A knife in love

Chapter 2354
Xu Yingyang heard Qi Jiu say this, took a look at Qi Jiu, and said in his mouth: "Mr. Qi thinks it's useless for us to defend the city. Don't you want to throw Dongliao County to the Fusang people for nothing?"

Qi Jiu heard the displeasure in Xu Yingyang's words, and hurriedly shook his head and said, "I don't mean that. It's just that there is no danger to defend in the south of Dongliao County. If the enemy forces attack with all their strength, the defenders will be defeated. Arrive There is no way to retreat, and the people in the city are too tired to escape. Fortunately, the Fusang army is not going to capture Dongliao County this time, but to hide the fleet in the big stone cave. In my humble opinion, get rid of the city After defeating the Japanese pirates, they called together those capable of fighting in the city to try to block the ditch and cut off the waterway for the Fusang army to enter the Dashidong. In this way, although the enemy army had tens of thousands, they were all at sea and could not go ashore together. To deal with us, no matter how many soldiers and horses there are, it will not be of much use."

Murong Danyan, Wang Xiaoyu, and Master Miaohui didn't know anything about battle formations. Although they could understand every word Qi Jiu and Xu Yingyang said, they didn't know what they were talking about at all. They all looked at each other in blank dismay.Li Qiufeng and Xiao Dong knew that, as Qi Jiu said, the guards in Dongliao County were empty, and it would be more difficult to defend the city than to reach the sky.Instead of defending the city, it is better to find a way to block the big ditch and force the fleet of the Fusang army to stay at sea.In this way, even if the enemy has an army of tens of thousands, they cannot go ashore to fight together.

Xu Yingyang shook his head after hearing what Qi Jiu had said, and said: "Young Master Qi is quite reasonable. It's just that there are still many people in Dongliao County. If we abandon the city and let these people be slaughtered by Japanese pirates, Even if we managed to escape in the end, the imperial court would charge us with the crime of 'fearing the enemy like a tiger, abandoning the city and fleeing'. You and I are living on the salary of Daming, and we must not abandon the city, otherwise the imperial court will definitely not let us go. "

When Xu Yingyang said this, Qi Jiu felt very anxious and was about to refute, but Li Qiufeng gave him a wink, signaling him not to argue with Xu Yingyang again.Although Qi Jiu was not convinced, he didn't dare to say more, so he had to suppress the anger in his chest and stopped talking to Xu Yingyang.Xu Yingyang said to Master Miaohui again: "We are going to the county government office in the city. If Master has nothing else to do, you might as well go with us."

Master Miao Hui nodded, but did not speak.Xu Yingyang discussed with Li Qiufeng again, and then he left the wing room with everyone.At this time, the sky was dark and it was almost dusk.Wang Xiaoyu let out a sigh of relief, thinking of all the encounters in the big stone cave before, it seemed like a lifetime ago.Seeing Xu Yingyang and Li Qiufeng walking in the front side by side, she lowered her voice and said to Murong Danyan who was walking beside her: "This guy named Xu looks so aggressive, it's really disgusting. Fusang people have ulterior motives." , these Jin Yiwei may not have any good intentions. Sister Murong, you have to remind Hero Li in private, don't be tricked by this surname Xu."

Murong Danyan nodded, and said in a low voice: "Sister, don't worry. Although these Jinyiwei are cunning, but brother Li has dealt with them for many years, he must know their methods, and he will never be easily fooled. We just need to listen to brother Li's orders. .”

Everyone walked out of the yard, and saw more than 20 people in green clothes standing tall and short outside the door, all of them were wearing deep hats and long knives hanging from their waists. At a glance, they could tell that these people were Jin Yiwei under Xu Yingyang.Li Qiufeng said to Xu Yingyang: "Master Xu, this village is a lair used by Japanese pirates to hide their identities. Although the killers of the Liusheng clan suffered heavy casualties, even though centipedes are not dead, there must be Japanese pirates hiding in the village. When we leave Zhuangzi, we must be careful, so as not to be noticed by the pirates, and we will inevitably miss a big deal."

Xu Yingyang nodded in agreement.When everyone left the village, they didn't dare to walk on the main road, but Wang Xiaoyu led the way, turning around in the alleys.At this time, the twilight was deep and the sky was extremely dark. After walking out of a stick of incense, the shadows of the two big willow trees at the entrance of Zhuangzi could be vaguely seen.Wang Xiaoyu stopped in her tracks, turned her head and whispered to Murong Danyan: "Sister Murong, when we were trapped in the tomb passage, I went back to Wangjiazhuang in a daze. At that time, there was no Zhuang Ding guarding the entrance of the village. But Now I don't know if I had a big dream and came back here, or if I really returned to Wangjiazhuang. Just to be cautious, when Qi Jiu and I went to the city to buy medicine, we jumped out from the stone wall on the left and avoided the village. Those few houses at the entrance. Now that we have arrived at Zhuangkou again, how should we get out of the village?"

Murong Danyan remembered that when he was trapped in the tomb passage, he also went back to Wangjiazhuang in a daze.However, according to Xiao Dong, the weird experience between her and Wang Xiaoyu was not due to encountering a ghost, but because she inhaled the poisonous gas in the tomb passage, she lost her mind and had a big dream.Right now, the situation in Wangjiazhuang is unclear, so it's better to be more cautious.Thinking of this, Murong Danyan said to Wang Xiaoyu: "Let's climb over the stone wall and leave Zhuangzi. Don't disturb the pirates and waste time here."

Wang Xiaoyu nodded, and led the crowd to turn to the left without making a sound, cross the road across Wangjiazhuang, and sneak into an alley on the left.After walking more than ten feet, he turned to the right again, and after a while, he was under the stone wall.Everyone is a generation of high-strength martial arts, and each used lightness kung fu to cross the stone wall.Wang Xiaoyu saw that several nuns who were not a few years older than him jumped to the top of the stone wall with a light leap, and he was very envious.Seeing her envious look, Murong Danyan laughed secretly, and master Miaohui grabbed Wang Xiaoyu's two arms respectively, and led her to jump over the stone wall lightly.

When everyone walked on the official road, the sky was already completely dark.Qi Jiu turned his head and looked north, thinking to himself, two or three miles to the north is the wooden bridge.In order to sail to the sea to meet the army of Fusang, Liu Shengdan Mashou dug a dam by the sea and connected the pool in the big stone cave with the sea.I don't know if the Japanese pirates blocked the dam again after this person went to sea.Liusheng Zongyan, an old thief, sailed to seek revenge on Liushengdan Mashou, and I don't know if he can succeed.If the old thief kills Liu Shengdan and Ma Shou and colludes with the commander of the Fusang Army, with his ability, the disaster will be even worse.It is best for the old thief to find Yagyu Dan and Ma Shouzhi, and fight with those Fusang warriors who betrayed him. Both sides will lose, which is in our best interest.

Everyone walked south along the official road, and after walking for a few miles, they could already vaguely see the lanterns and torches on the tower of the north gate of Dongliao County.Wang Xiaoyu is not afraid of tigers as a newborn calf. Others are very afraid of Xu Yingyang, but she is not afraid.Seeing the north gate of Dongliao County not far away, Wang Xiaoyu quickly walked up to Xu Yingyang, and said, "Master Xu, you are a senior official of Jinyiwei, whether you are a police officer or a soldier in the city, You must be afraid of your majesty's majesty. It's getting late now, and the gates of the city are probably locked. You might as well send someone to the gates to call the gates, and order the officers and soldiers to open the gates. Otherwise, we may have to work hard when we get to the gates. "
