Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 373 Ambush and Kill

The largest box of the Jiangnan Teahouse opposite Hangyuan was brightly lit. Although it was already daylight, the lights inside had not been extinguished, and it seemed that the lights had been on for a long time.

To be precise, it wasn't long before Ye Chen brought Yu Qingyan into the palace with the help of Lian Jicheng, and the box lit up.

The six gold-medal killers sent by Ye Chen were timely. Wei Xin, the left minister in the court of Wuyue Kingdom who had always advocated an alliance with the Southern Tang Dynasty against the Song Dynasty, was successfully assassinated by Bai Xiaomao and Yue Zhengye.The governor of Hangzhou, who controlled more than 2000 arresters and government soldiers, was about to order people to besiege Hangyuan in the name of assassinating the king of the Song Dynasty, but was also successfully assassinated by Ding Yingcai and Heiwa.The more than 2000 arresters and government soldiers were leaderless, and there was no movement.

Commander Gao Chengxiang of the Eight Capitals has not left the mansion and there has been no change, so with the cooperation of the intelligence department's spies, Zhang Xiong and Qi Bian who sneaked into Gao's mansion did not act.

But what Zhang Xiong and Qi Bian didn't know was that Hang Yuan had been surrounded by [-] troops.

Gao Chengxiang is No. 1 in the military of Wuyue Kingdom, but when he can't shrink back, the military generals below can use Gao Chengxiang's name to mobilize the army to do something.For example, General He Lei who was stationed in the North City and was in charge of the North City Wall and the four gates of the North City, large and small.

He Lei is not even in the top ten in terms of official positions in the Wuyue Kingdom's military, and he even has only 3000 troops under his command.But He Lei has a characteristic, he is very prestigious in his one-acre three-point land, and he is very popular with the soldiers under his command.So when he took the name of Gao Chengxiang and the imperial court and led his men and horses to besiege Hang Yuan, the three thousand soldiers under his command didn't think much at all and followed him.

However, four hours later, it was almost dawn, and they only broke through the periphery of Hangyuan.She didn't even see Princess Yongqing's face, and even the nervous Princess Yongqing woke up once and then fell asleep sweetly.The most important thing is that the main armed force of the Song Dynasty mission is still there.

The fighting power and fighting will shown by the three hundred Huaxia Guards and two hundred black cavalrymen surprised He Lei and his soldiers, not to mention that there were eight gold medal killers (the original four, plus the one who came back after killing everyone) The white kitten, Yue Zhengye, Heiwa, and Ding Yingcai) have always stayed by the princess's side and have not made a move yet.

However, in one night's attack, nearly a thousand of He Lei's 3000 troops died, but nearly half of the 60 Huaxia Guards, and even more than [-] of the [-] black cavalrymen died.

In the private room of the teahouse, He Lei looked worriedly at the deputy envoy of the Southern Tang Dynasty, Lu Jiang, who was seated opposite him, and said with a faint sigh: "My lord, what should I do now, nearly a thousand people under my command have been killed or injured, and the most important thing is that they are exhausted and their morale has plummeted." , but the Song people in Hangyuan are so difficult to deal with, especially the two hundred cavalry are simply not human. If the fight continues like this, even if Hangyuan can be defeated, the people inside will be killed. The 3000 men and horses under them will also be beaten. It's over."

Lu Jiang, the deputy envoy of the Southern Tang Mission, was in name the Southern Tang Privy Council's Order Jian to inspect along the river, but in fact he was the Viliu Bocha among the four mysterious Four Vajras of the Maitreya Sect.Hu Sanguang's people kept staring at the Courtyard, but they didn't expect that this person was no longer in the Southern Tang Mission, but came here.

Lu Jiang lowered her head slightly and remained silent for a long time before she spoke: "The deaths of Prime Minister Wei Xin and Governor of Hangzhou were as early as I expected, and I never thought of relying on them. It's just that I haven't seen Ye Chen appeared, I guess Ye Chen has already gone to the palace, Lin Chengfeng has not heard the news until now, and now it seems that something happened in the palace. However, if we can kill Princess Yongqing of Song Dynasty, our plan The task is considered to be half completed. Therefore, even if all the men and horses under your command are dead, you must attack the inner courtyard of Hangyuan and kill all the Song people."

He Lei couldn't help but have a stern face when he heard the words, and said resolutely: "In this case, my subordinates understand. Even if I die here in the end today, I will kill all those Song people. But Ye Chen is probably coming soon , His Holiness can make arrangements."

Lu Jiang's eyes were serious, and she said calmly and firmly: "Don't worry! I have already made arrangements on the way from the palace to Hangyuan. It's just a pity that the ancestor of the Wuyue royal family couldn't kill Ye Chen. .”

When the morning light first appeared, Ye Chen stopped on the street one mile away from Hangyuan with ten guards from the Palace of the Lord of Wuyue.

Because he suddenly felt that the street was too quiet. Although it was just dawn, some people should have woken up before the shops opened.But now, as far as Ye Chen could see, there wasn't a single shop open, and he couldn't even see a single person.

Such an abnormal phenomenon, obviously something happened.

Ye Chen moved his ears, lowered his eyelids, and stared at a tree on the street in front of him on the right. He had already discovered that there was an ambush here, and the people ambush were all real masters.Because at this moment, he felt a wind passing by himself, cutting off a branch of the tree, and immediately after that, strong sword intent, blade intent, and killing intent penetrated from all directions.

He didn't know whether these masters were members of Maitreya Sect or some forces from Wuyue Kingdom, but he could sense that there were at least five people coming, and they were all first-class masters.

Fortunately, thanks to Ye Chen's vigilance, he noticed the abnormality from the quietness of the street, coupled with his abnormal hearing.It made him stop at the last moment, just stepping on the outside of the murderous encirclement, not stepping in.

And he suddenly stopped, and looked around, as if he had discovered something, which made these people decide to make an early move.

A saber intent and two sharp sword intents attacked Ye Chen's body from three directions like a poisonous snake.

At the same time, two other people killed the ten guards behind Ye Chen.

The hairs all over Ye Chen's body stood up one by one.

He felt the danger, since the battle with Chen Jingyuan in the Southern Han Dynasty, this was the first time he really felt the danger.

The two sword intents and one blade intent, including the two who beheaded the guards behind them, are all first-class masters, and like Lian Jicheng, they are the kind of masters who are used to killing people.The two terrifying sword intents and the extremely cold blade intent faintly controlled several directions where Ye Chen might escape.

Although Ye Chen is much stronger than ordinary first-rate masters, but after all, he has not surpassed the realm of first-rate masters, so such an ambush really makes him a little frightened.Strong as Ye Chen, he also felt a little cold. Since he came to this era for more than a year, he has fought against countless masters.But it was the first time that he had dealt with five first-class masters at the same time.Although his strength has skyrocketed recently, he doesn't dare to expect that he can defeat five first-class experts at the same time.

That's right, five, because the ten guards behind him died very quickly.Half dead in the blink of an eye.

Ye Chen let out a clear whistle, and exhaled the turbid air in his body.The dantian was in motion, with a strong physical body and deep zhenqi in the body, while the two killers were still entangled by the guards, they kicked their feet, and with a bang, at the moment when several cracks appeared on the ground, they slammed diagonally to the rear right. !

There was a lot of dust, and with a bang, Ye Chen jumped up from the spot and disappeared, narrowly dodging three attacks.It turned into a crossbow arrow, or a cannonball, and shot towards the right rear.

He can't face the enemy head-on, otherwise he will be entangled, and in a one-to-five situation, he will undoubtedly die.He needed to distance himself from the five killers with his most powerful killing move.

It's a pity that Ye Chen didn't even notice the existence of the No.6 killer, so when he just bounced up, a sword energy shot from the window on the second floor of a restaurant on the right, and the tip of the sword shone coldly. Prick his weak eyelids.

Ye Chen had no way to dodge at this time, so he was forced to stab out with the sword that had already been unsheathed in his hand, but the opponent's long sword shook slightly, but did not touch him head-on. Ye Chen's fragile throat.Although such an attack is sharp and powerful, it can still be easily resisted with his current strength, but he may be entangled.

Ye Chen's body shook violently, using his perverted body, he forcibly flipped his body in mid-air, and forcibly escaped the damage caused by the sword intent, but at almost the same time.An ordinary stainless steel knife appeared mysteriously on his retreating route.

Because Ye Chen retreated so fast, the sword master who was closest to him couldn't stop him at all, but the sword was capable, and this ordinary stainless steel long knife was thrown out of his hand, and it flew right to Ye Chen's parabolic curve. The lower part of the trajectory just cut across Ye Chen's left calf.

Ye Chen's speed cannot be reduced.Once his speed slows down a bit.Then he will be surrounded by these six first-class masters, and will never get a single chance to break through.

However, the other party obviously came prepared, and the sword and saber skills of the incoming man were really amazing.In such a high-speed battle situation.The knife that came out of his hand.It can be so accurate.It seems that he cut his calf so fiercely.It's like Ye Chen very stupidly bumped into the opponent's blade with his own calf.

Ye Chen didn't slow down, nor could he.To everyone's surprise.His body twisted forcefully again in mid-air.It's just that the angle of twist is too small.It seemed that he couldn't affect anything at all, but he avoided the tragedy of his calf being tangentially cut. In a blink of an eye, his calf hit the sharp knife hard!

When there was a crisp sound, no one could describe their emotions when they saw this scene.Because although Ye Chen's leg was bleeding, it was not broken!

Instead, it was the unpredictable knife blocking the way, which seemed to be hit by a heavy hammer, and fell to the ground slumped, rolling unstoppably.

And Ye Chen suffered a heavy blow to his calf, and his whole body rolled in the air, and instead faced the big tree next to him head-on, that big tree was originally the only gap Ye Chen was optimistic about to escape now. .

This tree is an old banyan tree, there are not many green leaves on the tree, just old branches.The beard is stretched, twisted and trembling.
