Chapter 272: Three Thousand Dead (Second Watch)
The gate has been lost, the dead are flocking, the sky is cloudy, there is a faint thunder, and the mountain rain is coming.
And the arsenal guard looked at his fellow brothers who died under the opponent's sword, his eyes were full of silent sorrow, and it was the defense line that these people desperately built with shields that gave him the opportunity to kill these dead soldiers with high martial arts.
Now, he has lost them, which is equivalent to losing the umbrella on which he depends in the face of a rainstorm.
The dead men regrouped and rushed towards him in formation again.
The tide is over...... He put down the halberd in his hand in despair, and soon he felt the cold sharpness of the iron sword pierce into his body, a puff of pain and a stream of hot liquid, and the dead man's eyes were cold, and his face was blurred under the mask.
"You bunch...... Traitor!" said the arsenal guard, gritting his teeth.
The dead man didn't speak, his hand flipped over, and the iron sword pulled out the bowels of the arsenal guard in the intermittent of the armor, and the guard's eyes widened, and he fell straight down the steps.
"Put on your armor, take your weapons, the gate has been opened, and success or failure is here!" the leader of the dead men said to everyone in a cold voice, "Move fast!"
The blood on the ground gradually solidifies in the cool wind of the autumn night, and stepping on it will have a very subtle sticky feeling, which is disgusting.
"Three thousand dead soldiers?" Gao Yishui's eyes changed slightly, looking at Cai Yan almost in disbelief, "You said that your father not only has a patrol battalion in his hands, but also secretly trained three thousand dead soldiers outside Ding'an City?"
"I only once overheard my brother talking to my father...... Although it was later discovered, only listened to approximately. Cai Yan's expression was very complicated, "These three thousand dead soldiers are the last foundation of the Cai family." Yang Guifei has continued to suppress the lord of the country over the years, eradicate dissidents in the court, and monopolize power, my father didn't want to fight for power, but in order to protect himself, he had to train these 3,000 dead soldiers, and he only hoped that he would never use them. ”
"In other words, now these three thousand dead soldiers should be attacking the arsenal at this time, and even ...... Arsenals may have been captured. Gao Yishui knocked on the map, trying to say something, but after enduring it for a long time, he couldn't help but scold, "Damn, Cai Yong, this old Wang Ba." ”
Cai Yan lowered her head and didn't speak, she didn't know what words to use to respond to Gao Yishui's abuse for her father to do such a shocking thing, and she didn't expect that after only half a day after leaving home, things would happen to such a point out of control.
"That means that tonight's chaos is far more violent than we thought. "Gao Yi Shuidao," three thousand dead soldiers, patrol battalions, forbidden troops, and one thousand iron cavalry, Li Qiuhuang's party actually controlled six or seven thousand troops overnight, in this case, this palace can be said to have fallen into their control. ”
There was a lot of movement outside, and the three people in the case were obviously a little impatient.
"Shut up!" Qin Ke and Lu Pu were so annoyed that they couldn't help but shout at Wu Ting at the same time.
Wu Ting was shocked by the low shouts of the two of them and was silent for a while, and his brain was a little confused for a while, he stared at Lu Pu, thinking to himself, who are you?
Lu Pu didn't look at him, just gritted his teeth and kept thinking about ways to solve the dilemma in his mind, he was different from Wu Ting, Wu Ting was a pure person, and it was precisely because he was too pure, maybe there was nothing fancy to work with such a person, and he didn't have to worry about him stabbing him in the back because he was inconsistent, but at this time, his stupid appearance still made people want to beat him when they saw it.
The three of them had been in a stalemate here for a while, but everyone knew that this stalemate could not last forever.
It's late at night, and if the three of them still can't get out before dawn, I'm afraid that what awaits them won't be a good thing.
Qin Ke was also very embarrassed, and even at some moments, he wanted to simply agree to Lupu's approach and hand over the silk book to Lupu, anyway, after going out, he might not have a chance to snatch it back.
It's just that he is not a gambler like Gao Yishui, and he doesn't have the slightest gambling nature, this silk book is related to his master's whereabouts, and he doesn't want to use it as a bargaining chip.
Thinking of this, he also showed a very sad expression on his face, this kind of thing is really too torturous, in the end, this is a dead end, ......right? Unless there is an arrogant and unreasonable hand from a third party who forcibly overturns the game......
It's just that...... Who is that third party?
The two of them sitting there chatting, or the Jing Wu spy who didn't know when to make any moves outside?
It's just that at this moment when he had a headache, the situation suddenly changed.
Just outside the carved window with a layer of silk blocking the view, I don't know when, there were countless fires, just in such a silent night, under a piece of moonlight, these firelights swayed and swayed, but they seemed to be more and more vigorous, unswervingly spreading, like a monstrous wave, rolling in.
At first, it was just a small dot, which seemed insignificant, and even just like a moving candle flame, but when those fires were connected, it was accompanied by countless footsteps, and the armor pieces rubbed against each other in the running, making a sonorous rustling sound, as if there was an army running outside, although Qin Ke couldn't tell how many people there were, but just looking at those flickering fires, he could also estimate that the outside was by no means as simple as a simple forbidden army patrol team.
And most importantly...... They didn't walk at the same pace, but it wasn't because of the loose military discipline that their legs had begun to slip off, but because they ...... They're chasing something.
Subsequently...... A terrible howl tore through the silence of the night.
Countless blades slammed into the air, slashing into the human body with sharp blades, the voice was dull, but at the end it tore out a cry of pain, and some firelight fell, and some firelight stood proudly, as if it was mocking the extinguishing fire that fell to the ground with a cold gaze.
For a while, countless voices poured into Qin Ke's ears like a tsunami, and he couldn't change it for a while.
But out of shock, he immediately squatted down, at this time, Lu Pu had already sensed that something was wrong, and his face was also solemn, although he did not have the powerful ear power of Qin Ke, but he could at least hear the sound of the battle outside the case vault that could be said to be undisguised and shocking to the sky.
The screams of countless people made him uneasy, he didn't know what was going on, his eyes were glued to the window: "What's the situation?"
"I don't know. Qin Ke replied in a low voice, even Wu Ting shrank his head at this time, although he was very bold, it didn't mean that he was not afraid of death, what kind of place was this Tang King's Palace?
At this time, with the slamming of the door, Qin Ke's heart tightened, but he already knew that the two guards guarding the case vault had hurried out from the door, and his heart was open-
Maybe that's the hand! the hand that messes up the game!
Regardless of the cause of this commotion, Qin Ke stood up almost immediately, and just between Lupu and Wu Ting were stunned, he approached the bedside, and the dagger in his hand was unsheathed again, making a small cut in the silk window.
The fight outside the door suddenly came into view.
It was a fight, but it was a one-sided killing, both sides were armies in iron armor, but one side had already lost the will to fight, just with their trembling legs and weak arms, even if they could still muster up the courage to hold the sword in their hands and slash at those former colleagues, but their formation had already retreated all the way back into an army.
On the contrary, on the opposite side of them, the sudden team has always maintained a stable formation, and every step forward, there is a flash of light, just in the midst of the general's shouting, the sharp blade cuts into the flesh and bones, and with every flash, countless people fall.
They were like a group of ghosts in the night, stepping on those broken bodies and bloodstained armor, piercing the shadows of the night and the eternal darkness into the hearts of the routs, strangling them without mercy.
