【Chapter 627】There are assassins!
On Chinese New Year's Eve, there were gunshots? That's a big deal!
If the gunshots sounded elsewhere in the city, or outside the city, Xu Xingxia would not have taken it to heart. The gunshots coming from those places naturally have special troops to deal with them. However, the gunshots rang out inside the Qin Palace. That's serious. What does this mean? It means that there are assassins!
"Assassin!"
"There are assassins!"
Sure enough, someone screamed!
"Bang!"
"Bang"
"Bang!"
Soon, more gunshots were heard.
The nearest gunshot was less than fifty meters away from Xu Xingxia.
Xu Xingxia's reaction was still quite fast, he immediately turned over and got out of bed, put on a dress, blew out the candle in one gulp, and then walked quickly to the door, first checked the doors and windows, and after being sure that there was no problem, he hid behind the pillar and listened carefully to the movement outside. The room was pitch black, and there were pillars blocking it, even if an assassin rushed in, he couldn't find Xu Xingxia's location. Shooting at a long distance can only be a pure waste of ammunition.
The footsteps outside, a little chaotic, should be the female guards under Tessna, who are reinforcing the place where the gunshots are fired. This time, Tesna herself did not come to Xi'an City, but her guards came a lot. The person in charge of leading the team was a woman named Gu Susu. She is Tessna's number one general, from a small, unknown tribe.
For this Gu Susu, Xu Xingxia is also quite trusting. Of course, this is not because of Gu Susu's beauty, or her other talents. Purely because her family, as well as her people, were all in the Black Mountain camp. If she has anything that she can't do with Xu Xingxia, her family and clansmen will all be wiped out. Such a binding of interests is much more effective than a bloody alliance.
"Tuk Tuk!"
Suddenly, there was a rhythmic knock on the door.
Xu Xingxia lowered his voice and said, "Who?" Bright moonlight in front of the bed. ”
A woman's voice outside said, "Li Bai wants to drink soup." My lord, it's me. ”
It was Gu Susu, the female guard captain who led the team, who spoke. Xu Xingxia opened the door, and no one came in outside the door, just handed Xu Xingxia an iron tire bow and a quiver, and there were twelve black feather arrows in the quiver. This is Xu Xingxia's self-defense weapon, and it is also the foundation of his fame. Basically, with such a weapon in hand, Xu Xingxia is fearless.
Purely in terms of archery, Mo Yuegen, the Tatar arrow god in the past, was not Xu Xingxia's opponent, let alone others. Therefore, no matter how many assassins came, Xu Xingxia was not in any danger. Even if the assassin rushed in front of Xu Xingxia, he would only be slaughtered. Gu Susu is also very relieved of Xu Xingxia's kung fu. After handing the bow and arrow to Xu Xingxia, he went to deal with the assassin's affairs himself.
You don't want to say that you carried a musket to assassinate Xu Xingxia from a distance. This is absolutely impossible. Whether it is a rifled gun or a smoothbore gun, it can only be fired once. misses a blow, and what awaits him is definitely the fate of the five horses. Under the current state of technology, anyone who uses a musket as a tool for assassination is definitely impatient.
Muskets, in the final analysis, must be used intensively on a large scale in order to obtain the best results. Under the current circumstances, the number of Assassins could never be more than three. What is this place? This is the Qin Palace! It's a place surrounded by chasseurs! You think it's a vegetable market, you can come and go freely. Don't say that you can still lurk snipers in the Qin Palace, and kill Xu Xingxia with one shot from a distance. If that's the case, Liu Chuang and his three thousand chasseurs can all die.
In fact, at this time, the gunfire outside had completely subsided. There was just a constant rush of hurried, slightly messy footsteps. The people who should be the chasers were also alarmed and were entering the core area of the Qin Palace's mansion to assist in the defense. The purpose of their arrival was no longer to prevent the assassins from assassinating Xu Xingxia, but to hunt down the assassins' accomplices who had not yet been killed. At the same time, all the scenes are cordoned off to preserve the original evidence for the subsequent investigation. Once the gunshots rang out, no matter how many assassins there were, it would be impossible to get close to Xu Xingxia's side.
Soon, Xu Xingxia could feel that Gu Susu and the other female guards had retreated to a place thirty feet outside his house. The gate of the triple courtyard was also heavily closed. All those who want to enter must be strictly checked for identity and have all weapons removed. This is the core of the security process. No matter how chaotic it is outside, Xu Xingxia's side can't be messy. Confusion inevitably leads to mistakes, that's a rule of thumb. And, crucially, at this time, no stranger should come close.
Don't think that the chassars are coming to reinforce them, so you can put them next to Xu Xingxia and adopt crowd tactics. Don't think that it will be safe if there are 3,000 musketeers to protect Xu Xingxia at close range. In fact, this is very wrong. Even, it can be fatal. Who can guarantee that there will be no assassins in the Chasseurs? After all, there are 3,000 chasseurs, and you can't guarantee that there will be no problems with everyone.
Gu Susu came to the door of Xu Xingxia's room and said in a low and cautious report: "My lord, there are three assassins in total, and they have all been killed. One of our female guards was killed and one was wounded, and there was no danger to life. The scene outside has been handed over to the chasseurs to deal with. At present, the palaces of the Qin Dynasty have all been blocked, and Xi'an City is also secretly under martial law. ”
Xu Xingxia nodded and said with satisfaction: "Very good, your handling techniques are very skillful, which is worthy of praise." All the aftermath work should be handled in accordance with the pre-defined procedures. By the way, the West Courtyard should block the news as much as possible, and don't let them know, so as not to worry them. If they ask, you won't be able to tell you the details. When the time comes, I will explain it to them personally. ”
Gu Susu agreed, turned around and went.
"The bright moonlight in front of the bed, Li Bai wants to drink soup? What kind of poem is this? ”
Uyunna's voice suddenly came. As soon as the gunshots rang out, she was naturally awakened. In fact, her reaction speed is not slow. She turned out to be a very athletic Mongolian woman, and she had good attainments in both riding and archery. At the beginning, the white-clothed army also spent a lot of effort to capture her alive. It's just that she was tortured by Xu Xingxia just now and has no strength, and there is a faint pain in the most delicate place, and she can't do drastic movements.
However, when the clothes on her body were rudely taken off by Xu Xingxia, she didn't know where she threw them, and she couldn't find them in the dark. I finally found it, but I found that it was made like a mess by Xu Xingxia, and I had to carefully get it fit before I could put it on. As a result, just getting dressed is a noticeable delay and a lot of time.
By the time everything was dealt with, the Assassins had been killed. Bored, she simply sat on the edge of the bed and waited for the situation to develop. Suddenly hearing the conversation between Xu Xingxia and Gu Susu, she suddenly felt weird, and she had doubts in her heart. The bright moonlight in front of the bed, Li Bai wants to drink soup? What verse is this? Such a crooked poem, can you still get it? If others hear it, don't die of laughter. No matter how thick-skinned people are, they probably can't stop it.
However, such crooked poems, used as codes, are really terrible. It is estimated that no clever assassin can come up with such a code. Subconsciously, ten out of ten will answer incorrectly. This Xu Xingxia is simply a freak. He is a pervert in a woman's body, and he is also a pervert in ordinary life. At this time, the turmoil subsided, and she couldn't help but ask. How did he come up with these strange things?
"The bright moonlight in front of the bed, Li Bai wants to drink soup. Drank a bowl of soup and peed a crotch. It was said that the incense burner produced purple smoke, and Li Bai came to the roast duck restaurant. The saliva is 3,000 feet, and there is no money in a pocket. I will not regret the wide clothes and untie them, and I will make people haggard for Yi. He dang cut the candles in the west window together, and the husband and wife sat together until dawn......" Xu Xingxia casually read a few crooked poems of later generations. If you want to say what is the biggest benefit of the traverser, it is estimated that it is the poetry and song of the pirated descendants.
It's a pity that the era in which he lived was a troubled era. He was also from a military family, and he only dealt with swords, guns, swords, and halberds, and things like poetry and songs, which was really not next to him. Otherwise, the famous poems of later generations would have been pirated by him long ago. But fortunately, in some details, he can still pirate future generations. For example, these crooked poems were used as a contact code, so that all the assassins could not figure out their heads.
When did Wuyunna hear such a crooked poem, she was stunned for a moment. This perverted Xu Xingxia has a really different brain. No matter what kind of verses, they have been changed beyond recognition by him, and they are unsightly. But it sounds reasonable. Especially the best sentence, it is simply a portrayal of her and Xu Xingxia now.
At this time, she and Xu Xingxia had just finished being husband and wife, and now they were silently staying in the room, wasn't this a husband and wife sitting until dawn? Whether she admits it or not, her people already belong to Xu Xingxia. Unless Xu Xingxia died, or he took the initiative to let go, otherwise, she had absolutely no possibility of escaping from him. Judging from the current development momentum of the White Army, she and Xu Xingxia, a husband and wife, are afraid that it will be really long.
The word husband and wife should have been a very sacred word. Before, Uyunna thought so too. She has always felt that her Lang Jun should be one of the most outstanding men. Even if it is Lin Dan Khan, she may not be very satisfied. It's a pity that all this has completely changed with the arrival of the white-clothed army. Now she has no choice at all. She, Wuyunna, in this life, and Xu Xingxia are husband and wife.
