Zhiyang is located in Jincheng County, east of the Yellow River, surrounded by mountains. Last year, an iron ore and coal mine were discovered. In order to mine more iron and mints, Liu Yi mobilized 20,000 Xiongnu and Xianbei young men from Hetao to mine. The mining method was still relatively primitive at this time. I dug a hole and kept digging in. There were not many safety measures. Liu Yi had no time to survey and build mine caves one by one before.

It is precisely because of the large number of migrant workers of the two tribes that Liu Yi is very concerned about Zhiyang, a city that was not so prominent in the past. The county magistrate is named Wei Jue, who is quite honest and decisive. At the same time, he also sent two thousand soldiers to garrison here. County officials at all levels were carefully selected by Jiang Wan, but problems eventually broke out.

Since the Huns surrendered and the Tuoba tribe was destroyed, Liu Yi began to rectify the mines in Xiliang and severely punish corruption. During this period, the Xiliang officialdom was in a panic, and few people dared to commit crimes against the wind, let alone the honest and upright officials like Wei Jue.

When Liu Yi arrived, the county town of Zhiyang was closed, and there were still a large number of migrant workers wandering around outside the city. The wooden tracks were also demolished and could not reach the mine or the county town directly. Someone saw the frame coming here and shouted a whistle. A large number of migrant workers from the Xiongnu and Xianbei were rushing over with various tools.

After the war, Liu Yi confiscated all their weapons. Now they are mining tools, everything is full of chaos.

"Array!" Ma Dai, who was accompanying him, saw so many people coming, his face changed, and he shouted loudly. The soldiers in the car quickly jumped out of the car and lined up the queue at extremely fast speed. Rows of crossbow arrows aimed at the oncoming migrant workers. At the same time, Ma Dai rode his horse to the front and shouted loudly: "If you go further, kill you without mercy!"

These were all Huns or Xianbei migrant workers. Many people couldn't understand the official language at all. Ma Dai shouted in the half-baked Huns' language. Some people stopped, but more people turned a blind eye and continued to rush toward this side.

"Shoot the arrow!" Ma Dai's expression turned cold. In an instant, thousands of arrows were fired at once. Although Liu Yi's guard team was not large, they were all elite troops in the army, equipped with the most exquisite armor and crossbows. A row of sharp arrows fell, and a group of migrant workers rushed in an instant.

The death of the companions finally made these people feel fear and stopped the rush. These people seemed to be different from the garrisons in the county, and they really dared to kill people.

"Sikong has ordered not to abuse us. How dare you kill someone!" Someone suddenly shouted in the crowd, and at least dozens of people were clamoring in different directions.

In the carriage, Liu Yi narrowed his eyes. When he came, he felt that something was wrong. Now he felt even more wrong. He pushed open the car door, got out of the carriage, and looked at these people and said, "I am the great Han Sikong, Liu Yi, and you gathered to surround me and attack the carriage frame of me. I have reason to suspect that you and others intend to murder me and murder important officials of the court. The crime should be punished!"

Liu Yi's eyes swept through the crowd, his voice was loud and everyone around could hear it. For a moment, the originally noisy scene gradually became quiet.

During the Battle of Hetao, although Liu Yi only missed one thing when he destroyed Tuoba Yu from beginning to end, his reputation is now extremely great among the naturalized population of the Huns and Xianbei. Not only did Liu Yi destroy the Tuoba troops and forcibly recover Hetao and naturalize the Huns, but also because during this period, Liu Yi investigated and punished corrupt officials everywhere and protected the interests of these people, so he had a lot of reputation among the naturalized population of the Huns and Xianbei.

"Why are you destroying the tracks and blocking my way? You know that in the Han Dynasty, it is a serious crime to demolish the tracks privately?" Liu Yi came to the front of the formation and looked at these people. His eyes gradually became sharp. No one dared to look at them within his eyes.

"We have no intention of making things difficult for Sikong, but..." A migrant worker seemed to be frightened by Liu Yi's eyes and wanted to say something. But at the end of the day, a fierce light suddenly flashed in his eyes. He took out a crossbow from behind and shot him with an arrow at Liu Yi.

"Be careful with Sikong!" Suddenly, Ma Dai and others couldn't react at all, and the crossbow arrow had already hit Liu Yi in the chest.

"Ding~" With a crisp sound, in the other party's astonished gaze, the crossbow arrow stabbed Liu Yi's chest, but made a sound of metal and iron clashing, and was bounced away directly.

"Catch it!" Ma Dai shouted. The guards had already rushed out and took the man down. At the same time, rows of guards stepped forward to protect Liu Yi and aimed the crossbow arrows at these people.

A drop of cold sweat oozed out of the forehead. Fortunately, the other party was aiming at the chest rather than the head. Otherwise, Liu Yi would probably say goodbye to the world after the arrow.

"Everyone knelt down and put down the objects in his hands! But if there are any abnormal movements, they will be killed without mercy!" Liu Yi took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

After traveling through so many years, I have seen strong winds and waves, but today is the closest time he has to die!

Ma Dai's eyes were cold, and the guards had quickly dispersed, aiming the crossbows at the crowd. At this time, if anyone has any abnormal movement, the guards would definitely give them an arrow immediately.

A group of migrant workers were confused by the scene in front of them. Looking at the scene, some people had already begun to kneel down silently and put down the things in their hands, but some people hesitate. After all, the current situation is somewhat different from everyone's expectations. Liu Yi was assassinated. If they were to massacre one by one, wouldn't they even have the strength to resist?

Liu Yi has calmed down at this moment. Seeing this, he came to the front of everyone under the protection of the guards and shouted in a deep voice: "I don't know why you gathered to cause trouble, but it is obvious that someone wants to provoke them. You have also seen their target. It is me who provokes you and others to cause trouble, just to confuse the public. Do you still want to use guns for them? Liu Yi can swear here that as long as you do what I said, you will never kill innocent people indiscriminately, but if you still refuse to cooperate..."

Liu Yi's eyes became cold and cold: "Liu Yi can slaughter all 30,000 rebels in the Tuoba tribe. Will he dare to slaughter all of you? Can someone try it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of people fell to the ground. Liu Yi's greatest harm to the Huns and Xianbei was actually to provoke a war between the two tribes. In this process, nearly 100,000 wars between the two tribes died in battle. However, for these naturalized Huns and Xianbei people, the most terrifying thing was that Liu Yi killed 30,000 elite troops of the Tuoba tribe in one battle and directly destroyed the Tuoba tribe. This person should not look at the harmlessness of people and animals, but if he really wanted to kill people, he would be more cruel than anyone else.

Liu Yi took out his helmet belt from the carriage and put a bronze mask on his face. Then he felt much more at ease. He picked up the arrow cluster from the ground and his eyes became cold: "This is my Han-style military crossbow. Does anyone want to kill me with the crossbow arrows I made?"

"Sikong?" Ma Dai looked at Liu Yi, and he could feel the anger under Liu Yi's plain words.

"Search!" Liu Yi raised his head and looked at the group of people kneeling on the ground and said, "From now on, no one is allowed to move, and he consciously cooperates with the search."

No one dared to move. With Ma Dai waved his hand, a team of personal guards immediately entered the crowd and began to search. At the same time, Liu Yi sent someone to the county government and asked Wei Jue to transfer another group of people to come. His previous political affairs in the Xiliang officialdom seemed to have touched the bottom line of some people, and he even used this despicable method to deal with him.

"Don't move!" In the crowd, a man suddenly rose up and wanted to seize the weapons of his guards, but was slapped on the ground by his guards. These guards were trained in various military camps. After actual combat, the elites selected from the best were released separately. Not to mention one as one, but one block, three as five, were not a problem.

"Sikong!" The guards held a powerful crossbow in their hands, and two other guards came to Liu Yi with an inconspicuous man.

Liu Yi took over the powerful crossbow and his eyes became even colder. This was a crossbow made in Shuzhong. In terms of style and power, it was much stronger than when he was in Jingzhou. This kind of crossbow is absolutely forbidden to be sold to the outside world. Only the Han army can be equipped, and even in the Han army, not every crossbowman can be equipped.

This weapon is not easy to deal with.

"Who are you?" Liu Yi lowered his head and looked at the man and said.

"Xianbei people, today I will kill you to avenge the Shanyu!" The man looked up and looked at Liu Yi with a ferocious look on his face.

"Then say a few Xianbei words to me." Liu Yi was unmoved and just looked at the man and said.

“@#￥%&”

The man said it fluently, and Liu Yi turned his head and looked at Ma Dai beside him.

"It's Xianbei dialect." Ma Dai nodded.

"Where did this crossbow come from?" Liu Yi asked with the crossbow in his hand.

"Seizure on the battlefield."

"This kind of crossbow can't be seized on the battlefield, and these crossbows have their own numbers. This number was made in the third year of Zhangwu, not from our army." Liu Yi narrowed his eyes. The crossbows he brought this time were the latest batch, but this crossbow was made when he was reborn in Yunnan.

"..." The man fell into silence. The core number records of the Han armies were all under the jurisdiction of the Shaofu, and they were extremely strict. Outsiders did not know the difference.

Three more people were found carrying crossbows with them in the crowd.

"Sikong?" Ma Dai also noticed some problems. Not everyone can get the crossbow of the Han Dynasty. This matter is probably involved in some powerful ministers in the Han Dynasty.

"Prepare, look tight." Liu Yi said silently for a moment.

"Here, those people..." Ma Dai looked at the people who were kneeling.

"Take it back together." Liu Yi waved his hand. Among these people, there may be spies. It seems that they have to show their unique skills to see who is behind this.

"Here!" Ma Dai nodded and ordered people to tie up these people and take them to Zhiyang.

"Bozhan, if you go to inform the people around you, you will say that you will return to your camps immediately, and the court will solve the problem for them."

As for the problem, it doesn't matter anymore. These people were incited. As long as the source is found, other problems can be solved easily.

"Here!"
