Chapter 2 Night Attack Silence (2 in 1)
Just like Bai Shier at the time, when the freshness of going out to sea quickly dissipated, Zhu Jinxuan quickly lost her enthusiasm. Every day, there is a blue scenery of the sea and sky. No matter how magnificent it is, no matter how exciting it is, when you see it too much, you will be bored.
At this time, Zhu Jinxuan couldn't help but miss everything on the land.
She missed all kinds of warm food, the guest rooms in the inn, and the many people and things of all kinds when she arrived in a small town. Even the trees that originally looked like bare trunks were left in her eyes because the leaves were withered, so they seemed to have no beauty. At this time, they became the objects she missed extremely.
The only thing that made her feel stronger than on land was perhaps the white seabirds that suddenly appeared recently.
What made her even more grateful for these seabirds was that when she first saw these seabirds, the sailors on the boat told her that the destination was about to arrive.
Because I had been praying before that I could leave the vast sea as soon as possible and return to the land, and the appearance of this bird seemed to have helped her achieve this wish.
Therefore, in her mind, these white birds seemed to have become the blue bird under the legendary Queen Mother of the West that brought people hope news.
Therefore, even though these birds were all white, even if Bai Shier had no choice but to tell her that the name of these birds was seagull, she stubbornly named them Bluebird.
Although Bai Shier could tell Zhu Jinxuan the reason, he eventually gave up.
It's just a name, why bother him? Will it be any harm to let Zhu Jinxuan continue to maintain such innocence?
Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan finally set foot on land again.
The only two of them left on the sea boat. After sending the two to the still deserted shore with a small boat, the sea boat Zhang Fan continued to go south. They were smuggled with silk, the destination, Nanyang, and being able to take the two of them on a journey was obviously entirely for the sake of Zhang Bin, the Minister of War.
Or rather, it is based on the Zhang family's status in Songjiang Prefecture and the vast mulberry forests owned by the Zhang family.
However, for Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan, it is obviously not the time to think about this kind of problem. Their most urgent task is to find out their exact location. After all, even the boss of the ship with rich experience in sailing only knows to put the two of them down in the territory of Zhangzhou Prefecture. As for the more exact location, he is obviously powerless.
For Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan, the only thing that is to be thankful is that the boss of the ship is quite conscientious. He sent the two to ashore when it was dawn and did not throw them ashore in the middle of the night...
...
While Bai Shier and Zhu Jinxuan were still having a headache about figuring out their exact location, in the mountains less than a hundred miles away, the third team of Gaotianyuan ushered in a catastrophe.
Just after the ten days agreed with Hu Xiaolin, Li Wujiu immediately issued an order without hesitation.
The delay in the operation time is not all harmful. After at least ten days of hard work, the East Factory has almost figured out all the situations of the third team.
Judging from the situation obtained, the third team is in a bad situation. In order to survive, they have even gradually moved closer to the bandits.
Perhaps the situation of the third team is not good, which is good news for the East Factory, which is going to wipe out them before, but it is obviously not so wonderful for Li Wujiu.
After carefully reading the confession of Tomosuke Fujiwara, he knew that Chen Wanan survived as a prisoner in the third team. Moreover, because the death of the former captain Fujiwara Saburo and the weakness of the third team were closely related to Chen Wanan, the attitude of the entire third team towards Chen Wanan was not considered friendly.
When the situation was still acceptable before, Chen Wanan might be able to survive, but now he is about to lose his life in the third team, who can guarantee whether those Japanese without restraint will kill Chen Wanan in anger.
Even if they didn't do anything, Chen Wan'an would definitely not be able to eat a bite when it was a problem for them to eat by themselves. In a few days, even if Chen Wan'an was not killed, he would starve to death.
So Li Wujiu, who had been anxious and wanted to directly destroy the ten-day agreement with Hu Xiaolin, immediately issued an order to attack as soon as the agreed day with Hu Xiaolin came.
With the intention of making a fool of yourself, even if the third team is in its heyday, it is probably not enough time to last, not to mention that it has already lost a lot of strength, and now it is at the point where even the stomach is almost unable to fill.
The East Factory players quietly touched the base of the third team all the way, and then took advantage of the sleepiest time of the predecessors in Dawn, and launched a thunderous attack.
I never expected that someone would attack the poor third team, who had no food, and they were confused in an instant. Even if several team leaders woke up in time and gave orders loudly, they were unable to stop the Japanese warriors of the third team from falling into collapse.
Li Wujiu, who was under the pressure of capturing Chen Wan'an alive, had no sympathy for these overseas barbarians, but he was worried that he would accidentally kill Chen Wan'an. After seeing that the third team had completely collapsed and could not gather together to cause any threat, he immediately asked his subordinates to persuade him to surrender loudly. Even if the other party was stubborn, if he had no choice, he would not hurt the vitals and save the other party's life.
Although surrender was a very humiliating act for the Japanese samurai, even if they wanted to resist, their bodies, which had not had enough food for many days, could not provide them with much support.
In addition, the team leader who had given loud orders before had already been noticed that their East Factory masters worked together to capture them alive. Under the headless dragons, someone soon put down their weapons and squatted on the ground with their heads in their arms.
With the first example of surrender, the remaining Japanese warriors quickly followed suit, threw down their weapons, and squatted on the ground with their heads in their arms.
Seeing this situation, Li Wujiu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He knew in his heart that the situation had stabilized.
So, he was anxious about whether Chen Wanan was still alive, and immediately ordered his subordinates to take several Japanese squadron leaders who had just been caught to him.
"Where is Chen Wan'an?"
He was anxious and straightforward.
But the team leader he asked seemed to still have the last pride. Even though he was pressed tightly by the two Dongchang players, he still had his neck stammering, staring at Li Wujiu with his eyes straight, without saying a word.
"Drag and chop it down."
With so many captured prisoners, Li Wujiu naturally didn't mind killing a few people with hard necks. He didn't believe that all the thirty or forty people here could have such hard necks.
However, Li Wujiu did underestimate these three Japanese samurai who could serve as team leader. The second and third Japanese samurai were quickly ordered to be chopped down in the same way by Li Wujiu.
But these three team leaders seemed to be the last three Japanese with hard necks. When Li Wujiu, who had a gray face, turned his murderous eyes to the Japanese prisoners squatting on the ground, a Japanese soon shivered and raised his hand.
"I know, I know, I know where Chen Wan'an is."
...
When Li Wujiu followed the trembling Japanese man holding his hands up and saw Chen Wanan in the cellar of a remote woodshed, a hint of glory appeared on Li Wujiu's face.
Although Chen Wanan was as worried before, because of his long hunger, his body buried in the hay looked no longer much different from the thin firewood beside him.
Fortunately, Chen Wanan was just weak, but he was not dead yet, and was not even dying.
Li Wujiu, who found the main master, immediately ordered his men to make the last bit of food he collected into porridge and replenish it for Chen Wan'an first, so as not to lose the last bit of vitality on the way back due to bumps and other trivial matters on the way back.
As for the remaining more than 20 Japanese people who had no value, Li Wujiu, who did not want to take time and effort to take them back to the county town and consume food, made a move to wipe his neck at his confidant.
The smell of blood already filled the third team's base reached its peak among many different sounds such as unwilling exclamations and miserable begging for mercy, and drifted out with the wind.
Not far away, many wild beasts in the mountains who had been hungry for a winter also smelled the smell of food, and hesitated, and finally rushed to the place where blood came from under the drive of instinct.
And on their heads, flocks of crows have gathered together.
In the east, the sky is getting whiter.
...
Another big fire turned the third team's newly built base into a sea of fire. At the same time, the thick smoke rising from the sky, the smoke and charred smell drifting into the sky, made the beasts and crows, who had originally smelled blood, hesitated.
The fear of flames has long been engraved in their genes and will be passed on from generation to generation.
Food is certainly a huge temptation, but if they want to live for it and become another victim of the flame, they are obviously unwilling to do so.
Chen Wanan, who had been fed a small bowl of porridge, finally woke up a little.
He was no longer surrounded by yellow hay and dark brown dry firewood. He lay on a donkey cart, with a cotton-filled quilt covered with warm bear skins.
He looked familiar with this bear skin because the bear was killed by his subordinates in front of him and eventually fell into Fujiwara Tomokazu's hands.
All the Japanese were dead!
Soon, he recalled everything that happened not long ago.
He was the only one who was still alive and was taken care of in every detail.
But he did not feel any joy in his heart because he knew that sometimes, living may be far more terrifying than death.
"Li Chutou, Chen Wan'an is awake."
Sure enough, the next moment, the clear sound from his ears made Chen Wanan know that he was not rescued, but fell from the wolf's nest to the tiger's den.
Facade head.
Chen Wan'an has naturally heard of this title, and this special title has always been this one and no branch.
East Factory.
After knowing the identities of these people who "save" him, Chen Wanan naturally immediately understood what the other party wanted from him.
Even though he had been isolated from the outside world for nearly half a year in the hands of the third team, he still knew very well how much impact that incident would have.
Otherwise, how could he have the idea of assassinating Saburo Fujiwara or even destroying all the Japanese?
And now, this decision has come to him.
Should I commit suicide, keep the secret that Dongchang wants to know very much, or choose to reveal the secret to Dongchang for his life.
Or maybe he could use this as capital to ask Dongchang for cooperation, and wait until everything is over and let him leave Jiuzhou and go out to sea to reunite with his family who should have fled to Nanyang.
No, the last possibility is close to nothing. Even if the Dongchang agrees, it will be impossible to fulfill the promise in the end.
Perhaps, the moment I spit out that person's name, the only value I have left is to testify against that person. And at the end of everything, I have no last bit of value, I am afraid that I will be thrown away immediately without hesitation by Dongchang as if I had thrown away a piece of rag.
Chen Wanan was thinking fiercely in his mind, consuming less than half a bowl of porridge he had just replenished.
The energy of less than half a bowl of porridge could undoubtedly not withstand his consumption. Soon, he reached dizziness and closed his eyes with panting.
"This post knows that you have guessed our identities and why we saved you. This post knows that you are just thinking about how to save your life in this matter."
Chen Wanan, who closed his eyes, couldn't help but squeeze his heart when he heard the footsteps coming from his ears. However, what greeted him was not a harsh question, but a slightly contemptuous word from the other party.
"However, this post advises you not to waste time and energy anymore. In this matter, you are just a pawn, and you should also be very clear about this."
Li Wujiu looked at Chen Wanan who seemed to have fallen asleep again and continued to say slowly.
"And whether your chess piece is dead or alive has no meaning to our Dongchang."
Chen Wanan couldn't help but feel a move in his heart when he heard this, and his eyelids couldn't help but tremble, but in the end he still didn't open his eyes.
He still couldn't believe the East Factory's guarantee, not to mention that it was just a small guarantee.
"It seems like a miracle that you can still live until now. If you have a little desperation in your heart before, you will not continue to live at this time, so I don't believe you will commit suicide."
Looking at Chen Wan'an who continued to pretend to be garlic, Li Wujiu smiled contemptuously and continued in a thick voice.
"Since you don't have the courage to commit suicide, I advise you to speak earlier. Otherwise, you should have heard of the methods of Dongchang for a long time."
Li Wujiu paused at this point, turned around and tried to leave.
"You can do it yourself."
"Can you really guarantee that the villain can still survive after the matter is settled?"
Chen Wanan, who noticed that Li Wujiu turned around and was about to leave, finally opened his eyes.
"If the stubborn goes back on his word, or the boss of the stubborn is unwilling to let the villain go, then the villain isn't that..."
"In today's situation, do you still think you have the right to choose?"
Li Wujiu interrupted him without hesitation and asked back with a sneering look on his face.
Faced with the problem of Li Wujiu's direct hitting his soul, Chen Wanan was silent.
Chapter completed!
