Chapter 252 Reversal 4
"We will fulfill our mission!" The guards were so arrogant that they looked like they were dead.
Bai Jinyu kept smiling and stood there for a while, and said with a sigh: "Okay."
A guard walked out from behind her, held the sword in both hands, and half-kneeled in front of her. Bai Jinyu's narrow eyes stroked the white long sword, and praised: "Good sword!"
She took the sword with one hand and turned to say goodbye to the queen: "Empress is waiting here, Lihua is going first!"
After saying that, she waved to the twelve guards: "Follow me!" She was about to leave without looking back.
The shocked queen suddenly shuddered, rushed out and grabbed Bai Jinyu who was about to turn around, and said in shock: "You want to go in?"
Bai Jinyu looked at the queen holding her arm and wrist tightly, and deliberately seemed relaxed: "Yes, don't worry, Empress, it's okay."
After a moment of anxiety, the queen realized that Bai Jinyu's outfit was very different from before. Her hair was changed to a ponytail on her head, and she did not wear any beaded jewelry on it. Her clothes were also replaced with a guard suit...
The queen was shocked and pulled Bai Jinyu hard, pulling her back several steps.
"No! You can't go!"
Bai Jinyu said: "Empress, I plan this matter, I know how to deploy it best. These twelve warriors also need a backbone. Don't worry, I have a little knowledge of martial arts and there will be no problem!"
The queen opened her eyes and shook her head like a rattle: "No, you must not take risks! If something happens to you, how can I explain to the King of Jin!!!"
Upon hearing the words, Bai Jinyu silently, covered the back of the queen's hand, and said softly: "If I don't go, the King of Jin may die."
A short sentence seems to be answering something that is not a question, but it makes the queen unable to argue.
Not far away, drums sounded again, and everyone looked out the wall.
Bai Jinyu said, "Empress, I can't afford to delay!"
The queen retracted her gaze and slowly let go of Bai Jinyu's hand.
Bai Jinyu's sword drooped, smiled at her, and there was no need to say anything else, and turned around and left resolutely.
"Lihua!" The queen called her behind her.
Bai Jinyu calmed down and did not look back. Hundreds of eyes were gathered on her.
"Be careful," the queen reminded: "Also, come back alive!"
Bai Jinyu nodded and said aloud: "It must!" As he said that, he led the way into the tunnel.
The authenticity is about half a person, with Bai Jinyu in front and twelve guards behind, bent inside and walked quickly.
The road was not very dark, and the people who were excavated placed torches at the distance of 100 meters. At this moment, the flames were still burning, illuminating the way forward for them.
In less than half an hour, they met the eunuch who had not yet left the tunnel to dig out. They were exhausted and were all slumped on the ground and said they were so tired that they said they were right. When they saw Bai Jinyu and his group coming, they tried their best to turn their bodies and give up the passage.
The two teams nodded silently and passed by
The tunnel stretched forward endlessly, and people walked forward in addition to moving forward. During this process, Cuizhu's sect rule that was not related to the royal family passed through her mind hundreds of times. Along the way, she confirmed countless times: As a disciple of Cuizhu, she should not interfere in this matter!
She is not only involved in the royal family, but is even trying to save some of the royal family... She also asked herself, why did she participate?!
Some things are forced by the situation. If you don’t stand up, you have to watch the people around you die. She can’t do it if she doesn’t help her!
About half an hour later, Bai Jinyu and the others finally arrived at the end of this tunnel, the granary in the south of the city!
The three palace ladies who knew the way were really amazing, and the entrance of the cave was opened on the edge of the drying ground in the granary.
Clusters of weeds cover the tunnel's exit. Through this deliberately small hole, you can clearly see the piles of grain piles piled up above two heads on the drying ground. These grains were robbed by King Zheng from the surrounding area of Chang'an in the past two days. Bai Jinyu leaned his head slightly and glanced around, and there were really a lot of them. He couldn't help but scold the person in his heart.
The cave was stuffy and we walked for another thirty miles. At this time, everyone was sweating profusely. Now they were slightly closer to the exit. The wind outside blew in, and everyone was relieved slightly.
Bai Jinyu instructed the guards to stop and rest on the spot for a while, and he tiptoed out of the cave under the amazing gaze of the twelve people.
There was no sound of the two armies fighting in this granary. Bai Jinyu understood that this showed that the battlefield was already in the north of the city.
They had just spent another hour in the tunnel. At this time, she didn't know if the battle situation in the north of the city had worsened a little.
Anyway, you have to hurry up!
Bai Jinyu relied on his flexible figure to dodge left and right among the various grain piles, and he found out the terrain and garrison situation of the granary without much effort.
She carefully retreated back into the cave and said to the guards: "This granary is not big, fifty or sixty feet apart. The layout is also clear. Fifty or sixty piles of grain are placed on it in the open air, and some are stored in the two warehouses in the east. When everyone comes out of the tunnel, sprinkle turbid oil when they see the grain. Don't hesitate to light it immediately with the fire sticks. It should not be difficult."
After hearing what she said, the guards showed their confidence.
"But," Bai Jinyu continued: "The guards here are quite strict. When we looked roughly, there were no less than a hundred soldiers patrolling back and forth. These patrols should be on the rotation, so there should be more than double the number of people stationed here. I am worried that the other side is more than several times the number of people, and once we act, we will be caught. We do not have enough time to ignite every pile of grain, so..."
Her eyes became even more solemn, and she said, "I will go out first later, and I will deliberately lead them away. As soon as you see these guards leave, you will immediately go out of the hole. After you go out, you will immediately scatter and get the grain pile!"
Immediately, Bai Jinyu divided the twelve people into four groups and agreed on the direction they were responsible for after they went out.
Although these twelve guards are all men, and each of them is older than the sixteen-year-old woman in front of them, at this moment, they all chose to completely obey her, not only because she is the Princess of Jin with a respectable status, but also because of her meticulousness and confidence in her words and deeds, which brings them an infinite sense of security.
The wind gradually became stronger and the thatch at the entrance of the cave was bent.
Bai Jinyu said: "Be careful when retreating, and don't be discovered by someone!"
"yes!"
"Don't worry, Empress!"
The guards agreed one after another, Bai Jinyu nodded and finally checked: "Everyone has brought a fire note, right?"
Everyone nodded.
Bai Jinyu took a deep breath, held the sword in his hand, and stepped out of the hole again.
This time, she chose to expose herself.
