After seeing the scene in the cellar, Qiu Bu finally understood why this dilapidated house in a dilapidated yard had to be covered with expensive fireproof glazed tiles.
Armor, fire oil cabinets, bows and arrows, muskets, black powder... all kinds of high-end firearms and weapons, there is a sizable arsenal underneath.
Pei Qian decisively asked one of his minions to go up the mountain and call his brothers to move the goods.
Qiu Bu had planned to set a fire before retreating and burn the house and the corpses on the ground completely, so that no trace of the government could be found and he could still escape unscathed before daybreak.
But he knew Pei Qian's temper. After seeing these tough guys, it would be impossible to leave unless he evacuated them. His persuasion would be in vain. In this way, there is no need to burn the corpses in the house, and the arsenal is on the mountain. Who can't find out that it was someone from Jiangjun Mountain who did it?
"Brother, if you take these things, aren't you afraid that the government will come to investigate?" Qiu Bu couldn't help but remind him.
"All the Jinyi guards have been killed, are you still afraid of the government?" Of course Pei Qian understood what Qiu Bu meant. If the body was burned, the government might not be able to find out, "Brother, there is someone in the government!"
"Do you think the government dares to take care of this matter?" Qiu Bu said, "It has always been the county government who came to fight and moved the arsenal. I'm afraid the people who come are not the county government's soldiers and crab generals."
"Hmph! What are you afraid of?" Pei Qian said harshly, "If these guys have something to do, just go with them!"
Pei Qian sighed in his heart, clasped his fists and made speeches.
"Brother, won't you go up the mountain with us?" Pei Qian asked reluctantly. After helping Qiu so much, he thought he would agree to go up the mountain and take the top spot since he was too embarrassed to be moved.
"If...brother, you are willing to listen to my younger brother and burn this place and the arsenal to the ground." Qiu Bu seemed to have made a lot of determination. He couldn't bear to implicate the brothers on General Mountain because of himself. He only brought ten people with him before. People came here because of this consideration, "Brother, I will go up the mountain with my brother!"
When Pei Qian heard this, he became embarrassed. Obviously, he was reluctant to part with these armors and guns. Not to mention that he was a frontier soldier and had always had feelings for armors. Even an ordinary thieves would be moved by these high-quality weapons and equipment. I can't take my eyes away.
"Are you afraid that if you bring these up the mountain, the government will come to suppress you?" Pei Qian made excuses for himself, "Our Jiangjun Mountain is located in a dangerous place, easy to defend and difficult to attack. After so many years, the government still can't do anything to us? Even if I don't. Sooner or later, the imperial court will find out about the killing of Jin Yiwei! It is better to get it for sure!"
"Brother, I'm used to being undisciplined." Qiu Bu still said the same thing.
"Brother, since you left the border, you have become timid and afraid of getting into trouble." Pei Qian shook his head regretfully, but no longer wanted to stay, "This is not like the you I know!"
Qiu Bu smiled and handed over his hand again: "Brother, please take care of yourself. I will repay you for your kindness later in the day!"
…
They moved more than a hundred brothers from Jiangjun Mountain, rushed into the pasture, and killed all the herdsmen and farmers on the pasture. They took away all the armor, fire, blunderbuss, and gunpowder in the arsenal, as well as the cattle, sheep, and horses in the stables. Up the mountain.
Only the heavy fire oil tank in the arsenal was huge and heavy and couldn't be moved away. I guess the oil tank was built in the arsenal, or there were other exits underground. However, Pei Qian and the others searched around but couldn't find it, so they simply gave up and opened the fierce fire oil tank. The black fierce fire oil flowed all over the floor. When everyone climbed out of the arsenal, they threw a fire into the ground. The fire was fierce for a while. , and within a short time, the entire pasture was shrouded in billowing black smoke.
Pei Qian returned home with a full load.
…
By the time Wang Qian and the others got the news, the pasture had already turned into flat ground and was devastated. Du Lifu and others were missing. Although the scorched corpses on the ground were burned beyond recognition, five of Jin Yiwei's waistbands were missing, and none of them belonged to Du Lifu and others.
What made Wang Qian most angry and frightened was that the arsenal was destroyed!
This matter is so big that I can't hide it even if I want to.
Sure enough, Ji Gang summoned Wang Qian, Li Chun and others overnight. He did not get angry or curse, and his tone was calm and like a common conversation.
But the calmer Ji Gang's tone was, the more uneasy Wang Qian and the others felt.
The Tatar Imperial Guards were personally appointed by the emperor, so there is no problem; the arsenal was burned down, and there are no traces of it, so there is no problem.
But if Tatars and arsenals are put together, there will be a problem.
It is actually not a pity that the arsenal was burned down. This is just a small part of it.
But unfortunately, the destruction was not complete enough. The heavy fire oil tank is still there, and the traces of burning heavy fire oil are still there. The most terrible thing is that many weapons are missing - weapons that should not appear on the grassland.
"I often warn you to put the overall situation first, but what about you? You have to make such a simple thing so complicated." Ji Gang said, "Why do you have to fight with a hundred households? It costs so much. With mental strength, it would be great if the fight can produce a result! But what about the result? You guys! You are really getting better and better as you live...Wang Qianhu?"
"The official is here." Wang Qian stepped forward tremblingly.
"Lin Linyou, you were sent to Caochang. Everything happened because of you and him." Ji Gang said, "This time, be more direct and don't mess things up again."
"Yes, yes, I understand." Wang Qian said respectfully. He knew in his heart that, firstly, Lin Linyou couldn't do it anymore. In fact, he did it again and again, but he didn't achieve anything. It was because they were too good at it. He takes it seriously, at least, let it go for a while. Don't waste time and energy on him now, let him run away! Secondly, the missing weapons must be recovered and properly disposed of, and all insiders must be disposed of properly; thirdly, and most importantly, if this matter is not handled properly, the head will be destroyed. The Wusha on the head may be preserved and passed on to future generations, but the head wearing the Wusha is hard to say.
After leaving Ji Gang's residence, Wang Qian complained to Li Chun: "You are not free from all these things! If I hadn't wanted to vent your anger for you, I wouldn't have done anything to that person named Lin. Don't I want to ignore it!”
Li Chun said: "At this time, don't say such harsh words. I didn't say that you should just sit back and do nothing! I said, Brother Wang, if you want to mess with him, be more ruthless and restrain your hands. This is better, just steal the chicken." If you don’t, it will be counterproductive.”
"Are you talking lightly? Why don't you kill me directly if you can?" Wang Qian sighed quietly, "If he could do it directly, Kingo King would have done it himself. How could he tolerate him until now?"
"What are you going to do now?" Li Chun asked.
"Du Lifu. Find this guy first." Wang Qian sighed again, "If he is not of my race, his heart must be different!"
At present, Du Lifu had already fled to Fancheng, a hundred miles away, to rest temporarily. He knew that returning to Jinyiwei would lead to death. For now, the only way to go back to the grassland was to go back to the grassland. There were so many tribes and there would always be one who would take him in. Besides, it was his leader who betrayed the grassland back then, not Du Lifu.
…
"Du Lifu, Du Lifu, why are you going to mess with that bastard Qiu Bao when you have nothing to do?" Lin Linyou sighed in the small courtyard, and then continued to play with his pile of carpenter's tools with his head lowered.
This time he wanted to make a table with six holes drilled under the table and sixteen stone balls placed on the table.
He would also hug Yue Rong's slender waist, take a slender stick, and teach her to use the stick to poke the ball into the hole, so that she could see what it meant to hit a hole in one.
This is a truly useful invention!
After all, it was too boring to sit in the small courtyard all day long. Lin Linyou really wanted to play and score a hole in one.
