(I am very grateful to several old brothers for their monthly support and reward encouragement.)
Facts have proved that Cheng Yaojin's guess and Shen Guang's caution were both correct - halfway through the journey, a spy from the Military Intelligence Agency returned in a hurry without dismounting, and clasped his fists at Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang on their horses. He said loudly: "I would like to report to you two adults, we found a cavalry group in front of us, numbering about five hundred, and were preparing to ambush us in the canyon five miles ahead."
"Brother Cheng, as expected, someone intercepted us, but I don't know if it was Li Shimin's people or Xiao Qiang's people!" The enemy's strength was five times that of his own, which did not frighten Shen Guang at all.
Cheng Yaojin's eyes showed a fierce look and said: "Since the enemy is preparing to ambush us in the steep canyon ahead, then we will split into two groups later, and I will lead fifty people over the mountains and ridges to get behind the enemy army. When the enemy attacks the convoy in the canyon, Mr. Shen only needs to lead his men to hold on for a while. When the enemy relaxes their vigilance, I will lead my men to rush out from behind the enemy. Being caught off guard, the enemy's formation will be disrupted. Even if we are the prey, we can easily kill them all."
Shen Guang thought for a while and said: "Brother Cheng's plan is very clever, but if we defeat the enemy with this method of warfare, our army will still suffer some casualties after the war. I have a supplement, but we will almost have no casualties."
"Oh! Please correct me, Mr. Shen." Cheng Yaojin was a little surprised, but also a little disapproving. Shen Guang was highly skilled in martial arts and had been in charge of some forces in the Blue Guards and the Military Intelligence Bureau. It seemed that he had never led troops in a war.
What kind of city Cheng Yaojin was, what he was thinking in his mind was not reflected in his expression at all, Shen Guang continued: "These fifty civilians are dressed up by the elite soldiers of your Wagang camp. Although their strength is not as good as that of the special forces, But they are also skilled with bows and horses, making them real elite soldiers. They can make them panic first and hide behind the chariots and horses. When the enemy relaxes their vigilance and approaches the chariots and horses, they can attack and kill the enemy. They will definitely be able to catch the enemy by surprise. , at this time, Brother Cheng will lead another fifty special force experts to suddenly come out from behind. The enemy will definitely panic because they have fallen into the trap, and if the morale of the army is in chaos, they can be hunted by us."
Cheng Yaojin nodded slightly and couldn't help but praise: "I admire Master Shen's clever plan. In this way, we may be able to kill all the enemies without losing one person."
…
…
There are many canyons in the Siman Mountains, so Shen Guang is not worried that Cheng Yaojin and his fifty people will have no place to hide.
The military flag is fluttering in the biting mountain wind, and Shen Guang is riding a war horse. At this time, he is relaxed on the surface but secretly vigilant in his heart.
At a certain moment, there was thunderous sound of hooves, and two teams of cavalry rushed out from the ravines on the left and right in front, galloping towards the team with the mountain wind.
Shen Guang and his team suddenly pretended to be in a panic, but in fact, according to the procedures that Shen Guang had explained and practiced before, everyone moved nervously and orderly.
These five hundred enemies were all dressed in gray wolf skin robes and wolf skin helmets. They had fierce faces, steel knives tightly held in their hands, and their horses were very fast.
Shen Guang pretended to be flustered and scolded everyone. He relied on ten mule carts and quickly set up a three-ring formation. Fifty special force masters guarded the outside of the formation, and fifty civilians dressed as elite soldiers from the Wagang Camp squatted inside. After the mule cart, I was trembling.
Five hundred enemies galloped like arrows, the steel swords in their hands raised high, shining with a bloodthirsty cold light in the biting mountain wind, like a whirlwind sweeping through a wave of yellow dust.
Two hundred steps!
One hundred steps!
Seventy steps!
"Prepare!"
"shoot!"
Shen Guang shouted loudly, and the crossbow arrow in his hand came out from the string, and accurately shot into the chest of an enemy. The enemy screamed and fell off his horse.
The crossbows in the hands of the fifty special forces masters were also fired, and dozens of enemy cavalry screamed and fell off their horses. However, the pace and speed of the enemy cavalry's advance were hardly affected. This is one of the characteristics of elite soldiers.
The enemy's riding skills were superb and their speed was fast. Shen Guang and his fifty special force masters only had time to shoot two arrows. The fifty civilians dressed as elite soldiers pretended to be panicked but did not shoot out. Instead, they were so frightened that they retreated behind the vehicle formation. .
When they were ten steps away from the car formation, many enemies had already begun to grin. As long as they rushed closer, there would be no suspense in this ambush battle. After all, there were five hundred of them, and they were all elite soldiers.
However, in the flash of lightning, the fifty civilians who had been hiding behind the mule cart and shivering suddenly stood up. The panic in their expressions had long been replaced by a look of murderous intent. The rapid-fire crossbows that had been prepared for a long time in each person's hands were fired at the first Time shoots out.
At such a short distance, the enemy was caught off guard. The fifty fast crossbows fired one after another, and none of the crossbows missed, either on the horses or the people. Amidst the screams, coupled with the crossbows of the fifty special forces masters who retreated behind the car, the enemy was caught off guard. , nearly a hundred enemies rushing at the front fell off their horses on the spot.
One-fifth of the men were killed instantly, and the remaining enemies were shocked. Before they could think about it, the thunderous sound of horse hooves came from behind them.
The expressions of all the enemies who were still alive changed. The words "Fell into a trap" appeared in the minds of every enemy involuntarily. As Cheng Yaojin deduced, the morale of the army was in chaos and the will to fight was lost. A small number of enemies even I had already started thinking about how to escape, but I was in a canyon and had nowhere to escape.
The enemy was attacked on both sides. The general who led the team saw that the fifty Wagang camp elite soldiers dressed as civilian husbands in front of them were powerful with crossbows and arrows. He ordered half of them to grit their teeth and continue to rush towards the car formation, while the other half hurriedly turned their horses to face Cheng Yao. Fifty special forces experts led by Jin.
Blocked by the vehicle formation, the enemy could not rush over for a while. Most of the enemies who rushed towards Shen Guang and others were shot to death. Even if a few capable people climbed over the vehicle formation, they were easily surrounded and killed by the masters of the fifty special forces.
Cheng Yaojin led fifty special forces masters on horseback and divided them into two waves. He gave full play to the mobility of the cavalry and the strong strength of the special force masters. Using the speed of the rush, the first wave of cavalry used him as an arrow to attack and penetrate. During the cutting battle, half of the enemy's horses who turned around hurriedly had not yet completely turned around, but Cheng Yaojin and his men drove right through them, killing the enemy and turning them upside down.
Immediately afterwards, the second wave of cavalry attacks followed.
Before the enemy could recover, Cheng Yaojin had already led his men in a circle, and the second round of killing began again.
In this way, after several killings, and with Shen Guang and his men firing cold arrows aside, the enemy was reduced to minced meat, leaving most of their bodies behind and began to flee.
In this way, it is easier to become the hunting target of Cheng Yaojin and his party. There are not many directions in the canyon here to escape. You will definitely not be able to run along the canyon. You will definitely be overtaken. There are enemies who want to escape from the ravine next to it. He ran away, only to find that Shen Guang had already led people to block the nearest ravines on both sides.
…
…
There was no suspense about the outcome of this ambush and counter-ambush. Less than half an hour later, the battle was over. Cheng Yaojin looked at the 495 enemy corpses and the five prisoners deliberately left behind, and commanded with a sinister smile: "General." Bring those five enemies here and I will interrogate them personally."
Cheng Yaojin acted extremely ruthlessly at this time. Without asking a word, two prisoners were ordered to be killed because of his harsh words. The third prisoner had an arm cut off by Cheng Yaojin himself.
It's just that these prisoners knew they would die and had very hard bones. Although Cheng Yaojin understood the flaws in people's hearts, he was obviously not proficient in extorting confessions. He only threatened them by chopping off their hands and feet until they were killed. He failed to kill them both. Ask for any useful information from the prisoners.
Seeing that the third person was still acting like this, Cheng Yaojin became angry and chopped off his head with a knife.
Seeing that this was not possible, Shen Guang also hoped to find out from the prisoners who the enemy was and how many people there were in Ximan Mountain City, so he quickly stopped him and said: "General Cheng, our Military Intelligence Bureau is good at this kind of thing, why don't you let me try. "
Only then did Cheng Yaojin remember that he was too impatient. The chief spy of the Military Intelligence Agency was here, so why should he be so idle?
He wiped the blood on the knife casually on the fourth prisoner's body. After sheathing it, he cupped his hands with a grin and said, "I forgot that Mr. Shen is an expert in this field."
At this time, Shen Guang thought of several horrific punishments commonly used by the Military Intelligence Bureau, such as the torture of "grooming", which involves pouring boiling water on the prisoner's body, and then brushing it with a wire brush until the prisoner's flesh and blood are reduced. Blurred until the bones are exposed.
There is also a kind of punishment called "wearing hemp and wearing filial piety", which is to beat the prisoner's body with a whip, and then put the hemp tendons on the prisoner's body. After the blood has dried, the prisoner will be torn off one by one.
Most of these tortures are extremely cruel, and the most important thing is that they require props and are very troublesome to operate. Shen Guang decided to try a torture that was passed down casually when the prince was the commander of the Blue Guard in the Sui Dynasty.
This kind of torture is very mild, but the mental torture can be called the ultimate form of torture - waterboarding.
Waterboarding is very special compared to other tortures. It can make the tortured person feel extreme pain without causing too much damage to the body.
Moreover, the props for waterboarding are very simple, and Shen Guang ordered people to prepare them quickly.
Cheng Yaojin watched two soldiers, under Shen Guang's correction, tie a prisoner to an empty mule cart and fix his limbs, body and head, and his heart was full of doubts.
Especially when Shen Guang covered the prisoner's face with a piece of cloth and prepared to pour water on it with a kettle, Cheng Yaojin suddenly looked stunned and couldn't help but said: "Brother Shen, is this method of extorting a confession? It’s too gentle and a little too simple.”
Shen Guang looked incomprehensible and said with a smile: "Brother Cheng, don't worry, this method was taught to me by the prince. At that time, the prince also said that the simpler things are, the better the effect is."
As he spoke, he personally found a stone to raise the prisoner's feet until it was higher than the prisoner's head.
When Cheng Yaojin heard that this seemingly gentle torture was actually taught by Wang Junlin, he was immediately filled with curiosity. As Wang Junlin created miracles one after another, he became a legend, and many stories about him were almost forgotten. Deified.
"Okay, now you can pour water on his face without pausing until the enemy begs for mercy and tells everything."
The two special forces masters followed Shen Guang's instructions.
As the waterboarding continued, the suspicion on Cheng Yaojin's face turned into a look of surprise, even horror.
………
………
After half a stick of incense, the prisoner succumbed and Cheng Yaojin negotiated terms with him. Finally, the prisoner told everything he knew in exchange for Cheng Yaojin ordering him to be killed directly because of his hands and feet. Being immobilized makes it difficult to commit suicide.
That's what the saying goes, life is worse than death.
As for biting one's tongue and committing suicide, that is pure nonsense among some people. Therefore, this enemy is unable to survive or die.
"Your Majesty is really a scholar. He even knows this... unique and useful torture." Cheng Yaojin said sincerely, his expression full of admiration.
"Your Majesty has always been a god-like existence to us and other members of the Far East Army," Shen Guang nodded and said, "Okay, now that we know that Li Shimin sent Duan Zhixuan as an envoy to persuade King Ximan to send troops, without further delay, we must go as soon as possible. Siman Mountain City."
Cheng Yaojin looked solemn and said: "What Mr. Shen said is absolutely true. Let's set off now."
…
…
Siman Mountain City.
Duan Zhixuan was sitting in the living room of Prince Man's Mansion in Siman Mountain City, secretly thinking that the Far Eastern Army's envoy had probably been blocked by our own cavalry. After all, the intelligence sent by Xizuo clearly stated that the Far Eastern Army's envoy only had one hundred guards. He sent five hundred elite cavalry over there, even if he didn't kill the Song envoy, they should have been able to stop him.
Just as Shen Guang said, the barbarian king Si Geduo showed great respect for Duan Zhixuan. Not only did he offer him good wine and meat, but he also selected the most beautiful women for him to enjoy, but he did not relent and immediately loaned him troops.
However, Duan Zhixuan is not in a hurry. He thinks that he still has a trump card that is useless, but the price of this trump card is a bit high. For some reasons, he does not want to use this trump card. Wouldn't it be better if King Siman can send troops without using trump cards.
With this purpose in mind, Duan Zhixuan planned to deal with Si Geduo for another two days and continue to make wishes to him according to Li Shimin's instructions.
It's just that Si Gordo has a big appetite and is shameless enough. He secretly colluded with the Far East Army and accepted the official position of their Li family without changing his face. However, even so, he still refused to let go of the borrowing of troops and sent another He gave Duan Zhixuan a pair of twin beautiful girls from the clan for Duan Zhixuan to enjoy, making him unable to intimidate him for a while.
Si Geduo sat across from him with a smile on his face, chatting nonsense with Duan Zhixuan and drinking wine. He thought to himself that our Si barbarians have fifty thousand warriors, and all of them are tigers and wolves. If they were placed in the Sui Dynasty before , there is no such thing as a good thing where both sides take it all now, but this opportunity cannot be missed.
A confidant walked in hurriedly and said something in Si Gordo's ear. Si Gordo's expression was condensed, but he quickly returned to normal. He held up the wine glass to Duan Zhixuan and said, "General Duan, enjoy it first. There is something going on in our clan." Go deal with it."
"You're welcome, Barbarian King." Si Geduo picked up the wine glass and said casually. The subtle change in Si Geduo's expression just now did not escape Duan Zhixuan's eyes, but he didn't think much about it. The Barbarian King of the Si Man tribe is Si Geduo, but he also One younger brother was not convinced, and the latter also had many supporters in the clan.
But after Si Godot left, a subordinate came in and reported to Duan Zhixuan in a low voice: "General, the envoy of the Far Eastern Army has arrived outside Siman Mountain City."
Duan Zhixuan's face changed slightly, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Damn it, the information I found before said that there are only a hundred or so of them, even if we sent 500 elite cavalry and they didn't stop them, why don't they all die and not one of them escape? Come back and report."
…
…
The mountain road Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang took was generally in the shape of a zigzag, crossing the Siman Mountains along a small river. The Siman Mountain City is located deep in the Hengshan Mountains, and its location is extremely steep.
Cheng Yaojin and his party arrived in front of Siman Mountain City near the end of the night.
Riding on his horse and standing on the mountain road, Cheng Yaojin looked at the mountain city two hundred steps away, which was only five or six hundred steps deep, and said to Shen Guang next to him: "This mountain city stands between the mountains, and the fortress stands on the east side of the small river. The wall stretches along the river bank in the west and the mountain wall in the east, blocking the must-go places for this mountain road. There is only a steep slope nearly a hundred paces long and less than a foot wide leading to the main entrance of the mountain city. Under normal circumstances, there are not ten times the number of troops. , and it is impossible to capture it without paying a small price. No wonder all dynasties have tolerated the continuous growth of the Xi barbarians for so many years."
Shen Guang raised his head and glanced for a few times, expressing his deep agreement, and nodded: "What Brother Cheng said is absolutely true, but if our Far Eastern Army is willing to pay a certain price, it will not be difficult to capture the Siman Mountain City."
…
The wall of the mountain city was high, and looking up, the situation inside could not be seen. Cheng Yaojin looked around the mountain city and found that there was a valley basin not far from the mountain city, with about 40,000 to 50,000 acres of paddy fields and dry land. He thought that these barbarians In fact, they have learned to grow crops from the Han people, but their level of farming seems to be far behind that of the Han people.
Before the Great Sui Dynasty was destroyed, the Si Barbarians were actually nominally part of the Great Sui Dynasty, and because the King of the Si Barbarians once went to Luoyang to pay homage to Yang Guang, the previous Sui Dynasties had always treated the Si Barbarians in terms of salt, iron, fine wine, silk and other materials. It’s considered generous, at least there are no restrictions on transactions.
In the late Sui Dynasty, when they lost control of the Sichuan and Sichuan lands, the Yi barbarians no longer regarded the Sui Dynasty as their suzerain state. The Far East Army, Li Yuan Group, and Xiao Qiang from the south all gave the Yi barbarians some benefits for their own purposes, but to be honest, they gave the Yi barbarians some benefits. The biggest benefit to the barbarians is the Far Eastern Army represented by the Fanyang Chamber of Commerce. From the most basic daily necessities, to production materials, to weapons and equipment, and even the training of craftsmen, etc., they have all given great benefits to the barbarians.
In addition, the Far Eastern Army was now at its peak, and there were legendary figures like Wang Junlin behind it, so the Barbarian King Si Geduo did not dare to neglect, and went out of the city in person, and welcomed Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang into the mountain city with great courtesy.
"Si Geduo, I heard that your tribe has an envoy sent by Li Shimin to visit." Cheng Yaojin suddenly asked after the exchange of greetings and the conversation.
A trace of uneasiness flashed across Sigodo's face, and he said: "General Chen is well-informed. A caravan from the Li family came to the tribe today to exchange medicinal materials and leather goods."
Cheng Yaojin snorted coldly and said sternly: "Si Geduo, do you think I am an idiot? Our Far East Army, the Li family, and the Zhu family are fighting in full swing in Sichuan and Shu. How can there be a caravan?" Run to you."
Si Geduo secretly sighed in his heart, thinking that Li Shimin's people were really bad at what they did, and most of them had the Far East Army's meticulous work. This kind of thing really couldn't be hidden, so he had to bite the bullet and said: "General Chen, please understand the difficulties of our Si barbarians. I The Si barbarians have always been on good terms with the Far East Army, and I have always been sincerely loyal to His Highness King Qin An. However, the Li family is powerful. I consider the lives of tens of thousands of people in the tribe and do not dare to offend the Li family, so I have to let them in. Mountain city.”
Shen Guang's eyes were like daggers, staring into Si Geduo's eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Si Geduo, you'd better not have any unnecessary thoughts. Although I, His Highness King Qin An, value benevolence and righteousness, this matter involves the ownership of the land of Sichuan and Shu. I will never be lenient. This is a personal letter from His Highness King Qin An to you. You may wish to read it carefully."
When Xi Geduo heard this, he couldn't help being shocked. With the unremitting efforts of the Xiaoyu Theater and the Military Intelligence Bureau personnel all over the world, the reputation of Qin'an King Junlin is so loud now, even among the Si barbarians, he is famous and fierce. He was so famous that he didn't expect such a person to write a personal letter to him, which immediately made Sigodo feel a little flattered.
Si Geduo in Cheng Yaojinhe
Shen Guang felt a little weak as he asked questions one after another. He took the letter with both hands, turned his head and looked away, and said to his left and right: "Your Majesty is tired from traveling. Please go to the guest house to rest. Don't neglect it."
Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang gave the warning and handed over the letter prepared in Wang Junlin's name to Si Geduo, but Si Geduo still did not express his determination immediately. It was obvious that the bargaining chip given by Li Shimin was not small.
No matter whether Si Geduo was hesitant or wanted to have both sides and wait for the price, the key lies in the people sent by Li Shimin. Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang had already made plans on the way here, so they were not in a hurry.
Therefore, they said nothing more and led the people to the guest house with the waiter from Siman Mountain City with a cold face.
After settling down, washing up, and enjoying the not-so-delicious food of the Si barbarians, Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang began to talk in secret.
"Brother Shen, do you know the story of how Ban Chao of the Eastern Han Dynasty was granted the title of marquis and settled in the Western Regions?" Cheng Yaojin asked straight to the point.
Shen Guang seemed to have expected it, and said with a smile: "To be honest, Brother Cheng, I also have great admiration for the champions Hou Huo Qubing and Dingyuan Hou Banchao. If I can imitate these two ancestors and achieve great things, this life will be worthwhile."
"What Brother Shen said is absolutely true." Cheng Yaojin said with a cruel smile on his face: "As long as we kill all the Li family members in Siman Mountain City, we can eliminate the possibility of Si Geduo falling to the Li family."
Although Shen Guang had not read many books, he obviously knew that Ban Chao was sent to the Western Regions. In the Shanshan Kingdom, thirty-six of his men attacked and killed the Huns envoys, forcing King Shanshan to completely surrender to the Eastern Han Dynasty. He gritted his teeth and said: "In this case, late at night tonight, after everyone is asleep, I will take a hundred special forces experts to the place where Zhixuan lives and kill them all."
"The day before yesterday, I led 20,000 people to fight Duan Zhixuan for a whole day and a night. This man has a good mind and should not be underestimated." Cheng Yaojin shook his head and said solemnly in a low voice: "I heard that Duan Zhixuan is very powerful and has also broken his merits. The masters brought here must be very strong. If we want to destroy each other in this mountain city, we probably need to make some careful plans."
Shen Guang still knew a little about Cheng Yaojin's abilities, especially since the prince valued this person very much. He must not be simple, so he said seriously: "Brother Cheng, does he have another clever plan?"
Cheng Yaojin had an unpredictable look on his face, smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "I actually don't have any clever ideas, but I expected that Duan Zhixuan and us were thinking of getting together, and they would definitely take action against us tonight. What we are doing is to take advantage of the plan, but this requires Master Shen to make great efforts. I wonder if Master Shen has anyone trustworthy among these barbarians."
Shen Guang said with a smile: "I have expected Brother Cheng to ask this question a long time ago. Si Gordo's younger brother Si Shuishu has already given up on our Far East Army. To be honest, even if Li Shimin didn't send Duan Zhixuan here this time, we would still help him. That Si Shuishu got rid of his younger brother and helped him rule the Si barbarians."
"If that's the case, it's easy." Cheng Yaojin was immediately overjoyed, "I know that Brother Shen is known as the Flying Flesh Immortal, and his light kung fu and movement are similar to those of a ghost. I don't know that in this mountainous mountain city, I want Brother Shen to kill those beasts. I wonder if I can do it if I steal more."
"Brother Cheng wants to steal the money and let Duan Zhixuan kill Si Gordo by mistake, and then use the Si barbarians to kill Duan Zhixuan and his party." Shen Guang thought for a while and then understood Cheng Yaojin's plan, and said with a glint in his eyes: " As for what Brother Cheng said, what's the difficulty? This mountain city is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den. Sigodo will definitely entertain us tonight, and after the banquet, I will steal it over."
…………
…………
In the evening, after the banquet, Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang walked toward the guest house together, surrounded by a hundred special force masters.
At a certain moment, Cheng Yaojin realized something and turned around to look. Unexpectedly, Shen Guang, who was on his right hand side, had disappeared silently.
As the barbarian king of the Siman tribe, Si Geduo's residence is the largest mansion with the characteristics of the Siman tribe in the city of the Siman king.
The residence of the Barbarian King is naturally the most heavily guarded place among the Xi Barbarians, and there are many Si Barbarian warriors on guard and patrol.
But Shen Guang entered Manwang's Mansion easily. The outer wall where he was at this time was the west garden of Manwang's Mansion. The courtyard was quiet, and not many barbarian warriors could be seen.
The men of the Si barbarian tribe have also drunk patron wine before, but because the quantity is rare and very precious, only the leaders of the Yi barbarian tribe can drink it on weekdays. Tonight, because Cheng Yaojin and Shen Guang brought a large amount of patron wine, the quantity There were more, and many warriors from the Yi barbarian tribe also received some.
Although he didn't drink much because the guards in Prince Man's Mansion were responsible for patrolling at night, some things had been put into the wine by Shen Guang. As long as he drank this wine, he would become extremely drunk no matter how much he drank.
In addition, Shen Guang had stopped by this Prince Man's Mansion when he was attending a banquet in the evening. He measured the size visually at that time. Prince Man's Mansion faces south and north with east and west gardens, the living room and the main house where Man King Si Gedo lives. Between the east and west gardens.
The warriors at the gate of Prince Man's Mansion obviously did not drink. There were ten burly Xi barbarian warriors standing guard, and there were also several groups of patrolling Xi barbarian warriors. Therefore, although Shen Guang's light skills were unparalleled in the world, he still behaved cautiously and chose to go from the west. Garden dive.
In the darkness, Shen Guang could barely see the situation in the courtyard. His figure was like a ghost, as if he had no weight at all. He slowly slid to the ground and then groped all the way to the gate of the West Garden.
Shen Guang did not open the door because the sound of the door leaves turning would be very harsh and noticeable at night.
The main courtyard was very quiet, and no dogs were heard. However, Shen Guang still made some slight noises behind the door, and stuffed a few pieces of poisonous dried meat through the crack of the door. After a while, there was still no movement. Shen Guang After making sure there were no dogs, I climbed over the courtyard wall again. There were two rows of side rooms inside, with the hall to the south and the main living room to the north.
Shen Guang is holding a repeating fast crossbow in his sleeve. This kind of fast crossbow is much smaller than the fast crossbow used by ordinary sergeants of the Far Eastern Army, but its range is also much closer than that used by the army. However, it has a very high target within thirty steps. It's accurate and lethal, but I haven't had a chance to use it during this infiltration. I only hold it in my hand just in case, because the crossbow arrows he prepared have a strange poison that seals the throat when it sees blood, which can prevent the person being killed from screaming. The sound comes.
Shen Guang half-hunched his body and moved along the side room to the main room like a puff of smoke. He moved at an astonishing speed without making any sound.
Along the way, he met a dozen sentry guards sitting or leaning, who were obviously dozing off after drinking patron wine. Shen Guang slid past them without attracting the slightest attention.
Shen Guang came silently outside the lighted room, squatted under the window, and heard snoring inside. Then he used a dagger to poke through the crack in the door, gently moved the latch inside, and locked the door. Step back.
During this process, Shen Guang closed his eyes and listened to the movement inside. His breathing was very even. The sleeping person was not awakened. He was not nervous at all. With his Qinggong strength, the difficulty of this operation was not that big. This matter was no small matter, so he did it very carefully and planned it carefully.
This is mainly due to the fact that Si Gordo is the barbarian king of the Si Barbarians, and he is in his own Si Barbarian King's city. Therefore, although there are some powerful Xi Barbarian masters in his mansion, and even 800 Si Barbarian warriors guarding him, his vigilance Performed very poorly.
Although Shen Guang was unparalleled in his Qinggong skills, he obviously didn't have much experience in entering private houses at night, stealing chickens and poking dogs, assassinating people and picking flowers, so he continued to turn the door bolt very carefully, doing it very gently, and only letting the door latch move a little bit each time. will make any sound.
After about a quarter of an hour, Shen Guang first slightly lifted the door leaf, and then gently pushed the door.
Because the door leaf is lifted, the sound of opening the door becomes very soft. However, the decoration technology of this era still inevitably makes some noise. The squeaking sound of the door leaf is actually very small, but it is still a bit harsh at night. Shen Guang's expression did not change. He continued to push until it was wide enough for a person to enter, and without seeing any movement from him, he floated into the room and touched the bedside.
There were actually five people on the oversized bed. Except for the burly Sigodo, there were four people on both sides who smelled of makeup and powder. They were clearly four very beautiful people, with their breasts exposed. Under the moonlight coming in from the door and window, they looked... A fair and attractive woman.
Shen Guang gently got on the bed, with a small glass bottle in his hand. He held his breath and opened the lid, and slowly moved it under the noses of Sigodo and the four women on both sides.
The next moment, all five people on the bed fell unconscious and could not wake up in a short time.
Then, Shen Guang casually wiped a handful on the chests of the four women, and then left with Sigodo on his shoulders.
