Chapter 38
When Zinn and Jingyu were in front of porters, Xinzheng, who was quiet in the night, gradually emitted strange figures, and figures cut through the night, jumping horizontally and rushed towards the same direction: the palace.
The soldiers patrolling the city did not even have time to react, but these peasant elites who were outstanding in night battles and street battles were wiped out by the night.
But the peasant family was still exposed. The fierceness of the Qin army was not only because of their terrifying combat power, but also because of their courage to die. When a peasant family killed a soldier in the city, one of the soldiers who were supposed to be killed by the peasant family was barely breathing a last breath.
Qin Bing, who had little life or even no life, tried his best to ignite the dry firewood piled up in front of a house on the street to spend the winter with his last breath.
"Who set the fire?" Tian Meng, who led a team of people toward the target, couldn't help but curse when he saw the firelight in the distance.
At this time, the farmer seemed to have easily solved many Qin soldiers who were responsible for patrolling the city, but Tian Meng knew that his side was just a trick at this time. Once the Qin army reacted and completed the assembly, not to say too much. Even if it was a team of 100 people, it would undoubtedly be a dream if the people on his side thought that it would be so easy to solve the other party.
But this fire completely exposed the farmer's actions, how could Tian Meng not be angry?
Looking into the direction of the Han Palace, Tian Meng no longer cared about anything else and led his subordinates to the palace at full speed. His idea of preserving his physical strength to deal with the next battle was no longer cared about.
At this time, he only hoped to be able to invade the palace before the Qin army completed large-scale assembly. Otherwise, whether the goal could be achieved, it was still a question whether he and his people could escape unscathed.
At the fire, Li Xin, who was leading a team of Qin soldiers, looked at the corpses in the streets with a look of ugly expression. Who was the person?
"Look for these people, no matter what, I have to find out. I want to see who dares to attack the soldiers of Qin." The bloody smell of soldiers under my command ignited the anger in Li Xin's heart. This was a naked provocation.
"Affect the order." The soldiers under Li Xin shouted in unison.
"Stop." Li Xin, who had run not far, suddenly grabbed the reins of his mount.
"Without any problem, I sent an order and marched towards the palace at full speed." Li Xin turned around and ran towards the palace, and he vaguely thought of a possibility.
And no matter whether that possibility is true or not, he must do this, because he can't afford that price. Even if it's wrong, even if he lets go of the murderers, he will not care about it.
It was not only Li Xin who noticed the abnormality. Under the light of the fire, the Qin soldiers stationed in Xinzheng City quickly took action. Unfortunately, most of the people were just chasing the peasant disciples exposed to their sight. Only a very small number of generals did not care about the peasant disciples hiding in the dark, and rushed towards the direction of the palace regardless of everything.
For a moment, the entire Xinzheng became completely restless, with the neighing sounds of people and horses, shouting and killing, and the cry of despair swept across like waves.
The restlessness in the city quickly reached Ying Zheng's ears. Looking through the window at the red sky under the increasing fire, Ying Zheng's face became extremely ugly.
Sure enough, they are all smart people. While they are calculating others, they are also calculating themselves. In order to make the layout as natural and confidential as possible, they did not make too many arrangements in advance. Everything was as usual, but they set the time for the several generals stationed around Xinzheng to send troops in advance.
The people from Xinlingjun's farmer may have hesitated whether the plan had been leaked, so they simply acted in advance. Even if Ying Zheng was prepared in advance, they would be caught off guard. As long as the Qin army's actions were delayed for a little time, it would be enough for them to do many things during this time.
The plan of Xinlingjun's farmer's action in accordance with the worst situation was just like God's will, and it was just fulfilled.
Due to the changes in Xinzheng, most of the attention of the Qin army was attracted elsewhere. Although several people noticed something wrong and led their troops toward the direction of the palace, there were still too few people.
When Li Xin's men and his peasant disciples collided head-on in front of the palace, Li Xin's heart completely sank. Sure enough, things were moving towards the worst direction.
"Call all the crossbowmen and observe the sky carefully. The assassin is likely to come from the sky." After experiencing the initial shock, Ying Zheng calmed down.
Although the plan has some minor setbacks, it does not hinder the overall situation. I just need to stabilize the period when the reinforcements arrived due to the enemy's early attack.
However, I really can't take advantage of it. If I hadn't been too greedy, I would never have been embarrassed now.
"No, you can't come here." Ying Zheng hesitated for a moment and continued, "Transfer the crossbowman to Yilan Palace.
After the orders of the guards, they quickly disappeared and then fell into the night, and began to gather people, while Ying Zheng remained in the original bedroom.
In such strange and unpredictable situations, the more you do, the more you may be wrong. Although this bedroom may have been exposed, the danger is at least in the clear place. If you leave here at this time, you may very likely put yourself in an unknown danger. Unknown danger is often the danger with the highest risk factor because you have no way to deal with it.
"When will we act?" Tian Guang couldn't help asking a man shrouded in a black robe in a courtyard not far from the palace.
"It's not the time yet." The man in black robe replied.
"When is the time? The city is now completely in chaos. If the Qin army discovers our real purpose and rescues the palace at any cost, we will have no chance." Tian Guang was still anxious.
"The palace is so big, do you know that Ying Zheng is sleeping in that palace tonight. If you rush in at this time, you will not be able to find Ying Zheng for a while, which will only waste more time and more variables." The man in black robe explained.
"But can we discover Ying Zheng's location just by waiting?" Tian Guang said in confusion.
"Yes, Ying Zheng is more anxious than us now. Faced with unknown dangers, Ying Zheng subconsciously chose to gather as much as possible to gather enough guards around him to protect himself. Once Ying Zheng does this, his position will be exposed with the direction of the palace guards moving. That is the best time to take action." Compared to Tian Guang's anxiety and eagerness, the man in the black robe must be much more rational, and will not affect his own judgment at all due to changes in the external situation.
"Disciple, what you listen to Changpingjun is that at this time, Changpingjun's wisdom is more important than our force." Just as Tian Guang was about to say something, he spoke out from one of the seven people around a huge mechanical beast.
"Yes." Tian Guang had no choice but to return to his position, and there was another empty space among the seven people that belonged to him.
The eight of them are the killer moves tonight. As for the three thousand peasant disciples who have now trapped the entire Xinzheng in the sea of fire, it is just to cooperate with them.
