Chapter 262: Darkness Chen Cang
At night, the north gate of the imperial capital. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As winter deepens, so does the cold. A soldier guarding the city gate shivered, put his hand in front of his mouth, took two breaths of hot air, and complained: "This hellish weather, there will be a heavy snow sooner or later!"
Another soldier chimed in: "Yes, I heard that there has been a snow on the wolf city, and this year's ice field winter came early, and even our side is cold fast!"
"Our brothers have a hard life, although the city guard is also subordinate to the Central Army, after all, they can't compare to those guys who follow the Duke into the city to eat and drink spicy - hey, maybe there are some girls who can't survive take the initiative to give those bastards a hug, and the happiness of the cold day is tight!"
"Yes, there are not a few noble girls who have not escaped from the city due to the disaster, in order to survive, what can't be done?
"It's also our Major General Wu Da who is too stubborn, offended the national abbot Xiao Yuandao, and was dismissed by the queen's wife. If you want me to say, now that the queen is dead, he will not go to the duke to be accommodating, maybe he can be reinstated!
Now that the captain of our city guard is appointed by the Duke himself, you don't want to think about it, it must be a close confidant of the Duke. If Major General Wu Da ran over and asked for the official to be reinstated, he would not offend the dead, and the Duke would not be happy-" Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of more than ten horsemen coming from the city, and he stopped talking, and looked intently through the torches at the head of the city, and a shining star pierced his eyes, and he immediately recognized the man.
"Lord Captain!" the soldier immediately straightened up and saluted loudly.
"Everyone's hard work!" the person who came was the major general of the city guard, Du Du, who nodded to the soldiers, and then dismounted and walked directly towards the city gate.
The soldier wondered in his heart, this is cold and dark, why did the captain come here? The city gate tower is leaking everywhere, isn't this asking for hardship? In the past, the main general could come and inspect so tirelessly, unless there was an enemy situation.
How is this possible? The alien race was still blocked in the wolf city thousands of miles away, and the rebels were also exterminated by the duke, and everyone saw that the fire in the palace burned all night. The two soldiers looked at each other, and there was only one situation left—there was a big man coming from the north gate! Could it be the Duke?
......
In the city gate tower, Hu You, the major general of the city guards, bowed respectfully: "I've seen the duke!"
Ah Heng leaned on the stove and said with a smile while roasting the fire: "Old Hu, we are all our own people, no need to be polite......!
Hu You smiled, took off his coat, and went to the stove to start a fire.
Hu You: "My lord, will those people really come? Why haven't there been any movement until now?"
Ah Heng: "Don't worry, they will definitely come!"
......
As he was talking, there was a sudden noise from the city, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
Hu You stood up: "My lord, I'll go out and have a look!"
Ah Heng: "Let's go together!" he put on his cloak, hid his face in the shadows, and walked out of the city gatehouse.
Leaning on the city, Ah Heng saw that thousands of people had gathered at the city gate, and shouted one by one: "Open the city gate, we have to go out, we have to live......"
Soon, one group after another of the city guards rushed down from the top of the city to reinforce the guards below. The soldiers raised their shields and soon formed a strong defensive line.
Hu You was surprised: "What a great ability, we can actually gather so many people! My lord, it seems that we are still not well prepared! The civil disaster is no less than a rebellion——"
Ah Heng smiled secretly in his heart and waved his hand: "It's okay!
Hu You didn't know that although the other party had a large number of people, it couldn't become a climate, because most of them were Zhong Han's subordinates. With the solicitation of the other party, there is no way to gather so many people. Since the issuance of the decree to rebuild the imperial capital, people have decided that there are not many people who dare to commit crimes against the wind. Therefore, the city looked lively, but in fact, it was not out of Ah Heng's control.
Ah Heng's eyes searched quickly, and soon found Zhong Han's figure, and the other party also looked towards the city. Ah Heng couldn't help but smile because he found that Zhong Han had given him a gesture-
Ah Heng nodded, spread his palm, and the transparent wings of the nematode spread, ready to fly. His gaze quickly locked on Zhong Han's designated area, but he saw that several people were holding swaddling clothes, and they were all very close, and they couldn't tell which one could be the little emperor's grandson! Ah Heng scolded secretly, the kidnapper was cunning - so noisy, these children didn't even make a sound of crying, most of them were unconscious.
Just as he was thinking, the noisy people under the city had begun to squeeze the shield defense of the city guard soldiers, and the people at the front were shouting with emotion, trying to squeeze the city guard and open the city gate.
Hu You: "My lord, is it possible to open the city gate?"
Ah Heng shook his head, No! If he couldn't find the real emperor's grandson, he wouldn't be able to use the wireworm to track him. This means that he has no way to follow the clues to find the hidden key person without alarming the other party - this person must be the core fulcrum that Ye Chong has arranged in the Gyeonggi area.
Ah Heng believed that as long as he gave this core fulcrum a fatal blow, he would definitely be able to leverage all of Ye Chong's forces in the imperial capital and the Gyeonggi region, and Ye Chong's deployment would be completely exposed in front of him. If he can't be uprooted, Ah Heng will be like a man on his back after all, and sooner or later he will fall into the big net woven by the other party!
The key to doing all this lies in "not knowing the ghosts and ghosts"; once the grass is startled, that key person will inevitably be hidden even deeper! If the other party is vigilant, it will not be easy to catch the other party again! What is even more serious is that the other party will discover that Ah Heng knows the secret that Ye Chong is not dead, and they will have insight into the intention of Ah Heng's recent actions -- not to take power, but to escape! When the time comes, Ah Heng will steal the chicken and rice!
Now that the hidden god has succumbed, the next one is Prince Ye Yuan, Ah Heng knows that he is just a disease of scabies in the eyes of the other party, and he has already planned to deal with it. But if the operation fails tonight, the priorities will be reversed, and he will become the object of Ye Chong's key care!
Ah Heng secretly told himself that he must be foolproof! He didn't dare to use any supernatural powers, because he was not sure if the people under the city were hiding masters in spiritual power.
But with the naked eye, how could he tell who the emperor's grandson was? The only thing Ah Heng knew more than the others was that Huo Yu had said that this child of hers was actually a monster -- but Ah Heng didn't know anything about it!
How can God not be aware of ghosts? What a headache! Ah Heng found that he had thought things simply!
The hustle and bustle under the city has become louder and louder, and if it continues like this, it will inevitably affect the hearts of the people in the city!
Hu You had already urged again: "My lord, make a decision early!"
Ah Heng gritted his teeth, it seems that it is not possible to shed a little blood, if the other party attaches enough importance to the safety of the emperor and grandson, then it should be a little different!
Ah Heng said coldly: "Do it, kill the leaders at the front!"
Hu You was stunned, this was a little different from the original plan! But he still faithfully followed Ah Heng's order!
......
The city received the order, and the soldiers of the city guard who were waiting in the back row immediately raised their spears flat, like cold and ruthless machines, and pierced through the gaps in the shields.
The screams rang out, and the unarmed rioters in the front row immediately fell to the ground like cut dead grass.
"Oh no, kill people......"
"The Central Army has killed people...... Everyone, back off!"
"Ahh
"Run...... I'm going to be killed."
......
The soldiers of the city guard mechanically repeated the simple action, retracting, stabbing flat, retracting, stabbing flat, and a smell of blood immediately filled the city gate.
Ah Heng's eyes were firmly fixed on the few people holding the children, and sure enough, their reactions were different. In the face of the chaotic crowd, only a woman with a dull face hugged the child in her arms tightly, and the others let the swaddling clothes in their arms be squeezed around!
Ah Heng's eyes were cold, and the wireworm flew out silently - at the same time, Ah Heng secretly made a gesture to Zhong Han.
Immediately, Zhong Han and the beggars around him shouted in unison: "Don't be afraid, these bitches don't treat us as human beings, let's rush together!
As if hearing the horn of the charge, the beggars and gangers who were hiding behind immediately shouted and rushed forward—but the poor troublemakers who rushed to the front were about to be punctured into broken sacks.
Ah Heng nodded at Hu You: "You can let go!"
Immediately, the city guards, who were still like a steel defense line just now, collapsed in an instant, and the crowded crowd rushed towards the city gate like a flood that broke the embankment, and soon the city gate was opened.
Ah Heng watched as the woman with a dull face was dragged out of the city by everyone. The stars in his eyes flowed, and he found that the woman had just left the city, and her steps were vigorous, like that of a man, and she quickly disappeared into the darkness with several people!
Sure enough, there was a problem, this woman was mostly dressed as a man, and she left very quickly. However, no matter how fast you are, you can't escape!
