Always guard the military warehouse.
When a group of people were shedding tears, a royal guard suddenly ran out from the woods in the distance.
He was out of breath, and before he arrived, he shouted loudly: "General, General! I just saw the thief running towards Sinan County, but his martial arts were so strong that I couldn't catch up with him. General, please send someone to look for him!"
Wang Shouyi's eyes widened, his fists clenched, his nails digging deep into his flesh, "Sinan?!"
Countless thoughts flashed through my mind in an instant.
Since Sinan County was so generous in providing disaster relief to the people, the military treasury must be empty and not enough to survive the winter. Could it be that they stole the food and gold in the military treasury?
This move kills two birds with one stone and can also sow discord between him and the soldiers in the barracks!
Yes, it must be them!
In such a vast Lingnan, there is no one with better martial arts skills than Zhou Shijin!
Last time he was able to defeat thousands of soldiers by himself, so this time he can certainly steal food and supplies right under the noses of so many elite soldiers!
"General, I know what you are thinking. And your guy is also in Sinan..."
The military advisor's tone was tense.
Wang Shouyi's eyes widened, a chill instantly filled his whole body, and his hair stood on end.
"Soldiers of the Changshou Army, listen up! Our military treasury was stolen by the Sinan people! Go and ask them for an explanation!"
When the sun set in the west, Wang Shouyi arrived at the gate of Sinan County with several thousand elite soldiers in a menacing manner.
The soldier guarding the city gate raised his long sword and asked in a cold voice: "General Wang, what are you doing in Sinan County?"
Wang Shouyi's face was gloomy, and he shouted: "The Changshou military warehouse was robbed. I tracked them all the way here and saw with my own eyes that the thieves entered your Sinan County. Why don't you open the city gate quickly and let this general go in to search!"
The theft of the military treasury was a big deal, so the two soldiers turned around hurriedly and wanted to report it.
At the dumpling stall not far away, Xie Ling and Fengjian Qingli had already noticed the situation here.
Fengjian Qingli endured the heat and finished the last dumpling while breathing heavily. She slapped a few copper coins on the table, then stood up and caught up with Xie Ling.
The street was bustling with people, and the two soldiers happened to meet Xie Ling, who was dressed in blue.
Xie Ling stopped the two of them and said, "I'll go take a look. There's no need to report to the county magistrate. You guys go back to guard."
Xie Ling now enjoys a very high prestige in the Sinan military camp. Everyone knows that there is a Xie Zhubo who helps them build the military camp and improve the food.
Two soldiers followed Xie Ling and walked towards the city gate.
Wang Shouyi was getting impatient and his thick brows were tightly furrowed.
After seeing Xie Ling, a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"In ancient times, hens crowed at dawn. Today, a woman is in charge of such a large county. Is your County Magistrate Zhou paralyzed in bed and unable to get up? You actually sent a delicate woman here."
Sun Qiuhan, who was standing behind Wang Shouyi, frowned slightly.
He originally had some opinions about Xie Ling, wondering how a woman could reach that position.
But as they got along later, he discovered that Xie Ling was a girl with real abilities.
Sun Qiuhan reminded him, "General, we are here to catch the thieves, don't waste your breath."
Xie Ling glanced at Sun Qiuhan gently.
Then he said, "I heard that Chang Shou's military warehouse was robbed? General, are you sure you saw the thieves running to Sinan County with your own eyes?"
"My personal guards saw it. The thief was dressed in black, tall, and ran straight to the south."
Xie Ling raised her eyebrows: "Open the city gates, and send another 500 soldiers to help General Wang catch the thieves. Don't let any suspicious people go."
Seeing Xie Ling being so straightforward, Wang Shouyi's inner thoughts deepened.
He sneered.
I thought that Sinan’s people must have hidden all the things, otherwise how could they be so calm?
When he goes in, Sinan will definitely be caught off guard!
Today, I must teach them a lesson!
