From a small soldier in the frontier army, an immortal god of war was born

Chapter 33: The truth is revealed; Chasing the enemy on horseback (a small climax, please read it~)

There were seven or eight walnut-sized gold bars inside, as well as a large pile of silver bars and broken silver. If converted into the common silver price, it would be worth at least five hundred taels. Just looking at it made people salivate.

Damn, how much did this old guy embezzle!
"Little brother, everything you want is here..."

Xie Mengchang looked at his own little treasury and felt extremely distressed. He wanted to cry but had no tears.

Wu Fengdeng was not polite and took them all.

This is a huge windfall!

In addition to the gold and silver, there were two account books, one thick and one thin. After flipping through a few pages, they were indeed the account books of Guyang County and the accounts of their smuggling of weapons and food.

Live together!

Wu Fengdeng stuffed the two account books into his inner garment, and put the gold, silver and other items into a cloth bag.

"Little brother, look, I have already done what you said, right..."

Before Xie Mengchang finished speaking, he saw a cold light flash across his neck, and then his vision flew high up.

dong dong~

A round object with blood rolled to the feet of the beautiful girl.

Ah!
She screamed with her eyes bloodshot, her voice seemed to break through the roof and sounded noisy.

clang! clang!
Wu Fengdeng poked the ground with his gun.

"I said."

The beautiful girl looked up in horror, her red lips trembling constantly.

"Uncle, uncle! I am innocent. Please, please..."

"Don't be silly, sister-in-law. I don't kill women."

"Seriously?!"

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly staggered to her feet, bowing repeatedly.

"Thank you for not killing me! Thank you for not killing me!"

Wu Fengdeng waved his hand, and the beautiful bride put on her coat with a sense of relief, turned around and was about to leave.

puff!
A bright red blade suddenly grew on his chest.

Her delicate body fell to the ground, blood gushing out of her mouth.

"I hope there will be more and more victims. Just saying this will get you killed."

The sharp edge of the spear rubbed against her body and finally it was as bright as new.

Wu Fengdeng withdrew his gaze, poured all the wine jars in the corner into every corner of the room, and then lit a fire.

The fire spread rapidly, and the place that was so charming and ambiguous a quarter of an hour ago was now engulfed by flames.

The pretty face was enveloped in the firelight, and the look in his eyes became increasingly cold and sinister.

Xie Mengchang is dead, but his accounts have been collected.

There was no other reason. This kind of evidence that could directly point to the crimes of Xu Tailai and others could not be burned just like that.

When there is a chance in the end, this will be strong evidence to bring them down.

Of course, there is another most important reason. Wu Fengdeng has already killed Xie Mengchang. If he burns the account book, he will be completely in cahoots with Xu Tailai and others. If the matter is exposed in the future, he will also be among those who will be held accountable.

So in a sense, this account book was also regarded as a life-saving talisman by him.

As for what Wang Hu said about burning...

Isn't this just setting a big fire?

Wu Fengdeng no longer hesitated, and turned over and fled away from here in the dark...

The next day, news that Xie Mengchang, the chief clerk of Guyang County, had been attacked reached the military camp. Xu Tailai symbolically sent a few people to assist in the investigation, and then there was no further movement.

Everything is business as usual.

Three days later, the night was as dark as ink.

In a large and spacious tent in the center of the camp, twenty black-armored soldiers holding swords were lined up in an orderly manner. The armor shone coldly and eerily, and the atmosphere was depressing.

If any soldier saw this scene, he would be dumbfounded.

The black-armored soldiers of Wei State!

They are the most elite troops guarding the capital. It is rumored that they were built to imitate the Wei Wuzu of Wei State. Every soldier is a genius picked from thousands of miles away. It is rare for ordinary soldiers to even see one. But at this moment, they actually gathered twenty black-armored soldiers at once!

Zhao Tiande was still wearing silver armor, but unlike before, he was now wearing a helmet and a bright red cloak dragging on the ground.

He slowly closed the yellow pages account in front of him, his eyes were cold, and there seemed to be murderous intent flowing in them.

"We have enough evidence. It's time to close the net." At the beginning of last month, Zhao Tiande, the Censor-in-Chief, received a report from a person that more than a dozen people from the border garrison in Guyang County, from the deputy general Chen Gao to the centurion Wang Hu, had colluded with bandits to smuggle military equipment and food, and also embezzled disaster relief funds on a large scale.

After receiving the letter of accusation, he went to the General Demand Department to check the accounts of Guyang County in recent years, and indeed found that there were differences in the accounts of Guyang County.

Therefore, the matter was reported to the court, and he came to investigate under the pretext of comforting the soldiers on the border, and it has been more than a month.

His henchmen also found some clues, but due to the lack of direct evidence, they were not able to convict Chen Gao and others.

But now it’s different. The accounts of their smuggling are remembered clearly, enough to behead them all.

Tonight is the time to close the net!
"Order General Chen Gao to come here to discuss matters. You will arrest the intended target according to the plan and wait for my signal before taking action."

"Yes!"

……

That night, there was chaos.

Wu Fengdeng suddenly woke up from his sleep and turned to look.

There was a commotion outside the window and flames were everywhere.

"problem occurs!"

"What's going on outside?"

"Could it be that the bandits rushed in to seek revenge?"

……

Many soldiers were also awakened, put on their clothes and armor, and blocked the door, looking out.

"Brother Wu! Brother Wu!"

Just as Wu Fengdeng had just put on his clothes, Qiao Li rushed in with a panicked look on his face, tightly grasped his arm and shouted, "Something happened! Something big happened outside!"

"Just now I saw with my own eyes that General Chen Gao was captured by Lord Zhao, and many black-armored soldiers arrested a group of captains and lieutenants!"

"Also, Captain Xu and Commander Wang are missing too. Some say they killed the guys on night duty and escaped during the chaos!"

He spoke it all in one breath like bursting pearls, and Wu Fengdeng was visibly stunned when he heard it.

Is this... the truth revealed?

But he clearly hasn't handed in the account book yet!

Oh, right, the account book!
Wu Fengdeng quickly found an excuse to send Qiao Li away, then walked to his own closet, flipped open a pile of clothes and other items, and reached in.

Empty.

gone!
"How is that possible? I didn't mention it to anyone!"

Wu Fengdeng was completely stunned.

After killing Xie Mengchang, the account book had already been burned in the eyes of others, and he did not mention the fact that he had hidden it to anyone.

After all, he is weak and alone now, and he doesn't know who is above Xu Tailai. If he rashly hands it over, it will be troublesome and bring disaster to himself and Jiang Qiyu.

So he planned to hide it for a while and hand it over when the time was right.

But I didn't expect it to be stolen!
"I am now a sergeant. No one in the barracks dares to touch my things, so the thief can only be someone from outside. It is very likely that he knew about the dirty deal between Xu Tailai and others. And how did he know that I have accounts here?"

Wu Fengdeng was completely confused and puzzled.

"That must be... Zhang Lubing!"

"How fierce! His swordsmanship is so sharp after he reached the late stage of skin refining!"

"He is... also going to flee for fear of crime?"

At this time, the soldiers at the door were looking not far away, still exclaiming in surprise.

When Wu Fengdeng heard the sound, he looked and saw Zhang Lubing riding a black and red horse, carrying a heavy package, and taking advantage of the chaos to escape towards the southern gate of the camp.

Several soldiers wanted to step forward to stop him, but they were beheaded one after another by him. His brutality was so horrifying that they dared not step forward.

Wu Fengdeng's eyes darkened, and he immediately picked up his spear and rushed out.

This is a rare opportunity to clear one's name and make a contribution!
"Horse!"

With a furious shout, Lao Hu, who was leading his horse to chase not far away, was stunned for a moment, and then he whipped him hard!
Phew!!!!

The warhorse's front leg was raised high and it neighed frequently, galloping forward in pain, running wildly and recklessly, with no intention of slowing down or stopping.

When Wu Fengdeng heard the sound, he looked sideways and immediately reached out to grab the reins. The huge momentum instantly pulled him into the air, parallel to the ground.

Then he landed steadily on the saddle, and the cold light of the heavy spear quickly flowed behind him.

drive!
