Chapter 467: Please enter the ward
The last assassin was killed by the Gong Wei army and was more than ten steps away from the carriage. In the galloping road, the bamboo forest was full of corpses, blood gathered into one by one, winding on the galloping road, and outlining a miserable scene wherever he passed. Wen Fangda looked at the corpses all over the ground with lingering fear, most of them were assassins, and many palace guards were left here forever. The assassin's fearlessness made Wen Fangda still feel trembling at this time. Knowing that he could not do anything, he still rushed forward one after another until he died.
"General Wen!" The man who rushed out of the carriage walked to Wen Guangda, his voice sharp, and he was like a rooster talking, "Don't you feel strange?"
Wen Fangda nodded, "These assassins are all blood brave men, but there are no masters, which is indeed a bit strange!" He squatted and picked up the weapons thrown by the assassin.
"Five-shot crossbows, stainless steel grooved daggers, this is the standard equipment of the Dingzhou Statistical Investigation Department's special service, and the four-shot eight-cow crossbows on the ship, which are also unique to Dingzhou, Eunuch Huang, are these people from Dingzhou Statistical Investigation Department?" Wen Fada said.
Eunuch Huang squatted down and shook his head, "It may not be." He tore open the corpse's coat with a slight sound and said, "General Wen, please look at these people's underwear." He tore several utensils in a row, and the underwear of these people were woven in various ways, basically woven in silk thread.
Wen Guangda looked up at Eunuch Huang in confusion.
"When Commander Yuan left, he talked to me about some of the information he collected, and once lamented that Li Qing was so devoted to the soldiers under his command. General Wen, do you know the cotton cloth that just emerged in the Central Plains?" Eunuch Huang stood up.
"Cotton cloth? I know, it seems to be a new crop woven fabric cultivated in Dingzhou. It is said to be expensive and most people can't afford it." Wen Guangda didn't know what it had to do with what was happening in front of him.
"The underwear of the special service of the Dingzhou Statistical Investigation Department is made of this cotton cloth, with the same style and a tone. Look at these people, they are all kinds of, and they are definitely not the special service of the Statistical Investigation Department. Besides, if it is the Statistical Investigation Department, then their commander Wang Qi is there, and if it is them, where is the female guard with extremely high martial arts around Qingfeng? If they are both here today, will there be some fighting in this battle? We will never win so easily."
"But these weapons?"
"Weapons do not mean anything. It is possible that these people bought them from Dingzhou through some channels, or that Dingzhou was involved in this matter, but it is limited to providing them with weapons and intelligence. According to Commander Yuan, Qingfeng, who planned it and then acted, attaches the most importance to details. I don't think such a reckless and arrogant assassination was planned by him and her."
"My father-in-law believes?"
"It is very likely that I came from the south, but I had a bit of Zhongziqi's style. In order to achieve my goal, I will do anything to achieve my goal!"
"Zhong Ziqi is not a stupid person. He knows that doing so will definitely not be able to achieve his goal."
"Of course, he knew that this place would definitely not be successful. His purpose was not to succeed in one fell swoop. I'm afraid the real killer move is still ahead!"
Wen Guangda showed a nervous look on his face. "Then his actions here must have a deep meaning."
"Yes, General Wen, look, when is it now?"
Wen Guangda looked up at the sun and suddenly realized, "Erlong Mountain! We continue to rush, and it will be dark when we reach Erlong Mountain. Where are they really killing!"
"Yes, I think Zhong Ziqi's main force, as well as his general Xu Siyu, and Zhou Yu, who was not in the eyes of the dragon, were all waiting for us!"
"Eunuch Huang, what should we do?"
Eunuch Huang smiled gloomyly, "Since we guessed what the other party wanted to do, why should we follow their steps? We walked by ourselves, General Wen, dozens of miles ahead, isn't there a place called Caoji Town? We won't leave today!"
Caoji Town only gathered hundreds of families, but there were more than ten inns, but there were no other. It was just because there were more than ten miles ahead of him. In the early years, there were several large insects on the mountain, which often harmed passers-by. Therefore, the *** who wanted to pass Erlong Mountain did not dare to cross Erlong Mountain overnight. Most of them lived here. After gathering a group of people, they were brave enough to dare to climb over him. Later, the big insect disappeared and disappeared, but a group of bandits gathered here. These people were much more terrifying than those big insects. Once the big insects were full, they were full.
, they will not come out to harm people again, but these people are unwilling to refuse. A typical person who plucks the hair by the geese, even the iron rooster will be squeezed out a few drops of oil by them. When they resist, they will start killing. Therefore, even if the people who have fought here gathered, they will not dare to go there. They have to hire bodyguards or pay more than a hundred officers and soldiers in the town to escort it. In this way, Caoji Town has been prosperous for a while. Later, this group of bandits heard that they participated in the rebels of Lu Xiaobo and Zhang Wei, and they no longer found where they were. Caoji Town slowly fell down.
Several miles outside the town, Wen Guangda and others tightly protected the remaining carriage. The unlucky magistrate was unfortunately sitting in the second carriage at that time. He got six or seven eight-ox crossbows in a row and knocked down the carriage, and he was burping on the spot.
After waiting for about half an hour, several palace guards had already rushed over with a team of officers and soldiers. The first one was the leader of the garrison in the town and a Yingyang Captain.
Seeing Wen Guangda, the Yingyang Captain immediately pushed Jinshan, fell to the jade pillar, knelt on the ground, and knocked several times, "Wu Guo, the captain of Yingyang Captain of Caoji Town, has met the general!"
Wen Guangda frowned. Although the man in front of him was wearing armor, he had a big belly. I really don’t know how he put the armor in. Seeing his red face, he smelled a pungent smell of alcohol again, and he felt even more unhappy. Looking at the group of soldiers behind him, they were all blushing and red-eared, and obviously they had drunk a lot of alcohol.
"How long have you been in this town?" Wen Guangda raised his hand and signaled him to stand up.
"Go back to the general, I have been here for almost a year!" Wu Guo was very excited. The big man from the capital was the palace guards. If he curled up with him, he would have a bright future.
"Well! Is there anyone in the town who has been here during this period?"
Wu Guo was stunned, thought for a while, and said, "General, this Caoji Town is the only way to pass Erlong Mountain. Many people pass by here every day. Although it is not as good as before, there are always hundreds of people every day."
"Are there so many people every day?" Wen Guangda asked.
"Yes, general, but there are not so many today. I left a group earlier and had to cross Erlong Mountain before dark. Later, three or five more people came. At this time, I will definitely not leave."
Looking at the wine captain, Wen Guangda narrowed his eyes, "How do you know so clearly?"
Wu Guo's face turned redder and she whispered: "General, the villain is afraid that a traitor will sneak in, so he set up two cards on the necessary road to the town to check the people passing by."
Wen Guangda suddenly realized that this kid set up a card to extort money. No wonder he knew so well how many people entered the town and how many people left every day? No wonder he lived a comfortable life and drank like Guan Gong in broad daylight, but now he was not in the mood to meddle in these little things and was too lazy to pay attention to such people.
"Go into the town and arrange the best inn for us."
"Yes, yes, general, I have received the notification from these adults and have sent people to take care of this matter. When the general enters the town, the inn should have everything ready."
"All the original guests in that inn are invited out, and we pay double the price to compensate them."
Wu Guo said: "If the general wants to live, of course they have to give way to the general. This is their honor. What else can I compensate? General, don't worry, I have driven him to another inn and sent someone to look at them."
Wen Guangda glanced at him, "This inn usually gives you a lot of benefits, right?"
Wu Guo blushed and quickly defended: "No, General, this inn is indeed the best here, and I know that the generals are escorting very important people. The terrain of this inn is very good, very good, and easy to be wary. With a little arrangement, a fly can't fly in."
Wen Guangda's face changed, and his eyes swept to the several palace guards who had just entered the town. Those people lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. Wen Guangda turned around and smiled at Wu Guo and said, "Do you know that the terrain of this inn is easy to be alert?"
Wu Guo turned around embarrassedly, "Go back to the general, the villain also led the soldiers to fight, but later, later..."
Wen Guangda laughed, and now it seems that Wu Guo is not too idiot. "Lead the way!"
Under Wu Guo's leadership, the group came to the best inn in the town that Wu Guo said. When they saw that Wen Guangda was very satisfied. The houses in the town were next to each other, and within dozens of meters around the inn, there was no building. It was empty, with several open spaces being mined and some fruits and vegetables were planted. Now it was the time to bear fruits and the green fruits and fruits were very eye-catching.
"There is an inn!" Wu Guo said with a smile, "General, this is the best inn in this town. Of course, it is not as clean as the capital, but it is very clean. Moreover, the chefs here cook good food, authentic local flavor. The general comes from the capital and is used to the taste of the capital. Maybe this place can surprise the general!"
Wen Guangda smiled faintly, "Well, I believe it. You will know how you look. You said you have led soldiers to fight wars before, but now you look at your appearance. If the food in this town is not good, you will never get so fat."
Wu Guo suddenly blushed, but fortunately, her face turned red, and it would be no big deal if it was a little bit red.
