Chapter Twenty-Four: A City-wide Raid
This scene on Fang Street has shocked everyone, even a bandit like the bearded man, when he looked at the assassin on Fang Street, who was nailed to death there, his scalp couldn't help but tingle.
The power of these iron men has exceeded his cognition, and the terrifying power made him lose the courage to fight against them in an instant, which is obviously the biggest taboo for a martial artist.
But it can't be eliminated, because this kind of terrifying power is no longer something that a martial artist can face!
Jiang Chao is now close at hand, and he sees all the scenes that have just happened, from the time he reminds him to the time these iron men make a move, it will only take a few blinks of an eye in total. Then, the man who was still alive just now had already appeared on the opposite wall.
Jiang Chao's throat slid up and down, thinking back to the scene just now, and when he looked at the iron man in front of him again, he whispered in his mouth: "This is too much!" ”
Xue Wanche looked at the steel people, and he was also dumbfounded, and after a while, he gasped as if he had a toothache.
As a general on the military array, Xue Wanche can better understand the horror of these iron men in front of him than Jiang Chao and Qiu Ke, especially the bow and crossbow in the hands of the iron people, once equipped with the sixteen guards of the Tang Dynasty.
Then next, whether it is the Turks or the Tiele people, all that remains is to surrender to the Tang Dynasty obediently, otherwise, once it fights with the Tang army equipped with such a device, it is estimated that they will die miserably!
The few remaining Assassins watched as their heads were overshadowed by the Iron Men who suddenly appeared. Nail alive to the wall, without even a struggle. For a moment, I was simply frightened.
And then, when those iron men. When they looked at it together, they began to run wildly.
It turns out that when a person is near-dying, he has many times the potential to burst out as he usually does, even these assassins.
The appearance of the Iron Man had already frightened them, as if they had seen the outcome they were facing next, as if they were crazy. Rush to the walls on both sides.
At this time, on the Fang Street, on the one hand, there were dozens of ordinary soldiers of the Tang Dynasty led by Liu Duwei, and on the other hand, there were those iron men guarding the place, no matter how they fled from there, the ending was the same miserable.
The walls on both sides are earthen walls more than one person high, although it is a square when you enter, but in this case. It seems that there is no other choice!
'Boom! The bearded man is still an old bandit, and although his eyes are fixed on the iron man, his attention is always on these people. When you perceive the purpose of these people. Without saying a word, he picked up his fist and smashed it firmly on a person's back.
The punch was so powerful that it was on the back of the man who listened. There was a sound of fists and flesh clashing, and a mouthful of blood spurted out of the man's mouth. But the man also used the power of this punch. Suddenly jumped up the wall of the workshop and jumped into the workshop.
"Leave it for Grandpa!" Just quiet now. In an instant, it broke again, and of the two people that the bearded guest dealt with, one fled into the workshop, and the other was still entangled with the bearded guest.
Jiang Chao, who was standing there, saw that someone had escaped, so he immediately stepped hard, crossed the wall, and chased after him.
The two short spears in Xue Wanche's hand whined strangely, and finally when the man tried to jump onto the wall, a spear poked the man's calf.
The sharp tip of the spear not only pierced the man's calf, but when the tip of the spear penetrated the calf, it also poked directly into the wall, which was equivalent to nailing the man to the wall.
There were a total of four assassins, plus Hua Niang, a lurking assassin, a total of five, however, after half an hour of fighting, only Xue Wanche was there and captured one alive.
The frightened horse had broken her spine and crawled there like a dead dog, motionless.
And the two people that the bearded guest dealt with, one jumped into the fang wall to escape, and was chased by Jiang Chao, but the other was directly smashed by the bearded guest, and sat there against the fang wall, and he couldn't die anymore!
A sudden assassination ended like this, and Zhao Chen, who was injured by his bones, was also carried back to Zhao's mansion by the iron and steel people who came later, looking a little miserable.
However, in the end, they still escaped!
In the Ganlu Palace, the atmosphere at the moment was a little tense, Li Er's face was very dark, and he stood there with his hands in his hands, with an anger in his eyes that could not be concealed.
And the eldest grandson, who had a straight belly, sat on a futon and wept secretly, it was obvious that this was a conflict between the two members of the empire!
And the reason is for Xiangcheng, the eldest grandson came back from Xiangcheng, and he came up with a proper solution in his mind, but this method is inevitably a little out of courtesy.
As a result, Ai Ai, who waited for the eldest grandson, told Li Eryi, and Li Er's volcano erupted instantly.
At this time, a pale-faced chamberlain outside the hall suddenly stumbled into the main hall, and without waiting for Li Er to get angry, he trembled and reported a shocking news to Li Er.
On the way back from the palace, the Marquis of Chang'an was suddenly assassinated by a group of unknown people!
"Is there anything wrong with Chang'anhou?" When Li Er heard the news, he gasped suddenly, and a terrifying light instantly burst out of his eyes, staring at the waiter with anger in his tone that could not be concealed.
Zhao Chen's martial arts, Li Er knows best, a person who takes an iron lance, can be like drinking wine, in the face of the assassin who suddenly appeared, the result is very terrifying to Li Er.
"Chang'an Hou's life is worry-free!" The chamberlain's face turned pale, he naturally knew what status Chang'anhou had in His Majesty's heart, and when he heard Li Er's inquiry, he didn't dare to hide it at all, and said honestly: "It's just that when he fell off the carriage at that time, Chang'anhou was injured by a fall!" ”
"Where are the Assassins now?" Li Er heard that Zhao Chen's life was worry-free, but he just hurt his muscles and bones, and the heart that was hanging just now was put down at once, and then, a murderous aura flashed in his eyes, and he asked coldly.
"Back to Your Majesty!" The chamberlain didn't dare to hide it, and hurriedly told Li Er the news he had just gotten 1510: "There are a total of six assassins, one was shot by Chang'an Hou, one was captured alive by General Xue, and the rest of the dead people died three and escaped!" ”
When Li Er heard that Zhao Chen had also shot one, the expression on his face was obviously stunned for a moment, but then, he said angrily: "Check, even if you scrape the ground, you have to find out this person for me!" ”
"Message!" When Li Er said this, he suddenly said murderously: "Immediately order the Punishment Department and Yousi to take over, search the whole city, step up the interrogation of that assassin, and be sure to give me an explanation in the fastest time!" ”
"Whoa!" When the chamberlain heard this, he did not dare to stay at all, and immediately took a few steps back, hurried out of the main hall, and read His Majesty's will to the various ministries of the imperial city.
As a result, the entire Chang'an City changed color at this moment!
As the saying goes, when the husband is angry, blood is splashed in five steps, the son of heaven is angry, and millions of corpses are ambushed.
Because of Li Er's anger, the entire Chang'an City began to be shrouded in a murderous aura, obviously it was a blue sky and a white day, but he always felt that there were black clouds overhead.
On Suzaku Street, a group of heavily armed Tang soldiers galloped past from time to time, murderous.
The one hundred and eight squares in Chang'an, at this moment, all attracted a team of heavily armed soldiers, under the leadership of each square, began to search all over the city.
Chang'an City was shrouded in the atmosphere of slaughter, and the people were all driven home, honestly preparing their household registration, waiting for Fang Zheng to bring someone to come over for investigation.
If there is a stranger, then prepare a road guide, if there is no road guide, then I can't stop it, I will be taken to the yamen of the criminal department immediately, where to explain slowly!
In the past, on the street, the lawless splashes disappeared collectively, hiding in their own houses one by one, trembling and waiting, Fang Zheng brought people over to investigate.
This city-wide search, not to mention, twenty or thirty suspicious people were found at once, and there was no way to guide them, and they couldn't tell their origins, and the prison of the Criminal Department was overcrowded for a while.
Dai Guan's face was gloomy and was about to drip water, as the chief officer of the Criminal Department, a few days ago, he was still singing praises in the court, saying that the trees in the courtyard of the Criminal Department were full of family sparrows. This is because in the past year, the yin qi of the criminal department has decreased, which is a sign of stability in the Tang Dynasty.
The result? As a result, not long after his words fell, a group of assassins suddenly appeared, and it was not good to assassinate anyone, and they wanted to assassinate Chang'anhou.
Dai Guan's teeth rattled, and his face gloomy kicked open the door of a cell, which was the innermost cell of the Criminal Department's prison, and the prisoners were generally felons of the Criminal Department.
In this cell at this moment, the person being detained is naturally the person who was captured alive by Xue Wanche.
At this time, he was tied to a wooden frame, and his calf was blood-red, and where he was pierced by a short spear, there was a bloody hole, in which Bai Sensen's stubble could be seen.
There were seven or eight jailers who followed Dai Zhou into this cell, each of whom carried a torture instrument in his hand, which was stained with a lot of blood, and looked black in color, showing a gloomy feeling.
"Dai thinks that these torture instruments will not be used for a long time!" Dai Xuan walked into the cell, stood in front of the assassin with a gloomy face, and said gloomily: "I didn't expect it to come in handy again today!" ”
"Hahaha!" As Dai Guan's words fell, the assassin suddenly raised his head, looked at Dai Xuan with a fierce expression, and laughed, "Then come!" Let grandpa also learn the skills of your criminal department! ”
"Don't kill him!" Hearing this, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he explained to several jailers behind him, and then exited the cell.
As soon as he exited the cell, the assassin suddenly heard the heart-rending screams of the cell.
"Shout!" Listening to this roar, Dai Zhou raised his head slightly, looked at the gloomy cell, and said: "It's just a while, when you want to shout again, I'm afraid you won't be able to shout!" ”
As if in response to Dai Guan's words, then, bursts of screams sounded in the entire prison, and with the gloomy cell, for a while, it made people feel creepy. (To be continued......)
