The same night, in Tunliu, hundreds of miles away.
Under the moonlight.
Tunliu seemed extremely quiet, even a little depressed. Looking from a high altitude, he could only see the silent Qin army patrolling, looking lifeless.
Now that Tunliu is isolated and helpless, anyone will feel desperate. Even the soldiers who know nothing can see the situation clearly. After all, they are now considered rebels, and they have even become rebels inexplicably.
now.
A figure slowly walked into a courtyard that had been abandoned for an unknown period of time. As the courtyard door closed, he slowly raised his head, revealing a hideous face full of scars. He was a middle-aged man with fierce eyes and a strong and capable body. , without a trace of fat, wearing a set of armor with spikes on his body, and a long knife at his waist, which was covered with traces of time.
"Long time no see, General."
Not long after the middle-aged man entered the courtyard, a young man with a cold temperament came out from a corner and stared at the visitor with cold eyes.
The person who came was Tunliu's original city guard general Bi. The other party was affiliated with Luo Wang, but was not under the jurisdiction of Luo Wang. To be honest, General Bi was a general promoted by the Prime Minister. People like this were unknown to the entire Qin State. How many years, more than ten years are enough for Lu Buwei to extend his hands to all aspects.
Without this ability, how can one talk about wielding power and controlling such a huge country.
General Bi stared at Qian Kill indifferently, and said in a cold voice: "When will we do it?"
"Tonight, after you take action, I will notify Wang Jian to attack Tunliu at night."
Gan Sha said with an indifferent expression, his tone was calm, and he was already familiar with this kind of assassination.
"good."
The general's words were concise and to the point. As a military man, he didn't have to make too many twists and turns. The general only had to obey orders.
"Old rule, sound the arrow as a signal."
Gan Sha reminded.
General Bi nodded, turned and left. He wanted to lead his army to surround and kill Cheng Xi. This was the script he had decided before surrendering to Cheng Xi.
Cheng Yu's rebellion was beyond everyone's expectation, but the outcome of this rebellion was already doomed. To put an end to it with Cheng Yu's death was also to give everyone an explanation.
Gan Sha raised his head and glanced at the crescent moon in the night sky, and said in a low voice: "It's a nice night, very suitable for hunting!"
The scarlet murderous intent flashed away in his eyes.
His sword thirsts for blood!
…
Didn't wait too long.
General Bi led a team of dozens of people into the camp where Cheng Xi was. The sound of fighting soon broke the tranquility of Tunliu. At the same time, the city gate of Tunliu was also opened. People who had been waiting outside the city for a long time The army marched straight in, and the young general holding the flag at the head shouted angrily: "The general has an order, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
All the soldiers present had heard of Wang Jian's name, and many rebels chose to surrender.
Of course, there are also people who are stubbornly resisting, such as Fan Yuqi!
This man is worthy of being the general selected by Cheng Yu. His force is astonishing. He led a group of soldiers and horses to block the first wave of the Qin army's offensive. He is really brave!
the other side.
Wang Jian had already led his troops into Tunliu. He went up to the city gate and looked at Tunliu who was in chaos. His eyes finally fell on Fan Yuqi. Seeing his fierce fighting power, his expression was slightly condensed and lowered. He said loudly: "You go and stop him. This battle is over. There should be no more casualties."
….
"promise!"
A burly figure walked out from behind Wang Jian, carrying a big sword and walked down the city gate, and soon he was fighting with Fan Yuqi.
Wang Jian glanced at Qian Sha and said indifferently: "There is no need to tell me about your snare, and I have no interest in knowing."
He was picked up by Lu Buwei, the prime minister, and he was no stranger to snares. Now that snares appeared here, some things were already clear. It was related to the life and death of the young master of Qin State. As a smart man, Wang Jian naturally did not want to know too much.
After all, this kind of thing means a steady stream of troubles, and even if you don't get it right, you can easily lose your head.
Even if Jun Chengyu of Chang'an launched a rebellion, he would still be the son of Qin.
At this moment, even if he stood here and let Wang Jian kill him, Wang Jian would not dare to move. No one would dare to bear the crime of killing a prince of a country.
"I always know that I will call you General."
Gan Sha said respectfully: "The Prime Minister means that Lord Chang'an is the son of the Qin State. Even if he betrays the Qin State, he must be treated with respect!"
Wang Jian frowned and remained silent. He didn't know if this matter had the king's will.
Gan Sha continued in a low voice: "Don't worry, General, I will take care of this matter later and won't cause any trouble to the General."
"If Lord Chang'an surrenders, we will protect him."
Wang Jian said coldly.
A sneer flashed across Gan Sha's lips.
surrender?
Lord Chang'an must also have this opportunity. Anyone caught in the trap has no qualifications to surrender. Death is their destination!
…
The chaos in Tunliu continues.
When the killings arrived, General Bi and the team he led had all been wiped out in the camp. At the same time, an inexplicable fire ignited the camp. The raging fire shot into the sky, making it impossible to rush in. Standing outside and watching, You can vaguely see Chenglong's body lying on the ground.
Gan Sha's eyes flashed slightly, and he immediately split open the tent wrapped in flames with his sword, rushed in, and brought out Cheng Xi's body in a flash of light.
At this moment, Chenglong's body had been burned by the flames and was beyond recognition. Most of the clothes on his body were burned. Only the jade ring on his thumb remained radiant and was not affected by the flames. And this jade ring was still shining brightly. The ring also seems to represent the identity of the corpse.
It is the jasper finger ring given to Chengxian by King Zhuang Xiang when he was awarded the title of Duke at the age of twelve!
This thing cannot be faked.
He knelt down, raised his hand and stroked the corpse's forehead. After feeling it for a moment, his eyes turned cold: "The golden cicada escapes from its shell? As expected of Lord Chang'an, it's a pity that he could think of such a way to escape from such a desperate situation."
The seed in Chang'an Juncheng's body is not so easy to disperse.
No more time wasted.
Killing and chasing outside the city!
…
the other side.
Cheng Yu, who was temporarily out of danger, was looking at the rough man in front of him. After pondering for a while, he asked, "Who are you and why do you want to help me?"
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is whether you want to live."
The rough and arrogant man turned to look at Cheng Xi and said with burning eyes.
"Ants still live in vain, let alone humans."
Cheng Yu shook his head, then lowered his eyes slightly and whispered to himself: "But so what if I survive, I may be greeted by an endless pursuit."
….
"There is hope only if you are alive. I can help you leave Qin!"
The rough man said in a deep voice.
Cheng Yu narrowed his eyes and stared at the rough middle-aged man in front of him. He suddenly changed the subject and asked, "Did you write that secret letter?"
Tian Guang was stunned when he heard this, then frowned and asked pretending to be confused: "What letter?"
"Why pretend to be stupid? I am not a pawn to be manipulated by others. From the moment you appeared, I knew that there must be a third party involved in this game. Your purpose may be to target the Qin State. Do you think I am a pawn?" Will Mr. Qin cooperate with you?"
Cheng Yu sneered with a look of self-mockery in his eyes.
Tian Guang was silent. He didn't expect that in this situation, Cheng Yu would still be in the mood to argue with him.
Cheng Yu is gone. It is impossible for him to accept Tian Guang's help. He has his own pride and dignity!
As the son of the Qin State, he could not accept being someone else's pawn, and he still knowingly allowed himself to be manipulated by the other party and turned against the Qin State!
He can rebel against Qin, but this does not mean that others can too!
Want to take advantage of him?
He has always been the only one who takes advantage of others!
. . . . . . . . .
At noon the next day, a piece of good news was sent to Xianyang Palace.
Tunliu was captured, Fan Yuqi was captured, and the rest of the rebels surrendered. As for Chang'an Juncheng, according to the rebels, he knew the city was broken and died in the fire without any bones left...
"Died by ***?"
In the Lama Temple, Ying Zheng, who was wearing a silver-white robe, looked at the good news in his hand with a calm expression. No one could see his emotions. After a moment, he slowly put down the good news in his hand and walked to the window nearby. Looking at the scenery of Xianyang City, I whispered to myself: "Are you really dead?"
He had grown up with Cheng Yu since he was a child. He knew very well that there was no way he could rape his younger brother.
Even if he really wanted to die, he would not choose such a way to die.
"Order Wang Jian to escort Fan Yuqi back to Xianyang. I want to interrogate him personally!"
Ying Zheng pondered for a while, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice.
It no longer matters whether Cheng Xiu is dead or alive, because he will never appear in front of him again in the future. What is more important now is to find out what happened, which made Cheng Xiu take such a desperate risk and do such a thing. What a stupid thing to do!
Everyone involved needs to pay a price for this!
Because he lost his only brother!
