Invincible Zhengde

Chapter 457 give you a chance
The night is like water, the moon is like a hook.

The night in Hangzhou is not considered cool, and the temperature with the breeze makes people feel very comfortable.

Zhu Houzhao was walking by the lake with a relaxed look on his face.This is a rare leisure time.

For Zhu Houzhao, after traveling through so many years, there is no leisure time, and some of them just steal half a day of leisure.This is what he looks like now.

Glancing at Yang Lian standing beside him, Zhu Houzhao asked with a smile, "Are the other places still safe? Those people didn't make any moves?"

Zhu Houzhao was talking about other places in Zhejiang outside Hangzhou.

At this time, Zhu Houdao didn't think that if he sealed off the city, there would be no news.

Although the way of message transmission in this era is backward, it is just that the speed is slow, and it does not mean that the message transmission is not secret enough.

Whether it is sending pigeons out or passing the news through other means, Zhu Houzhao does not think that Hangzhou City can stop the news.

So Zhu Houzhao didn't intend to hide it.Because I can't hide it myself.

After the city of Hangzhou was closed, Zhu Houzhao asked his people to pay attention to other places in Zhejiang.Mainly pay attention to the military towns along the coast, and other places with soldiers.

Because Zhu Houzhao knew very well that in Zhejiang, those people were able to encroach on the fields, largely because of the cooperation of the military.In other words, the army in Zhejiang has been completely broken, and they have colluded with local people.

Once the news about what he did in Hangzhou spread, there was no guarantee that no one would do something irrational.

Both left and right are dead, it is better to take a gamble.With a target as big as myself here, it will arouse the thoughts of countless people.

So Zhu Houzhao kept Yang Lian paying attention to their news.Once someone has a change, he can react quickly on his side.

Zhu Houzhao didn't think Zhejiang governor Zhang Xian could grasp the generals and generals here, because it was impossible.

Let alone Zhang Xian, no one can do it, and now these people are only superficially obeying orders.

Zhu Houzhao would not be surprised if there were people rebelling in Hangzhou.It's nothing surprising that those generals will act when they are cornered.

"Back to His Royal Highness, there is no news from our people for the time being. It seems that the place is relatively stable and there is no change." Yang Lian said: "However, the slaves will make people watch them closely, and they will definitely not let them do bad things. "

This trip to the south of the Yangtze River was not a happy memory for Yang Lian.

Things always happened along the way, especially the group of people under him actually made such a big mistake, which made him lose face in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.

If something happens again this time, then I really will have no face to stay in front of His Highness the Crown Prince.

Even if you don't commit suicide and apologize, just find a place to hide yourself.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then said with a smile: "Just keep an eye on it, it doesn't matter if there is anything."

Just when Zhu Houzhao was about to say something more, the distance suddenly became chaotic, complicated, and there were shouts.

Zhu Houzhao was taken aback, glanced at Liu Jin who was standing not far away, and said, "Go and see what happened."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." Liu Jin agreed, then turned and walked outside.

Not long after, Liu Jin came back in a hurry, came straight to Zhu Houzhao's side, and said nervously, "Report to His Royal Highness, there is chaos outside. Someone set fire in Hangzhou City and killed people everywhere."

When he said this, Liu Jin's face was full of worry. He looked at Zhu Houzhao and said, "His Royal Highness, I'm afraid someone is going to make trouble. Why don't you let the servants call some people over? After all, His Royal Highness cannot have the body of a thousand pieces of gold." any damage."

Glancing at Liu Jin, Zhu Houzhao smiled, then turned his head and beckoned not far away.

In the dark night, a man in black leather armor walked over quickly, came straight to Zhu Houzhao's side and knelt down.

The person who came did not speak, but knelt silently.

Zhu Hou looked at the man kneeling on the ground, and asked with a smile, "How long has it been since you fought with me?"

"Go back to His Royal Highness, I don't remember. Letting His Royal Highness kill the enemy is a dereliction of duty." The man said in a very calm tone, as if he used the same tone for everything he said.

Zhu Houzhao smiled, stretched his shoulders and said, "But your Highness doesn't think so."

"Give me a set of equipment, and I will take a good look at it. Who dares to do this with me?"

Liu Jin, who was standing aside, was a little dazed. Why did he feel that His Royal Highness seemed to be looking forward to this moment?
Liu Jin still wanted to speak out to persuade her.

But Zhu Houzhao glared at him directly, and then said: "Go find a suit of armor and put it on yourself, don't wait to risk your life."

Liu Jin didn't know what to say, so she could only change her armor obediently.

Soon someone brought a set of equipment over.

Black leather armor, black helmet, black long knife, everything is black.

Under Yang Lian's service, Zhu Houzhao put the equipment on his body one by one.

Stretching out his hand to hold the long knife, Zhu Houzhao said in a deep voice, "Bring me some more."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." After the man agreed, he turned around and quickly went to get the things.

He knew that a knife was not enough for His Highness the Crown Prince.

Because if the fight is too hard, the blade will curl; His Royal Highness is very strong, so more knives are needed.

Soon someone brought Zhu Houzhao a few more knives.

Glancing at the person beside him, Zhu Houzhao said, "Just hold the knife for Ben Gong. When the fight starts, you can hold the knife for Ben Gong. When it's time for Ben Gong to change the knife, pass the knife to me. Come up."

"Yes, Your Highness the Crown Prince." The man didn't dare to neglect, and quickly agreed.

"His Royal Highness, they may not come here?" Yang Lian said hesitantly: "After all, we are heavily guarded outside. If someone can really rush in, how many people will they have to use? The entire army of Hangzhou City Not enough."

Glancing at Yang Lian, Zhu Houzhao said helplessly, "You don't understand what I said. Did they set fire to the city just to make Ben Gong watch a scene? There is someone more worthy of killing than Ben Gong in this Hangzhou city." The target? They must be coming for Ben Gong."

"No matter what they want to do, since they have already done it, they must be able to rush to the front of this palace. Otherwise, why would they do it? So we just wait."

"Besides, this kind of thing is not difficult to guess. There are heavy troops defending outside, so it can only be a slap in the face."

Zhu Houzhao stood up and looked around, and then said: "They will come from the lake. If there is no accident, there will be dead soldiers outside attacking our garrison soon. These people don't really want to rush in, they It's here to die."

Sure enough, as Zhu Houzhao expected, it didn't take long before there were shouts of killing outside.

Hearing the shouts of killing outside, both Liu Jin and Yang Lian became nervous.

The two looked at Zhu Houzhao, and said together: "His Royal Highness is truly a god. His Royal Highness has given them all their thoughts!"

"It's just a simple art of war." Zhu Houzhao said expressionlessly: "The place we are in is surrounded by heavily guarded soldiers, and it's still the Black Dragon Army of the palace. Think of another way, surrounded on three sides, only the waterway side is not blocked, then you can only come from the waterway."

"Even so. They also know that Ben Gong is a strong general. So they will not choose to fight head-on, so they can only attack the east and the west, secretly. Set fire in the city to attract Zhang Xian's attention, and at the same time mobilize the garrison in Hangzhou to attack us at the same time resident, and strive to attract all the manpower.”

"Wait until all the people are attracted. The real killer will come from the lake. Because if this palace is going to do this, there is only one way to go, and there is no other choice."

"His Royal Highness, let's call some people over quickly!" Yang Lian said eagerly.

Liu Jin next to him also quickly echoed: "Eunuch Yang is right! This servant is going to call someone now."

Seeing the two people, Zhu Houzhao waved his hands, and said helplessly: "I still need you to call someone? Since I have already guessed their method, I have already made arrangements. You all stay here honestly, Don't wander around."

"After all, a sword has no eyes. I don't want either of you two to disappear after the matter is over."

The two looked at each other helplessly, and then they all squatted aside.

It didn't take long before someone ran over.He came to Zhu Houzhao's side and said, "His Royal Highness, there is movement."

Zhu Houzhao stood up.Then he spoke. "Come here first, let's see how good you are. I have trained you for so long, if you let people rush in front of me again, then you will be dereliction of duty."

"Don't worry, His Royal Highness, I guarantee that no one will come over." The visitor bowed and agreed.

Soon, several small boats appeared indistinctly on the lake.

Dozens of people jumped from the boat after it docked.Their movements were very careful, for fear of making any noise.

The surrounding is eerily quiet.

At this time, Zhu Houzhao was sitting in the shadow, holding a long knife in his hand, and looked at those people expressionlessly.

Both Yang Lian and Liu Jin stood in front of Zhu Houzhao, as if they wanted to block the sharp arrows for Zhu Houzhao.

After being pushed aside impatiently by Zhu Houzhao, the group moved forward quickly while carefully observing the surroundings.

Wait until they are all ashore.Suddenly, from somewhere, there was a sound of bow and arrow.

Then there was a puff.A person suddenly fell to the ground.

After this life has passed.There was a swishing sound from everywhere else.

This is not the sound of a bow and arrow being fired.But crossbow arrows.

Then dozens of people jumped out from the ground and rushed towards the opposite side quickly.

Although the speed is very fast, their hands are very steady.Everyone held a crossbow in their hands, and it could be seen that all of them used continuous crossbows, which fired very fast.

Several people moved forward alternately to cover, and six or seven people formed a fighting group.

Those people were all taken aback.But the response is also very fast.

There was no loud shouting at all, but several people rushed towards this side in the shape of arrows.

After seeing this scene, Zhu Houzhao nodded.I have to say that the quality of the opponent is very good.

But it didn't help much, because more people came out of my shadow.

These people didn't hold crossbow arrows in their hands, but they weren't wearing leather armor, they were all black iron armor.All of them were newly cast light plate armor, without the slightest hesitation, they moved towards their encirclement at a very fast speed.

Although the battle looked intense, it didn't last long.

After a round of crossbow arrows was fired, the opponent had already fallen by more than half of the people.There is no room for resistance at all.

Then he was strangled by the infantry who rushed up, and the knife in his hand slashed on the armor of the infantry, splashing pieces of sparks, other than that, it had no effect.

It seemed that they also realized that there was nothing to be done, and the people behind turned around and ran towards the lake. They were about to board the boat and escape.

But at this moment.A group of people walked up directly from the lake, and these people also held crossbow arrows in their hands.Without the slightest hesitation, he flew towards them directly.

Several people stepped forward alternately, firing very fast.

It's not how sharp the equipment they have is.The strength of these people lies in their ability to accurately identify targets in the dark, allowing them to cause great damage.

Liu Jin and Yang Lian looked at this scene with shock on their faces.

They also know that the Black Dragon Guard of His Highness the Crown Prince is not easy to mess with, and can be called a first-class powerful army in the world.But they had never seen the Black Dragon Guard attack, and neither of them had ever fought with His Highness the Crown Prince.

Although Liu Jin followed Zhu Houzhao to the border.But in fact, he didn't go to see the battle either.

Seeing this scene at this moment, the two finally realized what it means to be a first-class and powerful army in the world.
They could tell that those assassins were dead soldiers.He didn't even shout when he was killed, definitely not an ordinary character.

But it is such a character.So vulnerable in front of the Black Dragon Guard of His Highness the Prince.It was simply a one-sided massacre.

Zhu Houzhao stood up expressionlessly.He said with some disappointment: "It's too weak. Originally, I thought I could give me some surprises, at least I could rush in front of me. Now it seems that I overestimated them. A group of mobs are too much for me. disappointed."

No one dared to take Zhu Houzhao's words, because they felt that His Highness the Crown Prince was in a fit of anger.

You know, in order to cope with this incident, His Royal Highness put on armor and took so many knives at the same time.It is to kill them when they are ready to rush over.

But these people have not even walked the shore.Died directly on it.

Who is going to provoke His Highness the Crown Prince at this time?Then no one will die.So no one dared to speak,
