At about two o'clock, the sky has completely darkened, and looking down from a high place, the entire Luzhou City is decorated with thousands of lights like starlight flashing in the air. The guards took to the streets according to their respective divisions and began routine patrols, and ordinary people who were still being detained by those who were bumped into on the street at the moment could be killed at the slightest disturbance.

Unlike the darkness of the streets elsewhere, from the Yamen at the top of the middle street to a large mansion in the northwest of the city, it is illuminated by the sergeants standing with torches in their hands every dozen paces on the road, and the road has to turn three corners, so it looks like a "few".

"Bad luck!" The neatly dressed Kaifu Yi Tong Sansi, Huaixi pacification envoy, and Zhiluzhou Xia Gui walked down the steps of the gate of the Shuai Division, looked at the sparse starlight in the sky, and the bright moon that should have been hanging high didn't know where it was covered by the black clouds, and his heart suddenly felt a little unhappy, and he couldn't care about the image of a big man, so he spit on the ground with a mouthful.

There have already been personal soldiers to bring his mount, this is a more than ten years old strong horse, its last one died in Shuzhong, since it was replaced, the aging master seems to have never won a battle. It rarely had a chance to charge, so it survived safely until now.

"Let's go." Xia Gui pushed away the support of his own soldiers, insisted on stepping on the horse, turned his head and looked at the people in the Fuzhong who were standing at the foot of the steps and respectfully sending each other, as if he hadn't remembered anything, he was stunned for a long time, he really couldn't remember, so he shook his head and waved the whip in his hand to give instructions.

But a few hundred steps away, and it's night, even if you put out a full guard of honor, who can you show it? Xia Gui ordered someone to remove all those front driver's guidebooks, and only brought more than fifty personal soldiers to guard the front and rear, in case something happened, the nearly 1,000 sergeants standing on both sides were enough to deal with it, so he never worried about safety.

"Xia Shuai walks slowly!" As soon as he untied the silk straps under the helmet to allow his head to breathe a little, Xia Gui heard a call not far away, and turned his head to see that several people were blocked outside by the martial law sergeant, and through a few knives and guns, a middle-aged man dressed as a civilian official waved his hand desperately at him.

"The night is fast, Ben Shuai wants to go back to the house to rest, tell him to talk about something tomorrow, at this moment the city gate is closed, and a few people are holding Ben Shuai's letter card to send them out of the city. Sue them, this is the last time, and if this is the case, Hugh blames the old man for being ruthless in military law! Although he had never seen them, Xia Gui also knew their identities, so it was not good to make a fuss about such a matter, but he didn't want to let him get his wish, so he commanded with a cold face.

Seeing more than a dozen tall and sturdy sergeants surrounding these few people, Zhu Huan knew that if he continued to hold on, he would only bring humiliation on himself, so he obediently stopped his movements and walked towards the city gate according to the arrangement of others.

Without looking at those people any more, Xia Gui and his entourage of more than fifty riders had already turned the first corner with small steps, and not far from here was Mr. Yi's business inn. In the alley behind the torch-armed sergeants, what appeared to be pitch black was actually lurking in groups of black-clad men, staring motionless, holding their breath and waiting for instructions from the walkie-talkie in their arms.

Jin Ming hid his figure behind a cart full of goods, holding a large bow in his hand, which was not the black lacquer bow of the Song army, but the kind used by the Han army of the Yuan people, which was captured in the battle of Jiankang. Jin Ming had already tried, and his bow strength was barely enough, and a few feather arrows were clutched in his heart, all of which were armor-piercing vertebrae made of stainless steel.

There was a faint sound of hooves on the street, and Jin Ming knew that the main man was about to arrive, so he immediately handed over the big bow to his left hand, and gently pulled the bowstring with the other hand, and put a few arrows on it. The sound of hooves approached and grew louder, and when the first cavalryman appeared in his sight, Jin Ming turned sideways, half-crouched on the ground, and the bowstring was jerked away by him, and the ink-coated arrow pointed forward in an instant.

I don't know why, Xia Gui always has a faint uneasiness in his heart, this feeling can't be said, maybe it's more than sixty years of battlefield experience, and his instinctive reaction to danger. He still remembers that the last time was when he was in Ezhou at the beginning of the year, the former army was rushed to pieces by the Yuan people, and he had this kind of reaction, and at that time he turned around and ran away, what now?

Xia Gui's gaze swept over the faces standing on the side of the street, and when he saw his own figure, he should be able to reassure himself, but why did he feel stronger and stronger. The alleys on the side of the street were so dark that they couldn't be seen clearly, as if there were fierce beasts hidden in them that were selected to devour, Xia Gui clenched the whip in his hand, and couldn't help but want to whip it hard, so that he could leave here.

When the old face on the horse turned around, Jin Ming, who was hidden in the dark, happened to be opposite it, the blazing fire illuminated his surroundings very brightly, such a close distance, so Jin Ming felt a little wonderful, he tried to kill a person for the first time, the big bow in his hand suddenly trembled, and the bowstring made a slight "snort" sound due to the rapid contraction.

When the feather arrow flew over, Xia Gui was raising his arm and preparing to ride his horse, his gaze had already turned to the front, so by the time the sound of breaking the sky reached his ears, it was too late to react. "Not good" These are the two words that popped out of his mind before the arrow, and the astringent sound of metal tearing and being squeezed sounded, Xia Gui felt that his ribs were like being stared at by mosquitoes, and he didn't feel much pain.

Then, the one that flew towards the head was instinctively deflected, and the tip of the arrow smashed into the back of the stainless steel, and the unfastened helmet flew out of the head with such a force that it fell on the stone road with a "bell" and rolled to the side. There was only a moment between life and death, and Xia Gui, who was on the horse, had already realized this qiē, and he didn't have time to say a word, the first thing he did was to take the initiative to roll off the horse regardless of the qiē.

"Do it!" Jin Ming, who secretly screamed a pity in his heart, watched the person on the horse disappear from sight, and the third arrow, which was originally extremely tight, also missed, he stood up without hesitation, and gave the order to start the attack on the walkie-talkie that had already been turned on.

"There are assassins!" Almost at the same time, the pro-soldiers who reacted shouted in unison, and several nearby suddenly pulled the reins and let the front hooves of the mount vacate the air, which narrowly avoided Xia Gui, who had fallen to the ground, and the one behind quickly stopped his horse, and the one in front was also turning his horse's head, preparing to assemble towards Xia Gui, and the sergeants along the street had already rushed to the alley where Jin Ming was with torches.

After Jin Ming's order, the sergeants who had been all over the potential began to act, and the first thing to run out was not arrowheads, but a number of carts, which were all set on fire, and the wooden blocks inside had already been sprinkled with fire oil, and some powerful sergeants pushed this kind of train like this, roaring and rushing into the street.

Attacked from all directions at the same time, Xia Gui's men began to be chaotic, taking advantage of this opportunity, dozens of burning carts cut off the entire street, and all the sergeants who rushed to reinforce were blocked by the fire. Jin Ming in the alley also took out a match and lit the cart in front of him, looked at the approaching sergeants, kicked it hard, and the burning cart "rumbled" up, forcing those sergeants to retreat.

"Enough, everyone listen to my orders, evacuate quickly along the previous retreat, don't fight with it, and repeat, all evacuate!" Liu Yu's voice sounded on the walkie-talkie, Jin Ming looked at Xia Gui, who was surrounded by the sergeants not far in front, they didn't come to kill, and now they have reached their goal, it is a pity that they couldn't kill on the spot, but they can't fight hard here.

Now was indeed the best time to evacuate, the fires had cut off the streets, and the defenders of the city had not yet been alarmed, or had not yet been able to arrive in time. All those who heard the order took advantage of the darkness to sneak into the alleys, and then retreated to the planned assembly area, only a small black shadow sneaked in the other direction, and the two pro-soldiers of the same group looked at each other, shook their heads helplessly, and followed together.

Liu Yu watched this qiē with a high-powered telescope from the highest crossbow platform in the city, and because of the effect of those torches, he didn't need to use night vision devices to see clearly. This place is already quite far away, as the movement over there is getting bigger and bigger, in Liu Yu's sight, there are already several teams of people and horses holding torches rushing there, he knows that it is the patrol in the city, and it is also the fastest reacting force.

Jin Ming led the people from the alley to the back of the street, and they entered Mr. Yi's house through the open back door, and now it was time to take the final step of the plan and plant the whole thing on the head of the tartar. As he commanded, he led the people through the courtyard into the shops in front.

Through the gap in the door panel, Jin Ming could clearly see the situation on the street, Xia Gui's men were still gathered there, and the sergeants with torches were on guard. Several people behind Jin Ming whispered hello, signaling them to get ready, and then removed the bolt that was across it and opened a door panel.

"Push them out and untie them hand and foot." With his words, the people who stayed in the backyard pushed Mr. Yi and his fellows into the yard, and then asked them to stand in a row, untying the rope that bound their hands, and suddenly their hands were free, and Mr. Yi couldn't help but raise his hand to tear off the cloth on his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, he was surprised by what he saw.

Jin Ming and the others in the shop also started to act here, they leaned out from the open façade, roughly compared one direction, and fired the bows and arrows in their hands together. When they saw that the sergeants found out, they rushed over and hurriedly retreated to the backyard.

Mr. Yi stood in the middle of a group of guys, looking at these black-clothed people inexplicably, and then looking at his guys, he was actually dressed up like them, and subconsciously looked down at himself, sure enough, now everyone in this courtyard is dressed up, what is this going to do?

Before he could come to his senses, a group of the same black-clothed people rushed out from the front, and when they passed by his own people, they actually stuffed the swords and bows in their hands to his subordinates, and even he was stuffed with a big bow. Just looking at the eyes of the big man who gave him the bow, Mr. Yi always felt that he had bad intentions.

"Mr. Yi, what should we do?" Mr. Yi and the others, who were at a loss, stood there with knives and guns, just watching the group of black-clothed people who attacked him running out of the back door, and hearing the question of a subordinate, Mr. Yi was about to say something, and a group of sergeants with torches rushed in, making him feel that this matter should not be simple.

"Hmm!" Xia Gui, who fell off the horse, was a little wolf, and when he rolled over, he touched the arrow, and now it seemed to be pierced deeper, so painful that he snorted coldly, and seeing that the situation had been controlled, a wave of anger rose, and with the support of his own soldiers, he stood up in great pain.

"Let's go back to the Division." It was still some distance from home, but it was closer to the Shuai Mansion that had just come out, so Xia Gui easily made a decision, if he hadn't caught the assassin, he wouldn't dare to continue on the road like this, those few arrows were shot too accurately, which made him feel palpitations.

Don't dare to ride a horse again, the helmet was also smashed and deformed and couldn't be worn anymore, Xia Gui could only walk back step by step with the support of his own soldiers, every step felt painful, he was too old, far less difficult than when he was young, only suffered such a little injury, he could barely stand up, Xia Gui hated the assassin more and more.

"The whole city is a big rope, dig three feet into the ground and find out people, I want to see who ate the dog's gall, in this house" Finally arrived at the door of the manufacturing department, Xia Gui saw the cronies who hurriedly came out, pushed away the pro-soldier who was supporting him, stepped forward and put it on his shoulder, and said viciously. It's just that before he could finish speaking, a strange feeling rose again, and he was almost out of strength, and there was no way to deal with it.

A feather arrow drilled into Xia Gui's right temple, and the long shaft of the arrow did not stop until it came out from the other side, and the cronie who was close to him was splashed with blood all over his face, and all the people nearby were stunned by the scene in front of him, and they didn't make a sound for a long time.

"Let's go." The pheasant slave, who was dressed in black and only showed a pair of big eyes, said a simple word, then turned around and led the two personal soldiers into the alley next to the Shuaifu, and disappeared into the darkness.
