In the Dingxiang military camp, Li Ling and his party have returned.
The map of the capital city was unfolded and laid out on the table. Li Ling pointed at the map and told the results of his investigation.
"Here, here, and Beicheng Izumobo. We explored them separately and finally locked these three locations."
After Li Ling finished speaking, he looked up at Su Lu, waiting for Su Lu's instructions.
Zhao Pu frowned and said: "Commander, my brothers have tried their best and can only focus on these three areas. I want to be more detailed. There is no definite evidence and there is no way to search again."
The four of them looked at Su Lu, wondering why Su Lu was working so hard. Could it be that this way they could find the Tule people's nest?
The governor is really whimsical.
Su Lu kept the four people's expressions in his eyes and said nothing. No matter what these guys thought, as long as they were willing to work hard.
For such a large Yanjing, it is already very good to be able to narrow the scope to only these three areas.
Su Lu took a picture of the map and gave instructions:
"Zhao Pu, go to Beicheng Izumobo, take your Yiwei battalion, disperse everyone, wait for the guy named Wusuli Taiji, see which house he escapes to, and then follow him in."
"Li Ling, you go to this area and disperse all the people. Be sure to have someone guarding every door and keep it secret."
"Li Dazhuang, go to Xicheng, guard this area, and spread the people out. There should be at least one person on each street."
"You three, listen carefully. Once you find Wusuli Taiji, don't arrest him. Follow him. I want to see who is harboring the Thule people in the capital."
Su Lu finished his instructions, and Zhao Pu and the others went as ordered.
Li Lin's face looked a little ugly: "Captain, all three of them have things to do, why did they leave me alone?"
Su Lu picked up the bag, put it on his head, and gave instructions:
"That's because there is a mission that you must do. Come, follow me to see Ussuli Taiji, secretly give him a dagger, and then transfer the guarding sergeant away."
Li Lin was a little confused: "Are we going to release Ussuli Taiji?"
Su Lu strode outside: "To be precise, you received the order to create conditions for Wusuli Taiji to escape, but you must not let the guarding imperial army discover it."
Li Lin was a little confused and didn't understand what Su Lu meant by doing this, but he had one advantage. He was very resolute in executing orders. He would do whatever the governor ordered.
When the two arrived at the camp where Wusuli Taiji was imprisoned, Su Lu asked and said:
"Where are the Thule people?"
The guard clasped his fists in front of his chest and saluted, and said respectfully: "You are still tied to the bed, Commander."
Su Lu winked at Li Lin, entered the tent, and looked at Ussuli Taiji who was tied to the bed:
"Captain Li, this is the Thule people you want to see, take a look."
Li Lin looked confused. What's the situation? You asked me to come here, why did you ask me to come to see this Thule man?
However, Li Lin reacted quickly. He walked into the camp in a few steps, looked at Wusuli Taiji, and said with disgust:
"This is the Thule people. Don't they look very ferocious?"
Su Lu chuckled: "Even if it's a wolf, it can't look evil even if it's tied into a rice dumpling. I've already released the news that Wusuli Taiji has confessed and will attack soon..."
Su Lu deliberately lowered his voice, and then gave Li Lin instructions:
"Give him the knife secretly and ask him to go out and report the news immediately."
Li Lin was stunned for a moment, but he still said: "Captain, don't say too much, don't let this Tule man listen. I'll go over and have a look to see what's special about this Thule man."
Su Lu said deliberately and disgustedly: "You have a lot of things to do, just look at it. I'll wait for you at the handsome account. If you see it, come to me."
After Su Lu finished speaking, he strode out of the camp, stood outside the camp, and ordered the guarding sergeant:
"The four of you come with me, get some captains back, gather your troops, and prepare to capture the Thule people and the traitors."
In the camp, Li Lin's palms were sweating nervously. According to Su Lu's arrangement, he walked over, threw the dagger under Wusuli Taiji, and lowered his voice.
"I will move the remaining imperial troops away, leave quickly, and go back to report the news so that they will not be fooled."
Wusuli Taiji glanced at Li Lin and lowered his voice and said: "Okay"
Li Lin stood up and left, leaving the tent and giving instructions:
"You guys, come with me to the school grounds. The Grand Governor gave instructions yesterday to change the flag for our army. You follow me to get the old flag."
Wusuli Taiji was worried, the cunning guy actually released false news.
Thinking of his companions, Wusuli Taiji became even more anxious. Those guys had bad tempers. If they received false news, they might really move. If they were caught by the Han army, it would be the end.
After cutting the rope, Wusuli Taiji lay on the ground and listened, determined the location of the nearest imperial army, and left the camp.
Maoyao evaded the first patrol of the Imperial Guards, and after evading several Imperial Guards in a row, Wusuli Taiji saw Li Lin.
"Go that way."
Li Lin pointed out a passage that Su Lu had just cleared.
Wusuli Taiji rushed over without hesitation.
Along the way, Wusuli Taiji felt that just as he was passing by, there were forbidden troops passing by from behind, and his doubts about Li Lin completely disappeared.
The military camp was still very heavily guarded, but the traitor found a time when he could pass through.
After leaving the military camp, Wusuli Taiji heard chaotic footsteps coming from the camp, mixed with the angry roars of the imperial guards.
"The Thule people escaped"
"Come on, come with me, he can't escape far."
Wusuli Taiji didn't dare to stop, so he went straight into the alley next to him and started running with one foot deep and one foot shallow.
Behind, the footsteps of the Imperial Guards sounded.
Wusuli Taiji didn't know how long he had been running, but he finally saw a familiar road.
Following the secret notes he had made, he found his whereabouts.
Along the familiar road, Wusuli Taiji felt something was wrong.
There seemed to be a lot more people on the long street, and all of them were idle, and they didn't look like good people at first glance.
Out of caution, Wusuli Taiji walked around the alley.
When we arrived at the back door of the house, we made sure no one was following us, so we climbed over the wall.
Behind the corner, Li Ling let out a long breath and asked Su Lu, who was pursuing him:
"Captain, why did you catch up so quickly?"
Su Lu pointed at the local dog with its tail raised around a meat stall not far away.
"I added some spices to the Thule man and let the dogs follow the scent and chase him."
Li Ling's eyes widened: "A dog can still be used like this!"
Su Lu patted Li Ling's shoulder and ordered:
"Stop wasting your time. Gather your men and fight them in. Anyone who resists will be shot to death."
Li Ling became excited, held his waist knife, and shouted to the soldiers following him:
"You're deaf, why don't you get up, gather all the battalions, and prepare to storm this house."
After a while, Li Lin also came with people. Su Lu waved his hand:
"Surround them and don't let anyone go."
Soon, the house was surrounded.
Han Mansion?
Looking at the plaque on the gate, Su Lu pinched his temples in confusion. Is that senior official in the court named Han?
"Yes"
Li Ling stepped forward and knocked on the door.
"Squeak"
The door opened, and a house slave wearing a small hat poked his head out. Seeing the imperial guards outside the door, he spoke arrogantly.
"My master is not at home. If you have anything to do, go directly to the emperor's eldest son's house."
Li Ling relaxed his arms and snatched out the slave, threw him on the front steps, pulled out his sword and raised his arms.
"The Commander-in-Chief has orders to go in and capture the Tule people. Anyone who dares to resist will be shot without mercy."
Kicking the door open, Li Ling was the first to rush in.
Su Lu looked at the guards pouring into the gate like a tide, and felt a little worried. He raised his hand and threw a level 3 short sword soldier onto Li Ling, calling out to Li Ling.
"Li Ling, I, the Commander-in-Chief, will lend you some strength and I must capture all the Thule people."
The little hat slave got up from the ground, pointed at Su Lu’s nose and cursed:
"Do you know whose mansion this is? If you are finished, our master will not let you go."
