The struggle of the reborn prince

"If there is a paradise on earth, Damascus must be in it. If heaven is in the sky, Damascus must be as famous as it." This city, known as the city of paradise and gardens, was once the starting point of the Silk Road in the West and the end of the East.But now this once world-famous city has declined with the decline of the dynasty. There are constant wars between Damascus and other cities in nearby areas, social order is becoming increasingly chaotic, and the business that supports the prosperity of the city is also declining.

The heat of the evening has receded, but there are few pedestrians on the spacious streets, and the air is filled with the stench of garbage and wanton flowing sewage.In this chaotic period, the city has been left alone, and for safety and maintenance people live together according to ethnicity, religion or occupation. Muslims are in the center of the city, Christians are in the northeast, Jews are in the southeast. A settlement is a city, with its own chieftain, its own urban facilities, monasteries, water sources, and markets.

'Da da...' On the road paved with thick stones, there was the crisp sound of hoofs hitting the ground. A team of more than 40 horses entered the city before night fell. The house immediately attracted countless greedy eyes behind the retaining wall, hoping that they could enter their market, because it could bring a lot of tax dollars to their economically struggling towns.

But the horse team did not intend to stop at all. The riders on horseback asked them where a place was, and the people who came forward to solicit the caravan stopped immediately, their faces were full of panic, as if they were in awe of the place, and they didn't want to stop. Dare to answer.Don't even want to mention it, it seems that there is a group of demons living there.In the end the knight in the cavalry had to pay a gold dinar to bribe a street kid to find the guide.

But the child who led the way refused to continue leading the way at a place far away from the destination.Pointing to the approximate location, he ran away like flying. The knight cursed helplessly and followed the route indicated by the child.And he suddenly found that the place was extremely quiet, not even a cat or dog was seen around, and the shadowed lower town exuded a kind of nameless terror, which made the horses under the crotch of these knights feel uneasy, their ears turned from side to side, and they kept beating. Snorting.

Walking down the city, the leading knight muttered to the door on duty for a long time.Then he took out a letter from his bosom and handed it over, the door seemed to believe him, but he didn't open the door to let him in.After waiting for a long time, a group of people rushed out. After the leader said a few words to the leader of the horse team, he waved his hand. After the people who came out of the city unloaded all the horses' packs and moved them into the city, there was a "bang" sound at the door. Closed again.

The leader of the horse team left immediately without stopping, and made several rounds in the city.It is a typical house built around a spring, with trees, flowers and plants, and a white wall without any decoration facing the street. I don’t know how many of them are like this in the city. House of.If you are not familiar with it, it is easy to go to the wrong door.

"Brother Kui, do they believe it?" Someone walked into the yard and took the horse away, and a man tore off the hood covering his face and asked impatiently. It was indeed Li Tian from the special warfare brigade.

"Well, they believed that we belonged to the Lord of Pittsburgh. But they moved the things in. I was always worried that you would not be able to open the mechanism in time!" The leader also took off his turban.After washing his face by the spring, he said, but the man was Zhang Kui.

"Who am I? Seeing that they still have doubts, I opened the mechanism in advance, and you just wait to hear it!" Li Tian said with a smile.

"There is no problem with the disguise, I'm afraid they will open the box to check!" Zhang Kui still said uneasy.

"Don't worry, I can't fool them. I ate all the gunpowder. Where have they seen such good things!" Li Tian said carelessly.

"If you can't hear the noise, you don't need to take gunpowder. You just need to rush in and kill them all!" Zhang Kui threw the water on Li Tian's face, turned his head and entered the room.

"No problem, I can't kill them. I will tie gunpowder to my body and rush in to blow up their kennel!" Li Tian yelled behind Zhang Kui, he was still very confident in his craft.Sure enough, as soon as his words fell, there was a loud noise in the silent night, and even they who were several streets away felt the ground tremble.

"Brother Kui, it's done!" Hearing the movement, everyone in the room rushed out, Li Tian shouted excitedly to Zhang Kui.

"Well, it's ringing, but I don't know how effective it will be!" After so many years of hard work, Zhang Kui has changed from a blunt to a calm commander, "Liu San, send someone to secretly see how the effect is." , Caravans and action teams are all ready to evacuate in case something happens!"

"Zhang Tongzhi, I'll check it out myself!" Liu San saluted and hurried out to the explosion site.

"Boss Kui, don't look at it, it's a thousand catties of gunpowder. If they all move into that small castle, they are guaranteed to blow it up, and those who can come out alive will be immortals!" Li Tian was very dissatisfied with Zhang Kui's unnecessary actions. He pursed his lips and said.

"Don't dare to tell me to beat your teeth, there is only one boss in our army, and that is the emperor!" Zhang Kui grabbed Li Tian's skirt and said viciously.

"Urgent... I'm still in a hurry, I'm going to pack my things right now, I'll listen to Brother Kui!" Li Tian waved his hands again and again...

Liu San, who was investigating the situation, came back soon, and the situation at the scene was more serious than Li Tian expected.According to what he said, the castle in the city not only collapsed, it was blown up, leaving a big pit with a diameter of five or six feet in place, and other buildings were also affected.One of the people in the fort did not escape, and there are probably not many people around who are still alive. Some people can faintly hear howls in the ruins, and the scene is like hell.

However, the popularity of the people in this city seems to be not very good. There are many people who came to see the excitement, but no one stepped forward to help.As for why Zhang Kui and others traveled so far to Damascus to create the world's first explosive terrorist attack, the reason is very simple, just because it is related to the Mulayi country.

As large as a country, as small as an individual, it is difficult to maintain without economic income.These people in the Mulaiyi Kingdom are not good at production and do not know how to develop the economy, but so many people under them have to eat anyway, it is impossible to starve to death because of their beliefs, so they also need to have a source of income.And they are very good at giving full play to their strengths, using intimidation of political opponents to collect offerings, theft and robbery are also common methods.

Of course they can also be employed for various political or religious purposes.In order to facilitate business contacts and expand financial resources, the Mulayi Kingdom set up liaison offices in Damascus and other places to receive business, receive tribute, train and place assassins, start a door-to-door business, and set up a murder company.Of course, their blatant behavior could not escape Da Song's intelligence network.Cutting off people's wealth is equivalent to killing their parents, so the task force took it as one of the targets: one can cut off the important financial resources of the Mulaiyi Kingdom; the other can have a huge impact.

The task of eradicating the Damascus stronghold was handed over to the task force Zhang Kui.Through the initial reconnaissance, the intelligence agents found out the situation of the contact point of the Mulayi Kingdom in Damascus City. The stronghold was presided over by a priest sent by Sheikh, and it supported more than a hundred assassins.They don't go out on weekdays, but hide in a strong castle for training, waiting for business to come to their door.If a strong attack is adopted, the task force is only equipped with light weapons, and it is difficult to break through the city.Even if you break through the outer perimeter, the castle will be a lump of rock with the door closed, there is no way to get rid of it, and a strong attack will easily expose the target and leak the whereabouts.

The task force also thought about infiltrating the castle and launching a surprise attack in the name of 'negotiating business', but the killers were also afraid of being killed. Those assassins were very vigilant and never allowed more than two people to enter the castle, and they had to go through strict procedures before entering. It is strictly forbidden to bring in any weapons, even a needle.Compared with the assassins who had also undergone rigorous combat training, the task force members without weapons Da Song had no advantage, and if they entered, they would be suicide attackers.

After a period of observation, the intelligence agents found that the only ones who could enter the city without being inspected were the 'protection fees' paid by the lords. They probably believed that these lords had already been frightened and did not dare to do anything, but This small loophole became their reminder.So Zhang Kui, with the assistance of the intelligence system, made a plan to send explosives into the Mulaiyi assassin's stronghold by means of blasting, and use them as "earth planes" to meet Allah.

The intelligence agent soon found out that the lord of Pittsburgh would go to Damascus to pay tribute to the Mulayi Kingdom recently, and Zhang Kui decided to use this opportunity to implement the plan.He led a group of people to rob Pittsburgh's goods, and then sent the reworked tribute into the castle under the guise of an impostor.The best explosives player in the task force was Li Tian. He claimed to have received the emperor's true biography, and he was very good at designing and manufacturing various explosive devices. This task naturally fell on him.

Li Tian is also ruthless enough. He used all the nearly a thousand catties of gunpowder transported to Damascus, divided them into twenty horse packs, and then carried out elaborate camouflage and set up a time-delayed explosive device.As for the time of delivery, they deliberately chose the evening, which was the time when the assassins in the stronghold ate, and it was also at dusk. Even if they checked it, it was so-so, and it was difficult to find any fraud.

Facts have proved that the task force's plan was a success. The assassins moved all the added tributes into the castle without any doubt, and they all gathered in it except for the night watchmen to avoid retaliation. Wan didn't expect that the things contained in those packs would be enough to destroy the entire castle, blow them to pieces, blow their souls to pieces, and send them into the dark hell instead of the dream of heaven...
