In the evening, as soon as Li Zhang finished eating, he couldn't wait to pull Li Buqi and ask what he could do, so that his position could be comparable to that of a lieutenant.

Li Buqi said: "Lian Juzheng (Lian Guangzhi) once heard that in the second year of Baoyuan, His Majesty released 270 people in the palace, and Yuan Haoyin bought several people with heavy coins, so the imperial court punished and rewarded the palace with a good understanding of the matter. ”

It was the first time Li Zhang heard about this, and he was frightened. This is worth it, the matter of the palace is known to the summer thieves, but what a terrible thing. He hurriedly asked, "Have you reported this matter to Your Majesty?" ”

Li Buqi said: "This matter has not been confirmed, how can I report it to Your Majesty at will." But Yuan Hao has always been good at espionage, and this matter can only be trusted if it is not credible. I don't think there may be no Yuan Hao and Liao's spies in this Bianliang City, and you can check these spies as the ambassador of the thieves. The war intelligence of the two countries comes first, if you can catch all the enemy's spies and protect your side like an iron bucket, you will win half of it, is it important to say that you do this? If you do a good job, maybe in a few years you will have an official position that is not under the rank of lieutenant to be in charge of investigating the enemy's spies and finding out the enemy's news. ”

"Well, it seems to be." Li Zhang nodded first, and then became constipated: "It's just that I won't do this kind of thing!" ”

Li Buqi also nodded approvingly: "To do this well, you have to find a few helpers." I think you can choose a few people from among the nobles. By the way, even Ju Zheng is familiar with the three sects and nine streams, and he has also fought with Xia thieves, why don't you let him help you? ”

Li Buqi looks at Lian Guangzhi's poetry and writing level like that, it is unlikely that he will rely on Jinshi, and he is not as good as Sun Xujiu. Although he couldn't bear to tell Lian Guangzhi about this cruel thing, he still sold Lian Guangzhi decisively.

Li Zhang didn't think much about it, and immediately agreed: "I think Lianju is a capable person." With his help, you will have no problem giving advice. Brother, when you say this, this matter is very promising, brother, I will definitely do it well. ”

Rattle! Now it is much more convenient to have your own people to collect intelligence, understand the dynamics of the court, and collect black materials of political enemies!

Ge Shengwen happened to come back from arranging the sentry, and when he heard it, he immediately ran over curiously and asked curiously, "What's the matter?" What's up? ”

Li Buqi told him about what he had just said to Li Zhang, and Ge Shengwen immediately recommended his brother to follow Li Zhang's experience, and was talking lively, when he suddenly heard the sound of a horn in the distance.

Two short and one long, this is the sound of the alarm.

Since the beginning of the whistle drill, there has never been a whistle blowing alarm, so everyone was stunned all of a sudden.

Seeing Wang Zhaoming running out of the house while wearing a drape, the four chief officers are here, it must not be a drill, then someone is really warning him. All three of them rushed back to the house with a strange scream, and when they ran out of the house a short time later, they were already neatly clothed, and then rushed to the school grounds.

More than a dozen emergency gatherings worked, and as soon as they heard the sound of the alarm horn, they all led the patrol team to the direction where the alarm was issued, and the soldiers quickly stopped and lined up on the school field with weapons in hand. Although there are still people running out of the barracks, several phalanxes on the school field have basically counted the number of people. This reaction speed is still very impressive.

At this time, a patrol should have arrived at the location of the alarm, and the sound of the horn had stopped. Li Zhang guessed: "Could it be that someone came to steal the method of making glass?" ”

This is the interior, even if the bandits see five or six hundred armed men armed to the teeth, they have to walk around, and fifty percent of the sentry posts and patrols that were set up early were actually aimed at preventing someone from snooping on the secrets of the test site, and the other fifty percent was just to make the recruits get used to it. So now it is normal for Li Zhang to have such speculation.

But soon the watchman came with a horse in a hurry, and when he came closer, he shouted, "Report to the officer, something has happened." One of our soldiers killed someone. ”

"What? A soldier kills someone? "At this time, not only did Li Buqi and they couldn't believe it, but even the soldiers who were standing high in front were in a commotion-who dared to run to the barracks to kill people, and they were tired of being crooked?

Li Buqi hurriedly shouted: "Silence! ”

The school field immediately fell silent, and Li Buqi shouted: "Everyone counts the number of people!" ”

When there was a number of announcements on the school grounds, he asked Nadutou, "When did this happen?" ”

"Just now, our sentry heard what seemed to be someone shouting, so I went to check and found that a soldier had been killed on the spot. But the murderer is gone. ”

After a while, the number of people was checked, and only the third and fifth were short of people, and immediately the two of them came out with a few squad leaders to recognize people.

Li did not give up the order: "In the first half of the night, the password is to be comrades, and the revenge is returned, leaving the fifth capital and the reserve commander to strengthen vigilance, and the other four are searching for the murderer." Once the murderer is found, he will be killed. ”

Wang Zhaoming looked at the sky that had completely darkened and said worriedly: "It's dark." ”

Li Buqi said: "Today's moonshine is not bad. Besides, in the future, whether it is to exterminate bandits or fight against Liao and Xia, how can it be divided into day and night. Bring all the dogs with you. By the way, call Xu San! ”

Tao Lin had just agreed to call Xu San, and Li Buqi ordered both to search on both sides, one to push in the direction where the murderer might escape, and the fourth to maneuver. Before the order was given, Xu San ran over with Tao Lin, followed by the half-big hound he raised.

"The official who raised the name is Xiao Lao'er?"

Li Buqi said: "Someone killed one of us, and we must not let him escape." Don't you have the ability to track it with one hand? I'll send you the squad leader training team, and you must catch the murderer for me. Live or die, as long as you catch him, I will invite you to drink good wine! ”

Xu San's eyes lit up as soon as he heard the drinking, and he tucked the empty sleeve of his left arm into his belt and said, "Don't worry, with a few of our old brothers, we will never run away from the thief." Then I'm going to chase the thief! ”

Wang Zhaoming immediately ordered: "Squad leader training team, keep up with the old drunkard!" ”

More than 30 men shouted "Order" neatly, and then ran to keep up with Xu San.

In the midst of the sound of passwords, everyone began to act. Li Buqi and the three nobles jumped on their horses and followed the head of the watch to the place where the body was found.

It was an oak forest that was planted last year, and now it is as bright as day with torches. Li Buqi jumped off the horse but didn't go over immediately, waited until Xu San went over to check first, and then pointed in a direction, led people to lead the dog to search over, and then he walked to the corpse. A squad leader reported: "This is Wang Xiaoyi of our fifth capital." ”

The corpse was neatly dressed in military uniform and carried no weapons. The corpse had a large wound on its right arm, and a knife in the chest was fatal. Li Buqi had studied anatomy, and at a glance he could see that the knife was directly inserted into the heart, killing him with one blow.

"It's definitely the veterans who kill people. Tell everyone to be careful. Li Buqi told Wang Zhaoming. Wang Zhaoming answered, and Ge Shengwen commanded each to round up the murderer.

Li Buqi squatted down next to the corpse and carefully looked at the corpse's wounds. Li Zhang, who was vomiting so much, easily stopped spitting and said, "What is this soldier doing here in the middle of the night?" ”

Li Buqi said: "It may be that he was asked out." ”

"Oh? How can you see it? Li Zhang is a young man with a strong sense of curiosity, and he doesn't care about the smell of blood, so he hurriedly came over to take a look.

Li Buqi pointed to the wound of the corpse: "Judging from the wound, he and the murderer are standing very close, and they are face to face. Fortunately, he practiced his fists and feet quite diligently, so he could subconsciously block the murderer's first knife, but the murderer didn't give him another chance. ”

"Can you see this? So he knew the murderer? ”

Li Buqi said to the squad leader: "Go and ask this Wang Xiaoyi if there is anything unusual recently." ”

The squad leader ran back, and Li Buqi said to Li Zhang: "The most important thing now is to catch the murderer." We've only done one night pull, and we don't know what we're going to do tonight, so we'll help you command. ”
