In a Russian-style suburban estate, the Taiping and Moscow Janissaries guarded each other, and a few miles away were the positions of the two armies, but this time neither side was heavily armed, and the number was not large, it was only a security force to protect the respective monarchs.

Hong Tiancheng, who was dressed in a gilded imperial robe of the Emperor Han style, and Tsar Alexei, who was wearing a dark yellow robe inlaid with gold European nobles, confirmed the identity of the other party, handed over their muskets and swords to the guards guarding the gate of the manor, and stepped into the manor, which occupied a large area.

The inside of the manor had already been inspected several times by the Taiping soldiers and the Russian Guard, and no weapons were hidden, and according to Hong Tiancheng's strange request, he and Alexei Tsar entered the bedroom inside the manor house alone, where even the windows were covered by black cloth.

Outside the manor, dozens of Taiping soldiers and Moscow Praetorian Guards stood side by side, supervising each other and closely monitoring those who came out of the manor.

Tsar Alexei was not a fool either, although the safety of the manor was guaranteed and there were his own guards outside, he still issued a secret order in private.

If he and Hong Tiancheng didn't come out at the same time, or if Hong Tiancheng didn't come out himself, the Moscow Praetorian Guard guards who stayed outside the manor would have killed Hong Tiancheng no matter what!

Even if he will completely offend the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and form an undying mortal enemy, he will avenge himself!

The guards of the Moscow Janissary Guard who followed Tsar Alexei were all his close confidants, and under the long-term favor and loyalty training, they were only loyal to Tsar Alexei alone, so to speak, with glory.

It is not difficult for the great noble families of the European continent to cultivate a group of die-hard henchmen, let alone Alexei Mikhailovich, who is the noble Tsar!

Of course, the number of such diehards will not be too large, at most as the last guards and servants of the dead in times of crisis, it is definitely not enough to fight.

There is only one entrance and exit of the manor, and under the aim of dozens of muskets, even if it is a martial arts master, it is estimated that it is enough to choke, let alone an ordinary person like Hong Tiancheng.

It is this that makes Alexei Tsar let down his last guard and is willing to enter the secret room with Hong Tiancheng alone, even if Hong Tiancheng is really crazy and wants to plot against himself, he has to weigh the weight of dozens of muskets outside, the manor has been transformed, as long as Hong Tiancheng is not incarnated as a pangolin, it is impossible to leave here except for the entrance.

Of course, the reverse is also applicable to Tsar Alexei, but Tsar Alexei never thought of attacking Hong Tiancheng from beginning to end, for the simple reason that he didn't want to die yet......

After entering the secret room lit only by candlelight, Tsar Alexei politely said: "It is better to be famous than to meet, the king of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is really magnificent, and the dragon ...... Burst!!! ”

Before the Alexei Tsar finished speaking the opening remarks, Hong Tiancheng, who was close to five steps away, suddenly burst out with extraordinary agility, and a dark blade fell from the wide cuffs at some point, and turned flexibly in his hand, and under the rushing figure, it accurately pierced into the chest of the Alexei Tsar, and the other hand skillfully covered the Alexei Tsar's large stinky mouth, and suppressed the sore snort in his throat back, the sound insulation effect of this manor is not very good.

Before he finished speaking, Tsar Alexei, whose eyes were round, had only one thought in his mind in the moment of the passing of his life - those intelligence spies who provided Hong Tiancheng without any martial arts should go to the eighteenth layer of hell!

Puff puff puff three times in a row, under the cold gaze of 'Hong Tiancheng', the heart of Tsar Alexei's chest was stabbed, and the heart inside turned into pieces of minced meat, and the twitching Tsar Alexei lost the brilliance of life in just one second, and fell softly into the arms of 'Hong Tiancheng'.

After stirring Alexei Tsar's heart into rotten flesh, 'Hong Tiancheng' stabbed at Alexei Tsar's neck for the sake of safety, completely severing the opponent's artery.

The spurts of blood soaked the floor of the chamber a dark red, and the priceless velvet carpet took on two distinct shades of 'bright red'.

After confirming that Alexei Tsar could not die again, the hands-on 'Hong Tiancheng' took the napkin arranged in advance on the table, wiped his hands clean, and then kneaded his face with both hands, and a plain Asian face appeared in the secret room.

It is the special character Thousand Faces that Hong Tiancheng got by lottery!

In addition to the unpredictable disguise and bone shrinking techniques, Thousand Faces is a spy himself, if not as good as those who specialize in assassination, he is much stronger than ordinary people, after all, in his mission concept, he needs to be disguised to assassinate.

To deal with a pampered Russian tsar, all it takes is a chance to get close and a sharp blade.

Thousand Faces looked coldly at the corpse of Tsar Alexei on the ground, crouched down and began his 'copying' work.

An hour later, in a crackling sound of bones, the thousand faces with a face of Alexei Tsar perfectly reached the figure of Alexei Tsar, even if he took off his clothes, there was no difference in body size, it can be said that this is beyond the scope of human technology!

Of course, this is only reflected in appearance, if someone close to Alexei Tsar came into contact with him, there is a high probability that he will detect something unusual through the difference in speech habits.

It's just that compared to the huge political benefits behind impersonating Alexei Tsar, this risk is nothing to Hong Tiancheng!

Once he succeeded, he would have the Russian Empire without much effort, which would be worth much more than the unruly Cossack United Emirate!

If the Russian Empire were to be occupied, not to mention a long regular war of attrition, even if the Russian Empire was occupied, it would have to face a large number of resistance troops to fight for a long time.

The Russian Empire is located in the north, the environment is cold, and the Taiping army has been fighting a protracted war with the locals for a long time in this environment, which is obviously a very expensive thing, especially now that the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom is full of enemies, it is impossible for Hong Tiancheng to devote all his energy to attacking the Russian Empire.

The most important thing is that only the Russian Empire has the value of being replaced by a thousand faces, and once the monarchs of other European continental countries do something that violates the fundamental interests of the country, they will soon be impeached and even the nobles will collectively resist and step down, and the current Russian Empire Tsar, the power is at its peak, even if Andrei rebelled and suppressed many Duma nobles, he could be saved by the Tsar.
