Weird Three Kingdoms

Chapter 1747 Who Says Who Believes Who Is True

Among the piles of weapons presented, apart from the ordinary weapons such as short knives and spears, longbows and short armors, the strangeness that Fei Qian could see at a glance was that among the piles of weapons, And three crossbows.

The crossbow is not as simple as a bow and arrow, because the craftsmanship is more complicated, and the material of the consumables is not as simple as a bow.As for bows, the simplest bamboo bows can be used, but crossbows are different. General materials are difficult to meet the standards and requirements, and only specific workshops can make them.

The three crossbows in front of me are very familiar...

Fei Qian asked someone to bring the crossbow, and then skillfully disassembled the crossbow. Turning to the inside, he saw the special mark on the inside of the crossbow.

"This is Huang's crossbow..." Fei Qian's voice was a little low.

Because Fei Qian has improved many parts of the crossbow, the crossbow produced by himself is somewhat different from the original crossbow of the big man, and cannot be used universally.At the same time, the Han Dynasty started from the time of Wang Mang. Perhaps it was because Wang Mang himself felt a little uneasy, so he implemented the policy of banning soldiers. Manufacture, do not know how to manufacture.

If it weren't for the old man of the Huang family who had craftsmen in his hands and the technology preserved from the previous Spring and Autumn Period, he might not have been able to climb smoothly from holding a crossbow to a crossbow and a strong crossbow...

Therefore, these two or three strong crossbows are obviously undoubtedly leaked from Huang's workshop, but the question is, how did they get out?Or where did it come from?
"This is a six-stone crossbow..." Fei Qian put down the crossbow, hooked the crossbow string, looked at the crossbow arm again, and said, "Looking at the traces on it, it seems that it has been used for a while, not a new one. The crossbow... and there is no serial number on the crossbow, it must have been produced by Yan Ping at least two years ago..."

Pang Tong nodded silently.

"Which group of people is it?" Fei Qian asked.

Pang Tong lowered his head and said, "It's the group in the city..."

Perhaps because crossbows are more difficult to hide and carry than bows, or for some other reason, there are not many crossbows for thieves. Even Shi Huan, Li Tong and others only have bows and no crossbows.

However, such a situation gave Fei Qian a headache.In this way, Shi Huan and Li Tong are two completely different groups of people in the city, so do these two groups get along with each other, or do they not know each other at all?
Fei Qian turned over the old crossbow machine and looked at it. There were not only rusty bronze stains on it, but also some blood stains.

"These two groups of people..." Fei Qian asked, "Is it true that they are not together?"

Pang Tong said: "A certain torturer questioned Li Tong and Li Wenda, but he didn't know about it... a certain person felt that if they were sent here and there, there would be some handover. The need to cover for these dead..."

Fei Qian was silent for a moment, then nodded.

This is indeed the case, but it is precisely because of this that the background of the group of people who died in this city is even more strange.

If you look at it in terms of time, at least this group of people has been lurking in the city for half a year, and the landlord who had the most frequent contact with this group of people has also died...

The clue in front of him is this relatively conspicuous Huang's crossbow.

It's not a new crossbow, so it's hard to find out.

After Feiqian entered Chang'an, the workshop project gradually expanded, and gradually completed the entire process from a single workshop to multiple workshops, and the final assembly was carried out in Chang'an. Therefore, from the third year of Yanping, basically all the weapons Important parts are numbered.

The crossbow in Fei Qian's hand did not have a number.

Fei Qian disassembled the other two crossbows, and finally found a row of numbers on one of the crossbows. After looking at it, he pondered for a while, handed it to Pang Tong, and said, "This is Yan Ping's three-year... Let's find out which workshop this number belongs to..."

Of course, these crossbows may also be weapons left on the battlefield, and then picked up by someone else, but what if they were not left behind on the battlefield?

Although the crossbow machine is simple to use, its structure is more complicated than that of ordinary bows. If you are not familiar with crossbows, let alone dismantling them, you may not be able to maintain them properly, or they may be broken in a few clicks. It is also a common thing.

These three crossbows can still be used after such a long time, and they were even brought to Chang'an, which is definitely not something ordinary people can do...

Fei Qian looked at the weapons under the hall, seeing the blood stains still remaining on the weapons, and suddenly felt a little cold on his body. This feeling made Fei Qian feel very uneasy.When Fei Qian was assassinated for the first time in Chang'an, he didn't seem to have such a sense of insecurity at all. Even when he heard that there were thieves hiding this time, he didn't feel much uneasy. But when Fei Qian saw the three yellow When he was shooting the crossbow, he suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, which was hard to calm down.

The residual leaves on the branches in the yard seemed to be unbearable to the cold wind any longer. They leaped without hesitation, jumped down from the place where they were born, and then fell to the ground unsteadily, and were swept by the wind again, whirring. Then it went further and further away, leaving its original location, the previous soil.

Fei Qian suddenly understood why Cao Cao wanted to "kill people in his dreams"...

I don't know how long it has passed, Pang Tong rushed back again with sweat all over his head, hesitated for a while, and said: "Report to my lord...this number...can't be found..."

Fei Qian frowned: "What?"

It's not that Fei Qian didn't hear Pang Tong's words clearly, but that Pang Tong didn't find this serial number, which means that there is only one possibility - this crossbow was produced in the Huang's workshop in Jingxiang, and only the Huang's in Jingxiang The things in the workshop are the same as those in Feiqian's place, but the numbering is independent in Jingxiang, and has not been recorded in Guanzhong.

After Feiqian breathed a sigh of relief, he couldn't help but raise his heart again.

Don't worry if it's my workshop here, so although I can't completely guarantee that the characters on my side are all right, but at least they don't have much to do with it, so I can still rest assured, and the part I mentioned is not under my direct control What happened to the Jingxiang part?
If it's just selling bows and crossbows, it's not a big problem. After all, there are not just one or two people who are obsessed with money. Many people in ancient and modern China and foreign countries are like this. Seeing the money, they secretly took the things in the workshop and sold them outside. go.

If this is the case, continue to investigate and find Shuoshu, that's it, but if it's other factors...

"Jingxiang..." Fei Qian thought of another possibility, pondered for a while, and said to Pang Tong, "I'd better trouble Lao Shiyuan to go and find Mr. Liu... Let him identify the group of people in the city Shiyuan, you should know how to say it, right?"

It is also possible that Jing Xiang's people came to rescue Liu Qi...

Pang Tong rolled his eyes, cupped his hands and said, "If someone knows, I will definitely let Mrs. Liu talk endlessly!"

"In addition, send people to the courtyard of this group of people to inspect and inquire. In half a year, some people should have seen it..." Fei Qian added.

Pang Tong agreed, then slowly exited the hall, turned around and left.

... (＾＾●) ...

Hearing about the turmoil in the city, Liu Qi felt that he shouldn't be gloating, but he couldn't help it. He wandered around in his room happily, holding back a smile, "Yes! How can a hypocrite be able to deceive the world?!"

There are still some chivalrous men in this world!
It's just a pity that it didn't work out in one fell swoop...

Liu Qi was quite emotional, smiling for a while, sighing for a while, without the slightest awareness of being imprisoned, just like ordinary people, after feeling that it has nothing to do with him, he somewhat regards the incident as an appetizer for dinner.

So when Liu Qi heard that Pang Tong had come to visit him, he couldn't help being shocked.

Pang Tong had a dark face, and when he saw Liu Qi, he immediately said: "Mr. Liu, your life is not long!"

⊙[-]⊙Liu Qi was a little apprehensive at first, but was threatened by Pang Tong, and immediately shrank back, almost limp on the table.

"This! Envoy Pang!" Liu Qi argued, "A certain person lives here without arrogating himself, how can disaster happen from heaven!"

Pang Tong stared at Liu Qi closely, and said, "What happened in the city today...does Mr. Liu know about it?"

Liu Qi subconsciously wanted to deny it, but then he thought about it, how could he not be aware of such a big commotion in the city? "This...is in the courtyard, I heard a little about it..."

Pang Tong sneered twice, deliberately not speaking.

On the way here, Pang Tong also thought about whether it was Liu Biao from Jingxiang who sent people to rescue Liu Qi, but firstly, the time was not right, and secondly, Liu Qi’s residence was adjacent to the neighborhood of the General’s Mansion. Therefore, the defense force is relatively strong. According to the report of the soldiers in charge of guarding Liu Qi, not only did no thieves attack here, but even Liu Qi himself and his personal attendants inside did not do anything special.

Moreover, from Sichuan to Guanzhong, Liu Qi was under supervision. If he wanted to connect with these desperadoes, it was not something ordinary people could do.

If Liu Qi had such a deep mind and such a great ability, he could play tricks here under the eyes of General Hussar, how could he be defeated in Sichuan and Shu without a single blow?

Therefore, if it is said that these desperadoes are related to Liu Qi, it is not very reasonable in itself.

But this way, it's a little strange...

Could it be said that it was a unilateral rescue without Liu Qi knowing about it?
Or were the first few just lurking, and those who came later brought new orders?Pang Tong didn't know what the specific order was, but it didn't prevent Pang Tong from using this to deceive Liu Qi.

At least from the perspective of Huang's crossbow, it is very likely that these desperadoes are from Jingxiang...

"Come here!" Pang Tong shouted loudly, squinting at Liu Qi who was dripping with sweat, "Bring it up to Mr. Liu to see..."

Amidst the sound of clashing clangs and armors, heavily armed soldiers came from the midst, holding the heads in their hands, like fierce gods.The blood of the human head had basically completely solidified, the long hair was pulled up, and even the blue-purple skin on the human head's face was somewhat deformed.

"Boom! Boom!"

"Gollum..."

The soldiers in full armor threw the heads directly into the hall, where they rolled like meat balls on the wooden floor.

One rolled and went straight in front of Liu Qi, Liu Qi was so frightened that he didn't care about his demeanor, he hugged his face with his big sleeves, kicked with both legs, and kicked the head of the rolling person aside...

Pang Tong stared at Liu Qi's expression and actions, evaluating.

"Master Liu!" Pang Tong shouted in a deep voice.

Liu Qi trembled when he heard the sound, and slowly put down his big sleeves, revealing two frightened eyes.

"Do you think that the rebellion in the city today is aimed at General Hussars?!" Pang Tong sneered, "Hehe, they are aimed at Mr. Liu!"

"What?!" Liu Qi had a very confused expression on his face.

"Don't understand?" Pang Tong asked.

Liu Qi shook his head blankly.

Pang Tong's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "General Hussars is going to Qinglong Temple today. After leaving the city, there will be great chaos in the city... If you came here for Generals Hussars, why did you choose this time?"

Liu Qi swallowed a mouthful of saliva, feeling that his throat was dry and uncomfortable, "Then... Pang Shijun's intention..."

Pang Tong smiled and said, "Since it's not for General Hussars, is there anyone in this city who is more valuable than Mr. Liu? It's worth such a big effort?"

Liu Qi was stunned for a moment, then his eyes slowly moved to the heads of those people in the hall, his throat moved up and down, "This..."

"These thieves caused riots in the city, not to make a fuss and come to rescue the young master..." Pang Tong stared at Liu Qi closely and said, "They came here to take the young master's life!"

"What?!" Liu Qi's head was already very confused, and he asked again intentionally, trying to get a more definite answer.

"If the young master dies here, it will be of no benefit to the hussars..." Pang Tong sneered, "But for other people, if the young master dies, it will be of great benefit..."

It's very simple, Liu Qi's death in Chang'an, is there any benefit for Fei Qian?Obviously there is no benefit, so neither Fei Qian nor Pang Tong, even some people under the hussars will not do anything to Liu Qi, but if Liu Qi really died in Chang'an, then who can benefit from it?

Liu Qi's eyes widened, and gradually showed some hatred, but soon his eyes relaxed again, "It shouldn't be like this..."

Pang Tong chuckled and raised his eyebrows, "You can tell at a glance... Come here today, besides telling Mr. Liu about this, you might as well use Mr. Liu's subordinates to identify whether there are any of these thieves. Familiar people...if you know someone...huh?"

Liu Qi nodded again and again, and hurriedly said to several of his personal guards: "Mr. Pang is right! He is right! Come, come! Quick, quickly identify, do you know any of these people... "
