Lin Yuan was thinking about it, and Jiang Huayong asked, "Shuai Lin, is there anything else you want to know?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "It seems that we can only go to Gansu to find out more about Long Tengfei." So Lin Yuan said, "I have nothing more to ask."

Jiang Huayong then said: "Lin Yuan, didn't you say that you can make those farmers live a better life without having to work hard? What can you do?"

Lin Yuan thought for a while and said: "The nearby villages have been looted, and the rooms are empty. I see that there is a lot of wheat in the wheat fields that have not been harvested. I think it is better to give them land and let them live around Fengxiang Mansion. Come on, they will be naturalized in Fengxiang Mansion in the future, and when Gansu is pacified, they can go back if they want to go home."

Jiang Huayong nodded, and then asked: "Shuai Lin, what do you want to explain to the court?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way, you can go to discuss the land arrangement with General Sun immediately, but it's getting late now, you go and talk to him first, we can arrange it tomorrow specific things."

Jiang Huayong nodded and went out, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "The land allocated now is all unowned wasteland, and the Qing government should not fear it. It will be difficult to divide the land of big landlords in the future!" Thinking of those unowned wastelands , Lin Yuan muttered in his heart again: "Who killed the people in those villages? Maybe they were soldiers who took advantage of the chaos, rebels or bandits, anyway, it's hard to know."

Seeing that it was late, Lin Yuan fell asleep without taking off his clothes, thinking: "Wan Qing is too shy to come to see me." He fell asleep in a daze after thinking about it. How long did it take, suddenly there was a rush of gongs and drums in his ears, Lin Yuan opened his eyes, saw that it was already dawn, looked at his watch, and found that it was seven o'clock in the morning, only heard the noise of people outside, Lin Yuan rushed Called outside: "Is anyone there? What happened?"

A soldier opened the curtain and came in, saying: "Marshal Lin, a battalion commander from the opposite barracks suddenly rushed over with people, and many people went to see it."

Lin Yuan asked, "What are they here for?"

The soldier replied: "Shuai Lin, my subordinates are ordered to protect you, and they dare not leave the camp an inch, so they haven't gone out to see it yet."

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Then I'll go and see what happened?" So Lin Yuan got up and came out, and met Shen Wanqing at the gate, and the two of them followed the crowd to the gate of the camp, and saw the open space at the gate of the camp. , Yuan Shikai's soldiers were confronting Jiang Huayong's soldiers. Behind Jiang Huayong's soldiers stood a group of glaring peasants.

Lin Yuan squeezed to the front of the crowd, and saw at a glance that the officer under Yuan Shikai was Madman Ning. Lin Yuan walked up to him and smiled, and said, "Madman Ning, what are you doing here?"

Crazy Ning pointed at Jiang Huayong's subordinates, and said angrily: "Shuai Lin, didn't you stop fighting? Their people actually attacked our people!" Then he waved to the back and said loudly: "Push up!" Two soldiers came pushing a large cart. The cart was covered with a white cloth, and three human figures appeared under the white cloth. Lin Yuan stepped forward and lifted the white cloth, only to see three dead bodies underneath.

Lin Yuan asked Crazy Ning: "Are you so sure that their people did it?"

Crazy Ning replied: "Didn't they do it? Could it be that our own people did it?"

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "Maybe it's your own people who started the conflict?" Although Lin Yuan thought of this sentence, he didn't say it, because he knew that once this sentence came out, it would definitely annoy Madman Ning and his subordinates. Can't do it!Lin Yuan looked at the corpse and asked, "Tell me, where was the corpse found?"

Crazy Ning replied: "It was found on the east side of our barracks. These three soldiers were out of the camp on business, and they didn't come back after a while. We sent people to look for them and found their bodies."

Lin Yuan said: "The east side of the barracks is far away from the peasant army's camp. How could the peasant army come to the east side of your barracks? It doesn't make sense to kill only three people when they reach the east side."

Crazy Ning sneered and said: "There is nothing unreasonable. I think they just want revenge. If we can't beat them on the battlefield, we will attack secretly, or when the two sides cease fighting. What kind of ability!"

The people opposite Crazy Ning stopped doing it as soon as they heard it, and shouted one after another: "Who do you think can't beat you?" Hui Hui said: "Everyone stop arguing, I don't think people from the Peasant Army and Jiang Huayong killed him!"

Crazy Ning said angrily: "Lin Yuan, why do you say that they didn't kill people, show the evidence! Otherwise, you are deliberately favoring them, and my brothers and I will not agree!" As soon as the voice fell, everyone was in unison. He yelled, "That's right, no!"

Lin Yuan stretched out his hands and made a gesture of pressing down. Everyone quieted down. Lin Yuan pointed to the wound on the corpse and said to Madman Ning: "Look at his wound, it is located in the throat, and the rest is intact. It is obviously fatal. Right at the throat, the incision is smooth, and the knife used by the murderer is obviously very sharp! Look at the peasant army's knife again, is there any such sharp one?"

Crazy Ning said disdainfully: "Based on this, we can judge that they didn't kill people? They have tens of thousands of people, who knows how many knives they have? Who can guarantee that there is no sharp one in them?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "If the knife can't explain the problem, the wound can always explain it. Didn't you find that these people shed very little blood?"

Crazy Ning looked at the corpse carefully and found that there was indeed very little blood on the clothes, so he asked, "What does the very little blood mean?"

Lin Yuan said: "There are human blood in the throat. You should understand that once the blood in the throat is severed, the blood can be sprayed far away, but there is no blood on this person, which means that the knife did not cut the blood at all!"

Crazy Ning asked: "How did he die if it wasn't cut in the blood?"

Lin Yuan pointed to the wound and said, "Although the blood vessel was not cut off, the trachea was cut with a knife. The trachea and the blood vessel were very close together. Only the trachea was cut off but not the blood vessel. Do you think there will be such a group of peasants in the army?" Are you an expert?"

Crazy Ning snorted coldly and said, "What if there is a martial arts master hiding among them?"

Lin Yuan frowned, and said: "Which rich family can a person with this skill not become a martial arts instructor? At the very least, he can be a bodyguard in a bodyguard agency, and he can gain a foothold in the capital. "

Crazy Ning also felt that what Lin Yuan said was reasonable, and he couldn't argue with it, so he said, "Then who do you think killed him?"

Lin Yuan said: "Whoever killed it has to be investigated slowly. The murderer is very capable, and I'm afraid it will not be easy to find out! You'd better tell your soldiers to be more careful."

Crazy Ning didn't say much, and led them away with a wave of his hand. Lin Yuan wondered: "Who is this murderer?" At this moment, Shen Wanqing came up and said to him: "You just saw clearly Was it true that the knife only cut the trachea, not the blood vessels?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Of course, I won't be wrong!"

Shen Wanqing frowned and said, "If that's the case, I guess who the murderer is!"
