The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 218 Assassin
"Master Su, it must be that barbarian, King Chen!" A man wearing a bamboo hat disappeared into the dense reeds, and whispered to the man with a horse face.

A look of joy flashed across the latter's face, and he said cautiously: "Have you looked carefully?"

"Biaoxia met him in Shaowu," the man returned, "and these people mentioned a lot of 'fiefdom' in their words just now, they must be right!"

This person was originally one of Du De's subordinates. He was captured by the Ming army before and then escaped in the chaos.Su Yangcha was ecstatic in his heart, the prey really dozed off, but this barbarian King Chen only brought six guards, what a godsend!

He ordered his subordinates to gather together, and said in a deep voice: "After the Shanguan battle, we are the only ones left. If we miss, then Lord Baylor will...

"There are only seven barbarians. Later, Erhe will lead five people to surround the guards, and the others will surround the barbarian King Chen with me.

"Remember, you must catch someone alive before you can use him to replace Lord Baylor!"

He paused for a moment, drew out his single knife, and said fiercely: "If it is really impossible to capture him alive, then kill him and take revenge for Lord Baylor!"

"Whoo!"

A group of Jian captives each held their swords, carefully pushed aside the reeds, and went quietly towards the target.

……

It was early summer, and the weather in Fujing was quite hot. Even though it was approaching evening, I was still sweating profusely after staying in the small guest room of the inn.

Therefore, as long as there is no night duty, almost no one is willing to stay in the station, especially the Jinxi near Jiangle County, which is the first choice for everyone to enjoy the cool air.

The night wind blows over the reeds that are two people tall, making a rustling sound, and the fragrance of reed leaves blows on people's body, which is very cool.

"Miss, when we arrive at Tianxing Mansion this time, what kind of official do you think the court will appoint you?" A little girl in a green shirt shook the reed pole in her hand, and said to Zhen Zhen with a smile on her face, "Will you be allowed to do so?" Generalissimo of soldiers and horses?"

"Zi Lu, you have been with me for so long, how come you don't even know the official position of the Ming Dynasty, and you are still the Marshal of the army?" Zhen Zhen was dressed in a neat military uniform. Although it was cool by the river, there was still fragrant sweat on her temples. , "Maybe I can be promoted to the rank of general."

"Participant..." Zi Lu is usually in charge of Zhen Zhen's daily life. Most of her understanding of military positions comes from dramas. She blinked and said, "Who is older than the Zhongzhou Marquis in Shu?" The Zhongzhou Marquis she was talking about was Qin Liangyu, the first female general in the late Ming Dynasty.

"Don't talk nonsense, how can I compare with General Qin?" Zhen Zhen rolled her eyes and sighed softly, "But this time, His Highness has been awarded the title of Ganzhou, and after the battle is over, it is very close to see him. I don't know Where is he going to set up the palace?"

"Tsk tsk, 'His Royal Highness'? That's a very friendly call..." Zi Lu teased, raising her nose.

"You damn girl!"

Zhen Zhen made a gesture to hit her, but Zi Lu smiled and begged for forgiveness, then hurriedly changed the subject and said, "By the way, what are you looking for at the military stove this afternoon?"

Zhen Zhen's pretty face blushed slightly, she withdrew her raised hand, and said seriously: "Zi Lu, do you know how to stew duck soup?"

"Yes, miss, do you want to drink duck soup? I'll stew it for you tomorrow."

"No no, I want you to teach me how to make soup."

"Oh?" Zi Lu's eyes widened, and she wondered, "Our young lady has always been far away from the pot, how can she sing today?"

"You care? Just teach me."

The little maid pretended to be serious, "If you don't tell me, I won't teach."

"you……"

"Either you go to Master Liu to teach you, hee hee."

"I came to you because I didn't like Uncle Liu's cooking skills..."

Zi Lu held back her smile and squinted at her young lady, "Then tell me."

Zhen Zhen couldn't resist her, looked around carefully, pursed her lips and said, "Tell me, will it seem inappropriate for me to cook some soup for His Highness?"

"Ha, what did I say..." Zi Lu immediately smirked complacently.

……

"Shh..."

Zhu Linmi and Zhang Jiayu were walking when they saw Shi Lin leaning forward, motioning for everyone to be silent.

"Be careful, someone is coming."

Shi Lin had been fighting in the frontier for many years, and he had acquired an extremely keen vigilance, so although the others did not hear any movement, they still retreated to the edge of the Jinxi according to his order, and let the reeds cover their figures.

After a while, I saw two figures coming along the bank, they were Zhen Zhen and her maid.

Zhu Linmi breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to go forward to greet her, when she heard the conversation between the two girls, she couldn't help but stop.

"Don't make trouble, speak carefully." Zhen Zhen tried hard to be serious, "Recently His Highness has been staying up late in the car every day to write official cases. I think he looks tired and is getting thinner." She suddenly felt something wrong, and hurriedly said, "Chen Wang Your Highness is the pillar of our Polu camp, we must not be exhausted, and Liu Bo can only cook in a big pot, so I thought about making some soup to help him..."

"Laoya ginseng soup is the most suitable, and it is my specialty." Zilu still had a smirk on her face, "As for whether to give it or not, or should Miss ask His Royal Highness Chen Wang for advice?"

"You bad hoof!"

"Oh, someone hit Master..."

Zhang Jiayu, Shi Lin and the others could also hear clearly, and couldn't help covering their mouths and giggling.Zhu Linmi's face was full of embarrassment, she would blush when she appeared at this moment, she had no choice but to wave her hand to signal that everyone should still hide in the reeds.

Unexpectedly, he waved his hand a little too much, and the back of his hand was cut by the edge of a reed leaf, which made him subconsciously take a breath, "Hiss——"

Ten steps away, Zhen Zhen stopped suddenly, raised his hand on the swift sword at his waist, swept his beautiful eyes around, and said loudly: "Who? Come out for me!"

Su Yangcha frowned. Seeing that the barbarian King Chen had come towards him, he suddenly disappeared into the reeds. At this time, someone shouted "Come out". Could it be that his whereabouts have been exposed?
So what if it's exposed? !There are more than 20 Jianzhou warriors on my side, and they are only a dozen steps away from the Nanren.

Thinking of this, he single-handedly waved his sword and shouted: "Give it to me!"

Immediately, a group of people with knives took advantage of the moonlight to rush straight to the hiding place of Zhu Linmi and others.

After rushing a few steps, Su Yangcha caught a glimpse of Zhen Zhen and Zhen Zhen from the corner of their eyes. Seeing that they were wearing military uniforms, with swords on their waists and hips, they immediately grabbed two of their subordinates and pointed at Zhen Zhen, "Go and deal with them!"

"Whoo!"

One moment Zhu Linmei was thinking about how to get through the embarrassing situation in front of her, and the next moment she heard shouts of killing, and a large group of people suddenly poured out by the river, their appearance was obviously not kind.

Shi Lin immediately drew out his sword and shouted: "Protect Your Excellency!" He was the first to block in front of Zhu Linmi.

The rest of the soldiers also held swords and lined up in a semicircle to protect King Chen.

"Assassin?" Zhu Linmei frowned secretly, took out the spring-loaded short gun from her waist, quickly wound up the spring, and held it forward.However, it was troublesome to reload this spring wheel gun. It can be said that he only had one shot.

The number of assassins is obviously much more, they are not like in martial arts movies, they fight with you one by one, more than 20 people are divided into front, back, left, and right in an instant.
