Zheng Yuankui saw that the time had passed, but Li Shimin's people were nowhere to be seen.
This made him wonder, was there an accident?
Or did the news leak?
Zheng Yuankui was anxious. He felt like something was going to happen tonight.
Who did Li Shimin send?
Changsun Wuji or Li Jing?
Both of them are difficult to deal with. Changsun Wuji is vicious, cunning and unrivaled in resourcefulness. Li Jing is a genius in strategy and tactics. What he is best at is finding opportunities to strike and succeed with one strike.
If these two people came, he thought he wouldn't be able to play.
Information from outside the city was conveyed every half stick of incense, but every time it was Li Shimin who was missing.
But his people had discovered the place where Li Shimin's people were camping. Judging from the scale of the camp, the number of people was about two hundred.
But they disappeared tonight.
He had already thrown out such a big bait. It stands to reason that they would first kill Zheng's people outside the city and weaken Zheng's power.
They would even surround the area for reinforcements, consuming Zheng's power in the city, and in the end Xingyang would be destroyed without an attack.
They killed him unknowingly and put the blame on the bandits. Everyone knew it was Li Shimin who did it, but there was no evidence for the wealthy nobles in Shandong. He, the Zheng family, could only admit that he was unlucky.
But now...
"Oh no……"
There were horrified shouts outside, which shocked Zheng Yuankui, who was deep in thought, and he quickly stepped forward and opened the door.
"what happened?"
The officials ran all the way from the front yard and rushed into the backyard: "Chief, the bandits are attacking the south gate..."
Attack the South City Gate?
Damn it, what kind of medicine is being sold in the gourd?
You don’t play according to common sense at all!
When attacking the south city gate, even if the defense is relatively weak, they will not be able to get in for a while. Even if they successfully open the city gate, Zheng's reinforcements will soon surround them, and they will not even be able to get close to Zheng's old residence.
"Hahaha……"
Zheng Yuankui seemed to have figured something out and burst into laughter.
"I want to make a big move in the east and west, and make me exhausted, hahaha... I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you."
"Tell the soldiers guarding the city to let them enter the city and then capture them alive..."
It would be very interesting if the people sent by Li Shimin could be captured alive. This would become the biggest card in the hands of Shandong's wealthy nobles.
Li Shimin sent his henchmen to assassinate the Zheng family in Xingyang. What would the world think?
The butler had just finished delivering the order outside the gate and turned around to go back to the old house.
At this moment, a thunder suddenly sounded in his ears.
Then the earth trembled, earth and rocks flew everywhere, and the housekeeper who was about to turn around and enter the house was pushed out by a strong airflow and fell heavily to the ground.
When he got up from the ground, he felt his head was buzzing, his nose was bleeding, and his whole body was bleeding.
He shook his head and seemed to be hallucinating before his eyes.
Where is the old house?
This continued for a long time, and he felt much more awake, but his ears were still boiling.
But the old house in front of them was gone, the entire ground collapsed, and the old house on the ground turned into a pile of ruins.
"Clan leader..."
The housekeeper recovered from his panic and looked at the old house that had turned into a pile of ruins. He knew that the old patriarch was probably gone!
He dragged one leg and climbed into the ruins, but could not find any trace of the clan leader.
He was like an abandoned child, sitting helplessly in the ruins, calling for the patriarch hysterically, but the only response he received was endless smoke and dust.
In the entire old house, except for him who ran out of the house to deliver orders, there was almost no one alive, and everything was buried underneath.
Even if they were not crushed to death by the earth, rocks and rubble, they would still be shaken to death by the violent sound.
The soldiers guarding the old house were also affected. They looked at the old house in front of them in horror. With an explosion, it collapsed, followed by endless smoke and dust.
They were all frightened. They had never seen such a horrific scene before. It seemed that people in such a disaster were so insignificant that they could not describe it.
"Quick, hurry up and save people..."
Even further away is the old woman guarding the North City.
After they heard a loud noise, they felt that the tower began to shake. The soldiers on the tower were so frightened that they all ran away, thinking that the earth dragon had turned over.
But the trembling moment was very short, and he soon regained his composure.
"Go and check, what happened?"
Soon, the soldiers rushed over and shouted: "Elder of the clan, the old house is gone, the old house is gone."
The old woman was stunned. After a long time, her eyes were splitting with anger. She walked forward with a cane and asked: "What's going on? Why is the old house missing?"
This is too weird. No enemies have invaded, but the old house has disappeared?
Is there really someone in this world who can move mountains and reclaim seas?
"Elder of the clan, the old house was blown up by thunder, and the entire ground collapsed..."
"Boss...Boss is still at the old house. Follow me and go rescue people..."
The old woman led a group of people straight to the old house, but when they saw the old house that had been razed to the ground, they all fell silent.
This does not seem to be possible with human power. Is it really thunder?
"God, are you really going to destroy my Zheng clan?"
"What did our Zheng family do wrong?"
With tears in her eyes, the old woman asked people to dig through the ruins to save people, but even if they found people from the ruins, they were only corpses bleeding from all the orifices.
The boss's body was not found.
This is also Li Ke's fault. He had people put enough gunpowder bags under the living room and study room of the old house.
Not to mention an old house, even a palace, you can turn it over. He didn't want the Zheng clan members to live at all.
If Li Ke knew about it, Zheng Yuankui would send other old men and women to the front line.
Zheng Yuankui was the only one who ate alone, and shouted in frustration: "I have suffered a big loss."
Further away, the elders from other city-defending clans also learned that the old house was gone. They all dropped their defenses and came to the old house.
Until the news reached Zhuangzi outside the city, Lao Liu was completely confused.
When the enemy was attacking the south gate, the old house suddenly lay flat?
He took a few deep breaths. The eldest son was gone, the second eldest son was in prison, the third eldest son was dead, the fourth son was alive or dead, the fifth son was dead, the eighth and ninth sons went to Chang'an...
Now he is the only one left.
This is the enemy's conspiracy to force important members of the family to death step by step. This is to completely destroy the Zheng family!
He, the sixth child, must now cheer up and fight the enemy to the end.
But who is it?
Being able to have such a calculation would lead them to a desperate situation step by step.
"Immediately send an order to all the dead soldiers to surround and kill the Nanmen bandits. Don't let any of them go."
"yes……"
The order was sent to all Zhuangzi, and all the dead soldiers set off, under the cover of night, to kill the bandits who were attacking Xingyang City at the south gate.
At the same time, the old woman was furious and wanted revenge, and gathered all the capable warriors in the city to the south gate, vowing to kill all these bandits.
Li Ke stood on the hill. He originally wanted to enjoy the fireworks, but the firework was not powerful enough. It only blew up the Zheng family's old house and sent out a puff of smoke.
He didn't even know if those old guys were dead.
"Young Master, from Zhuangzi, which is closest to us, hundreds of men in black suddenly appeared and headed towards the south of the city."
"They were agile and decisive in killing. They discovered their subordinates and killed two of them..."
Li Ke's face was dark, and he was frightened for a while. The Zheng family indeed had a trump card. That old guy Zheng Yuankui had hidden it deeply enough!
They were testing each other last night, but they didn't send the strongest warriors.
He looked at Yan Pan. Fortunately, he brought a dog nose, otherwise he would have been here tonight.
"Let Yan Yunda and the others punish them to death, leaving no chickens or dogs behind."
