Chapter 404: Night Attack!
Tang Ning only realized tonight what it means to walk the rivers and lakes, and his skills are not pressing.
Learn one more craft, maybe you will be able to use it when you can, although Li Tianlan's martial arts are higher than him, but when it comes to stealth and stealth, she is still slightly inferior to herself in terms of the ability to sneak and enter the house.
Even if she flies higher and farther, this kind of thing can climb over the wall has a lot to do with technology and proficiency.
After Tang Ning rescued several people, he found out that the middle-aged woman who knew Gu art next to the second prince was very insidious, and he used poison for King Zhou and several generals, some of them used poison, some people used Gu, and they were all different Gu worms, which made him spend a lot of effort.
When they finally infiltrated the mansion of the rebel general named Zhang Dayuan, they did not find him.
"You go back to the inn first." Li Tianlan looked at him and said, "I'll leave the rest to me." ”
Just now, she had already estimated the time, and ordered those generals to send troops to attack the Zhou Palace's mansion at night, which was bound to wipe out the second prince and his party.
The Gu poison has been solved, and once there are no worries, there is no suspense for the soldiers in Cangzhou City to deal with the more than 100 unprepared grassland barbarians.
Even so, he was still a little worried about her, Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I'll be with you." ”
The Mansion of King Zhou.
Half a month ago, the mansion of King Zhou had been occupied by more than 100 grassland people, and the guards in the palace were all replaced, and King Zhou became a puppet.
The courtyard where King Zhou is located is guarded inside and outside the courtyard, including King Zhou, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will.
Zhou Wangfu, somewhere in the house.
A burly man squeezed out a smile on his face, looked at the second prince, and said: "Second prince, the army of the imperial court is about to arrive, plus the defenders of the neighboring states, with our strength, there is no way to compete with them, the second prince should consider a strategy to withdraw earlier." ”
The second prince looked at him, a smile appeared on his face, and said, "General Zhang is thoughtful. ”
The man immediately arched his hand and said, "Since Zhang has already submitted to the second prince, he naturally has to think about the second prince." ”
The second prince glanced at him and said, "You go back first, take care of your people, and don't let them make any more trouble." ”
"The second prince can rest assured, his subordinates will restrain them well." The man looked at him, bowed and said, "Subordinates retire." ”
The second prince waved his folding fan and watched him walk out, a smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
He didn't think that the rebels in these five states would have any climate, as long as the Chu State was in chaos, it would be of great benefit to the grassland.
The Han people have a saying called "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth", Chen and Chu secretly supported the two divisions of Jiagu and Shuhu, disrupting the pattern of the grassland and hindering the pace of the unification of the Yan Division.
By the time the army of Chu came to the city, they had already withdrawn, and this mess was left to them to clean up.
As soon as he thought of this, he was about to close the door and rest, when suddenly there was a chaotic sound of footsteps in the courtyard.
A figure hurriedly broke in and said in a panic: "Second prince, it's not good, there are a lot of soldiers and horses outside, and we are surrounded!" ”
The second prince turned his head sharply and said sharply, "What did you say?" ”
At this moment, the middle-aged woman also walked in and said, "For some reason, several defender generals in the city rebelled and led people to surround the palace. ”
The second prince's face sank and asked, "Aren't they afraid of the Gu worms in their bodies?" ”
The middle-aged woman said, "I'll take a look." ”
In the courtyard, the man had not left yet, and he was stunned when he heard this, and then immediately said, "I'll go out and have a look first!" ”
At this moment, in the palace of King Zhou, there was already a mess, and someone ran over quickly, panicking: "Second prince, King Zhou, King Zhou is gone!" ”
"What?" The second prince's face changed again, and he asked, "Where else can he go?" ”
The man said: "We went in to check, there is a secret passage under the bed in King Zhou's room, I don't know where it leads." ”
The second prince could no longer remain calm, and slammed the folding fan in his hand to the ground, his face extremely gloomy.
Someone stepped forward and said eagerly: "Second Prince, let's escort you out first." ”
"Let's go!" The second prince said in a deep voice and hurriedly walked to the backyard.
Sooner or later, the army of the Chu court will arrive, and they have already been fully prepared, as long as they can escape from the palace, they will be able to retreat.
The gate of the palace of King Zhou.
Countless soldiers armed with torches, and rows of archers stood in line.
King Zhou hid behind the archers, looked at a centipede that was still wriggling on the ground, and couldn't help but vomit.
After vomiting for a while, he arched his hand to Tang Ning and said, "Thank you for saving me." ”
This King of Zhou also has a lot of means, and he was able to escape from the palace by himself, Tang Ning waved his hand casually, and looked ahead again.
The gate of King Zhou's mansion was closed, and a head poked out of the wall, looked at the young general at the front, and said loudly: "Xu Ling, what are you doing, do you want to rebel?" ”
Shout!
In response to him, the young general raised his hand and arrows.
The man fell off the wall, and the middle-aged woman stood under the wall, looked out of the wall, took out a piccolo from her sleeve, put it to her mouth, and blew it.
The sound of the flute flickered fast and slow, high and low, and the man fell to the ground, his forehead and neck bruised, and something seemed to rise and fall under his skin, holding his head and wailing.
The middle-aged woman leaned against the wall, quickly glanced outside, and saw that the few generals in front of her were all right, and her face changed suddenly.
"Their Gu has been unraveled!" She said in shock, and her figure retreated sharply, and she soon disappeared into the darkness. This time they can control Cangzhou, their only reliance is poison Gu, without this deterrent, there is only one way to escape.
Outside the door, a young general named Xu Ling waved his hand and said, "Hit the door, take down all the grassland people in the palace, and if there is resistance, you will be killed!" ”
As soon as he gave the order, more than a dozen people hugged a thick piece of wood and slammed the palace gate hard.
"You, what are you doing......" Wan Yanyan's voice came from behind Tang Ning.
He turned his head, looked at Butcher Zheng and Wan Yanyan who came over, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
Butcher Zheng looked at Yan Yan and said, "She wants to come out to take a look, so I brought her here." ”
Tang Ning looked at Wan Yanyan, who was pale, looked at Butcher Zheng, and asked, "Why didn't you stop her?" ”
Butcher Zheng looked at him and asked, "Did you say you wouldn't let her run out?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the gate of the palace had collapsed with a "boom", and the archers rushed in first, and Tang Ning stood outside, and he could also hear the screams and angry scolding inside.
Most of the voices of angry scolding are in the grassland dialect.
Wan Yanyan stood in place, her face pale, her body trembled, and Tang Ning stood behind her, not comforting her.
What the second prince and what they have done has touched the bottom line of the Chu State, and there is almost no room for recovery, and the soldiers of Cangzhou will fight with them endlessly.
This is war.
The surroundings of King Zhou's mansion have been surrounded, and there are only more than 100 of them, and the possibility of breaking through is very small.
There was no movement inside the gate soon, and Wan Yan Yan quickly ran in, looking at the corpses lying on the ground inside, standing in place, as if struck by lightning.
The Cangzhou defenders showed no mercy to the grassland people in the palace, and after the archers rushed in, they directly released their arrows, and more than ten grassland people did not even do a moment's obstacle, they were all shot into hedgehogs, and the corpses were on the spot.
Wan Yan Yan squatted down, shook a man vigorously, with tears in her eyes, and said loudly: "Ulu, Ulu!" ”
The man spat blood in his mouth and said with difficulty: "Princess, hurry, go quickly!" ”
He said only that, and then his head tilted to the side, and he said no more.
Wan Yan Yan sat on the ground, saw Tang Ning walk in, immediately stood up, shook his arm, and said, "Stop, let them stop!" ”
Tang Ning looked at Wan Yanyan, who was in tears, shook his head, and said, "It's impossible for them to stop." ”
Once a war has begun, how can it stop before one side surrenders or dies?
He regretted a little that he had brought Yan Yan over and let her stay in the army, and he didn't have to see this scene with his own eyes.
Wan Yan Yan's body trembled, raised her head, looked at him deeply, turned around, and ran quickly towards the palace.
