Chapter 469: Assassination of the Prince
Eisenstadt in Lower Austria was a frequent area for Hungarian cavalry raids, and local farmers could only rely on monasteries to protect themselves. And it also reduced Albrecht's income.
In order to frighten Hungary, the Vienna League assembled its troops and prepared to give Hungary some color. The target was Pozzoni, where the prince was. And it's not like they haven't made any progress in the past few years. They directly ordered 120 Genoa fire portal guns from Genoa and equipped them with them, so that even if they lose, it won't be ugly.
But the prince's side is not bad either. At this time, there are still 6,000 black troops and 2,000 people following him to respond to the enemy. Moreover, the city of Pozzoni has solid defenses and sufficient supplies, so it is unlikely that the city can be breached.
"Are you ready?"
Leopold said to the 20 assassins in front of him that he had also spent a lot of money this time. The Roman emperor was already terrible enough, but if Prince Pozzoni was included, he would not be alive. No, these two must go to one.
The Roman Emperor and the others did not dare, not to mention the heavy defenses of the palace, and in the current situation, they were not sure whether they would kill the emperor themselves or the emperor would kill them. I heard that a person once successfully sneaked into the palace, and then nothing happened.
Later, two more people sneaked in. This time one person came back, but he came back with missing arms and legs and was blind. Four teeth were missing, and there were words carved with a knife on his back.
"You don't have to come one by one from now on, just come all. The palace can accommodate you. I'm also going to discuss with you how to assassinate me."
Who dares to go here? They are assassins. They have never seen anything before, but this is the first time they have seen such a terrifying monarch. And I heard from the survivor that he sneaked into the palace very smoothly, and then arrived at the emperor's bedroom. He was about to take action, but suddenly there was a light next to him, and something was handed to him. He took it thinking it was from his partner, and was ready to let him I put out the candle and found that I was holding an ear.
He quickly turned around to look, and his partner who was supposed to be next to him turned into another person. He was knocked unconscious by the other party before he could recover. When he woke up, he found himself in a dark house with a richly dressed man looking at him.
Then there was the last thing he wanted to think about. The emperor acted completely out of common sense. He didn't want to get anything out of his mouth from the beginning. He just wanted to torture him.
At first it was simple torture to extract a confession, but he was very tough and didn't say a word. Later, the style of painting became strange. Who would take a large amount of precious glass and scratch it with a knife? Rich people don't have such luxury.
The most important thing is that his ears can't stand it, and he starts torturing people without saying a word. Fortunately, it only ended after scraping off 10 yuan, and then...
He didn't want to say anything next. It was so perverted that the emperor actually asked people to play his penis, and he had to play it for an hour. No criminal law can be as vicious as this.
This directly caused serious trauma to his soul. They all said that the Roman Emperor was powerful, but they did not say that the other party was so perverted. Can you imagine a person staying in a dark room, with water dripping from time to time on his head; or depriving you of sleep for a few days, and within five days, his spirit collapsed and he lost everything he knew? He told everything he knew, including that they had a headquarters in Adrian, specific personnel, numbers, plans, etc.
Not only that, the emperor also asked him to watch how the other two people disappeared. The specific process was simply more terrifying than them. Even if 100 heretics came here to insult him, they would not be as scared as he is now.
Listening to this man's story, no one wanted to go. They understood that the Roman Emperor was a pervert. No wonder they were able to enter the palace smoothly before, but it turned out to be a trap. This news let everyone in the assassination circle know that bounties are not so easy to get.
So even if the reward for infiltrating the Royal Palace was increased to 100,000 gold coins, no one would claim it. After all, no matter how high the reward was, it would have to be rewarded with a flower of life. Moreover, they will have to go together when performing missions in the future. One person doesn’t know what will happen to him.
But there were still a few who were determined to go there. After all, success would lead to wealth that could never be spent in a lifetime, but none of them came back. However, there were a few stews delivered in their name, and they tasted pretty good. The disappearance of the other party has also become their unsolved mystery.
This time to assassinate Prince Pozzoni, after careful consideration and long-term visits, they believed that this time they could succeed. They carefully observed the prince's castle and found that it still used the same design as in Western Europe, with the toilet outside and the pipes underneath.
Although they really didn't want to do it, they had no choice but to hold their noses and do it for the sake of the bonus. In order to escape unscathed, they still traveled together in several groups.
"Everyone, if we succeed this time, we will just quit and go elsewhere with the bounty."
The leader told the younger brothers about their fantasy after success. After all, it was not easy to get such a job that paid quickly, so naturally he stopped after doing it once.
"I hope so. I heard that the Romanian one is preparing to leave. We must take action as soon as possible, otherwise we don't know how the Romanian one will come to us."
When it comes to Peter, everyone is a little scared. Although they have never seen him, the reputation of this emperor has spread throughout Europe. The spy circle is limited to inquiring about information in Constantinople. As for the palace, whether it is No matter how tempted you are, you will never give up. Who knows if the emperor has any other ways to torture people.
They entered Pozzoni disguised as ordinary people, trying to minimize their presence along the way. Then they waited for the night, and one by one they climbed up the stinky toilet pipe.
"Well, the prince likes to be clean. This place is not as smelly as other places."
"Could it be that the prince is constipated?"
The psychological pressure on everyone was reduced. After all, the prince was not the Roman emperor. They could just kill him and leave.
They finally came to the prince's bedroom, and when they saw the bulge on the bed, they were sure it was the prince. Then without using his hands or feet, he directly stabbed the bed with a short knife. After a while, the blood dyed the quilt red.
"We succeeded"
Everyone rejoiced that this was their first mission and they were successful.
"Haha, one hundred thousand gold coins, here we come."
Before they could finish their joy, the door suddenly opened and a group of soldiers rushed in and captured them. At this time, they were completely confused as to why they came so quickly.
"They killed the prince," a soldier suddenly shouted.
These guards were all the prince's fans. They had finally been selected to become guards. But when this happened, they killed their beloved prince and beat him up. The screams of the killers resounded throughout the castle, but no one else heard them. It seemed that the soundproofing of the castle was good.
