Although he was in charge of the Zhenfu Division, and there were countless souls who died under the dragon sparrow, there were not many major cases that Li Mu really investigated and handled personally, and more often they were handed over to his subordinates for investigation. This sacrifice is related to the royal family and nobles, and it is related to the great constitution of the country, so he naturally has an unshirkable responsibility, and he will do his best to thoroughly investigate and give the emperor an explanation.

The mystery of all this now falls on Li Jinzeng, the captain of the Hulan garrison. The suspected motive is there, because of his relationship with the Shi family. However, in order to understand the details of what happened outside the enclosure that day, and the connection between these and the sacrifice, it is necessary to divide the troops into two ways, to thoroughly investigate the Hulan enclosure in the open, and to use some other means of the Suppression Division secretly.

After seizing the Fang family's account book and workshop, Li Mu led the elite of the Zhenfu Division and went straight to the Hulan enclosure. The investigation of the Zhenfu Division has always been vigorous and resolute, and it is rare to encounter obstacles, and this time he came to the Hulan enclosure no exception.

The place where the Hulan garrison is located is the Hulan military town, which is the extreme east of the entire Hulan enclosure. Hulan Military Town, but not like the Thirteenth Military Town of the border pass has the responsibility of defending against the enemy, here is only to guard the paddock, for the emperor's autumn use. There are not many ordinary drills, and there is not much atmosphere of war, but today is a little different.

The commander of the Zhenfu Division, Li Mu, led a group of Zhenfu Divisions to fly Yuwei and went straight to the school captain's mansion.

"I've seen Lord Li, the Suppression Division. "Li Jin, the captain of the garrison, was respectful and respectful, and gave a subordinate salute. Elegant and polite, quite bookish, not like a military general.

Li Jinzeng, replied carefully. "It's not polite to investigate the case, Li Mu said directly.

"My lord, excuse me. Li Jinzeng was not annoyed.

"On August 9, did you order to go to Yamoxuan to buy pine toner? ”

"There is a reply to the adult. ”

"What is the use of purchasing pine toner?"

"For crossbow drills. Li Jin glanced up, saw Li Mu's slightly angry expression, and added, "The drill of stepping on the crossbow is aimed at precision. In view of this, our Hulan garrison adopts a new method of drilling. Paper bags are filled with pine toner and interspersed with arrows one by one. Then obey the command, or shoot together, or in a row, or in the opposite direction. Because of the speed and distance of the crossbow, which cannot be measured by the eye, the practice of stepping on the crossbow in the past had to adopt the static method. After carrying pine toner, whenever the arrows touch, there will be loose ink powder. Even at high altitudes, it can be seen clearly and judged accurately. ”

Li Jin once replied unhurriedly, as if he was explaining the method of military training.

Li Mu listened with interest, did not make any interruptions, and did not ask any more questions. He was waiting, observing.

Soon, he waited for the results. The subordinate will inquire about the results of the other garrison officers and soldiers, and it is true that there is pine ink powder purchased from the Fang family, which is indeed used for the drill of stepping on the crossbow, and the lieutenant has submitted this method of training to the Privy Council for reporting.

Li Mu looked at the young lieutenant in front of him and showed a shallow smile. A habit that has been cultivated over the years, once it encounters interesting prey, it can't help but arouse its aggressive nature. It seems that the prey is not ordinary cunning, and there must be no unexpected gains if you ask again at this time, so you might as well leave it for the next time, and the Privy Council also needs to make a trip.

Seeing that the Zhenfu Si Fei Yuwei rode away one after another, until he couldn't hear the sound of the horse's hooves and couldn't see his back, Li Jinzeng raised his arm and gently wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, drop by drop, scrambling to come out.

The events of the day may be a little hasty, I hope not to bring any trouble to the Shi family, otherwise I will really die. The matter will definitely not end here, and the Suppression Division is acting treacherously and viciously, and it seems that he has to be more cautious everywhere.

The results in the Privy Council soon came, and Li Jin, the captain of Hulan Military Town, once did not fall into the trap and blazed a trail, and pioneered the practice method of stepping on the crossbow ink tracking. The date of payment for the report is August 15, after the purchase of pine toner.

Everything looks normal, but it's not.

Li Jinzeng's response has no flaws for the time being, it depends on whether his school in Hulan Military Town is also so calm.

The edict of the Suppression Division is the hell on earth in the minds of the people of the Great Constitution, and it is also the place where the most unjust souls are sacrificed.

Feng Tianrui believed that he was also born in the army, and he had also fought bloodily, but when he was brought into this prison, he felt the wind gusting for no reason. At this time, seeing the commander of the Suppression Division in front of him, Master Li, was swallowing unconsciously, trying to calm himself down a little, and secretly calculated that he usually deducted some military salaries, so as not to alarm the Pacification Division, and was brought into this edict. He didn't know why he was brought in, and he only secretly regretted that he shouldn't have left Hulan Military Town that day.

Li Mu looked at this man with a beard and wrinkles between his eyebrows and eyes, looking loyal and reliable, and felt that such a person, as the captain of Hulan Military Town, went to help the captains who were polite and polite. Such a partner is interesting and should have some story.

"I was ordered to investigate the case, and I encountered a few problems, which happened to be what you could solve. Li Mu said very politely.

"My lord, please speak, I know everything about my humble duties, and I have no end to my words. ”

"Who proposed the new practice method of stepping on the crossbow in Hulan Military Town, and when did you propose it?"

"It's me and, no, it's Captain Li Jin. That was at the beginning of August. ”

"I don't like to hear lies, not a single penny. ”

"Yes. My lord. Feng Tianrui was already drenched in a cold sweat, and he habitually added himself to the report on military affairs just now, and he almost got into trouble.

"A lot of people have come to our prison, and many people think they're smart, and when they answer questions, they're speculating about our intentions, but unfortunately they're all wrong, we want to answer truthfully, and we don't need to add or subtract the slightest. Li Mu sighed slightly, "So they are also fortunate to see how our edict is washed, standing on the flail, and ......", he paused slightly, "Oh, maybe you don't know how we scrub it, it's very simple, as long as you boil the water, then gently pour it on your body, and then gently brush it with an iron brush, those skins, meat, brushing can be clean." ”

"My lord, I know I say it all, I say it all. Feng Tianrui felt that the flesh on his body seemed to be being brushed off by an iron brush, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably.

"Okay, then let's move on. Who ordered to go to the Fang family's Yamo Xuan to buy pine toner?"

"Captain Li Jinzeng. ”

"After the purchase of pine toner powder came back, how many times did you practice the crossbow?"

"Only once, on the ninth day of the ninth month. ”

"Who chose the day for the drill?"

"Li Jinzeng. ”

"How did you practice on September 9?"

"On that day, we prepared a thousand paper packets packed with pine toner, and four hundred crossbows, which were tied to horses by cavalry, and according to the order, we fought in pairs of fifty men, and after the drill we returned to the barracks. ”

"What do you find unusual about your practice?"

Feng Tianrui knew that this was the crux of the matter, and what the Zhenfu Division wanted to ask was an abnormality. What was so unusual about that day, he couldn't help but think about it carefully.

Li Mu didn't urge, but waited quietly, waiting for the answer given by this bearded schoolman.

"Your Excellency. As you mention, there were a few anomalies that day. ”

"Tell me about it. ”

"Originally, our crossbow drill was to shoot at the arrow target, but later Li Jin once felt that it was difficult to achieve the effect of the drill when the arrow target was fixed, so he wanted to change it to a moving target, so he chose to use flying arrows as the arrow target. The lowly position believes that this change is too rapid to be effective. The results of the day's drill also confirmed that the crossbows flew wildly, making the air completely black. However, he did not reprimand him for the results of this exercise. This is not in line with his usual performance. ”

"He doesn't care about the effectiveness of the exercises, but the new ways of doing them. ”

"Adults are discerning and discerning. ”

"Are there any other anomalies?"

"And, there's. In normal times, our drills are all within the military town. On that day, Li Jinzeng ordered out of the enclosure and came to the place not far from Juetai Temple. ”

Li Mu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Did anyone raise any objections?

The humble office objected at the time. Li Jinzeng's explanation is that the drill of stepping on the crossbow is combined with the drill of the rapid march. However, he did not inform him in advance that he would be out of the paddock. ”
