Chapter 474: Self-Examination
Chapter 474: Self-Examination
It is said that Chen Long led the special operations team through the tunnel and came to the underground of the Gi Yu Palace at the end of the tunnel, but he couldn't break the stone top mechanism on the stone steps, and Chen Long regretted for the first time that he didn't bring Huang Yueying. After careful searching, I was lucky, and I found another way to find a secret passage connecting the tunnel with the underground mausoleum.
More than forty people quickly crossed the mausoleum, looking for the exit of the mausoleum, and suddenly heard the sound of noisy footsteps in the distance, Chen Long raised his right fist, and the entire team immediately stood still. With a wave of Chen Long's hand, all the team members had already scattered to find a place to take cover, and suddenly the mausoleum was already empty on the surface.
The cacophony of footsteps grew louder and louder, sounding like there were at least a hundred people, followed by the sound of heavy hammering, as if someone was hitting the wall with a sledgehammer. Chen Long couldn't help but glance at Lu Chang, thinking that it would be such a coincidence that he would meet a tomb robber at this moment?
Long Chen frowned and waved his hand to retreat, he didn't want to expose his whereabouts immediately, let alone kill those people who robbed the tomb mercilessly. The entire special operations team quickly retreated to the first dark room under the tunnel, and after extinguishing the torches, everyone squatted in the middle of those strange-shaped terracotta warriors and clay sculptures to hide.
Long Chen found a hidden dark place waiting for someone to break into, just enough to observe most of the central tomb. As the sledgehammer stopped, the sound of people gradually rang out, and it turned out that someone had broken through the stone wall on the perimeter of the tomb, and someone had entered the tomb. As the torch light lit up, the figures were full of shadows, walking in the direction of Long Chen.
Before the figure could be seen, a rough voice with the sound of an urn had already been heard: "What a thing, the tomb is all empty." No wonder it hasn't been stolen, it turned out to be a fake grave at all. Another rough voice immediately responded: "This one who has worked hard and lost money has not gained anything, if you let the marshal know, you will cut off your head with a knife." β
The two of them spoke one by one, and they all spoke with a thick northwest accent. Chen Long was surprised in his heart, these two mouths are called handsome, I don't know which handsome one they are talking about? If it wasn't the common people who came to rob the tombs, then which of the troops dared to be stationed in the suburbs of Chang'an?
The north gate of Chang'an was originally the defense area of the Qinglong Army, and outside the north gate, there was only Zhu Jun's camp in the direction of Jincheng, which was far away in the northwest, but the location was very partial, and it should be confronted or fought with Ma Chao and Ding Yi's troops at this moment. If the marshal in these mouths refers to Zhu Jun, then the problem is serious, could it be that Ma Chao has been defeated, and Zhu Jun's army wants to attack Chang'an from the north gate?
The torch light finally entered Long Chen's field of vision, and Long Chen desperately opened his eyes wide, trying to see the color of the person who came. Under the light of the torches, I saw a dozen figures dangling around, all of them going to the deep crypt to check. Although Chen Long couldn't see the color of the costume clearly, he was very sure that what he saw was the same standard of clothing, which was obviously a relatively uniform military uniform. Chen Long's heart was cold, the battle of Chang'an was about to end, but today there were more variables, first the unprovoked disappearance of the Son of Heaven, and then the troops that appeared out of nowhere.
The soldiers watched by the crypt for a long time, only to hear someone sigh: "This is obviously an unused mausoleum, and there is not even a coffin, how can there be valuable burial goods!" Everyone has worked hard in vain, let's disperse! β
The soldiers suddenly burst into a heckle and smashed the clay puppets and pottery horses around them to vent their anger. After the smashing, nothing was found, and the soldiers were no longer interested in lingering here, and they all withdrew from the tomb with torches. Suddenly, the tomb that was still noisy just now returned to a deathly silence, and Chen Long heard that there was no one else in the tomb, so he quickly went back to meet everyone.
After listening to Chen Long's story, Lu Chang asked, "Lord, it seems that we can only wait for the night to fall and then go to find out." This force came strangely, and it should be related to the personnel within Chang'an. β
Long Chen nodded and said, "It may also be related to the royal family or even the emperor, so it will be even more troublesome." Maybe the emperor's disappearance is also related, but we are still in the shadows, and we will find a way to find out tonight, that is. However, what I am worried about is the complexity of the troops around Chang'an, I am afraid that it exceeds the original Zhuge Kongming's assumption, in addition to a few troops on the surface, Emperor Han Xian and Wang Yun are afraid that they have recruited more troops and generals, forming an extremely hidden force. If one of the four King Kongs of our Blue Dragon Army is not careful, he may have to suffer! β
What Chen Long was talking about was far beyond the scope of Lu Chang's intelligence and ability, and Lu Chang couldn't think of any countermeasures except for nodding. Chen Long sighed slightly in his heart, Zhou Budo was thousands of miles away, and this little fat man was the most insightful in military affairs. The four King Kong troops that were originally very sure would now be attacked by the enemy if they were not careful, and even the safety of Chang'an itself might be threatened. The intelligence work is still not in place, Chen Long couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Fundamentally speaking, it was Chen Long who underestimated the intelligence of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty and had the idea of underestimating the enemy, so he easily arranged the war on the periphery of Chang'an in accordance with Zhuge Liang's military logic. I thought it was a simple task to be captured, but the situation was frequent, and the goal of coercing the Son of Heaven to order the princes was definitely impossible to achieve. Now the most likely outcome is that Emperor Xian of Han suddenly appeared from another big warlord, declared him Chen Long a coup d'Γ©tat and usurped it, and called on the people of the world to jointly crusade against him.
At that time, the Qinglong Army became a public enemy of the whole people, although it was nominally supported by the Empress Dowager, but in fact he deprived the royal family of power, and he was ambiguous with the Empress Dowager He, and he couldn't tell it even if he had a mouth. Chen Long laughed at himself, he thought to himself, there was the Dong Alliance in the past, and the Chen Alliance in the back, and his reputation in the Three Kingdoms was about to be left for 10,000 years, and I am afraid that he was not as good as Wang Mang who established a new dynasty.
Looking back now, my decision to completely take Chang'an this time and hold Emperor Han Xian hostage to hand over power was the stupidest decision since the crossing. What's even more stupid is that he didn't fully understand the form around Chang'an in advance, and he didn't know the secret power of Wang Yun and Emperor Han Xian, if someone in the Four Great King Kongs lost the battle, the lives of those who died would have to be counted on their heads.
Chen Long and the special combat team waited quietly in the darkness of the tomb, not knowing if night would fall outside the tomb. Chen Long's heart was depressed, his mind was full of thoughts, reviewing his mistakes, he was anxious and ashamed, and he wanted to fly out of the tomb immediately and go to inspect the battlefield of the Four King Kongs. was sighing in his heart, and Lu Chang, who went to the mouth of the tomb to investigate, came back and patted him on the shoulder, showing that it was dark on his face.
Chen Long finally stood up, although it was still dark in front of him, he could barely muster up a new fighting spirit in his heart. In any case, starting with the force we will face tonight, I, Chen Long, vow to turn the situation around and carry out my ideals to the end.
Find out what happens next, and listen to the next breakdown.
