In the room, Ma Yongwang was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, scurrying around in confusion.

After a while, he realized what he was doing and cursed at the beautiful prostitute: "You should hide quickly."

The beautiful prostitute panicked and ducked under the table.

"Ouch! It's exposed. Hurry, hide under the couch..."

Ma Yongwang was still stamping his feet when he suddenly heard shouting outside. He no longer cared about clearing the wine on the table and ran out in a hurry.

But not far away, he saw a smooth-looking officer leading someone, striding over, looking around along the way.

"A few of you are on duty..."

The officer at the head had a very eye-catching goatee, and he was the shepherd.

"Are you the Qianhu of this guardhouse?"

"Yes, humble job Ma Yongwang."

The sheepherder scolded and asked: "Why don't you go to greet the Marquis when he arrives? And why don't you wear military uniform?!"

Ma Yongwang murmured: "I feel a little uncomfortable today..."

The shepherd suddenly sniffed.

Only then did Ma Yongwang smell the smell of alcohol on his body, and he was immediately frightened.

The shepherd narrowed his eyes, looking very intoxicated, and asked with a smile: "Do you have any wine?"

Ma Yongwang was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the greedy look on the face of the man in front of him, he felt relieved and said with an apologetic smile: "Do you want to go up in rank?"

The shepherd touched it with two fingers and said with a sly smile: "What do you think?"

"The Marquis is still waiting in the camp ahead, shall we..."

"What are you afraid of?" The sheepherder smiled and said, "I said you are on official business."

Ma Yongwang breathed a sigh of relief, quickly led the shepherd into the house, poured a bowl of wine himself, and quietly stuffed a silver ingot into it.

The shepherd did not refuse anyone who came, raised his head to drink, accepted the money, but suddenly raised his head and sniffed.

"What a delicious powdery smell! Tsk tsk."

"This..." Ma Yongwang hesitated and asked, "Should we go see Mr. Hou first?"

"Why are you so anxious?" The sheepherder chuckled and said, "I'm very quick."

"Ah this..."

"Get the man out." The sheepherder's face darkened, he clapped his hand on the case and said with a straight face: "You look down on me, don't you?"

Ma Yongwang quietly looked at the shepherd, gritted his teeth, and finally called the beautiful prostitute out from under the couch.

"Then, I'll go and change my clothes so I can see the Marquis."

While Ma Yongwang was speaking, the shepherd's hand patted his shoulder.

"We have all the witnesses and physical evidence. Since you are so capable, Ma Qianhu, just wait here. The Marquis will come to see you in person..."

"Bring me the military and ration books."

"Open the arsenals and grain depots."

"Let all the military households come out and order Mao."

"Where's Ma Yongwang?"

After issuing the orders one after another, Wang Xiao rode his horse and ran around Lu Longwei's school grounds, his face becoming increasingly livid.

The snow has not been swept away, the withered grass under the snow is knee-deep, the straw on the archery target has peeled off, and the weapon rack is rusty... All signs indicate that there has been no training in several years.

When the military households in the barracks were brought over, Wang Xiao looked around and saw that there were only about two hundred old, weak, sick and disabled people, all of them as thin as skin and bones. Their arms were as thin as firewood and were in tatters.

His sleeves were swaying, making people dizzy.

Counting down, there were less than twenty able-bodied men...

In the team, Tian Honghua lowered his head and tried his best to make his strong self less noticeable.

After a while, Zhang Yongnian rode up to him and asked, "Have you been drinking?"

Tian Honghua quickly raised his head and glanced up, and saw that the other party had a murderous look on him. He was obviously a ruthless character who had experienced battles. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment, so he lowered his head and responded.

Zhang Yongnian scolded: "Reply!"

"Drink a little."

"What's your name?"

Tian Honghua frowned and thought in his mind: If the other party knew that he, a guard of the Great Wall, had left his post without permission and came here to drink, it would be a big deal or a small matter. It mainly depends on what kind of person the other party is, and whether there will be any benefits?

But the trouble is, if that thing on my body is found, everything will be over.

Over there, Zhang Yongnian saw that he didn't answer, his eyes flashed fiercely, and he pressed his hands on the knife.

Tian Honghua pondered and planned to speak...

The next moment, Qin Xuance rode over and said to Zhang Yongnian: "There are three hundred servants stationed next to the guardhouse, all of them elite. They said they refused to come in without the general's orders... In addition, they have fire in their hands.

pistol."

"Is he Qianhu Ma Yongwang's servant?"

Qin Xuance glanced at Tian Honghua briefly and shook his head.

It is difficult for a thousand households to support three hundred elite servants equipped with firecrackers.

Zhang Yongnian understood, turned back to Wang Xiao, and whispered a few words...

Tian Honghua quietly raised his head and glanced around, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

He secretly estimated the strength of both sides. Wang Xiao only brought more than 80 people. At this time, there were 16 of his own guards in the team, and there were 300 servants outside the guard. In case Wang Xiao must pursue himself...

As long as I can get away, I don't mind if I actually do it.

Thinking of this, Tian Honghua felt that his palms were filled with cold sweat.

I was both nervous and a little excited.

After waiting for a while, a fan came running over and reported a few words to Wang Xiao.

Wang Xiao nodded and ordered: "Take these military households and come with me to see Ma Qianhu..."

Tian Honghua walked in the team, deliberately falling among his sixteen guards.

"You should keep this first..."

He gave instructions softly, quietly handed a package of things in his arms to a confidant, and said, "We'll see what happens later."

When they arrived at Ma Yongwang's hall, they saw that the drinks and prostitutes had not been packed away, and the money and account books had been dug out.

Tian Honghua secretly cursed "idiot" and stared at Wang Xiao's reaction.

But the king laughed and said, "What do you mean, if Ma Qianhu doesn't come to greet me, it turns out it's the beauty hidden in the golden house."

"Master Hou, have mercy on me!" Ma Yong looked down on the ground and cried: "I am so confused for a moment in my humble position!"

Wang Xiao took out a blunderbuss, unhurriedly loaded it, pointed it at Ma Yongwang's head, and sneered: "Let me count, how many crimes have you committed. Eating empty pay, occupying military camps..."

Tian Honghua and his confidants looked at each other and slowly stepped back.

But the king laughed and said, "Is there any money left?"

Ma Yongwang's face turned pale, and his body was shaking like a sieve. He cried and begged for mercy: "Master Hou, please spare my life. This is a despicable position and..."

"Bang!"

Ma Yongwang was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground and felt that his crotch was wet.

"Do it!"

"kill……"

When Ma Yongwang came to his senses, he found that Huaiyuanhou's people had surrounded more than a dozen big men and started fighting.

Before he could rejoice that he was still alive, he took a closer look and realized that the person surrounded was Tian Honghua, and his face instantly became even paler...

The moment Wang Xiao raised his gun, Tian Honghua really didn't expect that he was going to kill him. In that flash of lightning, he hid in the crowd based on his years of military experience.

The bullet hit one of Tian Honghua's guards, causing blood to fly.

"Huh..." Tian Honghua breathed a long sigh of relief.

Suddenly, a long knife fell from the sky and struck diagonally.

The light of the sword cut it off, and a head flew up!!!

The cooperation between Wang Xiao, Qin Xiaozhu, and Qin Xuance is actually based on tacit understanding.

The Wang family is a wine merchant. Until the prohibition of alcohol, most of the good wines in various parts of the capital are still sold by the Wang family. Qin Xuance knew who was drinking with Ma Yongwang as soon as he heard it.

It can be roughly determined who the Baijiading belongs to.

Qin Xuance gave a look, Wang Xiao fired, Qin Xiaozhu suddenly raised his sword... The moment the white horse passed by, the thief captured the king first.

"I have been ordered to supervise the division and prepare the military affairs of Jiliao! Today, we will conduct a thorough investigation of the Lulong Guard's deficiencies, and those who resist will be killed without mercy!"

With this loud shout, a bright yellow imperial edict was raised high.

One by one, the military households knelt down.

Ma Yongwang stared at this scene blankly, with only one thought in his mind: "It's over, what should we do?"

"Master Hou! A humble position..."

"The crime is unforgivable, kill him!"

Zhang Yongnian grabbed Ma Yongwang's hair and swiped the knife straight towards his neck!
