Chapter 270: Assassination
Xu Kuibi also laughed when he heard this, what he admired most was Fang Hong's frank temperament, and all his joy and anger would be directly expressed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Dealing with such people is not tiring at all.
He grew up in the Guogong Mansion since he was a child, and he has seen too many open and secret battles, don't look at him, he has always been gentle to others, but he rarely shows his true self in front of outsiders.
While he was laughing, a fellow from the Star Picking Tower came over, holding a tray in his hand, in which were placed four huge lion heads, pouring a thick soup, which looked extremely delicious.
"Taste it, it's a braised iron lion head. Xu Kuibi stretched out his hand to take the tray, and Fang Hong seemed to be a little impatient, picked up the chopsticks from the table, and put them on the lion's head.
"Brother Hong, you're too anxious......" Xu Kuibi shook his head, this Brother Hong is good at everything, but he is too greedy to even wait for this little time.
But before he could say this, the chopsticks in Fang Hong's hand poked out like lightning, poking into the guy's eyes fiercely, and with a strong palm of his hand, it pierced this person's brain.
The man screamed and fell to the ground on his back, blood and brains flowing from the wound, and he was not alive. If it was an ordinary son, he would have been yelling in fright, only Xu Kuibi frowned and looked at Fang Hong with inquiring eyes.
"There is something wrong with this person. Fang Hong stepped forward and lifted the person's clothes, pinning a slender sharp knife to his waist. Xu Kuibi's eyes couldn't help shrinking, and a sharp knife would appear on a guy's body, and it was very obvious here. If it weren't for Fang Hong's alertness, he would be in danger today.
"Let's go. As soon as Fang Hong pulled Xu Kuibi's sleeve, he took him outside. The star-picking building here is 100 feet high, and if someone is blocked below, it will be difficult to get out.
"Good. Xu Kuibi nodded, followed behind Fang Hong, and hurriedly walked downstairs. He knew Fang Hong's force, one person could single-handedly take on the blind bear, so he didn't come out strong.
"Little grandfather. The guards guarding the door did not notice anything unusual, and when they saw Xu Kuibi coming out, they hurriedly saluted Xu Kuibi. Xu Kuibi nodded at them and asked them to follow.
"Whoosh. They hadn't taken a few steps yet, and suddenly, from the room on one side, several crossbow arrows suddenly shot out, Fang Hong was about to make a move, and several guards around Xu Kuibi rushed out in an instant, blocking the front of the two with their bodies.
These guards are all dead soldiers, absolutely loyal to the Xu family, and when necessary, they will use their lives to escort their masters away.
"Poof. These crossbow arrows shot deep into the bodies of several guards. However, these guards also deliberately avoided the vital point, and did not die immediately.
"Crossbow arrows, these assassins actually have crossbow arrows!" Xu Kuibi's brows furrowed even more, the Ming Dynasty banned crossbows and bows, and forbade swords and swords, this crossbow arrow is only qualified to be used by the army, why do these assassins have crossbow arrows?
The lethality of the crossbow bolt is so great that it can even pierce armor at close range, and it is so easy to use that even any urchin can use it to kill.
"It's Liu Liu, Liu Qi's people. Fang Hong's eyes glowed with a faint light, and in front of his eyes, the sky began to be filled with a catastrophe, and a huge meteor was flying. When he saw this meteor before, although it was bright, it was not at its peak. But now the light on the meteor was already emitting a crimson aura, indicating that the rebels had reached their strongest momentum.
But at the same time, this kind of calamity that plagues the world will soon decline when it is at its strongest, and it will not be long before it will perish.
"Liu Liu, Liu Qi, are they ready to attack Jiangnan? Why is there no warning at all?" Xu Kuibi's heart was a little nervous, all along, the main target of the rebels was Jingshi. If they raid Jiangnan, how should they deal with this?
No wonder he has worries in this regard, the governor's office of the five armies has the right to command the troops but not the right to transfer troops, the military department has the right to transfer troops but not the right to command the troops, the two sides control each other, and the military power is in the hands of the emperor, plus there are eunuchs in the military camp as the supervising army, several forces are entangled, if the enemy raids, I am afraid that the order of the imperial court has not come down, Jiangnan has fallen.
This is also the reason why Liu Liu Liu and Liu Qi have been dealing with the imperial court for so long, to put it bluntly, those people are just some horse bandits, and the Ming Dynasty has millions of soldiers, and it is still easy to suppress them. But because the tops are pulling each other, the efficiency is extremely low.
The contradiction between military attachés and civilian officials has been going on for a long time, and military attachés want to directly command the army to earn credit, while civilian officials are afraid that military attachés will become big, and desperately want to reduce their power.
Fang Hong didn't know what Xu Kuibi was thinking, he just strode out, kicked open the door on the side, there were three guys inside, each holding a crossbow, seeing Fang Hong coming, he immediately pulled out the knife on his waist.
"Kill. "These guys are clearly practicing their families, their footsteps are steady, and there are rules between the long knives in their hands. Fang Hong sneered and kicked straight over.
Under normal circumstances, when the enemy is holding a knife, you can easily put yourself in a passive state by kicking with your foot. But at the same time as Fang Hong kicked out, the body of one of the guys in front suddenly stiffened slightly, and it was like this that gave Fang Hong a chance.
He went straight into the palace and kicked the fellow in the chest. His strength was not small, and the fellow immediately turned over and fell headlong. And Fang Hong kept moving, kicking three times in succession, and the three guys were all kicked to the ground.
He stepped forward, snatched the long knife from the hand of one of the men, and turned it into the necks of the three men, instantly ending the lives of several people. His movements were clean and clean, and there was no mud or water.
However, although he killed these three people, his eyelids still kept beating, and a strong sense of bad premonition rose in his heart. He opened his eyes, and the calamity around him became more and more intense, even with a hint of death.
"Can't go, come back quickly. Fang Hong was extremely uneasy, but he didn't know where the problem was. The calamity around him was too thick, and he couldn't even get out of his body after suppressing it. He even had a feeling that something not so good would happen once he was out of his body.
"What's wrong?" Xu Kuibi was a little puzzled, why couldn't he go down?
"We go to the top floor, there is danger below. Fang Hong didn't know how to explain it, but he knew that there would definitely be great danger if he went down. Xu Kuibi believed that Fang Hong would not be untargeted, nodded, and walked back together.
"Boom. Just as they took a step, the entire Star Picking Tower seemed to shake suddenly, and the beams of the room were trembling, and everyone's ears were roaring, and they couldn't hear the slightest sound.
