Chapter 62(1/2)
As dark as ink.
This is the best description of Peng Zhenlei's face at this time.
Peng Zhenlei, who was both excited and nervous before, felt that he could catch Mu Yixing, had obviously only one reason for his bad face.
He finally found out that he had been cheated.
No, even the word "deception" is not enough to describe him. He was completely fooled and played with by Mu Yixing as a fool.
As a senior official who has worked in the Six Gate for many years, he is a fifth-rank captain. After leading the disciples of the Changbai Sword Sect and the Dongchang men into the empty camp, how could he have guessed that everything he had experienced before was just a plan set up by Mu Yi who lured him into the bait.
Moreover, his eyes, which were only concerned about being blocked by Mu Yixing's credit at that time, had no cover now, and finally saw the flaws left by the spies under Mu Yixing during the operation like Bai Shier.
Of course, this also made his face look even more ugly.
However, compared to these, what really makes Peng Zhenlei's headache now is how to appease the East Factory's men.
In order to convince several of the Dongchang's stalls, he made some exaggerated guarantees.
At the moment, the original guarantee is still in my ears, but this kind of scene appears in front of me. How can those Dongchang employees who were happy before, who were even happy and even lost their faces, gritted their teeth and accepted Peng Zhenlei, the outsider, be satisfied?
Fortunately, they didn't know that the five subordinates who were left behind in the dark prison of Quanzhou Prefecture City had all been killed, and the only creditor Fang Ritu was also robbed, otherwise they would have swallowed Peng Zhenlei alive now.
Compared with the top players of the East Factory, Zhang Sijin and others are from the Changbai Sword Sect, which has a low status and can even be regarded as the disciples of the Six Sects, which are no longer so important.
"This is not the time to hold me accountable."
But Peng Zhenlei was not panicked. Although he had a headache about how to appease the Dongchang men, he had already left the blockade in front of him, but he knew in his heart that there was something more important to worry about at this time.
"Mu Yixing deliberately set up this situation to deceive me and pull you over. You should be able to guess their purpose, right?"
After trying his best to suppress the questioning of several Dongchang Station's station leaders, he asked this question that made him feel a little numb.
"hiss!"
A burst of air sucking sounded one after another.
Of course, it is not a fool who can become the head of the East Factory. Before, it was just because of a moment of anger, so he only wanted to ask Peng Zhenlei for an explanation. Now, after hearing Peng Zhenlei's questioning, he immediately thought of that terrible result.
However, Zhang Sijin and other people from the Changbai Sword Sect came to Quanzhou Prefecture not long ago and didn't know about the treasures, so they were still a little confused for a while. Several of the East Factory leaders who were angry just now asked Peng Zhenlei why they suddenly looked like they saw a ghost and were sucking in a crazy way.
However, the matter was urgent, and both Peng Zhenlei and the Dongchang factory's stall owners were too lazy to waste time explaining to them.
"Send a message to Quanzhou Prefecture City quickly."
"It's definitely too late to go."
"That's right, since Mu Yixing set up such a game, he will definitely be scrambling time. I'm afraid he should make some moves tonight. Even if we can fly, we won't have time to send the news back."
"Do your best and leave your fate. If you have good luck, you may be able to catch up."
"Please use a quick horse that speeds up to six hundred miles."
"Six hundred miles? Is this a little too..."
"As long as the news can be transmitted back in time, what can the 800-mile rush be considered as an 800-mile rush?"
"Well, that's right. Even if the masters and the emperor know, they will definitely not blame us."
...
Listening to the fast but not fierce quarrel between Peng Zhenlei and several Dongchang Stations and soon reached a consensus, Zhang Sijin and others became even more confused. The only thing they could understand was one thing.
This time, the enemy designed Peng Zhenlei to attack Quanzhou Prefecture City.
‘I actually attacked the capital of a state prefecture, and would I be crazy to get those guys?’
At this moment, even Zhang Sijin and others who had lived outside the pass who had been very weak in government power for a long time could not help but have a question that was somewhat unbelievable to them.
...
Mu Yixing is naturally not crazy.
Although he designed all this, he had not yet been so crazy that he relied on his own to attack a mansion with only forty or fifty people with a city wall several feet high, and it was on the night when the city gates were closed.
But he still dared to attack the Jinyiwei on Santai Mountain outside the city. If he really wanted to scare him away just by relying on the title of Jinyiwei, he would be too underestimated.
As a local snake who has been in Quanzhou Prefecture for more than ten years and has kept her nest on Santai Mountain for several years, and has a very good understanding of all the surrounding terrain, Mu Yixing is very confident that he can successfully attack the Jinyiwei without any defense.
Although he knew in his heart that regardless of success or not, if he committed such a major case, he would probably become a major criminal in the entire court in the future. In this life, he would never regret it.
As long as he can really retake the treasure worth more than 100,000 taels, he believes that Huang Long will arrange everything properly. After so many years under Huang Long's command, he knows exactly how much energy Huang Long has.
...
"Star Lord, the news of Feng Feng has arrived."
Just when Mu Yixing was still secretly cheering up this seemingly bold action and convinced him, his subordinates came to report it.
"How about it?"
Mu Yixing threw the last trace of worry out of his mind and asked quickly.
"Everything is normal, there is no abnormality."
The subordinates immediately returned it, but after saying the good news, the expression on his face became a little worried.
"However, according to the news from Feng, the people of the Jinyiwei did not seem to have any movement and remained there..."
"I had already expected this."
But before he could finish speaking, Mu Yixing waved his hand and interrupted his concern.
"From the beginning, I had no intention of mobilizing those abominable Jinyiwei to leave. It was more than 100,000 taels of silver. Before confirming that there was no accident, no one dared to be careless."
Mu Yixing stood up, showing strong confidence on his face.
"What I want is always just to send people who may come to support the East Factory and Six Gates of Jinyiwei. Since Yan Feng is now sure that these guys have left, we can do it with confidence."
"Yes, my subordinates understand."
The subordinate was immediately infected by his confidence, nodded with conscience, and the worries on his face disappeared.
"Notify everyone, be prepared, and strike on time before dawn."
"yes!"
...
On Mount Santai, Zheng Yixiang and his many Jinyiwei were not asleep as Mu Yixing had expected. On the contrary, each of their eyes was as bright as the stars in the sky.
Although he was "threatened" by Bai Shier before, he finally took some reluctance to guard against it, when he really got the information that Mu Yixing really led a large number of people to arrive, Zheng Yixiang naturally regarded it as his own credit.
Naturally, he was also ready to capture Mu Yixing alive and completely take this credit.
Compared with the batch of treasures worth more than 100,000 taels of silver he guarded at this time, catching Mu Yixing was the reason why he came to Quanzhou Prefecture City this time. He still knew this in his mind.
Compared with Peng Zhenlei who was full of confidence, Bai Shier, who was also waiting for that lively moment to come, was far less confident than Zheng Yixiang.
The previous experience made him dare not underestimate the ability of Mu Yixing and his group. Although Zheng Yixiang and other Jinyiwei were waiting for their work and had such a powerful and strong bow, they were not afraid of ten thousand, but they were afraid of it. Even if they were about to deal with your Mu Yixing's sneak attack, he still kept living the entire response plan in his mind over and over again, wanting to see which one could be improved and which one might have problems.
...
Time passed by minute by minute. When the moon eyes hanging above our heads were about to fall with time, and everything around was still silent, even Bai Shier couldn't help but wonder.
He was not worried that the information of the spies of the Jinyiwei would be wrong. In such a matter, the spies of the Jinyiwei would not make mistakes, otherwise Zheng Yixiang would be able to tear them apart.
What he was worried about was whether Mu Yixing had already smelled the danger, so he had already decisively evacuated.
Judging from what Mu Yixing did before, this is not impossible.
After all, in Quanzhou Prefecture City, there must be Mu Yixing's eyeliner.
"Hundred Houses, they are here."
But soon, the Jinyiwei Captain who came to report the news to Zheng Yixiang dispelled all Bai Shier's worries.
"Okay, let all brothers know how to open the strings, prepare to respond to the enemy and listen to my signal."
Zheng Yixiang, who was more anxious than Bai Shier, was almost surprised to jump out of the chair after hearing the news and immediately ordered.
"yes."
The captain, who also knew that he had captured Mu Yixing's importance this time, immediately bowed and replied, taking the order and leaving, looking eager to try.
...
Walking on the familiar Santai Mountain Road, Mu Yixing, who was originally confident in this sneak attack, felt inexplicably becoming more and more vulnerable, as if a giant beast had opened its bloody mouth in front of him, waiting for him to come to him on his own initiative.
But he always couldn't think of something wrong, and could only comfort himself, because he was too nervous.
Knowing that as his subordinates who were exploring the way forward were about to touch the Taoist temple that had been burned by fire, a light suddenly flashed in his mind.
Smooth!
Yes, the journey was so smooth. Apart from the two careless Jinyiwei who were dealt with at the foot of the mountain, I never encountered any Jinyiwei again along the way, and there was not even a single secret whistle.
This is really abnormal. Even if the Jinyiwei is insufficient in strength and has a shortage of manpower in order to hold on day and night, it is impossible to not even set up a secret whistle.
Trap! Trap!
Two words suddenly appeared in his mind, making his steps heavier and heavier.
"Buzz~!"
