Chapter 316: Red Owl
Ah Jian didn't know the identity of the other party, but the other party was well prepared and ruthless, which obviously proved that the other party knew their identity, and it was by no means an ordinary mountain bandit.
Ah Jian was not alarmed, and there was no panic at all when he encountered an enemy attack, which was compared with the countless tests of life and death he had experienced, it could indeed only be regarded as a pediatric, although the number of the other party was several times more than his side, but Ah Jian was not afraid, stuck to the outside of the carriage, and fought and retreated.
The movement outside the car had already alarmed Deng Ai, and he asked in a deep voice, "What happened?" ”
"Mr. Qiyu Ai, there is an assassin sneak attack! However, Mr. Ai, please rest assured, I swear to protect the safety of Mr. Ai, please sit less with peace of mind. Ah Jian replied as he stabbed to death a man in black who rushed up.
Deng Ai couldn't help frowning, it stands to reason that Deng Ai went to Xiangwu this time, even in the Shu army, it is also an extremely confidential matter, there are few people in the know, Liao Liao, but now he encountered an assassin on the way, obviously the other party was prepared, it was not an accident, and the goal was to put himself to death.
Deng Ai has been on the battlefield all his life, what kind of wind and waves have not been seen, in other words, others have long been shaking like chaff, but Deng Ai is calm, he pulled the sword in his hand, lifted the curtain, jumped out of the carriage, and sneered: "The old man wants to see who ate the bear's heart and leopard gall and wants to fight the old man's idea here." ”
Once in Longyou, Deng Ai was the power of the four wilderness to call for wind and rain, and now as soon as he stepped on the land of Longyou, he would be assassinated by unknown people, which made Deng Ai very angry.
The men in black saw Deng Ai appear. There was a fierce glint in his eyes. Desperately rushing over.
Although Deng Ai used to be a commander in strategy. However, his own martial arts have never been wasted, and because of his long years of martial arts, the man in his sixties has more energy than the average young man, standing side by side with Ah Jian, wielding a sword and killing a black-clothed assassin.
However, the overall situation is still that Deng Ai Ajian is relatively passive, these men in black are very difficult, and as Deng Ai's side of the guards becomes fewer and fewer, the situation begins to become critical.
Ah Jian made a quick decision. Prepare to force a breakthrough.
At this moment, a sudden influx of soldiers from the direction of Xiangwu surrounded them and ordered them to lay down their weapons.
In an instant, the situation changed, and the two groups of people who were still fighting to the death were suddenly surrounded at this moment, but Deng Ai Ajian and they had no intention of laying down their weapons, and those black-clothed people did not want to lay down their weapons, but the battle between the two sides could only be temporarily stopped.
It was Longxi Taishou who came with the troops. He was on a routine tour outside the city when he suddenly received a report. It is said that there are people fighting with weapons near Shili Pavilion in the south of the city, and there have been incidents of Qiang and Hu people violating the border recently, and Xian Hong only thought that it was Qiang and Hu causing trouble, so he immediately led his troops to surround this place.
"Catch them all for me, dare to spread wild on the territory of Ben Taishou, you are really tired of being crooked!" He led his horse forward and laughed proudly.
However, his laughter stopped abruptly halfway, because his gaze fell on Deng Ai's body just right, and Xianhong was stunned on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning.
Deng Ai smiled calmly and said, "Ziyi, don't come to harm?" ”
Lian Hong rolled off the horse, threw himself at Deng Ai's feet, and said silently: "Teacher, is it really you?" When the students heard the bad news, they wept and wept, and God took pity on each other, and today there is a day for Hong to meet his teacher. ”
Deng Ai said: "Yin Ping Dao was lucky not to die that day, so he had the opportunity to return to Longxi to meet you." But before he arrived in Xiangwu, he was attacked by this group of black-clothed people, if it wasn't for Ziyi coming in time, you and I would really be separated forever. ”
Zhan Hong stood up, looked at those men in black, and said angrily: "Bold fanatics, dare to kill the governor, come and take them all!" ”
Zhan Hong came out to inspect this time, at least brought a song of 500 people and horses, and had already surrounded this place inside and outside three layers of water, and Zhan Hong gave an order, and the Longxi soldiers waved their knives and guns, and they stepped forward to take people.
The men in black tried to resist, but the leader signaled them to surrender and give up. The leader handed over the weapon in his hand, but he took a big step forward proudly, and directly tore off the black scarf covering his face.
"Ling Sima? How could it be you? Xian Hong was stunned for a moment, the person in front of him was not an outsider, it was Sima Linggang of Longxi, maybe ordinary people don't know Ling Gang, but Zhan Hong, as the Taishou of Longxi, has had a lot of dealings with Sima Linggang of the Army, and it can be said that the familiar can not be more familiar.
Different from the military academy lieutenants and military commanders in the Shu State, the military commanders in the Wei State have semi-public positions, and their main responsibility is to eliminate the enemy's espionage activities in their own country, and they often need to get the cooperation of the government and the army, so as the low-level military marquis may not be known, but as a middle and high-level agent, they are in contact with high-ranking officials like the Assassin Shi County Shou.
At the same time, because the military division of the intermittent military department enjoys the privilege of secretly playing to the province of Zhongshu, this makes the county guards of the assassin history quite jealous, so although the rank of the military commander is far lower than that of the county guard of 2,000 stones, no one dares to despise it.
After Chen Guang got the instruction of the blue bird, he immediately rushed to Xiangwu with a whip and a small road, Deng Ai and his party were disguised as a business traveler, walked slowly, and stayed on the road for a night, Chen Guang's speed was comparable to a six-hundred-mile urgent stagecoach, as soon as the day dawned, he had already rushed to Xiangwu and met his top boss Chixiao.
Red Owl is the code name within the Military Division, and his real name is Ling Gang. Ling Gang attached great importance to the information sent back by the blue bird, and Ling Gang had no right to check the information sealed by the fire paint, so he immediately arranged for his henchmen to be sent to the Luoyang military headquarters quickly, as for the assassination of Deng Ai mentioned by the blue bird, Ling Gang did not dare to slack off, and immediately gathered people to set up an ambush in the Shili Pavilion.
As the leader of the Longxi Military Division, Ling Gang was still able to mobilize abundant human resources, and at that moment he mobilized more than 60 good men and rushed to the woods near Shili Pavilion to ambush him, until after noon, he saw Deng Ai's chariots and horses coming.
Originally, he planned to wait for Deng Ai's chariot and horse to approach, and then kill him by surprise, but for some reason, it aroused the vigilance of the Shu people, and seeing that they had the intention of escaping, Ling Gang immediately decided to kill him, trapping Deng Ai and the others in groups.
