Chapter 58: Encirclement and Suppression

Just when Zhang Tang was about to give the order for the archer soldiers to prepare to shoot arrows into the courtyard, the door of the house in the courtyard opened, and Meng Tian looked inside, but what he saw was Gao Wei.

Why is Gao Wei here? Could it be that he already knew his plan? Meng Tian had doubts in his heart, but he didn't show it, and quietly watched Gao Wei open the door and come out.

Meng Tian ordered the soldiers to stop shooting arrows and extinguish the flames on the bows, but still asked the soldiers to put their arrows on the bowstrings, ready to shoot at any time.

Gao Wei walked out, and now everyone's attention turned to Gao Wei's body, and the heavily armed soldiers of the Qin army who were in charge of defending the courtyard heard someone on the other side say that this was the chief steward pretended to be the killer of the Wei State, so these soldiers held their shields while observing the chief steward from the corner of their eyes.

Gao Wei walked between the two groups of people and looked at Meng Tian, but she didn't seem to be very surprised by Meng Tian's resurrection, and asked: "Isn't this General Meng? A few days ago, I heard that the general died mysteriously after eating in the mansion, and the villain was still sad for the general, so the general scolded me, saying that I was not hospitable, so that the general died young. However, if you can still see the general here today, the villain can rest assured. But the general has brought so many people here tonight, I don't know what happened?"

Meng Tian was really angry when he saw that Gao Wei had poisoned the meal and murdered Zi Yanran in a few words, but for the sake of the overall situation, Meng Tian also responded with a smile: "Mr. Gao didn't know, that day, my companions and I were quite tired after eating the food sent by the General's Mansion, so we rested in the house for a while, but when we woke up, we were in the wasteland, and our bodies were covered with mud. So when I come here tonight, I would like to ask Chief Gao what is going on? Also, I want to see the general and ask him to do justice for me. ”

Just as Meng Tian and Zhang Yi were leading people to confront Gao Wei, Zhang Tang also rushed here with his men and horses, shook his head at Meng Tian, and signaled that he had not found any trace of Gao Wei, but then he found Gao Wei standing in the middle of the two armies, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking that this guy had already run away.

Meng Tian pressed Zhang Tang's hand that was about to draw the knife, and said, "Brother Zhang, don't worry, it's them who are in a hurry now, are they all arranged around?"

Zhang Tang replied: "Young General, please rest assured, the last general dares to guarantee his life, and all the spies in this room will not be able to escape tonight." ”

Meng Tian nodded, and said to the Qin soldiers around Gao Wei: "Qin army soldiers, do you think that this person in front of you is really the Gao general next to the general? I think the real Gao Guan was killed by him a long time ago, and then this person put on the mask of Gao Guan to deceive you here, I hope you will not continue to accept this person's deception, this person and the general in the house, all of them are killers sent by the Wei State." ”

The heavily armed Qin soldiers beside Gao Wei you look at me, I look at you, and then everyone continued to look at Gao Wei. Gao Wei saw that Meng Tian and the others were paying attention to him again, and said with a sneer: "How long have I been with you, do you still dare to doubt me? Who knows who this person is? Now that you are about to doubt me after listening to a few words from this outsider, don't I have an outsider worthy of your trust?"

Gao Wei's series of rhetorical questions made the surrounding Qin soldiers continue to waver. The Gao Guan in front of him and himself have worked together with the general for so many years, of course they are very familiar with it, but the person opposite said that the real Gao Guan may have died a long time ago, and the Gao Guan in front of him is disguised, so it seems that what both sides said makes sense.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Wei came out to the Qin soldiers next to him a few things that happened to the general a few years ago, which made the Qin soldiers in the courtyard believe that he was really Gao Wei, not a spy from the Wei State as Meng Tian said.

However, just as Gao Wei was about to rebel against the Qin soldiers behind Meng Tian, there was a sudden sound of breaking the air on the roof, and four people jumped down from the roof, all four of them were wearing Qin army clothes, and Meng Tian recognized them as the four lieutenants who appeared at the gate of the palace to receive him during the day.

When these four lieutenants jumped from the roof, Gao Wei already knew that something was wrong, if these four people did not appear here, then it was possible that tonight they could really completely wipe out the real strength of the Qin army stationed in Yiqu, remove some middle and low-level officers, and replace them with their own cronies, and then his own country would easily pull up a large army under the nose of Qin State. But everything changed after these four idiots came here, and he couldn't explain the identities of these four people at all, and even the identities of himself and the fake Yingguang could even be revealed.

Meng Tian, Zhang Tang and the others were naturally happy to see these four people coming here, and it depends on how you continue to make up this lie. However, what made Meng Tian feel strange was that he only sent someone to block the news of these four people, and did not mean to trap these four people here, and then encircle and suppress these four people after all the things were resolved here.

At this time, many people came here behind the four Wei killers who were pretending to be deputy generals, and it turned out that Zi Yanran and Abradao and Yiqu people rushed here. Zi Yanran winked at Meng Tian a few times, and Meng Tian realized that it was Zi Yanran who drove all four of them here, which ruined their plan, but it did help him a lot.

Abra jumped down from the roof of the house and said to Meng Tian: "These people found out that something was wrong and wanted to escape, so Yan Ran and I rushed here with people, so there is no big trouble." ”

Meng Tian shook his head, "Second Uncle, you drove them over too timely, now it's okay, I think these Wei people have anything else to say?" Meng Tian looked at Gao Wei, smiled at Gao Wei and said, "Manager Gao, please explain the origin of these four people to our big guys." ”

Gao Wei's face had been changing since he saw these four men coming here, and when he heard Meng Tian questioning him, he understood that the plan of his organization had been completely disrupted, so he simply stopped pretending. Gao Wei tore his hand at his neck, and a mask was torn off, revealing an unfamiliar face. The four men disguised as lieutenants saw Gao Wei unravel his true face and also tore off the mask on his face.

Gao Wei laughed and said: "Meng Tian, you really deserve to be the grandson of Meng Tian's old miscellaneous hair, as shrewd as your grandfather." This time, your plans have been ruined by you, and you have to wait for the revenge of our helmsman. Come on, anyway, even if you return to the organization, it will be a dead end, why don't you die here today and kill a few more of you Qin people. After saying that, a weapon slipped out of the cuff and landed in his hand, which was the unique weapon of the dark bird - fish intestines.

"You've finally revealed your true colors, and I'm still wondering how you're going to quibble next, and I'll take you and tell the mystery directly. In that case, let's invite the 'general' in the room to come out as well, he must have been lying in the room long enough. Meng Tian said, and then shouted into the room behind the crowd, "'General', please show up." ”

As soon as Meng Tian's words fell, he only heard that the door of the house in the courtyard was broken, and then a figure rushed out, and then fell in the crowd. After this person fell into the crowd, he immediately tore off the mask on his face, revealing the appearance of a middle-aged man. After this man fell in the crowd, the man disguised as Gao Wei and the other four people quickly surrounded this person, and then each held a weapon in his hand to face the surrounding Qin soldiers.

Seeing that the 'Great General' also appeared, Meng Tian seemed to feel that something was missing, and suddenly he remembered that there was another person, and then Meng Tian looked around, trying to find out something.

The 'general' on the floor just now saw Meng Tian looking around, knew what Meng Tian was doing, and said, "What's the matter, did you find that there is one person missing?"

Meng Tian nodded and asked, "Yes, I was wondering where the pharmacist who drugged me and Yanran went?"

The 'general' laughed and said: "It seems that you little guy is quite smart, and I am really not wronged when I lose at your hands." But don't you think it's strange why Galway is here, and what are I doing when I've been waiting for you in my room for so long?"

Meng Tian was shocked in his heart, and asked Zhang Yi beside him, "How far is it from Gao Wei's room here?"

Zhang Yi thought for a moment and said, "There is a distance of about fifty steps. ”

"Only fifty steps?"

"Back to the words of the major general, it is almost this distance, because Gao Wei used to be a close confidant of the general, so his residence is next to this courtyard. ”

Meng Tian asked Abra again: "Second uncle, is the geology of the palace suitable for digging tunnels underground?"

Seeing Meng Tian asking himself, Abra didn't understand what it meant, thought for a while and said: "The reason why the palace chose to build here is because the soil here is relatively dry and hard, not easy to loosen, although it is close to the Yellow River, but it is already half mountainous and half sandy soil. By the way, what are you asking all this for?"

After listening to Abra's words, Meng Tian knew in his heart that something was wrong, and he had planned so much, why didn't he think of this. Meng Tian looked at the 'Great General' who was surrounded by Gao Wei and the other four people, and said, "It seems that you are still cunning and cunning, but I haven't figured it out, why is it not you who escaped from the tunnel but the pharmacist who can only poison?"

The 'General' said, "The fact that you can think of the authentic now shows that you are indeed very good, and if you were one of our people, I think the helmsman would be very happy." As for why I stayed, since I'm out today, it doesn't hurt to tell you. That pharmacist is not my subordinate, on the contrary, his position in our organization is a little higher than mine, and besides, I ruined the plan of the chief helmsman, even if I return to the organization, I will not escape the punishment of the organization, so it is better to delay you a little time and let him escape, this is the last thing I repay the organization. ”

Abra and Zi Yanran heard that the medicine master had fled from the tunnel and wanted to chase after him, but they were stopped by Meng Tian. Meng Tian said: "Yes, I want to know how long you have been planning in Yiqu, and what is your purpose?"

"Then I have no comment. The 'Great General' replied, revealing his weapon in his hand, "Brothers, since we can't leave tonight, let's kill a few more barbarians who destroyed our homeland, the Qin State." ”

"Good. The five people around him shouted in unison.

Seeing that these six people were going to fight hard, Meng Tian hurriedly commanded everyone to prepare for a battle with them: "Everyone listen to my orders, the heavy infantry raises their shields in front, the archers are scattered around, and the rest of them have changed into short weapons and are ready to deal with the enemy's attack. Since the other party is all killers who are good at assassination, Meng Tian does not dare to be careless.

In this way, the heavily armed Qin soldiers who were still swaying just now formed a circle around the six people, taking off the shields behind them and facing the six people. Abra and Zi Yanran, along with fifty Qu people, were scattered around the area to prevent the killers from escaping from the air. Meng Tian, Zhang Tang, Wang Fei and Zhang Yi stood in four directions, jointly surrounding the six people in the center, and the battle was about to break out.

"Kill!"
