Chapter 339: Assassination of Ying Zheng

Xiao Guan, according to the shoulders of the eight counties, the key to the three towns.

This pass, in ancient times, was a battleground for soldiers, guarding the military important place in the northwest.

When people of later generations mention Xiao Guan, they will always think of Hu Ji Qiang flute, artemisia grass, white bones, and the brutal scenes of war, etc., many literati and writers who are worried about the country and the people will use Xiao Guan as the material in their poems and articles.

Bai Zhong has traveled for so many years, and it is the first time he has come to Xiaoguan, and there is no Hu Ji Qiang flute at this time, but the traces of war can be seen everywhere, and some white bones can be seen outside the city.

"The environment here is not very good, and the soldiers who are stationed here are hard."

Ying Zheng climbed the tower of the pass, looked outside, and felt something.

When the soldiers guarding the gate heard this, their hearts were sour.

Xu Xian said: "The minister leads the soldiers, guarding the throat of the northwest of Great Qin, no matter how hard it is, it is worth it, if Xiao Pass is lost, the relatives of the ministers and other relatives in the pass will become the target of foreign slaughter." ”

The soldiers guarding Xiao Pass are all ordinary people in Guanzhong.

Only when it is related to their own interests, the soldiers will desperately guard here, and they will never allow the Hu people to step into the pass for half a step.

The soldiers guarded Xiao Pass, not only for Daqin, but also for their own families.

Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Zhao Gao, help me write it down first, and then improve the treatment of all the soldiers in Xiaoguan after I go back." ”

"Yui!"

Zhao Gao responded.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Xu Xian thanked him.

The other guards of Xiaoguan on the city tower shouted in unison, thanking Yingzheng for his gift.

Ying Zheng walked down the city tower and was about to inspect the situation in the military camp, boost the morale of the guards, and let them do their best to guard the northwest border for Daqin, but he was only halfway there......

"Your Majesty, be careful!"

Gai Nie jerked his head up, drew his sword out of its sheath, and slashed it down with a single sword.

Sou......

The sound of breaking the sky quickly came from the guards next to him, and more than a dozen crossbow arrows shot quickly.

The object of the crossbow arrow is Yingzheng.

No one could have imagined that after waiting for such a long time for an assassination, they would finally appear in Xiao Pass, and those assassins would blend in with Xiao Guan's soldiers and find an opportunity to make a move, but Gai Nie reacted the fastest, swinging his sword and knocking down the crossbow arrows.

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Bai Zhong shouted.

Fifty masters stepped forward at the same time and supported Yingzheng's side.

Ying Shu brought the people on the Black Ice Platform and killed the assassins who attacked with crossbow arrows first.

Xu Xian was stunned, this he meowed in his own military camp, and the assassins wanted to kill His Majesty, didn't this mean his life, including the lives of other soldiers in Xiao Guan, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a while.

As soon as Ying Shu led people to chase and kill the assassins who attacked with crossbow arrows, he hid among the guards at the gate, and the other assassins instantly appeared, carrying swords in their hands to kill Ying Zheng.

There were one hundred and twenty Assassins.

They are all masters, they all have internal breath in their bodies, this time the assassination, they are all dead soldiers, they didn't think about going back when they came, either Yingzheng died, or they died.

Or they and Yingzheng will die together.

"Brother Gainie, Your Majesty will hand it over to you."

"Kill!"

Bai Zhong shouted.

Gai Nie hurriedly protected Yingzheng's side, and the latter was furious that so many assassins had mixed into his soldiers, and no one noticed it, and at the same time he was very unhappy with those assassins.

He must find a way to get rid of all the people behind the assassins.

Bai Zhong faced the assassin and killed several people in an instant.

The strength of the fifty masters was brought into play at this time, and the group protected Yingzheng, although their cultivation time was not long, but there were systematically produced cultivation cheats, and they improved very quickly.

Fifty masters, against more than a hundred assassins, is not a problem at all.

The Iron Eagle Ruishi and the people of the Black Ice Platform immediately started to kill, and the assassins must not be allowed to get close to His Majesty.

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Xu Xian finally relented and shouted in a panic.

All the soldiers guarding Xiao Pass killed the more than 100 masters at the same time.

The chaotic scene appeared in front of Yingzheng's eyes, but he didn't panic at all, he stood quietly and watched, out of trust in Bai Zhong and Gai Nie, he was not afraid of the assassin in front of him.

Yingshu killed the assassin who attacked with crossbow arrows, and returned to join the battle.

More than a hundred assassins, unable to break through the protection of Gai Nie and fifty masters, were all killed in the end, and the corpse fell at Ying Zheng's feet, and the blood could stain his shoes red.

After Bai Zhong finished killing the enemy who appeared, he immediately turned around and blocked Yingzheng with Gai Nie, and at the same time, his senses were fully opened, paying attention to all the movements around him, worried that there were other assassins who had mixed in, and would launch a second attack.

"The whole army is on alert, and all the soldiers on the city tower are not allowed to move in place, otherwise there will be no mercy!"

"Pass my military order, and the soldiers resting in the camp will immediately gather and surround this place."

"Protect Your Majesty!"

Xu Xian was uneasy in his heart, and understood how serious the matter was this time.

He must make amends for his mistakes in the management of the army.

The army was quickly assembled, and now some of the soldiers on the city tower, no one dared to move, and stood cautiously in place, looking nervously at Yingzheng.

Bai Zhong shouted, "Protect Your Majesty and return to the camp." ”

They came out of Xianyang and also brought 100,000 troops, and quickly left the camp at this time to escort Yingzheng back.

Gai Nie and fifty masters, always by his side.

"Old General, investigate thoroughly!"

Ying Zheng was not angry with Mr. Xu, since he was going to come out as a bait, he expected this scene.

The enemy's means are not low, and he is determined to blend in with the soldiers, which is not something that Xu Xian can control, not to mention that Xu Xian still doesn't know about Yingzheng as a bait.

"The minister understands!"

Xu Xian knew that the king had let him go, and his tense nerves finally relaxed, and he immediately asked people to find out how the assassin had mixed in.

Back to camp.

Bai Zhong and Gai Nie's vigilance hadn't relaxed yet.

Fifty masters were on the periphery, and the Black Ice Platform and the Iron Eagle Ruishi were also outside, their faces revealing nervousness.

Ying Zheng said: "Okay, the assassin should not come again, just now my life was saved by Gai Nie Zhuang." ”

Gai Nie put away his sword and said solemnly: "If Your Majesty is killed, I am afraid that there will be another army in this world, I don't know how many people will die, the minister promised Wu Anjun that he will definitely not let His Majesty be in danger." ”

"The strong man is right!"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, whether the peace in the world is in him alone.

If the first emperor does not die, who in the world dares to rebel?

Bai Zhong said: "Your Majesty, the minister suggests that the soldiers we brought out from Xianyang should also be thoroughly investigated. ”

Ying Zheng nodded and said: "Let the Black Ice Platform do it, I will rest for a while, the old general's side, Wu Anjun will also go to help, and the safety of this camp will be enough for Shu'er and Gai Nie Zhuangshi." ”

After an assassination, the guards around him will increase their vigilance, and in a short period of time, it will be difficult for the enemy to assassinate him a second time, and it is still safe.

He was also worried that Xu Xian's side would not have a master in charge, and if there were assassins, it would be very unfavorable to Xu Xian.
