Chapter Seventy-Three: Two Fences
Cai Dongcheng narrowed his eyes slightly, pondered for a moment and said: "For that assassin, we haven't found a clue so far, maybe this mole is the key to catching him, what we have to do now is to design, dig out this mole first!" I'm going to ......"
Cai Dongcheng lowered his voice and whispered to Yang Mingsheng, Yang Mingsheng bowed his head and said, "Okay!" I also want to see what kind of people in my house have eaten the bear's heart and leopard's guts and dared to betray their officials! ”
He raised his head, although his entire face was covered with layers of white cloth and he couldn't see anything, he still habitually raised his face and "looked" at Cai Dongcheng and said: "Regarding the Taoyuan Village case back then, someone was looking for revenge, do you want to tell him." ”
Cai Dongcheng sneered: "What happened back then, we did it so uncleanly, we actually left a fish that slipped through the net, once he knows about this matter, Anzhi will not offend you and me?" Now that we have been disturbed by this fish that slipped through the net, you don't know the temper of that master, so what if he knows?
A high-ranking person like him would take this person and this matter to heart? He's ...... Dare to kill! zuihou, this matter is not to be solved by you and me, so I didn't have to be reprimanded by him in vain. ”
Cai Dongcheng sighed, looked at Yang Mingsheng's appearance of not being a human being, a ghost or a ghost, and sneered: "I've always been very strange, you have made it like this, people are not ghosts, what are you still alive for?" If you die sooner, it will be a good thing for your enemies and friends! ”
Cai Dongcheng brushed his sleeves away, and when he walked to the screen, he suddenly turned his head again, and said viciously: "Even for your family, it's a good thing." Yang Langzhong, if you do your part, you can be regarded as the first person in the sky and the earth throughout the ages! It's admirable! ”
Listening to his footsteps gradually disappearing, Yang Mingsheng's fists suddenly clenched, clenched for a long time, and then slowly let go, muttering to himself: "weishenme...... I'm starting to hope that the assassin will succeed? ”

On the same day, Cai Dongcheng returned to Fengchenwei, and Xiangshang continued to take leave.
When he returned, he brought back thirty soldiers, each with a bow and arrow.
The mobilization of the army, even if it is only the transfer of a few people, is not a trivial matter, and it is absolutely impossible to dispatch it without a military order, and it is even more taboo to be an errand officer to patrol and arrest the public in the capacity of officers and soldiers.
The Criminal Department, Dali Temple, and Luoyang Mansion are also unwilling, and if there is a case, they will have to transfer the army, so won't they become decorations, which shows that they are incompetent officials?
However, the case in Yang Langzhong's mansion is too big, first a dignified criminal department director Langzhong was crippled, and then two thousand cows were in the Yang family's head in a different place, it is said that even the high-ranking queen of heaven knows about this case.
It was the queen of heaven who personally inquired about the matter, and Feng Chenwei allowed Cai Dongcheng to seconded thirty soldiers, and issued them bows and arrows from the arsenal that were not allowed to be used during non-expedition battles and military exercises.
It is said that because of this incident, Luoyang Mansion is also under a lot of pressure, but in charge of such a large Luoyang City, it really can't draw more public officials, so Luoyang Wei Tang Zong personally came and brought thirty people, all of whom were shrewd and capable Wuhou and Fangding who were drawn from various fangs.
Tang Zong paired these people he brought with the Yang Mansion's Jiading Nursing Courtyard and the Wuhou Fangding of the Fang Fang one by one, using the old to bring the new to jointly carry out patrols to strengthen the vigilance of the Yang Mansion.
When these "Fang Ding and Wu Hou" were brought to Yang's Mansion, Yang Fan looked at their deliberate staggered formation, but their waists were still tall and their expressions were still grim, Yang Fan couldn't help but show a thoughtful look in his eyes, they didn't talk to each other, and they didn't squeeze their eyebrows and smile, they really deserved to be "shrewd and capable Wuhou and Fang Ding"! …,
At this time, Ma Qiao walked towards him with a trembling bad step, and said happily: "With so many people added at once, we will be much safer." ”
Yang Fan looked at Ma Fan's trembling feet like a spring, and then looked at the calm and powerful legs of the newcomers and Wuhou without exception, and smiled lightly: "Yes, this time...... It's so much safer. ”
At night, Yang Mingsheng's mansion has three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, and Wuhou Fangding is constantly coming and going, although the personnel are numerous, they have always maintained absolute silence, except for the rustle of footsteps, nothing can be heard, this solemn atmosphere is like a military camp fortress.
In a five-cornered pavilion, a thousand cows and a yellow unicorn sat on a stone table, and there was a pot of wine and a fat chicken on the stone table in front of him. Most of the fat chickens weighing five catties had been gnawed off by him, and the pile of chicken bones in front of him had all been gnawed clean.
Huang Qilin's round body, although his body is relatively fat, but there is no trace of bloated and dull feeling. Among the four brothers of the "Iron Wall", he is the youngest and the last, but because of his relatively obese figure, he seems to be older than several brothers.
On his left side sat Wang Wuluo, the duke of the Criminal Department who knocked Yang Fan out of the pool with one hand, and on the right was the Yang Mansion Nursing Home spending a small amount of money, and Yang Fan and a newly assigned Fang Ding stood leaning on the pavilion pillar.
Huang Qilin spit out a chicken bone, wiped a handful of oil-stained mouths, and sneered: "This time, we have transferred soldiers, I want to see if that assassin can be faster than a bow and arrow!" ”
After spending a small amount of money to escape death that night, he had been a little frightened, and he couldn't help but say worriedly when he heard this: "Huang Beishen, that assassin has come and gone without a trace, can this bow and arrow deal with him?" ”
Huang Qilin "snorted" and said: "You don't need to blow him so godly, master, Huang has seen it, but no matter how powerful the master is, the speed of the body cannot be faster than the bow and arrow, have you heard of which so-called master is invincible on the battlefield and can defeat a hundred with one enemy?" ”
Wang Wuluo, the head of the Criminal Department, couldn't help but ask: "Huang Beishen, since General Zhonglang has asked for a will, he has transferred strong soldiers from the army, and bows and arrows are also specially approved, why not transfer some crossbows, aren't crossbows more powerful than bows?" ”
Huang Qilin glanced at him with a smile and said, "You haven't been in the army, so naturally you don't understand the truth." ”
Wang Wuluo's face turned red, and he arched his hand and said, "I am asking Huang Bei to teach you." ”
Huang Qilin dropped a chicken bone, wiped his mouth and said: "The crossbow has a longer range than the bow, shoots accurately, and has great lethality, which is true, but the crossbow is also inferior to the bow." As the saying goes, five arrows and one crossbow, that is, for a skilled archer, it takes five arrows to shoot before the crossbowman can send out one arrow.
We can't bring in more soldiers, and this house is full of flowers and plants, and if we miss a single shot, the assassin will disappear without a trace, how can we capture his form with a crossbow? Besides, this is no more than in front of the two armies, the crossbow is much heavier than the bow, and the shape is much larger, and it is not convenient for a single soldier to carry it around! ”
Huang Qilin picked up another piece of chicken and said, "What's more, for a first-class shooter, the lethality of a bow may not be as good as a crossbow. When Xue Rengui, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, was the head of the Tiele Road march, he wanted to lead the army to the Western Regions, and when he was leaving, Emperor Gaozong gave him a banquet.
During the banquet, Emperor Gaozong said to General Xue: "I have heard for a long time that General is good at shooting, and the ancients are good at shooting, but an arrow can penetrate through the seven-layer armor. ”
At that time, I was on the military field of the school, standing closest to the general's platform, and I could hear it clearly. General Xue listened to the will, ordered someone to take his treasure bow, only one arrow, the five layers of leather armor shot through, Emperor Gaozong was shocked when he saw it, and immediately ordered someone to go to the palace to get his own set of bright light iron armor for General Xue to change, for fear that General Xue would receive cold arrows on the battle array. Hey! Ordinary armor can't stop sharp arrows, not to mention this snitch who is all light and high. This bow is enough to deal with him, and if he is caught by an arrow, he will not want to escape. ”…,
Hua Xiaoqian and the public of the Criminal Department were amazed when they heard what Huang Qilin said.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the armored soldiers accounted for sixty percent of all soldiers, but limited to the steel production capacity and the needs of different battlefield environments, coupled with the restraint of strong bows and crossbows and the vast battlefield, there were ways to avoid head-on conflict with the heavy cavalry, and the heavy cavalry, which cost a lot of money and had poor actual combat results, had basically withdrawn from the historical stage, so the armor at that time was mainly leather armor, wooden armor, cloth armor, soap silk armor, etc., and there were not many people wearing iron armor.
The flexible and thick leather armor may not be pierced with a single knife when stacked, and they will also have the effect of cushioning and unloading force when stacked, but the Tang Bow can actually penetrate five layers of leather armor with one arrow, and its power on the battlefield can be imagined.
Yang Fan listened to their conversation, but secretly sneered.
He now fully understood the other party's intentions.
The transfer of archers did have the purpose of strengthening the Yang Mansion's defenses, hoping to use bows and arrows to kill and injure the assassins, but the thirty so-called Fang Ding and Wuhou ......
Yang Fan looked at the Fang Ding who was said to be from Chongzheng Fang, this benevolent brother was called Duan Weifeng, Lao Duan stood as straight as a javelin with his legs together, his eyes were looking straight ahead, even when he scanned the left and right, his attitude was also very vigilant, and his posture was also very serious.
Yang Fan couldn't help but sigh secretly, Cai Dongcheng really should have found some soldiers, not so many elite soldiers, a well-trained elite soldier, every move has long been a habit, how can it be so easy to pretend to be Wuhou Fangding?
Obviously, the inexplicable deaths of Liu Kui and Shen Jiahui had already made them suspicious, and they suspected that there were assassins or assassins' accomplices in the Yang Mansion, so they used both light and dark hands. Thirty archers were brought in to deal with the Assassins and strengthen the deterrent effect.
And the secret hand is those soldiers who pretend to be Wuhou Fangding. If the Assassin was in the palace, or if the Assassin had an associate in the palace, the other thirty soldiers disguised as Wuhou Fangding were responsible for finding him out.
Yang Fan secretly raised his vigilance, he couldn't come step by step, he had to fight quickly.
