Kou Zhong was about to take action but was pulled away by Xu Ziling. When he was surprised, Xu Ziling leaned into his ear and said: Mr. Zhong, don't forget that we are fighting for hegemony in the world now, not by showing off force and ruthlessness, but by using strategies.
Kou Zhong was stunned and said: What clever plan do you have?
Xu Ziling whispered: Do you remember the warship we brought from Jiujiang to Baling? The bow was also equipped with a sharp iron. If it is fast enough, it is guaranteed to break this giant ship.
Kou Zhongda Le said: You are actually more ruthless than me, but you pretend to be a Taoist gentleman who is indifferent to fame and fortune. Hee!
Don't you think you're out of character tonight?
Xu Ziling said angrily: Come on!
※※※
Bu Tianzhi, who was still on the ship, woke them up and when he figured out what was going on, he said with a moved expression: "Let me send someone to inform General Xiang immediately. If we can capture Zhu Mei and others, we will take away one of Zhu Can's arms."
Kou Zhong said hurriedly: If the enemy is not a fuel-saving lamp, he must have hidden sentries on the shore. If you have such a huge army to cover up the enemy, you will be a stupid bird if he doesn't leave. The deputy gang leader can only act according to our plan. You are responsible for ramming the ship, and we are responsible for launching it into the water.
Do you understand that this is called division of labor and cooperation?
Xu Ziling then asked: Is Zhu Mei very powerful?
Bu Tianzhi nodded to express his agreement with Kou Zhong's words and at the same time replied to Xu Ziling: Zhu Mei's head is as beautiful as Zhu Can's, but she is as beautiful as a flower and as poisonous as a snake and scorpion. Under her flowing cloud sleeves, countless heroes and heroes have ended up in hatred. Kou Zhong said with a smile:
Are there any floating sleeves that can be displayed under the water? Let’s see how beautiful and ruthless she is this time. Bu Tianzhi suddenly sighed:
The two young masters not only acted in unexpected ways, but also came up with wonderful ideas and enlightened their minds!
Immediately, he summoned his men to quietly lift anchor and sail upstream.
※※※
The warship slowly turned around. There were more than a hundred Giant Kun Gang warriors on board, each with strong bows and arrows in hand, ready to attack the enemy head-on. Twelve trebuchets were also ready.
Since the two of them successfully killed Ren Shaoming, the Jukun gang has treated them like gods. Now that they are serving them, their morale is as high as a rainbow and their hearts are excited.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stood at the stand with bows in hand and pointed out the location of the target, while Bu Dazhi kept giving orders. The warships slowly accelerated.
The river is quiet, with only the sound of the river lapping at the shore, which makes people feel the never-ending pace of nature. The bright moon in the sky shines slantingly on the river, reflecting the light of the river.
None of the hundreds of large ships knew about the coming war.
When it was about 200 feet away from the target giant ship moored alone on the outer edge, the warship turned towards the opposite bank and gained momentum.
Kou Zhong said to Xu Ziling: If we want to dominate the world, we must recruit talents. Otherwise, even if we have this clever plan, we will not be able to implement it.
Xu Ziling looked at the full sail and remained silent.
Kou Zhong couldn't help but asked: Why is Ling so active tonight?
Xu Ziling stared at the huge boat that was already in front of him and said in a deep voice: You are my best brother in the world. Since I promised you to help you obtain Yang Gong's treasure house, why don't you take the initiative?
Kou Zhong felt so warm that he was speechless.
Xu Ziling put his hand on his shoulder and said softly: "At the same time, it is also for the sake of Sister Su. Since people like her have a traitor in Xiangzi Mansion, of course they know the relationship between Sister Su and us. If nothing can be done, we may attack Sister Su, so we must capture one or two of them alive."
The leader was handed over to Xiangzi to use torture to extract confessions, and to find the traitor so that Sister Su's safety could be guaranteed.
The warship accelerated like a galloping horse crashing into the huge ship.
Only then did the enemy realize that something was wrong. The sirens were blaring and silhouettes were flashing. But it was too late to change the impending fate. The seemingly sacrosanct tranquility was immediately shattered.
Bu Tianzhi shouted: Do it!
Huge stone arrows were thrown at the enemy ships like a thunderstorm, and the sound of killing shook the river.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling also shot powerful arrows.
The wood chips were broken, the flying sail mast was broken, the enemy was hit by an arrow and screamed in agony! There was a loud bang! The pig-iron-filled bow slammed into the enemy ship's fragile starboard side like a mad cow.
The sound of the ship being cracked and broken was heard one after another. The enemy ship immediately tilted and turned in the opposite direction.
The warship also suddenly trembled and heeled to the side. There was a harsh friction sound, and then it rubbed the opponent's bow and the warship bent outwards to regain its balance.
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling jumped up across the void between the two ships and rushed toward the enemy ship, which had a big hole in it and was still spinning.
The enemy was in chaos, the lights were extinguished, and no one knew how many people fell into the river.
All the people on the surrounding ships were woken up and started making a noise.
When Kou Zhong landed in the opponent's stand, the giant ship had already begun to list and sink. The enemy had no intention of fighting and took advantage of the water to escape, as if the end was coming.
In the extreme chaos, he saw two graceful women breaking out of the window and throwing themselves into the river. They were agile and agile.
Kou Zhong laughed and chased after him.
However, Xu Ziling landed on the bow of the ship, like a tiger among sheep, attacking and defeating anyone who tried to block it. At this time, the deck turned into a slope due to the tilt of the ship's hull, and those who were attacked rolled down toward the river, making them extremely miserable.
Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind and the sound of wind broke from above.
Xu Ziling was so excited that he knocked an enemy away without looking and then slapped him away with his backhand.
Peng!
Xu Ziling was so shaken that he nearly slid down the slope. The man was also forced to stumble back by the force of his counterattack.
Other enemies use this buffer to take the opportunity to escape.
At this time, Bu Dazhi's warship came back and fired arrows like rain at the enemies floating on the river.
Xu Ziling took a deep breath and turned around to face the enemy. It was Pei Yan, the second master of Dajiang Hui, whom he had met once before.
I saw his pair of fierce eyes flashing continuously, showing that he was timid due to Xu Ziling's strong martial arts and could not help but retreat towards the slope.
The giant ship had sunk and most of the deck had sunk. There was no one else on the deck except them.
Xu Ziling slowly pressed his hands together to form a knife, using his true strength to restrain the other party from afar, he said with a calm smile: "Does the second master also want to run for his life?"
Pei Yan waved the big knife in his hand, stopped and shouted: "It's not too late to leave before I kill you."
Xu Ziling moved his lightning across the air and punched him.
Pei Yan yelled and almost fell down. It turned out that Xu Ziling changed his position and punched at a clever angle, hitting him on the right shoulder. Not only was it painful, it hit his heart, he even lost the knife. It turned out that he was not that bad. The problem was that he had no intention of fighting at all.
He lost his courage early, so he was taken advantage of by Xu Ziling.
At this time, his desire to escape became even stronger and he was about to retreat. Xu Ziling came to his right side like a ghost, but he had no choice but to give a sharp scolding and handed the knife to his left hand to fight back desperately.
Xu Ziling used roaming tactics, no matter how hard Pei Yan dodges, he could always force him to fight head-on, leaving him numb in his left hand and unable to perform his usual five-step attack.
This time and again, Pei Yan's left arm was hit with a big knife and fell to the ground.
Pei Yan was so distraught that he deliberately rolled down the slope using his ability to press against the bottom of the box, kicking his legs very fiercely.
Xu Ziling let out a long laugh, raised both fists, and was about to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop when an extremely sharp sound of breaking wind came from the left side.
When he suddenly realized that the enemy had been hiding at the hatch, the enemy's sword shrouded the space on the left and was filled with sword energy.
Xu Ziling instantly judged that the attacker's skill was at least two times better than that of Pei Yan. If he didn't deal with it with all his strength, he might suffer a big loss. He had no choice but to let Pei Yan go, turned around and waved his hand to catch the enemy's sword.
Peng!
Fighting with swords.
Xu Ziling was so shocked that his blood flowed and he moved two steps sideways.
The man took advantage of the situation and landed on the tilted sail mast.
Pei Yan just rolled to the slope of the deck and submerged into the river.
The sneak attacker was dressed in black, slender, handsome, and made up of makeup. He said with a long smile: You may be cruel this time, but one day I, Bai Wenyuan, will repay you well.
Then he turned over and fell into the river.
His voice was sometimes hoarse and then high-pitched. He was the one who spoke in the cabin.
At this moment, the river water had reached the foot of Xu Ziling, and the giant ship finally sank.
※※※
At this time, Kou Zhong chased the two women under the water for a short distance and far away. When he was less than four feet away from the two women, the two women separated and ran away.
In the dark river, Kou Zhong decided that one of them had the strength to chase him.
From the beautiful swimming posture of the other party, he was sure that the mermaid in front of him was You Qiuyan, especially her smooth bald head, which could not be faked by others.
Kou Zhong has fought against her many times.
When it comes to underwater skills, he is definitely not as good as her, a water expert, but he is far better than her in internal skills and hands and feet, so there is no need to worry that she can fly out of his palm.
You Qiuyan in front seemed to be losing strength.
Kou Zhong was amused in his heart, knowing that she was either trying to use a hidden weapon, or was trying to cast a net to pretend to sneak in without knowing anything. At the same time, he was holding the handle of the whip around his waist, preparing to give her an unexpected surprise.
Three feet, two feet, one foot.
You Qiuyan suddenly turned around and covered his head with the net.
Kou Zhong suddenly dived underground, lightly wiping the long whip with his right hand, took off his waist, came out of the water and circled around like a swimming goose in the autumn, and stretched out his left hand at the edge of the net.
Zhenjin used the Internet to report that You Qiuyan's delicate body was shaking violently when the whip wrapped around her slender breasts and sealed her acupuncture points.
Kou Zhong lifted her up and lifted her out of the water.
There are still calls for killing in the upper reaches. The manhunt game on the river is obviously in the ascendant.
Kou Zhong kissed You Qiuyan's lips and said with a smile: "Sister Yan, do you want to be intimate in the river or wait until we get ashore?"
You Qiuyan glared at him angrily and closed her beautiful eyes tightly. This was her only helpless way to express her protest at the moment.
Kou Zhong hugged her and climbed up to a shallow beach, pressed her under him and said with a smile: I thought you would be grateful when I let you go last time, but I didn't know that the one who was most cruel to me was your gang leader. Is your health good?
You Qiuyan opened her beautiful eyes and looked at him coldly and said: Kill me!
Kou Zhong came close to her crystal-clear ear, biting her ear pearl and said: No! I still want to let you go!
Then he patted her pulse point, jumped up and said with great enthusiasm: Because I like your pretty look. When your gang leader hugged your waist, I was so tired that I didn’t know how much I wanted to be the gang leader. Ha! But I didn’t hug you after all.
Did he kiss you and touch you?
You Qiuyan jumped up, her beautiful eyes rolled around for a while and she sighed: "Kou Zhong, don't regret it, I will never let you go if I have the chance."
Kou Zhong touched her face with his hand and said with a smile: "Actually, you are in love with me, so you hate me so much, but you don't know it! Let's go and see."
You Qiuyan didn't know whether she was angry that she didn't know how to dodge when he touched her, or she felt that she could not distinguish between love and hate for him. She stamped her foot and turned around.
Watching her beautiful back gradually disappearing, Kou Zhong couldn't help but think of the ambiguous relationship between Princess Dongming and Xu Ziling. Then he thought of Li Xiuning, sighed and hurried back upstream.
The first light of dawn finally appeared in the sky.
※※※
The victory of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling shocked the whole city of Baling.
There were more than thirty people captured by the enemy, three of whom were women, including the maidservant who landed last night. The dead and injured were difficult to count because they were floating in the water.
Xiao Xian and Xiang Yushan were very nervous when they knew there was a traitor hidden in the general's mansion and immediately launched an investigation.
Yun Yuzhen, however, was unhappy. She blamed them for going to deal with the enemy privately without notifying her, and she also blamed them for instructing her men to fight without her consent, which seemed like they had exceeded their authority.
However, under Kou Zhong's gentle methods, she soon returned the favor and started talking and laughing with them as usual.
In the evening, when Kou Zhong asked about the investigation of the traitor, Xiang Yushan's face darkened and he said: He had already known the opportunity to escape.
Susu responded: She is one of my personal maids and has disappeared since she left home this morning. Alas! I never thought she would do such a thing since I treat her like a sister.
Xiangyushan smiled bitterly and said: She has been serving her since she was a child. I never thought she would be bribed.
Xu Ziling frowned and said: Does she know martial arts?
Xiangyushan shook his head in astonishment.
Kou Zhong sighed: You deceived others. If my guess is correct, this maid must have been poisoned to make you think that there is no problem with the traitor.
Su Suju said in shock: Mei! Tears welled up in her eyes at the same time.
Xu Ziling glared at Kou Zhong resentfully, helped Su Su and entered the inner hall to comfort her.
Kou Zhong smacked his forehead and said regretfully: It's my fault!
Yun Yuzhen said in a low voice: You are indeed so kind to Sister Su that I am speechless.
Xiangyushan pondered: How can we dig out this traitor and cut him into pieces?
Kou Zhong glanced at the inner hall and let out a long sigh and said in a deep voice: As long as he made Sister Su sad and shed tears, I will not let him go. Bring me the maidservant who was captured alive. I guarantee that I can find out the traitor from her.
identity.
※※※
The maidservant was taken to the side hall. Kou Zhong waved his hand and ordered everyone else to exit the hall.
This maidservant was in her twenties and was quite handsome. Although her face was pale, her expression was determined, showing that she would not give in easily.
Kou Zhong sat next to him in the Grand Master's chair and said with a smile: "Girl, please sit down!"
The maid shook her head and pursed her lips tightly to show that she didn't know how to speak.
Kou Zhong calmed down and said: As long as you are willing to answer a few questions for me, I can let you go immediately and let you enjoy your great youth.
The maid was stunned for a moment, with a look of disbelief in her eyes, but then she shook her head.
Kou Zhong knew that she refused to believe that there was such a cheap thing in the world and said with a smile: Who doesn't know that I, Kou Zhong, am a good man? Your master wants to kill me not because I have done any bad things, but because I am greedy for Yang Gong's treasure house, so your master is
Bad guy. Ha! It’s such a simple truth. Those who don’t understand it are fools.
Although the maid was speechless, her pretty face was no longer so tense.
Kou Zhong patted his chest and said: Let me, a good man, make a promise that as long as you are willing to answer three questions, I will let you go.
The maid's delicate body trembled slightly and she said hoarsely: If I answer you but you accuse me of lying...
Kou Zhong interrupted her and said: "Everyone knows whether you are lying or not. For example, if you hesitate a little or have to stop and go, you will clearly be making up a story, so there is no need to continue!"
The maid bit her lower lip and said: Do you really only want to ask three questions?
Kou Zhong spread his hands and said: Of course! I am not a person who breaks my word.
The maid bravely looked at him with pretty eyes and said with full vitality: "As long as I don't hesitate or speak intermittently, can I leave?"
Kou Zhong said with certainty: That's it. But if you make these mistakes, I will immediately abolish your martial arts and sell you to the lowest level, and let you take on at least ten customers every day. Do you understand?
The maid's face changed greatly when she heard this. In fact, Kou Zhong didn't know how to destroy her martial arts skills, let alone sell her to a brothel. It was all a threat.
After a long while, the maid agreed.
It would be hard for anyone to refuse such a cheap thing. Kou Zhong had figured out her mentality so he wouldn't worry about her not falling into a trap.
Kou Zhonghu's eyes lit up with a cold light, which made the hair on the maid's heart drop and he said in a deep voice: "What is your name?" The maid said in surprise: "My name is Qiu. I wonder if it is so easy."
Kou Zhong took a few shots: The first question passed!
The maid held back the ecstasy in her heart and said softly: Mr. Kou, please ask the second question!
Kou Zhong said softly: The second question is hey! Who is your master?
The maid quickly replied: Princess Mei!
Kou Zhong said happily: Congratulations to the girl for passing two levels in a row. After answering the next question, I will personally send the girl out of the city to reunite with her family. It is best not to go back to Princess Mei. If such a notorious master is attached to you, it will be in trouble at any time.
This is a good lesson.
The maid whispered: Master, please ask!
Kou Zhong deliberately remained silent for a long time until the maid was so nervous that she suddenly shouted: "Who gave you the letter last night?"
The maid suddenly opened her mouth but no words came out.
Kou Zhong shouted: You can't pass the test!
Tears welled up in the maidservant's eyes and she shouted urgently: "I don't know his name!"
Kou Zhong didn't let her have a chance to think and shouted: How tall is he!
The servant did not dare to hesitate and replied: He is half a head taller than me.
Then Kou Zhong asked more than ten questions in a row and finally stood up and said: Now that I know who he is, I will send the girl away. Don't cry!
