A group of imperial guards, including Ouchi guards and Yao Wei, all looked at Su Lu nervously.
Changluocang is a large warehouse on the outskirts of Beijing, and there are many warehouse soldiers. If someone really takes the risk, it is not impossible to surround and kill Su Lu with the warehouse soldiers.
Yao Wei also stopped Su Lu:
"Your Majesty, I came from a post office in Xiaguan. I know that these bastards are really evil and can do all kinds of crazy things. If they dare to burn down the warehouse, they will dare to kill you."
Su Lu patted Yao Wei on the shoulder and asked Xiao Liu:
"How can you, the mighty captain of the Imperial Guard Battalion, not even protect me?"
Xiaoliu looked confused when he heard this, saying that he couldn't protect the prince, and that he was slapping himself in the face.
He said that he could protect the prince, and the prince was going to Changpingcang. If something happened in Changpingcang, it would be a small matter if he died, but it would be a big deal if the prince died.
"It may not be possible to protect it."
Wang Xiaoliu held it in for a long time and stammered.
Su Lu shook his head and asked the remaining three fire guards:
"There are more than thirty of you, can't you even protect me? His Majesty has said that you are the strongest soldiers in the world and no longer need training. At the foot of the capital, can't even a Changpingcang soldier stop you?
."
A group of imperial guards came forward with enthusiasm and immediately began to howl.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will take care of you."
"If we risk our lives, we won't let those gangsters hurt the prince even half a hair."
"Your Majesty, just go and we will escort you."
In the blink of an eye, a group of guards moved forward.
With a wry smile on his face, Xiao Liu said goodbye to Yao Wei, and urged his horse to catch up. In his heart, he scolded his gang of guys for being so impulsive and fooling around.
Now that he had decided to go to Chang Pingcang, Xiao Liu did not dare to neglect, and ordered the guards who were opening the way to inquire about the situation first, and try to catch up with the ambushed Dingxiang guards or the rebels.
After arranging defenses four or five times, Xiaoliu could already see the wall of Chang Ping Cang from a distance before he was still unsure.
Changpingcang, which is made of green bricks and gray tiles and occupies a large area, is like a beast that dominates the pass, standing in the fields and looking at everyone who passes by.
There are several sentry turrets at each of the four corners of the courtyard wall, and warehouse soldiers with guns stand on the turrets to patrol.
Before anyone could get close, there were shouts from the turret.
"In this important land of granaries, visitors should be stopped."
The creaking sound of bow strings was heard from the turret, and two big boxwood bows were stretched out, with arrows shining with dark luster, pointing at Su Lu and his party.
Xiaoliu waved his hand, and more than a dozen guards immediately surrounded Su Lu. They were layer upon layer, and the guards protected Su Lu.
Xiao Liu clapped his horse and stepped forward, scolding:
"I've blinded you. Wang Xiaoliu, the captain of the Royal Guards Camp, came to patrol the warehouse on the king's order. Are you planning to rebel with your bow and arrows?"
The boxwood bow on the turret immediately retracted, and the sound of quarreling resounded in the turret.
After a while, the quarrel stopped, and the two big boxwood bows came out again, pointing at Wang Xiaoliu.
A rough voice sounded from the turret:
"I don't care whether you are appointed by the Imperial Guard or the King. If you don't have a document from the Ministry of Household Affairs, I won't recognize it. Get out of here, otherwise my three-stone bow will not be a vegetarian."
The creaking sound of the bowstring being pulled sounded again, and the flashing arrows pointed at the guards and the group again.
Xiao Liu came back and said with an ugly face:
"There's something wrong in Changpingcang. Your Majesty, let's go back, recruit a large army, and then destroy them."
Su Lu looked at the gate of Chang Ping Cang in the distance. There were no fireworks coming out yet, which meant that it was not yet time to burn down the warehouse. But now that it was here, Chang Ping Cang must be entered.
"Announce my name and say I want to enter the warehouse."
Xiaoliu rode over again and said loudly:
"Your Majesty is driving here. He wants to see your transshipment envoy from Changpingcang. Please order him to come and see you as soon as possible."
Huang Yang's big bow immediately retracted. It was one thing to intimidate the imperial guard camp, but it was another thing to challenge the prince. Although a group of guards accepted the order of the transfer envoy, they did not dare to face the prince.
of.
More intense quarrels were heard in the turret, and at the same time, the sound of fighting was loud, and there seemed to be fighting in the turret.
Su Lu squinted at the turret. There was indeed something wrong with Chang Pingcang.
"Come in, I want to see how brave this transporter is, how dare he confront me, Su Lu."
Xiaoliu drew out his sword, waved his arms, and galloped towards the gate.
At the same time, the two guards raised their bows and arrows, aiming at the turret. As soon as a big bow appeared again, they immediately shot the archer.
The door of Chang Ping Cang was so strong and tight that Xiao Liu Dao, who rushed over, chopped the wooden board and failed to open the door of Chang Ping Cang.
There were sounds of scolding and cursing inside the gate, footsteps rumbling, the gate of Changpingcang was opened, and teams of warehouse soldiers holding long guns lined up in neat lines and left the warehouse.
Because this time he was checking how much grain was stored in the warehouse, Huo Guang suddenly became confused.
It has become a common practice for major granaries to embezzle and sell off large warehouses. Huo Guang did not want to be corrupt at first, but after a few times, he learned the taste of food and became addicted.
Over time, Huo Guang's appetite grew bigger and bigger. It wasn't until the first large treasury was completely embezzled that Huo Guang realized the seriousness of the problem.
Those who embezzle food will be punished by beheading. What happened in Xicheng Daku is a lesson learned from the past.
After some discussion with the two deputy envoys, Huo Guang simply decided to burn the warehouse without doing anything else.
As long as the warehouse is burned, the lack of food may be covered up.
Done.
If you don't burn it, you will die. If you burn it, you may not die. Anyone can think of what to do.
The soldiers were gathered in the warehouse, and firewood and sticks were prepared in several large warehouses. When they were preparing to start a fire, the deputy envoy Geng Jingming suddenly made a suggestion.
"We only stole three warehouses. If this fire continues, at least eight warehouses will be burned down. It is better to retain some more."
After everyone thought about it, they simply continued to carry the food out. While they were carrying it, Su Lu arrived.
Looking at Su Lu, Huo Guang's courage trembled.
This is the prince, the number one in the Han army, the invincible military god. The last time the Daku in the west of Beijing was massacred, it was the prince who gave the order.
This is so scary.
Although he was surrounded by a group of warehouse soldiers, Huo Guang felt that the prince's eyes were already staring directly at him.
It's over.
Geng Jingming beside him lowered his voice and said:
"You will die today, my lord."
"It's better to rebel against him. There are many of us. As long as we kill Su Lu, the Han Dynasty will be destroyed."
"The Han Dynasty has fallen. We have soldiers and food. It is not an exaggeration to make a prince yourself."
Huo Guang's eyes lit up when he heard this. Yes, if he kills the prince, he can become the prince himself.
One, two, three...thirty-one.
Huo Guang's eyes brightened even more. There were only thirty-one people. The prince really looked down on his own soldiers. Only thirty people came.
"Kill the prince, and this granary will belong to the brothers."
Huo Guang pulled out his waist knife and shouted in a stern voice:
"Whether you live or die, it all depends on what happens today. If you kill the prince, we will start an attack and destroy Yanjing City. Brothers are all high officials."
At the gate, Su Lu looked at Chang Ping Cang Cang Bing's sudden change of situation and was a little confused for a moment.
