The Songjiang cavalry stood under the south gate of Donghai City for more than an hour. 『』『Words*love*first*hair.』

Replaced by the soldiers of the East China Sea Garrison Brigade at the head of the city, they just basked in the sun for an hour, but they were afraid that they would have already started to complain. But in their eyes, although these cavalry from the south were sweating, the overall formation of the riders was not chaotic at all, and the spirit of slaughter did not diminish in the slightest.

After watching it for a long time, the soldiers who defended the city almost hallucinated, as if these well-trained cavalry could charge directly to the city.

"Say, how did these cavalrymen train them? In my opinion, that's all there is to the cavalry corps of the Empire's main battle force, right? As soon as the officers on patrol passed, some soldiers couldn't help but mutter.

There was also admiration on his companion's face, but he focused on another point: "These Songjiang people from the south are powerful, but it's a bit stupid to stand under the sun like this, right?" What are they waiting for? ”

"I guess it's already been discussed above, right?"

A well-informed soldier raised his hand and pointed upwards, with a mysterious look, obviously hearing something.

When he said this, the other soldiers also knew a little in their hearts. After all, a not-so-friendly looking enemy army appeared under the city, but the defenders were ordered not to attack, and they did not even make strict preparations for battle, but only closed the city gates in advance. Of course, this has something to do with the fact that the other party is a cavalry and can't attack the city, but if you want to say that it's not boring, you don't believe it if you kill them.

"Who are you talking about?"

Not far away, a soldier with a good deed couldn't help but ask.

"Don't you know?" The soldier from before looked left and right, and seeing that no one was paying attention to this side, he whispered: "The governor of our Donghai County is said to have fled to Bohai a few days in advance, and he doesn't dare to fight the Songjiang people at all. The one who stayed behind was General Cen, and it was probably him...... You see, here it is! ”

While he was talking, the powerful people of Donghai City rushed over under the protection of the accompanying soldiers.

The person walking in the middle was wearing a military uniform, and it was Cen Wukun, the general of the Donghai Army. Behind him, followed by a group of nobles and middle- and high-ranking officials from Donghai County. Looking at this appearance, it is obvious that the city is going to open the city to welcome the cavalry of the Songjiang Army into the city.

The general of Donghai City personally opened the city to welcome the Songjiang army, and the current situation in the East China Sea was very clear, so the Songjiang army naturally would not think that he had surrendered fraudulently. However, at the moment when the pilot team entered the city, Cen Wukun and Jiang Rong, the wing commander of the cavalry wing, entered the city gate side by side, an astonishing change occurred.

On the roof of the house a hundred steps away, I don't know when there were two more people.

Disguised, they look the same color as the tiles on the eaves. Coupled with the fact that it is located in the shade and looks up from the ground, it is difficult to find without particularly looking. Although the Donghai soldiers at the head of the city had the possibility of seeing it, they didn't expect that someone would assassinate them in public, and most of their attention was on the Songjiang cavalry who had just entered the city.

In the midst of the cacophony of celebration, the slight sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air is not particularly conspicuousreads(); The number one cannon fodder [comprehensive]. But many times, the more inconspicuous things are, the deadlier they are.

In order to ensure a one-hit kill, the assassin shoots two bows and two arrows at the same time!

Cao Laocai's group of thugs, of course, did not have the ability to complete the assassination. It was the killer of the Emperor's Intelligence Bureau who really shot these two arrows. Even the famous Omani black-clad guards have a hard time getting advantage in the hands of the MIA. Although it is true that Yan Xingbang has some little prestige in his hands, it is still no problem to assassinate someone by surprise. The key is what happens after the assassination, which is what Cao Laocai needs to do.

In the midst of the crowd, two specially made steel arrows accurately penetrated Cen Wukun's Mingguang armor and shot into his chest. The toxins quenched on the arrows quickly spread with the blood, flowing all over the body in an instant.

At that moment, the officials around Cen Wukun and the guards who were a little farther away didn't even react to what was happening.

"There are assassins!"

In the end, it was the henchman next to Cen Wukun who shouted, with unimaginable horror in his sharp voice. After a second of silence, there was chaos near the city gate.

Unlike those nobles and civil officials who were at a loss, Cen Wukun's personal guards reacted quite quickly. They quickly divided into two factions, and some of them surrounded him, not only to check the injury and treat him as soon as possible, but also to protect him who fell to the ground. The other part scattered, darling in the direction of the suspicious arrow, trying to capture the assassin.

The cavalry of the Matsue Army was also not slow to react.

At the moment when Cen Wukun fell to the ground with an arrow, more than one cavalryman realized the danger and moved. However, the assassin's accomplices were apparently premeditated. At the moment when the team was in chaos, someone shouted: "Not good, the general was assassinated by the Songjiang people!" ”

This shout seemed to blow a trumpet.

"General Cen has been assassinated!"

"The Songjiang Army really plotted against the city and intended to deceive the city!"

"Brothers, use the knife, kill these treacherous Songjiang dogs and avenge the general!"

"Close the city gate quickly, don't let the Songjiang people in the back come in!"

When the human brain is suddenly stimulated, it is often in a state of confusion, and it is difficult to think as carefully as usual, but will blindly follow the command of others. At the moment when Cen Wukun was assassinated and there was chaos near the city gate, such a series of orders suddenly sounded, and many soldiers subconsciously carried them out.

There were even some soldiers who did not welcome the Songjiang Army, subconsciously believed the words shouted in the crowd, and drew their swords and killed the surrounding Songjiang Army cavalry.

The originally peaceful ceremony of entering the city suddenly became turbulent.

At the critical moment, Jiang Rong, the wing commander of the cavalry wing, made an unusually decisive and wise decision. It only took him half a second to think before he gave up the idea of exiting the city gate and slowly clarifying the misunderstanding with the people of Donghai City. Although it is not known who carried out the assassination, it can be imagined from the premeditated agitation and planting that the conspirators must have had a series of means. If you quit here, I'm afraid that the entire East China Sea City will be kidnapped by the other party.

Once the defenders close the gates and let the conspirators in the city spread the rumors, the situation will never be reversed. If you want to take the East China Sea again, the Songjiang army must have a real siege battle!

With the current military strength of the Songjiang Army, it may only take one division to take Donghai City, but how much time will this process take and how many sacrifices will it take?

Moreover, even if the city is forcibly broken, this grudge will be settled, which will be very detrimental to the future rule of the Matsue army. Professional spoilers [Comprehensive Martial Arts Sword III].

Rather than having that result, it's better to give it a go for it decisively!

"The whole army obeys the order and follows me to kill!"

At the command, he turned over and got on his horse, and slammed his heel on the horse's belly, and the war horse, which had followed him for several years, immediately understood what his master meant, and ran with a neigh. Several East China Sea soldiers not far in front of him were caught off guard, and in panic, they hurriedly moved out of the way to both sides. There were also reckless people who saw Jiang Rong's actions and decided that Songjiang Jun really had bad intentions and had the courage to kill him.

It's just, how can an ordinary soldier in the East China Sea be an opponent of the elite cavalry officer of Songjiang.

The wing captain didn't look at it, drew his knife and slashed an arc in the air, directly knocking out the opponent's knife. The cavalry that followed Jiang Rong followed closely and rushed in from the chaotic crowd.

Jiang Rong's decisive order unified the team's ideas.

Whether it was the first riders to enter the city and see the assassination with their own eyes, or the soldiers who didn't know what was happening ahead outside the city gate, they all turned over and got on their horses as soon as they got the order, wanting to forcibly take the south gate of Donghai City.

"Close the city gate and release the iron gate!"

was caught off guard by the decisive charge of the Songjiang army, and the entire southern city gate became more and more chaotic. It was not that the soldiers defending the city heard the shouting below, but this change was so sudden that the soldiers couldn't react for a while. Under the sudden rush of the Songjiang army, it became impossible to close the city gate, and the iron gate weighing several thousand catties could not be put down immediately.

In such a hesitation, the number of cavalry of the Songjiang army entering the city increased rapidly.

The gates of Donghai City were wide enough for twelve cavalrymen to enter the city side by side. Before the assassination, the vanguard of the Songjiang cavalry had already come in with about 100 horsemen. In this instant, the Songjiang cavalry that entered the city was nearly 300 people. The number of Tokai soldiers escorting nearby was not so large, and they were killed and defeated by the Matsue cavalry that attacked violently.

"Rush to the head of the city and completely control the entire south city gate!"

Jiang Rong's thinking was very clear, and after increasing his speed to disperse these East China Sea soldiers, he did not chase them down or rush to the depths of East China Sea City, but turned around and rushed back. He resolutely gave up his horse and rushed to the head of the city from the stairs on both sides of the city gate in the shape of a foot battle.

Without enough training, an infantry would never have been able to become a cavalryman on horseback, but the reverse was much easier!

The soldiers of the East China Sea, who did not have enough strength and lacked the determination to fight to the death, looked very messy in the face of the Songjiang cavalry rushing up like wolves, and some people could even see stunned on their faces. Compared to the chaos under the city gates, the soldiers at the city head thought more clearly. They instinctively felt strange, the Songjiang army had obviously entered the city along the way, and they also talked and laughed with General Cen. In this case, are the people of Songjiang full of food and want to assassinate each other?

Jiang Rong, who led the team to kill, could feel this contradiction of the enemy. While struggling to kill inside, he shouted loudly that those who surrendered would not be killed.

The resistance and fighting at the head of the city were quickly quelled.

Thanks to his decisive decision and the strong combat power of the Songjiang cavalry - of course, the assassins were not well prepared, so that they were caught off guard by the charge of the Songjiang army, in short, the Songjiang cavalry, which entered the city first, quickly took control of the southern city gate. Then the cavalry stopped their movements and began to condescendingly shout to the disorganized soldiers, the defenders who were reinforcing in the distance, and the civil and military officials who were being dragged into a corner by the crowd.

"General Cen Wukun is not the reads() assassinated by our Songjiang Army; Ode to joy! ”

"Everyone, please calm down, and don't fall for the trick of sowing discord. The arrows are from within the city, not from our people! ”

"Someone assassinated General Cen in an attempt to blame us!"

The Songjiang Army gave up continuing to move when it had already occupied a local advantage, but kept shouting, which had a very good effect.

Amid the corpses, bloodstains, and the wailing and groaning of a large number of wounded people everywhere, the battle near the South Gate basically subsided. After the excited guards and military attachés calmed down, they quickly discovered the suspicions, and they couldn't help but be shocked.

"Don't be fooled, it's General Cen who was killed by these Songjiang people, I saw it with my own eyes!"

Seeing that the shape was wrong, someone in the crowd shouted again.

But Jiang Rong, who was shouting at the head of the city, had a good look in his eyes, and quickly found the approximate position of the instigator in the crowd, and shouted over there: "Which rat is deliberately spreading rumors and trying to make us Songjiang and Donghai kill each other?" If you have the guts, stand up and let the gentlemen take a look! The one who hides his head and tail is an egg! ”

The clamor that was originally sworn by was suddenly silent.

This last incitement is a little too obvious. If it was the moment when Cen Wukun was assassinated, the soldiers nearby didn't have time to think about it, and they didn't realize anything. If you are still fooled now, you will really be stupid. These pale-faced civil and military officials and nobles, their faces quickly covered with anger and fear, they had already roughly figured out what the assassin wanted to do - they and the others almost became tools and pawns against the Songjiang army!

And it's the kind that dies when it runs out.

"Come on, lock up all the people here, and investigate one by one!"

Guan Shanyue suppressed his anger and issued an order. In the absence of the governor Zong Hanlin and the general of the protector Cen Wukun was assassinated and killed on the spot, he, the director of the interior of Donghai County, was basically the largest civilian official present. Seeing him speak, the nearby soldiers immediately chose to obey the order.

Although the reaction was not as quick as these big names, by now, the situation is very clear. Even the ordinary soldiers had realized that someone was trying to assassinate and cause rebellion, causing them to fight among themselves with the people of Songjiang. The thought that the hundred and ten comrades who had died in vain on the ground were all caused by them, and that they themselves had almost been killed, the soldiers were angry.

All of them were stared at, their eyes cold, as if they wanted to find their inciting fellow Assassins in the crowd.

Alarm signals and shouts of killing were heard in the distance, and the defenders who had rushed to reinforce were also stopped. They were a little confused about the situation at the South Gate, their eyes wandering over the mottled bloodstains and corpses on the ground. Didn't you say that the king of Thailand who opened the city peacefully and took refuge in Songjiang? What's going on with this stark and obvious killing scene right now?

No one had the heart to answer them, including Cao Laocai, who looked terrified in the crowd.

As the top grain merchant in Donghai City, he welcomed the Songjiang cavalry into the city this time, of course, he also had to participate, and by the way, he also covered for the people he brought. I thought that this assassination case would be staged according to the layout of the secret agent of the Emperor's Intelligence Bureau, but he really didn't expect that it would be out of his grasp from the beginning.

Although the assassination was successful, a full-scale war between the Matsue army and Tokai Castle did not break out, and the situation was decisively controlled by the enemy's cavalry.

At this moment, seeing the angry East China Sea soldiers around him, Cao Laocai's face turned pale. Others only thought that he was frightened by the corpses all over the ground, but only Cao Laocai himself knew the real reason!

He vaguely felt that the truth would soon be exposed, and his fate would definitely be worse than the original!
