Because of its terrain, many thieves once hoped to be able to defend this dangerous location. It's a pity that Qi Yuxuan could allow thieves who harm the common people to appear near his Liancheng, so he came to sweep them every once in a while.
He slowed down the frequency of raiding here until all the bandits who tried to make an idea here were dead.
The Cuoya Mountain should be mainly defended, and the other two places will have to send some people to guard it in case of emergency, but both Qi Yuxuan and Wu Duan intuitively believe that those foreign assassins will definitely choose Cuoya Mountain.
In three days of effort, Qi Yuxuan and Xu Ziyu, who had nothing to do, visited the whole Liancheng, and even the slightly famous snack bars left their footprints... (There seems to be something wrong!!)
And these few days, Wu Duan, who was tired like a dead dog every day, looked at Li Xiaolin with sad eyes all day long, and watched Li Xiaolin's hair stand upright. He didn't seem to have offended this fox strategist recently, right
(Wu Duan: Hmph, I won't tell you that I'm taking anger! Can't I provoke Qi Yuxuan, can't I provoke you! o(￣ヘ￣o#))
After about five more days, Qi Yuxuan and Wu Duan, who had 'smuggled' out of the Pingxi Army Camp, quietly disappeared from the west gate of Liancheng. Although Xu Ziyu wanted to follow him, he made a special order. The things were not ready yet, so he had to leave a tooth mark on Qi Yuxuan's neck angrily, and then agreed to find them in two days.
About to enter the twelfth lunar month, the various markets in Liancheng became more and more lively, and the people of the surrounding villages came to purchase the New Year's items with great joy. Those satisfied smiling faces comforted all the soldiers of the Pingxi Army.
They fought bloody battles with foreigners on the battlefield, just to see ordinary people with happy smiles on their faces.
Compared with the liveliness of Liancheng, the Pingxi Army Camp has also started preparations for the New Year on the surface, but it is a serious atmosphere that hides this warm atmosphere.
Each battalion had more or less some soldiers being transferred away. Such a transfer was somewhat unusual for the Pingxi Army, but it did not arouse anyone's vigilance.
Li Xiaolin's guards are all ready to go. Tomorrow is the day when they return to the capital, which also means that they will become bait for foreign assassins.
For such a task, these elite guards were not afraid. The only thing that gave them a headache was that Li Xiaolin didn't know what to do, so he wanted to go back with them in a carriage.
According to Wu Duan's plan, it should be to let Prince Anping ride the carriage on the surface, but in fact quietly find someone to replace him. After all, for such a dangerous task, his sassy carriage must be the focus of the enemy's attack. Even if Wu Duan didn't like Li Xiaolin, he couldn't risk the life of Prince Anping.
Who knew that Li Xiaolin didn't know what to think, but he wanted to be a hero, and he simply made the bait himself, and all the guards were shocked.
Don't be funny, they made the bait this time to kill those foreign assassins. For the guards who are responsible for protecting the safety of the royal family, this may be the only chance to kill foreigners, and they cherish it very much. But if Prince Anping is on the field, I am afraid they can only care about protecting the prince, so what else is there to kill the enemy...
The most terrifying thing is that swords have no eyes. If the prince has an accident, they will all be buried with them! They can still be called heroes if they die in the hands of foreigners. If they are given death because of the disadvantage of protecting the prince, it is simply the most suffocating way to die in the world...
Whether it was the persuasion of the head guard or Wu Duan's cynicism, they could not dispel Li Xiaolin's belief in becoming a hero. Even Ruoming's persuasion was reprimanded by the prince, so he shrugged to the poor guards, expressing that he was helpless. ╮(╯_╰)╭The king's idea has been decided, and these poor guards have to check the safety of the carriage over and over again. In order to prevent accidents, they specially purchased some iron plates and placed them in the carriage, otherwise the ambush assassins If you send a thousand arrows, it's too late for them to cry.
The appearance of the modified carriage has not changed, it is still the same: Come and rob me. However, because of the steel plates installed, the windows on both sides are tightly sealed. Fortunately, it is winter now, and it is common to seal the windows in order to prevent the cold, otherwise it is easy to reveal their purpose just by not opening the windows.
After some careful arrangement, Prince Anping's frame was finally pulled from the camp of the Pingxi Army.
The foreign assassins who got the news immediately fell behind them quietly and chased after them, but they didn't know that after they left the hiding place, the Pingxi Army's camp immediately sent a team to capture all the families where they were hiding. stand up.
Liancheng has been under the control of the Pingxi Army for more than ten years. It is not much different if you know it well. The consumption of any family in the city suddenly increases. Just a little investigation can understand the reason. If they don't attack them in the city, they are afraid that they will jump over the wall and kill ordinary people in Liancheng.
Wu Duan looked coldly at the middle-aged man who was curled up and shivering on the ground, and a row of old and young were kneeling behind him.
Wu Duan touched his chin and smiled happily, but there was no smile in his eyes: "I'm just wondering, as a commoner of Daliang, how many times have those foreigners burned, killed, looted in this northwest frontier, how many times are you actually Covering their assassins for that little money, tell me, what do you think?"
The middle-aged man didn't even dare to take his head off, he just lay on the ground tremblingly. The Pingxi Army soldiers who were like wolves and tigers swarmed up and pulled him off the bed. Now looking at the soldiers in the yard, He knew that his end had come.
"Why? Don't say it? Or... can't think of any good reason?" Wu Duan sneered.
The middle-aged man was pale and said nothing.
The soldiers around looked at the people in this yard with hatred on their faces. They are fighting desperately on the battlefield, the purpose is to protect one side of the people, but there is such a villain who is greedy for money, to cover up the assassins of foreign tribes for a little profit! Don't they know what kind of losses these assassins will cause to the people when they enter the hinterland of Daliang
Do not! they know! But they don't care! In their eyes, only those gold and silver jewelry, exquisite antique calligraphy and paintings, they don't care about other people's lives!
If these people were spies of foreigners, maybe these soldiers wouldn't hate them so much, but this family has lived in Liancheng for decades. Every year they see the battle between Daliang and foreigners. But still made a choice that everyone hates.
Wu Duan looked at the people who were kneeling all over the yard, old and young, men and women, and gradually the smiles on his face disappeared. These people enjoy the protection of the Pingxi Army, but they do things that communicate with foreign countries, they should be killed!
"Take it away! Not one left!" Wu Duan gave an order, and the soldiers beside him rushed up immediately, ignoring the cries of these people and begging for mercy, gagged their mouths, tied their hands and dragged them away.
Wu Duan seemed to have never heard the cries of the whole courtyard. The fate of these people was already doomed at the moment they sold out the interests of the country, and no one could control them!
Wu Duan stayed in Liancheng to deal with the aftermath, while Xu Ziyu hurriedly followed Shi Tao to Cuoya Mountain with a bitter face.
Shi Tao left a little earlier than Li Xiaolin, so Xu Ziyu was not worried that he would not be able to change Xiao Xuanxuan in time.
only…
qaq, it hurts my ass to ride a horse... He doesn't think he will be able to master this skill in his life...
"Doctor Xu... Can you be gentle? My waist will be broken by you." Shi Tao said to Xu Ziyu with a bitter face. Because Xu Ziyu did not master the skill of horseback riding, Shi Tao had to take turns with a few soldiers who were particularly good at riding him.
I don't know if he was unlucky or what. When it was his turn, the road was very difficult to walk, and the horses were bumpy when they ran. As a result, Xu Ziyu was afraid of tipping him down and hugged Shi Tao's waist tightly.
Xu Ziyu's strength is not small at all, Shi Tao doesn't need to lift his clothes to see that his waist is properly green.
Xu Ziyu is also very depressed. He is also riding a horse. When he is sitting behind Qi Yuxuan, he can still have the leisure to tease him, but when he is carried by Shi Tao or others, why does he feel that his life is not guaranteed... _ (:з"∠)_
"I... do my best..." Xu Ziyu really didn't dare to give an affirmative answer, because this was his instinctive reaction to the safety of his life, and he couldn't control it. In fact, if it's possible, he doesn't want to... The waist of other men is so tight, if Xiao Xuanxuan finds out, he will definitely not have any good fruit to eat. tat Shi Tao silently laden tears in his heart, Doctor Xu is the future general's wife, he really doesn't want to have such close contact with him ah ah ah...
The general is also quite cautious at certain times, and he doesn't want to hit the muzzle at all!
As soon as Shi Tao gritted his teeth, he simply accelerated the speed of the Mercedes-Benz. Coupled with Xu Ziyu's restraint, he finally arrived at Cuoya Mountain before being strangled.
Qi Yuxuan and the others have dug traps in the area of Cuoya Mountain. There are only two suitable ambush locations here, at the two ends of the cliff. The group of foreign assassins cannot divide their troops because of the number of people, so the most likely way is to wait. After the convoy entered the cliff trail, they blocked their way to prevent them from asking Liancheng for help.
In the past few days, Qi Yuxuan had set up ambushes in both places, but after discovering that the foreign assassin's scouts had been observing the terrain at the entrance of the cliff, he concentrated on ambushing at least a hundred people on that side. Elite soldiers, no matter how many they are, it is easy to be exposed.
When Xu Ziyu arrived, Qi Yuxuan was already in ambush, waiting for those foreign assassins to jump into the pit. Seeing Shi Tao and the others appearing, Qi Yuxuan greeted them by himself, took them around, and came to a very hidden cave.
Shi Tao almost tearfully handed Xu Ziyu over to Qi Yuxuan, then limped away with his hands on his waist.
