Chapter 593: Missing
The Zheng family, the richest man in Dongtai County, has the door of the house closed, and dozens of nurses and family members are holding various weapons and waiting for them. As the so-called preparedness, despite collusion with thieves, the Zheng family is also worried that there are invisible thieves who will run to the Zheng family to rob.
At this time, in the hall of the middle courtyard of the Zheng family, Zheng Shirong, the head of the family nicknamed Zheng Bancheng, was walking around restlessly, like a yard ant on a hot pot. It's no wonder, after all, helping thieves to attack the city is a conspiracy to rebel, which is a felony of the nine clans, once the matter is revealed, then the Zheng family will be completely finished.
Seeing that nearly an hour has passed, and gunshots are still heard from time to time on the county government's side, it is obvious that Chen Dong and others have not yet taken the county government warehouse, Zheng Shirong is naturally more and more anxious, after all, the longer the time drags on, the more unfavorable it will be.
At this moment, an old housekeeper ran in with a nervous look and reported: "Master, Zhu County's order is here!" ”
Zheng Shirong was shocked, he just thought that the matter was exposed, Zhu Kun came to the door to raid the house, so frightened that he turned around and fled to the backyard, the old housekeeper hurriedly grabbed him and said: "Don't panic, master, Zhu Kun is here to borrow people from us." ”
Zheng Shirong couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, raised his hand and slapped the housekeeper and scolded: "The old goods that wild dogs entered, why didn't you make it clear earlier." ”
Zheng Shirong said as he straightened his clothes and strode to the front yard, and the old butler chased after him with his hot cheeks.
Zheng Shirong took people to the front yard, climbed the ladder up the wall to take a look, and sure enough, he saw Dongtai County Ling Zhu Su waiting outside the door with dozens of people, so he pretended to be panicked and arched his hand and said: "Lord Zhu, dare to ask what happened in the city?" The soldiers outside are chaotic, and it is inconvenient for the contemptible people to open the door to greet them. ”
Zhu Kun didn't care, and said in a deep voice: "Dongsha Island pirate Chen Dong and the Japanese invaded the city to rob the prison, this county is gathering people to encircle and suppress the thieves, the Zheng family is a big local household, and this county has specially come to Zheng Yuanwai to transfer people to suppress the thieves. ”
Zheng Shirong's heart moved, and he said awe-inspiringly: "The rise and fall of the world, the husband is still responsible, not to mention that Dongtai County and my Zheng family share weal and woe, and it is incumbent on the thief to defend the family, so I sent twenty people to assist the county lord to suppress the thief." ”
Zhu Kun frowned, the Zheng family obviously has nearly 100 people in the nursing home and family, but only 20 people are stingy, but it is not easy to blame at this time, and he arched his hand and said: "This county has thanked Zheng Yuanwai for understanding the righteousness. ”
Soon, the Zheng family selected twenty family members to hand over to Zhu Kun, who didn't say much and continued to gather people from the next family.
Zheng Shirong watched Zhu Kun lead nearly 100 people to walk away with torches, and immediately climbed down the ladder and ordered his henchmen to rush to the county government to report to Chen Dong.
"You old thing, what are you looking at?" Zheng Shirong was in an anxious mood, and when he saw that the old housekeeper was still standing on the ladder, poking his head out of the wall to watch, he asked impatiently.
The old housekeeper slowly climbed from the ladder, came to Zheng Shining's side, and said in a low voice with a strange expression: "Master, why is the body of Lao Dutou missing outside the door?" ”
The old Du head in the housekeeper's mouth is the old man Du who has been working in Dongtai County for 40 years, so no one knows him.
Zheng Shirong frowned and said, "Could it be that Zhu Kun let people carry it away?" ”
The old housekeeper shook his head and said: "Zhu Kun is busy gathering people now, where is there time to dispose of the corpse, and the body of Lao Dutou's nephew is still there, Zhu Kun can't just move Lao Dutou's body, but he left his nephew's body." ”
Zheng Shirong's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly climbed the ladder to the wall again, took a closer look through the moonlight that had been slanting westward, and sure enough, he saw that there was only the body of a young man lying near the stone lion in front of the door, but the body of the old man was gone.
Zheng Shirong climbed down the wall and asked people to open the door and carry a lantern to go out to look for it, but only to see a pool of blood left on the ground, Lao Dutou's body was indeed gone, and he couldn't help but look ugly and asked: "Old man, are you sure the person is dead?" ”
The old butler nodded on his left chest and said, "If you stab it here, you must be dead, and you will not move in this position at that time." ”
Zheng Shirong couldn't help but say suspiciously: "Then why is the body missing?" Is it a corpse? ”
At this time, a cold wind blew, Zheng Shirong and the old housekeeper couldn't help but shrink their necks, and hurriedly retreated to the house and closed the door.
……
Although it was already the middle of March, there was still a chill at two or three o'clock in the morning, and the cold moon hung obliquely in the western sky.
At this time, the fierce battle in the county warehouse continued, although the thieves were outnumbered, but the 500 battalions of soldiers occupied a favorable position, coupled with the sharp firearms, so the defense was stable, the thieves could not attack, and nearly 50 people were killed and wounded.
As the saying goes, one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion. The thieves launched several fierce attacks to no avail, but dozens of people were killed and wounded, and their morale was greatly damaged, and they all became cringe, no matter how Chen Dong urged and lured, no one dared to easily attack the hospital.
"grandma, how much ammunition do these dog officers and soldiers have." Chen Dong scolded and said angrily.
Ori Shin Miko said affirmatively: "I have observed that these Ming troops have a wooden box that carries ammunition, and it is estimated that there are only fifteen to twenty ammunition in it, which should be almost used up, Chen Dongjun might as well send some more people in to consume their ammunition." ”
Chen Dong's triangular eyes squinted, and he said with a fierce light: "You widow said it lightly, it's not your person who dares to die in love." ”
It is said that among the more than 50 people killed and wounded, most of them were pirates under Chen Dong.
Orishin Miko was originally a proud person, but her face suddenly sank, and she sneered at each other: "With your kind of color, you are not as good as a girl." ”
Chen Dong couldn't help but be furious, and was about to attack, when a pirate hurriedly ran over and reported: "Big boss, I just received the news that Zhu Kun, the commander of Dongtai County, is gathering people in the city, preparing to attack us from behind. ”
Chen Dong rolled his eyes, looked at Ori Shin Miko, and said with a smile: "Aren't you quite capable of this girl?" Do you dare to face Zhu Kun? ”
Ori Shin Miko said coldly and arrogantly: "Why don't you dare, Your Excellency Hosokawa, can you lend me ten samurai?" ”
Hosokawa Takesa's eyes flashed, and he said with a smile: "No problem, I can lend all the twenty samurai under my hand to Miss Miko." ”
Orishimiko said proudly: "No, ten people are enough, but I need a bow!" ”
Monk Pujing glanced at Chen Dong, who handed a bow and a pot of feather arrows to Orishin Miko, and said with a smile: "I wish Miss Miko a victory, she looks so good, don't die." ”
Orishin Miko sneered: "It is estimated that when I brought back the head of Zhu Kun, Chen Dongjun had not been able to take the warehouse!" ”
After Orishimiko finished speaking, she took the ten samurai of Hosokawa Takeshu and turned around and went to the prefectural office.
Chen Dong smiled and said to Hosokawa Wushu: "Your Excellency Hosokawa, is it your turn this time?" ”
The Great Inner Sect immediately nodded and agreed: "Chen Dongjun is right, Your Excellency Hosokawa, it is indeed your person." ”
It is said that in this attack on Dongtai County, Ouchi Zong set up thirty-five people, Chen Dong thirty-eight people, Hosokawa Takeshu twenty-one people, and most of the dead and wounded at this time were Chen Dong's people, Ouchi Sect's men also died five and wounded three, but Hosokawa Takeshu's men were not killed or injured. Therefore, Chen Dong and Ouchi Zongshi are psychologically unbalanced.
Hosokawa Takeshu also apparently understood that it was impossible to make any more moves, so he ordered his five samurai to attack.
Hosokawa Takeshu's five subordinates were all elites of a hundred battles, and they were afraid to die in the courtyard while holding the door panel, and the gunshots rang out immediately...... (https:)
