Volume 2 - Growth Chapter 139 - The Battle of the Admiralty Hall
Inside the house, Mao Yishan was ambushed by Zhu Zhong because of his entry into the Golden Bell Hall, and he was trapped in a huge net.
The woman's heart was crossed, and the cold sword blade pierced her throat. Mao Yishan only felt a cold wind in his throat. Just when Mao Yishan thought that the cold sword was going to pierce his neck.
"Bang!"
"Phew!"
"Bang! Boom! Bang!"
"Who?!"
"Swordsman Li Changfeng!"
A loud bang sounded, and Mao Yishan only heard the crisp sound of swords colliding. As soon as his eyes opened, he saw a flash of sword light and sword shadow in front of him.
Li Changfeng stood in front of him and shot down the long sword that the woman had stabbed. Then he used his internal force, and with a wave of his sword, he cut several openings in the big net.
Zhu Zhong reacted and wanted to step forward to stop him. Unexpectedly, Li Changfeng's sword turned backwards. The cold light flashed, and the sword qi left a hole on Zhu Zhongyi's clothes.
"Let's go!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Li Changfeng swung out a sword, and the sharp sword qi made everyone present dare not resist.
Taking advantage of this gap, Li Changfeng pulled Mao Yishan up, and the two of them flew the eaves and walked against the wall, and with the help of the long beam, they jumped out of the roof in three or two steps and ran outside the courtyard.
"Old-timers, why are so many officers and soldiers suddenly here?!"
When he came to the eaves, Mao Yishan found that in the previously empty street, there were already 100 heavily armed soldiers at this time, fighting with Wu Kang and others.
"Someone got the news in advance!"
Li Changfeng answered, and the two jumped down from the eaves to help Guan Shouting and the others who were fighting with the soldiers in the laneway.
"You go first!"
Li Changfeng used his internal strength, and the sword blade was full of sword energy, and he knocked down the first three or five soldiers with a single sword. Seeing this, the surrounding soldiers did not dare to rush forward, while the rest seized the opportunity and used light skills to escape.
However, Zhang Danshen did not work lightly, and in desperation, Mao Yishan and Guan Shouting had to hold his shoulders and hold him up.
"Where is the traitor?!"
Hearing a loud shout, three figures with weapons in their hands rose from behind the soldiers, stepping on the shoulders of the soldiers and running towards everyone.
When Wu Kang heard the sound, he turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help but feel that the three of them were familiar. Who are these three people, it is Na Jia Xijie, and the two Pang brothers who fought with Wu Kang a few years ago.
"You go first!"
Li Changfeng had already gone up to the stone wall, and the three of them came one after another, and the weapons in their hands struck at Li Changfeng. The long sword in Li Changfeng's hand is shorter than the weapon in the hands of the three people, and he is irresistible, and he overcomes rigidity with softness. Li Changfeng dodged and dodged, and the three of them attacked menacingly.
The weapons of the three men struck the stone wall, leaving long marks on the stone wall. Li Changfeng jumped and stepped on Pang Long's shoulder, and without waiting for the three of them to react, he kicked on the chest of the unlucky egg Pang Hu on the side, and Pang Hu's whole person was blown out. Jacijay seized the opportunity and swept towards the sweep with the weapon in his hand.
Li Changfeng's sword blade struck upwards and blocked his weapon. With a backhand, the blade went straight to Jacijay's chest. Jia Xijie was startled, kicked hard under his feet, and retreated backwards before he could dodge the blade of the sword.
Pang Long reached out and grabbed his head, trying to pull Li Changfeng down. Li Changfeng reacted quickly, slapped his palm on the helmet of the side dragon, his body rose with strength, Pang Long grabbed the air, and slapped Li Changfeng.
Li Changfeng got up with the help of his strength, and wanted to collect the long sword and leave, no longer entangled with everyone.
Unexpectedly, Jacijay suddenly shot a poisonous needle. Who is Li Changfeng? Naturally, you can hear the six ways with your ears and see all directions.
"Huh!"
"Ding!"
"Phew!"
"Get out!"
"Bang!"
The half-sheathed sword was re-unsheathed, and the cold light was shining. With a loud shout, three inches of green silk fell, and six feet of green bricks collapsed. As soon as the long sword was retracted, the figure was gone.
"General Jia, we're here to help you!"
Zhu Zhong, who had just rushed out with the disciples of the Golden Bell Hall, shouted. saw that Jia Xijie and the three of them were not Li Changfeng's opponents, and they only dared to watch Li Changfeng go away.
Jia Xijie looked at the falling green silk and listened to the sound of the green bricks breaking behind him. For the first time, I felt that death, I was infinitely close.
"Chase, chase, don't let them run!"
Pang Hu, who had been kicked away before, got up and ordered the pursuit with the support of the soldiers.
Jia Xijie, who was stunned, was also drunk by Pang Hu, came back to his senses, waved his hand and was about to give an order, but saw a large number of soldiers and horses coming.
"Quick! Fast! ”
A large group of soldiers and horses, coming from nowhere, surrounded the alley of the Admiralty Hall.
"Who's it?"
Jia Jie watched the well-equipped and powerful team suddenly appear, and his heart was shocked.
"General Qiyu is, it's the prince's people!"
"Hahahaha, who is so popular, it turns out to be General Jia!"
As soon as the pawn finished speaking, he heard a hearty laugh from the periphery. Then, the face that Jacijay hated appeared from behind the soldier.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"The grass people have seen His Royal Highness the Prince!"
When Zhu Zhong heard that Sima Shu was coming, he was immediately taken aback, neither advance nor retreat, so he could only bite the bullet and salute Sima Shu together.
"Oh? It turns out that Hall Master Zhu is also there! Fortunately, I will be honored. ”
Sima Shu saw Zhu Zhong and said hello with a smile.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, in the inferior grass, it is inconvenient to be present on this occasion, so I will leave first!"
Zhu Zhong realized that on this occasion, he was still fast, and then accompanied by a smiling face, he said goodbye to Sima Shu.
"Hall Master Zhu is at his own convenience!"
Looking at Zhu Zhong with a flattering face, Sima Shu didn't want to say much, and waved his hand to let him go.
After Zhu Zhong got the agreement, he was naturally a slippery go.
And Jia Xijie was angry in his heart by Sima Shu's call of "General Jia", but he was under the eaves and had to bow his head. Facing the crown prince of the current dynasty, he could only take Pang Long and Pang Hu beside him and bow respectfully.
"That's it! Three generals, get up! ”
"His Royal Highness Prince Xie!"
"I don't know what the three generals are doing in this shadowy alley so early in the morning?"
Sima Shu looked at Jia Xijie and smiled slightly and asked.
When Jia Xijie heard this, he replied: "Your Highness, the three of us have received a secret letter that the wanted thief will commit a crime here today, so I brought my troops and horses to take down the thief!" ”
"Oh? A wanted thief? And what about the thieves? Why did Prince Ben only see the soldiers under the three generals? Sima Shu was still smiling, but his words were full of mockery.
In the face of Sima Shu's questioning, the three of them all froze, but they did not answer.
In the face of Sima Shu's continuous difficulties, the faces of the three of them became more and more ugly, but they could only eat Coptis chinensis dumbly, knock out their front teeth and swallow them in their stomachs, without saying a word.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we found knife marks and broken green bricks on the walls of the alley."
At this moment, the soldiers on the side handed over the blue bricks that had been broken when everyone was fighting with Li Changfeng before.
Sima Shu took the green brick, weighed it in his hand and said: "Three generals, don't tell Prince Ben, you are so vigorous and mobilize hundreds of people to just break a few green bricks.
Three generals, why don't you speak? Dare to ask, the soldier charm may borrow my view? If there is no soldier talisman, the three generals mobilize their troops and horses without permission, I am afraid that it will ......"
Without waiting for Sima Shu to finish speaking, Jia Xijie spoke: "Your Highness, because the three of us received a secret letter, the three of us were in a hurry to transfer troops, so we left the talisman in the camp, and I hope that Your Highness can be able to Haihan." ”
"Oh, I see, the next time the three generals mobilize their troops and horses, remember to bring the talisman with them. Even if you don't bring a military talisman, you have to catch a few wanted criminals in the mouths of the three generals, otherwise you will be covered by someone with a heart, and I am afraid that the three generals will not be able to afford it! Since there is nothing major, this prince will withdraw! Zhao Jun, collect the troops and return to the camp! ”
Sima Shu smiled slightly, and didn't wait for the three of them to talk, and after knocking on the side, he turned around and left.
"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
Zhao Jun glanced at the three of them, and with a wave of his hand, he ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
The three of them looked at the figure of Sima Shu leading the soldiers away, and secretly clenched their fists.
"Damn, this damn little hairy boy is actually here at this time!" Pang Hu slammed his fist on the wall next to him and complained.
Pang Long shook his head at his younger brother, while Jia Xijie looked at Sima Shu's departing back without saying a word.
…………
After reprimanding the three of them, Sima Shu, who walked out of the alley, smiled with a spring breeze on his face.
"Zhao Jun!"
"The last general!"
"Alright, alright. Don't be so serious, out of the alley, let the soldiers go to the camp and go back to the streets where they patrol! ”
"No!"
Zhao Jun turned around, and after giving the order to the soldiers, the soldiers immediately dispersed. Only Sima Shu's six personal guards and Zhao Jun were left, a total of eight people.
"Your Highness, aren't we going back to the barracks?"
"No return!"
"So where are we going?"
When Sima Shu heard this, he patted Zhao Jun on the shoulder and said, "Let's go!" Follow me to the eighth brother and them! ”
…………
Inside the small courtyard.
Wu Kang and the others had just arrived, and due to the hurry of running, they performed light skills all the way, except for Mao Yishan and Guan Shouting, who had deep internal strength, Wu Kang and the others were tired enough. As soon as he arrived in the courtyard, he sat on the ground with his butt in his head, panting for breath.
"Whew, I'm tired! Damn, it's Jasijay again, it's a good thing for us! ”
Wu Kang sat on the ground, gasping for breath, and did not forget to ask Jia Xijie again.
"Yes! If it weren't for the preparation in advance, the second brother would have arrived in time, and it would have been difficult for us to get out today! ”
"Our plan this time, it stands to reason that only a few seniors and our brothers know, how could Zhu Zhong and Jia Xijie set up an ambush in advance in the Admiralty Hall and wait for us to take the bait? It's weird! You can't guess, right? ”
Zhang Danshen was the most labor-saving one because he was held by Guan Shouting and the two people along the way. Thinking of the ambush just now, he touched his chin and paced back and forth in the courtyard. Listening to Zhang Danshen's reminder, everyone also looked at each other.
"Could it be that there is an inner ghost among us?"
After listening to Xiang Fei's words, everyone couldn't help but guess in their hearts.
"What are you doing? Why don't you go into the house? ”
Just as everyone was in deep thought, Li Changfeng, who had left the broken one, also jumped down from the tree and stood beside everyone to ask questions.
After Wu Kang told Li Changfeng everything that everyone said and thought just now, Li Changfeng also began to pay attention.
But after a while, Li Changfeng spoke: "Let's not guess blindly for the time being, it's easy to get infighting." Since the last time, Nangong Yaoyang has definitely increased his vigilance. Now that we are so close to the Prince, perhaps our movements have already been monitored.
It is not inexplicable that Jia Xijie led his troops to the Admiralty Hall to ambush him. Until the matter is decided, let's not speculate for the time being, and wait until the prince is told about the situation, and then we will investigate. Prevent infighting! ”
After listening to Li Changfeng's words, everyone also felt reasonable, and nodded and stopped worrying.
