Chapter 106 Bewildering
The sound of the night was far away, and the dark night was the firelight.
In the living area of the ferry craftsmen, in addition to the craftsmen, there are also managers sent by the owner, and naturally there are guards.
When Liu Laowu shouted for the first time, he woke up the guards and managers there.
The material storage area on the river bank is the storage area for all materials to be built in ferry...
So, soon, the guards there began to gather here.
Not infantry, but cavalry.
Nearly thirty or fifty horses were riding in such a late night, and the sound of horse hooves was neat, and it felt like a large army was attacking.
"Array! They are going to escape..."
It is probably the galloping horses of war, which makes these thieves feel urgency and become more and more anxious to take action.
The ships in Luoshui probably didn't have the chance to come over. Who would have thought that this group of materials could hit people even when they were guarding them?
Liu Laowu asked his brothers to quickly escape from the battle and form a military formation that surrounded three and one missing.
As long as the Luoshui cannot be brought to you, there is no need to worry about the thieves escaping in the winter.
When the guards from the Craftsman District arrive, you will not have to worry about taking down the thieves.
Liu Laowu mainly wants to get a few survivors...
The battle I had just had direct contact with the thief was really short, just to create opportunities for shooting the shipkeeper.
However, Liu Laowu looked at it and found that nearly half of the people were injured, and there were even serious injuries.
But the brothers are holding on...
The powerful crossbows were launched one after another, compressing the thief's space bit by bit, but there was no intention of killing them all.
The brothers all knew that they could not kill all these thieves and had to keep a living. Therefore, the time was not as intense as it was.
Because the sound of the war horses is getting closer and closer.
They are all construction sites, not far away, and there are ready-made passages for daily transportation of wood, and with the firelight reflected here, the cavalry came over very quickly.
After a while, thirty or fifty cavalry had already surrounded him. Rows of powerful crossbows were fired at the critical parts, and they all knew that they needed to keep a living mouth.
"It's time for the Lord to be loyal!"
After shouting, the thieves stabbed themselves directly...
"It's a dead soldier!"
At this time, Liu Laowu didn't care about the danger, so he threw away his waist knife and rushed over, thinking that he could stop one... Unfortunately, he was a little too late to realize.
At this time, many craftsmen came over and started to fetch water from Luoshui to put out the fire. Liu Laowu checked one by one and all... They were all dead.
There were also ships on the construction site, and several ships also went down the river, trying to chase the ship that was being guided...
I just arrived at the Yin hour, and Xu Yi's mansion had just woken up, and there were voices in the whole mansion.
This time is probably when the city gate just opened, but someone in Xu's mansion was knocking on the door: "General, General, Uncle Qing... Uncle Qing......"
"You guys are......"
"Uncle Qing, thieves attacked the ferry last night."
The voices from the mansion gate were heard by all those who were practicing in the martial arts field.
"The ferry was attacked? Then......"
"Uncle Qing, save people first, let's talk about the others after waiting!"
Xu Yi had already arrived at the front yard and looked at the fifteen guards, most of whom were injured, and they supported each other one by one.
Xu Yi examined each one to clarify their injuries.
Liu Laowu wanted to speak several times, but was stopped by Xu Yi's gloomy face. To be honest, the general did not bring up the supplies at the ferry entrance at this time, did not mention their responsibility, but just wanted to cure the wound first. Liu Laowu was moved and felt more and more that he had lost his responsibility.
Although there are all kinds of people who treat the wounded, they are not as always prepared as they are on the battlefield, and they still need some preparation.
Xu Yi looked at it one by one, and the worst thing was that he was pierced by a sword. Most of it was skin trauma, so he didn't have to do it himself, Ling Fengzi and others could handle it.
Liu Laowu was also injured, but his shoulder was scratched...
"Tell me, what's going on?"
"The general is the dead man. It is probably the right time to be ugly, and the thief should have touched the land from Luoshui and ignited the wood."
"We were besieged by the army and were waiting for support. Unexpectedly, Luoshui had to rush to kill the ships. When the support arrived, all the thieves committed suicide. The young one could not stop him, and no one was left behind..."
Several slightly injured guards talked about the situation at that time, and Xu Yi had a rough understanding of it.
At this moment, the first person who doubts should definitely think about Li Song, but Xu Yi always feels something is wrong.
The whole Dongdu knew that the conflict between him and Li Song had intensified. If Li Song was not stupid, he would never use such despicable means to do this at this time.
These days Xu Yi has been thinking that since he was a scoundrel visiting Li Song, the rumors about the market and the official side have become a bit out of control.
I don’t deny that at first Xu Yi thought it was good, and he also asked Wu Hou to do something, but later Xu Yi felt that he was a little tricked, but the rumors became more and more intense, and it seemed that there was another force behind it promoting the development of the incident.
Xu Yi even suspected the Cui family, which is why Xu Yi no longer visited the Cui family to communicate with each other these days.
"Are you counting the burnt wood? Is it ours or the ferry?"
"Return to the Lord, there is not much damage to the wood at the ferry. Our materials are all concentrated around the wooden houses at the base..."
If it was really the Cui family who pushed the ferry entrance to the attack seemed a bit unreasonable. After all, the Cui family knew the order of storage of materials.
Who could it be? Xu Yi was a little confused. It seemed that he had really become the head of the gun, but he couldn't find the person who used the gun. It felt really uncomfortable.
"Where are those thieves?"
"Everyone is dead, and he was taken to Henan Prefecture to report to the officials by the construction site!"
It spread quickly. By the time of Mao, the entire Dongdu officials had spread. Thirteen dead soldiers attacked the ferry and were all killed in siege.
The construction site guards left the thief in Henan Prefecture, and Henan Prefecture ordered some officials of the Criminal Office to lead the inspection of the case...
Li Zhi knelt in Li Song's study at this time, and his face was slapped into a pig's face: "Uncle, I really didn't get involved. I just had some contact with Lu San at the dock, so how could there be any dead soldiers!"
"Uncle, maybe this is their own directing and acting. They try their best to defeat their uncle's reputation and drive him out of the Eastern Capital!"
Li Song did not do this. After hearing the report, he immediately slipped Li Zhi to his house and beat him up.
He knew his nephew's urination and no one was beaten, so he would not tell lies again at this time.
If he had really sent someone, he would have cried and shouted to confess and asked himself to protect him.
Obviously, this matter should have nothing to do with the nephew. Who could it be? Could it be that the Xu family boy was really directed and acted by himself?
It seems impossible. Xu Yi has only been in the past few years since his founding. The so-called manpower is the Taoist priests in Gongming Palace. If he has a dead soldier, Li Song would not believe it.
The Cui family? The bitter plan? Li Song thought this way, but he denied it from his heart. The Cui family's aristocratic family has been passed down for hundreds of years. It can be said that these inherited family members hate this kind of practice the most.
