The capital, the hall of the Prime Minister’s Mansion.

Cheng Yinghao sat down in the hall. Although he tried his best to remain calm, he could not hide his anxiety and worries on his face.

His upper head sat with the beard of the ancient road, who is currently one of the great marshals of the military headquarters, and the lower head was Cheng Ming, a brother of the same clan. The sixty-year-old man sitting upright in the main seat was the Lord Min Zhitang, the prime minister of the dynasty. This old beard was slightly white, but he was energetic, quick, and did not look old at all.

"Prime Minister, Captain Chen is asking for a meeting." At this time, a servant came forward to report.

Min Zhitang raised his eyebrows and said, "Please hurry up."

"yes."

A moment later, the servant brought a strong man in his forties. This man was the number one arrester of the world-famous Han Dynasty, and the current chief of the Ministry of Justice.

Chen Youkun appeared here, and he knew what it was for without asking. As expected, Cheng Yinghao was too concerned and asked first: "Captain Chen, what is the result of your investigation on the scene?"

Chen Youkun is very familiar with this rookie whom the Cheng family is fully pursuing. He knows more that the people present are close to each other and dare not neglect them. He quickly bowed and said, "General Cheng, the official arrived at the scene and asked the residents nearby. He found several suspicions, so he suspected that there was something strange about the case."

Whether it was the scheming Gu Dao beard, or the anxious Cheng Yinghao, or even Min Zhitang, who had always been as stable as Mount Tai, was attracted by his words. Cheng Ming asked quickly: "What's the suspicious thing?"

"Cough..." Min Zhitang coughed and said, "Captain Chen, have something to say slowly. Please sit down and see the tea."

Cheng Yinghao and Cheng Ming realized that they were too impatient and even forgot the most basic hospitality ceremony. They all turned red. Fortunately, everyone knew their mood at the moment, so no one blamed them.

"Thank you, Prime Minister." Chen Youkun sat down in the guest seat, politely drank the fragrant tea served by the lower man, and continued, "The official asked the nearby residents and found that from the sound of shouting and killing, it only took half a cup of tea to capture all Mr. Cheng and his group in such a short time. It can be seen that the enemy's strength is really terrifying."

Min Zhitang and others nodded in agreement. With Cheng Jiahui, a first-class expert, he was caught silently, he was captured. Then the enemy's strength can only be described as the word terror.

"It's just that during the investigation, the officials found several traces of crossbow arrows. This model was a weapon in our Han army. But for some reason, it fell into the hands of the Caesars." Chen Youkun saw that everyone agreed with his point of view, and then he was greatly inspired.

"This is not surprising. It is normal for the Caesars to fight us for many years, and it is normal for them to obtain some spoils." Cheng Ming explained.

"Yes, what sir said." Chen Youkun said that, but he didn't agree. Although these crossbow arrows had been seized by the Caesars, this was a major capital, and travelers and travelers had to conduct strict inspections. If there was no internal response, how did the Caesars transport these sharp weapons into the city without being discovered? But since Cheng Ming made the conclusion, his inference could not be directly stated. He was just a small captain, so how could he dare to argue with the first popular person in front of the marshal of the dynasty.

But there were some things that really had to be said. He thought about it for a while and said tactfully: "It's just that according to the observation of the Xiaguan, there were dozens of arrow marks left on the scene. If we inferred based on the time when the opponent committed the crime, they only had one chance to launch, which means that the enemy used dozens of crossbows at one time."

After hearing this, everyone was moved. Gu Dao beard slapped the table and cursed: "Are these damn city guards blind? They should all be beheaded."

If only one or two crossbows were smuggled into the city without being discovered, then it would be understandable. But if the Caesars transported dozens of crossbows into the capital from under their noses, the city guards would not escape the blame. However, how did they know that Jiang Kongming created the Zhuge divine crossbow in advance in the future. This unique weapon that could emit multiple arrow branches at a time is unknown, so it is inevitable that the estimation mistake will be made.

"The officials thought that even if the Caesars could smuggle these crossbows into the city without knowing it, it would be impossible to send them away in one night because of the tight time. Therefore, if the Caesars wanted to request a grand inspection of the whole city, even if they destroyed them, they would be able to find some clues."

"Well said, I will come to the palace to meet the saint and ask for the city's general inspection." Min Zhitang nodded and praised.

"Yes, Prime Minister sees it clearly." Chen Youkun flattered, then hesitated and stopped.

All the people here are extremely smart. When you see him like this, you will know that he is a little indescribable. Min Zhitang looked at Gu Daoyan and said, "Captain Chen, just say whatever you have."

"Yes." Chen Youkun gritted his teeth and said, "The officials were just worried that the Caesars who ambushed Master Cheng, so even if we dig three feet into the capital, we would not be able to find anything."

Cheng Yinghao asked in surprise: "How do you say this?"

Chen Youkun clasped his fists again and said, "The general knew that, first, how could the Caesars have such ability to smuggle so many banished weapons into the city. Second, this place is the capital of the Han Dynasty, and the guards are tightly guarded. They actually took all the guards away, so where did these people hide? There is also the most important point. Since the Caesars were deliberately stolen into the capital, they would have to do a big deal. How could they expose their whereabouts to attack Mr. Cheng? Mr. Cheng was far south and had nothing to do with the Caesars, let alone any grudges. The officials really couldn't figure out what their intention was to take hostages."

Everyone looked at each other after hearing this, and couldn't speak for a while. As the core elements of the Cheng family, they naturally knew that Cheng Yingjie was not only related to the Caesars, but also had close relationships, but they could not say these words to Chen Youkun in any case.

"Not to mention this matter for now. Captain Chen, go back and mobilize the yamen constable to prepare for the grand inspection. If there is insufficient manpower, I will ask the city guards to help you." Gu Daoren said something and broke the dull situation.

"Yes, the official is leaving." Chen Youkun bowed and left quickly. While walking, he touched his head a cold sweat.

Chen Youkun was able to be the chief constable of the country, and Chen Youkun had an unparalleled ability to observe the words and expressions. He naturally saw the unnatural expressions of everyone. He immediately knew that his inference had made a huge mistake. This Cheng Yingjie, Young Master Cheng must have an unspeakable relationship with the Caesars.

When the Han army confronted the Caesars on the Western Front, Cheng Yingjie had private contact with the Caesars, and it was obviously fully supported by the Cheng family. The articles in this are mysterious, but this is obviously beyond his ability. It is of great importance and he will never be able to touch it, otherwise he will be afraid that his family and life will be lost.

Seeing Chen Youkun leave, Gu Daoyan sighed and said, "I didn't expect the Caesars' revenge was so fast. This time I was really miscalculated."

Cheng Ming clenched his fists and said, "It's all because of Xu Haifeng. I don't know where he came out. If he hadn't captured Lin'an City, we would have accomplished it long ago. As long as that foolish monarch is captured and the world is in chaos, our Cheng family can take advantage of the situation in the south and then seize the world."

Min Zhitang waved his hand and said, "Since things have happened, please don't mention them again. Be careful about everything."

Cheng Ming immediately bowed his head and was taught: "Yes, my nephew obeys the order."

"Uncle Gu, who is Xu Haifeng? Is his Black Flag Army really that powerful?" Cheng Yinghao had heard of the Black Flag Army's name for a long time, but after countless people's jealousy, it was exaggerated to the point that it was unbelievable, so he had doubts in his heart, and only then did he really ask.

Gu Daoran nodded helplessly and said, "Promoting Xu Haifeng may be the biggest mistake I have done in my life. Originally, I thought he was a talent and wanted to take it as my subordinate, but unexpectedly he was close to the boy of the Fang family. The two of them had even become sworn brothers, which made me regret it."

Cheng Yinghao believed 70% of the time when he heard Gu Daoran speak so seriously, but he still had some doubts: "So, the combat effectiveness of the Black Flag Army is really as powerful as the legendary one. Even the five armies of our great Han are not their enemies?"

Gu Daoyan looked up at the roof, as if muttering to himself: "Xu Haifeng didn't see anything strange about this, but the method of training has its own unique secrets. The soldiers he trained were the real Tiger Ben army. His military discipline was strict, and his soldiers were not afraid of death. There were also two generals Qin Yong and Zhebe who were not comparable to human power to fight against the five legions. As long as their number reached one-tenth of the five legions, it would be enough to compete with the five legions. If the nephew fights him in the future, I will have a good advice to persuade him."

Cheng Yinghao's eyes narrowed and he asked quickly: "What teachings does Uncle Gu have? My nephew must keep them in mind."

Gu Daoyan smiled bitterly and said, "I only give you four words: 'retreat and leave'."

"Retreat?" Cheng Yinghao exclaimed.

"Yes, in today's world, there is absolutely no unit that can compete with the Black Flag Army head-on. The place where they can defeat them is definitely not on the battlefield." Gu Daorang said seriously.

"It's a pity that I can't use it for my Cheng family. What a pity..." Cheng Yinghao never expected that Gu Daoyan would admire the Black Flag Army so much. Thinking that if the Cheng family wanted to achieve hegemony, they would be afraid that they would fight him sooner or later, a chill would inevitably surge in his heart.

"Since that's the case, it must be removed to avoid leaving any future troubles." Min Zhitang said firmly: "It is not convenient for us to do this by ourselves. But I remember that Fang Lingtian has been recommending Xu Haifeng as the special envoy to the Xiongnu in front of the Holy Divine. So we will follow the flow and sell him his face."

"Brother Min means..." Gu Daoren is also an old spirit. When he heard this, he understood the meaning and nodded, "Yes, killing people with a knife is indeed a good way."

"It's just that this time you must plan carefully and let him be buried in the Huns no matter what." Min Zhitang said with a gloomy face.

"That's right, my nephew is writing a book to my father. If he really has no choice, even if he asks his ancestors to take action, he will have to make a contribution in one battle." Cheng Yinghao said fiercely.
