When General Ma Lin and a dozen of his own soldiers rushed out of the yard, several sharp arrows were fired at them.
Caught off guard, one of the soldiers at the front was hit by several arrows and fell down on the spot.
A scream.
An exciting one.
Marin led the others back to the yard quickly.
Screams and curses spread everywhere.
"Straight bitch!"
"Capture the assassin!"
Never thought about it.
Never before has so many thieves entered a perfectly good farm.
Fortunately, Marin and his soldiers are not vegetarians. The people guarding Marin are all elite servants who have experienced hundreds of battles.
It is also the old foundation left by the former Xuanfu Chief Soldier Ma Fang. These people have been fighting with the veteran general for decades, and they are all ruthless people who have climbed out of the dead.
"Up, up!"
After only a brief pause, under Marin's urging, the soldiers and servants found a few shields, and then rushed out again with the shields on their backs.
"Rush, rush out!"
Marin was also anxious.
With his elite servants, he rushed out of the yard again and took a look at the assassin hiding in the corner. Marin raised his hand and shot him.
The soldiers used shields as cover.
He began to fight back with his muskets and bows and crossbows.
For a moment, arrows were flying like locusts, and the explosion of muskets brought up the choking smoke. Marin led his men and started a fierce battle with the assassins. At this time, more and more guards and escorts came from the front yard.
Under attack from both inside and outside, the assassin became somewhat unable to resist.
As the assassins fell one after another.
Everyone swarmed into the courtyard where Shen Lie lived, rushed into the room, and saw corpses all over the ground, not a single person left alive.
Ma Lin stood blankly in the room, feeling a chill in his heart.
"It's over."
This farm is his ancestral property, but now there is a man from Dongchang who has a thousand households here. Even if he has a hundred mouths, he may not be able to explain it clearly!
In the eerie silence.
in the corner.
A corpse suddenly moved.
In an uproar.
Marin shouted: "Stop it!"
Under the attention of everyone, they saw a figure covered in blood standing up staggeringly among the pile of corpses. Although Shen Lie was a little embarrassed at this moment.
The three-sided thorn in his hand was still dripping with strings of blood drops.
"grown ups!"
Exclaiming.
Ma Lin hurriedly led people to greet him and supported Master Qianhu, who was completely exhausted. A big stone fell to the ground in his heart.
Still alive.
He supported Shen Lie with one hand and looked at the blood stains on the man's body. Ma Lin couldn't help but grin, feeling awe-struck in his heart.
"Master Shen..."
At this moment, Ma Lin only hated himself for not studying enough. Looking at the three-pointed thorn of the Qimen Broken Soldier that was still dripping blood, he didn't know how to describe the horror in his heart.
"Grandma's!"
Marin was furious, so many people couldn't kill him at this moment!
"That's great!"
But Shen Lie stumbled to one side, pulled apart the corpses of several assassins, and exposed the two women Li Susu and Li Chang who were also suppressed by the corpses.
He touched the two women's noses with his trembling hands, and his dim eyes lit up.
Still angry.
Then Shen Lie let out a shocking roar: "Doctor...where is the doctor!"
In the commotion.
Everyone woke up as if from a dream, and hurriedly called the doctor in the village, and then they cleaned up the corpses in the room and pulled out the two dying women.
And at this time.
far away.
Suddenly there were several musket blasts outside Zhuangzi.
There were faint sounds of shouting and cursing.
The courtyard became quiet again, and Shen Lie and Ma Lin looked at each other, their expressions changed at the same time, and there was an ominous omen in their hearts.
It looks like...
This long-planned assassination is not over yet.
"Report!"
Not long after.
Several generals under Ma Lin rushed in and said angrily: "Young Master... our Zhuangzi will be beaten!"
Marin was confused for a while, then became furious and cursed: "Grandma's fault!"
The warlike gene behind the general broke out.
Ma Lin was so furious that he rushed out of Zhuangzi with his own soldiers and generals on the spot.
"Gather troops...to meet the enemy!"
"Hurry up!"
soon.
This farm located in the most remote area of Ming Dynasty was once again plunged into chaos.
The Ming army, bodyguards, and Dongchang gangsters stationed in Zhuangzi became furious. Under the leadership of Ma Lin, they fought with the enemy soldiers who appeared out of nowhere.
In this chaos.
Shen Lie slowly walked outside the room, sat down in the yard, and let the medical officer scrub his wounds, disinfect them, and apply medicine...
He looked at Li Susu and Li Chang's wife who were very angry, and then looked at the gloomy sky in the northwest, and their deep eyes became gloomy.
There was a tinkling sound outside the village.
He calmed down for the time being.
Marin took the matchlock gun again and ran back with his elite servants, still cursing incessantly.
"Son of a bitch, where did the turtle grandson come from...are you rebelling against heaven!"
It was still broad daylight, and the farm of the dignified General Ming Dynasty was unexpectedly attacked, which made General Ma feel a little embarrassed.
Marin was cursed.
However, Shen Lie felt calm and said softly: "Can you keep it?"
There are many soldiers in Zhuangzi, they are well-equipped, and their morale is high. It is estimated that the enemy soldiers will not be able to attack for a while.
But Shen Lie is worried that the supplies in this village will be exhausted...
As Shen Lie expressed his worries, Ma Lin gritted his molars and said fiercely: "Keep your heart in your stomach... This Zhuangzi has been cultivating grain for many years and is very strong, with sufficient weapons, gunpowder and arrows. .”
Shen Lie was relieved.
Looking at the descendant of the first general of the Jiajing Dynasty, he had a ferocious look on his face, and I couldn't help but secretly admire him. Although General Ma was a bit weak in temperament, he was usually obedient.
But it’s not easy to mess with even if you are really cruel!
He is a manageable person.
It looks like.
There are many such large farms in Xuanfu and Datong areas. Most of them are privately owned by the generals, and the output of the farms is used to support the private soldiers and servants of the generals.
This is normal in the Xuanda area.
so.
The warlords in the late Ming Dynasty formed a separatist regime. They relied on their own troops and relied on self-respect. The large and small military leaders were formed step by step in this way. The root cause was that the court did not provide money.
If the court doesn't give money, what can the generals do?
So after a whole day of chaos.
As night falls.
The assassination failed.
The attack on Zhuangzi resulted in heavy casualties.
This group of enemy soldiers appeared out of nowhere and had no choice but to retreat in embarrassment, but they were still lingering not far away, seeming to be brewing a larger-scale attack.
In the back house.
Shen Lie regained some energy and sat silently by the bed, looking at Li Susu, who was seriously injured and in a coma, with a pretty face that was very pale after losing blood.
Shen Lie touched the painful wound on his face and looked at her gradually breathing evenly, feeling a little more at ease. After all, she was a female escort who traveled around all the time.
Her physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary weak women.
After telling a strong woman in the village to take good care of her, Shen Lie walked out of the room and walked into the bedroom next door.
There is someone lying next door.
Li Changshi was injured more seriously than Li Susu...
After sitting silently in front of the bed for a moment, Shen Lie got up and walked out, looking at the dozens of corpses lying scattered in the yard.
His face was as sinking as water.
The faces with different expressions lost their color and looked like dead fish, but they still had very obvious Tatar characteristics.
