Chapter 547 If the Capital Is Not Safe, Where Else Can Be Safe?
"no!"
Ying Hongzhu thought for a moment and refused, "Those cannon fodders are cannon fodders to ensure our safety."
"With cannon fodder, whether it is killing or retreating, it will be much easier."
Chu Qing was silent for a moment and said: "Then, you arrange the cannon fodder."
"We'll kill him right here."
If you step into the city gate, eunuch Mao Shisan can lower his guard.
Then, when setting foot on the junction of the Fifth Ring Road and the Sixth Ring Road, the alertness is even lower.
No one dared to assassinate eunuchs openly in the imperial capital.
Never.
What's more, this eunuch is also a powerful warrior.
He even killed two Tongtian warriors.
and:
The Eight King Kongs beside him are also very ferocious and terrifying.
Together they can actually resist the attack of the Tongtian Warrior for a while.
so....
According to Ying Hongzhu's idea, he needs cannon fodder.
Cannon fodder holds back the Eight Great Vajras.
Chu Qing mixed in with the cannon fodder and secretly killed the Eight King Kongs.
The advantage of this is: safety.
However, the shortcomings are also obvious;
Delay time.
Killing the eunuch Mao Shisan and killing the Eight Great Vajras require speed.
The faster the speed, the safer it is.
"Although the cannon fodder can hold back the Eight Great Vajras, it only raises their alertness."
"Then use your master to sneak attack!"
"Ying Hongzhu has definitely used this method before."
"But, she failed."
"This causes the Eight King Kongs to be more vigilant when facing cannon fodder."
"Even more alert."
"It will actually be harder to kill them then."
"What I want to do is actually - take advantage of the fact that the Eight Great Vajra's alerts are not raised to kill people directly."
at this time:
There is not much time until Mao Shisan enters the imperial capital.
...
Outside the Imperial Capital:
A group of riders galloped.
They all have three horses per person. These horses, after taking the secret medicine, can easily travel three to five thousand miles a day when the road conditions are good.
tread! tread! tread!
Horse hooves flying.
The leader was a blue-robed eunuch - Mao Shisan.
Mao Shisan is not very old, he looks to be in his twenties.
He has a handsome appearance and does not have the feminine aura of eunuchs. Instead, he looks like a normal man.
Moreover, there is a bookish air about him.
If he were not wearing a blue eunuch robe, everyone would think that he is a scholar, not a eunuch.
Behind him are the eight vajra eunuchs.
They are said to be the Eight Great Vajras, but these eight people have ordinary figures and look nothing like Vajras.
However, the war horses beside them were carrying heavy weapons and armor such as war hammers and maces.
They traveled more than 100,000 miles and encountered many interceptions and interceptions along the way.
However, they fought their way back from the Great Zhou Empire.
Except for Mao Shisan, the Eight Great Vajra's murderous intent was so high that they did not hide it at all.
They stopped when they were still three hundred miles away from the imperial capital.
The eight kings wear heavy armor, change their war horses, and hold heavy hammers.
"Sir, we are almost arriving at the Imperial Capital."
Mao Shisan nodded.
He fed the war horse a handful of secret medicine, looked towards the direction of the imperial capital, and remained silent.
"Sir, we've already arrived in the imperial capital, why do we still need to wear a robe?"
Mao Shisan spoke with a gentle voice, like a gentleman.
"Some people don't want us to return to the imperial capital."
"Some people may even ambush us at the gate of the imperial capital."
In the Eight Great Vajras, someone whispered: "Impossible. Who dares to ambush the people of the Imperial Palace when they arrive at the gate of the Imperial Capital?"
Mao Shisan smiled and said: "The Emperor's star is swaying!"
"Those aristocratic families dare to think about how to give the main city to the rebels and strengthen the rebel army. What else can they not dare to do?"
"What's more, we are just little people in the Imperial Palace."
The Eight Great Vajras were silent.
What little person?
They are not little people.
They are also famous among the eunuchs of the imperial palace.
The status is extraordinary.
Otherwise, this time he would not go on an envoy to the Great Zhou Dynasty with a certain big shot.
Not to mention leading a team back to deliver things.
Swallow the secret medicine and rest for a while.
The Eight Great Vajras returned to form.
"Sir, if we encounter enemies at Qinglongmen, should we kill them? Or..."
Mao Shisan said calmly: "There is no need to kill the enemy, just rush into the city gate!"
You Jingang whispered: "What if they assassinate us in the imperial capital?"
Mao Shisan was stunned, then smiled and said: "When we set foot in the imperial capital, even the Zheng family who is in rebellion will not dare to ambush and assassinate us."
"And, if I remember correctly, the martial arts academy exam is about to begin."
"Their Tongtian masters are all preparing for the assessment, and they don't dare to distract themselves from dealing with me."
"Besides, even if you want to kill me, you have to find at least three Tongtian warriors."
"Three Tongtian warriors, they can't spare so many people."
"Moreover, even if there are three Tongtian warriors, they can't even think of killing me within two minutes."
"It's even unclear whether they can survive or not!"
The Eight Great Vajras nodded.
Others don't know how powerful Mao Shisan is, but they know it clearly.
Some time ago, three Tongtian warriors intercepted and killed them.
However, they relied on the military formation to hold back one.
And Mao Shisan, surrounded and killed by two Tongtian warriors, killed one and escaped.
The remaining one was eventually chased by Mao Shisan for three thousand miles and beaten to death.
so:
Mao Shisan had a lot of confidence.
What's more, if they set foot in the imperial capital and encounter danger, they will immediately send out a signal.
At that time, the masters of the imperial palace will be dispatched.
In just two minutes, they can kill from the imperial palace to the Qinglong Gate.
At that time, who will live and who will die will be clear at a glance.
Three hundred miles, ordinary people will take many days to walk.
But Mao Shisan and others galloped on horseback and arrived in just one hour.
The war horses neighed.
The gate of Qinglong Gate was closed.
On the towering city walls, only a few flames flickered.
The eight Vajra looked around vigilantly, they released their killing intent and frantically suppressed all enemies, whether they existed or not.
At this time, they all knew that now was the most dangerous time.
"The enemy will either appear now or appear when the city gate is opened!"
Some Vajra muttered in a low voice.
They looked around, like eagles and wolves ready to hunt prey.
Unfortunately....
The prey did not appear.
They sent out a signal, and a minute later, the city gate creaked open.
When the gate opened, four of the Eight Vajra stared at the gate, and four looked around in other directions to prevent assassination.
Click!
The gate opened.
No assassins.
No ambush.
The Eight Vajra breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Mao Shisan frowned.
"Did that group of people give up?"
"This is not their style!"
Mao Shisan became more cautious.
When they stepped into the gate and the gate creaked shut, the Eight Vajra breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Mao Shisan was still on guard.
"Go!"
Trample! Trample! Trample!
The horses' hooves flew, and the bluestone road made a crisp sound.
Mao Shisan said in a deep voice: "Don't relax until you get to the Imperial Palace."
The Eight Vajra nodded.
However, they didn't agree in their hearts.
After all, they had already set foot in the Imperial Capital.
If it was not safe to enter the Imperial Capital, then there would be no safe place in the world.
