Chapter 91 Chapter Three

After Tian Dan entered the dormitory, accompanied by the two brothers Liu Zhongxia and Liu Zhongshi, he went straight to the side of the couch and said cordially: "Brother Dong, how is your body?" Xiang Shaolong saw that behind Zhuo Li's bed with his hands behind his back, there was an aura of majesty in the world, and he was even more vigilant, not daring to say anything wrong, and nodded his head to salute, "Because of the absurd life recently, excessive drinking , I was soaked in the river for a while, and then I was invaded by the cold. Oh! Please sit down, Prime Minister Tian!"

Tian Dan shook his head with a smile and said, "Many times I like to stand up and talk. Hey! Seeing Brother Dong's bright eyes, how can he be a person who is too drunk? It's just that he used too much strength for a while, so he is prone to dampness and cold!" " Xiang Shaolong knew that it was difficult to lie in front of this person, so he smiled wryly and said: "It seems so!" Tian Dan stared at him for a while, then said calmly: "Brother Dong's subordinates, were they trained by Brother Dong?" When he said this, Xiang Shaolong immediately knew that when he forcibly broke into the city gate to force King Xiaocheng to express his opinion that day, this person must have been watching from the sidelines. His heart was stunned, knowing that he was suspicious, but he said nonchalantly: "I want to raise horses." First of all, we must prevent others from stealing horses, there are many barbarians in the south, so I train them every day to be prepared."

Tian Dan pondered for a while, nodded and said: "If Brother Dong can train my generals in Daqi to become elites who are as brave as Brother Dong's sons and daughters who are not afraid of death, what fear is there for the Tiger and Wolf Qin?" Xiang Shaolong felt relieved, it turned out that Tian Dan liked this strength of his and secretly screamed loudly.His greatest strength, Xiang Shaolong, is to bring the special forces to this Warring States era.And this advantage was immediately caught by Tian Dan. After the two looked at each other for a moment, Xiang Shaolong closed his eyes, opened them after a while, looked at Tian Dan who was staring at him, and said: "I understand, Xiang Tian, ​​please give me some time Dong."

Tian Dan didn't expect him to be so frank and straightforward, he felt stunned, and immediately said happily: "I understand that Brother Dong is a loyal person, otherwise he wouldn't have saved his life to save Lord Longyang. Whoever was in that situation would just will escape on its own." Xiang Shaolong pretended to frowned because of the pain caused by the wound, shook his head and said, "At that time, I never thought about other things, only knowing that we are in the same boat and coping with the crisis." Tian Dan's eyes flashed, and he said in a deep voice: "I heard from Lord Longyang that Brother Dong had already realized it at that time. I don't know why Brother Dong has such foresight?"

Xiang Shaolong felt uncomfortable with his gaze and question, and wished he could leave quickly, pretending to be tired, and said indifferently: "Maybe it's because I got along with horses a lot, and I got a little bit of their keen sense, in fact, every day Whenever there is a catastrophe coming, or even a sudden change in the weather, from birds and beasts to snakes, insects and ants, they all behave strangely." After all, Xiang Shaolong was not a prisoner, so he couldn't persevere and ask questions endlessly. Tian Dan sighed: "Brother Dong is indeed an extraordinary person. Somehow, the main emissary of this sneak attack had some bad luck to meet Brother Dong, and his success fell short. With Brother Dong being such a talented person, King Kaolie of Chu might see His eyes were lost, but how could Chunshen Lord Huang Xie let you go lightly?" Although he seemed to be flattering Xiang Shaolong, but in fact he stepped forward step by step, vowing to find out the details of Xiang Shaolong.

Xiang Shaolong murmured inwardly that it was not good, this person was extremely intelligent, if he was not careful, it would be over if he grabbed his tail.With a wry smile, he said, "Mr. Chunshen probably can't even remember what I look like, why should I let it go? Dong has lost his heart to Chu people, and he doesn't want to think about them anymore." This time it was Tian Dan's turn to cry out secretly, and Xiang Shaolong's "gossip" style of answer made him feel that this person was unpredictable and elusive.Nodding his head, he said, "Chu people are short-sighted. They only want the comfort in front of them, and they don't correct their mistakes. It's really not worth mentioning. But if Chu State falls into Li Yuan's control, what kind of situation does Brother Dong think will happen?"

Xiang Shaolong snorted coldly, and said, "Li Yuan is a man who is unfeeling and ungrateful, narrow-minded, indulging in debauchery, and relying on nepotism, what great things can he do?" Tian Dan's eyes shot out like lightning, fixed on his face, he laughed dumbly and said: "Brother Dong has indeed seen people, how can Tian believe that you are just a person who is willing to raise horses!" Xiang Shaolong's entire spine felt cold, he coughed dryly and said, "President Tian praised Dong so much." Tian Dan said solemnly: "Brother Dong, if you have the ambition to manage the world, you should not stay in the dying place of Zhao State. You should be a young man whose ambition is thousands of miles away. Brother Dong is a smart man. Ming Tian's meaning."

Xiang Shaolong knew that he was still just trying to solicit himself, so he felt relieved, slumped against the pillow, sighed, but didn't speak. Although Tian Dan was an eloquent man, he had nothing to do with him, it was his turn to smile wryly and said, "Brother Dong, what are you hiding?" Xiang Shaolong pretended to work hard and barely sat up a little higher, holding his forehead next to the couch and muttering, "Isn't it because of my father's death that I asked me to go back to Zhao to set up a ranch. Life and death are fate, and I don't take much care of many things. In fact, it’s just that I fell in love with Tian Xiang at first sight, and I was grateful for the kindness of Tian Xiang’s acquaintance, so I thought of thinking about it again, and hope Tian Xiang can understand my difficulties.”

If he confessed like this, Tian Dan realized that it would be difficult to force him to express his opinion immediately. After taking a deep breath, Qi Feng pointed out: "The sneak attacker must have nothing to do with Xiang Shaolong!" Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, pretended to be stupid and said, "What is Xiang Xiang's insight?" Tian Dan took a step forward, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "I hope that one day Brother Dong will set foot in the Qi State, and Tian will treat Mr. as a guest, and have a good rest! When Brother Dong recovers in two days, I will I hope to go to Brother Dong’s ranch for a while.”

He avoided answering Xiang Shaolong's question and just left.Xiang Shaolong was so tired that he was full of doubts, wondering if this gentleman had any advanced plans. ◇◇◇◇◇◇ During dinner, everyone was preoccupied by the impending assassination, and the atmosphere was not lively. After Zhao Zhi ate some casually, he put down his chopsticks and watched Xiang Shaolong eat happily. Jing Jun was the only one who looked particularly excited, teasing Zhao Zhi: "Sister Zhi! How can you get strength if you don't eat enough?" Zhao Zhi said in a low voice, "Isn't he hungry?"

Shanrou scolded in a low voice: "It's really useless, it's not like someone came to assassinate you, you look restless!" Tian Zhen and Tian Feng came over to add wine for everyone at this time, Wu Zhuo stopped him and said: "Drinking is not suitable tonight!" Turning to Xiang Shaolong with a smile: "Mr. Longyang sent someone to send two large jugs of wine, one is medicinal wine, One is to replenish the wine, ha! I think the third brother is in trouble today." Xiang Shaolong was overwhelmed by the gratitude and concern of Mr. Longyang, and he smiled wryly and was speechless. Shanrou snorted coldly: "Isn't letting him slaughtered by someone else be a one-and-done thing, but you have to risk your life to save him, causing you a whole lot of trouble." Zhao Zhi panicked and said, "Eldest sister!" Shan Rou glared at her and said, "You only know how to be a respondent." Xiang Shaolong and Wu Jing looked at each other and smiled wryly. Shan Rou patted her stomach, stretched her waist, and said in a rough voice: "Don't miss me in tonight's action, now Mrs. Ben should go to sleep first, and prepare a pair of those clothes for me." Flying wall climbing stuff, I want the best." While everyone was stunned, he just did what he said and went back to his room to sleep.Sister Tian hurriedly assigned one person to serve her. Zhao Zhi tremblingly said to everyone: "My lords have a lot, don't blame Sister Rou, she..." Xiang Shaolong smiled and said, "Don't worry, no one will really blame her." Wu Zhuo nodded and said: "As expected of a master who is used to assassination, she knows how to rest and relax as much as possible before taking action, so we should learn from her." At this time, Wu Guo led Pu Bu's partner Liu Chao to arrive. Everyone who was waiting for the news was overjoyed and asked him to sit down. After briefly expressing his heartfelt parting, Liu Chao said: "After receiving Pu Bu's notice, I immediately contacted the most reliable brothers who are currently working in Lecheng Mansion. After a lot of work, I finally got some clues." Everyone was overjoyed to listen. Liu Chao said: "Le Cheng is a very cautious person, and he does all kinds of bad things. He is afraid that people will risk his life for revenge, so he acts in secret, and there are a large number of experts guarding him when he goes in and out. Up to now, none of our brothers can get into his inner circle. circle." Jing Jun said in astonishment: "Didn't you say that you have some eyebrows?" Liu Chao said: "That's the usual situation, but the situation in Handan City has been tense these two days, Le Cheng has dispatched a large number of family generals from the mansion to join his personal guards, so two of our brothers have mixed in, otherwise there is really no You have come to see Master Xiang." Xiang Shaolong frowned and said: "He seems to be very afraid that I will deal with him!" Liu Chao said in amazement: "Master Xiang has a deep hatred with him, so naturally he will die!" This time it was Xiang Shaolong's turn to wonder: "What is the direct enmity between him and me?" Liu Chao was stunned and said, "What? Master Xiang didn't know that Shu'er was raped to death by him and Zhao Mu? He still talked about it afterwards, claiming that he had played with Master Xiang's woman wantonly." Xiang Shaolong was shocked and said, "What?" Wu Zhuo was afraid that he would be too excited, so he asked Liu Chao after a few words of comfort, "Where is Le Cheng going tonight?" Liu Chao said: "For the sake of city defense these days, he has spent most of his time in the command and guard post next to the east gate, rarely going home. In fact, he wished he could not go back to the General's Mansion." Xiang Shaolong suppressed the grief and indignation in his heart, but when he thought of Shu'er's tragic death, his blood surged up again, and he said in a deep voice, "What is he afraid of?" Liu Chao said: "Mrs. Le is the sister of the king who passed the exam, and Zhao Ya's sister. She is very powerful. Le Cheng is a little afraid of her, and he has to hide it from her when he is fooling around outside." Zhao Zhi worriedly said: "If he is still in the command post tonight, how can we have a chance?" Liu Chao said: "He also has three other residences where he can place newly acquired women and concubines given to him by others. This man is cruel and lustful, and he loves lewd beauties the most. There are countless women he has crippled or died of. .Recently, a minister in Handan offended King Xiaocheng, and Le Cheng was in charge of confiscating his family. He left behind two concubines for his own use. He hasn't had time to do such an outrageous thing these two days, so we estimate He will definitely not be able to resist sneaking away to show off his big desires in the past two nights." Xiang Shaolong's heart came to a sudden, and only now did he understand the reason why Zhu Ji hated Le Cheng, but now even without Zhu Ji's order, he would never let Le Cheng go. Wu Zhuo then asked about everything about Le Cheng, including the location of the Zangjiao Biefu, the situation of Le Cheng's personal guards, and other relevant details, and Liu Chao answered them in detail.After Wu Zhuo finished asking, he praised Liu Chao to Xiang Shaolong, "Brother Liu is indeed amazing, obviously he has been working hard all the time." Liu Chao said modestly: "Since the trip to Daliang, none of our brothers are willing to sacrifice their lives for Lord Xiang. In our eyes, no one among the heroes in the world can match Lord Xiang." Xiang Shaolong regained his composure, nodded and said: "After this incident, you can follow me back to Xianyang! We will share the blessings in the future, so I won't say any more polite words." Liu Chao was overjoyed and thanked. Xiang Shaolong personally sent him out, and told him to order his brothers who were in Le Cheng's personal guards to find an excuse not to accompany him tonight before returning to the inner house. Wu Zhuo waited to prepare for tonight's action, leaving only Zhao Zhi and the beautiful twin sisters from Yue. Xiang Shaolong regained his composure, and thought of Shu'er, who had a bad fate, his heart fell like lead, and he felt very uncomfortable. After returning to Handan, he has been in contact with Le Passenger's kind and friendly side. Although he knows it is false, but there is no direct hatred. Of course it has changed now, and he can't wait to tear this traitor into pieces.The death of such a person is actually beneficial and harmless to mankind. What Xiang Shaolong dislikes most about this era is the attitude of treating women as playthings and slaves.Powerful people such as Zhao Ya, etc., in the final analysis, still rely on men to survive. People's rights should come from relatively objective and fair legal guarantees. Thinking of this, I can't help but think of Li Si and Han Feizi of the Legalists, whether I can try to influence them so that the rule of law can replace the Confucianism who specializes in the rule of men. But if you think about it carefully, as long as the monarchy is supreme for a day, the real rule of law is always a mirror image, which is unreal. At this moment, Zhao Zhi came up to him and took his arm and said, "Master Dong! Your face is so ugly now, it really makes people worry." Xiang Shaolong was stunned in his heart, in his state, he was really not suitable for the task of assassination, but he couldn't manage the emotional agitation caused by Shu'er. Putting his arm around Zhao Zhi's waist, he said softly, "Zhi Zhi will stay here tonight, and wait for me to come back." Zhao Zhi was startled and said: "Ah! No! You want to be by your side, don't underestimate his sword skills, okay?" Xiang Shaolong moved his hand down, patted her pink butt twice vigorously, and said with a serious face: "Your martial arts and swordsmanship are very good, but you have never tried to kill, that is another matter entirely, obediently Listen to me, understand?" Zhao Zhi thought of killing someone, shivered, bowed his head and was speechless. Xiang Shaolong suddenly thought of the wonderful way to relax, leaned into her small ear and said, "Waiting for you to wait for me in the room, you are not allowed to have half a piece of clothing on you, and I will have fun with you as soon as I come in, did you hear me?" Zhao Zhi was ashamed and happy at the same time, exclaiming "嘤叮" coquettishly, got out of his arms, didn't dare to look at him, and ran into the room. The Tian sisters stared blankly at them, seeming to be confused. Xiang Shaolong called the two girls forward, hugged each other tightly, kissed and touched: "Tomorrow night it's your turn!" ◇◇◇◇◇◇ It's time for the second watch. The gate of the command post in the east of the city opened, and a team of about 200 knights galloped out, formed a formation, drove up the long street, then turned left and turned into the expressway near the city wall, and patrolled along the city.Except for the four lanterns at the head and tail for lighting, the middle part of the team was submerged in darkness, making it hard to see clearly. Two rows of forty knights each formed a long line, walking one by one on the outside, protecting the five groups of knights walking in the middle like two movable walls. Everyone held a long shield and turned outward, even if someone If you shoot arrows at the eaves or by the side of the road, you can shoot them all at once, let alone the cavalry in the middle. The group of knights in the middle has a large number of knights, there are more than 50 people, and the outsiders are all holding high shields, which shows that there are important people in this group.The other four groups of about 20 people each carry spears, which can be used for both sprinting and throwing. Under the gust of autumn wind, there was even more awe-inspiring aura, and the sound of hooves shattered the tranquility of the night. There are more than 30 steps between the groups. Even if there is an ambush, it will be difficult to completely surround them, unless the enemy's strength is ten times that of theirs.After walking for half a mile, the people and horses left the fast track of carriages and horses leaning against the city wall, turned right and went back to the city. The sky is thick with clouds, and the stars and the moon are not visible. The elite team members who had been following them hurriedly climbed to a high place, and used the firelight to send a signal to the nearest teammates to indicate the location of the Le Cheng team in a place that was difficult for the enemy to see. Xiang Shaolong and the others who stayed outside Lecheng Befu quickly judged the route Lecheng came from and made arrangements. Xiang Shaolong and others crouched on the eaves, their heads and faces were tightly wrapped in black cloth, only a pair of eyes were exposed, like a group of ghosts that only come out in the dark.When he saw the dim light of the lantern appearing in the distance of the long street, the heart that raised his throat was relieved. If Le Cheng did not come to Beppu from this direction, the action tonight would have to be abandoned. With the sound of hooves ticking, the prey moves from far to near. Wu Zhuo on the left said: "Although Le Cheng is licentious and evil, he is worthy of being a famous general of Zhao State. Just by looking at this army formation, you can tell that he has real knowledge." Shan Rou on the right whispered: "Le Cheng is mine, I want to cut off his dog's head with my own hands." Xiang Shaolong purposely bumped into her, nibbled her earballs, and then whispered: "This is a city's hunting ground, whoever has the greatest ability will have the biggest catch." Shan Rouxiu's eyes flashed coldly, she turned her head away to look at him with disdain, but she didn't move her delicate body away. Xiang Shaolong felt ecstasy and excitement. At this time, the vanguard with lanterns had come to the place where they were hiding and walked over.The enemy ran across the long street in groups, and the atmosphere became more and more tense. Xiang Shaolong knew it was time, so he lightly bumped Wu Zhuo, at this time, the group with the most knights including Le Cheng had just arrived at the middle of the street.Wu Zhuo let out a shriek, breaking the regular sound of horseshoes. The enemies were all shocked and looked to both sides. The sound of "swish" continued, and the elite regiment members who were lying on the eaves on both sides fired all their crossbows and arrows, and took horses instead of people. The miserable hiss of war horses and the angry shouts of people shook the sky.The lantern fell to the ground, the horses jumped in surprise in the dark, and the situation was chaotic.However, the entire formation can still be kept roughly intact, which shows that Zhao Jun is indeed a well-trained elite soldier. Wu Zhuo knew it was time, and gave the secret signal to attack again.Xiang Shaolong still hadn't moved, Shanrou had jumped out of the eaves like a leopard, first fell a few feet, then flew out of the long rope in the air, clasped the climbing tools around his waist, and came to the sky above the street in the dark like a heavenly soldier . At the same time, more than a dozen burning fireballs were thrown from both sides, vaguely showing the enemy's position, but at this moment the enemy still thought that the attackers were attacking from both sides, unaware that a large group of evil stars had already arrived above their heads. The throwing knives thrown by this group of heavenly soldiers were impeccable in their aim and strength. When the enemy was alarmed, at least half of them fell from the knives and fell off their horses.The horse that lost its owner ran amok and became a mess. Le Cheng's group was the target of public criticism, and suffered the heaviest injuries. More than 50 people were knocked down, and nearly 20 people were knocked down, and the rest fell off their horses one after another. Most of the people who were hit by the knife were wounded on the face or the vital points of the chest. In an instant, the quiet long street turned into a Shura hell with corpses lying on the ground. Xiang Shaolong and others borrowed the waist rope to fall from the sky.Before Xiang Shaolong's feet touched the ground, he stretched out left and right, and the two enemies who hadn't had time to get off the horse were hit in the face and fell off the horse.When he landed on the ground, the blood came out of the scabbard, and two of the three enemies charged, the other was stabbed by Shanrou from behind, and fell towards Xiang Shaolong screaming. Xiang Shaolong dodges and glances around, and sees in the burning red light on the ground, more than a dozen personal guards are protecting Le Cheng whose expression is still calm, retreating to the side alley. The long street shouted to kill the sky, and the elite soldiers rushed out from both sides, armed with huge axes, chasing and killing the defeated enemies, leaving Le Cheng's group isolated and helpless. Xiang Shaolong exchanged glances with Wu Zhuo, and led four of his men to slaughter them.Shan Rou is like a female tiger, after knocking them over, she throws a throwing knife, the second strikes first, she is ahead of Xiang Wu and shoots one of them into the throat, she is worthy of a first-rate female assassin. Le Cheng shouted: "Go!" Immediately, five people rushed forward to meet Xiang Wu and the others, but Xiang Wu himself continued to retreat. Xiang Shaolong shouted loudly: "Le Cheng traitor, let me, Xiang Shaolong, take your dog's life." Le Cheng had retreated to the entrance of the alley at this time, he was determined, and said with a grinning grin: "Come here if you have the ability!" Shan Rou passed by Xiang Shaolong's side, her sword glowed sharply, and she took the first step to meet the enemy.Xiang Wu and the others were afraid that she might make a mistake, so they hurriedly rushed forward to make a move.For a moment, there was a sword, a sword, and a murderous aura. These people are all the best swordsmen around Le Cheng, and they can barely block them.When Le Cheng was about to turn around and flee into the side alley, the people who were protecting him fell to the ground with arrows. Jing Jun led several people to jump down, forcing Le Cheng and others back to the street in a hurry. The people in front couldn't hold on at this time, and they all fell to the ground spattered with blood. Le Cheng shouted helplessly: "Follow me!" The remaining six people followed him and ran towards Xiang Shaolong and the others. Le Cheng sternly scolded, and slashed out with a swipe of the sword, which was faster than lightning, and exchanged three swords with Xiang Shaolong in the blink of an eye.His arm strength was not as strong as Xiang Shaolong's, he couldn't resist the last sword strike, he was so shocked that he took three steps back.At this time, Jing Jun cleared away the enemies blocking the way, he did a somersault, kicked up his flying feet before landing, in no particular order, "bang!" and propped himself up on Le Cheng's vest.Le Cheng staggered forward, and his helmet fell to the ground. With a flash of sword light, Shan Rou, who had just cut an enemy in the waist, jumped out of nowhere, and jumped in front of Xiang Shaolong. Amidst the scolding sound, Le Cheng immediately fell to the ground with his head in a different place, and died tragically on the spot. Wu Zhuo held his head and issued an order to retreat. The long ropes that crossed the sky above the long street were also pulled back without leaving any traces. The whole operation, without the effort of half a cup of hot tea, fully embodies the high-efficiency spirit and explosive attack power of the special forces. In the raging flames, the ground was full of corpses and Zhao Bing moaning in a pool of blood.
