Chapter 439: Civil strife in Linyi (Part 2)
Anyone who is familiar with Linyi City knows that in Linyi City, there are three buildings that can be arranged side by side, one of which is naturally the palace of King Linyi, the other is the mansion of the powerful minister Mahamandata Duo, and the last one is the complex called the royal house. These three buildings are built close by, among which Mahamandata Duo's mansion is on the west side of the palace, and the royal house is on the east side of the palace.
Both the royal house and the royal palace have the same word "king", and the meaning of this word is actually the same, except that the royal palace is where the king of Linyi lives, and the royal house is where the royal family of Linyi lives. Speaking of which, the royal family is a bit pitiful. Since they were born, they lived in the royal palace before they were ten years old, and after they were ten years old, they had to live in the royal house together. Although the building of this royal house is very majestic and the royal family was also rich and frugal when they lived in it, they did not have the slightest freedom. Even without the orders of the king, they could not even go out.
In fact, Linyi's approach to the royal family is understandable. Except for those who inherited the throne, the other Fan family members must live and manage them in a unified manner, almost like raising pigs. Although some royal families will be given official positions, they are often honorary official positions and do not have much power. In this way, the possibility of other royal families usurping the throne is fundamentally eliminated, and it also provides convenience to other usurpers, such as for Mahamandhagadu.
In fact, the royal family of Linyi is not the worst. Whenever the new king ascends the throne, the other brothers of the new king will be in trouble. They will either be cut off with one finger, their noses or their eyes are cut off. Anyway, they will all become disabled people artificially. It is said that this is also to prevent them from usurping the throne. After all, compared to normal people, a disabled person is much less likely to successfully usurp the throne.
But the so-called misfortune and good fortune depend on each other. At the last moment, no one can tell what blessings are and what disasters are? Although the Linyi royal family has a healthy limbs, they are not necessarily better than the Zhenla royal family. For example, tonight, the five hundred warriors from Mahamandhagadu's mansion soon surrounded the royal house where the royal family lived, preparing to capture all the royal family in one place.
Although the Wang House is a complex, in order to prevent the royal family from running around, the management is very strict. The outside is also surrounded by city walls, and there are soldiers patrolling the city walls. Moreover, the Wang House has only one gate, and soldiers guard it whether it is day or night. Without the king's souvenir, no one is allowed to enter and exit.
The leader of the five hundred warriors is named Qiharu. He is the eldest son of Mahamandhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadhadha
Like General Yitai, who attacked the palace, Qiharo also successfully used a blasting tube to blow up the gate of the royal house, and then rushed in with five hundred warriors. The soldiers in the palace were only guarding the royal family inside. They were not allowed to go out, so the number was not very large. Together, there were only two hundred people, and most of them were concentrated in the city gate. As a result, Qiharo was soon led by slaughtering.
After clearing the soldiers in front of the city gate, Qiharo left a hundred warriors to guard the city gate, and then personally led the remaining four hundred warriors into the interior of the royal house. The royal house is actually equivalent to a small city, and the city is also composed of courtyards of all sizes. The largest and most luxurious ones are all people who are closest to the king's blood relationship today. The further the blood relationship, the smaller the courtyards they live in.
After Qiharo rushed into the royal house with four hundred people, he killed everyone he saw, but they only killed men, and women were not within the scope of their slaughter. However, the fate of these women was even more miserable than being killed, because after the rebellion was successful, they would be given as a reward by Mahamandhaga to the slaves of those who had made meritorious people. At that time, as their royal family, they would probably be even more insulted.
There were more than 5,000 people living in the entire royal house, among which the middle-aged men and some servants in the royal family were more than those of Qiharo and the others, so they were not willing to be massacred and organized to resist. But unfortunately, for the sake of safety, there were no decent weapons in the royal house, so they were not opponents of 500 warriors armed to the teeth. On several occasions, they even assembled hundreds of people to resist, but were quickly killed by the other party. After all, no matter what, they were all ordinary people. Even if they gave them the same weapons, they were probably not opponents of 500 professional warriors.
This was an inhuman massacre. The woman was driven under the city wall and watched the men in her family be cruelly killed, not even the babies who were not yet full month old were spared. Some men stood up to resist, some men knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and some even turned around to escape. But unfortunately, all the people who resisted and begged for mercy were killed. Although the escaped people could escape for a while, they could not escape from the large prison of the Wang House. Qiharo led his people to kill people, and at the same time began to set fire everywhere. Soon the entire Wang House was trapped in a sea of fire. Many people hiding in the house were blocked by the fire and burned to death.
However, when the inside of the royal house was in chaos, there was a direction to the northwest corner of the royal house, and few people would go there normally. In addition, there was a chaos in Linyi City, and ordinary people hid at home. There was no one else on the street except for the men of Mahamandhadha Du who occasionally passed by, so the place seemed particularly quiet.
However, the quiet here was quickly broken by a loud footsteps. Then a group of men in black came from the darkness to the wall of the Wang House. Then several of them took down bows and arrows from behind and shot a special steel claw onto the wall. With a few crisp sounds, the men in black pulled the rope behind the steel claws, and the steel claws quickly clamped the marble on the female wall.
Immediately afterwards, the men in black quickly climbed up the city wall along the rope, then hung the rope to the other side, and then climbed down one by one. After entering the royal house, the men in black immediately took action, broke into one of the larger courtyards, and then killed everyone hiding in the courtyard, then changed into each other's clothes. In addition, they also went to the burning house to burn several holes in the clothes, and their faces were covered with black dust, looking like a group of miserable Fan royals.
"Fan Zhenlong has a brother of his mother. He lives in the largest yard of the royal family. Qi Haro will definitely take people to kill the other party in person. We are ambushing outside the yard, remember not to reveal our identity. Be sure to make people think that the other party was killed by the Fan royal family!" said the leader who has disguised himself as an old man in the royal family. Although this old man is black in appearance, he is strong in figure. He is Yang Lie who came with Yang Jiu, and this time he has a very secret mission.
"I understand!" Jingwei, who came with Yang Lie, bowed and replied, and rushed out with wooden sticks, kitchen knives and other weapons found from the house. There was no more structure in the team, and it looked like a group of mobs.
After leaving the house, Yang Lie and the others immediately rushed to a big house in the middle of the royal house, which was the residence of Fan Zhenlong and his mother. However, along the way, they encountered many fleeing Fan royal families. Yang Lie and the others were not polite to these people. As long as no one else saw them, they would be killed by them, and even women would not be spared.
He Er followed Yang Lie, holding a sharp kitchen knife in his hand. His whole body was smoked black, and his footsteps rushed forward to the team. Whenever the extremely embarrassed Fan royal family passed by, the kitchen knife in his hand would pass through a strange arc. Then he wiped it from the other party's neck, and the person who was hit the knife covered his neck and looked at him incredible. Unfortunately, the artery on his neck had been cut by He Er, and large streams of blood were spurted out. Soon the man twitched and fell to the ground and died.
He Er was lazy to look back at the effect after he took action. Because he knew every reaction of the other party after being hit by the knife, he could even feel the resentful look of the other party when he was dying. But these did not cause any substantial harm to him, and he had long been used to it. In his opinion, these killed people were no different from the cats and dogs on the roadside.
Speaking of which, even He Er himself couldn't believe it. Just two years ago, he was just a gangster on the streets of Chang'an. He made a living by extorting small vendors every day and fought with others at any time. After winning every time, he felt that he was a big hero. But now when he thought about his original life, He Er himself felt that he was both bored and shameless.
If there were no accidents, He Er's career as a street gangster would continue until one day he was beaten to death, but all this was kidnapped by a group of more powerful people and changed.
That day, as usual, he and a few brothers were preparing to blackmail some small vendors' money, but they met their instructors. Later he learned that the other party was Wei Shier and Wei Shisan, who were the people most valued by the great leader. The reason for kidnapping them was because they urgently needed manpower, but they could not recruit people for the time being, so they counted them.
In the following period, He Er and a group of brothers were sent to an isolated island overseas and then received inhumane training. There, he learned various ways to kill, how to use the environment around him to hide himself, and even learned to survive in an environment without food and water for more than a month.
It was there that He Er knew the name of his organization: Jingwei. Behind this name is the best prince of the Tang Dynasty, Li Yan, the King of Qi. When he learned the news, He Er and everyone were shocked. They knew that the purpose of their training was to kill people, and this was exactly what they could not imagine. No one could believe that under the glamorous appearance of Li Yan, the King of Qi, there was such an unknown side.
However, He Er and the others quickly accepted all this because they knew that their families were well cared for and their rewards were extremely generous, enough to allow their families to live a superior life. And they only need to serve the organization until they were thirty-five years old, and then they will choose whether to continue to stay in the organization or leave to live a normal life?
