Chapter 1004: The golden cicada sheds its shell

Tianlai City, the city's head!

Yang Chaojun looked at the tower at the head of the city being smashed to pieces, and a lot of figures fell on the ground, and under the city, one after another boulders were in the sky, and in just a short moment, dozens of lives were harvested!

"Give the order to go down, withdraw half of the defenders, and be sure to protect the catapults, and not let them smash them!"

"No!"

"Yang Shuai, it's not a way to go on like this!"

An adjutant general said with a worried face: "Great Xia not only has catapults, but also ballistas, crashes, once the siege is really launched, how can we resist it!" ”

Hearing the adjutant general's frustrated words, Yang Chaojun instantly became angry: "What do you mean? If you can't stop it, won't you block it? Open the gates and surrender? ”

"If you can't stop it, you have to block it, the city is here, Ben Shuai doesn't want to be a slave to the country, if you let me hear such a frustrating words, don't kill me!"

"Yes!"

The deputy general looked at Yang Chaojun's fierce eyes and bowed his head silently!

……

"Commander, let me lead someone to attack once!"

Dian Wei looked at Xue Rengui with burning eyes, "Now the turtle son of Donglai who is crushed by our catapult can't raise his head, this is a great opportunity!" ”

Xue Rengui bowed slightly, looked at Dian Wei, and said in a solemn voice: "Evil, it's okay to attack the city, but you must remember that let the archers press the city tower for me, put the chariot on me, and go into battle with a shield, the purpose is not to attack the city, but to put the offensive for me, bluff!" ”

"Half an hour at most, you must retreat!"

Dian Wei's eyes suddenly widened: "Why?" ”

Xue Rengui said softly: "What we have to do now is not to let Donglai become suspicious, wait for Zhao Yun and Qingzhi to take down several surrounding cities, and Tianlai City will not be attacked!"

"Good!"

A tragic siege battle began, 100,000 male soldiers in Great Xia attacked the city together, arrows were all over the sky, and huge stones were in the sky, just half an hour, thousands of people were injured, and it also exerted huge pressure on Donglai!

……

Gangnam, Namwon!

Qingyuan City.

"Your Highness, there is a major discovery!"

I saw a figure hurriedly walk in, followed by the county guard Wang Jue!

"Huh?" Luo Chen's face suddenly turned pale: "What's the matter?" ”

"Those county soldiers who died in battle, there is a problem with their identity!"

"Half of them have been replaced, and most of them are orphans, and these soldiers are all strange faces!"

"What!"

Luo Chen's face suddenly turned grim, and he said in a deep voice: "Have you found out the identities of these people?" ”

"No, we can't find out at all!"

"Can't find out?"

Wang Jue lowered his head, not daring to look at Luo Chen at all, Xu Long bowed slightly: "These people who have been dropped have no household registration at all!" ”

Luo Chen's face was a little more solemn, and after a long time, he said softly: "Wang Jue! ”

"The lower official is here!"

"Immediately investigate the county soldiers in the city, as long as it is a person with a suspicious identity, control them all, if you mess up this for me, you don't need to ask for your head!"

"Yes, yes, yes!"

Wang Jue was suddenly frightened, and nodded vigorously.

Luo Chen looked at Xu Long: "Is Yelang back?" ”

"Not yet!"

"Take me to see the bodies of those people again!"

"Yes!"

Luo Chen followed Xu Long to the suburbs, these corpses were already ready to be buried, Luo Chen walked in front of the corpses, checked their wounds, and his face sank: "Many people were assassinated from one side or behind, and now ordinary people have been dropped!" ”

"Then the group of people who were dropped before are likely to be the murderers, that is to say, at least part or even all of the attack and murder cases are hidden in our grain delivery team!"

Luo Chen's eyes shone with a cold light, and he said in a low voice: "Check the identities of these dead people!" ”

"Yes!"

Xu Long left in response, and Yelang finally came back, striding in front of Ye Qing, his face was also not very good-looking!

"Did you find anything?"

Yelang shook his head slightly: "Our people first searched all the hidden places of the three main roads, and through the secret sentinels, they visited, and did not find any trace of this group of people!" ”

"Along the way, I didn't find the slightest spilled food!"

Hearing Yelang's report, Luo Chen's brows furrowed, all along, did he ignore something?

"First go and send someone to verify the identity of these people, I want to know where they came from!"

"Yes!"

Yerou answered in a low voice and walked away quickly!

Luo Chen ordered someone to find Wang Jue and asked lightly: "Lord Wang, who is the chief official of this grain transport?" ”

"Lord Hui, this grain delivery, the subordinate knew that the stakes were important, so he asked the county lieutenant Lin Zhiyuan to personally escort him, and the soldiers under his command are all the elite of the county soldiers!"

"Lin Zhiyuan?"

Luo Chen frowned slightly, looked at a figure beside him, and said in a low voice: "Give me Lin Zhiyuan's information!" ”

"No!"

It didn't take long for Lin Zhiyuan's identity information to be placed in front of Luo Chen's case, as long as he was an official, Jinyiwei had an identity record!

"Your Highness, are you suspicious of Lin Zhiyuan?" Lin Jue's face was stunned: "Dissatisfied with His Highness, Lin Zhiyuan is the cousin of Xia Guan, and besides, his body is still placed outside the city!" ”

Luo Chen looked at the brocade guard with an inquiring gaze, the brocade guard bowed slightly, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, Lin Zhiyuan's identity has been verified!" ”

Luo Chen bowed slightly, and glanced at it roughly, there is nothing special about this Lin Zhiyuan!

Yu Yao also hurriedly walked in, looked at Luo Chen's deep expression, and said softly: "Your Highness, now that we have searched all the important places on the three roads, and even visited some farmers, it is absolutely impossible for them to hide the grain!" ”

"However, according to the situation last night, it is almost impossible to transport all the food away!"

"So, will the food be lost?"

Listening to Yu Yao's doubts, Ye Qing said in a deep voice: "Notify the Jinyi Guards from all over the country, comprehensively match and investigate, mainly looking for food, rut marks, and blood stains!" ”

"Yes!"

……

"Haha, we sold 300 wen today! It's been sent, it has been sent! ”

Anqing Mansion, a group of five people with full joy on their faces, they spent a day, captured ten catties of locusts, and sold them for 300 Wen upstairs in the world, even if they were divided, one person had 60 Wen, this money was simply too easy to make!

"Hehe, why did you only sell three hundred wen!"

"We are also ten catties of locusts, but we sold for a full five hundred wen!"

The tattered victim next to him had a smile on his face, "Not long after you left, the prices of the major commercial houses and the downstairs of the world actually increased, and now it is fifty wen per catty!" ”

Hearing the man's words, the five looked at each other!

"Let's go, catch the locusts!"
