Chapter 171: Sniper Plan
In the dark basement, Khotanhua brought useful information gathered in the past five days by using the forces he had built up over the past twenty years, "The captured one has committed suicide, but the Turks still released the news that they will be publicly executed outside the inner royal court in three days, and it seems that they will be executed
I came to lure the escaped people back to save people, and on the day of the execution, I heard that Chu Luo was also there. ”
"Traps?" Li Ang frowned, it seemed that Ashina Yunlie knew the Great Qin soldiers very well, and he was afraid that his companions alone would not be enough to impress the rest of the people, and even Chu Luo was used as a pawn. Li Ang looked at Khotanhua, and the coldness in his eyes made this heart strong
The dead man couldn't help but shudder in his heart.
"I need a detailed map of all the buildings in Sanli near the execution ground, and in these three days, send your wife and children out of the city and go to Daqin." Li Ang looked at Khotanhua, who was stunned, and said coldly, "What I need is a real dead man who has no worries, one who can be at any time."
Dead warriors. ”
"If you die in this battle, my wife and children, I will take care of you, and if I die, then my subordinates will take care of me." Thinking of Lin Fengshuang and Feng Siniang, Li Ang's voice was low, and then he looked at Dugu Xiao, "You also go out of the city."
Let's take his wife and children back to Daqin. ”
"Why, my lord, me?" Looking at Li Ang, who let him leave, Dugu Xiao's voice trembled.
"You don't have a truly cruel heart, and the battlefield here is not for you." Li Ang looked at Dugu Xiao, who wanted to say something, and smiled at him, "Strictly speaking, I'm not a good general, so you have to leave." That's an order. ”
"Whoa!" His lips trembled, and Dugu Xiao tried his best to straighten himself. The order was taken.
Looking at Li Ang, who gave orders coldly, Khotan Hua seemed to see that more than twenty years ago, he was an instructor in the camp of the dead soldiers, and his character of coldly calculating everything was too similar, for soldiers who had just enlisted in the army. They're not good generals, but they're about experience
For veterans who have been cruel on the battlefield, this is the general they want to follow, even if they will be sacrificed as pawns, but they will die worthwhile, and they will not leave any regrets in their hearts.
Dugu Xiao followed Khotanhua away, and in the quiet basement, only Li Ang, Huang Yuan, and Thule were left. Jumping in the candle flame. Li Ang looked at Huang Yuan, who always seemed silent, "Don't you say something." Maybe in three days, there will be no chance? ”
"I'm wondering, if I say that I want to quit now, will I be killed directly by you, the general?" Huang Yuan looked at Li Ang, raised his head that had been lowered, and asked seriously.
"Ahh Leon nodded. "When I found you, you told me that you were not willing to stay in a place like the Logistics Department of the Ministry of War for the rest of your life, so you became my soldier, and if you retreated, I would not hesitate to kill you."
"What a terrible general, it looks like I'm with the wrong person." Huang Yuan pursed his lips, picked up the sniper heavy crossbow beside him, disassembled it, and carefully wiped each part, his movements gentle. It's like caressing your lover's skin.
"If you regret it, after you go back. It's good to change the general. Leon laughed, and then looked at Thule, "Tulle, after three days, if things fail, you will find a way to escape and give this to Fengshuang and Siniang." ”
Silently taking the letterhead from Leon and carefully hiding it on his chest, Thule stood in his shadow as he had followed Leon in the beginning, like a wolf following his wolf king.
"General?" Huang Yuan glanced at Thule standing in Li Ang's shadow, and the hand wiping the crossbow machine stopped.
"If you really die, there is always something you want to explain." Li Ang smiled and looked at Huang Yuan, "Do you want to..."
"Does this count as shaking the morale of the military." Huang Yuan looked at Li Ang's smiling face and laughed as well, "Not counting the words, I think I also have some things to explain, if there is a case." ”
Li Ang didn't answer, just pointed to the table next to him with paper and ink, Huang Yuan put down the crossbow machine in his hand, walked to the table, and said to himself, "This kind of place is indeed very suitable for writing that kind of thing." So saying, in the dim light, he spread out a piece of paper and wrote
He got up and wrote slowly, and it was a long time before he folded the full letter and handed it to Tulle, and then went to wipe his crossbow again.
Leon sat still, without the slightest expression on his face, and no one could guess what he was thinking, and Thule ended up at his feet, just as he had fallen asleep on the side of the wolf king as he had fallen when he had been a child.
Two days later, Khotan Hua returned to the secret room with all the architectural drawings of the three miles near the execution ground, he lost his beard that had been worn for many years, and changed into a black dress, and the whole person was like a sharp blade out of an old scabbard, although it was still an ordinary middle-aged man
The appearance of a person, but there is an indescribable momentum on his body.
"The execution time is tomorrow at noon, take us over there first." Instead of looking at the maps stacked on the table, Li Ang stood up, Huang Yuan and Thule stood behind him, and Khotan Hua looked at the three of them with murderous intent in his eyes. "Let's go!" With Leon
With a soft snort, the four of them walked out of the basement.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Li Ang looked down on the nearby buildings from the restaurant about a mile and a half away from the inner royal court, and there were four sniper points he had selected, but only he and Huang Yuan were the ones who really sniped, and Thule and Khotan Hua would exist as deputies.
Sitting back on the chair facing the window, Li Ang drank the wine in the cup, looking at the buildings with the same style as Chang'an, there was a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't expect that Ashina Yunlie deliberately imitated the expanded royal court in Chang'an, which would bring such convenience to his assassination.
Putting down the wine glass, Leon looked at the two people on the table not far away, and looked over, those two people seemed to be observing the situation near and far, and more importantly, their faces looked very unnatural and looked a little stiff, obviously, these two people and him
In the same way, something was smeared on the face to hide what it was.
Li Ang retracted his gaze, the other party's alertness was unexpectedly high, and the strong troops of Great Qin were really unexpected, Li Ang poured wine into his cup, smiled and drank it. He thought that something like choosing an observation point, Da Qin
There shouldn't be anyone on the same level as him. After all, he has been trained to be completely different from the people of this era, but I can't imagine that those two people can find the best place to observe, I really don't know if it's only
Nothing more.
"What's wrong?" As an archer, Huang Yuan was extremely sensitive to gaze, he noticed the gaze cast on the table in the distance, and looked at the somewhat strange Li Ang, he lowered his voice and asked.
"Nothing." Leon put down his glass. Glancing at the three of them, "We should go back." With that, he stood up and told Thule to go to the checkout and leave.
The sky was getting darker, and there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets, and unlike the prosperity of Chang'an, the prosperity of the Turkic court was limited to daytime, and at night, due to the curfew, all the locals stayed at home. It's easy to dare not go out.
"Someone is following." Tulle suddenly stopped, and Khotanhua and Huang Yuan were also on guard. But Leon stopped them. "You go back first, I'll deal with it here." In a low voice, Li Ang gave the order. After hesitating for a moment, Huang Yuan and the others still complied with him
ordered, first returned to the stronghold.
It wasn't until Huang Yuan and the three of them disappeared from his sight that Li Ang walked up again. It's just that the pace is much faster. His figure moved in the night, leading the people behind him into the dark alleys.
Looking at the empty alley, the two people who followed showed puzzled expressions, the black hilt of the knife in their sleeves quietly slipped off, and the sound of light footsteps sounded behind them. In an instant, the two of them turned around, and there were already two more Great Qin-style ground infantry in their hands
Short knife, the cold air on the dark blade.
"You're the two of the last team of assassins!" Li Ang looked at the two of them and said coldly. "Why are you following me?"
"Who are you and why do you know about us?" The two of them had a sense of fear for the man hidden in the darkness in front of them. And the stiff and rigid Chinese accent also made them have to raise their guard.
Staring at the two men with knives, Li Ang spit out the walnuts that had been holding in his mouth, "Just like you, the one who assassinated Zhuluo." ”
When Leon spit out the walnut in his mouth, the two men with knives attacked at the same time, but their blades were caught by Leon empty-handed, "It's not a good thing to be overguarded. With a deep voice, the eyes of the two people holding the knife were full of incredulity, he
In the troops to which they belong, they can be regarded as one in a hundred, although the attack just now did not go all out, but the man in front of him took it so easily, and it was too powerful.
"Let's go." Releasing the blades of the two of them, Leon took a step back, keeping his guard on guard, ready to leave.
"May I ask which unit your Excellency belongs to?" Seeing that Leon was leaving, the tall man of the two hurriedly called out to him, they were going to save their companions tomorrow, and if they could get help from this person at this time, their chances of winning would be higher.
"The military hall is directly under you, and I can't tell you the rest." Leon looked at the two of them and replied, "If you want me to go with you to rescue my companions, then I'm sorry, I can't agree." ”
"I understand." Looking at Li Ang's eyes, the tall man nodded and said in a low voice, "It's me who lost my words." ”
"Your companion is dead, and tomorrow's execution ground is just a trap." Seeing the familiar eyes of the two, Li Ang said what he knew, after all, since he had met, he couldn't watch them die in vain.
"Thank you." The voices of the two dimmed, what Li Ang said, they had already thought of this possibility, but they didn't want to believe it, and they always had the idea that they could save their companions.
"I want to know how you're going to get out of here if you rescue your companions." Leon asked, this was his primary concern, the two people in front of him were undoubtedly elite, and he didn't believe that they would go out of their way to save people without a careful plan.
"In the waterway to the north of the city, there is a river that leads to the outside of the city." Seeing that Leon's gaze tightened, the tall man took out a map from his arms and threw it to Leon.
"You guys?" Looking at the tall man who threw the map to himself, Leon was stunned.
"Our mission has failed, our companion has died, and we have no face to go back." The tall man smiled at Leon, "I hope you can complete the task and kill Chuluo for us." ”
"Please bring these back." The tall man took out a string of iron cards from his body and handed them to Li Ang, "Please pass them on to Lord Changgong who is trapped in the camp, and say that we have not fallen into the prestige of the trapped camp." ”
Putting the string of military cards into his arms, Li Ang nodded heavily, he knew that any dissuasion was useless, for the soldiers who had already died in battle, all words were superfluous, and at the same time an insult.
"Please tell us when you will act." Seeing that Li Ang had put away the string of troop cards, the tall man said in a deep voice.
"Tomorrow." Leon said quietly, and then walked into the darkness behind him without looking back.
"Maybe he'll make it." Thinking of Li Ang's eyes when he left, the tall man muttered to himself, "I hope that when the time comes, we can help you." With that, he walked into the darkness with his companions.
In the dimly lit basement, Leon looked at the map that Khotanhua had brought and calculated the four sniper points he had observed in the afternoon against the nearby streets, in order to select the two best sniper points.
Morning finally came, and when Leon opened his eyes, the other three woke up, "Sleepless night! Whispering to himself, Li Ang looked at his sniper heavy crossbow, his crossbow had a slightly shorter range than Huang Yuan's, and with his marksmanship, within a thousand steps
500 is his limit.
"You're in charge of this." Li Ang took out the map that had been marked last night, pointed to one place above, towards Huang Yuan and Tule, then looked at Khotanhua, and pointed to another place, "You and I are in charge of this place." ”
"This is the waterway map out of the city, if you can't get out of the city in the first time, use the waterway above to go out of the city, wait at the place we agreed, if you don't see me in three days, don't wait for me, go back directly." Throw the recopied waterway map to Huang Yuan
With Tulle, Leon walked to his sniper crossbow and disassembled and wiped it down, as was his previous habit of preparing his weapons a moment before leaving for a mission.
"Remember, what I just said is an order." Li Ang looked at Huang Yuan, who wanted to speak, and said coldly, without any expression on his face, like a lifeless stone statue.
