Chapter 430 Attack
Fang Zian nodded slightly, and Xiao Yu's disdain and contempt for Qin Hui were barely concealed in his words. This actually shows that Xiao Yu is very likely to know Qin Hui's identity as Jin Guoxinzuo, otherwise Xiao Yu would not have said "I am not worthy"
These four words. The implication of these four words is actually to draw a clear line and disdain each other.
Combining the limited information obtained, Fang Zian thought further and came to a preliminary conclusion. Xiao Yu only knew the details of Qin Hui, but he was not necessarily Qin Hui's backer in the Kingdom of Jin. Because Xiao Yu had great disdain for Qin Hui.
Obviously, and if he was the knife that Qin Hui borrowed to kill people, there was no need for him to mention Qin Hui's name today. He should have kept it secret. After all, he needed to do it secretly, and there was no need to arouse his own vigilance.
Of course, this is only a preliminary judgment. If you want to get a more accurate conclusion, you need more information to make a judgment. Fang Zian wanted to make further inquiries, but he was afraid that it would be counterproductive. Today, he has actually asked
Xiao Yu was very unhappy. He sometimes said some words to test him, and then took the initiative to talk about some topics. Xiao Yu was disgusted with being on guard. Therefore, Fang Zian suppressed the conversation.
The host and guest drank wine and toasted each other, and neither party took the initiative to touch on sensitive topics. They only talked about the scenery of the north and south, poems and songs, and historical anecdotes. Xiao Yu was also a knowledgeable person. Although he was not from the Song Dynasty, he had read a lot of books.
They know a lot of articles, classics, and historical anecdotes. Shi Hao and Fang Zian are naturally knowledgeable people. When the three of them talked about these topics, they unexpectedly hit it off, and the atmosphere became extremely harmonious and warm. The guests and hosts toasted each other, chatted, and laughed.
Constantly. Those who knew understood that both sides had their own masters, and even officials from hostile countries would be opponents in future negotiations. Those who did not know thought it was a reunion of old friends, as if they had met too late.
Xiao Yu indeed sincerely entertained Shi Hao and Fang Zian, because he actually prepared a lot of entertainment programs. When the wine was full, Xiao Yu called over the musicians and dancers to play music, sing and dance, and the song was Song Dynasty.
The dancers danced popular songs and lyrics and dances that were popular in the Song Dynasty. Seeing Shi Hao looking at a dancer intently, Xiao Yu even suggested that these dancers, Shi Hao and Fang Zian, go back to the hotel to sleep tonight.
.Shi Hao and Fang Zian quickly rejected the proposal.
Regardless of the Jin Kingdom or the Song Dynasty, the bad habit of using concubines to sleep with distinguished guests still existed among princes and nobles. Xiao Yu did not do this to please Shi Hao and Fang Zian, nor did he even treat Shi Hao and Fang Zian as distinguished guests.
Perhaps it is just to break down the defenses of Shi Hao and Fang Zian, attract them with their beauty, and gain the initiative for future negotiations. In short, no matter what the purpose is, Fang Zian and Shi Hao are naturally unwilling to do this.
Although this kind of thing is very common, and there are no moral shackles in this era, after all, the two of them are prospective husband-in-laws. If such a thing happens to them, how will they face each other in the future?
The other party can't afford to be tough at the negotiation table.
It was halfway through the first update, and the banquet was about to end. The three of them drank the famous strong wolf wine of the Jin Kingdom, and they all felt a little smokey. Shi Hao and Fang Zian had discussed it before coming. For the sake of safety, they could not leave too late, so the two
They looked at each other and stood up to say goodbye.
Xiao Yu didn't force him to stay. He stood up and wanted to send the two Song envoys to the door of the mansion. The three of them had just stood up and were about to leave when they suddenly saw a servant coming in a hurry. He walked up to Xiao Yu and whispered a few words to Xiao Yu.
, Xiao Yu's expression changed after hearing this, and he frowned.
"Seriously? Have you heard clearly?" Xiao Yu asked.
"Inquiry clearly, Prime Minister." The servant whispered.
Xiao Yu nodded slowly, came to Shi Hao Fang Zian, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "I am very happy that the two noble envoys came to see you tonight. I haven't had such a happy drink in a long time. The moonlight is good tonight,
I didn't have time to admire the moon last night, so I can make up for it tonight. How about this, I will personally escort the two noble envoys back to the Embassy Station, so that I can enjoy the moonlight on the way."
Fang Zian felt a little strange. Even if the atmosphere of the banquet tonight was harmonious, there was no need for Xiao Yu to send him and others back to the hotel in person. The moon appreciation was obviously an excuse. He wanted to enjoy the moon, in his big house.
That is, why admire the moon on the road?
Shi Hao also seemed to notice something, and asked in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Xiao, has something happened?"
What's the matter?"
Xiao Yu chuckled and said: "It's nothing. It's like this. Our Yanjing is newly expanded, and all kinds of people have moved here. The city is mixed with all kinds of people, including all kinds of religions. I'm afraid that you are new here and don't know the way. If you wander around at night,
, it is very dangerous if you take the wrong road. Since you paid for my banquet to come here, I will make sure that you go back unscathed and without making any mistakes. You can also enjoy the moon on the way."
Fang Zian nodded secretly. Xiao Yu's words were cryptic, but something must have happened. He wanted to escort him and his party back to the hotel. This was what Fang Zian wanted. Fang Zian was worried about safety issues. Xiao Yu wanted to escort him, so naturally he wanted to escort him.
Clap your hands and welcome.
Shi Hao said: "How dare you ask Prime Minister Xiao to see you off in person? We already know the way back, so we don't bother to see you off."
Fang Zian smiled and said: "Master Shi, Prime Minister Xiao has shown his kindness, but you and Prime Minister Xiao are talking about it. Prime Minister Xiao is willing to give us a ride, why should we betray his kindness? Prime Minister Xiao, let's take a trip together."
"
Xiao Yu chuckled, nodded and said, "Wait a moment, you two. I'll change my clothes. It's cold outside."
…
It was a cold night, and the streets were deserted and deserted. The cold moon was shining brightly, and the streets seemed to be covered with a layer of hoarfrost. The wind lanterns on the street lampposts swayed in the cold wind, and the light was pale, like a will-o'-the-wisp.
.
This is only halfway through the first update, and it is already so deserted. The Yanjing Mansion, which will soon become the capital of the Jin Kingdom, is simply incomparable with Lin'an, the capital of the Song Dynasty. Or maybe it is because of the strict laws of the Jin Kingdom and the curfew policy implemented before moving the capital, so
It was so deserted and quiet.
Although Xiao Yu was sending two Song envoys, he did not walk side by side with Shi Hao and Fang Zian. Instead, he walked in front of the team surrounded by more than a dozen fully armed Jin soldiers. Fang Zian watched with cold eyes and found that
From time to time, Jin soldiers and cavalry came on horseback to report something to Xiao Yu, and then they galloped away and disappeared into the long street.
Fang Zian had a premonition that the situation was a little strange, so he whispered orders to Zhao Gang and others.
"Please stay calm, things are a bit strange. If something happens later, Zhao Gang, please immediately escort Mr. Shi to go first. Brother Feng and I will stay behind. Remember to protect Mr. Shi's safety as your first priority, and rush back to the inn to meet your brothers.
Let’s meet up.”
Zhao Gang promised in a low voice, and Shi Hao whispered beside him: "Zian, what could happen? Someone is going to do us harm, right?"
Fang Zian shook his head and said: "I don't know, but there is something strange. Xiao Yu suddenly wanted to bring a large number of people to escort us back to the hotel. He must have got some news. Otherwise, he didn't have the need. We are in a wolf's den and a tiger's den.
You have to be on guard. Don't worry, I will definitely protect you."
Shi Hao was surprised and had many questions, but at this moment he couldn't ask any more questions, so he could only nodded slightly.
A group of carriages and horses passed the intersection of East Street and turned to the street of South Street. The tall buildings and tree shadows on both sides blocked the moonlight. The wind lanterns at the intersection were all extinguished for some reason, and the surroundings were dark and gloomy. Fang Zian's alertness
He reached his peak in an instant, and the keen premonition he developed during his military days made him feel the presence of danger. He held the handle of the knife at his waist, tensed his whole body and looked around, ready to deal with unexpected situations at any time.
The carriages and horses slowly entered the darkness. Xiao Yu's men and horses in front were already under the moonlight, but when Fang Zian, Shi Hao and others were still turning the corner, a harsh whistle sounded through the dark long street. The next moment, the two men
Bow strings buzzed above the dark houses on the side, and arrows shot from the houses on both sides with a shrill whistling sound.
"Someone is attacking! Protect Mr. Shi!" Fang Zian shouted almost as soon as the whistle sounded. At the same time, he jumped up and landed on Shi Hao's horse, hugging Shi Hao and rolling him to the ground.
The war horse neighed and jumped, and the soldier who was hit by the arrow groaned and fell to the ground. The scene was extremely chaotic for a moment. Fang Zian hugged Shi Hao and hid beside the horse corpse that was shot by the bow and arrow. He could only hear the continuous sound of the bowstring and screams.
The sound was heard everywhere, and the situation was chaotic.
"Zhao Gang, protect Mr. Shi, use crossbows to counterattack and suppress him." Fang Zian shouted loudly.
In fact, there was no need for Fang Zian to give orders, Zhao Gang had already ordered
The entourage counterattacked. The crossbows clicked, and the crossbow arrows shot towards the roofs on both sides with a piercing whine. At the same time, all the soldiers and horses rushed towards the house on one side, so that they could quickly enter the attacker's bows and arrows on the roof on one side.
The blind spot for shooting avoids being shot by bows and arrows on both sides. On the other hand, the pillars under the eaves can be used as a barrier to protect one's own strength. More importantly, enemies on the roof on one side can be quickly killed in close quarters.
Therefore, when everyone rushed to the east side of the eaves, Fang Zian and Feng Yiming immediately climbed onto the roof from under the side corridor eaves. Feng Yiming's light body skills were really good. He stepped alternately on the corridor columns with both feet.
Jumping in the air and reaching out to cling to the eaves, a swallow turned over and climbed onto the roof. When he stood up, he took a bow and arrow in his hand and fired three arrows in succession, killing the three men in black who were drawing their bows and releasing arrows on the roof.
Only then did Zian climb up the roof with the help of a hook. But once he entered into a close-quarters fight, Fang Zian's terrifying close-quarters fighting ability immediately showed its power. He jumped between a dozen men in black, and Fang Zian's every move
The attacks are all fierce killing moves. The fighting skills of the special forces are all about killing with one blow or making the opponent lose their combat effectiveness with one blow. Therefore, every move Fang Zian makes is to cut the throat, hit the temple, kick the lower body and stab the heart and ribs.
His killing move, using fists, feet and weapons simultaneously, killed four people in an instant and seriously injured one person.
The two men rushed to kill each other on the roof like tigers entering a flock of sheep. There were many men in black attacking on the roof. There were a total of fifty or sixty black shadows on the nearby roof and on the roof where Fang Zian and Feng Yiming were standing. Although they were killed in a very short time.
Eight or nine people were knocked down. Although they were frightened in their hearts, they kept their position. They threw away their bows and arrows, drew their long knives, and jumped from the surrounding rooftops to surround and kill them.
The attacking enemy on the opposite roof also realized that the opponent was hiding in the darkness under the opposite eaves and was covered by a bunker, so he gave up shooting with bows and arrows. With a whistle, forty or fifty black shadows jumped down from the opposite roof.
Holding gleaming weapons, they came to cover them up silently. Although Zhao Gang and a dozen other fire brigade soldiers under the eaves were few in number, they had to get up to fight. The two sides were about to turn into a melee. This kind of situation
In this situation, Fang Zian's side is actually going to suffer a big loss. Although there are a few good fighters, the opponent's number is several times greater. Previously, random arrows killed five fire brigade soldiers and injured eight or nine. A total of only
The thirty-man bodyguard can only fight with more than twenty people, and they cannot resist the enemy's encirclement and killing. The situation is extremely bad.
At this moment, Xiao Yu galloped back in front with more than a dozen guards on horseback, standing in the middle of the street. Xiao Yu shouted loudly: "Xiao Yu, the Right Prime Minister of Dajin, is here. Don't be presumptuous. All of you, please stand down."
.”
The group of men in black stopped, and one of them, who was tall and covered his head and face, shouted in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Xiao, we are here for the envoys of the Song Dynasty. We have no intention of offending Prime Minister Xiao. Please stop meddling in other people's business.
We are here to take orders from the envoys of the Song Dynasty, Prime Minister Xiao had better not ruin our affairs."
Xiao Yu shouted coldly: "I don't want to ask who you are. What grudges you have with the envoys of the Song Dynasty, I don't want to ask. But tonight, the envoys of the Song Dynasty are my guests, and I must ensure their safety. If
You know the current situation, give me face, and retreat immediately. Otherwise, you will definitely regret going against me, Xiao Yu. I only need to give an order, and none of you can escape. There are already a thousand city defenses ambushing me at the nearby street.
Army. When the time comes, none of you will be able to survive."
A group of men in black looked at each other. Xiao Yu's appearance was an accident. They didn't expect Xiao Yu to appear here. They saw the opportunity quickly and knew that Xiao Yu would not succeed today, so they immediately made a decision.
"Okay, give Prime Minister Xiao a face tonight. After tonight, they will no longer be your guests. Then we will kill them again in the future. Prime Minister Xiao actually helped people from the Song Dynasty. We must report this matter. Prime Minister Xiao
, my people will be taken away whether they are dead or alive, Prime Minister Xiao, don’t object.”
"Of course I don't object, take them all away." Xiao Yu said coldly.
The man in black blew his whistle, and the men in black who were surrounding Fang Zian and Feng Yiming on the east roof immediately stopped, collected their fallen and injured companions and their bodies, jumped off the roof, and joined another group of men in black.
