February, Luoyang.

It was night, without stars and moon.

Zhang Guo crouched quietly in a dark part of the roof, squinting at the street below, his body lying flat on the roof tiles, like a shadow behind the cornices, even if he had enough eyesight, he would not notice where he was hiding.

Just now, a few people walked by, some humming a little song, full of meat talk, and some drunk and talking nonsense. None of these people were his or his men's targets.

He brought a total of four people with him for this operation, all dressed in black at the moment, armed with sharp weapons, hiding in the shadows to prepare an assassination, and the target of the assassination was a prominent person.

His name is Yuan Shao!

Zhang Guo knew that the fourth and third princes of the Yuan family, where Yuan Shao was located, were extremely prominent, but so what? Now the lord of his own family has been in the sky since he was honored by his master, and he is invincible, the lord is strong and strong, and the white horse is invincible from the world, so why not be afraid of the Yuan family.

Since Bai Ziyun heard about the ending of the other world, Gongsun Chan was like a thorn in his back, and he was panicked, and finally sent Zhang over to carry out this assassination mission.

Zhang Guoneng was sent by Gongsun Chan to do such a secret thing as assassination, so he naturally won the trust of Gongsun Zhan. Zhang Guo's martial arts are not the highest under Gongsun Zhan, but he is cautious, meticulous, and quite strategic, so he is the best person to do this.

Assassination is a technical job, Zhang Guo is not an assassin, naturally not proficient in this business, Gongsun Chan did not dare to let Bai Ziyun know that he had murderous intentions towards Yuan Shao, so he did not dare to ask Bai Ziyun for knowledge of assassination. So this assassination can only be Zhang Guo's own pondering, Zhang Guo thought of many methods, and after the last scrutiny, according to Yuan Shao's habits, he felt that the assassination on the street was time-saving and secretive.

Yuan Shao was very self-disciplined, never drinking and prostituting during mourning, but he liked to go back and forth between the scribes, and in recent days he met with some scribes almost every day in a courtyard, and went home every night before the night fast, and was quite sneaky, as if he was plotting something.

Zhang Rang didn't care about this, since this guy often returned at night, his life couldn't be better on the way, so there were few people to see, and it was easy to escape calmly.

At this time, Zhang Guo estimated that Yuan Shao was also coming soon, because the time of the night curfew was almost up, and he had to go home before the night curfew.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a faint light to light on the dark road in the distance, and there was a sound of horses' hooves.

Immediately after that, a birdsong sounded in the distance, and he called three times in a row, and opened the corner of his mouth to show a smile.

The bird call was made by Zhang Guo's men, meaning that the target had appeared.

Soon the sound of horses' hooves approached, and a pair of horses slowly galloped, a total of six horsemen and six people, guarding a carriage in the middle, and two lanterns hung in front of the carriage, on which the word "Yuan" was written. Yuan Shao, who was obviously going to be assassinated, was in this carriage.

The six people were all holding long knives, tall, majestic, and arrogant, but they were quite disdainful when they saw it, these six people were masters in the eyes of ordinary people, but their own hands could solve them with one move.

Zhang Guo's eyes stared at the horse team like a wolf into the attack range, and then there was a roar, and in an instant, his four men were on the verge of attacking, and there was no scene like the hidden weapons in martial arts novels, but four crossbow arrows shot out, and the four knights in front of him were killed with one blow.

Zhang Guo flew out of the body and pounced directly on the carriage, and his sword fell in mid-air, like a lightning strike, splitting the frightened screaming groom in two, and blood rained.

At the same time, four of his men also flew out, but a few swords killed the remaining two knights.

Zhang Guo lifted the curtain, and suddenly a white light flashed, and a sword stabbed from the carriage, quite fierce and fast.

Zhang Guo was not nervous, he turned his body slightly to the side, and slashed over, the sword was split away, and the man exclaimed in surprise and shrank back.

"Yuan Shao!"

Zhang Guo smiled fiercely, he was extremely happy to be able to slaughter a child of a great family, he really didn't want to end this interesting game so quickly. Just as he was smug, a hurried whistling sound came from behind him.

"Whoosh!"

The speed came too fast, Zhang Guo didn't have time to react at all, it was a pain in his back, a heart-rending pain, so that Zhang Guo knew that he had been hit by an arrow, and hurriedly adjusted the muscles behind him to jam the arrow, preventing the arrow from further damage.

"Everyone, be careful, Tiqi is coming!" Zhang Guo shouted in a muffled voice, and fell off the carriage with a crooked body. (Ti Cai: The cavalry responsible for the security of Luoyang)

"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”

Immediately after, more than a dozen arrows flew in, and with Zhang Guo's reminder, the four subordinates all dodged nimbly.

When Yuan Shao saw it, he was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly drove wildly, waving his hand and shouting for help, seeing those tiqi running over, the joy of the rest of his life in his heart could not be controlled, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Suddenly there was a pain in his chest, Yuan Shao looked down in disbelief, and at this moment, a blade came out of his chest, and his consciousness quickly fell into darkness......

Zhang Guo saw that he had succeeded in the blow, and his heart was overjoyed, and he and his four subordinates quickly disappeared into the darkness and disappeared.

The horse was still galloping, but its owner had already fallen to the ground. A burst of fire flashed, and a group of cavalry ran to Yuan Shao's body with torches, and several people jumped off their horses and looked around the corpse.

One of the leaders had a heavy face and said in a deep voice: "Who could this person be, and why did those men in black assassinate him?" ”

One of his subordinates frowned and looked at it for a while, then his heart suddenly jumped, and he hesitated: "Look at the carriage that ran just now, it seems to be an apprentice of Yuan Company, this person can't be ......."

Du Bo suddenly gasped, this is terrible, how good is this, that Yuan family is the fourth generation and the third duke, the lintel is prominent, and Yuan Kui is even more official and worships Situ, which is caused by a little Du Bo. If this person had been killed a long time ago, it would have been none of his business, but he killed him right under his nose.

When Du Bo was upset, suddenly someone under his command shouted: "Who is it? ”

Everyone immediately stretched out their bows and arrows, and stared at the darkness ahead.

"Don't get me wrong, don't get me wrong!"

Two people came out of the darkness, Gu was dressed in a brocade robe, with a graceful face, obviously a child of the family.

When the two approached, Du Bo waved his hand, and several sergeants next to him quickly surrounded the two of them, and drew their knives to face the two.

The two of them didn't care, and one of the handsome men with white faces looked at the corpse lying on the ground with a pale face, and his body trembled slightly.

Dubo's eyes were cold, and he shouted, "Who are you?" Why here? ”

"In Xia Cao Cao, this is Yuan Shao." Another young man, who was rather short, said unhurriedly.
