Chapter 13 Purging the Sect
What's more, Wang Hao believes that Wen Hong has been in Shicheng for so many years, and it is impossible for him to really have no connection with the sect.
Being in the dye vat, it is almost impossible to be alone, which is why Wang Hao dared to kill Li Feng directly.
Of course, Li Feng is the main reason for the current situation in Shicheng, even if he really has no connection with the sect, he will inevitably die.
If it weren't for this, Wang Hao would not act recklessly, after all, he was an official of the imperial court, not an ordinary squire, how could he kill him.
This point Wang Hao and his father Wang Guang is very different, Wang Hao acted decisively and ruthlessly, but Wang Guang was deeply influenced by Confucianism and paid attention to benevolence and righteousness, so he was furious after learning that Yang Ding killed tens of thousands of border soldiers with a plan, so he played against the latter marquis.
But Wang Hao doesn't care about this.
Shicheng is chaotic, the people's hearts are unstable, according to this trend, the common people of Shicheng will sooner or later become suspicious of the imperial court, and thus be bewitched by the sect, and the consequences will be unimaginable in the long run.
So he killed Li Feng as soon as he came up, and put the latter on the charge of defecting to the sect, the main purpose was to stabilize the people's hearts.
"I really can't get out of it, and I'm willing to take all the blame. ”
Wen Hong did not deny it, and responded lightly.
The first time the two met, they didn't get along.
"Okay, you go down first, and in three days, all the people related to the sect in Shicheng will be arrested, and now that Li Feng is dead, don't tell me that you can't even do this little thing, and come to me to report the situation on the third day." ”
Wang Hao ordered that he and Wen Hong have the same official position, and the two are at the same level, but the inspector of the Zhenshen Division can reach the heavens, and has the power of life and death, and his power is much greater than that of Wen Hong, so his attitude towards the latter will be so tough.
"Inspector reassure, I've been waiting for this day for a long time,"
Wen Hong nodded and left.
Wang Hao looked at Wen Hong's departing back, and his brows began to wrinkle slightly.
"The princely guards are not everyone can be, and these guards are equivalent to the most trusted people of the princes, and the future is limitless, several generals with heavy troops in this dynasty were originally guards, but now they are still on the rise, and they are expected to be crowned marquis, how can Wen Hong be willing to stay in the small stone city to be a seven-grade guard?"
Wang Hao couldn't figure out why, even a fool would choose to stay by Fang Linhou's side, and looking at Wen Hong's appearance, he was also a careerist, he must have some unknown purpose in Shicheng.
"Wen Hong is just a Liangyi Realm, but there are a large number of sect disciples in Shicheng, how dare he come here alone, if there is no support from Fang Linhou behind him, no one will believe it. ”
Soon Wang Hao thought of Fang Linhou, only he could mobilize his personal guards.
"What is there in Shicheng that can attract Fang Linhou? There shouldn't be many things he can fancy to, of course, these have nothing to do with me, my duty is to clear the sect's forces, and I will leave after solving the hidden dangers of Shicheng." ”
Wang Hao didn't think about it anymore, and there was no need to think about things that had nothing to do with him.
In the next three days, Shicheng was turbulent, Wen Hong really made a move, and in the past few days, the army has been frequently dispatched, and a large number of squire puppets supported by the sect have been arrested, and the head is rolling for a while.
"My lord, will we be completely offended by the sect if we do this, Shicheng is close to the southern frontier, if the sect forces counterattack, we will not be able to stop it at all. ”
Wen Hong's cronies were worried and extremely worried.
In fact, Wen Hong is not willing to tear his face with the forces of the sect, but Wang Hao's order is in front, and refusal is to resist the order, he is just a small army, where can he dare to disobey the yang and the yin.
"I have reported this matter to Fang Lin Hou, but I have not received a response yet. ”
Wen Hong had already expected this to be the result, so when he first received the order, he had already arranged for his subordinates to go to Huxia County.
Whether it is the sect forces or Wang Hao, he can't afford to offend, and how to deal with it depends on Fang Linhou's intentions.
As soon as he heard Fang Linhou's three words, Wen Hong's subordinates were also relieved, their own adults had a relationship with this character, so it was enough to deal with all the changes that followed.
And Wang Hao also got a report at this time, although there have been many battles in Shicheng in the past three days, but the disciples of the sect failed to stop the army after all, and they were all killed one by one, and the blood flowed like a river.
"Wen Hong and the sect are indeed connected, don't look at the fact that they have killed a lot of people during this time, but they are all ordinary characters, at most they are just cultivators of the One Yuan Realm. ”
In the county office, Wang Hao put down the information in his hand and muttered to himself.
He was not surprised by this result, it was normal for Shicheng officials to collude with the sect, otherwise Wen Hong would not have stayed here for so long, he had already been assassinated by the disciples of the sect, and the reason why Wang Hao did not target Wen Hong like Li Feng certainly had his own considerations.
One is because of Wen Hong's identity, after all, he used to be Fang Linhou's personal guard, if he killed him directly, he would completely offend Fang Linhou, although Wang Hao has the identity of the inspector of the Zhenshen Division, but the consequences of offending a prince are still very serious, and Wang Hao will certainly not do this kind of thing unless he has to.
The second is that Wang Hao still wants to use the army under Wen Hong, otherwise he alone will not be able to clear out the forces of the sect.
"After three days, the sect's forces will definitely converge a lot, but I will become more dangerous. ”
Wang Hao is very clear about his current situation, if the imperial court has not issued a ban on martial arts, those people in the sect will definitely not dare to start, but now that the two sides have stood on opposite sides, the sect's attitude will inevitably become tough in order to deter the imperial court.
"Presumably, my letter for help, Lin Hou, should have seen it too. ”
Wang Hao put down the information in his hand, having said that, there was still a distance from Huxia County to Shicheng, and Fang Linhou could not arrive in a short time, so Wang Hao still had to be careful to prevent the sect forces from jumping over the wall in a hurry.
"I informed my father before I came to Stone City, and I guess the person my father arranged should be arriving soon. ”
This is the reason why Wang Hao dared to suppress the sect alone, with the subordinates of the Marquis of Dingyuan, he was able to solve many opponents that Wang Hao could not resist.
Soon it was the third day, and as night fell, the fighting in the outside world gradually subsided.
The disciples of the sect planted in Shicheng suffered great losses, and only a few of them managed to escape to the southern frontier, so it can be said that this operation has been a complete victory.
It didn't take long for only sporadic sounds to be left in the stone city, it should be soldiers cleaning the battlefield, as early as the first day Wang Hao issued a curfew, it is impossible for civilians to walk around.
Wang Hao was pacing in the courtyard of the county government, and he was waiting for Wen Hong to come and report on the battle.
However, until late at night, the gate of the county government was not opened.
"Strange. ”
Wang Hao was a little uneasy in his heart, he had already asked Wen Hong to come to report on the third day, it shouldn't have appeared until now.
At this moment, a cold killing intent rose from outside the county office.
