A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1182

[Chapter 1172 Conspiracy]

As soon as the man finished speaking, everyone present showed excitement.

“Although the state of Chu is pressing the prince step by step, and even dug a fire pit to force the prince to jump down, but the prince thinks that most of you have a family and business, and can’t bear to burden everyone too much.” Dai Ling sighed: “The prince has the grace to rebuild Dai. , My life belongs to the lord for a long time, so I can’t see that the lord is not as good as the fire pit, and I have to fight to the death, but you can still make a choice now.”

“General Dai, what do you mean by that?” Someone sneered: “You are so generously favored by the prince, aren’t we? I don’t care what others think of me, and I will dedicate my life to the prince!”

Hearing the words, the others swore allegiance.

“Okay!” Dai Ling said: “You are all loyal and courageous people. Since we have made up our minds, there is nothing to say. Please come out and sit for us!”

“Your Highness?” Someone asked in surprise, “Didn’t Your Highness take Mount Huangshan? Could it be…!”

Suddenly a voice was heard laughing: “It’s just a strategy to attack the west.” Amidst the laughter, a person walked in through the side door, and everyone looked over by the firelight.

Everyone was shocked and immediately fell to the ground.

“All get up, all get up.” Li Hongxin raised his hand and said: “After many years, all of you and this king are still in the same heart, which makes this king very moved.” He walked over and helped the two of them up, and the others also stood up one after another. rise.

Behind Li Hongxin, Long Shi Ximen Yokono followed like a shadow.

Li Hongxin walked in front of Lu Yi, patted Lu Yi’s shoulder, and said warmly, “Lu Yi, you have made the first merit, this king will remember it, and after the event is completed, we will discuss the merit and reward.”

Lu Yi bowed and said, “I am willing to go through fire and water for the prince.”

Li Hongxin smiled again, and then said: “Brothers, Lu Yi has already brought in the weapons from outside the city. Everyone knows that when the Chu army was overwhelmed, this king was helpless, so he handed down the table to the Chu people. To tell the truth, this king never wants to restore Shu land. This is our land. The people here are also our people, but they will be oppressed by the people of Chu. In recent years, the state of Chu has been aggressive in our land. The so-called unification of the world, my people in Shu have suffered a lot, but it can be said that the people are struggling to live, and this king must not sit idly by, so I have made some preparations in secret.”

One person couldn’t help but said: “It turns out that the prince has been preparing in secret, the last general… The last general just thought that the prince had long forgotten to revive the land of Shu, and he has been sad for many years.”

“Hahaha…!” Li Hongxin caressed his beard and smiled: “A man can bend and stretch, but he can’t be without ambition. This king attracts the attention of the government, but secretly asks General Dai to store weapons, but the hidden equipment was almost destroyed. Qi Ning found out that it was fortunate that it was transferred in time, and the weapons currently stored are enough to equip four or five thousand people.”

Everyone present was stunned.

They all came from the military, and they knew that they needed to equip four or five thousand people, and the weapons and equipment needed were indeed a large number. Over the years, Li Hongxin has been closely monitored by the government, and the government will stare at the slightest movement. How did Li Hongxin store such a huge batch of weapons? After all, the Great Chu issued a saber hunting order after the establishment of the country. Sharp weapons and horses are the two things that are most strictly managed by the government. Found out, it is equivalent to the crime of treason.

It is precisely because of this that there are almost no wrought iron workshops in the private sector. Even if it is a blacksmith shop, every piece of iron ware made must be registered in the register, and the iron ware made must also be engraved with the name of the blacksmith shop to facilitate the government to check.

Therefore, there is hardly any weapon forging in Xichuan, and the equipment needed for Xichuan soldiers and horses is also allocated by the imperial court.

If Li Hongxin wants to forge weapons, in addition to ore, he also needs skilled craftsmen. Xichuan has craftsmen who have the skills to forge weapons, and there are records in the government. The movements of these people are also under the attention of the government. Therefore, Li Hongxin is very difficult in terms of minerals and craftsmen.

Li Hongxin seemed to see everyone’s doubts,

Said: “You all live and die together with this king, and this king will not hide from you. These weapons have been brought from the East China Sea over the years, and they cannot be transported too much each time. It also took a lot of thought.” He raised his finger and pointed at Lu Yi and said, “All of this is also due to Lu Yi. The Yiwei Escort Bureau has secretly helped this king to transport weapons over the years, and for this purpose, it has opened up a way to enter the customs. Although a lot of money was spent, today it seems that the money spent is really worth it.”

“Donghai?” A subordinate said in surprise: “Your Highness means that these weapons come from the East China Sea?”

“The tyranny of the state of Chu is not the only one suffering in our country.” Li Hongxin sneered: “Back then, the Han family, the king of the East China Sea, was also a dominant party in the East China Sea. Later, they were defeated by the state of Chu. The family of the East China Sea was bullied by the state of Chu. We are also preparing to raise troops. During the Qinhuai War, we were not fully prepared and could not act rashly. When the Chu army was ready to go on another northern expedition, the East China Sea rebelled, and this king echoed from the Xichuan side. ”

“So it is.” Someone sighed: “I heard that the Jiang family in the East China Sea was wiped out by the imperial court, and the culprit was also named Qi. If it is… ah, it’s a pity.”

“Jinyi Qi’s family has always been our great enemy in Xichuan.” Someone said: “My lord, this time we must cut the surname Qi with a thousand swords, and let the Jinyi Qi family cut off their sons and grandsons.” Speaking of cutting off sons and grandsons, Li Hongxin’s eyes twitched slightly. , there was a cold murderous intent in his eyes.

Li Hongxin only had his only son, but he was killed a few months ago. Although there is no direct evidence to prove that he was related to Qi Ning, everyone knew what happened at that time. The prince’s death had nothing to do with Qi Ning, and no one believed that.

The Prince of Shu was killed, and Li Hongxin was at an advanced age, and it was extremely difficult to have a child. If no heir was born, the Li family of the Shu King, which had been passed down in Xichuan for hundreds of years, would be completely cut off from descendants.

Ximen Hengye didn’t speak for a while, and finally took a step forward and said: “Everyone, in order to attract the attention of Qi Ning and Wei Shutong, the lord used a substitute to go to Huangshan. That substitute was secretly trained by the lord for many years. The appearance and appearance are eight or nine points similar to the prince, and if you hide it a little bit, no one can recognize it at all.”

Only then did everyone understand that the King of Shu who went to Huangshan to worship his mother turned out to be Li Hongxin’s stand-in.

“Your Highness is out, Wei Shutong and Qi Ning naturally couldn’t have imagined that we would act tonight.” Ximen Hengye looked solemn: “Everyone disguised themselves into pieces and entered the city in disguise, and Yang Lin, the general of the south gate, is also a person of His Highness. It has been hidden for a long time, just waiting to be used today. You come in from the south gate and are protected by Yang Lin. Naturally, it is impossible for Wei Shutong to pay attention to this matter, so he can’t think of it. Today we are silent, More than 400 elites have already sneaked into the city.”

“Changshi, there are less than 100 guards at the governor’s house, and we far outnumber them.” A subordinate said: “If you kill them at night, they will be caught off guard, and they will succeed in one fell swoop.”

Ximen Yokono took a map out of his sleeve and spread it on the table. The crowd formed a circle. When they saw that this map was the city defense map of Chengdu Fucheng, there were signs on the streets of Chengdu.

“Wei Shutong has 2,000 guards under his hands, but he has transferred hundreds of people to Heiyanling, so he can use only more than 1,000 people now.” Ximen Hengye said: “These more than 1,000 people are distributed in Defense in the city.” He stretched out his finger and pointed at a few places: “The guards are mainly guarding the four city gates. Everyone knows that each of the four gates has two hundred people on duty all year round, so the four gates are scattered with Wei Shutong’s nearly 1,000 troops. , This is the barracks of the guards, and several hundred people have been transferred, and there are only five or six hundred people here.”

Everyone held their breath, knowing that Ximen Yokono was making deployments in place of Li Hongxin.

“In terms of military strength, even if we transfer all the Jin Guanwei to the city, we can’t compare with their military strength, and the time is too rushed, it is too conspicuous, today we can only sneak into the hands of hundreds of And we can’t drag it any longer, so we can only rely on these people in our hands for this operation.” Ximen Yokono looked stern: “We can’t beat them in military force, but we have an advantage, UU Reading wwwww .sonicmtl.com was a surprise victory. The king’s stand-in attracted their attention. They didn’t expect that the king was still in charge of the overall situation in the city. , we have the upper hand in force.”

Dai Ling nodded and said, “But once the governor’s house is killed, the governor’s guards will soon be able to detect it.”

“The Governor’s Mansion is in the center of Chengdu Mansion, and it is far away from the four gates.” Ximen Hengye smiled gloomily: “We kill the Governor’s House, even if someone asks the guards for help, it will take nearly half an hour to rush there, and wait for the four gates. The officers and soldiers rushed to the governor’s mansion for rescue, which would take an hour to add up, and the northeast corner barracks. In order to separate the soldiers and the people, Wei Shutong set up the barracks in the northeast corner. The distance between the guard barracks and the governor’s mansion was no closer than four gates. So we have an hour to act, as long as we can control the Governor’s House within an hour, then this operation will be considered a success.”

Dai Ling said, “That’s right, I took hold of Qi Ning and Wei Shutong, and controlled the governor’s mansion. The governor’s guards were all headless, just scattered sand. When the prince came forward, no one of those people dared to move.”

“When we attacked the governor’s mansion, there were still nearly a hundred guards in the palace, and they would quickly rush to the armory.” Ximen Yokono pointed at a place on the map with his finger: “We control the governor’s mansion, and they can quickly control the armory. , before dawn tomorrow, the rest of Jin Guanwei’s soldiers and horses will be able to rush to the city. At that time, the city gate will be blocked, and the heads of Qi Ning and Wei Shutong will be hung. With a call, the big thing is done.”
