The wind sounded, the blade struck, he parried with his steel knife, and with a buzz, sparks splashed everywhere, and blood gushed out of his throat. γLatest chapter reading. The man's voice was hoarse, and he fell in a pool of blood as soon as his body was crooked.
Before the ceremonial officers in the carriage could get out of the carriage, they heard a series of shrill noises whistling, and the carriage was shot like hedgehogs.
Huge screams and pleading voices echoed in the sky southwest of the imperial capital, making people's scalps tingle.
Rows of sharp arrows roared, piercing the partitions of the carriage and stabbing the innocent Imperial Officials to pieces.
The guards of the carriage drew their swords and fought back, but the opponent was too fast, and before they could make a move, the opponent had already pounced. Shouting to kill the sky, blood and mud are mixed. On the wide royal road where eight war horses can be paralleled, the warriors of the two sides are entangled in one place, shouting and rushing to kill, swearing to fight to the death.
When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins! They didn't have time to ask each other's names and origins, all they could do was raise their swords and stab them each other's heads!
But there were so many enemies that the few weak guards were overwhelmed in a blink of an eye, and they couldn't even see their shadows.
The muffled shouting echoed through the streets like muffled thunder. As the background for all this, there are waves of cheers in the middle of the imperial capital, and the fireworks and fireworks in the sky are constantly announcing what a festive day it is. However, it was precisely this festive excitement that covered up the sound of bloodthirsty slaughter, no one knew, no one heard, and no one would imagine that under such a prosperous and prosperous wedding feast, there would be such a brazen slaughter.
The guards of the Ministry of Rites roared and counterattacked, and there were too many enemies, frantically swarming from all directions like a tide! Those hideous faces and bloodthirsty eyes devoured the last glimmer of hope in people's hearts like savage beasts.
"Meet the enemy! The people from the government will arrive soon. β
However, what they don't know is that the source of today's assassins is the empire they have in mind, there will be no support, there will be no reinforcements, they are destined to be an abandoned team, to be martyred for the strength of the empire!
Yan Xun's carriage has been shot into a hornet's nest, no one will expect him to be alive, the more than 200 soldiers and beauties who escorted him survived, whether they resisted or surrendered, all of them were slaughtered, not a single one was left!
At this moment, a grand firework suddenly erupted in the center of the imperial capital, colorful and dazzling, and huge cheers surged like waves, reflecting the dead silence here more and more.
Barre strode over, pushing away his dejected men in front of the carriage, the young man in brocade clothes leaned in the car, his body pierced by a crossbow arrow, blood gushing out of his mouth, he looked at Barre, spat on the bloody spit, and wanted to say something, but it turned into a series of broken coughs.
Barre's face turned pale, and he said in a cold voice, "What about Yan Xun? β
The young man smiled contemptuously, and Barre angrily drew his sword and poured the wind through it, severing the young man's young neck.
The subordinates' faces were panicked, and they turned pale, and they said tremblingly: "General......"
Barre turned his head and looked at his subordinates coldly: "The siege of eight hundred people, the defense of three hundred people on the periphery, well-armed and well-prepared, you still let people escape without intention?" What use do I want from you? β
"General, we, we can go to the periphery of Major General Wei to check, maybe they have caught it."
"Yes." Barre nodded suddenly, holding on to one ten-thousandth of a hope, and was about to get on the horse, but at this moment, a shocking sound of horses' hooves suddenly sounded, and the whole earth trembled violently for a moment, Barre raised his head in horror, only to see the end of a long dark street, dense torches slowly approaching, gradually converging into a shining ribbon of light, the war horse was proud, murderous like a rainbow! What was coming was a fierce cavalry corps!
"It's the Yanbei Army of the Southwest Town Mansion!"
Barre shouted and turned sharply, "Withdraw!" β
At this point, it was too late to escape, and it was impossible for two legs to outrun the four legs of a war horse. This is no longer a battle, it is definitely a veritable massacre.
"I am General Barre of the Northwest Batuha family, and we have a royal order!"
A panicked voice rang out, and Barre retreated under his guards, shouting his identity in tears.
But where would anyone believe that the officers and soldiers of the Southwest Town Government who had just been transferred by the prince of Yanbei were red-eyed one by one. Since the fall of Yan Shicheng, the envoys of the southwest town government have been inferior in the imperial capital, and they have been bullied and insulted by the people of the Green Camp Army and the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, and even the city defenders dare to give them a blank look. At this moment, it is difficult to seize such an opportunity to make great contributions, who would believe the crazy words of those assassins who are dying?
To dare to organize such a large-scale assassination in Zhenhuang City is simply impatient.
The soldiers shouted and slashed with their swords!
The sound of horses' hooves roared to the sky, the black oppressive cavalry surged like a tide, and in the middle of the stars holding the moon, Yan Xun, who was dressed in a big red auspicious suit, rode a horse, his eyes were like eagle falcons, and his lips were pursed, with a cold and hard edge.
"His Royal Highness!" He Xiaoce, the deputy commander of the Southwest Town Governor, immediately stepped forward and said, "Your Royal Highness, fortunately, the thief is dead, and no one has escaped. β
Yan Xun nodded, smiled and said, "Commander He has made great contributions, and Yan Xun doesn't dare to forget the grace of saving his life." β
He Xiao shook his head and said: "Your Highness is serious, it is the responsibility of the last general to protect the safety of the imperial capital, not to mention that His Royal Highness and the envoy of the Southwest Town Government are both from Yanbei, and we can't stand idly by." β
Yan Xun said with a smile: "The merit of the commander, this king will definitely report to the emperor completely, I believe that soon, the word 'deputy' of Deputy Commander He can be removed." β
He Xiao was overjoyed and said with a smile: "Thank you, Your Highness, for promoting!" β
"Commander!" At this time, a small general stepped forward and whispered in He Xiao's ear, "Something is wrong. β
He Xiao was stunned for a moment, turned his head and whispered, "What's wrong?" β
The general frowned, his eyes were panicked, and he said in a deep voice: "You come with me to have a look." β
He Xiao and Yan Xun said hello, and then followed the general away, looking at the corpses one by one, the more he looked at the colder his heart became, when he saw Barre's corpse, he already felt that his eyes were black, and he almost fell off his horse.
Barre was a man of great fanfare, and when he first entered the city, almost the entire city saw his true face. How could He Xiao, as a general who maintained order on the scene, not know that seeing this old man lying there with a dense pile of arrows in his chest, He Xiao just wanted to vomit a mouthful of blood.
Cheering up, the young deputy commander was still fantasizing, maybe it was just the assassination operation of the Northwest Batuha family, wanting to get rid of the prince of Yanbei, after all, the grievances between Lao Batu and Yan Shicheng had already spread all over the country, and everyone knew about it.
However, when he saw a large number of soldiers of the cavalry battalion, he immediately knew that what was in front of him was already a dead end.
Although these soldiers were all dressed in the clothes of the Northwest Batuha family, the soldiers of the Southwest Town, who had been stationed in the imperial capital all the year round, could recognize at a glance these bastards who often followed the butt of the commander of the cavalry battalion to show off their might in their own army. Seeing these people, no matter how stupid He Xiao was, he understood that the so-called assassination was nothing more than a killing ordered by the empire.
So, what should happen to him if he forcibly killed the soldiers and horses with his soldiers and horses, annihilated the soldiers and horses of the empire, and saved the prince of Yanbei?
At that moment, He Xiao had only one thought: to take down Yan Xun and atone for his sins!
"The person who wants to kill me is the Great Xia Emperor."
In an instant, everyone was stunned on the spot!
Yan Xun stood tall on the horse, glanced at the many soldiers present lightly, and then looked at He Xiao's face, and said in a light tone: "Commander He, I am sorry that you are involved, if you are not a soldier from Yanbei, you may be able to avoid this disaster if you are not a soldier from Yanbei." β
A word to remind the dreamer! He Xiao's eyes widened, looking at Yan Xun's unfathomable face, and he suddenly came back to his senses!
The envoy of the southwest town has no turning back.
If it was another unit that accidentally killed Barre and the soldiers of the cavalry battalion, then the past can be explained with a sentence that does not know the inside story. However, as an envoy to the southwest town that has been highly concerned by the empire and has been repeatedly suspected of hiding the Yanbei rebels, it is impossible to escape with his life no matter what. The empire will not let go of itself, whether the elders will let go of themselves, and the Holy Golden Palace will not let go of itself, and there is only a dead end to turn back. The man's eyes were red, and he looked fiercely at the handsome man in a red robe in front of him, and a voice shouted frantically in his head: He knew all that he had deliberately led himself to death!
However, he couldn't say a word, and after a few moments, the anger in the man's eyes slowly faded, replaced by an outlaw madness.
Tens of thousands of people gathered on the long street, and the clear-minded people immediately understood the cause and effect of what had happened, and they only felt that the earth seemed to be shaking, and there was an empty fear. Everyone looked up, looked at He Xiao, looked at Yan Xun, or looked at the sky, and struggled to think of a way to live for themselves.
He Xiao jumped off his horse abruptly, raised his hands at the soldiers behind him, and shouted, "Brothers! There are some things I've been holding back for eight years, and I'm going to talk about them today! Back then, who smashed the rebellion of King Canglan and rescued the emperor all the way to Shengjin Palace? Who was the elder officials who ran thousands of miles in Baima Pass and rescued the elder officials of the entire empire? Who fought against the dog Rong people on the Yanbei Plateau, made the northern barbarians dare not step into the pass, and protected our parents, wives and children? It is the king of Yanbei and the old prince of Yanshicheng! But what did the loyal retainers get in the end? It's all over the house, it's beheading! In the past eight years, our soldiers of the Yanbei lineage have suffered humiliation in the imperial capital, and have been looked down upon by the dogs of the Xiaocai Battalion and the Green Battalion Army. We have endured all of this! But now, the empire is going to attack the only bloodline of the old prince for no reason, and try to get rid of His Royal Highness the Prince by despicable means, as a soldier in Yanbei, will we obey? β
"Not convinced!"
Thunderous shouts suddenly sounded, countless soldiers raised their swords and guns, and those myths about the invincibility of Yan Shicheng once again rushed in the bloody chests of the soldiers, and the oppression they had suffered over the years was also boiling like magma. They hissed and screamed, and the momentum was amazing!
"Brethren! We are soldiers of Yanbei, tonight, we killed the conspirators of the empire, we have been tied to a rope with His Royal Highness the Prince, if the Son of the World is gone, we will not end well! You say, 'Can we sit still?' β
"Can't!"
"We can't die!"
"The emperor is ungrateful! Not worthy to rule us! β
Just look at the refreshing one
