A knife in love

Chapter 2697
After everyone finished eating, several Jin Yiwei took away the dishes and brought hot water for Xu Yingyang and others.At this moment, only the sound of footsteps could be heard, but it was Qi Jiu, Murong Danyan, and Wang Xiaoyu who walked in.Li Qiufeng got up to meet him, seeing that Qi Jiu's expression was not as wilted as before, he was relieved.

Everyone greeted a few words, Xu Yingyang smiled and said: "Since the sages have arrived, and the master of Jinzhai has already made plans, as the saying goes, everything is ready, only the east wind is owed, we will wait here for the Japanese pirates to attack. After passing through the Eastern Liao During the battle in the county seat, I knew that the Japanese pirates had been overestimated before, and that the Japanese generals must be masters of military strategy. In fact, these barbarians don't know the art of war at all, they only know how to attack hard, and they don't know how to use troops. As long as Let's deal with it carefully, although we dare not say that we can defeat the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop, but it is not difficult to hold them back for a few days."

Both Li Qiufeng and Qi Jiu had fought against the Japanese pirates before, and they knew that the Japanese pirates were cunning and good at fighting, and they were many times more powerful than the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty.In the first battle of Dongliao County, the Japanese pirates broke through four city gates one after another without spending too much effort.Although Qi Jiu tried his best to deal with the pirates in Beicheng, he was still defeated in the end.Xu Yingyang thought that the Japanese pirates were stupid and nothing to worry about. Isn't it a big joke to slip the world?
Qi Jiu took a sneak peek and saw that Xu Yingyang was discussing the military situation with Jin Yulou and several Jinyiwei leaders. He thought to himself, although this Master Xu Yingyang is very skilled in martial arts and quite wise, but after all, he has never led officers and soldiers to fight It is a big mistake to regard the danger of soldiers and the disaster of war as an ordinary fight in the martial arts world.When the Japanese pirates attacked Dongliao County, they really didn't use any tricks, but based on this, they thought the Japanese pirates were stupid, which was to think too lowly of the Japanese pirates.The Japanese pirates besieged Dongliao County with a heavy army, almost ten times that of the defenders. They only needed to attack by force, and they didn't need to use any tricks at all.When they attack the royal residence, I'm afraid they will swarm up, relying on the large number of people, they will attack the royal residence in one go.Master Xu Yingyang doesn't know the art of war, if he orders us to defend against the enemy indiscriminately, he will definitely cause big trouble.Fortunately, Jin Yulou knows how to attack and fight, and with his assistance, he will not be taken advantage of by Japanese pirates.

While Qi Jiu was thinking, he suddenly heard hurried footsteps outside the door.Most of the people in the room are highly skilled in martial arts, and when they heard the sound of footsteps, their hearts trembled.After a while, the footsteps stopped outside the door, only to hear someone shouting: "Humble job Zhang Cai, please see Mr. Xu."

Xu Yingyang said in a deep voice, "Brother Zhang, please come in and talk."

As soon as he finished speaking, a solid man walked into the room and bowed to Xu Yingyang.Xu Yingyang raised his right hand falsely, and said in his mouth: "Brother Zhang has worked hard. You came back in a hurry, is there something different about the Japanese pirates?"

Zhang Cai's face was flushed red, he was panting heavily, and said in his mouth: "Report to Mr. Xu, a large group of Japanese pirates have left the north gate of Dongliao County and are heading straight for Wangjiazhuang. The vanguard has already left Zhuangzi. But two miles."

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words.Xu Yingyang's complexion changed, and he turned to Jin Yulou and said, "Master Jinzhai, didn't you say that you have set up eyeliners near all the gates of Dongliao County, and that once the Japanese soldiers leave the city, they will send out a signal?" Why didn’t the Japanese pirates come back to report the military situation when the Japanese pirates were about to invade Zhuangzi, or did the Jinyiwei sent by the official realize that the situation was not good and sent the general back?!”

When Jin Yulou saw Xu Yingyang's face was livid and his eyes were fierce when he spoke, it was obvious that he was extremely annoyed, and he couldn't help feeling uneasy.Before that, he sent dozens of spies to inquire about news outside Lizhuang of Wangjiazhuang and near the four gates of Dongliao County, and ordered them to send a signal immediately if they found that the Japanese pirates had left the city.These spies were personally selected by Jin Yulou from one or two thousand green forest thieves, and all of them were shrewd and capable.Moreover, Jinyulou also promised a lot of money, which is enough to make these green forest thieves tempted, and it is expected that they will not escape privately.Jin Yulou originally thought that his plan was very proper and there would never be any loopholes, but he didn't expect that in the end, there was a mistake in the game, and the Japanese soldiers and horses were killed near Wangjiazhuang, and he didn't know anything about it.If Xu Yingyang hadn't kept an eye out and sent Jin Yiwei to patrol inside and outside the village, he might still be kept in the dark without knowing that the Japanese pirates entered Wang's village.

Thinking of this, cold sweat dripped down Jin Yulou's forehead, he wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.Xu Yingyang stared at Jin Zhenglou coldly with dark eyes, his right hand was already holding the hilt of the sword.The leaders of Jinyiwei have followed Xu Yingyang for many years, they have never seen him lose his composure, and they feel a little uneasy.A leader of Jinyiwei was very clever, thinking that the inside and outside of the house are guarded by green forest thieves, and these green forest thieves obey Jinyulou. If Xu Yingyang kills Jinyulou in a fit of anger, no one will suppress them The green forest thieves, they have to disperse.Moreover, these green forest thieves vary from good to bad, and many of them are sinister and cunning.If there is no leader of Jinyulou, they might help the pirates deal with Jinyiwei.After a great battle in Dongliao County, there were only 60 Jinyiwei who followed Xu Yingyang to Liaodong.Relying on these Jinyiwei alone to deal with thousands of Japanese pirates is tantamount to nonsense.So right now, not only can't kill Jinyulou, but he has to win over this person so that he can work for the Jinyiwei and lead the green forest thieves to fight the Japanese pirates to the death.It's not too late to think of a way to kill Jin Yulou after the matter here is settled.

Thinking of this, the leader of Jinyiwei respectfully said to Xu Yingyang: "The incident happened in a hurry, and it is human nature for the master of Jinzhai to make mistakes occasionally. Don't be angry, sir. The most important thing right now is to issue an order immediately. Resist the pirates."

What kind of person Xu Yingyang is, he doesn't need to be reminded by the head of Jinyiwei, he naturally knows that he still has to rely heavily on the Jinyu Tower at the moment.It's just that when I first heard that the Japanese pirates had come to Wangjiazhuang, I was so horrified that I was furious, and even wanted to kill Jinyulou.At this time, he wanted to cover up his killing intent just now, but just now he showed his fierce face, Li Qiufeng, Qi Jiu and others have seen it with their own eyes, Jin Yulou looks rough, but is actually extremely smart, otherwise he would not be able to lead Heifengzhai across Liaodong ten The rest of the year will not fall.These people must have seen that they wanted to kill Jin Yulou, if they couldn't conceal it cleverly, they would definitely turn against them.But for a while, he couldn't think of any way to comfort Jin Yulou and others, and he was quite anxious.

At this moment, the Jin Yiwei who reported the military situation to Xu Yingyang cupped his hands and said: "Master Xu, the Jinzhai Lord is not to blame for this matter. The Jinzhai Lord has indeed sent many spies to the four cities near Wangjiazhuang and Dongliao County. It's just that the Japanese pirates are cunning, and when they realized that the situation outside the city was different, they secretly sent many masters out of Dongliao County without anyone noticing, and captured or killed the spies sent by the master of Jinzhai. Hurry up, I'm afraid it will fall into the hands of Japanese pirates."

After Xu Yingyang heard what the Jinyiwei had said, it was exactly what he wanted, and he hurriedly turned his head and said to Jin Yulou: "It turns out that this is the case. I wrongly blamed Jinzhaizhu. Please don't be offended by Jinzhaizhu."
