Chapter 435: Sleepless
Nearly a thousand miles away in the border city, the wind and snow are endless, the lights are not extinguished, several teams of soldiers in the city patrol back and forth, and there are surging refugees under the eaves of the streets and alleys to huddle together to escape the wind and cold, whether they can hold out until dawn to see the will of heaven.
Although the night was deep, the lights of the General Soldier's Mansion were bright, Wu Sangui sat alone in front of the window after sending the little eunuch away, holding a simple map of city defense, which was just drawn by the little eunuch, the drawing line was extremely simple, but it was clear at a glance, and the terrain of mountains and rivers within a radius of more than ten miles jumped on the paper.
The eunuch is not very literate, but this kid can write, draw and talk well, which is actually unexpected, which makes him more and more interested in this little eunuch.
In the courtyard of the governor's mansion, Chang Yu lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, there were too many nerve-wracking things, how to do the salary, whether the grain and grass were transported safely and timely, how to place the reinforcements, and how to resist Dorgon's more than 100,000 iron horses, everything was like a mountain pressing on him.
What's more, the snoring of Wuzhong outside can shake the snow off the house, Chang Yu turned over and looked at the light outside the window with some annoyance, and he could vaguely see the pro-soldiers patrolling back and forth outside the courtyard.
On the way to Ningyuan, he encountered a mysterious assassin, who looked like a ghost, and there was no trace of him, so he had to step up his precautions, and specially transferred fifty people from the Gongzi Battalion, and three henchmen took turns to lead the security.
At this time, there are 20 people outside the hospital who are responsible for the perimeter guard, there are 20 light and dark sentinels in the courtyard, 10 people are ambushed in the left and right side rooms, and Wu Zhong is in charge of the outer room of the bedroom.
However, the person who dares to take the initiative against the governor of the East Factory is not an extraordinary person.
Wu Zhong, who was originally snoring and shaking the sky, suddenly opened his eyes, turned over violently, and at the same time the long knife slashed out, the knife light was like ice, and a black shadow could not be dodged, and the long knife split the window.
There was a loud bang, which was particularly piercing in the dark night, alarming the pro-army inside and outside the courtyard
There are assassins!
Chang Yu, who was shocked in a daze, suddenly knew that something was wrong, rolled directly under the bed, dodged a cold air, hit the man's leg, overturned it, and was just about to lock it, his shoulder hurt sharply, and the man stabbed him a few times like lightning.
Chang Yu was in pain, his hand was loosened, he dodged a knife that went straight to his face, bent his legs and kicked the person away, at this time Wu Zhong had already arrived, the long knife rolled in, the cold winter solstice, and everything breathed.
Two screams sounded at the same time, Wu Zhong took a step back, his ribs were in sharp pain, but he was shot by a crossbow, and he was about to knife again in anger, when the black shadow took the opportunity to drill into the courtyard through the window, and after a burst of angry shouts, it tended to be silent.
Li Tiezhu hurriedly entered the room with a knife and a lamp, and saw Chang Yu leaning against the wall, covered in blood, Wu Zhong covered his left ribs, and looked hideous and angry, eager to eat people.
Chang Yu was stabbed in his shoulder, arm, and leg a total of seven times, and in just a few breaths, the speed of the assassin's attack was simply terrifying.
And the arrow on Wu Zhong's ribs was obviously fired by the assassin in a hurry, and he lost his head because he was injured by Wu Zhong's long knife at the same time, and it was not a big deal to just break the skin, but even so it was jaw-dropping, one hit missed, and he fled directly, and he injured the two masters in a row and was able to escape calmly, what a demon this is.
No matter how high his martial arts are, he is afraid of kitchen knives, Chang Yu smiled bitterly, endured the pain and sat upright and asked Li Tiezhu to medicate and bandage him, the assassin's real skills may not be as good as him, but the elusive means are actually terrifying.
This is a special ninjutsu!
Ninjutsu, isn't this a Japanese thing? Chang Yu frowned suddenly, at this time, it was the transition period from the peak to the decline of the Japanese samurai, many Japanese samurai were reduced to raiding the Ming coast, although there were heavy blows from Qi Shaobao and others decades ago, in fact, it has not stopped for many years, and has penetrated inland.
It's just that I've never dealt with the Japanese people.,Although I didn't beat the Japanese dog when I played K1 in my previous life.,Is it possible to get retribution here? Or is it that it was the samurai of the Wa Kingdom who wandered to the Ming Land who drove them to be bribed to assassinate them for profit.
The so-called thing is only three, this elusive killer has shot at Chang Yu three times, the first time in the camp outside the city of Jizhen, when the little eunuch saw the opportunity early, kicked the assassin away, the second time in the Jizhen governance office, the assassin's whereabouts were recognized by Wu Zhong and fled, and then he was injured by an arrow shot by Chang Yu and escaped when he was completely trying to get out of the city, and now this is the third time, stabbing Chang Yu seven times!
Chang Yu clenched his fists, if there was another time, he would be seriously injured and he would be left behind!
"Can this knife wound really heal in a few days? How did the Overseer do it? "Wu Zhong surrendered to the little eunuch on the day he learned that he was assassinated outside Zhengyang Gate, his hand was severely injured, his flesh and blood were blurred, and it was difficult for normal people to heal in a few months and half a year, but he had only returned to normal in a few days!
It's amazing.
"Of course you can, this is my ancestral healing internal strength!" Chang Yu nodded slightly.
"Can you teach humility?" Wu Zhong was overjoyed.
"Ancestral, ancestral, ancestral! Are you my son or grandson" Chang Yu snorted: "If you can spread it, can you still mess with you?"
Wu Zhong blushed and muttered, "If I hadn't seen the opportunity just now, I would have ...... early."
"What's the matter, invite merit, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's kindness, your pig's head would have been hung in the vegetable market for a long time, do you know!" The little eunuch felt that this thing was starting to make mistakes again.
The news of the assassination of the little eunuch soon reached the General Soldier's Mansion, Wu Sangui was furious and ordered the whole city to search for him, and then led hundreds of soldiers to visit Chang Yu, checking inside and outside the house several times, knowing that this was not a bureau, but a real assassination case, and he was more shocked than angry.
The anger is that someone on his own territory actually attacked the little eunuch, and almost succeeded, Yu Gong he has to be responsible, Yu Private is a slap in the face, and yesterday he and Chang Yu were defeated in a competition, and then Chang Yu was assassinated, what do outsiders think, it is indispensable to say that he did it!
However, what shocked him was that Chang Yu was the commander of the East Factory, there was a palace camp in the open and a Jinyi Weidong Factory in the dark, and there was a big master like Wu Zhong around him, and he himself was even more skilled in martial arts, and he was even unknowingly infiltrated into the room and almost killed, whether this assassin was a human or a ghost!
Wu Sangui ordered the closure of the city and the arrest, and at the same time tried all kinds of ways to say that this matter was definitely not instructed by himself, until Chang Yu told him that this was the third time he was assassinated by this ghost, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, no one wanted to cause trouble in Dongchang, and he was not willing.
So he was very curious, who the assassin was, why he was so not afraid of trouble, what hatred and what grudge he stared at, and he still didn't give up after three times and missed.
He didn't know, Chang Yu didn't know, but thinking about it, it was those people who were behind the scenes, as for the assassins themselves, if they were not wandering warriors in the Japanese Kingdom, they were dead soldiers raised by wealthy families, and for thousands of years, the wealthy families and even the palace and palace raised dead soldiers to kill people and set fire to eradicate dissidents are not many secret things, most of these dead soldiers are orphans, they have been secretly trained since childhood, and the process is cruel and inhumane, so that these dead soldiers act in extreme ways, and they do not die until they achieve their goals.
Chang Yu is not afraid of anyone, and he has the confidence to knock down anyone, but when it comes to assassination, he is a layman, and if he doesn't deal with it well, his head will fall to the ground.
Tonight, Ning Yuancheng didn't sleep.
