Chapter 45: Someone's Coming! Escort!
The princes retreated angrily, and the plot of the princes of the beacon fire drama passed quickly, and at this time, Chen Yu and Bao Xi finally regained their "freedom of action".
"System prompt: Please return to the palace of Haojing (the capital of the Western Zhou Dynasty) with Bao Xi."
The next step was to return to Kyoto, not far from Lishan, and wait for the arrival of the enemy army and the outbreak of his own rebels.
"Daji, come here." Chen Yu said to Daji, who was waiting behind him.
"Well, it's not okay to do too much on the battlefield......" Daji smiled demonically and walked up to him, "What's the matter?" ”
"Give you a temporary princess to do." Chen Yu said with a smile.
“……”
The two immediately went down Lishan side by side, while Bao Xi, together with Zhen Ji and Zheng Dan, pretended to be palace maids, followed behind, and walked down step by step. Chen Yu deliberately took a few quick steps, shook off his elite-level "guard" NPCs, and walked to the ordinary NPCs stationed nearby with Daji and the others, and observed the looks in the eyes of the NPCs.
After the NPCs saw him and Daji, their faces were respectful, but they didn't have any doubts, and they didn't deliberately look at Bao Xi behind Chen Yu again.
Chen Yu was secretly happy in his heart.
It seems that as he thought, although the system can directly determine whether he returned to Hojing with the real Bao Xi as required by the results, but the general NPCs don't know Bao Xi, in their eyes, the bewitching woman next to the "king" Chen Yu who has a close relationship with him must be Bao Xi. Different from the general online game system, Bao Xi's head does not have the name of "Bao Xi", the NPCs in the main god game, and there is no "God's Eye" general recognition function, they only know the generals in the army, know their bosses, know their own kings, but for the palace maids and concubines inside the palace, they obviously don't know, which is also relatively close to historical facts, because in history, palace maids and concubines have always been forbidden to have casual contact with outsiders (to prevent cuckolding the emperor...... Except for a few elite NPCs who followed Chen Yu as soon as they appeared as "palace attendants" or similar roles, ordinary NPC generals and soldiers didn't know the real Bao Xi - they just needed to know that she was a "monster" who "brought disaster to the country and the people".
Chen Yu even suspected that if there were two players involved in this quest, and he could take off the king's costume and give it to another male player to put on, perhaps the enemy army from the ethnic minority would even think that the male player was the king of Zhou You, because the enemy army did not have a photo of the king of You.
Historically, there have been countless cases of many important people finding a substitute to die on their behalf when the city was broken and absconding with their own makeup. During the Three Kingdoms, Lu Bu defeated Cao Ying, and even asked "where is Cao Ying" in front of Cao Ying, and later when Ma Chao beat Cao Ying, he also chanted Cao Ying's physiognomy to let the soldiers find out which was Cao Ying's "deeds". Cao Ying is still so "well-known and unknown", not to mention the praise thousands of years ago.
Chen Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Although it is impossible to abscond by putting on makeup (because you can't take off your costume and can't find a stand-in), in this way, Bao Xi's safe surname is greatly enhanced, and the possibility of passing this level is greatly increased.
However, since he can't suck blood, the danger must still be great. In addition, the "play" has not yet been done enough.
Chen Yu still needs to act one more step.
Ten minutes later, the group returned to Hokyung, which was near Lishan Mountain. The last mandatory requirement of the system has been completed, and now, the "plot" can finally be played freely and unfolded freely.
The dungeon was a little quieter at this time, and nothing happened right away, but it would be more accurate to say that this kind of quietness was "the eve of the storm".
Chen Yu immediately explained his thoughts in detail to Zhen Ji, Daji, Zheng Dan and Bao Xi, and then arranged the actions of the next few people.
First of all, Zheng Dan continued to go out to assassinate. Anyway, Zheng Dan can't fight positional warfare, and it's useless to stay, even if it's a life-saving dungeon, if you can brush up a little more experience, you have to brush more. Moreover, when necessary, it is not difficult for Zheng Dan to shuttle back from the army of ten thousand people silently to cooperate with Chen Yu.
Then, Zhen Ji and Bao Xi continued to stay in the palace as palace maids, and found a slightly hidden place to hide as soon as possible.
In the end, Da Ji was ready to add blood medicine and leave the palace with Chen Yu - to finish the final scene.
Chen Yu has already ordered the civil officials in his capacity as the king to order the entire army in Kyoto, and His Majesty the King will next "review" the entire city defense troops with the princess.
The king's order was not to be disobeyed, so the officials who received the order, though reluctant, quickly passed the order, and a few minutes later, a large number of generals and soldiers gathered in front of a high platform in the west of the city. The NPCs all looked reluctant, and when they saw a bewitching woman standing next to the king, their faces showed a faint dissatisfaction.
It seems that even if you are the greatest speaker in history, you don't want to talk about the "people's heart" at this time.
However, Chen Yu had no intention of saving his heart. The image of the faint monarch has long been established, and even if he swears to the sky at this time to be a Ming monarch in the future, it is estimated that no one will believe him.
So Chen Yu stretched out his left hand and hugged Daji beside him into his arms, and the next moment, he laughed out loud with a dazed face-
"Ai Fei, how about looking at the king's garrison?"
"Looks like it's all vulnerable, ...... King."
Daji leaned softly on top of him and replied with a seductive look.
“!!!”
The NPCs below were about to burst into flames.
Nima! To say that we are vulnerable? If you're not the king's concubine, believe it or not, I cut you?!
"Well, I thought I could let them perform a fight scene in front of Concubine Ai," Chen Yu heard Daji say this, and then frowned, "Since Concubine Ai said so, forget it." ”
Then he waved his hand impatiently at the NPCs below-
"Okay, you have nothing to do, you should defend the city, continue to defend the city for this king!"
“……”
The soldiers were annoyed in their hearts, but Chen Yu was the king, and there was nothing they could do with him, so soon, although they secretly gritted their teeth, everyone still took their respective weapons and went to defend the city everywhere.
Quest duration: 35 minutes and 59 seconds.
"It's almost coming......" Looking at the time of the dungeon, Chen Yu whispered a sentence in his mouth.
"System prompt: The army of the Inurong (one of the most powerful ethnic minorities in the northwest region during the Western Zhou Dynasty) has appeared on the outskirts of Kyoto, please pay attention."
When there are 35 minutes left in the dungeon time, the plot of the enemy attack finally happens.
"Report to the king! Tens of thousands of enemy troops are coming, and our garrison is insufficient! Soon, two officials also ran over in a panic to report.
"System prompt: Please order the defenders to meet the attack, and order Lishan to light a beacon fire and ask the princes for help."
Can you not light the beacon fire!
Knowing that lighting the beacon fire will definitely not have any effect, however, the indispensable historical plot still has to let it happen, Chen Yu waved his hand to the officials impatiently-
"Then order the guards to go out to meet the attack, and at the same time send someone to let Lishan light a beacon fire for help!"
"Yes!" "Yes!"
The two NPCs answered each other, and then quickly gave the order.
A few minutes later-
"System prompt: The beacon has been lit, please wait for reinforcements."
"System Prompt: Your soldiers appear to have defected, please be careful."
Two prompts followed, basically expected, but the first prompt said "please wait for reinforcements", instead of immediately saying "reinforcements are not responding, please flee", it seems that next, I have to think about escaping nearby for a while, because before the system clearly says "please flee", the so-called "escape location" will not appear on the map, no matter where he runs, the enemy behind will catch up. His identity is the king, and his riding is restricted in this level, but most of the enemy troops attacking him are cavalry, so it is really not so easy to run.
After the two system prompts passed, soon, a shouting sound sounded in front of the palace, and countless enemy troops, together with the palace army that was originally under their own, shouted the slogan of "Kill the Youwang, kill the demon concubine", and swarmed in the direction of the palace.
If they were to rush into the palace and find Bao Xi, it would be extremely difficult. As soon as the compliment is hung, the copy will be judged to fail. At this time, Chen Yu decisively pulled up Daji, pulled his legs and ran to the east of the city (Lishan is east of Haojing), and while running, he raised his throat like the panicked emperors in all TV dramas, and yelled-
"Someone! Escort !! ”
Shouting so loudly, the idiot also knows that the king is here.
"The king and the concubine are over there!!"
Countless enemy soldiers who were originally rushing towards the palace gate heard the sound, and when they saw Chen Yu and Daji from a distance, they immediately shouted and chased after them.
