Chapter 1890 Construction begins!
Wengsu jumped down from the tree when he heard the sound: "Come on, come on, are you going to Xiucheng now?"
"No, Qiao Guo."
"Ah?" Weng Su is one of the few insiders of Zi's plan. After all, the two brothers were the middlemen between the Black Armored Army and Baoshi Li. "It wasn't originally planned to be Xiucheng?"
"It's changed. The news we received ten days ago has changed. Our people also used commercial goods to ambush them." Dr. Bo gave him the note. "Look, the Lord has confirmed the target of the operation again."
It was written in code, and it took the Weng brothers several months to memorize the code.
"Okay, let's do it!" Weng Xing was gearing up, but Weng Su was a little worried.
"The goal is to change the city from a city to a country. Do we have enough manpower?"
"The emperor's prediction is accurate and will not be wrong." Shi Li said seriously, "Xicheng is indeed a good target, but the Qiao Kingdom just turned upside down twenty-five days ago, and people's hearts are unstable. Now is a good opportunity to take action."
"Twenty-five days ago?"
Weng Xing interjected: "You were out on business at that time, and the Qiao Kingdom changed its monarch."
"Changing the king...it's such a big thing, but you won't tell me when I come back?" Are we still brothers?
"I, I forgot. In this place, if you beat me today, I'll beat you tomorrow, it's normal to change the country's name. The people are the same, the city is still the same city, what's so strange about changing the king?"
Seeing that the two brothers were angry and about to fight, Bo Boli quickly changed the subject: "The new king of Qiao State is weak. Less than half a year after he took the throne, his own brother came to the city and forced him to give up the throne. He said that it would not hurt the harmony, and it would be better for the two brothers in the future. .This stupid king really believed it and opened the city gate. As a result, after his brother entered the city and took the throne, he not only killed him, but also slaughtered all his eight heirs and five veterans. ."
Wengsu spat on the ground: "Without faith and righteousness, the position is unfair!"
"In short, it has only been twenty-five days since the new king took office, and it has only been twenty days since he killed his own brother. The whole court dared not speak out, but the people scolded him very loudly. Because he did not control the troops strictly when he led the army into the city, and the soldiers took the opportunity to They looted and extorted money in the city, but he didn't take it seriously afterwards. When the civilians scolded them, they even took our black-armored troops with them."
"Oh?" Weng Xing was curious, "How did you say that?"
"The common people threatened that the Dragon God would take over this unscrupulous monarch for them. You also know that there are rumors everywhere that the Dragon God is about to sweep across the Flash Gold -" Of course, these legends were spread by them. Doctor Li turned around and ordered his subordinates After packing up his weapons, he continued, "This new king is probably very angry and scared to death. He doesn't allow the people to talk nonsense, and even arrests the loudmouths and throws them into prison; they also don't allow the people to privately worship the Dragon God and the Nine Nether Emperor. , once caught, either the hands or the head will be chopped off. In the past 20 days, it is said that at least a dozen heads were chopped off."
Weng Xing groaned: "Isn't this a prophecy? They are looking forward to the Black Armor Army, and the Black Armor Army will naturally come!"
Weng Su also nodded: "No wonder this note mentioned, 'The Qiao people are thinking about the Dragon God even more, and they are eager for the arrival of the black armor, so it is appropriate to be the first one.'"
No wonder the emperor asked them to start their campaign from here. It turned out to be based on public opinion. However, "The emperor is hundreds of miles away. How do you know that the people of Qiao are more concerned about the Dragon God?"
If there was an unknown girl a hundred miles away who missed him, how would he know? At most, his nose would be a little itchy.
Doctor Li exhaled a long breath, and his heart was also surging: "We cannot fathom the power of the Dragon God."
Wengsu was still in casual clothes, only tied up his belt and stretched his neck——
"Let's go!"
"It's a departure." Weng Xing corrected him, "We have to disguise ourselves as a caravan and go in to dispatch a dozen cars of goods."
…
Two days later, the capital of Qiao Kingdom.
It was late at night and the streets were deserted. The noticeboards under the city gate were covered with announcements, but a gust of wind came from nowhere and blew the top one away.
The handwriting of the notice is very new, and the general idea is that the birth of the Dragon God is pure nonsense, misleading the public, and public discussion is prohibited. Violators will be punished with a rod and thrown into prison; private worship is prohibited, and offenders will be beheaded.
When this kind of notice is first posted, there will be people standing next to it, beating gongs, making repeated orders, and reading the notice loudly to the illiterate citizens.
Now no one cares about it when it lands on the ground. The wind blows it to someone's feet, and after a few squeaks it is blackened.
This man is the watchman.
It was almost the second watch. He held the gong in his hand but did not strike it, but walked around under the city gate.
The city is closed in the evening. There should be six city guards guarding the gate, but there are only four here. The other two are more senior and secretly hide in a room between the city walls and sleep.
These four soldiers were standing crookedly and drowsily. Two of them were leaning against the wall and taking a nap.
This poor class can be worth whatever you want, but the salary is pitifully low anyway, and you can't make a few big bucks a day.
The watchman walked around lightly, then turned around and quickly made two gestures towards the inn.
There is no mistake, every song is published and every content is read one by one!
Behind the city gate is usually a post station for long and short-distance merchants to feed their horses, rest, and transfer.
Not far away is the headquarters of the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce, and the back door quietly opens.
So a dozen figures jumped out from the back door of the Chamber of Commerce, walked around the back of the stable, and rushed towards the door.
Logically speaking, there should be no obstacles near the city wall, but not only was this area occupied by the inn, there were also three or four sheds erected by the road tax collector.
These dozen people hid behind the shed and rushed behind the guards in two seconds.
With two bangs, the two fell to the ground. One of the guards suddenly woke up and was about to scream, but was choked from behind.
As soon as the last person had regained his breath and before he could open his mouth, he received a heavy blow on his temple - the watchman was using a stick tonight, not a gong.
Putting down the guards, these people quickly pushed down the iron bolts and opened the capital gate!
There were also people patrolling the top of the city wall, but for some reason, after eating two pieces of naan bread for dinner as usual, I yawned all day long, couldn't open my eyelids, and found a deserted corner to lie down at night.
There was a lot of noise below the city, like the sound of horse hooves. The two men barely opened their eyelids and looked down -
Someone.
Huh? Someone?!
A thick crowd of people and horses poured into the city!
Ah? Ah? What happened? The two of them were so frightened that they ran away. They were about to knock on the big bell on the city gate to warn them. Suddenly, several arrows were shot at their feet. Two men in black armor came out from outside the wall.
He jumped in and shouted, "The black-armored army is entering the city. If you don't want to die, go down!"
It has been rumored for so many days, but the black-armored army is really here? The two guards looked at the armor on their bodies, and then at the dragon flags waved by the army below the city, thinking they were dreaming.
Until the other side raised the crossbow and pointed it at them again, the two men suddenly regained consciousness.
Without wasting a second, they slipped down the stone steps and down the city wall without even ringing the bell. Anyone who dared to confront the black-armored army would go up, but they wouldn't do it anyway!
