Chapter 191: Empty, the Xiang family captures the city

~5 min read 866 words

After all, the village is mainly for farming, if the whole village doesn't farm.

Then the existence of this village would cause countless people to imagine.

"The farmers inside were either slaughtered by the Xiang family, and they occupied this place."

"Or they were originally villages built by the remnants of the six states."

"Only by investigating can we know the real situation."

Ying Ying Zi Ye's face was somewhat ugly.

If the Xiang family really slaughtered the village to occupy this place, then it was truly too brutal.

Wang Li heard that the people in the village might have been slaughtered, very indignant, and ordered people to sneak in to check the situation.

Wanting to know how many Xiang family private soldiers were in the village.

Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!

Soon the soldiers sent to spy on the news rushed back.

"Report~~!"

"Ninth Prince, the village ahead is empty, there is no one!"

Ying Ying Zi Ye frowned, no one?

Where did everyone go?

"What did you say?"

"The village ahead is empty?"

Wang Li thought he had tinnitus and looked at the soldier with disbelief.

The soldier said it again.

"How could there be no one?"

Wang Li looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye, seeing him frown and not speak.

Wang Li gave the instruction.

"The whole army advances!"

"Yes!"

The soldier retreated and passed the instruction.

Then I saw thousands of people slowly advancing toward the village.

"Did they dig a secret passage here too?"

"Is this a group of rats specializing in digging holes?"

Wang Li couldn't understand why everyone disappeared.

"They should have avoided the eyes and ears and fled last night."

"Digging holes is impossible, where can digging holes lead to here."

Ying Ying Zi Ye shook his head, this is not in the city, is it necessary to dig holes.

"If there is no one here, then will they all be on Yin Tong's side?"

Wang Li thought of Yin Tong's side, and didn't know what the situation was there.

If the Xiang family members were all there, it would probably be a fierce battle.

"How does your brain think about things?"

Ying Ying Zi Ye rolled his eyes at Wang Li.

This guy is sometimes very smart, and sometimes his ideas are somewhat naive.

"It is rumored that Xiang Yu has an uncle named Xiang Liang, who is the current power holder of the Xiang family."

"If he learned about what happened last night, it's impossible to withdraw troops here, and not withdraw troops in another place."

"But this should be easy to find out, after all, so many people left together, it's impossible not to leave traces."

Ying Ying Zi Ye sighed, only blaming them for getting the news too late last night.

Otherwise, they could have brought troops here in advance to encircle and suppress.

Now, they can only continue to find where they are hiding.

Fortunately, this is not a difficult thing, it should be easy to find out.

"Makes sense!"

"I will arrange manpower to check."

"Even if I turn Kuaiji Commandery upside down, I must turn these rats out!"

Wang Li nodded, it's impossible for so many people to disappear without a trace.

Wang Li followed the soldiers into the village.

Sure enough, there was no one, and every house was searched.

Looking at the messy appearance in the house, the people here should have left last night.

Some things were not packed in time and they left, proving that they left in a hurry at that time.

Wang Li was very disappointed, originally thinking that he could catch a few people to ask about the situation.

Who knew there wasn't even a ghost shadow.

This made him feel like punching cotton, with nowhere to exert force.

Angry, he punched the wooden door of the house.

The entire wooden door was punched away by Wang Li.

"Report~~!"

At this time, a cavalryman rushed in from outside the village.

After stopping the horse, he jumped down immediately and rushed to Wang Li.

"General Wang, Governor Yin Tong sent news."

The soldier said, handing over a bamboo tube.

"Oh, what's the situation on Yin Tong's side?"

Wang Li took the bamboo tube and asked about the situation there.

"The Governor also came up empty."

The soldier answered truthfully.

"Sure enough."

Wang Li waved his hand in disappointment.

The soldier bowed and left.

Wang Li opened the bamboo tube and took out the Xuan paper inside.

The Xuan paper business had been booming under Ba Qing.

The business was extremely hot, and many places in Great Qin had started using Xuan paper.

Therefore, what was taken out of the bamboo tube this time was no longer bamboo slips.

When Wang Li saw the content on the Xuan paper clearly, his face changed drastically!

There was only a simple sentence on the Xuan paper.

The Xiang family started a rebellion and had captured a city—Sucheng!

Sucheng is a small city dozens of miles away from the Kuaiji Commandery capital.

He didn't know how many residents lived inside.

He just knew there was such a city. ===== CHAPTER 193 =====
