Xia Qin explained seriously: "You have such a clear grasp of the intelligence here, and you don't need them to provide anything. If the evidence is conclusive, just solve it directly, and don't waste energy on it and pretend to be nice to them."

Mu Jinyu also echoed, "Xiao Yan is now the governor of Jinghai County. During the war, she can temporarily appoint a county magistrate. There is no point in keeping them."

Mo Ye nodded and agreed with them.

"The Zishi County Magistrate may meet with the Japanese pirate leader tonight."

When Huo Jinying heard what Mo Ye said, his eyes widened like bells. He couldn't believe it and asked, "Mr. Mo, you know all this?"

Hearing the name "Mr. Mo", Mo Ye felt guilty.

He glanced at Xia Qin and continued seriously, "They often meet each other. Today you came here but did not go to the county town in Jinghai County. The county magistrates of Zishi and Zhishui counties will naturally go to the Japanese pirates to discuss countermeasures."

Xia Qin glanced at Mo Ye and asked playfully, "Mr. Mo, you must know where they are meeting, right?"

Mo Ye looked at Xia Qin and lowered his voice: "They usually meet at the border between Zhishui County and Hailing County, which has been occupied by Japanese pirates."

After hearing this, Xia Qin just pondered for a moment, and a simple plan was formed.

"Kill them directly when they meet and set the scene for a fight between the two sides. This is the easiest way!" she said concisely.

"After we get rid of them, we will go directly into the city tomorrow and prepare to clear out the Japanese pirates nearby." Mu Jinyu added.

Mu Lie approved of the brother and sister's plan, but only warned: "The environment here is different from the previous frontiers. We are not familiar with it. You must be careful in your actions."

"Don't worry, Daddy," Xia Qin took the initiative to say, "I will lead the Night Owl Squad there tonight!"

Everyone was naturally confident in Xia Qin's team, but Mo Ye said, "You are too unfamiliar with this place, and you don't have the opportunity to observe the terrain during the day. Let my people handle this matter."

"Your people?" Xia Qin and Mu Jinyu looked at "Master Mo" curiously at the same time.

"I guess so. Let's go over there at 4 p.m. tonight and listen to what these Japanese pirates are going to do." Mo Ye turned around and called Ah Gui to his side, whispering something in his ear.

"Okay, Brother Mo."

Xia Qin and the others looked at Ah Gui who was leaving, and suddenly felt that he was more mysterious than they had imagined.

At the hour of You, Mo Ye, Xia Qin, Mu Jinyu and A Gui set out for Hailing County.

"Five miles east of here is the sea," Mo Ye said in a low voice, "half a year ago, the Japanese pirates attacked Jinghai County from both land and water. The defenders were attacked from both sides and suffered heavy losses, so they had no choice but to retreat."

"Are the Japanese pirates strong in combat?" Xia Qin always had the habit of knowing both himself and the enemy. "Are they strong enough?"

"It's similar to the border troops, but in recent years, Daxia's elite troops have been on the border. Those who fought against the Japanese pirates were local officials and new recruits, and there was a lack of unified command, so they lost more than they won."

Mu Jinyu thought of the Japanese pirates' movements in the past two months and couldn't help asking, "Yun Chen, the Japanese pirates didn't attack Zishi and Zhishui counties in the past two months. Is it because of the county magistrates of these two counties, or because of the cold weather?"

Mo Ye shook his head: "It's because of the 3,000 soldiers in the county now."

"Three thousand soldiers?" Mu Jinyu was even more puzzled. "Can these people resist the Japanese pirate army?"

"The Japanese pirates were scattered and plundered everywhere, and did not concentrate their forces to attack a single place. The reason they were able to quickly occupy a total of 13 cities in the two southeastern states in recent years was mainly because the imperial court did not organize any resistance."

"So..." Mu Jinyu stopped asking questions and thought about something with a serious expression.

"Japanese pirates, three Japanese and seven pirates," Mo Ye said helplessly, "The Japanese are actually a minority, most of them are pirates near our Great Xia country, and some of them are even Great Xia people under the banner of Japanese pirates."

Xia Qin had a gloomy face at this moment. The situation here was quite similar to the history she knew.

Sure enough, no matter in which time and space, these devils always covet the land of China.

"We're here. It's right here." Mo Ye pointed to a pine forest next to the village ahead.

The night in early spring was still a little chilly, so the four of them hid in the pine forest, quietly waiting for the Japanese pirates.

"Mo Ye, where are your people?" Xia Qin looked around and it seemed that there seemed to be no one else.

"It's already been prepared, don't worry."

Half an hour later, two teams of four people came from different directions of the woods.

"Yamamoto-kun," a middle-aged man in Daxia clothing said flatteringly, "You are really on time."

"Mr. Wu Gen, what's the matter this time? Have you dealt with those rioters?" The little leader of the Japanese pirates seemed a little impatient. I wonder if it was because County Magistrate Wu kept looking for him.

"Alas, Yamamoto-kun," Wu Gen's face was instantly filled with helplessness, "That Wu Baipeng is on guard against us everywhere, we don't have a chance to do anything!"

Another person beside Wu Gen also complained: "Yes, Yamamoto-kun, that Wu Baipeng is very troublesome. Why don't you send someone to kill them secretly, then we can relax."

"Wu Gen-kun, Ruan Gu-kun," Yamamoto stared at them and said, "You are right, but you also have to create opportunities for us."

The two sides were in a tug of war.

"That's right," Ruan Gu said with a flattering smile, "Mr. Yamamoto, as long as you kill some civilians in Zishi County or Zhishui County, he will rush over quickly. If you do this a few more times, he will definitely make mistakes."

When Yamamoto heard Ruan Gu's suggestion, he stared at him with an uncertain look.

This made Ruan Gu feel uneasy.

"Yamamoto-kun, is there something wrong?"

"Hahaha," Yamamoto Twenty-Eight suddenly laughed, "Master Ruan, you really shouldn't be a Daxia person."

"Hehe," Ruan Gu said with a lewd look on his face and a sly smile, "I don't want to either!"

Xia Qin and others were listening to their conversation not far away, and the anger and disgust in their eyes were almost exposing them.

"Coo coo!" Mo Ye sent out a signal.

Yamamoto and his companions were stunned when they heard the noise. Before they could react, several dark shadows fell over their heads.

A cold light flashed, and the strangely shaped hidden weapon had shot into the throats of several Daxia officials.

Without making any sound or making any reaction, the four Daxia officials were killed.

The martial arts are very weak.

Five men in black surrounded Yamamoto and his companions.

"Who are you?!" Yamamoto's eyes were full of fear.

Because the black-clothed man just used a Japanese hidden weapon. But the black-clothed man did not answer anything, and the only response to them was the long sword in his hand.

"Clang clang clang clang!"

The man in black took action.

Except for Yamamoto who held out for a few moves before dying, the others were killed almost instantly.

Looking at the eight corpses on the ground, the men in black did not leave immediately.

They picked up the Japanese swords in the hands of Yamamoto and others, and stabbed the bodies of Wu Gen and several Daxia officials several more times.

Blood slowly flowed out of Shang Wen's body.

After returning the Japanese swords to Yamamoto and the others, they left quietly.

The whole process takes less than a minute.

Xia Qin and Mu Jinyu looked at Mo Ye together. These men in black were much more terrifying than the assassins around Yin Ruoshui.

Seeing this scene, Xia Qin lamented that Mo Ye was not only careful in his actions, but also had his occupational disease acting up.

Although the men in black hacked at those officials in order to create a scene of mutual fighting, fortunately there were not so many high-tech detection instruments in ancient times, otherwise the fingerprints left by the men in black would have been easily detectable.

"Yeliang, let's go back. When the news comes out tomorrow, you can enter the city."

Seeing that the matter had been dealt with, Mo Ye looked at Xia Qin's little face that was red from the cold and said with heartache.

Xia Qin said, "Brother, you go back first. Mo Ye and I will go to the beach to enjoy the breeze."

Mu Jinyu glanced at Mo Ye and Xia Qin helplessly: "Well, then brother will go back first."

"Ah Gui, you should go back and rest too."

The two walked slowly eastward and soon felt the slight sea breeze, which was a bit humid.

"Mo Ye, I'm sorry."
