Iron Dynasty

In the darkness of the night, you can hear a needle falling on the ground quietly in Chang'an.

At this time, a black figure came out of the princess' mansion and went to the location of the firearms battalion. Holding Yang Zhen's hand letter, the servants of the princess' mansion went to the firearms battalion after several rounds of checks by the night guards.

At the same time, Li San had returned to his residence. Unlike the streets outside the Minfang, there were no soldiers patrolling the Minfang. When night fell, Li San blew out the candles in the room.

Feeling in the dark, Li San lifted his bed board, and a faint light came from under the bed board. Below this was a secret passage, and the location of the secret passage ran through Luo Quan and Fiji's mansion.

After the Secret Guard entered Chang'an, this secret passage had already been excavated, so that Fiji and Luo Quan could secretly discuss the changes in Chang'an City and how to deal with it.

And because Luo Quan's mansion and Fiji's mansion are only 200 meters apart, the excavation of this secret passage is not difficult, but even so, this secret excavation has been carried out for almost three months.

The secret guards who are responsible for digging every day will always pretend to be grain merchants to store grain and then transport it out, but in fact, it is only the soil in the secret road that is transported out.

Going down the secret road, Li San went to one end of the secret road, which was Luo Quan's mansion.

Dong dong dong, dong dong dong.

When they got to the exit, Li San tapped six times in a row. This was the code between them. After the sound rang, the exit was opened, and the butler in the general's mansion was standing by.

Commander Li, the general has been waiting for a long time, please hurry up. The old butler said solemnly.

Li San nodded, followed the old butler to the main hall of the General's Mansion, and saw Luo Quan wearing armor and a sword hanging from his waist, looking at the map of Chang'an on the wall.

General. Li San bowed and saluted, and now Chang'an is extremely corrupt. The only people in Chang'an that he can really trust are Luo Quan and Fei Zhongshu. After all, one of these two is a son in the Qingzhou Army, and the other is a The father-in-law of the King of Qi.

Luo Quan turned to look at Li San and asked, What happened to Du Heng? Did you kill him?

No, General Du claimed to be under the emperor's will, and now he is still in the princess' mansion. Li San said.

Luo Quan frowned when he heard the words, At this time, it's hard to tell what's real and fake, and we can't trust him.

What the general said is very true, so in order to prevent Du Heng from leaking secrets, the princess left Du Heng in the princess' mansion, and now there are secret guards in the princess' mansion watching secretly. The princess can't live. Li San said.

Out of prudence, he did not expose the secret guard in the princess mansion, but let the secret guard keep watch over the princess mansion. As Luo Quan said, no one can fully believe it at this time.

Well, as expected of King Qi, his mind is really meticulous. Luo Quan looked at the map of Chang'an City again, and said: The firearms battalion now has only 8,000 musketeers, while the Youwuwei has 50,000 soldiers and horses. , the guards of the outer palace are 20,000 people, but the guards of the outer palace are very difficult to deal with, hey, it is a pity that Jinwuwei is stationed outside the city, if there is their help, I will not worry.

Li San heard the words and said, General, our purpose this time is only to rescue Concubine Zhen and the emperor, and entering the palace is only second, the real purpose is to attract the troops of the inner and outer palace guards, and there are artillery pieces from the firearms battalion, the city gate. It can be shattered in an instant.

Luo Quan sighed, That's right, as long as we can rescue Concubine Zhen and the emperor this time, then with the support of His Royal Highness King Qi, we can make a comeback. For this reason, the old man will not hesitate to sacrifice his life. .

Don't be afraid of the general, and accompany the general.

At this moment, a voice sounded, but it was Fiji who came to the two.

Luo Quan said, My eyebrows are on fire now. Why are you here now?

I have to make this city of Chang'an chaotic, otherwise how can I take the opportunity to rescue the emperor and concubine Zhen. Fiji said.

Li San knew everything for a long time, and he explained: Today, Fei Zhongshu told the third emperor and the fourth prince what happened in the palace in his own letter. The book personally told it, and the firearms battalion attacked the city tomorrow, so they couldn't help but not believe it.

Well, it makes sense. Many of the generals in Zuo Wuwei and Qianniuwei belong to the third and fourth princes. Tomorrow, even if they don't want to help, they will inevitably run for their lives. Once King Zhao enters the capital, they can only be reduced to Proton. Luo Quan said.

Fiji said at this time: We can't control the actions of the third prince and the fourth prince. The most reliable one is ourselves. I have gathered all the guards at home, and I will only wait for tomorrow morning to attack the city with the firearms battalion.

The guards in my house are all ready. Luo Quan's face showed a hint of determination, and then he looked at Li San, Li San, our family will be handed over to you.

Li San's expression became solemn, and he nodded heavily.

At this time, the three continued to discuss the siege of the city tomorrow, and then agreed to spread the news of the prince's murder of the king in Chang'an City in the morning to create chaos.

While the three of them were discussing the matter, the third prince and the fourth prince were like ants on a hot pot.

Originally, they were suspicious of Xiao Wenxuan's serious illness, but now Fiji's superstition made them panic.

Third brother, this time we should help each other, the prince will usurp the throne, and then he will definitely kill you and me, and the king of Zhao's 100,000 black armor and iron will be on horseback. Today, the fourth prince stayed in the third prince's mansion for a banquet, and the two have been discussing this matter.

Pacing back and forth, the third prince said impatiently: What are you anxious about, what if this is Xiao Ming's conspiracy? You and I are just watching on the sidelines, this Concubine Zhen is trapped in the palace, the most anxious thing is Xiao Ming, if he doesn't move, we can't move.

The anxious expression on the fourth prince's face did not diminish when he heard the words, and he said, What if it is true? How shall we deal with ourselves from now on?

How to deal with yourself? When King Zhao enters the capital, I am afraid that the surname in this world may be Zhao instead of Xiao. You and I can only return to Yan and Chu countries.

The State of Yan and the State of Chu. The fourth prince noticed the change in the words of the third prince, and he still understood what the third prince was thinking, he said, Our mother and concubines are also in the palace, even if they go their separate ways, they have to take care of themselves. Let them take them away, after all, this is the mother-in-law's home.

The third prince nodded, That's why I said that we can only wait for Xiao Ming's troops to move first, so we have a chance of winning.

In that case, let's continue to wait. The fourth prince sighed, then he sat down and stared at the burning candle,

As time passed, the night gradually faded, and just when the two were very sleepy, the roar of a burst of artillery suddenly sounded.

The third prince and the fourth prince stood up at the same time, and the third prince said, You and I each dispatched troops and horses to attack the palace.
