The First Great Ancestor of the Five Dynasties

Chapter 366

Ganquanfang, in a remote alley.

A team of more than ten people walked quietly and headed towards Zhou Ling's outer house.

Hu Guangyue led the way. He spent the whole night lying on the wall of Zhou Ling's outer house that day to get a clear idea of ​​the situation inside the house.

The team following Hu Guangyue looked a bit chaotic at first glance, like a group of theater actors with different clothes, different heights, fatness and thickness.

Some of these people were dressed like scholars in green shirts and gowns;

There are also some who wear silk blouses, round belly, and look as wealthy as businessmen.

All in all, this group of people had different appearances, and would be inconspicuous among the crowd. No one would associate them with a group of thieves who kill without blinking an eye.

They are nominally soldiers of the Yajun of the Huai Army in Suzhou Town, but in fact they are the third-class soldiers of the Fifth Capital of the Zangfeng Battalion.

There were 30 people who sneaked into Jiangning with Zhu Xiu on this trip, all of them were descendants of Huainan, and their families all moved to Suzhou for resettlement.

There are 30 people in groups of five, scattered and disorderly. Each group has a team leader who is responsible for daily communication. Each group usually lurks in different places in Jiangning.

Hu Guangyue is the general contact person, and only the team leader knows how to contact him.

The action order was issued by Hu Guangyue. Before that, they did not know the specific mission.

The fifth Zangfeng Battalion was the first armed force that Zhu Xiu started to build after he went to Suzhou. It adopted a brand-new institutional model, from personnel selection to training, to organizational division and treatment arrangements. It was all very different from the previous Zangfeng Battalion. .

More refined and rigorous, the organization operates more efficiently.

Hu Guangyue was temporarily appointed as the head of the fifth capital.

If these people can survive when they return to Suzhou, some of them may be promoted to second-class soldiers.

In Zhu Xiu's military system plan, every increase in the level of armored soldiers will be extremely attractive to ordinary children.

Soldiers from the Fifth Capital gathered from all directions in Jiangning City to Ganquanfang. When they saw Zhu Xiu, they just bowed their heads slightly and saluted silently. No one spoke, and they were as quiet as a ghost army.

Hu Guangyue counted the number of people, gestured and led them to Zhou Ling's outer house.

Zhu Xiu and Pan Mei followed slowly with two dolls.

Zhu Liang looked at the group of strange men walking in front of him in the narrow alley, his heart pounding with nervousness.

He was startled by the sudden appearance of these strangers.

In his eyes, all of these people looked serious and didn't speak. No matter how tall or short they were, they all had a somewhat ferocious look in their eyes.

Some of them were carrying long knives, some were holding daggers, everyone was carrying weapons, and no one was talking while walking in the alley, the scene was extremely strange.

Zhu Liang glanced at Zhu Xiu with fear and curiosity, feeling more and more mysterious that this young uncle who claimed to be a relative of his family was mysterious.

Zhu Xiu noticed the little guy's eyes and glanced at him. Zhu Liang was so frightened that he quickly lowered his head.

Zhu Xiu smiled and touched his head.

Zhu Liang raised his head and grinned silly.

"No matter what happens later, don't be afraid, don't make a sound, take good care of Da Ya and stay by my side." Zhu Xiu said with a smile.

Zhu Liang took Da Ya's hand and nodded vigorously.

Pan Mei said slowly: "When you asked that boy Zha Hui to go to Puji Temple, did you intend to let Lady Zhou go?"

Zhu Xiu said calmly: "We don't have enough manpower, so we have to let Cha Hui go. Since we can confirm that the Zhu family is imprisoned here, it doesn't matter whether Zhou Xian is in our hands or not. Whether he goes or stays, it doesn't matter." Pan Mei's eyes dropped. Turning around, hehe said: "I understand, you ask Zha Hui to send them to Puji Temple. No matter whether Mrs. Zhou escapes in the chaos or is captured by Zha Hui again, it is an acceptable result.

It's better to catch her back. It's always good to have a little beauty by your side.

It doesn’t matter if you run away, we all have to leave anyway, so it would be nice to show kindness and let the little beauty go home.”

Pan Mei winked, as if I had read through your mind again.

Zhu Xiu frowned and squinted at him: "Do you know what you were in your previous life?"

Pan Mei blinked, rubbed her beard and thought: "What is it?"

Zhu Xiu laughed and said, "You were a roundworm in my stomach in your previous life, and you accidentally fell into the latrine and drowned."

Pan Mei was stunned for a moment, eyes widening with anger.

Zhu Liang covered his mouth and chuckled.

"Anyway, your little thoughts have already been pinched to death by our old Pan!" Pan Mei hugged her and snorted unconvinced.

Zhu Xiu sneered and said: "So what? I've made the mistake of going up to the peak and committing crimes below. When you get back to Suzhou, get out of here and go to Nangukou to guard the dock!"

Pan Mei said angrily: "You are avenging a private revenge! I don't accept it!"

"It's just a matter of public vengeance, what do you think? If you say one more nonsense, I'll demote you to Nangu Town to work as a farm official!"

Pan Mei's eyes widened in shock, and she wanted to defend herself, but when she saw Zhu Xiu staring at him maliciously, she swallowed the words on her lips and snorted heavily to show her dissatisfaction. .

Pan Mei touched Zhu Liang's head and said in a weird voice: "Little Liang, your master and I have been demoted to the town by your uncle to farm. I'm afraid I won't be able to teach you Kung Fu~"

Zhu Liang blinked, looked at Pan Mei, then looked at Zhu Xiu, and said to Pan Mei seriously with a small face: "Master, please stop talking and don't make my uncle angry. I will help you say something nice in a few days. My uncle will be happy. Just let you come back.”

Pan Mei yelled angrily: "You brat has no conscience, and you won't help me scold your brother-in-law."

Zhu Liang scratched his head and said, "Everything my uncle said is right. I listen to him."

Pan Mei pointed at him and was filled with grief and indignation: "I want to expel you from the teacher's school. I don't have such a wretched apprentice like you!"

Zhu Liang said with a smile: "Master, you can look for me again, there is only one uncle."

Pan Mei was speechless and so angry that she couldn't help but lightly kicked Zhu Liang's butt twice.

Zhu Xiu touched his head and smiled and said: "There are many people in the world who are better in martial arts than Pan Dabeard. I know a few of them, your uncle. Let's choose another one to become our disciple."

"Hmm!" Zhu Liang nodded his head, making Pan Mei's teeth itch with anger.

"Once a teacher, always a father! This kid has entered my Pan family, don't even think about running away easily!"

Pan Mei shook her fist fiercely, looking threatening.

Zhu Xiu glanced at him with disdain and touched Zhu Liang's head: "Big Bearded Pan wants to be your master, what should I do?"

Zhu Liang said with a smile: "Master is still willing to admit that I am naturally the best! I will definitely learn from Master with all my heart!"

These words comforted Pan Mei Laohuai, who laughed loudly and rubbed Zhu Liang's head vigorously.

This clever boy is most likely Zhu Xiu's nephew. How could he let go of such a good opportunity to get closer to the Zhu family?
Putting this aside, Zhu Liang has good talent, is of the right age, and is smart and lovable. It would be a good thing to have him as his apprentice.
