Chapter 68: Assassination

Diao Chan and Lin Ling lived in the Great Wall military camp, and it was already the third day.

In the past three days, Diao Chan took Lin Ling all over this place, and also let Lin Ling see what a real war is.

In fact, the two came to find Mulan, and when they talked about the reason, it was Lin Ling who killed someone.

Murong Gongzi.

Prince Murong is the youngest son of the city lord of Xianyang City in the Qin State. Deeply loved by the city lord.

The killing shocked the whole city. The lord of the city was furious, and killed hundreds of the people present.

In order to ask Lin Ling's whereabouts.

Lin Ling, who knew that he was in trouble, hurriedly went to find his master Diao Chan, Diao Chan didn't say anything when he heard it, and took Lin Ling to the border of Qin State, the territory of Mulan.

Mulan and Diao Chan have been friends for many years.

When friends are in trouble, Mulan naturally helps.

"Murong Heng, the city lord of Xianyang City, is as his name suggests. Rampant and domineering, deep force. He is one of the best celebrities around the first emperor Yingzheng. It's nothing, though, I didn't take him seriously. Chan'er, your sister Ling'er is safest to stay with me. ”

That's what Mulan said.

On this day and night, Diao Chan went to Mulan's camp to discuss important matters.

Diao Chan saw that there was no soldier guarding the camp tent, and his heart was very strange, and when he walked to the door of the camp tent, his eyes were sharp, and he found something strange inside the camp tent.

Someone poisoned.

Diao Chan was on alert for a moment and wanted to take out the dagger from his arms, but suddenly remembered that his fish intestine dagger had been given to a person.

I had to pinch my hand bones, revealing the sharp claw blade.

The situation in the tent surprised Diao Chan.

The candles in the tent are bright and transparent, and the light and shadow are fluttering. I saw a large half-person high bathtub in the middle, and Mulan was sitting in the bathtub, revealing a solemn face, and a pair of originally bright phoenix eyes showed a tired look.

Around her was a sparkling and almost transparent curtain of water, and outside of the curtain of water, three masked men in black stood in three directions, waving their daggers and paddling towards the water curtain. Each time there was a "whoosh" sound, cutting a hole in the water curtain, but the opening was immediately surrounded by a layer of water vapor, and then the water curtain returned to its original shape.

"Double cultivator!" Seeing the uncertain blue flames that appeared on the dagger, Diao Chan was taken aback.

No wonder those soldiers are gone, they have already been killed. But how did these guys infiltrate the heavily guarded camp and find exactly where Mulan was? Diao Chan's eyebrows furrowed slightly.

It turned out that just as Mulan was soaking in the hot water, three double cultivators suddenly appeared in front of her. In a hurry, the defenseless Mulan could only form a water barrier and block the three uninvited guests from the water curtain, hoping that they would retreat.

Mulan is not good at magic, and weapons are not around. But the three people who came to assassinate turned out to be the peak dead soldiers of the dual cultivation of martial arts and demons! If it weren't for the fact that Mulan happened to be in the water and used a large bucket of water to prop up the enchantment, the consequences would be really unimaginable.

Seeing that the water enchantment formed by Mulan was constantly shrinking, Diao Chan was secretly frightened. On the mainland, there are not many double cultivators like this, because only highly gifted people can become double cultivators after rigorous training. Because of their high martial arts and terrifying demonic forbidden arts, they have a high reputation in the assassination industry.

Generally speaking, a dual cultivator can complete the task very well. Seeing three here at once shows that they attach great importance to Mulan. But Mulan's performance also shows that she does live up to the title of the strongest god of war, in such a situation, she is highly poisonous, unarmed, and extremely passive with one against three, and can support it for so long.

Seeing that Hua Mulan couldn't support it for long, her face was pale behind the water curtain, and beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her smooth forehead, and her bright phoenix eyes were even more dim. The curtain of water looked crumbling.

However, the energy of the three main attackers seemed to be almost exhausted, all of them were out of breath, and their sword-wielding hands became heavy. However, seeing hope, they still tried to wave the dagger in their hands. After all, they have the advantage on the scene.

Diao Chan's right hand took out the deadly poison of the Burial Flower Valley from his arms, and the peach blossom burial. Pinch these powders in your hands.

As long as a person touches a little of this poison, his whole body will be extremely itchy, ulcerate, and after a while, it will turn into meat crumbs and drift away with the wind.

A faint wisp of dust began to spread in the tent. Gradually, the three people who were wildly wielding the dagger suddenly felt that the fatigue on their bodies was deepening, and at the same time, there was an extremely numb and itchy feeling on their bodies, and they couldn't help but slow down the hand wielding the dagger, and the cyan flame on the tip of the sword also disappeared.

Diao Chan slowly walked in from outside the tent.

looked at the three men in black coldly.

"Chan'er......" Hua Mulan called weakly, the water enchantment disappeared in an instant due to the lack of spiritual power, Diao Chan saw this, rushed over with an arrow step, and hugged Mulan.

"Ahh It's so itchy! ”

The three men in black couldn't bear it anymore and cried out in pain.

"Mulan, what's going on?" Diao Chan looked at Mulan like this, and a trace of distress flashed in her eyes.

"You're poisoned."

Diao Chan looked solemn, and instantly took out an immortal grass from his arms and stuffed it into Mulan's mouth.

"Chan'er, you...... I can't eat ......" Mulan knew the rarity of the undead grass, and when she saw this, she hurriedly excused herself.

"Give me something to eat, Mulan." Where did the highly poisonous Mulan resist Diao Chan, and the whole immortal grass was forcibly stuffed into Diao Chan's mouth.

At this time, a man in black who was sitting weakly on the ground picked up the dagger with great difficulty and stabbed at the sable cicada.

At this time, Diao Chan, who was in full swing, waved his backhand, and the blood flashed, and the head of the black-clothed masked man rolled off in a ruckus, and was cut into five petals by the claw blade. Diao Chan didn't stop doing anything, and with a wave of his claw blade, he cut off the head of the second masked man. The last masked man screamed when he saw his decapitated companion beheaded like this.

Watching this terrible woman walk towards her with blood dripping from her right hand, her face was murderous. But she was weak again, and there was a trace of fear in her eyes, and she shook her head desperately, wanting to retreat.

At this time, Mulan opened her eyes and shouted: "Leave a living mouth and ask for a confession!" There was a hint of weariness in her voice.

Diao Chan snorted.

Then he brought the masked man to Mulan, sat down next to Mulan, and treated her with poison.

Mulan shouted to the masked man, "Who are you?" ”

Seeing that the masked man refused to answer, Diao Chan raised her eyebrows and picked off her masked towel with her claw blade.

"Still a pretty little fox." Diao Chan's eyes were sharp, and she saw that this girl looked very delicate, with willow eyebrows and big eyes, a thin small mouth, and a pointed chin. The girl looked at him stubbornly, still not saying a word.

Diao Chan shook the girl's face with the claw blade that was still dripping blood, and said slowly, "You are very beautiful." But I wonder if you'll still be so beautiful after cutting your nose off? ”

The girl's beautiful face twitched, and the cruelty of Diao Chan before proved that his words were definitely not a joke. The thought of having no nose on his beautiful face makes people shudder. At this time, the tip of Ye Diao's sword had reached the tip of her nose. I felt a chill, but ......

The girl looked at Diao Chan and let out an eerie laugh.

"Oops!"

Diao Chan's expression changed in shock, and he quickly dodged and carried Mulan out of the account.

As soon as she rushed out of the tent, she heard a earth-shattering sound inside the tent, and the girl blew herself up.

……

And on the far other side of the battlefield.

Jace has had a very bad premonition since this morning, and as a veteran of his life, his premonition honed by a long battle is generally very effective, and it can almost be said that it has been tried and tested.

And at this time, there will be an inexplicable sense of hopelessness and frustration like when he was in high spirits, but was defeated by an unexpected enemy, and suffered the biggest setback of his life. It gave him a chill.

"Will you be defeated by that woman today?" He walked into battle with such doubts, and became more and more cautious in a battle of wits and courage with the respectable woman opposite.

As in the previous battles, after the battles, both sides suffered casualties, and neither took much advantage.

"Not for this? Or is it because people are getting older, and they feel worse? ”

When Jace returned to camp with his army, he realized that he was right, and that his troubles were only now beginning.

"General Jace, thank you!"

As soon as he entered the tent, he was greeted by a handsome and outstanding man, this man was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and his majestic figure as a lion was vividly displayed in a well-fitting samurai suit, and a man like him should be very popular, especially the handsome smile on his face, which was enough to melt the heart of any young girl.

Looking at this guy who is very popular with women, the old general Jace frowned and said unceremoniously: "Brown, what are you doing here?" ”

Brown smiled slightly, still in his elegant manner, and said, "General Jace, you don't seem to welcome me here!" But the young general is acting on orders and causing you trouble! ”

"I know it's going to cause trouble for others, so I have to stay away, what a nasty guy!" Jace muttered in his heart, and couldn't help but fight back, "Whose order is it?" I don't think it will be His Majesty the King, it will be the Fourth Princess who sent you. ”

Brown suddenly said solemnly: "General Jace, you seem to be very dissatisfied with this dispatch of troops, you only know blind defense, and you have not been able to compete with the Great Wall Guards for a long time, Your Majesty does not want to see such a thing." ”

Seeing this guy carry the king out again, Jace was even more annoyed, and he said coldly: "Don't you know the strength of the god of war Mulan, and the consequences of attacking rashly will be unimaginable." ”

"But no matter how powerful she is, she is just a woman, how can the general grow the morale of others and destroy his own prestige! Our Scott army is the best in the world, and it has more troops than Fast,......"

Listening to his nonsense without any knowledge of the art of war, Jace interrupted impatiently and said, "The battle between the two armies is not like talking on paper, and victory will be won by talking. The victory or defeat of a war is not a comparison of numbers, this is the first lesson in the art of war. ”

Hearing Jace sarcastically mock him for not knowing the art of war, Brown's face turned blue as it hit him in the sore spot. He rose to prominence because of his extraordinary skills and dignified appearance, and was favored by the princess, but because of his humble background, he never received formal education in the art of war, and he didn't seem to have much talent for using soldiers.

If the person concerned has a correct understanding of this, he may not be looked down upon by others, but he likes to express his opinions on the use of soldiers, which provokes the generals of the DPRK and China to look down on him, thinking that this man does not know the art of war at all except for conspiracies. "I am here on the orders of His Majesty, and His Majesty has asked us to attack with all our strength and strive to defeat the Great Wall Guards in one fell swoop,......"

"It's not Your Majesty's intention, it's your own thoughts!"

"Why do you have such thoughts, this is too unconscious of being a minister!"

"As an old man who has served His Majesty for generations, he will naturally distinguish right from wrong, and he is definitely more confident in the way of being a minister than some people!"

"Who are you talking about?"

"Only those who have a weak heart will ......"

"You dare to disobey the king!?" Brown snapped the case, his eyes wide with rage. He realized that he had no chance of winning with the old man, so he immediately changed the subject and brought the conversation back to the point.

"Oh, then tell me, how do you go all out and rush through in line like this?" Jace didn't care, hitting his opponent's vital point accurately.

"Of course not!" Brown said secretly: "It's coming!" Luckily, I was prepared! ”

Brown said: "When the little one came to the future, Her Royal Highness the princess once confessed......"

Jace's heart sank, that woman was enough to make anyone dare not underestimate him, he raised his eyes and stared at Brown and asked, "Her Royal Highness the Fourth Princess asked you to come to carry out her wishes, right?" ”

Brown smiled slightly, not answering the question, giving Jace an unfathomable feeling.

The lights of Scott's tent were lit until late at night, and from time to time there was an excessively loud voice from inside, and the guards outside the tent knew that it was the newly arrived military envoy discussing military affairs with the commander, but it was rare to see such a lively scene.

After a long day of arguing, Jace and Brown finally reached an agreement to lead 80,000 horses as flanks to launch a surprise attack on the Wall Guards, while he himself led most of the troops in front to attract the attention of the Wall Guards. Brown, who had succeeded in his wish, walked out of the tent triumphantly, leaving Jace with only a sigh in the back, hoping that he would not be troubled by this guy tomorrow.

At this time, the two people who had their own plans in their hearts did not know that the direction of tomorrow was completely different from what they had imagined.

Back in his sleeping tent, Jace angrily threw his helmet aside, "This nasty guy! ”

At the beginning, he was opposed to merging the Great Lakes region, because it would upset the balance of the region, cause dissatisfaction among the Great Wall Guards, and lead to the outbreak of a great war. However, the woman who held the power was not satisfied with the current territory, and was determined to eat the Great Lakes region, and she did have some means to subdue the duke of the Great Lakes region without a single soldier. It's a pity that the Great Wall Guards reacted so quickly that they actually took the lead in seizing this area by force, and now it has evolved into such a situation.

To be honest, Jace didn't want to be the coach this time, because he was against sending troops to the Great Lake, but Scott didn't have a general who could confront Mulan, so he accepted it in order not to let Scott's army lose too much. But it seems that his choice is wrong, the woman who has an extreme desire for power has not realized her hard work at all, and she actually sent such a man.

Did she think the odds were great? Even if most of the country's elite troops are mobilized, it will be difficult to win without a general who can compete with the enemy's commander. "Jace knows he's old now, and it's good to be able to play like this with his opponent. Since that woman took power, she is keen to use power techniques instead of focusing on the discovery of generals, so that there is no young talent in the country who can really take charge of himself.

At this time, Jace suddenly found that there was a thick murderous aura in the tent, an instinctive reaction that had been tempered thousands of times, he immediately pulled out the treasure knife, and before he could shout, three people dressed in black suddenly appeared in the tent, and the three long swords that were also black revealed a fierce murderous aura, firmly enveloping him, making him breathless.

At this time, the old general, who felt extremely dangerous, had no time to summon his hands, his body turned, and the sword in his hand danced around his body, stacking into a heavy mountain of knives, blocking the three swords pointing to his vital point at the outer door.

The assassins who were determined to kill the old man did not give Jace a chance to breathe, and the three swords that also contained terrifying internal strength sword qi stabbed from the front and back and side like poisonous snakes respectively, although they had not yet reached the side, but the cold energy cut through the air around Jace, making the old man's whole body like ice water.

It had taken most of his energy to block the three swords, after all, the years were unforgiving, and Jace could not regain his strength as quickly as before, and although he tried to fend off the enemy's attack, the sword from the side still wedged into his net from a strange angle.

A strange cold snap poured in from where he had been hit, making it impossible for him to dance the second half of his move. The unfortunate old man could only watch as the two long swords in front and back pierced his body.

As a cold feeling enveloped Jace's body and mind, he heard a voice in a blur, "Alright, lift his head to King Lionheart!" ”

"King Lionheart?!"

In an instant, a thought crossed his mind: the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, maybe this time the army is a mistake. The bitter smile in his heart had not yet taken shape, and the endless darkness completely occupied his body and mind.
