Salmon Island was silent in the dark night. The damaged ships in the port were still parked in place, and most of the pier was burned down. There were only a few bonfires lighting up the island. Qinbei Pavilion
"Go to the island!"
Zongze saw the scene at the dock and knew that the battle last night was indeed true, so he waved the soldiers ashore.
"Mr. Tongsuan, there is no one at the dock. They should all be in the prison."
The soldiers searched and found that there was no one at the dock, but there were sounds from the prison in the distance.
"Mr. Judge, is it possible that the thief has left?"
A soldier said, "The guards are so lax, it doesn't look like there are people there."
"Even if we leave, we can't take those prisoners with us! Go to the prison city!"
Zongze thought for a moment and said, "It's impossible to kill all 2,000 Ping Haijun people, and it's impossible to keep them locked up on the ship with so many captives and thieves all day long. The only prison city in this archipelago that can hold so many people is the Salmon Island prison city." .
Zongze led the people all the way to the outside of the prison city.
Suddenly, there was a huge fire all around, and dozens of bonfires were lit, illuminating the open space outside the prison city like daylight in an instant.
"Zong Tongpan, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Sun Lei smiled and looked at Zongze, who had gray temples in front of him.
"What!"
Zongze realized that this was a trap, and his face turned pale when he saw that he was surrounded.
"You are...Sun Lei!"
Zongze gritted his teeth and looked at Sun Lei and said, as the magistrate of Dengzhou, he had an impression of Sun Lei, the most wanted criminal in the world.
"Haha, I don't think it's an honor for Zong Tongpan to know me."
Sun Lei laughed and admitted.
"Are you responsible for all these things at sea?"
Zongze stared at Sun Lei and asked in disbelief. The moment Sun Lei appeared, all his cognitions and guesses were overturned. The ones on the sea were not pirates from the south, but the thieves from Liangshanbo.
"Bombard the Daoyu Village? Destroy the Ping Navy? Occupy the Bohai Sea? That's about it! Is there anything else you want to add, General Huyan?"
Sun Lei looked at Hu Yanqing next to him and asked.
"That should be it."
Hu Yanqing said with an embarrassed look. He was a little embarrassed to face Zongze. Not long ago, he was the commander of the Ping Navy, but now he has committed himself to being a thief, but he did not dare to resist. The more contact he had, the more he felt that Sun Lei He was so terrifying, this was not an ordinary bandit, he was not something he could contend with.
"By the way, Daming Mansion's fleet has sunk into the sea. No, Liang Zhongshu's autographed letter is still here."
Sun Lei took out a letter with a smile and said with a smile.
Zongze's expression changed several times after reading the letter, and finally he sighed and recognized the reality.
"Zong Tongpan, I hope you can be considerate of your soldiers. There is no need to resist in vain. Although I am not a murderer, as a thief, killing is commonplace!"
Sun Lei looked at Zongze and the soldiers and said contradictory words with a smile. The smiling face was like a devil's whisper in the eyes of the soldiers behind Zongze. They were all so frightened that their legs and feet were shaking and they could hardly stand still.
Zongze also saw the state of the soldiers around him. Under the huge contrast and shock, he was surrounded by enemies again. The soldiers had no intention of resisting for a long time.
Zongze waved his hand helplessly. It wasn't that he didn't want to resist, but that he had no chance of success. Sun Lei's crossbows had been prepared for a long time. If he made a move on his side, thousands of arrows would be fired and no one would be able to survive. .
When the soldiers saw the order, they breathed a sigh of relief and put down their swords one after another and surrendered.
"Take it down!"
Sun Lei waved his hand and said.
The surrendered soldiers were taken underground to the prison city.
"Zong Tongpan, you don't have to, brother has invited me!"
When Wang Dingliu saw that Zongze was going to the dungeon, he stopped him with a smile.
Zongze didn't want to go, but Wang Dingliu had already stood in front of him and made a gesture of invitation. Zongze could only follow Wang Dingliu to the prison camp.
"Zong Tongpan is here, take a seat!"
Sun Lei smiled and pointed to the empty guest seat.
As soon as he entered the prison city, Zongze frowned. He had been to the prison city of Salmon Island before. The original prison city was dark, damp, and dirty, but now it is a bit more spacious and bright. You can even see the moon and stars through the windows. This is obvious. It's been cleaned up.
"A thief still cares about hygiene?"
Zongze couldn't understand when the barbaric thieves became civilized.
And the people who were doing it made Zongze even more confused. Sun Lei looked like a dandy rich man, the great monk Lu Zhishen next to him looked upright, Xu Guanzhong was polite, Li Zhu looked elegant, Gongsun Sheng was Taoist, Du Bu was brave, Sun An is full of charlatanism, Hua Rong has sharp eyes...
The rest of the people were also full of righteousness, and none of them seemed to be evil or evil people. There was only one black man with a fierce look, but his stupid eyes showed that he was a reckless man with no wisdom.
"Where did these thieves come from!"
Looking at the exquisite dishes placed in front of him, Zongze thought about it. If he hadn't known that these were Liangshan bandits, he might have been deceived.
“Zong Tongpan, here’s to you!”
Sun Lei raised his wine glass and looked at Zong Ze with a smile.
"Zongze is too drunk!"
Zongze refused and said that he came here to find out the details of the thief, but he was not in the mood to have a drink with the thief.
"Zong Tongpan, I am a bandit. If you don't show me face, I will get angry and retaliate."
Sun Lei looked at Zong Ze and said.
"Zongze was captured today. He just wants to die!"
Zongze immediately begged to die as a bachelor.
"Haha, Zong Tongpan, I invited you here for such a big battle, am I just to kill you?"
Sun Lei looked at Zong Ze and smiled.
These words made Zong Ze's expression change, and he realized that he had thought wrong again. Sun Lei did all this just to catch him.
"There was something wrong with last night's sneak attack!"
Zongze immediately realized something. Everything that happened last night was done deliberately by Sun Lei in order to deceive him.
"The big ships cost 2,000 guan each, and five were burned. The smaller ships, which cost 1,000 guan, were burned by nine. There are also various other ships. A total of nearly 30,000 guan is not a problem, right?"
Sun Lei pointed outside and said, the destroyed ships were real.
"This is all a scam. You already knew there would be a sneak attack. Those are not your fleet at all!"
Zongze stared at Sun Lei and recalled the ships he saw just now. Those were not loach warships at all, but merchant ships!
"Of course it's not my fleet. The merchant ships brought by the Ping Navy last time are just for use."
Sun Lei said with a smile.
"How do you know there will be a sneak attack? You have no way of knowing!"
Zongze almost said this through gritted teeth. How did their carefully prepared sneak attack become known to Sun Lei? There must be something wrong with it. Sun Lei's hand may have reached into Dengzhou City.
"Nothing is absolute! Of course someone told me."
Sun Lei laughed.
"who is it!"
Zongze looked at Sun Lei and asked.
"Have a drink first. How can I tell you if you don't even drink?"
Sun Lei looked at Zong Ze and said, there is no need to hide some things so hard. Zong Ze is now in his hands. Knowing or not knowing some things does not affect the overall situation.
Zongze looked at the wine glass in front of him, picked it up and drank it in one gulp without any further hesitation.
"Tell me who your masterpiece is!"
Zongze put down his wine glass and looked at Sun Lei and asked.
