Chapter 194: Potential Threats
Lu Ming himself has no good way, for the people behind the scenes, they now have only one clue, and the other party is still hiding and can't find anyone.
Yesterday, the team of people who pretended to be the guards of the Qi Palace, so far they haven't even found a shadow.
The angry emperor almost disbanded the Hundred Cavalry Division, if it weren't for the urgent need for employment, the Hundred Cavalry Division would have been pulled out and cut down from top to bottom.
As the eyes and ears of the emperor, he didn't even know what was happening in the capital, let alone a little farther away.
The emperor simply didn't care about this matter anymore, and the forbidden army was all withdrawn, and he was only responsible for guarding the palace.
The capital is now fully guarded by the sharp soldiers of the big battalion in Beijing, and all the officials and Jin Wuwei who used to patrol the streets have been withdrawn, and the management of the city defense has also been handed over to the sharp soldiers of the big battalion.
In addition to the 3,000 Ruishi under Lu Ming's control, the remaining 17,000 Ruishi were all in charge of the King of Qi.
It can be said that except for the fact that the city gate is not closed and the capital is not allowed to enter or exit, the rest of the arrangements are exactly the same as those during the war, which shows the emperor's determination to catch the people behind the scenes.
With the entry of 3,000 Ruishi into the slums, the slums, which were not very lively, became even more deserted.
Not to mention people on the street, not even a wild dog can be seen.
A gentle breeze blew and rolled up clouds of dust.
There was not a single sound heard around except for the wheezing of the big battalion of sharp soldiers.
The slums where more than 100,000 people live are like ghost towns at the moment, and you can't see the green smoke coming out of the chimneys at noon.
Everyone was nervously huddled in their own rooms, and they didn't dare to take a breath.
Even the oldest old man had never seen such a formation.
For decades, there have been few officials in the slums, let alone these sharp soldiers, not once.
The presence of so many soldiers at the same time made the already insecure people feel even more frightened.
Especially those who already have a criminal record, seeing these soldiers is like seeing a demon asking for their lives.
"Yun Yu, where do we start now?"
Lu Ming looked at the slums that looked like an empty city, and didn't know how he was going to investigate, could it be that he searched them one by one?
Even if it takes a lot of time, and the people here are not expected to cooperate.
"I heard that there are four bad places in the slums, they are the sewage alley when I first came in, I have cleaned it up last time, don't worry about it this time, and there are three are rotten gambling alley, flower willow alley and ghost alley, these three places are the gathering place of the evil people in the entire slum, if you want to clean up here, first of all, these three alleys must be cleared."
Before Yun Yu investigated, he thought that all the people here were poor.
It was only after the investigation that it was discovered that it was not just these poor people who were here.
There are also those who use the chaos here as a cover and specialize in those dirty businesses.
For example, the gambling house in the rotten gambling alley is also the largest money lender in the slums.
I often trick some poor people into gambling, and when they lose all of them, they lend them money, and when these people can't afford to pay it back, the whole family will be taken back and sold.
Most of the people who picked up customers in Hualiu Lane came this way.
As for Haunt Alley, it is the darkest place in the entire slum, where it is known as all the villains.
From those who steal chickens and dogs to the most vicious outlaws, you can find them there.
At the same time, Ghost Alley is also the largest place to sell stolen goods in the entire slums, and even the entire capital, or the entire Daqian, where they never ask where they come from, as long as you can bring them here, they dare to leave home.
And there is also an existence similar to an underground killer organization here, as long as the money is in place, there is no job they dare not take, and sixty percent of the cases in the capital are related to the people who live in the ghost alley.
"Which one to start with?"
Lu Ming felt that his hands couldn't hold it anymore.
Lu Criminal Buster Ming, can't wait to return a bright place here.
"Divide the troops directly, three ways at the same time, so many soldiers will definitely not be able to hide from those who have a heart, and if you deal with any of them first, some people will run out."
The reason why Yun Yu arranged this was because he felt that Qu Er might be in one of these three places, and if he could be caught at this opportunity, it would be a big deal.
"Listen to you! Captain Feng, Captain Zhao, and Captain Lei, the three of you each lead 1,000 sharp soldiers, and go to Rotten Gambling Alley, Hualiu Alley, and Ghost Alley respectively, and you must not let those people escape. ”
"No!"
The three lieutenants each led a thousand men and quickly divided their troops and set off.
Yun Yu didn't follow anyone, standing aside and observing the structure of the slum.
Most of them are simple one-story mud houses, the streets are very narrow, and sewage and garbage are basically everywhere.
The foul smell almost formed a substance in front of Yun Yu's eyes.
"I thought the sewage alley was dirty enough, but I didn't expect it to be the cleanest place here, which is ironic!"
Yun Yu looked at this, the slum appeared almost at the same time as the capital, and it was a miracle that there had been no plague here for so many years!
If it had been placed elsewhere, and the rotten and foul smell could be seen everywhere, then disease would have been rampant.
The poor people who chose to live here in the first place were really lucky!
"Grope~ Don't say it, I really can't stand it, if this is placed in the inner city, it is estimated that the city will already be empty, and there are still more than 100,000 people here, it's really unimaginable."
Lu Ming sighed while vomiting.
"You only see the squalor here, but I see the danger here, let this place develop, it will be a matter of time before the plague breaks out, and then it will not be as simple as a slum, it is estimated that the entire capital and even the surrounding areas will not be spared."
This is also the reason why Yun Yu had to clean up the slums at that time, the stench of the sewage alley was incomparable, and the rotting vegetable leaves, animal carcasses, and even human carcasses floated on the water, and in some places they were even blocked by these things.
It's no wonder that there is no outbreak of plague if this continues!
"Is there even a danger of a plague outbreak? So why hasn't anyone said it before? ”
A touch of horror appeared on Lu Ming's face, there are more than one million people living in the capital of Daqian, if there is an outbreak of plague here, it will be a catastrophe for the entire Daqian, especially when there is a martial country outside, as soon as the plague breaks out here, it is estimated that the entire Daqian will fall into the flames of war.
"You tell me, who's going to say? Who cares about the people here? Needless to say, no one will come here just for those officials who patrol the streets, let alone those who are officials, they don't know the situation here if they haven't seen it, and even if they know, they will probably let it develop, who will tell you, unless he doesn't want that official hat. ”
