1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 1066 Submission
As a commander, the most frightening thing is not to make a wrong move in a match with the enemy, but to find that he has no moves to make, and there is no chance to make a mistake. Liao Xun sadly found that he was is in such a situation.All the subordinates brought out this time are already in prison, and now there is no way to summon reinforcements from Hangzhou, let alone prevent the opponent from attacking his family members. Liao Xun tried his best to keep his emotions calm, thinking in his mind Countermeasures.

Gong Shiqi was rich in experience, seeing Liao Xun's complexion changed, he knew that his move had hit the opponent's weakness, so he continued to strike while the iron was hot: "Master Liao, the matter is not without room for reversal, everything is in your mind !"

Liao Xun didn't make a sound. Although he knew that his opponent dared to put these things on the surface, he was probably already confident, but he still had some luck in his heart. After all, there would be a curfew in the city, and the Haihan people It is probably not that easy to attack one's own mansion.As long as it can be delayed until dawn, it will be even more difficult to do it in broad daylight.And if he disappears with a group of people for a day or two, the people in the Jinyiwei Yamen will definitely notice that something is wrong, and then someone may think of Cheng Fengxing.

Seeing that he was silent, Gong Shiqi could roughly guess his thoughts, shook his head and said, "Lord Liao, don't take chances with the current situation. Since I'm here to tell you the plan, then Naturally, someone is already doing it. When you were unconscious just now, I ordered someone to take your badge and send it to the city. At that time, someone will pretend to be a royal guard and report to your house. Presumably your family members After seeing this badge, you will definitely obey us. If you hesitate, you will not only harm yourself, but also your family!"

Liao Xun finally responded: "It's not as bad as your family. If you want to seek revenge, come to me!"

"Courage is commendable, but it is indeed stupid enough." Gong Shiqi said, "If I wanted to seek revenge, I would have killed you with a single blow just now. Why wait until now? I saved your life because I think you are still old enough." However, if you want to die, I can also help you, just to attack your political views, I can only ruin your reputation, and it doesn’t matter if you are ruined, your family will suffer.”

Liao Xun felt a chill running down his spine when he heard this. Gong Shiqi didn't need to explain how to ruin a person's reputation.And the frightening thing is that when the opponent does this, he has already died hard, and it will be difficult to clear up things that have not been proved.

This reminded him of Ma Yue, the commander of the Haining Guard who died at sea inexplicably last year. He obviously went for the merchant ships of the Haihan people, but there were various rumors after his death that Ma Yue had colluded with Japanese pirates beforehand because of the distribution of spoils. Uneven had a dispute and was killed by Japanese pirates in the fire.Although relying on Yu Pingfeng to operate from it later, the Zhejiang capital still forcibly counted Ma Yue as a sacrifice for the country, and reported this statement to the Ministry of War to ask for credit for him, but Ma Yue's reputation was still rotten after all, because there was no one. It can explain why a dignified commander went to sea in disguise, and finally died on a Japanese pirate ship.

Although he didn't have any definite evidence, Liao Xun was sure that this matter must have something to do with the Haihan people. Since then, he has been a little more careful about this daring opponent, but what he didn't expect was that such a situation would eventually appear in his own hands. in front of you.He was suddenly curious about what happened to Ma Yue back then, and asked Gong Shiqi: "Last year, the commander of the Haining Guard Ma Yue had an accident in Hangzhou Bay, but you did it?"

Gong Shiqidao: "Before Ma Yue set off, I went to Jiaxing Mansion, but I was not the one who did it at sea. After all, I don't have that much energy to mobilize warships to carry out missions."

Although Gong Shiqi didn't admit it directly, in fact, he had already spoken very bluntly.Liao Xun sighed: "You guys are so courageous! My Ming commander dares to move!"

Gong Shiqi said: "If I don't move him, he will move me. If Ma Yue didn't intend to come against us, how could we intercept him at sea? Don't you have certain responsibilities for encouraging him to send troops? Is it? His result is ultimately his own fault, but we can't blame us for being too harsh. Mr. Liao, if you have an accident outside Hangzhou, we will not give you any chance to clean up."

Liao Xun simply closed his eyes and ignored Gong Shiqi.He knew that if he continued to talk to the other party, the defense line in his heart would be defeated bit by bit by the other party, but under the current situation, he did not intend to give up his position.As a party who has no way to fight back, the only way he can do now is to procrastinate, maybe after dawn, there may be some unexpected turnaround.

Seeing this, Gong Shiqi said, "Master Liao, since you think things will change, I'll wait and see with you. I just want to remind you that the further you get to the back, the less room there is for you to negotiate conditions." , you are not willing to cooperate with us now, you are just wasting your chance."

Liao Xun didn't even hum this time, and just turned a deaf ear to Gong Shiqi's persuasion.Gong Shiqi was not angry at all, he left two people in the room to watch Liao Xun, and then left with the others.Wan Fa also witnessed the confrontation process between the two in the next room, and seeing the conversation ended, he hurried out to meet Gong Shiqi.

"Boss, why are you so polite to this Liao?" Wan Fa didn't quite understand Gong Shiqi's attitude, so he took the initiative to ask when he met him: "Since he refuses to cooperate, why not punish him? This guy is only superficially tough, maybe he will soften immediately after being sentenced."

Gong Shiqi explained: "He is still refusing to surrender because he is lucky now. After dawn, there will be a way to make him change his mind. I will use him to carry out the next plan. It will be of great use to save his life." Wanfa, what do you think of my arrangement?"

Wan Fa hastily bowed and replied: "I don't dare, it's just that I was confused just now and couldn't vomit."

"It's okay, it's a good thing to speak up if you have doubts. Although you only work part-time in the security department, the security department doesn't treat you as an outsider." Gong Shiqi said with a smile: "You have performed well this time. After the operation is over, I will Credit for you."

"Thank you boss for promoting!" Wan Fa hastily bowed again to thank him.He knew that Gong Shiqi's promise was different from Liao Xun's empty promise, and the chances of it being fulfilled were much higher.He also knew that after this operation, he would probably be transferred from Hangzhou and start over in another place. It would be the best if he could be rewarded by his superiors for meritorious deeds.

Gong Shiqi went to the yard and looked at the Jinyiwei who had been knocked down by the drug, and asked his subordinates to give them another dose to ensure that they would continue to sleep.Gong Shiqi didn't care about the lives of these people, but he didn't want to deal with them in a place where he still needed to stay for a day or two. Although Chengfenghang might be abandoned, there was no need to destroy the environment here.The subordinates are already transporting these people to the river in batches in carts, where there is a reinforcement ship that has just arrived, responsible for loading the enemy personnel captured in this operation.

After checking the status of each post in the store, Gong Shiqi calmed down and went to sleep for a while.The current operation is progressing very smoothly, and the next step is to wait for the results of the operation in the city.

Gong Shiqi only slept for about two hours, and Wan Fa came to wake him up. It will be time to open the city gate after a while, and he must be in charge of today's affairs.

Gong Shiqi sat up and yawned, "Have all Liao Xun's men gone?"

Wan Fa hadn't slept all night, and his eyes were red from the heat at this time, but he was in good spirits. Hearing the words, he replied: "All have been sent to the ship."

"Is Liao Xun okay?"

"The little one went to see it just now, and he has been closing his eyes to rest his mind, as if sleeping."

"That's good." Gong Shiqi got up and got out of bed, and said to Wan Fa: "Let the kitchen get some food first, everyone will probably be hungry after doing this all night."

After a while, Gong Shiqi, who had finished washing, appeared in front of Liao Xun again: "Good morning, Mr. Liao! How did you rest well tonight?"

Liao Xun's mouth was dry at this time, and his hands and feet trapped on the chair had already become numb to the point of losing consciousness. There was no need to talk about rest, so he just gave Gong Shiqi a hard look, and didn't feel anything. Answer out loud.

Gong Shiqi didn't feel annoyed, he smiled and ordered, "Come here, untie Master Liao, bring breakfast, and let Master Liao eat something."

Of course, Gong Shiqi was not really careless enough to allow Liao Xun to move freely. Before he was untied, someone locked him with shackles and handcuffs connected by iron chains. The range of motion is extremely small, and it is difficult to use force.Then someone brought a bowl of noodles, although it was just plain noodles, but to Liao Xun who had been hungry all night, it was no different from a delicious delicacy.He didn't say anything at the moment, he grabbed his chopsticks and started eating.

"Aren't you afraid we'll poison your face?" Gong Shiqi asked with a smile.

"If you want to kill me, why bother?" Liao Xun replied, planing the remaining noodles and even drinking the soup.

Liao Xun put the empty bowl on the table and said, "Forget it, you'll be full after eating, at least you won't be a starving ghost. Gong, what else do you plan to do, draw the line!"

Gong Shiqi said, "You still don't want to surrender?"

"Why did I have to step down!" Liao Xun's tone was still firm, and it seemed that the cooling-off period of these few hours did not make him change his mind.

However, Gong Shishi had the chance to win, so he didn't feel depressed because of his attitude. He just smiled and said: "Then wait for a while, the city gate will be opened soon."

Liao Xun knew that Gong Shiqi was targeting his family, but he couldn't be too excited about it right now. The more he showed his emotions, the more likely the other party would threaten him with his family as a condition.Instead, pretend to be calmer, which may slightly affect the other party's judgment.It's just that his response is somewhat futile under the current situation, because news that can be regarded as bad news for him soon came.

"Master Qiao has already left the city and will be there soon." After his subordinates came to report the news, Gong Shiqi felt relieved.If Gao Qiaonan's actions in the city do not go well, then he may have to end all actions related to Chengfengxing ahead of schedule.He was worried that Gao Qiaonan would be delayed after leaving the city, so he specially arranged for people to pick him up outside the city gate.

Soon Gao Qiaonan appeared in Chengfeng's trip, and Liao Xun's family also appeared with him.Yesterday, after Gong Shiqi knocked down Liao Xun here, he took his identity badge and sent it to the city, and handed it to Gao Qiaonan.Afterwards, Gao Qiaonan took the people to Liao's house in the north of the city swaggeringly at midnight. Although he also encountered a police team patrolling the city on the way, he showed Liao Xun's waist card and immediately went unimpeded.

Using the same method, Gao Qiaonan easily tricked the gate of Liao's house, and after a group of people entered, they immediately controlled the people in the house.Although Liao's house also had martial arts guards, they were brought down by Gao Qiaonan's people before they could figure out what happened.The action team detained all the idlers and others together, and then waited until dawn, leaving some people to take care of the prisoners. Gao Qiaonan personally led the team and escorted Liao Xun's wives, concubines and children out of the city by car.The whole process didn't cost a single soldier, and didn't make any mistakes, and the person was successfully taken out of the city.

When Liao Xun saw the timid family members appearing in Chengfenghang's yard, he also heaved a long sigh, knowing that his last hope was gone.All of this happened as Gong Shiqi said last night, without even a single accident, and completely defeated his last line of psychological defense.

"If I still don't submit to you, what will you do?" Liao Xun asked with a wry smile.

Gong Shiqi replied seriously: "Master Liao, if you make this choice, you are forcing me to hurt your family. I am very unwilling to do this kind of thing, but in order to complete the task, I have to do it." .To be honest, if we switched positions, you would have already got it around my family's neck, right?"

Liao Xun was not a soft-hearted character in the first place, but he grinned and said, "I don't have such patience to wait until dawn! You were punished last night!"

"Unfortunately, we strike faster." Gong Shiqi didn't care about the opponent's tongue, and returned to the main topic: "Master Liao, I will ask you for the last time now, whether you choose to surrender and cooperate, and answer me after thinking clearly, because I only ask once, if the answer doesn't satisfy me, then neither you nor your family can leave Chengfenghang alive."

Liao Xun was silent for a long time, and finally said: "Tell me, how do you want me to cooperate?"
