Upon hearing this, Deputy General Pukou, who was originally confronting with a sword, immediately dispelled some of his doubts.
Invite Master Zhang to come, which at least shows that the other party is confident!
As Zhang Lu's confidant, he naturally knew which side his commander was on, so he quickly shouted, "Everyone, put down your weapons and cooperate with their investigation."
"Also, send someone to invite Master Zhang over immediately."
"Yes."
Following the deputy general's order, all the soldiers in Pukou laid down their weapons and surrendered.
In addition, there was another scout who rode his horse at full speed towards Zhang Lu's mansion.
"May I ask your name, sir?"
The deputy general forced a flattering smile, came up to Xu Shan and asked cautiously.
"My master's surname is Xu!"
Xu Shan didn't say anything, and the person accompanying him answered immediately.
"Master Xu?"
"Forgive my ignorance, I've never heard of a man surnamed Xu in Prince Ning's Mansion!"
After the deputy general finished speaking, Mr. Xu, who was looking out over the entire Pukou with his hands behind his back, sneered without even turning his head, "There's none in Prince Ning's Mansion, but there are in the capital!"
At this point, Xu Shan tilted his head and said, "Xu Shan, have you heard of it?"
"Ah? Xu... Shan? Xu Bantian?"
"you you……"
'Snapped. '
Before the deputy general could finish his words, the people closest to him had already clamped him down and blocked his mouth.
"Report!"
"Reporting to Lord Xu, the Liuhe garrison that entered the city has completed control of the camp."
"Report!"
"Reporting to Lord Xu, the Broadsword Battalion has taken control of the entire city defense."
"Report!"
"Reporting to Lord Xu, the Ghost Pavilion has infiltrated Pukou and is ready to take action at any time."
"Woo-woo!"
Deputy General Pukou, whose mouth was blocked, opened his eyes wide and struggled hard.
He hoped that this method would encourage his colleagues nearby to resist vigorously and attract the attention of his boss Zhang Lu.
But what about reality?
As soon as he ordered the defenders to lay down their weapons, the situation became irreversible.
In addition, although they were in Pukou, they had heard of Xu Yanwang, who half covered the sky with one hand.
At this time, if anyone retaliates without any courtesy, what awaits them will be ruthless killing.
Pukou, inside the commander-in-chief’s mansion!
Only after seeing Gui Hai Yidao off did Zhang Lu go to sleep.
But the servant who came hurriedly to report brought him back to reality from his dream.
He hurried out while putting on his clothes.
"What on earth happened that made you come here in the middle of the night?"
"In reply to your Excellency, Gui Hai Yidao, the top expert in the Ning Palace, and dozens of his men were ambushed and killed on their way back to the capital."
"Prince Ning's Mansion has sent people to Pukou to investigate this matter thoroughly!"
"What did you say?"
Upon hearing this, not only Zhang Lu, but even Zhan Peng and Xiao Xiangzi who had moved from the side room were surprised.
Just a few hours ago, they joined forces to severely injure Deng Ziyue and Zhuque, one of the four Tongzhi of the Zhenfu Division.
An hour ago, Gui Hai Yidao was still in Pukou collecting the antidote for the Five Poison Powder. How come he was suddenly surrounded and killed?
After several people looked at each other, Zhang Lu asked, "What exactly happened?"
"It happened suddenly, and the adults who came didn't explain it."
"But according to them, anyone who knows the time and route of Gui Hai Yidao's departure is a suspect."
"We are now starting the investigation with the soldiers on duty at the top of the city walls. Commander Zhang, please come over and observe!"
Hearing this, Xiaoxiangzi said coldly, "This is very strange!"
"Zhan Peng!"
"Master is here."
"Go with Commander Zhang and take a look."
"If anything happens, we can look after each other."
In Xiaoxiangzi's opinion, his disciple already possesses the power close to that of heavenly punishment.
Even when dealing with emergencies, he can notify himself immediately.
"Master Xiao, you are being too cautious."
"In Pukou, just a few dozen people can't make any waves."
"You dare to directly show your badge and say that you are from Prince Ning's Mansion. Obviously you know the relationship between me and Prince Ning."
“Not many people know about this.”
Hearing Zhang Lu's words, Xiao Xiangzi couldn't find any fault with them, but he still replied, "Better safe than sorry!"
"Master, you are right."
"Then I'll have to trouble Senior Brother Zhan!"
"It should."
"Ready your horse!"
"Rush to the city wall immediately and see what's going on."
"Yes."
Following Zhang Lu's order, more than ten personal guards and Zhan Peng rushed to the top of the city wall.
"who?"
"Open your eyes and take a good look. This is Pukou's commander, Zhang Lu."
"Ah? Commander Zhang?"
"Please come in. My master is questioning me in the tent."
Zhang Lu had no doubt about this and rode his horse into the tent.
As soon as they left, Xuan Yueyu, who was hiding in the dark, ordered his men to block the door of the tent with a fence.
And made a gesture towards the killer in the dark!
"Zhang, General Zhang, you're here. This gentleman from Prince Ning's mansion dragged the deputy general to the dungeon and tortured him without asking any questions."
"Too arrogant."
"what?"
As soon as Zhang Lu dismounted, he heard a "soldier" coming forward to report, and he was immediately furious.
Although he stands on the side of Prince Ning, he is not someone who can be bullied by just any Tom, Dick or Harry!
After saying this, Zhang Lu led everyone rushing towards the dungeon angrily.
'Snapped. '
"Ow."
"Say or not?"
As soon as they entered the dungeon, Zhang Lu and others heard the sound of torture.
Zhang Lu, feeling deeply offended, screamed before anyone arrived: "Who dares to torture my people in Pukou?"
"You don't want to live anymore, do you?"
As he said this, several people led by Zhang Lu rushed into the cell on the bottom floor.
In the dim light of the fire, he vaguely saw the bloody deputy general and the two big men who were torturing him.
Not far from him, a young man who was not even half an adult was sitting with his legs crossed, drinking tea leisurely.
"I think the one who doesn't want to live should be you—Zhang Lu!"
"Ok?"
As the young man finished his drink, a guard who had come with Zhang Lu rushed forward and said, "You bastard."
"In Pukou, no one dares to speak to my master like this."
"Even if Prince Ning comes, we still have to be polite."
'Snapped. '
As soon as he finished speaking, a big man standing next to the young man slapped him hard on the side of the face.
'Plop.'
"Ow."
This sudden scene also made Zhang Lu, Zhan Peng and others instantly angry and embarrassed.
"you……"
Without waiting for them to finish their words, the big man who attacked roared, "In the capital, no one dares to bare their teeth to my Master Xu."
"Xu, Master Xu? You, you are..."
Zhang Lu's head started buzzing when he heard the words "Master Xu". Before he could finish his words, the deputy general, who was only breathing his last, said with difficulty, "General..."
“He, he is from the capital, Xu Bantian!”
'boom.'
