Chapter 252: Assassination (1)
From Youzhou, that is, the imperial capital of later generations, to Jingzhaofu, the route taken is roughly the same as the route of the rebels during the Anshi Rebellion, and all the areas passed along the way are the most elite areas of the Tang Dynasty.
It is precisely for this reason that the population and economy shrank dramatically after the war.
Starting from Fanyang, through Hebei Road, Hedong Road, and Duji Road, it crosses the Tianwei Tongguan Pass and enters Jingji Road, then Huayin and Zheng County in Huazhou, and goes west along Weishui to reach the edge of Jingzhao Mansion, Weinan County.
"Good boy, I'm afraid there can't be thousands?"
Chen Jin pretended to be a farmer, mixed in with the lively people, but actually counted the people and horses passing by, this is a huge horse team, in addition to the Fan Yang soldiers and horses headquarters, even those foreign captives who were tied to the horses are also a configuration of one person and two horses, which looks mighty and majestic.
Seeing the scene in front of him, Liu Ji realized that what Yan Zhuang said at the beginning was not false, and the size of An Lushan's pomp and circumstance in Beijing made anyone who wanted to make any move think twice, and he was no exception.
The first to lead the way is the local garrison, the number is not much, but familiar with the terrain, the number of Fanyang soldiers and horses is at least three thousand, everyone is dressed in Tang Army uniform, but there are all races, and most of them are foreign races, skilled bows and horses are only the most basic requirements, everyone is fierce, fierce eyes, at first glance is the kind of tiger and wolf army who is not afraid of death, in the battle of Anshi, he is very suspicious, even if the court wants to arrest at this time, An Fatzi can also rely on these three thousand to drag down the river, and have been killed back to Youzhou.
From the west of Weinan County, they walked the official road and the Weiheng line, all around are unobstructed plains, several artificial drainage canals, this area has become a rich granary, no wonder for thousands of years, Guanzhong is the starting place of the Han people, the capital of the emperor.
Followed all the way through Liyang and Xinfeng, seeing that he was about to arrive at Baqiaoyi, Liu Ji and his people couldn't find a chance to start, no matter where they stayed at night, the other party's vigilance would not be reduced in the slightest.
So who is Ann Fatty? It goes without saying.
Lishan, is their last possible chance, holding a Fuyuan crossbow, ready to come to a long-range sniper Liu Ji, once again saw the other party's cunning, exactly the same seven or eight cars, mixed in the team of thousands of people, from the appearance of the appearance of which car An Fat Man sat on, those elite miscellaneous cavalry, when passing under the mountain, obviously made a vigilant posture towards the side of the mountain forest,
This fat man is too vigilant, could it be that he has experienced assassination in history? He wasn't impressed.
"Let's go, go to Baqiao Station."
Liu Ji would not mess around, and he didn't want to sacrifice the lives of his brothers in vain, so he carried the crossbow machine behind him and sneaked into the mountains and forests with his men.
Baqiao, is a temporary bridge across the Ba Shui, the post is located not far from the bridge, this place is far from Chang'an City, it is already very close, according to the regulations, will rest in the post, waiting for the arrangement of the imperial court.
At this time, the post man with the post in the hall had already vacated the entire post house, as the post house with the largest area in the capital, enough to accommodate all the soldiers and horses here.
One after another, the gorgeous cars drove directly into the main courtyard, each ride was the same shape, and even the color was the same, Yi Cheng and the others were dumbfounded, and Ji Wen, who hurried over when he heard the news, was also stunned for a moment.
"Lao Ji."
From one of the cars, a tall figure walked up, and the whole person looked like a stocky mountain of meat, and he was tall, and everyone only felt that it was dark in front of them.
"County King, this is ......"
Every time An Lushan took a step forward, the ground would shake slightly, the fat on his face shrugged off the ground, the two curled beards under his nose, trembling slightly with his movements, and a pair of eyes squinted, as if he had never woken up.
"Lao Gao specially instructed, Yan Zhuang and Ah Hao don't know where to go, things are a little weird, a certain family has to guard against it, you have been here these days, have you found out something."
Ji Wen shook his head: "In Dr. Yang's mansion, they all said that they had never seen Mr. Yan leave, nor did they leave a book, they spent some thought, and they searched in the market, and indeed no one had seen him go out of the city, as for Tian Duwei, he had more than 300 people in his hands, so it was impossible for something to happen, I guess he went out of the customs, and he couldn't rush back for a while." ”
"Go in and say."
The two entered the main courtyard that had been prepared long ago, in order to accommodate his body, this room was specially renovated, the height and width were much larger than ordinary rooms, and even the bed was reinforced, An Lushan was not used to kneeling, sitting cross-legged on it, leaning on the cushion, but did not untie the clothes on his body.
"Yang Guozhong asked a certain family to solve the evidence of Li Xiangguo's collaboration with the enemy, you say, will he have any other thoughts?"
"The king of the county suspects that Mr. Yan's matter has another inside story?"
"Lao Yan is thoughtful, no matter what happens, he will never be like this, without a trace, and there is no explanation, Lao Gao suspects, he has an accident, looking at the world, who else can let him have an accident?"
"But why did Dr. Yang do this?"
"Hmph." An Lushan snorted coldly, scratched his back with his chubby fingers, and continued in his mouth: "What's not to understand about this, as soon as Li Xiangguo leaves, this king is his biggest opponent, this time when he enters Beijing, first he wants to join forces with a certain family and plant Li Xiangguo for a crime of collaborating with the enemy, but at that time, Li Xiangguo is not dead, now that everyone is dead, what is the point of coming to this hand again, Lao Gao asked a certain person to guard against him, if it is not too urgent, why let Absi, the thief, escape from Mobei?" ”
Ji Wen nodded, An Lushan's two major advisers, one is strict and the other is noble, that is, the old Gao in his mouth, the two rarely leave Fan Yang, this time Yan Zhuang deliberately came to sit in town, just to cooperate with Yang Guozhong, after all, Li Linfu put too much pressure on people, making it difficult for An Lushan to sleep.
"How's your arrangement here?"
"King Shou was a little hesitant, but he was already moved."
"When a man thinks he is like this, it's really better to die, if it comes to this point, he doesn't dare to let go, this king really plans to support him on the throne, as long as he thinks of it, he has to call his mother his mother, a certain family is very excited, haha."
An Lushan looked up to the sky and laughed, as if he really thought of something funny, Ji Wen laughed dryly, and it was easy for him to stop and tell him about the arrangements behind the court.
"On behalf of the suburbs?" An Lushan laughed again: "I can't imagine that he is really cheap, so let's see if this Shouwang has the courage first." ”
