Chapter 41: Capture [Two in One](2/2)
Zhang Qigong gritted his teeth bitterly and shouted angrily: "Where's the ghost? Didn't he tell you when he took action?"
"Explain?" The Black Crow member was stunned for a moment, and then said suddenly: "Oh - "Kill everyone here", right? I remember it."
"Fart!" Zhang Qigong angrily cursed with veins on his forehead, "Zhang told you to catch Gong Zheng! ... Where is the ghost? What is he doing now?"
Perhaps because he was worried about Zhang Qigong's official position as "Captain of the Crown Prince's Mansion", the Black Crow member curled his lips and said: "Boss Ghost and his brothers are looking for..."
"Searching? Are you looking for that Gong Zheng?...So it turns out that Gong Zheng is hiding? In this case, I wrongly blamed them..."
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind, and he realized that he might have mistakenly blamed You Gui and others. Zhang Qigong calmed down for a long time. After coughing, he said with a little embarrassment: "Ahem, are you looking for that Gong Zheng? He is hiding.
Is it done?”
However, the black crow member shook his head uncooperatively and said honestly: "No, the ghost boss and his brothers are just looking for a drink... After killing people happily, they drink alcohol happily.
Getting drunk is the tradition of my Black Crows..."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to make a drinking gesture.
"..."
Zhang Qigong opened his mouth and was stunned.
After five or six breaths, his face turned red with anger, and he cursed: "Fuck your mother's tradition! ...Call the ghost here! Go quickly!"
Beside, Gao Xianhou Lu Xin, Yang Yi, Ya Wu and others all looked at Zhang Qigong with amazed expressions. Maybe they were also surprised that this learned man could actually curse such ugly words.
Perhaps he noticed the strange looks in the eyes of Gao Xianhou Lu Xin, Yang Yi, Ya Wu and others. Zhang Qigong, who realized that he had lost his composure, took a long breath and calmed down.
Inadvertently seeing corpses all over the courtyard again, Zhang Qigong sighed quietly.
Tough, the Black Crows are really tough. Just a few dozen of them were able to kill all the at least two to three hundred desperadoes that Gong Zheng had trapped in this courtyard, and none of them died. Thanks to him this time.
Two hundred black crows were also mobilized, which was simply overkill.
but……
He raised his head and glanced ahead.
"Happy, happy."
With two happy sounds, the ghost came to Zhang Qigong with the smell of blood and wine mixed with his body, and greeted Zhang Qigong with a smile: "Ah, Captain Zhang, the mission is completed."
"..." Zhang Qigong looked at Yougui intently, and asked with a slightly trembling voice: "Yougui, where is Gong Zheng? Where is Gong Zheng who I asked you to capture alive?"
"Huh?" The smile on Ghost's face froze, he took out a wrinkled portrait from his arms, reached out and scratched his head, tilting his head to recall.
Seeing this, Ya Wu explained with a slight sarcasm: "He was recalling whether he killed Gong Zheng as well."
Zhang Qigong paused when he heard the words, and asked with an ugly face: "Really, seriously? You..."
He really didn't know what words to use to describe his mood at this moment.
After careful planning and waiting for a full month, we set up bait to round up Gong Zheng, an important member of Xiao Ni. When things came to a close, you actually told me that you had killed the mission target as well?
Suddenly, Zhang Qigong felt his eyes go dark - how could he explain this to His Highness the Crown Prince?!
At this time, the ghost seemed to realize what mistake had been made here, and said sarcastically: "Captain Zhang, I remember, I didn't kill that palace official, I'll go ask the brothers..."
After saying that, he ran away.
Seeing that tall and thick guy running away in the blink of an eye, Zhang Qigong was filled with fatigue. He once again realized why Zongwei Gao Kuo would hand over the Black Crows to him so happily - this was obviously for relief!
At this moment, a member of the Green Crows appeared out of nowhere, walked quickly to Ya Wu's ear and whispered a few words.
Yawu nodded, and after waving his hand to dismiss the Green Crow, he turned to Zhang Qigong, who looked exhausted, and said with fists in his fists: "Captain Zhang, don't worry, that Gong Zheng has been captured alive by my Blue Crow."
Hearing this, Zhang Qigong felt as if he had experienced a sudden change and was as happy as seeing the sun through the clouds. He said in surprise: "Really, seriously?"
"Absolutely true."
Yawu smiled and said something that was very harsh to Yang Yi: "I have long guessed that the Black Crows are unreliable, so I sent people to sneak into the manor in advance and subdued the Gong Zheng... as a precaution
The night has been long and there have been many dreams. This person has been escorted back to Daliang by our Green Crows. After Master Zhang returns to the Prince's Mansion, we can see the palace official."
Hearing this, Zhang Qigong took a long breath and said with emotion: "Thank you very much! ... Otherwise, Zhang really doesn't know how to explain to His Highness the Crown Prince."
From the side, Yang Yi frowned and said to Ya Wu: "Yao Wu, you have crossed the line."
"It doesn't count." Ya Wu chuckled and said, "I was originally ordered by Master Gao Kuo to assist you."
"But you promised not to participate in this operation." Yang Yi said displeasedly.
Crow Five chuckled and said, "I'm sorry, His Highness the Crown Prince also attaches great importance to this operation. Forgive me that I can't just sit back and watch you Black Crows do whatever they want."
"What's wrong?" A hint of anger flashed through Yang Yi's eyes.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Qigong was very surprised.
Because according to what he saw, Yang Yi's status among the Black Crows was not high, even lower than that of the leader-level ghost. However, he did not expect that after listening to Yawu's scolding and teasing of the Black Crows, Yang Yi actually
would show such hostility.
In fact, murderous intent appeared in his eyes.
Realizing that something seemed amiss in the atmosphere, Zhang Qigong quickly smoothed things over and said, "Chief Yangji..."
However, before Zhang Qigong could finish speaking, he saw Yang Yi put his hand on Zhang Qigong's chest and pushed him aside with gentle force. Then, he took a step forward, looked at Ya Wu and said coldly.
: "Crow Five, I can tolerate the behavior of those bastards from Ghost Ghost sometimes, because they are my brothers and sisters, Black Crow, but you are not... It's time for you to leave. If you stay here any longer, I'm afraid I won't be able to bear it."
of."
After taking a deep look at Yang Yi, Ya Wu realized that the other party was not joking. He immediately stepped back, raised his hands and said with a smile: "The mission is completed, it's really time for me to leave... Also, I forgot to tell you that I
The Green Crows are assisting you this time and are also responsible for making a final assessment of you. This assessment will be sent to His Highness the Crown Prince for review by Lord Gao Kuo."
At this point, he smiled with a bit of contempt and continued: "Unqualified!... Black Crow did nothing outstanding in this operation."
With that said, before Yang Yi could attack, he took a few steps back, turned over and jumped onto the wall, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Asshole!" Yang Yi cursed secretly, and then apologized and said to Zhang Qigong: "Master Zhang, what I did just now has offended me a lot..."
Zhang Qigong nodded slightly.
For some reason, he could also feel the anger in Yang Yi's heart. Perhaps this was because he was now the direct superior of the Black Crows.
Afterwards, the Black Crows cleaned up the corpses in the farmyard.
After counting, there were a total of 216 corpses in the village courtyard. Seeing the pile of firewood burning these 216 corpses, Zhang Qigong couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
In terms of strength alone, the Black Crows are really strong. Even if they are facing these desperadoes that Gongzheng has snared, one against ten is not a problem. But in other aspects, the Black Crows are really in a mess.
But for some reason, Zhang Qigong has a good impression of these people. It may be because these black crows are all pure murderers.
Just like when he was in Song County, when he asked Sang Ya to massacre the entire Chang clan, Sang Ya didn't hesitate and fulfilled Zhang Qigong's instructions thoroughly, without asking the reason from the beginning to the end.
"...It matches me surprisingly well."
I don’t know what he thought of, Zhang Qigong smiled and said.
"But...the temperament of these guys is really random. We should really find a way to control it..."
Zhang Qigong turned his head and glanced at the ghosts smelling of alcohol and the other twenty or so black crows not far away, and said secretly in his heart.
After finishing the work, Zhang Qigong took Yang Yi and other black crows back to Daliang. As for the rest of the black crows, he sent them to Xiaohuang. After all, Zhang Qigong did not dare to let these guys enter Daliang.
Firstly, he was afraid that these bastards would cause trouble in Daliang. Secondly, many of them had actually been on the court's arrest list, and Zhang Qigong didn't want to go to the prison of the Ministry of Punishment to arrest them.
Having said that, this is actually a good thing. The worst thing is that these bastards killed the criminal officials who came to arrest them. This is the most troublesome.
After returning to Daliang, Zhang Qigong first returned to the Prince's Mansion. After confirming that the palace official had indeed been brought to the Prince's Mansion by the Green Crows, he breathed a sigh of relief and went to the palace to report back to Prince Zhao Run.
When Zhang Qigong arrived at the East Palace, Prince Zhao Run was writing something in the side hall of the East Palace. When he saw Zhang Qigong leading Yang Yi to return, Zhao Hongrun raised his head and asked with a smile: "Raw Wu's assessment, this king."
I’ve seen it... Regarding this, Qi Gong and Yang Ji, what do you two want to say?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Yi knelt on the ground with one knee and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, Your Highness, you are not strict with me because of your humble position. Please punish me, Your Highness."
Zhao Hongrun chuckled and said nothing, turning to look at Zhang Qigong.
Zhang Qigong thought for a while and said: "I believe that the Black Crows have many malleable talents, but they need to be restrained..."
Upon hearing this, Zhao Hongrun put down the brush in his hand.
He didn't mean to blame the Black Crows. After all, at first, he wanted to make the Black Crows into assassins who cooperated with the army. The leader of the Black Crows, Black Spider, also fulfilled Zhao Hongrun's original instructions and turned the Black Crows into assassins.
Together they made an extremely sharp blade.
For him, if Zhang Qigong could not restrain the Black Crows, it would not be a big deal for him to transfer the Black Crows to the army.
It's just a pity to do this. After all, the training of the Black Crows is far more cruel than the way the Wei Kingdom trains its soldiers.
"Forget it, regarding the matter of the Black Crows, Qi Gong and Yang Yi, you two should just worry more about it. As for Gong Zheng..." Zhao Hongrun paused and said in a deep voice: "Be sure to pry open his mouth and torture him.
Find out the whereabouts of Xiao Luan!"
"My lord, I obey!"
Chapter completed!
