Chapter 146 Assassination
Thanks to my friend Junzibai, Fantasy Under the Sea and Sister Hua’s monthly ticket!
Seeing that the fewer people in the battlefield had an absolute advantage. The vendors who were originally afraid of the melee that the Jiao family rushed over and retreated unconsciously surrounded Sun Ce.
Someone had already begun to whisper while approaching: "What are these warriors? They can kill all the family soldiers of Jiao Zhengqian with one of the ten generals! You must know that Jiao Zhengqian is a court official who even the prefect wants to sell his face in Kuaiji County!"
"What's the matter? Jiao Zhengqiang's family soldiers are domineering, because they will only bully us incompetent people, and will not meet the real superiors.
Just like they deal with such melon scholars, who can stop them? Besides, they are very clever in concealing their concealment in front of the prefect and never dare to show off.
Even if the prefect wants to punish them, he still has no choice. But if you walk by the river often, there is no one who doesn’t get wet! You see, they hit the south wall this time, haha! It’s so satisfying!”
"Who made them always bully the people for being sad about the tiger? This time they finally encountered a tough guy. But now it seems that it will be difficult for them to turn back!"
These two pedestrians who spoke seemed to have been oppressed and bullied by these family soldiers. The tone of speaking was a bit proud and comfortable.
"Look at how their flags look so familiar? It seems like they have seen them there!"
"I can't see clearly this, what's the look! The lion embroidered on the red flag is exactly the same as the one on the Jiangnan Army's flag. However, its color is golden!"
"Golden Lion! Could it be that he is a senior figure in the Jiangnan Army? No wonder he is not afraid of being the scene of one or ten. He is the elite!"
"Look, see that the living Jiao family soldiers dismounted and surrendered!"
"You fool, what can you do if they don't surrender? Are you waiting for all the powerful crossbows to be shot into hedgehogs? But these elite Jiangnan Army soldiers are really ruthless! How much effort is there, at least half of the people in the Jiao family have died!"
Just as the pedestrians were talking and watching the Jiao family soldiers, all of whom were dismounted by the orders, a loud roar suddenly sounded from the crowd: "Take it!"
Three smoke-like figures rushed out of the crowd and rushed towards the unprepared Sun Ce. At the same time, two of the Jiao family soldiers jumped up in the air and rushed towards Sun Ce not far away.
The crossbowmen, who were waiting for the battle, just gently lifted the crossbow in their hands. The water-splashing arrows shot towards the two human bodies in the air. The knives in the hands of these two people only blocked several powerful arrows and were shot into hedgehogs.
The powerful crossbows improved by Ma Jun cannot be easily blocked by swords. These people should have a very good understanding of the crossbows equipped by the Jiangnan Army in the past. They wanted to use their skillful sword skills to block the crossbow arrows and assassinate Sun Ce.
However, the force contained in this crossbow arrow has increased several times. Just one arrow makes them lose the mastery of the sword in their hands. The person who flew over the air has no ability to block, and it is a ghost that is not shot into a hedgehog.
The crowd was not far from where Sun Ce was, and the three assassins had arrived behind Sun Ce and others in a blink of an eye. Three sharp swords flashed with cold light and instantly assassinated three guards in the rear. The originally not-so-secret defense suddenly opened a big mouth.
The merchants who were gradually approaching were shocked by the assassination that suddenly occurred in front of them.
It was like a flock of evil wolves breaking into the flock, and a chaotic conflict suddenly arose. But no one dared to approach the battle circle where he began to fight, but ran away as far as possible along the official road.
Countless people fell out of the chaos of the collision, but more people stopped and found themselves running barefoot.
After all, no one knows whether these seemingly cruel and ruthless killers will massacre even the innocent people. If you just watch the fun, you will kill yourself. No one will do such a stupid thing.
Following Sun Ce's ten guards of the Governor's Office were all elites carefully selected by Song Qian. The more crowded the scene, the more they were, the more they were more vigilant they were. Almost instinctively, they expanded the scope of defense to a distance of ten steps.
The three brothers who lived together day and night died instantly, which made the other seven people scream in grief and anger. Fortunately, their defense circle was still a little far away, leaving some reaction distance for Sun Ce and the others.
The remaining seven guards quickly picked up the crossbows, but the three figures in the air had already landed behind Sun Ce. If they wanted to use the crossbow to snipe, they would be afraid that even Sun Ce and others would be attacked by the crossbow arrows.
However, these assassins who easily rushed past the defense of the elite guards finally met the ultimate guard power beside Sun Ce. Before they could set off their swords, a more sharp sword energy on the left slashed towards an assassin in his left hand.
Shi Ah, who had reacted, began to counterattack without thinking. But Shi Ah's casual sword was even more sophisticated and domineering than the sword that the assassin attacked with all his strength.
Almost the moment the sword technique was unfolded, the assassin's attack route was completely blocked. If he dared to attack closer, before his sword stabbed Sun Ce, he could only be cut into a human stick by Shi A's sword one step earlier.
If both arms were cut off, under Shi'a's dense sword force, the assassin had no room for resistance. Zuo Ci, who was on the right, also jumped up from the horse at the same time and stopped another assassin in front of him.
A strange-shaped crutch even hit the invaders.
The beautiful girl who was originally sobbing softly in Sun Ce's arms suddenly heard a mess behind Sun Ce. She looked up in surprise, but immediately saw a sharp sword shining with cold light stabbing towards Sun Ce's back.
He immediately screamed: "Ah! Be careful behind you!"
At this time, the hugs face to face made Sun Ce feel a little strange. Although the girl was a little immature, her fearful look with the pear blossoms in the rain was even more adorable.
Hearing the girl's warning, Sun Ce smiled calmly and said, "Don't worry! Just a few people jumping!"
While speaking, he exerted a little force between his knees. The black dragon horse, who cooperated with the tacit understanding, suddenly jumped forward with two steps. He instantly left the range covered by the assassin's sword force, then turned back to the horse's head and faced the assassin calmly.
The assassin's sword that he must have hit was gone. He looked up in shock and saw the two accomplices who were leaping up among the Jiao family's soldiers being shot into the body of a hedgehog by arrows and smashing heavily to the ground.
He was shocked and painful: "How could this be so! How could their ability be so unstoppable? They died? Didn't they practice such a scene at the beginning? The brother who was already in scattered was missing one more! He must kill Sun Ce to relieve his hatred!"
In the assassin's heart, the other person was just a ranger who was temporarily attracted with a lot of money. He had no friendship, so he naturally didn't bother to feel tired of this guy who was also shot into a hedgehog.
In a mixed sense of shock and anger, the assassin who had just landed on the ground roared: "Sun Bofu, die!"
Sun Ce was not surprised that the assassin could call his own name. He just didn't know who sent these people to assassinate them. Thinking about it, they would definitely not be the subordinates of Jiao Zhengqiang, otherwise they would not have used this blatantly to launch an attack at this time.
However, in Sun Ce's mind, Jiao Zhengqiang's death sentence was sentenced, so the reason was naturally to assassinate the Governor of Jiangnan.
Zuo Ci, who suppressed another assassin on the right, heard the assassin's roar and immediately looked at the assassin. Although the three of them were all wrapped in black clothes and covered their faces with their heads.
Zuo Ci still easily recognized the assassin in the lead and shouted in surprise: "Yu Ji! What do you want, such a bastard! The old Taoist shouldn't let you go at the beginning, just kill you under the stick on the spot!"
The assassin who rushed towards Sun Ce had a slightly stiffened body and he struggled and shouted: "Senior Brother,!"
But he didn't say anything after all. He just turned his head and looked at the incomplete Zuo Ci, and then waved his sword to rush towards Sun Ce again. They were already at such a level of life and death. Success or failure is just a strike in this way, what else can I say!
It can only be said that each of them is their own masters, and they can't help but let the kindness of their senior brothers be left alone. The original plan was very detailed, and the brothers and others were very sure to kill Sun Ce this time and give an explanation to their former partners.
But who knew that no matter how perfect the plan was, it would change. The two ambushers who came out of the family soldiers unexpectedly could not pass the blocking of the crossbow. In this way, the power of the assault against Sun Ce was immediately reduced by half.
Despite this, the assassin leader still has absolute confidence and kills Sun Ce in a one-on-one confrontation. He is just a warrior with good skills and some brute force. How could he escape from the sword with exquisite sword skills?
The assassin knew that time was tight, and immediately erupted his strongest attack move the next time. The blue and blue sword shadows in the sky almost completely blocked all the space in front of Sun Ce.
It seems that no matter which direction Sun Ce wants to avoid, he will be attacked by the sword with all his strength. Zuo Ci and Shi A, who also feel that Sun Ce is in danger, immediately stepped up the offensive in their hands. After trying to take down their opponents, they will turn back to support their lord.
As the ultimate close-range guard of the lord, if a few assassins can't handle it, I'm afraid that the two of them will be ashamed to death.
In just a moment, the sword light arrived in front of Sun Ce, and the tender body in Sun Ce's arms seemed to feel some danger. It suddenly became stiff. Her arms also turned into full strength to hug Sun Ce's thick waist.
Assassin Yu Ji stabbed with all his strength, and the first person to be attacked must be the beautiful girl in front of her body.
