Chapter 78 Search the whole city

Han Zhijie gave an order, and the Jingjian Guards hiding in the dark immediately took action and surrounded Luo Mansion as quickly as possible.

"action!"

At the main entrance of Luo Mansion, Han Zhijie waved his right hand, and Jing Jianwei immediately broke through the door and entered.

"Oh!"

The loud noise alerted all the servants and maids of Luo Mansion. They all walked out of their rooms and wanted to find out what happened in the mansion, but they were caught by Jing Jianwei who came towards them.

Han Zhijie led a team of Jingjian guards directly to the study, kicked open the door, and shouted loudly: "Search for me and bring all useful things back to the Jingjian Department."

"Yes, my lord!"

Jingjianwei immediately started searching, rummaging through the cabinets without missing any corner, and even checked the books on the bookshelves one by one.

"Sir, a secret passage was discovered."

Han Zhijie walked over quickly and saw a dark hole exposed in the corner behind the bookshelf.

"Sure enough, there is a secret passage. You guys will go in with me, and the others will continue searching. Don't miss any useful clues."

"Yes, my lord!"

Han Zhijie took the lead, holding a torch in his left hand and a long knife in his right hand, and walked in carefully. The entrance to the secret passage was narrow and could only allow one person to pass through. The entrance to the secret passage became wider and wider as he went down the steps.

After a while, Han Zhijie came to the bottom of the secret passage. This was a secret passage that had been used for many years. There were still lit candles on the walls on both sides of the secret passage.

How did Luo Hong know that he was exposed?

There must be an early warning device in this secret passage. It seems that I accidentally triggered the device when I entered the study, which alerted Luo Hong.

"You guys, search carefully for me. Don't let go of any clues. If you find anything, report it immediately."

"Yes, my lord!"

Han Zhijie led several mirror guards along the secret passage and began to search carefully...

"Sir, my subordinate found a bell."

Han Zhijie walked over and took a look. He saw a small copper bell hanging on a thin wire just below the candlestick on the wall. He gently moved the thin wire with his hand, and the copper bell immediately made a clear ringing sound.

Han Zhijie immediately understood that it was through this little copper bell that Luo Hong learned that his identity had been exposed.

"Continue to search."

"Yes, my lord!"

Han Zhijie led several mirror guards and continued to search along the secret passage...

"Sir, we have reached the end of the secret passage. In addition, my subordinates also discovered the steps leading to the ground."

Han Zhijie stepped forward to take a look, then nodded, "Come up with me and have a look."

"Yes, my lord!"

Han Zhijie took the lead to walk up the steps, and soon came to a ruined temple that had been abandoned for a long time.

"Do any of you know where this place is?"

"Sir, if this subordinate is not mistaken, this should be the abandoned Three Immortals Temple in the west of Fengyang City."

"You guys just stay here and I'll go back to the Mirror Appraisal Department and report to Zhang Jian right away."

"Yes, my lord!"

Han Zhijie rushed to the Mirror Appraisal Department as quickly as possible and described the incident to Liu Song in detail.

"Commander Han, immediately gather all the Jingjian guards to search overnight. We must catch Luo Hong before dawn."

"Yes, palm sword!"

That night, all the Jingjian Guards were dispatched, and together with the Royal Forest Army and Fengyang Prefecture officials, they conducted door-to-door searches on every street and square in Fengyang City overnight.

Time passed little by little, and it was almost dawn. The search in Fengyang City was almost complete, but Luo Hong was still not found. Han Zhijie became anxious and kept walking back and forth.

"Brother Han, don't worry. Luo Hong is a senior spy from another country. This kind of large-scale search will probably have no effect on him. It's normal that he can't be found." Zhang Jian reached out and patted Han Zhijie on the shoulder.

"Hey……"

"This is all my fault. If I had been more cautious and not entered the study rashly, Luo Hong might have confessed by now." Han Zhijie said.

"Brother Han, don't blame yourself. This is not your fault. In that situation, anyone would have gone into the house to find out. Who would have thought that Luo Hong would even set up an early warning agency."

"Luo Hong, a secret agent, has reached the high position of a member of the civil service. It seems that his identity must be very important. He is definitely an important figure in the intelligence department of another country. This kind of person is not so easy to catch. We have to find another way to do it. Okay!" Zhang Jian said.

Han Zhijie nodded and began to think about how to deal with it. Luo Hong escaped from under his nose and he had to catch him.

"Brother Zhang, do you think this Luo Hong is from Northern Yuan or South Vietnam?"

Zhang Jian thought for a moment, "Luo Hong's hometown is in Changzhou. If nothing else, he should be a black-clad guard from Beiyuan."

Han Zhijie nodded, "It seems that Beiyuan still doesn't give up on Dayan. In recent years, the northern border of Dayan has become tense again. After a few years of peace, I'm afraid there will be another war."

"Hmph! Just fight. Now that I, Dayan, have strong soldiers and horses, if Beiyuan dares to invade, he will never come back." Zhang Jian said.

Han Zhijie nodded confidently, "That's right, Dayan's Zhenwu Guards are stationed at the northern border. They have fought against Beiyuan's army all year round. They have always won more than they lost."

"I remember when you and I were guarding the border with Zhenwu. We had a great time fighting the enemy side by side. If Beiyuan dares to take the initiative to provoke a war, I will definitely ask your Majesty to lead the troops to fight." Han Zhijie said.

"Hahaha……"

"Count me in. When the time comes, you and my brother will return to the battlefield and kill one more damn good thing, so that the wolf boys in Beiyuan will know how powerful my Dayan Iron Cavalry is."

Zhang Jian laughed loudly and stretched out his right hand to Han Zhijie. Then the two of them held their hands together tightly and said in unison: "Brothers working together, we are brave and invincible!"

"Brothers unite, we are brave and invincible! We will follow these two adults to the death!" All the Mirror Guards immediately bowed and saluted.

"Okay! Brothers are all elites selected by Commander Zhang and I from the Zhenwu Guards. If one day comes, I will definitely lead you back to the battlefield to protect your family and country and make achievements."

"Brothers unite as one, be brave and invincible! Defend the home and the country, and make achievements!"

A group of mirror guards immediately shouted loudly.

Han Zhijie made a quiet gesture to his men, and the scene immediately fell silent.

"Brothers, going to the battlefield to kill the enemy is something that will happen in the future. What we have to do now is to capture Luo Hong as soon as possible. It will be dawn soon. Everyone obeys the order. The eleven gates of Fengyang City are only open to Fengyang Gate and Shangyang Gate. The east gate and the other nine gates are all closed.”

"Brothers from the second brigade continue to search the city. Brothers from the first brigade followed Commander Zhang and I to Fengyang Gate and Shangdong Gate to interrogate passers-by. Luo Hong must not be allowed to escape from the city," Han Zhijie said.

"Yes, my lord!"

"Brother Zhang, go to the east gate and leave it to me. I will help you personally lead the search at Fengyang Gate."

"Brother Han, please rest assured. As long as you and I cooperate sincerely, it will be a matter of time before we catch Luo Hong."

Han Zhijie nodded and immediately got on his horse, "Brothers, let's go!"

"Yes, my lord!"
