Chapter 24 Cao Pixing assassinated Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and Li Yong skillfully set up a match
After visiting the school field and martial arts competition of the Wei army, Cao Cao held a feast at noon to entertain the envoys of the two routes. In his congratulatory speech, Cao Cao said loudly: "Thank you for coming here to discuss the world's major affairs!" Now you and the others have gone to the school to witness the future people helping our Wei army to train the sergeants, and I have also heard about the martial arts competition between General Zilong and the future people, so you must know the courage of the future people.
The ancients said that "those who know the times are Junjie", please go back to report to the lords, and hope that they will think about the people of the world and achieve the unification of the world as soon as possible, otherwise the future people will go to the conquest with the prime minister, and don't blame the old man for being kind at that time. ”
"I'll wait until I go back to persuade the lord and convey the prime minister's intentions to reach the important event of peaceful reunification of the country as soon as possible." Someone in the envoy group of Sun and Liu echoed loudly.
The luncheon was held in a seemingly harmonious atmosphere, but everyone had their own mixed feelings. Today's Zhao Yun is very depressed, the once famous Zhao Zilong actually suffered a crushing defeat in today's competition, so he has been depressed. After Cao Cao saw Zhao Yun's condition, he personally came over to toast him and comforted him: "The future people are brave, and it is not a pity to lose to him; Today, except for General Zilong who dares to challenge the people of the future, who else in the world dares to compete with the people of the future? After speaking, he drank a glass of wine with him, so that he regained his spirits.
After the luncheon, the envoys were about to return, and when they parted, Cao Cao gave each of them some gifts, and personally gave Sun Quan and Liu Bei a letter for them to bring, and then the people of the two envoys set out on their own journeys.
After bidding farewell to the envoys, Cao Cao took Zhang He to Li Yong, asked them to step up the training of their sergeants, and asked Li Yong if he could teach himself how to make guns or send them some guns.
Li Yong had no choice but to say: "This gun is very difficult to make, and it cannot be manufactured by the current technology, so you should step up the training of the weapons and some new tactics in your hands, and we will attack the enemy in the future; After conquering the enemy city, you only need to follow and accept the enemy city. Cao Cao could only nod and said: "After the world is unified, you will teach this skill and me again, so that the people of the present generation can enjoy the magical technology of your dynasty." ”
Under the training of Chen Tao and others, the elite soldiers under the command of Zhang He improved their skills in all aspects, and they abandoned the tactics of the current dynasty of soldiers against generals and generals, but used the existing equipment such as bows and arrows, spears, swords and shields, and increased the training of archers. They re-studied the tactics and the arrangement of troops, so that they could use different weapons from far and near; For those who lead the horse, three to five archers will shoot a salvo at the same time (mainly the horse, the target of the horse is large, and it is easy to be shot), as long as the horse falls, the horse will lose its power and become infantry.
In addition, the use of swords and shields have been strengthened, as well as various new tactics. After passing these new training methods, the combat effectiveness of the Wei army has been greatly improved. After Cao Cao heard about it, he also came to the scene to observe, and he was also very satisfied, and even praised Li Yong for their good training.
Just when they were intensively training the Wei army, in a dark and windy night, a major incident occurred in the palace, several assassins rushed into the palace to assassinate Liu Xie, the son of heaven, but fortunately, the emperor's personal guards resisted desperately, so they did not succeed; These bold masked assassins were also highly skilled in martial arts, and after killing and wounding several guards, they retreated.
After Cao Cao learned of this, he was shocked into a cold sweat and thought: "If you let him succeed and kill Emperor Xian, then it will be a big trouble, and the people of the world still don't think that he did it, so can people still help me in the future?" So he scolded angrily and wanted to dismiss Zhang Tao, the chief of the palace guards.
Li Yong hurriedly came over and said to Cao Cao: "Prime Minister don't be angry, let alone remove the head of the guard, thinking that the assassin is in the dark, they are coming, naturally they can't be guarded against!" This assassination has not been successful, and I am afraid that it will come again, so it is better to let me wait to capture him; Only by eradicating the assassin can the Son of Heaven rest easy. ”
Cao Cao thought for a moment and replied, "That's it! The assassin will definitely come back if he fails this time, and his martial arts are high, so it is better to let you and others come here to guard, and then transfer the palace guards to send you, and be sure to kill the assassins all! ”
Li Yong clasped his hands into fists and said: "Thank you King Wei for your trust, as long as the thief dares to come again, I will let him come back!" Cao Cao nodded and said, "I'm waiting for good news!" With that, he left. Maybe it was God's help, so he gave Li Yong and them the opportunity to show their strength.
After being ordered to protect the palace, except for leaving Chen Tao to continue to train Zhang He and them as soldiers, Li Yong and the other three immediately rushed back to the palace for fortification; Later, under the leadership of the chief of guard, they went to the palace wall for a field trip.
The wall is about four meters high and about 400 meters in circumference, and the walls are made of bricks, which looks solid. They carefully examined the perimeter of the palace walls, ascertaining where the Assassins could easily enter the palace and the routes by which they might carry out the assassination.
After drawing a roadmap based on the survey, Li Yong and his team decided to install monitors and infrared sensors in several important places. In order to ensure that nothing went wrong, he asked Zhang Tao to arrange for someone to hire a blacksmith to make each iron bar with a length of three meters and a half centimeter in diameter, and there were two connected falcon buckles at both ends, a total of 400 pieces. In addition, Zhang Tao arranged for people to nail wooden stakes about one meter high and 10 centimeters in diameter at intervals of two meters on the top of the wall.
On the morning of the third day, all the iron bars were pulled over, and Li Yong instructed them to divide the iron bars into two parts (the middle distance between the upper and lower ones was thirty-five centimeters) along the wooden stakes that had been nailed to the wall yesterday, and then connect the two ends with falcon buckles to form a whole.
The length of each side of the palace wall is about 100 meters, the circumference is 400 meters, and the upper and lower iron bars need 800 meters, so that nearly 280 iron bars are used.
Then they installed infrared sensors and monitors in the corners around them, and then drove the "Crossing" to the square in the middle of the palace, connected the infrared sensors and infrared monitors with wires, and then connected the positive and negative poles of the two wires from the vehicle to the upper and lower iron bars of the fence respectively, so as to form a simple power grid. Finally, they adjusted the voltage and current in the "Crossover" to the appropriate level and tested it. When everything was ready, it was time for the Assassins to come to the door.
For five nights, they waited in the car for the arrival of the Assassin, but the Assassin never showed up, as if he knew that someone was in ambush, and everyone was a little discouraged.
Some people thought that the Assassins might not come, but Li Yong encouraged them to calm down, not give up, and always stay on duty in two shifts in the "Crossing".
God paid off, and sure enough, at about four o'clock in the morning on the seventh day, I heard an alarm from the infrared sensor in the northwest corner of the wall. It was Wang Yan on duty at the moment, and she immediately stared at the image in the infrared monitor in the northwest corner of the monitor. The image on the infrared monitor is clear, and the picture shows a total of five people under the wall outside the wall, two of them are throwing ropes to the wall, and the grappling hook of one rope has firmly grasped the head of the wall, and the person is about to pull the rope to climb.
"There is a situation!" Wang Yan let out a low voice, and everyone jumped up and took up their weapons one after another. Li Yong whispered: "Wang Yan, don't turn on the power grid now, wait until they all enter the palace, and then turn on the power, you stay in the car to continue tracking, and report the assassin's whereabouts and location in real time; Chen Tao hurriedly occupied the commanding heights of the palace and killed the assassin decisively when he saw it; Dahai, you quickly inform the chief of the guard, Zhang Tao, and ask him to lead the imperial guards to protect the Son of Heaven closely, and then you lead some of Sun Tao's guards to go out of the palace gate and detour to the northwest corner outside the city wall to eliminate the assassin's responders, and it is best to catch them alive; Wei Hong and I went to the palace to intercept it. So everyone started to go their separate ways.
After a while, Wang Yan's voice came from everyone's headsets, and three assassins had already entered the palace, and it seemed that there were two more people answering outside.
In fact, these days, the chief of the guard, Zhang Tao, has already arranged for people to do strict protection work, although the weather is cold at night, but they are still knives in their hands, always maintain a fighting posture, these days, their guard work is also "tight inside and loose outside", so outsiders can not see the security situation in the palace at all.
After Chen Tao rushed out of the vehicle, he hurriedly ran to the roof of the palace hall. He had done his homework before, surveyed the terrain and prepared a ladder to climb in the right place, but tonight it was still difficult to climb because of the low temperature and the slippery frost on the roof tiles.
Chen Tao climbed cautiously, and it took about five or six minutes to climb to the roof. Once on the way, he quickly found the high ground and found a good position, then set up his gun and waited for the arrival of the Assassins.
Li Yong and Wei Hong quickly came to the front and back doors of the emperor's dormitory with guns, and met Zhang Tao's ambush here. In addition, after Haihai informed Zhang Tao that the Assassins had entered the palace, he quickly led some of Zhang Tao's guards out of the palace gate and detoured to the northwest corner to capture the Assassins' responders.
After Li Yong and the others laid an ambush at the front door of Emperor Xian's dormitory, they saw two black-clothed masked men moving quickly along the wall of the house towards Emperor Xian's dormitory.
Suddenly, a strong light shone on the two Assassins, and they shouted, "Catch the Assassins!" For a moment, the people who were lying in ambush around seemed to have come out of the ground, and a dozen people surrounded the two assassins at once, and then the torches around them were lit one after another, illuminating the entire palace as if it were daylight.
The two Assassins were stunned for a moment, then turned and ran; Li Yong took the lead in wearing a protective suit, he held the strong flashlight in his left hand to shine forward, and rushed forward with a pistol in his right hand.
Li Yong accelerated to chase after him, getting closer and closer to the person behind him, seeing that there were still more than ten meters to catch up, he saw that the man in black running behind turned around violently, and raised his right hand, "Whoosh!" With a bang, several small black dots flew towards him in a trance.
"There's darts!" Li Yong shouted and quickly avoided to the right, just listening to "Bang! Something hit his left arm hard, and it was supposed to be a dart, but fortunately he was able to block it in his protective suit.
The palace guards who were chasing after him were not so lucky, and the man who followed him exclaimed "Ah! After a miserable scream, the other pursuers were so frightened that they fell down after seeing the people in front of them being knocked down by hidden weapons.
After throwing the dart, the assassin shouted at the people running in front of him: "Big brother, go away, little brother will be broken!" After that, he quickly hid behind a pillar and kept firing darts at his pursuers.
Li Yong also immediately hid behind a pillar to observe, spotted the assassin, and aimed his gun at him, just as the assassin raised his hand again and was about to launch a dart, he seized the opportunity to "Bang!" A shot hit the man's wrist.
The man snorted, and the dart fell to the ground, and he ran away with his left hand and his right hand. Li Yong saw it clearly, raised the gun and aimed at his right leg again, "Bang!" A shot hit him in the right leg, and the assassin said, "Ah! And it went down.
"Catch the assassins!" "Catch it alive!" Seeing that the Assassin had been defeated, the pursuing guards jumped to their feet and rushed towards the fallen Assassin.
At this time, listen to the "Whoosh!" on the roof opposite. With a sound, an arrow flew over and rushed to the guard at the front, and the man let out a "Ah! He fell to the ground with a thud. Li Yong looked back and saw that a sharp arrow had hit him in the throat, and the poor man fell down and kicked his leg and did not move.
Li Yong hurriedly turned sideways and took a strong flashlight to shine on the roof opposite, only to see that there was a person on the roof forty or fifty meters away from him who was about to fire again with a bow and arrow, and suddenly was stabbed by the strong flashlight used by Li Yong and couldn't open his eyes, just when he wanted to dodge sideways, he heard a "bang!" from the roof of the palace hall. At the sound of a gunshot, the man with the bow and arrow rolled off the roof like a bundle of straw.
It turned out that this assassin was hit by Chen Tao with a Type 95 assault rifle at the commanding heights of the main hall. In fact, as soon as Chen Tao set up the gun, he saw this assassin running onto the roof. This man was very good at light skills, walking on the roof as if he were walking on the ground, and after a while he came to the position just now and lurked, but this kid never thought that someone was already preparing to ambush him at the commanding heights of the roof.
At that time, in order not to alarm Li Yong and the assassins on the ground, Chen Tao did not shoot. After a while, the kid quickly moved to the low-lying place at the junction of the roof and lay down, Chen Tao couldn't see him because of his obstructed vision, and he couldn't move the position of the gun again in order to prevent being discovered, so he could only wait for the opportunity here.
Fortunately, when Li Yong and the others were chasing the assassin on the ground, the sound of gunfire also alarmed the assassin on the roof, so the assassin stood up and covered the assassin on the ground with a bow and arrow, and when he shot the first arrow and was about to shoot the second arrow, he was irradiated by Li Yong with a flashlight and wanted to turn his head to dodge, Chen Tao saw it and seized the opportunity to shoot him dead.
The assassin who fell to the ground struggled to get up and staggered forward, but his leg bone was broken, and the pursuers behind him were about to chase after him, so in order not to be captured alive, he raised his head and shouted to the man who fled in front of him: "Take care, big brother, go first for my brother!" So he drew his short sword with his left hand and quickly wiped it off his neck, and then slowly fell.
At the same time, several gunshots rang out from the southwest outside the wall, followed by the sound of someone shouting, and Li Yong knew that this was the Great Sea Leader who was engaged in a battle with the Assassin responders outside the wall.
Li Yong ignored them and continued to lead people to chase in the direction where the assassin had fled just now. At this moment, he suddenly saw a dazzling spark on the wall in the northwest, accompanied by the sound of "z, z", so Li Yong led everyone to quickly run to the place where the sparks came out of the wall.
This is exactly what it is: worried that it will be difficult for the country to sit still, Cao Pi is trying to murder the emperor
Li Yong skillfully set up a confrontation to finally annihilate all the assassins
