Chapter 64: There is a mystery inside

When the two centurians went to pursue the Assassins, Bai Mu came to see that Jiang Chuan was safe and sound, and sent a team of men to search the nearby streets, and dispersed all the onlookers to ensure that there were no more Assassins nearby.

The guards guarding Jiang Chuan also dispersed and continued to maintain a state of vigilance.

"Bai Mu, what would you do if you were an assassin?" Jiang Chuan suddenly asked.

"Escape from the city as soon as possible, of course." Bai Mu said without thinking.

"That's a good point, so now immediately send someone to inform Shanjia, and ask him to send someone to take over all the nine gates of the capital, and no one is allowed to go without the king's order." Jiang Chuan said in a deep voice.

"My lord, this is going to catch turtles in the urn?" Bai Mu was stunned for a moment, and quickly reacted.

Soon, several horsemen and guards went to find the mountain armor with Jiang Chuan's order.

Jiang Chuan only had time to see what happened to the people sitting in the two carriages.

If Xia Junze, the first assistant, unfortunately hangs up, then Jiang Chuan feels a pity at most, and it is not too much of a loss. After all, with his current size and status, there will never be fewer people who are willing to cling.

However, Xia Junze's style is quite appetizing to Jiang Chuan, so the meaning of his life is greater.

Seeing Jiang Chuan coming, a centurion who was guarding in front of the carriage hurriedly came over to salute.

"How? Are people still alive? Jiang Chuan asked.

"My lord, the people in both cars are safe and sound, but the woman in the second car is a little frightened." The centurion replied in a deep voice.

Jiang Chuan was a little surprised, so many crossbow arrows had hit the carriage, how could it be possible that the people inside were safe and sound?

The centurion led Jiang Chuan to the front of the second car, grabbed a crossbow bolt stuck in the carriage with his hand, and pulled it out with a flick of his hand.

"My lord, these arrows didn't go into the car at all." The centurion held up the arrow in his hand.

Jiang Chuan understood, there was still a layer of protection in these two cars, and although these crossbow arrows were powerful, they only shot through the outermost layer of wooden planks.

Curious, he pulled out the long sword at his waist and stabbed it hard at the carriage baffle, and sure enough, he only stabbed it about an inch or two before he encountered a layer of hard obstruction, and he couldn't stab it again, and it made a piercing sound similar to stabbing steel.

It turned out that the car was two-tiered, the outer layer was wooden, and there was a layer of iron plates inside, no wonder it could block the strong bow and crossbow.

Jiang Chuan then understood why this car was a horse-drawn carriage and it didn't look easy, it turned out that there was a mystery inside.

It seems that this is an ancient bulletproof car, and it is estimated that not only can it be protected against arrows, but it is estimated that the current musket can also be protected against it. To be honest, Jiang Chuan really wanted to try it on the spot, but thinking about the current scene, he decided to find a chance to try it privately.

If it can be prevented, there will always be more such cars in the future, and there will always be one more means to save your life.

Remembering that there was an emperor in the car who gave himself a maid, Jiang Chuan picked up the curtain with a sword, and didn't see anyone at once, and then looked inside, only to see that the woman was in the corner of the carriage, curled up in a ball, watching the curtain of the car being opened, he was even more frightened, and his little face was pale, obviously frightened.

"Don't be afraid, it's the king who is here. The Assassins are gone, and they're all right. Jiang Chuan comforted and lowered the curtain.

This woman's identity is unknown now, whether it was the eyeliner arranged by the emperor, and whether it is true or false that she said that she was threatened by the emperor to kill the whole family, go back and let Hei Bingtai investigate it carefully.

Jiang Chuan walked to the carriage where Xia Junze was sitting, and walked to the front of the carriage and laughed loudly: "Old Xia Ge, the assassin has left, are you safe and sound?" ”

Soon, the curtain was lifted, Xia Junze walked out of the car, jumped out of the car, bowed down and said in a deep voice: "The lower officials are out of duty, so that these thieves can take the opportunity to make trouble and make His Highness frightened." Fortunately, His Royal Highness blessed God and was safe and sound. If there is the slightest injury, the lower officials will die and cannot be redeemed! ”

Jiang Chuan looked at him with a solemn face and a sincere tone, obviously these words came from the bottom of his heart, not only did he have a good impression of this Shoufu lord, he waved his hand and smiled lightly: "Xia Ge's words are serious. This king has killed countless people since he raised his army. There are more people in the world who want to kill this king. But I'm afraid that the person who can really hurt this king hasn't been born yet. ”

Although Jiang Chuan's words sounded a little arrogant, Xia Junze felt a strong sense of convincing from the bland tone of His Royal Highness the King of Qin.

He looked at Jiang Chuan's eyes with more admiration, this master may not have changed his face from the beginning to the end of the assassination.

The real thing is that Mount Tai collapses in front of it and does not change color.

Jiang Chuan didn't know what Xia Junze was thinking, but said directly: "Elder Xia Ge, in order to prevent the thieves from escaping, this king has already ordered the Qin army to take over the defense of the nine gates of the capital, presumably Elder Xia Ge will not have any objections, right?" ”

Xia Junze was stunned for a moment, and wanted to say that he needed his own warrant to take over the defense of the city gate, and he also needed to discuss such a big matter with himself first, how could it be so simple and rude?

Jiang Chuan saw Xia Junze's unhappiness, and said with a slight smile: "This matter is reckless on the part of this king, but the matter is urgent, and Xia Ge Lao still has to take care of it." If Elder Xia Ge doesn't want anything unpleasant, he should send someone to inform the guards of each gate with your warrant, so as not to have unnecessary misunderstandings. ”

Xia Junze was indeed unhappy in his heart, but since he had already made up his mind to hug Jiang Chuan's thigh, he would not cause Jiang Chuan's dissatisfaction because of this kind of thing, so he arched his hand and said: "The soldiers of the Beijing camp are weak and loose and cannot be used, and the defense of the capital must be handed over to His Highness's army to take over." The next officer will let people inform the guards of the gates to hand over the defense. ”

Jiang Chuan saw him say this, smiled and nodded, and didn't say much.

When Xia Junze was arranging for the manpower to pass the order, the two hundred-man teams that had gone out to pursue the assassins also returned, bringing with them more than a dozen assassin corpses.

Looking at the corpse of the assassin thrown to the ground, Jiang Chuan asked, "Is there a living mouth?" ”

Bai Mu lifted an assassin who had been hit by an arrow in the thigh and threw it to the ground and said, "Only this one, I was shot in the thigh by the general, and I fell from the roof and fell unconscious, so I didn't die." The others are dead. ”

Jiang Chuan frowned, walked over to the other assassins and leaned over to check them, and found that several of them were bleeding black blood from their mouths and noses, which was obviously a sign of poisoning.

Bai Mu said beside him: "My lord, these people are well-trained dead soldiers, and as soon as they saw that they couldn't escape, they bit off the poison hidden under the root of their tongues. The poison is so poisonous that it can kill people almost instantly. Except for a few who were shot to death by our guys, the rest of the guys committed suicide by poisoning. ”

Looking at these dead people all over the ground, Jiang Chuan was very unhappy in his heart, who trained these dead soldiers behind his back, and actually used them on his head!

Looking at the unconscious guy, Jiang Chuan said coldly: "Take it back, no matter what, ask the black hand behind him." As soon as this king entered the capital, someone gave such a big gift to this king, and this king would never mind having fun with them to see whose means were more ruthless. ”

Bai Mu said in a deep voice: "The last general will definitely let this person open the ** to act as the mastermind behind the scenes." ”

Jiang Chuan thought for a while and said: "This kind of dead soldier is not afraid of death, if it doesn't work, hand it over to the Black Ice Platform for trial, they are professional." ”
