Chapter 411: Chaos in the Clouds
"Smack!"
The military minister Shan Yu's big hand slapped the table. A horn cup, smashed into pieces by him. Beside him, the snake-like woman's body trembled and ducked away.
"My elite spy of the Huns, two hundred people, is enough to break through a city on weekdays, and now he has disappeared in Cloud City without a sound?" The news that the military minister Shan Yu got was sent back by the spies left behind in Cloud City.
They did not see the corpses of the Hun spies, so it cannot be said that they died, only that they disappeared.
On that day, Han Yan's special forces shot really cleanly. In the dark night of Cloudsdale, there was hardly a single storm or waves.
Therefore, the remaining spies of the Huns never dreamed that their people would be killed in silence. They don't want to think, and they don't want to believe.
Some have even begun to move these results theologically.
"Two hundred people are missing. Could it be that this Cloud City is really Longtan Tiger's Den? The military minister Shan Yu finally had a hint of vigilance.
But just as his vigilance had just risen, someone sent news from Cloudsdale.
This news made the Xiongnu's Shan Yu's frowning brow finally relax slightly.
"Sima Xiu has already gained the trust of that marquis in Cloud City. As long as our side is ready, we can take down the heads of all the generals in Cloud City. He also said that the missing Hun spies were hidden by him, so that he could strike a thunderous blow when the time came. Okay, what a Sima Xiu. I just like the appearance of such lackeys in the Han people. The military minister laughed with his palm.
When the snake-like woman saw that he was happy, she approached him again and whispered, "It is good that the king is happy." ”
"Happy, of course happy." The military minister Shan Yu's big hand grabbed the woman's waist and hugged her directly.
Compared with the boundless spring of the Huns in the big tent. The atmosphere in Cloudsdale is much more solemn.
In the past few days, in order to make a show, Yan Ming accompanied Sima Xiu to hang out in the most important place in Cloud City. The two of them almost ate and lived together, and Wei Qing also accompanied them, and the three of them were almost inseparable.
In Chang'an City, the army mobilized by Liu Che has set off.
There are two armies in the east, each with 50,000 people, one led by Han Anguo, and the other led by Gongsun Ao.
The other two armies were in the west, led by Wang Hui, and the other was led by Gongsun He. In accordance with Wei Qing's requirements, the four-way army adopted a roundabout combat plan.
In this way, fifteen days later, on the grassland at the junction of the Xiongnu and the Han Dynasty, the four-way army formed an encirclement posture that echoed each other.
As long as the Xiongnu dared to come out of the royal court of King Zuoxian, they would fall into the encirclement of the Han army.
With an army of 200,000, plus tens of thousands of soldiers led by Wei Qing, Li Guang, and Cheng Buxi, the Han army has gathered about 250,000 Han troops on the edge of Yunzhong City this time.
This was definitely the largest battle ever fought by the Han Dynasty against the Xiongnu.
After getting the news that all the troops were in place, Yan Ming immediately prepared and asked Sima Xiu to start moving.
Wei Qing had already prepared several death row inmates in the prison. Their figures are very close to Yan Ming and Wei Qing themselves, as long as they dress up, they can pretend to be themselves.
Sima Xiu declared to the Xiongnu spies that he had obtained a token to freely enter the county lord's mansion. Tonight, I will make a move and kill Yan Ming and Wei Qing in the county guard's mansion.
The spies of the Huns did not doubt him and immediately agreed.
Sima Xiu took out the map of the county guard's mansion. It contains a detailed record of where Yan Ming and Wei Qing lived.
"Remember, after killing, cut off the head. I'm going to put my head at the head of the city and show it to our Hun army. Sima Xiu said with a ruthless expression on his face.
The remaining spies looked up to Sima Xiu even more. They all clenched their fists and left.
It was night, Yan Ming was in the county guard's mansion, holding a scroll in one hand and a wine jug in the other, reading with relish.
In the other room, Wei Qing had already undressed and lay on his bed, ready to sleep.
Outside the county guard's mansion, the guards were still the same, not particularly nervous, nor particularly relaxed.
Sima Xiu personally came to the county guard's mansion. At the same time that the guard captain at the gate of the county guard mansion greeted Sima Xiu, those Hun spies had already infiltrated the county guard's mansion.
According to the drawings of the county guard provided by Sima Xiu. They all went to Yan Ming's residence and Wei Qing's residence.
Yan Ming was still sitting there reading, seemingly a little sleepy.
The two men in black touched Yan Ming's door, and the scimitar in his hand had been quietly withdrawn.
"He's reading."
"Let's do it."
"Well, cut off your head and leave. Don't fight. As the two men in black spoke, they suddenly moved.
They burst into a charge, and the two of them smashed through Yan Ming's door at once. Yan Ming, who was reading the book, suddenly woke up, and his eyes were completely blank.
Just when Yan Ming was at a loss, a scimitar had already swept through his neck.
Blood sprayed, and Yan Ming's head flew over, and before it could fall to the ground, he was grabbed by one of the black-clothed men.
"Withdraw!" The two men spoke, flying backwards.
"Ahh There are assassins! A little chamberlain suddenly turned out and saw Yan Ming's body lying on the ground, still holding a book and a wine jug in his hands, and screamed in fright.
The two Hun spies ignored the attendant, and as soon as they turned over, they rushed out of the room, and stamped their feet on the roof.
At this time, the county guard was already in chaos.
"Yan Hou has been killed."
"The county guard is dead. Capture the Assassins! ”
The guards of the county guard are all out of order. Bows and arrows continued to shoot upwards, flying past the two men in black. There were even two masters who rushed out directly and intercepted them on the roof.
At this time, Wei Qing, who was lying down to sleep, had also had his head cut off by his assassin.
The entire City Lord's Mansion has been messed up.
All the people were shouting for the Assassins.
Chengxin, Dajie, and Lei Quilt, the three of them have already taken action to intercept those black-clothed people.
The black-clothed spy of the Huns was also ruthless, desperately killing several companions, and forced the two of them to escape with the heads of Yan Ming and Wei Qing.
Sima Xiu took advantage of the chaos and quietly left the county guard's mansion. returned to the secret residence of the Hun spy in Cloudsdale to check whether the two heads were Yan Ming and Wei Qing.
The moment he saw the two heads, Sima Xiu's heart fluttered.
These two heads are simply too similar to Yan Ming and Wei Qing. For a moment, Sima Xiu felt that it was not the Xiongnu's spies who really killed Yan Ming and Wei Qing.
Seeing Sima Xiu's obvious daze, a spy asked, "Why did Mr. Sima lose his mind?" ”
Sima Xiu came to his senses, looked at the spy, and said, "After all, they used to be brothers, and when I saw the head, I felt a little sad in my heart. ”
"Mr. Sima is sad to see it, then we must have killed it correctly. It's just a pity that several of our brothers died. The Hun spy sighed and said.
It was night, and chaos began to rise in Cloudsdale.
