Brocade tears

Mizu Annan took advantage of the aisle of the cell on the west side of the prison in Pyongyang Prefecture, and made a clever deal with the Japanese prison guard who came down from the cell on the east side to check.She has been trained strictly since she was a child, and she is well aware of the blind spots of people's sight. In addition, the lack of light is her greatest cover. Therefore, even though there is only a central row between her and the Japanese prison guards, she can't hide her figure at all. In the cell, the Japanese jailer didn't see her, so he let her go out swaggeringly.

Mizu Annan, who was released from the prison in Pyongyang Prefecture, quietly sneaked into the streets of Pyongyang.The West Gate, also known as the Ordinary Gate, is the city gate chosen by Guo Dayou to break through. An important reason is that this gate is closest to the Pyongyang Prefecture Prison located in the west of the city.At this time, Mizu Annan was also heading for the ordinary gate. She planned to leave the city before the night curfew, and go to the place provided by Guo Dayou to meet the Ming Dynasty people and pass on the news.

There is also a reason why she chose the ordinary gate, because this gate is currently the gate with the most frequent access and the most crowded people.Although Governor Xiaonishi is not sure when the Ming army will attack the city, just in case, he is intensively building the city wall of Pyongyang City.To this end, he mobilized all the captured Korean civilians in Pyongyang as slaves, and together with the army, they rushed to work day and night, piled a large number of spiked wooden fences under the city wall, and at the same time widened the trenches outside the city, and laid them before the trenches. A large number of ground ropes and ground thorns were spread all the way to the ordinary river to block the Ming army that was likely to attack.He knew very well that the walls of Pyongyang City, which were only more than one foot high and worryingly thick, could hardly stop the Ming army's cannons, so he could only keep the walls as far away from the range of the cannons as possible.

The Korean civilians working day and night outside the city were not treated as human beings at all, but were driven like animals by the Japanese army who supervised the work.These people only eat one meal a day, which is a sweet potato and rice soup with millet husks floating in it. They have to push a wheelbarrow to and from the city and outside the city from morning to night, constantly transporting construction materials, because a large amount of construction materials are It was dismantled from the buildings in the city, and then transported outside for processing.The complicated personnel exchanges made the overseeing Japanese soldiers dizzy. It was impossible for them to remember the identity and appearance of every Korean, so it was inevitable that enemy spies in disguise would be brought in.Of course, the Japanese are not unaware of this. There have been ninjas wearing Japanese military uniforms stationed here before, who are responsible for monitoring and screening spies.But now the leader of the ninja, Yazaemon, is dead, and there is no leader among the ninjas, and most of them have been sent out to re-establish the intelligence network. Because Yazaemon is dead, many dark threads that only he knows have been broken. Well, Yazaemon's confidantes only know a small part of the intelligence network, and a few people can't operate the whole situation together. They can only overthrow the entire intelligence network and re-establish the intelligence network.

Now is the best time to get out of the city.And in the evening, it was the time when the Japanese army changed shifts and the large troops gathered for dinner. At this time, the surveillance at the city gate was the weakest.

Mizu Annan took off the black clothes on his body, took off the black cloth covering his face, folded the clothes and wrapped them up, then smeared his face with ash, messed up his bun, put on a tattered men's suit, and stole a car Some broken bricks and tiles were piled on the carts piled up beside the city gate, and the clothes were hidden under the tiles, and then they pushed the carts out of the city.The Japanese soldiers at the gate of the city let her out without even looking at her. They were still playing and bragging with each other at that time.Yazu Annan couldn't help sighing in his heart, the Xiaonishi Army is just like this, its combat effectiveness is really mediocre, these ashigaru are also farmers, if they don't hold iron cannons, how can they beat the North Koreans who only have knives and guns?When these people met the Ming army with heavy artillery in their hands, the outcome must be clear in an instant. Toyotomi Hideyoshi's ambitions were too great, and he had a very serious misjudgment of the Ming Dynasty.

Yazu Annan was very much looking forward to Toyotomi Hideyoshi's failure, and it would be best to see his army suffer a crushing defeat, so that she could comfort the souls of her entire family.

When she was pushing the cart out along the right lane, there happened to be a small group of North Korean prisoners pushing empty carts into the city on the left lane. When they passed by, Mizu Annan heard the Japanese guarding the gate talking to them.

"Password!" the Japanese army asked roughly.

"Wild boar..." An old voice replied, he spoke Japanese, his voice was very low.All the passwords are in Japanese, and most of the Korean prisoners have only learned the pronunciation, and don't understand what it means.When entering the city, everyone was separated by a certain distance, and anyone who dared to answer the password loudly and passed it to the back for people to hear would be beheaded on the spot.A lot of bones were piled up beside the door, and they piled up into mountains in the harsh winter, and the blood was frozen, staining a large area of ​​land red, which gave everyone the most intuitive shock.No one dares to speak loudly here, except the Japanese army.Yazu Annan glanced at the owner of the old voice, a terrible scar on his face attracted her attention.

There was something about this man that she was familiar with, if there was something that seemed to be there... something seemed wrong?Yazu Annan had an intuition.

Behind the old man with the scar, another man who looked relatively young answered the password. His voice was a little thin, and it seemed that he deliberately lowered his voice to speak. Mizu Annan noticed that he seemed to be a woman, but this was only from It's hard to say what evidence can directly support her intuition.

But not everyone has this intuition, and the Japanese soldiers guarding the gate did not. Both of them answered the passwords correctly, and they were allowed to enter the city smoothly.Mizu Annan brushed past them, and the thought of realizing the strangeness was fleeting, and his footsteps only paused for a while, and he didn't pay any attention to it.

Did the Ming army's spies enter the city?It seems that the Ming Dynasty people in the prison don't need her to worry about it anymore, Mizu Annan showed a knowing smile.

……

Li Laosan was in front, and Zhu Yan followed, and the two silently pushed the empty cart into Pyongyang City.Li Laosan didn't cover up his scars, but his originally cold and resolute expression changed to a bitter and hatred expression, and his whole temperament changed, just like an old Korean farmer who suffered a lot.Behind him, Zhu Yan was dressed in men's clothing, looking like a poor scholar with no power to restrain himself, downcast and humble.

The supervisor of the Japanese army who supervised their group's entry into the city was still by their side, and they did not dare to act rashly.They were driven all the way to the shack area where these North Korean prisoners lived in groups, and handed over to the rest of the Japanese army to take care of them. The supervisor left for dinner.

The North Korean slaves had nothing to eat, because their only meal today had been eaten at noon.In the following night, they could only huddle in the corner of the hut with hungry stomachs, around a large bonfire burned by waste wood given to them by the Japanese army to keep warm and rest, and some even couldn't open their eyes again the next morning. , will be directly dragged away by the Japanese army, and piled up in the big pit just dug not far away.

Even the experienced and well-informed Li Laosan felt that the tragedy in this shanty town was appalling, while Zhu Yan, who had not yet cultivated enough, already had an expression of wanting to vomit.Fortunately, the two quickly found a gap and quietly left the shack area, escaped from the surveillance of the Japanese army.It was a breeze for them, without anyone noticing.

They kept looking for cover, walking slowly and cautiously through the dark streets of Pyongyang under the night.Li Laosan looked up at the gradually appearing stars in the sky to identify the direction. Having memorized the map of Pyongyang City provided by the North Koreans, he quickly led Zhuyan to the edge of the Pyongyang government office.They circled the Pyongyang mansion and found that the back door of the Pyongyang mansion had been sealed, leaving only the front door and side door to enter and exit.I'm afraid they won't get more effective information at the front door, and if Zhu Yan wants to pretend to be a military prostitute and sneak into the government office, she won't go through the main door, so they chose to ambush in a hidden place and monitor the side door of the Pyongyang government office.

"Father, don't we go in?" Zhu Yan asked in a low voice.

"Don't worry, let's figure out the situation first. It's still not sure that Lao Guo and his party are in this mansion. When it's confirmed, it's not too late to find an opportunity to sneak in." Li Laosan said very calmly.

"However, just by observing here, we don't know whether they are inside or not. We don't have much time." Zhu Yan was a little anxious.

"Don't worry, you girl is good at everything, but you are impatient. Wait a minute, don't rush in." Li Laosan said.

They lay in ambush outside the side door and watched for a while, but the side door was closed tightly, and no one came in or out for a long time.Just when Zhu Yan was waiting impatiently, and Li Laosan was also hesitant, the side door suddenly opened, and several people came out.The leader is a general of the Japanese army with exaggerated armor. It is a pity that Li Laosan and Zhu Yan are not familiar with the Japanese people and cannot recognize who he is. Although they have seen the portraits of several Japanese generals from the intelligence department, that The portrait is so deformed that it doesn't match the real person.

There are several Japanese generals behind the leading Japanese general, and they seem to be of high rank.They didn't go through the main entrance, but went out from the side door, which immediately attracted the attention of Li Laosan and Zhu Yan.Not long after, Li Laosan and Zhu Yan noticed the family crest on the leading Japanese general. There were five generals in total, and the family crests on the three generals were the same as the leading general. the difference.

"If my guess is right, we had a stroke of luck. We directly bumped into Chief Xiaonishi and his generals. The one with the different family crest should be Yoshitomo, the lord of Tsushima Island." Li Laosan lowered his voice. Voice, said to Zhu Yan.

Zhu Yan was both excited and nervous, her palms were constantly sweating.

"Go...following them is more useful than guarding here." After saying that, Li Laosan quietly got up, followed by Zhu Yan.

At this time, the top Japanese generals in Pyongyang did not go through the main entrance, but left the Pyongyang government office through the side entrance. There were no personal guards, no sedan chairs and horses to travel, and they just walked out. It's weird, of course you have to follow up and have a look.

Taking advantage of the cover of the night, they followed the five Japanese generals all the way, turned back, and returned to the west of the city where they entered the city, and finally stopped outside a compound with a high wall and a black gate.The plaque on the gate of the courtyard told them that this was the Pyongyang Prefecture Police Department.

The five Japanese generals were not in a hurry to enter the Pirate Hall, but walked around to the back door of the Pirate Hall, as if they were waiting for something.Li Lao San touched the scar on his face, and said to Zhu Yan:

"Zhuyan, stay here and watch them. If there is any situation, let me know by tweeting like Ye Xiao. I'll go in and have a look."

"Yes, father-in-law." Zhuyan didn't ask Li Laosan what he was going to do, she and Li Laosan had the same thoughts at this time, they both guessed that there must be some key secret hidden in the robbery hall. Otherwise, these five high-ranking Japanese generals would not have come here so secretly.They must be here to wait for someone to arrive, and then enter the burglary hall together to meet someone in the burglary hall.Maybe Guo Dayou and others are in the arresting and robbery hall, and they may be waiting for Wang Daoming.In order to confirm this guess, Li Laosan had to enter the arresting and robbery hall to investigate.

Li Laosan quickly disappeared into the night, and Zhu Yan patiently waited in the dark, observing the five Japanese generals at the back door of the Pirate Hall.Zhuyan knows a little bit of Japanese, and can understand the conversations of some Japanese people.She pricked up her ears to carefully capture the conversation of the five Japanese generals, but these five people remained silent, standing there like five statues.

After about a cup of tea, a carriage drove up in the distance and stopped at the back door.A Japanese warrior with a saber jumped down from the front shaft of the carriage, and a woman in black came out of the carriage. The woman in black held a blunderbuss and threatened a person to get out of the carriage.Zhu Yan recognized this person at a glance.

It really was Wang Daoming!
