Chapter 41 Left Death and Right Life: Collusion of Businessmen and Bandits
"Shall we win?" Zhao Zongqi opened his mouth slightly, still a little incredulous.
This was nothing more than an hour from the time the Japanese got off the boat, to the time they rushed into battle, to the time they dropped their weapons and knelt down on the beach. During this period, the time for the real battle was just a stick of incense, and these notorious would-be robbers actually descended like this?
The corners of Yu Feng's mouth turned up slightly, and he also smiled: "The sons and daughters played well!" ”
The people kneeling on the beach were all nervous in their hearts, and the weapons thrown on the ground had been taken away by those officers and soldiers, and they were unarmed, and they could feel the undisguised killing intent of the soldiers holding Sensen spears around them. However, from the moment they threw away their weapons and knelt down, they had no capital to resist, not to mention the many foot soldiers around them who were staring at them, even if they could find time to run away from the foot guards, could they still outrun the cavalry riding outside.
Now they are just a bunch of meat on the chopping board, at the disposal of each other, where is there still half a point of arrogance when they just got off the boat.
A group of soldiers with short arms in hand, surrounded by this young general in light armor, walked over, and everyone kneeling on the ground was in their hearts, this is the general of this group of officers and soldiers, whether they are alive or dead, but it is all between the thoughts of this young man.
Yu Feng walked to the front of the crowd, and saw a head shape with a samurai bun, and couldn't help frowning slightly, this kind of bun is not taken care of like this in Daming, this is a specialty of the Wa Kingdom.
"Anyone with such a bun will be dragged out and cut off!"
With a cold order, the soldiers rushed into the crowd and dragged out the men with samurai hairs, and cut off their heads with a single sword, ignoring the shouts from these people's mouths. Seeing that the situation was not good, a few ran desperately outside, but were easily chased by Qiu Shi's horse team and stabbed to death with a rifle.
Still too much! Yu Feng looked at the trembling prisoners in front of him, almost two hundred or so Japanese robbers, when they just rushed into battle, almost a quarter of them had died, and now they had cut down another twenty or thirty, and there were still more than a hundred people left in the field.
He took a few steps forward, stood in front of the captives, squinted his eyes, and swiped his hand towards the void in the middle of the captives, dividing the remaining hundred or so people into left and right halves. The salters didn't know what Yu Feng was going to do, but they still followed Yu Feng's gesture and rushed over with spears in hand, dividing the captives into left and right sides.
"Kill all of them on the left!"
Yu Feng's words are orders, not to mention the Japanese who are not as good as killing these beasts, and the salters do not have any burden in their hearts. Especially when he just rushed into battle, Yu Feng's salt ding team killed and injured a few salt dings, and the robes that were thick with these salt dings didn't say a word, they rushed forward with red eyes, slashed and stabbed with spears, and in the blink of an eye, more than 50 would-be robbers were settled.
The sea breeze blew from the sea, with some smell of burnt wood, and more with a thick smell of fishy blood, the afterwind was fine, such a smell, it was not the first time he smelled it, but among those salts, some people couldn't stand it, and when the sea breeze blew, some people actually spit it out.
No one laughed at them, not the salters, not even the kneeling pirates. They have been frightened, and many of them are wet in their crotches at the moment, and there are also idle jokes about the enemy's gaffes.
Yu Feng didn't make a sound, in front of the remaining captives, he walked a few steps slowly, and when he saw his hand that controlled life and death, he raised it again, as if he wanted to divide the rest of the people in half, and someone among the captives suddenly shouted:
"My lord Mingjian, the villain is also an officer and soldier of the imperial court! It's not a waka! ”
Seeing that Yu Feng's hand was about to fall, the person who shouted was really panicked, as soon as the god killer fell, half of the people were going to die, who knows if they would be classified in the damn half, at this time, don't listen to anyone's words, save your life first.
"Officers and soldiers of the imperial court?" Yu Feng is really a little strange, if you want to say that it is a pirate attached to the widow, he still believes it, if you want to say that the officers and soldiers of this court are mixed with the widows, it is a bit unbelievable.
"Bring the caller!" With Yu Feng's order, several relatives rushed in and took out the guy who was shouting. As soon as they saw that there seemed to be life, a few guys in the crowd shouted: "My lord, we are also officers and soldiers of the imperial court!" ”
There was even a guy in a cotton robe, who shouted with all his might: "The villain is a maritime merchant, a maritime merchant, not a wolf!" ”
"Bring all these people here, and cut down the rest! And the corpse was thrown into the fireboat and burned! ”
"No!" Zhao Zongqi hurriedly said. After this period of shock, poor Zhao Zongqi finally came back to his senses, turned around, and was decisively suppressed by Yu Feng's killing. When he came back to his senses again, there was only a small half of the captives left on the beach, and for this small half of the captives, Yu Feng didn't seem to intend to waste food to feed them, and he wanted to crush them to ashes, so he couldn't help but step forward to stop them in a hurry.
"Huh?" Yu Feng's eyes swept over, Rao is Zhao Zongqi is usually familiar with his son-in-law, seeing Yu Feng's fierce and murderous eyes, he still felt that this look swept on his body and stinged slightly, and sighed slightly in his heart: My son-in-law, I didn't see it before, there was such a big murderous aura, but he was bold and cautious, but this official is still a little worse!
"The heads of these widows, those are real military merits! Especially those who are really widows, even if they don't want military merits, a head can be exchanged for fifty taels of silver, and it is too wasteful to burn it like this! ”
"What a wreck!? Belch? Yu Feng reacted, the so-called real widows, that is, those guys with Japanese knives and strange hair buns, these messy vacancies should not be counted, look at the corpses of the real widows who were killed by his own military formation before and those who were picked out and killed by himself later on the beach, there are almost more than forty or fifty bodies, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, isn't that that unintentionally made a small fortune?
"I'll leave this matter to the old man to handle, as for these miscellaneous pieces, it doesn't matter how you deal with them!" Zhao Zongqi woke up the aftermath and asked for his life. At present, Yu Feng is in full swing, and he can pick up the gaps on the side, but in front of the army, it would be very unwise to contradict the boss. Mr. Zhao is an old man, and he can't even grasp this bit of proportion.
"Mr. Zhao works hard!" Yu Feng directly called Zhao Zongqi's official position, obviously, he also meant to distinguish between public and private.
Zhao Zongqi led a team of people to clean up the battlefield, and Yu Feng turned around and looked at these guys kneeling in front of him. The smell of blood in the air was getting stronger and stronger, and it didn't smell very good.
"Bring these people back to Zhuangzi, and cut down the others! Zhao Deng, you can do the rest! ”
When Yu Feng returned to Zhuangzi, Zhuangzi had already received the news of Yu Feng's great victory, and it was a jubilant scene, and the previous gloomy atmosphere was no longer visible at all. When Yu Feng and the others came back, needless to say, even Liu Shengmin's group of craftsmen, who regarded themselves as the descendants of the Yu family, also felt proud because they personally followed Yu Feng to the battlefield this time and killed a few widows, and at this moment they were surrounded by the subordinates in Zhuangzi with admiration.
They work in the blacksmith workshop, their wives and daughters and some family members who have no craftsmanship, they act as subordinates in this Zhuangzi, although Yu Feng did not follow the habits of this era, forced them to change their surnames, but they all regard themselves as Yu family, of course, this Yu Feng does not change their surname, Yu Feng feels that there is no need for this, but in their opinion, to keep their own surname is to keep their own incense, which is already a great grace.
Yu Feng killed the Japanese and won, they also felt that their faces were bright, Liu Shengmin and them, but they got along with them day and night, in their opinion, they and Liu Shengmin were about the same status, and they went to the battlefield, and they were also the master's personal soldiers, this Liu Shengmin's merits, isn't it the merits of their group?
While there was jubilation outside, the atmosphere was not so harmonious in the wing room on the right, where the prisoners who claimed to be officers and soldiers or maritime merchants were being detained.
"My lord, I asked out, these people said that they were subordinates of Zheng Zhilong Zheng, a traveler in Fujian coastal defense, as for that maritime businessman...... Qiu Shi's face was a little strange: "That maritime merchant is a steward of Heng Signal!" ”
Qiu Shi has been a rout, a horse bandit, and can be described as an all-rounder under Yu Feng, and he is the most suitable for him to interrogate prisoners.
"Constant signal?" Yu Feng felt that the name was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"The adult forgot the roster that was handed over to the small one, on that list, the three private salt dealers have already let the small one take someone to dispose of them, and there are four salt merchants, the adult ordered not to touch them for the time being, this constant signal is one of the four salt merchants!" Qiu Shi cautiously reminded that there were people from salt merchants who did not deal with him, and on the first day that the Japanese came ashore, they did not come to destroy the salt pans for plunder, and this smell was worth touching, and even Qiu Shi felt the strangeness in it.
"Oh!" After mentioning this, Yu Feng remembered: "Of the four salt merchants, I remember that there is one industry in the Confucian Mansion in Qufu, one in the Lu Wangfu, and two are specialized in Huai salt!" ”
"Your Excellency is wise!" Qiu Shi nodded and stopped talking.
Nowadays, everyone in the world knows that this Yangzhou salt merchant is rich in the world, but few people know that this Yangzhou salt merchant is mostly marketing Huai salt, Shanxi, Anhui, and Jiangnan salt merchants, sitting in Yangzhou will market Huai salt in the world, other Sichuan salt, Lu salt, Jin salt, in which the share is not much.
These merchants who market Huai salt, after hundreds of years of operation, have formed a huge interest group in the court and among the people, want people, money, and power, Yu Feng asked himself that the current climate is not successful, and he doesn't want to collide with them prematurely, with his current strength, he is definitely the one who can't afford to lose when he conflicts with such an opponent.
He didn't want to clash with the other party, but the other party didn't seem to have any intention of letting him go at all, and as soon as he made a move, he came at his roots, which meant that he was completely ready to kill him. When Yu Feng thought of this, he was hated for a while, snorted slightly, and pushed open the door of the wing.
