Chapter 466 Search
As the footsteps approached, a team of people walked out of the gate.
The person in charge is a strong middle-aged man with wide shoulders, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, which gives people a strong and powerful feeling.
"Director, these people want to break in." The tiger-shaped flag soldier outside the door said to Huang Chong who walked out of the inside.
Huang nodded, then looked at Huang An who was protected by several officers and soldiers, and said, "Mr. Huang, you are a rare guest. I wonder what it is worth to come to our tiger flag artillery?"
Huang An was stunned for a moment when he heard this. He did not expect that the other party would admit that this was a cannonyard with the tiger flag, and there was no intention of hiding it at all.
However, this time he brought people to Zhaojiayu to find evidence of the crime of casting cannons with tiger flags. Since the other party admitted it, it would be easier to save trouble. He said, "Who allows you to cast cannons? I don't know that the court has a ban, prohibiting the people from casting cannons privately. The Ming Dynasty's laws and regulations, casting cannons privately is like a rebellion. Since you admit it, then go back to the yamen with me to be tried!"
Huang, who was standing in front of the door, smiled and said, "Mr. Huang misunderstood. Caomin just said that this is a cannon farm. As for the crime of casting cannons, Caomin cannot afford it."
"You admit that this is the cannonyard with your tiger flag. Moreover, the people around you can hear the sound of cannons every day. You dare to say that you have not cast cannons and fool you!" A personal soldier next to Huang An pointed at the cannonyard behind Huang Chong and asked loudly.
There is indeed a sound of cannons in the artillery field every day. The cast cannons need to be tested, the gunners need to be trained, and they all need to be fired, so the sound of cannons is still constant.
As a personal soldier in the garrison palace, how could he not know that the tiger flag casts cannons here in Zhaojiayu?
Huang Chongxiao asked, "Dare you ever heard the sound of cannons along the way to Zhaojiayu?"
"Of course..." Halfway through the speech, the guard was stunned for a moment, and then said to Huang An beside him, "Sir, we really didn't hear the sound of cannons along the way."
You should know that the sound of cannons can be heard very far. If there is a sound of cannons along the way from Lingqiu City, it is impossible to hear it.
Huang An ignored the personal guard and said to Huang Chong: "I don't care whether there is any cannon sound or not, now I suspect that you are casting cannons privately. I will go in and search now and ask your people to get out of the way. Otherwise, I will capture you all back to the yamen for assaulting the official."
Huang Chong smiled and said, "Since the adults want to search, Caomin naturally dare not stop him. Please, sir!"
As he said that, he raised his hand and made a gesture of asking for help.
The soldiers with the tiger-shaped flag outside the door made way open the door to the cannonyard, but the musket in their hands was still not put down, and the fuse was still burning.
Not only that, the tiger-shaped flag soldiers who followed Huang Chong out of the cannonyard were all holding weapons and staring at Huang An and his personal soldiers with a look of alert.
"Sir, can we get in?" A personal guard next to Huang An asked hesitantly.
If you want to enter the artillery yard, you have to dismount and walk in, but they don’t know how many people with the tiger flags are inside the artillery yard. Moreover, the tiger flags are always famous. If an ambush is set up inside, it will be difficult for these dozens of people to escape alive with their legs.
Huang Chong showed hesitation on his face.
If the evidence of the tiger flag casting cannon was found, the tiger flag would definitely not escape a serious crime of treason. When the dog was desperate, it would inevitably kill them to silence them.
"Mr. Huang, please." Huang Chong urged.
At this moment, someone in the carriage behind said, "Mr. Huang, go in and search, you are an official, and they dare not do anything to you."
Huang Chongming smiled and said, "The people in the car are right. Killing officials is an unforgivable crime. How dare the grass people do such a thing? So Lord Huang just feels at ease to go in and search."
"Go!" said another word from the person in the car.
Huang An understood that Aide Zhang in the car was urging him to go in and search.
He knew that if he retreated now, he would offend the governor, and Li Kaiyang knew that this matter would not protect him. After all, he did this matter on his back, which was equivalent to betraying Li Kaiyang and turning to the governor's place. General Zhang from the General's Office was offended by him because of the tiger flag. Now that he offended the governor again, Datong would have no place to stand.
Thinking of this, he bit his back teeth and walked towards the gate of the cannonyard.
Just as he was about to step into the cannon yard, he suddenly stopped and said to the personal soldiers beside him: "Take a few people in and search. If you encounter something, remember to warn in advance."
The personal soldier opened his mouth and finally sighed: "Yes, I will take people in and search."
The personal soldiers around Huang An divided into two teams. One team entered the artillery yard to search, while the other team stayed outside to protect Huang An.
Seeing this, Huang Chong sneered.
Huang An showed embarrassment on his face, knowing that he was showing timidity, but compared with his life, a little face was nothing.
What's more, as long as the tiger flag is destroyed, not only will no one remember his ugly behavior today, but he will be praised for eliminating the harm of the Ming Dynasty.
"Mr. Huang, really don't go in and take a look? Don't worry, there are no ambush inside." Huang Chongxiao asked, standing in front of the door.
Huang An snorted coldly, knowing that the other party was ridiculing him for being brave.
Not long after, all the soldiers of the garrison who entered the artillery yard to search were withdrawn from it.
Huang An hurriedly asked, "How is it? Has it been searched?"
The guard who was walking in the front shook his head and said, "Sir, this is an ordinary cannonyard, and there is no prohibited thing."
"Impossible." Huang An said unbelievable, "Everyone knows that this is a place where the tiger flag casts cannons. How could it be that there was no search? Didn't you say it just now, this is a cannon yard."
The personal soldier said with a bitter face: "It's right that the artillery yard is, but it's full of firecrackers, and there are no cannons that the adults are looking for."
Huang An's face changed and he murmured to himself: "How could this happen? It shouldn't be! Even if someone delivers a letter to them in advance, he will have to leave clues. It is impossible to hide everything so quickly."
"Sir, it's true. There are really no cannons inside, they are all firecrackers." The soldier smiled bitterly.
Even he was very puzzled. This place was obviously a cannon field with the tiger flag, and the sound of cannons was always constant, but this time they came over, but they didn't even find the shadow of the cannon.
"It's you, you hid the cannon, right?" Huang An stared at Huang Chong who was standing in front of the cannon yard with vicious eyes.
Hearing this, Huang Chong's face sank and said coldly: "Mr. Huang, you can't talk nonsense. If you don't believe it, you can go in and search it yourself. But if you frame our tiger flag and cast cannons, I believe that General Zhang will give me the tiger flag and make justice."
Huang An's heart sank.
