Ximen Yokono elaborated on the plan and deployment, and everyone was excited and eager to try.

"Lord Wang, there is a sentence for the humble general, I don't know whether to say it or not." Someone said respectfully.

Li Hongxin bowed his head and said: "But it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

"Lord Wang, Wei Shutong suddenly issued an order, and he is mobilizing troops and horses from all over Xichuan." The man said: "It is said that it is intended to be used to suppress bandits, and the soldiers and horses gathered will be stationed twenty miles north of the city, some of the soldiers and horses have arrived today, and by tomorrow, at least two or three thousand people will be able to arrive, if these people know that something has happened in the city, will they .....?" He didn't say anything, but everyone present naturally understood the meaning.

Wei Shutong's officers and soldiers are converging in Chengdu, and even if Li Hongxin controls Chengdu's capital city, will he be able to deal with the officers and soldiers who are being gathered?

"As soon as Wei Shutong and Qi Ning die, these people will have no backbone." Ximen Yokono said with a smile: "The prince has already thought of a way to deal with them. After taking the Assassin's Mansion and controlling the armory, we can quickly control the silver treasury, this household has our people, and the silver in the Xichuan Treasury has hundreds of thousands of taels, and these silver are the best weapons to deal with the officers and soldiers outside the city. ”

"Changshi said that taking out the silver can make them put down their weapons?"

Ximen Yokono smiled faintly: "When soldiers eat food, these soldiers stationed in Xichuan are just to eat, and when the time comes, whether they fight for their lives to attack the city or take the silver and be obedient, it should be a good choice." Moreover, the gentry of Xichuan have already developed a grudge against the state of Chu, they have long been waiting for the prince to make a comeback, and after the prince controls Chengdu, he issued a clear order to ensure the safety of the lives and property of the merchants and gentry in the city, and these people will inevitably support the prince. He took out another scroll from his sleeve, opened it, and said, "I have already written a notice, as long as I kill Wei Shutong and Qi Ning, I will immediately transcribe this notice, and as soon as it dawns tomorrow, the whole city will be publicized." ”

Everyone saw that Li Hongxin and Ximen Yokono had already made arrangements, and their hearts were even more relieved.

Dai Ling said: "Everyone, let's not worry about the soldiers and horses outside the city, even if they attack the city, Chengdu has a thick wall, and the Chu army came to the city back then, and they couldn't take Chengdu by storming, not to mention the thousands of people outside the city?" They will not have enough food and grass at all, and they will soon disperse. ”

Li Hongxin finally said: "You don't have to think about anything else, as long as you take the Assassin's Mansion, the king will have his own arrangements for everything in the future." He said in a deep voice: "Someone! ”

A few people came in from the side door, the front two people held a big bowl, the back two people were holding two jars of wine, the big bowl was placed on the table mountain, and someone poured wine, Dai Ling took the lead in holding a wine bowl, and the others also stepped forward to hold one, Li Hongxin picked up a wine bowl with one hand, swept over the crowd, and said solemnly: "This action, do your best to obey the destiny of heaven, if it fails, this king and you live and die together, if it succeeds, from now on, this king will share the glory and wealth with you!" He raised his head and drank the wine from his bowl.

Everyone didn't talk nonsense, and they all drank the wine in their bowls.

"This king is waiting for your good news in the Shu Palace." Li Hongxin said: "I just hope that when the dawn comes, the entire Chengdu Mansion City will be in our pocket!" ”

Everyone knelt down on one knee and said in unison: "I will live up to the prince's wishes!" ”

At three o'clock, the entire Chengdu city was already a dead silence, even the latest to close the door of the Lingle Fang, at this time had already taken off the lanterns, the streets and alleys were deserted, and most of the people in the city had already fallen asleep.

Dai Ling led a team of 100 people and was hiding in a dim alley not far from the Thorn Mansion.

This time there were nearly 400 people, and the number was quite large, and just in case, the 400 people were divided into four ways and rushed towards the Assassin's Mansion respectively.

Of course, these people are well aware of the situation in the city, although there are yacha who occasionally patrol the streets at night, but they have already mastered the law of yacha patrols, know which street yacha will appear on which street at what time, and also know which streets yacha will rarely appear, and every time they cross a street, there will be spies in front of them to explore the way, Li Hongxin has always been ambitious, thinking that one day he can make a comeback, and the Jinguanwei in his hand is one of the forces he relies on the most.

Li Hongxin knew many years ago that if he wanted to control Xichuan, he must first control Chengdu, and if he wants to control Chengdu, he must first control the Assassin's Mansion.

It is precisely because of this that Li Hongxin and his cronies have studied the strategy of how to capture the Assassin's Mansion countless times over the years, which road to rush to the Assassin's Mansion, what time is the most appropriate, and what should be done when attacking the Assassin's Mansion, all of which have been planned in advance, and his Jinguanwei has been preparing all these years and has never neglected training.

After coming out of Xiqingfang, Jin Guanwei was divided into four roads, and all the men and horses of the four roads also received the battle plan, and the main purpose of leading this group of men was to kill Wei Shutong and Qi Ning.

Among this group of people, there are not only brave veterans, but also assassins secretly hired by Li Hongxin from Jianghu Mountain, whose martial arts are not weak, and tonight's action uses Dai Ling's team as a sharp blade to complete tonight's operation mission.

Dai Ling is a fierce general under Li Hongxin, and his martial arts are also excellent, and he is not afraid of death, but he has been hiding behind the scenes all these years, but not many people know the existence of Dai Ling.

A figure entered the alley like a ghost, came to Dai Ling's side, and said in a low voice: "General, there are four guards at the front gate of the Assassin's Mansion, and there are two guards at the back door, all of whom can be killed with crossbow arrows. ”

Dai Ling looked up at the night sky, there was no moon tonight, and the entire Chengdu Mansion City was shrouded in darkness, which was of course good news for tonight's operation.

Dai Ling bowed slightly, clenched the knife in his hand, glanced back, raised his arm and waved, and without hesitation, he was the first to rush out of the alley like a cheetah, and the soldiers behind him were lined up in three teams, orderly, all of them were coarse cloth clothes, but in their hands they were holding bright and dangling broadswords, and there were also four or five people with arrows and crossbows in their hands.

Although the Yiwei Dart Bureau was able to transport weapons in, the number of hundreds of armors was too large, and although the weapons were secretly transported from the East China Sea, there was no armor to transport them, and Li Hongxin naturally did not have armor stocks in his hands, so only a few soldiers such as Dai Ling wore armor, and the others wore the most ordinary folk coarse cloth clothes into the city in order to hide people's eyes and ears, and the costumes were different. It's like a gang of bandits entering the city.

Dai Ling was not worried that the other three groups of men would not be able to arrive in time, the time of the operation had been determined in advance, Dai Ling believed that the other groups of men and horses would be able to arrive at the pre-set location on time, as long as the signal was released from his side, then the four groups of men and horses would be able to attack the Assassin's Mansion at the same time.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the whole city is silent.

The team had quietly touched the alley diagonally opposite the Thorn Mansion.

Dai Ling poked his head out of the alley and looked at the Assassin's Mansion, outside the solemn Assassin's Mansion, four guards were guarding the main gate like stone statues, and the two stone lions crawling in front of the door seemed to have dozed off.

Dai Ling turned around and beckoned, and four soldiers immediately came out from behind, wearing wide cotton robes.

It's not uncommon for some people to put on cotton clothes as winter approaches.

The four of them obviously knew what their responsibilities were, they rushed out of the alley, and then slowly walked towards the main gate of the Assassin's Mansion, and Dai Ling had slowly pulled out the knife from the scabbard, with murderous intent in his eyes, staring straight at the main entrance.

The four soldiers in cotton robes were gradually approaching the main gate of the Assassin's Mansion, and the guards guarding the door had obviously sensed that something was wrong, and one of them pressed his saber tightly and said in a deep voice to the four of them: "Who is it?" ”

The four of them didn't pay attention, but their pace had quickened slightly.

"There is a night curfew on this street, so you can't come close." The guard snapped, "Leave quickly." ”

The other three guards were also very alert, their hands had already grasped the hilt of the sword, but one of the four soldiers suddenly sped up and ran towards the main entrance, and the three behind him also ran almost at the same time, and as they ran, they lifted their robes and took out the arrows and crossbows that had been prepared long ago, and they were all aimed at one of the guards, and they could not be fired, and before the other party could say anything, the four of them pulled the mechanism at the same time, and the swishing crossbow arrows were shot, fast and urgent.

These four people have undergone countless trainings, such operations have already been mastered, and they have been assigned targets in advance, "poof" a few sounds, crossbow arrows are shot into the guards' vital points, the four guards almost fell to the ground in response, and at this moment, a sound arrow has been shot into the night sky, making a piercing sound, it was Dai Ling who sent the signal, Dai Ling raised his knife, and shouted: "Make a meritorious service, just tonight, everyone will kill with me, rush into the house, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!" ”

He was the first to rush out of the alley and rushed straight to the gate of the Assassin's Mansion.

The four soldiers in cotton clothes shot the guards, but without delay, they quickly rushed to the edge of the high wall, threw away the arrows and crossbows in their hands, and took out a hook rope from each of them, and the front part of the rope was tied with an iron hook, and threw it to hook the wall, and then quickly climbed up along the rope, and his movements were extremely agile, and in the blink of an eye he had reached the top of the wall.

When they reached the top of the wall, they jumped down from the wall and rushed to the main entrance, which was to open it wide.

Dai Ling's feet were fast, and the soldiers behind him were also like wolves, rushing to the front gate, four soldiers in cotton clothes had opened the main door, Dai Ling was the first to rush into the Assassin's Mansion, and everyone behind him rushed in, the entire Assassin's Mansion obviously had not yet been broken in, and it was still quiet, hundreds of people rushed into the mansion, and the last few people immediately turned around and closed the door, and eight powerful soldiers lined up to guard the gate, which was to block the way for the people in the mansion to go out.

Almost at this time, the sound of killing was heard from other directions, and Dai Ling knew that the other three people had already followed the plan in advance, and after receiving the signal of the arrow, they launched a move into the palace at the same time.

His purpose was to kill Wei Shutong and Qi Ning, and he had naturally figured out Wei Shutong's residence in advance, held the big knife, and rushed straight to Wei Shutong's residence.

There was a dead silence in the Assassin's Mansion, on the way, there was no figure, Dai Ling led the people without a trace of resistance, and then went to the courtyard where Dewei Shutong lived, the courtyard door was even open, Dai Ling waved his hand, several people rushed into the courtyard first, and the courtyard was also full of people, and there was not even a light in the house.

Dai Ling strode to the door of the house, but the soldiers under his hand quickly dispersed with good training, surrounded Wei Shutong's residence, Dai Ling kicked open the door of the house, and the people under his hands rushed in like wolves.
