I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 187 Prince Yi Zhong, Rebellion!

Whoosh!
Jia Cong shot an arrow as fast as thunder.

Almost instantly, it shot the Saker Falcon in the neck.

The Saker Falcon only had time to let out a half-moaning cry before it stopped abruptly and fell from mid-air.

Soon, a cloud of blood spilled and fell to the ground.

A eunuch had already rushed forward, picked up the Saker Falcon on the ground, and ran to Emperor Yonglong to claim credit.

"Send it up!"

Emperor Yonglong gave an order, and soon the Saker Falcon came into his hands.

Looking at the arrow that hit his neck, Emperor Yonglong couldn't help but marvel at it.

He turned to look at Jia Cong and couldn't help but praise him: "As expected, you are the best archer in Daxia. You are really a master archer!"

"God shot!"

"God shot!"

"God shot!"

Tens of thousands of soldiers followed suit and shouted, causing the trees on the mountains to rustle and countless prey to flee.

Next, Emperor Yonglong did not continue hunting, but went to the temporary palace to rest.

The hunting does not end in one day, but lasts for as long as twenty days.

Hunting actually has certain political significance.

Hunting is equivalent to a training march, and it is also a means of demonstrating a country's military strength, and it also has a sacrificial function.

In the following period of time, when Emperor Yonglong was in the mood, he would go out hunting.

But Jia Cong would not take action easily.

Even if he had to attack several times, he would replenish his arrows in time afterwards.

Moreover, Jia Cong was very vigilant and would immediately become alert at the slightest sign of trouble.

Because he knew that Prince Yizhong must have rebelled during the hunting trip in Tiewang Mountain.

The further you go, the more dangerous it becomes.

Jia Cong's vigilance made Feng Ziying also nervous.

However, it was later proved that Jia Cong was just overly nervous.

Feng Ziying couldn't help but persuade Jia Cong not to be so nervous, as there were tens of thousands of troops guarding them and there was no danger.

Feng Ziying asked Jia Cong to relax and even advised him to go hunting to relax.

Jia Cong was not willing to listen.

This made Feng Ziying even unable to help but complain in front of Emperor Yonglong.

Of course, it was called a complaint, but in fact it was a request for credit for Jia Cong.

Emperor Yonglong naturally saw it clearly, but he was still very happy.

Jia Cong is so cautious and conscientious, how could Emperor Yonglong be dissatisfied?
Half a month passed in a flash, and this hunting trip has come to an end.

Jia Cong became more cautious and did not miss any sign of trouble.

That night, Jia Cong lay in the military tent, half asleep and half awake, but still alert.

He couldn't do this originally.

After he reached the minor success stage of Hunyuan Sutra, the time he needed to sleep each day was greatly reduced.

And the energy is becoming more and more vigorous.

As long as he is willing, he can remain alert even in his sleep.

Soon, Jia Cong realized that something was wrong.

It seemed too quiet outside.

Jia Cong quietly climbed out of bed without having to put on any clothes because he usually slept with his clothes on.

Next, Jia Cong quietly walked out of the tent.

Jia Cong's actions woke up Feng Ziying who was in the same tent with him.

However, Feng Ziying was too lazy to pay attention to Jia Cong.

Because in the past half month, Feng Ziying had been awakened countless times.

At the beginning, he followed this junior brother out to explore.

Later on, they found out that every time it was a false alarm, so Feng Ziying was too lazy to go crazy with Jia Cong.

After leaving the tent, it was unusually quiet outside. However, Jia Cong still felt something was wrong, so he quietly moved forward.

In the dark night, Jia Cong was investigating the secret sentry.

Suddenly, Jia Cong discovered that a secret sentry in front of him had disappeared!

coming!

The secret sentry disappeared, so someone must have taken the opportunity to sneak in and killed him.

And the secret sentry didn't make any sound, which means the person who sneaked in must be an expert.

And he seemed to be very familiar with the defense of the military camp.

After realizing this, Jia Cong did not dare to delay. He quickly hid himself and shouted, "Enemy attack! Protect the emperor!"

This loud shout immediately alarmed all the guards.

These internal guards crawled out of the military camp and assembled quickly.

Jia Cong retreated carefully and quickly, and then reunited with Feng Ziying.

Feng Ziying asked hurriedly, "Junior brother, were you the one who shouted just now? Are there really rebels outside?"

Jia Cong said, "Brother, our secret sentry was touched. It must be a rebel who sneaked in."

"If we follow our previous preparations, we will definitely be able to find the enemy."

Although Feng Ziying complained about Jia Cong's panic, at this critical moment, he chose to believe Jia Cong.

He quickly gave the order to light the fire.

After Feng Ziying gave the order, soldiers quickly lit up rockets and shot them forward.

Soon, a fire started burning outside Emperor Yonglong's palace.

And this fire belt was also Jia Cong's idea.

He set up a quarantine zone outside the guard circle.

Outside these isolation zones, a circle of firewood was buried and camouflaged on the outside.

In an emergency, all you need to do is use a rocket to ignite a circle of fire.

This circle of fire not only has a temporary isolation effect, but also prevents the enemy from entering before the fire is extinguished.

At the same time, you can also see the enemies in the dark clearly, making them turn from darkness to light.

After the circle of fire started burning, as expected, everyone saw their enemy.

These enemies were all concentrated on the north side, wearing uniforms almost the same as theirs.

These rebels actually came from the Twelve Battalions of the Beijing Camp!

And it seems that they have no intention of hiding their true identities.

And the number of people on the opposite side was far greater than theirs, as many as six thousand!

And there were only 3,000 guarding soldiers.

Although this hunt mobilized as many as two or three thousand people.

But most of these two to three thousand people are responsible for guarding outside.

There are only three thousand inner guards who are responsible for personal protection.

The number of people on the other side is twice as many as theirs!
The other party seemed to be fully confident of success, so he did not bother to hide his whereabouts.

Of course, in fact, with so many soldiers rebelling, it would be impossible not to detect it afterwards, so even if they wanted to cover it up, it would be useless.

Feng Ziying quickly recognized the origins of these soldiers.

"They are from the Xiaoqi Battalion and Guoqiang Battalion, two of the twelve battalions. Both battalions are under the control of Prince Yi Zhong."

"We didn't use the manpower from these two battalions for this garrison!"

"They must have sneaked in from Tiewang Mountain. There must be their accomplices among the defending troops!"

"However, these insiders only let them in quietly and did not act with them."

"However, we must hold out for a while and immediately send out a signal for help so that the troops stationed outside can come to our aid."

"As long as we wait for the troops outside to arrive, we can ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"During this period of time, we must be on guard against their desperate actions!"

Jia Cong had long known that the person who rebelled was Prince Yi Zhong.

But I have to admire this old guy. He has indeed made a lot of preparations in secret.
