Three days later, Zhang Ru, who had been in the barracks for three days, finished a day of exhausting training and rushed to the General Soldier's Mansion with more than 20 people.

Walking three miles outside Quang Ninh City, several black-clothed and masked men suddenly appeared in the melting snow, all of whom were holding Tang knives in their hands. As soon as he appeared, he immediately aimed at Zhang Ru, who was wearing a bullfighting suit at the front, and pounced.

Judging from their movements, these people are all masters, but judging from the way they besiege, they seem quite rusty.

The three of them rushed towards Zhang Ru in the shape of arrows, and the other ten people were divided into two teams, one team ran to entangle Jinyiwei, and the other team rushed towards Zhang Ru with the three people.

If the formation is not scattered, once the people in front of the arrow entangle Zhang Ru, the few people behind will not even have a chance to see the stitches.

Zhang Ru didn't dare to underestimate it, although there had been a secret conversation with Gu Qian, but who knew what Gu Qian thought, maybe the old guy wished he died in this seemingly unprofessional assassination.

Although those killer kung fu skills are not weak, they are somewhat dwarfed in the face of more than twenty brocade guards. Instead, the seven or eight people were surrounded by more than ten Jinyiwei, but Jinyiwei could still free up his hands to deal with the six people who followed the three.

The embroidered spring knife had long been unsheathed, glowing with cold light in the spring sun, and the killer at the front was covered in a while, and his feet were unstable and almost fell. Even the two killers who followed him also stagnated, and the three of them almost squeezed together.

Among the killers who were dominated by the Jinyi Guards, there was one of the tallest masked men who happened to see this scene, and let out a long roar from his mouth, and his body was leisurely raised two feet, and he actually jumped over so many Jinyi Guards to the periphery of the encirclement.

That man's eyes were like cold stars, and Zhang Ru could see the cold glint in his eyes from afar.

Hearing the long whistle, a few black-clothed people who were only four or five feet away from Zhang Ru scattered one after another, but this action was very fast, three points more skilled than the professionally trained Jinyi Guard.

With this one move, it can be seen that these people are not here to assassinate at all.

If they really want to assassinate, they are afraid that if Zhang Ru is ready, they will be able to burst out and hurt people.

The tall killer arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye, Zhang Ru got off the war horse, and the scabbard gently patted the horse's buttocks, the war horse Xu had been with Zhang Ru for a long time, and he was still spinning in place under the pain.

"Why should General Zhang embarrass a brute, it has feelings for you, and knows that you are in danger, so it will naturally not leave." The tall killer didn't rush to make a move, but instead talked about the war horse with his hands on his chest.

Zhang Ru sneered: "If it stays, it will only become a constraint, so it is better to leave early." ”

"You're not afraid?" The tall killer asked.

Zhang Ru said lightly: "The knives are all in front of me, I'm afraid it's useless." If you want to fight, I will accompany you. ”

"Okay, refreshed!" The tall killer suddenly drew his knife, and the scabbard flew out and was nailed into a big tree about ten zhang in a daze, and it was three points into the wood.

Zhang Ru stood with a horizontal knife, wanting to wait until the killer approached before making a move, but he didn't expect that the killer was a smart man, and the tip of the Tang knife that had been hanging on the ground was inserted into the snow that had not yet melted. With a casual swing, it brought up a burst of snowflakes, and then turned into a thorn, and the tip of the knife pointed directly at Zhang Ru's chest.

Having already taken precautions, Zhang Ru took a few steps back, and the embroidered spring knife slashed in the air, and the knife flower almost covered his true face.

"Sonorous!"

After a loud bang, both of them felt numb.

The tall killer threw the Tang knife into the air, changed his hand and rushed forward again.

Zhang Ru did not change the knife, he has always been used to holding the knife with his right hand, but he does not have the ability to use a tall killer to open the bow left and right.

After shaking his hand vigorously, he also rushed towards the tall killer.

The snow was still nearly two feet deep, and ordinary people could not move, but the speed of the two was not slow.

In the blink of an eye, the two fought again. The strange sword light shrouded the figures of the two of them, and the people outside couldn't see what was more powerful inside.

Since coming to Daming, Zhang Ru has met an opponent of the same level for the first time.

The opponents he had encountered before were either too strong, or so weak that he didn't want to have the idea of making a move. Of course, the perverted master Cui Keji, who is known as the number one master of Jinyiwei, and Jinyiweiqian both command Wantong, can only be among the former.

The two knives were staggered dozens of times, and there were gaps on the Hundred Refining Tang Knife, but those gaps were not as big as the embroidered spring knife in Zhang Ru's hand, and at first glance, it looked like the Tang Knife had been turned into a sickle.

Both of them gasped, and Zhang Ru's right hand and the tall killer's left hand both flowed blood from the tiger's mouth.

Not far away, the men and horses under the command of both sides were also in the midst of a fierce battle, four or five of them were injured and fell to the ground on the Jinyi guard's side, and two of the black-clothed killers died.

"Are you still fighting?" Zhang Ru took the lead in breaking the silence.

"It's still a fart, my people are merciful, and your people treat my brother as Cai. If I continue to fight them, my people will have to be killed. The tall killer gasped.

Zhang Ru's eyes glared: "Then you don't leave, wait here for Lao Tzu to invite you to dinner!" ”

The tall killer's temper didn't seem to be good, but when he saw Zhang Ru reprimanding, he took a deep breath and scolded: "Lao Tzu also has to have the strength to go, you fucking attack so hard, are you still human." ”

Zhang Ru said angrily: "If you want to kill me, you still blame me for my heavy shot, what kind of crooked reasoning." ”

"Ahh

A scream interrupted the conversation between the two, and while he could speak, the tall killer regained some strength, and his head turned to the sky and let out a long howl again. The black-clothed killers who were in close contact with the Jinyi Guards gave up their opponents one after another, and quickly retreated towards the snow one by one.

After the tall killer took a deep look at Zhang Ru, he put his toes on the snow a little and left quickly.

Jinyiwei's people wanted to take advantage of the victory to pursue, but they were stopped by Zhang Ru: "Don't chase." ”

In today's battle, if Fan Tong is here, I am afraid that those black-clothed killers will not know how many people will die.

In order to make it easier for Gu Qian's people to start, Zhang Ru went back to the General Military Mansion this time and specially told Fan Tong not to let him follow.

Fortunately, Gu Qian still took care of the safety of his family and did not take any dangerous moves, otherwise, Zhang Ru would really be in danger.

If it is really a fight to the death, these Jinyi guards under Zhang Ru's command who have never seen much blood are, in a sense, really inferior to those killers who have seen blood.

The injuries of the few injured brothers under his command are not serious, but they are not light, at least for a short time, these people do not want to do strenuous exercise.

Zhang Ru hated iron and said loudly: "Those who should recuperate from their injuries, after the others go back, they will double their training for Lao Tzu, and if something happens, they will become like this bird, and Lao Tzu will not worry about letting you go to the battlefield in the future." ”

Those brocade guards also said that it was because of their poor protection that Zhang Ru was angry, and they buried their heads deep in their chests one by one, and they didn't dare to come out.

When the group returned to the General Soldier's Mansion, it was already a little dark, and Gu Qian waited at the gate early, seeing that Zhang Ru was safe and sound, the two gave each other a tacit look, and then Gu Qian found a doctor to treat the injured Jinyi Wei.

Hou Yi, who had everything in his eyes, had doubts in his eyes, and secretly, but quietly observed the words and deeds of Zhang Ru and Wu Qian.

Until Zhang Ru returned to the other courtyard, Hou Yi didn't see anything, so he had to follow Gu Qian to the study with doubts.

"General, in this blue sky and white day, on the territory of Liaodong Town, how could someone assassinate the commander?" After entering the study, Hou Yi closed the door and asked immediately.

Gu Qian said with a smile: "What's so great about him, isn't he just a second ancestor." If others can't move, can't the official still move him? ”

Hou Yi was shocked: "General, you mean that you arranged this assassination?" ”

Gu Qian sneered: "What's the matter, it's a pity that I couldn't kill him this time, otherwise the old man would have celebrated with you tonight." ”

"The general is cautious! This Confucianism is a poor person, and he is the governor of the nine sides, and his background is not small. The general acted rashly out of righteous indignation, but he must not be allowed to know. Zhang Yanwang has three words, but I don't know how many lives he used to pile them up. Hou Yi immediately cared very much about the authentic road.

Gu Qian smiled and said: "It's still Zhengying, you think about the old man!" Don't worry, he can't know about this, and the old man won't let him know. The big snake doesn't die, the old man doesn't want to suffer from it, and he can't say that he has to be false and wronged again! If the above knew that the old man was not doing his job well, he was afraid that he would be reprimanded. ”

"Above? What's on top? Hou Yi didn't seem to know, and asked suspiciously.

"Hmm, Jeong-young, how many years have you been with me?" Gu Qian did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

Hou Yi thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid it's been more than ten years." ”

Gu Qian pondered for a moment, as if he had made some big decision, and said: "For more than ten years, you have been loyal to me, and it is time to tell you some things." Don't look at the old man as a dignified Liaodong general soldier, but in the eyes of the person in the capital, I am just a small person. The assassination of Zhang Ru this time was not a moment of righteous indignation by the old man, but a request from the people above. ”

Hou Yi asked cautiously: "I don't know who is here."

Gu Qian waved his hand: "I can't tell you this for the time being, you just need to know that this person has a high status in His Majesty's heart, and he also has a lot of power in the court." The old man is a little worried, once the news spreads, I am afraid that the one in Beijing will be dissatisfied with the old man! ”

Hou Yi pondered: "According to what the general said, the energy of the one in the capital is not small, why didn't he do it himself, but waited for Zhang Ru to arrive in Liaodong before letting the general do it?" ”

Gu Qian spread his hands helplessly: "If the old man knew why, he wouldn't be the chief soldier of Liaodong." ”

"The general doesn't have to worry, Zhang Ru didn't die this time, it's not that the general didn't do things well, and the people above couldn't find a reason to blame. How to say that the general is also a feudal official, and if the people above want to move the general, it depends on whether the hundreds of thousands of troops in Liaodong agree. "Old God Hou Yi is in the tunnel.

Mu Qian nodded solemnly: "I hope so!" Zhengying, you go down and get busy first! Remember, appease the surnamed Zhang first, but don't let him trouble me again. ”

Hou Yi nodded and agreed: "The student obeys!" ”
