The thief of the fortress dominates the world

Chapter 227
There is a curfew in the city, and there is almost no one on the street.The night was dark, the sky was full of dark clouds, and there was no moonlight at all.Only a few wind lanterns along the street flickered alone in the night, showing a somewhat strange atmosphere.

The red light hangs high at the entrance of Wanchun Tower, and the chatter and laughter of guests and women can be heard from time to time in the building, and occasionally there are one or two high-pitched or low-pitched calls that make people think, making this dark winter Added a touch of ambiguity at night.

In a small two-story building opposite the Wanchun Building, there are lights like beans.A wooden table, next to a person in white clothes like snow, sitting upright and meditating.

The wooden door was gently pushed open, and a person came in quietly, approached the man in white and said softly: "My lord, the Wanchun Building has been completely surrounded, and the front yard and the back door are also staffed. I also arranged manpower at the street corner outside."

Of course this person is Shen Lian, and the man in white is naturally Bai Jinxiu.

"Nothing unusual?" Bai Jinxiu asked in a deep voice.

"It seems everything is normal now." Shen Lian replied in a low voice.

"I have a hunch that tonight will definitely not go well. Remember to be quick when you act, and no one is allowed to leave." Bai Jinxiu said after pondering for a while.

Although Shen Lian was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask further questions, nodded and said: "This subordinate understands." After saying that, he bowed and went out quietly.

At this time, in Wanchun Building, in a quiet room in the backyard, the owner of Wanchun Building, Liu Zhong, was the middle-aged man who ordered the attack on the post house before. His apparent identity was the owner of Wanchun Building, Datong The elder brother of the magistrate Mu Zuo's concubine, but his real identity is actually the leader of the Manchu government in Datong.

The person who discussed things with him before was called Liu Tianzong, and he was his deputy.Both of them were from the Han army with a white flag inlaid. They were originally from the Ming Dynasty. Later, they joined the Manchu Qing Dynasty and became Manchu citizens.

"Tian Zong, is the manpower arranged properly?" Liu Zhong asked, pacing around the room a little uneasy.

"My lord, the slaves have been properly arranged. There are 50 people in total, all of whom are dead soldiers from Shengjing. They are already waiting in the secret room. They can leave at any time as long as the lord gives the order." Liu Tianzong said in a deep voice.

"Okay, is there any movement at the post house?" Liu Zhong asked again after his flustered heart calmed down a bit.

"It looks like everything is calm. I asked the gatekeeper of the post house, and he said that the kid surnamed Jiang didn't leave the post house today, and his people were guarding the door, so I don't know the specific situation inside. But The small courtyard where the surnamed Jiang lives can only accommodate a dozen people. Obviously, it is impossible for all his guards to live there. In my own courtyard, there is no abnormal movement. So we 50 people just need to rush into the small courtyard, and it will be too late when his other guards arrive, and the one surnamed Jiang will have already conferred the title."

Liu Tianzong said in a low voice.

I don't know why, Liu Zhong's original urgent mood now has a kind of inexplicable anxiety, as if something is wrong.But he couldn't tell what was wrong.This made him anxious like a trapped animal.But the action is imminent, and he can't show it, so as not to affect the morale of the army.

"Is that post office official reliable?" Liu Zhong stopped and asked in a low voice.

"It should be reliable. The servant has dealt with him many times. This person is very greedy for money." Although Liu Tian spoke concisely, the meaning was very clear.

Liu Zhong didn't say anything anymore, and after walking back and forth in the room for a few times, he finally hissed: "Okay, there is no turning back when you shoot the bow, success or failure depends on it. Divide the people into two groups, one group walks through the back door, and the other group walks through the back door. Bo walk through the tunnel and guard the back road."

"Slave understands." After speaking, Liu Tianzong stepped out of the quiet room and hid in the boundless darkness.

In the posthouse, Jiang Chuan stood in front of the window looking at the dark night, and asked, "Is the posthouse official right?"

"My lord, don't worry, everything is going according to my lord's orders." Behind him, Bai Mu said in a deep voice.

"That's good. I was just guessing before, but I didn't expect that someone would really take my idea. If that's the case, then let's come and catch the turtle." Jiang Chuan said lightly.

After he realized the danger today, he gathered all the people in the posthouse for interrogation.He knew very well that if someone really wanted to do something to him, he would definitely get information from the people in the posthouse.

Sure enough, a person was found out under the first trial, and this person confessed that someone had repeatedly asked him for information about his group.

And this person explained that the person who inquired with him seemed to be the person in charge of purchasing in the Wanchun building.

People who are greedy for money will generally cherish their lives. People often know how to choose when facing life and petty profits.

Hearing the news, Jiang Chuan was amused, and it really had something to do with Wanchunlou.That being the case, it might as well do the trick.With a plan in mind, after explaining it, he waited for the enemy to come to his door.

Jin Yiwei's side is going to move tonight, and his side is also prepared. As long as someone dares to move, he will definitely make them regret their worthwhile trip.

When midnight was approaching, the back door of Wanchun Building opened quietly, and a figure stepped out, looked around, pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while to confirm it was safe, and then barked twice.

Not long after, the back door opened wide, and a group of masked men in black flashed out from the back door without a sound. These men had long knives in their hands, even the blades were painted black, bowed and arrowed behind their backs, and their whole bodies were covered in black. Led by a black-clothed leader, they ran towards the direction of the posthouse. Everyone's footsteps were light and quick, without making a sound, obviously they were all good hands.

At this time, Jin Yiwei, who was ambushing behind the Wanchun Tower, also discovered these men in black who thought they were invisible.Sitting at the back door is a Heibingtai Baihu, and now it is also a Jinyiwei Baihu, who was originally the Tiewei Baihu officer next to Jiang Chuan.

"The direction of these people seems to be going in the direction of the post house, which is obviously not good for the lord. The first and second teams intercept them at the intersection, quickly resolve the battle, and don't startle the enemy. The others are standing by and are not allowed to act rashly." Baihu slightly Zuo Shenyin ordered decisively.

Soon, the order was passed on, and two teams of Jinyiwei quietly appeared on the dark street from their hiding place, one team was just blocking the intersection of the street, and the other team was just outflanking from behind.

When the team of men in black rushed to the intersection without any surprises, everyone thought in their hearts that the operation tonight would go smoothly, but the team leader stopped suddenly and whispered: "Not good!" Suddenly, there was a whistling sound in the air, and anyone with a little experience could tell that it was the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air.

　The second is coming.
