Chapter 291 Du Meng is captured, Jiang Chen's decision
Du Meng in the room had just fallen asleep, but years of habit made him put the knife under his head.
Just as Du Meng was about to fall into a deep sleep, a faint smell caught his attention.
After feeling that insignificant breath, Du Meng immediately sat up in shock.
With a vigilant look on his face, he pulled out the sword from under his pillow and carefully reached behind the door.
At the same time, several orphan killers have made all preparations.
I saw several orphan killers holding knives in their mouths.
He took out a piece of incense from his arms, poked a hole in the window, and slowly blew the incense in.
Thinking that the incense was about to take effect, several orphans cooperated in an orderly manner and kicked the door open.
As one person kicked the door open, the others quickly took out the Torrential Pear Blossom Needles from their waists.
Then, the two of them pressed the buckle of the Torrential Pear Blossom Needle facing the bed.
The other three held their Rain of Pear Blossoms with a vigilant look on their faces and aimed at other corners of the room.
After firing a burst of shots at the bed, the two orphans reached the bedside.
Looking at the empty bed, the two of them looked at each other and secretly thought that something was wrong.
But Du Meng, who had been patient for a long time, would never give them a chance to react!
Du Meng jumped out from the corner, picked up his sword and killed the three orphans .
Seeing this, the three men immediately pulled the trigger at Du Meng without hesitation.
“Swoosh—swoosh—”
After a burst of attacks like rain in the dense forest, Du Meng's figure appeared behind them.
Before the three men could come to their senses, Du Meng's sword slashed across their throats.
Seeing their companions being killed, the remaining two orphans did not feel a bit of sadness.
After dropping the Rain of Pear Blossom Needles in his hand, he took the long knife out of his mouth.
The two men, one on the left and one on the right, cooperated to kill Du Meng.
Facing the attacks from the two, Du Meng easily deflected them one by one with his sword.
The next second, the two had no time to continue their attack.
Their necks were slashed one by one by the sword in Du Meng's hand!
After dealing with the five orphan killers, Du Meng staggered and almost fell down.
Feeling his physical condition, Du Meng couldn't help but curse.
"Damn it, I'm afraid I'm going to fail here this time!"
It turns out that the incense was not ineffective!
Du Meng was just biting his tongue to force himself to stay awake.
And the torrential rain of pear blossom needles just released by the three orphan killers.
A few of them also pierced Du Meng's body. The tips of these needles were also coated with drugs that could make people lose consciousness.
Seeing that he was about to lose consciousness, Du Meng quickly mobilized his internal energy.
He mustered up his strength and temporarily suppressed the drug in his body.
Just then, Du Meng heard the wailing coming from outside the room.
Du Meng knew that these were the screams of the Huai'an guards he brought with him!
But at this moment, he could only hide this sorrow in his heart.
In his current state, he can't do anything!
He could only watch helplessly as the one hundred Huai'an guards who followed him died here.
At this time, the same scene was happening in nine other places in the northern border!
"Damn Jiang Chen, I should have thought of it earlier."
"Your Majesty, it seems that Du Meng cannot carry out your order this time..."
Du Meng gritted his teeth, tears streaming down from the corners of his eyes.
Finally, he could no longer suppress the drug in his body, and everything went black before his eyes.
The next second, he completely lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
…
"Master Yu, the rats in the restaurant have been dealt with."
"As for this big rat, I will take it back and give it to Lord Zhang."
As Bloody Hand spoke, he raised Du Meng in his hand towards Yu Yanyi.
Looking at the bodies being carried out of the restaurant, Yu Yanyi had no choice but to nod.
Afterwards, Bloody Hand took Du Meng and disappeared into the night.
When Du Meng opened his eyes again, he looked at the extremely dark cell.
After taking another look at his current situation, Du Meng shook his head helplessly.
At this time, all the meridians in his body were sealed with acupuncture.
He was tied up all over and there was no way for him to escape from here.
After realizing his current situation, Du Meng wanted to bite his tongue and commit suicide.
But Jiang Chen had already thought of a countermeasure for this.
Moreover, he also taught this countermeasure to the interrogators in the "Ant Hole".
That is to stuff a piece of rag directly into Du Meng's mouth.
Then use a rope to stuff the rag into Du Meng's mouth!
In this way, Du Meng had no way to commit suicide.
He can only wait to be questioned by the people in the "ant hole" like a lamb to be slaughtered .
But what the "Ant Hole" Governor Zhang Fei did not expect was that even if the imperial prison was used.
Du Meng didn't even reveal any clues about what Jiang Chen wanted to know!
Faced with Du Meng, who was determined to die rather than surrender, Zhang Fei was completely helpless.
The only choice was to temporarily detain Du Meng in the imperial prison and wait for Jiang Chen's decision.
After leaving the secret base of the "Ant Hole", Zhang Fei came to the county magistrate's mansion.
Seeing Zhang Fei coming, Yu Yanyi quickly put down the book in his hand.
"How's it going? Did he speak?!"
In response to Yan Yi's question, Zhang Fei shook his head helplessly.
"The other party is a tough guy. We tried everything but failed to get him to talk."
Yu Yanyi was not surprised to hear Zhang Fei's answer.
"Okay, we've done everything we could."
"Next, it's up to the lord and his men."
After saying that, Yu Yanyi sent someone to tell Jiang Chen via carrier pigeon that Du Meng had been captured.
At this time in the capital of Xu Song, the four armies from the northern border had successfully merged.
Du Mingyu, Han Zhong and Xiong Kehui looked at Jiang Chen who was sitting in the main seat with respect, waiting for his orders.
After a while, Jiang Chen raised his head and spoke to everyone.
"This time, the entire Xusong Kingdom, except for Menquan County, has fallen into my hands."
"But half of the Xu and Song kingdoms are still in the hands of Qi and Beiming."
"Next, do you think I should continue to go north and take back the occupied territory of Xu Song?"
After Jiang Chen finished speaking, he fell silent, waiting for everyone's response.
For a moment, none of the generals knew how to answer the question raised by Jiang Chen.
If they continue to move north, they will face the 200,000-strong coalition force of Qi and Northern Ming.
But if they stop here, there will be little point in their sending troops this time.
After hesitating for a while, Huo Xiang was the first to step forward.
"My lord, I think we should continue northward!"
"I have been waiting for a year, just for this day, right?!"
As soon as Prime Minister Huo said this, other generals also stood up and echoed him.
"Yes, my lord, General Xiang is right!"
"We've been holding it in for almost two years, we have to do something big!"
