On the 28th of December, it was snowing heavily.
The weather was gloomy as dark clouds gathered.
The entire sky above Jiuquan County was covered by dark clouds, and the entire sky was extremely dark. Within the county, there was a feeling of dark clouds pressing down on the city, and it was quite stifling.
On this day, in the morning.
Guo Xiaozheng arrived at the military camp early in the morning and had already met up with Xue Rengui.
Guo Xiaozheng had already assigned the missions.
Because during this period of time, Guo Xiaozheng discovered that the First Under Heaven Tower had a total of five strongholds in Jiuquan County. Since they were going to make a move against the First Under Heaven Tower, they had to act at the same time to prevent alerting the enemy.
Everyone acted at the same time.
Only then could they prevent future troubles.
Hence, the thousand elite soldiers under Xue Rengui had already split into five groups.
Everything had been arranged properly.
Guo Xiaozheng and Xue Rengui were together. He looked at the dark sky and waited for a moment before he looked at Xue Rengui and said, "General Xue, it's almost time. We can prepare to make our move. This time, we have to sweep through the First Under Heaven Tower's forces with the momentum of a thunderbolt. "
Xue Rengui nodded and looked at everyone. "Did you all hear that?"
"Yes!"
Everyone spoke in unison.
At this moment, everyone's faces were filled with fighting spirit.
To the soldiers in the military, this was actually a very simple matter. Assassins might be ferocious, but in front of the soldiers in the military and in front of the battle formation, assassins were incomparably weak. There was nothing to be afraid of.
"Let's go!"
Xue Rengui directly gave the order.
Following Xue Rengui's order, everyone quickly moved.
Guo Xiaozheng followed Xue Rengui and headed directly to the west of the city. They had already investigated the First Under Heaven Tower's stronghold, so they just needed to head there.
Although the distance from the north to the west of the city was a little far, the group quickly rushed and arrived at the First Under Heaven Tower's headquarters in less than 15 minutes.
When they arrived at the entrance, the door was wide open.
There were many people coming and going inside. After all, the First Under Heaven Tower was operating outside. Assassins had to accept missions and at the same time, someone had to issue missions.
There were a lot of people coming and going.
Xue Rengui raised his great spear and quickly charged in. As soon as he entered the hall, he shouted for everyone to kneel down and put their hands on their heads, otherwise they would be killed without mercy. After giving this order, Xue Rengui ordered the soldiers to continue killing their way into the First Under Heaven Tower's assassins.
During this time, there were assassins who tried to resist, but in front of the soldiers, these people were unable to withstand a single blow. The assassins who tried to break out of the encirclement were all killed.
The news that the soldiers were coming quickly spread to where Tian Yu was in the backyard.
When Tian Yuyi received the news, he was incomparably shocked.
This was because Tian Yu didn't expect that after half a month, Du Qi would actually make a move on the Number One Pavilion. Before this, Du Qi didn't make any moves and Tian Yu thought that Du Qi had given up on dealing with the Number One Pavilion. Thus, Tian Yu didn't put Du Qi in his heart and continued to do his own thing.
The mission to assassinate Du Qi was still there.
However, no one accepted the mission. After all, it wasn't an easy task to assassinate Du Qi. Even if the reward for a successful assassination was extremely generous, one had to be alive to spend it.
Tian Yu quickly regained his senses. He didn't need to think to know that he wouldn't be able to withstand the assault of the soldiers with his strength alone. Tian Yu didn't have any plans to kill his way out. He shouted, "Su Da, Su Er, come in!"
"Yes!"
Su Da and Su Er immediately replied.
These two were twins. They were around 20 years old and close to 30 years old. Their bodies were incomparably sturdy.
These two were Tian Yu's guards.
When Tian Yu saw the two of them, he ordered, "Let's go. We will leave immediately."
Although the headquarters of the First Under Heaven Tower had a lot of wealth, it was obviously more important to stay alive at this moment. They had to escape from the First Under Heaven Tower first. As long as they could survive, it was more important than anything else.
Tian Yu brought his men and went straight to the bedroom. He lifted the bed and pressed a mechanism at the side. The wooden board under the bed opened up and revealed an underground tunnel.
"Let's go!"
Tian Yu ordered.
Following Tian Yu's order, Su Da and Su Er followed Tian Yu into the secret tunnel. Then, they quickly left through the secret tunnel. Tian Yu quickly left through the secret tunnel. However, Yu Deshui didn't have the chance to do so.
Yu Deshui was originally in his own courtyard. When the soldiers searched for him, Yu Deshui was quickly captured.
Although the army encountered some resistance when they took down the First Under Heaven Tower, the entire process didn't take more than half an hour. Those who should be killed had already been killed. The rest had already surrendered.
Yu Deshui was also escorted out.
When the soldiers who searched Tian Yu's room found the secret tunnel, they quickly came to Xue Rengui and Guo Xiaozheng to report that Tian Yu had definitely left.
Xue Rengui and Guo Xiaozheng went to check it out.
The two of them looked at the empty secret tunnel and frowned.
"Men!"
Xue Rengui ordered. He called for two soldiers and immediately ordered them to go down the secret tunnel to check it out. The two soldiers walked out of the secret tunnel. After walking for a short while, they came out.
The secret passage led to an empty bamboo forest on the opposite side of the house.
This was a remote area in the West City.
Because there weren't many people, Tian Yu couldn't find him when he came out.
The soldiers returned along the secret tunnel and came to Xue Rengui and Guo Xiaozheng. They reported, "General Xue, Military Advisor Guo, we checked the secret tunnel and found that the exit of the secret tunnel is in the bamboo forest not far from the house. Now, it's empty outside. Tian Yu has already escaped. "
Xue Rengui frowned and looked at Guo Xiaozheng. "Mister Guo, now that Tian Yu has escaped, what should we do?"
Guo Xiaozheng was still calm. He said, "Don't worry. As long as the exit of the secret tunnel is in the city, it won't be affected. If this secret tunnel leads to the outside of the city, we can't do anything to Tian Yu. "
"The problem is that Tian Yu is still in the city. He can't escape. When we took action, the four city gates of Jiuquan County were completely under martial law. Moreover, the soldiers stationed at the city gates have already received Tian Yu's portrait. "
"This portrait was drawn according to Huang Shi's description. It's enough for the soldiers to recognize."
Guo Xiaozheng was very calm. He continued, "We already expected that Tian Yu might escape. Therefore, we blocked the road. It's impossible for Tian Yu to escape from Jiuquan County. Especially Military Advisor Liu, he arranged for people to inform all the citizens to report and expose the assassins of the Best Tower Under Heaven. Tian Yu can't escape. "
Xue Rengui heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this.
"General, we've captured a person. He calls himself Yu Deshui and says he's the Vice Tower Master of the Best Tower Under Heaven. "
At this moment, another soldier came back.
He was escorting Yu Deshui.
Previously, when Yu Deshui was captured, he tried to find an opportunity to escape. In the end, he failed and was beaten up by the angry soldiers.
Now, he was obedient.
Xue Rengui was shocked. He looked at Guo Xiaozheng and said, "Mister Guo, I didn't expect to catch a small fish after a big fish escaped. With the vice head of the Best Tower Under Heaven, it might be easier to catch Tian Yu. "
Guo Xiaozheng nodded.
Yu Deshui was indeed a breakthrough.
