Chapter 149: Assassination (Adding to the Sails of the Book Friend's Departure)

"Woohoo!"

The sound of the eight-ox crossbow arrow breaking through the air used to sound exciting, but now it is like a magic sound.

With a terrifying scream, many faint cold rays flew from the rooftops on both sides of the street, rushing towards the long street.

"Damn it!"

Ma Luan's pupils shrank suddenly, and at the moment when the scream sounded, he had already grabbed the Mo knife by the saddle, and the sword light shone like cold lightning in the twilight, smashing out several giant arrows several feet long that flew in front of him.

Ma Yong and Ma Qiang are also good brothers, and they all reacted very quickly, grabbing Mo Dao and breaking a few giant arrows flying over.

However, the other athletes could not react like this, and several huge arrows with iron heads and wooden poles several feet long roared into the crowd, nailing more than a dozen of their own soldiers and their mounts to the ground!

Ma Lan squinted at the roofs on both sides, and when he saw some figures, he was very angry in his heart.

Who would have thought that in Chang'an City, someone would dare to attack him, and even use the Eight Bull Crossbow!

These people were obviously not familiar with the standard eight-bull crossbow in the army, and there were more than 20 huge arrows fired, but half of them landed in the open space. If it weren't for that, the loss on Ma Lan's side would only be greater.

After the Eight Bull Crossbow flew out, there were feathered arrows shooting out from the roof, but they no longer posed a threat to the soldiers who were covered in bright light armor.

Ma Lan shouted angrily: "Shoot!" As soon as he grabbed the Yuan Rong crossbow from behind, he moved it without hesitation, and ten steel crossbow arrows flew out, knocking over several people on the roof on the left.

These pro-soldiers were all selected from the veterans of a hundred battles, and they were not panicked when the incident happened in a hurry, and they quickly drew their Yuan Rong crossbows from behind one by one, and began to shoot back at the roofs around them. A rain of arrows swept like a storm towards the sneak attackers on the rooftops of the surrounding houses.

The perverted weapon of the Yuanrong crossbow showed its edge for the first time in Chang'an City. The sneak attackers obviously didn't expect the enemy's counterattack to be so ferocious, and suddenly there were screams on the roof, and one by one the sneak attackers fell down one after another.

All of them were fired in a salvo of ten arrows with one bow without the slightest reservation. After shooting, the rest of the athletes quickly reloaded, Gaochang County Bo Li Zhengde took off his frighteningly large seven-stone bow from the saddle, exhaled and fired several arrows in succession, shooting down a few more sneak attackers who were still standing on the roof, and the remaining few people jumped over the roof in a panic and disappeared behind the roof.

At this time, Ma Lan had quickly taken off the Mingguang armor, jumped onto the roof with the Mo knife, and rushed to the back of the roof in a few steps. Several sneak attackers saw Ma Lan chasing after him, and after looking at each other, they actually surrounded him with a sneer.

"Let's die for a certain family!" Ma Xuan shouted angrily, and the Mo knife flew like snowflakes, instantly cutting several people into two pieces, and then turned around and stood on the ridge. At this time, on the roof on the other side, the two brothers Ma Yong and Ma Qiang had also taken off their armor and climbed up, but the sneak attackers did not fight, but fled quickly along the roof.

"Don't chase it!" Ma Lan shouted in a deep voice.

These two brothers are brave, but they are both war generals, and they don't understand the means of rangers, if they chase after them rashly, they are afraid that it will not be good.

On the roofs on both sides, more than a dozen athletes came up to stand guard, and the rest of the athletes rushed into the houses on the street to search for possible hidden enemies. Ma Lan stood on the ridge of the roof, looking at the eight-bull crossbow lying crooked at his feet, his face was extremely gloomy.

This kind of sharp weapon in the army was actually used to attack him! On the first day I arrived in Chang'an, I encountered such a thing!

More than 50 bodies were left behind by the attackers, all of whom were thrown into the streets by the athletes. On Anxi Jian'er's side, there were thirteen athletes killed in the battle, five were wounded, and more than a dozen armored war horses were shot and killed.

"General, all the people inside are dead!" The athlete who entered the house to search came out to report.

Ma Ling jumped off the roof of the house and entered several houses to take a look, and saw a corpse that had long been stiffened. The people who lived in it, young and old, were all killed, and the death was extremely horrific.

This is Yankang Fang, where he lived when he was a child. He still knows the faces of several of those who were killed. Looking at these innocent people who died tragically, Ma Lu's heart became even more angry.

"General, look at this! This was found from the corpse! ”

Walking back down the street, a soldier approached and handed over a bloody waist tag.

Ma Lu took a look, his face was instantly gloomy to the extreme, and his eyes flashed with coldness.

Ma Yong took it and took a look, and there were five small characters engraved on the waist card, "Fufeng County Marquis's Mansion".

"Big brother! What's going on? Why Fufu County Marquis? Ma Yong wondered.

"Yang Guozhong! Yang Guozhong! Ma Luan's eyes showed a cold light, and he gritted his teeth and scolded angrily.

"Yang Guozhong? He's your father-in-law, big brother! Could it be that he did this? Why did he deal with you, big brother? Ma Yong was confused.

Ma Ling snorted coldly.

Ma Yong and Ma Qiang are not on the Qinzheng Building today, so they don't understand what happened. In order to monopolize the power of the prime minister, Yang Guozhong did everything he could, and even took out this kind of unpopular means!

The Fufeng County Hou Mansion was bought by the Yang family, and the people of the Fufeng County Hou Mansion were all from the Yang family except for the concubines they sent over. These guys are clearly Yang Guozhong's subordinates.

These people chose this place to attack themselves, and they were calculating. A few hundred steps away is your old house, and you are about to get home, so everyone should let their guard down!

Seven eight-oxen crossbows were thrown from the roof of the house, none of which were yet numbered, and at first glance they looked like they had just been created by the prisoner. To be able to get such a prohibited item, who else can there be besides Yang Guozhong?

Ma Lan could even think of Yang Guozhong's reaction after the failure of the attack, which was nothing more than someone else framing him and deliberately leaving such obvious flaws.

Looking at the corpses of more than a dozen Anxi Jian'er who were tied to horseback, Ma Lan's eyes were full of murderous intent!

The last thing he wanted to see was the death of the Han family's son. These seven-foot-tall Angzang men did not die on the battlefield of opening up territory for the Tang Dynasty, but they died here, at the hands of Xiaoxiao!

……

More tokens were searched, and there were more than a dozen in total, all of which were the waist cards of the Fufeng County Marquis's Mansion. Obviously, these guys are none other than the Fufeng County Marquis Mansion.

The leather ropes were ready-made, tying all the bodies of the attackers to the back of the horses, and tying the bodies of the brothers who died in the war to the back of the horses, and Ma Lan shouted angrily: "Go! Go home with so-and-so! All the war horses accelerated at the same time, galloping towards the depths of Yankang Fang.

Ma Lu's father and ancestors are all eunuchs, and the location of the old mansion is the best part of Yankangfang, dozens of high-headed horses galloped over, dragging corpses behind them, dragging dark red blood stains on the ground. The pedestrians on the side of the road who had never seen such a posture were so frightened that they hurriedly avoided it.

When I arrived at the county marquis's mansion, the county marquis's mansion was brightly lit, and several guards stood outside the door with their chests and bellies, and they looked arrogant with horizontal knives in their hands.

"The county king is back!" Seeing the horse-shaped banner in front of their heads, the guards cheered in unison, and one of the guards had already run over to hold Ma Lu's reins.

The door opened suddenly, and several beautiful maids walked out with a picturesque girl in green surrounded by laughter.

Although her heart was full of anger, after seeing the girl's appearance clearly, Ma Lan still couldn't help but lose her mind for a moment, her heart was really the best in the world, and what Gao Qianqian said was not a lie.

The girl in green looked no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, her flawless little face looked a little immature, and she stood there without the slightest smell of fireworks, as if she had come out of a picture scroll.

The girl looked at Ma Lan a little cowardly, pinching the corner of her clothes and wanting to speak, but she didn't know what to say, her little face suddenly turned red for no reason, and the shyness of this moment added a little more color.

"Get out of here!" Ma Ling snorted coldly, slapped the guard in front of the horse, and then jumped off the horse.

The girl in green raised her thin eyebrows, and her starry eyes showed a look of surprise. Ma Luan's face was gloomy, and he led the war horse and walked towards the gate.

At this time, the guards saw clearly that there was a corpse tied behind Ma Lan's saddle, and a corpse was dragged behind the war horse, all of which were extremely frightened, and several maids screamed in fright.

"This is a certain family, brothers come in!" Ma Xuan said, pulling the war horse and going straight forward, the little face of the girl in green showed a look of shock, and silently got out of the way.

Beyond the shadow wall is a huge courtyard, and tonight the lights in the county marquis's mansion are bright, and everything can be seen very clearly. The Anxi athletes dragged the body of the attacker into the courtyard, tied the horses to the side under the command of Ma Lan, and then lined up the bodies of the attackers one by one in the compound.

The girl in green looked at the corpses, her expression became a little strange, she bit her moist red lips lightly, walked up to Ma Lan prettyly, glanced at Ma Lan and said softly: "Husband...... I have already seen you when you were cruising around Chang'an City today. My name is Lady, and I'm—"

"I know who you are!" Ma Ling smiled coldly, pointed to the dozens of corpses on the ground and said, "I hope you can give me an explanation for this matter!" ”

With a wave of his hand, a bloody token flew over.

The girl in green stretched out her hand and grabbed it, her posture was extremely graceful, Ma Lan's pupils shrank slightly, and Sen Ran sneered: "I didn't expect you to be a practitioner!" ”

The girl in green frowned and looked at the token, and said softly: "This is indeed our family's token, and there are more than a dozen people here who are our family's guards." What the hell is going on? Why did you get into trouble with them? ”

"You ask me why I'm in conflict with them!"

Ma Luan's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and he looked at the green-clothed girl and sneered: "Not long after I entered Yankang Fang, I was attacked, and the enemy even used the eight bull crossbows in the army!" I have almost killed all of my enemies, and a dozen of my brothers have died. These guys on the ground did this, and I came home to find out if this matter has anything to do with you! ”

The girl in green was stunned, shook her head and said, "Our guards attacked you?" How could such a thing happen! But it has nothing to do with me. You are the husband of the young lady, why did the young lady kill you? (To be continued.) )
