The sudden arrow and the fall of Shun Bao caused a great confusion among the surrounding guards, and dozens of guards began to mess up, and at this time, more than thirty masked men dressed in black suddenly appeared around them, each holding a weapon and forming several triangular formations to kill them.

"Enemy attack...... Enemy Attack ...... Protect your adults! ”

There was a mess in front of the garrison mansion, and there had never been such a thing in the Yingzhou Mansion since Yue Yang was the garrison, and for a while after losing the command, these guards did everything. Some of the guards hurriedly loaded the firebolt with bayonets, some wanted to reload the firebolt, and some ran to Shunbao's side to protect him, and there was no one to organize these guards effectively.

"Kill ......"

The three men in black who rushed to the front raised their long knives and slashed at one of the guards in front of them who was loading the firecracker, and the guard was caught off guard by surprise, and half of his neck was cut off, and the whole person fell to the ground without saying a word. After the man in black succeeded, he did not continue to chase and kill the surrounding guards, but shouted in a low voice: "Don't fall in love with the war, quickly kill that dog officer!" ”

"Yes!"

"Kill!"

The guards who were caught off guard had no way to resist effectively at this time, only more than a dozen bayonet guards formed three or four diamond-shaped formations to protect Shunbao in the middle, and Shunbao fell to the ground at this time, but he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

At this moment, a man in black at the head shouted: "Everyone, hurry up, don't let them delay time." After speaking, the man in black struggled to kill forward, and more than a dozen guards were desperately trying to stop these people, and the remaining twenty or so guards were all struggling to support under the attack of the man in black, except for more than a dozen people who fell to the ground.

While the guards were struggling to support, Shunbao, who had fallen to the ground, slowly opened his eyes, but as soon as he woke up, he heard the sound of fighting in his ears.

"Grass...... Lao Tzu was plotted! This was the first thought that Shun Bao had when he woke up, and then he looked down and saw an arrow in his chest and a sharp pain in his chest, and Shun Bao knew that his ribs were probably either broken or cracked.

"These bastards!"

After struggling to get up, Shunbao shouted loudly: "Don't panic, everyone. Formation, all formation! ”

As soon as Shunbao's voice was remembered, both sides who were fighting were shocked. The difference is that Shunbao's guards were surprised and delighted, while the black-clothed people around them were shocked and angry, and the black-clothed people led by them were also a little panicked, "What's going on, I use the most powerful crossbow in the army, how can this Yue Shunbao get up if I am hit by an arrow?" ”

At this time, Shunbao also reluctantly pulled out the arrow inserted in his chest, and found that the arrow made of stainless steel had been knocked out of shape, and his face, which was already pale in pain, became even paler. I rejoiced in my heart: "If it weren't for the young master who instructed me to strengthen my vigilance when I went out before leaving, and I deliberately added an extra steel plate behind the cuirplate, I'm afraid that today next year will be my sacrifice day." It's just that what the hell is going on with those guards in the house, why can't such a loud noise come out? ”

But now is not the time to scold, seeing that the people who came were lined up in an almost standard triangular charge formation and constantly impacting the military formation in front of him, Shun Bao hated it even more in his heart, he pulled out a short gun from his waist, and pulled the trigger on a man in black in front of him with the pain.

"Bang!"

Only a dull gunshot rang out, and a man in black who was fighting very fiercely suddenly took his whole body. The whole person stopped, he looked blankly ahead, and then fell to the ground.

After the gunshots rang out, there seemed to be a series of shouts from inside the garrison. It was as if someone was shouting something like "walk the water".

Shun Bao, who fired a shot, casually inserted the weapon back into his waist, and immediately pulled out the long sword at his waist in front of him, and when he just wanted to kill it, he felt a sharp pain in the rib break in his chest.

"Grass. This damn wound, since he couldn't pick up his weapon and go out to fight with people, he had to take out the short gun again and start loading ammunition. He took out the paper ration ammunition and stuffed it into the chamber of the gun, used a pestle to solidify it, poured a little gunpowder into the powder magazine, then loaded the gun and opened the bracket, and after a long period of drumming, he shot another shot at a man in black in front of him. ”

Shooting at a place of less than ten meters is naturally an infallible reason, and another man in black was knocked to the ground, and at this time, after this fight, the man in black has killed several guards who are protecting Shunbao around, at this time there are only five or six guards in front of him, but there are still more than ten people in black around, and Shunbao can't move because of broken ribs, so the situation is very dangerous.

But at this time, Tokyo here finally alarmed the garrison, and a team of guards finally rushed out of it, and these guards did not fight with the men in black after they came out, but immediately raised the guns in their hands and aimed them at the men in black, and they simply put a platoon of guns.

"Bang ......"

A low platoon of gunfire rang out, and a man in black who was frantically besieging Shunbao staggered, his head suddenly burst open like an exploding watermelon, and red blood and white brains splashed on the guards who were fighting with him with bayonets, and his whole body stood for a moment before he fell to the ground, and around him, there were also several blood holes of different sizes on the bodies of five or six people in black, and then he was killed on the spot.

The sudden blow made those crazy black-clothed people wake up immediately, and the black-clothed man led by him looked at Shunbao, who was holding his chest and looking at him, his eyes were full of unwilling pain, he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Brothers, you can't escape left and right, let's fight with them...... Kill! ”

"Kill ......"

These black-clothed men held their weapons high and killed Shunbao completely regardless of casualties, but how could the guards who had already arrived give him this opportunity, with the sound of another round of guns, the remaining seven or eight black-clothed people fell to the ground one after another, and even the black-clothed man who was the leader was shot in the lower abdomen, covering his abdomen and slowly kneeling on the ground.

At this time, many guards surrounded him, and the bayonets were pointed at him. Just waited for Shun Bao to give an order and stabbed him into a hornet's nest.

Shun Bao covered his chest and slowly walked to the man in black, looked at him, and endured the bitter shouting: "Tell the identity and the mastermind behind it, this official may be able to open the net and let you live." ”

"Hahaha...... You, a dog officer, still want me to surrender, you are delusional! You wait, our king will definitely avenge me!" ”

Seeing the crazy eyes of the leader of the men in black and the blue-gray intestines flowing from his abdomen, Shun Bao sighed lightly and retreated and said softly: "Kill him!" ”

As Shun Bao's words fell, the bayonets of several guards stabbed into the body of the leader of the men in black at the same time, and when the leader of the men in black fell. The guards pulled down the scarf from the face of the man in black and found that it was a middle-aged strong man in his thirties with a beard.

Shun Bao was silent with a calm face on the corpses in the surrounding places, and among the guards who had just come out to reinforce, the first captain walked up to Shun Bao with some apprehension and bowed down and said: "My lord, the backyard of the Shicai Garrison Mansion suddenly caught fire, and the villain was busy rushing to the backyard to put out the fire, and did not come to help in time, I hope that the Lord will forgive me." ”

"Humph!"

Shun Bao snorted coldly in displeasure, he was not in the mood to blame this chief at this time, although these sergeants were no longer recruits. But what they had taken over before was the training of large-scale battles between the two armies, and they lacked the ability to respond to such small-scale emergencies, and they were also responsible, they were still too careless, and they didn't expect the enemy to be so crazy.

"I'm careless!" Shun Bao blamed himself as he strode towards the garrison.

Soon, the news of Shunbao's assassination immediately spread throughout the Yingzhou capital, and the Yingzhou capital also began to lower the city gate and began martial law, and the entire Yingzhou capital began to boil......

The night was gloomy. The courtyard of the garrison was heavily guarded, and due to the assassination during the day, the garrison was doubled in size today.

Yue Laifu sat on the edge of the bed, looking at his son who was lying on the bed and the doctor who was checking his pulse on the side, his face was so heavy that he could almost drip water.

Long. The doctor stood up and said to Yue Laifu: "General Yue's only ribs are cracked, and the others are fine. After about two months of rest, it will be fine. ”

"What, two months!" Shunbao, who was lying on the bed, was anxious, "Doctor." There's a lot of stuff to do here, and I'm going to do it, isn't two months too long? ”

The doctor shook his head: "General Yue, it is necessary to break your muscles and bones for a hundred days, and rest for two months, otherwise once your ribs crack again, it will be troublesome." ”

"But ......"

"It's nothing, you just listen to the doctor." Yue Laifu, who was on the side, interrupted his son's words arbitrarily, turned his head to the doctor and said, "Doctor, please prescribe medicine, and treat it as soon as you can." ”

The doctor didn't hesitate, and quickly prescribed the prescription and handed it to Yue Laifu, and after sending the doctor away, Yue Laifu said with a calm face: "Can you be sure that someone in the army did today's thing?" ”

"Of course you can be sure!" Shun Bao said angrily: "Your son and I have been a soldier for so many years, those who are soldiers I can smell their smell with my eyes closed, today when fighting with them, they used the method of joint attack in the army, although later the leader shouted the name of King Chuang, but they really regarded me as a fool, Li Zicheng was far away in Henan at this time, and was fighting with Lu Xiangsheng, how could he have this leisure to assassinate me, besides, these people are the elite of the army at a glance, if Li Zicheng is such an elite subordinate, he will be willing to send to assassinate me?" It's really worthless to be an elite. ”

"In this way, it is certain that the person sent by Hong Chengchou is undoubted." Yue Laifu said with a calm face: "These days, you take care of your injuries, and the city defense affairs are managed by the people below, I think the young grandmother will definitely have arrangements." ”

………………

The assassination of Shunbao reached Hai Lanzhu's ears the next day, looking at the urgent information sent, Hai Lanzhu sighed lightly, "This Hong Chengchou is really becoming more and more unscrupulous, and even the assassination is such a thing." ”

At this time, Hai Lanzhu sat in front of several officials who Yueyang specially stayed in Hunyuan Prefecture, the newly appointed Hailou, the prefect of Hunyuan Prefecture, Chen Zhi, the director of the Civil Affairs Department, Chu Di, the defense officer, and Jiang He, the deputy director of the Youshan Division.

Looking at the calm expression on Hailan Zhuqiao's face, Chen Zhi couldn't help but say: "Madam, at this time, the Hou Ye is fighting with Huang Taiji outside the Guan, and at this time, the North Road should be headed by stability, if you provoke trouble at this time, I am afraid that the great cause of the Hou Ye will be unfavorable." ”

As soon as Chen Zhi finished speaking, Chu Di on the side retorted: "What's the disadvantage, everyone is riding on our necks to shit, if we still endure it, won't we become a shrunken turtle, according to me, we have to fight back fiercely." Didn't Hong Chengchou send 6,000 garrisons in Shaguo County, well, let's disarm all these people, and then press them to the mines of Yingzhou Capital to mine, I think he Hong Chengchou still dares to come out again! ”

Soldiers are generally short-tempered, and Chu Di is no exception. As the saying goes, a soldier is a general's courage, and now he is stationed in Hengshan Pass, not far from Hunyuan Prefecture, and there are more than 2,000 soldiers under his command, and he has a lot of confidence to speak.

Chen Zhi was shocked when he heard this: "No, now there are rumors in the imperial court that our North Road is a feudal town, and if we use swords against Pao Ze again, it will become a thief." ”

Chu Di shouted irritably: "Then what do you say?" Now that they have all come to the door, today he dares to assassinate Yue Shoubei, tomorrow they dare to assassinate Madame, the day after tomorrow I am afraid that they will even dare to assassinate Hou Ye, do you still want to reason with these people? ”

Chen Zhi was silent. Over the years, all of them have been deeply branded with Yueyang, and the North Road is already a glory and a loss, if Yueyang loses, they will definitely not have a good fruit to eat, and after staying in the North Road for so long, their sense of belonging to the imperial court has been low to a very low Cheng dù, even if Yueyang wants to take them to rebel now, I am afraid that no one will object, after all, their interests have been firmly tied to Yueyang.

Hai Lanzhu set his sights on Hailou, the current prefect of Hunyuan Prefecture. Hailou pondered for a long time before taking a deep breath and said, "Madam, look at the good fortune now that our Governor Hong has put the knife on our necks. If we don't fight back, I'm afraid that when Hou Ye returns, the entire North Road will not be ours. ”

When everyone heard this, their whole body was shocked, they didn't expect Hailou's estimate of the form to be so pessimistic. Originally, they thought that Hong Chengchou was making some small moves to fight for some benefits, but no one thought that Hong Chengchou's courage would be so big, and he actually wanted to swallow the entire North Road in one gulp.

Everyone was silent, and in the end, everyone set their eyes on Hai Lanzhu. This is the supreme person designated by Yue Yang when he is not there.

Hai Lanzhu's face also changed, and her little hand on the table inadvertently tapped on the table, a habit she only had after marrying Yue Yang. Yue Yang has this habit on weekdays. After marrying Yue Yang, she also unknowingly contracted this problem.

Although Hai Lanzhu didn't look up at this time, she also knew that everyone was looking at her, if she had changed to an ordinary Han woman, she would have been ashamed to see so many men staring at her, but what kind of person is Hai Lanzhu, she grew up on the Horqin grassland, her personality is stronger than that of ordinary women, plus she has been in charge of the two powerful intelligence departments of Youchuan Division and Youshan Division over the years, and her ability to pick up is no longer under ordinary officials, and her character still carries the boldness and decisiveness of the grassland people. So she quickly made a decision.

"What the sea prefect said is very reasonable, now it is not a question of how the imperial court views us, but they have forced us into a dead end, if we don't fight back, I'm afraid what awaits us is the fate of being pressed into a prisoner car and sent to the capital by Tiqi."

Speaking of this, Hai Lanzhu's eyes had a hint of determination, and everyone was also shocked, the more they thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible, now the court has long regarded the North Road as an outlier, and if they become prisoners, there is only a dead end waiting for them, thinking of this, everyone's eyes showed a trace of ruthlessness, and people who are forced to a dead end often burst out with an unexpected motivation.

Chu Di sneered: "Madam, you can give the order, this time they must let them taste the power of our firearms......"

Shaguo County is a small county seat, the resident population of the county is less than 3,000 households, about 10,000 people, all of them make a living from agriculture on weekdays, these days there are a lot of soldiers in the county, the whole Shaguo County is crowded. However, what the people are most worried about has not happened, the military discipline of these soldiers is okay, and it is not too harmful to the local people, but stealing a chicken and touching a dog on weekdays, and laughing at things like a big girl and a little daughter-in-law by the way are not counted, even so, these soldiers are already good in the eyes of the local people.

The county order of Shaguo County is named Jiang Gan, of course, this Jiang Gan is not Jiang Gan, he can't beat the person who was slammed by Zhou Yu during the Three Kingdoms period.

But these days, our Jiang Gan Jiang County Commander is very angry, he sat in a pavilion in the back garden of the county government and said hatefully to a general in front of him: "General Hong, this official doesn't care what you are doing here, but your 6,000 army has been stationed here for several days, and the people are complaining about this, this official is bound to speak for the people as the respect of a county, if the general does not quickly take the army out of the county seat, the county will write to the court to impeach you." ”

The general standing in front of Jiang Xian Ling slowly turned his head, this person was awe-inspiring Hong Antong, who was ordered by Hong Chengchou to deal with the vanguard of the North Road.

I saw Hong Antong smile indifferently: "Jiang Zhixian, this official is on the orders of Hong Duchen, what can you say to Hong Duchen, but the six thousand troops of this official are stationed here, and you must prepare all the food and grass supply, otherwise this official will not mind using military regulations to punish you." ”

"You ......"

Jiang Gan pointed at Hong An and was so angry that he couldn't speak...... (To be continued......)
