Chapter 232: Entering Longtan alone

The south wall of Xingqing Palace is open to the Yang Gate, and the guards guarding the palace city are in a panic, and the name of Qin Jin, the lieutenant general of the Shenwu Army, is already equal to the flood beast at this time, how can this person be kind to him when he openly shouts to see Gao Xianggong?

The brigade leader who was responsible for guarding Tongyang Gate ordered people to go to Gao Xianzhi on the one hand, and shouted at the city on the other.

"General Qin, are you willing to step forward and answer?"

At the same time, there were already crossbowmen ready on the palace city, waiting for the opportunity to shoot Qin Jin, and they all said that the thief would capture the king first, and the man would shoot the horse first.

The abnormal behavior in the city immediately aroused Lu Qi's vigilance.

"Zhonglang will retreat, and the city intends to shoot arrows and plot!"

A group of people hurriedly escorted Qin Jin and retreated to a distance of a hundred steps away from the palace.

Although the longbow has a range of far more than 100 paces, the accuracy of its shooting has been greatly reduced, and it is planned to snipe with cold arrows, and the hit rate is not much better than pie in the sky.

After seeing this, the Tongyangmen Brigade couldn't help but shake his head and regret that if Qin Jin could carelessly take a step forward against the enemy, he could immediately confirm the target and order a sniper. Within a hundred paces, the accuracy of the archers is still guaranteed.

However, the brigade leader's insistence on sniping Qin Jin was also opposed by another brigade leader.

"If you provoke the rebels so much, aren't you afraid that they will attack the city suddenly? How can these hundred and ten men hold it?"

The guards of Xingqing Palace, both non-combat attrition and combat attrition are serious, and the number of dead and wounded, those who have escaped, especially the latter, is gradually increasing every day.

"Rebellious ministers and thieves, if you don't snipe and kill everyone, do you still have to wag your tail and beg for mercy?

Qin Jin's eyes were cold, staring at Tongyangmen's eyes without blinking, Chen Qianli's sudden defection shocked his heart, and it was not an exaggeration to call it the biggest blow after coming to the Tang Dynasty.

Although he couldn't figure out the reason why Chen Qianli made this choice, Qin Jin still judged the current situation with super adaptability, as well as the methods and means to deal with it.

Nowadays, any great ideals and ambitions have become empty words, and it is imperative to save lives and minimize losses as much as possible.

Qin Jin was waiting, waiting for Gao Xianzhi to appear, which was tantamount to a big gamble for him.

A moment later, Gao Xianzhi appeared on the Tongyang Gate.

"Qin Jin, the old man has always been a pillar of your talent, and you can't imagine that you will self-destruct, what else is there to say about looking for the old man today?"

Qin Jin sighed, "Xianggong Rong, the matter has come to this point, and it is a last resort to go down, and it is useless to say more." I only want to see him today, but there is a big change, and I want to negotiate with the public. ”

Gao Xianzhi's face was gloomy, and he only said lightly: "But it's just that!"

Through Gao Xianzhi's attitude, Qin Jin judged that Xingqing Palace should still know very little about the changes outside. But what he wants to say, how can it be proclaimed to all the people in such a city?

Seeing Qin Jin hesitating and hesitating, Gao Xianzhi sneered and wanted to leave with his sleeves gone.

"It's okay to say it!"

Gao Xianzhi has been in the army for a long time, and he knows that the current situation is either life or death, but it cannot be resolved in a few words, and he will not be naΓ―ve to repay the few words of negotiation in Qin Jin's mouth with unrealistic fantasies. At the same time, he was afraid of Qin Jin's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, so he was even more reluctant to stay on Tongyangmen!

Qin Jin finally made up his mind, waved his hand and shouted:

"Gao Xianggong walks slowly, there is indeed something important to discuss when you go down, please open the door and put it down and enter the palace!"

Gao Xianzhi's foot, which had just been raised, suddenly paused again, and turned his head to look down, with a confused look in his eyes, as if he suspected that he had misheard.

"Say that again?" the old man couldn't hear clearly. ”

Qin Jin repeated it again, asking to enter the palace city to discuss this matter with Gao Xianzhi secretly.

At this point, Gao Xianzhi confirmed that he had heard correctly, but Qin Jin openly entered the palace city as the commander of the first army, didn't he throw himself into the net? He blinked, thinking about what kind of conspiracy Qin Jin was brewing again. In Gao Xianzhi's eyes, this person is a fierce opponent that must not be taken lightly, subconsciously

Qin Jinyan couldn't realize the doubts of the guards in the palace city and Gao Xianzhi, but in such a sinister situation, he could only make dangerous moves.

"Go down and enter the palace alone, is Gao Xianggong afraid that going down will cause any waves?"

Gao Xianzhi was shocked, he never thought that Qin Jin would make such a stupid request, but since the other party rushed up to send him to death, how could he refuse?

"You can come in, you have to hang it into the city in a big basket!"

This is also the proper meaning, if the city gate is opened, it is very likely to be broken into the city.

Qin Jin nodded in agreement, but his subordinates were all panicked and stopped one after another.

"Zhonglang will never be, isn't this self-defeating?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ If you go to nine deaths for a lifetime, Zhonglang will not risk his life......"

However, Qin Jin had his own plans and grasps, so he insisted on doing so.

"Relax, it's not like going up the knife mountain and going down to the sea of fire, Qin can get in, and he can come out unscathed!"

Seeing that Qin Jin had made up his mind, Lu Qi stood up, "The last general is willing to enter the palace city with Zhonglang General!"

Qin Jin waved his hand, "No need, one more person may not be useful!"

As he spoke, a huge basket had been hung down from Miyagi with a rope.

"Please let in Nakarou!"

Qin Jin stepped into the big basket in full view of everyone, and with the tightening of the rope, he slowly climbed the Tongyang Gate Tower. At the same time, the Shenwu Army and others had already hung their hearts in their throats.

As soon as his feet stepped on the stone slab of the Tongyang Gate, Gao Xianzhi's cold order was pronounced.

"Take down the rebel Qin Jin!"

Qin Jin didn't panic, nor did he resist, but smiled lightly:

"Isn't Gao Xianggong curious, why is he willing to throw himself into the net?"

"No matter why you throw yourself into the net, it's always right to catch it first, and the thief should not make a senseless resistance, otherwise he will suffer ......"

The brigade who had previously ordered to snipe Qin Jin with crossbowmen had already come over step by step.

"Qiao Si, stop!"

As soon as Gao Xianzhi gave an order, this brigade surnamed Qiao stopped suddenly.

"Don't be bewitched by this cunning man!"

In fact, Gao Xianzhi also thought that this matter was very strange, such a stupid thing that would not even be done by a fool, not to mention Qin Jin, who was brave and good at fighting, the only explanation was that this person thought that he had enough chips to protect himself.

"Please retreat from the public and go down to tell you!"

Immediately, someone reprimanded and responded.

"Thieves don't play tricks!"

Gao Xianzhi unexpectedly agreed to Qin Jin's request.

"The place above the city tower is small, and it is impossible to retreat from the guards, so it is better to talk indoors!"

After that, he ordered someone to escort Qin Jin down the city wall and enter the house where the guards were on duty.

It wasn't until there were only two people left in the room, Qin Jin and Gao Xianzhi, Qin Jin sighed again, he and Gao Xianzhi had never been in such close contact alone, and he didn't expect to meet today as intolerable old enemies. Qin Jin moved his arms that were tied behind him, these guards and forbidden soldiers obviously hated him to the core, and the rope was so strangled that it could almost be embedded in the flesh.

"Gao Xianggong, can you loosen the rope that walks down first, this rope is so tight that half of your body is numb!"

Gao Xianzhi's face was slightly calm, and he picked up the steaming tea soup from the table, took a sip lightly, and said lightly:

"Say, the purpose of your entry into the city alone, if you can convince the old man, the rope can naturally be loosened!"

The implication is that if Qin Jin's words are difficult to impress him, not only will the rope not be loosened, but what awaits Qin Jin will also be a catastrophe!

"Going down can help the saint get out of trouble!"

As soon as the words came out, Gao Xianzhi holding Tao Wan's arm suddenly stopped, and before he could drink a sip of tea, he paused heavily on the case again.

"Do you know that the old man is not your trick?"

Qin Jin shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"The news of the Xianggong in the palace is blocked, the prince wants to kill and go, how can he not rise up to protect himself?"

Gao Xianzhi stared at Qin Jin's eyes tightly, as if he wanted to see through him, judging how credible this person's words were. The situation in the palace city is not as closed as Qin Jin said, although it is besieged, it is far from the point of being impermeable, and all kinds of news can also come in through various secret channels.

It's just that it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the falsehood from the news.

"Why did the prince kill you?"

Qin Jin shrugged his shoulders, but his arms were tied behind his back, which looked a little funny.

"To tell the truth, I don't know much about the inside story, if it weren't for someone taking the risk to warn, Qin Jin might have become an underground ghost at this moment, and he would have no chance to sit opposite Xianggong!"

This sentence is a real truth, Qin Jin doesn't think that making up a lie can justify itself is more effective.

"In this way, today's riot outside the Xingqing Gate should be aimed at the Shenwu Army?" Gao Xianzhi said with a frown.

Obviously, the movement outside the Shenwu Gate also attracted the attention of the guards in the Xingqing Palace, but it was difficult to determine the reason.

Qin Jin nodded yes, and recounted in detail the events before and after the introduction of Gao Lishi into the Taiji Palace in 1510,

Gao Xianzhi's face really changed greatly, he did hear that there was a large number of people in the city who were in rebellion, and it seemed that it was quickly suppressed, but he never imagined that it was Gao Lishi who gathered 30,000 new troops to regain control of Chang'an. However, what shocked him even more was that Qin Jin only used less than 3,000 Shenwu troops to wipe out his entire army in one day. This kind of thunderous efficiency is difficult for even Gao Xianzhi himself to achieve.

At this point, although Gao Xianzhi was still skeptical of Qin Jin's statement, she also realized that the crown prince and Qin Jin must have had some kind of unknown contradiction, and this was not a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that she could take advantage of?

Regardless of whether it is true or not, Gao Xianzhi wants to hear Qin Jin's specific plan, and at least he has to judge one or two about what this person wants. Although Qin Jin seemed to be detailed, there was one thing that was vague and unclear, and that was the situation that the Shenwu Army was facing now.

"In this case, General Qin said, what kind of plan do you have, and how to save the saint from the predicament?"
