Chapter 566 Sharp turn down (Part 1)

These "Cao Gang members" who attacked the generals of the silver army were all played by the people of the Dajiang Gang. Naturally, "Qiu Feng" was not Qiu Feng, but the deputy leader of the Dajiang Gang "Smile Tiger" Shen Keng. At this time, his follow-up troops had arrived, and there was no longer any survivors on all the big ships except his own people. Naturally, he had no worries and showed his true face. His smile became more and more strong. He waved his hand: "Brothers, hurry up and do things. Before dawn, we must empty everything, and then make everyone think that this was done by the Cao Gang!"

A few shouts attracted a lot of praise from the surrounding area. All the people from the Dajiang Gang were more motivated and worked hard to move the heavy silver boxes and grain off the ship. Hey, hey, hey, the sound of the horns rang throughout this world.

Chen Keng watched everyone busy with satisfaction. This time, he really killed two birds with one stone. Not only did he let Ben Gang gain so much wealth, but he also pushed the Cao Gang into the abyss. I believe that when everything here is discovered by dawn, the entire Cao Gang will become the target of the government's full force. At that time, the powerful Dajiang Gang can take the opportunity to take all the territory of the original Cao Gang and replace it!

Everything was achieved one by one according to the previous agreed plan, which was surprisingly smooth. Just as he was thinking about these things with satisfaction and looking at the ships behind, he saw a brother on one of the ships staggering, his body tilted, and actually dropped a silver box from his shoulder and hit the deck with a bang.

This made him very dissatisfied and immediately scolded loudly: "What are you doing? You are so careless. If the money here falls into the water, I will let you get it back!"

Just as he shouted loudly, there was a burst of exclamation on the boat over there. However, because of distance, he did not hear clearly what the brothers were shouting. He only saw everyone stop moving, put down the box on his shoulders, and wanted to open it to see what was going on.

This made Chen Keng even more annoyed, and he immediately ran to the stern of the boat and shouted: "What are you doing?"

"Gang Master Chen, this box is not silver..." Someone immediately answered loudly, his tone full of surprise, "This, these boxes are filled with stones..."

"What?" Chen Keng's expression changed again, and his eyes showed disbelief. He immediately turned around and shouted at the brother who was still busy on his boat: "Put down the box first and see what it is inside!" As he said that, he had grabbed a box closest to him in a few steps. Without waiting for the other people to react, he had already opened the box lid with force.

Just as the torch was shining on the side, he saw what was in the box, and his face suddenly collapsed. He took two steps back until he leaned against the bulkhead. The box in front of him was not the official silver ingots emitting the tempting silver light as he imagined, but the square and neatly tidied blue bricks!

As the bricks appeared, the four people carrying the boxes were completely stunned. With a scream, they tilted their bodies and turned the entire box overturned the deck. With a clamor, dozens or hundreds of blue bricks were scattered on the deck. At this moment, everyone on the ship was completely stunned as if they were imposed on the deck. Dozens of pairs of eyes were staring at the blue bricks, just like seeing a ghost.

Chen Keng even shivered, gritted his teeth, and couldn't believe it. He reached out to take two blue bricks and patted each other hard. With the sound of the crackling, the two bricks were slapped by him, revealing the color inside. It was not the silver white he expected, but the dull blue color.

"This... what's going on? Why are bricks? Hurry up, look at the food!" He suddenly remembered something again and shouted loudly. The others then realized that someone immediately untied the scoop at hand and poured out the things inside. Then he was stunned again. What was rice and grain? What came out was sand, stone and soil.

Then the others also opened the box containing silk, which contained some wooden boards. Then they unboxed and opened the mash bags... Everyone was crazy and opened the mash bags that were sent to the deck and sent to the boat below one by one. Then what caught their eyes was disappointment, and there was not a tael of silver or a grain of food.

At the same time, similar screams kept ringing on other ships. They also noticed that the situation was not good and checked the "trophy" they had obtained. Then they were still disappointed that the cargo carried on these more than ten large ships was actually bricks, stones, wood and sand...

When the many brothers in the gang were screaming one after another and kept coming, Chen Keng finally felt excited and suddenly woke up: "No, this is a trap. Brothers, don't worry about these things, go quickly!" Since the silver and food on these ships had long been replaced, it means that the government has always been on guard. Maybe the government army is on the way to come.

However, amid the messy shouting, Chen Keng's shouting was not very effective, and the brothers on the ship he was in reacted and looked at them in a daze.

"The government army may come to fight at any time. We can't stay here for a long time, and we won't put down our things?" Chen Keng became more anxious and shouted repeatedly. At the same time, he set an example and rushed to the side of the ship. After a few steps, he fell straight to the small boat down the rope ladder.

It was not until then that the others realized that they came over, and hurriedly left everything behind and followed their deputy gang leader to the small boat down. At the same time, they shouted together, asking the brothers from the other boats to quickly abandon the big and enter the small, and quickly leave this dangerous place.

Suddenly, the water was in chaos again. Too many people fell onto the boat from above, so naturally they brought the boats to shake continuously, and some people fell into the water because of this. Some people opened the cargo that had been transported on the boat to check, and found that it was still sand and bricks, and then cursed and pushed it into the water. Some ships wanted to turn around, but because they were too close to other ships, they actually collided with each other, which caused a lot of scolding.

Seeing this scene, Chen Keng was even more shocked and angry, but he was helpless. Everyone was panicked and their morale was low, so he could not be orderly. He could only scold repeatedly, let the entangled ships quickly separate, and let the small boats at the end move in the direction they came.

Just as these dozens of small boats were still crowding each other and in a mess, a whimpering horn suddenly sounded in the distance, and a fire was reddished into the dark sky. This made everyone pause in their movements, and they looked up at the red area, with surprise and panic in their expressions.

Chen Keng felt his heart contract, but he still tried to calm down and shouted loudly: "Don't think too much, leave here quickly and is the only way to do it."

"Gang Master Chen, is there a place where the fire is on the way? Where is the gang leader and our other brothers hiding?" someone asked in panic.

"Just, we just came from there..." Before Chen Keng could answer, someone else shouted, and then it caused an uproar and screams again.

What does this sudden incident mean when the fire that reflected half of the sky red, as well as the faint sound of drums and fighting sounds mean? As long as you are not a fool, you can guess something big happened, and panic spread instantly.

Chen Keng wanted to comfort the brothers, but when he spoke, he didn't know what to say. Before he could have a clear idea, clusters of fire suddenly lit up in the darkness behind him. With the sound of horns, the sound of killing came quickly: "The thieves attacked my official tax ship, brothers, kill the thief with me!"

"Kill!" A shout sounded from the flames, and hundreds of ships of all sizes rushed towards this side. There were still a hundred steps away from both sides. The sound of bowstrings and hundreds of arrows were already roaring.

The sudden attack of the army immediately shocked the Dajiang Gang members so much that they didn't know how to deal with it. The arrows flew, and they didn't even have time to pick up their weapons to resist, so they were shot overturned.

Only a few of them were lucky enough to avoid the head-on attack, and amid the screams of their companions, they either used wooden boards to block them or rowed desperately, trying to distance themselves from the official ships.

However, they forgot their situation. At this time, these dozens of small boats were still entangled, so how could they get out easily? So as these ships collided with each other, more people fell into the water, but they couldn't move even a single step.

However, the Shenkeng ships, who were in the front, rushed forward with all their might and rushed out of the mess. But they were not happy for long. Because they had not taken two steps, the waterway in front of them was blocked by the thick iron cables that stretched across the river and could not continue to move forward at all.

What does it mean to shoot yourself in the foot? This sinking clang was completely tasted. It was originally used to block the tax ship and take down all the officers and soldiers on the ship as a guarantee, but in the end it became a roadblock for them to escape.

And at the same time he felt regretful, several brothers on the same boat suddenly turned over and jumped into the water and swam forward decisively. Although this iron cable could block ships of all sizes, it could not stop smaller individuals from swimming through below.

Seeing this, the others chose to go into the water to escape. Not only the people from the Shenkeng ship, but also the many people from the Dajiang Gang behind them were constantly diving like dumplings and swimming forward.

However, in this way, they were even more unable to effectively block the attacks of the official troops in the rear. Everyone became lambs to be slaughtered, died on the ship and in the water in the rain of arrows that kept shooting. Just like the official troops they killed on the ship just now, they also became one-sided harvesting and slaughtering.

"Is this just retribution..." Chen Keng looked at the desperate scene in front of him and couldn't help but have such a strange thought in his heart. He thought that after today, the Dajiang Gang would really rise, but unexpectedly he was heading to the end.

Chen Keng, who smiled bitterly, did not choose to dive and escape like others, because he was not familiar with the water. On such a cold night, as long as he went into the water, he would die. Then, as more official and military ships approached, the remaining Dajiang Gang could not even get into the water.
