Du Weiming was really anxious. Things seemed to be developing in a direction beyond his control. He didn't even know what Su Hao was doing now. ¤ Website address: sp; ¤ The less he could see the truth, the more worried he became.
He originally planned to put on airs and wait for Su Hao to come to the Guest House to inform him of the relevant matters. But now, he couldn't wait any longer, so he directly called his entourage and rushed to Xinglong Casino in a sedan.
The door of Xinglong Gambling House was as heavily guarded as the previous day. Du Weiming saw the small door that had been blown up by explosives. It looked like just a few bricks had fallen off, and the wall had been blackened. It didn't look like that.
It was as terrible as what the government officials had said before. He directed the bearers to carry the sedan straight to the main entrance of the gambling house, and then asked his entourage to negotiate with the guards.
"Du Tongzhi? I haven't heard of it."
The young leader of the guards was a young man. After hearing the introduction from Du Weiming's entourage, he shook his head like a rattle and claimed that he didn't know anything about Tongzhi or Shazhi.
"Tell you, Scholar Su, to come out!" Du Weiming jumped down from the sedan chair and shouted at the leader of the guards.
"Sir, are you talking about our Su Guard?" the guard leader asked.
"Exactly." Du Weiming replied coldly.
"He's not here," the guard leader said.
"Not there? Where has he been?" Du Weiming asked.
The leader of the guard continued to shake his head: "Sir, I don't dare to talk nonsense about the whereabouts of our guard. If you talk nonsense, you will be punished by military law."
"Damn you!" Du Weiming was so angry that he even uttered curse words.
People surnamed Su, please don’t be a fool like this! Yesterday, you made up an excuse to prevent me from entering the gambling house, and today you simply didn’t even show your head. This is to prevent me from getting in touch with the case! If you really plan to take the case
I covered my hand and asked you to say this in Runing City, okay? I drove three days to Luoshan County just to be teased like this by you?
"You all shout to me! I want to see how long Su Gaizhi can hide!" Du Weiming ordered his followers.
"What are you shouting for?" the followers asked confusedly. They remembered that their master was always gentle and gentle, and he had never been so angry before.
"Tell Su Gaizhi to get out!" Du Weiming blurted out, but before he finished speaking, he saw the eyes of the soldiers in front of him widened, and they also raised the spears and muskets in their hands. Du Weiming said this
Only then did he realize that such a provocation was risky, and he quickly changed his words: "Just shout: Xu Xueshi, Du Tongzhi is waiting for you outside!"
"Xueshi Su and Du Tongzhi are waiting for you outside!"
"Xueshi Su, Du Tongzhi is waiting for you outside!"
"Scholar Su, please show up quickly!"
The entourage shouted at the top of their lungs to the gambling house. Several of them had practiced their voices, and their shouts were very penetrating. In the early morning in Luoshan County, it seemed particularly clear, and there was quite a lingering sound.
It will last for three days. In the past few days, the Xinglong Gambling House incident has become a household name in Luoshan County. Now hearing such shouts, many people watching the excitement did not know what was going on, so they put on their clothes and went to work.
They ran out to watch.
"It's such an insult to politeness! It's such an insult to politeness!" Seeing the people around him pointing fingers at him, Du Weiming was so embarrassed that he just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in. But what if he didn't shout? Could he just let Su Hao hide?
Don’t come out to meet people?
The entourage shouted for about half a quarter of an hour. Finally there was movement in the casino. A disheveled old man walked out sleepily, looked at Du Weiming and others, and shouted: "What are you shouting for? Are you calling a donkey?"
"
"Old man! This is our Du Tongzhi, how dare you be so presumptuous!" A follower yelled at the old man. In their opinion, Su Hao had a higher official position in the survey camp, but he was not as high as Du Weiming.
.As for other people, how can they be qualified to curse in front of Du Weiming?
Who knew that the old man was not an easy person to talk to. Before the follower's voice could reach the ground, the old man pulled out a saber from the waist of the soldier on the side, stared at him and shouted: "What did you call me? Try calling me again."
!”
"Uh... Sir, please calm down. I am Du Weiming, a co-president of Runing Mansion. May I ask the old gentleman his name and what position he holds?" Du Weiming saw the formation and quickly stepped forward to smooth things over. He found that the soldiers around him were not interested in that person.
The old man looked very respectful, so he guessed that this person should be an important member of Su Hao's army.
The old man held the knife, looked at Du Weiming several times, and said lazily: "My name is Xu Guangzu, I don't have any official position, I'm just a veteran."
Bah! Du Weiming cursed in his heart, a veteran dared to be so awesome and dared to threaten my servants. However, since he had lowered his head, he didn't bother to argue anymore, but asked: "How dare you
Ask Veteran Xu, are there any generals in charge of the gambling house now?"
"I'm in charge." Xu Guangzu replied, "What do you want?"
"You..." Du Weiming was stunned, "Didn't you say you were just a veteran?"
"But when Su Gai called me Uncle Xu, do you think I can take care of things?" Xu Guangzu said proudly.
Du Weiming nodded: "It turns out that Mr. Xu is Xu Xueshi's uncle..."
Xu Guangzu shook his head and said: "What kind of clan uncle? He and I are not relatives. He just screams like this to take advantage of me."
"What are you talking about?" Du Weiming was completely confused by Xu Guangzu. How could he still take advantage of calling someone uncle?
"Originally Wang Yi'e called me Uncle Xu, but now Su Gaizhi also calls me Uncle Xu. In this way, doesn't he become a brother with the Minister of War? Do you think this is taking advantage?" Xu Guangzu said angrily.
.
"The Minister of the Ministry of War!" Du Weiming was so scared that he didn't fall over. What kind of god are these people? They could actually let the Minister of the Ministry of War call him uncle.
"Tell me, what kind of soul did you, a co-conspirator like you, come to the gambling house so early in the morning?" Xu Guangzu asked lightly after successfully frightening Du Weiming.
Du Weiming didn't know whether what Xu Guangzu said was true or not, but from the fact that Xu Guangzu dared to call Wang Yi'e by his first name, at least this person had some background and should not be underestimated. Thinking of this, his attitude softened a bit,
Asked: "Mr. Xu, I am eager to see Xu Xueshi. Can Mr. Xu inform me on my behalf?"
"Do you want to see Su Gaizhi?" Xu Guangzu nodded, then turned to the sergeant next to him and asked, "Where are you on guard?"
"Return to Mr. Xu Qian, the garrison leader led his team to chase the strongman last night and has not returned yet." The sergeant replied, Xu Guangzu serves as Mr. Qian of the Firearms Department, and the sergeants do not dare to neglect him.
"Oh, that means he's not here." Xu Guangzu said, "Du Tongzhi, please come back."
"Then...when will Bachelor Su come back?" Du Weiming almost cried.
Xu Guangzu shook his head and said: "It's hard to say. As for chasing the strongman, I might have chased him all the way to the strongman's lair, or he might have been ambushed by the strongman. Then I don't know whether I can come back. Du Tongzhi, please come back, Su Gai
If he comes back, I'll just tell him... By the way, don't yell any more, veteran, I spent the whole night gambling, and I just fell down and was confused for a while, and I was woken up by you."
After that, without waiting for Du Weiming to say anything else, he turned around and walked back to the gambling house.
"This old guy!" One of the followers cursed in a low voice, but did not dare to challenge Xu Guangzu. Everyone knows that this kind of veteran gangster is the most difficult to mess with. They all crawled from the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood.
Those who come out do not take their own lives seriously, nor do they take the lives of others seriously. Is this something that literati like them can afford to offend?
Du Weiming returned to the guest house dejectedly in a sedan, and then sent someone to find the doctor. It was said that he had an old problem with heartache, so there was no need to mention this matter.
Besides, Su Hao was really not in the gambling house at this time. After three hours of rapid march, he led a group of people and arrived outside Xiguan, Xixian County, which is adjacent to Luoshan County. Intelligence showed that there was a Huguang restaurant in Xixian County.
Banks are the main culprits of loan sharking and harming the people. Su Hao came here to inspect Huguang banks.
"Stop, who is coming?" the defenders at Xiguan City Gate shouted loudly, holding spears.
"Officers and soldiers are on errands!" Xiong Min, the leader of the team, responded, but his feet showed no intention of stopping.
"Which officers and soldiers are there?" Ma Wu, the small leader of the city defenders, continued to ask. Of course he could tell that the other party was an officer and soldier, but why would a group of officers and soldiers want to enter the city?
"We are surveying the camp, and this is our garrison master." Xiong Minyang pointed at Su Hao and said.
"Kanyu camp?" Ma Wu was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that the county government had specially issued a notice to them two days ago, saying that they should be wary of a team called Kanyu camp. Thinking of this, he quickly asked several people around him
The soldiers greeted each other, stepped forward together, raised their spears, and said: "We dare not let you enter the city until we are notified."
"Fuck you, you dare to block my way!" Xiong Minyang had already walked in front of Ma Wu. Without any explanation, he kicked the spear away from Ma Wu's hand. The other city defenders
Before they could understand what was going on, several Kanyu camp soldiers had already rushed forward, disarmed them, and kicked them down one by one.
The city defenders in each prefecture and county are all local guard sergeants. There is no military training at all. They usually only have the ability to frighten the people with spears. When they encounter a well-trained field army like Kanyu Camp,
, it can be said that there is no power to fight back at all.
"Everyone, please tell me what you have to say." Ma Wu knew that he was facing a tough situation, so he repeatedly apologized.
"Do you know the roads in the city?" Xiong Minyang asked, squeezing Ma Wu's neck with his hands.
"I know, I know." Ma Wu said.
Xiong Minyang said: "Let your people continue to guard the city gate, and you come with us."
"Where to go?" Ma Wu asked.
"I will tell you when I enter the city!" Xiong Minyang said, and then pushed with his hand. Ma Wu stumbled forward two steps, not daring to resist, and obediently led everyone into the city.
