Troubled Times: Start with 800 Dead Soldiers

"Let the brothers give them a boat and you all put down your weapons!"

Listening to Su Xia shouting loudly - let go of the boat.

Ling Zhen on the side had a burning gaze, and his eyes quickly focused on Su Xia and others.

Almost instantly, Ling Zhen ignited the cannon in his hand.

The burning line became shorter and shorter, and there was a loud "bang" sound.

In an instant, the heads of Su Xia, Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying and others were filled with pepper and limestone.

Su Xia, who had known this, held her breath and closed her eyes tightly.

He had been prepared for a long time, but Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying and others did not know what was happening.

Their eyes were fascinated by the sudden lime, and their noses were filled with tears due to the violent stimulation of pepper.

"This thing is so choking!"

"Second brother, we can't even open our eyes!"

......

"Watch that Su Xia! Where is he?" Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying shouted wildly, but he himself was so stimulated by the violent smoke powder that he did not dare to open his eyes. He waved the big knife in his hand randomly as if he was blind. of chopping.

Although the thing Hong Tianlei Lingzhen studied was not lethal, it was similar to tear gas. After all, pepper could also cause wheezing, coughing and suffocation, but it would make breathing difficult.

When he was in the Tokyo artillery camp, his idea was impossible to participate in actual combat.

But he didn't expect that when he came to Pinghai Navy, this small Dengzhou Guard would become a place where he could display his talents and skills.

Su Xia's golden chain fell out of her hand, and the dart cut the rope that bound her.

Almost as soon as the sound of artillery stopped, Li Dong took the lead. From a distance of dozens of steps, he led these elite soldiers wearing masks and rushed over at almost the speed of Bolt sprinting [-] meters: "Protect the Lord. , catch them!”

The sailors swarmed forward, all rushing to protect Su Xia.

Dwarf tiger Wang Ying and others were captured alive before they could escape in time.

"Su Xia, you,,, you broke your promise, didn't you say you would let us go? Shameless!"

......

Wang Ying, who was captured alive, said angrily, completely ignoring the tears and runny nose on his face.

Soldiers from the Pinghai Navy swarmed up and tied up Wang Ying and other pirates without explanation.

The dozens of women who had just been rescued, without exception, burst into tears looking at Su Xia who was willing to risk her own life to save them.

The first battle of the Pinghai Navy, which was reborn from the ashes, ended with a naval battle to suppress the bandits.

The Pinghai Navy killed 17 pirates at an extremely low cost (two navy soldiers were injured), captured 23 pirates under the rank of Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying, rescued [-] women, and confiscated [-] dan of grain and Various other rare treasures.

.......

One day later, he was in the residence of the prefect of Dengzhou Wei.

Jiang Tongpan and Prefect Zhou Bin were already waiting for him.

Seeing Su Xia coming, the two people stood up.

After Su Xia bowed her hands to the two of them, she asked in confusion: "My lords, I just returned to the city with my navy, but why did I see heads hanging at the gate of the government office and the city gate!"

Jiang Tongpan smiled and explained: "Mr. Su, this is not the case yesterday when the regiment commander Zhang Ence wiped out a group of pirates in Penglai County and beheaded 12 people. They are all hanging here as a warning to others. They have been hanging here for a whole day."

Hearing this, Su Xia couldn't help but murmur in her heart: Can Zhang Ence's soldiers fight against pirates?

But he didn't say that, he just stated:

"Master Zhou, Master Jiang, I am here to report the interception and killing of pirates by our Pinghai Navy at Dengzhou Guard yesterday. Yesterday, I led the Pinghai Navy to kill the bandit leader." Yeye's groom "One hundred and eight below Du Kang" We have captured 17 pirates including the bandit leader "Dwarf Tiger" Wang Ying, and they are all being escorted outside the Yamen."

As soon as Su Xia said this, the eyes of Magistrate Zhou Bin and Jiang Tongpan were brightened. Zhou Bin asked in disbelief: "Master Su, what did you just say?"

"Sir, you must have heard what I said just now." Yeye's groom said, "The pirates of Du Kang and Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying have been wiped out by the navy since yesterday!"

Zhou Bin was overjoyed: "Is what you said true?"

"All the captured pirate supplies and captured pirates have been delivered to the door."

Zhou Bin couldn't hold back his temper. He paced to the door and saw the captured pirates and supplies.

"Master Su, this is a great achievement of yours. I, the prefect, will immediately report it to the officials and ask for credit for your pacification of the navy."

Zhou Bin is happy that Su Xia can increase his political achievements here.

Outside the door, a soldier ran in in a panic: "Your Majesty, many people came to the gate of the state capital, complaining and beating drums, saying that their relatives were regarded as pirates and were hanged on the city gate tower. "

"What did you say?" Zhou Bin had not yet reacted to Su Xia's good news.

The soldier repeated it again.

Zhou Bin hurriedly walked out of the door, and as expected, there was a lot of noise, crying, and injustice.

Hundreds of people gathered around the gate of the magistrate, crying and calling for injustice, while the people watching the excitement surrounded the gate of Zhou Bin's Yamen from three floors inside and three outside.

"This is how the same thing?"

One of the catchers hesitated and said: "Report to the magistrate, many people who came to beat drums and complain were said that those heads were their relatives in Penglai County, and they were not rebels at all!"

Zhou Bin's face was very ugly: "Nonsense, these are pirates captured by Zhang Tuan personally, these unscrupulous people! Since you are trying to catch the head, why don't you arrest them!"

The head catcher was a little panicked: "Sir, sir, tell the truth, among those heads, there is one person who I am familiar with. It seems that he is not a rebel."

"What did you say? What's the proof?"

"Returning to the magistrate, my wife is from the mountains of Penglai County. When I got married, I met one of them, my cousin, who was peaceful and honest. For some reason, he was beheaded..."

The prefect Zhou Bin shouted sternly: "Shut up! Someone come and take down this nonsense talker."

The sergeant immediately stepped forward and captured the head catcher.

"Sir, everything the little one said is true!"

Zhou Bin was also shocked by the arrest's words.

Jiang Tongpan's expression changed on the side: "Take him down first!"

He turned to Zhou Bin and said, "Sir, I don't think you can necessarily believe everything the catcher says."

Zhou Bin's face had become very ugly: "You mean, who is Zhang Ente's head hanging on the city gate tower?"

"It is very likely that he is the head of the Penglai County magistrate."

Zhou Bin's voice was trembling: "You mean to kill a good person and take credit for it! Mr. Su, what do you think?"

Seeing Zhou Bin throw the question to him.

Su Xiayi frowned: "Sir, since Zhang Ence said that the people he killed were the subordinates of Dwarf Tiger Wang Ying and others, I think Wang Ying and others have been captured, so they can tell if they are rebels at a glance. "
