I'm a detective for Dongchang

December 32nd in the [-]nd year of Taihe, it was sunny, the morning sun was very bright, not hot, and it was warm and pleasant when it shone on people. It seems that these days are the most suitable for going to the suburbs for spring, not to mention that A comfortable freehand brushwork is that the wild flowers of all colors blooming all over the mountains and fields look fascinating. No, early in the morning, the Wuliting Pavilion outside Jingzhou City was crowded with people, not only people from Jingzhou All civil and military officials came, even the fathers and villagers also came. Of course, the big guys came here not for an outing, but to send His Highness Prince Jing and General Yuan back to Beijing.

There were a lot of people, and the excitement was very lively, but it had nothing to do with Qi Yuchen. Most of them came to see Yuan Yanxi off. Qi Yuchen couldn't help but feel a little ashamed when he saw the crying scene. Since Qi Yuchen was appointed King Jing and took charge of Jingzhou, he really had no experience in dealing with civil affairs. Although he did many good things to benefit the people, most of them were out of his own desire to get rich He had never really thought about the people personally, and every time he thought about it, Qi Yuchen couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed and panicked. In the carriage, come to see what is out of sight, and make a wish in my heart, one day...

Anyway, someday.

Finally, when he was able to set off, Qi Yuchen was already suffocated, and didn't want to stay for a moment, so he hurriedly ordered to open the road, not caring that he was still 'injured', and rushed all the way, stupefied. A group of Habayashi Army officers and soldiers who followed him complained, but he didn't want to pay attention to it.It's been more than a year since I left Beijing. I just went through a big battle, so I naturally wanted to go to Beijing to claim credit in front of my father. How can those people who have the leisure to be considerate of others finish it in only five days? Even the lunch break was only given once, and by the time the sun set, thousands of people from the whole army had rushed to Lin County.Seeing that the sun was about to set, he arranged to camp at Yuan Yanxi's suggestion.

But those Habayashi Army soldiers who have been exhausted for a long time have to be busy with setting up camp on an empty stomach, and they often scold Prince Jing in their stomachs, but well, wait until the "Shangji Company" sends them As soon as the food and drink were served, the group of old men and soldiers immediately changed their temperament and praised the prince's generosity in unison.

Qi Yuchen and Yuan Yanxi had just had a drink together, thinking about the eunuch Hu Lin's thought-provoking words, but they were shocked when they heard the shouts outside the tent one after another. Seeing that the barracks were in total chaos, the direction of the stables in the northwest corner was already in flames, and the camp was full of figures scurrying around like headless flies, my heart sank suddenly.

"What's going on?" Seeing that the guards outside the tent were also in a mess, Qi Yuchen immediately lowered his face and snorted coldly.

"Your Highness, the stables are on fire and the camp has been bombed!" Seeing that the prince was angry, the captain of the personal guard rushed out to report loudly.

Yuan Yanxi's heart moved, knowing that things were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface, and he didn't care to say more, and ordered loudly: "Blow the horn, order the whole army to go to the fire immediately, thunder, hold the big tent, there is no chance for the superintendent to fight the fire." Order, no one is allowed to take a step closer, and those who disobey the order will be killed without mercy!"

There are so many strange things in war, and anything can happen on the battlefield. As for victory or defeat, it is more common. However, if it is caused by one's own bombing of the camp, the disastrous defeat is undoubtedly the last thing the generals want to face. Often the larger the scale The more the army is afraid of encountering such a bombing camp that does not fight and chaos, even if Wudi takes advantage of the chaos to attack, the morale of one's own army will be severely hit.

There must be something strange here!After Yuan Yanxi gave the order to blow the trumpet to gather, he looked at the stable with a dark face, and his heart was cold.

Qi Yuchen was on the side, seeing Yuan Yanxi's calmness, he let go of the heavy pressure in his heart.

He has never encountered bombing camps, but he has heard a lot about bombing camps. He knows that bombing camps usually happen in the dead of night, and at this time the whole army is having a banquet, and the wine has just been drunk. There is no such thing as drunkenness at all, and it stands to reason that there is no possibility of insiders triggering the bombing of the camp. Now that the trumpet has sounded, there are very few soldiers who have heard the order to gather in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the chaos in the barracks is still the same , Shouts and roars rang out, and from time to time there were one or two howls of the wounded, and the fire was getting bigger and bigger. With the help of the wind, the fire gradually spread towards the camp of the Chinese army.

"Retreat!" Seeing that the situation in the southwest was completely out of control, Yuan Yanxi immediately issued a withdrawal order without hesitation. Fortunately, the four hidden guards and personal guards around him went to accompany those Habayashi soldiers for a banquet. Most of them guarded around the big tent. Because of the fire, although they retreated in a panic, they were still orderly.In this chaotic army, once there is a demonstration effect, the soldiers who were originally in a state of chaos immediately followed behind Yuan Yanxi's men and horses, desperately detoured to the place where the fire was slightly less intense, and fought hard all the way. Go to the camp.

The fire is getting bigger and bigger, the smoke is billowing, and the air is so hot that it is difficult to breathe in this kind of fire, let alone find the way forward with difficulty. The men who rolled out of the sea of ​​blood were also a little flustered at this time. Only Yuan Yanxi's three secret guards remained calm, forming a circle with the other guards, protecting Qi Yuchen and Yuan Yanxi in the middle, and arduously Trekking in the sea of ​​flames, exhausted all the efforts, finally reached the fence by the camp, all the soldiers rushed up, overturned the wooden fence to the ground, rushed out in a swarm, and ran a long distance before they dared Stopping, looking at the spectacular fire in the barracks, everyone was terrified.

It's strange, why did they set a fire, but there is no follow-up method, what is going on?

Although he had safely escaped from the dangerous situation, Yuan Yanxi was not relieved by this, on the contrary, he was full of doubts.

In his opinion, this fire definitely did not start out of thin air, but the question is what is the purpose of setting this fire?It's not for the sake of looking good, is it?The left and right were only coming towards Prince Jing himself, or they were coming towards themselves, but in such a chaotic situation, no one shot. Isn't this a strange thing?
"Your Highness, the number of people has been counted. Except for ten people who were burned to death in the stable, there were more than [-] people injured, all caused by overcrowding. Except for three people who were seriously injured, the rest are all fine." Chen Liang, the guard captain of the Yulin Army, strode up to Qi Yuchen and reported respectfully.

Soon, Lei Ming, who came back again, also reported: "Factory supervisor, this fire came in a strange way."

"The spies came to report that the factory superintendent's tent was completely burned, and the inside of the tent was messy. It seemed that someone had flipped it over."

Sure enough, did he come for himself?
It is not without reason that the ancients were afraid of fire.
