Chapter 442
At the same time, in the outer city of Qinzhou, a remote place.
Officer Qi Ying was leading a large number of Wuwei Mansion officers and soldiers, lurking nearby, preparing to arrest a group of people in the house not far away.
Because just before, he received a secret report from the offline line, saying that there were more than a dozen foreigners here, with strange whereabouts, often staying in seclusion and seeing crossbows.
Things like crossbows have extremely strong long-range lethality and are strictly prohibited from being carried by the people.
Once this happens, the other party is probably either an assassin or a ill-hearted person.
At this time, King Xuan will make great contributions in the future. She has already discovered that if there are monarchs of the countries who have ulterior motives and want to provoke Qin Xuan's war, then assassination of King Xuan in Qinzhou will undoubtedly be the most effective!
At that time, no matter how Qin State explains it, the war between the two countries will definitely be inevitable!
Therefore, in order to prevent this incident, Xiao Yuan had already ordered a secretly arranged an invisible line of defense, and at the same time investigated the assassin's detailed work to ensure the safety of Qinzhou.
Qi Ying is not only a very skilled person, but also has a good way of investigating and handling cases, and has a wide connection.
The connections here do not refer to the officialdom, but involve all kinds of religions and all kinds of people. To put it simply, if he wants to investigate something in Qinzhou, he will continue to talk about it, there will be many local snakes to help him.
A group of officers and soldiers, hiding around the corner, looked at the house not far away, Qi Ying asked in a voice:
"Are you sure?"
Next to him was a man in thick clothes and linen. He immediately nodded when he heard this: "Don't worry, Lord Qi, the villain and a few brothers saw it with their own eyes is here!"
"Okay!" Qi Ying suppressed his excitement and immediately waved forward.
As he moved, a group of officers and soldiers stepped forward one after another, some leaned against the walls on both sides of the gate, drew out battle knives, and some bows and crossbows at the same time, surrounding the place in an instant.
Then, a soldier in casual clothes came to the door and began to knock on the door: "Is anyone?"
"Is anyone?"
He kept shouting, and soon, a crack was opened, revealing a gloomy face: "What's the matter?"
The officers and soldiers squeezed and laughed: "I'm passing by here, can I ask for a cup of water..."
From the inside of the door, there were no officers and soldiers outside, because Qi Ying and others were all lying on both sides of the gate.
But before he could get the next order, a scream had already come. The knocking official staggered back, covering his belly with his hands, his face pale, and his hands were covered with blood.
Ah!? Seeing this scene, Qi Ying was shocked. Unexpectedly, the other party was so vicious that passers-by just borrowed water and killed him as soon as he said he could kill him!
He stepped forward instantly, dragged the injured official to retreat, and at the same time he made a quick decision: "Get in forcing in!"
With a command, the officers and soldiers who had already prepared on the left and right sides quickly stepped forward. Several people worked together to hold the sharp wooden stakes, aimed at the gate, and hit the door with a fierce force.
With a bang, the gate was broken, and the officers and soldiers quickly entered and were well-trained.
Inside the house, the gloomy man might not have expected that there were so many officers and soldiers outside ambushed. He was shocked and fled to the inner room, and screamed: "Enemy attack--"
This is a common signal in the military!
Qi Ying was shocked and waved his knife and shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
After entering the Wuwei Mansion, the officers and soldiers of the front row instantly squatted half-squatted, with crossbows and arrows at the back row, and bending the first round of volleys.
The sharp arrows came, as dense as rain, and shot straight into the man. Before he could run to the door of the inner room, he had already become a hedgehog all over his body!
"Enemy attack - run..." He was still reaching out and shouting before he died.
In the inner room, more than a dozen young men were already alert and pulled out their weapons and swords, terrified.
But what followed was another volley!
There were crackling sounds one after another.
The sharp arrow was nailed to the wooden door and penetrated the doors and windows. Countless arrows shot into the house.
There were screams, and there were also jingling weapons colliding.
Inside the house, those people were obviously blocking it.
Qi Ying looked cold: "Continue to shoot arrows!"
With such an arrow shot, it won't take long to go to the whole house.
Sure enough, with a few screams, not long after, a man jumped out, swept the swords in his hand one after another, cutting off the arrows.
"Leave a living!" With the order, the officers and soldiers gathered their bows one after another.
At the same time, the man jumped onto the roof with a little foot, ran away.
"Where can you escape!" With a loud shout, Qi Ying followed closely and jumped up.
He was extremely skilled and as fast as lightning. In just a moment, he had chased behind the man.
Hearing the movement behind him, the man took out a hidden weapon without saying a word, but didn't even look at it, and threw it backwards. At the same time, his body swept quickly and passed another roof.
With a few jingles, Qi Ying stepped on the tiles and kept his body, and the sword instantly knocked away the hidden weapon.
"The trick of the devil! You dare to show off your skills! The rats won't surrender!"
Ah!? Unexpectedly, this officer was so powerful that the man dared not stop at all. He immediately jumped off the roof, stepped on the courtyard wall, and wanted to jump into an alley.
But at this moment, a rope swept over in a diagonal way, hitting the man's legs and wrists, and then tangled them hard.
The man was caught off guard and screamed in surprise. He fell directly under the wall and began to be dragged away by someone.
In this situation, I knew it was exposed and I could not escape. While the man was dragged, he made a quick decision, reached into his arms, took out a pill, and put it directly into his mouth.
When he dragged him to his side with a rope, his face had already turned blue and the corners of his mouth were bleeding.
"This is the one who committed suicide by taking poison." said the man holding the rope. He was wearing brocade clothes and official boots, and was a staff member of the Duwei Camp.
"It seems that these people are dead soldiers." The other person's face was not very good-looking.
This clue was discovered by the Wuwei Mansion, but it was also watched by the Duwei Camp for a long time.
The two sides collided.
Immediately afterwards, Qi Ying arrived and jumped down. He first looked at the dead assassins on the ground, then looked at the two Duwei battalions personnel, and the fire suddenly got up!
"You!" He pointed at the knife and said furiously, "Do you know how much effort these assassins have put in! Now they are dead!"
"He committed suicide by taking poison himself." The people from Duweiying quickly explained.
"If you hadn't appeared suddenly! How could it be like this!" Qi Ying remained angry.
At this time, a large number of officers and soldiers also arrived here.
"Take it for me!" Qi Ying shouted angrily.
"You dare!?"
"Qi Ying! Everyone is doing things for the king! Working for the country! I am the guard camp, and it is not easy to mess with! Let's try it today!"
But Qi Ying was so angry! She was about to catch up with the assassin, but such a change happened. How could she not get angry?
"Catch it!"
"No!" The order was issued again, and the officers and soldiers of the Wuwei Mansion stopped hesitating, and moved up and down, and stepped forward one after another.
Chapter completed!
