Crowned with Pearls

   With strong wind and strong waves, Zhou Zhengshan rushed along with his trusted soldiers in his battalion, and finally arrived at the gate of the city just before dawn.

  Looking from a distance, the tall and solid city wall of Wujiabao seems to be indestructible. This is a fortress like the Great Wall. The people of Wujiabao rely on this wall to block countless attacks by Japanese pirates.

  At this moment, he is also here.

   The outcome will be decided this time.

  Thinking of this, Zhou Zhengshan raised his head solemnly, and shouted at the militiamen on the city gate: "I was ordered to come to help Concubine Grandson, please open the city gate upstairs!"

The militiamen on the city gate are obviously used to being knocked down by reinforcements. After all, Wujiabao has been built to resist pirates and pirates. Every time a pirate comes to rob, they have to send someone to report and ask the government to come support.

   This time there was such a big commotion in the city, naturally everyone here also received the news.

   Sure enough, after the people at the city gate asked Zhou Zhengshan to show his badge, they opened the city gate and let them pass.

  Zhou Zhengshan wiped the rainwater off his face, and led his hundreds of soldiers into the city on horseback.

   Entering the city smoothly, Zhou Zhengshan heaved a sigh of relief. He had received Zhao Er's letter before, so he intercepted the messenger sent by Su Yao to ask for help in advance.

   With this time difference, it is enough for him to bring people here.

   As long as he helps those pirates kill Su Yao while taking advantage of the chaos, then he can use the excuse that he came to rescue him because he received the news.

The journey of several days and nights made the people under him a little tired. Zhou Zhengshan looked at the crowd, and slowly scanned the faces of each of them, and then told his confidant lieutenant general: "Hurry up and take a hundred People go to the west gate, open the gate and let them go."

  The letter Su invited someone to ask for help had already explained the situation. She knew that someone in the city had colluded with Japanese pirates and had internal traitors.

  So Zhou Zhengshan estimated the number of personal guards she brought, plus those militiamen from Wujiabao, Zhao Er might not be able to complete the task smoothly.

  Since this is the case, it is necessary to introduce external forces to stir up the water again, so as to make the situation more chaotic.

   Only when there is complete chaos, it will be difficult to hold accountable.

  The cronies ordered people to leave, and Zhou Zhengshan reorganized the team and took them to find a place to rest first.

Hundreds of people said no more, no less, there must be a lot of movement, Zhou Zhengshan only hoped that even if Qin Dadao and Zhao Er failed, at least it would have an impact on the city, so that he could have enough Time to stir up trouble again.

  Just about to go around the huge archway after entering the city, he saw several horses exploring the way ahead suddenly kneel down.

  The soldier on the horse naturally lost his center of gravity and flew forward and fell to the ground.

  Zhou Zhengshan was startled. After all, he had been in the army for many years. He immediately realized that it was a stumbling block. He immediately stopped the people in the team who were going forward, and hurriedly shouted: "Be careful! There is an ambush ahead!"

  He reined in the reins, and looked at the few soldiers in front of him who had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up, feeling a little dazed for a moment.

  How could there be an ambush?

  At this time, here, why is there an ambush?

   Could it be that these people in the city did it? But what are they guarding against?

   This is the way for the imperial soldiers and horses to come. Even if they want to set up traps, it is reasonable to say that they should be on the side of the west gate.

  How could it be here?

  However, if the city already knew that they were not good people, how could they let them enter the city?

  He was stunned for a moment, and before he could fully react, he suddenly heard a piercing sound coming from behind him.

   is the archer!

  He yelled and hurried to dodge.

  But many soldiers were inevitably injured and fell off their horses.

  A series of changes caught him off guard, which made him extremely annoyed. He raised his voice and questioned the militiamen with bows and arrows behind him: "Are you crazy? How dare you attack the soldiers and horses of the imperial court?! Are you planning to rebel?!"

  The militiamen gave way in silence.

  Su Yao took Liu Jie to the front from the back, and raised his eyebrows with a smile at Zhou Zhengshan: "Master Zhou said who is plotting rebellion?"

Zhou Zhengshan was startled, the moment he saw Su Yao, he felt his heart stopped beating, his lips moved, all kinds of thoughts came to his lips, and finally he hastily pulled out a smile on his face: "Concubine Grandson! I finally found you! Earlier we received a letter from someone saying that you were trapped in Wujiabao, it was very dangerous, and we brought people here to rescue you!"

  At this time, you can still lie without changing your face.

  Su Yao thought it was a bit ridiculous, and she took the time to ask Zhou Zhengshan: "Master Zhou, the people I sent were going to the nearest guard for help, why did they come to you?"

  Zhou Zhengshan froze for a moment, and soon wanted to explain.

Su Yao didn't say any more, but said in a deep voice: "The pirates entered the city last night and were subdued by us. The weapons held by some of them are the ones we brought from the Ministry of Industry in Central Beijing this time. , all have special badges, that is the group assigned to your battalion, Mr. Zhou, do you still want to argue?"

   Zhou Zhengshan's hairs stood on end.

   This woman, this woman is terrible!

   No wonder everyone said she was the most cunning, his complexion suddenly became serious.

  Have reached this point, there is no way out.

   Either kill Su Yao, silence everyone present at this time, and fake the scene afterwards.

   Either, it is a dead end.

There are enough people with him here, and there are a lot fewer people around Su Yao than here. When he really fights together, even if some people have been lost, he still has the advantage, and he immediately leads people towards Su Yao jumped over there.

   Liu Jie reacted very quickly, and immediately covered Su Yao and retreated to the back.

  Listening to the movement ahead, Su Yao asked blankly, "Is it all arranged?"

Liu Jie nodded, ignoring his own danger, he kept trying his best to block Su Yao with his body, and hurriedly explained: "Concubine Taisun, don't worry, everything has been arranged, as long as they can be held here for a while, the militiamen in the city will still be there." Those who are recruited can almost arrive."

   Then it will be much easier.

  Seeing Zhou Zhengshan fighting frantically in the crowd, Su Yao narrowed his eyes.

   He is really a strong player, and there is a reason for being able to achieve this position.

  It's a pity, but the road has gone astray.

  The blade does not point at the enemy, but instead turns on the butcher knife at his own people. No matter how capable this kind of person is, it is useless.

Zhou Zhengshan thought very easily at first, after all, he felt that the people on Su Yao's side seemed to be much smaller than his own, and as for those militiamen, he didn't take them seriously at all, they were just a bunch of mobs, that's all. When they really fight against regular soldiers, they are completely disorganized.
