Chapter 1085: One Step Late
The people of the criminal department quickly launched an operation, more than 20 people were divided into two parts, one part guarded the side door and the back door, and the other part broke through from the gate, one of the people who had excellent light skills jumped up the wall and jumped into the courtyard to open the gate, and the others quickly rushed into the other courtyard under the leadership of the leader of the team to catch the head.
This scene made Wang Tanzhi and his subordinates in the hidden place outside stunned.
One of his subordinates said: "This criminal department's head catcher is really fat, this is the Jingwang Mansion Courtyard, not the Technical Academy, so he led the team to rush in?" ”
Wang Tanzhi was also surprised, King Jing is the third son of the current emperor, although he did not hold an official position in the court at this time, but after all, he is the prince of the prince, not to mention a small head catcher, who would dare to provoke him easily? This little catcher who led the team was so bold.
What is surprising is that when these catchers rushed into the courtyard, the gate was immediately closed, and there was a fierce fighting sound inside.
"Si Zheng, do you want to ······?" A subordinate next to him said to Wang Tanzhi.
Wang Tanzhi waved his hand: "Don't act rashly for the time being, let's see the situation!" ”
The others watched quietly, waiting for the outcome of the battle.
After a full tea time, the fighting in the courtyard stopped, but no one came out.
Wang Tanzhi thought for a while, and instructed one of his subordinates: "You quietly touch over and take a look at the side door and the situation behind it!" ”
"No!"
It didn't take long for the men who went to investigate to return, and reported: "Si Zheng, the situation is not good, the arresters of the criminal department guarding the side door and the back door are gone, but the side door and the back door have been opened!" ”
What's going on? Did they all rush in?
After weighing it, Wang Tanzhi immediately ordered: "Follow me in to save people!" ”
More than a dozen people followed Wang Tanzhi quickly out of the hiding place and moved closer to the courtyard, and they quickly rushed to the gate and outside the wall in the night.
Wang Tanyi made a few gestures in a row, and his subordinates were divided into several echelons, covering each other, and rushed into the courtyard layer by layer, and soon all entered the other courtyards.
Lanterns were lit everywhere in the courtyard, and blood was splattered on the ground with corpses, blood, and weapons.
The palace courtyard was surprisingly quiet, all the catchers who rushed in were dead, not even a single wounded, this atmosphere was a little weird, it seemed that the crisis was everywhere, Wang Tanzhi and a dozen people under his command slowly stopped.
The current situation is beyond Wang Tanzhi's expectations, in addition to the corpses of the fast catchers in this courtyard, there are also some corpses, which should be the palace guards, but these people are all wearing night clothes and can't see their identities.
What made Wang Tanzhi feel suspicious was that these catchers died too completely, which was not normal, more than 20 catches were fast, and they died cleanly.
As Wang Tanzhi made a few gestures, more and more than a dozen of his men became more and more cautious, these were all elite operatives who were waiting for the lawsuit, and they all had their own tactical cooperation, with the knife hand in front and the crossbowman in the back or middle.
Everyone was extremely vigilant and slowly moved towards the house in front of them with the patient, and the door behind them suddenly closed with a "clang", and everyone subconsciously looked at the door behind them.
At that moment, there was a slight sound of bowstrings popping open from the windows of the house in front of them, followed by dense arrows shooting out of several windows.
"Puff puff ······" One by one, Wang Tanzhi's men were shot by arrows.
Wang Tanzhi, who was strong in martial arts, brandished a short knife and kept slashing rapidly, and the arrows shot at him were split one by one, but the arrows were too dense, and he had to cooperate with the turn over and sideways to dodge.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen of his subordinates brought by Wang Tanzhi were shot dead, and these were all former prosecutors with high operational experience and combat power, but they died one by one in such a dense arrow strike.
Obviously, these arrows were fired by the machine, and it was impossible to shoot so many arrows in a short time with a human crossbow, but it was impossible to keep firing the arrows fired by the machine, and it quickly ran out of arrows.
The rain of arrows finally stopped, but there were only three people left around the Wang Spy, and the rest were either dead or wounded.
Several black-clothed men came out of the window with blades to kill, and without waiting for Wang Tanzhi's orders, the three subordinates around him immediately raised their swords to meet them, and the sound of "dangdang" weapons rang out.
Wang Tanzhi quickly bypassed the battlefield and broke into the house, and he had to find his family in the shortest possible time.
The courtyard was brightly lit, but except for the battle scene in the front yard, the rest of the place was surprisingly quiet, and the cold lantern light made it seem a little chilly.
With a "bang", Wang Tan kicked open a door, and several adults and children in the room were tied up and sat back to back, these people were his family.
Wang Tanzhi immediately rushed over, wanting to remove the rags stuffed from the mouths of his family, but he was too eager to observe the surrounding situation, and on the way to his family, a barely visible metal wire was tripped by his calf, and with a "click", a bracket made a sound.
A black shadow fell from the roof, Wang Tanzhi looked up, his face was shocked, but it was a square wooden plate with countless sharp blades smashed down, if it was hit, I was afraid that Wang Tanzhi would be nailed to the ground in an instant, and his body would be pierced into a bloody hole with countless sharp blades.
Wang Tanzhi suddenly forcibly twisted his body at this time, and rolled to the side at lightning speed in a few moments, but there was another bowstring sound, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows with powerful strength shot from all directions.
Wang Tanzhi's martial arts are strong, but in this small environment, and the safety of his family is concerned, he can't exert his full strength, and when he is distracted, he is shot through his left shoulder by one of the sharp arrows after dodging almost all the arrows.
"Uh-huh!" He let out a muffled snort, and his body was shot back two steps by the powerful force of this sharp arrow.
Suddenly a bright light flashed, Wang Tanzhi instinctively swung the knife and slashed backwards, but he cut a void, the enemy's body was very flexible, a sword did not stab, the person was close, a series of attacks continued to attack, more than a dozen moves passed in the blink of an eye, Wang Tanzhi kept dodging, the process of aggravating the injury felt that his physical fitness was rapidly declining, he knew that the arrow that hit him was smeared with poison, he was poisoned, it seems that the other party is determined to put him to death, One of his moves, the black-clad masked man who was accidentally attacked was a slap on his right shoulder.
With a "click", Wang Tanzhi's right arm was dislocated by this palm.
In this way, Wang Tanzhi's left shoulder was pierced by an arrow, and his right shoulder was dislocated, which was equivalent to losing his combat effectiveness with both hands, which made Wang Tanzhi very shocked, thinking that he was also a master in the world, and the entire Daqian Empire was one of the few who could surpass him in martial arts.
Of course, this is because he was shot through his left shoulder by a trap before, and the aggravation of his injuries and poisoning greatly reduced his reflexes and flexibility, and the opponent suddenly attacked him, if it was a head-to-head battle, the enemy might not be able to defeat him.
Wang Tanzhi's injuries at this time were not a big problem, but the poisoning made his body function decay rapidly, and he was powerless to resist, and the black-clothed masked man who sneaked up pierced his throat with a sword, searched for him, and took out a pamphlet and stuffed it into his arms.
The black-clothed masked man didn't stop doing anything, and continued to swing his sword, killing Wang Tanzhi's in an instant.
Blood was still dripping from the sword, and the black-clothed masked man checked the corpses one by one, when a large number of hurried footsteps came from outside, and the black-clothed masked man was startled, and quickly got up and jumped out of the door and floated away.
A captain of operations waiting for the lawsuit came to the room with five people smelling blood, and the corpses in one place came into their eyes.
"Boss, look, Wang Tanzhi!" A team member squatted beside Wang Tanzhi and shouted.
The captain quickly walked over to look at the face of the corpse, and determined that it was Wang Tanzhi, and found that the throat of the corpse was pierced with a sharp sword, and the left shoulder was pierced by an arrow, both the throat and the left shoulder were still bleeding, but Wang Tanzhi was not out of breath at this time, he still had a weak breath.
"Quick, the killer must still be nearby, search for me!"
The team quickly dispersed to search.
Wang Tanzhi looked at the captain of the action team waiting for the lawsuit and wanted to open his mouth to speak, but because his throat was pierced, he couldn't speak, and the pupils of his eyes gradually dilated, and he soon lost his breath.
After a while, Jia Yue walked in with a few members of the action team.
The captain had already finished the inspection, got up and saluted Jia Yue with a fist: "Si Zheng, Wang Tanzhi has just been angry!" ”
Jia Yue frowned and said, "You killed it?" ”
"It's not! When his subordinates arrived, Wang Tanzhi was already seriously injured, and there was only one breath left, the murderer had left before his subordinates and others arrived, and his subordinates sent someone to search, hoping that the other party was still in the courtyard! ”
Jia Yue walked to Wang Tanzhi's corpse and looked at it, and found that there was a large nail board on the ground in the room, and there were many arrows stuck in the surrounding walls, he got up and said: "It seems that someone has worked hard to kill Wang Tanzhi's mouth, and has arranged so many hidden arrows in this courtyard!" ”
The captain hugged his fists and said: "What Si Zheng said is good, the subordinates only checked Wang Tanzhi's corpse, the fatal wound on his body should be the sword of the throat, the injury to his left shoulder is not serious, and the right arm is dislocated, which was caused by the heavy blow of the palm, and he was also poisoned, it should be the murderer who smeared the poison on the arrow, and after the poisoning, his strength quickly dissipated, unable to resist the enemy's attack!" ”
Jia Yue nodded and said: "Wang Tanzhi himself is a person with high martial arts, there are not many people in the world who can kill him head-on in such a short time, if the other party does not use this method, it is almost impossible to succeed!" ”
At this time, several subordinate team members who went outside to search objected one by one, and reported that they had found nothing and that there was no trace of the murderer.
Jia Yue immediately ordered: "Carefully count the corpses, do a good job of identification, and find out the identities of these people who fought with Wang Tanzhi and his men as soon as possible!" ”
An action captain said, "Si Zheng, do you still need to check this?" This is King Jing's courtyard, these people must be from his house, let's report this matter directly to the emperor, and let them solve it within the royal family! ”
