Chapter 148: Hand in hand

Several of the housekeepers on duty huddled in the corner and fell asleep, not even knowing that the heating fire was extinguished, and they were hit on the head by the approaching military master, and passed out directly.

The door of the village opened, and the soldiers of the mixed battalion who were ambushed outside quietly entered the village, pierced the window paper with a small bamboo pipe, and blew ecstasy incense inside.

More than 200 Ding inhaled the incense of ecstasy in their sleep, and slept more and more sweetly, even if there was thunder in their ears, they couldn't explode, and the next thing was of course the wolf thief group entering the village to sweep up.

When Lan Tianyi and the others opened all the warehouse doors, they all hissed and inhaled cold air, and several large warehouses were full of important materials such as grain, iron ore, and salt, so much that you couldn't believe it.

"Make a fortune, hehe......" Lan Tianyi grinned and smirked, there were so many things that he lost his temper.

There were a large number of horse-drawn carts and ox-carts in the village, and the soldiers lit torches, worked together to load Dongdong into the cart, and then pulled them out, and waited for the empty carriages and ox-carts outside the village to come in and continue loading.

"Move the grain and other things first, and then the iron ore last."

There are too many Dongdong, and it can't be emptied at one time, Lantian Yi was entangled for a while, so he had to make a choice, the iron ore was too heavy, and the transportation was inconvenient, so he could only take the grain away first, and finally pull the iron ore if there was an empty car.

Nearly 1,000 officers and men of the mixed battalion worked together to quickly empty the grain, salt, and other important materials that had been placed in several large warehouses, and only a few truckloads of iron ore were loaded.

"Brothers, withdraw!"

Lan Tianyi reluctantly looked at the mountains of iron ore, and reluctantly gave the order to retreat, in fact, the ox carts and carriages full of Dongdong had already been on the road, and all that was left was a hundred or so soldiers who were responsible for monitoring the guards, and they quickly disappeared into the vast night.

It wasn't until noon that the family who was stunned by the ecstasy incense woke up, and found that Dongdong was gone, and he was immediately frightened.

There were also Liu Tang, the county magistrate of Pingnan County, and a group of fast arresters, who were busy at the scene of the crime, looking for clues to the crime, but they didn't find anything, the only thing that could be confirmed was that there were a lot of criminals, at least hundreds of people, and thousands of ox carts and carriages were dispatched to move so many things to the east, of course, it was not really a good move, at least the large amount of iron ore accumulated was only a little less, which also indirectly proved that this group of mysterious robbers was quite smart.

Then the fast detective cavalry went out to search, and the eight families also dispatched a large number of people, among which the masters of the rivers and lakes searched all over the circle, but found nothing.

When retreating, the soldiers of the mixed battalion in charge of the palace carefully cleaned up all kinds of traces left on the snow, and the family Ding Su Dai in the village was late, and when he reported and reported to the eight masters, it was already evening, and when a large number of people were dispatched to scout and ride out to search, it was already the next day, and the soldiers of the mixed battalion had a lot of time to run calmly and transfer dirt, and during the day, there were business travelers passing by, even if some traces were left, they were all messed up, and no matter how experienced the head catcher was, he was helpless.

"Check, you must find out who did it!"

Fan Yongdou, the head of the Eight Families, waved his arms and roared, his expression was hideous and terrifying, this time the loss was even greater than the previous times combined, even if there were gold and silver mountains in the family, he couldn't afford to toss continuous losses, the most important thing was that the prestige of the Eight Families was seriously provoked and affected, and he wanted to pull out the hateful robbers at any cost and light the sky lantern.

Some people also suspect that it was Lu Hongniang and her gang who did it, but they couldn't be sure, because the entire Phoenix Legion except for those soldiers who set up card checks, the rest of the others stayed in the barracks to do some kind of one-two-one fancy training, and none of the soldiers went out, but they sent a lot of eyeliners to stare at the outside of the barracks of the Phoenix Legion, monitoring every move of the Phoenix Legion, and even the guard of the Jinyi Guard sent several people to closely monitor around the clock.

It is said that some people reported that the Jin Empire sneaked into the city to spy on intelligence, not only the entire Phoenix Legion was dispatched, but even the border troops stationed in Shanhaiguan Jiancheng were also dispatched, and all the traffic arteries in the city were checked, which made the whole city a mess.

This was originally a rogue trick discussed by Lu Hongniang, Li Qing and Lei Zhenjiang to toss the eight families, but when the blind cat also encountered a dead mouse, he really caught two spies of the Jin Empire, and the other three were shot indiscriminately in the stubborn resistance of the escape, and the other two were injured and absconded, and the soldiers were searching for them throughout the city.

However, in the process of searching, three other hidden assassins suddenly launched an attack, assassinating Lu Hongniang, the commander of the Phoenix Legion, among the three assassins, one of them was an archer with a hundred shots, and an arrow hit Lu Hongniang in the chest, and is currently being rescued urgently.

The dignified favorite concubine of the Son of Heaven, the commander of the first army, and the acting governor of Shanhaiguan were assassinated by assassins, this joke was bigger, and it also provoked the entire Phoenix Legion, searching for assassins from house to house, but anyone who was not the aborigines of the city, they were all arrested, detained first, and then released, and for a while, the temporary prison of the Phoenix Legion was overcrowded.

Of course, when searching, there is a difference in treatment, treating ordinary people, the soldiers of the Phoenix Legion are very polite, carefully searching, and there is no damage to the slightest bit of Dongdong, and no one dares to take any valuable Dongdong by the way, but for the shops or private houses of the eight families, the situation is completely different.

When the search was carried out to the shops or private houses of the eight families, the soldiers' movements were extremely rude, and during the search of the cabinets, some furniture, precious porcelain and other valuable things were accidentally broken, and each soldier's temper was quite hot, and he hesitated a little when asking, or his attitude was a little unpleasant, and he immediately smashed the butt of a gun, beating you to the point that even his own mother could not recognize you, and there were countless small valuable objects that took away some valuable objects, especially the losses of those jewelry stores were too big to be counted.

The shopkeepers were so angry and helpless, report to the official? Don't be kidding, there is a search for assassins everywhere outside, and if you dare to go out at this time, you will be shot as an assassin, don't you hear a few gunshots and screams from time to time outside?

It is said that the three assassins have been captured, but the two wounded spies have not been caught, but the sky is getting dark, and the officers and soldiers have to collect their troops and return to the camp.

In the large camp of the Phoenix Legion, the soldiers of each battalion were queuing up giggling and haggling, handing over the Dongdong to the battalion commander for registration.

"Bah, Zhang Dafa, you bastard, take this thing too?" A battalion commander scolded and viciously smashed a pink belly pocket into the face of a young soldier.
