Chapter 578: The Gathering of the Three Thieves (Part II)

Chen Dong's face changed slightly, and he blurted out: "Xiaohai, we want to attack Dongtai County, is this what Lord Shark means?" ”

A trace of coldness flashed in Monk Pujing's eyes, and he said lightly: "Such a big matter, if there is no instruction from Master Shark, do you think I dare to make a claim?" What's the matter, Brother Fei Dong doesn't want to rescue Chen Da's family? ”

"Xiaohai...... Look at what you said, the big boss is my own uncle, why don't I want to save him back, after all, the stakes are very high, and I have to ask clearly. Chen Dong replied with an unnatural smile.

Pujing didn't pay any attention to Chen Dong anymore, but turned his head to the Great Inner Sect and said, "How?" Are you interested in working with us? ”

A slight glimmer flashed in Chen Dong's eyes, in fact, he was unwilling to rescue Chen Sipan in his heart, after all, once Chen Sipan was rescued, then he would not be the boss. Of course, this is secondary, the key is that he left Chen Sipan and fled by himself, he knows his cold-tempered uncle very well, and he will never let himself go because of blood relationship, the best result is to be kicked out and left to fend for himself.

Da Nei Zongshu rolled his eyes and said: "Little Master Pujing, this huge amount of money is indeed very tempting, and I also know Miss Meizi in Xia, but with only our people, if we want to attack Dongtai County, I'm afraid we can't do it, right?" ”

Pu Jing said lightly: "Your Excellency Zong Shi is too worried, that Qin sent Xu Jin to lead the main force back to Yangzhou City, and now Dongtai County is only guarded by less than a thousand salt and patrol ding. Presumably, Your Excellency Zong has a deep understanding of the combat effectiveness of the Daming Local Guard, right? The Salt Ding and the Patrol Ding were even inferior to the Guards' Army. ”

At the beginning of last year, he killed the tribute envoy Rui Zuo of the Hosokawa family in Ningbo Mansion, Zhejiang, and then led hundreds of people to chase and kill Rui Zuo's translator Song Suqing, until he reached the Shaoxing Mansion City, crisscrossing hundreds of miles as if entering a no-man's land, and also killed several military attaches of the Ming Army Guard who tried to block him. After that, burning, killing and looting all the way, and then calmly escaping from the sea with a large amount of belongings. If it weren't for the heavy losses caused by the storm on the way back home, it is estimated that he would have been reused by his family by now, and he would have fled to the sea as a pirate like a lost dog.

"Okay, this deal is done!"

When Ouchi learned that the Ming army equipped with flintlock pistols was not in Dongtai County, he immediately and decisively agreed, and did not take the so-called 1,000 salt and patrol Ding in his eyes at all. Herds of cattle and sheep, no matter how large they are, pose no threat to wolves.

Monk Pujing grinned and said: "Your Excellency Zongshe is really refreshing, Brother Dong, let the brothers cook, and when they are full, they will be sent immediately, and they will take Dongtai County tomorrow." ”

Chen Dong couldn't help frowning and said, "So urgent? ”

Pu Jing said lightly: "Isn't it good to rescue the big boss as soon as possible?" ”

Chen Dong secretly hated in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "Of course it's good...... Ergouzi, let the brothers cook, let go of the belly to eat, there is work to be done tonight. ”

Da Nei Zongshi arched his hand and said: "Little Master Pujing, you Han people have a good saying, brothers settle accounts, how to divide the spoils after the matter is completed, it is better to make it clear first, so as not to make trouble when you get it." ”

Pujing nodded and said, "It's time to make it clear, how about Your Excellency Zong Shi take two percent?" ”

The Great Inner Sect suddenly frowned, and said meaningfully: "Your Excellency Zong Shi thinks it's less? ”

Ouchi Sect nodded and said, "It's really less." ”

"Don't be too little, nearly half of that shipment originally belonged to Dongsha Island, and besides, there is another group of people who are acting with us."

"Another gang? Who is it? Ouchi asked vigilantly.

Pujing smiled meaningfully and said: "It's also you Japanese people, you may know each other, but let me sell it first, and I'll know when we meet." ”

Ouchi Zongshu frowned, but he didn't ask any more questions.

After more than an hour, the robbers on the island finally had enough to eat and drink, and one by one they boarded the two big ships with great energy, lifted anchor and sailed away from Dongsha Island.

Today is the fifteenth day of March, and a bright moon hangs in the middle of the sky, so although it is night, the visibility on the sea is still quite good, and the two large ships sail in the direction of the mainland in the moonlight.

Whether it is Chen Dong or Ouchi Zongshou, they are all old birds across the sea, even if they sail at night, they will not make a mistake in the direction, about two hours or so, that is, at three or four o'clock in the morning, the two bow boats finally sailed to the coast of Dongtai County, less than three miles away from the shore.

On the deck at the bow of the ship, Chen Dong pointed to the two faint lights on the shore and reminded: "Xiaohai, there should be the Xixi Inspection Division, let's choose another location to land, so as not to be discovered." ”

Pu Jing waved his hand and said, "No, just land at the mouth of the river of the Inspection Division." ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Chen Dong's eyes, although Zhao Datong, the inspector of the Xixi Inspection Division, was also secretly involved in smuggling and had "business" dealings with Dongsha Island, but it is said that Zhao Datong and the two deputy inspectors had been arrested and imprisoned by Xu Jin, and now the person in charge of the Inspection Department is Zhu Kun, the commander of Dongtai County.

Pujing didn't pay attention to Chen Dong's doubts, but ordered the big boat to continue moving forward, and swaggered into the estuary to dock.

When the two bow boats docked at the estuary outside the Xixi Inspection Division, until everyone got off the boat and landed, the inspection department was still still flying in the river, and there was no movement.

"It's weird, those patrolmen are too sleepy, aren't they? Didn't hear such a big movement? Chen Dong muttered secretly in his heart.

Pujing took off a crossbow on his back, skillfully wound it, and buckled the sharp arrow, and then said to Chen Dong and Da Neizong: "Come with me!" ”

After Pujing finished speaking, he walked to the gate of the inspection camp first, and the Ouchi Zongshe and Chen Dong glanced at each other, pulled out their weapons and beckoned the brothers behind them to follow.

However, when Chen Dong and Da Nei Zongshe touched the gate of the camp of the inspection division like a great enemy, they suddenly smelled a strong smell of blood, and when they were stunned, a cold drink came from the camp gate: "Who? ”

Pu Jing said indifferently: "It's me!" ”

The door of the camp opened, and several Japanese samurai led by Hosokawa Takeshu came out murderously, still stained with undried blood.

A line of complexity flashed in Pujing's eyes, and he said approvingly: "It seems that His Excellency Hosokawa has succeeded." ”

Hosokawa Takeshu's face was triumphant, and he said proudly in slightly stiff Chinese: "It's just a piece of cake, all the one hundred and twenty people in the camp were killed, and none of them escaped the net, nor did they alarm the surrounding area." ”

It turned out that not long ago, Hosokawa Takeshu led his twenty samurai to attack the Xixi Inspection Division, and actually killed everyone here silently.

It is said that there were originally four or five hundred inspectors in the Xixi Inspection Division, but now most of them have been transferred to Dongtai County by Zhu Kun, and there are only one hundred and twenty people left in the Xixi Inspection Division.

The Xixi Inspection Division is the most convenient outlet to the sea near Dongtai County, and if you want to attack Dongtai County, you naturally have to take the Xixi Inspection Division first, so that it is convenient to escape afterwards, so Hosokawa Takeshu led people to attack the Xixi Inspection Division at night.

The inspectors of the Xixi Inspection Division are just a group of scumbags, coupled with lax vigilance, several inspectors who are on duty at night are killed before they even have time to issue the alarm, as for those inspectors who sleep like pigs in the room, almost half of them were wiped off their necks in their sleep, and only a small number of people woke up and rushed out, but they were cut in two by the cold and shining knives before they even tied their belts.

The whole process lasted less than half an hour, and the whole battalion of 120 people died, and even a large movement was not caused, so that the people in the nearby salt works were not alarmed.

For this result, Pujing is naturally quite satisfied, since he did not alarm the surrounding area, then he can arrange it more calmly and choose the most suitable time to launch an attack on Dongtai County.

"Yaga, Ouchi Sect!"

When the light of the torch shone over, at this time, Hosokawa Takeshu finally recognized the Ouchi Sect behind Pujing, and his eyes suddenly turned cold, and the sword in his hand came out of its sheath and turned into a piece of training and slashed towards the Ouchi Sect.

In fact, when Hosokawa Takeshu opened the door and came out, Ouchi Sosa recognized him, so he kept hiding in the shadows behind Pujing, and he held the hilt of the knife early to be on guard.

While......

Ouchi Takeshu swung his sword to block Hosokawa Takeshu's sharp sword, but Hosokawa Takeshu's skills are obviously far superior to Ouchi Takeshu, in fact, Hosoko Takeshu is also one of the best masters in the Wa Kingdom.

Brush Brush Brush ......

I saw that Hosokawa Takeshu's footsteps didn't move much, but he slashed out three knives as fast as lightning, and after the last knife, Ouchi Sosui's right hand sleeve was silently cut off, and he was almost cut off by a knife.

Ouchi Soshu was frightened into a cold sweat, and retreated a few steps in embarrassment, and the samurai behind him also hurriedly rushed forward to protect the master, but the two were killed by Hosokawa Takeshu when they met, and the terrible screams resounded through the night sky.

Pujing's complexion changed rapidly, the crossbow arrow in his hand was aimed at Hosokawa Takeshu, and he shouted in a cold voice: "Stop!" ”

Hosokawa Takeshu was stunned, put away the knife and took a step back, the sword that killed the two people was not stained with a drop of blood, it was obviously not ordinary.

"Little Master Pujing, what do you mean by that?" Hosokawa Takesa's gaze was like a blade staring at Pujing.

Pu Jing said expressionlessly: "Lao Tzu doesn't care if you have any previous grievances, whoever dares to do bad things at this juncture, Lao Tzu will kill him." ”

Hosokawa Wushu's complexion changed, and finally chose to return the sword to the sheath, although he was not afraid of Pujing, but in the future, he would have to rely on the salt transportation to supply supplies to Shi Haoran, so he could only endure it, and glanced coldly at the Ouchi Sect and said: "For the sake of the little master's face, I will spare your life for the time being." ”

Pujing couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and put away the crossbow arrow aimed at Hosokawa Wushu, he was actually quite scared of Hosokawa Wushu, this guy's skills were too terrifying, and Pujing asked himself if he was not an opponent.

Ouchi Zongshe arched his hand silently, at this time he already understood that he was pitted by Pujing, if Pujing had already told him that the other group of people was Hosokawa Takeshu, he would not have waded into the troubled waters this time, and now he can only recognize his grandson with his tail between his legs.
