Chapter 74 Attack
"It turned out to be Mr. He. The little one doesn't know Mount Tai. Don't be surprised." The officers and soldiers at the head said, but glanced inside.
The tip of the knife has picked up the coarse cloth and looked down: large pieces of coarse salt, yellow, and a few stones, which are the standard official salt, mixed with stones, which is already an unwritten rule.
"Go!" The leaders said and waved to several people in the cabin.
"Excuse me, Mr. He." He and He Zhaoyi arched their fists and turned back to the smuggling ship.
Everyone wiped the sweat on their heads.
"Your waist card is too amazing, isn't it?" Zhang Yang asked, "Buy salt. They gave you salt without asking for money. Now I have encountered an an smuggling ship. If I don't die, I have to lose my skin. As a result, as soon as I saw your waist card, I let it go without much investigation. It's more amazing than Jinyiwei's waist card!"
"Jinyiwei? What is it?" He Zhaoyi opened his big eyes, blinked his eyelashes, and looked at Zhang Yang.
"The brocade guard is the guard in brocade." Zhang Yang quickly explained that he made a guest appearance in history again. Jinyiwei was only available in the Ming Dynasty.
Being disturbed by such an episode, Zhang Yang also ignored the waist card he had just asked her.
This waist card, of course, is divine. This is the symbol of my He family. The He family is in Yangzhou and is also a famous salt merchant. They have close contact with forces from all walks of life. These little soldiers are not easy to send. If this ship hangs the flag of my He family, they will definitely not dare to investigate.
After passing Yangzhou, it enters the Yangtze River to the south, along the Yangtze River, and goes upstream. After Zhenjiang, Zhenzhou and Jiqing, it is getting closer and closer to Hezhou.
Thinking of Hezhou, he could get the silver promised by He Zhaoyi. Zhang Yang looked at the lush woods on both sides of the river and smiled happily.
"Why is the eldest brother so happy, grinning all day long?"
"Who knows? I guess I can talk to Mr. He!"
At dusk, I didn't rush to Hezhou City, so I had to stop on the shore for one night. The waterway here is not familiar, and it is very dangerous to sail at night.
"Dail, anchor, stop the ship!" Zhang Yang and several brothers of the boat said.
"Good! Stop the boat on the shore!" Pan Yuanming said and put down the sail.
The shore here is relatively shallow, and it can't directly reach the shore, otherwise it will be stranded. After choosing for a long time, I can only find a place close to a large rock, stop, anchor, tie the rope to the rock, and fix the boat, so as not to be windy in the middle of the night. The anchor of the salt ship will be pulled away, and the ship will drift with the tide.
" Make a fire, cook!"
The stove in the back cabin of the ship was lit by Lv Zhen, and there was nothing to do. Generally, it was just a pot of porridge, and it was a meal to eat with a big cake.
The night is getting darker, and the surroundings are getting darker and darker. There are no stars in the sky, and dark clouds cover the sky.
The nasal sound around him gradually sounded. Zhang Yang wanted to rest early, but when he thought of the silver of white flowers, it was more than a thousand taels, and the excitement in his heart could not be suppressed. He turned over and over again and couldn't sleep.
Forget it, get up and go to the bow and have a look.
Passing by the place where the curtain was set up, Zhang Yang really wanted to take a look inside. What is this young lady's sleeping posture like? Is it a sleeping beauty? Or a lazy and sloppy woman?
Forget it, peeping is not the work of a man.
Zhang Yang walked over slowly and opened the curtain of the cabin.
As soon as he poked out his head, his smile suddenly froze: in the dark, several figures sneaked on the rock next to him.
Cold sweat suddenly swung out from the back. The figures, each holding a knife, although it was very dark, the faint light of the knife was still reflected.
Fortunately, I found it in time. Otherwise, I'm afraid that the brothers of this ship and the young lady of the He family will be killed by the knife inexplicably.
The figure is getting closer and closer. Zhang Yang didn't have time to hesitate. He picked up the wooden stick next to him and threw it into the back cabin.
"Ouch! It hurts. Who hit me?"
"Get up quickly, pick up the crossbow, and get on it quickly! Alert! Enemy attack!" Zhang Yang shouted.
"What? Enemy attack! Get up!" Several sharp people, Lv Zhen, Pan Yuanming, Shi Yi and Shi Wenshan, have got up from their sleep, quickly picked up the crossbow placed next to them, and rushed to the bow of the ship.
The shout also shocked the figures. They paused for a moment and immediately rushed over like hungry wolves.
Because he couldn't see it clearly at night, although Zhang Yang had picked up the continuous crossbow hidden in the cabin, he did not dare to shoot. It was too dark to see clearly.
Thirty steps, twenty steps, fifteen steps. This time, he saw the whole figure completely. Zhang Yang did not hesitate to lift the crossbow and pulled the trigger.
"Wh!" With the roaring wind, the arrows flew over.
"Ah!" There was a scream from the figure, which hit the target accurately.
Zhang Yang pulled the lever and prepared for the second arrow.
There was no response. Zhang Yang looked down and didn't string the arrow. When he touched it again, the arrow pot above was empty.
Isn't this a trap? When I went to the battlefield, I found that there was only one bullet left in my gun to hit the enemy? Just leave it to yourself.
Seeing that his companion was injured, the remaining few people did not flinch, but rushed up more fiercely.
"Deng!" A man jumped into the bow of the boat, walking like flying, and was about to rush into the cabin.
Zhang Yang didn't have any weapons in his hand. Without hesitation, he threw the crossbow in his hand at the other party's feet.
"Bang!" The other party's feet were unstable, stumbled, his head forward, and fell to the ground. The knife in his hand was not firmly held, and he rolled aside.
"Despicable! Unexpectedly, with such a dirty means, I have the guts to compete with the real sword and the real gun!" At this moment, Zhang Yang had rushed out, picked up the waist knife and put it on the other party's neck.
"Brother, here we are!" At this time, Shi Yi and Lu Zhen finally arrived.
"Rap the arrow!" Zhang Yang said. The people behind are about to jump on the boat. Once they are close to each other, the crossbows will lose their function. I'm afraid everyone is in danger.
Needless to say, they also knew the current critical situation. As Lv Zhen and Shi Yi ran, they had already prepared the crossbow. When they got out of the cabin, the arrow flew out.
"Ah, ah" There were two more screams. The two people who ran the closest didn't jump on the boat. "Puff, pop." They all fell into the water.
Pan Yuanming and Shi Wenrong behind also rushed up, and the four consecutive crossbows shot in a row, which immediately made the other party cry and howled and fled in confusion.
Looking at the distant figure, Zhang Yang was relieved.
This time, it's so close. Why did I make such a low-level mistake? When he stopped the boat in a strange place, he didn't even let go of a sentry. He was touched so close that the other party almost got it.
"Who hit me just now?" Shi Xin said in pain.
It turned out that the stick just now just hit Shixin's head and bulged a big bag. It was so painful that he took a deep breath and his mind was blank. So far, he hasn't figured out what was going on.
"What's the matter?" A familiar voice came, and even He Zhaoyi was awakened by such a big movement and came out to see what was going on.
"Son He, it's all right. Go back and go back to sleep!" Zhang Yang said that the picture outside is not suitable for her as a girl.
"Who are you?" Zhang Yang pressed the handle of the knife hard, looked at the man under the knife, and asked.
