Chapter 42: The Most Unlikely Assassination

Previous Chapter

……

And so on, after another ten days of rapid marching. Mu Qiuhuang and his party finally passed through the fiefdom of the Marquis of Yunjiu Mansion and stepped into the realm of Beiyu. And just when they entered the Beiyu realm, it suddenly began to rain in the sky, and after a while, it became heavy rain, and the mud on the road was instantly wrapped in horses' hooves. However, fortunately, the overall will of the Blood Phoenix Banner Sergeant is far from being comparable to that of ordinary ordinary armies. Although the rain was heavy and the road was too muddy, the speed of the horses slowed down...... But the group was still hurrying in the heavy rain.

According to the usual terms, if this situation is encountered, Mu Qiuhuang must have ordered camping and resting. He grew up in the military camp since he was a child, and he is not a mean person who does not know how to empathize with his subordinates. But for some reason, although they had already stepped into the Beiyu realm. But the ominous feeling in Mu Qiuhuang's heart did not reduce, but became more and more serious. Because, during the time of passing through the fiefdom of the Marquis of Yunjiu, everything seemed even more abnormal. Although they made the banner clear, it is not enough to say that seeing others riding through their territory wantonly, the cloud dove army did not even dare to let go of a "fart". But in fact, this is indeed the case. The Yun Jiu Army seemed to be deliberately avoiding Mu Qiuhuang, and even Yun Lan, who was interested in befriending Mu Qiuhuang at the beginning, did not appear this time.

"Young master, the rain is too strong, and the sergeants can't even open their eyes when the horses are galloping. Do you want to give the order to rest first and take shelter from the rain for a while......" Remnant Cloud came to the outside of the carriage and cautiously asked.

In this regard, Mu Qiuhuang did not say much. Instead, he directly led by example, got off Gu Chenyuan's carriage, and rode on the horse in the rain.

Seeing this, Remnant Yun hurriedly chased after him and persuaded: "Subordinates damn it, the rain is too heavy, the young master should go back to the carriage." ”

"It doesn't matter." Mu Qiuhuang waved his hand and said, "Brothers can march in the rain, why can't I?" Don't forget, I grew up in the barracks since I was a child......"

Seeing this, Remnant Yun was no longer persuading Mu Qiuhuang. As the leader of the Blood Phoenix Banner, he naturally noticed that Mu Qiuhuang had been ordering a rapid march along the way, so he hit his horse to the periphery of the Blood Phoenix Banner and urged the speed of the Blood Phoenix Banner again.

"Childe ......" Dongxue hit the horse to Mu Qiuhuang.

"You don't have to learn from me, you better go back to the carriage and accompany Mr." Mu Qiuhuang said.

"Childe can stand it, why can't I?" Winter Snow said stubbornly.

At this time, Qingya Daoist actually rode a donkey to Mu Qiuhuang's side.

"Donkey keeper, why are you doing this?" Mu Qiuhuang wiped the rain on his face and said with a wry smile.

"His Royal Highness the Prince is upset?" Qingya Daoist asked.

"Hmm." Mu Qiuhuang nodded, not denying it.

"Woo ......" At this moment, Gu Chenyuan restrained the horse pulling the carriage, and there was a neighing sound of a horse.

"What's wrong with you, sir?" Mu Qiuhuang turned back and asked earnestly.

"It's murderous." Gu Chenyuan muttered.

"Stop, all stop." After Mu Qiuhuang heard this, he shouted without hesitation.

With Mu Qiuhuang roaring, the Blood Phoenix Banner sergeants once again showed their unparalleled horse control skills. Almost at the same time, I saw muddy water splashing, and the momentum of these horses' rush came to an abrupt halt. If you get closer, you can see that the palms of some Blood Phoenix Banner soldiers have been ground out of blood by the reins when they were just Narle.

"Mr. ......"

Mu Qiuhuang was about to ask, but suddenly his ears moved, and he shouted: "Enemy attack." ”

As soon as Mu Qiuhuang's voice fell, it was two "whoosh" and "whoosh" sounds, and two huge crossbow arrows broke through the air, disturbing the falling rain, and came with wind and thunder, and a "bang" shot into the carriage where Gu Chenyuan was, and a crossbow arrow penetrated the carriage and shot at a horse, the horse instantly fell in response, and the blood phoenix flag soldiers on it also fell to the ground.

"Stay away from the carriage." Mu Qiuhuang shouted.

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......" Several huge crossbow arrows came one after another. Not surprisingly, the purpose was precisely that carriage. There was a crackling sound, and the carriage was instantly torn apart by a huge crossbow arrow, and the horse pulling the cart was naturally not spared, it had already been pierced by a crossbow arrow, and the bloody body was still pressed against a broken board on the carriage.

"Dismount and protect the young master."

"Go and find your way."

Remnant Yun also reacted in an instant, and gave two orders succinctly.

The sergeant of the Blood Phoenix Banner took advantage of the kung fu just now, and there were already some people who rushed towards the surroundings, and the rest had already turned over and dismounted, and some sergeants spontaneously surrounded Mu Qiuhuang and his party, layered and surrounded a circle, and used their bodies to protect Mu Qiuhuang in the middle.

"Young master......" Remnant Yun exclaimed.

Although the black armor blocked his face, the great horror in his tone could still be heard. He never thought that on Beiyu's own territory, someone would dare to attack his own young master. This is already tantamount to treason. Moreover, military ballistas were also used. This kind of military crossbow is so large that it is far from being able to be controlled by one person, let alone the number of people required for installation, and it will have to be increased even higher.

"Poof, poof......" The sound of countless feathered arrows inserting into the flesh was heard, followed by the neighing of the war horse falling to the ground.

In a short time, the pathfinders had returned.

"There is an enemy in the east."

"There is an enemy in the south."

"There is an enemy on the west."

"There is an enemy in the north."

"The bows and crossbows used by the enemy are all wolf's tooth crossbow arrows, within the range of one arrow, it is safe for the time being, and the bow and crossbow cannot shoot so far for the time being."

"The crossbow arrows have all been wiped out of the brand, and the source is not visible."

"We're out of range at the moment, and only crossbows can attack."

……

……

Listening to the Blood Phoenix Banner that came back from exploring the path to report the situation one by one, Mu Qiuhuang was furious. However, he was more worried that he could now conclude that something must have happened at home. As they said, the arrows used by the other party were all "inverted wolf teeth", not to mention the huge crossbow arrows that had just shot the carriage...... This "inverted wolf's tooth" is that at that time, in Kyoto, when Xiahou Xuanba's subordinates shot the crippled sky and the earth, the crossbow arrows used were not equipped with elites. Not to mention, there are enemies on all sides these days. If it weren't for Gu Chenyuan, as a sword immortal, who had already entered the heavenly realm and had a keen intuition for danger, he stopped his group of people in time, so that his group of people hadn't fully entered the bow and crossbow shooting, I'm afraid... The consequences are unimaginable. The Blood Phoenix Banner is brave, and it is not a problem to fight ten against one, but all this is based on a frontal battle. And not this kind of ambush. Take the group of Blood Phoenix Banner soldiers who had just explored the path, if they fought head-on, how could they be afraid? But now, before they could reach each other, they had been shot with bows and crossbows.

"Father, what happened to my father?" Mu Qiuhuang couldn't help muttering in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly became distraught, and he actually ignored the danger he was in. His heart was full of worries about his father, Mu Qingen. This is not elsewhere, this is the territory of Beiyu. Although it is only a border, it has also been branded as Beiyu, and over the years, he has traveled abroad, and he can rely on his father's power and fear. But he never thought that at this time, he was ambushed in his own home. It was in the most unlikely place to be assassinated...... This is simply a ridiculous joke in the world.

"Childe ......"

"His Royal Highness ...... the Prince"

"Boy, are you alright?" Gu Chenyuan drank and pulled Mu Qiuhuang's thoughts back.

Only then did Mu Qiuhuang react that his group of people was now in a desperate situation. And that group of people also has the idea of killing themselves, at this time, if they are not careful, their group of people will all die here, and there is no place to bury......

"Young master, there are enemies on all sides. The only solution now is to call for help. Remnant Cloud said.

When Mu Qiuhuang heard this, he wiped a handful of rain on his face, but he didn't speak for a long time.

Seeing that Mu Qiuhuang didn't say anything, Remnant Yun was about to say something to urge, but he was suddenly startled in his heart, and reacted violently. This place is not elsewhere, it is Tingzhou, which belongs to their Beiyu territory. Talking about Bai Ming is far from being a mediocre person, of course, which of the six giants of Beiyu who guards one side will be a mediocre person? But the crux of the matter is here, although the Tingzhou camp is not here, and it is not here that Bai Ming is personally seated. But this matter must also be inseparable from Tan Bai Ming, if there is no Tan Bai Ming's secret connivance? How could this group of people ambush and kill here? Not to mention, the ballista was also called, which was clearly a premeditated assassination. Even...... Remnant Yun's heart suddenly felt a chill, and even this group of people was very likely to be the one who talked about Bai Ming.

"Young master, the current plan, my subordinates suggest that we do our best to protect the young master and rush out. For the time being, quit Tingzhou, return to the territory of Yunjiuhou, and plan for the future......" Remnant Yun said quickly.

At this moment, the rain suddenly became a little lighter.

"Not good." Remnant Yun exclaimed, knelt on one knee, and said in an anxious tone: "Please make a decision quickly, as soon as the rain is light, I am afraid that the cavalry will be dispatched on the opposite side." ”

It seems that in order to confirm the words of the remnant clouds, at this moment, I saw that dense cavalry suddenly appeared in the north, and the number of people far exceeded that of the Blood Phoenix Banner.

Mu Qiuhuang looked fixedly, but he couldn't see the clothes of this group of cavalry at all, and he couldn't tell who they were.

"The subordinates are offended." Seeing that Mu Qiuhuang was slow to make a decision, Remnant Yun stood up and ordered directly: "All of you get on the horse and protect the young master to retreat to ......the Yunjiu region."

"Wait." Mu Qiuhuang stood up and glanced at the remnant clouds. Commanded: "Send a signal, call for help." ”

"Huh?" Remnant Yun was slightly stunned, looked at Mu Qiuhuang carelessly, and reminded: "Young master, ......"

Mu Qiuhuang waved his hand, stopped Remnant Yun's words, and said, "This is Beiyu, it's my home." Assassinated in your own home? Hmph, I'd like to see who's trying to kill me? Today, I'd rather die in my own home than run away and be a lost dog......"

"Young Master ......" Remnant Yun seems to want to dissuade him.

Mu Qiuhuang's eyes changed, and he said in a fierce tone: "My order is never repeated a second time." ”

"Yes, my subordinates are guilty." Remnant Yun answered, turned his head and ordered: "Release the eagle falcon and issue a fireworks order." ”

The order is like a mountain, this is the iron law of the entire Beiyu army. And the Blood Phoenix Banner implements this iron law thoroughly. Once the boss gives the order. Well, even if this command is wrong. They will also resolutely carry it out to the end, even if they die without complaint.
