(Everyone, twenty or thirty subscriptions are really hurtful...)
On the fifth day of December in the twenty-fifth year of Tai'an, there was heavy snowfall.
To the west of Gu Meng's Mansion, on the bank of the river, several big men jumped out of the boat and carefully walked to the bank with knives in hand.
Lin Dagui was walking at the front, and he said as he walked: "Brothers... be careful, don't get into trouble at the door of your house!"
"Sir, don't worry!"
The guards behind Lin Dagui have all been promoted to the second level, and their combat effectiveness is not ordinary.
It has been nearly five months since I left Yuanyang in early July, which is not a short time.
During these five months, they gained a lot and got a rough idea of the situation in Beidi County.
Now that they have returned in triumph, they are all very excited.
But Lin Dagui was afraid that his subordinates would be unstable and relax their minds, which would easily lead to problems.
The journey was uneventful, and everyone walked across the beach to the shore.
The surroundings were very quiet and desolate at first glance. There was still snow in many places, but there were not a few zombies in sight.
Lin Dagui couldn't help but sigh: "There is only a river between the two counties, but they are two worlds!"
Then a guard replied: "It seems that the guards of the palace have been idle these days. It seems that they have killed all the monsters!"
Lin Dagui then said: "Prince Quan Nai has a good command... Look at those people in Beidi County, although they have strong soldiers, they are all blocked by monsters within the city walls, and they are timid even when they go out to farm!"
Everyone agreed.
If those people in Beidi County had not had a relatively small number of zombies, they would have been eaten up by the zombies long ago.
"Keep on going, let's go to Gu Meng's Mansion first!"
Along the way, the density of zombies was indeed very small, and it was basically no obstacle to them.
Passing through villages along the way, they could rest for a while.
Holding a bowl of water, Lin Dagui took a big gulp of it and said, "Let me tell you, stop talking nonsense. We are really not spies!"
After saying this, he took out his waist badge from his pocket to prove his identity as their bodyguard.
"The prince sent us to Beidi County to investigate the situation, and we went just before the autumn harvest started!"
From Lin Dagui's words, Zhang Demao was convinced of his identity.
So he returned the badge to Lin Dagui and explained: "My lord... you are all strangers, so I offended you. Please forgive me!"
Lin Dagui was one of the 100 households at the forefront of the palace, and his status was not as high as usual.
To put it bluntly, Gu Mengwei's command and envoy Yuan Guang had to keep a low profile in front of him.
Lin Dagui asked: "Do you interrogate strangers like this?"
Zhang Demao nodded and said: "Your Excellency, you don't know. Just three days ago, our village arrested a group of spies!"
Hearing this, Lin Dagui was deeply surprised.
Can villagers also catch spies? Could it be spies sent by Beidi County?
Lin Dagui then asked: "Spy? Where did the spy come from?"
"I came from the north, and after asking them a few words, all these people's secrets were exposed!"
"Where are they?"
"Taken away by people from Qianhusuo!"
Lin Dagui nodded. These people came from Beidi County and might be able to find some useful clues.
Putting down the big pottery bowl, Lin Dagui said in a deep voice: "Let's go... to the county seat!"
"Sir, why don't you take a rest?" Zhang Demao asked quickly.
Lin Dagui smiled, clasped his fists and said, "The king's life is on my side, so I can't rest... Thank you for your hospitality!"
After saying that, Lin Dagui and his party no longer stayed too much, left the village and rushed to the county seat.
While rushing along the way, they saw a different Longyou.
The land was transformed and ditches dug.
After next spring, wheat will be planted here, and then there will be no need to worry about food and drink.
After half a day of traveling, they arrived at the county seat and were able to enter the city smoothly after getting the badge.
After arriving at Qianhu's office, Qianhu himself came out to greet him, but Lin Dagui did not get the result he wanted.
The people were indeed taken to the county seat at first, but after the news reached the guard station, Zhang Guangshi and others were all transferred to the capital city.
Lin Dagui said in a deep voice: "So, we still have to go to Fucheng!"
He didn't waste any time, borrowed some horses from Qianhu Station, and immediately rushed towards Gu Mengfu City.
Riding on horseback, they traveled very quickly. They arrived at Fucheng in the afternoon, and everyone was beaten to pieces.
After successfully entering the city, Lin Dagui immediately rushed to the guard station.
"Brother Lin, what brought you here!" Commander Yuan Guang came out of the yamen to greet him.
As a first-level commander, Yuan Guang was very aware of Lin Dagui's status in the palace, so he was willing to call him brother.
But Yuan Guang was the commander after all. Although he was more junior than himself, Lin Dagui still gave him basic respect.
"Commander Yuan, I heard that you captured some spies from Beidi County?"
"If this is the case, what do you think, Brother Lin?"
"I don't want to take it seriously. I just want to ask Mr. Yuan to hand the person over to me and let me take the person back to the prince!"
At this point, in order to eliminate Yuan Guang's misunderstanding, Lin Dagui explained: "As for the errands of Beidi County, the prince has already handed it over to me, so I would like to ask Master Yuan for your convenience!"
If it were someone else, Yuan Guang would definitely doubt the authenticity of what he said. After all, Zhang Guangshi and his team are of great use, and if they are used well, it will be a great achievement.
But Yuan Guang believed in Lin Dagui's character and immediately said: "This matter is simple, I will go to the government office with you to propose someone!"
"Go to the government office to pick up people?"
"I don't have a place to lock people up here, and it's not convenient for torture, so they are now locked up in the government office!"
After hearing this explanation, Lin Dagui nodded.
"Master Yuan, thank you very much!"
Yuan Guang was generous in making friends and saved Lin Dagui a lot of time. It is necessary to express his gratitude.
Yuan Guang smiled and said: "Brother Lin, you are all doing errands for the prince, so it would be too polite to say thank you!"
While the two were exchanging polite words, they walked to the government office at the same time. The government office and the guardhouse were not far apart.
After entering the government office, the others stayed outside in the courtyard. Yuan Guang took Lin Dagui to the prison together.
"Don't you need to say hello to the prefect?" Lin Dagui asked.
Yuan Guang replied: "The magistrate has been away for the past few days and has gone to the county seat!"
What a coincidence, not long after the two men entered the cell, the prefect Luo Lun came back from outside the city.
Entering the government office, he immediately noticed the soldiers waiting outside, as well as several palace guards who were not wearing official uniforms.
"Who are these people?" Luo Lun asked the officer on duty.
"Sir, it's the people from the guard station. They sent the envoy to the prison!"
This statement made Lauren even more surprised, and he immediately said, "Why did they go to the prison?"
The yamen officer replied: "My lord, the guards captured some spies yesterday, they seem to be from Beidi County, and they are now being held in the yamen jail!"
A spy from Northland County? This is a strange thing.
"Let's go, take me to have a look!" Luo Lun said solemnly.
"yes!"
With people imprisoned in his territory, Lauren can naturally find out what's going on.
