Ji Qing pointed to the place where he had landed before and said, "Over there, I will take you there!"

After the two arrived at the place, Zuo Liangyu patted Ji Qing on the shoulder twice.

"You don't have to follow them in, just stand guard outside!"

Ji Qing didn't dare to have any opinion. He immediately and carefully closed the gate for Zuo Liangyu, then stood by the wall with his head down, waiting.

Then, a strange sound was heard from inside.

"Nani?"

"Yamete, Yamete..."

"Ah...Combes must cry, Masaenga..." (Please spare me)

The Japanese woman sounded like she was crying and laughing at the same time, and her voice was trembling violently.

Immediately afterwards, Zuo Liangyu's angry curses were heard from inside, still asking the same questions that Ji Qing had asked before the interrogation.

But........

After a stick of incense, the courtyard gate suddenly opened, and Zuo Liangyu said to Ji Qing somewhat embarrassedly.

"Go, find me an interpreter!"

"This woman is talking nonsense, I don't understand a word she says!"

Ji Qing: ????

I don't understand why you kept interrogating me in there for so long?

He lowered his head slightly and glanced subconsciously at Zuo Liangyu's lower body.

"How dare you! In your eyes, am I such a loser?"

Upon seeing this, Zuo Liangyu hit him with a powerful punch.

Ji Qing suddenly felt his head buzzing, and he quickly argued back, feeling very aggrieved.

"Sir, I didn't say anything......"

Facing Zuo Liangyu's right hand raised again, he quickly kicked up his heels and ran away.

"Please wait a moment, my lord. I will go find the interpreter!"

Soon he pulled Park Guk-chang over and pushed him into the yard.

The strange cry of the female ninja was heard again, which stunned Ji Qing and made him even more curious about what method Zuo Liangyu used.

But this time the screaming only lasted for a cup of tea, and then the sound inside stopped.

However, the female ninja's voice had become extremely hoarse, as if someone had poured a handful of sand into it.

As for whether it is sand or something else...

Not important anymore!

The courtyard door creaked open, and Zuo Liangyu walked out carrying the female ninja, while Park Guochang followed behind with a confused look on his face.

This scene made Ji Qing even more confused.

Could it be that I was wrong?

While he was wondering, he saw Zuo Liangyu and Pu Guochang had already walked far away, so he hurriedly jogged after them.

Well, I'll find a chance to ask that Park guy and I'll know.

Back at the dock, Zuo Liangyu threw the female ninja to the ground and reported to Wang Zhichen.

"My lord, they guessed correctly. This bitch is really a ninja sent by the Tsushima clan."

"Their mission is to live here as prostitutes and cause trouble when the opportunity presents itself."

"Those fishermen who were lost on the Fuzhou boats have been sunk to the bottom of the sea by them."

"Oh, yes, there are six of these Japanese who are her accomplices, and there are more than twenty others, hiding in Changshou Mountain, fifty miles east of the south bank!"

Wang Zhichen's face was as gloomy as water. He pointed at the salted fish and asked, "Did they do anything to the dried fish?"

"Indeed, it is, but it's not a big problem." Zuo Liangyu smiled and took out a small cloth bag from his belt and handed it over.

"Look, sir. They stuffed this thing into the fish's belly under the cover of night."

Wang Zhichen did not reach out to take the cloth bag, but just frowned and asked.

"what is this?"

Upon seeing this, Zuo Liangyu opened the bag and poured out a small handful of light yellow powder from it.

Then he did something that surprised everyone.

He actually put all the powder into his mouth!

"It is only some citron powder, sir."

"This thing is not poisonous at all. It will only cause poisoning if eaten with fish heads."

"And it has to be a fish from the sea."

"The most important thing is that the little amount they put in has no effect at all. At most, it just adds some spice to the victims."

"People in Shanxi and Shaanxi like sour food, so this just suits their appetite!"

When these words were spoken, everyone present who could understand them was stunned.

Then, they all looked at the Japanese woman on the ground as if she were a clown.

Going to all that trouble just to stuff some seasoning into the fish's belly?

Chapter 361 There is a nunnery on the mountain

Wang Zhichen looked at Ji Qing with a gloomy expression.

"How many ships do we have here?"

Ji Qing quickly replied: "Your Excellency, there are six Fujian ships, twelve Guangdong ships, and one hundred and ten horse ships!"

"There are 317 Haicang ships and 55 shuttle boats!"

The size of the Guangchuan and the Fuchuan is similar, about 52 zhang 15 chi (6 meters) long, zhang ( meters) wide, zhang ( meters) high, and three stories high.

The horse boat was 111 zhang (45 meters) long, zhang ( meters) wide, single-decker, and had eight masts. It was a ship specially used to transport horses or cargo.

The Haicang ship was 25 meters long and 6 meters wide.

The shuttle boat is 15 feet (4.5 meters) long and 5 feet (1.6 meters) wide.

After hearing Ji Qing's answer, Wang Zhichen immediately gave the order.

"Everyone, head to Changshou Mountain immediately!"

"It doesn't matter whether they put seasoning or poison in the salted fish, anyone who dares to take a hand from the relief supplies will be killed without mercy!"

"As ordered!"

Zuo Liangyu and Mao Wenlong bowed at the same time.

They came from Liaodong, and brought with them all cavalry, with each man riding two horses.

Nanpu and Changshou Mountain are separated by a large river, but the ships in the port are enough to easily take them to the other side.

Li Jong stood aside, watching the Ming army busy crossing the river, feeling helpless like an outsider.

It’s not that he didn’t want to help, but Wang Zhichen simply looked down on the old, weak and disabled soldiers under his command.

In order to prevent the Japanese spies in Changshou Mountain from hearing the news, after crossing the river, the Liaodong Army rushed all the way to their destination without stopping.

Changshou Mountain is not big, and it is an isolated mountain with a peak only about two hundred feet high.

When we arrived at the place, it was already getting dark.

Although Wang Zhichen brought two thousand people, searching the mountain was a huge project.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, he looked up at the mountain for a moment, then said to Zuo Liangyu and Mao Wenlong.

"Pass on this command from the commander-in-chief!"

"Set the mountain on fire!"

Zuo Liangyu and Mao Wenlong were not easy to deal with. After hearing this, they passed the order down without any hesitation.

Afterwards, hundreds of people holding torches and riding war horses circled along the foot of the mountain to both sides.

Every few dozen feet, they would light up some grass and trees, and then rush to the next one.

Park Guochang, who just followed and led the way, twitched his mouth a few times.

"Generals, isn't it a bit inappropriate to do this?"

Wang Zhichen glared at him unkindly: "Why, there are civilians on the mountain?"

Being stared at by him, Park Guochang lowered his head and said timidly, "That's not the case."

Wang Zhichen shouted coldly: "Since there are no common people, what's wrong with that?"

Park Guk-chang was frightened and quickly explained: "To answer the general's question, there is a nunnery on this mountain..."

"Fuck, why didn't you say so earlier!"

Upon hearing this, Zuo Liangyu immediately jumped onto his horse, pulled him up from the ground and threw him in front of him.

"Show me the way! Take me to save people!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he squeezed the horse's belly hard. The warhorse felt the pain and immediately ran towards the path up the mountain under his control.

Looking at his back, Mao Wenlong curled his lips in disdain.

"This grandson! When will he change his bad habit of lusting after women?"

"Look, Governor. When he heard about the nun, he ran faster than a rabbit!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Zhichen looked at him and smiled playfully.

"General Mao is still as good as ever. He must be over fifty this year, right?"

"I heard that you are also partying every night on Pi Island?"

Mao Wenlong swallowed and coughed twice in embarrassment.

"What are you saying, Governor? Those of mine are all legitimate concubines!"

"There is still a difference between this beast and me..."

The position of general had no fixed rank in the Ming Dynasty, and there was not even a specific number of troops under his command.

If we quote a saying from later generations, we can probably say this.

Zhuangshan is not terrible, whoever is ugly is embarrassed.

So, although they were both generals, Zuo Liangyu was the uglier one compared to Mao Wenlong.

After all, Mao Wenlong also had the title of second-rank General Zhaolie and received a salary of the second rank.

However, Zuo Liangyu still received the salary of the Liaodong Cheyouyingdusi, which was a fourth-rank official position.

There is a gap of four levels between the two, so there is nothing wrong with Mao Wenlong making fun of him.

While the two were talking, the flames ignited at the foot of the mountain began to gradually spread up the mountain with the night breeze.

After a cup of tea, the fire grew bigger and bigger, but Zuo Liangyu did not come back.

Mao Wenlong couldn't help but start muttering again.

"That animal, could it be that it was burned to death on top?"

But just as he finished speaking, he saw Geng Zhongming pointing at the mountain path and shouting.

"My Lords, look over there!"

Mao Wenlong and Wang Zhichen immediately looked in the direction of his finger, and saw a group of nuns in disheveled clothes running towards them along the mountain path.

Behind them was Zuo Liangyu riding a horse.

Although the mountain path is not wide, this is the only place on the entire mountain that has not been ignited.

"Stop them quickly!"
