Chapter 363 Lost Goods
Although Ma Yan didn't seem to understand the meaning of what Fei Qian said, at least he understood that Fei Qian was not blindly kind, and his treatment of the current Hu people was also in the overall strategic arrangement, so he didn't say anything more about the good or bad of the Hu people.

Fei Qian shook the spear twice, and found that there was still a little difficulty in the spear flower, although it could be formed, but it was not very round.
"When you turned your wrist at the end, you were a little stuck...... "Ma Yan said carefully observed Fei Qian's posture, and then said, "Don't stare at it, it's real and empty, and don't try to shake it and relax a little ......"
Fei Qian closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and according to what Ma Yan said, he didn't think about it and relaxed his state of mind......
Beiqu is located on the edge of the Loess Plateau, in the Han Dynasty, the soil and water have not been destroyed so seriously, many places have grown trees, without human intervention, can grow very strong, but also keep the soil and water will not be lost, so at this time the wind, or with some fresh smell of spring, unlike later generations, is completely a strong smell of dust......
The breeze blew through the treetops, making a rattling sound, Fei Qian listened to the wind, gradually let go of his thoughts, his wrist picked and turned, the head of the gun bounced off the ground with a roar, and then "swooped" out of a complete circle in the air.
Ma Yan clapped his hands and said with a smile: "It's done!" ”
However, this successful happiness only lasted for a short time, and when Fei Qian wanted to draw a second intact gun flower, he found that he still couldn't draw it, if he didn't know that Ma Yan was a witness on the side, maybe even Fei Qian himself didn't believe that he had ever completed such an act......
However, Ma Yan was comforting Fei Qian, saying that he had a good start, and he would naturally be able to do it slowly in the future, so he didn't have to be too anxious. After all, although Fei Qian now has a military position of Sima from another department, he still prefers more civilian officials, and if he really wants to let Fei Qian go into battle with a spear, then what do you want Ma Yan to do with himself, a pure military attaché?
At this moment, Huang Cheng walked over with a sinking face, saluted Xiang Fei, nodded to Ma Yan, and then said slowly: "We have a batch of goods, which have been robbed!" ”
"What?!" Fei Qian and Ma Yan said in unison.

"Over there!" Huang Cheng shouted as he pointed to the place where a flock of scavenging crows and vultures hovered in the sky.
Apparently this has been going on for a long time, and not only the scavenging crows and vultures have arrived, but also some wild wolves and some wild dogs have feasted here, biting open the chests and abdomen of the dead soldiers, a few are burying their heads in their hearts and livers, and a few are pulling at their intestines and stumps and severed arms.
Huang Cheng pulled out his bow and arrows and nailed to the ground a wild dog that was baring his teeth at Fei Qian and the others, and these beasts knew that they were powerful, let out some unwilling low roars, turned around and fled into the woods.
The scene was torn and dragged by wild beasts, most of the corpses were mutilated, and some dried blood stains and limb remains were everywhere, which looked extremely miserable.
The place where the goods were robbed was not very far from the Beiqu camp, and by the time Fei Qian, Ma Yan and Huang Cheng arrived at the scene with the soldiers, the goods had been looted, leaving only broken boxes and collapsed carriages, and the blades and leather armor of the dead soldiers were also stripped clean, revealing their bodies.
Ma Yan looked at the overall situation, frowned and thought for a while, came to a conclusion, pointed to the grove on his side and said: "The attack started here, first shot down the leading men and horses with bows and arrows, and then ......"
Mayan turned around and looked behind him with a frown, where there was a river a long time ago, and then the river was diverted, revealing a dry riverbed, and some horseshoe prints stretched from the side of the riverbed, and it was clear that there were also men and horses attacking from this direction......
It was a perfect ambush.
Use the archers in front to attract attention, and then use the cavalry to surprise from the flanks and rear, so Fei Qian waited until a long time later, and then realized that something was wrong, and when the scouts came out to check, and finally found this place, the attackers had completely withdrawn and disappeared without a trace.
But even if the attackers run away, they still leave all sorts of clues......
Huang Cheng dismounted, examined the corpse for a while, and then suddenly cut the wound of a corpse with a knife, reached into the wound and touched it for a while, took out something and returned to Fei Qian.
Fei Qian looked down and saw that it was an arrow made of bone, because the bone was too brittle, so it broke in the corpse when he pulled out the shaft......
Obviously, whether it is from the so many horseshoe prints or from the bone arrow, this ambush is most likely the work of the Hu people, but it is not clear which Hu man did it......
Fei Qian was silent for a long time and asked, "Is there still a future for Nagu in the Qiang people?" ”
The last time he came to the market, the Qiang Hao Shuai Li Nagu was the tribal leader of the Qiang people closest to Beiqu, and this place was not far from the grazing land of Linagu, so Fei Qian also sent someone to inform Li Nagu.
"Not yet, it stands to reason that they are closer than us, and they should have arrived first...... Are you going to send someone to urge you? Huang Cheng said.
Fei Qian thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "It's okay, let's just wait here." ”
After a long while, Li Nagu arrived late with some Qiang people.
"Huh?! What's going on? Rinagu looked left and right, and said with a very surprised look, but the corners of his eyes and eyebrows revealed a gloating that could not be concealed.
"Dear brother of the White Stone God, haven't you noticed anything at all? Didn't help us find some clues either? Fei Qian looked at Rinagu and said. It shouldn't have been done by Linagu, because in the expression shown by Linagu, the expression of watching the excitement accounts for the vast majority, and this expression is often seen on the faces of those who eat melons in later generations......
Li Nagu smiled, shook his head wrapped in a white turban, and said: "I really don't know this, besides, in this area, but there are so many people living in it, how would I know that it was the hands of that group of pups?" ”
Fei Qian sighed, and then motioned for Rinagu to go forward, and said as he walked: "Dear brother of the White Stone God, there is a situation that you may not know yet, these things...... These goods were originally intended to be gifts for you......"
Linagu's steps froze, and then he hurried to the front of Fei Qian's side, opened his eyes wide, opened his mouth wide, and said in a whisper: "The white stone is on top!" Fei Shangjun, what you said is true? ”
Fei Qian sighed, pointed to a wooden box beside him that was opened and smashed, and was empty, and said: "This box should be filled with twenty catties of tea bricks, which are produced by the largest tea estate in Sili, the tea is fragrant, and it is particularly strong and fresh, made of the finest tea, and each piece is still wrapped in fine silk cloth......"
Rinaghu's face was as gloomy as water.
"This carriage must have been filled with twenty sackcloth...... You know, what I'm going to give to the Shiraishi brothers is going to be ...... These linen cloths are not woven by ordinary women, but are specially woven by unmarried women little by little, and when you wear them, you can still smell the fragrance of those women......"
Rinagu grinded his teeth and his eyebrows trembled.
"And this—I won't say anything else, but I must tell you—this one is a gift I have carefully chosen, a bowl studded with silver threads for the brother of my dear god Shiraishi, each of which is made of filaments made of the purest silver, and then little by little it is fused with the bronze bowl, and the whole bowl is like a blooming white flower...... I was still thinking that if this bowl was given to my dear brother of the god Shiraishi and asked him to serve the tribute when he sacrificed to the god of Shiraishi, I guess the god of Shiraishi would be overjoyed......"
"Ahhh............h How dare you rob me...... Oh, the goods of Feishangjun! These damn guys! All should be hanged! Hang! ”
Rinagu vented his anger for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said to Fei Qian: "The god of Baishi told us to help our brother, so this matter, our descendants of Baishi...... I will definitely help you! ”
