Weird things happen every day, especially this year.

I've heard of people robbing money, food, and women, but I've never heard of people robbing arsenic.

After Li Qi finished speaking, he felt confused, and then said: "You---what are you talking about? Please explain it clearly."

Xiao An couldn't help but said: "Sir, the thing is like this. The villain and Mr. Yu escorted the last batch of medicinal materials to Yizhou a few days ago. But at dawn today, when I passed by Shanglin County and Wu

At the junction of Ming County and Ming County, a group of strongmen suddenly appeared and wanted to steal our medicinal materials. Although there were many of us, we were still outmatched. We could only fight and drive at the same time. Now we are trapped in a small forest by them.

, the villain ran out only after desperate efforts."

"robber?"

Li Qi was a little overwhelmed and said: "How could there be bandits here? Haven't all the chieftains surrendered? Now they have all gone to Jiaozhi. How could there be bandits?"

"Sir, this is absolutely true. Please send someone to rescue him quickly. I'm afraid that Mr. Yu and the others won't be able to hold on for long!"

Yes, saving people is important. Li Qi asked: "How many people are there?"

"I don't know the specifics, but there are at least several hundred people."

"so much?"

Li Qi cursed: "MD, I really can't have a moment of peace."

Zhao Jingyan said: "What are you going to do?"

Li Qi rubbed his face vigorously and said: "What else can be done? Of course, send troops to rescue immediately. Those are not ordinary medicinal materials, most of them are arsenic. If this falls into the hands of gangsters, it will be extremely bad.

Yes. You should ask Yue Fei immediately---"

Zhao Jingyan reminded: "Yue Fei has already left."

"Yes, yes, I'm confused." Li Qi suddenly asked: "How many people do I have here?"

"About a thousand people."

Li Qidao: "Immediately ask the drunkard to lead five hundred, no, eight hundred people."

"Let the drunkard go? Why don't I go and forget it." Zhao Jingyan was really not at ease with that bad uncle who was half awake and half asleep. Compared to this, she would rather let Ma Qiao go.

As everyone knows, if Ma Qiao is allowed to lead the troops in a war, it would be a taboo for soldiers, because Ma Qiao pursues handsomeness and fairness, and does not rely on strength to bully the weak. What's the point of fighting?

Li Qi said impatiently: "What are you doing with these killings? Don't underestimate drunkards. Drunk drunkards are no worse than anyone else in terms of their brains. Let's just decide. Hurry up. Hurry up."

Zhao Jingyan also knew why Li Qi was so eager, because the arsenic shipped this time was not a matter of one pound or two. Without Li Qi's order, anyone who bought so much arsenic would have to be killed. Moreover, if the other party was rushing

It would be even worse if he went with the arsenic. He responded and immediately went out with Xiao An.

Half an hour later, Zhao Jingyan came back.

Li Qi just seemed to be thinking about something. When he saw Zhao Jingyan coming, he raised his head and asked, "Where are the drunkards going?"

Zhao Jingyan nodded and sat next to Li Qi. Seeing Li Qi's face full of sadness, she said: "Don't worry, Mr. Yu has more than 300 people, and there are 200 soldiers among them, and they are all armed. Although he is trapped,

, but it should be possible to defend for one day, our people are all cavalry. We should be able to reach the woods by evening."

"That's good." Li Qi sighed and said: "If this is an ordinary medicinal material, that's fine. If it is robbed, you can take it back again, or go to various places to collect it, but this is arsenic, and the quantity is too huge.

.If it is taken away by someone with evil intentions, the consequences are unimaginable."

Zhao Jingyan said: "I think Mr. Yu should also understand the stakes involved. If he really can't hold on, he will probably choose to burn the arsenic."

"I hope so."

Li Qi frowned, pondered for a moment, and said, "But who do you think these people are?"

Zhao Jingyan thought for a while, shook her head and said: "I never thought of this for a while. We didn't offend anyone here. We just killed Luo Hu, but Luo Hu is dead, and Baihu Village has been taken over by Luo Long. Luo Long

He also led the people from Baihu Village to follow Yue Fei in his southern expedition. Not only that, the eighteen major tribes also surrendered to the imperial court. It couldn't be their fault. Could it be the fault of those small tribes?"

Because time was tight, Li Qi was only responsible for dealing with the big ministers. As for the small tribes, he had to take his time.

Li Qi shook his head and said: "This is impossible. Now the eighteen major tribes have surrendered to the imperial court, and the entire Yizhou is under the control of the imperial court. Unless those small tribes do not want to mix up, they will not be stupid enough to steal the imperial court's things, and

This is not a good thing either.”

Zhao Jingyan said: "Did we really encounter robbers?"

"It is possible if they are robbers. They may not know that the escort is arsenic and think it is some gold and silver treasure. But the problem is that there are hundreds of people on the other side, which means that this robber is very powerful. In that case, someone should know

."

"Ask Magistrate Du and you will find out."

"I've already sent someone, they should be here soon."

After a while, Du Ming hurried in and saluted Li Qi.

Li Qi waved his hand and said: "Prefect Du, you should already know the matter, right?"

Du Ming nodded and said, "I've heard it."

Zhao Jingyan said: "The location of the incident is at the junction of Shanglin County and Wuming County. There have been no bandits there before."

"No."

Du Ming shook his head and affirmed without thinking.

Li Qi asked curiously: "Why did you answer so firmly?"

Du Ming said: "That place used to be Luo Hu's territory. I have never heard of anyone who dares to rob there."

"What you said makes sense." Li Qi nodded and asked, "Besides Luo Hu, which other tribe lives in that area?"

Du Ming thought for a while and said, "It seems there is another Langdong tribe."

"Langdong Clan?"

"Yes, that's right, it's the Langdong Clan. The Langdong Clan is just a small tribe, with only five or six hundred people in the entire tribe."

Zhao Jingyan suddenly said: "Is this Langdong tribe related to Baihu Village?"

Du Ming shook his head and said: "I know the specific details, but I guess not. The people of the Langdong tribe are accustomed to living in the mountains and rarely interact with the outside world, but they are very united, just like a pack of wolves, and I heard that their

The tribesmen are very fierce, very few people mess with them, and I have never heard of them having any contact with Luohu Baihu Village."

Li Qi pondered: "I think it can't be them. If the Langdong tribe only has five or six hundred people in total, they can't possibly go out to grab a batch of arsenic. Governor Du, is there anything else in Yizhou?"

Have we forgotten our strong men?”

Du Ming thought for a long time, shook his head and said: "No, in the past, Yi and Qin were controlled by the eighteen major tribes. Apart from them, the rest were small tribes. Their power was relatively weak, and generally they were

Attached to the eighteen major tribes."

Zhao Jingyan frowned and said: "This group of people came so mysteriously, I don't think this matter is simple!"

Li Qi nodded and said, "I think so too."

Zhao Jingyan said with a hint of worry: "Li Qi, do you want to bring back some people from the front line?"

Li Qi frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Let's wait until Yu Junjie and the others are rescued first before taking a look. Magistrate Du, I'll trouble you to investigate this matter."

"I obey my orders."

.......

Before I knew it, it was getting dark.

"Please give in, please give in! Thank you! Thank you!"

I saw five or six people pushing a few flatbed trucks quickly towards the Yizhou government office.

"Give it!"

At this time, five or six people suddenly came across from the opposite side pushing flatbed trucks towards Yizhou Government Office.

"Give."

"Give."

"Bang!"

When the two sides were passing by the government office, perhaps because they were walking too fast, they were unable to dodge. Suddenly, two flatbed trucks collided with each other and both fell to the ground.

"Hey, hey, why are you pushing the cart? Do you have eyesight? You don't even look at the road."

"Hey! If I say you're a bad guy, you should file a complaint first. It's obviously your fault."

"We were the ones who went this way first. It's obviously your fault. Pay the money quickly."

"I'll accompany your mother-in-law."

"How dare you curse?"

"So what if I scold you? What? I want to do something!"

Whenever the two sides disagreed, they started pushing each other.

The four government officials in front of the door saw each other and winked at each other. Two of them came over. One of them shouted: "What are you doing? What are you doing? Why don't you stop quickly? You don't even look at where this place is. How dare you make trouble here."

"

"Uncle Cha, you saw it with your own eyes. They were the ones who took action first."
