It was not difficult to know which house those six people lived in. For a little money, the waiter told the people Duan Tianhe brought.
This time he went to round up and kill the six people who were following him. Duan Tianhe sent out six of his masters. Lu Zheng led more than ten Huben sergeants to ambush outside the inn wall and guard the front and rear entrances.
At the end of the day, three windows were opened from the upper floor of the inn, and six figures flashed out one after another. Just as they landed on the ground, six people also appeared from the corner of the yard. Both sides did not answer, and then stood with their weapons drawn.
in one place.
The Dali masters are better at coming prepared. Those six men in black were originally going to sneak attack others, but now they were attacked by others, and they were at a slight psychological disadvantage. In addition, the Dali masters were indeed superior in skills. After a while, they
A man in black groaned and fell to the ground. The remaining five people uttered a code word, and three of them struggled to withstand the attack of the powerful master. The other two picked up their companions on the ground and retreated while fighting.
The wall of the courtyard. One person carried the injured person on his back, and as soon as the other person offered his hand, the person jumped onto the wall with the injured person on his back, turned over and jumped down. The remaining four people in the courtyard were surrounded by powerful masters, and the situation was full of dangers.
At this time, another scream came from outside. The men in black naturally recognized the voice of their companions, and they were not interested in fighting. They ran towards the wall separately, thinking about getting over the wall. The Dali masters had already gained the upper hand.
How could they let them go? They all attacked and killed them with their weapons. The two who were running slowly had to turn around and fight again, while the two who were fast ran to the backyard and climbed over the wall.
The two men in black who climbed out of the wall saw the weapons protruding from the base of the wall before they landed. With a few puffs, they were stabbed by random blades while their bodies were still in the air. The two men in black inside
He also heard that there was an ambush outside, and there was no way to escape death if he went out, so he went crazy and slashed at the six Dali masters. However, the disparity was too great. Even after a few encounters, they were stabbed in many places on their bodies, screaming.
Those Dali masters caught him and took him out of the inn.
They were killing each other here, and the boss and waiters in the inn didn't dare to come out to stop them. The guests upstairs also hid in their rooms and didn't dare to come forward. It wasn't until there was no movement outside that the boss sent out the waiters.
Seeing that there was no one in the courtyard, he called the boss to come out and take a look. The boss hurriedly ordered someone to report to the Yamen.
King Wuyou brought back six men in black. Seeing that four of them were seriously injured and dead, he sent people to throw them away under the cover of night. The remaining two were sent by Duan Tianhe
The master led them, followed by Lu Zheng and a military doctor. The group quietly left the city and found a hidden place to torture the two.
After receiving the report from the inn, the city government hurriedly summoned the government officials to investigate the inn, and also searched the surrounding inns. Finally, they found four corpses in the distance, and asked the shopkeeper and waiters to identify them. They came just before nightfall.
A customer of the shop, Wu Zuo, examined the body and concluded that it was injured by a murder weapon. Seeing that these four people were wearing black clothes and walking out at night, they knew that they were not good people. After checking everything else, there was no abnormality.
When the officer saw King Wuyou and his entourage, there were many carriages and horses, and there were martial arts weapons inside. He wanted to ask questions, but the innkeeper took a lot of money from the convoy, so he naturally swore that there would be no problem: the business trip would be escorted by bodyguards
It was common practice, and the three inns had joint guarantees. In addition, there were many interactions between the government and the inns. Seeing that there was no other damage except the four people who died, we withdrew.
By daybreak the next day, the convoy was fully organized and all the way out of the city gate, continuing towards Qingcheng.
On the way, Duan Tianhe, Lu Zheng and others chased them, and the two men in black also dealt with them.
It turned out that these six people were all assassins sent by the Chu State. News came from the Chu State that a caravan with hundreds of people came out from the Qi State. It bypassed the Chen and Qin States and entered the Shu State. Look at the route.
He was heading towards Dali. Although he didn't know the reason, he concluded that there was some conspiracy between Qi and Dali. He sent six people to Shu to wait for an opportunity to find out. If there were important figures from Qi and Dali among them, they would kill them if possible.
These six people followed for two days and saw that several people in the convoy were of high status. However, seeing that there were many bodyguards in the convoy, they did not dare to take action rashly, so they thought of a trick to kill someone with a borrowed knife, and paid a large sum of money to lure the bandits into the woods.
They were robbed and killed the convoy. However, the bandits were just a mob, so they were killed by the samurai guarding the convoy.
The six people continued to follow and entered Dacheng. They wanted to go to the inn where the convoy was staying at night and capture a few people for interrogation, but they were ambushed.
Duan Tianhe reported the situation to King Wuyou as he walked. King Wuyou asked, "Are these the only people here?"
Duan Tianhe hurriedly replied: "I'm also worried that there are still some of them hiding in the dark, so I asked specifically. There are only six of them in the group. They don't know if anyone else is coming."
King Wuyou nodded and asked: "How far is it from us to Qingcheng? Where are the troops from your country now? How long will it take to meet us?"
Duan Tianhe thought for a while and said: "It's still five or six days' journey to Qingcheng. I got a flying letter from the prince yesterday, saying that he has brought people to the border. We have passed Qingcheng and walked for another five or six days.
Meet the eldest prince."
King Wuyou said: "Okay." He also told everyone to be more careful in the past ten days and rush as soon as possible to reach Dali Kingdom as soon as possible. Duan Tianhe, Lu Changfeng and others agreed, and hurriedly told people to pass on: hurry up and hurry up.
, each be careful.
From Dacheng to Qingcheng, there were no more troubles along the way. In Qingcheng, there were spies from Dali Kingdom, King Wuyou’s porcelain shop, and they also had friendships with the officials in the city, and they stayed there for a day.
The government also sent a group of soldiers to escort them to Lucheng.
As soon as they entered Lucheng, King Wuyou ordered Lu Zheng to take a lot of silver to the escorting Shu soldiers to thank them for their hard work along the way. Those soldiers were originally assigned by their superiors and thought they were on a hard job. Now everyone has their own hands.
After receiving a heavy amount of money, I was naturally happy. The captain who led the team said that he had some friendship with the defenders of Lu City, so he went to find those brothers who were close to him and brought this extremely close friend to him.
A good 'business' was introduced to them. The Shu army could not afford to pay their troops on weekdays, and these soldiers were complaining. After hearing about this convoy and escorting it, they would get a lot of money, so they naturally obeyed the order happily.
There was the school captain who had the final say and had men and horses under his command. He arranged for a group of soldiers and agreed to send the caravan down to Yicheng. King Wuyou also ordered Lu Zheng to give the school captain some money first.
After coming out of Lucheng, the escorting soldiers knew that the caravan was generous, so naturally they took the caravan to wait on me that day.
There was the leader leading the team inside, who would run to King Wuyou whenever he had nothing to do. This man's name was Tang Jinhu. He had been in the army for more than ten years. He had fought in more than a dozen battles, large and small, and killed countless enemies, but there was no one above him.
, and someone actually took all the credit. He had no ability to kill the enemy, but no ability to sneak into the camp. He was over thirty years old, and had nothing but scars all over his body. He was inevitably grumbling in his heart, but he couldn't tell people in the military camp, today
When he met King Ashoka, he saw that King Ashoka was extraordinary and generous, so he expressed his dissatisfaction.
King Wuyou looked at Tang Jinhu. Although he was born reckless, he was quite calculating. Listening to his tone, he also understood everything about the military. He also asked Lu Zheng to compete with him, and he was actually a warrior. That's it.
I was trying to win over him. I wasn't annoyed when I heard his complaints, but I smiled without saying a word.
After walking for two days, we were not far from Yicheng. Tang Jinhu came to King Wuyou again and sighed and said: We are about to break up with the salary, and I felt really reluctant to leave. King Wuyou also said kind words.
Just as he was talking, a group of soldiers came in front, led by a general. When he saw a pair of Shu soldiers in front of the caravan, he was stunned. Seeing that they were members of his own family, Tang Jinhu stepped forward to greet him, but the general muttered.
He mumbled and couldn't answer. Tang Jinhu became suspicious and asked a few more questions, but the general couldn't answer. Tang Jinhu didn't care about the difference in status and started yelling and scolding.
The general was interrogated by Tang Jinhu for a while. He was feeling annoyed when he heard Tang Jinhu scold him. He couldn't help but became furious. He waved his sword and ordered his soldiers to take action.
Duan Tianhe and Lu Changfeng were watching from the side. Seeing that the situation was not right, they became more careful and secretly ordered to be on guard. At this time, when they saw the Shu soldiers in front of them making trouble, they each grabbed their swords and rushed towards them.
For a time, hundreds of men and horses on both sides were fighting in one place. This group of Shu soldiers seemed to have a clear target of attack, and a dedicated group of people attacked and killed the family's carriage. Fortunately, the Dali masters and Lu Zheng also surrounded the princess.
Guarding the carriage, a few of them were highly skilled in martial arts, and dozens of Shu soldiers could not get close to the carriage. Those Shu soldiers who destroyed several carriages saw that Lu Zheng and others were guarding the princess's carriage, so they knew that this vehicle
There must be important people in the car, and they also rushed over.
Lu Zheng saw nearly a hundred people approaching the vehicle. Although he and seven or eight Dali masters were more than enough to deal with it, there were too many enemies. It was inevitable that someone would take advantage of the opportunity to get close to the vehicle. He felt a little anxious and swung the big halberd harder.
He also called Sergeant Huben to come over to help with the defense.
Next to King Wuyou were Duan Tianhe and Lu Changfeng, who fought hard to prevent the Shu soldiers from approaching King Wuyou. King Wuyou just smiled coldly and looked at the princess's vehicle and around it from time to time.
War situation.
While Duan Tianhe was fighting against the four or five Shu soldiers in front of him, he secretly glanced at King Wuyou. Seeing that King Wuyou was calm and relaxed, he couldn't help but secretly admire him.
This Shu army was all cavalry, with more than 300 people. King Wuyou and his troops were accustomed to cavalry fighting, and they also had war horses. Seventy or eighty men faced the opponent's more than a hundred men, and they had the upper hand. But Lu Changfeng's bodyguard
Although the divisions rode horses, they were not used to fighting on horseback. Most of them abandoned their horses and attacked and killed the Shu soldiers on foot, or mounted vehicles and stood on the vehicles to kill the enemies. Tang Jinhu's army consisted of forty or fifty people.
The light cavalry, on the other hand, responded to the opponent's forty or fifty people. There were more than a hundred Shu soldiers surrounding the princess's car and charging to kill them. The battle was in a stalemate for a while, and King Wuyou also saw that the attacking Shu soldiers were no ordinary cavalry.
, the combat power of this group of people is not much inferior to that of the Tiger Army, and they should be among the elites of the Shu Army. Look at Tang Jinhu shouting and commanding dozens of his men to form formations to fight, and dozens of ordinary light cavalry.
, can actually withstand the opponent's attack, it seems that Tang Jinhu is a useful talent.
King Wuyou was thinking secretly here. Seeing that the incoming Shu army failed to attack, under the command of the general, they abandoned the enemy in person and concentrated on attacking the princess's vehicle. King Wuyou saw that all the enemies rushed to the princess's car.
Qian. He hurriedly shouted to Lu Zheng: "Get out of the way!"
Lu Zheng and the Dali masters turned over and lay on the horse's belly. Then they saw the four sides of the cart open, revealing dense arrows. There was a sound of machine springs, and hundreds of crossbow arrows were shot out. They rushed to the front of the cart.
Those Shu soldiers were shot through in an instant, and their bodies were filled with bloody holes.
The Shu army behind saw a hidden weapon and hurriedly wanted to turn around and evacuate, but the Huben army had already surrounded them. Within a moment, more than half of the remaining 100 people were killed, and some who rushed out were also killed standing at a distance.
The Dali masters and bodyguards robbed and killed him.
Looking at the hundreds of corpses lying on the ground at the scene, King Ashoka ordered their identities to be checked immediately.
Tang Jinhu also came forward to watch and found that the cavalry were wearing the military uniforms of the Shu army, but did not have the military badges of the Shu army. Some of them had the Chu royal guard logo tattooed on their bodies. It seemed that these people were all Chu soldiers.
He thought about pretending to be a Shu army and attacking and killing King Wuyou and his party.
King Wuyou guessed that there might be some internal support from the Shu Kingdom. He let the Chu army enter the country, and then pretended to be the Shu army, taking advantage of his unpreparedness. Unfortunately, he met Tang Jinhu and asked about some military affairs. The Chu army
If you can't answer, you'll give it away.
King Wuyou thought for a while and said to Tang Jinhu: "Congratulations to General Tang. You have done a great job in killing the thieves pretending to be soldiers in this battle. However, you may not be able to reap the rewards here in Yicheng, but you can return to Lu
I have told the general Cheng that he will definitely be promoted to a higher rank."
After saying that, he asked Lu Zheng to pull a carriage and said to Tang Jinhu: "This is a cart of gold and silver. Please guard it here. Take this cart of gold and silver back immediately. When you meet your general, tell him
I originally followed his order to escort this cart to him, but the thieves targeted you and attacked you. Instead, you killed them all. Your general will probably like this cart. You will do the rest.
Take care of it yourself. When General Tang gains power in the future, remember our business dealings with Qi Ci and take good care of him!"
Tang Jinhu was not a fool. He naturally knew that the young master in front of him had given him a huge bargain. He got off his horse, gave a deep bow, thanked him, and ordered people to guard the scene. He took a few people with him and drove the carriage back in a hurry.
Lucheng.
When King Wuyou saw that Tang Jinhu had left, he said to Duan Tianhe and Lu Changfeng: "We only have less than a day's journey to the Dali border. Now that we are here, we no longer need the cover of these goods. Mr. Lu, the escort chief,
You take the gold and silver in this car with you as bodyguards, so go back quickly. The others abandoned their cars and replaced them with light cavalry. We bypassed Yicheng and went straight to Dali to meet Prince Duan."
Duan Tianhe waited until Lu Changfeng and others had left, and then he asked doubtfully: "Your Majesty, you called me just now because you were worried. Are the princesses and the others okay?"
King Wuyou smiled and said to Duan Tianhe: "Master Duan, the princess is already in your country of Dali at this time."
