard with his nose, it was so fragrant.
Bai Lushui seemed to show off, opened the lid of the crockpot, and a smell of eggplant accompanied by the fragrance of pork came to his nose, and the whole room was filled with an appetizing smell, Ling Jingyang asked Bai Lushui, what kind of dish is this, why is it so fragrant?
"Eggplant stew in a casserole, you can taste it."
Ling Jingyang tasted it with chopsticks, the eggplant melted in his mouth, the pork was chopped into meat foam, and the meat foam was steamed at high temperature with the eggplant, and then formed into a ball, clamped up a piece of meat, accompanied by the eggplant in his mouth, that feeling, Ling Jingyang seemed to be in the sky, and his taste buds were about to explode.
"It's... It's so delicious, is there rice? β
"Yes."
