Chapter One Hundred and Two

Nicole didn't have the slightest impression of the name Dark, which made Roddy completely dead. 【Reading.com】

From Ziggy to Gordon, none of the old generals around the old Duke Tulip knew the details of that Duck, and even Nicole had never heard of this Duck. Luo Di really couldn't understand in his heart, with Dak's high archery skills and the great feud he said, why these people had never heard of it?

Could it be that Duck lied to himself? But the hatred and anger in his eyes that day did not look like a disguise.

After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't think of a clue, so I could only ask my guards to step up their vigilance.

The news of Duke Tulip's assassination leaked out, and the news immediately spread throughout the imperial capital. There were a lot of people on the street that day.

Abbasid XI immediately ordered the Imperial Security Office to investigate the Assassins within ten days. It is said that His Majesty the Emperor was furious and passed the commander of the Imperial Capital Security Office to the palace and scolded him fiercely. It's just that after Luo Di heard about it, he smiled coldly, I'm afraid that the emperor was angry not because he was assassinated, but because he was not stabbed to death by an assassin, right?

This is just a pain for the soldiers of the security station in the imperial capital. The soldiers of the brigade patrolled the streets day and night, they walked through every street and alley in the imperial capital, rummaged through every piece of blue bricks and stones, and every pedestrian on the road became an important suspect -- I heard the Duke say that the person who assassinated him used a long bow and arrow, and then all the arms shop owners in the entire imperial capital were in bad luck.

What? You haven't sold bows and arrows to anyone in your shop lately? What about last year? What about the year before last? How can you be sure that the assassin wouldn't have planned for years to assassinate the greatest Tulip Duke of the Empire? What if the bow and arrow used by the assassin was bought three years ago? Sorry, please hand over all the records of bows and arrows sold in the past three years...... That's easy, just put on the chains, and you can go back to the police station with us and explain slowly......

What? You don't sell bows and arrows in your shop? That assassin can't use a bow and arrow this time, maybe he will use a sword next time! Don't talk nonsense! Take out all the weapons for three years...... Uh-huh? You say you're here; Don't even sell swords? Just make fire ballistae and stone carts for the emperor's ** subordinates? That's worth it! If that hateful assassin gets his hands on such a weapon of mass destruction! Don't say that the safety of our greatest Tulip Duke is in danger! Even the imperial capital is afraid that it will suffer a large-scale terrorist attack! Don't talk nonsense! Take out the account book! Or go back and talk to us slowly!

What does this guy say? You don't sell swords or any weapons here? Then how did you get caught? Who are you? Damn! Your shop sells soy sauce? Which bastard got him back!!

All the people who had entered and exited the gates of the imperial capital in the past three days were brought back to the security station, and all the hotels and clubhouses in the city were raided 17 or 8 times by the soldiers of the security center! The prisons of the imperial capital security center were gradually insufficient, and a large number of "suspects" could not be stuffed into the prisons of the security center, which was already overcrowded. In the end, the commander of the security station was helpless, and finally had an idea and came up with a good idea. Ordered people to vacate all the toilets, firewood rooms, and kitchens in the security station, and replaced them with iron doors and windows, which reluctantly stuffed the mighty "suspects" into all corners of the security station.

When the officials in charge of the "interrogation" saw so many suspects who needed to be "immediately intensified," their eyes almost popped out, and their jaws had already dropped to the ground. I could only shake my spirits, work overtime and devote myself to the intense investigation and interrogation work, and finally it took seven days and seven nights to take out eight times the ancestors of these people, plus when they entered the city, where they went, and how to cross the threshold with their feet. But the end result disappointed the officials of the police station, who had been fighting for days and nights. Although many old cases have been found among the arrested suspects - for example, the thief who stole a horse from the house of Viscount Vanant seven years ago, the gangster leader who escaped during the fight between two groups of ruffians in the north of the city six years ago, the thirteenth concubine of Lord Garrison five years ago, and now the groom who has become the owner of the soy sauce shop......

It should be said that the results are remarkable. After this severe search, the law and order situation in the imperial capital was greatly improved. Patrolled by squads of exhausted vigilante soldiers on the streets. More than 100 years after the death of Abbasid the Great, the imperial capital actually re-achieved "the road is not left behind, and the night is not closed." "How many abducted and deceived people have been caught. Later generations in history have given high praise to this largest search operation in the imperial capital in the past 100 years: although this search failed to achieve the purpose of apprehending the assassins, the improvement of law and order in the imperial capital is obvious to all. When the officials concerned reported the matter to His Majesty the Emperor, His Majesty was overjoyed and ordered that such a large-scale and strict search operation would be carried out on a regular basis every year in the future, and that it would be considered to be extended to the entire empire as appropriate!

Because of this large-scale "strict search operation, which cracked down on a large number of criminal forces," later generations have colloquially referred to this kind of operation as "strike hard......

After releasing a large number of innocent people, the commander of the Imperial Capital Security Station gritted his teeth and issued another order: even if he digs three feet into the ground, he must find out the cunning, insidious and vicious assassin!

Huh, the officials of the public security station, who had become red-eyed, cried. The soldiers of the security station, who had already walked through every alley of the imperial capital and wore out a few pairs of shoes, cried.

After ten days, with the efforts of the public security office, after strict verification and evidence collection, a total of six Jiangyang thieves, ten ** thieves (prostitution thieves are more popular than thieves in these years), 17 habitual thieves, and three underworld leaders.

Later, the commander of the public security station jumped into the river and closed his eyes, and it took two days to finally write a report of about 100,000 words at the cost of cutting off 3,400 heads.

The report states that the captured criminals were complicit in the Assassins.

At the same time, the commander of the public security station pointed out keenly that this assassination of the Duke was a long-planned, extremely deep, and ambitious conspiracy! The purpose was to get rid of the meritorious Duke Tulip of the Empire, and finally achieve the goal of subverting the rule of the Empire.

In this report, the police officer repeatedly expounded his views from the front, the back, the side, different arguments, and different arguments, and finally came to the above shocking conclusion!

This is not simply an assassination, but a premeditated, shocking conspiracy of evil forces at home and abroad to subvert the rule of the Bright Empire!

After handing in this report, the commander of the police station immediately ordered his men to prepare the coffin, invited the priest of the religious office, personally selected the pasture, and prepared the poisoned wine. As soon as His Majesty finished reading this report, he immediately committed suicide.

Unexpectedly, there was no news from the palace. The commander was apprehensive for two days, and finally received a commendation order from His Majesty the Emperor. This commander who had survived the catastrophe later inquired in many ways to find out that his report was too lengthy and profound, and almost all the ministers, including His Majesty the Emperor, did not have the patience to read it halfway through it and passed it smoothly.

Just when all the officials and soldiers of the Imperial Capital Public Security Office shed tears for the rest of their lives.

On this morning, a carriage was followed by a dozen samurai in civilian clothes and rode horses, slowly leaving the city from the south gate of the imperial capital.

It was only ten miles after the carriage had left the city that the windows of the carriage opened, revealing the heroic face of Duke Tulip.

Looking at the outline of the magnificent city wall of the imperial capital that was gradually moving away behind him, Luo Di smiled bitterly: "Is this going to the south to open a mountain?" I heard that the barbarians in those mountains don't like to take a bath very much, and I don't know if it's really ......."

Rand bowed down on his horse and said, "Lord Duke, we have already walked out of the imperial capital, for your safety, you better not open the window...... The terrain here is more complicated, and if someone sneaks up with a hidden arrow, I'm afraid it's not very safe. ”

Roddy nodded, closed the window, but sighed in his heart, if he marched with a large group of wolf tooth troops, he would not have to hide in the carriage so depressed.

The Wolf Tooth Army has been officially separated from the Central Cavalry Corps by order of the Emperor, and the refurbished Wolf Tooth Army has replenished the troops lost in the northwest, and the two cavalry have broken away from Thor's Whip and become the cavalry regiment directly under the great Duke Tulip.

Although it is separated from the Central Cavalry Corps, which is known as the most elite army of the empire, which makes all the officers and soldiers a little reluctant, it is a more supreme honor to become the cavalry regiment directly under Duke Tulip, the military god of the empire!

His Majesty the Emperor easily agreed to Luo Di's request this time, in fact, he calculated that the 20,000 cavalry would not be of much use in the south.

The mountain barbarians are not like the steppe alien races of the Great Moon Kingdom, they are all divided into hundreds of large and small tribe stockades, scattered in the hills with complex terrain that stretch for nearly thousands of miles in the southeast of Big 6.

No matter how powerful the wolf-tooth army is, what role can the cavalry do in the vast mountains? In the rugged mountain roads and steep terrain, the superiority of the cavalry is completely lost. The emperor thought of this, and the Marquis of Caroline naturally thought of this. So this time, the emperor might as well pretend to be generous and happily hand over the Wolf Tooth Army to Luo Di.

It's just that Caroline's old fox is still on guard after all. As the Minister of War, he found a few excuses to postpone the reorganization of the Wolf Tooth Army for a few days. Anyway, try to make some trouble for Roddy. However, when His Majesty the Emperor saw that the peace talks were successful, he immediately ordered to urge Luo Di to go to the south on the road, and he could not delay for a day. Luo Di had no choice but to take a team of Tulip Mansion guards and set foot on the road to the southeast hills......
