Starting My Treasure Hunting In England

Because there was still some time before dark, Liang En and the others decided to walk around to collect some information and kill time while waiting for dark.

However, considering that his Asian appearance is a bit eye-catching in this era, Liang En lowered the brim of his hat and walked behind without saying a word, while Joan of Arc was responsible for communicating with the people around her.

After walking around for a few minutes, they found themselves near a magnificent palace complex, but unlike ordinary palace complexes, the surroundings of this palace complex seemed messy.

There are often a large number of guards in front of a normal palace, a variety of gorgeous decorations, exquisite carriages and richly dressed nobles coming and going.

But there is nothing around this palace. Everything that represents the nobility and the so-called majesty of the royal family does not exist. There are only groups of ordinary people walking around in simple clothes and holding various weapons in their hands.

This situation also brought a lot of convenience to Liang En and the others. In just half an hour, they blended in with a group of fellow villagers who also came to Lorraine like Joan of Arc, and used the seven-euro bottle of low-end brandy they carried with them to mix with each other. Everyone looked familiar.

Because these militiamen did not have a unified command or even a few recognized leaders, under the influence of alcohol, everyone quickly recounted all the recent situations.

According to these people, King Louis 16 of France escaped from the palace yesterday, but luckily everyone intercepted the king in Valencia and brought his family back to Paris.

It seems that the people we need to rescue or the things we need to obtain next should be related to the Louis XVI family. Liang En sighed and said, The other party is currently being guarded by the National Guard, but it is not easy for us to get close to the other party. difficulty.

The reason why he said it was not difficult is simple, because the other party is currently being held in the Tuileries Palace, and it is very difficult for non-professionals to fully defend such a palace.

So for people like Liang En and others who have special powers, it is not that difficult to infiltrate such a palace.

Because now the streets are full of National Guardsmen from all over the country, and they don't know each other very well. So Liang En and the others easily blended into the crowd and completed the investigation.

As they had guessed before, the guards were not well guarded. Except for the entrance, they could only see some sporadic fixed sentry posts and patrols in the corridor guarding the windows facing the road.

Perhaps due to the lack of sufficiently professional commanders, these patrol posts have many obvious blind spots. If you follow the outer wall, it is easy to climb up from the outside.

On the contrary, the ordinary National Guard members surrounding the area are in some trouble because they move randomly in the surrounding streets, so the greatest danger when climbing the wall may come from them.

After all, everyone was very nervous at this time, so once I was discovered, it would probably be a bullet. In that case, Liang En felt that he could not guarantee the safety of Joan of Arc and himself.

These National Guards are indeed very troublesome. After all, the randomness caused by non-professionalism makes it very uncertain when breaking through them to form a defense line.

After walking around in a circle, Liang En and the others got together and began to discuss the action plan for the evening. The biggest problem in front of him now was the National Guardsmen who were almost crowded in the surrounding streets.

On the one hand, purely from a mission perspective, alarming this group of people may eventually lead to being hunted down by everyone in Paris, evolving into a situation similar to what Zhao Yun encountered at Changbanpo in the novel The Romance of the Three Kingdoms.

You must know that from a realistic point of view, Zhao Yun's stay in Changbanpo in the novel is legendary because it is almost impossible to replicate. Liang En feels that even if he has extraordinary power, he cannot guarantee this.

On the other hand, from the perspective of Liang En and Joan of Arc, these National Guards are obviously more in line with historical development and at the same time consistent with Liang En and their three views, so even if they are just fragments of history, they are not willing to defend themselves against these nationals. The army killed him.

I thought you would support the royal family. After hearing Joan's point of view, Liang En raised his eyebrows in surprise, After all, you were loyal to the king.

No, my allegiance was to France. I was loyal to the king only because the king at that time was indeed the representative of France. Joan of Arc smiled and shook her head and said, This Louis 16 can no longer represent France.

According to her, she would only stand on the side that represents France in this situation, and now the National Guard is obviously more representative of France than Louis 16.

You are right, this group of people is indeed a bit troublesome to deal with, but it is not without flaws. Joan of Arc pointed to the National Guardsmen who were making a lot of noise on the street while sharing drinks and food. .

This group of people is not a formal army, so they often retain the habits of civilians. For example, I found that they drink freely, and no one is responsible for keeping watch while eating.

So I guess they won't keep staring at it like they do now. They probably disperse and find a place to sleep. That's when our opportunity will come.

It must be said that as a former French marshal, Joan of Arc was very keen on observing the army. As the sky gradually darkened, the number of people on the street gradually decreased.

The militiamen began to walk towards some food supply locations, and some people began to get into makeshift tents on the roadside to rest. In short, it looked messy.

By the time it got completely dark around 8 p.m., there was no one on the streets that were still bustling during the day. Only a few people were left wandering the streets.

You're right. The situation has indeed changed. We can take action. Liang En nodded while looking at the empty streets, and then he and Joan of Arc got out of where they were hiding before and headed towards the Tuileries Palace. The direction ran over.

The two men were now wearing dark blue windbreakers with hoods. The reason why I didn’t choose black is because pure black clothing has an obvious silhouette in the night and is easier to spot.

Without attracting anyone's attention, they quickly crossed the streets around the palace, but they did not go towards the Tuileries Palace, but towards the Louvre Museum further east.

As they had imagined before, this group of National Guards focused on the direction of the Tuileries Palace where Louis 16's family was imprisoned. The Louvre had only a small number of guards.

So they easily climbed up along the outer wall of the podium building outside the Louvre, and then quickly bent down and trotted along the inner roof of the building towards the target location to the west.

Although the National Guard had set up some sentry posts on the roofs because they were military commanders, the uneven quality of the soldiers left huge loopholes in the surveillance network at the commanding heights.

Liang En and the others easily passed the most dangerous area by using the plants and decorations around the flower gallery connecting the Tuileries Palace and the Louvre, and then came to the visual blind spot of the Tuileries Palace guards.

Okay, the first step has been successful, now it's time for the second step. After arriving at the first resting point in the reservation, Liang En said in a low voice while taking out the tools from the space. The target is on the third floor, and the guard is at the door.
