Take the warehouse back to the end of the Ming Dynasty

"Oh!"

After a loud noise, the door was knocked open, and the latch behind the door was also broken.

As soon as they rushed through the gate, Baihu saw a well.

There are some footprints beside the well that have not been cleaned up, and there are some water stains on the edge of the well.

There is a stone table and stone bench under the locust tree next to the well. The other stone benches are covered with dust and dead leaves, but only one of them is not only free of dust, but even has a watermark on it.

Although the courtyard was cleaned by Li Tianhe's servants, he became a little flustered after all, so it was inevitable that some clues were left behind.

Baihu looked at these things, and said with a puzzled look: "It doesn't look like no one lives here, but why didn't anyone respond to the knock on the door just now?"

"Is anyone there?" Baihu immediately looked inside and shouted loudly.

The soldiers behind him also hurriedly searched the yard.

"Anyone? Anyone?"

Baihu shouted several times, but there was still no response.

This weird scene made Baihu feel suspicious.

"My lord, this house has not been lived in for a long time." At this moment, a soldier approached Baihu.

Baihu asked, "How can you see that?"

"My lord, isn't that obvious? If there are people living in it, then there can't be so many fallen leaves in this yard. Besides, look at this house, it's covered with cobwebs outside. If people live in it, it's impossible It will look like this." The soldier pointed to the yard and the house behind the yard and explained in detail.

Baihu's eyes gradually lit up as he listened to the soldier's explanation.

"It seems that the governor of Shanxi should have fled here. Brothers, follow me and rush in and capture the governor of Shanxi alive!" Baihu took the 56 off his shoulder and rushed inside with excitement.

"Oh!"

Baihu kicked open the door of the main room and rushed in.

As soon as he rushed in, a huge cloud of smoke filled the air.

Baihu coughed twice, squinted his eyes and looked into the main room.

I saw a thick layer of dust on the ground in the main room, which was brought up a lot by the kicked open door just now.

"Go in!"

Baihu didn't care about whether it was clean or not, so he led the people and walked in.

After searching the main room, Baihu led the troops to search all the rooms again.

Unfortunately, no trace of Wu Zhen was found.

"Impossible, it doesn't make sense!" Baihu's face flashed blankly, and he looked at the backyard again, "Since there is no one in the house, then follow me to the backyard, I still don't believe it, there is still no one in the backyard! "

Baihu said and led the soldiers to the backyard.

As soon as they ran to the backyard, Baihu saw that the back door was wide open, and there were several water-stained, undried footprints left on the bluestone board of the back door.

Seeing this, Baihu shouted excitedly: "They must have run away from the back door, and chased after me!"

The eager Baihu didn't think too much about it at all. When he saw the open back door, his first reaction was to lead his troops to chase after him.

The door that opened was Li Tianhe's strategy. Now that there are Xuanzhen soldiers everywhere in the city, even if people like him escape, they may not be able to escape far. They might as well use the trick and let them mistakenly think that they are running out.

Li Tianhe and the others squatted in the dried cesspool, looked at the top of the latrine, and heard the sound of footsteps going away, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

The appearance of this cesspool is similar to that of the governor's yamen, and the cesspool is large enough to accommodate people like them.

"My lord, my stomach hurts, I can't do it, I want to take a shit!"

At this moment, a soldier clutched his stomach and suddenly yelled loudly.

Hearing this voice, Li Tianhe's heart was relieved and suddenly suspended again.

"What did you do? Why do you want to shit now?" Baihu looked at the soldier helplessly.

"Last night, my stomach got cold, and this morning I ate cold canned food and drank some cold water, so now I have a bit of a stomachache." The soldier held his stomach in pain.

"Hurry up, I'll lead the men and horses away first, and you will follow up quickly later." Baihu warned, and led the rest of the men and horses to chase outside.

The soldier clutched his stomach, crossed his legs, and staggered towards the inside.

"The hut, the hut!" The soldiers kept talking about the hut.

Hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, Li Tianhe and the others hurriedly held their breath.

The location of the hut is conspicuous, just in the northeast corner of the backyard, it is a thatched shed built with thatch and earthen walls.

Because of disrepair for a long time, the withered grass on the thatched shed has long since rotted, revealing big holes one after another.

The floor of the hut is covered with rotten thatch, these things are black and rumbling, spread on the floor of the hut.

There are a few inconspicuous footprints on it, and there are traces of some people passing by in the latrine.

"Gollum!"

The moment the soldier rushed into the hut, there was a violent rumbling in his stomach.

The soldier squinted his eyes and frowned, rushed across the ground where footprints were still left, and ran to the latrine.

At this time, the soldiers were already suffering from suffocation, so they didn't bother to observe these changes.

He stood on the latrine, untied his trouser belt in a panic, and squatted down.

The moment he squatted down, a majestic air gushed out, and the soldier breathed a sigh of relief.

"Grumble!"

The soldier's stomach was rumbling non-stop, and the bottom was also dripping non-stop.

Li Tianhe and others squatting in the cesspool looked at the yellow viscous liquid left along the slope, and hurriedly covered their noses and mouths.

After a while, the soldier let out a sigh of relief, took a few clods of soil from the wall next to him, and wiped them.

"It's comfortable!" The soldier threw away the clod in his hand, stood up, tied up his trouser belt, picked up the gun beside him, and walked outside.

When the footsteps completely disappeared, these people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Now we just need to wait until it gets dark, and as long as it gets dark, we can run out while we're in trouble."

Li Tianhe looked at the crowd and lowered his voice very low.

Baihu led the soldiers and horses to chase outside for a long time, but they never found the governor.

He stopped at the end of a street, and said with a dull face: "We have been chasing for such a long time, how could we not even have a trace? This is not normal!"

"My lord, could it be that they hid in a certain common people's house? After all, he is the governor of Shanxi, and he should have some prestige in the Taiyuan mansion. If he really hid in a certain residence, then we really It’s hard to find.” A soldier looked at Baihu and expressed his thoughts.

Baihu nodded, "What you said is very reasonable. In my opinion, let's report to the Chief Soldier, and let the Chief Soldier release all the soldiers and horses to search the entire Taiyuan Mansion. Otherwise, relying on how many of us Well, if this goes on, when will it be the end?"

Baihu said and sent a few messengers to run in the direction of Prince Jin's mansion.

After Zhao Wen learned of this situation, he didn't hesitate, and directly issued an order to let all the soldiers start searching the Shanxi governor in the Taiyuan mansion.

At the same time as the search, it is also necessary to thoroughly clean up the defenders who have not been cleaned up.

At the same time, we will attack those green-skinned hooligans in the city who want to take advantage of the fire.

Not long after, all the soldiers and horses stationed in Taiyuan Mansion moved.

Taking the general banner as the unit, they began to conduct a carpet search in Taiyuan Mansion.

Unfortunately, until the sun set, the governor of Shanxi was still not found, and the governor of Shanxi seemed to have evaporated from the world.

The sky was about to get dark. In this era without street lights, it was not so easy to search for people at night.

Especially tonight, the sky is full of dark clouds, and it is about to rain, and the sky is even darker.

Zhao Wen stood outside the gate of King Jin's Mansion. Looking at the extremely dark night sky, he said to Li Xiaosan behind him: "Send the order, let the soldiers withdraw first, let them be stationed at the four gates, as long as the city Stand near the door, so you won't be able to catch them.

Now that it is about to rain, it is not a wise thing to search on a rainy night.

By the way, we will also send troops to patrol the city tonight, and we don't need to send many troops, just a hundred or so for each city gate. "

In this era without antibiotics, a small cold can kill a person.

Zhao Wen is not worried about a dozen people catching a cold, but he is afraid that many people will catch a cold and eventually form an epidemic, which will not be worth the candle.

Searching the governor of Shanxi is very important, but the soldiers under his command are even more important.

Although my soldiers also have raincoats, raincoats are not a panacea. With such heavy rain and the large number of people, some people will definitely catch a cold.

Besides, if the search continues at night, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among the people in the city.

Now that Taiyuan Mansion has just been captured, the first thing to do besides searching the governor of Shanxi is to appease the people in the city.

Li Xiaosan cupped his fists at Zhao Wen, "Follow your lord's order!"

After Li Xiaosan spread Zhao Wen's order to all the soldiers, these soldiers also began to go to the four city gates under the leadership of their respective captains.

The three city gates in the east, west and north were severely damaged, so there were more soldiers left behind at these three gates, and the south gate was almost intact, so there were fewer soldiers left here.

"Crash!"

At midnight, the sky seemed to be leaking, and the rain suddenly became heavier.

The rain from the sky was astonishing as if someone was pouring a basin of water down.

It didn't take long for water to appear on the streets of Taiyuan Prefecture.

Li Tianhe and the others were squatting in the dry cesspool, rainwater was continuously flowing down from the gaps in the bluestone slabs above their heads, and it didn't take long for water to appear in the cesspool.

As the saying goes, one autumn rain and one cold, when the rain starts to fall, the cold also gradually rises.

The air was full of chill, and Wu Chen, who was squatting in the latrine, couldn't help but sneezed.

"My lord, why are we going?" A soldier wrapped his clothes tightly, but even so, he still couldn't stop the chill.

Li Tianhe said: "Let's leave after midnight, now let's wait a little longer."

The rain outside was getting heavier, and the people in the cesspit were also quietly waiting for the late night to come.

The Xuanzhen soldiers and horses in the city had already set up their camps. According to Zhao Wen's order, they set up their camps near the four city gates.

Because of the rain, there was no brazier raised in the camp.

The heavy rain kept falling, and soldiers in raincoats patrolled the camp quietly. Apart from these patrolling soldiers, there was almost no sound in the camp.

At this time, a team of about 100 people came out of the camp at the east gate.

The team walked out of the camp with guns on their backs and black raincoats.

These raincoats were found by Zhao Wen from the warehouse, and they had been distributed to the army for a long time.

After the 100-member team walked out of the camp, it was divided into five teams of 20 people each.

They walked in different directions in front of the camp and began to patrol the city.

Except for this city gate, the other three city gates also sent patrol teams.

It has not been long since Taiyuan Mansion was captured, and the security in the city will be more or less affected.

In order to better maintain the stability of Taiyuan Mansion, Zhao Wen had to send a patrol team at night.

Soldiers in raincoats walked through the streets expressionlessly.

Those green-skinned hooligans in the city who wanted to take advantage of the rainy night to rob them had no choice but to sneak back home after seeing these soldiers.

The rain was still falling, and these patrolling soldiers patrolled the streets with stagnant water without changing their expressions.

Li Tianhe and the others were squatting in the cesspool, and just as they were about to lift the bluestone slab above their heads out, they suddenly heard the sound of orderly footsteps.

The sound of footsteps mixed with the sound of rain, although it didn't sound very obvious, they heard it in an instant because of their nervousness.

"Don't go out in a hurry, wait until these people have left before going out."

Li Tianhe lowered his voice and whispered to the people next to him.

The patrolling soldiers walked slowly over the bluestone slabs above their heads, and the bluestone slabs vibrated slightly.

When the footsteps became smaller and smaller and finally disappeared, Li Tianhe took a deep breath and said to the people in the cesspool: "It's now, push the bluestone slab away, let's go!"
