In the former Han Dynasty, it was important to match the government decree with the season, and if it was not in the army, the guilty and severe punishment should be selected in autumn and winter. If this rule is violated, such as the order of autumn and winter in the summer of June, it will lead to disasters, unripe crops, and cold winds from time to time.

But the new dynasty, which has always adhered to Confucian etiquette, issued a decree this year to break this rule.

"The Son of Heaven has an edict, and he will go out to the army, and those who dare to break the law will be beheaded, and there is no need to choose the time!"

With a shout, the crowded market, the unlucky Wu Gong family, except for the good-looking female relatives who were taken by Dong Xi with kindness, were all beheaded for public display, and even children in their early teens were not spared.

More than a dozen heads will be hung on the four gates of Tewu County, as evidence of Dong Sima's meritorious work in suppressing bandits, for a while, the people of the county are looking at the road, according to this Sima's indiscriminate murderous virtue, when he is not enough money and food, which one will he take?

The rich and powerful are still difficult to protect themselves, and ordinary people are caught by stealing grain, and there is nowhere to be reasonable, everyone misses the more than half a month when the fifth Lun was in charge, and it is really rare that the county is quiet and quiet.

After the governor was killed, Dong Xi proudly got on the car and wanted to return to the canal barrier in the south of the county, where the female dependents of the Wu family were all detained, and Dong Sima could not go out of the obstacle for half a month.

Now that twilight is approaching, the whole city has come to watch the beheading, the streets are a little congested, Dong Xi's subordinates unceremoniously pushed the children and old people who were blocking the road into the ditch beside the road, and the convoy slowly advanced on the north-south avenue.

Next to the street are mostly two-story houses of wealthy merchants, one of which is the industrial shop of Wu Gong's family, which has been completely copied by the rebels, and there is not even a straw mat left, but there are two people hiding in this house that should be empty.

Wan Yu leaned against the edge of the window, carefully wiping his bow.

Of course, it was not broken in Changling, and then it was given by the fifth lun, it was a long bow with large weight, strong charge, long range, but low speed. The short bow in his hand is lightweight, and although his charge and range are weaker, he can quickly pull the bow and shoot.

It is a sharp weapon used for close-range assassination.

The person who came with Wan Yu was the seventh biao, and he was a little nervous: "I still don't understand, why don't you use a crossbow?" It's easier to go down. ”

"My crossbow is not as good as the bow, and the crossbow is particular about random hits, once Dong Xi is alarmed, with precautions, it is almost impossible to wind up and shoot again."

That's why Wan Xuan likes a flexible bow.

He glanced at Seventh Biao and found that he was a little nervous, and his hand holding the knife was shaking.

"Will the old soldiers and rangers who claim to have killed dozens of people be afraid?"

"If we do it, we may be surrounded by hundreds of people." Seventh Biao held his hand, he was reluctant to do this, thinking that the success rate was too low, but he was the only one by Fifth Lun's side.

Wan Xuan was not afraid, and from the moment he stood up to defend his son, he put his life and death out of the way, and said with relief: "Bo Yu has already arranged everything, no matter whether we can do it or not, we will withdraw from the back door, blend into the crowd, and after putting on the armor in the next place, we can transform into a soldier who hunts down assassins." ”

This assassination was proposed by Wan Xuan on his own initiative, looking at the three of them, Ma Yuan had courage and determination, and the fifth Lun was full of wisdom, but Wan Xuan felt that he did not play a big role, and he was a little ashamed, and wanted to use his martial arts and archery skills to do something.

"Even if you don't escape afterwards, in order not to involve Boyu and Wen Yuan, the big deal is to die, you can live for more than a year, and you have done a few real things to do Renxia, it's worth it!"

And when it really comes to that point, if the seventh biao is reluctant to die, Wan Yu will help him.

While whispering, Dong Xi's motorcade was getting closer and closer, and the two held their breath and carefully observed through the hole.

Don't look at Dong Xi is just a small army Sima, but the pomp is quite large, followed by dozens of people in front and behind, the cavalry opens the way, and behind the halberd palace, he himself stands proudly on the chariot without a canopy, and the high crown on his head is very eye-catching.

Wan Yu licked his lips, it was now seventy steps, he had to wait for Dong Xi to come thirty steps closer before suddenly getting up and opening his bow, enough to shoot two arrows, be sure to hit!

"It's okay if you don't hit it, as long as it is said that the big thief sent someone to assassinate him, and provoke Dong Xi to go south to suppress the bandits."

Having said that, Dong Xi's actions are too elusive, and if he lives one more day, he will harm Tewu County for one more day, and it is better to die.

"Sixty steps."

"Fifty steps."

The seventh biao reported the distance next to him, and Wan Xuan had already put on the strings, but just when he could get up and assassinate at any time, on the building on the left side of the street, the window was wide open, and suddenly seven or eight crossbows stretched out, aiming at Dong Xi's chariot, and the crossbow was fired in unison!

"There are assassins!"

Under the crossbow shot, Dong Xi's emperor fell to death immediately, and Dong Xi himself was hit by two or three arrows, because he was protected by armor, he didn't hit the vital point, and only shouted for protection in panic.

Jiang rode around the street, the butcher's knife was swung at innocent passers-by, the halberd rushed towards the building where the crossbow was fired, and some people held big shields, gathered around Dong Xi, protected him, and even put a side on his head, the quality of the pawn was still much better than that of Zhu Tu Yong.

Those who assassinated Dong Xi had already fled, and even if one or two people were blocked in the alley, they immediately stabbed themselves to death without the slightest hesitation!

On the contrary, Wan Yu and Qi Biao looked at each other: "Bo Yu arranged for others to do it?" ”

Seventh Biao shook his head: "If there is, I will know." ”

At present, there is a great chaos on the street, and Dong Xi is like a frightened bird, the shield around him is tightly blocked, and the assassination is not possible, so the two have to give up, change into the armor of the soldiers, blend into the crowd fleeing everywhere, and hide in the night of Tewu County.

……

When the fifth Lun arrived at the canal barrier, Dong Xi's wailing and crying out could be heard at the gate.

And Dong Xi's cronies and soldiers were nervous, and even the fifth Lun had to untie his sword and search his body to enter, and as soon as he walked into the house, he smelled a strong smell.

Jun Hou explained: "The thieves are vicious, those crossbow clusters are actually coated with fecal juice venom, and Dong Sima's wounds are festering. ”

Coincidentally, the arrows prepared by the fifth Lun let Wan Yu also coat these good things, but unfortunately they were preempted and did not have time to send them into Dong Xi's body.

In these years, the fatality rate of injuries is extremely high, but I don't know if the bone scraping can be saved, but first you need a miracle doctor.

When I got to the innermost, I saw a doctor with a blanket on his forehead, who was carefully dressing Dong Xi to treat his wounds.

Dong Xi bit an arrow shaft in his mouth to avoid losing his tongue in severe pain, and after wrapping the cloth, he glared at Wu Lun and said, "The traitor who assassinated Ben Sima has been caught?" ”

This guy really took the fifth Lun as a subordinate and gave orders.

Fifth Lun said: "The county magistrate and I, as well as Sima's army Hou Dasuo, still failed to catch the thieves alive, although one or two people were blocked, they all committed suicide." ”

The soldier on the side said: "This is a dead soldier, maybe the thief of Kushui River sent him to assassinate Wu Gong in retaliation for Sima Hui's rape and murder." ”

"Is it really a thief?" Dong Xi poured another sip of wine into his mouth, and the words popped out from between his teeth: "The people who want this Sima's life are not just thieves?" ”

He looked at Wu Lun fixedly, as if he wanted to see him through, and then smiled again: "For example, this county is strong, and his generation also hates me." ”

Fifth Lun frowned: "What does Dong Sima mean...... Zhang's? Is there any evidence? ”

"If you want evidence of the crime, if you don't have it, it depends on whether the fifth Sima is willing to ......" Dong Xi suddenly grinned in pain, lowered his head and scolded: "You quack, and be lighter, be careful that Naigong will behead you too!" ”

The old doctor bowed down to the chief with trepidation, and after applying the medicine, Dong Xi felt much more comfortable, and when he was happy, he rewarded him with a lot of money.

Fifth Lun heard that he didn't ask for any of the doctors recommended by the county commander and Zhang Chun to Dong Xi, so he only asked people to go outside to find a single-family person.

It seems that Dong Xi is planning to deduct this pot from the big accounts in the county, and by the way, he will make another windfall. The fifth Lun responded ambiguously, retreated, and after thinking about it, he still sent the fifth blessing to inform Zhang Chun of the matter.

Zhang Chun is not Duke Wu, if he wants to move him, Dong Xi can't be the master himself, so he has to ask General Tunhu's consent. Regardless of whether the dead soldiers assassinated today were instigated by the Zhang family, Wu Lun still pointed the matter to the thieves in his report to Han Wei.

I only hate that Dong Xi is not dead today, so that Wu Lun is ready to "arrest and bring to justice" at the right time, and Lu Cheng, who has been "arrested and brought to justice", has been unable to throw it out for a long time.

However, the next day, Wu Lun got up and heard a big surprise.

"Dong Sima died last night!"

……

When the fifth Lun returned to the canal barrier, he was faced with the military waiting with a sad face, and the upright body of Dong Xiheng after his death.

Fifth Lun took a look at the cloth, but saw that Dong Xi, who was still arrogant yesterday, died extremely tragically, his eyes were round, his face was hideous, and his fingernails were full of his own flesh and blood.

Jun Hou said: "After Dong Sima applied the medicine yesterday, he was already fine, but unexpectedly, the injury suddenly worsened in the second half of the night, first it was extremely itchy, he scratched his body, pus and blood were like injections, and he cried out in pain. ”

"Sima asked us to go to the quack doctor again, and the old man actually committed suicide!"

"Only a few words were left on the wall."

Wu Lun followed the soldier to the barrier house where the doctor lived, and saw that the doctor himself was hanging from the beam, his feet were still shaking, and the words on the wall turned out to be ......

"Avenge the Wu family and do the right thing for heaven!"

The chill rose from the tailbone to the top of his head, and the fifth Lun was determined, sending someone to assassinate, and if he couldn't do it with one blow, he would definitely try to send a trained doctor in, it was definitely Zhang Chun!

I just don't know how much kindness Zhang Chun has given in the past city, and he can make strong men and doctors die generously, this seemingly harmless old guy should not be easily provoked.

Now that the doctor is dead, it is unknown what kind of medicine he gave Dong Xi, which made the already intractable injury aggravate sharply, anyway, Dong Xi finally died in the early morning after tossing in the middle of the night.

Although things did not follow the script of the Fifth Lun's plan, fortunately, the result was wonderful, with the death of Dong Xi, although the Fifth Lun could not be as popular as the incorporation of Ru Chen's subordinates, but at least he became the one who gave orders.

On the one hand, he urgently sent someone to report the matter to General Tunhu, and Wulun organized a county-wide manhunt.

The hard work paid off, and finally under the report of the kind people, a suspicious man in uniform was captured from the ownerless house in an alley in the county town!

Fifth Lun personally interrogated: "What is your name?" Where did it come from? ”

Lu ...... I...... I do not know. ”

Lu Cheng was still groggy, and "Ma Qu Shuai" suddenly changed his mind after a few days of detaining him, and happily agreed to cooperate, and thought that Dong Xi and Wu Lun should be eliminated first.

Lu Cheng naturally clapped his hands, the two began to drink, Ma Yuan poured him into a big crime, threw him in the car and hid it into the county, and poured wine every day, until today, he didn't see the sun, although he was not very sober, but he still subconsciously wanted to cover it up.

"Won't tell the truth."

Fifth Lun waved his hand: "Torture, you must make him spit out the truth!" ”

So the next day, after General Tunhu learned that he had lost his beloved general Dong Xi, he suddenly heard the report of the Fifth Lun: "After capturing a man, claiming to be a stable vassal Liu Wenbo, his generation is a relative of the Han family, and he gathered hundreds of people in Zuogu, Sanshui County, wanting to collude with Qianghu, mess with the rear of our army, rob grain and assassinate, all of which were done by his generation in conjunction with the robbers in the south of the county!" ”
