The brigade of men and horses is still galloping on the official road, but it is heavily guarded, and ordinary people are not allowed to approach, even when passing through the city of Jinan and the city of Qingzhou, the brigade does not stop, and generally rests in the market town next to the official road at night, without entering the city, and without bothering the government of any place.

Entering the boundary of Qingzhou Mansion, this is already the place under Su Tiancheng's jurisdiction, but the focus of the initial construction is still in Dengzhou and Laizhou, Su Tiancheng did not take into account Qingzhou Mansion for the time being, so he did not plan to stay in Qingzhou Mansion, as for the officials of Qingzhou Mansion, in his mind, he already had a plan, and the next step was the implementation of the problem.

The assassination operation that took place in Dezhou Mansion, the basic situation is clear, the most important thing has not been implemented, the assassination is indeed arranged by the Bloodkiller Alliance, those who were killed are all killers of the Bloodkiller Alliance, the target of their assassination is Su Tiancheng, the funny thing is that these killers don't know the situation of Su Tiancheng, and even what official position Su Tiancheng holds, they don't know, they just act according to the above arrangement, including the person in charge of this operation, and they don't know the identity of Su Tiancheng, They were able to find the target accurately, relying on the information provided by a mysterious person, including all of Su Tiancheng's itinerary, who this mysterious person was, and the killer did not know what to do.

Organizing more than 100 killers at a time, it can be seen that the Blood-Killing Alliance has made up its mind, this kind of situation is the first time it has appeared, it has never been before, generally speaking, after the Blood-Killing Alliance receives the request of the employer, it can discharge more than a dozen killers, even if it is very remarkable, it seems that the Blood-Killing Alliance is really going to take Su Tiancheng's head.

It's a pity that the killers of the Blood Killing Alliance still have mistakes, and the intelligence says that Su Tiancheng came with the sergeants of the Jiangning Battalion, and these killers are careless. In their opinion, the Ming army is vulnerable, and more than 100 of them, in the face of a huge army, will not care, the sergeants of the guard's army. It's similar to lambs, together, that is, a group of rabble, a little rush, they will soon scatter and flee, and at that time, they can easily end Su Tiancheng's life.

Therefore, these killers pretended to be sergeants of the Inspection Division in Texas, waiting for Su Tiancheng to throw himself into the net. It's a pity that their carelessness cost them their lives.

The leading killer suffered unimaginable torture from ordinary people, and when he rested at night, someone specially tortured him, and the scout battalion soldiers had too many methods, constantly changing their methods, and this leader finally couldn't bear it. Tell me everything you know. He knew the situation of Lu Dao, someone gave 100,000 taels of silver to ask for Su Tiancheng's life, and the person who entrusted it did not mention Su Tiancheng's name and position, but only provided a portrait. And accurately said Su Tiancheng's itinerary along the way, this itinerary was actually Su Tiancheng's itinerary after leaving Ningyuan.

It is said that the person who entrusted it was very generous, and gave a deposit of 50,000 taels of silver. It attracted the attention of the Blood-Killing Alliance, and decisively decided to send more than a hundred killers, anyway, such a thing, they often do it, what kind of identity is it to deal with, the Blood-Killing Alliance does not need to care, just do the things arranged by the employer.

As for who the employer is, and why he will know Su Tiancheng's detailed itinerary, this leader is not clear. And this leader also said that I am afraid that in the Blood Killing Alliance, there are very few people who really know the identity of the Daoist employer, that is, a very small number of one to two people.

After learning about these situations, Su Tiancheng had his own thinking, he first ruled out the possibility of the gentry and wealthy households, the gentry and wealthy households did not have so much ability, mastered their own itinerary, reported information in a timely manner, there must be an intelligence network, it is possible to grasp it clearly, the gentry and rich households can not do it, and secondly, the remnants of the rogues were excluded to do such a thing, the reason is the same, the rogues were basically exterminated, and the fish that slipped through the net were panicked all day long, and they couldn't wait to bury themselves to avoid revealing their identities, There is a desire to plot against oneself, but there is a lack of such a climate.

The rest are two aspects, the imperial court and the Houjin.

In terms of conditions, the imperial court is completely aware of its own itinerary, and it can also report the situation in a timely manner, but even if Zhu Youzhen is a little afraid or uneasy about himself, he will not take such a means for the time being, to deal with himself, there are too many means, and there is no need for such indiscriminate means, the most important thing is that if the imperial court wants to do it, it will not be stupid enough to play the role of the inspection officer, they can completely pretend to be a chivalrous person, or even directly hire people on the rivers and lakes.

Most likely, it is Houjin.

Houjin has a strong intelligence network, from Huang Zaisheng, Su Tiancheng has already known about this matter, and took out 100,000 taels of silver, for Huang Taiji, a piece of cake, it is nothing at all, both conditions, Houjin has it, and in the process of the battle of Kuizhou Fucheng, Huang Taiji sent an elite Eight Banners Army, thinking that he could break through Fucheng and be able to take his own life, this time he left Ningyuan and went to Dengzhou, Huang Taiji must know Lu Dao.

From the analysis of time, it is also possible, after entering Shanhaiguan, there is a section of the road that is the most precipitous, choose to do it in that place, the effect is much better, besides, although the number of people in the brigade was large, but Chunping and Su Mingyue were in the middle of the team, the soldiers of the Jiangning battalion must have sworn to defend themselves and their families, and it was impossible to fight to the death with the other party.

However, this is Su Tiancheng's analysis, what is the truth, only by destroying the Blood-Killing Alliance and catching the leader of the Blood-Killing Alliance, can all the mysteries be revealed.

Before entering Laizhou, Su Tiancheng gave an order to capture several killers of the Blood-Killing Alliance, leaving the two who had previously spoken, and the rest were all killed and buried on the spot. These little bosses have no effect, and forgiveness is impossible.

After killing everyone, you can ensure that the news will not leak out, and the Blood-Killing Alliance will not know the specific results of the Dao, and will definitely wait for the news, and you can take advantage of this opportunity to send soldiers to completely exterminate the Blood-Killing Alliance, the headquarters of the Blood-Killing Alliance is located in Sichuan, and it just so happens that Ma Xianglin has something to do.

Leaving two living mouths, firstly, because these two people first opened their mouths to confess and identified the leader, and secondly, in order to be able to attack the headquarters of the Blood-Killing Alliance, these two people need to tell the situation inside the Blood-Killing Alliance, as well as the location of the headquarters.

On the third day of the second lunar month, the brigade entered Wei County, which was under the jurisdiction of Laizhou Prefecture, and Sun Chuanting led the soldiers of the Jiangning Battalion to wait here for a long time, and it was a coincidence that the soldiers led by Liu Tiehan to escort Su Tiancheng's family also rushed to Wei County the day before, and learned that Su Tiancheng would arrive in Wei County immediately, and he was waiting here.

Along the way, Wang Furong, Liu Rus, Gu Hengbo and others, after seeing Su Tiancheng, they still couldn't help but sob, women are like this, when they see their own men, their feelings are always fragile.

In the evening, when staying at the official post in Weixian County, Sun Chuanting knew what happened to Su Tiancheng in Dezhou, and his face turned blue with anger.

Liu Tiehan even asked for orders at that time, leading 2,000 soldiers to rush to Sichuan day and night to completely exterminate the Blood-Killing Alliance and figure out the situation behind the scenes.

Su Tiancheng was not in a hurry, although he also knew that time was very precious, and if he didn't get news for a long time, the Blood Killing Alliance would definitely pay close attention to it and make the necessary defenses, but this matter was still led by Ma Xianglin to do a good job, Ma Xianglin was a native of Sichuan, and he was familiar with the terrain of Sichuan.

Jiang Ningying crossed the border to exterminate the alliance on the rivers and lakes, this matter, not big, not small, and Su Tiancheng's attack on the Blood-Killing Alliance, leaked out, it must be a big matter in the imperial court, maybe no measures have been taken, it will cause an uproar, if it is not good, it will involve other sects in the middle of the rivers and lakes, and even the four major sects, it may be implicated, Su Tiancheng does not want to make a big deal about it, even if he is assassinated, he can't leak it.

Su Tiancheng told Sun Chuanting and Liu Tiehan his thoughts, and followed him to Dengzhou and Laizhou The 20,000 Jiangning battalion soldiers, the main commander is Sun Chuanting, Liu Tiehan has made many meritorious achievements, and his status in the Jiangning battalion is also unusual, Hong Chengchou and Qin Sande stayed in Liaodong, in this case, the two are Su Tiancheng's most trusted officers, as for Wang Dazhi, he is still by Su Tiancheng's side.

Sun Chuanting and Liu Tiehan quickly understood the truth, both of them agreed with Su Tiancheng's opinion, Sun Chuanting put forward a suggestion, this matter can not be delayed, you can order Ma Xianglin, immediately set off from Dengzhou, lead two thousand soldiers, completely exterminate the Blood-Killing Alliance, catch the leader of the Blood-Killing Alliance, and figure out the situation.

Su Tiancheng agreed, and he suggested that the soldiers led by Ma Xianglin should not wear military uniforms and pretend to be ordinary people, set off in batches, and rush to Sichuan as quickly as possible.

In order to speed up the journey, the Jiangning battalion stationed at Anning Fort and Jingbian can be ordered to provide artillery and quickly transport it to Sichuan.

Sun Chuanting immediately issued an order according to Su Tiancheng's arrangement, and the heralds rushed to Dengzhou day and night to convey Su Tiancheng's handwritten letter and orders to Ma Xianglin.

On the sixth day of the second lunar month, when Su Tiancheng arrived at the capital of Dengzhou, Ma Xianglin had already set off with his soldiers and rushed to Sichuan. (To be continued......)
