Chapter 223: You're Just a Dog
Hearing that there was a little dissatisfaction in the tone of the British king, and then looking at the five hundred soldiers waiting for his group of three over there, although Liu Hu was still full of reluctance, he could only bite the bullet. In his heart, he scolded Fan Jian, who was covering his mouth and stealing fun, half to death. While stubbornly putting on this official uniform.
When Liu Hu, who put on the official robe, put the foot cover on the head of the four-rank official, and finally put it on his head. Some vicissitudes and aging faces portray the image of an official who is depressed and has endured all the hardships of half his life before climbing to the fourth grade, and portrays it vividly. If he didn't speak, others would think that this guy was a fourth-grade civil official who was darker and stronger.
Liu Hu's appearance shocked almost everyone present, and they couldn't help but admire Fan Jian, the guy who looked out of tune, but his vision was so accurate. It's just that maybe there is an uphill battle waiting for you, and everyone is focused on the surprises that may come next, except for the first amazing glimpse.
Huang Qiong saw Liu Hu, who felt awkward all over her body, after putting on the official uniform, but nodded with satisfaction. It's just that Huang Qiong, who is satisfied and satisfied, and his mind is also on the tiger prison under the mountain, and he didn't say anything. It's just that after Liu Hu changed his clothes, he rushed out first after setting off.
Contrary to almost everyone's expectations, the operation went smoothly. The captain who was guarding the West Gate of Tiger Prison was stunned after seeing Liu Hu's official uniform and hearing Fan Jian, who appeared as a staff member, talking nonsense. Without saying a word, he opened and closed the doorkeeper Huang Qiong and his party and welcomed them into the Tiger Prison. The first pass was successfully crossed, which made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief.
But after entering Guanzhong, Huang Qiong, Zhao Duwei, Wang Dalong, and Fan Jian all felt that something was wrong with the situation in Guanzhong. It's too quiet, the first thought that came to mind after entering the pass. Except for a few sergeants standing guard at the gate, there was no indication of the imminent war within the entire gate.
Seeing the scene in front of him, a deep uneasiness rose in his heart and felt Huang Qiong. When passing through the urn city, he consciously slowed down. Seeing that the King of England had slowed down and had also sensed that something was wrong, Fan Jian cautiously turned to his side and whispered, "Lord Wang, something is wrong. β
"Regardless of whether that Jiang Dutong rebelled or not, Guan Nai should not be so calm at the moment. Concerned with the defenders, this number is also a little too small. Even if they were all concentrated in the east, the forces here would be too weak. Fang Caijian roughly counted it, and the defenders on the west side, together with the upper and lower parts of the urn city, were less than three hundred. β
As soon as Fan Jian's words fell, Zhao Duwei on the side also spoke: "Lord Wang, Mr. Fan is not wrong, the current situation is indeed a little too strange. The last general has been eating food in the Tiger Prison Pass for many years, although the military attache of the Tiger Prison Pass cannot say that he knows all of them, but at least there should be many acquaintances. But I just saw a few, but I didn't even say hello to the last general. β
"Even over the years, it's a bit of a life because it's too far away. But our group is on a bad side after all, and even if he pretends to be, he should send at least one of his acquaintances to greet him. But now in this tiger prison, not even a single lieutenant has come out to greet him. Except for a few captains who used to guard the gate, they haven't even seen a single lieutenant until now. β
"This king has also noticed what you said. But now that we're in, there's no way out except to fight. In a moment, you will send a capable man, with two hundred men and fifty horse archers, to Wang Dalong, and stay here in the name of rest. Once there is a change in the gate, it is important to control this west gate in your hands. β
"The others, after passing through the urn city, sped up and rushed to the capital yamen as fast as possible. Capture the thief and capture the king first, as long as he takes down that Jiang Dutong first, everything will have room to turn, and even if he has any conspiracy, there is no place to play. Remember, once you do it, don't think about this king, and make sure you do it neatly. β
"This king doesn't believe it, the military pay of this dynasty is the highest in all generations. No matter how difficult the imperial court's income was, it never owed a penny of military salary. The three thousand elites in the Tiger Prison will all risk raiding their homes and exterminating their families. If you don't get any benefit, you will willingly join him in the chaos. β
"Yes, the last general will do it according to the prince's arrangement. However, Lord Wang, Dalong was born in the border army and had the most experience on the battlefield, so he was indeed the best candidate to stay and prepare to control Urn City. But if he stays here, what will happen to you? Did you get out of town first? Regarding Huang Qiong's safety, Zhao Duwei was still a little worried and persuaded again.
Regarding Zhao Duwei's worries, Huang Qiong waved his hand and said, "Don't mention this matter." This king is now equivalent to the commander of the whole army, and at this time he retreated without a fight, how do you let these 500 soldiers view this king, and how to maintain the morale of the army? Do your own thing, and don't care about anything else. β
"Also, this king remembers that when he was about to set out, Yu Du commanded the envoy to dispatch ten marksmen. Bring them all to the king, and tell them whom the king's whip is pointed, and do not hesitate to shoot all the arrows you are carrying in the shortest possible time. As for the identity of the target, that's not something they should worry about. β
"Lord Wang, you don't have to choose someone else for this. The archery skills of the last general dare to be called the second in the cavalry battalion, and absolutely no one dares to call the first. Lord, when the time comes, you need the last general to shoot, and your horsewhip is just a finger. The last general guarantees that wherever you point, the last general's arrow will shoot. β
When I saw this Zhao Duwei mention archery, he had a proud and confident expression on his face, and it didn't seem to be a lie at all. Huang Qiong, who was somewhat in a hurry and knew that she didn't have much time left, said without hesitation: "Okay, since you recommended yourself, it's you." However, it cannot affect your command. β
"Please rest assured, you just wait for Qing." After Zhao Duwei gave a simple answer, he left Wang Dalong and 200 cavalry behind the urn city. When he rushed back to Huang Qiong's side, his hand had no trace of pulling out three arrows from the quiver on the side of the saddle and clasped them in his hand. The clasp on the bow bag was also quietly unbroken by him.
His actions did not escape Huang Qiong's eyes. Seeing this guy draw three arrows at the same time, Huang Qiong knew that this guy's previous words were definitely not boasting. And Huang Qiong also believes that those who dare to take this porcelain job at this time will definitely have diamond diamonds.
Although the geographical location of Tiger Pass is important, it is a military key pass after all. The area of the entire Guancheng is not very large, and it is about the same as the county seat of a third-class county. However, because it is located on a traffic artery, Kannai is in a kind of deformed prosperity. This can be seen from the only main street in the city, lined with brothels, restaurants, casinos, and inns.
Although there is not a single figure on the streets now, except for a small number of soldiers patrolling back and forth. But the prosperity of this city in the past can still be seen. And the Tiger Prison Pass is also located on this street. This Dutong Yamen is also the largest building in the Tiger Prison Pass, and not long after leaving Weng City, Huang Qiong saw this Dutong Yamen.
It's just that Huang Qiong and his entourage have just arrived at the Dutong Yamen, and they haven't had time to rush in. The gate of the Dutong Yamen, which had been closed just now, suddenly opened, and a large number of soldiers poured out of it. And around the Dutong Yamen, a large number of soldiers also poured out of the shops that were originally closed. Even the roofs of the shops were covered with archers. The sharp arrow on the bowstring in his hand was pointed directly at Huang Qiong and his party.
After Huang Qiong and his party were tightly surrounded, more than 20 war horses rushed out from the Yamen of the capital. One of the people wearing the costume of a fourth-grade military attachΓ© looked at Huang Qiong and his party, who had been tightly surrounded, and arched his hand: "I don't know that His Royal Highness the King of England has set up the Tiger Prison Pass, and the officials have lost their welcome, and I hope that His Royal Highness the King will forgive his sins." β
It's just that this guy said politely, but there was no half respect in his tone. And Huang Qiong and his party opposite him were all shocked after hearing his words. None of them thought that the other party would feel their whereabouts so thoroughly. Especially Fan Jian, who had worked hard to plan for nothing, his face was even more blue and red.
It was Huang Qiong, who saw that her whereabouts had been exposed, and she seemed very free. After whispering to Zhao Duwei to get ready, he walked to the front of the formation with the reins of his horse, and said with a slight arch of his hand: "Dare to speak to this king, the opposite side must be the control of the Tiger Prison Pass, Jiang Xin Lord Jiang?" β
Hearing Huang Qiong's rhetorical question, the fourth-grade military attache on the opposite side smiled arrogantly: "It is said that although the King of England is young, he is extremely intelligent, and today he is really as wise as a torch." No, the last general is the Tiger Prison Pass to control Jiang Xin. Although the British king has not been out of the palace for a long time, he is now famous all over the world. Today, His Royal Highness the King of England has taken great pains for Jiang someone. β
"If it weren't for King Jing, after His Royal Highness the King of England served as the envoy of Zhengzhou, he wrote several times to remind Jiang that although the King of England was young, he was extremely cunning by nature and often made unexpected moves. Let me be vigilant lest I fall prey to the king. This time, Jiang was a little closer, otherwise he would really have fallen into the way of the British king. β
However, although King Jing repeatedly reminded Jiang to pay more attention to the British king, he also repeatedly told Jiang that he was not allowed to hurt the British king. Although my prince has no chance to meet the King of England, he has been friends with His Royal Highness for a long time. This time, I will wait here to invite His Royal Highness to Zhengzhou for a gathering. β
Maybe that's what nature is, maybe it's something behind it. This Jiang Dutong was very arrogant, and in his tone, he didn't take Huang Qiong, the Zhengzhou envoy, and the five hundred cavalry around him in his eyes. That attitude almost told Huang Qiong directly, this invitation of King Jing, you have to go, and if you don't go, you have to go.
Regarding the threat in this guy's tone, Huang Qiong just smiled faintly and said, "This king has thanked King Jing for his kindness here." However, this king was ordered by his father to dispose of Zhengzhou as the right to know. The identity and King Jing happen to be opponents, and it is not very convenient to meet at this time. He also asked Jiang Dutong to have the opportunity to tell King Jing that if he could restrain himself from the precipice, this king and he would still be brothers. β
"If not, despite the king's reluctance, our brothers will have to meet each other on the battlefield. But then again, Jiang Dutong, don't open your mouth and shut up my lord. King Jing is not the master behind you, to tell you clearly, this king doesn't believe it at all. This king now advises you, no matter who the master behind you is, you are a dog at best. β
"What if your master's rebellion succeeds, you are just a minister. And a traitor, who can believe in reuse? If you fail, you don't need to be told your fate. Don't you think about it for your family? It's too late for you to repent now, and this king can play the emperor to save you from death. If you are obsessed, then don't blame the king for being ruthless. β
