Chapter 375: Murder and Arson
Ma Yi and the others left the house, and the owner of the house was tied into a rice dumpling with hemp rope and a sackcloth in his mouth.
If he doesn't want to kill people and can't reveal his whereabouts, he can only choose this.
Out of the alley, Ma Yi found the other night thorns dressed in the clothes of the common people like them.
The Night Thorn carried with him on a hidden mission was not a long sword, but a short sword that was half a cut shorter than the Han sword.
The short sword is in his arms, and it is extremely difficult to find it if he does not search his body.
The night spurs scattered throughout the city's markets, blending in with the crowds.
They didn't gather immediately, they approached the warehouse in groups of three or five.
The closer they got to Cangli, the more heavily guarded the Cao army became.
After wandering around for a few moments, Ma Yi whispered to a night thorn: "Tell everyone to sneak into the warehouse!" ”
Nightthorn nodded in response and dodged away.
In a moment, the Nightthorns, scattered nearby, received orders.
The barn is surrounded by a high courtyard wall, and the barns lined up inside the courtyard wall can be seen clearly from the outside.
Lurking in unattended corners, the night thorns swooped up the walls.
Ma Fei was standing outside the wall with five or six night thorns, watching one of the night thorns go up the wall when two people appeared at the corner of the street.
The two of them carried a burden, and some clay pots were piled up in the basket, which should be sold in the market.
Seeing someone climb over the wall, the two were stunned.
They were about to shout when two of the Night's Blinders stepped forward.
The short blade rested on their necks, and a night thorn lowered his voice and said, "Don't make a sound, or it's a sword." ”
With a short sword around his neck, the two men were trembling and shouting.
"General, what should I do?" Glancing at the two men. A nightthorn whispered.
Looking left and right, Ma Yi was a little troubled.
There are few people passing by, but there is nowhere to hide the bodies. Sooner or later, they will be found out after killing them.
Let them go?
Ma Yi will definitely not!
At least not until it happens!
"Bring them in." Ma Yi made a decision.
"What happens to the goods?" A night thorn asked.
"You two pick up the goods to sell in the market." After choosing two night thorns, Ma Yi said, "Wait for me to do it." Leave with you. ”
The two chosen night thorns glanced at each other, picked up their burdens and headed for the market.
Holding two men hostage, the Night Thorn lifted them up to the wall.
Squatting on the wall, the two of them trembled, not daring to resist at all.
The two night stabs climbed against the wall, grabbed them by the collars, and jumped down with them.
Entering the barn, the night thorn tied the two strongly, and Ma Yi led people closer to the barn.
The hundreds of Cao troops assigned by Guo Jia were all stationed in Cangli.
Dormant in the shadows, Nightthorn observes the route of Cao's patrol.
Every other cup of tea. There was a group of Cao troops passing along the road, and if they wanted to attack, they had to be extremely fast and not leave any traces.
The night thorns crouching beside Ma Yi all looked at him.
"Thou shalt not use a sword, and no one shall be left alive!" Ma Yi said a few words coldly.
Another team of Cao Jun came up.
The lance slanted upward, and Cao Jun walked along the path with neat steps.
Seeing Cao Jun pass in front of him, Ma Yi nodded.
Night thorns, which were equal in number to Cao's army, immediately burst out.
They were extremely fast, but their steps were so light that they could not be heard.
Before Cao Jun could find out, the night stab that rushed to the front had already strangled the neck of the last person and twisted it hard.
Immediately after that, the other night thorns stepped forward.
However, in an instant, the entire team of Cao Jun was dealt with by them.
Dragging the corpse back to the hiding place, the night thorn who took the lead nodded to Ma Yi.
Two or three teams of Cao troops passed by. Quietly touched by the Night Thorn.
There was a gap in Cao's patrol route.
"Do it!" Ma Yi beckoned everyone.
Night thorns burst out one after another, taking advantage of the vacancy in Cao's patrol route to set fire to the nearest barn.
Winters are dry and windy. The flames quickly erupted.
Lighting a barn, Nightthorn immediately spreads out, enlarging nearby barns one by one.
"It's on fire!" Smoke billows up and jumps into the air. Cao Jun, who found out about the abnormality, immediately went into chaos.
Hundreds of Cao troops ran out of the barracks and ran towards the barn.
Many of them did not carry blades. Instead, they carry pots and pots.
Igniting the barn, Ma Yi did not order it to be withdrawn. Instead, he led the Nightthorn to the place where the fire started.
The first to bring people to fight the fire was Wang Hua.
The fire in the winter warehouse is not something that has never happened, he only thinks about putting out the fire quickly, and does not consider that someone has set it on fire!
The city gates had been closed a few days earlier, and it was impossible for Yuan Jun to place people in Guancheng in advance.
The security of the warehouse is also extremely strict, and it is almost impossible for someone to set fire!
Led people to rush to the place where the fire broke out, Wang Hua saw many men in deep clothes standing with swords.
What they held in their hands was not a long sword, but a sharp blade that was half a cut shorter than the Han sword.
Seeing this scene, Wang Hua was taken aback.
He was about to ask who was in front of him, when a figure sprang up quickly.
A figure jumped past him, accompanied by an arc of silver light, and Wang Hua only felt a chill in his throat.
Seeing the blood splash out like a fountain, he fell straight down.
It was Ma Yi who rushed up.
After killing Wang Hua, Ma Yi shouted: "No one will be left!" ”
The number of night assassins was far less than that of Cao Jun, but they were not afraid at all, and before Cao Jun, who came to put out the fire, came to his senses, they had already raised their butcher knives.
One by one, Cao Jun fell in a pool of blood, and the news of the surprise attack on Cangli soon reached Sun Yang's ears.
was about to go out to fight the fire, and when he learned that someone had broken into the warehouse, Sun Yang was stunned and frightened!
The city is heavily guarded, and since the gate ban has been issued, it is impossible for people outside the city to enter!
Cangqiao is also three steps, one post, seven steps and one sentry, even if you sneak in, it won't take long for Cao Jun to find out.
"How many people sneaked in?" Sun Yang asked in astonishment.
"There are more than 100 people!" The soldiers couldn't hide their panic, and they stammered a little when they spoke: "All of them are good at martial arts, more than 100 brothers have died under their swords, and General Wang has also died!" ”
I thought that there were only a few people who infiltrated, but I didn't expect that there were as many as 100 people, and even Wang Hua was killed, Sun Yang was more and more surprised.
Grabbing the plate axe, he shouted to the soldiers: "Kill the enemy with so-and-so!" ”
Out of the room, just as he was about to gather his troops and horses to exterminate the arsonist, a figure flew in.
Passing by Sun Yang, the figure waved his arm.
Seeing the arc flashing, Sun Yang hurriedly raised the plate axe to block.
The arc flashed, and when he realized that something was wrong and was about to turn back, there was a sudden pain in the back of his head.
A dagger stabbed through the back of his head and through his forehead.
Cao Jun, who reported to Sun Yangyu that Cangqiao had been attacked, watched him assassinated and stayed on the spot in shock.
Jumping towards the Cao soldiers, Ma Yi swung his sword again.
Killed Sun Yang and Cao Jun beside him, swept the short sword in his hand, Ma Yi pouted and smiled: "Short is shorter, light is lighter, but take advantage of it!" ”
The Lord will be killed, the night assassins are killing people everywhere, and Cao's army is in chaos.
Cao Jun's panicked cries wafted from the raging flames.
The cries became less and less, which meant that more and more Cao Jun died under the night stabbing sword. (To be continued.) )
