321 Assassination
Night falls, the streets in Yangzhou City are lit up, light up the lights, like the stars, there is a ban on the street in the middle of the night, when the child rings the ban on travel, when the time rings the ban on traffic, during this period on the street walking, was caught immediately after the cane 20 strokes, if it is for the government to send a letter and other official business, or for the marriage and funeral and the private matter of the disease to buy medicine and ask for a doctor, get the consent of the street patrol before walking, but not out of the city.
Of course, all this is only for civilians, there are special cases for people with official ranks, today Xu Ermo and Jin Shangxian went to a manor outside the city to taste lotus roots, so they came back late, at this time it was already three o'clock, and the curfew was about to be imposed, there were no pedestrians on the streets, only the soldiers on patrol, and when they saw the car of the court minister, they did not dare to come forward to interrogate, otherwise they would be looking for death.
"Whoosh!" A figure appeared from the small alley on the street, hidden behind a broken car next to it, dressed in black, blending in with the night, no one could see it at all, and then, more than a dozen black shadows appeared from the alley.
"My lord, here we are!" The man in black at the front of the alley took a few steps back and whispered into the darkness.
"Hmmm! This time, they must be hit with one blow, and they are only escorted by more than a hundred people, so there is nothing to be afraid of! "There was a voice in the darkness, like from hell, very eerie.
Xu Ermo was riding on a horse, talking to Kim Sang-hun, not noticing everything around him at all.
"The general is indeed a talent, fortunately you met the general, otherwise it would be difficult to give full play to your talents!"
"Huh...... I have no talent, and it is also thanks to the general's dislike that he will entrust me with important tasks......" Xu Ermo was also a little proud.
"Be careful!" While they were talking, the shouts of the guards next to them woke Xu Ermo.
When Xu Ermo woke up from his contemplation, he saw a man in black rushing out of the darkness, swinging a knife and slashing at Jin Shangxian beside him, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Jin Shangxian, extremely fast. Jin Shangxian was also frightened at the moment, and hurriedly dodged sideways, just dodging before the knife came to him, but he was still grazed by the knife, and blood flowed from the wound on his shoulder, staining a blood mark, but fortunately, the wound was not deep, but it was just a scratch on the skin.
"Protect your lordship and watch out for the assassins." Feng Shuangli, the accompanying captain of the guard, shouted at the guards and horses.
"Yes......" A hundred soldiers and horses quickly divided into two teams and stood around tightly, heavily guarded.
"Whew!" A sharp arrow broke through the air, and the tip of the arrow pointed directly at Kim Sang-heon on horseback.
"Be careful!" Xu Ermo, who was beside Jin Shangxian, immediately exclaimed, and at the same time jumped up from the horse, blocking between Jin Shangxian and the sharp arrow, staring at the flying arrow with both eyes, the horse whip in his hand waved, and the arrow was shot down to the ground with a bang.
"Killing ......" dozens of figures burst out of the darkness, all of them killed in the middle, these black-clothed people were very fast, one by one the figures shook in the street and constantly interspersed, moving back and forth, gradually approaching the center.
"Whoosh...... Bang......" A cannon shot appeared in the sky, emitting a dazzling flash, very bright.
"Ahh Ahh
"Thieves dare!" At this time, a fast horse galloped from the street, and the person on the horse was Li Dingguo, it was definitely no coincidence that he appeared here, it was originally a big show, a big drama against these assassins, Cao Bianjiao set up a bureau to lure them to assassinate, otherwise Jin Shangxian and Xu Ermo would return so late, this is deliberately giving them another chance, and the so-called Xu Ermo and Jin Shangxian are not real, they are all pretending, just to let them assassinate, Li Dingguo and people have been lying in ambush not far away, as long as they see the warning signal, I immediately rushed over.
"Poof!" Li Dingguo shot out with a long knife in his hand, and with the help of the horse, knocked a man in black into the air, and also sent the knife in his hand into the body of another person.
It was Hao Shangjiu who pretended to be Xu Ermo, and he was furious at the moment, but he didn't expect that someone would really dare to attack them, and shouted gloomily at the moment: "Kill!" ”
The thirty guards in front rushed over together, and began to cooperate with Li Dingguo's men and horses to kill those black-clothed people, and the rest of them still protected Song Shilie in the middle, only he was real, because this guy had a special appearance, and he really couldn't find anyone to pretend to be like for a while, so they didn't dare to act rashly, and they didn't dare to be careless.
"Whoosh......" Just when the guards were fighting with the men in black, another figure sprang out from the roof next to them, like a poisonous snake, rushing towards Hao Shangjiu, and everyone's attraction was attracted by the black-clothed men who were fighting, but they didn't expect that there would be a follow-up move.
"Ah......" Hao Shangjiu reacted immediately, he knew that it was too late to dodge now, the other party's speed was too fast, so he blocked his body with his body, and the long knife in the hand of the man in black stabbed into Hao Shangjiu's shoulder, and he was also in pain at the moment, screaming, but kicked out at the first time, and the man in black didn't expect that Hao Shangjiu was also a strong martial artist, and he was hit in the abdomen at the moment.
"Lao Tzu killed you!" Li Dingguo was furious, this was his responsibility, he jumped up at the moment, swung his knife towards the man in black and killed, the knife in his hand was as fast as lightning, and the shots were all killing moves, wanting to take the other party's life.
These black-clothed people are well-trained at this moment, what they pay attention to is assassination, if they can't hit with one hit, then they will have no chance if they are entangled, these guards are not vegetarians, they are all selected from the guards around Cao Bianjiao, they are the most elite foot soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, although it has been rare to fight for many years, but there is no unfamiliarity with one skill.
"Zheng Hongkui is here!" At this time, Zheng Hongkui also arrived with men and horses, after he saw the signal, he immediately rushed to this side with a thousand men and horses, he is now transferred to Xuzhou General Army, guarding one side, after seeing the emergency signal in the army, he immediately led the army to come, fortunately it is not far from the camp, so it didn't take much time, and soon, those men in black were surrounded.
"Who told you to come, speak up, and spare your death!" Li Dingguo shouted.
Those black-clothed people didn't pay attention to Cao Yu's words at the moment, waving to the point of fighting trapped beasts, with no intention of surviving at all, and it was clear that they wanted to die, because they were dead soldiers themselves.
"Leave one alive, and the rest will be killed!" Seeing this, Li Dingguo was also in no mood.
"Kill!" The army began to fight back frantically, and the men in black were originally not many in number, only thirty-seven people, surrounded by thousands of people, and there was no way to get out of the predicament.
"Die!" Zheng Hongkui also slashed the black-clothed man who was the leader with a knife, splitting his head away, his eyes were red, the other party was so fierce, in less than a moment, he lost more than a dozen people, which made him very angry.
"Want to die? It's not that easy! Li Dingguo also saw that a person next to him was about to commit suicide at this time, so he immediately took the lead and cut off his arm, the hand of the man in black holding the knife flew high, and he suddenly wailed and fell to the ground, Li Dingguo immediately stepped forward and controlled this person.
Soon, the men in black were all cleaned up.
