"Fuck, there's an assassin!" Jiang Quan shouted, jumped up with all his strength, jumped off his horse and went to help Chang Yu, when another row of arrows came.
Suddenly there were loud screams, people neighed, and the rest of the crowd was in panic. It happened so suddenly, without any warning. In the blink of an eye, several more people were shot.
"Everyone dismount, everyone dismount, Chunxiang fights back, fights back." Chang Yu felt severe pain in his shoulder and shouted in pain. Then he glanced left and right and saw an alley behind him: "Everyone, retreat to the alley!"
The moment Chang Yu was shot over, Chunxiang was shocked and took out his hand crossbow to fight back. However, it was dark and he didn't know where the opponent was hiding. Moreover, the enemy was raining arrows, so he had no choice but to quickly bring the rest of his entourage.
He dismounted and hid behind him, retreating towards the alley behind.
The people were in a panic and finally retreated to the alley. The opponent's arrows also stopped. Chang Yu took a quick look and found that there were many injured by the arrows. There were more than ten people, most of whom were Wu Mengming's Jin Yiwei. After all, all the eunuchs were injured.
Wear cotton armor.
"It must have been done by that evil dog Jiang Quan," Chunxiang gritted his teeth with hatred.
Wu Mengming was silent, but his face was extremely ugly, and there was a trace of panic. He dared to attack Jin Yiwei!
At this time, Chang Yu had no intention of guessing who did it. He looked around and thought something bad in his heart. Although this place is in the city, it is remote because it is not far from the military camp to the west. There are few people living around and there are many
The mixed forest and a dry river ditch make this a perfect ambush.
"Pay attention to the back of the alley." Chang Yu was observing the terrain. Suddenly his heart moved and he shouted loudly. Then several black figures flashed out from behind the alley, whoosh, whoosh, arrows pierced the night sky, and someone screamed again.
Wu Mengming was lying in the corner and cursing loudly. Chunxiang and others already had crossbows in their hands. When Chang Yu exclaimed, he subconsciously turned to the back alley and pulled the trigger. Immediately, several voices came from there.
With a muffled groan, the rain of arrows immediately disappeared, and the enemy retreated.
"Jiang Quan, take the people to guard the back alley, and Chunxiang to guard the front alley." Chang Yu said, reaching out to Fang San and taking the simple knife from Fang San's hand. He glanced left and right, then climbed up the wall. There were abandoned houses on both sides and no one was there.
The eunuchs behind him were about to follow him up, but they heard Chang Yu exclaim again: "There is an enemy" and then rolled down again. Several arrows passed over his head and hit the opposite wall, causing sparks to appear.
It was obvious that the enemy had set up an ambush here, but unfortunately Chang Yu and others got in unknowingly.
What's even more despicable is that if the enemy is out in the open and Chang Yu has a knife in his hand, he really won't be afraid. However, the cold arrow fired in the dark is extremely fatal, but he is helpless for the moment and can only hide in this short alley of more than ten meters, unable to move.
They are really angry, and they don’t know what the enemy’s dark tricks are, so it’s impossible to let them survive until dawn.
If Chang Yu had his armor with him, he could have rushed out, but his horse general Fang San only took his long sword with him and put the armor in a car in the barracks.
Even Chunxiang and other eunuch soldiers originally wore helmets, but after entering Datong, they were considered cumbersome and placed in the barracks. They only wore cotton armor. No one could expect to be attacked and killed in Datong City.
Anyone else would have ignored his men's lives and let them rush out to fight a bloody path, but Chang Yu was not so cruel. He carefully selected and trained these attendants one by one, so how could they be so ruined.
"Eunuch Chang, please think of a way. We won't die here." Wu Mengming kept lying in the corner without raising his head, even though he was surrounded by guards in brocade and with crossbowmen from the eunuch army in front and behind to guard him.
Still worried, completely afraid of death.
"How can it be so easy to want me to die?" Chang Yu also felt angry, but he couldn't think of any good solution for the moment.
"Boss, I will lead a few brothers to rush out and clear the way. I will surely lead to the hiding place of the thieves..." Jiang Quan ran over from the back alley and actually asked for a fight. Chang Yu was very surprised. He still remembered that he had just traveled through time and was in the dormitory.
I slapped Jiang Quan so hard that he didn't dare to fight back. At that time, I thought that such a tough-looking guy could not imagine that he would change like this in such a short period of time.
"No" Chang Yu was a little confused. If he let them go out, they would die. If they didn't go out, would they be blocked in the alley and used as a target?
"We all have cotton armor on our bodies. How can the thief hit his head by chance?" Jiang Quan snorted and waved the knife in his hand as if he was eager to try it.
Chang Yu lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head. He had it. Then he asked a few people to take off their cotton armor and hand it to Jiang Quan. The six of you covered your heads: "Get out of the alley and run southwest to lure the thieves to shoot arrows. If they don't
Chase, then turn back."
Jiang Quan and the other six men took the order, put cotton armor on their heads, fixed it for a while, then walked to the entrance of the alley with their bows and crossbows, got on their horses, and slapped them hard, and the six horses rushed out.
Then there was a jingling sound, and in the darkness the enemy immediately fired arrows, hitting Jiang Quan and others as well as their mounts.
"In the jungle in the northeast corner..."
"Take out the low house in the southeast..."
The neighing of horses outside could not cover up the voices of Jiang Quan and others.
"Get started!" Chang Yu gave the order and took the lead to rush out of the alley. He led Chunxiang and more than ten people, aimed in the direction Jiang Quan said, and without saying a word, he directly pulled the trigger and fired randomly. As expected, screams were heard.
"Charge over." At this time, Jiang Quan and others had already turned back on horseback, and rushed directly towards the forest and the small house.
"No"
Chang Yu shouted loudly, but still slowed down. He saw Jiang Quan and others falling from their horses, but their mounts were shot dead.
Charge! At this time, Chang Yu was so angry that he didn't care much. He rushed towards Jiang Quan with a knife. He only heard a whooshing sound in his ears, which was horrifying.
"Cover me, retreat quickly." When Wu Mengming in the alley saw Chang Yu and his men rushing out, he immediately felt no sense of security. His men had no cotton armor, no crossbows, and only single swords, so they could not fight at a distance, so he quickly followed.
Run.
Chang Yu is now a little lucky. Fortunately, he was equipped with hand crossbows for the eunuch army to make up for their lack of archery skills. The crossbows have a large killing range, are easy to operate, and are effortless. Although they are in the open, they can still aim in the general direction.
The feeling of suppression leaves the opponent temporarily short of firepower.
It was this short opportunity that was seized by Chang Yu. He immediately led his men to fire randomly while retreating quickly towards the southwest governor's mansion. The eunuch army had armor and crossbows behind the palace to cover the Jinyi guards. The wounded were all mounted, and the others were on foot under the leadership of Chang Yu.
run.
He ran wildly in one breath and gradually moved away from the battlefield. The enemy did not catch up, which made Chang Yu a little disappointed and angry. He was furious at this time and wanted to fight to vent his anger, but his opponent didn't even show up.
"How could this be?"
When Chang Yu and others rushed to the governor's office, Wei Jingyuan was shocked when he heard the news. He almost lost his breath when he saw the arrow on Chang Yu's shoulder.
Chang Yu didn't bother to explain much to him, and quickly counted the injuries, which made him furious. Six of his eunuch attendants were injured, but it was not serious. After all, they had Mianjia on them, but Wu Mengming's Jinyi guards were in terrible condition.
Half of the more than twenty attendants were injured, and three of them were seriously injured and could not recover.
"If you don't kill Jiang Gou, our family will not be a human being." Chang Yu punched him hard, causing the tea cup to fly on the table, but it also made his shoulder hurt half to death. The doctor who was taking the arrow for him was also frightened.
Jump.
"But there's no proof that he did it." Wei Jingyuan gritted his teeth and paced back and forth in the room; "Jiang Thief doesn't leave any clues behind what he does. Even though he knows it's him, he can't produce evidence!"
"Why do I need evidence to kill him?" Chang Yu said fiercely.
"But how to do it? Datong is his territory and he has a lot of troops. Eunuch Chang can't act rashly?" Wu Mengming also looked sad and angry. This guy was frightened, but he still had some sense.
Moreover, Chang Yu snorted disdainfully: "What's his territory? How dare he rebel against our family? Even if he rebels, besides his confidants, there are a few others who dare to rebel, and at this time
The Datong barracks is empty, what kind of waves can he make?"
As soon as he mentioned the military camp, Chang Yu suddenly thought of something and immediately summoned Chunxiang and asked him to take people to the military camp quickly to tell Cheng Ming and Tang Potian to block the gate of the military camp and not allow anyone to enter or exit. He also quickly sent a team of people to the governor's mansion to guard the camp.
.
In order to prevent any mistakes on the way, Chunxiang took ten eunuchs with him and transferred fifty government servants and twenty guards' servants from the governor's office. They were fully armed and bypassed the road just now to report the news to the Western Army Camp.
After Chunxiang left, the arrowhead on Chang Yu's shoulder had been removed and medicine was applied. At the same time, the three wounded Jinyi Guards were also declared dead. Looking at the three corpses, Wu Mengming had a dark face and said nothing.
Chang Yu clenched his fists and looked silent.
Wei Jingyuan let out a long sigh: "Eunuch Chang, if Lord Wu wants to seize Jiang Yu, he must quickly collect evidence of collaborating with the enemy. Otherwise, since he is powerful in Datong and has no evidence to seize people, I'm afraid you won't even be able to take them out of the city."
"Sir Wei, Jin Yiwei never needs to prove his identity when taking someone, he can just take it if there is suspicion. Do you really think that Jin Yiwei is just a decoration?" Wu Mengming was hard-headed for a rare moment.
But Chang Yu's next words shocked both of them: "When will our family take him? We will kill him."
"No!" Wei Jingyuan and Wu Mengming shouted in unison in shock. When they heard that Chang Yu wanted to kill Jiang Yu, they thought he was angry, or that he wanted to take it back to Beijing first and deal with it slowly, but now he meant to kill Jiang Yu in Datong.
Remove the ginger boils.
Jiang Yu was the commander-in-chief of a town. There were only about twenty people in the Ming Dynasty. He was a senior general and would be equivalent to the commander of a military region in future generations. However, Chang Yu was about to be killed at this moment. Can you not be shocked?
Wei Jingyuan, in particular, thought that although you, Dongchang, had the right to arrest subjects directly without the approval of the Sanfa Division, it was only for arrest and interrogation, and you could not kill them without the emperor's order.
"Don't worry, you two. We have the emperor's orders in our family. If you kill this thief, you will kill him. The emperor will never blame you. If you help me, not only will you not be implicated, but you will be successful!" Chang Yu sneered.
Wei Jingyuan was silent and thought to himself that this person belonged to Dongchang and was ordered by the emperor to investigate the case of Jiang Quan's collusion with the enemy. He might have obtained the holy will early and could kill him directly if necessary.
But Wu Mengming had another thought in his mind, could this boy really be from Dongchang? Otherwise, no matter how much the emperor favored him, he would not be able to give him the power of life and death. But how did he know that the name of Jiang Yu was on the list of secret orders given to Chang Yu by Chongzhen?
That and acting according to circumstances are actually the power of life and death.
