Chapter 172: Dusk
Soon after the rain curtain came down, it gradually slowed down. Since the city was broken www.biquge.info the Ming soldiers who invaded were all kinds of looting, including food, in addition to all kinds of killings by men and taking women as the target of venting. After the house was broken, the wandering children turned from hungry to wolf cubs, which made people feel sad and chilled.
The disabled teenager on the other side of the street has already left.
Under the crackling rain, Lin Chong and the three of them were silent for a while, and Luan Tingyu patted him on the shoulder, "This is the scene when Liangshan entered Zhujiazhuang, but Hangzhou is just bigger, and there are naturally more tragedies, and Liangshan has also become Mingjiao." Younger brother look away, we have more important things to do. ”
"Let's go......"
Lin Chong let out a long breath, wiped the rain from his face, and went straight into the alley.
This is Jinyuan Lane, there were originally several courtyards on both sides of the alley, but now there are no voices on both sides, and there are still blood stains on the walls of the courtyards on both sides that are difficult to clean.
The gate is broken and collapsed, judging from the traces of the fracture, most of the people here have been looted by the Mingjiao rebels, but it is obvious that it has been abandoned for a long time, and the bandits are estimated to have no interest in going in and looting anything after taking a look. After the three of them carefully entered, sure enough, many things in it had not been moved, confirming their guess.
"It should be here...."
"....knock and see. ”
Bah..... Bah... Woohoo....
In the blank wall position on the side of the bookshelf that was almost collapsing, Lin Chong bent his fingers and knocked four times in an orderly manner, and the earthen wall suddenly squeaked, sliding with a heavy moving sound, and moved out, revealing a face in the dark, and when he saw the visitor, he smiled.
"Lin Jiaotou....Luan Jiaotou....uh... and Ling Jian Zao also came. The man hurriedly shouted in twice, and seemed to call someone over again, so he pushed the wall out and welcomed Lin Chong and the others in.
Although the entrance to the cave is small, you can stand upright when you enter the inside, which is supposed to be the effect of the compartment, and it is difficult to detect it from the outside. It was a simple place, only a low table, an oil lamp still on, but there were not many people to see, the roof was leaking, and the walls were soaked wet.
The wind blows in through the gap under the eaves, and the lights are shaking, slightly cool.
"....Commander Yang said that the overseer would definitely send someone to find him, and now it's okay, three abbots have come, and the brothers are relieved. ”
Although there was no expression on the guard's face, his tone was obviously relaxed, so the subtle conversation continued.
"Where is Yang Zhi?"
"Commander Yang was seriously injured, although he bandaged and treated it in time, but it was dark here, the healing was too slow, and the ground was too damp, but the wound was suppurated. The factory guard said worriedly, walked to the corner of the wall, pulled out a reassuring wooden board, and placed a wooden ladder underneath, and by the dim light, he could vaguely see the people coming and going below.
"Let's go down and see Yang Zhi. ”
Luan Tingyu was the first to step on the ladder to the bottom, and the factory guards in the past hugged their fists and signaled to him, after all, most people here have been taught by him.
"Where is your commander, take us there. ”
Under the guidance of the factory guard who was asked, along the narrow dark passage, there was a clean place, which was full of factory guards chatting there, and when they saw Lin Chong and the three of them coming over, they greeted each other.
As he went deeper, he finally saw Yang Zhi in the innermost, lying on the couch, exuding a smell of sweat and blood mixed together.
A strong medicinal smell filled the entire cavern.
"Yo....Old Yang, has you changed your appearance?" Ling Zhen teased and walked over, but when he saw the wrapped thing on the other side of the cave, he sniffed, and his eyes suddenly lit up. "My big baby is actually ....... here"
When the tarpaulin is removed, revealing a swarthy, gruff gun body.
Lin Chong suddenly said: "Now I understand the plan of the Overseer." ”
He stared at Yang Zhi, who was covered in white silk, who shook his head and swallowed a little voice: "I know... I can't say anything about it for the time being...."
"You take care of your injuries, we came here to assist you this time. You have been in the city for a long time, you should know where the Mingjiao's grain storage land is, right?" Luan Tingyu was silent for a while, and then told him Bai Ning's plan: "The Mingjiao is wantonly looting and replenishing grain and grass outside the city, hoarding Hangzhou and the surrounding areas, and the overseer outside the city should have a way to solve it. ”
Yang Zhi, who was lying on the couch, looked at the expressions of Luan Tingyu and the others, raised his hand and put it down, and said weakly: "Now it's the end of spring, the humidity in the south is heavy, and there are not many places in Hangzhou that can store grain. ”
"What if you are caught off guard?"
Lin Chong said as he helped him check his body, "Fortunately, the organs are not damaged, otherwise the root of the disease will be pulled down, and the martial arts will be wasted in the future." ”
Then, he changed the topic and continued: "When I was in the city, those people from the rivers and lakes who came over seemed to have known the news that Fang La was going to be the emperor of Hangzhou, if so, that day would definitely be the best opportunity, Lin Mouguan These people are too heavy in their habits, and they usually can't see it, if it is that day, they will definitely get together for a drink, even if there will be substitutes on duty, the defense is definitely much more lax than usual." ”
Yang Zhi, who had been lying on the couch for a long time, originally looked a little decadent. At this time, he gradually realized the key, he cracked his mouth and smiled: "When the day comes, all the generals under Fang La's command will also gather together to accept the canonization, thinking about what will happen, my heart can't help but open up a lot, haha——"
Yang Zhi laughed, but his eyes were on the artillery.
The hand wrapped around the white silk was squeezed very tightly.
.....................
Outside the city of Hangzhou, after the heavy rain, the sun was in the west, and two Mingjiao rangers wrapped in red scarves patrolled the empty official road, sometimes saying two sentences in small pieces.
Among the weeds on both sides of the road, there were figures crawling, and suddenly, before the two rangers could react, two ropes appeared in mid-air, and with a bang, they pulled the two off their horses by the necks, and quickly dragged them into the grass, and soon disappeared.
Two ownerless horses, standing on the official road sneezing, slowly chewing weeds.
The Mingjiao rangers who were dragged away were quickly taken away and went to an abandoned and dilapidated village, and when they were pulled for questioning, they were greeted by a eunuch in a black palace robe, "Tell our family where the grain outside the city is."
"Of course, if you don't think about it, our family will have a way to make you speak. ”
The gloom on Cao Shaoqing's face gradually magnified in the eyes of the two little minions, and soon after, a piece of information appeared on the note, and then the two were dragged away and killed.
....... The information was sent to Bai Ning.
The western suburbs of the city, the old tile ditch..... Bai Ning silently recited the name of the place above,
The wind blew through the woods, through the dilapidated houses, and the light of the fire flickered, flickering and dimming. Far away, in the direction of Hangzhou, Bai Ning knew that that person was going to be the emperor after all, and he would also be defeated, but before that, how could he leave something in this history.
For example, the sound of artillery that he faintly heard.
