Spring and Autumn Confucian Heroes

Chapter 409 Assassination
"Crackling, crackling, crackling!"

Just when Wu Jing shouted to remind Huan Chang, the dozen or so people dressed as civilians quickly took out a crossbow with a strange shape from their arms, took aim and immediately pulled the trigger.

This kind of crossbow is a continuous-fire crossbow, which is specially designed to restrain warriors. It is very rare even in the army. Even warriors in the peak realm who enter the house will die after being shot by the crossbow.

More than a dozen bows and crossbows fired in different directions, sealing all Huan Chang's evasion positions, and the green arrows came to Huan Chang's side in an instant with a piercing sound.

"Clang clang clang!"

Huan Changzheng was rushing to the recruiting office of the new army with four attendants. He never thought that someone would assassinate him. He didn't become vigilant until he heard Wu Jing's voice.

But because things happened so fast, Huan Chang didn't even have time to pull out Zhan Lu, so he had to pump up the true energy in his body to protect himself, and then waved the scabbard to shoot down the arrows that were coming.

Although many arrows were shot down by the scabbard, Huan Chang still felt the powerful impact, and his expression changed slightly.

He has led the army for so long, and he is very familiar with the equipment in the army. From the powerful impact of these arrows, it can be inferred that these bows and crossbows are prohibited items.

These bows and crossbows can shoot and kill warriors in the peak realm, even in the entire Song Kingdom, it is impossible to have too many.

Moreover, these bows and crossbows are almost all controlled by important generals in the army, and all of them are equipped with well-equipped troops. Even the great nobles in the Song Kingdom can hardly get this kind of bows and crossbows.

But now, some people use this kind of bow and crossbow to kill Huan Chang, so it is very likely that there are senior generals in the army who are also very opposed to the new law, and then take the risk and prepare to assassinate Huan Chang.

If the rest of the fighters were sent, with Huan Chang's powerful perception ability and his own high-strength martial arts, it would be impossible to kill Huan Chang except for the fighters in the metamorphosis realm.

But these assassins secretly carry bows and crossbows, which is completely different.

First of all, these assassins are just warriors at the peak of the hall, and there is no real energy fluctuation in their bodies at all. As long as they don't arouse their blood energy, Huan Chang can't notice the strangeness of these people without paying attention.

Secondly, this kind of bow and crossbow is too lethal, and the firing speed is very fast. Even with Huan Chang's current martial arts, if he is caught off guard by a bow and crossbow, there is still a high chance of death.

After all, this kind of bow and crossbow is specially made to deal with warriors. Even if warriors use the body-protecting true energy in an emergency, it is still impossible to block the attack of arrows.

"Puff puff!"

Although Huan Chang blocked the arrows that were flying fast, the four guards who were in the early stage of entering the house around him were quickly shot to death.

"Damn!"

Sensing the death of four of his subordinates, Huan Chang was immediately furious, and was slightly distracted when he was shot in the left arm by an arrow.

The body-protecting zhenqi that wrapped Huan Chang couldn't stop this kind of arrow made of special materials at all.

In fact, these bows and crossbows are fired at such a high speed that even if a martial artist in the peak realm loses his focus a little bit, there is a high probability of being shot to death.

Huan was often attacked by more than a dozen bows and crossbows at the same time, and there was no way to dodge, and it was reasonable for his left arm to be injured.

"hiss!"

The severe pain made Huanchang clear-headed, and then Huanchang felt a tingling sensation in his left arm, and the wound quickly turned black.

"poisonous!"

Huan Chang cried out, but quickly calmed down.

Because Huan Chang had swallowed Ten Thousand Snake Fruits and drank the blood of the golden dragon python, it was impossible for Huan Chang to pose any threat to these highly poisonous poisons.

"Dare to assassinate the general, court death!"

Just when Huan Chang endured the pain and prepared to fight back, he saw a figure rushing into the middle of those archers, and his voice was the one who reminded himself to be careful just now.

"Buzz!"

The simple spear trembled in the void, and a phantom of a phoenix suddenly appeared, making a loud cry in the air.

Then, the phantom of the phoenix suddenly fluttered its wings and flew high, transforming into more than a dozen flying birds, and pounced towards those crossbowmen.

"Puff puff!"

Asuka seemed weak, but in fact it carried powerful lethality. All the crossbowmen who were attacked were killed in an instant, leaving only one alive.

"Crack!"

The arms of the only surviving crossbowman were also cut off, and the crossbow in his hand fell to the ground with a crisp sound.

The crossbowman was approached by a powerful warrior, and the outcome was self-evident.

These crossbowmen are all warriors in the peak realm, although in the eyes of ordinary people, they are already very powerful.

But for Wu Jing, as long as he gets into the middle of these people, it will be a one-sided massacre.

"boom!"

Wu Jing killed more than a dozen crossbowmen with one move, then stepped forward and slapped the only remaining crossbowman.

"Crack, click, click!"

The mighty palm slapped on the red crossbowman, and the bones in the man's body suddenly exploded one after another, and his face began to twist violently.

It turned out that Wu Jing had already removed this person's important joints by using a special palm technique, and it was too late for this person to commit suicide now.

Huan saw this often, but narrowed his eyes slightly.

This stranger who appeared suddenly, even Huan Chang's eyes lighted up with the shot he used just now.

The most important thing is that Huan Chang can feel the military atmosphere from the opponent's moves. This kind of marksmanship is also a group attack move, and it can play its greatest role on the battlefield.

Moreover, the palm technique that Wu Jing used to remove the assassin's joints just now is also a method used by the generals to deal with secret agents, which made Huan Chang start to guess Wu Jing's identity.

"Grassman Wu Jing, meet the general!"

After Wu Jing restrained the crossbowman, he immediately came to Huan Chang's side and half-knelt on the ground to salute.

Even though Wu Jing had resigned from the military a long time ago, he was still a general in the army. Huan Chang was the general of the Song Dynasty and the promulgator of the new law. Naturally, Wu Jing should be respectful.

Huan Chang originally guessed that Wu Jing was a lieutenant general, but when he heard that the other party called himself a 'grassman', he immediately felt confused again.

"Thank you, the strong man, for your help."

Huan Chang looked around and found that many people had slowly gathered around, and a general in the distance was already galloping towards here with a large group of soldiers.

Knowing that this is not a place to talk, Huan Chang immediately suppressed the doubts in his heart, and prepared to take Wu Jing into the barracks first.

"Pfft!"

However, at this moment, a gust of wind shot out from the crowd and just hit the living creature.

The crossbowman, who was originally looking pained, died instantly on the spot after being hit by the strong wind.

"court death!"

When Huan saw this, he was furious, and he stomped his right foot on the ground, and the vigorous Qi burst out immediately, and then he ran directly towards the person who made the shot from the ground.

"Pfft!"

However, before Huan Chang's attack was over, the man had already sever his heart, bright red blood spurted from his mouth, and his body fell limply to the ground.
