What Zhao Gao received was not the exact information that Six Finger Black Man and others had arrived in the suburbs of Xianyang.
The dragnet is all-pervasive. Although the spies of the dragnet have penetrated into all walks of life among the seven countries, the efficiency of their intelligence capabilities is not yet as high as this.
Especially since the target also includes one of the few peerless masters like Six-Fingered Black Man.
The actual content of this information is very simple. It just says that spies with a trap have discovered traces of Mohist disciples.
In the past, it was impossible for this kind of information to be sent to Zhao Gao because it was unnecessary.
However, this time it was because of the emergency order issued by Zhao Gao not long ago, requiring all intelligence personnel in Luowang to target the Mo family. Once traces of the other party are found in the territory of Qin, they must report to Xianyang as quickly as possible.
The purpose is naturally to prevent the Mo family from coming to rescue people.
It is certainly not advisable to guard against thieves for a thousand days, but with the intelligence network of Luowang, you can wait until the news is received and then guard against it. It is still too late in terms of time.
This time, the people of the Mo family have indeed tried their best to hide their traces, so that Zhao Gao only received the news now.
It's a pity that it's still just one move away. If this information had been given a day later... no, a few hours later, their success rate in rescuing people would have been greatly improved.
Even though the chance of improvement is very slim...
Zhao Gao burned the secret letter and immediately left his mansion in a hurry without hesitation.
He has three things to do now.
First, report this matter to Yingzheng to get permission to arrange not to deploy defenses.
In any case, this matter directly involves Gongsun Li and Concubine Li, who have become concubines.
No matter how powerful the net is, he would not dare to mess around in the harem, especially the palace of the concubine.
Zhao Gao must first obtain Ying Zheng's permission before he can arrange for men to stay and watch near Concubine Li's palace.
The second thing is to arrange the manpower after getting permission. It is necessary to arrange the manpower for the trap and at the same time.
As for the third one, it is to contact people from the Yin and Yang family.
This is very important.
At this time, Luo Wang's Tianzi First Class stationed in Xianyang only had three people in total - Zhen Gang, Zhuan Po, and Mie Hun.
These are also three of the only five Tianzi first-class people in Luowang. The person who hides the sun is not in Xianyang. The last one is Duanshui, who is still seriously injured and doesn't know where to hide to heal his injuries secretly.
Including him as the leader, there are a total of four masters. Among them, the strength of the two of them, Zhanpo Dehuhun, is not so good. Together, they can only be regarded as one and a half top masters.
Together, they might be able to compete with a six-fingered black knight. If the Mo family still has masters, then... then they can only let low-level killers take the lead.
To be honest, it is not impossible for hundreds of elite killers to join forces and use their numbers to kill a top master, provided that they are willing to fight you to the end.
If you don't want to, it's absolutely okay to run.
According to Zhao Gao's thinking, he is actually unwilling to let the Yin and Yang family get involved and share his achievements and gains in vain. However, because of his current lack of strength, he can only bring in foreign aid.
The Yin-Yang family had suffered more losses than Luowang before, but they could always recruit three or four masters, which was at least enough to make their combat power equal to that of the Mo family.
In Xianyang, the home ground of the Qin State, a draw equals defeat for the Mohists.
Thanks to Zhao Gao's vigorous and resolute actions, everything was basically arranged in just half an hour.
Zhao Gao directly arranged for two personal guards to be given to Li Fei, namely the two sisters who turned around and destroyed their souls.
These two are twins who are naturally connected and can achieve near-perfect coordination in joint attacks without special training. They are talents that Zhao Gao discovered not long ago.
Because she is a woman, there is no need to take into account Li Fei’s identity.
Of course, Li Fei herself did not know that there were two highly skilled killers in her palace.
Luowen's killers are also being mobilized, but after all, they are not sure that the Mo family has arrived. The transfer is not urgent, and they are not arranging people in a swarm to Xianyang Palace. They are just ordering them to go to the Luowang stronghold around Xianyang Palace and wait.
Dispatch.
The Yin Yang family's response is even simpler, there is no response at all.
During this period of time, the Moon God, along with Mrs. Xiang and her sisters, stayed in Zhaixinglou just to be on guard against the Mo family.
The Star-Zhaing Tower is over a hundred feet tall and is located close to Xianyang Palace. Once there is a change in the palace, they can easily detect it.
Just after the Qin State took the most basic precautions, the six-fingered black knights also reached the vicinity of Xianyang Palace.
The time has now reached half past Xu, and it is already night, but under the reflection of the white snow, the sky and the earth are all bright white, which is not bright, but it does not affect the sight.
Because the manpower mobilization of the net had just begun, there was only a white silence around Xianyang Palace, and there was not much additional restlessness. The Mo family and the others were not aware that the Qin State was already on alert.
The six-fingered black man told Thief Zhi, who was about to sneak into the palace to save people:
"Xiao Zhi, we are in a hurry right now, and we don't know the movements of the trap yet. If you are frustrated when you enter the palace to save people, don't hesitate and immediately send out signal fireworks to ask for help."
Robber Zhi showed a rare solemn expression and nodded, "Don't worry, I understand."
"Then I'm going in."
After saying that, only an imperceptible whistling sound was heard, and the Hidden Man disappeared from the spot.
To him, the walls of Xianyang Palace were almost like walking on flat ground. His whole body turned into a white shadow and jumped over in an instant. The soldiers patrolling the palace walls did not notice the sound at all.
The Lightning God Walk is the unique secret skill of the best thief in the world, the best light kung fu movement in the world, and the instantaneous burst speed is almost close to the level of teleportation.
However, this movement technique is only suitable for short-term bursts and long-distance running attacks, and is not suitable for close combat. Moreover, when used with full force, it will cause a huge load on the user's body.
Thief Zhi's talent is even stronger than that of his teacher. At a young age, he has already mastered the lightning walking skills to the point where he can enter a house. However, due to the side effects, he rarely uses his full strength on weekdays.
This time, in order to save people, he did not care about the consequences.
After entering the palace, Thief Zhi did not run around.
He had already memorized the general map of Xianyang Palace, but he didn't know which palace Gongsun Li was in.
His top priority now is to find someone to 'ask' the way.
In Xianyang Palace after nightfall, there are countless palaces with lights on, but there are not many palace people walking outside, most of them are in groups.
Thief Zhi searched for a while before finally finding the two palace maids walking together.
He knocked them all unconscious, and then interrogated them separately. After confirming that the results he obtained were from the same place, he knocked them out again... completely passed out, hid them, and then headed straight for the target location. From now on, his time is limited.
The Imperial Guards of Xianyang Palace will discover the disappearance of these two palace ladies at any time. He had better rescue them before the Imperial Guards do.
