Important news always spread quickly. It was like this in the future, and it was also like this in the Tang dynasty. Last night, Ang Lee had been surrounded by a group of assassins and had killed seven of them. This matter immediately spread throughout Chen Cang City, and everyone was talking about it.
Over the years, there had been occasional cases of theft in Chen Cang City, but overall, it had been relatively peaceful. At least, there had never been such a big incident, so it was natural for the people to pay too much attention to it.
However, when the people of Chen Cang City talked about this matter, they always deliberately ignored Li Feiyu and Li Feiyu, and praised Ang Lee for being able to deal with the assassins, as if the seven assassins had all been killed by Ang Lee.
In order to lure out the escaping Hami fruit and to deter the criminals in the city, the Chen Cang City Magistrate had tied up the bodies of the seven assassins in the downtown area and pasted a notice on the wall to let the people in the city know that the corpses were the assassins.
"Big Brother, the people of Chen Cang City worship you very much. On the way here, I've heard too many compliments, such as invincible bravery and invincible, killing seven people by yourself, so amazing!"
Li Feiyu teased with a hint of jealousy.
Ang Lee smiled faintly, "Fei Yu, don't make fun of Big Brother. Of those seven assassins, five were killed by you and Shouyu. Big Brother only killed two. You and Shouyu are the real heroes. Alright, there's no need to pay too much attention to some things."
"Hehe, as long as Big Brother is considered a hero, I'll benefit from being by Big Brother's side."
Li Feiyu grinned and looked at the corpses of the seven assassins tied to the wooden posts in front of them.
"Big Brother, that female spy is coming. She looks a little flustered."
Ang Lee looked in the direction Li Feiyu was pointing and saw the flustered Ayi.
"Fei Yu, let's go take a look."
Ang Lee frowned and brought Li Feiyu over.
Early in the morning, Ah Yi heard about what had happened last night. She didn't need to think to know that it must have been the work of the Hami fruit. When she heard that seven assassins had been killed and only one had escaped, she immediately became very nervous and hurriedly ran over to see what had happened.
That's right, she had already secretly liked Hami fruit, and she was very worried about his safety.
"It's not him, not him, and not him!"
Ayi carefully identified the seven assassins tied to the pillar..............................................
"Thank God, he's still alive."
Ah Yi closed her eyes and prayed. She turned around and walked slowly.
............. I......
.....................
. Ang Lee did not care and frowned: "Miss Ayi, what a coincidence. Why are you walking with your eyes closed?"
Ayi was startled and raised her head to see that the person in front of her was actually Ang Lee. This was out of her expectations.
"Uh, I'm sorry, Officer Li. A bug flew into my eyes. I'm sorry."
Ah Yi suppressed the panic in her heart and immediately rubbed her eyes with her hands.
Ang Lee grinned: "Where did the bug come from in such cold weather? It's sand right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, it seems to be sand. Officer Li, I …"
Ang Lee smiled and shook his head: "Little Miss Ayi, you have to be careful in the future. Don't be so reckless. If you step on someone with a bad temper, they will not be polite to you. Hehe."
Ang Lee brought Fei Yu back to the county office.
Looking at Ang Lee's confident back, Ayi's heart suddenly became very chaotic. This was a kind of chaos that she had never experienced before. At this moment, she hated her identity very much. If only she was not a spy sent by her master.
It was undeniable that Ayi had already developed a good impression of Ang Lee that she should not have, and feelings were sometimes uncontrollable. To have a good impression of a person completely came from the depths of one's soul, and it was not something that one's own will could control.
In fact, Ayi liked Ha Mi fruit because Ha Mi fruit was tall and confident, and had a heroic spirit that she admired. This was something that the average man in Dongnu Province did not have, and Ang Lee not only had the confidence and heroic spirit of Ha Mi fruit, but also exuded a comfortable gentlemanly demeanor from head to toe, which was much better than the arrogant Ha Mi fruit.
Officer Li, you are a good person, but I am deeply indebted to my master. We are destined to be enemies, so why are you so good to me?
Ayi's heart was extremely painful, and she walked back with a lonely expression.
"Big Brother, that female spy is a silly little miss. Saying that there are insects in her eyes on such a cold day, it really makes me laugh to death."
Ang Lee shrugged and teased: "Your Big Brother is so handsome, which little miss will become silly when she sees me?"
"Big Brother is right. Little Miss Yue 'er, Guichang Wang, Little Miss Ruyu, one is more silly than the other."
Li Feiyu agreed with a sour tone.
Ang Lee smiled and said softly: "Okay, let's not talk about it. Big Brother has given you a difficult task, you must complete it."
"Big Brother, what's the difficult task?"
Ang Lee said seriously: "In order to check for assassins, the city gates are all closed, so the fish that escaped last night must still be in the city. I want you to immediately lead a dozen brothers out of the city, disguised as hunters, and go to Chen Cang Trail to ambush. Then, Big Brother will ask the county magistrate to open the city gates and let the assassin leave Chen Cang."
"Big Brother wants me to capture the fish that escaped the net at Chen Cang Trail."
Ang Lee quickly shook his head: "No, you must not capture him. You just need to follow him and know what he is going to do next. Remember, this person is not simple, you must not be careless. You must pay attention to your safety, and at the same time, don't lose him."
"Big Brother, don't worry, I promise to complete the task."
Li Feiyu promised solemnly.
After some simple preparations, Li Feiyu led a dozen reliable brothers out of Chen Cang City's south gate and quickly galloped toward Chen Cang Trail.
Two hours later, all the city gates of Chen Cang City were open, and the people entered and exited the city. The Hami fruit, who had escaped disaster, mixed in with the crowd and quietly escaped Chen Cang City.
The northern starting point of Chen Cang Trail was Chen Cang City. For this reason, Li Feiyu and the others entered Chen Cang Trail not long after leaving Chen Cang City.
Chen Cang Trail was also known as Old Trail and Jialing Trail. It was an important path connecting Guanzhong and Hanzhong. Since ancient times, it had provided great convenience for the people of the two places to communicate.
As an extremely important strategic path, Chen Cang Trail was extremely famous. There was almost no one in the future who did not know of Chen Cang Trail. The main reason for its fame was not its strategic role, but a major event that happened during the War of Chu and Han.
Back then, Liu Bang, who occupied Hanzhong and Central Sichuan, gradually grew stronger, and his ambitions swelled. He was not satisfied with staying in a corner of the country, so he took Han Xin as a great general and had him lead an army to attack Guanzhong.
Han Xin was extremely resourceful, and he offered Liu Bang a scheme to attack Chen Cang in the dark.
Liu Bang accepted this suggestion and had Fan Kuai lead a small number of people to pretend to repair Baoxi Trail. At the same time, he had Han Xin lead the main army to attack through Chen Cang Trail, taking Chen Cang City in one fell swoop. In the end, he had eliminated Zhang Han, Dong Yi, and Sima Xin's forces and taken Guanzhong for himself.
The story of Chen Cang Trail in the dark made Chen Cang Trail a well-known strategic path. At the same time, Han Dynasty's great general Han Xin left a thick mark in history.
After entering Chen Cang Trail, Li Feiyu had ten-some of his brothers split into groups of two and set up ambushes at different locations while keeping a close eye on the people passing by.
Soon, a familiar figure entered Li Feiyu's line of sight. This person was the assassin leader, Ha Mi Guo, who had escaped death last night.
Li Feiyu hid behind a tree and watched as Ha Mi Guo ran past him. However, Ha Mi Guo did not notice Li Feiyu's existence and continued to gallop on his horse.
"Let's go. Follow him."
Li Feiyu led one of his brothers and followed behind Ha Mi Guo. However, in order to not arouse Ha Mi Guo's vigilance, the two of them maintained a sufficient distance from Ha Mi Guo.
Ha Mi Guo was in such a hurry that he did not expect someone to be following him. Moreover, the distance was too far for him to hear the sound of horse hooves.
In truth, Chen Cang Trail was an extremely steep path without any forks. Thus, all they needed to do was follow. There was no need to worry about losing him.
In order to prevent Ha Mi Guo from discovering him, Li Feiyu kept a distance of one li. When they turned a corner, he couldn't even see Ha Mi Guo in front of him.
'Huh? Where did he go?'
After running through a bend, Li Feiyu found that there was no one on the road that was several miles long.
After carefully observing for a while, Li Feiyu discovered Ha Mi Guo. He urged his horse into the sparse forest on the side and followed the thirty-degree slope to the top of the mountain.
'Could it be that this assassin still has accomplices lying in ambush at the top of the mountain? They want to ambush Gui Chang King here? No, no, the terrain here is open and the slope is only thirty degrees. It's not a good place for an ambush.' Huh? Perhaps it's because this place is not suitable for an ambush that the assassin felt that he could achieve an unexpected effect. '
Li Feiyu frowned and analyzed for a moment before looking at his brother. "Immediately go back and inform the others. Have them all come over."
"As you command."
Li Feiyu sent away his subordinate and tied his horse to a nearby tree. He then rushed towards the top of the mountain on foot. He wanted to personally go to the top of the mountain to investigate and determine if there were really a large number of assassins there.
In order to let his subordinates know where he was going, Li Feiyu left a mark every ten steps.
After climbing to the top of the mountain, Li Feiyu quietly crouched on the ground and carefully observed. Sure enough, he found a large number of assassins. He counted and determined that the number of assassins was around forty people.
Then, his subordinates followed the marks left by Li Feiyu and climbed to the top of the mountain. They crouched behind Li Feiyu and waited for the next order.
