Chapter 103: Destroying the Cave Fragrance House
Xu Da said when he heard this: "This is right. After speaking, he led Liu Bowen and smiled and strode towards the barracks where the prisoners were detained.
When I got to the place where the prisoners were being held, I could only hear the sound of crying inside, as if something had happened.
Xu Da and the others stepped inside, only to see a team of soldiers bravely panicking, holding knives and guns at the prisoners who were about to move.
Xu Da took a step forward, walked in front of a commanding general, and asked sharply, "What happened here, why are you so at a loss." ”
As soon as the general saw General Xu Da arrive, he hurriedly saluted and returned: "General Xu, just before the assassin broke into the camp where the prisoners were held and killed several prisoners. The prisoners were all in danger, and in their panic, they raised their voices and shouted, so that the general was alarmed. ”
Xu Da asked, "Who was the person killed by the assassins?" ”
The general hesitated for a moment and replied, "All of them were brought back by the general last night, and for some reason, several of them were actually killed by the assassins." ”
Xu Da was shocked and hurriedly said, "Take me to see it." ”
The general immediately led Xu Da and the others to the edge of a cage, only to see that the cage was covered with blood and there were several corpses. Xu Da rushed into it, and saw that the black-clothed man captured in Dongxiangju last night had fallen to the ground, with three arrows in his waist, and he had obviously been killed for a long time.
Xu Da paused and said, "Strategist, it's still too late." ”
Liu Bowen bent down, carefully examined the corpse on the ground, stood up and said to Xu Da: "This person was hit by three arrows, obviously the assassin in the army is here for him." Now that the person is dead, General Xu will see if he can find some clues from the corpse. ”
When Xu Da heard Liu Bowen's reminder, he immediately came to his senses, bent down, looked at the corpse of the man in black, and casually pulled out a feather arrow from the waist of the man in black, and examined it carefully. Suddenly, there was a look of sudden realization on his face.
When Liu Bowen saw it, he hurriedly asked, "General Xu, do you have any insights?" ”
Xu Da pointed to the arrow and said: "If General Ben's guess is correct, these assassins are the assassins who stabbed Wu Guogong on the mountain that day, and you see that this arrow is the same as the arrow that injured Wu Guogong that day." ”
When Liu Bowen heard this, he groaned a little and then said: "It seems that the black-clothed man who assassinated Dongxiang Village this time must be Chen Youliang's spy killer who infiltrated Yingtian City. However, now that the Dongxiang Residence has been destroyed, it is reasonable for these people to enter the army and assassinate the arrested people for their own safety. ”
Xu Da asked: "Military advisor, now that the leading man in black is dead, and the opportunity to arrest them has been lost, what should I do?" These are all faults that Xu Da failed to prevent in advance. ”
Liu Bowen said: "This is the case, General Xu does not need to be concerned about this, according to my inference, the young people who have lost the hiding place of Dongxiang have not been able to make many waves, and it is not enough to become its climate." Generals don't have to blame themselves too much. ”
Although Liu Bowen advised him, Xu Da still sighed.
A few days later, under the care of the military doctors, Zhu Yuanzhang's arrow wound was recovered, and Liu Bowen told Zhu Yuanzhang that when he was ill, Chu Liuyan and Xu Da led troops to surround Dongxiangju, and as a result, they not only caught the spies sent to the army by Chen Youliang, the king of Han, but also dug out a secret passage from outside Yingtian City to Yingtian City to inform Zhu Yuanzhang.
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he was very happy, although he was injured by a poisoned arrow and stayed on the sickbed for more than ten days, but the spy in Yingtian City was destroyed, in addition to this great trouble, he would have no worries about fighting against Chen Youliang, the king of Han in the future.
So under the joy, Zhu Yuanzhang ignored the dissuasion of the doctors, and made a celebration banquet and personally toasted Xu Da and Chu Liuyan in recognition of Xu Da and Chu Liuyan's achievements.
At this time, Chen Youliang, who was in Hanyang City, also got a report.
The man in black, who had lost his hiding voice in Yingtian City, wanted to sneak back to Hanyang City quietly. A group of people disguised themselves as people from the city business traveler in an attempt to break through the checkpoint, but when they passed the checkpoint, they were recognized by Zhu Yuanzhang's soldiers and chased all the way behind.
When he returned to Hanyang, he was left alone with a small leader.
The assassination plan failed, and the little boss originally didn't dare to meet Chen Youliang, but as soon as he returned to Hanyang City, he was immediately targeted by the secret agents under Chen Youliang, the king of Han.
The little boss originally thought that he was going to be incognito, but he didn't think that Zhengxiang, who slept in the inn in the middle of the night, let people take him out of the bed, and was directly knocked unconscious, put on a sack and took him away.
"Click", the little boss was woken up by a peculiar voice. When I opened my eyes, I saw a huge cage hanging above my head, and there were two big snakes in the cage, the thickness of a bucket, staring at him from a distance, looking like they were ready to choose people and devour, it was amazing, and the two snakes were already standing up, not making a terrifying snoring sound.
The little leader only felt that the cold hair stood on end, the waistcoat was hairy, and the sound of the two-headed snake was a strange and terrifying sound that he had just heard.
The snake salivated from the head of the snake's tongue, and fell to the ground within three feet of itself with a "click", causing a faint echo in the dark stone room, as if it had fallen into an empty space.
Where was this, the little leader was about to move his hands and feet, but he couldn't move at all, and when he looked down, he saw that his hands and feet were tied, and they were firmly locked to the ground.
"Save people."
The little leader roared for a while, but no one paid any attention to him, only two big snakes were frightened by his loud shouts, and they were cramped and uneasy in the cage hanging above their heads, and the bodies of the two big snakes were entangled in one place, and the mottled and ugly patterns were extremely disgusting in front of the little leader's eyes.
With the collision of the big snake, the cage that fell also shook violently, and it looked like it was about to fall, and the frightened little leader hurriedly silenced him.
Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door of the stone room, "Someone is coming", and the little leader couldn't help but feel happy in his heart.
But as soon as the stone chamber was opened, they felt that a noble man in fresh clothes walked in with his head bowed, and the little leader took advantage of the dim oil lamp in the stone chamber to see clearly that it was actually Chen Youliang, the king of Han, and some servants who entered the stone chamber.
The little boss knew that this was a terrible situation, and the place he was in might be the underground stone prison secretly set up by Chen Youliang, the king of Han who was feared by everyone and worried. The little leader knew that he was not good, so he quickly pretended to be unconscious and closed his eyes.
Chen Youliang saw such a virtue of the person, so he said to one of the guards beside him: "Go, wake this person up for this king, this king has something to ask him." ”
The guard complied, walked up to the man, lifted his toes, and kicked the little leader three points below his navel.
This part is the root of a man's life, the so-called fainting but not dying, suddenly the little leader screamed heartbreakingly, and fainted again.
Chu Liuyan was a little dissatisfied and said to the guards: "This king asked you to wake up this person, this is good, this person fainted again, hurry up and wake him up." ”
The guard hurriedly responded: "The subordinate is wrong, the subordinate didn't grasp the balance just now, King Han, the subordinate will wake up this person immediately." ”
So saying, the guard took out a thick cowhide whip from his body, opened it and slashed it, and then whipped it in the face of the little leader lying on the ground.
The skin was the most tender, and although the little leader fainted, he couldn't bear the pain of this whip that hurt into the bone marrow, and suddenly woke up with a miserable howl.
As soon as Chen Youliang saw it, he immediately asked the chains on the little boss to be opened.
Chen Youliang opened his mouth and asked the little boss who had just been woken up: "This king sent you to Yingtian to do things, and told you to come to Hanyang as soon as the matter is over to inform this king, why did you go back to Hanyang, but did not come to report to this king." ”
The little leader hurriedly knelt down and cried and said: "King Han, it's not that the villain doesn't want to report to King Han, but he just mixed into Yingtian's squad to kill Zhu Yuanzhang and let the deal be exposed, but now instead of killing Zhu Yuanzhang, he was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinates." ”
When Chen Youliang heard this, he immediately shouted angrily: "Nonsense, five days ago, the flying pigeons in Yingtian City spread a word that they had dug the tunnel from Yingtian City to the outside of Yingtian City, since the tunnel had been dug through, how could the whole army be wiped out, are you so stupid that you can't even go through the tunnel." ”
The little boss saw that Chen Youliang was angry, and replied tremblingly: "King Han, the tunnel has indeed been opened, but for some reason, Dongxiangju was actually recognized by someone, and General Xu Da under Zhu Yuanzhang led troops to destroy Dongxiangju. ”
Chen Youliang was shocked when he heard this, and asked with a cold face: "Then what happened to General Di." ”
The little leader replied: "General Di was arrested in Dongxiangju, and we were afraid that General Di would confess to us, and seeing that it was not good, we mixed into the army and treated General Di and a few people who knew our names and surnames. ”
Chen Youliang suddenly smiled and asked, "Then General Di, how are they living and dying now?" ”
"King Han, don't worry, General Di and the others have already met the king of Hades."
