Chapter 1363 The Underrated Scout
Five arrows accurately penetrated through the porthole, and a scream came from inside later.
At this time, another small boat also came, and there were strong men on it.
As soon as the boat was approaching, the strong men climbed up with a special hook ladder. As soon as they looked at their skills, they knew they were bandits who were seeking life on the water.
In the cabin, Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji were sitting together and drinking.
The wine is brewed with a low degree and a good taste.
The food was filled with peanuts. The two of them sat near the porthole, slowly peeling the peanuts and putting them in wine.
"ah……"
At this time, an arrow penetrated through the porthole and nailed it to the partition of the cabin, and a loud bang.
"ah……"
Shen Shitou sat in the corner, and while the arrow was nailed to the cabin, he swallowed the peanuts in his mouth and let out a scream.
"The sound is shorter, too long."
Fang Xing took a sip of wine and trained Shen Shitou's acting skills.
"ah!"
"Well, it's almost done. You have to think about the screams in the future. It's the product of pain and panic. If you think about it frequently, your acting skills will go to the next level."
The hull was shaking, and the sunken stone nodded, really wondering how the screams could be realistic.
"It's time to start!"
Fang Xing felt a hull shaking sharply, which was a sign of the enemy's attack.
Shen Shitou pulled out his knife, opened the door of the cabin, and glanced left and right.
"crossbow……"
Fang Wu's shout came, and then there was a collapse.
"ah……"
In close combat, crossbow arrows are equivalent to pistols with only one bullet, and they will be close to each other when they are fired.
But there are more than just crossbow arrows in Baoshan Guards, and there are also...
"volley!"
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
A brief burst of flames illuminated the deck, and the strong men were beaten by crossbows and volleys, and the rest of them saw that there were weapons such as muskets on the ship, so they stopped talking about anything and ran away!
“Beebeep!”
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
The remaining three strong men ran to the side of the boat, but the shrill whistle sounded, and the second round of muskets arrived as scheduled...
The enemies on the deck were swept away, and the two small boats had already begun to retreat.
The bamboo pole propped up the big boat, and the small boat slowly separated.
The five sharpshooters on the ship stared nervously at the deck, with bows and arrows hanging down, ready at any time...
The discrete fog caused by the fight began to gradually close. As the visibility was about to decrease again, someone on the ship suddenly shouted: "Grenade!"
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
Ten musketeers rushed to the deck and made a volley when the sharpshooters just pulled their bows and arrows.
"puff!"
This time the volley was a bit hasty, but one person was still knocked down.
The fear of death made the remaining four people dodge for a moment.
It was just this that left the scouts behind him time to throw grenades.
"The scouts must accurately throw the grenade into a pit at forty steps."
Fang Xing introduced the situation to Zhu Zhanji.
"Forty steps, that's good."
“That’s just the minimum standard…”
"Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom!"
The explosion sounded outside did not affect Fang Xing's appetite at all. He touched his stomach and said, "I'm a little hungry, I'll make a bowl of noodles, do you want it?"
Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Put more chili so that you can sleep warmly at night."
While Fang woke up, the battle had ended outside.
Several scouts tied bamboo poles and stretched out with lanterns, with muzzles standing beside them.
There were no standing people on the two small boats on the river surface. Several men were lying on the boat and twitching. On the side, there was still an undead man swimming desperately in the river.
"Take the hook!"
Someone jumped into the water, then hooked the dead guy with a long rod hook and slowly dragged it over.
When you get closer, you first knock it out with a punch, then tie it with a rope and drag it on it.
"So cold! Oh!"
Xiaodao went into the water. After he got ashore, Xin Laoqi quickly threw a big towel over.
"Rubb and warm up your body, and then drink some wine."
Several scouts woke the prisoners up and then began interrogation.
After Fang Xing and Zhu Zhanji finished their noodles, they confessed.
"Your Highness, you are a water bandit. Since the canal was fully connected, these water bandits have been beaten into farmers by the navy. However, someone found them a few days ago and paid a big price to ask them to come to the canal to kill people..."
"There are five archers on the ship, all aliens. They don't speak all day long, but they just keep rubbing their bows and arrows. Each arrow was checked countless times..."
"The five people died, four of them, and one of them committed suicide by serious injuries. Most of the other bandits died, but I guess someone should have escaped from behind the fleet."
Zhu Zhanji nodded, patted the peanut crumbs on his hand and said, "Then let it be, be careful, let's go to rest."
When the person left, Zhu Zhanji's eyes suddenly turned cold, "Who could it be?"
"The five people are mostly assassins from Kazakhstan, but it's interesting to be able to mingle with these water bandits. The person behind them has a lot of energy."
Fang Xing smiled bitterly and said, "It must be incompatible with the royal family, but I don't know whether the main target is me or you. If it were me, it would probably be..."
Zhu Zhanji suddenly sneered: "No, the original intention of this assassination must be to worry that we will go to the south to purify the officialdom, but after getting involved in the Halie people, the man must be crazy. He probably wanted to muddle the water so that he could get out of the matter."
"You think too much, the Halie must be someone who will help him, otherwise neither side will trust anyone."
Fang Xing was a little depressed. The assassination was not dangerous. The other party underestimated the scouts' combat effectiveness, resulting in a complete defeat.
But there is such a guy in the court who dares to collude with the water bandits and finally has a hand with the Halie people, which is shocking!
Fang Xing looked up and was worried when he saw Zhu Zhanji, so he knew that he was also worried about this.
"We came out three days late, which gave them time to calmly arrange. However, the man was obviously not proficient in the battle formation, so he used the water bandits. In fact, the best thing he had is to use the five archers to snipe."
"Jinling?"
Zhu Zhanji said disdainfully: "That person is afraid he is already panicked. He is in a panic and just wants to take action to eliminate hidden dangers as soon as possible. He is not a person who can accomplish great things."
People who can accomplish great things have one characteristic - patience and tolerance!
But who is this person?
Zhu Zhanji wished he could return to Beijing immediately, and then suggested that Zhu Di find this person among all officials.
"Okay, there will be no more problems with the road ahead..."
...
Not far from the shore, a middle-aged man saw the flames and explosions on the horse's back. Then he waited until there was no movement, and then slowly drove away.
After he walked away, a team of cavalry came and then searched carefully on the shore.
"Sir, I have horse hoof prints, I probably have just left not long ago."
"Go and chase, it's up to ten miles. If you can't catch it, come back."
"yes."
