"This is cowardice, this man's donkey must have been stolen. We walked in a hurry for fear that the donkey's owner would catch up, and when they saw us, they ran away for fear that the matter would be revealed. Zhang Xiaoshe concluded, Wu Bantou nodded, feeling that it was very reasonable, so he shouted and asked, and the man really admitted that his donkey was secretly ridden out of the restaurant.

Zhang Xiaoshe and the others continued to patrol the street, and suddenly saw three or four people sleeping in the corner on the side of the street, and there were a few pieces of cut watermelon next to them.

"Hehe, this person is strange, he cuts the watermelon on a hot day and doesn't eat it, you see, he was bitten by flies." Wu Bantou looked at those watermelons, his mouth was drooling, and he also wanted to take a sip.

"Arrest them!" Zhang Xiaoshe said.

Wu Bantou was incredulous and asked, "Captain Zhang, are these people also thieves?" ”

"Exactly." Zhang Xiaoshe affirmed.

"Why is that?" Wu Bantou asked puzzled.

Zhang Xiaoshe replied: "Hmph, normal people are spirits during the day, sleep at night, they sleep in the daytime, this is not the most critical, the most critical thing is a few pieces of watermelon next to it, why do you say they want to cut the watermelon and not eat it, but give it to fly bites?" ”

"Why?" Wu Bantou shook his head, his head was obviously not enough, and he asked very modestly.

"Because watermelons are used to attract flies, only by attracting the flies around them to bite watermelons, these people can sleep soundly during the day, and they can have the energy to move at night!" Zhang Xiaoshe explained.

"It makes sense, arrest me and go back for interrogation!" Wu Bantou ordered.

Qin Yiming in the distance was shocked, this Zhang Xiaoshe was simply born to be a good hunter, as if he had special functions, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "Sure enough, the little person is not a villain!" As the so-called art industry has a specialization, you can't accept it!" Qin Yiming estimated that these messy things, he Zhang Xiaoshe had not done less before, otherwise how could he have such rich experience.

The next day, Qin Yiming was having dinner in the restaurant, and Zhang Xiaoshe came over.

"Adult, the little one is looking for you to report something."

The big cow and the little monkey were next to him, and when Zhang Xiaoshe saw the big cow, his expression was very unnatural and very afraid.

"Captain Zhang really lives up to the expectations of his own officials, you have only managed the security of Anlu County for just a few days, and the security of this Anlu County has improved significantly. Hehe, well done, good! Qin Yiming couldn't help but praise.

"Thank you, Lord for compliment!" Zhang Xiaoshe bent his back and flattered diligently.

"Why didn't you report to Master Sun if you had something, and you came to the restaurant to find our young master?" The little monkey asked.

Zhang Xiaoshe said with an embarrassed face: "Lord Sun drank too much wine yesterday and hasn't woken up today, I didn't hear that the adult was coming, so I came over." ”

Qin Yiming didn't expect Sun Shirui to drink so much, laughed, and then said, "What's the matter, you say!" ”

"I've heard a lot of homeless people say that the Eight Kings, the King of Sweepers, and the King of Taiping are about to hit our Anlu......" Zhang Xiaoshe said more and more quietly.

"What are you kidding, how could Zhang Xianzhong come to us, aren't they in Fengyang?" The big cow was the first to believe it, and the little monkey also shook his head.

Zhang Xiaoshe said: "Adult, this is not made up by the small one, this is said by the refugees, where does the small one dare to deceive the adults here, the small one has the old and the young, the nine generations are single, and the small one is ......."

"You go and ask carefully, what the hell is going on!" Qin Yiming was upright, his expression was serious, they all felt that this wave of refugees was because of natural disasters in Henan, but natural disasters existed, it does not mean that there are no disasters, maybe Zhang Xianzhong and other thieves really arrived in Henan, and the people fled from Henan, and they ran here, if they really arrived in Henan, then their army would not go south, and they had to prepare in advance!

"Little monkey, you immediately send someone to find out what's going on!" Qin Yiming was still not at ease, and continued to command.

"Yes, young master!" The little monkey immediately walked out.

Half a day later, after all the news gathered, Qin Yiming came to a conclusion, that is, Zhang Xianzhong and other peasant troops had indeed arrived in Henan, so the people of Henan fled in all directions.

Sun Shirui woke up drunk for a few days, and after hearing the news that Zhang Xianzhong and others were in Henan, and it was very likely to go south, he was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, what kind of person is Zhang Xianzhong, that is even the central capital Fengyang dares to burn, and he has a lot of people under him, if he really wants to go to De'an Mansion, how should the entire De'an resist, if Zhang Xianzhong and others really go south, then Sun Shirui can only kowtow to the north three times, and then kill himself.

"What can I do? What can I do? Sun Shirui was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth, but he couldn't think of any good way, there are no soldiers in this De'an Mansion, there are two thousand households in the entire De'an Mansion, one is the De'an Thousand Households, and the other is the Suizhou Thousand Households, but these two Thousand Households don't say that he has no power to transfer, that is, he can mobilize, and the strength is estimated to be about 2,000 people.

Sun Shirui thought of the troops, suddenly looked at Qin Yiming, and found that Qin Yiming seemed to be a person who had nothing to do, so he asked: "Oh, brother, I'm dying, why are you still so leisurely!" ”

Qin Yiming is also very anxious in his heart, can he not be in a hurry, in case the butcher is calling, he doesn't care who you are, he will still kill you, and Qin Yiming is still the master of the Thousand Households, and he is the priority target, but it is useless to be anxious.

"The top priority now is to find out the location of Zhang Xianzhong's thief army, so that we can make corresponding countermeasures."

Sun Shirui may be too anxious, and said as soon as he opened his mouth: "Countermeasures, what countermeasures can there be, your entire De'an Thousand Households is no more than 600 head soldiers, but people are dead thieves, and there are tens of thousands of people at every turn, what countermeasures can there be, unless the heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals descend to earth, maybe they can save our people in Anlu!" ”

Inside the Pinri Fort.

In response to the current situation, Qin Yiming convened Ma Qianhu, Yang Baishi, Baihu and others to hold a military meeting, and Sun Shirui attended.

"According to the news from Niuxinzhai, combined with the Tang newspaper, the eight kings, sweeping kings, Taiping Wang and other anti-thieves have already arrived in the Ruzhou area of Henan, the emperor is wise, and has transferred the governor of Shaanxi, Lord Hong, to send troops to Tongguan, plus the troops of the Central Plains provinces, a total of hundreds of thousands of troops, will be in Henan to attack Zhang Xianzhong and other anti-thieves, at present, the Hong army has arrived in Ruyang, Cao Zongbing, Liu Zongbing and other troops are on the way to Henan." Yang Baihu pointed to the sand table and introduced the situation.

As soon as Sun Shirui heard that there were more than 100,000 troops in the imperial court, his heart immediately calmed down a lot, his body relaxed, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ruyang? Isn't that forcing the thieves to go south?! Qin Yiming looked at the sand table and pondered, if Zhang Xianzhong came from the east and Hong Chengchou was in the northwest, would Zhang Xianzhong still fight Hong Chengchou directly? Hong Chengchou's reputation is quite loud in the peasant army, Zhang Xianzhong has the strength and courage?
