Chapter 170 Assassination of Li Zitong

Li Zitong was from Cheng County, Donghai County.

This man was originally a wealthy man in the world. He had a unique weapon called the Bamboo Bronze Whip. This weapon was shaped like a long stick and could be soft or hard. It was specialized in destroying the internal energy. He was very powerful and was listed as a "wonderful skill".

'Zhilin, is famous in the world.

He was dissatisfied with the tyranny of Shandong during Emperor Yang's second expedition to Goguryeo, and rebelled in Changbai Mountain. Later, he was jealous of Zuo Caixiang, the leader of the Changbai Mountain rebels, so he led his troops south to cross the Huaihe River and supported Du Fuwei as the leader.

Leader, but later he turned against Du Fuwei for some reason, led his people to occupy Hailing County, supported 20,000 troops, and called himself a general, with great momentum.

Hailing County is affiliated with Jiangdu and is one of the thirteen counties under the jurisdiction of Jiangdu. It can almost be said to be just outside Jiangdu City. The advantage of this distance is that after Yu Wenhua and Regicide led their army northward,

The reason why Li Zitong took the opportunity to make a sneak attack and quickly captured Jiangdu County.

How can you allow others to sleep soundly beside the couch?

Chu Tianxiu and Li Zitong have no grudges, but Li Zitong's territory is too close to Jiangdu. If on the day Yang Guang was killed by Yu Wenhuaji, Li Zitong also received the news and secretly performed some tricks, then

Chu Tianxiu's trip to Jiangdu in half a year is probably going to have a lot of twists and turns.

In addition, Chu Tianxiu also really took a fancy to Li Zitong's territory. After all, starting from Hailing County to attack Jiangdu County would save a lot of trouble than starting from Piling County.

However, it is precisely because Hailing County is too close to Jiangdu that Chutian Xiuxi must not move during this trip. Once he takes action, he must quickly capture Hailing County with a thunderous force.

Otherwise, if there is a slight delay and a situation arises where two tigers are fighting each other and Yang Guang of Jiangdu gets a big advantage, Chu Tianxiu will become the biggest laughing stock in the world.

In terms of military strength, Li Zitong had 20,000 soldiers, and each of them was an elite who was honed by repeated battles with the Sui army. Although Chu Tianxiu had many soldiers and horses, in a short period of time, he only had what Qin Qiong had.

Seven thousand troops were stationed, so he had to pay attention to some skills in this battle.

After Chu Tianxiu glanced at him, he scanned the situation at the door of the City Lord's Mansion and saw that there were almost hundreds of soldiers guarding the two gatekeepers. Therefore, it was easy for him to kill people, but it was impossible not to cause trouble.

When there was any movement, he casually took out a brass token from his arms, waved it in front of their eyes, and said with a smile:

Therefore, after the meeting, Chu Tianxiu retained Chu Liang, who was in charge of intelligence, and asked him to be responsible for arranging an identity for himself so that he could enter Hailing County.

Such a lonely scene is not even comparable to the scenes in the big towns outside Jinling City, not to mention county towns like Jiangyin and Wuxi.

Ever since Chu Tianxiu practiced the Taoist Heart Demon Technique, his attainments in spiritual powers have become more and more powerful, not only allowing him to practice charm, mind-bewitching and other spiritual mystical arts derived from the Yingui sect.

, he picked it up almost at his fingertips, and let him combine some knowledge and insights about hypnosis, psychological suggestion, personality induction and other aspects from his previous life to quietly create some small methods of hypnosis.

Such boring days lasted for ten days. Chu Tianxiu just walked out of the inn and walked swaggering towards the city lord's palace!

It just so happened that Li Zitong, a close neighbor, was a core target that Chu Liang valued, so he spent a lot of effort to insert dark network personnel in Hailing County. Therefore, he just made some arrangements and gave Chu Liang

Tianxiu arranged for a rice merchant to set out on a grain ship full of rice and sneak into Hailing City easily.

"Stop, who are you? What are you doing here?"

The token in Chu Tianxiu's hand swung so fast that neither of them could see clearly what it looked like. They could only faintly see the word "Zhenhai" on the token, so a guard thought hard and found out

After he really didn't remember that there was no such token in his army, he wanted to ask.

But for some reason, he obviously wanted to ask something, but after he glanced in the direction of Chu Tianxiu and saw his eyes, he suddenly felt cautious and trance-like, and then he said vaguely:

It is essential that the troops move dangerously, so that the leader Chu Tianxiu can imitate Zhuanzhu and Yaoli in the Spring and Autumn Period, execute a wave of blows, and carry out a beheading tactic. Otherwise, this is obviously a weak attack on the strong, but a quick victory.

This battle is not easy to fight.

In the past few years, Hailing County has been at war, which has made the people's livelihood in this county poor. Not only the hotels and shops on the streets, but more than half of them have closed down. Even except for some soldiers hurrying on the streets, there are no people on the streets.

A few pedestrians were walking normally.

The area of ​​Hailing County is not large, it is just an ordinary county town. Therefore, Li Zitong's city lord's palace does not occupy a large area. Therefore, Chu Tianxiu just held the token in his hand and walked a little on the road.

The eyes of the sentries shook for a moment before letting him walk into the city lord's palace.

Li Zitong organized the army well and ran the army effectively. Naturally, he would not let idle people wait and easily enter the city lord's palace. Therefore, before he could enter the gate of the city lord's palace, two soldiers guarding the door faced each other fiercely with knives.

said.

After Chu Tianxiu entered the main hall, he saw that Li Zitong was dressed as a Confucian scholar. He was about fifty years old and had a white head. He looked like a very learned old man discussing things. When he came to Chu

After Tianxiu arrived, he immediately became furious and yelled.

Chu Tianxiu didn't care that his head was a little confused. He was trying to think about things on the spot, but he could only vaguely feel that something seemed to be wrong in something. But why couldn't he think of the problem at night?

Go.

"Who are you? You are so unruly? Didn't you see me——"

In the first few days, Chu Tianxiu remained calm and just found a hotel that was still open to stay. Then he summoned several "Dark Bird" personnel who were rooted there and asked them about Li Zitong.

Regarding the accommodation and layout here, I am just familiar with the streets and alleys in Hailing County, and I haven't done much.

This time, he just tried his best to slightly change the perceptions of the guards, allowing them to directly classify Chu Tianxiu as one of their own without being affected too much.

"I am General Li's secret agent. I have important secrets to report to the general! This is the token, please let me go!"

"The token is correct, sir, please come in!"

wrong--

After all, Li Zitong could be regarded as a prominent figure in the world, so after subconsciously scolding him, he immediately felt that something was wrong. After he quickly glanced at Chu Tianxiu's appearance, he couldn't help but feel a shiver in his heart, almost shocked.

Breathe out.

"Lord, be careful! This person is Jiangyin Chu Tianxiu! There is an assassin!"

Li Zitong's reaction was not slow, but the reaction of the Confucian scholar beside him was even faster. Almost at the first sight of Chu Tianxiu, he recognized Chu Tianxiu's identity and shouted loudly.
Chapter completed!
