The people of Xiliang suffered a big loss. They thought they were doing their underground work rigorously enough, but they were still targeted. The other party sent more than forty masters, eight of whom were top-notch swordsmen, and the rest were also capable.
warrior.
The men of Xiliang Military Command come from a wide range of sources. Being able to fight is not the most important thing. Flexibility and adaptability are the main criteria for recruitment. When performing tasks in the capital city of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the weapons they carry do not dare to be too showy. They are all local blacksmiths.
Ordinary swords purchased in the shop and occasionally a few muskets are not enough.
Unexpectedly, they ran into a tough fight. The opponent's group of people were quite good at fighting and would not let go. They assigned three masters to deal with Yuan Feng. The rest of them swooped over with swords more than five feet long. The Military Command Division
The heroes were brutally killed, five of them died in just one stick of incense, and Luo Tianqiang was also snatched away.
Luo Tianqiang fell into his hands for so many days without being killed, and he was killed within a second of falling into the hands of this group of people, which shows that these people are ruthless enough. Yuan Feng was dealing with three masters while shouting to Ye Tang
Said: "Let's go quickly!"
The little ones panicked and ran away, while the swordsmen rushed to catch up. The sound of rapid footsteps and the sound of sharp blades resounded in the silent streets. Every household closed their doors tightly, and no one dared to show their head to watch the fun.
Although Yuan Feng's martial arts skills are high, he hasn't fought with anyone for a long time. At first, he was a little uncomfortable facing the masters of the martial arts. The three long swords forced him to panic. Fortunately, he had good fighting skills and was able to force the three of them back. Let's look at it again.
The little ones had already run far away, so he feinted with his knife and ran away like flying.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been so embarrassed. This time I was chased so miserably by hundreds of Turkic wolf riders in Qinghai. At that time, I had no way to escape but to fight for my life. It’s not to that extent now, so of course I’m going to do it.
The above calculation.
In the front, Ye Tang was running wildly with seven or eight people, behind was Yuan Feng, who was chasing after them, and behind them was a large group of burly men in powerful attire and holding long knives in both hands, chasing after them with all their might, their uniform leather soap-soled boots knocking on the ground.
A rapid sound like drum beats.
It was such a run that my lungs were about to bleed. It happened that the road forked in front. I don’t know where to go to the left, but to the right was the direction of Guanyi. Without thinking, everyone turned right and just turned the corner.
Ye Tang, who was running in front, had his scalp exploded!
There were more than twenty people squatting in front, divided into three rows. The front row was lying down, the middle row was kneeling, and the back row was standing. They were holding muskets steadily in their hands, with dark muzzles and burning match ropes. Ye Tang thought to himself:
Finished replying.
Suddenly a thunderous cry sounded in my ears: "Get down!"
The people in the Military Command Department all had military backgrounds and had keen conditioned reflexes for passwords. They all fell down on the spot. At this time, the pursuers from behind also arrived. They were stunned when they saw so many gun muzzles. Before they could react, they all fell down.
The flames burst into flames, and the few people running at the front were all sprayed to the ground.
The bell-mouthed musket fire at close range was a covering of fire damage. The pursuers with long knives did not expect that the opponent had such a hand at all. It was too late to turn around and run away. They could only bite the bullet and attack. How could they know that others were playing tricks?
It was a three-stage attack, with more than 20 muskets taking turns to fire, and iron sand was sprayed out as if it was free of charge. Even a tough man couldn't stand this. Seeing the change in the situation, the commander behind shouted, "This group of people are embarrassed."
The ground was full of corpses and they were quickly evacuated.
Ye Tang got up from the ground, still breathing heavily, and looked at the musketeer captain Wu Dongqing who came for reinforcements and said: "Why are you here so late? I almost had all my brothers make dumplings."
Wu Dongqing said: "I came here as soon as I received the letter. Where is my lord?"
Yuan Feng also got up from the ground, shook off the dust and debris on his body and said, "I'm fine. It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. Get out quickly."
The personnel evacuated quickly, but Ye Tang did not forget to search the enemy's corpse and picked up a few things that could be used to find clues.
…
After confirming that no one was following them, the group of people withdrew to another stronghold. The capital was larger than Chang'an, and the population was very mobile. Thousands of people bought, sold, and rented houses every day. They wanted to follow this clue to find some people, but they still couldn't.
Too realistic.
A long knife is placed on the table. The blade is five feet long and the handle is one foot and five inches long. The handle is wrapped with a red handle rope. The blade is as smooth as a mirror and the edge is sharp. It is different from the steel-embedded method of making swords in the Central Plains.
It is made of steel. The length of the entire knife is about the same as that of a person of average height. It requires both hands to hold and swing it.
"This is not a Zhongyuan sword." Yuan Feng rubbed the long sword and made a conclusion.
"This knife is too cruel. It is one inch longer and one inch stronger, and the blade is so sharp that our swords can't stop it at all. With one slash, the man and his weapon were cut into two pieces." Ye Tang looked a little sad. This time the military commander
Si suffered heavy losses, seven people died, and they were all subordinates who had been with him for many years. It was really aggrieved to be killed without any explanation by a group of people who didn't know the details.
"Have you found out who these swordsmen are?"
Ye Tang shook his head: "They don't carry anything identifying themselves, and they don't have tattoos. However, their clothes are uniform, and even their boots are the same. This may be a clue."
"Then let's investigate again. We can't let this loss go in vain. No matter who did it, we must recover this place." Yuan Baobo said expressionlessly.

The other party came for Luo Tianqiang, and they must not be from the East Palace. According to Luo Tianqiang, there were people from the Second Prince and the Third Prince's faction who were against the East Palace. Maybe they were responsible for this matter. The situation in Beijing, Thousand Heads
Wan Xu, as a newcomer to the Xiliang Military Command, it is a bit difficult to find the answer from this mess of clues. After all, the Military Command is just an underground organization. It cannot be brought to the forefront and cannot be searched openly. Maybe it will be searched by others.
The oriole is behind.
No matter how complicated it is, there is only one center, and that is to seize the legitimate son. Although the emperor is still in his prime, that day will always come. The four princes of the emperor are all among the best, and there are still great variables. As a local governor and even the court
Minister, it is impossible to stay out of the matter. You must choose a prince to bet on. If you bet on the right one, you will be able to follow the dragon. If you bet on the wrong one, your wealth and life will not be saved.
Fan Liangchen, the governor of Shaanxi and Gansu, is a newly rising political star. He has never even entered the capital and has never met any princes. However, the geographical advantage determines his importance. The northwest is currently the country's largest imported war horse.
As an important channel, seizing Fan Liangchen is equivalent to seizing Ma Zheng's throat. No prince will take him lightly.
Framing Fan Liangchen's subordinates to assassinate the prince is not a clever move. It can only push Fan Liangchen, who has not yet taken sides, into the arms of the enemy. Even if the prince is stupid, there are always some smart advisers around him. How could he do this?
Wrong, Yuan Feng couldn't figure it out.
Luo Tianqiang! Luo Tianqiang may not be from Zhan Shifu at all. He never saw Yuan Feng after he was knocked unconscious. He opened his mouth and asked whether you are from the second prince or the third prince. This is a trick in itself. Of course, Ye Tang did not
He did not answer him directly, but he also fell into the trap and indirectly admitted that he was a certain party in this political competition.
The forces of several princes were fighting each other in the dark. They may not have known about the existence of the Military Command Division, but they regarded them as the newly expanded force of the enemy. The Military Command Division confusedly joined the fight for the heir, and lost seven lives in vain.
, what an injustice!
***, forget it, anyway, the more muddled the waters of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty are, the better. I can’t let seven people die in vain. No matter which prince’s subordinate they are, I will accompany you in this secret war.
Not long after, Ye Tang, who had gone out to inquire about the news, came back. He took the cloth torn from the swordsman's body and asked several silk and satin shops. The conclusion was that this was a tribute satin from the south of the Yangtze River. Ordinary people could not afford it or buy it.
, only those in the imperial palace or the families of high-ranking officials can afford it.
"Could it be that this is the material the emperor wears?" Yuan Feng asked suspiciously.
"That's not true. The royal family doesn't use such low-end materials. Only the eunuchs and guards use them. And then the emperor uses them to reward people. They reward hundreds of pieces of silk and satin, and that's what they are."
Yuan Feng nodded, thinking about it.
"Where's the knife?"
"These long knives are also exquisite. They are knives imported from Japan. There are also imitations among the people. However, the few we seized are genuine imported goods. They are only equipped with the Imperial Guards and are also called Imperial Guard swords."
The broadsword of the Imperial Guard!
Combined with Jiangnan satin fabrics, tall stature, and strict organizational discipline, this group of people turned out to be the Royal Forest Army! The emperor's personal guard!
Is it possible that the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty has noticed me? Yuan Feng was startled in his heart, and then thought that if the Emperor took action, it would not be this good, and he would not be given a chance to escape. The Emperor is not the only one who can mobilize the Imperial Army.
, the prince lives in the East Palace, and there are plenty of opportunities to win over these royal guards. It is not impossible to win over a few buddies, put on casual clothes and go out to do things while off duty.
"Ye Tang."
"The end will be here."
"Let me send you the letter and send a few more groups over. Since they want to play, let's play bigger."
"yes!"
…
The palace, the gloomy weather, the tall palace, the cold wind blowing, several young eunuchs shivering from the cold, even if they were drinking the wind outside, they did not dare to enter the palace to warm up.
Because His Highness the Crown Prince is acting crazy.
With a crisp "bang" sound, a Jun porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty fell to the ground and broke into countless pieces. A foot wearing a suede boot stepped on the fragments, making a creaking sound.
"More than twenty people have died! What should I tell my father if he asks? What did you do? You are a bunch of trash. I might as well raise a few pigs to raise you!"
Kneeling on the ground was a middle-aged eunuch and a general in red robes. They lowered their heads and did not dare to speak. They allowed the prince to scold him. After the prince threw several pieces of valuable porcelain and vented his anger, the general became cautious.
Said: "Your Highness, don't worry. At the end of the year, the Royal Forest Army is weeding out the old and the weak. They are doing some tricks on the roster. They just say that these more than 20 people are old and they will be eliminated. At the worst, they will give their families some more money to seal their reputations. I guess it won't be a problem."
Something will happen."
After saying this, the prince's mood improved a little. He sat back on the throne, lightly licking the handle of the chair with his slender white fingers, and suddenly asked: "What are those people doing? Have you found out?"
