Chapter One Thousand and Nineteen: Tracking
"Boss, let's send these dumb people to the yamen, it's pitiful to see them." Xiaodong suggested.
"Okay, let's bury the old man's body first, and then leave here!"
Several people wrapped the old man's body in a simple blanket made of bamboo, found a remote place, and buried it hastily.
The five mutes were untied from the coma and taken to the small city, where Xiao Dong took a few guards and sent them to the yamen in the city.
Because Xiao Anzi is an important informant, he was arranged in the inn, with Bai Zijun, and there are usually two guards who are guarding him all the time.
In the evening, after dinner, Han Xuening, Murong Xue and several others gathered together to discuss how to find those Persians.
Han Xuening said: "Although the Persian State was destroyed, there were still many Persians in the territory of the Great Wei Kingdom, some of whom worked as coolies on farms, and some were scattered in various cities. After a few days of investigation, there should be many Persians in Ganxi City. The Grand Duke of Persia should be the royal relative of Persia, and he must have a lot of Persian troops and secret killers under his command. If they are allowed to develop freely, it will be a great hidden danger to the security of the Great Wei State in the future. We must eliminate these people before we can. ”
Murong Xue also said: "The queen is right, at the moment, the most important thing is to find these people's nests and wipe them out. ”
Everyone decided that tomorrow they would let Xiao Anzi lead the way, and first go to the first place where the old man often met with the Persians.
Early the next morning, Qiao Zhuang dressed up, some of them stayed in the inn, Xiao Anzi took it, Han Xuening, Murong Xue, Bai Zijun, Xiao Dong and a few others went to the Persian secret gathering point in Ganxi City.
This gathering point is in a remote mountain forest that goes west of the city, less than three miles from the west gate.
Xiao Anzi said, "In the past, I followed the boss and came here to meet those Persians. At most, I saw a dozen people hiding there. ”
Although Han Xuening and the others did not have many people who went now, less than ten people, it was more than enough to deal with dozens of Persians.
At noon, Xiao Anzi took everyone into the mountain forest, and everyone followed Xiao Maruko forward, while paying attention to the surroundings and the situation on the road.
There are a lot of footprints on the road, and it seems that not long ago, quite a few people came here.
After walking for an hour, it was used to reach the dense gathering place of the Persians.
Here, there are three houses, and the ground is very dirty.
"These people should have just left!" Murong Xue said.
Several people searched in the three houses, but there was no one. Some of the daily necessities inside have been removed.
"They know it's been exposed, and they shouldn't come again." Han Xue thought for a while and said.
Xiao Dong asked, "Then what should we do next?" ”
"Go to the second place where the Persians gather."
The second gathering place is in a Persian mutton restaurant in a remote street in the city, where noodles and mutton are usually sold.
Everyone returned to the city, had some lunch, and immediately rushed to the mutton shop.
By the time everyone went to the shop on the street, the shop was closed.
Two guards went up and knocked on the door, but no one opened it.
Xiao Dong asked passers-by, and they said that the store had closed yesterday and had never been opened, and they didn't know where the owner had gone.
Some passers-by also say that this is usually the place where the Persians gather to eat and drink. The Persians are not the same as the people of our Great Wei Kingdom, they like to eat mutton, mutton soup. It tasted fishy, but the Persians ate it with relish.
"It seems that the people here have already left and will not come back in the future."
The absence of people in the two Persian settlements in Ganxi indicates that the Persian Grand Prince's gang has been vigilant and has moved them all in order to prevent their organization from being wiped out.
The rest is only one place, that is, a hidden place in the mountains and forests that can only be reached by walking twenty or thirty miles from the west gate of Ganxi City.
Xiao Anzi went to this place once, but did not enter it. He was guarded by several Persians outside, and only the old man entered once.
Now that the old man is dead, the Persians don't think anyone will know about this secret place.
Therefore, those Persian killers and the remnants of the caught party may have gathered over there.
Considering the large number of the remaining Persian party, Han Xuening asked Bai Zijun to go to the city lord in the city, Bai Zijun is a general, and if he shows the token, the city lord has to obey him.
In addition, she asked Xiaodong to go out of the city and go to another city not far away to find the members of the women's team.
At the beginning, the four girls of Meilan Zhuju were arranged in the four surrounding cities, and each of them had 20,000 or 30,000 troops to maintain the security of the city and the orderly production of several surrounding agricultural and animal husbandry bases.
Mei Lan Zhuju, Xiao Dong brought it out from his hometown, Xiao Dong went to find them this time, they must be very happy.
After Xiao Dong received the order, he set off immediately with two guards, striving to borrow troops from the nearest city as soon as possible.
Han Xuening, Murong Xue, Zhong Xiaozi and a few guards followed Xiao Anzi out of the city immediately to find the secret gathering place of the Persians outside the city.
After leaving the city, Xiao Anzi said that when he came outside the city that time, it was already three years ago, and he could only look for it in the general direction.
Han Xuening asked everyone to pay attention to the footprints on the road, as well as the surrounding situation, if a large number of people passed, there would be a lot of footprints left on the road.
Soon after, everyone found a main road to the west, Xiao Anzi said, last time through this road all the way to the west, as if after walking five or six miles, there is a place to turn.
Han Xuening and Murong Xue said, "Sister, when we leave for a while, make some secret marks on the road and at the turn. In this way, those who come to support behind will be able to find out. ”
In fact, these are all things they said in the previous wars, and those spies said, making secret marks on the road, which happened to come in handy this time.
After walking five or six miles forward, the group saw an intersection, and there were two roads respectively.
At this time, Xiao Anzi couldn't remember which way to go.
Han Xuening squatted down and looked at the two intersections, the weeds on the road and the surrounding conditions.
"Let's go on the right!"
Xiao Anzi was puzzled and asked, "How do you know it's the one on the right?" ”
"You see, on the road on the right, there are obviously a lot of footprints, and many of the weeds in the middle of the road have been trampled flat, and it looks like it is newly stepped on for a short time, and it will take two or three days at most. In this way, it is about the same time as the people who are transferred have left. If you look at the road on the left, although there are also a lot of footprints, there are still weeds in the middle of the road, and some weeds that have been trampled off, and it looks like it has been half a month to a month. So, these people should be on the right side of the road. ”
