"Strange...are you sure we are in Pantai City?" Li Yuanzhao muttered while lying on the ground holding a telescope.
Zhao Lie took the map and looked through it several times: "Yes, this is it. Do you have any questions, Your Highness?"
"The city gate is closed, so we searched the area a few times. Why didn't we see any herdsmen? When we came, we clearly saw a lot of traces of people living, but where are the people?" Li Yuanzhao was puzzled.
When I first arrived in Pantai City, I noticed something unusual around the outside of the city before I had time to make a plan.
After observing for a long time, the current situation feels a bit like... a solid wall and a clear field.
But is there any need for Pantai City to do this?
Or maybe someone had already rushed ahead of them to spread the news from the front line here, so that was the reason for the current situation.
However, the number of guards at the top of the city is sparse, and the city's defense status does not show any sense of tension. How strange!
It's a pity that I didn't dare to get too close, so I could only observe it with a telescope at the extreme distance.
"Your Highness, what should we do next?" Zhao Lie asked.
Li Yuanzhao frowned: "Don't be anxious, the matter is so important that there is no room for error. Let's first send a few people to keep a low profile and explore the surrounding area."
Zhao Lie nodded, walked behind him and whispered instructions.
Several soldiers lying on the ground immediately got up and left left and right.
...
In the evening, several spies came back.
"Your Highness, there are indeed traces of many people living in the surrounding area, but it is no longer inhabited. Except for some household tools, there is no food left, including no livestock."
Zhao Lie also felt a little strange and asked, "Is it possible that all the conscripts were taken away and the livestock were used as military supplies?"
"There is no need for Utu to do this, and even women who are conscripted should be at home. The walls are strong and the wilderness is clear... This is the only way. It seems that everyone has been shrunk to the city."
It was already dark now, and it was impossible to observe the state of Pantai City. Li Yuanzhao thought for a moment and said, "Are all the explosive packs there?"
"Here, what are your plans, Your Highness?"
Li Yuanzhao nodded.
When he first came out, in addition to grenades and other thermal weapons for attack, he also brought a few explosive packs.
It's just that it's heavy and not easy to carry, so I only brought enough to break open the city gate.
"No more waiting, I have decided to attack the city."
"Your Highness, but our grenades have been used up. Can we alone be able to defeat them? And we don't know where the people from the mission are in the city. If we are trapped, we will be doomed."
Li Yuanzhao said: "No, they must live outside the palace, together with other administrative offices. Since it is the royal family, the placement of foreign envoys will be carried out according to fixed procedures."
"As long as our people kill through the main road in the center and search around the palace, they will definitely find something. As long as they move fast enough."
"And the defenders in the city must not be elite soldiers. We are wearing heavy armor and carrying firearms. We can be said to be running rampant. We may even be able to kidnap some high-ranking officials and nobles."
"After rescuing people, take them out of the city immediately."
Zhao Lie nodded heavily: "I understand! Then I will go to the organization now and take advantage of the night..."
Li Yuanzhao stretched out his hand to stop him: "Wait a minute, who told you to take advantage of the night? There will be a surprise attack at noon tomorrow. The temperature is high at noon and there are many people on the street. We must take advantage of the chaos to get things done."
"First send people to collect more branches and dead wood, and take explosive bags to the base of the city wall at night and lie down against the wall. The defenders on the city wall are so sparse that they probably won't look down. Don't you have a pocket watch? Give it to them. When the time comes tomorrow, Make good time.”
"As soon as the city gate is broken, we will enter the city immediately!"
...
"There are so many people."
The main road of Pantai City was already crowded with people early in the morning, and Fang Zheng couldn't help but sigh.
Ali Bai's reputation has grown even higher due to the intense publicity. As long as he simply informs the people, almost everyone in the city will flock to look up to the idol.
Now the main road is surrounded by water, and it feels like you can't see the end at a glance.
Countless people looked forward to it and were just short of reaching the city gate.
Fang Zhengyi hasn't given a speech with Ali Bai for a long time, although he occasionally helps him revise his manuscripts.
Today's scene really surprised him.
This scene is even more awesome than Jay Chou's concert, and so many people gathered in the morning.
Ali Bai also gave a passionate speech on the stage that was originally set up.
The people in front were screaming, while Fang Zhengyi and Paba were whispering to the side.
Paba listened to the sound of the crowd in his ears and sighed: "It's unimaginable that this kind of gameplay can turn people into crazy people. Brother Fang, what do you think?"
Although it was not the first time to watch Alibai's speech, it always made him feel something new.
It is completely understandable even when Ali Bai swelled to what he is now.
The huge crowds of people had a huge appeal, and he felt a little excited in his heart.
"Haha, with a little trick, I still have a lot of things in my toolbox." Fang Zheng smiled.
"Hey... Emperor Jing is really relieved that he can let someone like you teach the prince... I said, can you take off the dragon robe? Do you have to wear it every day? I look like an eyesore!"
Seeing the yellow clothes on, the bright and bright Fangzheng Paba felt awkward in his heart.
Fang Zheng dusted off his dragon robe and said with a smile, "It's rare to be an emperor for once. I'll take it off when my people from Dajing arrive."
"Master, don't forget me when the Jin Kingdom is compiling its history books. We can't do it in vain."
Paba turned his head and was too lazy to speak.
The dog bites the nose and the face!
"Okay, I'm not joking. Tell me, how have you been getting along with Alibai these days? Does he trust you?"
Praba said: "It's not that easy. It's only been three days. He's very wary, but there's nothing wrong with him speaking. I just don't know if he can listen."
"He is a docile donkey. Just support him and praise him. It's not difficult."
"Come on, come on, look at how stinky he is!" Fang Zhengyi suddenly pointed at the stage and said.
Paba looked sideways.
I saw that Ali Bai's speech on the stage had reached its climax, and he was extremely excited, with saliva flying everywhere.
At the same time, he was shaking all over.
The people below had also stretched out their hands and waved, trying to reach towards Ali Bai, and they were also calling for the second prince.
Ali Bai is still playing the old tricks, shooting in the void, using non-existent corrupt officials to stir up hatred, and then building his own glorious empire.
"Those corrupt officials lost their minds and control due to greed, ignored morality and people's livelihood, and became slaves to money!"
"They are still hiding in the dark, harming one side. But on behalf of the royal family, I, Ali Bai, promise you today..."
"Any evil will be brought to justice!"
"Okay!!! Long live the Second Prince!!" The mountains roared and the tsunami roared, and there was thunderous applause.
Paba hugged his arms and sneered at Fang Zhengyi: "Crazy, crazy... look at the evil you have done! I don't even know how to clean up this mess."
"It's not difficult. Even though the people are shouting for joy now, they will wake up after a few days of hunger." Fang Zheng shrugged.
The loud compliments continued, and Ali Bai closed his eyes and enjoyed the pleasure of being complimented.
At the same time, at the corner of the doorway outside the city, a lead wire with sparks was beating...
.....
