1118 ambush
After the group left the city gate, they were a little dissolute! Because when they were in the Qinglou just now, everyone drank a lot of wine. Although these families are only scratching the surface, it is not without stories that people are drunk when they are not drunk. A small amount of alcohol and the girls who accompanied the wine had already made the hearts of these young men hot!
In everyone's impression, probably going to the Qinglou is to go to prostitution. Actually, no! In ancient times, there was a clear difference between a green house and a brothel?
As the name suggests, brothels are engaged in the leather and meat business, and they carry them to dance and sing songs for customers. This is not the case with the Qinglou, which is mainly based on singing and dancing. The girls inside are all beautiful women who are proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can recite poems and make pairs! Of course, the leather and meat business is inevitable, but it is definitely not the main business.
Liu Haojia and his family naturally wouldn't openly stay overnight in the Qinglou, so he just took these family members to listen to music and watch songs and dances. Even so, it was a big adventure for these lads. You must know that the Qinglou that Liu Haojia went to is the top Qinglou in Nanjing, and the girls in it are all the top Qingqi people with the most top skills. So whether it's listening to music or watching singing and dancing, it's a great enjoyment! Of course, the money spent is also top-notch!
And don't think that Liu Haojia's family members are rough people with developed limbs and simple minds, that's completely wrong! Because he completely regarded his family as an officer school. They have to study and practice martial arts every day, and they are basically characters who are both civil and military.
Of course, although they only know a rough idea of the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, their foundation is matched with the welcome of their sisters, and it is no problem to enjoy some songs and dances happily! It's just that the minds of these young people may not be in singing and dancing.
So someone whispered to your companion: "The sister who accompanied me today is really good!" I can grab it with a small waist! ”
His companion also whispered with a strange smile: "What's that!" The little hands of the sister who accompanied me are soft and tender, and they are called weak and boneless to the touch! ”
A large group of young people who are young and vigorous and have strong firepower get together, and in addition to talking about martial arts, they are probably talking about girls, or the order should be reversed. So Liu Haojia didn't stop it and let them be happy. You know, he started the limelight first. And the one who played the piano and sang for him tonight was one of the famous top names in Nanjing.
Everyone talked and laughed, riding horses all the way, blowing the wind, it was really comfortable, and it was a lot more sober. But in the grass two miles away, Zhao Rongting, who was impatient from mosquito bites, said in a low voice: "Brother Hu, why did the commander come back so late today?" Will it not come back? ”
Hu Qingyan was also confused at this time, but he couldn't show an impatient look, so he could only whisper: "What's the hurry? Just wait, it's not like he won't come back! ”
Zhao Rongting waved away the mosquito in front of him with his backhand and muttered, "What if he really doesn't come back?" ”
At this time, Hu Qingyan was also a little irritable, and he roared deep in his throat and said, "If he doesn't come back, we'll find a place to sleep, and we'll block him tomorrow!" ”
Seeing Hu Qingyan's appearance, Zhao Rongting pursed his lips and didn't speak, but just waved his hand to a few people behind him, signaling them to be patient a little longer.
This time, the two of them each brought four henchmen, all of whom were loyal and brave, and dared to fight and kill! Moreover, they also took turns to observe Liu Haojia's daily round-trip route, and also inspected several ambush sites on the way, and then quietly ambushed here when the moon was dark and the wind was high today. Their ambush was already very close to the barracks, so they had to move fast enough!
At this time, Hu Qingyan, who was a little irritable, also felt that he couldn't drag it out like this anymore, so he simply sat in the grass and said to a few people behind him: "Say it again at the end!" In a moment we all shoot our bows and arrows together, remember, shoot horses and don't shoot people! After shooting the feathered arrows, let's retreat to the woods behind, and the horses are there! When the time comes, hurry up and rush to the river, where there are boats to meet you! Have you memorized them all? ”
Everyone nodded their heads in understanding, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief! To be honest, the family members don't want to be willing to participate in the assassination of Shangguan, because the crime is too big! If it weren't for the fact that they were already tied to the master's family, maybe they would rather run away than do this kind of thing of raiding the house and destroying the door at this time
Fortunately, when I heard Hu Qingyan emphasize again that shooting horses and not shooting people, the psychological pressure was much lighter. But they don't want to think about it, as long as they shoot an arrow at Liu Haojia, whether they hit it or not, it will be a capital crime!
After Hu Qingyan finished speaking, he honestly squatted in the grass and counted the stars! Just when they were waiting a little impatiently, they suddenly saw a shadow in the distance, and there seemed to be a flickering light of torches!
The road from the city gate to the barracks was flat. There is no place for hiding. So you can see the lights from a distance, which brings a lot of trouble to the ambush! Fortunately, the grass on both sides grew very densely, and a few people could ambush the roadside from leaning down!
The group was bitten by mosquitoes for a long time, but fortunately, the main lord finally came, so several people became nervous. They stared into the distance, and as the firelight approached, they could already faintly discern a group of horseback riders moving forward with torches.
Hu Qingyan said in a low voice at this time: "Prepare bows and arrows!" Remember, shoot just one arrow, and we'll run when you're done! ”
Zhao Rongting added another sentence next to him: "Remember, only shoot horses, don't shoot people!" ”
Then everyone took off the bow they were carrying, but only one feathered arrow was tied to the bow. This is also a special request from Hu Qingyan. Anyway, I didn't plan to really fight, so what are you doing with the quiver and so many arrows? Are you afraid that you will run fast? That's why there is a strange scene in front of me!
All of them fastened their feathered arrows to their bowstrings, and the men were half-kneeling, staring at the approaching horse team in the distance above the grass. Seeing that they were approaching a hundred paces away, they could already be sure that it was Liu Haojia who led the people! Because the clothes on their bodies can't be faked, they shine in the firelight!
At this time, Hu Qingyan said in a low voice: "Steady, steady!" When we got closer to forty paces, we shot arrows! ”
Then Zhao Rongting took the trouble to follow him and said: "Remember, only shoot horses, not people!" ”
Everyone was annoyed by his repetitive words, but they could understand his mood at the moment! What's more, the target to be assassinated is in front, so no one cares about him!
