Ming Zuo

Chapter 1536

Together with the war, the Ningwu Institute is an important node.

This is another channel for the Qing army to escape from Yanmen Pass, so it was quickly occupied by the National Defense Forces, and checkpoints were set up to strictly check.

It is simply impossible for passers-by to pass by without proof and solid reasons.

This approach worked really well, catching many deserters from the Qing army.

On this day, outside the city gate of Ningwusuo, the soldiers of the National Defense Forces were still vigilant as usual, checking passers-by one by one.

A group of pedestrians came from a distance. They looked quite embarrassed, but they were all carrying burdens and their bodies were quite strong.

Seeing the tight security here, these people inevitably had some fear in their expressions.

Although they returned to normal when they got closer, the group of pedestrians didn't know that their performance had been observed by company commander Shen Huanwen when they were in the distance.

Seeing those people approaching, Shen Huanwen hastily ordered a few words to the soldiers below, and then walked to the city gate in person.

The soldiers are checking the credentials of these people, but have not found any problems for the time being.

Shen Huanwen took a document unobtrusively, and while pretending to check it, secretly observed the appearance of these people.

Qiba has a sturdy body, and he looks like a Lianjiazi at first glance.Although he didn't carry a weapon, his fist and kick skills should not be weak.

Protect the two in the middle.

A man in his fifties who is always inadvertently groveling, nodding and bowing, with shrewd eyes, should be a trusted servant.

The other was in his thirties, with a rich figure, and even though his face could be touched with black and gray, he could still tell that he was a pampered person.

Shen Huanwen was rather strange.

Since it's a rich family's trip, it's clearly the carriage and horses, so why cover it up?
He was sure that these people were not Tartars.

He has fought too many Tartars, and he can recognize what Tartars are like at a glance, and he will never admit mistakes.

Since he is not a Tartar, why cover it up?

"Where are you guys going?"

Shen Huanwen pretended to be interrogating casually.

The servant really stood up and moved closer to him.When he pulled his sleeve, a piece of gold suddenly slipped over.

"Military Lord Mingjian, my old lady is dying of illness, and time is running out, and the master has to go back to bed to fulfill his filial piety. But now that the army is in chaos and bandits are rampant, my master has to be more careful. Please also ask the military master to let my master I can see the old lady for the last time."

It's nice to say, but it's wrong for you to give gold.

Shen Huanwen was worried that he would not have a chance, so he immediately exploded on the spot.

He threw the gold on the ground and shouted: "Why do you still want to bribe when you have a legitimate reason? Tell me, who are you?"

Before he finished speaking, the soldiers around him suddenly rose up and surrounded him from all directions.

The muzzle is pointed, the bayonet is flashing, which is chilling.

The servant immediately realized that something was wrong and screamed in panic.

"Master, let's go!"

Needless to say, the fat guy has turned around.

Those few servants were still loyal, and when they escaped while protecting their master, they allocated half of them to stop the National Defense Army.

It's a pity that no matter how powerful the martial arts are, facing these heroes on the battlefield, they can only show their fists and legs.

Under several gunshots, these people were all killed on the spot.

Soldiers of the National Defense Forces in other directions also fired, but how could this group of people escape from a distance of tens of meters?
The fat old man was no exception, he was shot in the leg by Shen Huanwen, and fell all over in the dirt, like a dying pig.

The Wehrmacht surrounded him and put a bayonet on his nose.

The fat man's soul was filled with terror, and he howled at the top of his lungs.

"I want to see Zuo Menggeng! Let Zuo Menggeng see me!"

Shen Huanwen's eyes changed, and he raised his hand to stop the soldiers from assassinating.

The fat man was arrested and received medical treatment immediately.However, although the bullet in the leg was removed, walking would definitely be affected.

On the contrary, he calmed down and accepted treatment and supervision obediently. Other than that, he just ate and slept, and never spoke again.

He believed that Zuo Menggeng would definitely meet him.

Three days later, Shen Huanwen brought someone in and handed him over.

He was brought into the carriage, left Ningwu, and went all the way east.

He thought he would be taken to the capital, where Zuo Menggeng should be.

But when the team reached Datong, they stopped.

And the rich clothes and fine food in his fantasy were nowhere to be seen, and he was even thrown into a dirty prison.

"Where is Zuo Menggeng? Why didn't you come to see me?"

He was scared, hugged the railing and shouted desperately, but no one paid attention to him.

He faintly felt uneasy and couldn't figure out what was wrong.

However, the conversations of other prisoners in the prison were heard.

"Have you heard? The whole family of Mr. Fan in Zhangjiakou was arrested, and many people were shot on the spot at the door of their house. Tsk tsk, I heard that the blood flowed like a river."

"It's not just the Fan family. The Jin family, Wang family, Liang family, Tian family, Zhai family, and Huang family have all been arrested. I heard that the confiscated money piled up like a mountain, and it took days and nights to move it out."

The fat man listened in a daze, only feeling that the blood all over his body was frozen.

The prisoners were just chatter, but he knew better what these surnames meant.

From these messages, he somewhat understood why he was thrown into prison.

"Oh, isn't this my dearest and most beloved brother Wang? I haven't seen you for so many years, it really makes my heart hurt. Shandong and Shanxi are only separated by a mountain. Why did Brother Wang not come for so long? It makes me think about it day and night. , Weeping and mournful!"

Looking at Zhang Haogu, who is a villain, the fat man's face was full of shame and indignation.

"Why you? Where is Zuo Menggeng?"

Zhang Haogu pulled a bench and Shi Shiran sat down.

Looking at the fat man behind the railing, he felt really refreshed from the soles of his feet to the back of his head.

Back then you were a dragon and a phoenix among men, a star among stars, and I was a playboy and a clown in the world.

Now I am the emperor's sworn brother, a rich and idle man, and you...

Imprisoned, death is not far away.

Now Zhang Haogu finally understands what Zuo Menggeng said: 30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor.

"The second from the left is too busy to sleep just by counting the money. But Brother Wang, the amount of money is a bit wrong. Brother Wang, would you like to help?"

Wang Weiran really didn't want to see Zhang Haogu's hateful face.

It's just a straw bag, even talking to him will tarnish his identity.

"I and Zuo Menggeng are swaying the world, what are you, you are worthy to talk to me?"

"Tsk tsk, I said Brother Wang, but my younger brother has a heart for Mingyue! You say that, it really makes my younger brother heartbroken, and I can't help myself!"

"Humph!"

Wang Weiran was so annoyed that he turned his head aside, not wanting to waste time with Zhang Haogu at all.

Zhang Haogu acted on his own for a while, and became more and more involved.

"I want to see if Brother Wang's heart is dark. Why did you completely forget about me, little brother? Come on, let me be punished!"

(Not today!)
