Chu Yunfei nodded, this matter was also expected by him. Gao Agu knew that he was coming, so he must have made preparations. I am afraid that Gao Agu already knew about his visit to Cuiyun Nunnery.
Knowing that the assassin did not kill Li Muqing, Gao Agu knew that his affair had been exposed. Coupled with Chu Yunfei's cold attitude towards him, he knew it was not good, so he escaped overnight.
Chu Yunfei took a deep breath. Although this Gao Agu was two-faced and had no real skills, he was very capable of watching the wind and catching shadows and acting upon opportunities. This is why when Chu Yunfei's army went south, this boy could immediately
After betraying Qin Yi, the city of Jinan was finally destroyed, Qin Yi died in battle, and countless soldiers were killed and wounded. However, this guy suddenly transformed and became the prefect of Jinan.
For some reason, Chu Yunfei always felt uneasy in his heart. As for the specific reason, Chu Yunfei himself didn't know. There seemed to be something wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.
This is just a pure intuition, the kind of feeling that has been honed in countless bullets and bullets for the rest of your life.
Gao Agu felt to Chu Yunfei like a wolf in sheep's clothing. At a certain time, the wolf would take off its sheep's clothing and reveal its ferocious fangs.
Not long after, Zhang Wu also came back and told Chu Yunfei that there was nothing unexpected. Lu Guangda and Xin Fa led the troops, and it was a peaceful night, and there was no unusual movement around him.
Chu Yunfei nodded, wondering whether Ma Shumou's interrogation had yielded any results. After thinking about it, he turned around and called Li Chu and said, "General Li, I'd like to trouble you to lead the Jinan garrison to guard the east gate. I'll ask Meng Feiwu to go over and help you."
.”
Li Chu slightly cupped his hands and said: "King Jin, don't worry, the general will guard the north gate strictly and live up to King Jin's high expectations."
Chu Yunfei nodded. In fact, both he and Li Chu knew that Gao Agu had defected and his whereabouts were unknown. Chu Yunfei was somewhat worried about the soldiers in Jinan City, so he sent Li Chu to guard them.
The relatively minor North Gate also asked Meng Feiwu to assist him. To put it bluntly, he also monitored the entire Jinan garrison along the way.
At that moment, Li Chu and Meng Feiwu took orders and led the troops away. Chu Yunfei asked Luo Lin and Zhang Wu to lead 5,000 iron troops to guard the east gate, and Lan Ling to lead 500 women's troops to guard the south gate.
Lan Ling looked at Chu Yunfei and asked, "Brother, where are you going?"
Chu Yunfei said: "Sister, you block the south gate first. I'll go and see if Uncle Ma has found out anything. The thief Gao Agu has recruited hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and now he is missing. The forces behind this thief
, it’s really not small.”
At this time, Chu Yunfei suddenly understood why he felt uneasy. It turned out to be because he was worried about this matter. Yes, how could hundreds of thousands of young men disappear all of a sudden? How could he disappear all of a sudden?
With so many people hoarding it all at once, this amount of power is a bit scary. Coupled with hundreds of thousands of young and middle-aged men, this is simply the largest force in Jiangnan.
Lan Ling nodded. She knew the key point in her heart. Lan Ling didn't say much at the moment and just said to Chu Yunfei: "Brother, be careful."
With that said, he led a group of female soldiers and rushed towards the south gate. Gao Agu left from the south gate, naturally passing through Jiangnan. Now there are only two groups of people with greater influence in Jiangnan. One group is Cui Changren, the governor of Jiangnan, who has many people under his command.
There are more than 40,000 regular Sui troops. The other group is Gao Zhizhi, the largest rebel rebel in the south of the Yangtze River. It is said that he has hundreds of thousands of rebels under his command. Of course, the specific number may not be that many, and the rebels are not the regular army of the imperial court after all.
Like bandits, they lacked the murderous spirit honed on the battlefield and their military discipline was in disarray. Even if they had 100,000 or 200,000 soldiers, they might not be able to match the 50,000 Sui troops.
As for the two generals Han Qinhu and He Ruobi, each of them had 30,000 Sui troops. However, they guarded Fuzhou and Changsha respectively, which were still far away from Jinan. It is estimated that these two people have little relationship with Gao Agu.
.
At that moment, Chu Yunfei came to the magistrate's Yamen. Ma Shumou and the Sui army were interrogating Gao Agu's family servants in the magistrate's Yamen. Seeing Chu Yunfei's arrival, the servant hurriedly stood up and said, "Prince Jin, are you here?"
Chu Yunfei nodded and said: "How is it? Did you ask anything?"
Ma Shumou shook his head and said: "These things don't seem to know the news about Gao Agu's escape. They are all unimportant servants. I guess Gao Agu didn't inform them at all when he escaped."
Chu Yunfei nodded. This was what he expected. Since Gao Agu deliberately defected, he must have made preparations in advance. The reason why he chose to leave tonight was because he wanted to see Chu Yunfei's attitude and wanted to kill him.
Li Muching.
He asked Ma Shumou: "Have everyone been brought here?"
As he said that, he looked at the dozens of people kneeling below, and saw that these people were all dressed in servant attire, and they were all looking at him in horror, at a loss.
Ma Shumou nodded and said: "Prince Jin, all the people from the high government are here, there is no one else."
Chu Yunfei nodded and asked the people kneeling below: "Which of you is in charge here? Is there a housekeeper or something like that?"
The people kneeling on the ground were silent, no one dared to say a word.
Chu Yunfei frowned. The way these people were dying made him feel very uncomfortable, as if he had punched them hard, but the opponent was as soft as a pile of cotton, with no impact at all.
He slowly walked to the front and said to a man in Tsing Yi kneeling at the front: "Stand up."
The man stood up tremblingly, looked up at Chu Yunfei in horror, and immediately lowered his head again.
Chu Yunfei was slightly shocked. This man looked frightened, but his eyes were very calm. When he looked at himself, that look made Chu Yunfei feel a little strange. This look did not look like an ordinary person at all.
family.
He was secretly on guard and said coldly: "Tell me, what is your name? What is your status in the prefect's family?"
The man's voice trembled as he said, "Master Qi, this little man Li Dou is a handyman who feeds horses."
Chu Yunfei hummed and said, "A handyman who feeds horses? Well, stretch out your hand and let me see it."
The man seemed hesitant and slowly stretched out his left hand.
Chu Yunfei calmly took two steps back, and then said: "A handyman who feeds the horses? Stretch out your right hand and let me see."
As he spoke, Chu Yunfei's right hand was quietly placed on the handle of the knife, but his eyes were coldly staring at the man in green in front of him.
Ma Shumou and others also felt that something was wrong, so they gathered around Chu Yunfei. The soldiers raised their weapons and faced the man in green.
Surrounded by the crowd, the man slowly stretched out his right hand.
Chu Yunfei waved his left hand behind him and said, "Tie him up!"
