The bandits' discipline and fearless fighting style attracted Cheng Zuo's attention, and after witnessing the bandits' operations, he immediately realized that these people were definitely organized.

Simple and crude interrogation methods can usually be fruitful, and the capture of more than 80 robbers gave Chengzuo an excellent place to commit violence. By this time he had already cast his eyes on the second bandit, and this bandit was also tough, and simply closed his eyes as if he was going to die heroically.

Cheng Zuo naturally did as he wished, and directly slashed off his head with a knife, not even bothering to ask. Such a murderous look, even if he showed his determination, but also put the bandits behind him under great pressure, the shadow of death immediately enveloped their hearts.

Cheng Zuo, who had a gloomy face, came to the third bandit, and the bandit at this time was obviously not as resolute as the previous two. Cheng Zuo still said the same thing, the bandit just showed a hesitant look, and he did not hesitate to swing the knife to kill.

Fourth, fifth...... When they were killed until a dozen or so, some of the bandits finally collapsed......

"I said, I said, don't kill me......" The bandit, whose defense line completely collapsed in his heart, opened his frightened eyes and looked at Chengzuo as if he had seen a devil.

"By whom are you commanded, and for whom do you serve?" Cheng Zuo asked in a sinister voice.

"We are officers and soldiers in Nanjing, and it was Master Sun who brought us here to grab food." Even if the bandits told Chengzuo everything they knew.

After the latter heard this, his face became even more gloomy, and as Mao Wenlong expected, it was really Chongzhen's doing. Cheng Zuo immediately called Xiao Bin and the three of them, and ordered them to take a thousand soldiers and bring the bandits to round up Sun Chuanting, who had not yet been caught.

Cheng Zuo escorted the remaining captives back to Xuzhou City, and wrote an urgent report to Mao Wenlong as soon as he returned to the city, and waited for Mao Wenlong's final decision.

Mao Wenlong grabbed the emergency report sent by Cheng Zuo in his hand, and his face was so gloomy that he could wring out water. Hong Chengchou, who had just returned from visiting a friend, didn't know what was going on, so he asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"A group of people have suddenly appeared in Xuzhou recently, scattered throughout the territory to grab grain, and Chengzuo has now found out that the person behind the scenes is the emperor." Mao Wenlong said briefly.

Hong Chengchou was stunned for a moment, then hesitated and said, "Could it be that something went wrong, the emperor shouldn't have done such a thing at this time!" ”

Mao Wenlong didn't explain, and directly handed the urgent report sent by Chengzuo to Hong Chengchou. The latter hesitated for a moment, took the urgent report and looked at it, and after a while, Hong Chengchou took a deep breath and said, "Although those bandits have spoken, this is not enough to prove that the matter was done by the emperor." The chief soldier might as well wait until he catches Lord Sun before making a definition. ”

Hearing Hong Chengchou say this, Mao Wenlong also felt that he was too arbitrary, and he really couldn't make a conclusion just by relying on the words of the two small soldiers. He thought for a while, then nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then wait, anyway, no matter who it is this time, I will definitely not spare it." ”

Xuzhou is Mao Wenlong's grain production base, and it is also his lifeblood, precisely because of Xuzhou, a place where grain is continuously produced. He has the glory of today, and if anyone dares to touch this place, it will be no different from asking for Mao Wenlong's life.

Moreover, Mao Wenlong must severely punish these people who attack the idea of Xuzhou, kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, and the means must be tough enough. Otherwise, if other people know, they still think that he Mao Wenlong is easy to bully, and if they all beat their minds to Xuzhou in the future, he Mao Wenlong will not do anything else.

The anger could only be endured temporarily, and Mao Wenlong immediately replied to Chengzuo, asking him to find out the people behind the scenes. For this, at all costs!

Looking at Mao Wenlong's reply, Cheng Zuo suddenly felt a lot of pressure, Xiao Bin and a thousand of them went to arrest Sun Chuanting, three days have passed, but there is still no news back. Cheng Zuo couldn't sit still at the moment, he felt it from Mao Wenlong's letter, full of anger, and knew that Mao Wenlong was really angry this time.

After some hesitation, Cheng Zuo finally decided to go out in person, and he first set up heavy troops to defend the periphery of Xuzhou to prevent people in Xuzhou from escaping. Then, for the sake of safety, he also wrote a letter asking the Guide Government to send troops to help.

For a time, there was a lot of noise in Xuzhou, and the Dongjiang Army could be seen everywhere searching for bandits, and such a large-scale search and arrest soon had an effect. According to Cheng Zuo's interrogation, he learned that there are currently more than 1,000 officers and soldiers entering Xuzhou, and more than 600 have been arrested in two days of large-scale raids.

This also means that there are less than 200 officers and soldiers left in Xuzhou. Chengzuo soon joined up with Xiao Bin, who was chasing Sun Chuanting, and learned from him that Sun Chuanting had now disappeared from Xuzhou. And Xiao Bin has only some clues so far, and is stepping up his search.

Xiangzi Village is located on the outskirts of Pei County, a village of only a dozen or so households, located on the mountainside. Because it is a hilly area that is not suitable for growing food, this place has obviously been abandoned, and Sun Chuanting and others, who have been searched everywhere, are hiding here.

In the dimly lit thatched house, Sun Chuanting sat at the table with a pale face, looking at the dim oil lamp in a daze. The counterattack of the Dongjiang Army came so fiercely that his plan was completely disrupted. Now he is so anchored that he can only hide outside this barren mountain and wilderness, and he doesn't even dare to take a step.

And the 1,000 people he brought with him are now only a few dozen people around him, so it can be said that he has undoubtedly failed this time to rob the grain.

"Alas...... Heaven is gone! A deep sigh showed how decadent Sun Chuanting was at this moment.

"My lord, there are Dongjiang troops everywhere outside, or we should escape here as soon as possible, otherwise we may be discovered at any time." Sun Chuanting's henchman Yu Changle gave up his hand to persuade.

"Run? Can you escape now? Sun Chuanting smiled weakly and bitterly.

Yu Changle was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that they were indeed trapped here.

Sun Chuanting paused for a moment and asked, "You went out to inquire today, do you have any news from them?" ”

A trace of hesitation flashed in Yu Changle's eyes: "It is said that the others are all dead, and they are caught, and it is estimated that there are few who can escape this catastrophe." ”

After Sun Chuanting heard this, the bad luck on his face worsened, he was silent for a long time, and suddenly reached into his arms and took out a small porcelain bottle: "This is the deadly poison of 'poisonous intestine powder', make a hearty dinner tonight, and add this to the meal." ”

Yu Changle looked at the small porcelain vase in Sun Chuanting's hand in a daze, and didn't take it for a long time. Obviously, Sun Chuanting is ready to take the last step at this moment, and he, Yu Changle, is obviously not willing to die like this.
