Ning Wuyang stepped forward and asked in a low voice: "Brother Qin Shi, is there anyone I missed?"
After chasing out from Xiaoxiang Pavilion, Baichuan Hui and Qin Shibing split into two groups to pursue the Japanese Xizuo who left.
The group of people tracked by Baichuan Society went to the vicinity of the government office, and the remaining group were made by the Japanese who sneaked in from Xuanwu Lake according to Ning Wuchang's idea.
However, since Qin Shi was tracking alone, and there were many waterways in Xuanwu Lake, everyone along the way was thinking about how to report the situation to Ning Wushuang and the others. Seeing that the Japanese craftsmen were about to leave the moat, he planned to climb over the wall and set up a trap to intercept them in advance. kill.
Unexpectedly, Ning Wuyan arrived here earlier than him.
Qin Shi was filled with admiration for Ning Wushu's clever calculation, and replied in a low voice: "Mr. Ning, don't worry, I have been keeping an eye on their number, and none of them fell behind or left early. All the money they defrauded has been lost." In the moat.”
With Qin Shi's words, Ning Wuhuang felt at ease.
No matter what the situation is in eradicating the Japanese army in the city, at least the backbone of the Japanese army can all feed the fish tonight.
"General Yu, the number of people and the amount of silver escorted by the Japanese country has not been missed since the departure from Xuanwu Lake. When they show up, they can draw their bows."
Yu Zhengrong nodded calmly and gestured to the deputy.
All the officers and soldiers immediately filled up the bow strings quietly, and the officers and soldiers responsible for providing fire placed the kerosene barrel in front of the archer, holding the fire folder in one hand and holding the cap tightly with the other.
Just waiting for an order, they launched a fire attack.
On the water surface, with the waves coming from the city, little bits of oily light were reflected under the weak moonlight.
That is kerosene poured on the water in advance. In this way, when the rocket is fired, the attackers will be confused by the burning of the water, thus reducing their own casualties during the fight.
Just as everyone was getting ready to go, the water waves coming from the city gradually increased.
After Ning Wuyan listened, he quickly took two steps back and raised his sword in front of Ning Wuyan to protect him.
"Fifth brother, the Japanese are coming."
finally come!
Ning Wuyan was not only feeling itchy in his heart while waiting, but also itchy from autumn mosquito bites all over his body. Hearing the sound of water, he could not wait to go into battle and kill several Japanese people.
At this time, the pathfinder in the moat had already swam across the city wall.
Just before dawn, it was the darkest moment. The two of them were in the water and could not see what was happening a hundred steps away. They could only rely on the sounds they heard with their ears to judge the safety above the water.
"unmanned."
"Repay."
The two of them were in the water and were about to turn around and dive in.
Suddenly there was an oily smell pouring into the nasal cavity.
What is the taste?
Although the two felt a little strange, they turned around and saw Kono following behind them. They knew that this was the moment when the soldiers guarding the city were slacking off, and the opportunity could not be missed. They could not let him go just because there was the slightest strange smell in the water. Everyone goes back.
The older of the two pointed behind him, asking the younger to report first.
He would continue to sneak forward for a while to confirm the cause of the strangeness.
Hua Hua Hua...
The moat is not like the wide Xuanwu Lake. Even if there are many people and boxes carrying silver, there will be no waves.
As long as someone moves around, it will make a sound.
In order to prevent the defenders from finding out, the elders could no longer stay on the water and had to dive into the water to move forward.
But when he dived less than ten meters forward, a sense of crisis arose spontaneously, before he could understand why.
Whoosh!
When he heard the sound, he raised his head and saw a firelight speeding towards him in the darkness, reflecting the soldiers covered with cold light and armor around him, making him take a gulp of cold moat water.
Duh duh duh!
The arrow fell, and the elder was hit by an arrow on each shoulder. The severe pain made him struggle to kick his legs back and shout at the same time.
"There's an ambush!"
The elder's roar spread far away through the sound of water.
In fact, there was no need for him to open his mouth. The sky-filling fire and the moat that appeared immediately made the Japanese people who came after them understand that they had been ambushed.
"Back off!"
"All back!"
Seeing the fire on the water, Kono made an immediate decision and gave orders in Japanese.
"Put the box down and stand back!"
The people who were responsible for transporting the boxes were already exhausted after traveling all the way.
If they carried the box and backed away at this time, not only would they be dead, but they would also expose the fact that they had the money with them.
If you sink the box into the moat, you might be able to come back and get it again.
Kono thought so and gave the order.
But Iwasasaburo suddenly panicked when he saw hundreds of officers and soldiers waiting in formation under the firelight on the water.
"You can't put down the box and leave it to Daxing people for nothing!"
The damn Daxing people actually knew their escape route!
Someone must have told the Daxing people that dropping the box at this time would be equivalent to handing over money to others.
"Iwasa-kun, the most important thing for us now is to save our lives. The exit of this moat can only accommodate one box. If we don't abandon the box, even the person and the money will be left here!"
Kono was splashing in the water and shouting. When he saw Iwasaburo's angry face and wanted to retort, he spotted a flying sharp arrow out of the corner of his eye. He was so bold that he kicked Iwasaburo from the water.
Duh!
The sharp arrow hit Iwasasaburo in the back of the head.
Until his death, Iwasasaburo could not believe that he would actually die in the hands of his own people. He was still struggling to say something, but Naihe's body was weak and he could only slowly spit out bubbles and float on the water waves.
"Iwasa-kun was shot by an arrow from the Daxing people. Everyone listen to my order, retreat and ambush outside the city. As long as we return to the city, we can break out, or capture the Daxing people as hostages!"
At such a critical moment, Kono's seizure of power did not arouse everyone's opposition.
After all, although Saburo Iwasa is responsible for liaison with the entire Jiangnan Road stronghold, Kono is their immediate superior.
In addition, Iwasa Saburo regards wealth as his life and wants them to increase the danger. They just want Iwasasaburo to shut up.
At this time, Kono was in power, and everyone relieved themselves of their heavy burdens. They didn't have time to make a mark, and went into battle lightly. While dodging the rockets behind them, they swam towards the river leading to the city.
"Give it!"
"Don't squeeze!"
The Japanese people rushed to squeeze into the passage.
In order to protect himself, Kono waited until a dozen people got into the passage and then swam into the city.
However.
As soon as he arrived in the city, he saw a brighter light under the water than outside the city.
Torch!
They are all torches!
In addition, the light from the torch also intercepted a huge net composed of wire and fishing nets at the place where the river widened about ten feet away.
Seeing this big net, Kono quickly raised his head out of the water and signaled to his men who were trying to squeeze in from behind to stop.
He stared blankly at the dozens of Daxing people standing on the river bank, armed with eighteen kinds of weapons and dressed in Jianghu chivalry, with a sad smile on his face.
"There were officers and soldiers in front of us and obstacles behind us. There was no movement when we came. When we came back, we temporarily arranged so many things. The Daxing people are really good at it. They calculated that we would pass through this place and specially laid out two traps, waiting for us. Jump in."
"Leader, what should we do now?"
The men who swam back first panicked when they saw the big net blocking the road.
Are they going to die in the moat of Jinling tonight?
