The archway in the eastern suburbs, not far from the east gate of Handan, is a famous and prosperous place in Handan, with many shops and pedestrians. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
At this moment, on both sides of the street, there are dozens of pairs of sharp eyes watching the situation on the street, either openly or covertly, and they are going to do a big thing here today that will shake the Zhao Kingdom and even the world.
In an inn on the side of the road, a young man dressed in good clothes was drinking the best tea that the inn could find, with a solemn expression. At the same time, two men, one strong and one young, leaned against the window, and they gently pushed open the window sash to leave a gap, observing the situation on the street.
The young man said, "If it weren't for the damn loss of important information, we wouldn't have waited from yesterday afternoon until now." ”
"What about the fine man?" The man in fancy clothes asked.
The young man said: "Prince Qiqi, in order to prevent leakage of news, that fine work has been solved by me." ”
The prince nodded: "Such a big crime, it is indeed impossible to stay." ”
The middle-aged man asked, "Are the princes sure that he wants to assassinate this man today?" You should know that this person is like the mainstay of Zhao and the Great Wall of the country. Once this person loses, Zhao Guo will inevitably do his best to retaliate. If we find out about our Yan country, I am afraid that it will be another national war. And this time, we have mobilized all the details lurking in Zhao State, and we are only afraid of defeat once we fail...... The last general asked the prince to think twice, if you want to stop, it's still too late at this moment. ”
"Stop? Why stop? The prince said: "During the seven years I stayed in Handan, I was bullied by the people of Zhao Guo, and I was always thinking about how to get back a hundredfold and a thousand times the revenge. If I just kill a few ordinary people, how can I solve the hatred in my heart, if I want to kill, I will kill this person - Li Mu, I want to make all the people of Zhao regret what they have done to me, I want them to watch their guardian gods fall in front of them, and appreciate their desperate and helpless eyes, hahahaha. ”
"Yes, if you lose Li Mu, Zhao Guo will be a piece of fat in my Yan Kingdom's mouth, and we will also make immortal contributions to Yan Guo," the young man echoed.
The man in the prime of life sighed, and then said no more.
"The general has returned to Handan," a man ran through the street to tell each other, shouting whenever he met people, and the people who heard the news took to the streets, standing on both sides of the street, looking forward to preparing to meet their patron saint.
"It's coming," the nervous Yan Prince Dan almost knocked over the tea bowl in his hand, but he still forced himself to calm down and slowly drank the tea in his hand, but the beads of sweat rolling down his sideburns and trembling hands still showed his heart. And the two generals beside him drew their swords, Rao is experienced in a hundred battles, they were also extremely nervous at the moment, just because the person he was going to assassinate today was by no means ordinary, it was the world-famous Li Mu.
The neat procession was divided into left and right and walked along the street, receiving a warm welcome from the people, and after the guard of honor of the mighty general and the banner hunting procession passed, a four-horse chariot slowly approached, the people on the cart were covered in silver armor, and their entire heads were covered by helmets, so that they could not be seen. The chariot was surrounded by two warriors, tall and imposing.
"Welcome the general back to Handan," I don't know who shouted, and all the people knelt down in unison, not because they were afraid of Li Mu's status, but because they sincerely respected the person they trusted the most.
"Folks, please get up." The general hurriedly got out of the car and wanted to help the kneeling people up. He picked up an old man and a child, and when he was about to pick up another sister-in-law, the sister-in-law suddenly grabbed the general's hand tightly and refused to let go.
"You ......"
"Suffer death, Li Mu." Na Da Sou raised a face that had not been completely shaved clean, and suddenly pulled out a dagger from behind his back with a cruel smile, and prepared to stab Li Mu in the chest.
"There's an assassin," a young man burst into, kicking away the sister-in-law, disguised as a woman, while shielding the general behind him, "protect the general." ”
The image of the man desperate was immediately imprinted in the eyes of everyone, but he did not pay attention to the sister-in-law who tried to assassinate the general in front of him, but turned his head to the other side. Following his gaze, he saw more than a dozen masked men carrying knives in the distance.
"Brothers," the sister-in-law shouted, and a number of assassins in various costumes suddenly burst out of the crowd and rushed straight into the general's chariot, which caught the man who was protecting the general by surprise.
"Why are there people here who want to kill me, they really have to pay for it." The man who was desperate suddenly hugged his head and ran away, he was Yingzheng who was chased here by the masked man.
Ying Zheng didn't know that the general had entered the city, and he didn't know that someone was going to assassinate Li Mu, but he couldn't be chased at all, and he saw that there were many people here and there were troops, so he rushed over. As for kicking away the assassin disguised as a woman, it was completely improvised, mainly to provoke the army to deal with the black-clothed man who was chasing him, completely unaware that he had saved the general's life by beating him crookedly.
It happened so suddenly, and for a while the people were in a mess, crowded with the sergeants and assassins, and they couldn't tell the difference between you and me. Only those masked men with knives suddenly became the main targets of the Zhao army's attack because of their distinctive dress.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we are not assassins...... Ah, "A masked man was stabbed to death by the army."
Seeing that the situation was not good, the other masked men fled backwards as they fought back.
"Big brother, how can there be an army? It seems to be General Li Mu's. ”
"Where the fuck did I know that Zhao Yuan's bastard actually dared to harm me, and now I can't wash it even if I jump into the Yellow River...... Everyone is looking for an opportunity to disperse and escape, and one can go. ”
"Got it...... Ah, "The man who had just finished talking to the eldest brother was killed by an arrow from the Zhao army. How could this rabble of theirs be the opponent of the well-trained Zhao army, especially the personal soldiers led by Li Mu, who is famous all over the world for his soldiers. After a short confrontation, the masked men were all dead, and all of them were annihilated except for the eldest brother and one or two who escaped.
However, this side is not out of danger yet, and there are a large number of assassins in the Yan Kingdom who assassinated Li Mu, and all of them have superb martial arts and are not afraid of death, which is many times more powerful than the masked people who chased and killed Yingzheng. The armor soldiers around the general were killed and retreated in an instant, and the general and Yingzheng were suddenly surrounded by more than a dozen people in a small circle.
Ying Zheng still hasn't figured out what's going on, but he is just wronged in his heart, does he need to work so many people to chase and kill by himself, and he is so alarmed that the whole Handan chickens and dogs jump, which is too face-saving.
Looking at the silver-armored general who was besieged with him, Ying Zheng said: "What kind of general, what kind of general is this, so many of your subordinates let them rush together, otherwise we will all have fun." ”
"Don't worry, you can't die with buddies." The general is easy-going and very marketable, which sounds quite unruly.
"Li Mu will give the head." The dozen or so assassins jumped up at the same time, like a circle shrinking towards the center, and the center point was none other than General Li Mu standing on the chariot.
