Chapter 358 Are you worthy?
Hu Hetong suddenly called them over and said he was going to attack Qin Wang Jiang Fan. They were almost scared to death. But now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot.
A few people just hoped to persuade Hu Hetong not to do anything stupid.
After all, he was the King of Qin, the most beloved son of the Emperor of Yan and the heir to the throne. If they touched the King of Qin, they would be courting death.
Upon hearing this, Hu Hetong glanced at the few people and said coldly, "Everyone, I have already sent people to pick up your families. Don't worry, your families will be absolutely safe. As long as Jiang Fan is killed, we will join the South Vietnamese rebels. When the Sixth Prince succeeds to the throne, we can go back!"
"By then, what kind of wealth and glory will not be there? You can think carefully, if you surrender to Jiang Fan, what can you get? Don't forget, you and I were once the Fifth Prince's men. Do you think Jiang Fan will let us go? Rather than letting him take action against us, it is better to strike first."
"That's all I have to say. If you want to go back on your word, don't blame me for being ruthless." Hu Hetong's voice became threatening at the end.
Hu Hetong had been rebellious for a long time, otherwise, he would not have been so eager to join Jiang Zheng's team when Jiang Zheng approached him.
In order to become Jiang Zheng's confidant, he even decided to use Jiang Fan's head as a token of his loyalty!
Upon hearing this, several generals looked at each other with hesitation and uneasiness in their eyes, but they had to obey.
The 10,000 people in front of him were Hu He's trusted men. Even if they had ulterior motives, they would probably be forced to obey.
Once Jiang Fan is really killed, they will have no way out if they defect to the South Vietnamese rebels.
Moreover, Hu Hetong was right. They and Hu Hetong were all the Fifth Prince's men. Now that the Fifth Prince was dead, even if they wanted to join Jiang Fan, they were afraid that they would not be reused and might even be liquidated by Jiang Fan.
If that's the case, why not take a gamble? The Sixth Prince mentioned by Hu Hetong gave them hope.
They immediately understood that Hu Hetong was planning to help the Sixth Prince kill Jiang Fan.
Once the Eighth Prince dies, the Sixth Prince will most likely succeed to the throne. By then, when Jiang Zheng succeeds to the throne, those who helped Jiang Fan take the throne will be able to rise to prominence!
"But... Jiang Fan has 10,000 troops. Can we deal with him with just 10,000 of us?" one of the generals said.
When Hu Hetong heard this, a hint of sarcasm appeared on his face.
"Don't forget, they are now in Guiyun City. There are 90,000 troops in the four city gates. As long as the battle starts here, my people will incite others to rush over. I just need to say that the soldiers under the Eighth Prince have defected to Nanyue. In a critical situation, how can those people tell the truth from the false?"
"When the time comes, let my men kill a few of Jiang Fan's soldiers, and then they won't fight just because they don't want to!"
Hu Hetong had a vicious look in his eyes and a confident expression on his face.
"As long as we can keep Jiang Fan's 10,000 men outside, and wait for us to kill Jiang Fan, these people will become accomplices. After they know the truth, they will have no choice but to rebel with me!"
As soon as he said this, several generals were stunned, with a trace of fear in their eyes. They didn't expect Hu He's conspiracy to be so deep.
This was probably before Jiang Fan entered the city, they had already thought of a plan to deal with him, and they were just waiting for Jiang Fan to enter the city before they could start implementing it!
"But Marshal, what if Jiang Fan doesn't fall for it? What should we do if he doesn't come to the City Lord's Mansion?" said one of the generals.
He was worried that Jiang Fan would not come, and then they would be in a passive position.
"Not coming?! Haha, he will come... I am not going to see him just to irritate him. Do you think he can swallow this insult when he is treated so coldly as a prince?"
"Even if he doesn't come, I will have people pretend to be rebels and surround and kill them! Then I can mobilize the Wu Jing Army to attack together. Kill him in the dark! And I can also drag the Wu Jing Army into the water!"
Hu He had a smug look on his face, his eyes full of contempt and mockery.
He was very satisfied with his strategy and even felt a little smug about it.
He was just waiting for Jiang Fan to come over with an aggressive look to call him to task, and then kill Jiang Fan in the City Lord's Mansion.
Just as he was thinking this, suddenly, a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds came from afar. The countless horse hoof sounds made the entire Guiyun City seem to be shaking.
When Hu Hetong heard this voice, his face became more proud. He knew Jiang Fan was coming.
He felt a little contempt in his heart, thinking that the King of Qin, who was known as the master of scheming, was just like this. He fell into the trap so quickly.
But just as a smug look appeared on his face, suddenly, countless explosions sounded in front of him, and then the outer wall of the City Lord's Mansion was overturned by a huge force.
The trusted army hiding in various places guarding the City Lord's Mansion was startled by the noise, and they all looked at the collapsed wall of the City Lord's Mansion in astonishment.
Hu Hetong and several of his generals watched all this in shock and were unable to come back to their senses for a long time.
Hu Hetong also felt that he might have miscalculated, and that everything shouldn't have developed like this.
Even if Jiang Fan came here to call for punishment, he should still take his identity as the commander-in-chief of the Wujing Army into consideration.
Not to mention that he had come here politely, he also wouldn't have rushed in like he did now, leading his troops directly.
Moreover, all the people coming were cavalry. What made him even more unbelievable was that the wall that was originally used to encircle and kill Jiang Fan was pushed down by something.
"Palace of Prince Qin..." Hu Hetong came back to his senses and opened his mouth to question.
But just as he was about to say this, Jiang Fan, who was sitting on the horse, raised his hand and waved it lightly, and just uttered a word coldly!
"kill……"
As soon as this word sounded, the white-robed soldiers rushed towards the city lord's mansion. Any soldiers who blocked their way were cut in half.
The ambushing Wu Jingjun's expressions suddenly changed when they saw this scene, and Hu Hetong's face was even more terrified, as he thought he had seen it wrong.
He never expected that Jiang Fan would not play by the rules, without using courtesy first and then force, and without too much nonsense, but directly led his troops to flatten the City Lord's Mansion.
Not only that, he also killed people without any hesitation, and the person he killed was Wu Jingjun, without any scruples at all, as if the Wu Jingjun in front of him was an enemy.
Hu Hetong came to his senses and shouted angrily: "Your Highness Prince Qin, are you planning to rebel? You are actually killing your comrades! You are leading your troops to attack the headquarters of the Wujing Army..."
At this point, he hurriedly said: "Wu Jingjun, quickly... protect me..."
Facing Hu Hetong's questioning, Jiang Fan was actually a little angry and laughed. This guy was deliberately trying to kill him. It was obviously him who wanted to rebel, but he didn't expect that he would have the nerve to say that he wanted to rebel! He was the crown prince, did he need to rebel?
