Kang Xiaozhong and others were arranged in the largest private house in Guizhou City. This was used to be a mansion of a senior official who once worked as a doctor in the Ministry of Revenue in the capital. After being occupied by the White Lotus Sect, it has always been Yao Zhifu's residence, and now it has been given to them.

Although there are still some differences, the only life-saving straw for this sect, whether it is Wang Cong'er or Yao Zhifu, will be sincerely welcomed.

In addition to Kang Xiaozi, Tuo Guang, the 100 Marines who followed them also lived here.

Although the rain has been a little lighter these days, it has not stopped. It has been drizzling, falling and disappearing again. The sky is also gloomy.

After arriving here, Kang Xiaozhong immediately discussed with Tuo Guang.

Tuo Guang took the lead and said: "General, what did you see?"

Kang Xiaozhong was just a naval general. This time he rescued the White Lotus Sect, headed by him. In addition to being the chief executive of the Ryukyu region, he was also the old man of Truqin, and his background as a "descendant of martial arts actors" is very powerful.

Therefore, in his observation of his words and expressions, he obviously cannot compare with the intelligence manager of the empire in Huguang.

"Oh? Have you discovered something?"

Tuo Guang nodded, "From the situation in Bai Ri, it was not the woman Wang Cong'er who presided over the White Lotus Sect. She was just a puppet raised by Yao Zhifu, but Yao Zhifu is not the only one in the sect. Wang Tingzhao seems to be a force that cannot be underestimated"

"By the way, do you know that Wang Cong'er had already rested, so why did he come out to meet again when he saw Wang Tingzhao coming?"

Kang Xiaozhong obviously knew the power of the intelligence agency's secret spy. As the chief manager of Huguang and Sichuan, he was a businessman and had not revealed any traces for more than ten years. This is even more amazing. Although such a person only had the rank of lieutenant colonel in the intelligence agency, he was actually at the level of a major general.

Of course, Tuo Guang's loyalty to Truqin is unquestionable. He was the first Guangzhou immigrants to Truqin. His family was in Truqin. When he arrived, he was only ten years old. Except for a Cantonese dialect, his life after the age of ten was unfolded in Truqin. His body was deeply imprinted with the mark of Truqin.

"Oh?"

Kang Xiaozhong knew his own business and did not want to show off his power, so he turned his inquiry again to Tuo Guang.

"Although Wang Cong'er is just a puppet, it should not be underestimated. According to my understanding, she is an artist who walks around the world and plays with tricks. Such a person is the favorite of the White Lotus Sect. She married Qi Lin, the former leader, but she was still before Qi Lin when she accepted the White Lotus Sect."

"After she married Qi Lin, she introduced her master to Qi Lin and guided him to join the White Lotus Sect, but she was only one of Qi Lin's many wives and concubines. At that time, Qi Lin was the chief jail runner-up of the third squad of Xiangyang Prefecture, and had some power"

"Qilin was already forty when she married Qi Lin, and she was only fifteen years old. It was obvious that the White Lotus Sect had taken a fancy to his power in Xiangyang Prefecture, and Yao Zhifu was Qi Lin's eldest disciple"

"Qi Lin was a specialist in arresting the White Lotus Sect hiding in Xiangyang Prefecture. When he married Wang Cong'er, he also joined the White Lotus Sect. With his power and wealth, he obviously would not be proactive, but passive, because he married Wang Cong'er, the White Lotus Sect's people could threaten him with this verse and make him surrender."

"Of course, there were many White Lotus Cultists in the mountains in Yunyang Prefecture at that time. Some were indeed religious, but most of them were forced to admit it under the threat of local governments. It was estimated that there were hundreds of thousands. Such a large force also made Qi Lin, who was already ambition, tempted"

"Yao Zhifu is a yamen runner of Xiangyang Prefecture. He also joined the White Lotus Sect because he was implicated by Qi Lin. Think about it, since the chief chief of Xiangyang Prefecture is all White Lotus Sect members, then his subordinates who are usually close to him are suspected. Even if they are not suspected, they will be considered suspected by the government."

"So Wang Cong'er is just a chess piece of the White Lotus Sect?"

"Not all, she is from Xiangyang, but she has been traveling around the world with the masters of the White Lotus Sect since she was a child. Her family is not ordinary people, but a real generation of White Lotus Sect members in Zhushan County. She has some influence in western Hubei. That Wang Tingzhao is her nephew!"

"So that's how it is"

"Only a few people know all this except Yao Zhifu, most people don't know that Yao Zhifu was born in a yamen runner in Xiangyang. The White Lotus Sect mainly recruits disciples. Most of the people he recruits are officials, yamen runners, people from all walks of life and the world who are forced to join the White Lotus Sect, and of course some retired Green Camp officers or townspeople."

"They naturally recruited White Lotus Sects who were hiding in the mountains of western Hubei. When it comes to martial arts, they are naturally more powerful under Yao Zhifu, but when it comes to loyalty, strict organization, and orderly advancement and retreat, it is obviously more powerful in Wang Tingzone"

"Isn't this a replica of Zhang Zhengmo and Nie Jieren in Changyang County?"

"It's almost the same, but because of the many believers in Xiangyang, the White Lotus Sect, the most influential, and the scale is even larger. Wang Tingzhao's believers' combat power is much greater than Zhang Zhengmo"

"The strength of the White Lotus Sect in Xiangyang Prefecture is far greater than that in Shaanxi and Sichuan, so other White Lotus Sects have elected the White Lotus Sect leader in Xiangyang Prefecture as the leader. In addition to Wang Cong'er being the nominal supreme leader, the Holy Mother of White Lotus, Yao Zhifu's Dongfang Elder is also the leader of the four elders"

"So, we need to start with the royal court?"

"It's very difficult. Yao Zhifu is different from Nie Jie people. He has participated in too many battles to capture cities and land, and has also killed a large number of senior officials and generals of the Eight Banners of Manchu and Han. He is already a person who is eager to get rid of it. Unlike Nie Jie people, he does not have much blood from the Qing officials"

"Well, that is to say, it was impossible for the Qing court to divide Yao Zhifu and Wang Tingzhao like Changyang"

"Yes, they just have different opinions and will definitely deal with it together when facing foreign enemies"

Kang Xiaozhong fell into deep thought.

"It is his mission to take away the White Lotus Cultists in Guizhou, but nowadays there are differences. It is not easy to convince them all. If they provoke differentiation, they will fall into civil strife..."

Just as he was thinking, he glanced at Tuo Guang, and saw that he suddenly became fully focused. Obviously, he did not look at him, but raised his head and stared at the roof.

He was about to speak, but Tuo Guang made a gesture of silence. Kang Xiaozhong understood, so the two of them dipped their fingers in tea and wrote words on the table.

"There are people on the roof?"

"Yes"

"Who?"

"Don't know"

"White Lotus Sect?"

"Impossible"

"Well?"

Tuo Guang whispered to Kang Xiaozhong, signaling the two of them to end the conversation and go back to their rooms to rest, but instead of returning to the originally assigned room, they changed the room. Tuo Guang moved into the room originally arranged for Kang Xiaozhong, the former doctor's bedroom, but Kang Xiaozhong moved into the wing room.

Soon the lights in the entire courtyard were turned off. Tuo Guang piled the bedding on the bed into something that someone was sleeping, and he hid himself in the corner of the room.

On a rainy night, Guizhou was covered with darkness and could not see his five fingers. Apart from the drizzle of rain, there was no more movement.

At midnight, Tuo Guang's door creaked and gently pushed open. A tall figure flashed in. The man was obviously a veteran. After entering the room, he immediately closed the door again and then slowly approached the bed.

At this time, in the corner diagonally opposite the bed, Tuo Guang had already added a special pistol for intelligence personnel with a muffler in his hand. In recent years, he had more social engagements in the shopping malls and officialdom than practicing martial arts, so he did not dare to take the risk and rush up, but shot the man in the thigh.

After a "punch", with a muffled groan, Tuo Guang rushed over this time. At the same time, several secret whistles arranged by Tuo Guang came in from outside the door, and several people worked together to press the man to the ground.

Soon, the room lit up.

A young man in a white turban and a black shirt appeared in front of them. He saw that he was tall and strong, and his single clothes could not cover his knotty muscles at all. He was holding a short knife in his hand, but after Tuo Guangyi shot his thigh, the short knife had fallen to the ground under severe pain.

The face of the Chinese character, beard, hooked nose, looks like a Han Chinese, but after careful identification, you will know that his appearance is somewhat similar to that of the Yi and Tibetans in the southwest region.

At this time, Kang Xiaozhong also rushed over and immediately interrogated him in this room.

In order to prevent him from dying due to excessive blood loss on his thigh, the accompanying Marine Corps military doctor bandaged him.

This person was calm when he saw his failure in his actions, but he didn't speak up even though he died. He looked quite righteous.

Tuo Guang held the candlestick in front of him, looked at it carefully for a long time before saying, "I know who you are, but I didn't expect that a high-ranking general from the Qing Dynasty could do such a thing as Jing Ke's specialty."

Seeing the other people's shocked appearance, Tuo Guang removed the white scarf from the man's head, and indeed revealed the hair accessories with the rat tail of Jin Qian!

Tuo Guang continued: "He is the commander of the chieftain soldiers of Xiangxi Town. Yang Yuchun, our army was defeated in yesterday's battle, but many chieftain soldiers still rushed to the mountains, including this person. I have seen this person in Yichang Prefecture. Of course, I know him, but he doesn't know me."

"Good guy, this guy sneaked into Guizhou City after his failure. By the way, he obviously saw our army entering Guizhou City early in the morning, so he took the risk"

"He is only nineteen years old this year, and he has become the commander of the most elite Qing court at a young age. He has a strong hand in the generals and his future is limitless, but our army has given him a blow when he is about to succeed"

"He is obviously very dissatisfied and is eager to find his face"

"He is very skilled in martial arts and follows us all the way here. He is also very smart. He knows that if he only assassinated the leader of the White Lotus Sect, it is not helpful to only assassinate us. Only those who assassinate us will cause conflicts with the White Lotus Sect. Think about it, there was an assassination incident in a city completely controlled by the White Lotus Sect."

"In the knowledge of ordinary people, they will only point assassins to a certain sect of White Lotus, thus causing irreconcilable contradictions between us"

"As long as we drive away our power, the Qing army will be able to deal with the current White Lotus Sect. If he can successfully leave Guizhou City, he can make up for his mistakes. He may still make great contributions!"

As he said that, he smiled on his face and said to Kang Xiaozhong: "General, there is no way to do it, but this person's arrival gave me an idea"
