After Chu Ba left the palace, he was suspended in the sky. He looked at the residential area and suspected that King Chu might be hiding in a densely populated area. Then he looked to the east. Hundreds of kilometers away, his army was still there. But now it is impossible to determine whether the army is still there or whether they have surrendered.
If we leave the city to catch the army now, it will take several hours and be full of uncertainties.
The more Chu Ba thought about it, the more desperate he became. Finally, he cried to himself: "Brother Chu, I was wrong. I really did something wrong. What should I do now? Where are you? Who can tell me? What should I do now?" what to do?"
From the past to the present, Chu Ba has never experienced anything like this. No matter what battlefield he is on or what danger he faces, he is not afraid and has never shed tears.
But now, Chu Ba's heart was like a flood that burst a dam, pouring down thousands of miles, without any fighting spirit.
He is not facing any danger now, nor has he been harmed in any way, but he is suffering tremendous mental torture. He always feels that he is very anxious now and it is an urgent matter, but he does not know what to do and has no direction.
Chu Ba struggled painfully for more than ten minutes, and finally he flew towards the huge residential area.
As he flew, he shouted in the sky: "Brother, where are you? Brother, come out quickly."
Chu Ba's voice was broken and even a little crying. He was like a lost child now. Looking for King Chu had become his instinct. He really needs guidance now, someone to tell him what to do.
However, the city is dozens of kilometers long and wide, densely packed with high-rise buildings, and there is no Internet or radio. How can we find people?
Chu Ba had no idea that King Chu and the others were hiding in the basement. Even if Chu Ba shouted above his head, people underground might not be able to hear them.
This method of searching is even worse than finding a needle in a haystack.
However, although it is impossible for Chu Ba's cry to find the King of Chu, it can arouse the response of many civilians.
When the civilians in the high-rise buildings saw Chu Ba flying, they all waved. Some people shouted: "It's General Chu, it's General Chu Ba."
"General Chu Ba is still here, and King Chu has not yet perished."
"General Chu, how is the East Marching Army? Why are you here?"
"General Chu, where is King Chu?"
People said "General Chu" in the east and "General Chu" in the west, which made Chu Ba annoyed to death.
Unable to bear it, Chu Ba broke down and shouted: "I don't know, didn't you see that I am looking for the King of Chu? Can you help me find the King of Chu?"
Everyone suddenly became quiet. They felt that Chu Ba was emotionally broken and had no fighting spirit at all. Everyone hoped that Chu Ba and King Chu could regain their morale, but Chu Ba didn't even know where King Chu was.
Now Chu Ba is asking civilians to help find people, but this is during a war. How can ordinary civilians dare to go out for activities rashly?
The Liejun issued a notice asking civilians to stay at home, and the Liejun would never offend. But if anyone gathers to make trouble or demonstrate, they will be directly attacked with rocket fire. Ordinary people don't have armor, so they can't withstand the bombardment of thermal weapons.
The civilians became silent, and Chu Ba was so angry that he yelled: "You trash, can't you even find someone at the critical moment?"
Although what Chu Ba said was angry, it really hurt the hearts of the civilians, and many civilians quietly left the window. Although not great, little people have little people's thoughts. In times of crisis, they are still
Self-preservation comes first.
Chu Ba continued to shout, kept shouting, and finally called a few officers.
One has the rank of colonel and the other has the rank of captain. The two of them were originally officers of the palace guard. However, the thousands of palace guards were helpless against tens of thousands of fierce troops. In addition, the King of Chu and his superiors all To protect himself, he escaped without a trace, so the palace fell quickly. Most of the palace guards were captured, some officers surrendered directly, and some escaped from the palace.
The officers later learned that Liejun had no intention of harming Qiu in the city, so they all hid inside. Later, they heard Chu Ba shouting from high in the sky.
As fleeing soldiers, they had no face to see Chu Ba, so they hesitated and didn't really want to come out. But after an hour of conflict, they finally showed up. They didn't want Chu Ba to find someone alone. It was too miserable.
So they showed up. Maybe their appearance can't speed up the search for King Chu, but together with Chu Ba, they can make more soldiers show up. When people gather together, they might be able to resist, even if they don't. , it is more efficient to find people when there are more people.
After the two joined Chu Ba, they also shouted.
Not long after, several more people showed up to join.
Slowly, more and more people joined, not only in the sky, but also on the ground, there were many flightless non-commissioned officers and soldiers.
At first, the behavior of Chu Ba and others did not attract Liejun's attention. Because the urban area was so large, Liejun did not invest many troops in the urban area. The revolutionary army only mobilized more than 10,000 people and took control of the police stations and signal towers in various districts. The Lie army was very worried that the remnants of the Chu army would seize the signal tower, so they did not dare to allocate too many troops to patrol the city. Only a few dozen ultra-small teams were dispatched to conduct divergent and random patrols in the urban area.
However, as Chu Ba's team grew in size and the commotion grew, one of Liejun's scouts finally discovered the whereabouts of Chu Ba and others.
The scout immediately set out for the nearest signal car, through which the message was quickly conveyed.
Because the number of signal cars was limited, Luo Erhu only got the news more than ten minutes later.
Luo Erhu and Rogni discussed it and summoned a prisoner urgently.
The prisoner's name was Ding Anguo. He was originally a spy. He had been hiding in Yecheng for many years and had become a senior officer in the palace. When Luo Erhu attacked the city, more than a thousand special agents responded to Luo Erhu and created riots in the city. However, Ding Anguo not only did not participate, but also made excuses to disappear. It turned out that Ding Anguo had been embezzling and accepting bribes in Yecheng, and his life was extremely comfortable. He had long forgotten his identity as a spy, and therefore committed treason.
Later, the palace was captured. Seeing that the Chu army was exhausted, Ding Anguo temporarily defected and attacked a division captain of the palace guard, forcing his men to surrender.
Although Ding Anguo temporarily established meritorious services, Luo Erhu hated this kind of villain who acted according to the wind, so he still arrested him.
But now, Luo Erhu needs him.
Luo Erhu called him into an armored vehicle and had a secret meeting with him.
"Ding Anguo, although you have made meritorious deeds before, these meritorious deeds are not enough to offset your sins. However, you still have one chance to make up for your faults. As long as you do it, you will not only be exempted from all sins, but also be remembered for a greater crime. military merit points, and the property you accumulated in Yecheng will no longer be confiscated."
"Seriously?" Ding Anguo said excitedly.
"How can what I, Luo Erhu, say be false?"
"What do you want me to do?"
"Kill the King of Chu."
"What? How to kill him? I don't even know where King Chu is hiding?"
"Don't worry, King Chu will probably show up on his own initiative."
"Why?"
"Because Chu Ba is gathering the remnants of the Chu army and is frantically looking for people in the city. Their number has reached more than one hundred, and these more than one hundred people have incited tens of thousands of civilians, and they have created a great advertising effect , just to let King Chu know that Chu Ba is looking for him. As their number increases, King Chu will probably take the initiative to send people to contact Chu Ba. What I want you to do is to blend in with these people immediately, and wait for Chu Ba After the king showed up, he looked for an opportunity to kill the king of Chu."
"This... this is too dangerous. It is simply impossible to kill King Chu in front of Chu Ba."
"I didn't say you will definitely succeed. I just asked you to do it and find an opportunity to execute it. If you can do it, you will be rewarded with high officials, rich salaries, gold and silver, and everything you need. But if you can't do it, there's nothing you can do about it."
"I understand, I understand, okay, no problem, I will definitely get things done." Ding Anguo said excitedly.
After that, Luo Erhu released Ding Anguo, who ran away like a wild horse that had escaped from stiffness, and then jumped into the sky and flew in the direction of Chu Ba and others.
After Ding Anguo left, Rogni walked out from behind the car.
Luo Erhu was a little worried: "I don't know if he can do it."
"Ding Anguo is a person who adapts to the situation, so he is naturally good at gaining the trust of his superiors. He is the only one who has a chance. If he can't do it, no one can do it now."
"What will happen in the end if King Chu doesn't die?"
"Then the situation may become similar to that in the capital of Zhao State. Neither King Zhao nor Zhao Yongheng died. They quietly gathered the remnants of the Zhao army and transformed themselves into underground resistance forces, trying to continue to fight against the fierce army. In the capital of the country, Ao Liehua It hasn’t been completely cleared for months.”
"Will it be this serious?"
"Of course, our situation will be much better. King Zhao was fighting and retreating at the same time. He was well prepared before the Lijun army launched a general attack, leaving nearly 100,000 people in the capital. But King Chu did not guess at all that we The Flying Tiger Regiment will take a detour to attack Yecheng by surprise, so Yecheng itself has very few troops and is not fully prepared. They have not even dug underground tunnels. If they resist, they can only engage in sneak attacks and guerrilla warfare, and The number of people should be very limited, and only a thousand people can survive."
"But the leaders of these more than a thousand people are Chu King and Chu Ba."
"The King of Chu is nothing to worry about. The key is Chu Ba. But Chu Ba's weakness is the King of Chu. I hope Ding Anguo can successfully assassinate the King of Chu. Once the King of Chu dies, Chu Ba will inevitably collapse, and he may lead all the remnants to take risks. They made a surprise attack and were finally captured by us."
"I hope Ding Anguo can succeed. In this way, the hidden dangers of Yecheng will be completely clear. Only in this way can the eldest brother easily become the lord of Yecheng."
"Are you really planning to let Jiang Ze be the city lord? Don't forget the military law of the Lie Kingdom. Whichever regiment captures a city, the city lord will belong to that regiment. If you become the city lord of Ye City, no one will object."
"Rogni, please stop talking. I'm tired of hearing these words these days. Others say, I can't help it, but you should understand me. Big brother is my god."
"Forget it, I understand you. Just like King Chu is Chu Ba's weakness, Jiang Ze is your weakness, Luo Erhu." Luo Geni smiled.
