"You said there is a secret passage leading to Yuling City?" Narses stared at Qiaolu with wide eyes, "I have been to Lianyucheng more than a hundred times, how come I have never heard of a secret passage?"
"Because you are not qualified." For a fool like Narses, Qiaolu didn't want to say another word to him. "Lianyucheng is a typical acropolis. When building this city, secret passages will be left behind.
"
Alice looked cold and asked righteously: "What is the Acropolis?"
Qiaolu didn't want to talk anymore. He felt like a university professor giving tutoring lessons to elementary school students.
"The Acropolis is the guard of the Royal Capital. Your guards will stand at your door, and the Acropolis will naturally stand at the door of the Royal Capital."
"How do you know that Lianyucheng is a guard?" Nar said unconvinced, "There are three cities around the royal capital. Are they all guards?"
"I have never been to other cities, but Lianyucheng is very special. It has tall walls and a deep moat. Its defensive capabilities are stronger than the capital. It is like a warrior wearing armor and holding weapons.
The city is undoubtedly the guard of the royal capital."
Ya Lishan said: "But if it is occupied by the enemy, wouldn't it put the royal capital in danger?"
Although I hate Ya Li Shan, I have to admit that this woman is not only beautiful, but also very smart.
"If your guards are bribed by the enemy, you will naturally be in danger, so you must have the means to control the guards, so as to ensure the loyalty of the guards at the moment of life and death," Qiao Lu pointed to Lianyucheng on the sand table and said slowly
, "All guard cities have secret passages, but very few people know this secret passage. If we can find this secret passage, we can sneak into the city and directly kill Chris."
Qiaolu's speculation was too mysterious, and both Naal and Yalishan were a little skeptical.
But Alice thought it made sense: "I think our emperor must know the entrance to that secret passage."
"That's not necessarily true," Jolu shook his head. "If His Majesty Charlemagne knew the location of the secret passage, he would definitely tell us before attacking the city, unless he didn't want to win the war."
Alexa and Alice looked at each other, maybe Charlemagne really concealed something from them.
Nar didn't know what was going on and was still arguing with Qiaolu: "If even the king doesn't know where the secret passage is, it proves that this secret passage does not exist at all!"
Qiaolu sneered and said: "There were some changes in your country during the handover of the throne. Maybe the old king had no chance to tell His Majesty Charlemagne some things."
The handover of the throne was a taboo of Charlemagne, and no one dared to mention it easily. The angry Nar was about to give Qiaolu some warning, but Alice stood up and said to everyone: "The meeting is over. The two generals go back.
Rest."
She took Arisian to Charlemagne's camp. Charlemagne was still wearing the armor that Arisian had given him, lying silently on the bed.
Alice squatted next to Charlemagne, gently stroked his cheek, and whispered: "Supreme Emperor, you have suffered in the past two days. Everything we have done is for you and your empire. I hope you will
You can understand our painstaking efforts and loyalty."
Alice lifted part of the witchcraft, and Charlemagne's head and neck were free. He slowly turned his face and looked at Alice quietly, his murderous eyes making people shudder.
Alice took a step back. Although she knew Charlemagne couldn't move, she still felt a little scared.
"Supreme Emperor, we need your help. You have also seen that our casualties today are very heavy. We don't want the soldiers to die in vain under Lianyucheng. We know that there is a secret passage that can enter Lianyucheng. Please
Tell us the entrance to the secret passage, and let us rush into the city and chop off the heads of the traitors."
Charlemagne shook his head and said: "I don't know what you are talking about. I have never heard of any secret passage."
Alice looked at Charlemagne with a disappointed look on her face: "I know you hate me, but who am I doing everything for? Don't you no longer cherish the lives of soldiers? Don't you want to take back the land of the empire? Don't you want to
Kill that shameless traitor?"
Charlemagne said calmly: "I desire victory more than anyone else. I have never held a grudge against you. It was you who misunderstood me. It was you who mistook your temporary anger for resentment. If you are willing to return to my arms, I will still
I will cherish you, pamper you, and trust you as before. Tell me, are you willing?"
If a king could say these words, if it were an innocent girl, he would have already flown into the sky.
But Alice is not that innocent. She is very clear about her relationship with Charlemagne. That relationship is very pure, only mutual use, and does not contain any impurities.
"Tell me where the secret passage is, and I will return to your arms immediately."
"There is no secret passage. Lianyucheng was once my fiefdom, and I know it well."
"Don't try my patience again, Your Majesty."
"I'm not lying to you, I also want to chop off Chris' head."
"The night wind is very cold, your clothes are too loose," Alice gritted her teeth and said to Alice, "Wrap your armor tighter!"
Yalishan lightly clenched her fist, and her armor immediately tightened in a circle.
Charlemagne's face turned red and his body was shaking violently.
"Tighter!"
Alexa tightened her armor again, Charlemagne's body began to twist, and there was a faint sound of broken bones.
"Tighter!"
Alexa withdrew her witchcraft, and Charlemagne breathed heavily.
"I told you to be tighter," Alice looked at Yalishan ferociously, "Don't you understand me?"
Yalisan whispered: "Do you want to kill him, or do you want to find out the location of the secret passage?"
Alice took two deep breaths and tried to calm herself down.
Unfortunately, she didn't do it. She pulled out the dagger and rushed directly towards Charlemagne. If Alice hadn't put a visor on Charlemagne, Alice would have immediately gouged out his eyes.
"Tell me! Where is the secret passage!"
"There is no secret passage..."
"Do it again!"
The torture cycle was repeated three times, and Charlemagne fell into a coma. Alice fed him some medicinal ingredients and turned to Alice: "If you still want him to appear on the battlefield, this is the end of the night."
Alice murmured to herself: "Maybe he really doesn't know, maybe the old king really didn't tell him, who else could it be besides him?"
An hour later, Alice opened Spindu's tent and said with a smile: "Prime Minister, I have something to ask you."
…
Late at night, Alice came to Qiaolu's camp. The guards blocked her from the door. Yalishan moved her wrist and whispered: "Do you want to teach them a lesson?"
"It's not possible now," Alice showed amazing rationality in front of the White Tower people, "We'll just wait here and let the general sleep for a while."
They waited for a full two hours, and a sleepy Qiaolu walked to the gate of the camp.
"Sleep is a gift given by the gods to mortals. Do you want to take it away from me?" Qiaolu kept staring at Alice. He felt that even one more look at Alice could be fatal.
"I have good news to tell you. We have found the entrance to the secret passage." Yalishan deliberately got very close. She liked to see the general escaping.
Qiao Lu took a step back and said, "So, we will be able to break through Lianyucheng soon."
"Not soon, tomorrow," Alice said, "Tell your people to get ready and we'll set off at dawn."
