Chapter 101 Countermeasures (4000 words here)
After half a sound, Jiang Tian was already surrounded by the front and back, and Jin Wu, who was galloping through the street, rode among them.Following the clearing of the road ahead with small flags and flags, wherever the whistle passed, the officials and civilians flocked on the street, all of them who were familiar with the road gave way and retreated.

In a sense, only the messengers/pawns from all over the world who carry Mu Qi Yu Talisman, and Jinwuwei Street envoys who are in charge of the left and right six streets in the capital, can have a good reputation in Chang'an, except for the big driver book who rarely travels. Qualifications for galloping on all major streets.

Of course, the few royal relatives and ministers who received special favors in the early years can also make an exception because of this.For example, the brothers and sisters of Yang Guozhong, who were favored during the Tianbao period, ignored the curfew and had fun all night long, and then galloped back to the house on horseback; this also gave birth to a fortune in collecting flower tin.

Another example is Li Linfu, the Prime Minister of Power who created the allusion of "Sword with Honey Belly". He was afraid of being assassinated because he had too much resentment attached to him; The places are all different, and the doors are sealed with wood and stone.

However, since the Taixing Dynasty, the Empress Dowager Shen, who was known as "Yaoshun among the women" and protected and supported the emperors of the Five Dynasties, began to uphold the imperial guidelines; coupled with the Empress Dowager's later years, the official rise of the three supporters.Almost all of these relatives, relatives and ministers in power who dared to ride horses in the street disappeared.

During the period, even if there were some young and frivolous officials and children of noble families, they made exceptions; they would soon become shortcuts and stepping stones for those young censors who were eager to make progress in the third court of censors. .It's like the dark history of the earlier Kodak.

According to the rumors, it is said that because of his sudden awakening of the strange XP of a bigwig in women's clothing; he couldn't help but bet with others that he could cross-dress and mix in, and was strictly supervised by the government, rejecting all male creatures' women's street; Retired; the result was a farce where an acquaintance overturned the car.

As a result, two of them were directly achieved and recommended, and they happened to be walking in the palace censor who was on duty and patrolling the streets nearby.But in any case, Jiang Tian can be regarded as a disguised glory, enjoying some kind of pleasure and ease of galloping on the street in this capital city.

Therefore, when Jiang Tian's team of Jinwu cavalry started from the Chongxianfang resident on the east side of the street in Chang'an County, and headed for Yanping Gate in the west of the city; Come up or meet face-to-face for the latest news from everywhere.

So, with these constant updates.The cavalry team headed by Zheng Jinwu turned around several times on the street, and finally turned to Anhuamen on the west wing of the south of the city.And when Zheng Jinwu and his party rushed out of the Anhua Gate, they saw smoke arrows rising far away.

That is the signal to mark the situation and call for backup that only the Jinwu Guard, who is in charge of the Gyeonggi duties, can use.Therefore, as Zheng Jinwu yelled to raise his horse, at the place where the smoke arrows rose one after another, there were Wupu armored soldiers rushing out from the street in advance and shouting loudly:
"Warning for Fanluofang on Jiazuo Seventh Street, Lower Southeast District..."

"Warning for Fanluofang..."

At this time, Jiang Tian, ​​who was surrounded by the team and tried hard to control the horse to keep the distance, could already see the reflections of many armored and sword soldiers running to and fro at the corner of the street far away; Voice.However, General Zhu Bie and the others who rushed over first turned their horses back with resentment on their faces, complaining loudly in their mouths;
"It's really unlucky, it's just a few Jiangyang thieves on the list, and a group of smugglers who have become alarmed."

"It's okay, let's go to the next place."

Zheng Jinwu calmed down gently, and the mount that was already dripping with sweat under him said calmly:

Another half an hour later, in a large mule and horse market that was almost turned upside down, even the muddy ground of Ma's cattle and horse manure was dug out.In addition to discovering more than a dozen stolen official horses, Zheng Jinwu and his party also rushed to nothing, and there was inevitably a hint of anxiety on the faces of everyone.

"Since that's the case, go back to Anhuamen to change a batch of manpower and mounts, and then make plans!"

Zheng Jinwu comforted again:

However, in the midst of sighs and frustration, his words fell, and colorful smoke arrows rose again in the distance; and this time, instead of firing three consecutive arrows, five arrows of different colors were fired simultaneously.This result immediately made them on horseback, scrambling and screaming:

"It turned out to be a four-color five-link warning!"

"I'm afraid something serious will happen!"

"Could it be that the master's lair has been discovered?"

"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up, or it will be too late."

With the cavalry team speeding up again, the smoke and arrows seemed to be a long distance away, but they arrived almost in a blink of an eye under their full speed without any hesitation.But a few hundred steps away from the target, the oncoming wind faintly sent a strong smell of blood, rancidity and scorching.

Smelling this somewhat familiar smell, Jiang Tian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, showing a relieved expression.Immediately, on the bumpy horseback, he nodded vigorously to Zheng Jinwu who happened to turn his head, and saw Zheng Jinwu shouted loudly:

"All dismount, prepare in advance!"

In an instant, all the Jinwu disciples pulled their horses to the ground, and immediately took off the pouch placed behind the saddle; untied the armor tied in it, equipped the soldiers, and helped each other put it on.Just after they finished dressing up, the two long carriages that were left behind due to speeding up also followed.

As the first carriage was opened, they took out many strange-shaped instruments from it; but they were all kinds of hooks, forks, handles, Iron rake guns, and even a few wheeled shields received from the gatehouse.

At this time, Jiang Tian, ​​who couldn't help but rush forward for a certain distance, turned around again; watching them take out one after another from the second opened carriage, as if by magic, the long rope noose and the tripping rope were rolled into a bundle The Easy Refining Horse, Bucket of Lime Packs and Caltrops…

At the same time, several sergeants with mottled blood or black faces came rushing forward; they yelled at Zheng Jinwu and others:

"It came just right!"

"It's coming!"

"Er Lang can hardly hold back."

Only then did Jiang Tian notice that the leading sergeant was one of Song Boyi's subordinates.It just seemed that the situation was very bad. There were many injuries from falling and scratching on his body, and one of the sergeant's arms had been limply folded to one side.

"Zuojie Erlang, follow me." Zheng Jinwu also raised his arms and shouted: "Form an formation for cover, shout and advance."

Amidst the echoes and shouts from left and right, the Jinwu Guards, a team of hundreds of people, pushed the hub shields in front; various colored long-handled hooks, fork handles, and short spears covered the wings; The horse's soldiers were protected in the middle; the rest of the swords followed closely behind.

Then, an open-air slaughterhouse that had been emptied appeared in front of Jiang Tian and others.It's just that the ground is already in a mess, with overturned utensils and discarded objects everywhere, scattered corpses, broken swords, guns and flags, and several puddles of tar-like residue.

And many Jinwu guards who were running around shouting were surrounding a building that looked like a tall warehouse near the river.Then, under the constant encouragement and orders of the disgraced Youjie envoy Song Boyi who stood under the military flag, he threw the lit torches and incendiary objects into it;

Or holding a strong bow and crossbow that looks very sharp at first glance, radiating towards the inner door and casement one after another; It was dialed again, but it still failed to light the fire.

On the contrary, someone was too close to the building, or tried to climb or touch it from the wall; but was suddenly swung, bumped, and bitten by a black shadow that suddenly appeared, and blood was thrown or fell down. ; Then, with a lot of arrows shot indiscriminately, he retracted again.

"It's not right, I'm afraid it won't be able to attack by force, and it will only cause casualties."

Jiang Tian immediately said to Zheng Jinwu:

"Also ask Jiang Sheng to teach me."

Zheng Jinwu asked without hesitation when he heard the words:
"Since we can confirm that the ferocious beast is afraid of the sky and hides in it, let's find a way to make it come out."

Jiang Tian whispered a few words to him immediately.

At this time, Song Boyi, the envoy of the Right Street under the military flag, finally noticed the backup who had rushed over, and hurriedly said:

"Zheng Zuojie is here just in time, help brother quickly."

"It's easy to say! Let your people retreat first. Let's go!"

With Zheng Jinwu's order, those soldiers holding all kinds of odd-shaped utensils immediately formed more than a dozen teams to cover and coordinate with each other; it happened to block all possible exits of this warehouse.Other soldiers began to hack around with their knives, pushing down and overturning one shed after another.

Then, he piled up all these chopped flammable materials on a few temporary carts, and poured cans of them to get the grease on the spot.Then, under the cover of the shield and hand shield, it was suddenly pushed under the door and casement of the warehouse at the same time; then the rockets fired and ignited.

At this time, there was once again a huge black shadow that was suspected of being a ferocious beast. It suddenly leaned out to make a call, and scatter the rising flames of the car; And the rake gun, hooked and pulled the forelimbs, head and neck.

Among the dark red blood splashes, the roaring and screaming ferocious beast tried to retreat; but was pierced deeper by the iron hook and the inverted tip, and even the blood glisteningly tore away a large piece of flesh, exposing the bluish bones Come.Then, more arrows rained nails on its head and front body.

The fierce beast struggled violently and turned over in pain, patting and scratching the collapsed rammed earth beside the wall; on the contrary, it broke and tore off many restraints, but it still couldn't break free.Being pulled and pulled desperately by the people on the left and right one after another with poles and ropes, most of his body was exposed.

At this time, there were more short spears with hooks and flag guns, throwing them crosswise at the beast; it was Song Boyi, the envoy from the right street, who also reacted and brought people up to help again.With more and more wounds and blood splashing like springs, this beast, which was the size of a buffalo, was also in a difficult situation.

Suddenly, at the next moment, he loosened his strength and released his claws, and the entire huge figure was dragged out; the whole beard and tail were exposed to the skylight.The next moment, I saw his whole body twitching and wriggling violently, his skin and flesh began to roll and shrink; with pools of thick jelly flowing, eventually even the huge bones were brittle and turned into slag.

The Jinwu guards on the left and right were stunned for a moment, but they couldn't help cheering with great morale.In the midst of the cheers, in the tall and large warehouses that had already been set ablaze in several places, a huge figure suddenly shattered from the roof of the upper floor tiles; it leaped dozens of steps away with a loud roar.

However, it fell among the Jinwu guards who were deployed near the river, and they rolled, bumped, and overturned on their backs.While continuously flowing, splashing, and shaking down the black thick glue, with a smoked smoke, he fell headlong into the muddy river beach.

However, just as this ferocious beast tried its best to move its festering claws, trying to swim away; several hooked spears tied with ropes hit it one after another; immediately dragged out several blackened The bloodstains sank into the muddy riverbed that was stirred up.

At the same time, with the continuous input of bundles and piles of combustion aids, in the warehouse where the flames became more and more blazing, there were repeated whines and howls again one after another.Then, from the collapsed deflagration ruins of the upper floor, the few remaining fierce beasts struggled to emerge, and finally fell to the ground and melted under the skylight.

"It's really a pity. It took so much effort to cultivate this little wisdom."

At this moment, a boat that had gone far away on the Chanshui suddenly slowed down, but someone lifted the curtain and sighed in the direction of the faint noise:

"Let go of everything that should be let go, and let go of what should be discarded," however, another voice in the car said: "As long as the root is still in hand, it is not a complete failure. Next, we must be patient." crouched and waited."

"No, there is one last chance to see how much he knows."

The previous people said categorically:
But at this time, a large thick cloud could barely cover the originally brilliant spring sun.Among the Jinwu soldiers present, no matter it was Zheng Jinwu or Song Boyi, they all showed some kind of lucky or worried expressions.

Afterwards, the ruins of the building that had burned and collapsed were cleaned up again by Bala; a large pit that had collapsed in the ground was suddenly revealed.Then the sergeant who leaned into it let out an exclamation:

"There's still a small one hidden!"

"Wait, catch the living one."

Then, a long carriage covered with black cloth was pushed over, under the cover of a temporary tent; one was about the size of a wild boar, but its limbs were broken, and an I-shaped iron bar was wrapped around its neck and tied to one side. The living creature on the door panel; thus, it was carried into the carriage together
