The prince is very cruel

"Oh my God!" Huangfu Qi was shocked.

Before coming here, everyone knew that this armory was not simple. It was a small treasury that Zhao Tai had run for many years and was not subject to the control of the court. However, no one expected that the inventory of this armory was so terrifying.

Gulu!

Guan Ning swallowed hard. This was beyond his expectations, and his face gradually turned red.

This is all the truth!

As long as they are armed, they can sweep across the entire area south of Jiangnan in an instant, and no one dares to disobey wherever the troops point!

"How many are there here?" He looked at Zhang Yue and finally understood why Zhang Yue was so unwilling to talk about the armory that he would rather die than tell anyone. Even if he did, he would act as if his father had died.

Who doesn’t want equipment like this?

Whoever has it will become a local tyrant.

Zhang Yue looked like he had eaten a dead fly, and his heart was bleeding.

"There are approximately 300,000 bows and arrows, 30,000 military bows, and a total of approximately 80,000 pieces of various weapons. There are fewer pieces of armor, but there are still nearly 60,000 pieces."

"Two thousand chariots and thirty thousand sets of various warhorse accessories!"

"Ladders, ropes, and other tools, about ten thousand!"

"besides……"

He kept counting, and the numbers became more and more alarming. If these things were to come to light, not only would the old emperor be willing to get them at all costs, but even the nomadic peoples outside the Great Wall might take the risk and rush into the Great Wall.

Guan Ning's expectation was that he could only muster an army of 20,000 to 30,000 men, and the configuration wouldn't be particularly complete. Who would have thought...

At this moment, he took a deep breath, suppressed the joy in his heart with all his strength, and warned himself not to get carried away.

"Huangfu Protector!"

"Yes, yes!" Huangfu Qi finally came back to his senses from his shock.

"Let's get started!"

"We have a lot of work to do." Guan Ning looked solemn. The number was so large that the previous preparations might not be enough, but the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.

As long as the things are not shipped out, they are not yours.

"Okay!" Huangfu Qi nodded heavily, and then blew a whistle. A large number of people from the Holy Lotus Sect poured into the underground space, each carrying a box and a large number of ropes in their hands.

"Zhang Yue, how many personal guards do you have?" Guan Ning asked again.

"Five hundred!" Zhang Yue said.

"Lend it to me." Guan Ning looked grim.

Zhang Yue was extremely reluctant. The things were gone and he had to send someone to deliver them himself, but facing Guan Ning, he didn't dare to say no.

"it is good!"

"Xinyue, go check on Gai Yiming's preparations. There must be no mistakes. Once exposed, everything will be lost!"

Lou Xinyue naturally knew the importance of these things. Although she didn't care, she had to consider her man.

"it is good!"

Her white clothes flashed and she disappeared in an instant.

"Brothers, hurry!"

"Hurry up!" Guan Ning shouted and even joined in.

"Yes!!" everyone shouted in unison, and the sound echoed underground.

What followed was a hurried bustle. A large amount of armor and weapons were packed into boxes and tied up with ropes with great effort. They could tie up a hundred pieces, but definitely not ninety-nine.

This busy work lasted until dawn, but there was still a lot of supplies that had not been packed in the underground square.

At this time, the funeral procession began!

The funeral procession involved at least tens of thousands of people and was so horrific that all the forces under Zhao Tai participated in it. The army escorted the procession and monks performed rituals for the deceased. The scene was unprecedented and many people watched.

This also gave a great help to Guan Ning's plan of subverting the status quo. While everyone's attention was focused on the funeral, Guan Ning gave an order and officially took action.

An endless stream of carriages and boxes, escorted by Gai Yiming and Zhang Yue, quickly and quietly headed towards the west of the city, exactly in the opposite direction of the funeral procession.

The whole operation was extremely thrilling and exciting. Once it was intercepted by the army in the city, it would be a failure.

Fortunately, Guan Ning's plan was very meticulous and every detail was considered. The entire route was extremely safe and smooth, and truckload after truckload of supplies were successfully transported out.

But Guan Ning's sense of urgency did not diminish in the slightest, because there were so many baggage, and there were only a few thousand people involved in the transportation, which seemed to be stretched to the limit.

But there is no one who can be mobilized at the moment, and Gai Yiming sent someone to bring the news that the imperial envoy has arrived!

There were not many of them, but the signal they brought was very loud, that is, after the funeral was over, the imperial envoy would immediately take over the entire Guangling City!

Inventory and sealing are inevitable.

Guan Ning felt the situation was urgent and led the team personally to race against time.

A few hours later, it was noon.

"Report!" Suddenly, a scout rushed into the underground square.

"Prince, Lord Gai asked me to pass on a message that the burial is over and all the high-ranking officials and troops of Guangling City must return now!"

"They'll come to the Governor's Palace!"

boom!

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's expression suddenly changed as if they had heard thunder.

This is the area of ​​the Governor's Office!

"What should we do?" Lou Xinyue flashed over.

Guan Ning frowned: "How many more?"

"Prince, there are not many left. It only takes half an hour. We can clear this place out in half an hour!" Huangfu Qi said sweating profusely.

Guan Ning gritted his teeth: "It's too late!"

"Everyone, exit immediately and in an orderly manner. Burn what you can't take away on the spot and destroy all traces here!" He acted decisively and resolutely.

"What?" everyone exclaimed, "Burned?"

"Take action immediately!" Guan Ning roared, his voice as loud as thunder and very serious.

Once the enemy comes back, we won't be able to leave even if we want to. Moreover, once the matter in the underground square is discovered, it will inevitably alarm the old emperor. When an investigation is conducted, if it is discovered, all those involved will be beheaded.

Anyway, most of it has been taken away, so just don’t worry about the rest. Guan Ning will not be blinded by the immediate benefits.

His shout woke up everyone including Huangfu Qi.

"Yes!" They suppressed their reluctance, put down the baggage that had not yet been packed, threw it back, and then left quickly.

Soon, everyone retreated one after another, and the entire underground square was in a mess, with obvious signs of a lot of transportation.

Guan Ning asked people to bring some dry firewood and sesame oil used for torches in the army. Fortunately, there were a lot of these things at the reviewing platform, and they were obtained in an instant.

"You really don't want it anymore?" Lou Xinyue felt it was a pity.

"If you need to fight, then fight. If you shouldn't fight, then never fight!" Guan Ning said with a firm look in his eyes, and threw a fire directly into the ground.

Wow! !

When the torch came into contact with the sesame oil, a one-meter-high flame instantly ignited, and then it went all the way into the dry wood and instantly caught fire.

Not only that, the reviewing platform was also set on fire. This was also Guan Ning's idea. If they were going to put on a show, they had to do it in full. They faked a fire and someone would come to rescue them. This could cover the retreat of the Holy Lotus Sect members. It could be said that it was killing two birds with one stone!

Zhang Yue attended the funeral and had proof of his absence, so he could not be suspected. This chess piece could remain dormant for Guan Ning.
