Chapter 138: Battle Randall on
Bert had felt uncomfortable since he came out of the Castle Lord's Mansion, and Hattori Shizo had left by himself since he handed over Frank and the others to him. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info his reason is also very legitimate, the ninja is a combat unit that operates in secret, so naturally he will go to the front to explore the way first. But Bert now has a ghost in his heart, and is naturally very worried that he will meet someone from the Brotherhood.
Now it can only be a step-by-step approach, at least Bert saw Frank in the prison car. When Frank saw Bert, he was stunned, and Bert secretly stuffed a note for him while no one was around, and motioned for him to be silenced. Frank and three other high-ranking Assassins were held in an iron prison cart, and judging by the injuries on their bodies, they were not less affected by their flesh and skin, but except for Frank, who appeared to have suffered internal injuries, everyone else was in good condition.
There were more than 100 people in the entire escort team, all of whom were Edwin's former private soldiers, and their loyalty was much higher than that of other troops. Bert walked in the direction of Kudam with his team according to the original plan, and he could only hope that Princip and the others would not be discovered by Hattori's Shizo ninja troops, otherwise everything would be over.
The City Lord's Mansion was nearly an hour away from the Council Square, and there was a group of soldiers in front of it to open the way, in fact, the civilians had already dispersed when they saw such a large procession. In addition, the nearby residents were notified before, and they all knew each other very well to get out of the way.
Man is a very curious creature, knowing that this is a prisoner who is about to be executed by death, but there are still crowds of onlookers on both sides of the road, and the houses on both sides of the street are also full of people. They don't care who the person who is going to be executed is, they just care about having a good show to watch.
As the team pushes forward, an intersection appears in front of them. This is the intersection from the City Lord's Mansion to Kudam Street, and it is also the first place of choice for the Brotherhood to prepare an ambush. First of all, the geography here is very good, the escort team comes out of the narrow streets, and the ambush team is in the wide and open streets, where the escort team can be completely suppressed with crossbow arrows. Coupled with the fact that Bertley should cooperate with the outside, it is very easy to suppress the other party with a very small number of people.
When Bert saw the dark shadow on the corner of the street, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart. Who was that man, who was not Hattori Shifenzo, but I saw him riding a black war horse, carrying a man-long naginata behind him, and his whole body was wrapped in black cloth armor, revealing only a pair of eyes. Behind him, followed by two ninjas dressed in the same costumes.
Bert stopped the convoy and rode up alone. Bert nodded slightly at Hattori Sifenzo, "Why are Hattori-kun waiting for me here?
Hattori Sifenzo's voice was very flat, and he couldn't hear if there was anything wrong: "No, it's safe here, I'll send someone to the front." I'll follow you. ”
Bert rode his horse and shouted to the soldiers who had stopped, "Keep going." The escort team began to move slowly again.
The two of them rode forward, two black-clad ninjas following behind them, and Bert deliberately lowered the brim of his magic hood to make it easier to observe the surroundings.
Bert looked at several dimly lit corners, but found no Brotherhood members. It is estimated that they did not set up an ambush here, although the geographical location here is good, but it is relatively close to the city lord's mansion, and the speed of reinforcements arriving is relatively fast.
The procession marched along Kudam Street, and the number of onlookers increased, and many children were holding sugar gourds and watching from their parents' shoulders.
As the group reached the next intersection, Bert saw Erin and Jingwei in the crowd, they were so conspicuous that they could attract the attention of many people at that stop. Hattori Shifenzo also spotted them, but only glanced at them and turned his gaze elsewhere.
This was the second ambush site set at the time, and this was where the two main roads met, so it would be easy to retreat if there was a fight. It seemed that they had set the location here, and Bert quietly glanced at the crowd, and sure enough, he saw Princip dressed as an old peasant. Wearing a hat and holding a basket, Princip dressed as a peasant who had just returned from the fair. Behind him were two young men in tattered clothes, and it was clear from their resolute eyes that they were definitely also members of the Brotherhood.
Although it is not known where Hattori Shikuzo sent the other ninjas to, it is not known if there will be an ambush. But now they have to do it, and Princip and they have all of them in the vicinity, and if they hesitate any longer, they may miss all opportunities.
Princip and Bert met eye contact and nodded, everything was ready, and Bert knew he was waiting for him to make the first move. Bert turned to look at Hattori Shifenzo, who was looking around at this time, and didn't seem to notice Princip and the others.
Here's your chance!Bert slammed open his magic robe, and the black and white sword slashed through his waist like a hurricane. Bert had deliberately moved his horse closer to Hattori's mount, and now the two were less than half a meter apart.
With a "ding" sound, Hattori Sifen hid a short knife on his waist to block Bert's attack! The weapon that can block the full force of the Light and Shadow Sword can be imagined, and he really took precautions!
Bert failed to sneak attack, and immediately drew his sword and stabbed again. Hattori Shikubu stepped down hard and jumped directly off his horse, widening the distance.
"Kill!" Princip pushed away the crowd and pounced on the nearest soldier, who immediately raised his gun in response, and Princip waved his hand, and a stream of black powder fell directly into his face. Before the soldier could figure out what the powder was for, he felt weak, black blood coming out of his mouth and nose, and he was hopeless. In order to ensure the success rate of this battle, the poison carried by Princip is immediately effective, and as long as it hits the target, even if there is an antidote, it cannot be saved.
After getting the accurate signal, dozens of people jumped out of the crowd. There is only one target, a heavily guarded prisoner cart. Facing the soldiers armed with spears, all the assassins used crossbow arrows, and the soldiers who rushed to the front only felt a pain in their bodies, and the green crossbow arrows shot them straight out.
The battle went very well, and with the exception of Bert, who was fighting Hattori Sifenzo here, the rest of the soldiers were no match for the premeditated Assassins.
Bert and Hattori Sifenzo didn't speak, the long sword and the naginata in their hands kept colliding, and golden sparks continued to burst in the air, and the abilities of the two were very close, and they couldn't tell the winner for a while.
