Chapter 244: Fishing and Collecting Nets

Hearing the dog's report, Wei Guan, the prefect who knew the inside story early in the morning, was puzzled.

His Royal Highness built this building, which is a straight hook dedicated to bluffing people. Anyone with a little brain can see that something is wrong with this building.

thought that he wanted to use himself and a bunch of Suzhou government bureaucrats and celebrities as bait to lure the water bandits and rebels to come to the showdown.

Thinking that he saw through the bandits planned by His Royal Highness, he would then think that the government reserve warehouse is now leaderless, and it is a good time to attack the grain in the warehouse, after all, there is a huge amount of grain in the warehouse as a "reassuring pill" for the people, if the reserve warehouse is burned, Su Song will definitely fall into panic. Such a large amount of food must not be able to be transferred quietly without being noticed.

Then, the bandits will definitely choose to abandon this "straight hook" building and choose to attack the reserve warehouse. It just fell into the "plan within the plan" of His Highness.

But Wei Guan really didn't expect that someone would really come to "bite" this "straight hook", could it be that these remnant bandits are the kind of reckless men who only have muscles in their brains and beat their masters to death?

No, that's not right...... There has also been a battle on Pishi Street, and it should only be a small detachment that has come here. It should be among the bandits, someone saw their "plan", and then "planned it", and directly attacked this place, which was heavily guarded on the surface but actually emptied.

But in that case, why not gather all your forces and break through this building directly? Although they lost their geographical advantage, if they guessed that there was an ambush in the reserve warehouse, they should storm it at any cost......

Wei Guan had all kinds of thoughts in his mind, and before he could come up with a reason, he only heard the guards on guard at a high place shouting: "Arrow attack!" Be careful to dodge! Be careful to dodge! ”

"Protect Your Highness!"

"Snatch and snatch!" Several bolts flew into the building through the window and hit the pillars on the wall in the middle of the building. Although there were no casualties, it scared everyone in the building who didn't know about it half to death.

"It's a thief! It's a thief! ”

"It's not water, it's the thieves who set the fire, and some thieves have entered the city!"

The crowd suddenly panicked, and Zhu Su, who was guarded by a group of guards in the middle, pushed away the crowd in front of him, and saw a group of people who were so frightened that they collapsed to the ground, some people stood up and wanted to escape, and even some of them were incumbent officials in Suzhou Prefecture.

There was chaos in the building.

"Run! The thieves have broken the city! ”

"Don't mess around, everyone! If you go out, you will definitely become the target of thieves first! The prince is still here......"

"Fuck off! Do you dare to stop this official! ”

In the midst of the chaos, a businessman who was still calm shouted to his colleagues not to panic, but was directly kicked aside by an official. Zhu Su's face darkened, and Zheng Guogong Changmao had already raised the case upside down: "What a noise!" Didn't you see that Your Highness is still here? Everything is expected by His Highness, what kind of mess are you messing up? ”

Everything was expected? The crowd suddenly froze, and they all looked at Zhu Su, who was still sitting upright. Wei Guan was also shocked, didn't he say that this was just a bluffing "straight hook", and its function was to let the bandits bite the "curved hook" on the side of the reserve warehouse?

Someone came to bite the hook, which was also expected by His Highness?

"It's really unintentionally inserted willows...... Zhu Su sighed in his heart. But in front of everyone's eyes, he also made a breezy appearance.

Seeing that the dog who was watching from the outside nodded, indicating that there was no longer a threat, Zhu Su stood up. "Ladies and gentlemen, this king has also prepared an after-show for you."

"If you don't give up, please follow this king to the outside terrace to have a look."

As he spoke, he walked to the terrace outside.

A group of people looked at each other, originally worried that they would be shot by crossbow arrows when they went outside, but the body of King Wu went to the terrace, how could they refuse? He hesitated to the outside of the terrace, only to feel the night breeze blowing, and the whole person was suddenly refreshed. Sure enough, there was no imaginary siege of the thieves outside, only a round of moonlight, shining on the rushing river in front of the building.

"Oh, I found it, there."

Zhu Su held the binoculars and searched the river in the surprised eyes of everyone, and sure enough, he found a few figures who were swimming across the river.

"Let's take a look!" Chang Mao snatched the telescope. "Hey, sure enough! When these turtles got into the water, they swam very fast! ”

Everyone didn't know what tricks the two of them were playing, and even Wei Guan, who thought he knew everything, looked at Zhu Su and Chang Mao, who were shouting with strange props, with a confused expression. I only heard Zhu Su say to Chang Mao: "Brother Chang, you can close the net." Chang Mao nodded, took a large flag from the hand of the sergeant next to him and danced below.

"Your Highness, this is going to ...... Catch fish? ”

Several of the speedboats docked in the river suddenly moved, and a huge net was formed between each of them, and they went around the river. I saw His Royal Highness holding that strange prop and chanting something "left, right, and a little more to the right......" Chang Guogong waved the command flag and gave orders to the clippers below, but after a while, the clippers seemed to have caught something, and they all returned home.

"It is worthy of being an elite soldier trained by the old marshal! This skill of boating in the water is really unmatched! Zhu Su praised.

"Hey, hey. Needless to say. Chang Mao looked smug. Those thieves are self-assured of their good nature. But our Chang family's kung fu on the water is not bad! ”

Some people had already vaguely guessed something, and when the sergeant on the clipper came ashore, everyone saw that there were many wet "water ghosts" wrapped around the fishing nets they were dragging. Everyone was in an uproar.

"Okay, these 'Taihu Lake water cowards' have been captured in one fell swoop." Zhu Su said with a smile. The crowd behind was stunned for a moment, and those who reacted quickly had already knelt down first: "Your Highness has strategized and won a thousand miles!" ”

Everyone reacted, tonight's brainless night banquet was actually a good show to exterminate the Taihu Lake bandits.

It's just that they still don't understand why they and His Royal Highness the prince ate and drank well in the building, and then His Royal Highness and Chang Guogong commanded the sergeant to drag a round of nets in the river, and they fished out all these "water bandits" who came and went without a trace.

However, this did not prevent them from using their imagination to tell their friends and relatives the story of tonight's "net fishing bandits".

This is exactly what Zhu Su wants. Spreading the news of the extermination of the Taihu Lake bandits as soon as possible can completely end the rumors of the so-called "ghost rebellion of King Cheng's army", and quickly stabilize the people's hearts in Suzhou Mansion because of the nostalgia for Zhang Shicheng......

……

"Your Highness, what's going on?"

"You expected someone to attack this place?"

After sending out sentry cavalry to ensure that there was no hidden danger, Zhu Su dismissed a group of guests who were still confused. Wei Guan, who felt that he was being kept in the dark, kept asking Zhu Su, and there was no lack of blame in his tone:

"Your Highness's daughter, if you expect that there will be thieves here, how can you risk your life here......"

"Lord Wei, let's not mention this matter first...... Fortunately, under Yao Guangxiao's reminder, he still kept a hand. Now, Zhu Su just wanted to torture who instructed these people to carry out the sneak attack. When he saw the characters who were entangled in the fishing nets surrounded by Chang Mao and the guards, he was overjoyed.

Unexpectedly, I caught a big fish!

He looked at the slightly petite figure in the net, guarded by a group of people in the middle, trying to keep his head down.

"Yo, this is not an old acquaintance of this king. How about soaking in the river? ”

"Big sister of human traffickers? Or, should I call you: Princess Chen Han, Chen Hui? ”
