In the woods not far away, a group of people were lying on the ground.
Zhao Lie held up the telescope and whispered, "Found it! The master is on the boat!"
When the brothers beside him heard him talking, they all came forward and whispered, "Are you sure it's the master? What's the situation?"
"Nothing, the master seems to be hanging out with others again."
"Then shall we fight or not? The flying thunder cannons are ready!"
"Wait a minute, the master should know we are here. Wait for the signal from him... Tie Ge should still be in the cabin. What if he gets killed by a cannon?" Zhao Lie felt relieved when he saw Fang Zheng was safe. He made arrangements, "Let the brothers rest where they are. Twenty people will keep watch and the others will go to sleep. We will act tomorrow."
.........
Fang Zheng didn't sleep all night.
Seeing that the King of Wu allowed him to move freely on the boat, he no longer cared about other people's eyes.
I walked around the entire ship twice in one night and memorized its general layout.
He got up early in the morning and accompanied the King of Wu for breakfast, during which the two of them naturally had a very pleasant conversation.
After the meal, Fang Zheng went straight to the room where Zhou Tie was imprisoned.
The King of Wu was obviously worried about Zhou Tie. He was carrying so many weapons that they would definitely be searched, so he could not let such a person wander around.
Fang Zheng knew it very well, so he never mentioned releasing Zhou Tie to King Wu.
Accompanied by the guards, the door was opened, and the first thing they saw was Zhou Tie, who was stripped naked... He was curled up at the foot of the bed with an expressionless face.
When he saw Fang Zheng coming, his eyes rolled and then he buried his head in his knees again.
Fang Zheng looked at the guards on his left and right and said, "You guys go out. I need to talk to him alone."
"No!" the guard replied coldly.
"If you don't leave, I will tell His Majesty that you abused me."
The two guards' eyelids twitched twice and they stared straight ahead, unmoved.
Bitch! You still want to deceive us? You treat us like dogs again!
Seeing that the two were silent, Fang Zheng quickly walked towards them.
Bang bang, two punches!
One of them punched them in the face! The two were stunned by this sudden punch!
He instinctively drew out his sword and glared at Fang Zhengyi.
Fang Zhengyi had a look on his face that looked like he deserved a beating. He stuck his head out and shouted, "Chop it off! You dare not chop it off?"
"It's okay if you don't leave. If you don't leave, I will continue to beat you. If you dare to fight back, I will tell His Majesty that you abused me!"
"you!!"
"What do you mean? Are you going out or not?"
The two guards clenched their knife handles, looked at each other, and said with suppressed anger: "I'll give you one incense stick of time, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
"I can talk as long as I want? Are you teaching me how to do things? Get lost!" Fang Zheng started to curse: "If you are not convinced, you can go and complain to His Majesty!"
The guard had no choice but to leave angrily, and before closing the door, he secretly glared at Fang Zheng.
There were only two people left in the room. Zhou Tie slowly raised his head and whispered, "Master, our people are here."
"How did you get stripped naked? How did you get raped?"
Zhou Tie's old face slowly lengthened: "Master, let's talk business... Our people are here, we have to find a way to escape from here."
"What do you have in mind?" Fang Zhengyi asked.
"Master, do you know the structure of this ship? How to escape from this room? What is the defense situation outside the ship? How many soldiers are there in total?" Zhou Tie looked serious.
"Yes, there is a forest not far from the ship. The defense outside the ship is not tight. Most people are basically on the ship. There are only four or five people on the shore guarding the ship. They also have horses. There are archers on the deck. Well... According to the King of Wu, there are probably more than 3,000 soldiers on the three ships. But I think it is far more than that. With the boatmen and other miscellaneous people, I am afraid the number will be even higher."
Zhou Tie frowned and thought, then said after a while: "If our people come to rescue, they should use flying thunder cannons. But they won't use it rashly if they are not sure of our position. They can only wait for me to go out and command them."
"Before that, I have to ask you to stay on the boat for a while. I will charge out first, and you try to find a safe place to avoid the bombardment! The Flying Thunder Cannon is very powerful and will surely temporarily suppress them. Take this opportunity to find a way to change into a guard uniform and escape from the boat in the chaos. We will send someone to pick you up."
"Three thousand people... Although we only have less than two hundred people, once we enter the mountain, we can retreat calmly with our field combat capabilities."
"Are you sure?" The difference in the number of people was too big, and Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but feel nervous.
"Sure! Master, you have to believe in my strength. I trained all the soldiers. I dare say that the soldiers in Taoyuan County can fight ten of them with one! They are the elite among the elites in any military camp in Dajing! I have been a soldier for half my life, so my vision will never be wrong!"
Zhou Tie was full of confidence. No one knew Taoyuan soldiers better than him. It cost a huge cost to train each one.
The carefully selected seedlings, the luxurious unlimited meat supply, the crazy training state, and the shocking gunpowder weapons, all of them have the potential to be fierce generals! Although the actual combat experience is not enough, the foundation is already so strong that it cannot be improved!
"A lifetime of military service? Didn't you only lose one battle?" Fang Zhengyi wondered.
When Zhou Tie heard this, he instantly became as devastated as if he had lost his parents and leaned against the wall with no desire to live.
"Say something!"
"I'm going to die here."
Seeing that he was starting to act badly, Fang Zheng went up and kicked him: "Don't play dead! How are you going to get out? Besides, there are archers up there!"
"I'll charge out from here first. The passages inside the ship should be narrow, so it won't be a big problem. After I charge out, I'll grab a horse and go into the woods to join our people, and then prepare to fire... As for the archers, just try your luck. If I die outside, my brothers will probably take action immediately. This is the only way. Anyway, you just need to find a place to hide."
"No... this is too dangerous." Fang Zheng frowned deeply.
You don't have to use such a risky method. It's not worth it to die in vain.
"Master! Now that things have come to this, this is the best solution! You must trust my skills and don't worry about my safety!" Zhou Tie advised.
Fang Zheng stared at Zhou Tie suspiciously, then sighed and slowly took off his coat.
"Don't look at me like that! I'm much stronger than Zhang Biao. He has one bone and I have two bones... Hey? Master, what are you doing?"
"Put on my soft armor, and remember to grab the helmet of the guard at the door. It will be safer if you protect your upper body."
Although he didn't bring any weapons, he was still wearing protective gear.
Giving it to Zhou Tie could at least help save his life.
Facing the soft armor handed over, Zhou Tie decisively pushed it back and said, "No, what if something happens to you?"
"Take it, don't talk nonsense, I am useful to King Wu, he dare not kill me."
Zhou Tie no longer refused after hearing this, and took the soft armor and stuffed it under his buttocks...
"When are you going to take action?" Fang Zheng asked.
"We'll act later after you leave. I'll reunite with our people as soon as I can after I escape, and then we'll bombard them right away!"
Fang Zheng thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, I'll find a way to help you attract the guards outside. Use the bird whistle to give me a signal before you fire."
"Let me tell you the escape route first. Go out of the door, turn left and take fifty steps..."
