Mrs. Qi changed her clothes and came out with a maid, and came to the other courtyard with Cen Shou this summer.

"It's him!" Cen Shou stepped forward to lift the Japanese pirate huddled in the corner, took out the rough cloth stuffed in the mouth of the Japanese pirate, and said to Mrs. Qi, "He is good at hidden weapons, and yesterday he hid three silver needles in his mouth. "

This summer, Mrs. Qi graciously moved a round stool, allowing her to sit comfortably and try Japanese pirates.

"Who are you? Where do you come from? What are you doing in Xinhe City?" Mrs. Qi asked bluntly in Oriental dialect.

The Japanese pirate was stunned when he heard the Oriental dialect, opened his mouth, and waited for a while before murmured a word.

This summer asked curiously: "What did he say?"

Mrs. Qi stopped this summer with her hand gestures, and continued to question the Japanese pirates in Oriental dialect. The two of you asked me a question, and Cen Shouqian and Cen Shouqian stood aside this summer, but they couldn't understand a single sentence, and they were really anxious.

The two talked for a long time, only to see that Mrs. Qi's brows became more and more frowning, and her eyes became more and more sharp.

After the Japanese pirates said a word slowly, Mrs. Qi suddenly stood up, copied a wooden stick beside her, and swung it down at the Japanese pirates...

Cen Shou never expected Mrs. Qi's temper to be so violent, so she was taken aback and hurried to stop it.

"This person was caught with great difficulty, ma'am, but you must not kill him easily." This summer followed and persuaded.

Mrs. Qi threw down the wooden stick and said angrily, "He won't tell the truth, you have to show him some red!"

"In this case, Madam will give it to me." Cen Shou took out the dagger, "I picked his hamstring first, and if he didn't say it, I would pick his hand tendon..."

"Very good!" She had been fighting against Japanese for many years and hated the Japanese pirates deeply. Mrs. Qi sneered and relayed Cen Shou's words to the Japanese pirates.

The Japanese pirate's complexion changed drastically. He was a martial artist. He naturally knew that after breaking the tendons of his hands and feet, he would be a crippled person, and even daily walking and eating would be a problem.

Cen Shou didn't talk nonsense. The Japanese pirate was tied so tightly that he had nowhere to hide. He took the Japanese pirate's feet, took off his boots, and inserted the blade diagonally into the heel...

The Japanese pirate suddenly screamed, and the scream was so shrill that it made one's scalp tense.

"Okay," Mrs. Qi said, "he said he would tell the truth and say everything."

The dagger was already inserted into the ankle, and it was only a matter of picking it up to break the hamstring. Cen Shou was not in a hurry to pull the dagger out. to scare him?"

This summer is a girl's house after all. Seeing the fear and despair on the Japanese pirate's face, he couldn't bear it, and persuaded him, "Don't, listen to what he has to say. If he dares to lie to us, it won't be too late to deal with it."

Mrs. Qi also said: "No hurry, let him speak first."

Cen Shou deliberately frightened the Japanese pirates, and slowly pulled out the dagger.

Seeing the blood pouring out, the Japanese pirate was greatly relieved, knowing that the hamstrings were not broken. After this time, he didn't dare to hide anything, and honestly told everything he knew.

After listening to his words, Mrs. Qi's face was solemn, and she didn't speak for a while.

"Madam, what did he say?" Jin Xia couldn't help asking.

"He said..." Mrs. Qi took a deep breath and said, "The Japanese pirates who attacked Taizhou before will return to attack Xinhe City within three to five days. Dong San is the inner responder in the city."

Sure enough, this summer hurriedly asked: "How many Japanese pirates are there in the city?"

"He said that there are about 30 people under Dong San's hands. He doesn't recognize these people. It is Dong San who contacted them." Mrs. Qi frowned.

There were more than thirty Japanese pirates hiding in Xinhe City, and they were likely to be scattered in every corner of the city, just waiting for Dong San's order. At present, General Qi is leading his troops to Taizhou. It has been a few days since the army set off. There are only a few personal soldiers and family members of the Ming army left in the city, as well as ordinary people. Taking down New River City is a breeze.

"This matter must be notified to the general immediately by Feishu!" Mrs. Qi turned her head and instructed the maid, "Go back to the mansion immediately!"

Unexpectedly, this matter is so critical, Cen Shou thinks that Dong San will be arrested and brought to justice, so that he will confess his henchmen, so that he can catch him all at once.

Du Du is still standing there in a trance this summer. What she has seen repeatedly in her mind is the Xinhe City she has seen in the past few days, the old and weak women and children, a bunch of remnants... What is the value of making Japanese pirates give up Taizhou and come to attack

"How about going to catch Dong San?" Cen Shou asked her.

But this summer, he woke up like a big dream and chased after Madam Qi: "Madam, wait! I have something to say, just wait!"

Mrs. Qi stopped and frowned, "What else?"

"Ma'am, I dare to guess that this is a plan by the Japanese pirates to move the tiger away from the mountain. The purpose is to let General Qi come back to rescue Xinhe City, and then take the opportunity to attack Taizhou." This summer said, "Now there are many family members of the Ming army in the city, and Madam you Also here, it is where the military's heart is concerned, and the attack on Xinhe City is precisely to attract the attention of General Qi and chaos."

Hearing this, Mrs. Qi thought for a moment and asked, "This is just your guess."

"It's not just a guess. Madam, how many Japanese pirates attacked Taizhou?"

"More than 20,000 people."

"With the current Xinhe City, the Japanese pirates have 20,000 troops, and even ten Xinhe cities can be defeated. But they still have to spend a lot of time in the city to install internal response, in order to cooperate with the outside, I dare to guess, come to attack The Japanese pirates in Xinhe City are probably very limited, and they will not be the main force of the enemy army."

What she said made sense. Madam Qi thought for a moment, turned around and returned to the firewood room, and asked the Japanese pirate several times, but the Japanese pirate just shook her head.

"He is only responsible for contacting Dong San, and he doesn't know about other arrangements." Mrs. Qi said.

Cen Shoufu took out the dagger and said coldly to the Japanese pirate, "He may not know it, maybe he is just being tough." While speaking, he had already crouched down, the blade of the sword flashed with snow, and stabbed at the ankle of the Japanese pirate...

The Japanese pirate wanted to hide but had nowhere to hide, so he kept shouting, his voice was hoarse, and he even cried out tears.

"Forget it, I think he is telling the truth." Mrs. Qi said, "If it is a military arrangement, only the senior generals will know, and it is unlikely to tell him."

Cen Shouyuan just wanted to scare him, but the dagger only scratched at his ankle, and didn't pick his hamstring.

The current situation is unclear, making people feel like being in a fog, and the two paths in front of them are very vague. If General Qi is invited to lead the troops to rescue, it may be in the middle of the Japanese pirates' plan to move the tiger away from the mountains and cause Taizhou to fall. The morale of the army will be greatly affected.

These two paths are really difficult to choose, and this summer is also very troublesome. Compared with what she thought, Cen Shou also shouldered the responsibility of protecting their safety, and had to think about how to send them all out of the city if the Japanese pirates seriously attacked the city.

Compared with the two of them, Mrs. Qi seemed to have made up her mind and asked Jin Xia, "Where does Dong San live?"

"In an alley next to the Qingbo River. Madam, I'm afraid there are gangsters around him. If you catch him rashly, the remaining thirty or so people will be difficult to catch." This summer reminded her.

Cen Shou said: "We can closely monitor Dong San, and after he issues a summoning order, we can catch all the partisans!"

"This plan is very good." Mrs. Qi nodded, "I only have some personal soldiers left here, Mr. Cen, I will hand them over to you to dispatch them. Be sure to arrest them all, and don't miss any."

"I understand." Cen Shou cupped his hands.

Looking at Madam Qi this summer: "Madam, General Qi's side..."

"I will tell you the truth, including your inference." Madam Qi replied, "As for whether or not to return to help, it is up to the general to decide. We must be prepared to defend the city in the city."

"... Preparations for defending the city!" Cen Shou sucked in a breath, "Madam, do you think the general will focus on Taizhou and will not return to help? To be blunt, even if we can successfully capture the Japanese pirates, we will now be in Xinhe City. With only 2,000 Japanese pirates, it is enough to capture Xinhe City."

"Defend the city first. If the city can't be defended, then fight in the streets and stick to it from house to house." Mrs. Qi said decisively, "There are many family members of the Ming army in this city. I would rather die than be captured by Japanese pirates."

The determination and determination on her face was something she had never seen before this summer, and she couldn't help but startled.

**************************************************** ********************

"The city is closed! The city is closed!"

The heavy city gate was slowly closed, and four one-foot-thick door bolts fell, blocking the heavy city gate.

Not only the city gate, but also the estuary of the Qingpo River into the city was sealed. Thick iron bars were welded into iron gates, weighing more than a thousand jin, and they were sealed from the river surface to the bottom of the river.

Xie Xiao can justifiably don't have to go fishing anymore, and he doesn't have to worry about revealing anything. And this summer, because of what happened before, he was still awkward, and he refused to see Mrs. Shen, and stayed in the kitchen to help Yang Yue.

"It's really possible that General Qi won't return to help?" Yang Yue started preparing to pickle Xue Lihong, and it is estimated that the closure of the city will not be a matter of a day or two, or it is better to save some food.

This summer, he absentmindedly helped him choose dishes: "It shouldn't be so. There are so many family members of the Ming army in this city, and Mrs. Qi herself is here. General Qi will not leave his wife and children alone."

"It's a wife, no children." Yang Yue corrected her, "Don't you know? Because Mrs. Qi has nothing to do, so General Qi secretly set up a few rooms outside, and gave birth to a few children, because he was afraid of Qi Madam is incompatible with them, so they are not in New River City."

"..." This summer was speechless.

"Also, it is rumored that Mrs. Qi is the Hedong Lion, and General Qi fears her like a tiger." Yang Yue sighed, "I think it's really hard to say that General Qi's return to aid."

This summer asked inexplicably, "Where did you hear these things?"

"Buy food, it's all family members of the Ming army, with long tongues and broken mouths, you can hear everything you want."

"So, is it true?!" Thinking of Mrs. Qi's expression this summer, she sighed, "Could it be that Mrs. Qi also thinks that General Qi will not come back to help, so in her heart..."

Someone landed lightly outside the courtyard. This summer, the reaction was very fast. He picked up something and smashed it. Only when he shot it, he realized that it was a water scoop...

Catching the water ladle easily, Cen Shou walked in, put the water ladle aside, and said, "Is there anything to eat? I'll be starved to death if I stay up all night."

Because it wasn't dinner time, Yang Yue took the cold bun from the cage and handed it over, and said apologetically, "It's cold, I'm afraid it's a little hard."

"It's all right." Cen Shou took it over and said while chewing, "Finally, there is progress. After the city was closed yesterday, I saw that something was wrong with the guy. The lights in the room didn't go out until midnight. He woke up today. In the morning, I carved a mark on the big locust tree."

"What mark?"

Cen Shou dipped his fingers in water and drew them on the stove, but neither of them understood.

"You don't understand, right?" Cen Shou laughed, "I don't understand either, nor does Mrs. Qi, so she went to jail again. The oriental man who was arrested last time said that the sign means that the four will meet tonight. ... the snake is finally coming out of the hole!"

This summer is also quite excited: "That is to say, we can catch them all tonight!"
