Chapter 73 Assassination
"My lord, it's getting so late, I'd better send someone to take you back."

At the gate of Nanzhen Fusi, after a busy day, Wang Kuo finally finished the backlog of official duties before the curfew, and walked out of the gate of Nanzhen Fusi, intending to go back to Royal Academy to rest .

Tomorrow the students are going to take part in the imperial examination. At this time, as a teacher, he naturally needs to go back and cheer for them.

Therefore, even if it was completely dark, he could only spare no effort to go back before the curfew.

Hearing the words of his subordinate Qianhu, Wang Kuo immediately grinned, what are you kidding, this is the capital city with the highest safety factor in the country, and it is at the foot of the emperor, who dare to deal with him here?
Looking down at his attire, how many people does the majestic Nanzhen Fusi Zhenfu envoy, a military officer of the fourth rank, hold the power of life and death?

Then you send Yiqi Jinyiwei to take me back.

Wang Kuo, who was standing at the door, nodded in agreement without thinking.

Just kidding, he is not stupid, how many people he has offended during this time, how can he not count in his heart?
What's more, he just asked Di Bo, who was protecting him, to go out to do errands during the day, and now his surroundings have changed from five people protecting him at all times to only three people.

Because before Di Bo left, Wang Kuo asked him to take away one of them, so that he could have someone who ordered him under him.

A team of small banner Jinyiwei has ten people, a team of general banners has 50 people, and Baihu has 100 people.

Following Qian Hu's arrangement, a team of Jin Yiwei soon came in front of Wang Kuo. In cooperation with the three martial arts masters who had been protecting him in the dark, the safety factor immediately increased.

"My lord." Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi led the people and bowed respectfully.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Wang Kuo glanced at Xiaoqi lightly, patted his shoulder, and said, "Let's go."

With that said, he turned around and walked towards the street first.

"The five of you will follow me to lead the way, and the rest will be responsible for protecting the rear." Xiao Qi was patted on the shoulder by Wang Kuo, and his heart was suddenly agitated, and he said to himself, "I must perform well today, and strive to give my lord A good impression."

With the promotion of official positions, some people have paid more and more attention to the impression in his eyes. Even a simple sentence from him will even make subordinates think about it. This is power...

As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, the eleven Jin Yiwei quickly formed a front and rear formation, protecting Wang Kuo in the middle.

Among them, Xiao Qi walked in the front with one person, two people behind him, two people behind Wang Kuo's side to protect, and five people behind him in a two-two-one formation.

The road from Nanzhen Fusi to Royal Academy is not close, because one is in Nancheng and the other is in Dongcheng, so they have to walk for a full hour, that is, half an hour.

Because it was already very dark at this time, and it was close to the curfew, there were not many pedestrians on the road, and I didn't meet a pedestrian for a long time on the street.

It's just that everyone didn't think much about it, but after walking for a while, Wang Kuo suddenly felt a jump in his heart, a bad premonition welled up in his heart, and he stopped with a serious face.

Quiet, terribly quiet.

The surrounding streets are really too quiet, and this is obviously abnormal in the bustling capital city.

After walking a few steps, Xiaoqi suddenly felt the sound of footsteps disappearing behind him, so he could not help showing a suspicious look and hastily turned around to look, only to find that everyone headed by Wang Kuo had stopped, and couldn't help saying.

"My lord, why..."

"My lord, be careful, there are assassins here." Suddenly a familiar voice came from the corner of an alley.

"Everyone is ready to fight." Before Xiaoqi could finish speaking, Wang Kuo, who heard the voice, had already yelled angrily, and at the same time his figure quickly retreated, approaching like a house next to the street.

"Bastard, I didn't expect this guy to have guards in the dark. He's so cunning." On the roof not far away, a man in night clothes beat his chest regretfully, "It's almost, it's almost , Wang Kuo has completely stepped into the encirclement."

But what he didn't expect was that Wang Kuo was so vigilant, and when he was about to step into the encirclement, he discovered something was wrong!

Although it is possible that Wang Kuo will continue to move forward and step into their encirclement after not seeing the enemy, but it is more likely that Wang Kuo will directly retreat to Nanzhen Fusi after discovering that something is wrong.

The arrow is on the string, and it has to be fired. They can't just let so many of them just watch Wang Kuo lead people back, right?
"Everyone do it, kill them for me, and leave no one behind." Now, as the commander this time, he can only give the order to attack decisively.

As the order sounded, countless figures rushed out of the dark corners of the street, alleys, and roofs. All of these people were wearing night clothes and holding swords.

This group of people looked like well-trained people, because after these countless figures appeared, they were stunned except for the sound of footsteps, and no one made any other sounds.

"Everyone shrinks the formation, fully protects the adults, and sends out the signal for help." Xiao Qi's eyelids twitched, and without thinking, he quickly retreated with one person. In the blink of an eye, eleven Jin Yiwei formed a simple defensive formation.

At the same time, a Jin Yiwei also quickly sounded the signal.

A flame shot up into the sky from a bamboo tube-like object, and turned into a ball of flames in the sky.

"Kill..." The leading man glanced at the sparks in the sky indifferently, feeling nothing in his heart.

Now that he has decided to act, he has already embraced the will to die, not to mention that he has already prepared for all this, and now it is up to who is quick...

Given the distance from Nanzhen Fusi to here, plus the time for gathering, they have a full quarter of an hour to do things, so as long as Wang Kuo is dealt with within a quarter of an hour, they will have enough time to retreat.

"Fire arrows..."

Following Xiaoqi's order, all the Jinyi guards also quickly opened their sleeves.The crossbow bolts tied to his arms were exposed.

Whoosh...

The arrows brought the sound of breaking wind, and in the blink of an eye, they had already reached the eyes of the men in black, and four or five men in black who rushed to the front also fell to the ground.

However, the number of men in black was really too many. Four or five people fell down, and there was no slight decrease in the number of the other party.

On the contrary, because four or five of their companions fell down, not only did the group of men in black not slow down, but they rushed even faster.

With a gloomy face, Xiao Qi glanced left and right, only to find that these men in black did not have any prohibited weapons such as bows and crossbows in their hands, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

If these people have bows and arrows in their hands, they don't need to shoot. They only need a few rounds of shooting, and they can all go down to meet the King of Hades.

"It's firing." Another round of arrows was shot, but it was of no use other than taking away a few men in black again.

At this time, Wang Kuo's expression was extremely gloomy, and he never expected that someone would dare to set up an ambush in the capital to assassinate him in spite of the world's disgrace.

With a swish, Wang Kuo drew out the saber at his waist, and carefully looked at the surrounding situation. Once someone rushed forward, he could only do his best.

"What the hell, don't let me know who you are, or I will destroy your family." He cursed with a gloomy face, but secretly rejoiced in his heart. Fortunately, he was afraid of death and brought a team of Jin Yiwei out, otherwise he would be afraid of death now. It's really dead and can't die anymore.

But the current situation is obviously not very optimistic, because after two rounds of crossbow shooting, a group of men in black have rushed forward, and all the Jinyi guards had no choice but to hold big knives to meet them.

"kill……"

The two sides faced each other with swords and swords in an instant, and they fought close to each other. At this time, although all the guards in Jinyi still wanted to protect Wang Kuo subconsciously, they obviously couldn't be foolproof.

Kill... Wang Kuo let out a low shout, and rushed up with a knife.

"My lord, be careful!" Three people suddenly rushed out from the dark corner. These three people rushed out from three different directions, and the voice just now was made by one of these three people.

It can be said that it was precisely because of their reminders and Wang Kuo's vigilance that they did not step into the encirclement completely.

These three people's skills are very extraordinary, some are holding big knives, some are holding long swords, and one of them is even using a long spear.

As soon as the three of them appeared, they immediately attacked the killer, and killed them directly in a rampage. None of the men in black they met along the way could take a few moves from the three of them.

"Bastards, I thought you were dead." Looking at the three people who rushed out suddenly, Wang Kuo was relieved. After following them to warn, no one showed up for so long. He thought these guys had died. It was cleaned up.

But now he is obviously not allowed to be distracted, because the three subordinates are fierce, and they are still more than ten meters away. Instead, the man in black is right in front of him. The men in black killing is inextricably linked.

"Go and block him, and I will kill the dog official Wang Kuo for the rest."

The appearance of the three martial arts masters naturally attracted the commander's attention. With a wave of his hand, more than 20 people dispersed and went straight to the three of them.

They don't seek meritorious deeds, but seek no faults. These people understand that it is difficult for them alone to deal with these three people, but it is no problem to stop these three people.

Wang Kuo and the others retreated while fighting. Because they didn't step into the encirclement, there was no one behind them. This is the reason why they can persist until now.

Wang Kuo only felt that the big knife in his hand was getting heavier and heavier, so his heart was getting heavier and heavier.

If it wasn't for the fact that after the incident with the Golden Bear, he often used his free time to exercise himself, he would have died long ago and couldn't die anymore.

But even so, with more and more people in black, he could hardly hold on anymore.

"Bastard, is it true that I am going to die here today?"

Seeing another Jin Yiwei fell in a pool of blood in front of him, only five of the eleven Jin Yiwei were left.

If it weren't for this small path, the width of the street is limited, and a few people standing together will not be afraid of being besieged. They only need to withstand the enemies in front of them, and don't need to think about the back and sides. I guess...

"My lord, let's go, let's stop them." Xiao Qi's eyes were bloodshot, watching a famous subordinate fall in front of him, he felt pain and fear in his heart.

But he understands that only when the adults are alive, people like himself will not sacrifice in vain, because the adults will help them take care of their funeral affairs, so that their families will have no worries.

As for letting them lose Wang Kuo and run first?
Unless they were willing to abandon their families and remain a wanted criminal forever, they were dead.
