Chapter 2298

As the night darkened, the sound of clappers sounded, and it was time for the watch.In the fields outside Wuzhou City, a small team quietly marched towards Wuzhou City.

This small team was all dressed in black, and their faces were painted with pot ashes - no different from bandits active in the countryside. Such small teams can often be seen, and the villages passing by have been familiar with it. If there is no hostile action close to the village, night No one will call the police.

This small team was Song Ming's men. According to the prior arrangement, at nightfall he led the team from the mountains where they had been lurking during the day, and went straight to Wuzhou.

According to the plan, Jiang Suo will meet him on the city wall with his nephew—the location is near Dayun Gate, the most remote place in Wuzhou.When the Australians attacked Wuzhou here, they were bombarded by a large number of artillery shells, and the city walls were severely damaged. Although Xie Erren organized refugees to repair the city walls, and basically repaired the city walls, the original Qiaolou, Wopu, Mamian, female walls, crenels, etc. Most of the defensive facilities have not been repaired or have been repaired very sloppily.The repair of the city wall on some large gaps has not reached the original height, and there are only trenches under the northward city wall, so it is easier to cross the trench or climb the wall.

The most important thing is that Yi Haoran and others inquired in the city and knew that the defense force of Dayunmen was the weakest.It used to be the second squadron garrison here. After the second squadron set off to meet the fleet, there was only one squad of the Fubo army and one squad of the detective team in charge of guarding. There were less than 50 people stationed here-the garrison force here was even less than half at night.

The only security forces are concentrated in Dayun Gate and its surroundings.That is to say, the city walls between the various city gates are basically unattended, with only mobile sentries and regular patrols.As long as you move fast enough and with a little luck, you can easily cross the city wall without being noticed.

At this moment, on the wall from Dayunmen to Yangmingmen, two mobile sentries of the detective team were patrolling.They are all the defeated Ming army descendants who were taken in before and after the Wuzhou Battle.Placed in the detective team as some odd jobs to make a living.

Wang Ken and Mai Dangjiu mixed in the army. Although they did not have the same surname, they hit each other and became brothers with different surnames.After being incorporated by the Australians, they also worked together as errands.

The remuneration of the detective team is meager, and it is just a mouthful.The two are naturally not reconciled.I kept thinking about how to "get a big ticket", and then I left.

An old woman with such thoughts, naturally cannot escape Yi Haoran's discerning eyes.Through Jiang Suo and others, he tried several times and thought they could be used, so he used the bait of "capturing the real kun and making great achievements" to pull the two onto the boat.

Yi Haoran did not develop many insiders in the city. Although Gou Er provided him with many remnants of the old Ming Dynasty that could be developed in the city, he was very cautious.Most of the conspiracies revealed since ancient times were betrayed by someone inside.The more people involved in the conspiracy, the more likely it is to lose the opportunity.

Therefore, after Yi Haoran joined the group, the premise he set was to only attract and develop people in key positions, ordinary people who are not important,
Because Wang Ken and Mai Dang have been stationed in Dayunmen for a long time, they are also key figures.Early this morning, they got the news that they were going to do something today, and they were asked to try to respond when they patrolled at night.

On weekdays, the Second Squadron would be stationed in the Dayunmen area, and the patrol posts at night would be accompanied by a national army and a detective team.If you want to respond, you must either pull the National Army into the water, or kill him halfway.Both carry significant risks.Tonight, by contrast, had no difficulties.

Due to the shortage of manpower, the detective team not only has to patrol alone, but also increases the length of the patrol, so that the possibility of being discovered is getting lower and lower.

Seeing that it was two o'clock and three o'clock in the city, the two looked at each other, and then raised the lantern in their hands to expose the horse's face, and so on three times.Send a response signal.

According to the agreement: they started sending such signals at two and two o'clock. If there was no response, they would do it again at one o'clock. If there was no response three times in a row, the matter would be considered dirty.

Not long after the signal was sent, frogs croaked from below the city, three tight, three slow, and finally three tight again.

The two looked at each other, here they come!At that moment, McWangken raised the lantern again to confirm receipt.McKee took out a few bundles of ropes buried in the pile of defense materials not far away, tied them on the battlements, and threw them down.

Not long after, two men in black climbed up from the crenel with swords and shields on their backs. The two sides did not talk.

The two were secretly startled: what kind of horse is this?It's so powerful!While he was wondering, the last person who went to the city waved and said in a low voice, "You guys, come here!"

The two of them were frightened and rushed to greet them, and nodded and bowed involuntarily: "I have seen the master..."

"You guys will guard this place, and there will be chaos in the city after a while—you don't have to be afraid, just wait quietly, no one will come here!" After saying these words, he quickly jumped up, grabbed the rope and slid down.

a few hours ago.

"Is this the theater box of the Three Presidents' Mansion?" Liu Wangwang watched as the strong men carried eight large boxes in under Chang Qingyun's command.

"Exactly!" Chang Qingyun said with a smile, "My lord, if you speak in front of Chief Xie, you will finish the matter!"

Liu Wangwang frowned, and said with a smile, "Not bad, not bad. Quickly carry all the boxes to the back, and I'll take a closer look later, what tricks are there!"

He felt very good today, and with some sweet words, Chief Xie agreed to give him the trick box, and he seemed to have a good impression of him in his words.A few theater boxes are nothing but entertainment.This chief's respect is rare!Over the years he has served under several chief ministers.Didn't get any good looks.I am very qualified, but I still can't get up in the position. Even if I get through the seniority, I am still several times worse than others.

This made him worry about it all the time, he didn't expect that he would prosper in this job of managing the camp!Not only can you enjoy the wine, sex and wealth, but also make a lot of money.What made him most happy was that he had such a good master as Chang Qingyun!

In the past, he didn't have a good impression of the master, he just thought that he was just a bad-bellied scholar who gave advice to the officials.But it was really useful before I realized it was wonderful-it was so easy to use!Compared with the "training courses" he had attended that made him doze off, this master really worked.What a talent to speak nicely!

It seems that the Australians also think too highly of themselves, some things are better handled by Daming.

But Chang Qingyun said: "Master, don't go to see it..."

"Oh? Why is that?"

"These theater boxes have been idle for decades. Although they were intact on the outside when they were moved out, the inside situation is unknown. The old things of these decades have been stored in the big warehouse for a long time, and I am afraid they will be sent What kind of evil things are there." Chang Qingyun said solemnly, "And send someone to the women's toilet and menstrual cloth, and break the method..."

Liu Wangwang laughed and said, "Old Chang, you really know how to talk nonsense! There is nothing evil in this world. Our Senate doesn't believe this..."

Chang Qingyun insisted: "It's better to believe what you have than not to believe what you don't have. Your old man is an official. If you collide, it will hinder your official luck."

This sentence "is in the way of official luck" touched Liu Wangwang.He has been hopeless for promotion all these years, and he has a lot of ideas in his heart.Now I just have some hope, and there is really no need to fight for this moment--what if there is really something evil?

"Okay, this is up to you. Let me know when you're done!"

"It's not just a word," Chang Qingyun said with a smile, "when you get these objects, when you're done, take out the costumes, and ask the team to sing a few times tonight—I've rehearsed several times, and this time I don't need to sing a cappella gone."

"Well, it's not that good." Liu Wangwang said, "There will be a grain fleet arriving tomorrow, and it's not good to hear about our fanfare singing opera..."

In fact, his heart was itchy for a long time, and he couldn't bear it anymore.

"The matter of the grain fleet has nothing to do with your old man. Besides, I have another plan here. Tomorrow the grain fleet will be unloaded. You always go to see the director and say that this is a great joy for the people of Wuzhou. How about Let the theater troupe set up a stage in the city to celebrate..."

"That's right!" Liu Wangwang thought, this master Chang is really powerful, and changing one thing will make a difference immediately.But he still didn't understand:
"But that's for tomorrow..."

"Tomorrow you have to act in a play, why don't you have a rehearsal today?"

Liu Wangwang laughed loudly: "Well said! Well said! Master Chang, you are really a talent! You follow me and work hard. When I get rich, I will make you a cadre in the future!"

"Thank you, master, for your help!" Chang Qingyun laughed along with him, and he left in a hurry,

He returned to the courtyard where the theater troupe was located, and the theater boxes were placed in the warehouse in the backyard.He quietly opened one of the theater boxes, there were indeed a lot of costumes piled up in a mess in the box, and the bottom was already stuffed with gunpowder and brimstone.Eight boxes are eight big bombs.

The gunpowder and brimstone were collected secretly by Jiang Suo these days—after the Wuzhou War, there were quite a few gunpowder and gunpowder scattered outside.On the way out of carrying the box from the San Zongfu, the bag was dropped.This time it was all their people who went to carry the boxes.

Chang Qingyun took out all the costumes and piled them on the table.The gunpowder packs were torn up and sprinkled all over the box—then just throw the torch on the box to ignite it.

It was all packed, and he locked the box.Breathe a sigh of relief.

He ordered people to carry all the boxes to the eaves of the corridor, and put the menstrual cloth and toilet that he had just obtained, which was regarded as a practice.He also told me not to touch and open the box tonight.

Chang Qingyun went back to the front and saw several bearers drinking water to wipe their sweat, and they exchanged glances.Chang Qingyun knew that everything was normal in the Sanhezui camp, and was just waiting to be activated.But at the moment, Liu Wangwang's small kitchen was steaming and full of people.Probably cooking a meal for his evening enjoyment.He heard the sound of clappers being played upstairs in the camp, and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth. This was probably Liu Wangwang's last meal.
