Red Mansion Soldiers

Chapter 285 Boom

Both warring parties lost their will to fight, so the small courtyard that was bombed into a dilapidated building was immediately taken over by the Karasuma family soldiers who rushed to the battlefield next.

After a flurry of excitement, both Idel and other Mongol people hiding in the dilapidated house, as well as the Xiuyi people who jumped over the wall and ran out, were all found. They were clearly divided into two groups, sitting cross-legged on the ground dejectedly.

"How dare you smuggle artillery?"

Karasuma Ka, who was sitting on a high chair that he had moved from somewhere, had a strange look on his face and tapped the three artillery pieces found on the ground with his fan.
To be precise, it was two lumps of iron and scattered fragments, and only one complete cannon remained.

In addition, there are two barrels of gunpowder that have been moved to the corner far away.

"But why did you start fighting?" Wu Wanfa scratched his temples with a fan, "Tsk, forget it, it's just a case of dog biting dog due to uneven distribution of the spoils, so just leave two or three alive and kill the rest! "

"Wei!" The soldiers clasped their fists in agreement, turned around and drew out their steel knives to kill people.
"Wait a minute, save someone under the sword!"

"Don't do anything yet, we're on our own!"

Two loud shouts suddenly came from the crowd dressed as Han Chinese. Wu Wanfa frowned and looked over: "What? Are you still reasonable about reselling artillery? Also, who is with you?"

"You still want to catch Lao Shi?" Karasumafa sneered, and he didn't know how to make up a more reliable reason.

Suddenly there was a loud roar outside the courtyard wall, followed by a large group of people wearing bamboo hats and dressed like Jianghu Jie jumped up to the wall and squatted down. The shocked Karasuma family soldiers drew their long knives. Be alert
Wow!

Although I am only a fifth-level guard, he is also the eldest son of the current Datong Chief Military Officer.

"Then what if what they said is true?" An erratic voice came, and Karasuma Fa sneered.

"You're still lying to me! If you really are embroidering clothes, then why don't you report to the General Military Yamen that you want to work here?!" Wu Wanfa was furious. At this time, you still want to lie to me!

Wu Wanfa quickly turned around and looked in the direction where the voice came from: "Didn't you invite me to play? If it weren't for you, how would I have encountered such a bad thing? Come out!"

"only!!"

"Wei!" The soldier beside him promised, handed his knife to his companion, jogged a few steps and came to the crowd, bent down and took off the man's waistband, turned it over and took a look.
"Hiss--" The soldier took a breath of cold air, quickly ran back to Karasuba, and presented his belt card with both hands.

"Sir, he is really General Cui He and Cui! His humble position is the Baihu officer of Xiuyi Taiyuan Qianhu Office. This is my token!" Xiuyi Baihu sighed inwardly when he saw that Cui He's badge was not working well. But he still stood up decisively and exposed his identity.
Alas. That's all. If your identity is exposed, at worst, you won't be working in the field anymore.

"Really? Haha, if Lao Shi is really guilty, then I will eat five kilograms." Wu Wanfa suddenly stopped and jumped up from his chair: "Jiang Huan, get out of here!"

"Young boys, come and show off to Karasuma Guards!"

An arm tied with an arm guard suddenly stretched out and grabbed it at the edge. He grabbed hard with his five fingers. He heard a cold snort and a black figure rushed up.
"Ouch, fuck me!"

Karasumafa reached out and took the waist badge, and saw the five characters "Martial General Cui" written on it. Karasumafa's eyes widened for a moment, but he seemed to have thought of something, and the solemnity on his face instantly dissipated, replaced by A fooled anger!
"Fuck you, you, a caravan man who smuggles artillery, dare to pretend to be a fifth-grade general of the imperial court? How brave!"

"I will come out if you ask me to. Wouldn't that make me lose face?"

"Because the one we want to catch is Shi Bingyuan!" Cui He smiled bitterly, now it's better, even his own mission target has been exposed.

joke!

Who is Lao Shi? That was the dignified general who helped the Mabao garrison. In a place like this where military control was implemented, that was a Bailihou who was comparable to a county magistrate, a local emperor!
Just do a little trick. If you create a clever name, you can live a very comfortable life. Do you want to get involved in this kind of brainless business?

Suddenly there was a loud noise, and a pile of broken bricks and stones on the edge of the ruins was suddenly lifted up into the sky. It shocked everyone, thinking that there was another gunpowder explosion.
Looking closely, I saw a thick wooden cover three feet square suddenly lifted off the ground. If you don't look carefully, it is almost the same color as the dust on the ground.

Wu Wanfa's complexion darkened. As someone of his age, Jiang Huan had made great achievements and had already moved to the right to be the deputy commander-in-chief of Datong, but he only had a fifth-grade garrison officer. This made him very unhappy with his arrogance.

"Well said!" Jiang Huan's somewhat angry voice came out again, "Since you want me to come out so much, I can't refute your Karasuma guard's face."

"You are really one of my own! My lord, you can let someone see my badge!" A man suddenly stood up in the crowd. Although his body was covered in dust and his hair was messy, his face was surprisingly not stained with dust.
"Huh?" Karasumafa tilted his head and pointed with his fan: "Go, show me his badge."

There was only a "bang" sound, and the black figure seemed to hit his heel on the thick wooden cover. After a curse, the whole person fell back into the cellar again.
Snapped!
Cui He slapped himself in the face, grabbed his face and pulled it down. He looked up in pain and rolled his eyes.

Behind him, the embroidered man shrank his neck sincerely.
Soon, the arm with the armguard appeared on the ground again, but this time the figure did not do any fancy things, but crawled out of the cellar honestly.

"It hurts so much." The figure wearing a bamboo hat muttered in a low voice.

After untying the bamboo hat tied around his chin, the man grabbed the edge of the bamboo hat and threw it away. A face that most people present appeared in front of everyone!

"Huhahahaha! Karasumafa, do you ever miss growing old? Ah!"

A slight breeze blew the bamboo hat back and hit Jiang Huan right in the eye, causing him to stagger.
"Tsk!" Wu Wanfa couldn't help but laugh out loud. At this age, it was the first time for him to see Jiang Huan so unlucky.
"Fuck, something clashed with a certain house today. It's not appropriate to go out." Jiang Huan cursed secretly and rubbed his eyes to relieve the pain.

Although the person involved was relatively unlucky, this operation really shocked most of the people present. It was an eye-opener today.
The pain in his eye sockets was getting better. Jiang Huan also put down his hand, shook his head vigorously, and finally focused his eyes on Karasuma Fa again.

"Xiao Hui, I testify that he is indeed Cui He."

"Don't call me Xiao Hui!" Wu Wanfa subconsciously said something back to him. He suddenly froze for a moment, as if he had figured something out, and his face gradually twisted: "Damn it, you said you were watching the fun, did you come to see me? "

"You are called Karasuma Hui." Jiang Huan grinned, "Of course it's not about your own liveliness. To be precise, it's about the excitement of your Karasuma family and Shi Bingyuan, who is a member of the Karasuma family."

Cutting, in Xianbei language, means gray.

The transliteration of the name chosen by this family sounds good, but once you get into the meaning, it seems very perfunctory.

As for people of the same age who grew up with Wu Wanfa since childhood, Jiang Huan naturally knew what his name meant, so since he knew the meaning of his name, he never called Wu Wanfa by any other name. I always call him "Xiao Hui".

As for Karasuma Hezhen, the current chief military officer of Datong Town, his name is translated as Karasuma Thirty.

It is said that the first generation of Pingcheng Bo, who is the grandfather of Karasuma Hezhen and the grandfather of Karasuma, played a leaf trick with Jiang Huan's grandfather when his daughter-in-law was giving birth, and defeated Jiang Huan's grandfather and won thirty taels of gold. , it happened that the young man came over to report at this time, Daoxi said that his daughter-in-law had given birth to a big fat boy!

Double happiness!

When the old man was happy, he planned to commemorate these two happy events in life forever, so with a wave of his hand, he personally decided on the name of his great grandson - Karasuma Hezhen, whose nickname was Ah Liudun.

The total number is thirty taels of gold.

And Karasuma Hezhen himself also inherited their family's naming heritage. On the day Karasuma was born, he hunted a gray wolf with his bare hands outside the city. His wife gave birth that night. In order to commemorate his bravery, he gave him a big gift. The son was named Fa, and his nickname was Chinu. Collective name - gray wolf.

As for Jiang Huan's own nightmare, the name of the legendary Karasuma family's three-hundred-pound eldest daughter, Karasuma Hui, and Karasuma's half-sister's name has no special meaning. It's just that the old lady has had enough of Karasuma. The result of rebellion against family naming traditions.

Hearing this, Wu Wanfa's face gradually darkened, and he turned to look at Shi Bingyuan, who had quietly walked to the corner, with an evil look on his face.

"Is what he said true?" Wu Wanfa asked through gritted teeth.

"S-Sir." Shi Bingyuan wanted to say something, but at this point it was useless.

Now that Xiuyi has reached Zhumabao and has dealt with the buyer, no matter what excuses he makes, it will be of no use.

"I have no intention of defending myself, but before being escorted back to the capital," Shi Bingyuan raised his head and looked at Cui He and Xiu Yi Baihu with complex eyes, "General Cui, and this Xiu Yi."

"Baihu." Xiuyi Baihu spoke very quickly, as if someone would recognize him if he spoke too much.

"Ah, Baihu Xiuyi," Shi Bingyuan smiled helplessly, "Can you tell me where it was exposed?"

"I don't know about that." Cui He smacked his lips and turned his attention to Baiyi Huihu.

Hundreds of households with embroidered clothes were silent.

However, as the eyes of Wu Wanfa, Shi Bingyuan, the surviving Mongol people, and even Jiang Huan all focused on him, especially when he found that Jiang Huan looked at him more and more sharply, Baihu Xiuyi let out a long sigh. , reluctantly accepted his fate
That’s all, it’s a blessing, not a curse, but it’s a curse that cannot be avoided.
"It was the relationship between Wei Chen, a doctor in the Qing Li Division of Yu Heng of the Ministry of Industry, and the Luo family of Yangquan who was exposed."

"Ha!" Jiang Huan suddenly screamed strangely. After hearing this familiar and unforgettable voice, Jiang Huan finally recognized him with his face covered in gray. "It is indeed your kid. Even if he turned into gray, I would recognize him!"

"Alas, Shen Hong, a humble embroidered guard, pays his respects to Mr. Jiang!"

"Hehehehe" Jiang Huan laughed proudly, "No gifts, no gifts, Lao Shen, we can be considered old acquaintances, right?"

"Yeah." Shen Hong smiled sadly.

Isn't that right? We have to meet once a month, and even twice a month. Each time, the emperor asked him to lead someone to beat Jiang Huan. He didn't even change people. He was always beaten by his colleagues and boss. They are called "beating hundreds of households"!

"Oh, this time you are in my hands!" Jiang Huan was extremely excited. In the past, the embroidered clothes who always came to criticize him were doing his job after all, and it was not easy for him to take revenge, but now it was Shen Hong who asked for help. myself, um
"Old Shen."

"The humble job is here"

"I saved you, right?" Jiang Huan narrowed his eyes and laughed maliciously.

"Yes, Mr. Jiang, you saved us." Shen Hong nodded numbly.

"Okay, it's good that you know. Things will be settled later, so don't leave."

".become."

After getting the answer he wanted, Jiang Huan nodded with satisfaction, then turned to look at Shi Bingyuan.

"Come on, go ahead and tell your story."

The corners of Shi Bingyuan's mouth twitched, and he was full of old jokes and didn't know where to start.

No, shouldn’t I be the protagonist today?

Shouldn't it be that I, a key node in the smuggling network, was arrested, and you, the righteous partners, bitterly denounced me, a villain who smuggled top-secret weapons, for not being a son of a man and for embarking on the path of illegality and crime?

"Mr. Jiang, I became a military commander at the age of 30, and I successfully became a disciple of Karasuma's family. Naturally, I have a bright future and don't bother with smuggling.

But the only son of my eldest brother who died young, my only nephew was spoiled and spoiled by me. He ate, drank, prostituted, gambled, was tricked and owed a lot of money, and was detained. Did you watch him being sold into the black mines?
Therefore, I can only be coerced into smuggling." Putting aside the endless thoughts in his heart, Shi Bingyuan told the reason for his participation in smuggling with a painful expression on his face.

"Then why didn't you tell your family?" Wu Wanfa glared at Shi Bingyuan with hatred.

"I don't have the face to say that." Shi Bingyuan smiled sadly, "Now that the matter has come to this, I have no face to face the boss because of my humble position, and even more shameless to face my ancestors! Mr. Jiang?"

"Say." Jiang Huan raised her chin at him.

"It makes you laugh. Although I, Mr. Shi, am a military general, I am actually very afraid of pain. I am afraid of Lingchi's 3,600 swords in my humble position!" Shi Bingyuan slowly knelt down and hugged the person with his hands. There was a gunpowder keg in the corner. Everyone was so shocked that they drew their weapons and guarded him with fearful expressions on their faces.

"It's normal. I'm also terribly afraid of pain. It would be weird if I wasn't afraid of pain." Jiang Huan didn't pay attention to Shi Bingyuan's actions at all, and even nodded to him in agreement.

"But I don't have the courage to embark on the road to hell, so Mr. Jiang, can you fulfill your humble position?"

"No problem, but you have to make it clear who bought the gun first." Jiang Huan agreed happily.

He didn't want to talk nonsense with these Mongol people. Asking questions would waste too much time.

"That's right!" Shi Bingyuan nodded in agreement, "That's right, this group of people is a small tribe under Chahar who always wants to regain the Great Mongolian Kingdom. It doesn't matter what they call it, but their The superior family is from the tribe of Angqin Zasak County King of Tumut, and his superior family is from the Zasak Tu tribe.

I don’t know exactly who held the humble position, but it may be the one in the far west called Qigeqitu County Prince. The subsequent positions were incompetent and I couldn’t find out.”

When the Mongol leader Idel on the ground heard this, he looked at Shi Bingyuan with horror on his face. He had no idea that Shi Bingyuan had secretly found out to this extent!

"It doesn't matter, you've done a good job." Jiang Huan whispered in a rare voice, "The facts you investigated have really saved the court a lot of effort. So, do you have any other wishes?"

Jiang Huan took out the gun from his waist. It was a gift from his brother Jia Hui for his birthday last year.

"It is not a pity that a nephew who holds a low position should die, but my grandnephew who is only two months old is really innocent."

"Sure, I understand." Jiang Huan nodded, "Xiao Hui, did you hear that?"

"I heard it, the family will make arrangements." Wu Wanfa sighed softly, "Shi Bingyuan, the artillery smuggler, accidentally touched gunpowder during the arrest and was accidentally killed."

"Humble job. Thank you sir!"

Shi Bingyuan's head hit the powder keg hard, and the sound scared everyone around him and made their hearts skip a beat.
Seeing that Shi Bingyuan stopped talking, Jiang Huan curled his lips and raised his gun to point it at the gunpowder barrel.
Boom!
