In an inconspicuous corner of Shanglin Garden, hundreds of people gathered quietly. They didn't say anything, let alone invite each other, but they came consciously as if they had made an appointment.
They were dressed in the clothes of nobles, and all of them looked noble. In fact, this was also the characteristic of visitors to Shanglin Garden. Those who could come here were not rich or noble, unless they were from business firms.
After hundreds of people gathered, they didn't say much, and they quickly dispersed. Although they were dispersed, they all had a common direction, which was to the east, where the secret palace was.
At the gate of the city, there is a huge crowd at the moment. No, it should be tense. Tens of thousands of people are gathering. All kinds of murderous weapons are emerging one after another. Those vicious eyes are like wolves and tigers, and they seem to be engulfing Shanglinyuan.
Below, there are all kinds of provocations and angry words.
In the city gate, Wu Fang clenched his fists tightly, but his expression was very ugly.
These people are insulting the young master, not only saying that the young master is not a good person, but also saying that the young master is helping others to commit evil and is cruel and unkind.
But he didn't act rashly. He was looking down closely, holding a cylinder in his hand. There was a long thing trailing behind the cylinder, which could rebound when touched.
This is a high-pressure water gun.
During the construction of Shanglinyuan, Li Zhao built a water tower, purchased a high-pressure pump without warning, and even bought many long water pipes.
At this moment, it comes in handy.
Hundreds of water pipes were stretched from a distance, and the pipes were bulging. Some of the pipes had quality problems and even had water arrows stretched out and shot straight away, but no one paid attention to this.
After being led by the leader, the guards held water guns tightly and placed them horizontally on the city wall, but their eyes were staring sharply at the bottom. As long as there was any movement below, they would spray immediately.
The young master said that although this thing cannot kill people, it can block people. There are too many people in Guizhou. They don't expect to be able to drive them away, but they will never let them break the city unless they all fall.
The atmosphere was tense, breathing was rapid, and the brows were full of tension.
On the other side, a thousand elites were ready to go, lining up in a line, with hot weapons on their shoulders, aiming down.
Maybe someone below recognized the object in the elite's hand. Although tens of thousands of Guizhou leaders were cursing, they did not make any move. The atmosphere was very tense for a while.
Conflict is about to break out.
On the hill, Xiang Liang and Shangguan stood at the highest point, looking forward.
There was a person tied up with a rope next to him. This person was somewhat young, but he was blindfolded and his mouth was gagged. He was being held by two people and could not move at all.
Shangguan grabbed a single-tube cylindrical object in his hand. It was very long and seemed to have some weight. One end of the object was shining, and he placed it tightly in front of his eyes, covering his entire right eye.
If Li Zhao saw it, he would be greatly amazed, because this object is a telescope, no, it can be regarded as the prototype of a telescope. It is completely incomparable with the compactness and exquisiteness of telescopes in previous generations.
His face is sometimes soothing and sometimes tense, just like the weather in June!
"Shangguan, is there anything unusual?"
Xiang Liang saw the clue and asked quickly.
Shangguan didn't say anything, but gave the single-tube thing to Xiang Liang. Xiang Liang might have never come into contact with such a thing. He followed Shangguan's example and looked in curiously. The scene below suddenly appeared in front of him, but he was shocked. .
However, his mood was relatively stable, and he was soon trapped by the situation below.
With the help of the monocular, he saw the confrontation at the gate of Shanglinyuan City, and even saw the figures of Qin soldiers carrying large weapons on the city wall.
"Shangguan, it's not good. One thousand elites that Li Zhao took away were sent to the defense. They all have powerful weapons. I'm afraid we won't be able to get a good deal."
Shangguan's expression did not change, but a hint of contempt rose at the corner of his mouth.
"It's just a machine gun. There's no need to be afraid of it. It'll just waste some time."
Since the defeat of Xianyang, they have known that a weapon, the machine gun, is extremely powerful.
"Exactly!" Xiang Liang smiled and acquiesced in his heart.
Xiang Zhengyi ordered a large number of killing weapons to be delivered. I heard that they were improved. I guess they will arrive soon. When the killing weapons are in hand, I really won't be afraid of a mere thousand elites.
The Shangguan ignored the situation below and asked, "Is everything ready?"
"Everything is ready!"
