Chapter 442: Sweeping
At the same time, the outer city of Qinzhou, a remote place.
Officer Qi Ying is leading a large number of officers and soldiers of the Wuwei Mansion to lurk nearby, preparing to arrest a group of people in a house not far away.
Because just before, he received a secret report from the offline, saying that there were more than a dozen strangers here, with strange whereabouts, often living in seclusion, and seeing crossbows.
Crossbows are extremely lethal and are strictly forbidden for people to carry.
Once this happens, eighty percent of the opponents are either assassins or ill-intentioned criminals.
At this time, King Xuan will be in the future, she will make a big fanfare, and other countries have already discovered that if there are monarchs of various countries with ulterior motives and want to provoke the war of Qin Xuan, then assassinating King Xuan in Qinzhou is undoubtedly the most effective!
At that time, no matter how Qin State explains, the war between the two countries will definitely be inevitable!
Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, Xiao Yuan had already ordered to secretly arrange an invisible line of defense, and at the same time investigate the assassins to ensure the safety of Qinzhou.
Qi Ying is not only highly skilled, but also has a very good set of investigating and handling cases, and has a wide range of contacts.
The connections here do not refer to officialdom, but involve three religions and nine streams, to put it simply, if he wants to check one thing in Qinzhou, if he continues, there will be a lot of local snakes to help.
A group of officers and soldiers, hidden around the corner, looked at the house not far away, Qi Ying asked in a condensed voice:
"Are you sure?"
Beside him, there was also a man in rough linen clothes, who immediately nodded when he heard this: "Don't worry, Lord Qi, what the villain and a few brothers saw with their own eyes is here!" ”
"Good!" Qi Ying suppressed his excitement and immediately waved his hand forward.
With his movements, a group of officers and soldiers stepped forward one after another, some leaned against the walls on both sides of the gate, drew their swords, and some bows and crossbows were in unison, and the place was surrounded in an instant.
Then, an officer and soldier in civilian clothes came to the door and began to knock on the door: "Is there anyone?" ”
"Anyone?"
He kept shouting, and after a while, the door was opened, revealing a gloomy face: "What's the matter? ”
The officers and soldiers squeezed and laughed: "When you pass by here, can you ask for a glass ......of water to drink?"
From the inside of the gate, it was impossible to see that there were officers and soldiers outside, because Qi Ying and the others were ambushed on both sides of the gate.
But before he could give the next order, a terrible howl had already come, and the official who knocked on the door staggered back, his hands covering his belly, his face pale, and his hands were full of blood.
Yes!? Seeing this scene, Qi Ying was shocked, he didn't expect that the other party was so vicious, passers-by just borrowed water, and killed when they said they would!
He stepped forward in an instant, dragged the injured officer and retreated, and at the same time immediately decided: "Attack in!" ”
At the sound of an order, the officers and soldiers on the left and right sides who had already been prepared quickly stepped forward, and several people held sharp wooden stakes together, aimed at the gate, and slammed into them.
With a bang, the gate was broken, and the officers and soldiers quickly rushed in, well trained.
Inside the house, the gloomy man probably didn't expect that there were so many officers and soldiers in ambush outside, and in a panic, he also fled to the inner room, and at the same time screamed: "Enemy attack-"
This is a signal that is only common in the military!
Qi Ying's heart was shocked, and he waved his knife and shouted: "Release the arrow!" ”
After the entrance, the officers and soldiers of the Wuwei Mansion instantly squatted in the front row, the crossbow arrows were at the same end, and the back row pulled out the bow, and launched the first round of salvo.
The sharp arrows struck, dense as rain, and under the direct shot, the man had not yet run to the door of the inner room, and his whole body had been nailed into a hedgehog!
"Enemy attack - run......" he was still stretching out his hand and shouting before he died.
In the inner room, more than a dozen young men were already alert, and they all drew their weapons and swords, all in horror.
But then another salvo followed!
The sound of crackling came and went.
Sharp arrows were nailed to the wooden door, piercing the doors and windows, and countless arrows were shot into the house.
There was a terrible howl, and there was also the sound of clinking weapons.
Inside, the people were clearly blocking.
Qi Ying had a cold face: "Keep releasing arrows!" ”
Under this kind of arrow, it won't be long before there will be no place in the whole house.
Sure enough, with a few miserable howls, it didn't take long for a man to burst out, swinging his sword one after another, cutting off the arrows.
"Keep your mouth alive!" At the sound of an order, the officers and soldiers withdrew their bows one after another.
At the same time, the man jumped directly onto the roof with a little ground under his feet, and ran away.
"Where to run!" With a loud shout, Qi Ying followed closely and jumped up.
He was superb, as fast as lightning, and in an instant, he had chased after the man.
Hearing the movement behind him, the man didn't say a word, he directly took out a hidden weapon, didn't look at it, threw his hand backwards, and at the same time swept his body sharply, and passed another roof.
With a few clanging sounds, Qi Ying stepped on the tiles, his body did not stop, and the war knife instantly hit the hidden weapon.
"Carving insect skills! Dare to get an axe! The rats are not tied up yet! ”
Yes!? Unexpectedly, this officer was so powerful, where did the man dare to make any stop, he immediately jumped off the roof, stepped on the courtyard wall, and wanted to jump into an alley.
But at this moment, a rope swept diagonally, hit the man's leg and wrist, and after being entangled, he pulled it violently.
The man was caught off guard, screamed, fell directly under the wall, and began to be dragged away.
In such a situation, knowing that he was exposed, he could not escape, and while the man was being dragged away, he immediately made a decision, reached into his arms, took out a pill, and sent it directly into his mouth.
When he dragged him to his side with a rope, his face was already dark, and the corners of his mouth were already bleeding.
"This, I committed suicide by taking poison." The man with the rope in his hand said, wearing a brocade robe and stepping on official boots, it was the personnel of the capital guard battalion.
"It seems that these people are dead soldiers." The other person's face was not very good-looking.
This clue was discovered by the Wuwei Mansion, but it was also watched by the Duwei Battalion for a long time.
The two sides collided.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Ying arrived, jumped down, first looked at the dead assassin on the ground, and then looked at the two guards of the battalion, and the fire rose all at once!
"You guys!" He pointed at his sword in a rage, glared and said, "Do you know how much effort these assassins have put in!" Now he's dead! ”
"He committed suicide by poisoning himself." The people of the Duwei Battalion hurriedly explained.
"If it weren't for your sudden appearance! How so! Qi Ying's anger did not abate.
At this time, a large number of officers and soldiers also rushed here.
"Take it for me!" Qi Ying immediately shouted angrily.
"You dare!?"
"Qi Ying! Everyone is working for the king! Serve the country! I'm all guarding the camp, and I'm not easy to mess with! Let's try it today! ”
But Qi Ying's head is angry! Seeing that he was about to catch up with the assassin, but such an accident happened, how could he not be angry!
"Grab it!"
"No!" Giving the order again, the officers and soldiers of the Wuwei Mansion no longer hesitated, moved up and down, and stepped forward one after another.
There are only two people in the Duwei camp, and the other party is so powerful, where can they resist.
