Chapter 273 Jinling is right in front of you

Yangzhou City,

The backyard of the Imperial City Si Yamen.

After Ji Yunhui carried the unconscious man to the side room, he didn't send anyone over. He just walked outside the house and observed everyone's reactions. Ru Ming had been unconscious for four hours, which showed that the weirdness in the forest was not trivial.

"Ahem!"

"Sir, brothers are awake."

Following the words of the general banner next to him, the people in Dadong Pavilion coughed a few times and woke up. Some people looked around in confusion. When they saw Master Qianhe walking at the table, they asked in confusion;

"Sir, is that somewhere? We can't be in the backyard."

"It's in the backyard. If you think about it again, you can't even remember anything?"

The general flag asked from the side.

"Can not remember,"

Ji Yunhui saw that no one seemed to be lying, so he ordered;

"Third brother, let them drink some water, and then start eating. We won't go back later. This is a critical moment and we must not be short of legs."

"No, sir, I am humbled by Minghong. Sir, are you looking for someone in the backyard? Is there anything you can find there?"

The commander-in-chief is also worried. If he doesn't find out the reason, it will be unsafe to stay here. Furthermore, the plant that causes people to stun people has not been found specifically where, so he is afraid that one of his own people may be infected.

Ji Yunhui hesitated after thinking about it. Could it be that the sky outside was getting darker and darker, making it even more unsafe at night?

He was afraid that like the original person, he would be fucked unknowingly. Thinking of that, Ji Yunhui said,

"Third brother, we can't stay here for a long time. If it's not true, we can deal with those people in the Imperial City Division. So to be on the safe side, let's withdraw and go back to Mr. Lin's mansion. No one will come and we can fight with swords and swords."

Kill, I am really afraid of them."

The commander-in-chief thought for a while and wondered whether all the corpses in the bamboo forest were killed by swords and fighting, so Mr. Lin's residence did not have those things, and the planting of that kind of plants must not have happened overnight.

"No, sir, it's time to withdraw. What about now?"

"Notify people, withdraw now."

"No sir."

Ji Yunhui was not pedantic, he stood up and gave orders, then went out with his men to gather his troops, and left in a hurry from the main entrance hall.

That scene shocked many people.

After Ji Qianhu took the people away, many figures secretly entered the Imperial City Si Yamen, and then the swimming group ran out in chaos and dispersed.

One of the spies ran back to a deep house in a panic and entered the concierge through the side door. Immediately afterwards there was a burst of exclamation.

The residence of the magistrate of Yangzhou,

The steward ran out of the concierge with his legs spinning, panting heavily all the way, passed through several courtyards, and shouted anxiously at the door of the study;

"Master, master, something happened."

"What are you yelling about? What could happen?"

Magistrate Ye had a bulging stomach, drank tea, and was writing a secret letter at the desk. When he heard the loud voice of the steward outside the door, he got impatient and scolded him.

"Sir, something really happened."

The steward outside the door stamped his feet anxiously, then raised his voice and shouted, Magistrate Ye was helpless, so he threw Mao Geque aside and stood up angrily.

"Come in and tell me what's going on."

"No, sir."

The steward pushed the door open directly and rolled in without being able to stand still. He was the first to do so, and for a while he looked straight at Ye Jichang.

"I'm an idiot. I told me to get out, but if you don't let me really get out, he..."

I was so angry that I was speechless and speechless.

The steward got up in a hurry, helped Dong's hat, straightened his clothes, then went back and closed the door, and then came over and said;

"Master, please calm down. I really have something to report. Just now, a large number of people came out of the Imperial City Si Yamen and went straight to Lin Ruhai's mansion."

"What, are those people crazy? What can you do? Hurry up and let the government army send people to stop them."

Ye Jichang's heart tightened. Could it be that he asked the wrong Lin Ruhai to do something wrong? With so many people watching, it was almost crazy.

"No, sir, those people who came out are not from the Imperial City Department in the capital, nor are they from Yangzhou City."

The steward even moved his legs and explained.

"What about the people from the Imperial City Division of Yangzhou City?"

Yejichang asked again.

"Master, I don't know. The spies found no trace of anyone after they went in, so they came back to report the news first."

The steward didn't know the original trace of the men and horses, so he repeated the spies' words.

Ye Jichang had his legs behind his back and was pacing back and forth with a frown on his face. It was like a troubled autumn, so he didn't worry about it and was on guard at every turn.

"It's over. That's none of their business. It's not up to them whether they live or die. In that case, I will go to Jinling tomorrow night and hand this letter to Mr. Xu, the transshipment officer of Jiangnan. Be sure not to miss it. I'm very grateful.

Take the canal and go overland."

"No, sir, the young one will go now."

The steward took the secret letter, put it in his arms, and rode out of the city with the palace guards.

Watching the steward leave, Ye Jichang said silently, hoping that he would be there in time.

The sunset gradually sets in the west,

Each building boat hung up its lanterns in advance and lit them by candlelight.

Suddenly the sentry on the bow reported;

"Report, Lord Marquis, Commander Lu said that Jinling Pier is not far away, please make preparations early."

As soon as Zhang Jinyu heard this, he knew that he had now entered the border of Jiangnan, and Jinling was right in front of him.

"Come here, call General Ningbian over."

"No, Lord Marquis."

The soldiers behind him went to the cabin to spread the news.

"Master Marquis, what are you going to do? It will probably be midnight when we arrive at the dock in Jinling. There are no longer those people at the dock."

Duan Hong said on the deck east of the command platform, feeling a little worried, after all, those people were in the dark.

The navy fleet headed south east of the canal.

"How far is the Jinling Guard Camp from the pier?"

Zhang Jinyu stood there, looked at the river, and continued to ask,

"It's not that far away. The Guards' camp is usually near the pier and is responsible for guarding the pier."

Ning Bian's words came from behind him. Zhang Jinyu turned around and saw that Ning Bian was fully dressed and her energy had recovered, so she felt relieved.

"Old Duan, when the Jinling naval fleet arrives at the pier of the Weijun water village, I will be responsible for controlling the Weijun camp. If there is no surprise, if there is an empty camp inside, then Yingbian Chengdong's fleet will dock forward.

I gathered ten thousand cavalry and followed him into the city overnight."

"No, Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis, can the gate of Jinling City be closed at night?"

Ning Bian reminded at the side whether Jinling City could be the capital of Dawu. Logically speaking, it should be heavily guarded, especially at night. It should not be much different from the capital city.

Zhang Jinyu smiled coldly, the journey was not difficult, but could Mr. Zhao, Mr. Zhao, rest for a long time?

"Is there a few of them? Eunuch Zhao must have rested for a long time, and it's time to go out for some activities. Jinling City will be entered tomorrow night, whether you enter or not, you must enter. Anyone who dares to block it will be punished directly for treason."

Cut it off."

"No, Lord Marquis, those birdmen will definitely not dare to do it. When the time comes, they will bring some siege attackers to scare them."

Ningbian felt that what the Marquis said was not true, so he might as well make more preparations and have some hindrances just in case.

Zhang Jinyu actually had no idea, because she didn’t know who was involved in Jiangnan, but she didn’t know that the government troops were just soldiers guarding the city. They had almost no fighting power and were just trying to scare the people. She was afraid that some people would be replaced and she would also

Have you seen that when the river was attacked, many soldiers from the wrong side rushed over at the risk of their lives? Where did those people come from?

"Ningbian told Wei Yong that if we guard the building and the ship is there, our own people will be killed without mercy if we don't deny it."

"No, Lord Marquis, don't worry, there will be a thousand brothers from the Pioneer Battalion on board this ship to ensure everything is safe."

"That's good, let's get ready."

After Zhang Jinyu finished speaking, he returned to the cabin and prepared to rest for a while.

It's already dark outside,

Are all the cities in the south of the Yangtze River brightly lit?
