When the time passed, the night was getting darkest to the deepest extent, and the breath of flames near Wenhan Garden was suppressed, but groups of lanterns and torches were still gathered here, and the atmosphere around the neighborhood became solemn on the inside and outside of the three layers.

The palace guards had already laid a tight line of defense along the courtyard wall, and Cheng Zhouhai and his deputy got down from the carriage and made contact with Tie Tianying, who had arrived here first.

“…… Since the fire was almost extinguished, all the men of the yamen were immediately on standby, and no one was allowed to move without an order...... Your forbidden army is watching the inner circle, I will send someone to watch the surroundings, there are suspicious deeds, indiscriminate probe, let's write them down, after today, we will visit the door of the family again......"

“…… Your Majesty will come later. ”

“…… Good. Cheng Zhouhai nodded, "What about the casualties?" ”

Tie Tianying looked at the deputy beside him: "It's very miserable. ”

"Okay." Cheng Zhouhai nodded again, and then waved his hand to his deputy, "Go ahead, watch the outside, and report if there is any news." ”

"Yes." The deputy took the order and left.

Not long after, a convoy followed by the guards came from the north and entered the side gate outside Wenhan Garden, and Jun Wu, who had a long sword hanging from his waist, got out of the car, followed by Zhou Pei. They sniffed the air, and walked towards the courtyard, followed by the Iron Sky Eagle and Cheng Zhouhai.

In the Wenhan Garden, which is a three-story building, the fire burned down a house, and most of the main building was also burned. Due to the large-scale arrival of the water dragon trucks, the air was full of the unpleasant smell left behind by the burning of half of the wood, and the smell of blood was faintly pervasive from time to time. Since he had to discuss things with Zuo Wenhuai and others every day, Li Pin, who lived not far away, had already arrived, and greeted him at this time and saluted Jun Wu and Zhou Pei.

"Zuo Qing's family, how about the casualties?" Jun Wu asked first.

"Your Majesty, eldest princess, please come with me."

Li Pin said, leading them to the third building, which was still intact, and on the way, he saw some young people, a few of whom seemed to be still moving in the burned rooms of the main building, not knowing what they were doing.

"Zuo Wenhuai, Xiao Jingyi, are you all right?" Jun Wu suppressed his curiosity and didn't run to the blackened building to check, and asked on the way. Li Pin nodded and said in a low voice: "It's okay, the fight is very fierce, but Zuo and Xiao are both prepared, and a few people were injured, but fortunately, there was no major incident, no one died, only two were seriously injured, it is difficult to say for the time being." ”

Hearing such an answer, Jun Wu breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the burned down half-building building, and then said to the side: "What are they doing there?" ”

"During the fight, several bandits rushed into the room in the building, trying to resist stubbornly, and several people on this side persuaded them to surrender, but their resistance was too fierce, so they ...... Dropped a few bombs from the southwest into it, where the corpses were now mangled and they ...... Go in and look for some clues. However, the scene was too tragic for His Majesty to go over and see. ”

"Don't look." Jun Wu looked at the ruined room over there, his brows furrowed, he replied in a low voice, and then said, "True Guoshi." ”

Blowing people to pieces with a bomb was obviously not the criterion for judging the countrymen, but seeing that the emperor looked happy at this violent atmosphere, of course, no one questioned this. After all, the emperor has been chasing and fighting all the way since he ascended the throne, and this kind of drama of being assassinated by bandits and then luring people over and blowing them into pieces in the house is really too much for his appetite.

- That's how good people should be!

"Are there any damage to the books and materials that were brought from the southwest?" It was only then that he looked at the traces of the burning flame and asked about it.

"After arriving in Fuzhou, the first thing we did was to organize and copy these books and materials, so that even if something happened today, the materials would not be damaged. Oh, the fire that Your Majesty saw at this time, and then we deliberately let it burn......"

"Why?"

"Your Majesty wants to do things, and suffer a loss first, which is an excuse, whether to use it or not, after all, it is just these two houses. In addition, as soon as Lord Tie came, the inner perimeter was tightly sealed, and the courtyard was sealed tightly, and we said to the outside that there were heavy losses tonight, and many people died, so the situation outside was a little panicked......"

"Well done."

Jun Wu couldn't help but praise.

The group had arrived in front of the intact wooden building at this time, and along the way, Jun Wu also observed some situations. Although some of the arming on the periphery of the courtyard and the inner perimeter were in charge of the guards, the cleaning and investigation of the fighting sites everywhere were obviously controlled by this Huaxia army team.

This is unusual, theoretically Iron Sky Eagle must be responsible for this first-hand information, and the reason why it is excluded is that the two sides must have had some disagreements and even conflicts. But in the face of Zuo Wenhuai and the others who had just finished a round of killing, Tie Tianying still didn't force it after all.

What is shown here is the real strength of this team of more than 40 people from the southwest, which is very different from the respect and even shyness shown by Zuo Wenhuai in the past period. For those in power, of course, there is a bad signal here, but for Jun Wu, who has always wondered and fantasized about what the powerful combat power of the southwest is all about, he has figured out a lot of things because of this.

That's right, if it weren't for such an attitude, how could the teacher have been able to defeat Zong Han and Xi Yin, who were more difficult than the Jurchen Eastern Route Army, in the southwest.

As a young and vigorous emperor in his early thirties, he struggled for a lot of time in the shadow of defeat and death, and also had countless fantasies about what kind of atmosphere it should be in the camp of the Chinese army in the southwest. When the Huaxia army finally defeated Zong Han Xiyin, he remembered the long-term defeat and the slaughter of the people of the Wu Dynasty, and he only felt guilty in his heart, and even directly said something like "the big husband should be like this".

Zuo Wenhuai is the Zuo family placed in the southwest to train talents, after coming to Fuzhou, although the prelude to the palace is frank, but it also looks too shy and gentle, and Junwu's imagination of the Huaxia Army, there are still some differences, he once felt sorry for this: maybe the southwest side of Fuzhou considering that there are too many pedants, so they sent some sleek and sophisticated civilian soldiers over, of course, it is a good thing to have a use, and he will naturally not complain about it.

At this moment, the side of the poor dagger was revealed in front of him. Let's have a book

That's all there is to it!

Walking to the front of the two-story building, the young man of the Huaxia Army from the southwest nearby saluted him, he stretched out his hands to help the other party's bloodstained body up, and asked Zuo Wenhuai where he was, and learned that Zuo Wenhuai was checking the body of the bandit and wanted to call him out, Jun Wu waved his hand: "It's okay, let's take a look, what are the things!" ”

At this time, the place where the corpses of the bandits were concentrated was on the left side of the first floor, and before they could go, Zuo Wenhuai and others, who knew that the emperor was coming, opened the door and came out, and greeted Jun Wu, Jun Wu greeted them a few words, and then smiled and went to the room.

"Your Majesty, there's ...... there"

Zuo Wenhuai also wanted to persuade him, but Jun Wu said: "It's okay, I've seen corpses." "He especially likes the feeling of being vigorous.

This room is quite large, but the smell of blood is thick inside, and there are three rows of corpses in front of and back, about twenty bodies, some are placed on the ground, some are placed on the table, perhaps because they heard that the emperor is coming, and several bodies on the table are hastily covered with a layer of cloth. Jun Wu pulled open the cloth on the table, only to see that the corpses below had been stripped of their clothes, lying there naked, and some of the wounds were even more bloody and hideous.

“…… We have looked at these corpses, most of them have dark and rough skin, calluses on their hands and feet, and they look like people who have been at sea all year round. During the fight, we also noticed that some of the people were nimble, but the movements of the next game were very strange, and it was like kung fu on a boat...... We dissected the stomachs of a few people, but we didn't find any obvious clues for the time being. Of course, we are new to the city, and some traces cannot be found, and we have to wait for the specific ones to be examined......"

Cesarean ...... Jun Jun looked at the disgusting corpse and nodded again and again: "Is it coming?" ”

“…… Since we don't know who is doing it, we have discussed with Master Li and think that we can't let the idle people come in first, so we ......"

"Done right. How is the bandit martial arts? ”

"The skills are good, if you put it right in private, the outcome is unpredictable."

"Then why do we have so few casualties? …… Of course that's a good thing, but I'm just a little weird. ”

"Back to Your Majesty, fighting on the battlefield is different from picking provocations in the rivers and lakes after all. On the side of Wenhanyuan, there are troops guarding the periphery, but we have carefully planned what methods we will use if we want to capture this place, and we have some plans. When the bandits came, the secret sentry we arranged first discovered the other party, and then temporarily organized a few people to patrol with lanterns, and deliberately directed them to one place, and after they came in, it was already a little late to resist...... However, these people were determined and not afraid of death, and we only caught two seriously wounded men, and we bandaged them, and we will hand them over to Lord Iron later......"

"Uh-huh......" Jun Wu nodded, listened with relish, and then said solemnly: "Those who have this will may be the private slaves of some big clans, and if you look for them carefully, you should be able to find out." ”

"Judging from the steps of these people infiltrating, they knew quite well about the troops on duty on the periphery, and they chose the right time to change the guard, and they had quietly entered without alarming them, which shows that the people who came to Fuzhou did have a deep relationship. In addition, we have not been here for a month, and what we have actually done has not started, so I don't know who made the move, so the people want to get rid of us...... I can't think of these things for the time being......"

Jun Wu smiled: "These things can be investigated slowly." You and Li Qing made a very good decision temporarily, first block the news, deliberately burn the building, show the enemy weakness, and wait until the news of your damage is released, according to me, those who have ghosts in their hearts will slowly show up after all, you can rest assured, I will definitely find a place for you today. By the way, where are the wounded? Take me to see it first, and in addition, the imperial doctor can let him in first, and after treating the injury, he will be strictly guarded, and he will never reveal the slightest rumor here. ”

Everyone then went to see a few wounded people in the room of the building on the other side, and Jun Wu reflected: "In fact, since entering Fuzhou, there have been some people who have assassinated Yu Zhen before, but because the army is stationed nearby, and there are the dedicated guards of the Tie Qing family, there are fewer people in the city who dare to assassinate and kill people without reluctance. You just came to Fuzhou, and you encountered such a thing, it was my negligence, these things in the nest, they really care so much about the righteousness of our Wu Dynasty, and I don't see them doing so much when resisting Jin——"

He scolded fiercely.

This team from the southwest arrived here, after all, it had not yet begun to participate in large-scale reforms. In the first round of speculation in everyone's hearts, first of all, they still thought that those old Confucian students who had been thinking about the crime of killing the emperor in their hearts were the most likely to take action, and they could mobilize dozens of people to carry out assassination in this way, which was a really large-scale act. If Zuo Wenhuai and the others had taken it lightly because they had arrived in Fuzhou, they might have died on the first floor tonight.

But looking at the blood stains on these people and the steel wire armor they wore under their coats, Jun Wu understood that these young people were much more vigilant about this fight than others in Fuzhou.

This kind of thing may mean that they don't trust their side in normal times, but now, it really proves that they are right.

"I want to apologize to you." Jun Wu said, "But I also promise you that such a thing will not happen again in the future. ”

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be like this." Zuo Wenhuai bowed his head and saluted, pausing slightly, "Actually...... To put it mildly, before we came, Mr. Ning from the southwest told us that as long as interests are involved, the internal struggle should be more dangerous than the external struggle, because many times we will not know where the enemy comes from. Since Your Majesty has carried out reforms, we are Your Majesty's pawns. The pawn does not avoid knives and guns, and His Majesty does not need to regard us as too delicate. ”

Jun Wu looked at him and was silent for a long time, then let out a long, long sigh of relief. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the meeting he had with the members of the Huaxia Army before Jiang Ning ascended the throne, it was the first time he saw the spies of the Huaxia Army head-on......

At this time, Zuo Wenhuai faintly overlapped with that figure......

This is the Huaxia Army.

This is the Huaxia Army!

If there were such soldiers around him back then, how could the Jurchens wreak havoc and slaughter in Jiangnan......

He nodded.

Then the group deliberated in the room for a moment, how to confuse the outside world about what was going to happen next, and how to find out the main messenger this time...... By the time they left the room, the members of the Huaxia Army had already handed over some of the guards under Iron Sky Eagle - they were covered in blood, and even those who could move looked badly injured and miserable. But under this miserable appearance, the people who survived the battlefield with the Jurchens have begun to accept the challenge of strangers as the head snake of the land in this strange place......

The sky was not yet dawn, the stars were twinkling in the night sky, the smell of the fire was still permeating, and the night still seemed restless and restless. One force after another is about to show its posture......
