Chapter 120: Life and Death Fight
……
At the same time, Zhao Fengzheng led the Jinyiwei to search passing ships. The He family was the leader of Linhai County's shipping industry. Although other families were also involved in this industry, their scale was ultimately not comparable to the He family.
Therefore, most families involved in this industry adopt the model of cooperation with the He family.
Linhai County originally had a very large scale of maritime transportation industry in the coastal area. Even though this industry was the foundation of the He family, it could not cover everything.
Therefore, He Yun, the current head of the He family, advocates giving a share of the pie to other families, but these families must follow the lead of the He family in business matters.
If this is the case, there is no guarantee that similar situations will occur on the ships of other families as on the He Yun family.
More than 10,000 Jinyiwei surrounded the entire dock, making it impossible to get in or out.
"kill……"
Suddenly, a shout came from behind them, and in an instant hundreds of black figures landed outside the deck of the bow.
"You are so bold! How dare you openly attack the Jinyiwei?"
In the cover of night, the He family's killers sneaked around like ghosts, their movements as fast as lightning.
The wind was howling, the sound of clashing swords echoed throughout the harbor, and the deck was instantly dyed red with blood. The Jinyiwei and the disciples of the He family started a life-and-death struggle.
"If you want to live, put down your weapons immediately."
"Since we're here, we don't want to go back alive."
Zhao Feng was the first to fight against the one with the highest martial arts skills, and the other Jinyiwei members of Honglian also fought a desperate battle.
The killers sent by the He family this time were extremely powerful. Amidst the flash of swords and the shadow of sabers, dozens of Jinyiwei died heroically. Their bodies fell powerlessly on the deck as if they were torn cloth.
"Your Excellency, the brothers can no longer bear this."
One of the burly men frowned slightly, and at this time his legs and feet were seriously injured.
"Everyone, hold on a little longer and fight for the court."
Zhao Feng knew in his heart that the reason why the country dared to kill was simply to get rid of the Japanese pirates' spies.
But it's too late to take action now.
Zhao Feng naturally refused to be outdone, and immediately mobilized the heroic spirits in the Human Emperor Banner to engage in a desperate battle with the He family's killers.
As time went on, the situation quietly reversed.
Xu Feng's eyes burned with anger like a ruthless hunter. His hand gripped the hilt of the knife tightly, and the blade shone with a cold light.
In an instant, Zhao Feng's strength exploded, and the masters of the He family were caught off guard and gradually defeated.
"Butler, we can't hold on any longer. If this continues, I'm afraid all of us brothers will be finished."
Although the He family's housekeeper was unwilling, he could do nothing about it as things had come to this point.
"Brothers, hold on a little longer. Otherwise, even if we go back now, we'll probably die."
The head of the family, He Yun, is a ruthless person. If he fails to complete the task, he will surely die when he returns, and it is even very likely that the old and young in the family will be implicated.
Even if I die today, I would rather die at the hands of the Embroidered Uniform Guards. This way, I can still be considered working for the He family. I only hope that the He family father and son can consider their friendship and take care of their family.
"I've seen stupid people, but I've never seen anyone as stupid as you."
The corners of Zhao Feng's mouth rose slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile.
The He family father and son only put profit first. If they really cared about the lives of these people, how could they be so cruel?
But since that was the case, he would completely wipe out these killers.
Zhao Feng waved the imperial banner again, and in an instant the Jinyiwei's strength exploded again. After a life-and-death struggle, none of the He family killers who came to hijack the ship survived.
"Sir, what should we do with these spies from the Japanese pirate country?"
A pair of Jinyiwei escorted dozens of spies from the Japanese pirate country to Zhao Feng.
"These people are the best evidence of the He family's treason. They must be escorted to our government office."
"As ordered."
As long as we have these evidences at hand, even if we completely eliminate the He family now, I believe some people in the court will have nothing to say.
"Sir, I believe this matter cannot be rushed. We should first investigate the He family's mastermind. Of course, more importantly, it would be best if we could uproot the court's patrons."
After hearing this, Zhao Feng nodded slightly.
The forces in the court are complicated, and many senior officials in the court have close interests with the He family.
If we cannot eradicate the problem completely this time, once these interest networks unite, the other party will continue to attack us, and we may not be able to withstand it.
"Master Qianhu, what should we do next?"
Zhao Feng lowered his head and thought for a moment, then immediately went to the Jinyiwei Command Headquarters to ask for orders from Commander Li Chengfeng.
"Sir Li, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us, the Jinyiwei."
Li Chengfeng was shocked when he heard that Zhao Feng had seized the He family's salt smuggling ship and found dozens of Japanese pirates' stalls on it.
People have long thought that the He family is likely to collude with the Japanese pirates, and it is nothing more than an exchange of economic interests, but such a blatant act of treason is truly outrageous.
"Since the evidence is conclusive, we must completely wipe out the He family. Even their supporters in the court will be in danger if they learn that the He family dared to bring Japanese pirates and spies into the country."
Li Chengfeng's face was gloomy. "Zhao Feng, I'll leave this matter to you. If you do it well, I will personally commend you to the emperor."
"Thank you for your trust, sir."
With Li Chengfeng's support, Zhao Feng's subsequent actions were undoubtedly much smoother.
After coming out of the residence of Jinyiwei Commander Li Chengfeng, Zhao Feng immediately summoned all his men to go to the He family.
"Come here, the evidence of the He family's betrayal is now solid. Everyone, go to the He family and capture everyone in the He family. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy."
"As ordered."
As Xu Feng's order came down like a violent storm, the entire Linhai City seemed to be caught in a huge whirlpool in an instant.
The Jinyiwei were like ghosts in the night, moving silently through the streets. Their footsteps were like thunder, breaking the tranquility of the past.
Under the cover of night, they gradually approached every property of the He family, each of them like a wolf or a tiger, determined to get it.
The He family's guards felt unprecedented pressure and embarrassment in this sudden attack, and the swords in their hands seemed to become extremely heavy.
The He family had numerous businesses under their name, and Zhao Feng had already made a detailed plan using a map. However, in just an hour, the Jinyiwei had successfully taken over all of the He family's businesses in Linhai County.
As for the He Mansion, Honglian led his men to capture it as soon as Zhao Feng's order was issued.
The Jinyiwei poured into the He family like a tide, blocking every passage, and their iron-like hands ruthlessly pinched the He family's lifeline.
