Volume Five: The Case of the Five Kings Fighting the Dragon
Cambrian City, Prefect's Mansion, Cambrian City Prefect Rong Jing was listening to the report of the people below with a livid face.
"Master Taishou, what should we do next?" Yan Guo, the general guarding the city of Cambrian City, asked in a deep voice.
"Damn it, I thought they were princes and made concessions to them many times. I don't want to be enemies with them." Rong Jing said solemnly: "But, does King Guangsheng really treat me as a soft persimmon?"
"Send the order and close the city gates immediately! I want to see how a mere 50,000 soldiers can capture this Cambrian City!"
"Yes!" Yan Guo responded: "The soldiers who surrounded Zhenbao Pavilion..."
"Huh, it's just a thousand soldiers and horses. Yan Guo, you name three thousand soldiers and horses, and I will personally lead the team to destroy them!" Rong Jing said.
"As expected of Governor Rong, he is as strong as my father said!" As soon as Rong Jing finished speaking, a voice came from outside. Then the door was slowly pushed open, and Li Waner took Zhucui away.
Come in.
"Who are you? How dare you break into the prefect's mansion!" Rong Jing said coldly.
"I am Li Waner, the daughter of King Jing'an and the princess of Princess Mingzhu. I have met the Grand Administrator." Li Waner bowed to Rong Jing and said, "I came here this time because there is something important, so I came in without asking. I also invited the Grand Administrator."
Forgive me."
"The daughter of King Jing'an?" Rong Jing looked at Li Waner carefully, and then said in a deep voice: "What's the matter?"
"Sir, King Guangsheng holds his own troops and intends to rebel..." Li Waner said.
"I know, I'm about to lead the troops to conquer." Rong Jing said.
"No, please stand still and just hold the city gate!" Li Waner said.
"Ah?" Rong Jing was stunned and looked at Li Waner in confusion.
"Now King Guangsheng's army carries powerful crossbows and other large-scale weapons of destruction, and the vicinity of Zhenbao Pavilion is a downtown area. If a battle breaks out, it will inevitably cause the tragic death of a large number of innocent residents." Li Waner said: "So, if it is not necessary, try not to do it as much as possible.
Fight with him inside the city."
"This..." Rong Jing felt like he was being fooled by Li Waner.
What? If we don’t fight with him, why should he be allowed to rebel?
"Wan'er hopes that Prefect Rong can send someone to Luo County to inform my father, King Jing'an. Then my father will definitely come with troops." Li Waner said: "By then, the army outside the city will be defeated, and King Guangsheng will
The morale of the army will definitely be in chaos, and it will be easy to deal with them again."
"This... is not an idea at all." Rong Jing looked at Li Waner. He always felt that there seemed to be something wrong with this. Was the statement he just made too simple?
You know, the people from Mingjing Division and the other four princes are trapped in the Zhenbao Pavilion at the moment. Can they really wait until King Jing'an arrives with his troops?
While Li Waner was discussing with Rong Jing, King Guangsheng was already ready.
Rockets were fired at the Zhenbao Pavilion, and the raging fire instantly set the Zhenbao Pavilion on fire.
Looking at the Zhenbao Pavilion that was caught in a raging fire, King Guangsheng frowned even more.
He originally thought that the four princes would never be captured without mercy, but why haven't they rushed out until now?
Suddenly, King Guangsheng thought of a possibility. Could it be that there was a secret passage in the Treasure Pavilion? The four princes had already escaped from the secret passage?
Thinking of this, King Guangsheng was immediately shocked. Once the four princes really escaped, the situation would be reversed in an instant.
After all, his large army is still outside the city. With the army inside the city alone, he still can't defeat one against five!
So King Guangcheng hurriedly called Yun He: "Quick, don't worry about the search in the city for now. Lead the troops to put out the fire and rush into the Zhenbao Pavilion. There must be a secret passage in the Zhenbao Pavilion."
"Yes!" Yun He nodded. He had already guessed this when he saw the fire burning but no movement in the pavilion.
So, Yunhe hurriedly mobilized his troops and rushed towards Zhenbao Pavilion.
Fortunately, the exterior of Zhenbao Pavilion is made of fireproof materials, so the fire was not too big.
Soon, the flames were extinguished, and Yunhe hurriedly led people in.
However, just when Yunhe and his men had just rushed into the Zhenbao Pavilion, the second-floor window of the Zhenbao Pavilion was suddenly pushed open, and then a group of figures jumped from the second-floor windows and launched directly at Yunhe and others.
attack.
Yunhe and others were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.
Only then did Yunhe realize that both he and King Guangsheng had fallen into the trap.
In fact, it was indeed the case. Duan Ming and others were not sure whether there was a secret passage in the Treasure Pavilion. When the flames just started to burn, Prince Shunjing and other princes also planned to rush out directly.
But Duan Ming stopped the thoughts of several princes.
"King Guangsheng outside has been waiting in full formation, and he still has a strong bow and crossbow in his hand. If we forcefully rush out, we will probably suffer heavy losses." Duan Ming said: "Therefore, why don't we take advantage of it?"
"What do you mean?" King Longchang asked doubtfully.
"Look, the opponent is launching rockets, and we still have such strong strength. According to common sense, we must rush out and fight for the chance of survival. We will definitely not surrender and let ourselves be burned alive." Duan Ming said:
"But we didn't go out. If you were King Guangsheng, what would you think?"
"If I were King Guangsheng, I would definitely think that there is a secret passage in this Treasure Pavilion!" King Jubei said in a deep voice.
"That's right." Duan Ming nodded: "But King Guangsheng doesn't know if there is a secret passage here, so he needs to face a choice."
"The first option is to immediately let your general lead the team and search the whole city. But in this way, the defense here will inevitably be weakened. If we don't leave, then King Guangsheng will be in danger."
"The second option is to immediately ask your soldiers to put out the fire, then rush into the Treasure Pavilion and find the secret passage."
"He has no choice." King Jubei suddenly said: "If the fire is allowed to burn out or burn to the point where we are certain to die, then time will drag on for too long. Once we successfully escape, the troops will be dispatched from
If we try to outflank him from behind, King Guangsheng will definitely be defeated."
"The first method I tell you is undoubtedly to disperse King Guangsheng's army. In that case, if we really encounter us, there is no possibility other than being wiped out."
"So, King Guangsheng must choose the second method when he is not sure whether we are in Zhenbao Pavilion."
"Only in this way will King Guangsheng's power not be dispersed."
"That's right." Duan Ming nodded: "Based on the previous situation, King Guangsheng seeks stability. In order to reduce the possibility of being suspected, he even arranges for people to attack him. Therefore, in King Guangsheng's heart, he must take
The second type.”
"In this way, we directly take the initiative! We just need to wait for work, and we will definitely be able to kill King Guangsheng by surprise!"
