Chapter 139 The Dressed Messenger

The remaining people were driven forward bravely by a few Han people from behind.

"Where are you thieves from? You are so brave... How dare you attack the Han princes halfway..."

"Oh……"

"Zhang Yue, son... this time, I have no choice but to offend you. Who can tell you that you are ignorant of current affairs!"

Zhang Yue was shocked, these people were really coming for him.

"Who wants my life, the Huns? Qinghe Zhang? Or the powerful Guandong people?"

Although he was frightened, he was not panicked. Although the enemy had many troops, they were just a mob.

This can be seen from the enemy's organization, coordination, and equipment during the attack.

Equipment can deceive people, but people's habits are hard to change.

From the pace of these people's impact, it can be seen that except for a few people, the others have not been trained at all.

Although we are now fighting on foot, the power of the bows and crossbows has been greatly reduced due to the weather.

But he believed that even with the crudest weapons, his one hundred guards could easily defeat the enemy.

Therefore, he was not worried about his own safety at all, but was more interested in the person who planned the attack.

This attack was too hasty and had no chance of success. It was more like killing someone with a borrowed knife.

…

In Bowang Garden, Zheng Hui, the prince's family magistrate, was having a secret conversation with Li Yuan, the official of the East Palace.

"Have everything been arranged?" Zheng Hui asked seriously.

"Put it down, Mr. Zheng, I have already arranged everything!" Li Yuan showed a confident expression on his face.

Zheng Hui frowned and clasped his fingers together inadvertently.

"Who arranged it?"

Li Yuandao, "Yangling Hero Zhu Anshi!"

Zheng Hui thought for a moment and soon knew who it was, "But the knight who works for Gongsun Jingsheng?"

Li Yuandao, "Exactly!"

Zheng Huidao, "Is this person reliable?"

Li Yuan said confidently, "This person has always been famous for his credibility, so there should be no problem!"

Zheng Hui frowned when he heard this, "This matter is not trivial. You must not be careless. If someone discovers it, it may affect the prince..."

"After doing this, it's best to send someone to kill this person..."

Li Yuan looked troubled at this moment, "Mr. Zheng, that's no need. This Zhu Anshi..."

Zheng Hui snorted coldly, "It concerns the prince, how can we be careless..."

"This!" Li Yuan didn't know how to answer for a moment!

Zheng Hui knew there was something wrong with this as soon as he saw Li Yuan's expression.

But he didn't say anything else, he just waved his hand and asked Li Yuan to leave.

After Li Yuan left, he asked someone to get pen and ink, but he wrote a letter instead.

"Send this letter to Handan as soon as possible..."

…

"Kill"

On the other side, Zhang Yue was commanding his personal guards to fight against the robbers.

"shoot!"

Following Zhang Yue's order, the crossbowmen in the back row fired the arrows in their hands neatly.

"Boohoo!"

Powerful arrows flew towards the attacking gangsters.

Although the accuracy of the crossbow has been affected to a certain extent due to weather conditions.

But because the gangsters were too dense, it did not actually affect the performance of the crossbows.

"Ahhhh..."

Screams continued to sound, and in just a short distance, at least thirteen or four gangsters were killed by crossbow arrows.

There were no less than twenty people injured. If it weren't for the generous rewards, most of the gangsters would have retreated by now.

"Kill!"

After paying the price of nearly forty casualties, the gangsters finally reached the team.

Just when the gangsters thought they could use their numerical advantage to kill the enemies in front of them.

The guards changed their formations under Zhang Yue's command.

"Two or three sons, flat spear, stab!"

"Puff...Puff..."

"Ah...ah..."

As soon as the two sides came into contact, the bandits suffered heavy casualties.

Facing the battle formation, these gangsters who only knew how to fight were unable to display their proud martial arts.

Facing the gun array of the guards, the gangsters suddenly didn't know what to do.

"Light soldiers dancing!"

Zhang Yue would not give the enemy time or opportunity to think on the battlefield.

He gave the order, and the soldiers equipped with swords and shields had already rushed out.

"Ah...ah..."

The gangsters in the front row were killed one by one.

"It's bitter!"

Aniu Wu Lai, who was leading the charge, groaned secretly in his heart.

I originally thought that the opponent's combat power would be greatly reduced if he dismounted and fought, but I didn't expect that he would still be so difficult to deal with.

This group of people is much more vicious than what the middle-aged scribe said.

Who is this Marquis Yunyang and how could he have such a powerful private soldier?

At this moment, he suddenly had doubts in his heart.

It's a pity that it's hard to get off the tiger now.

In order for the people in the clan not to starve, this time the Han named "Yunyang Hou" must be killed even if all the people are killed.

"Warriors, think about our tribe. As long as we kill these people, our tribe will no longer starve. Kill!"

Under the encouragement of Na A Niu Wu Lai, the Qiang bandits who were already fearful plucked up their courage again.

One by one, they rushed towards the Han army's circular formation without fear of death.

"clang"

With the help of his companions, a gangster finally stabbed a soldier with his sword.

Just as his face showed joy, he saw the soldier pull out a ring-head knife with his other hand.

He reflexively wanted to avoid, but was blocked by his accomplices.

In the end, he only saw a flash of white light, and then fell into boundless darkness.

The other gangsters next to him saw it more clearly.

Although the strong man stabbed the enemy, underneath the enemy's robe was actually a piece of iron armor.

The strong man's bronze sword could not penetrate the enemy's armor.

The fighting between the two sides became increasingly fierce.

The gangsters felt more and more that something was wrong. Not only did the people in front of them possess the Han Army's standard rhubarb crossbows, but underneath their leather robes they all had Han Army's standard armor.

The Han Dynasty did not strictly manage weapons. No, it should be said that all Han people were encouraged to possess weapons.

But it does not include crossbows and armor. The powerful may also be able to obtain some crossbows through various relationships.

But no one dared to touch armor randomly. Even the princes of the Han Dynasty could not own so many armors on weekdays.
