Chapter 548: The Man in Black (1)

Hearing that with the help of Wei Lan, the Xiliang army occupied the end, Yan Rou was furious and fell ill in bed, and the generals in the army came to visit.

Yan Rou gritted his teeth and said: "All the Wuhuan people in the general were killed, and the general finally knew that Gongsun Zhan Weishenme only killed the Wuhuan people and did not surrender, a group of shameless villains, capricious, it is not a pity to die, and in the future, if the general sees the Wuhuan people, there will be no forgiveness." ”

Yan Rou has absolute prestige and strength in Youzhou, his words are basically more applicable than Liu He, the generals in the army naturally dare not disobey, and they have done so, for a while, the people in the Youzhou army were panicked, especially the defeated generals, they didn't know if Yan Rou's next military order would be to put them to death.

Youbeiping County fell into the hands of the Xiliang Army within a month, and Guo Jia couldn't help but admire when he saw that Jia Xu was able to break through the Youzhou Army with more than 10,000 soldiers and horses and occupy Youbeiping.

After Jia Rong of Chang'an learned that Youbeiping County was occupied by the generals sent by Jia Xu, he was overjoyed, rewarded him with fine wine and went to the army, and at the same time summoned Guo Jia back.

Gradually, among Youzhou, there are already five counties that belong to the Xiliang Army, Yan Rou can only live in Liaoxi County, and Liaodong County is Gongsun Kang's territory, and the Youzhou Army has always been at odds, Jia Rong will not worry about Yan Rou taking refuge in them, and then continue to fight against the Xiliang Army, the vast grassland is also Jia Rong's territory, it can be said that Yan Rou is already a turtle in the urn, there is nowhere to go, only to wait quietly for death, or surrender.

Seeing that the offensive of the Xiliang army was so fierce, Yuan Shao of Jizhou was also shocked, I didn't expect when Jia Rong had contact with the Wuhuan people, and took the opportunity to turn against him, and at the same time secretly hated that his subordinates did not take advantage of the strategists, so he did not resist the Xiliang army at the beginning, and lost the land of the two counties, in terms of military strength, Yuan Shao did not think that the Jizhou army was weak, and it had been occupied for many years, winning more and losing less, which made Yuan Shao full of confidence, but there was a heartfelt fear when facing the Xiliang army.

In Chang'an City, Jia Rong was in a good mood, changed into civilian clothes, walked around Chang'an City, looked at the bustling bazaar, and then thought about the desolation of the border county, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "When all the cities can be like Chang'an, why worry about the world can't be determined." ”

In the bazaar of Chang'an, there are almost all kinds of merchants from all over the Central Plains, there are snacks and restaurants from all over the Central Plains, merchants come to Chang'an at all costs in order to make a profit, rent a room at a high price, open the door to do business, these lands of course belong to the Xiliang Army, just the rent, every year the Xiliang Army collects a huge amount, which is incomparable to the princes of the Central Plains, the land of the Central Plains, it is said that the princes are the kings and hegemons, in fact, the family controls more land than the princes, which is also the status quo in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, and the land annexation is serious, The people rose up.

After walking to the Fenglai Building, the second child of his own store stepped forward to receive him.

In a luxurious box, Jia Rong ordered a few dishes and a bottle of wine, and poured himself a drink, which was not bad.

Suddenly, there was a low cry and the sound of weapons colliding next door, Jia Rong was shocked and hurriedly walked out of the box.

Fenglailou is one of the luxurious restaurants in Chang'an City, the shopkeeper's own strength is still there, dare to make trouble in Fenglailou, it is definitely looking for death, Jia Rong can't help but be curious, who is in the box next door, on the bright side of Chang'an is peaceful and prosperous, secretly it is a torrent, under the strict surveillance of the Xiliang Army, there is nothing wrong, Jia Rong also understands that there is no shortage of Central Plains families and even princes in Chang'an City, and it is normal to inquire about the news.

The movement in the box did not alarm the others, Jia Rong stood outside the box with his sword, quietly waiting for the movement inside to end.

After about a cup of tea, the door of the box opened, and when he saw the person who came out, Jia Rong couldn't help but be stunned, and said in surprise: "Why are you?" ”

"Lord, this is not the place to speak, let's talk about it somewhere else." Wang Yue hugged his fist.

Jia Rong glanced at Wang Yue carefully, nodded slightly in agreement, since he chose to cooperate with Wang Yue, they must have enough confidence in each other, not to mention that the assassination is still in Wang Yue's hands at this time.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on." Jia Rong asked.

This is a secret stronghold of lone wolf soldiers, surrounded by lone wolf soldiers, but he is not afraid that Wang Yue will have any other actions.

"Lord, an unknown man in black suddenly appeared in the city, these people are strong in martial arts, good at swordsmanship, good at assassination, about a while lurking in the city, there has been no movement, today the humble position also followed a man in black to the Fenglai Building, seeing that the matter was revealed, the man in black suddenly became troubled, was not defeated by the lowly position, and was killed!" Wang Yue explained.

Jia Rong was secretly frightened, there were people in black in Chang'an City, and the intelligence network of the Xiliang Army was so powerful, he didn't even know when the men in black came in, no wonder, there were too many merchants and people in Chang'an City, there were about 100,000 people, and there were countless people who came in and out every day, and they could definitely be called prosperous.

"These people stay in the city normally during the day, often go to Fenglai Tower to drink, but at night, they begin to move around the city, repeatedly sneaking into the mansions of officials, their hearts are clearly exposed, and they are being investigated recently." Wang Yue arrived.

There is no curfew in Chang'an City, so merchants can choose to do business at night, the whole Chang'an, whether day or night, is very lively, and many rich people are also willing to go out at night for a while and then go back to rest.

"Whose mansion have you entered?" Jia Rong asked.

"General Guo, Guo Junshi, and General Li Shun and others, who secretly followed behind with their humble duties, saw that they didn't make any moves, so they didn't startle the snakes, and today they were still in trouble because they found out about their humble duties."

Jia Rong said coldly: "Be sure to investigate strictly, find these people in black and execute them all, remember, General Ben must know their origins, as well as the purpose of investigating the officials' mansions, Guo Yan, Guo Jia and Li Shun and others, it is very important for the Xiliang Army, and the loss of one person will make Jia Rong fall into grief." ”

Wang Yue hugged his fist and said yes, after Jia Rong left, he also started a new job, Wang Yue's assassination was established not long ago, but he made a name for himself in the Xiliang Army, if he could eradicate the incident of the man in black again, he could faintly compare with the lone wolf, the lone wolf was a secret army formed by Jia Rong, Wang Yue was a master of swordsmanship, his skills were unfathomable, and he also wanted to compare with the lone wolf soldiers.

Chang'an City is still very lively, after the temptation of the man in black, Jia Rong has no heart to continue to wander around the city, Guo Jia Jia Xu Li Shun, these three people are extremely important to the Xiliang Army, and there can be no mistakes.

Jia Rong really wanted to immediately send troops to protect the mansion of the three of them, but thinking of Wang Yue's methods, he also put down his tight heart for the time being, these black-clothed people definitely had unimaginable schemes.

"Lord, it's no good, Lord Guo met an assassin on the way back to the mansion and was stabbed, and now he is recuperating in the mansion."

Jia Rong sat up suddenly, his tone full of anger, "Go to Guo Jia's mansion and have a look." ”

Guo Jia's mansion was not far from the General's Mansion, and it was hard to imagine how bold the assassin was, and he actually assassinated the Xiliang military officials under Jia Rong's nose.

"Order the soldiers to strictly guard the Guo family, no one is allowed to enter without my order, let Zhang Xiu search Guo Jia's mansion closely to see if anything can be found, and the murderer must be caught." Jia Rong ordered.

"Bonghyo, how do you feel?"

Seeing Jia Rong coming, Guo Jia struggled to sit up, but the injury on his arm was affected, causing Guo Jia to grin in pain.

"Fengxiao, you and I have been friends for many years, don't you still understand my character, those false courtesies will be waived, you will tell me the specific situation." Jia Rong pressed Guo Jia and asked.

Guo Jia sorted out his thoughts and said slowly: "After coming out of the general's mansion today, walking on the road, I faintly felt that someone was following behind me, but then I thought that this was Chang'an, so I didn't take it to heart, who expected that when I was about to walk into the mansion just now, two black-clothed people came out of the mansion, one left and one right, carrying daggers to kill me, the costume and the lone wolf soldier were quite imaginable, fortunately, the guards on the left and right were loyal and struggled forward, and finally the two guards were all killed, and the arms of the lowly were also stabbed. ”

Jia Rong exclaimed, "The man in black came out of your mansion? ”

"Exactly, the lowly is also very curious, how these people got in, and it was daytime, and it was impossible for the maids and servants in the palace not to find the traces of these people." Guo Jia also expressed the doubts in his heart.

"Feng Xiao recuperates from his injuries with peace of mind, and the matter of arresting the man in black will be handed over to me, no matter who it is, if he intends to assassinate the officials of the Xiliang Army, he must not let it go." Jia Rong said with relief.

As soon as he returned to the general's mansion and sat down, Zhang Xiu came to say with an ugly face: "Lord, Lord Zhang Li encountered a man in black on the way back to the mansion."

Jia Rong grabbed Zhang Xiu and exclaimed, "What? How is Master Zhang? ”

"It's fine, but he was stabbed in the back, the weapon of the man in black was coated with poison, and Huada was heading to Zhang's mansion."

Jia Rong let go of his hands and said coldly: "No matter what the identity of these black-clothed people is, in three days, find them out, and order the lone wolf soldiers to closely protect the various officials of the Xiliang Army, without any mistakes, and pay close attention to the situation in the city, General Ben doesn't want to see any more officials such a thing." ”

"No!" Zhang Xiu's eyes also flashed with anger, as the commander of the lone wolf soldiers, how could he have encountered such a thing, committing crimes under their noses one after another, and the methods were quite similar to those of the lone wolf soldiers, even the weapons used were the daggers used by the lone wolf soldiers a few years ago.
