The Cao Gang began to simply clean up the battlefield, they were people from the rivers and lakes, and they were not interested in using their heads to repay their merits, so they didn't bother to look at the corpses of the Japanese Kou at all, but just found the corpses of their companions from the battlefield and carried them back to the boat.

Yi Yun is not interested in the things of ordinary Japanese robbers, but the Nanban Shizu on Imagawa Demichi is quite pleasing to him, and this so-called "Nanban Shizu" is to put it bluntly, it is European-style armor.

At that time, the world was in the Age of Discovery, the merchants of Spain and Portugal crossed the sea, and brought the science and technology from the other side of the distant world, including this European-style full-body armor, after the blacksmiths of Fuso studied the beating armor, it was changed a little, and it was made into "Nanban Shizu", also known as "Nanban Guzu", or "Nanban carcass", very beautiful and beautiful, and the defense is also very good, and many armor collectors in later generations like to collect this kind of armor.

Iyun used to watch a lot of cartoons and movies, and he was very fond of this kind of Nanban Possession, so he took it as his own trophy and took it from the corpse of Imagawa Demichi. and the exquisite Cangsan Sun and Moon Bow, simply take it away.

Back on the ship, Zhou Lanye began to arrange expressionlessly to help the people salvage the sunken ship.

In fact, the sailors of the Cao Gang often do the work of cleaning up the river, because their own grain carriers occasionally capsize in the canal, and when this happens, they must dive into the water and salvage the grain ships in the water together with the grain from the sinking river.

The salvage method is also quite simple, first dive into the water, wrap the rope around the grain bag, and then the people on the boat use the noose to pull up the grain bag, after the grain bag is pulled up, the boat is light, and it is easy to pull it out of the water.

Now the same operation method is used for salvaging shipwrecks in the middle of the river, only need to wrap the stones with a rope first, and then pull up the stones one by one and throw them on the shore, waiting for the stones to be fished out. The boat is light and can be easily removed.

When the salvage work was going on for about half an hour, the Grim Reaper girl also returned, and after she came back, she didn't talk nonsense, just leaned over to Yi Yun and whispered, "The messenger has been killed...... There will be no reinforcements from the Japanese in the near future. ”

"Yo, yes, you do something. I'm relieved!" Yi Yun laughed.

"Now it's time to settle the score. The Grim Reaper snorted, "When I went to pursue the messenger, you reached out and pinched my waist, it was too rude, how are you going to compensate me?"

"Wow. Why do you hold such a grudge against this woman?" Yi Yun said unhappily: "Forget it, my waist will be pinched twice for you...... Let's tie. ”

Girl of Death: "......"

She angrily waved her fist at Yi Yun: "Sooner or later, let you know that death is not easy to mess with, and you will definitely pay the price for offending me." ”

"Okay, I'll pay the price. Yi Yun spread his hands and said, "In order to compensate you, I handed over my son to you as a hostage, what do you think?"

"Hmm, do you have a son?" said Grim Reaper's sister.

"Not yet, but I can put one in your stomach and give it to you as a hostage for ten months......" Yi Yun said shamelessly, "You can return it to me in ten months." ”

Girl of Death: "......"

"Roll over and play!"

"Wowhaha. Bullying the fifth-order Grim Reaper is really fun. Eyun laughed maniacally.

Zhou Lanye shook his head expressionlessly beside him, and said in a low voice: "If you change a man to bully death like this, you would have become a dead man a long time ago, you stinky man, you really don't know how to be blessed in the midst of blessings." ”

Yi Yun winked at her and smiled evilly, "I just know." That's why I bullied her, wahaha, if I didn't know, I wouldn't dare to bully her. ”

Zhou Lanye: "......"...,――

The sailors of the Cao Gang moved very fast, and two hours later, the wreck in the river had been salvaged, and Zhou Lanye waved his hand, and the golden light burst out on the incense boat. The whole fleet was speeding up again.

After passing Shijitou, Suzhou is not far away, and the Japanese have no more ambushes, after all, the Japanese only have 10,000 troops, and it is not so easy to besiege Hangzhou, and it is impossible to set up defenses everywhere.

After half a day of wild sailing north. The fleet finally rushed into the lake.

Taihu Lake is the second largest freshwater lake in Dameng Country, located in the west city of Suzhou, and is part of Suzhou. Many years ago, Taihu Lake was still a sand lake, full of sand rolling, and the sand perch in the lake was rampant and devoured an unknown number of humans.

Hundreds of years ago, the fishermen on the shore of Taihu Lake invited some Taoist priests from Longhu Mountain to form a huge hunting team, and the fishermen thought of netting or fishing the sand perch, and then the Taoist priests shot and killed. As a result, a fisherman cast a net into the lake, but instead of catching the sand perch, he caught a huge cork plug, which was pulled out of the lake by the whole group, so that the lake was no longer a sand lake, but a huge freshwater lake. This cork is still enshrined in the city of Suzhou.

Yi Yun and the Cao Gang's troop transport ships entered Taihu Lake and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It is impossible to have a Japanese Kou here, because Suzhou is a special location, the waterways are staggered, the Japanese have not attacked here for the time being, and Taihu Lake is also a very special place, it is an important part of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, the Suzhou rudder of the Cao Gang is extremely strong, not worse than the scale of the Hangzhou rudder, and you can get a large number of reinforcements here.

Sure enough, the general rudder ship just appeared on Taihu Lake, and a large number of ships immediately poured in from all directions, some large and some small, fishing boats, merchant ships, and passenger ships...... Wherever the incense boat goes, the disciples of the Cao Gang must bow and worship!

Zhou Lanye stood at the bow of the ship and said loudly: "Pass my order, the Suzhou rudder will be urgently assembled, mobilize all the second-order and above combat professions, and prepare to fight a big battle against the Japanese invaders." ”

"Yes!"

The ships of the Cao Gang dispersed with a bang, and after a few hours, many ships surrounded again, this time, all of them were elites above the second order, Yi Yun swept his eyes casually, at least there were more than a thousand second-order warriors.

Zhou Lanye glanced at the Death Sister, and said seriously: "Pavilion Master, my Cao Gang plans to dispatch more than 2,000 people this time, which is worthy of your commission, right?"

The Grim Reaper girl snorted and said, "Come on, you originally wanted to deal with the Japanese Kou, and you borrowed my mouth to make a move, and by the way, you earned me thousands of handsome guys, to say less, you look very aggrieved." ”

Zhou Lanye's face was expressionless: "The next thing is to ask that person to help." ”

As soon as Yi Yun heard this, he immediately became interested: "Why is the helm of the beggar gang located in Suzhou City?"

Zhou Lanye and the Grim Reaper girl glanced at each other, and then spread their hands together and said: "I don't know! But according to folklore, when the leader of the beggar gang established the beggar gang, he also worried about where the chief helm was built. Later, the old gang leader remembered a story, which was told to the old gang leader by Emperor Taizu, as if it was called "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qi'er". ”

"Flutter!" Yi Yun almost spurted out a mouthful of blood: "Wu Zhuangyuan Su Qi'er, my God, this Emperor Taizu can't cross over?"

"What is crossing?" Zhou Lanye and the Grim Reaper's sister Daqi.

"Ahem...... Nothing, I'm talking nonsense, you guys go ahead. Yi Yun spread his hands.

Zhou Lanye continued: "The old gang thinks that Su Qi'er is very powerful, and he yearns for it, so he decided to build the general helm in Suzhou, so that she can call herself Su Qi'er, which means the beggar of Suzhou!",

Evan: "......"

Nima, this beggar gang seems to be a bit unreliable.

"Let's go, the people in Hangzhou are still waiting for us to break the siege, we can't waste time grinding here, let's hurry up to the helm of the beggar gang." Zhou Lanye sailed the boat to the pier on the east side of Taihu Lake, which is very close to the center of the Suzhou Oasis and can be reached a few miles after getting off the boat.

Yi Yun, Sister Death, and Zhou Lanye didn't bring their subordinates, and just walked towards the center of Suzhou.

This is not the first time Yi Yun has come to Suzhou, the last time he went to Jiashan from his hometown to take office, he passed through Suzhou once, and picked up Chen Yuanyuan in Taohuawu here, but what happened in Taohuawu ruined his mood, and then he kept shrinking in the carriage and did not come out, so he didn't see the appearance of Suzhou, this time he walked into Suzhou, in order to peek into the whole picture of the city.

I saw that the houses on both sides of the street were extremely gorgeous, with carved railings and eaves, full of beauty. And the greening work is very good, the streets are planted with trees on both sides, and the whole city is as beautiful as a garden.

However, there are not many pedestrians on the street, because the whole south of the Yangtze River is in a war, the Japanese invaders have landed everywhere, and they have been beaten into a piece of erosion, although Suzhou has not yet become a battlefield, but the people's hearts are also very frightened, so the street is very sparsely populated, but there are more people in the teahouse tavern, people drink tea and drink, while scolding a few words of Japanese robbers, lamenting a few nonsense such as the death of the country.

The three of them walked for a while, and finally came to the most prosperous market place in Suzhou, where according to Zhou Lanye, the helm of the beggar gang was here.

Yi Yun looked up and saw a large market similar to the wholesale market of later generations towering in front of him, and at the gate of the market, a huge banner was hung, on which was written a row of large characters: "Welcome to Wuzhong Population Market".

"Isn't it the helmsman of the beggar gang?"

Zhou Lanye explained expressionlessly: "This is the helmsman of the beggar gang! This place is called Wuzhong District, and the beggar gang bought this piece of land from the government and built the helm, and by the way, they did some human trafficking. That's why it's called Wuzhong Population Market!"

"Nima, cheating daddy! No, buddy can't be serious, if I'm serious, I'll lose. Yi Yun was relieved.

The three of them raised their feet and walked towards the population market, and just walked to the door, they saw a neatly dressed and neat beautiful girl standing at the door, with a cloth belt hanging obliquely on her chest, embroidered with a row of words "Miss Welcome".

The welcome lady smiled at the three of them and said, "Three, are you here to buy or sell?
