late Qing Dynasty arrest

Li Guolou wanted to go out of the city to suppress the bandits, and in the past two days, he had been deduced on the sand table, planning to attack the White Lotus Sect lair in Balizhuang.After the assembly of the people and horses, 300 members of the militia and 100 members of the criminal department were dispatched, and the large force was about to leave. The secrecy work was meticulous and complete.

Balizhuang is not an easy bone to gnaw, backed by the Yunmeng Mountains, it is easy for the rebels to escape into the northern grassland.What's more troublesome is that although Balizhuang is small, it has high walls made of rammed earth.It is very difficult to wipe out hundreds of Bailian followers.

The large army set out, took two cannons, hid in the carriage, and more than 400 soldiers in disguise went out of the city from Andingmen, the north gate of the city, in four groups.

Li Guolou was the first group of people to leave the city, and only he knew the destination of the operation. There were more than 100 people pretending to be a caravan, and there was a 30-man long spear team from the Ministry of Criminal Justice. The rest of the people were all members of the militia.His team was used to block the back road of the bandits. The road to Yunmeng Mountain in the north of Balizhuang was narrow, and he wanted to get there first without showing any signs.

The cavalry pretended to be going to the north to do business, and the "Monkey King" Sun Yue pretended to be the shopkeeper. They knew that they were going out of the city this time to suppress bandits, but their destination was still unknown until the first day of rest.When people go north, everyone wears sheepskin coats, and the carriages are full of goods, mainly cloth and tea bricks.The guns and ammunition were all hidden in the carriage, and the team of more than 100 people continued to be orderly, and some people stood guard at night.

Li Guolou was so filthy that he wore a sheepskin coat and a dog fur hat, and was on duty in the middle of the night.For the team of 100 people, Li Guolou has great confidence.A team was full of vigor in the early days of formation. These Han policemen and militia members who came from poor backgrounds, if they want to get ahead, they can only rely on loyalty and bravery to fight for their positions, and they will sacrifice themselves for the motherland.

The decline of a team is slowly brought down by the Manchus, so Li Guolou does not like to deal with the noble children of the Manchus. This kind of people has too many bad habits and refuses to obey orders. It is difficult to punish the Manchus in military discipline. Hearing the merits of his ancestors, his ears were calloused.

In the evening, there were bursts of laughter from inside the Cedar Forest Inn. In the seemingly peaceful inn, are there any spies from the White Lotus Sect?Li Guolou wasn't sure about this, he didn't dare to step into the Cedar Forest Inn, for fear that some spies from the White Lotus Sect would know him.

Li Guolou and ten coachmen unloaded the wheels, checked the axles of twenty carriages, and repaired the damaged parts.This is what every caravan has to do. The axles of the carriages will wear out after driving for a day, and the team needs to be repaired every day when they rest.So the coachman in the convoy will repair the carriage, unless it is a short trip, the coachman can rest easy.At this time, the axle of the carriage was made of iron, and the outside of the tire was rubber, but there was no inner tube.The carriage was driving on bumpy bluestone roads and dirt roads, and the tires were severely worn. The coachman had to maintain the carriage every day.

How could Li Guolou know how to repair cars? He just watched ten coachmen busy and handed over repair tools. He specialized in his career, so he was not interested in repairing cars.

"One night couple, two people in the same bed, three people peeping, four legs crossed;;;;;;"

The inside of the inn was brightly lit, and the sounds of punching punches from the dinner guests could be heard outside the shop. It was the first time Li Guolou heard this kind of punching command, and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Don't laugh!" Gao Yao Wuyun, who was acting as a guide, reprimanded loudly, and the whip in his hand was still in the air.She was used to hearing market slang in Jishikou, and she had memorized all kinds of drinking orders since she was a child, and she could yell several times while drinking.

Li Guolou bowed his head and said with a smile, "Shoot too!"

Gao Yao and Wu Yun scolded angrily: "Little Li, don't get carried away! My whip doesn't show respect."

Li Guolou knew that he had slipped his tongue, so he quickly lowered his head and dared not say a word.

A person dressed as a chivalrous woman at the gate of the backyard has very sensitive ears and can hear Li Guolou's weird English.She stepped towards a row of carriages, and she was very interested in these more than a hundred people. A chivalrous woman is a hero who "robs the rich and helps the poor", so how can she not be interested when she sees the belongings on the twenty carriages.

Fei Lingxue patted the carriage tightly wrapped in oilcloth, and approached Li Guolou step by step. She glanced at Li Guolou with her red and phoenix eyes. The big coat is passable, but with a fair face, he doesn't look like a peddler who sleeps in the open.Looking at Gao Yao Wuyun next to her, she felt a chill in her heart. She recognized this Mongolian guide as Gao Yao Wuyun.

Gao Yao Wuyun is a public figure who patrols outside in police uniform all day long. She doesn't know anyone, but they remember her at a glance.

Fearless, Fei Lingxue went up to look at Li Guolou and said, "Little brother, where are you from?"

Fei Lingxue is wearing a leather jacket, wearing moccasin boots, and carrying a three-foot sword behind her back. She is 1.6 meters five and has an oval face. Her hair is combed up in a high bun and wrapped in a blue silk cloth. The upturned lips reveal a sneer that sees all the wind and dust.

Li Guolou could tell at a glance that this heroine was a spy and a kung fu master, so he lowered his eyebrows and said softly, "Young brother is a businessman, what kind of person is eldest sister?"

"Anyway, we're not a bunch of people." Fei Lingxue looked the carriage up and down, trying to see what was inside the carriage, and whether it was worth her orders.

Gao Yao Wuyun has long been used to dealing with people from the Jianghu, so he inserted himself into Fei Lingxue's side, glared at him, and said, "Woman, do you understand the rules? No one on this road has any ideas for our Qiao family, haven't you seen the banner?"

The banner with the word Qiao was planted on the carriage. This was the banner of Qiao Zhiyong, a large merchant in Shanxi. He was doing business with the princes of Mongolia in the north, and Qiao Zhiyong belonged to the largest private merchant.Qiao Zhiyong had the courage to take risks when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was rampant, and "smuggled" goods from the south to the north across the Yangtze River. He became famous by doing what ordinary merchants dared not do.Now it has directly traded with the Russians. The firm "Fusheng Gong" is well-known in Baotou. There are also two bank accounts "Da De Tong" and "Da De Heng". There is a relationship between "Fusheng Gong" and many goods are shipped to "Fusheng Gong" in Baotou.

The [-] carriages and entourage led by Li Guolou borrowed Qiao Zhiyong's name, so that no one would doubt them and they could go smoothly along the way.

"Oh! Really? I know all of Master Qiao's shopkeepers. Where is Wang Dexiu ranked?" Fei Lingxue asked nonchalantly, immediately making Gao Yao Wuyun speechless.

Li Guolou pulled away Gao Yao's dark clouds, and this subordinate also tried to scare people, and he spoke carelessly and a few more words, and then he showed the fearless feet of an ignorant person.

"Oh! Heroine, I've never heard of the person you're talking about. Give me another name." Li Guolou raised his voice, how could he not be prepared to deal with the enemy? The name and the roster of "Fusheng Gong" personnel in the capital are all memorized.

"Chi Chi Chi!" Fei Lingxue sneered, and said, "You old man, I've seen it for a long time, do you want me to go inside and shout? Gao Yao arrests the head." Seeing the people next to him approaching aggressively , Fei Linxue said unambiguously, fearlessly: "Don't talk nonsense, if you want to keep the road money from now on, it will cost you 100 taels of silver."

Fei Lingxue stretched out her palm and blackmailed the arrester face to face. It was because she was lucky that she could make a fortune without fighting.The dog official actually disguised himself, he must have an ulterior purpose, as a Jianghu person, he would not miss this opportunity.

Gao Yao Wu Yun lowered his voice and said angrily: "You thief, believe it or not, I hacked you."

Gao Yao Wuyun's complexion has changed, and his big red face has turned purple. He died before his ambition was fulfilled. I didn't expect that people would recognize her. The only reason is that she has a unique figure, which makes people unforgettable. She is right in disguise. She has no effect.The knuckles of her big hands slammed loudly, as if she wanted to crush all living things.

Fei Lingxue was not afraid, she stood still and straight, if she dared to make a move, she would use a concealed weapon, at such a short distance, to kill without mercy.Fei Lingxue's sleeves fluttered, and the mechanical spring in the sleeve was ready to go off.

Li Guolou looked at Fei Linxue, but seeing that Fei Lingxue's legs were a little out of character, he understood that she was a female horse thief who specialized in outposts, and if there were fat sheep, he would notify his brothers hiding in the mountains or on the grassland to get a ticket.This kind of person has the most poisonous eyes. She knows when the merchant's goods contain silver and valuables.She sniffed her nose just now, and she should have smelled the smell of gunpowder in the carriage.

Horse thieves are unpredictable people. They may be herdsmen at ordinary times, and they will kindly treat you to a bowl of kumiss, but when a large group of herdsmen get together, they will vote for it.

"Gao Yao guides you to back off, I'll have a word with the heroine." Li Guolou ordered.

The people next to him were well-organized and all retreated. Li Guolou glanced at him and said, "Prairie heroine, what do you call her?" People are all frogs in a well.

"People in the Jianghu call me Feihu, Xiao Li, you can call me that too." Fei Lingxue swept towards Li Guolou's open sheepskin coat. Knowing that this group of people is strong and not going to fight easily, it is better to negotiate.

"Oh;;;;;; I remember, Flying Fox Lady, money is negotiable, but how do I know you won't betray us?" Li Guolou really wanted to shoot the female horse thief to save trouble all night Sleepless.

"Oh! See the birdcage upstairs? No one will know until I open it. The four pigeons inside will follow you all the way. That's all right." Fei Lingxue saw the meaning of Li Guolou's opening his clothes to reveal a musket, and took a step back. Not too pushy.

Li Guolou looked up at the pigeon coop outside the eaves on the second floor of the inn. The pigeon's cry of "coo coo coo!" has long made him suspicious.

"Okay! Let Gao Yao see how many pigeons there are?" Li Guolou said without hesitation.

"Please! Miss Gao Yao." Fei Lingxue stretched out her hand politely. With a pair of sharp eyes, she can make a lot of money. The little boy has no background. She thought she was alone, so she deceived the dog officer with a few pigeons.

"Oh! Feihu, don't you still have two good friends? Let them not move their nests, and don't do anything they regret." Li Guolou raised his voice and warned Fei Linxue from behind.

Fei Lingxue's expression changed, and she turned to look at Li Guolou, she didn't expect that the two accomplices who were drinking alcohol did not show their faces, so the dog officer saw a flaw, she underestimated "Little Li".

"Xiao Li, it's time to go in for dinner. I'll treat you to pay the bill." Fei Lingxue said loudly.

"Okay!" Li Guolou nodded to the "Monkey King" Sun Yue who came out of the inn, and stepped into the Cedar Forest Inn.He has to look carefully, if there are any other people here, if there are spies from the White Lotus Sect, Li Guolou believes that he will be able to find out.

Li Guolou's team is an outpost, and in order for the next three teams to pass through here safely, he will try his best to find out the spies of the White Lotus Sect.Li Guolou glanced at the people in the inn. In the steaming lobby, there were merchants, quacks, bosses, and fellows.Looking at the unfamiliar faces, Li Guolou suddenly understood why the officers and soldiers would kill all the bandits without leaving any survivors. If there is no mercy, the enemy will be hidden among the common people, making people at a loss what to do and how to defend against them.

Li Guolou figured it out, if he entered the army, he would also be a murderous commander.
