Chapter 584 What is it?
Meishan Villa, Kuaiji, Juzhang County
After Wang Juntao had dinner, he walked around the villa and accidentally walked to the gate, where he was asked to go back by the gatekeeper.
"Boss Wang, it's dark and the roads are slippery. It's enough to digest the food for a while. Let's go back and rest."
Wang Juntao turned his sleeves and left.
Eat eat eat, sleep sleep sleep, he is not a pig!
Wang Juntao was really annoyed. Although he didn't like going out very much, liking it and being restricted from going out were two different things!
Xie Zhan can put him under house arrest, but can he do it faster? It's been so long, and he still hasn't been set free!
He returned to the yard with a gloomy face, and felt something strange as soon as he entered the house.
He looked in the direction of the strange scene and saw a young man sitting there.
He could feel that the visitor had no ill intentions, so Wang Juntao closed the door calmly.
"Who are you?"
"Qin Sheng, Lu Songli's husband."
Hearing this, Wang Juntao looked at him strangely. In fact, he only needed to say Qin Sheng's name, and he would know who he was. There was no need to explain it with "Lü Songli's husband".
Of course, Lu Songli's name is indeed known to everyone.
"Are you here to save me?" Wang Juntao reacted quickly.
Qin Sheng: "Yes, we are here to rescue you on the orders of the governor."
Wang Juntao's heart sank slightly. "Lin Shan brought the Cao Gang to join Pingzhou?"
Qin Sheng said frankly, "That's not the case. Rescuing you is our Pingzhou's sincerity."
At this moment, there were several rhythmic knocks on the door.
Qin Sheng asked him, "Boss Wang, shall we go?"
Wang Juntao hesitated. He was well aware of the consequences of his departure. Leaving Meishan Villa would be tantamount to disobeying the imperial court's orders...
Qin Sheng sneered, knowing exactly what he was hesitating about. "Old Boss Wang, think carefully. You've worked hard for most of your life, and yet you still have to endure this injustice? Besides, people always push for more..."
He muttered in his heart, "Could this old man have been locked up and become stupid? What's wrong with joining their Dapingzhou?"
"If you decide to stay, you have to get used to what happened this time." After saying that, Qin Sheng raised his leg and was about to leave. After all, he had been here, and Pingzhou had already expressed their sincerity, so there was no need to force it.
Wang Juntao's heart trembled. He couldn't get used to such things.
He knew that the other party was right. If this kind of thing happens once, it will happen again. If they are caught by the court this time, the court will not take the Cao Gang seriously next time!
It would be fine if he had no choice, but if he still wronged himself even though he had a choice, then he is a masochist!
"I'll go with you!" He no longer hesitated and quickly followed Qin Sheng.
As soon as they left, the person waiting outside immediately said, "Sixth Master, this way!"
…
The news that Wang Juntao was rescued from Meishan Villa was quickly reported to Xie Zhan.
"Do you know who rescued Wang Juntao?"
"The man was wearing a veil, so we couldn't see his face clearly, but our people made inquiries all the way from Meishan Villa to the dock and gathered some information."
Based on the information his subordinates collected from passersby, Xie Zhan slowly wrote two words on the bottom of the paper - Qin Sheng!
Xie Zhan thought, this is right.
He said that among the four brothers of the Qin family, it was impossible that Qin Zhao was the only one who went to the East China Sea.
After all, there is no war in Pingzhou, and the only thing needed at the moment is defense. Why is it necessary for Qin Heng, Qin Yan, and Qin Sheng to stay in Pingzhou at the same time?
Therefore, Qin Heng and Qin Yan stayed in Pingzhou, while Qin Zhao and Qin Sheng came to Donghai. This distribution was reasonable.
This time, he could be said to have had a deliberate plan but it was a pity that after all his efforts, he still failed to stop them.
Thinking about Qin Sheng's skills, Xie Zhan also knew that this person was not someone that ordinary people could keep.
Putting this aside, Xie Zhan asked about the Langchao Gang.
"Reporting to the Grand Commander, Ran Shanlong is already taking action."
Ran Shanlong is the leader of the Wave Gang, a water-based gang second only to the Cao Gang in strength.
Xie Zhan has long known that Pingzhou is very good at winning people's hearts. The Cao Gang and Pingzhou have cooperated a lot. If the court has to choose between Pingzhou, it is very likely that it will lean towards Pingzhou.
In addition, his act of placing Wang Juntao under house arrest may further push the Cao Gang towards Pingzhou.
But Xie Zhan knew very well that if he didn't do this, he would not be able to cut off the food supply of the Pingzhou expeditionary force.
So, he simply abandoned the Cao Gang and secretly supported the Langchao Gang, trying to replace it.
At this moment, his clerk hurried in, "Grand Commander, a secret memorial from the court!"
Xie Zhan took it, opened it and frowned slightly, but after reading it, he just remained silent.
He did not intend to heed the Emperor's order to send his troops north to support Yang Yingqin. If he did so, all his plans in the East China Sea would be in vain.
Qin Sheng and his group escorted Wang Juntao to Juzhang Wharf and quickly found the Cao Gang's pick-up person.
The man said quickly when he saw them, "Boss, come up quickly! The Langchao Gang is attacking the Cao Gang! The elders inside the gang are rebelling against them, and the two sides are working together. The deputy boss is leading his brothers to resist the enemy. We need to hurry to Deputy Boss Lin."
Wang Juntao's face changed when he heard this. "Xiang Zhanyuan is such a traitor!"
Xiang Zhanyuan was considered the third in command of the Cao Gang. Upon hearing that he had defected, Wang Juntao was extremely worried.
Qin Sheng brought his brothers onto the boat, "Let's go help!"
Qin Sheng thought, as expected, Xie Zhan had planned this all along! Their rescue must have triggered something.
Wang Juntao shouted, "Set sail!"
The boat Qin Sheng and Wang Juntao were on sped towards Lin Shan.
Lin Shan slashed at the enemy with his sword, and the enemy fell into the water. He took advantage of the gap and gasped, "Godfather, you are back!"
Qin Sheng and Wang Juntao boarded the big ship where Lin Shan was, and Qin Sheng immediately brought people forward to help.
Lin Shan got a chance to catch his breath.
Wang Juntao asked Lin Shan, "How is it?"
"Thanks to his reminder." Lin Shan raised his chin towards Qin Sheng and continued, "It's a pity that the child is incompetent."
Lin Shan had been alerted by Qin Sheng and had been on guard against external enemies, but not internal ones. Now their granary had been burned down by Xiang Zhanyuan's men, and they had only managed to snatch out a portion of the food.
Qin Sheng was agile and quickly repelled the enemies around him.
He looked around and saw that both sides were fighting, but the situation on Lin Shan's side was very bad.
Xiang Zhanyuan rebelled and took away a quarter of the Cao Gang.
Now this part of the crew and sailors have merged with the Wave Gang, so that both sides are evenly matched in terms of ships and crews.
But Qin Sheng noticed that there were many exhausted Cao Gang members lying on the deck on their side, obviously they had been infected.
The brothers of the Cao Gang lay down, but that didn't stop them from cursing.
"That damn Xiang Zhanyuan, just go away, why are you causing trouble for us?!"
"Well, Xiang Zhanyuan, that evil-hearted fellow, only gave us a laxative instead of poison. Just be thankful!"
Qin Sheng estimated the strength of both sides and had to admit that as one side gained strength while the other lost, the Cao Gang would gradually lose.
Just then, another wave of enemies attacked.
Seeing this, Lin Shan's eyes turned red. "Okay, okay, Ran Shanlong and Xiang Zhanyuan are trying to kill them while they're sick, right? Come on then!" He was about to step forward with a knife in hand.
Qin Sheng quickly grabbed the man and made a decisive suggestion to Wang Juntao and Lin Shan, "Two gang leaders, I suggest that we sail the ship to the Xuzhou Dongtai County Pier!"
Wang Juntao and Lin Shan exchanged a glance and said, "Listen to him!"
At this time, a special drum and horn sounded, and the big ship where Qin Sheng, Wang Juntao and Lin Shan were located immediately rushed to the northwest.
The rest of the ships followed in succession, and some escorted the large ship on both sides.
Ran Shanlong, Xiang Zhanyuan and their ships were located due north, with the original intention of stopping the Cao Gang's ships from heading north. When they saw them change direction, they looked at each other in surprise.
"Do you want to chase her?"
"Catch up!"
"Hang this on the big ship!" Qin Sheng threw out a bundle.
"What is it?" Lin Shan took it subconsciously.
When he opened it, he found that it was the flag of Pingzhou!
"Hang it up, hang it up!"
Makino took the time to take a quick look, and the corners of his mouth twitched. What were they carrying with them?
