The destruction of Shijiutuo shipyard caused panic among the people in western Liaoning.

The matter between the Wuwan people was solved, and now another pirate appeared, and the impact was far more than the ambush attack on Liuguhe.

Many refugees who followed Liu Chuang to western Liaoning began to rekindle suspicion.

They didn't know whether the decision to follow Liu Chuang from Qingzhou to western Liaoning was correct.

Although Liu Chuang ordered Zheng Ren and Huang Zhen to appease the refugees in Guzhu City, everyone knew that this could only be comforted for a while, but not for a long time. If this mysterious pirate cannot be eliminated, I am afraid that no one can truly feel at ease. The people are like this, Liu Chuang is like this, and the generals and counselors under Liu Chuang are like this... Shijiutuo was attacked, which undoubtedly gave many people a loud slap.

Wei Yue, who was stationed in Guzhu City, Zheng Ren, who was in charge of Guzhu City's political affairs, and many people felt their faces hot.

As soon as Sima Yi was dawn, he brought Zhang Chao and Li Lun from Linyu to Guzhu City.

Before he even had time to rest in Guzhu City, he headed straight to Shijiutuo Dock.

At this time, the Shijiutuo Dock was in a mess... Although Zheng Ren had ordered people to pack up the body, there were still blood on the ground, which was particularly eye-catching in the sun. Several houses were still blazing with blue smoke. In the port, three sea boats became charred and could no longer be repaired.

Sima Yi met Zheng Ren and Wei Yue at the dock.

Both of them looked angry, and they were even more ashamed in their words.

“How is the situation?”

Zheng Ren sighed, "The losses are heavy... The dock will take at least twenty days to restore its original appearance, but these are trivial matters. The key is that the craftsmen are so frightened that they are unwilling to work. Just now, a few people resigned to me and dare not continue to work here."

Sima Yi frowned when he heard this.

He walked to the dock and looked at the burned sea ship with a glimmer of light in his eyes.

"Brother, I want to walk around and check the situation."

Zheng Ren is Zheng Xuan's son, and even Sima Yi dare not neglect anything.

He accused Zheng Ren of guilt, and then he took a group of entourage to investigate the dock...

Wei Yue walked to Zheng Ren and said, "This Sima Master is very indifferent. But he is so young, can he really see clues?"

"General Wei is cautious in his words. The young master is always responsible for his work and must not speculate on his own.

You see, the young master uses his talents to make full use of his talents... Although Zhongda is young, the one who can be worthy of his must have his own reasons, and you and I don’t have to ask about it."

Wei Yue's words revealed a strong distrust of Sima Yi.

No wonder Wei Yue is like this. Zhuge Liang is younger than Sima Yi, but he is the only one and is appointed as a general by Liu Chuang. No one raises doubts. After all, Zhuge Liang followed Liu Chuang from Liu Chuang to the Kingdom of Beihai. He was also a student of Zheng Xuan and had experienced many wars with Liu Chuang. Everyone is relatively familiar with him and knows Zhuge Liang's abilities, so he has no objection.

But Sima Yi...

Perhaps in everyone's eyes, Sima Yi, the chief clerk of Huang Pavilion, is far less powerful than Zhuge Liang.

But everyone still has doubts about him, after all, no one knows it. Sima Yi's ability. If Sima Yi had not been Liu Chuang's cousin, it would have caused many people to be dissatisfied. Furthermore, no one knows the true nature of Huangge, otherwise Sima Yi would be even more annoying.

But all of this is not important to Sima Yi.

He took Zhang Cheng and Li Lun around the dock for a while, and then climbed up to see the distance.

It was not until dark that he returned to the temporary military camp outside the dock and visited Zheng Ren.

"Zhongda, can you gain something?"

Zheng Ren asked someone to warm up a pot of wine and gave Sima Yi a full glass.

Wei Yue, who was standing beside him, did not get up to pay attention, but sat there, staring at Sima Yi with a slanted eye.

Sima Yi smiled and said softly: "The harvest is not small."

"oh?"

“I walked a few laps in the dock and then checked out the periphery.

The geographical location of Shijiutuo is very secretive and difficult to find... I also asked several boatmen specifically, and they also told me that even if I walk on the sea, if I don’t pay attention, it is impossible to find the dock. The Shijiutuo dock has only been built for more than a month and many places have not been completed... In this case, it would be impossible to attract pirate attacks, but... Brother, don’t you find it strange?"

Zheng Ren was stunned and nodded slightly.

Wei Yue also sat upright and listened aside.

Sima Yi continued: "Last night, the pirate suddenly appeared and found the dock without any difficulty.

According to the ship workers, Captain Xue sent a ship to the ship at that time, but was sunk by the other party. In other words, these pirates had plans to attack the ship dock from the beginning. Judging from their actions, they were quick, orderly, without any confusion, and their purpose was very clear.

Brother, a dock with a hidden location and few people know it, was attacked by pirates in such a planned manner.

If the pirates had not found out in advance and made complete plans, it would have been impossible to implement it successfully... I suspect that someone would have informed the pirates. If it weren't for this, the pirates would have been so familiar with the dock and had a clear understanding of the guards of the dock."

Wei Yue's face became solemn.

The previous suspicions about Sima Yi also disappeared.

"Second Young Master, are you saying... there are spies?"

In western Liaoning, there were two "two young masters", one was Zhuge Liang and the other was Sima Yi.

However, people are more accustomed to calling Zhuge Liang "Kong Ming", so the title of the second prince mostly refers to Sima Yi.

Sima Yi said: "I cannot fully determine whether there are spies yet, but I believe that if the pirates had not found out the situation in the dock in advance, it would not have been possible to launch such a smooth attack. So, I want to search for the craftsmen in the dock and the people entering and leaving since the construction of the dock. I don't believe that those guys can really predict the future and do it seamlessly?"

Before he finished speaking, Zheng Ren had already grown up.

"Come!"

"Here!"

"Immediately, the roster of craftsmen working in the dock and the roster of guards.

In addition, I want to check out the outsiders who have been in and out of the dock since the construction of the dock... I remember that the young master made such a rule at the beginning of the construction, and I believe that Captain Xue will also leave a record."

"Here!"

The officers immediately took action. In a moment, they brought in thick documents.

"Brother, you check the roster first. I want to see the records of people entering and leaving the dock in recent times.

By the way, please call the dock officials and let them wait aside. If you encounter any questions, we can ask them any questions at any time."

Zheng Ren heard this and praised him for his goodness.

He immediately sent someone to follow Sima Yi's instructions to find officials in charge of copywriting and various miscellaneous tasks in the dock.

More than twenty officials lined up in a row and stood with their hands down.

Only the sound of rustling pages of the book sounded in the big tent, Wei Yue's eyes glanced at everyone like a hawk, making the officials frightened.

"On the second day of July, who is on duty?"

Sima Yi opened the entry and exit record and suddenly spoke after a moment.

An official quickly stood up, sweating all over his head, and bowed his body and said, "If you go back to the young master, it's a villain on duty."

"name."

"Little man, jeep."

Sima Yi looked up and looked at Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren quickly found Jeep's name on the roster, "Jip, whose name is Wenguang, is a secret person from Beihai Kingdom."

"Are you a Xiami person? Why did you come to western Liaoning?"

Jeep hurriedly said, "The villain is poor. Only with the support of Master Xue, can he have a family.

When the commander Xue asked the villain whether he would like to come to Liaoxi. The villain thought about it, but now all this is what Captain Xue is. He should follow. Moreover, the villain can show off his power under the commander Xue, but if Captain Xue leaves, no one will look down on me.

After discussing with his wife, the villain came with Captain Xue.”

Whether Jeep said it is true or false, you can tell it by checking it, so it is unlikely that you will lie.

Sima Yi and Zheng Ren nodded, then looked at Jeep and said, "I'll ask you, when you were on duty on July 2nd, a batch of baggage entered the camp. I see that you wrote on the record: Old Zheng's nephew delivers goods... Generally speaking, you only need to record documents, why add such a record?"

Jeep thought for a while and said, "Old Zheng is the head of the Wooden Artifacts in Guzhucheng.

The construction of the dock requires a lot of wood, and almost all purchase goods from Lao Zheng. Lao Zheng had been in charge of escort before, but there were several strange faces that day. I was a little surprised at the time, so I asked, and the leader said that Lao Zheng was sick that day and he came to deliver goods on behalf of Lao Zheng. When I was unloading the goods, I saw that they were wandering in the dock, so I stepped forward to stop them, and they did not walk around.

But I still feel a little worried... The villain doesn't know why he feels this way, so he added this note."

Sima Yi looked at Zheng Ren.

Zheng Ren asked, "That old Zheng's wooden ware shop is the one at the west gate of the city?"

“That’s right.”

Zheng Ren said: "This old Zheng Wooden Warehouse is an old family in Guzhu City. It has been open in Guzhu City for more than ten years and has a good reputation. However, the wood warehouse is not an industry under Lao Zheng's name. He seems to be doing things for others... Does Zhongda think that Lao Zheng has a problem?"

Sima Yi smiled, "If you have any problems, you will know if you check it."

Without saying a word, Zheng Ren immediately ordered someone to go back to Guzhu City to find out the situation.

In order to prevent accidents, Wei Yue also dispatched 300 soldiers to accompany him.

Sima Yi looked at Jeep with great appreciation and suddenly asked: "Jipuki Culture and Broadcast."

"The villain is here."

"I think you are quite meticulous in your work. Although your words are straightforward, they are straightforward... I ask you, are you willing to come to my Huang Pavilion to serve?"

Huangge's copywriting work is extremely tedious and has a lot of work.
