Chapter 495 Thousand Niu Jinwu

Huaiyuanfang, this is the place where Qianniuwei's heavy troops are stationed. Qianniuwei has 20,000 heavy troops in Chang'an County. Each yard has a small number of soldiers stationed, but there are heavy troops stationed near Xishi City, mainly to protect the security of Xishi City. Chang'an is not only the political center of the Tang Dynasty, but also another economic center other than Yangzhou. In the specific market, the two major markets of Xishi and Dongshi are dominated by Xishi. Among them, Xishi is the most important. Dongshi mainly sells luxury goods, while Xishi is a distribution center for bulk livelihood commodities, rice, oil, tea, cloth, etc. A large number of commodities come in and out of here every day, which strongly supports the stability of Chang'an and even Guanzhong. Therefore, protecting Xishi has become the top priority of Qianniuwei.

The Xicheng City and several surrounding yards, Huaiyuan, Yanshou, Guangde, Yankang, and Taipingfang are stationed in a large number of Qianniu Guard soldiers. In addition, because Taipingfang is the Dugu Mansion where Princess Zhao temporarily lives, Li Qing'an's only son also lives here. Therefore, there are nearly 5,000 soldiers stationed in a small Taipingfang, and almost all around Dugu Mansion are surrounded by military camps. In addition, Huaiyuanfang is the location of the Military Discipline Supervision Office and the General Intelligence Administration of the Anxi Army in the Central Plains, more than 3,000 troops are stationed here. This is also the reason why Li Qing'an placed Yang Yuhuan in Huaiyuanfang. There are heavy troops here, and even if someone is interested, it is difficult to leave the house.

When it was dark, the fine snow in the sky finally stopped, and there were more pedestrians on the street. Huaiyuanfang had a very large population because it was close to the west city. Many merchants rented houses here as warehouses and hired many people. The porters who were living in the street were also full of livelihoods. When the snow stopped, merchants, servants and porters who were transporting goods could be seen everywhere on the street.

Cihangyuan was still quiet, for a whole day, without any movement, no one went in or out. In a small tavern about a hundred steps away from Cihang, more than a dozen businessmen were gathering together to drink and have supper. In a small single room on the second floor, several drinkers had been staying for a day. Because they were given a lot of money, the hotel shopkeeper turned a blind eye and ignored them.

Two men sat in front of the window, staring at the situation around Cihangyuan with their eyes tightly. From morning to now, they have been paying attention for a day, and the paper in front of them is full of various intelligence.

"Look! It's coming again." One man whispered.

The two looked west together. Although they were far apart, they could still see a carriage coming to the west of Cihangyuan. The doors and windows were covered with dark curtains. This carriage was roughly no different from other carriages. However, its lantern was very special. It was a mountain cone-shaped lantern hanging on the right head of the carriage shaft. It was this mountain cone-shaped lantern that made it look unique and made the two men recognize it at a glance. This was the sixth time that the carriage had appeared at the entrance of Cihangyuan.

Undoubtedly, this carriage must have been sent by An Lushan, but this time, the carriage did not go around the yard again and again, but went directly through a small street west of Cihangyuan and went opposite Cihangyuan.

"I guess I'm about to start, go back and report!"

"You go report, I'll keep watching here."

A man folded the copied information into a ball, left the small room, and hurried down to the first floor. On the first floor, the shopkeeper was bowing his head to settle the accounts. More than a dozen drinkers were drinking, and several men held down one person, poured wine into him, laughing, and toasting sounds in a mess.

The man walked along the wall with his head down and quickly left the door. He untied a horse tied to the pillar at the door, turned over and rode away. At this time, the shopkeeper slowly raised his head and watched the man ride away. A strange smile appeared on the shopkeeper's face.

He looked up at the top again, waved his hand, called a guy, whispered to him several people. The guy nodded and quickly left the restaurant.

In fact, the two men who were surveillance in the restaurant made a mistake. If they came to this yard, they would know how big the mistake they had made. Six identical carriages were parked in this yard, covering the same dark curtains, and hanging a cone-shaped lantern on the right of the shaft of the car. However, the lanterns had been extinguished, and the six cars were parked there quietly, like six well-trained wolf dogs.

The yard is the backyard of a large mansion. The owner of the mansion is a Hu man who came to Chang'an during the Kaiyuan period. Someone gave the Hu man a ingot of ten taels of gold. He rented it for only three days. The Hu man immediately moved away with his wife and children.

This mansion undoubtedly has the best location, with a straight line of 60 steps away from Cihangyuan, but it is a few hundred steps more in the alley. However, for those with high martial arts skills, they can fly over the eaves and walk on the walls, but in fact, they are still sixty steps.

Not only that, the mansion is close to the wall, and the towering wall is the back wall of the backyard. If you dig a hole in the wall, you can directly exit Huaiyuanfang. In fact, the hole has been dug, and a large hole that is ten feet high and two feet wide has been dug on the wall. There is still a thin layer of wall skin between the street outside the yard. When you knock it with an iron pick, the wall skin will collapse.

At this time, it was already dark, and the sound of drums rumbling about closing the door of the fangmen resounded over Chang'an City. Everyone was rushing on the street, wanting to return to their own fang before the fangmen closed. The mansion was deserted and silent like a hollow gate. The people selected by An Lushan were the most elite of Fan Yang's army. They had the iron discipline. Although An Lushan knew that it was too risky to grab people under the nose of Anxi Army, his desire for the world's number one woman made him take risks desperately. He knew that if he didn't get Yang Guifei today, he would never have a chance.

The door of the living room was locked from the inside. There was no light in the living room. Only breathing was heard inside. Obviously, there were many people inside. At this time, a low voice sounded in the living room.

"Your time is very short, only one cup of tea, and you will withdraw immediately if you get the person. Don't consider whether you will be discovered by the Anxi Army. You will definitely be discovered. Whether you can leave alive depends on your speed of action. An Shuai is first, and all participants will be rewarded. The first person to seize Concubine Yang will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan and will be promoted to the third level."

"Action!"

After the low voice was finished, dozens of capable men in black rushed out of the house. They were all scouts from the Fan Yang army. After fighting and other martial arts training, they became the most elite team in Fan Yang army, with a total of 500 people. This time, An Lushan brought 300 people to Beijing and prepared to enrich the Chang'an intelligence agency. In this operation of hijacking Yang Guifei, two hundred people dispatched, fifty people attacked, and one hundred and fifty people responded.

Fifty men in black climbed up the wall and ran away, like rabbits rising and falling, fleeting, and swept towards Cihangyuan like a whirlwind.

In the backyard of this mansion, more than a hundred men in black were leading horses, and six carriages were mixed. There were too many people and they couldn't stand in the yard. Many people were waiting in the corridors and rooms. Two big men with picks stood on the side of the wall, one left and one right, and they could break through the wall with a command.

A bloody storm had already started in Cihang Courtyard. Perhaps the nun who was arrested that morning knew it was difficult to survive, so he deliberately said the wrong direction. Fifty men in black climbed over the wall and rushed into the northwest corner of Cihang Courtyard. This was not where Yang Guifei lived, but the courtyard where the nuns lived. Five or six screams were heard. Several old nuns who had just finished their homework were about to return to their room fell in a pool of blood. Each one was killed with one knife. The last nun pointed to the northeast corner tremblingly and was penetrated by a sword.

Fifty men in black rushed towards the courtyard in the northeast corner like a group of bats. The reward of 10,000 yuan and the temptation of promotion to the third level made them ignore the friendship between the army and only get it alone, that is the first person to seize Yang Guifei.

The screams of the old nuns passed through the quiet night and were hundreds of steps away. About one hundred and fifty steps south of Cihangyuan was the Qianniu Guard's military camp. The screams of the old nuns made the army boil. In the night, countless Niu Qiangu soldiers were rushing towards this side.

Time is indeed only a cup of tea. If the black clothes are slower for a moment, they will be surrounded by Qianniuwei. At this time, fifty men in black rushed into the yard where Yang Guifei lived from all directions. The yard was very quiet, covered with a thick layer of snow, and the room was dimly lit, as if people had already rested.

Fifty men in black rushed into the yard and rushed towards the three rooms in the yard. At this moment, the window paper of the three rooms was suddenly stabbed open, and nearly a hundred dark military crossbows stretched out of the window. Only a sound of a hanging trigger "click!" was heard, and one hundred crossbow arrows shot densely at the fifty men in black who were rushing towards them. No matter how good martial arts were, they could not escape. Only a scream was heard, and more than twenty people fell down instantly.

Fifty men in black were so scared that they fled out, but they could no longer escape. The surrounding walls were filled with Qianniu Guard soldiers holding military crossbows and holding swords and shields, as many as five or six hundred. The remaining twenty men in black were crowded with backs to back, squeezing into a group.

At this time, Hu Yunpei, the leader of the intelligence agency of Anxi Army in Chang'an, appeared. His face was full of disdain. An Lushan dared to attack under the nose of their General Intelligence Administration. He was simply disregardless of them. Cihang Academy was covered with spies, and the defense was so strict that An Lushan could imagine. The old farmer who did not need to buy vegetables came to report. Old Ni was missing for a day. Would they not be vigilant?

Maybe An Lushan never dreamed that there was a secret tunnel in Cihang Academy leading to the General Information Administration next door. Yang Yuhuan and her maid had long been moved away, and hundreds of elite soldiers were ambushed, waiting for these people who were not afraid of death to get trapped.

Hu Yunpei waved his hand and suddenly shot arrows at once. The last twenty or so people let out long screams and died in Cihangyuan.

The death of fifty men in black was just the beginning of a good show. The 150 responders in the backyard of the mansion heard a scream and realized that something was wrong. Then a brigade of horses ran towards this side. The horse's hooves were like muffled thunder. A soldier standing guard on the wall shouted: "No, a brigade of cavalry rushed towards this side."

Before he finished speaking, an arrow shot into the sentry, and the sentry whined and fell from the high wall with a whimper. Everyone in the courtyard sank into the abyss. At this time, the sound of smashing the door came from the front yard gate. Two strong men holding iron pickaxes did not hesitate and swung the pickaxes to the thin wall. In just two strokes, the wall collapsed, revealing a big hole. In an instant, one hundred and fifty cavalry rushed out of the big hole. At this time, thousands of Qianniu Guard cavalry had arrived dozens of steps away. General Nan Jiyun took the lead. He took the bow and arrow, and two arrows roared out. Two soldiers in black-clothed Fan Yang Army fell down.

One hundred and fifty black-clad cavalry rushed out less than half, and thousands of Niu Guards arrived like a frenzy, sealing the escaped hole. At this time, hundreds of Thousand Niu Guards soldiers had entered the front yard and attacked each other from the front yard. Dozens of people blocked in the courtyard were finally unable to escape and die.

But it was a shame for Nan Jiyun to escape. He quickly rushed to lead three thousand cavalrymen and chased them to 50,000 black-clad cavalry who escaped from the big hole by chance.

A dramatic scene happened at this time. Dozens of escapees escaped along the junction between Guangdefang and Yankangfang. From here, they escaped from Zhuque Street and entered the control area of ​​Jinwu Guard. There were also two fangs of Xinghua and Fengle. They had just run less than two miles away. A large group of cavalry suddenly appeared on the junction in front of them, blocking their way. The escapees thought they were blocked by Qianniu Guard. Just when they were in despair, someone suddenly discovered that it seemed that the Qianniu Guard was blocking the road ahead, but Jinwu Guard.

The group of escapees shouted excitedly, "We are the subordinates of Marshal An, save us quickly!"

The one who blocked the road ahead was indeed Jinwu Guard. The leader was named Jin Lin, who was one of Chen Xuanli's confidants. He led 500 people to secretly cross Zhuque Street and came to Chang'an County controlled by Qianniu Guard. His purpose was to stalk the cicadas. The oriole was behind him and snatch Yang Guifei from them before An Lushan.

In the darkness, Jin Lin saw dozens of people being chased by Qianniu Guards, and knew that the target had arrived. Jin Lin immediately asked loudly: "By coach An, come here to pick him up, have you succeeded?"

A group of people rushed forward and panted, "The other party was prepared for a long time, we failed."

Hearing this, Jin Lin's face changed drastically. He took a few steps back, waved his hand, and ordered viciously: "Kill!"

Five hundred Jinwu Guard soldiers rushed up and raised their swords to kill them. Unfortunately, the group of soldiers fell into the tiger's mouth before they escaped from the fire pit. The Jinwu Guard who thought they were here to save them turned into a life-chasing impermanence in a blink of an eye. Suddenly, curses and screams sounded.

At this time, Nan Jiyun led his army to arrive. He also recognized the other party and shouted sternly: "Does Jinwu dare to kill people in Chang'an County?"

Most of the fifty or sixty people have been killed, and the remaining twenty would rather surrender to Qianniu Guards at this time. They rushed out of the encirclement, rushed back to Qianniu Guards, knelt down and begged: "We are willing to surrender, surrender!"

More than a hundred Jinwu Guard soldiers wanted to rush up to get rid of the roots, but Jin Lin stopped him. He urged him to take a few steps forward and bowed: "Reporting to General Nan's question, we were patrolling the Zhuque Street, but suddenly we heard the shouts of killing here. We thought someone was going to be unfavorable to Qianniu Guard, so we came to support us."

"lie!"

An An Lushan soldier shouted angrily: "They clearly asked us if we had succeeded, they had ulterior motives."

"Damn the bastard!"

Jin Lin was furious and drew his sword and was about to rush up to kill the talkative soldier. Nan Jiyun suddenly pulled out his bow and pointed the sharp arrow at him. He said coldly: "Jin Lin, put down your sword, otherwise, I want you to die on the spot!"

After a stalemate for a moment, Jin Lin resented his sword back to the sheath and said, "General Nan, we are kind enough to help you. You can't believe this bastard's nonsense, right?"

At this time, two thousand Niu Guards rushed out from the crossroads between Xinghuafang and Fenglefang, which cut off the Jinwu Guard's retreat. A total of five thousand Niu Guards' troops blocked five hundred Jinwu Guards in the crossroads between the north and south.

Of course, Nan Jiyun knew that the Jinwu Guard was not so-called helping him. If they were either to come to support him or to take advantage of the situation, he snorted coldly and said, "Both sides must not cross Zhuque Street. This is the agreement signed by my general and the Superintendent of the State. In the past six months, the Qianniu Guard has never been to Wannian County, but the Jinwu Guard has broken through the boundary tonight. Our Qianniu Guard wants to ask His Highness of the State. Now, I order you all to dismount and all to kneel down on the ground. I only count three times. If anyone does not follow, kill them without any consequences!"
