The so-called capture is not all captured alive. Therefore, when he saw the corpses on the ground, Yang Jinzhou didn't even blink his eyelids, but Zhu Fangrui on the side swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva repeatedly, and finally finally held back the feeling of turning over the river and the sea in his chest. However, he still unnaturally looked away from those who had died miserably, looked at Qin Hu and asked, "Brother Qin, did you bring people to kill?" ”

"When I led the troops up the mountain, they were about to run and I caught them. As a result, they deliberately hit the knife during the fight. It was dark, and by the time I found out that I was going to stay alive, they were either too wounded and died, or they had slit their necks and died. Speaking of this, Qin Hu's face became even darker as the bottom of a pot, and he knelt down on one knee in front of Yang Jinzhou, "My lord, they are all humble and incompetent. ”

Yang Jinzhou didn't mention anything like responsibility, but asked bluntly: "Don't kneel around." I ask you, how did the fire start and what damage? ”

"Returning to my lord, the fire started all of a sudden, and someone poured oil on it. As you can see, there is no way to extinguish the fire at night at night, and the weather is dry, so I am afraid that I will have to wait until the morning. If you want to say that the damage "is not the biggest loss at the moment, but ......" Qin Hu hesitated for a moment, then lowered his voice, "It's just that here and then there is the Xishan Imperial Mausoleum, if the fire continues to burn like this, I am afraid that I will ......"

There is no need to say this any more, even Zhu Fangrui can understand what is going on, and his face immediately changes greatly. Yang Jinzhou only frowned slightly, and then asked lightly: "Fang Rui said to me in the Mirror Garden just now, it wasn't the situation where you took someone to the fire to check it out, but an errand assigned by others?" ”

Hu nodded, and then said with some confusion, "It's the Ming commander." I heard that he and two other commanders and envoys would work with others to impeach the lieutenant officers and men of the battalion "in case the incident suddenly provokes a change." Why, when you came back, you didn't see them? ”

"I didn't see any of them!" Zhu Fangrui hurriedly answered, and then looked around, "This is too unreasonable, as subordinates, how dare they be so lazy?" The matter of this fire is not a trivial matter, they all avoid it, and the adults come back and don't ask if they don't greet it, is there something strange about this matter? ”

Although Yang Jinzhou didn't answer, Qin Hu could tell from his cold face that this master was afraid that he was already angry. Sure enough, "It didn't take long, half an hour later, when those military attachés dressed in different uniforms from ordinary sergeants rushed here to pay respects, Yang Jinzhou looked at them for a while, and then asked in a deep voice: "Commander Ming, if I'm not mistaken, you are on duty tonight, right?" ”

"Lord Huiyu" is a subordinate. ”

"You're also an old man in the army. Together, you, as the chief officer, "There are so many commanders and commanders, and you don't need to let them go, why did you let Qin Hu go up the mountain to check the fire?" He is just an ordinary soldier in the front battalion, can he afford such a big event? He asked the commander of the Ming envoy sharply, and he didn't wait for the other party to answer, he looked at the other two military attaches and shouted, "There is also the commander of the commander, and the night assignment has always been under your control." Although I returned to the camp overnight and walked on a small road, there was not a single soldier guarding there. ”

"Your Excellency, forgive your sins!"

The three of them hadn't had time to get up, and at this time, they were even more afraid of kneeling there on one knee, "they didn't even dare to raise their heads."

Zhu Fangrui, who was standing behind Yang Jinzhou on the side, looked at the three commanders, "Remembering that they usually put on a big show in front of them, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but tilt up slightly, although they didn't sneer, but they were contemptuous in their hearts." However, what made him incomprehensible was that "after asking two sentences, Yang Jinzhou stepped forward and personally helped one of the gray-haired veterans of the three to his feet."

"This matter has nothing to do with the Thai commander, you preside over the military law in the battalion, you have always been fair and honest, and you have no fault."

As soon as these words came out, the veteran who was called the Thai commander was suddenly relieved. After all, Yang Jinzhou not only picked him out lightly and skillfully in one sentence, but also if those two short sentences of evaluation reached the emperor's ears, it would be of infinite benefit. So, he glanced at the two colleagues who looked extremely bad, and then coughed lightly and said, "Admiral, tonight's events came suddenly. The investigation must be traced, but at this extraordinary time, it is better to suppress the situation first. ”

Among the three major commanders, two were reprimanded, and the other was praised but did not have the slightest intention of interceding for the other two, this scene made Zhu Fangrui thoughtful. When Yang Jinzhou gave a few more deep commands and sent everyone away, he couldn't help but step forward and ask softly: "Admiral, do you think that tonight's incident is the mastermind of those two commanders?" ”

This question made Qin Hu's face extremely strange. Seeing that Yang Jinzhou didn't think it was wrong, although he knew that his adults didn't hate such straight-bellied people, he still had to slap Zhu Fangrui from behind. Seeing that this stunned kid was only stunned, he lowered his head, and he was about to diverge from the side, but he only heard Yang Jinzhou say lightly: "I didn't ask them because I doubted them, but because they really didn't fulfill their duties." As for the commander of Praise Yangtai, it is not because he is a veteran, but because he has not been negligent in taking charge of military law. ”

Although Yang Jinzhou did not explicitly say that Zhu Fangrui should not be smart, the intention of beating was enough. It's just that when the commander who took over arrived, and after saluting, he received the position of Qin Hu's leader, and the three of them and a group of relatives were on the way back to the barracks, but Yang Jinzhou suddenly stopped his horse, and when he looked left and right, he said to Qin Hu: "You take the path alone and go to that place to take a look, no matter what happens, come back and report me immediately." ”

After a moment of distraction, Qin Hu couldn't help but be shocked in his heart: "What does the adult mean ......"

Seeing that Yang Jinzhou didn't mean to explain further, Qin Hu didn't say a word and immediately galloped away, but Yang Jinzhou still took Zhu Fangrui and the others to slowly walk on the dark road. Yang Jinzhou was used to night roads, Zhu Fangrui didn't feel it when he rushed into the city before, but at this time, he looked left and right, but he felt that there were dark shadows everywhere in the woods and grass, and he couldn't help but lean closer to Yang Jinzhou, and one hand was also pressed on the hilt of the sword. It wasn't until he seemed to have been kicked in the calf that he was startled.

"There is no need for all the grass and trees to be soldiers, the Chu Dynasty has never had a peaceful and prosperous era, and the imperial court will be an example of an assassin succeeding." I couldn't even hear the sound of birds and chirping insects on the mountain road in winter, so Yang Jinzhou's deep voice was particularly harsh, "If someone really does this, no matter whether he succeeds or not, the Son of Heaven will be angry and float thousands of miles, and it will inevitably be a river of blood inside and outside the court." I don't think it's like that, no matter what kind of dead man it is..."

As soon as the words were said here, "Zhu Fangrui, who was next to Yang Jinzhou, suddenly saw it, I don't know when, the bow behind Yang Jinzhou was already in his hand, and he didn't even hear the sound of the bowstring, so he saw an arrow suddenly sink into the forest. The next moment, there were two more slams breaking through the air, and a muffled snort sounded somewhere in the forest, followed by the sound of arrows volleying in the air, and the muffled snort suddenly turned into a miserable scream. Before his mind could fully turn, he saw that the retinues had jumped off their horses and entered the forest from all directions, and in a short time he heard the sound of birds chirping from the depths of the house.

"It should have been caught.

,..."

Seeing Zhu Fangrui looking at him with an incredulous face, Yang Jinzhou smiled slightly: "Although you have never been on the battlefield, you have a bit of intuition about danger. It's been a long time since I've been able to shoot with a real gun, and once that night arrow could shoot at least three arrows in a row, but now it is only the power of one arrow, and fortunately the assassin was shocked, otherwise he might not have succeeded. ”

"Are you also intuitive?"

"Intuition? No, I just heard the movement, and as for the other side......" Yang Jinzhou didn't say any further. Previously, he only said half of what he said to Zhu Fangrui. Of course, the rebuke is not out of suspicion, and the praise is not for the sake of pity for the elderly, but it can further divide these three people who are far more senior than him, whether or not they have anything to do with tonight's events. As for the situation that was expected at this moment, it was the information obtained from those corpses. Such a dead soldier, when he was in Jiangnan as the commander-in-chief of Liangjiang, "has encountered more than once." Moreover, he has experienced a lot of night battles, and his ears are far more sensitive than ordinary people.

After a while, a few relatives escorted a man in black covered in blood out. As soon as he looked at him, the black-clothed H glared at Yang Jinzhou viciously, and then scolded hatefully: "Don't think that you don't know what you do, Hou Ye won't let ......,... go"

Before he finished speaking, he only felt a sharp pain in his jaw, and the jaw joint was dislocated all of a sudden. Rao is a dead soldier who has gone through countless harsh trainings, and at this time he only feels that his mind is blank, and when his elbow and knee joints are also dislocated one by one, in addition to the severe pain, his expression is more sluggish than frightened.

"I'm not a brocade guard now, so I don't have time to interrogate you! Tie it up and go back to camp! ”

After hearing these two concise words, the guards quickly tied the people to the horse, and then followed Yang Jinzhou to the camp. When the group returned to the camp, they saw that it was already solemn, and there was no trace of any commotion. When the two commanders came to ask for the guilt again, Yang Jinzhou didn't say a word, only nodded lightly, and sent people down. It wasn't until Qin Hu rushed in angrily that his expression moved slightly.

"My lord, man............... No one sees the son! ”

"What about those who stay?"

"There is not a single figure!" Qin Hu took a deep breath, and then said like a cannon, "There is also a fire there, that house has been burned to a pile of charcoal, and it is still hot on it, it is estimated that it should not be long after the mountain fire burned behind the camp before." Damn, this must be a ploy to divert the tiger from the mountain, it's all my fault! ”

"You don't have to say it." Yang Jinzhou narrowed his eyes, and without waiting for Qin Hu to ask for guilt again, he shook his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, when I went back before, it was already arranged." It's just that today's events seem to be deliberately led over there. ”！ ~！
