In the night wind, Chang Sheng stood in the darkness near the post house, his eyes shining.
After waiting for a long time, he finally got the scene he wanted. As he and his brothers said, there will be many restless people tonight.
"Little military advisor, the thief has been discovered!" Yan Pi, wearing armor, hurriedly came over.
"If not, we will kill you immediately!"
"Don't be anxious." Chang Sheng smiled faintly, "Since we are hunting rats, the best time is to wait for the rats to enter the cage before taking action."
"What do you mean, little military advisor?"
"Just watch, these rats are about to enter my cage."
"The little strategist is serious... he has no plans left."
Chang Sheng was silent for a long time before sighing, "It's a pity that lame people in Western Shu are not so easy to deal with."
That high mountain made him feel out of breath every moment.
"Wait quietly." Chang Sheng raised his head again, "Besides, have you done what I asked you to do?"
Yan Pi clasped his fists, "Don't worry, little military advisor, of course I did it. I have sent people to pass the news to many old families in Changyang... With the iron execution platform in return, many old families can still hear Qing Mo in their mansions." The sound of the sword even caused a lot of dead soldiers to gather."
Chang Sheng was not surprised at all.
"Where's Xie's family?"
"As the little strategist expected, it was indeed a member of the Xie family. This Xie Chang just thought that his work was impeccable, so he went out of the small door specially. But how did he know that the little strategist had already put many eyes on him, staring closely at him? Mansion.”
"You can dance happily, but you can die quickly." Chang Sheng narrowed his eyes, "I'm a little curious about how the Xie family, who started out as a peddler, suddenly developed such great abilities. Could it be that they really ate sand? Did the Rong people give you the dog food?"
"It's impossible to say that the assassin is also hiding in Xie's Mansion. If it weren't for the little strategist who refused to let me go, I would have led people in before."
"What is more important, I need to weigh. Compared with an assassin, stabilizing the hearts of the old families in the inner city is the most important thing. This round, let's attack the Xie family."
Not long after, another little captain came over.
"Little military advisor, the thieves have already approached the post house!"
"Very good." Chang Sheng raised his hand and pointed, "Yan Pi, use your bravery to catch rats for me tonight!"
"Leader's order!" Yan Pi drew his sword and roared.
Behind him, countless guards stepped out.
"Light up the fire!"
Hoo ho ho.
The brightness of the torch hastily illuminated a corner of the groggy time.
Not far away, many of the old family heads who had received Chang Sheng's message came with private guards and gathered in a hurry at night.
"Xie Chang of the Xie family in Changyang communicated with the foreign Sha Rong, and wanted to secretly help the foreign tribe to take over the Central Plains, overthrow our Beiyu, and overthrow the Central Plains. This is the number one thief in the world, everyone will find him and punish him!"
In the evening breeze, Yan Pi's voice suddenly startled many old aristocratic families who had gathered. Many people were confused at first, and then quickly became extremely angry when they understood.
If foreigners set foot in the Central Plains, the thousands of years of heritage of aristocratic families like theirs would probably be wiped out. No matter what, the prairie people who drink raw materials and drink blood will not reason with you.
"Kill Xie Chang!"
…
"What, what?"
The fire ahead and the roars all around made Xie Chang look pale. He never thought that he would lose so completely.
It was obvious that he had been exposed. It's just strange that he was always careful, how could he be exposed?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, we have been discovered!" Xie Chang panicked and turned to look at Hao Lianzhan next to him, trying to grasp this life-saving straw.
He didn't know that at this time, King Sha Rong's face was also angry and turned red. Repeatedly and repeatedly, from Chuzhou to the inner city, he seemed to have never succeeded in assassinating someone.
What do these Central Plains people want to do? They can always be so powerful.
"Master, someone is coming to kill you!" A leader of the accompanying dead soldiers shouted anxiously.
"Your Majesty, what should I do?" Xie Chang's voice was filled with tears.
He knew very well that even if he surrendered now, the Northern Chongqing King would definitely not let him go according to his temper. His only life-saving straw was King Sha Rong in front of him.
Hao Lianzhan did not answer, but turned around coldly with an angry look on his face. A Beiyu captain who rushed over was slashed with his sword. The captain's head was broken and he died in a pool of blood, stunned.
"Since you fell into the trap, Xie Chang, follow me out quickly."
"Okay, okay!" Xie Chang quickly held the knife. Looking back, I saw dozens more of the two hundred dead soldiers who had been brought over had fled in a hurry and no longer followed them.
In front of him, the soldiers of Beiyu who were killed were overwhelming.
"Xie Chang, I'll clear the way, please remember to follow me closely." Hao Lianzhan said calmly.
"I will definitely follow your Majesty! Your Majesty, please don't leave me behind."
"rest assured."
Hao Lianzhan looked back with a smile, without any fear on his face. He turned his head, saw the direction of Chang Sheng clearly, and ran quickly.
A general who had gathered around him was horrified when he saw this, and led his men to rush back to protect the military advisor.
Unexpectedly, Hao Lianzhan only ran for a few steps, and after slashing away seven or eight people with his sword, he immediately turned around, calmly loosened his grip, and disappeared into the night.
Xie Chang, who followed behind, suddenly became Hao Lianzhan's army from following him. The remaining more than a hundred people were killed and their armor was discarded, and they continued to fall to the ground.
Xie Chang's hair was disheveled. Seeing that the situation was over, he fell to his knees in shock. A pair of eyes turned around from time to time, trying to find Hao Lianzhan.
"Xie Chang——"
An old family head, extremely angry, approached with more than a dozen guards, and hit Xie Chang on the head with the crutch in his hand.
"Master Yu...please spare your life——"
Before Xie Chang finished speaking, two or three more family heads came over and kicked him to the ground again, giving him a good beating.
Chang Sheng, who was not far away, turned his head and looked in the direction where Hao Lianzhan was escaping, and fell into deep thought for a while. What happened tonight has become an outlet for Xie Chang to vent his anger, and he should be able to appease the old family members.
However, he really did not expect that if it was true as Xie Chang said, Hao Lianzhan, the king of Sha Rong, was really brave enough to dare to enter Changyang like this.
"Yan Pi, send more people to patrol the city gate."
"Don't worry, military advisor, I understand everything."
"Go ahead."
Chang Sheng frowned and stood there for a long time in the evening breeze.
In the post house.
Hearing the noise outside, Chen Fang closed his eyes and opened them again. After his disciple pushed the window, he happened to see Chang Sheng, who had been standing for a long time, through the wooden window that he pushed open.
"I guessed it all, but saved my life."
"What are you talking about, teacher? The thieves have retreated."
"I was talking nonsense, and I saved a bad life." Chen Fang handed the long sword he was holding back to his disciple's hand.
"Chang Ziyou, you are a complicated person."
…
Changyang City seemed to have been frightened all night, with dogs barking and children crying all around.
Chang Wei, who was carrying the Pear Blossom Spear and the Huwei Camp with more than a thousand people, stood against the wind.
Originally waiting anxiously, Chang Wei cursed for most of the night. Only when he saw a few jumping figures did he burst into laughter.
"Thieves?"
"According to the order of my little Chang Sheng, I know that you are going to escape deep into the forest. Beiyu Tiger Power General Chang Wei has been waiting for you for a long time——"
…
Stopping, Hao Lianzhan held the knife, his face turning into gritted teeth. Beside him, the few prairie warriors who had been following him turned pale with shock.
