Although Jiangnan Yanyulou had made careful arrangements, the action that started early the next morning did not start smoothly, and there was only one reason, Zhou Xiongqi had already started in advance.

From the time when the sky was just dawning and only the early stalls were busy with work, the forbidden army of the brigade and those elite soldiers acted together, led by the four Taibao, and the clearance operation commanded by Zhou Lirong of the Taibao began.

These officers and soldiers were outnumbered, divided into groups of soldiers and horses, and the masters who were good at strength were responsible for breaking through and inspecting, and many strongholds were destroyed in an instant.

The thieves in these strongholds were all temporarily recruited from the border passes, and there were no particularly powerful players in terms of strength, and they were subdued one after another under the surprise attack carefully prepared by the official army.

It turned out that after Zhou Xiongqi sent Xu Fei out of the Prime Minister's Mansion, he immediately found his own Taibao to arrange the operation to clean up the thieves, Jiangnan Yanyulou relied on contacts and intelligence to speculate on the stronghold, and as an official government, it was even more convenient to act, and every soldier and horse brought the nearby security chief Li Zheng and inquired one by one according to the roster.

As long as there was a slight discrepancy with the roster, they were immediately arrested, and the operation was busy from morning to noon, and the dust finally settled. There were one hundred and two such strongholds destroyed, hundreds of thieves were captured, and the rest were in action, because of the stubborn resistance of the corner, the rest were taken to the prison in the capital.

For a time, the prison in the capital was overcrowded.

The reason why one hundred and two were cracked, instead of one hundred and eight of the sum of heaven and earth, was because the other five strongholds were quietly captured by the heroes of Jiangnan Yanyulou, and the living people were all brought into the Centipede Street Main Hall.

For a time, many shops in Kyoto were empty, and the original owners were missing, and the impostor thieves were killed and arrested. It seems that there are rumors in the market, and the people are panicking.

Although Chu Jinghong had already gotten the news in time, he did not act first. After all, it is in Kyoto, if the brothers go to the dragon pond and enter the tiger's den, not only may it cause damage, but it is very likely that there will be a misunderstanding between the officials and the army.

However, without the confessions of other thieves, it is difficult to make preliminary inferences about the location of the exit of the secret passage. Therefore, Chu Jinghong gave an order to set the five strongholds closest to the clock tower in the west of the city as targets, and the top masters in the Yanyu Tower in the south of the Yangtze River were dispatched, and they must capture a few more alive and come back, so that Lin Shiyin could ask for information.

The thieves in those strongholds are not too powerful, and the thieves who go to capture them are all top masters such as Gongsun Lie, Gongsun Rou, Bi Sheng, Wu Wei, etc., which is really killing chickens with knives and sledgehammers to smash mosquitoes.

Although most of these strongholds were on the side of the Supreme Gate, under this huge difference in strength, the thieves inside were all subdued in an instant, except for the group led by Wu Wei, almost all of them were killed on the spot, and the others were captured alive.

However, the group in charge of Xu Fei made a mistake because of the special identity of the enemy in this stronghold.

With the experience of clearing a stronghold, Xu Fei was originally confident, and the stronghold in this place was a tea shop. According to the report of the spies of the Yanyu Building in Jiangnan, a few days ago, the owner of the tea shop here suddenly changed, and a foreigner came to sell the store and do business here.

This kind of location that has recently changed people, is located at the border of power, and can be sent to and inquire about intelligence is the focus of suspicion. So Xu Fei led a few masters in the door to go, but what he didn't expect was that he couldn't see any flaws when he entered the door.

In this teahouse, there are four generations in the same house, a pair of old women with white hair, a couple about forty years old, a young couple of eighteen or nineteen years old, and a two or three-year-old babbling child. This kind of harmony and beauty looks like a stronghold of thieves.

But since it was the target of key suspicion, Xu Fei pretended to be a tea guest or pretended to drink tea and eat some breakfast, while observing his words and feelings. I saw that people asked me and answered, busy and busy, they were all very natural families, and the title was also extremely intimate, not like the blunt kind of temporary change of title.

Usually, when walking darts, there will be thieves pretending to be people in the tea shop and waiting for the opportunity to take sweat medicine, so the rivers and lakes have their own methods on how to observe words and how to check the flaws. Xu Fei looked at it carefully, this family was indeed not fake, it should be a mistake in the identification of intelligence.

As soon as he wanted to get up and go out, he felt that the atmosphere around him had changed slightly, as if something had changed a little, although it was a fleeting moment, Xu Fei believed that his intuition was not wrong. Ever since the intuition of the five senses was shattered at the Redhead Cliff with the intuition of the five senses, the senses of the body have become much sharper than before.

What was the change just now? Xu Fei thought carefully while walking slowly towards the street, although the feeling of something changing had disappeared, it was different from the feeling just now.

I saw Xu Fei's footsteps moving forward suddenly stopped, his footsteps staggered slightly, and he hurriedly turned around and stared at the man in his forties, and said in a dumb voice: "You ..." It was as if he had been plotted and his body had been injured, and at this moment, the aura of several people in the tea shop had changed!

The eyes of several other people involuntarily stared at the middle-aged man, with confusion and confusion in their eyes, as well as a trace of annoyance. And the middle-aged man's eyes were full of confusion and anxiety. Xu Fei laughed when he saw Yang Tian.

"You are all Dong Bufan's traitors, where are the original owners of those tea houses!"

As soon as this sentence came out, the family in the tea shop had already pulled out a cylinder from their waists, and Xu Fei's eyes were like torches, and he could see that these cylinders were all hidden weapon syringes that he had seen back then!

This kind of utensil is extremely expensive in the so-called treasures of the Han Dynasty, but I didn't expect this family to have one in their hands, but there is no change in the breath of these people, and they are still short and heavy ordinary people.

I can't complain that I entered the door and carefully identified and didn't find a flaw, these people really don't know how to strength, but by holding this hidden weapon syringe to prevent themselves from hurting the enemy. The speed of the steel needle fired by this syringe is extremely fast, and it does not require any skill from the user, just to aim at the target and press the motor spring.

It was really difficult to resist so many steel needles when he was in the dart game before, but now Xu Fei has already been reborn, and when he saw these needles, he smiled slightly, and only strode forward.

These people were recognized by Xu Fei's plan to knock on the mountain and shake the tiger, and they were all annoyed and angry, and pressed the syringe in their hands. I only heard a sound of firing like a rain, and the steel needle shot like a drizzle.

Xu Fei didn't dodge or dodge and went straight forward, when the steel needles were still three inches away from his body, they had been broken into several pieces, and they flew in all directions, and they stepped to the old couple in two or three big steps, and they flew like their fingers, and they knocked these two people down.

Hurriedly turned around and rushed to the middle-aged couple's side with two arrows, stretched out their hands quickly, and the acupuncture points were in the middle, and the two of them slowly softened.

The little couple's face was like earth, and the steel needles of the needle were all shot, but they couldn't stop Xu Fei's footsteps, the steel needles had been shot out in an instant, and they still tried their best to make the "click" of the machine spring buckle, Xu Fei rushed to the front of him in two steps, and raised his hand to seal the acupoints of the two.

Only the two-year-old doll cried loudly.

Xu Fei saw that the thieves in the courtyard had been knocked down, and his heart was settled, so he wanted to go out and call the brothers in the door to come in and take these people out, but he only heard a slight disturbance of breath behind him, and when he looked back, the old couple and the middle-aged couple were foaming at the mouth and twitching all over.

This surprise was not trivial, and they hurriedly went over to break open the mouth of a person, only to find that the tongue had turned black, which was a sign of poisoning, only the little couple's eyes were full of tears, and their eyes were on the crying doll.

Xu Fei immediately made a decision, immediately rubbed his body up, stretched out his arms and pinched the chin of the little couple, and had already removed the jaw joint. When I opened the man's mouth, there was a small black hard pill at the back of the tooth, which was fixed in the deepest part of the mouth.

Sure enough, they all died of poisoning!
