"Go up and have a look?"
Liu Yiyuan suggested.
It's easy to become addicted to peeking into people's privacy.
Ever since he became the commander of this reconnaissance brigade and learned all kinds of incredible reconnaissance methods from Zuo Mengeng, Liu Yiyuan has been deeply involved in it.
Zuo Mengeng decisively refused.
"No, so as not to alert the enemy."
If this was a movie or TV show, the actors would have definitely taken the chance to investigate.
It is very powerful to go deep into a tiger's den, narrowly escape death, and use various cool technologies to gather intelligence.
However, reality is not a movie or TV show.
The top priority is to be safe while protecting yourself and not being noticed by the target.
No one knows how many Wenxiang Cult eyes are in the Yinbi Pavilion.
When they came here for the first time, they were not familiar with the place. If they rushed in rashly, the probability of not being discovered was lower than winning the lottery.
"Then what should we do? Just wait?"
Not being able to show off his talents made Liu Yiyuan quite depressed.
Zuo Mengeng remained calm and said: "Pay the bill and leave."
Liu Yiyuan was shocked.
"Leave now? Haven't heard anything yet?"
Zuo Mengeng looked at him funny.
"If we wait until the woman leaves before leaving, do you think...will people doubt our motives?"
Liu Yiyuan suddenly realized and learned another trick.
…………………………
In the dark corner of Yinbi Pavilion, the madam stood quietly by the window, watching the situation in the hall and cracking melon seeds.
A turtle man came quietly and whispered: "Those two strangers are gone."
The madam was stunned.
"gone?"
Mr. Turtle reported truthfully.
"The scholar threw away five taels of silver and gave me another two taels of silver as a reward. But he scolded me as he walked, saying that the food here is terrible."
The old bustard thought quietly for a moment, then said: "He is a real traveler, and he knows the market very well. Forget it, go do your own thing."
After leaving Yinbi Pavilion, Zuo Mengeng and Liu Yiyuan were still wandering around.
However, Zuo Mengeng's hidden gesture was seen by the vegetable vendor across the street.
In the evening, the person responsible for monitoring Yinbi Pavilion came back and reported the situation.
"After the woman went in, she stayed for more than an hour. When she came out, she went back to the governor's Yamen."
Zuo Mengeng immediately made a judgment.
"She's here to meet someone."
Liu Yiyuan also agreed with this judgment.
"The question is who did she meet, and what is Xu Yaqing going to do? How about we send someone else to sneak in and stay there?"
Zuo Mengeng was so funny.
The next step is to assign tasks and teach the scout leader at the same time.
"Dengzhou is a small town, and the flow of people is limited. Naturally, there are even fewer people who can enter and exit Yinbi Pavilion. Why do we have to go in to check things in a place like this? We just need to keep an eye on the entrances and exits and see what happens next. Day, just people coming in and out.”
Sure enough, during the surveillance in the next few days, everyone found that most of the people entering and leaving Yinbi Pavilion were local officials, gentry and wealthy people.
As the largest brothel in Dengzhou, there were only a dozen guests coming in and out for three consecutive days.
With the addition of handymen and the like, personnel monitoring is very easy.
During these three days, the woman came in and out of Yinbi Pavilion every day. Each time I stayed for more than an hour and then left.
Three days later, a new situation emerged.
"Qianzuo, someone came out of Yinbi Pavilion. Two strangers I have never seen before."
Zuo Mengeng said immediately: "This is where the contact person has finished talking and is ready to leave. Let's go and find an opportunity to capture these two people."
Everyone took action immediately and slowly tightened the encirclement from different directions.
At the same time, the maid also returned to the governor's Yamen and met Xu Yaqing.
"It's settled. They take Jifu and we take Shandong. We won't interfere with each other and take care of each other."
Hearing this, Xu Yaqing showed a calculating smile.
"Haha, those dog officials in the court mistakenly thought that this was all we needed to make trouble in Jifu and Linqing. Little did they know, the fun is yet to come."
After saying that, she regained her coolness and ordered: "Tell brothers everywhere to speed up preparations. No later than this year, we will be able to overthrow this day and welcome the birth of the lamp-burning Buddha."
The maid was also excited by the news and hurried away.
…………………………
"These two people came straight here after coming out of Yinbi Pavilion."
This is the dock outside Dengzhou Water City.
To leave Dengzhou, there are land and water routes to choose from.
If you take the land route, you can go to various places in the Ming Dynasty.
But if you take the water route...
Zuo Mengeng was puzzled and didn't know where the two of them were going.
But it doesn't matter, their goal this time is to capture these two people and get specific information.
If this secret is not solved, the hidden danger will be greater than if Xu Yaqing is not caught.
The reconnaissance brigade moved quickly, and an encirclement network was quickly formed, slowly approaching the two people from all directions.
The two people who were walking suddenly came together and said something, and they suddenly started running wildly, obviously realizing that something was wrong.
When Zuo Mengeng, who was hanging at the back, saw it, he stopped hiding it and shouted: "Do it."
In the direction where the two men were running, five soldiers were surrounding them. After hearing the order, he immediately pounced on them.
The light of Pi Lian's sword flashed without any warning, followed by two screams, and two soldiers died tragically under the sword in an instant.
Those two people actually had weapons.
The others were shocked, and they also drew their weapons and started fighting.
The road leading to the pier is lined with fish markets, which is very lively.
Suddenly, they drew their swords and hacked people to death. The innocent passers-by immediately became confused and fled in all directions, howling.
Zuo Mengeng finally squeezed out of the chaotic crowd and saw a scene with eyes wide open.
Four of the five soldiers who came up in the first wave fell down at this time, and one was still struggling to hold on.
These are carefully trained scouts, the most elite soldiers in the rear camp. Normally against other brigades, two can handle ten.
However, at this time, five against two, there were heavy casualties.
However, these five soldiers were not without gains. One of the two was stabbed once in the waist, abdomen and left arm. The blood was dripping with blood and his organs were turned out.
When Zuo Mengeng rushed forward, the last soldier failed to hold on. He was stabbed twice and his neck was cut off. He must not be able to save his life.
In unbearable grief, Zuo Mengeng also became ruthless. With the roar of the evil wolf, he drew his knife and struck the injured person.
The man turned out to be very fierce. He suddenly overturned his bamboo hat and cloak and slashed at Zuo Mengeng with his knife.
But when this person showed his face, everyone was shocked.
With a bare head, a thin money rat tail on the back of the head, and a Yan Ling knife that is curved from the tip to the handle, the identity is self-evident.
The people around who were watching the excitement were the first to explode, shouting and running further away.
"The Tatars are coming!"
"The Tatars are coming!"
Zuo Mengeng never thought that the person connecting Wenxiang Sect would be Donglu.
Coupled with the tragic death of his brothers in the army, his anger reached its peak.
At the same time as he was approaching like lightning, the tip of the knife squeezed the side of the opponent's knife, and the whole person was wiped into it.
This time it was really fast. Before the Tatar could react, the main artery had been cut open by the blade, and blood spurted out in an instant, like a bloody rain.
The other one was obviously a Tatar. When he saw his friend died under Zuo Mengeng's knife, he immediately rushed over shouting something he couldn't understand, wanting revenge.
After killing one, Zuo Mengeng's anger did not diminish and he went straight to meet him.
These two Tatars have extraordinary martial arts skills and are fierce and tough. They are obviously not ordinary people. If other soldiers from the reconnaissance brigade were allowed to come up again, it would only increase casualties.
The best way is for him to solve it himself.
Behind him, Liu Yiyuan looked at the bloody and tragic scene, feeling a little confused.
The fierce battle at the pier that day made him think it was the limit. Today we know how terrifying real battlefield fighting is.
However, this shock lasted only a short time. He quickly came to his senses and raised his knife to step forward to help.
Just as he was about to take steps, a strange roar in the distance and a scream breaking through the air suddenly came close.
Then the house next to it seemed to be hit by some huge force. In an instant, the bricks collapsed, causing mud and dust to surge, and the ground shook.
Zuo Mengeng was also hit, and he fell horizontally far away.
It took a lot of effort to get up, but found that the remaining tartar had turned into a puddle of minced meat.
Not far away, a black and rumbling iron ball was rolling back and forth, emitting thick smoke and heat, and carrying the nauseating smell of blood.
Before he understood what was going on, Liu Yiyuan had already rushed up, grabbed his arm and ran away.
"Come on, it's a rebel army!"
Where did the rebels come from?
Zuo Mengeng looked around and saw that the other soldiers of the reconnaissance brigade were quickly converging and running as fast as they could.
Suddenly someone screamed and fell down, only to see an arrow nailed to his calf.
Two people immediately rushed over, helped him up and continued running, not daring to stop at all.
Zuo Mengeng looked beyond them and looked further away.
I saw that on the originally calm sea, there were now a large number of boats and ships swarming in. Countless soldiers howled and rushed onto the beach, destroying everything wherever they went.
The people ran around wailing, and many people fell under the butcher's knife.
Many women were caught, their clothes were torn in broad daylight, and they were brutally humiliated.
Immediately, the entire dock burst into flames and became even more chaotic.
Zuo Mengeng was dragged away by Liu Yiyuan, and he could faintly see the eye-catching flags on the boats amid the bumps.
Submit a letter with the word "Mao"!
Seeing the people being massacred, humiliated, and robbed, and seeing the originally peaceful Dengzhou fall into disaster and turmoil, Zuo Mengeng was furious, and a murderous roar burst out from between his shattered teeth.
"Mao Wenlong..."
In April of the second year of Chongzhen, Mao Wenlong plundered Denglai!
