Chapter 1267: Assassination of the King of Chu
After Chu Ba left the palace, he was suspended in the sky. He looked at the residential area and suspected that King Chu might be hiding in the densely populated urban area. Then he looked to the east. Hundreds of kilometers away to the east, his army was still there.
Well. But now it is impossible to determine whether the army is still there or not, and whether they have surrendered.
If we leave the city now to catch up with the army, it will take several hours and be full of uncertainties.
The more Chu Ba thought about it, the more desperate he became. Finally, he cried to himself: "Brother Chu, I was wrong. I really did something wrong. What should I do now? Where are you? Who can tell me? What should I do now?"
what to do?"
From the past to the present, Chu Ba has never experienced anything like this. No matter what battlefield he is on or what danger he faces, he is not afraid and has never shed tears.
But now, Chu Ba's heart was like a flood that burst a dam, pouring down thousands of miles, without any fighting spirit.
He is not facing any danger now, nor has he been harmed in any way, but he is suffering tremendous mental torture. He always feels that he is very anxious now and it is an urgent matter, but he does not know what to do and has no direction.
Chu Ba struggled painfully for more than ten minutes, and finally he flew towards the huge residential area.
As he flew, he shouted in the sky: "Brother, where are you? Brother, come out quickly."
Chu Ba's voice was broken and even a little crying. He was like a lost child now. Looking for King Chu had become his instinct. He really needed guidance now and someone to tell him what to do.
However, the urban area is dozens of kilometers long and wide, with dense high-rise buildings, and there is no Internet or radio. How to find people?
Chu Ba had no idea that King Chu and the others were hiding in the basement. Even if Chu Ba shouted from above, people underground might not be able to hear them.
This method of searching is even worse than finding a needle in a haystack.
However, although Chu Ba's cry could not find the King of Chu, it could arouse the response of many civilians.
When the civilians in the high-rise buildings saw Chu Ba flying, they all waved. Some people shouted: "It's General Chu, it's General Chu Ba."
"General Chu Ba is still there, and the King of Chu has not yet perished."
"General Chu, how is the Eastern Expedition Army? Why are you here?"
"General Chu, where is the King of Chu?"
People said "General Chu" in the east and "General Chu" in the west, which made Chu Ba annoyed to death.
Unable to bear it, Chu Ba collapsed and shouted: "I don't know, didn't you see that I am looking for the King of Chu? Can you help me find the King of Chu?"
Everyone suddenly became quiet. They felt that Chu Ba's mood was broken and he had no fighting spirit at all. Everyone hoped that Chu Ba and King Chu could regain their morale, but Chu Ba didn't even know where King Chu was.
Now Chu Ba is asking the civilians to help find people, but it is during the war. How can ordinary civilians dare to go out for activities rashly?
The Lieutenant Army has issued a notice asking civilians to stay at home, and the Lieutenant Army will never offend. But if anyone gathers to make trouble or demonstrate, they will be directly attacked with rocket launchers. Ordinary people have no armor and cannot withstand the bombing of thermal weapons.
The civilians became silent, and Chu Ba was so angry that he yelled: "You trash, can't you even find someone at the critical moment?"
Although what Chu Ba said was angry, it really hurt the hearts of the civilians, and many civilians quietly left the window. Although they are not great, small people have small people's thoughts, and the crisis is still
Self-preservation comes first.
Chu Ba continued to shout, kept shouting, and finally called several officers.
One has the rank of colonel and the other has the rank of captain. The two of them were originally officers of the palace guard. However, the thousands of palace guards were helpless against tens of thousands of fierce troops. In addition, the King of Chu and his superiors all
To protect themselves, they escaped without a trace, so the palace fell quickly. Most of the palace guards were captured, some officers surrendered directly, and some officers escaped from the palace.
The officers later learned that Liejun had no intention of harming Qiu in the city, so they all hid inside. Later, they heard Chu Ba shouting from high in the sky.
As soldiers who were escaping, they had no face to see Chu Ba, so they hesitated and didn't want to come out. But after an hour of conflict, they finally showed up. They didn't want Chu Ba to find Chu Chu alone.
People are so miserable.
So they showed up. Maybe their appearance can't speed up the search for King Chu, but together with Chu Ba, they can make more soldiers show up. When people gather together, they might be able to resist, even if they don't.
, it is more efficient to find people with more people.
After the two joined Chu Ba, they also shouted.
Not long after, several more people showed up to join.
Slowly, more and more people joined, not only in the sky, but also on the ground, there were many flightless non-commissioned officers and soldiers.
At first, the actions of Chu Ba and others did not attract the attention of Liejun. Because the city was too big, Liejun did not invest too many troops in the city. Liejun only dispatched more than 10,000 people and controlled the police stations in each district.
And the signal tower. The Liejun were very worried that the remnants of the Chu army would seize the signal tower, so they did not dare to allocate too many troops to patrol the city. They only sent dozens of ultra-small units to conduct divergent and random patrols in the city.
However, as Chu Ba's team grew in size and the commotion grew, one of Liejun's scouts finally discovered the whereabouts of Chu Ba and others.
The scout immediately set off for the nearest signal car, through which the message was quickly conveyed.
Because the number of signal cars was limited, Luo Erhu only got the news more than ten minutes later.
Luo Erhu and Rogni discussed it and summoned a prisoner urgently.
The prisoner's name was Ding Anguo. He was originally a spy. He had been hiding in Yecheng for many years and had become a senior officer in the palace. When Luo Erhu attacked the city, more than a thousand spy troops responded to Luo Erhu and created a conspiracy in the city.
There was a riot, but Ding Anguo not only did not participate, but also made excuses to disappear. It turned out that Ding Anguo had been embezzling and accepting bribes in Yecheng, and his life was extremely comfortable. He had long forgotten his identity as a spy, and therefore committed treason.
Later, the palace was captured. Seeing that the Chu army was exhausted, Ding Anguo temporarily defected and attacked a division captain of the palace guard, forcing his men to surrender.
Although Ding Anguo had temporarily established meritorious service, Luo Erhu hated this kind of villain the most, so he still arrested him.
But now, Luo Erhu needs him.
Luo Erhu called him into an armored vehicle and had a secret meeting with him.
"Ding Anguo, although you have made meritorious deeds before, these meritorious deeds are not enough to offset your sins. However, you have one more chance to make up for your faults. As long as you do it, you will not only be exempted from all sins, but also be remembered for a greater crime.
You will receive military merit points, and the property you accumulated in Yecheng will no longer be confiscated."
"Seriously?" Ding Anguo said excitedly.
"How can what I, Luo Erhu, say be false?"
"What do you want me to do?"
"Kill the King of Chu."
"What? How to kill this? I don't even know where King Chu is hiding?"
"Don't worry, King Chu will probably show up on his own initiative."
"Why is this?"
"Because Chu Ba is gathering the remnants of the Chu army and is frantically looking for people in the city. Their number has reached more than one hundred. These more than one hundred people have incited tens of thousands of civilians, and they have created a great advertising effect.
, just to let King Chu know that Chu Ba is looking for him. As their number increases, King Chu is likely to take the initiative to send people to contact Chu Ba. What I want you to do is to blend in with these people immediately, and wait for Chu Ba
After the king showed up, he looked for an opportunity to kill the king of Chu."
"This... this is too dangerous. It is simply impossible to kill King Chu in front of Chu Ba."
"I didn't say you will definitely succeed. I just asked you to do it and find an opportunity to execute it. If you can do it, you will be rewarded with high official positions, good salary, gold, silver, and wealth. But if you can't do it, there's nothing you can do about it."
"I understand, I understand, okay, no problem, I will definitely get things done." Ding Anguo said excitedly.
After that, Luo Erhu released Ding Anguo, who ran away like a wild horse that had escaped from stiffness, and then jumped into the sky and flew in the direction of Chu Ba and others.
After Ding Anguo left, Rogni walked out from behind the car.
Luo Erhu was a little worried: "I don't know if he can do it."
"Ding Anguo is a person who adapts to the changing circumstances, so he is naturally very good at gaining the trust of his superiors. He is the only one who has a chance. If he can't do it, no one can do it now."
"If King Chu does not die, what will happen in the end?"
"Then the situation may become similar to that in the capital of Zhao State. Neither King Zhao nor Zhao Yongheng died. They quietly gathered the remnants of the Zhao army and transformed themselves into underground resistance forces, trying to continue to fight against the fierce army. In the capital of the country, Ao Liehua
It has not been completely eliminated for several months.”
"Is it going to be this serious?"
"Of course, our situation will be much better. King Zhao was fighting and retreating at the same time. He was well prepared before the fierce army launched a general attack, leaving nearly 100,000 people in the capital. But King Chu didn't even guess that we were
The Flying Tiger Regiment will take a detour to attack Yecheng by surprise, so Yecheng itself has very few troops and is not fully prepared. They have not even dug underground tunnels. If they resist, they can only engage in sneak attacks and guerrilla warfare, and
The number of people should be very limited, and only a few thousand people can survive."
"But the leaders of these more than a thousand people are Chu King and Chu Ba."
"The King of Chu is nothing to worry about. The key lies with Chu Ba. But Chu Ba's weakness is the King of Chu. I hope Ding Anguo can successfully assassinate the King of Chu. Once the King of Chu dies, Chu Ba will inevitably collapse, and he may lead all the remnants to take risks.
They made a surprise attack and were finally captured by us."
"I hope Ding Anguo can succeed. In this way, the hidden dangers of Ye City will be completely clear. Only in this way can the eldest brother easily become the lord of Ye City."
"Are you really planning to let Jiang Ze be the city lord? Don't forget the military law of the Lie Kingdom. Whichever regiment captures a city, the city lord will belong to that regiment. If you become the city lord of Ye City, no one will object."
"Rogni, please stop talking. I'm tired of hearing these words these days. Others say, I can't help it, but you should understand me. Big brother is my god."
