Chapter 67: Assassination

With the retreat of the Xiliang army, the sound of fighting in Xicheng became smaller and smaller. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Yang Zhen, now the opportunity has come. Don't take the opportunity to chase and kill the Xiliang army, beat the water dogs, and serve the court. Zhong Xuan gently stroked his gray beard, and a trace of murder flashed in his slightly squinted eyes. Listening to Zhong Xuan's words, Yang Zhen felt like eating a fly, not to mention how uncomfortable it was. Go out of the city and chase it, it will definitely be nine deaths; Don't go out of the city, as soon as you put on the hat of rebellion, you will definitely die.

There was a cheer on the city wall, not only to be happy to keep Chang'an, but also to shout for their own survival, and everyone swept away the fear and boredom in their hearts. Yang Zhen was in a dilemma and hesitated.

Zhong Miao took two steps back, "It seems that you still came here to rebel, General Yu, you bad people can handle this kind of thing easily, so you should come." ”

"Where the duty lies." Yu Bin waved his hand, and the bad guys pulled out their waist knives one after another, surrounding Yang Zhen and his party. A drop of cold sweat slowly flowed down from Yang Zhen's sideburns, and the sweat on his back was like flowing water, and he wanted to fight hard and fight out of the city, there was still a chance of livelihood, otherwise he would become a dead soul under the knife.

The gate of the straight city opened, and Yang Zhen rushed out with the Yang family. The road from the Zhicheng Gate to the West City Gate was full of corpses, and the smell of blood and burnt fire continued to pour into people's nostrils, making people very disgusting. Even so, the Yang family's speed did not slow down at all, because of the cold light on the inner city wall.

Rushed out of the West City Gate for a long time, but did not find that there was a Xiliang army, Yang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, and prepared to let his subordinates shout a few voices, and return to Chang'an City after performing a scene. At this moment, shouts of killing broke out all around, and the black-armored and gray-robed Xiliang army surrounded them, and the leader was Ma Dai.

Yang Zhen didn't mention how bitter he was, these people under him were good at farming, but when it came to marching and fighting, they were not worthy of feeding horses to the Xiliang army. Resistance still has a chance to live, and giving up is only a dead end. The Yang family danced desperately with the guy in their hands, just begging for a chance to live. Xiliangjun held back the fire all night, and finally sent it out on the Yang family.

The resistance of the Yang family will only provoke the killing in the hearts of the Xiliang soldiers, and the Xiliang army will strangle everyone like chopping melons and vegetables. A Xiliang soldier raised Yang Zhen's head high, and his palm kept slapping his mouth, making an ah-ah-ah scream.

"General, do we take this opportunity to enter Chang'an City?" Vice Adjutant Ma Dai wiped the blood from his face and asked Ma Dai.

Ma Dai sneered, "Withdraw the troops!" "Liang Xing and Ma Play didn't capture Chang'an with so many people, just with these dozens of people, the results are clear, the Yang family is just a substitute for the dead sent by Zhong Xuan.

The various units of the Xiliang Army returned to the camps of the various departments and hurriedly put out the fire. It's just that the fire is too big, and everything is in vain, and they can only watch as the food, grass and camp are eaten away by the fire. Xiahou Yuan, who was lurking outside Chang'an City and attacked the military camp of the Xiliang Army, also quietly returned to Chang'an. After this battle, the grain and grass of the Xiliang army were lost, Liang Xing and the horse play department suffered countless casualties, and the siege of Chang'an was lifted.

"General Yu, I have to trouble you to keep a close eye on the Sun family and the Yang family." Seeing that the Yang family was strangled by Ma Dai, Zhong Miao said to Yu Bin, his face was not very good-looking.

Yu Bin nodded, with a hint of a smile on his face, and said modestly, "This is natural, Mr. Zhong has seen the outside." ”

The bad guys put all their energy into the monitoring of the big families in the city, and the Xiliang army outside Chang'an City no longer poses a threat to Chang'an, and now there is time to clean up the restlessness in the city.

Yin Ke and Zhao Kuan came with Hu Wei, and Yin Ke's clothes were crumpled, as if they had been caused by a conflict with someone. Yin Ke and Zhao Kuan saluted Zhong Xuan together, "We are fortunate not to be dishonored, the Xiliang army has withdrawn," Zhong Xuan nodded in return.

"Yin also wants to thank the generals for taking care of them." Yin Ke said in a weird manner, biting the word "care" very hard.

"Master of the Yin family, polite, polite." Wei Gang, the head of the Tiger Guard, stood behind Cao Shuang, with a smile and modesty on his face. It turned out that after Wei Gang led the tiger guard to the west city wall, he directly controlled Yin Ke and Zhao Kuan, and Yin Ke and Wei Gang pushed and shoved at that time. Wei Gang grabbed Yin Ke's collar and lifted Yin Ke into the air, which led to this scene.

Wei Gang's words were like sarcasm in Yin Ke's ears, and Yin Ke almost had a seizure on the spot. Zhong Miao waved his hand impatiently, his expression was very bad, "The two heads of the family will go back to rest for the time being, and the relevant matters will be discussed in detail in a few days." ”

Cao Shuang returned to his residence under the escort of the tiger guard, although he did not go into battle to kill the enemy and defend the city, Cao Shuang always felt dizzy. Walking to a secluded place, Wei Gang asked everyone to stop, and the Tiger Guard put his hand on the hilt of his sword, looking around vigilantly.

"What's wrong?" Cao Shuang kept looking around, but didn't find anything.

Suddenly, a cold light flashed in the distance, Wei Gang threw Cao Shuang to the ground with lightning speed, and looked again, only to see that on the stone slab where Cao Shuang was standing just now, a crossbow arrow entered more than an inch. The Tiger Guard drew the saber at his waist and protected Cao Shuang behind him.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and from the footsteps, Wei Gang guessed that there were ten people on the other side. I saw ten black-clothed people in the distance, holding long swords in both hands, gradually approaching Cao Shuang. "Protect Childe!" Wei Gang let out a loud shout and rushed forward. Two tiger guards protected Cao Shuang, and the rest of the tiger guards also rushed forward. The two-handed long sword of the man in black was only three feet long, and the sword body was thick and heavy, and it was extremely powerful to slash.

The tiger guard was heavily armoured, and sparks flew from his long sword slash. Hu Wei's sword technique is wide open and closed, full of momentum, the figure in black is weird, and the swordsmanship is tricky, and the two sides are not up and down for a while. The weight of the sword was extremely testing the strength of the person who used the sword, and some of the men in black began to pant, taking this opportunity to launch a continuous attack, and the two men in black were stabbed several times and died on the spot.

On the second floor on one side of the street, a young man listened to the fight downstairs while drinking tea. A man dressed as an attendant asked, "Commander, why do you have to make such a big deal about dealing with a doll?" ”

The young man's sword eyebrows were raised, and his eyebrows were raised, "What do you know?" The entire Xiliang Army was defeated at the hands of this doll, and if he stayed, he would definitely be a fierce enemy in the future. ”

The attendant was silent and refilled the young man's tea.

A man in black used all his strength to swing his sword and cut off the head and armor of the tiger guard on the opposite side, and then his body fell down as soon as he went limp. There were casualties on both sides, and a tiger guard and a man in black grabbed each other's necks and died together. The two tiger guards who protected Cao Shuang were also killed by the sword, Cao Shuang used the knife in his hand to block a move of the man in black, and found that the knife was rolled up, and the hand holding the knife was numb and trembling. The sword of the man in black was lifted again, Cao Shuang clearly heard the sound of the sword body breaking the wind, and he didn't have time to react, so he closed his eyes and waited for death.

Wei Gang, who was fighting with the man in black in the distance, threw the saber in his hand, and the knife hit the back of the man in black. Cao Shuang felt that his face was warm, and he saw the man in black falling. Wei Gang was also slashed to the ground by a sword, and his body kept twitching.

The only remaining man in black dragged his long sword and walked towards Cao Shuang step by step. Cao Shuang picked up the knife on the ground again, ready to fight to the death. With a whoosh, a spear burst out of the black-bodied man's body. Cao Shuang recognized the gun, which was Xiahou Yuan's spear.

"Childe, they haven't done it yet." The attendant looked at his companion downstairs without any expression on his face.

"Good, good." The young man upstairs applauded again and again when he saw the scene downstairs, but the teacup in his hand was pinched and shattered, "Let's go!" ”

"Ah Shuang, are you okay?" Xiahou Yuan came with a team of men and horses, and the soldiers immediately blocked the scene and began to search around.

Cao Shuang stepped forward and hugged Wei Gang in his arms, with tears in his eyes, and one hand blocked the wound on Wei Gang's neck, trying to stop the gurgling blood, "Wei Gang, you have to hold on." ”

"Childe, it's okay if you're okay, then I, I also have the face to go down to see the evil general." Wei Gang raised his hand to wipe Cao Shuang's tears, but suddenly fell weakly.

"Wei Gang! Wei Gang! Cao Shuang cried hoarsely, and everyone present was moved.

Upstairs on the other side of the street, a big man with stubble on his face said, "Childe, what should we do?" ”

"Withdraw!" The young man with a beautiful face got up and left without hesitation, and was surrounded by Xiahou Yuan's people no matter how late he was.

"But how can we explain to the master when we go back?" The stubble man followed closely behind the young man and hurriedly retreated.

The corners of the young man's mouth rose, "Tell the truth." ”

After that, the two parties disappeared into the night, and Cao Bing, who was searching the scene, pounced.
