    It was night, almost midnight, thirty miles west of the city, and the emperor's palace was unusually quiet. Only a few flickering candles could be seen in the darkness. The patrolling imperial troops were not dense, and the appearance seemed calm.  But in fact, thousands of Imperial Guards and Xuanwu Guards were already fully armed and ambush among the grass and trees.

    "I'm afraid Chen Xu is just deceiving the public with his lies. Your Majesty, it's better to rest early to avoid feeling unwell tomorrow!"

    In the large tent of the parade, only two oil candles, which were not very bright, were lit. Except for the emperor, Li Si, Wang Ben and other ministers accompanying the parade were all there. The imperial servant Zhao Gao stood up and said softly.

    "It's still early, please wait!" Qin Shihuang said expressionlessly while sitting on a big chair covered with bearskin.

    "Wang Wu, your damn information is wrong!" Chen Xu, Wang Wu, Yu Wuya and others stood on the west gate tower of Wancheng, looking at the direction of the emperor's camp. Chen Xu was very uneasy.  turned around and asked.

    After knowing that Qin Shihuang was coming to Nanyang for his tour, Chen Xu asked Wang Wu to inquire about the copper and iron merchant Ran Qi. After a few days of probing, he found out that Ran Qi had some unusual behavior.  In addition to the huge copper and iron workshop in the hill, there are also more than a dozen large and small workshops in the group of workshops on the river bank. The total number of people in these workshops is over a thousand.  The workshop has been transporting goods non-stop recently, and a large number of slaves and helpers have also quietly left. Wang Jian's secret guards followed and made secret inquiries several times, and found that these people and goods were hidden in a hill in the west of the city.  This hill is only a few miles away from the emperor's camp.

    "It should be true. These people were sneaky and hid in the mountains for several days and never came out. If they don't take action tonight, the emperor will break camp and set off early tomorrow morning. Both the Forbidden Army and the Xuanwu Guards are fast horses. They want to chase them.  You can't even catch up!" Wang Wu said with a solemn expression.

    "Don't be impatient, my dear benefactor. The ugly time is when a person's spirit and soul are most troubled. Ran Hao is probably waiting for the opportunity!" Yu Wuya said, holding the iron sword and holding a lollipop in his mouth.

    "It seems that Ran Qi is not an ordinary person. He must have someone who is proficient in the art of war!" Wang San said with a frown.

    "Then keep waiting!" Chen Xu sighed helplessly.

    Today he reminded Qin Shihuang that bandits might attack him in the middle of the night, and he was talking about Ran Hao.

    Because Ran Hao, Chen Ping and Yingbu colluded together, they must have evil intentions, and thinking that Qin Shihuang's several tours were harassed by the resistance forces of the Six Nations along the way, Ran Hao seized this opportunity to think  Killing Qin Shihuang is completely reasonable.

    However, in an era where transportation is basically based on walking and communication is basically relying on roaring, it is definitely not an easy task to coordinate an attack on Qin Shihuang's camp just right, because at night not only are there many wild animals such as tigers and wolves in the wilderness, but also wild animals are everywhere.  It is extremely difficult to move in the mountains, and it is pitch dark in the middle of the night, and you dare not light torches. It is very unreliable to attack the camp without sufficient preparations.

    After waiting for nearly an hour, Chen Xu's eyes were extremely dry, his upper and lower eyelids were constantly fighting, and he was yawning one after another. Just when he felt like he was about to sleep, suddenly someone outside the east of the city was shouting.  The sound came, and at the same time, groups of fire began to appear, and flames started to rise in the densely packed copper and iron workshops along the river bank. It seemed that many copper and iron workshops were on fire at the same time.

    Damn it!  Chen Xu was shocked and at the same time in a daze. How could it be that the east of the city was in action? It shouldn't be a night attack on the emperor's residence, but the emperor was stationed in the west of the city at this time.

    "Haha, Wang San is right. There are indeed people under Ran Hao who are proficient in the art of war. This is a plan to attack the east and attack the west!" Yu Wuya also suddenly became excited.

    "Woo~wu~~" Accompanied by several low and long horn sounds, a place five miles east of the city was suddenly lit by countless torches. At the same time, there were roars one after another, and there seemed to be countless people shouting and horses neighing.  Thousands of men and horses gathered, and soon turned into several torch-long dragons and quickly headed towards the workshop that was lit by flames.

    "This is a high-ranking person from the county captain's mansion!" Wang Wu said.

    Soon, after these long torch dragons entered the area where the workshop was gathered, there seemed to be the sound of clanking gold and iron in the roar, and at the same time, there were screams one after another.

    It was too far away to see, but Chen Xu could also guess that at this time, there must be a state of fighting with people on their backs, and because it was a silent night, the firelight and the sound of people screaming were particularly clear, and the sound of killing could probably be heard for dozens of people.  miles away.

    The sudden movement suddenly woke up everyone in Wancheng, and lights were lit in all the houses in the city.p; "Haha, the Xuanwu Forbidden Army is nothing! Zhao Zheng, son, accept your fate!"

    The big man laughed loudly, stabbed left and right with his long halberd and headed straight for the central tent.

    "Wang is here to meet you!" Wang Ben held a big sword in his hand to block the big man, and dozens of forbidden soldiers behind him held blazing torches in their hands.

    "Wang Jian?" The big man was slightly startled. He couldn't see clearly in the night.

    "That's my father, a certain Tongwuhou Wang Ben!"

    "Wang Ben! It's okay, you, the Wang family, and your son are aiding the oppression of Zhou. It was Wang Jian who destroyed our great Chu. Today, I will kill you first! You must die~" The big man roared and rushed forward with his halberd. Wang Ben did not answer, holding the big sword in his hand.  He raised his body and pounced, the two of them roared and fought together like two tigers.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
