If these soldiers had some doubts before, at this moment they were completely convinced that the people in the store were the Liao spies they wanted to capture, which made them rush forward even faster. The two men in the lead quickly slashed with their swords, and flew directly onto the table and abacus in front of them. While knocking them down, their pace did not slow down at all, and they pounced on them like tigers hunting prey.

At this time, Guan Laoshi was no longer as honest and dull as he had been in the past. As he stepped back quickly, he raised his hand again, a cold light suddenly appeared, and he fired a sleeve arrow at the soldier closest to him, forcing the man to just Being able to stop hastily and raise his sword to block also allowed his body to sink into the portal behind.

He was overjoyed when he saw this, because they had already fully grasped the environment here when they decided to settle here. Behind this shop is a remote alley, and as long as you climb over a low wall on the side of the alley, you will find a busy street behind it. As long as he is given a moment's chance, he can blend into the crowd and escape. He knew very well the style of those Song officers and soldiers. They would never dare to act recklessly in the crowd and hurt innocent people.

However, the shopkeeper's movements were half a beat too slow after all, and he had no arrows in his sleeve. He only had time to pull out a knife from underneath the counter when he climbed out of the counter to fight. As a result, he was quickly surrounded by several soldiers from both sides and could not escape again. , we can only grit our teeth and fight.

He originally thought that with his martial arts skills, he could quickly fight his way out even if he was surrounded by people, but it turned out that the offensive of these officers and soldiers was much more violent than he imagined, and the cooperation between the few people was excellent. There were almost no openings left, allowing him to fend off several moves with difficulty, then he was stabbed in the shoulder and fell to the other side with a groan. At this time, several soldiers who were watching quickly stepped forward, and in a flash of cold light, he was completely restrained.

What made him even more nervous was that it was only then that he suddenly discovered that the people in the store had not been imprisoned at all and had no rush to escape. They looked like they were completely under control. This made him quickly understand that there might be someone guarding the back of the store. If Guan Laoshi went out, he would be trapped in a trap!

In fact, just as he feared, Guan Laoshi quickly backed out of the back door. Before he could even turn around and climb over the wall, several roars came from the side and behind. When he raised his knife to fight, two cold The steel knife was already placed on his neck, and another knife was attached to his waist. If they made any more movements, they would kill him in an instant.

Since Sun Tu had determined his target and was determined to capture them all, how could he leave any loopholes? Therefore, before ordering people to attack the store head-on to capture the people, a team of people had been sent to ambush behind the hotel, and sure enough, Guan Laoshi was captured alive.

It wasn't until he saw him being pushed back into the store that Sun Tu walked into the hotel with a smile. At the same time, several people rushed towards the tofu shop not far away, and immediately controlled all the waiters inside. On the street behind him, pedestrians had already retreated to both sides in shock, leaving a large space. Many people looked at this side with curious and frightened eyes, not yet understanding what was going on in this small hotel. What kind of change has happened? It's time to use swords and guns.

Regarding the performance of these people under his command, Sun

Still satisfied with the journey. In fact, if he had done it himself, today's arrest operation would have been smoother, and even Guan Laoshi wouldn't have been able to retreat to the back door. However, his current identity is different from before, and naturally he cannot do everything by himself, especially such trivial matters as arresting people, which will test the abilities of his brothers even more. Today, they turned in an unsatisfactory performance.

Of course, this was only for Sun Tu. For Di Yingyang, who was also watching all this from outside, the performance of these soldiers was so impressive that he still felt a little dazed until now. If it weren't for the wrong occasion, He almost clapped his hands and cheered. But even so, he who came in after Sun Tu still praised him: "Sanlang, you are really good at training your troops. This is the real elite soldier who has fought a hundred battles."

"It's just a little trick, it doesn't count." Sun Tu responded calmly, and then he turned his attention to the two gray-faced guys: "You guys are really easy for me to find. Your identities must be I don’t need to ask any more questions, I wonder if you are coming from Shangjing or Beijing?”

Just this sentence made the two of them tremble again, and the shopkeeper even subconsciously shouted: "You..." Apparently he was surprised that Sun Tu had completely revealed their origins in one go. And just this moment completely confirmed their identity as Liao spies.

In fact, although confessions had been asked before, Sun Tu still had some suspicions. Maybe these people were Liao spies disguised by Xia Guoxin. After all, in terms of methods in this area, Xixia was much stronger than Liao. He still remembered the incident in Youzhou City that day. But now, there is no longer any doubt, because people's subconscious reactions are the most real.

This made Sun Tu raise the corner of his mouth and reveal a smile: "You do have some skills and ideas, but you actually spent several years to obtain the secrets of my Song Dynasty bow and crossbow. Unfortunately, in the end, you are still one step behind. Now. Can you tell me who ordered you to come here?"

Guan Laoshi kept silent, obviously showing off his attitude, and could not be threatened by Sun Tu. But the shopkeeper suddenly said: "Since you know our identities, do you think we will easily tell you anything?"

"Yes, you really won't tell me any information. After all, your status is not too high, and what you know is even more limited." Sun Tu didn't show any anger, shook his head slightly, and then suddenly turned around, Suddenly he reached out and dragged the young man who had been cowering in the corner with an innocent face in front of him: "It seems that I can only ask him directly!"

This time, Guan Laoshi and the other two were even more shocked. They seemed to be struggling, but were quickly held down by the soldiers on both sides. And the guy screamed: "General, have mercy on me, I don't know anything..."

Even Di Yingyang looked at Sun Tu's sudden move with some surprise. How could he conclude that this humble guy was the leader of these spies? Sun Tu glanced at the other party and said with a smile: "You thought you were hiding perfectly enough, so even if you were attacked by me, you didn't panic like them and tried to escape. But you didn't know that all the exchanges you just had in the store had been I can see it in my eyes. The way they look at you doesn't look like your subordinates at all.

The meaning of calculation. "

As he spoke, Sun Tu raised his detained right hand in front of his eyes, and then opened his palm with force: "Your words can deceive people, but the calluses on the tiger's mouth cannot deceive people. This is the result of many years of holding it." Knives, guns and other weapons must have been ground out. There is also the ring mark on the thumb that has faded but can still be seen. The traces left by wearing the bow-drawing ring for many years will not completely disappear in a year or two. Dare I ask, how could you, a hotel clerk, leave these marks on your body?"

The words he said made everyone present moved. The guy's face changed several times, and finally he smiled bitterly: "I didn't expect that I have so many flaws in my body. I was trying to get away with it before... That's all. In that case, I'll let you kill me. But I, a Khitan tribesman, There are only warriors who die in battle, and no cowards who surrender and betray their country!"

"Yes, you can kill if you want. No need to say more." Guan Laoshi also spoke. Only the shopkeeper remained silent at this time. Sun Tu quickly saw some fear in his eyes.

"Really? Let's wait and see." Sun Tu said, waving his hand: "Seal these two shops and bring everyone back to the Imperial City Department for detailed questioning!" He believed that except for them in Tokyo, , there must be other details, and the fortresses in Guancheng in the north may also have people arranged by them. You must know that they have transported a lot of supplies to the north in the past few years. Without the cooperation of people within the Song Dynasty army, It's impossible not to get the slightest bit of news out.

As long as you give him some time, Sun Tu is confident that he can always pry open the mouths of a few people and dig out some key information.

At this moment, there was another commotion outside, and then another group of officers and soldiers hurried over. It was the soldiers and horses patrolling the city who finally arrived belatedly after learning of the changes here.

After Sun Tu and others revealed their identities and what they had done, the leading general said in surprise: "There is such a thing, so these spies..."

"Since the man was captured by our Tiger Army, we will naturally handle it." Sun Tu immediately saw the other party's intention. He wanted to share some of the credit. But he would not sell such a favor to the other party, so he immediately gave a stiff answer.

Then, without waiting for any reaction from the other party, he ordered the people to leave. Everything went smoothly these two days. At least one of my errands was successfully solved. Even if I couldn't dig out more valuable information from these details, it was enough to give an explanation to the court. This made him finally feel relieved. Ever since he started investigating the master's case, he had always been one step ahead. Being suppressed without the opportunity to stand up was really frustrating. Surrendered.

But Sun Tu, who was leading the people back confidently, did not realize that he had been stared at by someone in a restaurant in front of him.

"Boss, do you want to do it now?"

"Is there any problem? In the past, he always had no less than fifty people guarding him, but now there are only more than thirty people, and they are also focusing on these prisoners. It is the best place for us to kill him. Opportunity." A cold voice filled with hatred suddenly spoke up: "Do it!"
