Lord of the House

After entering June, the night at the estuary was unusually hot. At dusk, it was about to rain, but no raindrops fell. The air was unusually sticky, making people look forward to the storm coming soon.

Sun Wenwan stood on the steps and looked at the turret in the distance. The lights of the turret like the bright moon provided the estuary with light at night. The bamboo and wood in the West Garden of the Bamboo Hall were colorful, and the shadows fell on the dress, as if clear. Weeds on the bottom of the lake.

Two days passed peacefully. Yesterday, at dusk, a large number of floating corpses drifted into the sky. I thought that the fleet that Lin Fu personally supervised was attacked upstream. Later, I learned that Qiupu Prefecture had been raining for more than ten days, causing a flood. , drowned in the thousands.

Sun Wenwan thought that the fleet should enter the Yuxi River from the Yangtze River.

The courtyard door was pushed open by Squeak, and Sun Wenwan looked back and saw that it was her father and cousin Sun Wenbing who pushed the door and walked in.

"It should be tonight," Sun Wenwan said. "The Qu family should send someone to watch the fleet that Lin Fu is transporting to Dongyang. Once the fleet enters the Yuxi River, Lin Fu will not be able to fly back if something happens here. ."

"Why wasn't the fleet attacked? If the murder and redemption of silver robbery three months ago was really what Lin Fu did, Lin Fu was with the fleet at this time, and the Qu family wanted revenge and attacked the fleet. As soon as the tie dies, the river mouth will naturally disappear, and it will not be a threat to Quyang Town. Besides, the fleet at the Yuxi River mouth was attacked, and everything will be pushed to the Poyang Lake water bandits." Sun Wenbing said.

It is now certain that Lin Fu deliberately leads the snake out of the hole this time, but it is hard to say whether the Qu family will take it upon themselves.

At least it is easier and more convenient to organize an attack on the Yangtze River. After the chaos in Hongzepu, the water village forces in Poyang Lake are eager to move, and they may not dare to really raise their flags to rebel. Private armed fleets filled with supplies and cash will still be actively dispatched. .

Sun Jingxuan also tends to think that the Qu family is more likely to attack the fleet in the Yangtze River. Even if they attack the estuary, they will not be able to completely solve the threat that Lin Fu brings to the Qu family. The danger of things being revealed.

"Anyway, is it appropriate for us to quietly withdraw from the estuary like this?" Sun Wenwan asked hesitantly.

"What's wrong? You said that after being in the situation, what's wrong with this time?" Sun Jingxuan asked.

"Uncle Fu and others are still staying in the Hekou," Sun Wenwan said. "In case the Qu family sends someone to attack the Hekou, we really have to leave like this, and most of the marriage between Wen Pei and Lin Jingzhong will be ruined..."

"We can't get involved in this kind of thing," Sun Jingxuan sighed, "No one knows what means the Qu family will use. What is certain is that if the Qu family sends people to attack the river mouth, even if twenty or thirty of us stay behind. It won't change anything after coming down... I think since Lin Fu has the confidence to lead the snake to the front, there will be arrangements on the Hekou side, so he won't be completely unprepared. Maybe after the incident, your Uncle Fu and the Lin family will be the first to evacuate to the prison island. With nearly 300 soldiers from Lin’s hometown and prison island, they should be able to hold on until dawn and wait for reinforcements to arrive.”

"Lin Fu won't arrange it like this," Sun Wenwan shook her head. She still tended to think that the Qu family would send someone to attack the Hekou directly. Although she thought that everything should be based on the Xihe Society, she could not do anything if she completely stayed out of the way and stood by. When he arrived, he said, "Not to mention that Lin Fu can't give up the estuary for others to spoil; there are no big boats on this side of the estuary, and although the distance from the estuary to the prison island is only five or six hundred steps, such a short waterway is very deadly. If possible, it's better to retreat to the surrounding house nearby... Dad, go to the south of the city with Wen Bing, I want to stay, and it can be regarded as an explanation to Uncle Fu, Xiaoman and Miss Su Mei."

Sun Jingxuan glanced at the corner building surrounding the house in the distance, the earth wall under the lamp was high and thick, more than ten feet high, and the corner towers on the four corners of the wall looked down again, like a fortress, and said, "Forget it, I will stay with you. Come down," instructing nephew Wen Bing, "don't delay, go back to the south of the city immediately. There are many people who come to Jiangning to fish in troubled waters these days, tell your father and brother to be careful with boats and food, that is the foundation of Xihehui. There can be no mistakes.”

Whether it was the bamboo hall, the thatched hall, or the new house that the widow of the Lin family had just moved in, the defense capabilities were very limited, but the four built surrounding houses were like earthen fortresses.

*********

Qingfengxing was in the manor on the east side of the Sancha River mouth of Longzangpu in the south of the city. Two fast horses came galloping. The two knights couldn't take their breath away. Mountain sound.

With a "squeak", the door opened from the inside, the gatekeeper stuck his head out, looked at the sign handed over by the passer-by, let them in, and glanced at the two horses outside the door, their front legs half-kneeling on the ground, foaming from their mouths. , In my heart, these two good horses ran away like this, and I don't know where they came from, so they don't care about horsepower at all.

She Feihu and Song Jia had dinner in the garden, and the guards notified the sentinels who were following the Lin Bing fleet to come back, and immediately let them come in to report, and Du Rong and Qin Zitan were invited over to discuss the matter.

"Lin Fu led the fleet before noon and encountered an attack before entering the Yuxi River. There were about forty to fifty boats, eight or nine hundred people from various water villages that came from Poyang Lake, waiting for the rabbit at the mouth of the Yuxi River. Lin Fu led the fleet to forcibly rushed. Entering the mouth of the Yuxi River, the estuary was blocked with large boats and the thieves were fighting to the death. When the officers and soldiers from nearby arrived, the water villages of Poyang Lake hijacked eleven wooden boats full of supplies and went away. Lin Bie led the fleet to stop at Yuxi. The estuary rested, and both sides suffered heavy casualties."

"Let's go to the Hekou," She Feihu stood up excitedly, "The Qu family has tested the reality of the fleet, and they will attack the Hekou tonight."

"I can go there. Young Marquis and Young Madam are not allowed to take risks." Du Rong said.

"The children of the She family are still afraid of this danger?" Song Jia said with a smile, "I don't want to miss the excitement tonight."

Qin Zitan frowned and said, "It's still strange," and asked the reporter, "Are you sure that Lin Tie was still on board when the fleet was attacked?"

"With officers and soldiers there, we can't get close to the reconnaissance."

"Even if Lin Fu had someone impersonate him, there were more than two hundred military guards on the boat, and he couldn't have impersonated others," She Feihu said. "As long as the defense of the river mouth is empty, the Qu family can't help Lin Fu hide in the river mouth and solve it together."

The **** fleet fought against the water bandits that were several times their own and persisted until the officers and soldiers came to the rescue. Although they also suffered a lot of losses, the combat effectiveness displayed by the more than two hundred armed guards was also quite impressive. of.

Zi Tan still had doubts in his heart, but he couldn't figure out what could go wrong. Du Rong immediately sent someone to prepare the boat. Tonight is a mixed bag of fish and dragons, and it is very risky. Since She Feihu and his wife insisted on going over, Du Rong did not dare to be careless about the protection.

She Feihu and the others took the building boat and took the Longzangpu Outer River to bypass the west city of Jiangning City and entered Chaotiandang. They walked more than ten miles to the heart of Chaotiandang Lake. From a distance, they could see the lights of the corner tower at the mouth of the river as bright as stars. She Feihu When people drove the boat to the corner tower, the outline of the prison island gradually emerged in the distance.

"Let's go..." She Feihu thought that it was still too far from the estuary, so Du Rong ordered him to go down and bring the boat closer to the estuary. Lin Bing dared to take in the assassins who were unfavorable to him, and he was looking forward to this moment.

"It's dangerous to go any further," Du Rong advised. "There are as many as fifty or sixty suspicious ships around the estuary. We really have to rely on it, and we have to wait for the Qu family to attack." The elites in the dark were ready to take advantage of the fire at any time, and they knew exactly what was going on in Chaotian Dangli.

"I don't know where the Qu family recruited so many people?" Song Jia said with emotion.

"Hong Zepu is in a mess, and the momentum is loud, and the forces of the various families are in chaos. It's enough to buy it a little. How many people still take the government in their eyes at this time? 400,000 taels of silver are hidden in the mouth of the river, I don’t know how many families will take risks to get it,” Zi Tan said, standing aside, “Besides, the Qu family controls the whole of Quyang Town, so men and women are bound to do nothing less. Even if they are self-supporting private soldiers, it is not surprising that they colluded with the surrounding water pirates and bandits."

"We can't wait here," She Feihu asked his wife Song Jia to help him put on his helmet despite the sweltering weather, "The Qu family attacked the Hekou, and it would be a blink of an eye if the soldiers of the prison island were not dispatched. If you wait here for them to start and then rush over, you won't be able to catch up."

She Feihu is still used to fighting on the battlefield. After spending more than half a year in Jiangning, he has a rare opportunity to fish in troubled waters. How can he miss it? Urged Du Rong to let the boat approach.

Du Rong wouldn't let She Feihu take risks, but he had to follow his wishes to get the boat closer. She Feihu was wearing armor and standing on the bow with a double halberd, watching the lights in the corner tower getting brighter and brighter. , The outline of the prison island is getting clearer and clearer~www.wuxiaspot.com~ There is a small sand island full of reeds in front of it. Du Rong commanded the boat to approach it, and it was too close to the mouth of the river.

In dry water, there are many sand islands and sandbars in the sky; in the flood season, there are only a handful of sand islands that can still stick out of the water. At this time, only a small piece of the sand island surfaced, but the reeds could grow in the water, and at night it would be dark and almost hundreds of acres in size.

"There are a lot of boats hidden in this reed field," She Feihu pointed to the dark reed field and joked with his wife Song Jia, "If I attacked the estuary, I would choose to hide the boat here and wait for the opportunity..." Before he could finish his sentence, they heard the rustling of the reeds, and just as they were dumbfounded, several oar boats filed out from the reeds.

The three sharp arrows of "Whoosh" attacked and stabbed straight into the cabin wall behind She Feihu.

The two sides are close to each other, and the nearest ship is only 20 steps away from each other. She Feihu and the others have no time to react. They just looked back at the three arrows that were still humming on the wall. Du Rong's reaction was Quick, and the guards immediately surrounded She Feihu in the middle.

"I haven't seen you for a long time, will the young master and young lady also go into this muddy water tonight?" Lin Bie's low and majestic voice came from the dark.

Lin Tie is in Jiangning! She Feihu looked over in horror, the six oar boats had no lights, and there were shadows, and it was impossible to see which boat Lin Bian was standing on, but the light refracted by the Lin sharp blade was extra cold, and the six oar boats were afraid. There are no less than four or five hundred soldiers waiting in battle.

At this time, the lights of the corner tower in the direction of the river mouth suddenly dimmed. In the sudden darkness, the Qu family was instigated or the Qu family directly dispatched people hidden in Tiandang to start cheering and attack the river mouth. The elites hid their hideous fangs behind them. My QT room is open! More vulgar official QT room number [9167] Click to enter
