Chapter 1515: Planning a big deal in the middle of the night (Part 2)
In the Zhang family’s house, the aroma of wine and meat fills the sky, and Japanese pirates dance with demons in their crotches.
In the courtyard, the two big black pigs that used to be lively and energetic have their final destination. One is stewed in a big pot, and the aroma of meat is floating; the other is put on the bonfire and rotates, ticking and sizzling. Nourishing oil. Sheep, chickens, ducks and geese all have their own destinations, either stewed in the pot with the big black pig or roasted on the fire.
Two Japanese pirates wearing only crotch pants were performing sumo wrestling in the courtyard. The other Japanese pirates were sitting in a circle, drinking and eating meat, or heckled and took out a handful of gold and silver jewelry to bet on one of the sumo wrestlers, or Banging the chopsticks and singing Japanese songs, it was really fun and exciting.
If Matsuura Sanbanro had not always been cautious and insisted on not allowing Japanese pirates to drink too much, and each Japanese pirate could only drink a bowl of wine at most with each meal, these Japanese pirates would have been drunk and unconscious. .
Although they were not allowed to drink alcohol, they could eat meat freely, which appeased the Japanese pirates. Their life in the Japanese country was not so good before. It was good to be able to eat meat once a month. How could they not eat meat all the time like now? They still ate openly. The biggest manifestation is that in the days after landing in the Ming Dynasty, although there were constant battles every day and they were running and killing every day, the bodies of these Japanese pirates were getting stronger and stronger, and each of them had the body of a tiger or a wolf. , looks particularly oppressive.
Setting an example by example, Nabeshima drank a full bowl of wine and then threw the bowl to the ground, showing that he would never drink too much. Matsuura Sanbanro didn't drink even a drop of wine. Of course, neither of them eat less meat, and one can eat more than the other.
After eating and drinking, the Japanese pirates came again and rested in Zhangzhai as if no one else was around.
Of course, the always cautious Matsuura Sanbanro still arranged for five Japanese to be on guard duty at night.
Not long after, bursts of snoring could be heard in the Zhang family's courtyard, and all the resting Japanese pirates fell asleep.
The five Japanese pirates who were on duty at night were probably too full. People tend to get sleepy when they are full, and they were no exception.
The night watch was okay at first, they all did their duty, but after half an hour, their eyelids started to fight, but they could still force themselves to stay up, but after an hour, they Gradually I couldn't hold on any longer. I was so sleepy that I could only lean on the wall to support my body.
After a while, three Japanese pirates on night duty leaned against the wall and fell asleep, snoring gradually.
The remaining two Japanese pirates were also nodding their heads. It seemed that they would fall asleep sooner or later.
Every night comes to the center.
While the Zhang family's residence was filled with snores, the Zhejiang Army's temporary camp under Yingtian City was extremely quiet.
If anyone checks, they will find that the Zhejiang army has already been decamped.
Zhe Jun finished his meal early and rested his spirits. Late at night, just before midnight, Zhe Jun got up quietly and put on his armour, under the cover of night. , leaving the camp and sneaking to the southeast.
The Zhejiang soldiers walked quickly with branches in their mouths. Except for the deep footsteps, there was no sound at all.
"Dadao, take two agile and alert people to investigate first. See where the Japanese pirates have settled and what the situation is like. Remember, you must be careful and careful, and don't alert the snake. Although we have already done it in advance. Arrangements have been made, but it is inevitable that things will not go as planned, so be careful. ”
Zhu Ping'an stopped Liu Dadao before setting off and asked him to take people to investigate first to find out the situation of the Japanese pirates.
Liu Dadao took the order and selected two agile men, put on night clothes, and went to the southeast to explore first.
In about half an hour, Liu Dadao and the others came back from their investigation, and reported back to Zhu Pingan with excitement, "Sir, we have investigated clearly, hey, the Japanese pirates are in Zhangjiazhai. Everything in the family courtyard was under the master's arrangement. We saw the Zhang family courtyard brightly lit two miles away. These Japanese pirates had no intention of hiding anything. They were really confident! The peacock tail really worked, and the Japanese pirates were stunned. We heard the Japanese pirates snoring from a long distance away. The Japanese pirates scattered five spies outside, three of them were lying on the wall and snoring, and two were leaning against the wall. He didn't move, he was probably asleep. We didn't dare to get too close for fear of disturbing the situation."
"Very good." Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but smile after listening to Liu Dadao's report.
Peacock Tail is a medicine that Zhu Pingan sent people to get from Wuxi Manmiao and brought back together with the secret knife-creating medicine.
Peacock Tail is not a peacock's tail. It is a medicinal herb picked in the mountains by Wuxi Man Miao Village. It is shaped like a peacock's tail, hence the name Peacock Tail. Peacock tail is not poisonous, it is not poisonous, but it can help you sleep and has the effect of anesthetizing the nerves. Wuxi Manmiao collected peacock tails, dried them, ground them into powder, and stored them for later use. Peacock tail powder can be dissolved in water or wine. It is colorless and odorless. Wuxi Manmiao use it as a sleeping pill. They usually give it to people in the village after they are injured to relieve pain. This is a chronic sleeping pill that slowly develops its effects, causing people to slowly lose consciousness and finally fall asleep, just like natural sleep entering a deep sleep. People who don’t know about peacock tail will not notice it at all after being infected. Generally, The effect of the medicine will be fully exerted in about an hour, and its properties are three times more powerful than the Mongolian sweat medicine necessary for murder and arson.
Of course, Mongolian sweat medicine is a fast-acting medicine, and it will fall down as soon as you drink it. Peacock Tail is a chronic medicine, and it takes about an hour for its medicinal properties to be fully exerted.
After Peacock Tail exerts its medicinal properties, it will take a long time to wake up, ranging from half a day to a day depending on your physical condition. If you want to wake up early, you can take "Zhao Cao" for immediate effect. It is also an herb cultivated in Miao Village. It usually grows next to the peacock's tail and is regarded as the antidote to the peacock's tail.
Because Zhu Ping'an knew the pharmacology of peacock tail, he specially ordered a batch of it from Wuxi Manmiao to be used as a weapon to save people and yin people. It is also a gift specially prepared for the Japanese pirates.
Zhu Pingan carefully studied the behavior of the Shangyu Japanese pirates after they landed in the Ming Dynasty, and found that this group of Japanese pirates was treacherous and bold, cautious and arrogant. This group of Japanese pirates often killed people and set fires without fear of being pursued and killed by the Ming army.
For example, after this group of Japanese pirates landed in Shangyu, they burned, killed and looted in Funing Town. They refused to escape and arrogantly used the three-story wooden building of the home of Zhang Yuanwai, the richest man in Funing Town, as a temporary residence, eating, drinking and resting. The same is true in Jixi County, Jingde County and other places. After burning, killing and looting, they ate, drank and rested on the spot or nearby as if no one was around.
With few exceptions.
However, although the Japanese pirates are arrogant, they are also more cautious. Judging from the Tang newspaper and various news, although the Japanese pirates eat and drink heavily, their drinking is relatively controlled, and the amount of alcohol consumed each time is not much. According to the case You can tell by the number of wine jars in the place.
According to the characteristics of the Japanese pirates in Shangyu, Zhu Pingan specially prepared a big gift for them.
When troops were dispatched from the Taohuaji military camp to rescue Ying Tian, Zhu Ping'an specially ordered a large purchase in Taohuaji. Food, bacon, bacon, wine, etc. were all added with peacock tail, which was sufficient. The modified wooden cart pulled thirty carts.
Based on historical data and research on Japanese pirates, Zhu Pingan concluded that the Japanese pirates must go southeast when they evacuate from Yingtian.
So, in advance, people secretly placed these flavored foods in Guocun, Niucun, Zhangjiazhai, Erdaohe, Taichangzhuang and other villages and towns in the southeast of Yingtian. In an upright and prosperous home.
Just in case, Zhu Pingan also ordered peacock tail powder to be poured into the wells of these families. Just wait until the matter is over, then pour the "early draft" powder into the well to detoxify, and there is no need to worry about people being infected in the future. (End of this chapter)
