The road to counterattack of the woman who traveled through time and space

Chapter 237: Too Busy

It's really too busy. To be honest, I would rather return to the imperial city and be an official in the Honglu Temple."

"Never mind. I don't have anything else to do. However, Lord Liu is already the master here. Please be kind to my people in the south."

Mu Ruixi didn't want to have anything to do with these high-ranking officials, but what could she do?

Before, it was just Mu Ruixi who was alone, so it was no big deal. But this time, it was obviously not a single act. He also had to consider Lin Muwen and could not be so direct.

At the beginning of the banquet, a group of ministers gathered around the table and started eating. The dishes were not particularly delicious, most of them were local wild animals, but everyone ate with gusto.

Wang Bo was drinking with Mu Ruixi and the others when he saw a guard rushing in from outside.

The guard whispered a few words into the ear of a trusted official of Wang Bo and then immediately retreated.

When the official heard this, he was shocked and rushed to Wang Bo's side. He whispered something and then stood aside with a serious face and waited.

As Wang Bo listened to the official's words, his expression became more serious.

Seeing Wang Bo's expression becoming increasingly ugly, Mu Ruixi and the others understood that something must have happened in southern Xinjiang.

Although it was unclear what was going on, everyone could guess from Wang Bo's serious expression that this matter must be very serious.

As expected, the official said a few words to Wang Bo and then made way. Wang Bo walked into the crowd and spoke slowly with a serious face, "I just received news that Shahe Town was a bloodbath, and most of the people were killed."

"What?!" a middle-aged man exclaimed.

"How is this going?"

……

When Wang Bo said this, his younger brothers were shocked. A small town had at least a thousand people, and most of them were killed in an instant. This was too scary.

Wang Bo gestured for silence, and the people below immediately quieted down. "I don't know much about this matter, but I think we should go over and check it out right away."

Mu Ruixi and the others did not expect that such a situation would occur in southern Xinjiang, but they could not leave. No matter what, they had to find out what was going on.

With so many casualties in Shahe Town, it wasn't a big deal. Everyone didn't want to fight anymore and asked Wang Bo to go over and take a look.

"Captain Li, what about you?" Wang Bo waved his hand and turned to ask.

"I'm here!" A rough general immediately came over.

Captain Li was the one Wang Bo recently promoted to become the commander of a cavalry battalion.

The original commander-in-chief of the Cavalry Battalion had been captured by Wang Bo and was in cahoots with Captain Wang, so Sun Hai was promoted to the commander-in-chief of the Cavalry Battalion.

Wang Bo said, "Captain Li, gather your troops immediately, and then we will go to Shahe Town together."

"Yes!" Captain Li responded and turned to leave.

Wang Bo felt that the deaths of hundreds of people in Shahe Town were definitely intentional, so he asked Captain Li to lead the army there to prevent any accidents.

After Captain Li left, Wang Bo went on to mention some other officials. This time, they were Wang Haiwang from Shahe Town.

Seeing that Wang Bo had finished speaking, Mu Ruixi stood up and said to Wang Bo, "Let's go over and take a look. We can't just ignore something like this."

Wang Bo nodded quickly and said, "Thank you, Imperial Envoy."

Shi'an waved his hand and said, "Master Liu, what do you think of this matter?"

Wang Bo frowned and thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Grand Secretary, I haven't personally investigated this, but I always feel that four or five hundred people died inexplicably in Shahe Town. I think someone did it on purpose."

Shi'an responded and said no more.

"Okay, now is not the time to speculate. Everyone is making preparations, and it's time for us to go to Shahe Town." Zhang Shuhe next to him suggested.

"Miss Liu is absolutely right. I will go down and make arrangements right away." After Wang Bo finished speaking, he went out to make arrangements.

Mu Ruixi and others hurried back to the post station and packed their luggage. They had originally planned to set off for Western Xinjiang tomorrow, but this time they had no time.

The matter in Shahe Town concerns her life, so she must handle it well. Then, Mu Ruixi will feel relieved.

When everyone was ready, Wang Bo immediately had someone take them to the south city gate.

In addition, there were five or six officers of various ranks, and the Cavalry Battalion was also ready. A group of people rushed to Shahe Town in a mighty manner.

Shahe Town and Nanming City are not very close, and can even be said to be quite far away.

Southern Xinjiang covers an area of over a thousand miles, the largest of which is Nanming City, and the rest are small cities.

Shahe Town is located in the southern part of southern Xinjiang and belongs to Nanwei City.

Because there were many civil officials in the team, the team did not move very fast. In the end, Wang Bo became a little anxious and asked the Cavalry Battalion to send a team to provide support, while the rest of the people immediately headed towards Shahe Town.

Sun Hai was delighted when he received Yue Zhong's order. As a general, he didn't want to let his subordinates protect those officials who had no real power.

After receiving Wang Bo's instructions, he immediately left more than 300 people in the caravan, and the rest quickly rushed to Shahe Town.

Although Wang Bo kept urging them, the group arrived in Shahe Town at noon the next day.

Upon hearing this, Wang Bo could no longer hold back and jumped out of the car. The ministers and Mu Ruixi also got out of the car.

"vomit!"

"Wow... Ugh..." Gong Yexiao spat and then vomited.

……

Seeing this scene, all the civil and military officials began to vomit.

Mu Ruixi could clearly feel the strong smell of blood in the air of Shahe Town.

At this moment, Captain Li, who had been waiting there for a long time, immediately came forward and saluted Wang Bo. "Mr. Liu, our cavalry battalion arrived last night. As soon as we arrived, we smelled a strong smell of blood. When we got closer, we saw hundreds of corpses. The scene was extremely tragic."

After listening to Sun Hai's report, Wang Bo's face became solemn. In Shahe Town, several soldiers from the Cavalry Battalion carried out the dead people.

"How many people died?" Wang Bo turned to look at everyone and spoke.

Sun Hai bowed and said, "Sir, we have found 731 people."

Wang Bo was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's strange. Mr. Wang seemed to have said that four or five hundred people died here. Why is there a sudden increase?"

"Sir Liu, I am not mistaken. The intelligence we just received is indeed more than 400." Wang Hai said hurriedly.
