Chapter 110: Killing people is not enough
Hearing this, Zhong Hui clapped his hands, "Yes, this group of people may not only have killers in this place, it is possible, there are killers in every place, just wait for me to relax my vigilance, and then come out to give me a fatal blow." He turned around and said to Yan Chong, "Lord Yan, I think it is necessary to carefully investigate some of the more remote streets, and whether there are any suspicious characters recently." If there are not enough people, I will send soldiers from the city defense battalion to assist you in the investigation. ”
Coming out of the Tingwei Mansion, Zhong Hui went straight to the city defense camp.
After discussing with Yan Chong, Zhong Hui felt that this assassination incident should be the enemy's way of casting a wide net, catching more fish, and killing a blind cat with a mouse. Since this is the case, he is going to immediately send someone to find out about the personnel changes on several nearby streets and see if he can find a clue.
Zhong Hui came out of the Tingwei Mansion and walked down the main road, thinking about how to investigate the matter. Suddenly, there was a shout of killing.
"Kill, brothers, kill this dog general and avenge the big boss. ”
With a few shouts from the leader, more than a dozen people rushed out from the side of the road, holding shoddy weapons in their hands. When the surrounding people saw this, they scattered and fled. The target of this group of people was Zhong Hui, so they didn't care about the people who fled, and went straight to Zhong Hui to kill them. Zhong Hui looked at the people who rushed out, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"It's you who are waiting. With that, he moved back.
At the same time that Zhong Hui retreated, from his side, the number seven or eight black-clothed people suddenly appeared. These people are all extraordinary, and their weapons are hidden on their bodies, and in just a moment, they are fighting with this group of people. I don't know if this group of thieves is too poor in martial arts, or they are frightened by the appearance of these black-clothed people, as soon as these black-clothed people make a move, the momentum is like lightning, the move is fatal, and one is killed, and in a short time, more than ten thieves were killed.
Zhong Hui saw that the other party was about to be slaughtered, so he hurriedly said, "Keep your mouth alive." ”
These soldiers who came out of the dark sentry department of the night battalion did not disappoint Zhong Hui in this actual combat exercise, whether it was in terms of camouflage, protection, or combat effectiveness, Zhong Hui was very satisfied. Pressing the assassination of these people to the city defense camp, Zhong Hui faintly felt that this assassination and the last assassination had little connection, because the methods of the two sides were different, and the style of the killers was also different, and it was obvious that they were not a group of people.
When he came to the big tent, Zhong Hui asked people to bring up this group of thieves, looked at the leader one, and asked, "Who are you?"
The one at the top, with a long beard and a suspicious face, looked at Zhong Hui, "Phew." If you want to kill or chop, you just have to come, if Lao Tzu blinks his eyes, it is not you Niu Sanye. ”
Zhong Hui smiled coldly, "Push it out and cut it." ”
The soldiers in the back immediately dragged out the person who called himself Niu Sanye, and this Niu San was also stubborn, and he was pushed out, and he didn't forget to scold Zhong Hui all the time. After a while, with the sound of flesh and iron contact outside the tent door and the sound of blood rushing down, the remaining people in the tent were already frightened, looking at Zhong Hui, they all grabbed the ground with their heads and shouted.
"My lord, let me go, the little one was tricked. ”
"My lord, my lord, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, my lord. ”
"Adults, small ones, little ones, all of them. ”
"The villain's name is Erzhu, there is a small one and an old one, and there is a paralyzed mother-in-law at home, waiting for dinner, begging the adults to let go, and the little one is willing to be a cow and ......a horse for the adult."
After such a fright, this group of people did not have the toughness at the beginning, and some people didn't even know what to say.
"Shut up, and then, whatever the commander asks, what you answer, and whoever is dishonest again, send him to see the fool just now. One of the guards next to him shouted.
"Yes, yes, what the little ones know, they must tell the adults truthfully. The one at the front said tremblingly.
Zhong Hui looked at them and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you and why did you come to assassinate me?"
The people below look at me, I look at you, and the person at the front said: "Back to the adults, the little ones are the thieves of Huotou Mountain." This offense to the adults was all Niu San's idea just now, and he said that he wanted to avenge the big boss. He threatened us and said that if we didn't come, he would kill us all. My lord, if we knew that he asked us to kill an adult, we would not dare to come if he killed us. As he spoke, he began to kowtow.
Zhong Hui listened to his words and muffled, "Then do you know that besides you, there are any other bandits who are ready to assassinate me?"
When the group heard this, they hurriedly shook their heads, "No, my lord, we have never heard of anyone who wants to assassinate you, if we ......"
"Alright, shut up. Come here, take them down, arrange them to Battalion Commander Zhang, and say that I will give him a few miscellaneous soldiers and let him train them well. ”
"Yes, Lord. So saying, the man took the thief down. When the thieves heard that their lives had been saved, they were relieved, but when they heard that they were going to be soldiers again, although they were extremely reluctant, they did not dare to wail loudly, for fear that Zhong Hui would be unhappy, so they cut them down.
After dealing with the group, Zhong Hui sat in his seat, thinking about today's events.
The people who came to assassinate this time were a group of bandits from Huotou Mountain, and this group of people, without a leader, would not be able to become a climate. It's just that I didn't expect that not long after I arrived in Beijing, I was assassinated twice. It seems that this official will become more and more difficult to be a person in the future. Thinking of this bell will also be a big head, I wanted to live a peaceful life, but I didn't expect this incident to happen, it was nerve-wracking.
"Come on, go and find Camp Commander Xu. ”
Distress is distress, and what needs to be done still has to be done. Immediately asked Xu Hua to send soldiers from the city defense battalion to cooperate with the Tingwei Mansion to investigate the streets on the two routes from Zhonghui's residence to the city defense camp and the imperial palace.
Two days later.
Zhong Hui's conjecture at the beginning is really useful. Xu Hua investigated that there were many new faces on three streets in the past month to half a month, but all of these new faces disappeared after the day Zhong was assassinated. I asked some businesses and residents in the surrounding area, and they said that they had never seen these people, and they looked ordinary and couldn't remember their specific appearances.
Hearing the news, Zhong Hui held his forehead, which was a pain in his head. It seems that the other party was premeditated, and after doing things, there was no trace left, except for a few dead bodies.
Zhong Hui was busy in the city defense camp until the evening, listening to Xu Hua's report, and doing some analysis, even after the analysis, Zhong Hui still didn't have a clue, dragging his tired body back to his mansion. As soon as she entered the door, Sui Yuting walked over.
