"If I can come back alive this time, I should be able to live a good and peaceful life. I plan to take my family to a place farther away to serve as an official, far away from the Ming Dynasty. I will save the money for Emperor Su to settle the accounts."
Qian Yiduo laughed and said, "If you can't afford to provoke me, why can't I hide? Emperor Su is so powerful. Emperor Su is invincible. Can't I hide? How can he chase me to the ends of the earth?"
Zhou Yunxiang shook his head.
"I am different. If I can come back alive, it means that Su Yonglin is no big deal. We all can dig up the Yellow River under his nose. He is like that. When I come back, I will be an official in Lin'an. When the time comes, Su Yonglin has come to take revenge, so I will fight him with my horse and sword!"
"Hey, you still want to have a fight with him?"
Qian Yiduo glanced at Zhou Yunxiang sideways, and saw that his short stature did not look like a fierce general, so he smiled and said: "I'm afraid you won't be able to fight for a few rounds before being killed by others, and you are jumping on your horse and swinging your sword." , Hahaha, save your energy and go home to spend time with your family!”
"What? No?"
Zhou Yunxiang said unhappily: "Let me tell you, even if we succeed this time, Su Yonglin will definitely go south to take revenge. If he doesn't resist then, will he wait to die? I don't want to die. Let me tell you, I am Even if you die, you must die on the battlefield."
"Definitely, I can't help you. You can die wherever you want. I don't care about you. As long as I can hide and get through this period of time with my family, I'm almost content. The rest I don’t want to think about it anymore.”
Qian Yiduo stretched out and said slowly: "Isn't it enough to be able to do such a thing in this life? What else can I do? I will be content if I can live to the end of my life. The general trend of the world is not something people like us can do. Stirred up.”
Zhou Yunxiang didn't say anything else. He felt that Qian Yiduo was too spineless and didn't want to talk to him anymore.
After sailing on the sea for a day and a night, the three ships arrived at a place slightly farther from the Yangtze River estuary in the early morning of April 26.
At daybreak, Zhou Yunxiang and Qian Yiduo were eating dry food on the boat and watching the sunrise. As they watched, Qian Yiduo suddenly pushed Zhou Yunxiang beside him and pointed to him in a direction.
"The ship over there...is it okay? It's not a Ming army ship, right?"
"Huh? Which side of the ship?"
Zhou Yunxiang took a bite of the scone in his hand and glanced over casually. At one glance, he immediately felt that something was not right.
According to Yu Yunwen, this route is absolutely safe.
In order to ensure that they could reach the coast of Juzhou safely, Yu Yunwen arranged for three ships to run back and forth three times in advance, just to avoid possible Ming army patrol ships.
For this reason, we also chose a place further away from the coastline, just for safety.
But now...
The ship was coming towards them from farther away from the coastline, from the east. What was going on?
Zhou Yunxiang was a little worried and quickly ran to the cabin to find the captain of the ship and asked him what was going on.
The captain was sleeping in the cabin. He was very unhappy after being dragged up by Zhou Yunxiang. He followed him to the deck with a look on his face and his expression changed immediately.
"No, we have gone back and forth three times, and we have never encountered another ship here. Moreover, this direction is the open sea, and to the east is the endless sea. Where did the ship come from?"
When the captain said this, Zhou Yunxiang and Qian Yiduo looked very bad.
"No way?"
"impossible?"
The two of them murmured to themselves, their faces gradually turning pale, and their voices starting to tremble.
Not to mention them, the captains and sailors with naval background also felt very uneasy. They stared at those ships. When they got a little closer, they found that there were seven ships in this fleet, and they were all bigger than them. The boat is big, quite fast, and there are many flags hanging on it.
When the distance was closer and the sky was brighter, when they looked at the words on the flag, they almost died on the spot.
bright!
The word "明" is written on the flag.
It’s over! died!
The seven warships of the Ming fleet quickly approached these three small ships. Instead of attacking them, they surrounded them and then slowly approached them.
Zhou Yunxiang and Qian Yiduo saw the fully armed Ming army sailors on the ship and the crossbows they held in their hands. Their hearts sank to the core, filled with despair.
The three small ships were quickly controlled by the Ming warships. After approaching, the crossbowmen on the ships fired a large number of arrows to attack them, killing many "warriors" and Southern Song sailors.
Afterwards, the Ming army sailors boarded the ship by jumping gangs. The three hundred "soldiers" on the ship carried out desperate resistance or jumped into the sea to survive, but in the end they failed.
Although they had undergone some military training, they were no match for professional sailors. They quickly gave up resistance and were captured without mercy, becoming prisoners of the Ming Navy.
More than half of the three hundred "soldiers" were killed in the battle, and a smaller half were captured by the Ming Navy, and then turned around and took them directly to Huainan.
In Huainan, the surviving "soldiers" were handed over by the navy to Su Yin, the commander of the Skynet Army who was waiting here.
When they were all arrested, Yu Yunwen didn't know about it.
After all, his job is still Deputy Privy Envoy, and he is a member of a six-person team. He still has many important things to do.
After Chen Kangbo passed a bill to increase military expenditures by 100 million yuan to reward the three armies, Yu Yunwen returned to his office and continued working. After a while, the eunuch arranged by Zhao Hao to help him deal with the "soldiers" was very panicked. ran over.
"Ms. sir, it's bad! The farm outside the city... is on fire!"
"What?"
Yu Yunwen was stunned and said in shock: "What's going on? Why is it on fire?"
"I don't know! Our people didn't react at all. When I sent someone to deliver the house in the morning, I discovered that the entire village was on fire. It was so burned! I don't even know if there are any living people inside!"
The eunuch said anxiously: "You'd better go and have a look, otherwise it will be a big problem!"
In a short period of time, Yu Yunwen's thoughts went through thousands of times, and then he stood up and followed the eunuch to the location of the "farm outside the city".
The fire had been put out when he arrived, but the entire Zhuangzi had been burned beyond recognition and was a complete mess. The eunuchs who arrived in advance sorted out some charred corpses, and they didn't know who was whose.
"Did they do it accidentally or..."
The eunuch looked at Yu Yunwen in panic: "Ms. sir, what's going on? Could it be that someone knew what we were going to do, so..."
"Impossible! Apart from me, only you know about this whole thing. You live in the inner palace all day long, and I..."
Yu Yunwen turned his head and stared at the eunuch fiercely: "Can it be said that I leaked this secret?!"
The eunuch quickly lowered his head and kept saying don't dare.
They don't dare, so what's going on?
The existence of this group of guys is not a secret. Because of the original political offensive against Su Yonglin and the Ming Dynasty, the entire Song Dynasty knew that there were many people in this group of refugees.
But since they lost their use value, no one cared about them. The news released by Yu Yunwen was to settle them in Lingnan, and did not tell anyone that they were living in a small farm near Lin'an City.
The only people who knew about this top-secret plan, besides himself and the emperor himself, were these eunuchs.
But this group of eunuchs have lived in groups since they did this. They have to take names every morning and evening, and supervise each other. Yu Yunwen told them that if they find something wrong, they can report it immediately and get a reward.
Under such a supervision mechanism, it is almost impossible for anyone to slip through the net, but why does this kind of thing still happen?
Looking at the village burned to the ground, Yu Yunwen's face looked very ugly, and he fell into extreme uneasiness.
What went wrong?
This place was destroyed, so the other place...
Are those three hundred "soldiers" okay? Still alive?
Who did this?
Are there people from the Ming Dynasty around Lin'an?
Did the Ming Dynasty's secret work sneak in?
Are you specifically here to hunt down these people?
Yu Yunwen fell into great uneasiness.
