"Quick! Quick! "
In the darkness of the night, a group of over a hundred people held torches as they galloped south on the main street of Taiyuan City.
Their speed was very fast. Everywhere they passed, smoke and dust flew up. When the heavy horse hooves hit the green stone road, it made a "da da da" noise, waking countless people who had already fallen asleep along the way. The bailiffs who were patrolling the streets at night also noticed the loud noise, but before they could get close, the other party had already galloped far away on their horses! How could their two legs catch up to the four legs of the other party? They could only look at the other party's back and sigh helplessly.
"Motherf * cker, where did this group come from? Galloping horses in the city at night, do they still want to live? Boss, should we report to the Provincial Governor and send people to arrest them? "
A group of bailiffs looked at the departing figures of the group, and one of them cursed.
"This is already the third group! But the first two groups were the Imperial Army and the soldiers of the Bing Province Barracks. This group looks like ordinary people! "
Another person chimed in.
"Pah! Pah!"
The leader of the bailiffs angrily slapped the two of them on the head and said, "Don't worry.
"All of you, shut up! Which ordinary family can afford to raise so many horses? Who dares to gallop on the streets at night in defiance of the curfew? This matter is not something we can deal with. Just report it to the Provincial Governor! Continue patrolling! Tonight is not peaceful, so keep your eyes open! Do you understand? "
"Yes!"
The bailiffs roared in response.
Just as the leader of the bailiffs had said, Taiyuan City was not destined to be peaceful tonight. First, Dugu Feiying led the Imperial Army from the north to the south. Then, Fang Gongteng led several hundred cavalry from the Bing Province Barracks in the northwest to the southeast. Now, another group of people had appeared out of nowhere and were heading south. These people treated the curfew policy of Taiyuan City as nothing, but at the same time, it was clear that these people were not ordinary people. After all, how could ordinary people be so bold?
Moreover, the leader of the bailiffs had clearly seen this group of people coming from the direction of the Wang Clan's ancestral home. This meant that this group was very likely from the Wang Clan. Although they were bailiffs of the provincial government, they could not afford to offend the Wang Clan!
The leader of the bailiffs had guessed correctly. This group of people was the Wang family's hidden guards. The leader was the commander of the Wang family's hidden guards, Wang Chengwu. They had rushed to the Tongfu Inn under Wang Yu's orders. Firstly, they wanted to capture the innkeeper, Sun Dafu, or the owner, Gao Yong. Secondly, they wanted to see if Wang Li and the others were hiding in the inn!
In terms of time, Wang Yu and Li Junxian had decided to send their men to Tongfu Inn at almost the same time, but in terms of distance, Li Junxian's' temporary base 'in Taiyuan City was four to five times closer to Tongfu Inn than the Wang Clan's ancestral residence!
Thus, while Li Junxian's men were already fighting with Zhao Deyan's men in the inn, Wang Chengwu's men were still on their way!
But the arrival of Wang Chengwu's men was likely to be the key to breaking the stalemate in the inn!
Within Tongfu Inn, both sides stood on opposite sides. Li Junxian's men had retreated to the corridor on the second floor while Zhao Deyan's men stood in the main hall on the first floor. As for Zhao Deyan himself, he was naturally under Li Junxian's control.
