Chapter 91: The Assassination Outside the Guild Hall
The next day, Huang Zhang inquired about the location of the barbarian camp and drew two routes on the map for Ke Wushu to go from the prefect's mansion to the barbarian camp.
The first one is to take Wucheng Avenue, but it is far away. The second one is to start from the east gate, but it has to pass through several small corners, one of which is where they live now.
Huang Zhang looked at the two routes marked on the map and fell into deep thought.
"We don't know where Ke Wushu will go from now. If we make a mistake in judgment, we may lose this assassination opportunity! Let's analyze it. Which way will Ke Wushu take to the barbarian camp?" Huang Zhang asked
.
After Sunu saw the map, she pointed to the road to the east gate.
"I expect Ke Wushu will leave from here!"
Seeing that Su Nu was so sure, Huang Zhang immediately asked curiously: "How are you sure?"
Su Nu took out a piece of paper from somewhere, and the next day's martial law route was clearly written on it.
"This is what I found at the city gate when I went to explore the road. The barbarians have cleared the road to the east gate. Within tomorrow, there will not be a stranger on the road to the east gate, but Wucheng Avenue has not been closed.
control."
"..."
Huang Zhang thought Su Nu would have something to say, but he didn't expect it to be such a message.
"Then what if this is a smoke bomb released by Ke Wushu just to blind us?"
Sunu gave him a blank look.
"Have you ever been to Wucheng Avenue?"
Huang Zhang shook his head.
"Then I suggest you go take a look! Now that I heard that the barbarians are going to send troops, the merchants in Wucheng are going crazy. They all want to take the opportunity to go out of Wucheng. Now the Wucheng Avenue has been blocked by vehicles of all sizes.
Stay here, even if Ke Wushu tries to deceive him, he has no chance!"
When Huang Zhang heard this, he immediately nodded and said, "It seems that I am worrying too much."
Then he looked at Zhuang Chengfeng again.
"Chengfeng, have you found the assassination location?"
Zhuang Chengfeng nodded and struck the ground with his sword.
"What do you mean?" Huang Zhang was stunned.
"This is the best place for assassination!"
Huang Zhang couldn't believe it, "It can't be such a coincidence, right? Is that what you're talking about?"
Zhuang Chengfeng nodded.
"I've seen it. This place is the only way Ke Wushu must pass. And this place is right at a corner. It's surrounded by dark alleys for hiding. As long as Ke Wushu breaks out when he passes the corner, he will definitely be able to defeat him.
He was caught off guard, which is very convenient for assassination! Moreover, this place is very close to the east gate. After the assassination, you can evacuate Wucheng as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Huang Zhang suddenly became suspicious.
"What a coincidence!"
Huang Zhang couldn't help but be so suspicious. He suddenly felt like he was being set up by someone. Why did he feel that everything happened so coincidentally as soon as he arrived in Wucheng?
Jia Yuan's army of dead soldiers who had ambushed him had been taken away by him. Now he wanted to assassinate him, but he didn't expect that the place where he lived was the best place for assassination.
All this is too coincidental.
"No matter what, since we have made arrangements, even if we are greeted by a sharp blade tomorrow, we still have to jump in!" Huang Zhang encouraged himself.
…
Early the next morning, Huang Zhang and the others lurked in the dark alleys around the guild hall.
Originally, Zhuang Chengfeng was enough for the assassination, but Huang Zhang was worried. When things went too smoothly, it often meant there was a problem. He wanted to see what Ke Wushu was up to.
After waiting for a long time, the barbarian guards finally appeared.
When Ke Wushu set out this time, there was not much ostentation. It was just a simple guard and a convoy, which was very ordinary.
But the more this happened, the more frustrated Huang Zhang felt.
Is it possible that Ke Wushu was so confident that no one would assassinate him? He just cleared the way? Huang Zhang didn't believe it. He didn't believe in a barbarian commander who could defeat Bian Huan. He couldn't even imagine this.
But the fact is still like that. Ke Wushu did not send spies to inquire about the surrounding situation, nor did he have a large guard formation. Now he is only followed by the No. 40 or 50 Guards, a lonely carriage.
Huang Zhang looked at the approaching carriage and was already ready to move. Zhuang Chengfeng beside him was even ready to draw his sword.
In the eyes of a top-notch master, as soon as he takes action, it happens in an instant. With one sword, Zhuang Chengfeng gallops forward, and his fame is not in vain!
"Be prepared! Kill as soon as you get close!" Huang Zhang whispered.
"boom!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
But before Huang Zhang had time to call for action, the walls on both sides of Ke Wushu's carriage suddenly collapsed, and a group of assassins began to rush out of the guild hall and kill the barbarian guards.
Huang Zhang looked at it and was stunned for a moment: "I'll go! Is there anyone else who is also assassinating?"
Zhuang Chengfeng and Su Nu were also stunned.
Especially Zhuang Chengfeng, his sword had already been slightly unsheathed, but he didn't expect someone else to get in first.
"Do you want to come up?" Zhuang Chengfeng asked.
Huang Zhang raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, let's take a look first."
It happened that he felt uneasy in his heart. Since someone had taken action first, he wanted to see where his uneasy feeling came from.
Hearing Huang Zhang's words, Zhuang Chengfeng also put the sword in his hand back into its sheath and looked at the assassination on the road.
This group of people was obviously more prepared than Huang Zhang and the other three. Not to mention how thick the wall was, they fell down with just a slight push. Even the actions of these assassins after they appeared were clearly rehearsed.
Each of these assassins was armed with a crossbow and shot at the barbarian guards while charging.
In just a moment, the barbarian number 40 or 50 was already half lying down.
"This crossbow is very powerful!" Huang Zhang looked at the crossbow, his eyes shining brightly.
"I think I've seen this crossbow before!" Zhuang Chengfeng suddenly said.
Hearing what Zhuang Chengfeng said, Huang Zhang turned around and asked, "Have you seen it? Where was it?"
Zhuang Chengfeng frowned and shook his head: "I can't remember."
"..."
After killing most of the barbarian guards with crossbows, the assassins threw away the crossbows in their hands, then raised the long knives in their hands and started to fight with the barbarian guards.
These assassins were trained to work in groups of three, capable of both offense and defense. Every time the barbarians tried to attack them, two long knives would come at them from two directions.
They are just guards. In terms of strength, they are stronger than ordinary barbarians, but no matter how strong they are, they are not as strong as carefully trained killers.
In just the blink of an eye, the assassins killed all the members of the guard.
More than ten people surrounded the carriage.
"Something's wrong!" Zhuang Chengfeng said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Huang Zhang asked immediately.
"The aura of the carriage is getting stronger! There is a first-rate powerhouse in the carriage!"
As soon as Zhuang Chengfeng finished speaking, several assassins rushed into the carriage eagerly.
But in just a moment, the assassins were knocked out, lying on the ground and dying immediately.
Several other assassins looked at each other, knowing something was wrong, and fled around.
But before they could get far, a dozen air arrows were fired from the carriage, hitting the hearts of these assassins.
"ah!"
Accompanied by bursts of screams, the assassins had completely died.
Just when Huang Zhang and the others were about to leave, a graceful female voice suddenly came from the carriage: "You're already here, why are you hiding?"
