Will Ming

Chapter 650

Since the Yanyun army surrounded Chang'an City, the number of patrols in the city has increased from one batch every hour to once every half an hour. Almost as soon as the patrolling soldiers in front walked over, the patrolling troops behind came up again.You must know that the people patrolling the city are not only sent by the city defense army, but also people from the Yamen of Jingzhao Yin and the Yamen of Bingbeifu.A curfew was enforced five days ago, and people were not allowed to leave their homes at will, otherwise the soldiers patrolling the city had the right to kill them directly.

Picking a remote place or their own home during the day, the people can use the siege of King Yan as a conversation piece of entertainment, but at night, no one dares to test whether the Tang Dynasty's ban is really effective.

Jing Zhaoyin has a relatively small number of official errands, one team for every fifty people, and two teams are on duty every night.In fact, there are not more than a dozen or twenty real official servants, and the rest are the helpers raised by these official servants.These people are basically rogues on the street, relying on official positions as backers to bully ordinary people more blatantly on weekdays.But after all, this place is under the feet of the emperor, and they dare not be too presumptuous.

In the past few days when the Yanyun army besieged the city, these people restrained a lot after the ban in the palace came down.They don't need to be explained by the people above, and they will never commit suicide at this time.In case the people's anger is aroused at this juncture, the furious emperor ordered them all to be skinned?

Catcher Shihu is an authentic Chang'an man. His father was also a senior official of the fourth rank in the Sui Dynasty, but he had no real power. It's more than doubled.Anyway, if he went out for a while, the filial money collected by the people of Chang'an City was enough for him to spend a lot of time.

He has more than forty disciples to help him, all of them are middle-aged men in their 30s and [-]s.They are idle on weekdays, and although they are all energetic this time, they are still listless in the middle of the night with their heads drooping.They have the spirit to spend half the night in brothels and gambling houses, but how can there be any interest in the drudgery of patrolling the city?

After midnight, Shi Hu walked slowly on the street with his people, and had to get up to make another round of inspection when it was dawn, so everyone was a little depressed.

"Master"

His disciple, Sun Erbao, came over, took off the wine bag from his waist and handed it to Shi Hu flatteringly: "Drink a sip of wine to refresh yourself. In the middle of the night, the people are all asleep, so nothing will happen."

Shi Hu wanted to reprimand him at first, but thinking that no one would notice when the patrol team of the city defense army passed by, he simply took it and took a gulp.

"All of you, give me some fucking energy. If something goes wrong when we are on duty, let alone me, even the lord is not easy to explain. Now at this juncture, who will tell me? I will destroy his three clans if I cause trouble. You are all the same, be honest these days. Those households who owed gambling debts should not go to press anymore. If there is a life lawsuit, the Lord Fu is furious, so I will pull you out. skin."

"Master, don't worry, we are not fools."

Sun Erbao is the smartest of all his disciples, and he is also the most favored.He is more daring to speak than other senior brothers, and of course, he respects his master Shi Hu the most on weekdays.

"Damn it!"

Shi Hu took another sip of wine and suddenly cursed, not knowing who made him angry.Everyone didn't dare to ask, and everyone followed behind, not daring to vent their anger.

"First the King of Qin, then the King of Yan..."

Shi Hu spat and muttered, "I really don't know what those big shots think. If they surrender today, they will rebel tomorrow. If they change their minds, we will suffer accordingly!"

"That's it!"

Sun Erbao echoed: "This is the matter of the Tian family. If it were my son, I would have broken his leg."

"To shut up!"

Shi Hu was startled, and then furiously said: "You dare to say such nonsense!"

Just as he was about to give his disciple a mouthful, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from a distance. The voice was very thin, and it was by no means someone from the patrolling city defense army.

Shi Hu immediately gestured, and the forty or so men stopped immediately.He listened for a while, and after confirming that the voice came from an alley not far away, he pointed, and the hooligans immediately ran towards it.There was nothing to do in the middle of the night, and they were all sluggish as if they were addicted to drugs. There was a movement, and they all regained their energy.

More than a dozen people stayed beside Shi Hu, and the others rushed into the alley energetically.According to Shi Hu's order, these hooligans did not make any noise.Even if something happens, you can't make it public, you can't shout, try to solve it quietly as much as possible. This is the order of the Lord Fujun, and Shi Hu naturally dare not disobey.The group of his disciples are like a fart in his eyes, and he is not much better than a fart in the eyes of Mr. Fujun.

After more than [-] people rushed into the alley, they didn't make a cry, which made Shi Hu quite satisfied.There were no other sounds other than the sound of footsteps, indicating that this group of guys still obeyed their own words.A sense of accomplishment welled up spontaneously, and Shi Hu enjoyed the good taste of power and status at this moment.It was precisely because of what he thought of at this moment that he couldn't help but think again, if he reached the height of Lord Fu Jun, would the things he would enjoy be more fascinating?If it comes to the emperor...

He didn't dare to think about what happened next, the thought had already taken him by surprise.But when he thought about it, the emperor thought that he might be more troubled than himself, and he calmed down again.

After waiting for a while when the subordinates who had entered the alley came back, Shi Hu gradually frowned: "Don't let anything happen, let's go over and have a look, and show me the knives. If there is something wrong, don't care who it is, I told you to chop it up." If you do, swing your knives at me!"

"understood!"

"rest assured!"

His subordinates responded eagerly for a while, and they rushed into the alley quickly.The light of the torch quickly dispelled the darkness in the alley...

Shi Hu was startled, what about the twenty or so men who came in just now?Where are the torches?Why are you gone?

……

……

A large group of people dressed in black suddenly poured in from the entrance of the alley, their footsteps were like civet cats without making a sound.Each of them had a black, extremely sharp iron rod in their hands, without a torch, and they appeared from behind the crowd like ghosts, and started killing people very quickly.

The twenty or so people who entered the alley before had all turned into lonely ghosts. Dozens of men in black robes were hiding on the walls of the dark alley. The robes were wide and the black scarves covered their faces. They were all hidden in the night. It's hardly noticeable.As soon as Shihu's people entered the alley, they saw a skinny old man smirking at them. When they were astonished, the black robed man on the wall jumped down like a hawk, and quickly stabbed these people to death one by one. It was so fierce that it only pierced the throat, so that the twenty or so of them didn't even have time to shout.

After the killing, these men in black robes quickly threw the corpses over the wall, then turned over and jumped up the wall to hide.After Shi Hu rushed in with his people, he saw nothing, not even blood.Just when he was surprised, those ghostly men in black robes appeared again, this time from behind them.

The black-robed man stuck up silently, covered the mouths of the thugs from behind, and pierced their throats with an iron rod.After four or five people in the back fell to the ground, Shi Hu in front realized something was wrong.He turned around sharply, and saw that those ghost-like men in black had already killed half of his men.

"Varied……"

Only half a syllable came out of his throat, and a crossbow bolt precisely penetrated into his throat.He stretched out his hand and tried to grab something, but in the end he could only fall down limply.

More than a dozen people were slaughtered in an instant.

The old man who looked ridiculously thin walked over with a smile and ordered people to change his clothes quickly.The men in black robes swiftly stripped off the clothes from the dead body. Before they could finish their work, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside the alley.The skinny old man's expression changed, and he gestured for his subordinates to be alert.Before the people were arranged, at least one team of city defense soldiers blocked the entrance of the alley, and the leading man walked towards them holding the horizontal knife handle.

"It's so fucking slow. I led someone to knock out a team of elite city defense troops. You have to deal with dozens of rogues so hard!"

The man in the army uniform said something in a cold voice, and walked up to the torch showing a pale face.

"Scary people will scare people to death! With your white face, you look like a fucking ghost!"

Wang Qinian, who was as thin as a bamboo pole, glared at the white-faced Wu Bushan, and then asked in surprise, "Why are you moving so fast?"

Wu Bushan smiled cheaply and said: "It just so happened that this team of city defense troops smashed the door of my shop and asked me to steam buns for him to make supper... If I don't poison, I'm sorry for the conscience of heaven and earth."

"Okay, don't talk about it, move quickly, so that the people of the city defense army can't find out. We don't have enough time, we set fire and run away, and then disappear! That fat man is still waiting for our signal, this matter After all, we just cooperate in major matters, and he is the key!"

Wang Qinian waved his hand, turned around and told his subordinates: "After calculating the time, turn around and go directly to the yamen, enter the gate, cut down the staff on duty, set fire to it, and then run away immediately, if any of you lose your legs slowly, you will fall into the hands of Tang Jun Here, you wish for happiness."

Wu Bushan sighed and said, "When it comes to running, I'm afraid no one in this world can compare to you except that fat man."

"Fuck off!"

Wang Qinian scolded: "Don't compare Yushu Linfeng's old man with that ugly fat man. This is an insult to me and a compliment to him."

Wu Bushan looked at Wang Qinian helplessly and said seriously: "You know, I will never insult or praise you two even if I get my head pinched by the door, because you two never take being insulted seriously, as for praise ...you know I seldom do anything unconscionable..."
