The news that the 1,000 cavalry of the inspection horse infantry battalion under the command of the Northwest Transfer Yamen was completely annihilated in the mountainous area on the border between Yinzhou and Ganzhou, and such news was enough to shake the officialdom of the entire northwest states.

Multilateral affairs in the northwest, but such a thing, in the past hundred years, has not happened, especially this incident still happened in Yinzhou, the people who were completely annihilated were still a thousand heavily armed cavalry belonging to the transfer yamen, not a thousand unarmed ordinary people and ordinary people, this is a major event that can pierce the sky, and in the entire northwest, there are very few people and forces who have the ability to do this.

All of a sudden, the officials at all levels in Yinzhou, the Northwest Transfer Yamen, and the wealthy families in the Northwest Prefectures, all sides of the reconnaissance cavalry, sent spies, secret sentinels, all poured into the battlefield on the border between Ganzhou and Yinzhou, wanting to find out a little clue, and the desolate hills suddenly became lively.

Among them, the most anxious to catch fire is naturally Jiang Tianhua, the northwest transfer envoy.

Jiang Tianhua, who had just heard the news, didn't believe it at first, he didn't believe that in the entire northwest, someone dared to move his people to transfer the yamen, and he could wipe out all the 1,000 cavalry under his command at one time, there are only a handful of people and forces in the entire northwest with such ability, except for the assassins of a few states and a few wealthy families, almost no one can do this, of course, those assassins and wealthy families, even if they can do it, they will not risk the world's disapproval to go against the transfer yamen. Attacking the soldiers and horses of the imperial court is almost equivalent to a rebellion, and who would dare to do this before a certain time?

It wasn't until Qu Mingcheng's body was placed in front of Jiang Tianhua that he was finally convinced that the cavalry of the 1,000-horse infantry battalion under his command had really been killed, and there was no one left.

On the day he learned the news, Jiang Tianhua was furious in the transfer yamen, roaring like thunder, one day, the vase table in the transfer yamen was smashed countless by him, but on the same day, he went to the Yinzhou Thorn Shi Mansion to meet the Yinzhou Thorn Shi, and then the next day, the transfer Yamen offered a reward of 100,000 taels of silver for the murderer, and the people and horses in the entire Yinzhou Torture Yamen all moved, looking for clues everywhere, and the cavalry of the two battalions under the command of the Yinzhou Overseer also left the barracks and went to the mountainous area at the junction of Yinzhou and Ganzhou, and the movement was very noisy, but unfortunately, there was no use for birds, because at that time, Yan Liqiang and his party, has already returned to Pingxi County without shock, and also did some sweeping work along the way, all sides of the reconnaissance, criminal arrest, except for knowing that the ambush and transfer of the yamen people came on horseback, rode horses, used bows and arrows, and there were carriages in the team, other information, I don't know anything else.

Of course, for Jiang Tianhua, he knew what the men and horses he sent were going to do, so after those people had an accident, he immediately suspected that it was Ganzhou Thorn Shi Lei Sitong who made a move, which made Jiang Tianhua grit his teeth and vowed to impeach Lei Sitong as long as he found a little evidence, and wanted Lei Sitong to look good, and put a hat on Lei Sitong to rebel.

However, after he mobilized all his connections to collect clues about Lei Sitong's shot, in the end, nothing was found. Because in the two days after the incident, Lei Sitong and several of his generals were in Ganzhou City, and the soldiers and horses under Lei Sitong, especially the cavalry, had no transfer of more than 100 people at all, and there was no news of personnel loss in the cavalry battalions of various counties in Ganzhou.

If it's not Lei Sitong, who is it?

Yan Liqiang's name flashed from Jiang Tianhua's mind, but in a blink of an eye, it was denied by Jiang Tianhua himself, because even if Yan Liqiang had such a motive, he didn't believe that Yan Liqiang had that ability at all, what he sent out was a thousand cavalry, not a thousand rabbits or a thousand pigs, and he wanted to wipe out all the thousand people without a trace, in Jiang Tianhua's heart, it was not something that any cat or dog could do, Yan Liqiang was just a hairy boy, he knew a little bit of martial arts, he had a little ability, and he heard that martial arts cultivation was okay, but he sent it himself, it was more than a thousand cavalry, and even Qu Mingcheng was killed, Qu Mingcheng is a master who has already advanced to the martial arts, if Yan Liqiang has such ability, why should he be driven back to Ganzhou from the imperial capital by the prime minister......

Jiang Tianhua was convinced of his judgment, and it wasn't until a few days later that he heard a news - just before the accident with his soldiers and horses, Yan Liqiang had left Pingxi County on horseback with the newly recruited two hundred family members, and after the incident, Yan Liqiang returned to Pingxi County with two hundred family members.

From the perspective of time and motivation, Yan Liqiang is very suspicious, but another question arises, how could Yan Liqiang kill all the 1,000 cavalry under his command with only more than 200 newly recruited family members without losing any of his manpower? This doesn't make sense at all, if you can be so powerful by recruiting a few family members casually, then the court still raises a fart army, unless, there are powerful people and forces that you don't know are helping Yan Liqiang, and there are still people who want to make themselves look good, and it is possible that there is not only one person or one force who can make a move, but many people!

This kind of inference made Jiang Tianhua even more suspicious in his heart, thinking about the people he had offended in this position over the years, in addition to being surprised, Jiang Tianhua was more afraid and afraid, since those who wanted him to look good even dared to kill so many people, then, in the eyes of others, the bag of his transfer envoy might not be much more valuable than the thousand soldiers and horses, a dark arrow, a glass of poisoned wine, or a master assassin who did not want to die, could kill himself......

Qu Mingcheng is a master of martial arts, but Jiang Tianhua is not.

The more inconclusive the investigation between the transfer yamen and the Yinzhou Thorn Mansion became, the more bottomless and empty Jiang Tianhua's heart became, and everyone seemed to have bad intentions towards him.

This big case that shook the entire northwest was vigorous at first, and within a few days, without any clues, it turned out to be a headless unsolved case full of all kinds of gossip, but there were many people who coveted the 100,000 taels of silver offered by the transfer yamen, and provided a lot of various clues to the transfer yamen, some people said that they had seen a large number of black wind thieves at the junction of Ganzhou and Yinzhou, and some kept saying that they had seen many people from the White Lotus Sect haunting that mountainous area, and even the Shatu people and the Black Buck people ran out......

And Pingxi County and the Manufacturing Bureau, which set off the source of this turmoil, seemed to be calm after Yan Liqiang brought people back with people.

Yan Dechang's injury has basically healed, the manufacturing bureau is still building a four-wheeled carriage, every day into the gold, the fort wall of Liuhe Town is getting more tired and higher, slowly showing the outline, the archery club, everything is as usual, all kinds of training are carried out every day, everything is full of vitality......

On October 17, Wang Jianbei, the warden of Pingxi County, suddenly visited the Archery Society, which was somewhat unexpected by Yan Liqiang.

When Wang Jianbei came to the Archery Society, Yan Liqiang was still on the martial arts arena of the Archery Society, watching a cadre of the Archery Club practice the team, and then a student of the Archery Club who was on duty at the door came to report, saying that there were several people with fresh faces who came to the door of the Archery Society, and one of them claimed to be Wang Jianbei, the keeper of Pingxi County, and Yan Liqiang knew that Wang Jianbei was coming......
