Chapter 188 Suddenly I miss her

Chu Zheng was stunned and immediately looked in the sound and saw that the fire was rising from the south. That location... was the southern granary of Liangdu!

Damn it! The granary is on fire?

Chu Zheng immediately changed his face, and he didn't care about Guo Xiang's affairs anymore. He used his light skills and turned into a phantom, running towards the place where the fire light rose into the sky.

...

Half an hour later, Chu Zheng's face turned gloomy. He squatted outside the granary with embers and slowly stroked the blood-covered treasurer's eyes, which had been angrily open.

The treasurer guarding the granary was once a member of his guard team. He was only twenty-two years old this year. He had just been transferred to serve as a grain guard for only two days. Unexpectedly, he was cut in by a master who sneaked in and set fire for more than ten times and died in a desperate battle!

There are nearly fifty bodies that have been moved across the country, and some have even been burned to charcoal.

The soldiers around held their breath and didn't even dare to penetrate the atmosphere, because the cold air that came out of Chu Shuai made them shudder.

The southern granary in Liangdu was actually sneaked into the fire. If it weren't for the timely discovery, Chu Shuai quickly rushed to the scene to command the extinguishing of the fire, fearing that the granary that stored one-quarter of Liangdu's grain would be destroyed.

But now there are also many losses. The fire caused nearly one-fifth of the food in the southern granary was burned and dozens of soldiers were killed.

Chu Zheng looked at the bodies of all the fallen soldiers and clenched his fists subconsciously.

He found that he had really changed recently. He was dismissed with the casualties of just a few dozen people in the past. When he killed a certain evil sect for revenge, the people who fell to him were enough to dye the entire river red.

But at this moment, he looked at the young faces and felt an indescribable anger, which made his chest almost explode.

"Ship Chu, the torture has been found." Chen Jiafeng hurriedly approached and reported carefully.

Chu Zheng didn't look back and asked, "Who is instructing him behind the scenes?"

There were three people who sneaked into the fire, all of whom were good at martial arts evaluation, at least 400 points. They probably didn't expect that the southern granary had set up a dark whistle. As soon as they avoided the patrol soldiers, they plotted against the whistle, but were found to blew a warning whistle, which caused them to ignite a warehouse and were surrounded by the treasurer who rushed over with more than 200 people.

These three masters were extremely cruel. After killing dozens of soldiers, they were about to break through and flee, but Chu Zheng, who was driven to the scene, was caught by Chu Zheng, and none of them could be left.

Chu Zheng was in a hurry to put out the fire, but he just let them lose their martial arts point and fainted. He handed them over to Chen Jiafeng who arrived later for interrogation. He led the soldiers who arrived and the nearby people to put out the fire together.

Fortunately, the civilians who had previously eliminated the road had piled all the snow on the roadside, which was convenient for extinguishing the fire. In the end, most of the warehouses on the outermost side were burned down, and the rest of the warehouses on the inside were not affected.

At this time, Chen Jiafeng heard Chu Zheng ask about the person behind the scenes, looked around and hesitated to approach Chu Zheng's ear and whispered: "Ding Family."

Ding family? Chu Zheng naturally knew that this wealthy family who had been entrenched in Liangdu for many years was the Ding family itself, the largest grain merchant and local tyrant in Liangdu, and the leader of the gentry in Liangdu. In the past, Peng Liang had to give in when facing the Ding family. After Kou Zhong occupied Liangdu, in order to calm the people's hearts as soon as possible, he also comforted the Ding family.

Previously, Chu Zheng ordered the confiscation of property from the wealthy family. It was the Ding family who took the lead in causing trouble and gathered a large number of rogues and hooligans to speak everywhere, saying that if Chu Shuai really dared to "do things against the contrary", he would give him a good look.

Chu Zheng is naturally not afraid of offending the Ding family, but in order to rescue as many victims as possible, Chu Zheng ignores such a role for the time being and just enforces the confiscation of the government order.

The Ding family was furious, and then Chu Zheng encountered two assassinations, and even the porridge house was often messed up with scoundrels.

Even grain merchants of all sizes and large and small in Liangdu refused to sell grain to the young commander army in the past two days. If it weren't for the fact that a large amount of grain was seized from Xu Yuanlang, Chu Zheng's operation to rescue the snow disaster victims would have had a headache about the food shortage first.

This time, the incident of sending a master to secretly set fire to the young marshal's army's granary was naturally to force Chu Zheng to bow his head.

Chu Zheng understood the whole story in the blink of an eye, and his eyes were full of murderous intent.

Go to the damn, this Ding family is looking for death!

Originally, Chu Zheng was not the one who was willing to suffer losses. The revenge he had been assassinated twice had not been avenged yet. Now he has a new hatred, so how can he suppress his anger?

"General Chen, immediately order a thousand troops and follow me to search the Ding family. Those who resist will be killed without any hesitation!"

The deep murderous aura scared Chen Jiafeng, and he hurriedly advised in a low voice: "Chu Shuaishen, the Ding family is very powerful in Liangdu, and the gentry only has his horse heads to pay attention. Once the Ding family is searched, the other major families will be afraid of panic. Liangdu has just suffered a snow disaster, and it will be in chaos at this time..."

Chu Zheng sneered: "The Ding family is bad rules first. If our young marshal still holds up this tone today, should we stay in Liangdu in the future? Summon people immediately, and I will bear all the consequences!"

Chen Jiafeng did not dare to disobey his orders and quickly assembled a thousand elite troops to follow Chu Zheng to search the Ding family.

The Ding family has a tall wall and hundreds of knights, so its power cannot be small.

But Chu Zheng didn't care about this at all. He kicked the whole thick iron-packed door down and rushed in with dozens of the best martial arts masters. Hundreds of Dings who were on guard in front of his iron-blooded methods collapsed in an instant. Chu Zheng captured the head of the Ding family and several involved in the matter in the meeting hall. The trembling head of the wealthy family was captured in one go. Chen Jiafeng did not dare to neglect, so he had to capture all the elderly Ding family members and take them back to prison. He also found an astonishing amount of gold, silver and nearly ten thousand stones of food in the Ding family cellar.

Immediately under Chu Zheng's forced order, the Young Marshal's Army seized several wealthy merchants involved in the matter and lost all their wealth.

When it was dawn, rows of people were filled with the city where blood had just been washed away.

Just as the whole city was trembling with turmoil, Chu Zheng ordered the distribution of most of the food that was found to be sent to every household in Liangdu and every disaster victim.

As the news spread, all the people at the bottom of the city applauded happily and expressed strong support for Chu Shuai's actions to suppress the powerful and evil gentry that harmed the people.

The other wealthy businessmen and wealthy families were so scared that they were no longer ashamed. Only then did they truly realize that it would be okay to provoke anyone in such a chaotic era, and they must not provoke the commander with a strong soldier.

After meeting the heads of various families with pale faces in the lobby of the city lord's mansion, they accepted nearly half of their wealth to help the victims, Chu Zheng comforted him gently, which put an end to the matter.

Then he threw all the troubles to Chen Jiafeng, who was suffering from grievances. Chu Zheng stretched his body, and then he felt hungry and tired.

It was noon outside in winter. Even though his internal strength was amazing, he couldn't hide his tiredness without closing his eyes for a few days, let alone that he hadn't finished his supper last night.
