Chapter 1046: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada, and the Yellow Sparrow is Behind!
"Do it!"
The killers only hesitated for a moment before making a decision.
Because the order given by the third elder brother before was that he categorically could not let the eighth elder brother enter the palace alive.
These killers are all dead soldiers, and in order to complete the order of the third elder brother, even if they are asked to die immediately, they will not hesitate in the slightest.
The archers, who had been preparing for an ambush, quickly collected their bows and arrows and left from the roof where they were hiding. And those killers who were ambushed on both sides of the street with knives no longer hid their figures, and ran directly against the fleeing crowd towards the shop where the eighth elder brother was hiding.
The soldiers of the special operations team, hidden in the fleeing crowd, could easily identify which people were the killers.
Swimming against the current, with knives, bows and arrows, murderous......
With such obvious characteristics, if the soldiers of the special operations team could not distinguish which ones were killers, they would have been eliminated from the initial selection long ago.
Compared with the hidden tracks of the soldiers of the special combat team, these killers sent by the third elder brother are purely fireflies in the night, and one or two are shining and dazzling existences.
With a gesture, the soldiers of the special operations team quickly selected their respective targets.
The order they got was not to protect the safety of the eighth elder brother, the crown prince, but to follow and watch, improvise, and stand by.
And at this moment, they chose to be the mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch was behind.
When a killer ran past a special operations soldier, the special operations soldier lightly stretched out his legs.
Poor killer, all eyes are on the shop ahead, where did he think that someone would stretch out his legs to trip him?
The tripping killer struggled to control his body and not fall, but that was the end of it.
The Special Operations Soldier who stretched out his leg to stumble him silently slashed at the back of his neck with a knife, knocking him unconscious.
The same scene is happening in several places almost at the same time.
With just one contact, half of the killers sent by the third elder brother were taken down.
The other half, unaware of the fact that half of their companions were missing, for their attention was also on the shop in front of them.
They must rush for time, race against time, and attack the shop and kill the eighth elder brother before the soldiers of the infantry army commander Yamen arrive.
By the time the killers found that they were missing half of their companions, they had already rushed through the crowd and reached the door of the shop.
However, the guards around the eighth elder brother firmly guarded the door of the shop.
The entrance to this shop is not large, and two people can block the entrance by standing side by side.
Although the killers are not afraid of death, they can't take advantage of the same desperate guards. The advantage of numbers is also inexerted.
Worst of all, two of them were knocked unconscious and taken away by the soldiers of the special operations team.
"Like, there's nothing to do with us!"
On the street corner away from the shop, the two people left behind by the special combat team looked at the stalemate at the door of the shop and decisively chose to evacuate.
Their existence must be kept secret!
Otherwise, once there is a change in the capital, they will not be able to play the role of surprise soldiers.
……
"Rubbish, what a bunch of rubbish!"
When the third elder brother knew that the killers' actions had failed, he jumped to his feet in anger.
However, no matter how angry he is, he must deal with the aftermath quickly, and he can't let the eighth elder brother inform Kangxi of his existence.
So an order was passed to a little eunuch lurking in the Qianqing Palace, and the little eunuch sent a note to the eighth elder brother before he met Kangxi.
