Chapter 332 Chase 5
Chen Baihu led his troops out of Fucheng, probably to hunt down Xiao Xiao and the others.

It was because the General's Mansion was where they had jurisdiction. After finishing their work, they discovered that all the wives and legitimate sons of General Li's Mansion had run away. After being scolded by their superiors, Chen Baihu was told to find them back.

The kind that wants to see people when alive and the corpse when dead.

Chen Baihu was not familiar with the terrain here, and it was impossible to know where the Li family would run?
Then we can only lead troops to the general's mansion first, and prepare to arrest all the maids, wives, and boys and torture them severely. I don't believe that there will be no clues.

Besides, in the General's Mansion, before Mrs. Li fled, she asked the servants, maids, and ladies to take shelter.

Seeing that the masters had all run away and the servants were all panic-stricken, a cunning old woman took the lead and rushed into the madam's yard, and then hurriedly escaped with a big package in her arms.

Someone tried to stop her, but the old woman even plausibly argued, "I'm collecting it for my wife, so that the rebels won't ruin the good stuff."

Everyone said that they had learned something, and rushed into the madam's room with great enthusiasm, looking for valuable gold and jade ornaments.

What makes everyone feel regretful is that the furniture object is too big to take away.

Various calligraphy and paintings, precious pure mud inkstones, as well as those cloisonné enamel three-legged incense burners, cloisonné enamel lotus root bottles and other dazzling ornaments are dazzling and fragile.

At this time, everyone wants to find gold, silver and jewelry.

Gold and silver in troubled times, jewelry in prosperous times, these are general goods and easy to sell.

If that doesn't work, better cloth and clothes can also be used as silver.

All the gold, jade, and silver hooks were also taken away.

Those who work in the mansion naturally know which masters have plenty of money.

So after going to the madam's room to clean up, she hurriedly rushed into the eldest and second young master's yard.

These two young masters had just gotten married, and the dowries of the two young ladies were even more generous, which left a deep impression on them.

As for the other aunts' houses, no one went there.

The main reason is that everyone knows that the madam is not very generous to the aunts, and she must have taken them all away if she only relied on the moon silver or the general's reward. It is impossible for them to pick up the leaks.

To their surprise, the eldest mistress's yard warehouse only contained some furniture, ornaments, fabrics, and ordinary clothes.

A strange thought arose in everyone's mind: It was not as if the eldest mistress had escaped in a hurry, but rather as if she had been prepared, leaving nothing of value behind.

If Xiao Xiao knew what they were thinking, he would definitely cry out that they were wronged.

The thought of not taking away so many good things made her feel distressed just thinking about it?
There were so many good things left in the Second Young Master's room that many people ran away several times.

As for Chen Baihu, he only rushed into the general's mansion in the afternoon. When he saw that the main room looked like it had been ransacked, he wondered if some of his colleagues had already raided the house before him.

This is too much.

They captured a few maids and women who stayed in the house and beat them until they were half dead. They didn't even know where the masters had gone.

Fortunately, a mother-in-law said that there was an aunt in the house who did not follow him.

In the end, they found Aunt Yang from the warehouse and did not need to strictly interrogate her. Instead, Chen Baihu praised her for her thin skin and tender flesh and her handsome appearance. She was just sent to the red tent to reward the soldiers...

Aunt Yang was so frightened that she collapsed on the ground and immediately told the masters about their visit to the village.

After Chen Baihu asked clearly, he immediately ordered people to chase him.

He just thought that the Li family only had a dozen guards. If he came to arrest people in a big way, it would make people laugh.

I don’t want my men to be injured or injured.

After all, now is the time to employ people, and he doesn't want his men to lose too much.

Although he is still a hundred households, in the battle last night, one Xiaoqi and a dozen ordinary soldiers were killed under him, and two Xiaoqi and more than a dozen soldiers were injured. His hundred households are about to be hit in half.

In addition, Fucheng also had the task of guarding the checkpoint, so he only ordered thirty soldiers to come over.

He felt in his heart that the people he brought could fight one against two.

Of course, in order to be sure, he was still willing to bring more people with him, preparing to bully the few with more, and use two against one.

Unfortunately, they came out too late, and it got dark too quickly. It was almost dark, and they hadn't found the persimmon forest yet.

Chen Baihu was irritated: "There are no residents in this ghost place, and Zhuangzi has not been found yet."

The people on the side came up with an idea: "Sir, how about my subordinates go back and arrest a few people who are familiar with this place?"

But Chen Baihu refused: "It takes too much effort to go back and forth."

Just kidding, he doesn't want to lose face.

This let his colleagues know that they would definitely take the opportunity to put some pressure on him behind his back, saying that he didn't think carefully enough.

And if his subordinates had reminded him like this before coming out, he would have praised them for their thoughtfulness.

But now he was reminded that it was an afterthought.

Before he spoke, Chen Baihu had thought of it himself.

But what's the use of regret?
He absolutely does not want his colleagues to see his jokes.

Chen Baihu said angrily: "Go forward, if you see lights, just rush over and find someone to lead the way."

"If we're lucky, maybe we can find them directly?"

If you are unlucky, you can only find a place to stay for one night and look for it tomorrow.

Not long after he finished speaking, his subordinates couldn't hide their joy: "Sir, look, there is really a fire ahead, we can really find the person leading the way."

Another subordinate who was good at flattery immediately said: "Your Excellency, your fortune is high. You are talking about anything. Maybe it is really the Li family in front of you?"

"Sir, you have made great achievements this time, and you will definitely be able to rise."

When Chen Baihu heard these words, he felt very happy and hummed proudly: "Okay, the gold, silver and jewelry they brought out will definitely be huge, and you will benefit from them."

Why is he here in a hurry? He is unwilling to bring too many men out, let alone ask for help.

Even this fool can think that Mrs. Li and the others are big fat sheep.

When they arrived at the bamboo forest, they saw four men in armor, holding knives and watching them cautiously.

When he saw clearly that they were wearing the same type of armor, the leading man smiled: "It turns out they are all our own, and they traveled all night. Thank you for your hard work."

Then he asked: "Excuse me, how far is it from Fucheng?"

When Chen Baihu saw that he was wearing the armor of the general banner, he was also a little confused: "Which lord are you under? How come you are unfamiliar to me?"

Xiao Laoer thought to himself: Just meet him face to face.

My eldest brother was afraid that if you saw him, you would think he looked familiar and wouldn't dare to come out, so he asked me to come forward.

Originally, Xiao Laoer was afraid that he would expose his flaws, but Xiao Xiao said that he could just treat them as customers who came to buy meat.

This was Xiao Laoer's specialty, and he found that this method worked quite well.

You won't be so frightened that you can't speak when you face them.
