Chapter 1726 This is the bandit’s lair

Of course, the soldiers also knew that what they were about to do was beheading.

But he was not afraid at all.

Instead, I felt faintly excited.

Jing Ke assassinated the Qin Dynasty, and Zhuan Zhu assassinated the king's officials. These people have left their names in the ages for assassinating celebrities in the world.

If I could kill Zhao Chen, would future generations forget his name?

Even if it cannot be remembered forever, it would be better to be infamous for thousands of years.

"General, don't worry, my subordinates will definitely handle this matter well." The soldiers handed over to Helan Chushi.

Helan Chushi was very satisfied with the attitude of the soldiers.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have kept him by his side for so long.

When Helan Chushi returned to the camp, he immediately sent someone to find Chen Xiuliang, the magistrate of Hecheng County.

"County Magistrate Chen, my people have gathered almost all the information about the bandits. Tomorrow morning, I will personally lead a thousand people to exterminate the bandits."

"The remaining one thousand people will stay in Hecheng to prevent them from knowing our plan and attacking the county from behind." Helan Chushi and Chen Xiuliang talked about their plans.

It was also to create proof of alibi for myself.

Chen Xiuliang was of course extremely happy to learn that Helan Chushi was going to personally lead a thousand men to deal with those nasty bandits.

Shen Shen held hands with Helan Chushi and said: "General Helan has thought so carefully, I admire you. I, the people of Hecheng, will definitely be grateful for General Helan's great kindness."

"There is no need for Magistrate Chen to do this. If possible, I would like to ask Magistrate Chen to travel with me tomorrow. Don't worry, Magistrate Chen, I will have someone protect you."

"It's just that when those bandits are caught, Magistrate Chen can confirm whether they are those people and whether they have been wiped out." Helan Chushi waved his hand and made another suggestion to Chen Xiuliang.

Chen Xiuliang hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course there is no problem. With General Helan here, I have nothing to worry about. I will meet General Helan tomorrow."

"Okay!" He

Lan Chushi laughed out loud with satisfaction.

…

Early the next morning, Helan Chushi left Hecheng with a thousand troops and Chen Xiuliang, the magistrate of Hecheng County, and went to the bandit's hiding place.

Qin Sanpao got the news and rushed to see Zhao Chen as soon as possible.

"Sir, what does Helan Chushi want to do by leaving a thousand men and horses?" Qin Sanpao didn't understand why Helan Chushi left so many people in Hecheng.

But he still felt that Helan Chushi must have some ulterior secret in doing this.

"Of course it's to deal with us." Zhao Chen smiled lightly.

"Ah?" Qin Sanpao's expression changed drastically.

His expression changed several times, and finally returned to calm.

Qin Sanpao realized that if it was true as Zhao Chen said, these thousand people stayed in the city to deal with them.

There are dozens of people like him, and there is no way to compete with them.

The strength of the two sides is not equal at all.

"Then what should we do now?" Qin Sanpao still asked. No matter what, he still wanted to protect Zhao Chen's safety.

It's just that now that the city defense is taken over by Helan Chushi, there is no way they can leave.

Even if there is a chance to leave Hecheng, there is no guarantee that Helan Chushi's people will not be chasing him behind.

In the wilderness, Helan Chushi would definitely be even more careless.

By the time……

Qin Sanpao no longer dared to think any further.

"Continue to do your own thing, don't worry about anything else." Zhao Chen still looked calm and relaxed.

Qin Sanpao was completely confused.

Qin San

Pao plucked up the courage to ask: "Sir, what trump card do you have, how can you still be so calm at this time?"

"According to your statement, the thousand people left by Helan Chushi will attack us tonight."

"But there are only a few dozen of us..."

Qin Sanpao felt that it was difficult for him. .??.

There is a boundless crisis in front of us, but the old god Zhao Chen is here, looking completely indifferent.

This left Qin Sanpao completely confused as to what he should do.

"Don't worry, we won't be killed that easily." Zhao Chen still didn't give Qin Sanpao any substantive explanation.

With just such a sentence, Qin Sanpao was dismissed.

Qin Sanpao sighed secretly and did not continue to ask any more questions.

Regardless of whether His Highness the King of Han was prepared or not, Qin Sanpao had no choice but to risk his life.

As for whether he protected His Highness the King of Han after his death, Qin Sanpao had no way to control it.

Soon, the day passed quietly.

Night fell in the blink of an eye.

Crane City, like other cities, has a curfew at night.

The place where Zhao Chen and the others live is some distance away from the Hecheng County Government Office.

This is also considered the commercial district of Crane City.

But at night, there was no one here, only the inn's lanterns hung on the pillars, giving off a dim light.

I don’t know what’s going on today. The temperature seems to be a little lower than yesterday. There is no moon in the sky, and only a strong wind blows from time to time.

Not long after, heavy snow began to fall again.

The restaurant keepers huddled around the stove, cooking.

But I didn't feel cold either.

"The weather this year is really weird.

It snows so much. "The restaurant owner cursed.

When he looked up at the door, he saw the shadows of a large group of people passing by the door.

The shopkeeper felt strange. He looked close to the door and saw a huge group of people passing quickly in front of his restaurant.

These people all held swords in their hands, and some of them were wearing armor.

They seemed to be the Cangzhou Army soldiers outside the city.

"It's strange, why did these Cangzhou Army soldiers enter the city so late at night?" the shopkeeper asked in confusion.

"There are probably bandits in the city. Magistrate Chen issued a notice today, didn't he say that there might be bandits sneaking into the city?"

"It must be that bandits were discovered, so the Cangzhou army outside the city entered the city to destroy them." The waiter explained.

"That's it." The shopkeeper nodded.

He thought there was going to be a fight in the city, but he was startled.

Many people living on both sides of the street noticed that the Cangzhou Army had entered the city, but no one took it to heart.

Soon, the Cangzhou Army crossed this street and came to the house where Zhao Chen and the others lived.

Helan Chushi's personal guard came here yesterday, and of course he would not admit his mistake.

Everyone stopped here, and the guards stared at the house in front of them, but found no ambush.

There were only two big red lanterns hanging at the door.

"This is the bandit's lair in the city. Everyone obeys my order. No matter what they see or hear, they will be killed by me."

"As long as they are not ours, kill them all!" the guards shouted to the Cangzhou Army soldiers behind them.

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison, causing the nearby snowflakes to tremble.

But what's strange is that with so many people and such loud voices, no one from the Xuanjia Army in the house came out to investigate.
