At this moment, Liu Juntao and his ten guards met the enemy separately, and the twenty assassins who rushed up from the alley, as well as five assassins including the crossbowman on the long street, also besieged one after another, and the two sides immediately fought in one place.

"Kill!"

At this time, the entrance to the alley near the long street was firmly guarded by three guards, and the crossbowman and five of his men, although they were outnumbered, could not rush into the alley in a hurry.

Therefore, Liu Juntao immediately roared and launched a counterattack with the seven around him, and immediately knocked the twenty assassins in the depths of the alley back one after another, and the two sides immediately started a melee in the alley.

Liu Juntao was already furious, and at this time it was like entering a no-man's land, the Miao ~ knife in his hand was extremely powerful, like a bloodthirsty dragon, as Liu Juntao took seven steps, he actually killed four people and two people one after another, which immediately broke the hearts of the remaining assassins!

Seeing this, the seven surrounding guards were also greatly boosted, and they all covered up and killed, and more than a dozen assassins in the alley were chased and beaten by Liu Juntao and several others!

At the same time, the leading crossbowman on the other side was also shocked when he saw this, he never expected that these officers and soldiers in front of him would be so brave, especially that Liu Juntao, who was simply a man-eating tiger, unstoppable!

By this time, three of the crossbowman's five men had fallen, and one of the three guards blocking everyone's path had also fallen, and the road ahead was still impassable.

This crossbowman gritted his teeth and prepared to retreat, after all, the matter has come to this point, with the remaining dozen or so subordinates now, it is impossible to kill Liu Juntao, and if you don't make it, everyone will all fold here!

"Let's go!"

The crossbowman roared and prepared to withdraw with the rest of his men, but unexpectedly, there were screams in the alley.

At this time, the sky was already very dark, and the deep alley was unusually dark, although it had just been night, but this alley was also completely dark.

The crossbowman's heart suddenly felt cold, and he heard the sound of fighting in the depths of the alley gradually subside, and the crossbowman could only pray in his heart, hoping that it was his men who had won.

"Stand back!"

The crossbowman roared, and took his two remaining men a few steps back to confront the two guards standing in front of him.

At this moment, the figure in the depths of the alley rubbed, and then the crossbowman saw Liu Juntao, who was like a killing god, walking out of the darkness, covered with blood, and the Miao ~ knife in his hand was still dripping blood, which was daunting.

Behind Liu Juntao, the five guards were also covered in blood and walked out of the darkness with murderous energy.

Liu Juntao and the others converged with the two guards at the entrance of the alley, and immediately surrounded the crossbowman and the other three.

"Say! Who sent you? ”

Liu Juntao asked sharply, the Miao ~ knife in his hand was also pointed at the crossbowman, and all the guards around him stepped forward, and immediately narrowed the encirclement a lot.

"Haha! Mr. Liu! I'm waiting for today, but don't be too happy, next time you won't be so lucky! ”

After speaking, the crossbowman roared, and pounced with two subordinates, Liu Juntao did not hesitate when he saw this, the Miao ~ knife in his hand flew up, and directly hacked the crossbowman to death, and the remaining two assassins were also hacked to death by the surrounding guards.

Looking at the corpses all over the ground, the anger in Liu Juntao's heart was still rising, Liu Juntao couldn't understand which side of the DPRK and China would jump over the wall in such a hurry, and actually wanted to send dead soldiers to kill themselves in broad daylight on the street!

At this time, several guards around him were searching the assassin's corpse on the ground, or checking his own injuries, while Liu Juntao frowned, thinking about all possibilities.

Liu Juntao's first exclusion is the civil power in the court, these civil officials do not have the courage to assassinate themselves, if it is a party for personal gain, the party is the same to fight against differences, the civil power in the court and the central government should not give in, but when it comes to seeing blood and fighting directly, these scholars are not qualified enough!

Secondly, Liu Juntao thought of Emperor Jingtai!

"Could it be that Your Majesty is worried that I will secretly support the Emperor Taishang in order to stabilize the imperial power, so he wants to take my life?"

Immediately, Liu Juntao shook his head, if Emperor Jingtai wants to take down himself, he will never use assassins as a strategy, as Emperor Ming, Emperor Jingtai has too many ways to end himself, so these assassins will not be Emperor Jingtai's people!

"Who could that be?"

Liu Juntao was thinking about it, and suddenly heard the sound of dense footsteps coming from the long street, which was flying towards this side, Liu Juntao looked at the blood-soaked long street, and shouted loudly: "Formation!" Formation! ”

Several guards rushed over quickly, protecting Liu Juntao in the middle, and everyone formed a small phalanx at the mouth of the alley, vigilantly looking at the long street at night.

After a while, Liu Juntao saw more than 100 people running out from all around the long street, and these people were divided into two groups, all of whom rushed towards him.

When these horses rushed closer, Liu Juntao and the guards around him breathed a sigh of relief.

These horses are all the Jinyi guards of the Beizhen Fusi, as well as the soldiers and horses of the military department, which are also mixed with the patrol archers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses.

These two hundred centaurs looked at the corpses everywhere, the blood all over the street, they were all dumbfounded, you must know that this is the foot of the Son of Heaven, the first good area, there are dozens of bandits who assassinate the chief military officer of a town in broad daylight!

Among these horses, the first one is Huang Wu, the commander of the Beizhen Fusi, at this time Huang Wu came over unusually nervously, and the Jinyi guards of the Beizhen Fusi also guarded all around, especially the patrol archers of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division were blocked outside, and even the soldiers and horses of the military department were stopped.

Seeing this, Liu Juntao asked in a low voice, "How did Commander Huang know the news?" ”

Huang Wu said in a gloomy voice: "I learned that Shi Heng, the governor of the right capital, had mobilized dozens of good men from various towns on the nine sides to enter Beijing, and I thought it was going to deal with me, so I secretly sent people to investigate, but I didn't expect that all these people were arranged here. ”

"It's him!"

Liu Juntao was furious and asked, "Why did Commander Huang come now!" ”

Huang Wu also said angrily: "I didn't know that Shi Heng, the governor of the Right Capital, was planning to use these people to deal with General Liu, but after getting the news, I was also ready to rush over immediately to find out." But I was stopped by the people of the Five Cities Terracotta Division! ”

"What!"

"Before I got out of the Yamen of the Fusi in Beizhen, I received news that one of my 100 households and the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division fought and died, and I could only go down to deal with this matter, so I delayed!"

Liu Juntao sneered and said, "It's such a coincidence! ”

"Of course it's not a coincidence!"

Huang Wu said in a low voice: "Almost all of the people in the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division are the party of Shi Heng, the right capital governor!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Juntao contacted the reorganization of the Gyeonggi garrison again, and all the doubts in his heart were solved!

The purpose of this reorganization of the armies is to remove from the army the manpower of all the forces placed by the DPRK and China, not only the manpower of the civilian forces, but also the subordinates of the right governor Seok Heng, so as to ensure that the military headquarters can firmly grasp the command of the Gyeonggi garrison!

And Shi Heng obviously can't accept this, after all, if the military power is weakened, it will be even more difficult for Shi Heng to take refuge in and support the orthodox emperor in the future!

Thinking of this, Liu Juntao said coldly: "Since the right governor values this town so much, then this calm should be a courtesy!" ”

After speaking, Liu Juntao hugged his fists at Huang Wu and said: "More Huang commanders, this town will be grateful in the future!" ”

Huang Wu shook his head and said, "Mr. Liu doesn't have to be polite! But today's such a thing is enough to show that the battle between the DPRK and China has reached the point of doing everything, I am really a little tired, and I really don't want to stay in this Longtan tiger's den! ”

Liu Juntao opened his mouth when he saw this, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Huang Wu saw that Liu Juntao was safe and sound, so he said: "General Liu Bing go first, leave it to me here to deal with the aftermath!" ”

Liu Juntao also nodded, and at this time, a squire from the Ministry of War came over, saluted and said: "I have seen Mr. Liu, and I have been ordered by Lord Yu of the Ministry of War, and I have come to protect Mr. Liu and go to the Ministry of War to discuss matters!" ”

After Liu Juntao returned the salute, he left with a few guards.

The more than 20 soldiers and horses of the Five Cities Division next to them still did not disperse, following behind the soldiers and horses, and followed until the yamen of the military department before leaving.

Liu Juntao watched the men and horses of the Five Cities Terracotta Division disappear into the night, his heart was full of anger, and his hatred for Shi Heng and his party deepened a lot.
