Chapter 477 Assassination of Zhuge Liang
In the Central Plains, to the west of Changshe Town, Zhuge Liang led a team of troops to meet with Zhang Xutuo, the leader of the Great Sui Army.
Five hundred Zhuge crossbow soldiers, carrying specially made Zhuge crossbows, were wearing light armor, and followed Zhuge Liang's wooden wheelbarrow.
Huang Yueying was also by Zhuge Liang's side, advancing and retreating with Zhuge Liang.
"There are about 70,000 Jin troops in Changshe Town, and the Jin troops in Xuchang have at least 150,000. Our advantage lies in the fact that the troops are more elite."
Huang Yueying analyzed the situation for Zhuge Liang.
"Jiujiang King Yingbu surrendered to Sima Yi. Yingbu is extremely brave and must pay attention to it."
"Huan Wen is good at inspiring morale. Beigong Chun has a Western Liang Iron Cavalry, Yang Hu and Du Yu, both wise and brave."
Zhuge Liang counted Sima Yi's generals, and these generals were all special generals worthy of attention.
"Sima Yi has blocked the secrets in advance, and I'm afraid Sima Yi will take action recently."
Zhuge Liang knew that Sima Yi had the special ability to block the secrets of heaven, and Qimen Dunjia could no longer deduce the future.
Suddenly, Zhuge Liang's wooden wheelbarrow stopped, and something seemed to have happened in front of him.
"Sir, the wooden bridge in front is broken, and there are still refugees stranded. The soldiers are collecting wooden boats and preparing to build a floating bridge. Please wait for a while."
"Let's go and have a look."
Although Zhuge Liang had many subordinates, he was still used to doing everything himself, so he went to check out the broken bridge in front of him.
The wooden bridge above the river broke into two pieces, and the wooden piles had obvious signs of burning.
Zhuge Liang's disciple Jiang Wei inspected the broken bridge in advance. When Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying arrived, he expressed his speculation: "It should be the scout of the Jin army who set fire to destroy the wooden bridge, and wanted to delay our marching speed."
Zhuge Liang nodded.
Sima Yi sent a scout to burn the wooden bridge on the way to stop the opponent from dispatching troops. It is not impossible.
"What's going on with these refugees?"
Zhuge Liang noticed a group of refugees crowded by the bridge.
"It is said that the villagers from nearby villages were plundered by the Jin army and could only leave their hometowns. When the wooden bridge broke, they could only stay here."
"Get some food and give it to these civilians. In the Central Plains, wars continue to spread, and these civilians are suffering."
When Zhuge Liang encountered this incident, he decided to share some food for the civilians who left their hometowns to win people's hearts.
If the people are in a high position, it will be of great benefit to recruiting soldiers and grain.
Zhuge Liang's deep popularity has a lot to do with his daily compassion for the people's strength.
"These are the food that we adults kindly divide to help you."
"More adults." The refugees gathered by the river were overjoyed. "We are old people in Shu, who once received the kindness of Prime Minister Zhuge. I heard that Prime Minister Zhuge is leading troops to fight Sima Yi. If we can meet Prime Minister Zhuge again, that would be great."
"You have an old age with Mr. Zhuge?"
"Not only that, Zhuge Zhan, the son of Prime Minister Zhuge, is among our group."
"Please wait here and let us report."
A Zhuge crossbow soldier heard that Zhuge Zhan was among the refugees, so he hurried to report to Zhuge Liang.
"really?"
Zhuge Liang was a little surprised to hear that his original son appeared here.
It wouldn't be surprising if Zhuge Zhan was wandering in the Central Plains. I can only say that he would have good luck when he met Zhuge Liang at this time.
Zhuge Liang summoned this group of refugees.
"Is this our son?"
Huang Yueying and Zhuge Liang looked up and down at a man in blue. The other party looked a little dirty and covered with mud on his face.
The man in blue looked a little excited and quickly saluted: "I have seen my parents!"
Zhuge Liang and Huang Yueying looked at each other. They came here in time when they were young. They had never seen Zhuge Zhan before, and they didn't know if this person was Zhuge Zhan.
"Not good, be careful!"
Jiang Wei noticed that the man in blue had murderous aura and immediately drew his sword.
"Zhuge Liang, I'll be ordered to kill you, die!"
The assassin disguised as Zhuge Zhan suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed Zhuge Liang!
The picture shows the dagger, and this blow directly stabbed Zhuge Liang in the heart.
The moment the assassin took action, other refugees also drew their swords and attacked Zhuge Liang!
These refugees were all dead soldiers recruited by Sima Shi, who were waiting here for Zhuge Liang to pass through this place and conduct assassination!
Even Sima Yi and Sima Shi were not willing to confront Zhuge Liang, but chose to assassinate him.
If there are only one or two assassins, it is easier to be wary of, but the hundreds of refugees in front of him, regardless of men, women, age, are all Sima Shi's dead soldiers!
Sima Shi's dead soldiers looked no different from those of ordinary people, and they were hard to guard against.
They are usually civilians or butchers, and receive the kindness of Sima Shi. Only when they receive the orders of Sima Shi will they sacrifice their lives to carry out the mission.
The murderous intent suddenly appeared, and this group of refugees assassinated Zhuge Liang at the cost of death, ignoring the attacks of the surrounding guards!
It is extremely difficult to defeat Zhuge Liang's guards or to escape without permission.
But if you only kill one person without regard for casualties, the difficulty can be reduced several times!
"die!"
The face of the dead soldier who pretended to be Zhuge Zhan was distorted. In such a short time, even a first-class general might die on the spot!
Zhuge Liang's face was pale. The dead soldier was less than ten steps away from Zhuge Liang. The sunlight reflected from his sword body shone on Zhuge Liang's eyes.
The chief assassin sent by Sima Shi to assassinate Zhuge Liang, with force exceeding 85!
Moreover, the assassin even calculated the reflection of light.
The dazzling light reflected by the long sword shook Zhuge Liang's eyes, making Zhuge Liang unable to concentrate on thinking.
This is the assassin's experience.
This sword is shocking!
With Zhuge Liang's force, it is difficult to escape this sword.
"Don't hurt my husband!"
Huang Yueying blocked Zhuge Liang's body, and the crossbow machine inside the sleeve was pulled, and a sleeve-shaped crossbow arrow hit the assassin's eyes!
"ah!"
The assassin screamed, his eyes burst, and blood gushed out, which was shocking.
The assassin suffered from injury and suffered a pain, and his sword moved to the side and stabbed Huang Yueying in the arm!
Huang Yueying groaned, but the corners of her mouth rose slightly because she knew that she had saved Zhuge Liang's life.
Jiang Wei took advantage of the assassin's eye injury and took a step forward, slashed the assassin's arm holding the sword with one sword, and directly removed the assassin's arm, making it impossible for him to continue committing the murder.
The assassin wanted to struggle desperately, but Jiang Wei had another sword. The assassin vomited blood and was killed by Jiang Wei!
If you want to assassinate the enemy's chief general or military advisor, then there is only one chance.
If you fail a single blow, you will be rushed over by the guards and killed by random swords.
Other dead soldiers disguised as refugees rushed up like moths to the flames, while Huang Yueying used the arrow in her sleeve to shoot several dead soldiers in succession.
The Zhuge crossbow soldiers and other guards also reacted at this time. The guards used the Zhuge crossbows to shoot and kill the dead soldiers in front of Zhuge Liang.
Chirp!
Zhuge crossbows shot, and each Zhuge crossbow burst out ten crossbow arrows!
Five hundred Zhuge crossbows shot in a row, and the crossbow arrows shot out like a storm!
The dead soldiers sent by Sima Shi did not expect that the outbreak of the Zhuge crossbow soldiers would be so terrible. The five hundred Zhuge crossbow soldiers poured out five thousand crossbow arrows in an instant, shooting the group of dead soldiers into hedgehogs!
At such a close distance, he was poured out by five thousand crossbow arrows. Even if Sima Yi and Sima Shi arrived in person, he would be shot into a sieve.
Five hundred Zhuge crossbow soldiers broke out in one round, and all the assassins present were shot and killed by crossbows. Corpse everywhere, with crossbow arrows inserted into them, and none of them survived.
There were also assassins shot by dozens of crossbow arrows, riddled with holes.
"This is the power of Zhuge Crossbow..."
Jiang Wei saw the first time that five hundred Zhuge crossbow soldiers exploded, and a round of crossbow arrows killed all the assassins in seconds. He couldn't help but be shocked by the power of Zhuge crossbows.
Five hundred Zhuge crossbow soldiers can burst out the damage of five thousand crossbow soldiers in an instant.
Sima Yi could not have expected that Zhuge Liang had already recruited the ninth-level Zhuge crossbow soldiers.
Moreover, Zhuge Liang has Huang Yueying around him, which is also a step for Sima Shi to miscalculate.
Huang Yueying learned the improved Mohist mechanism technique and usually operated various mechanisms. There was a small crossbow hidden in her sleeve, which was beyond Sima Shi's expectations.
"Yueying, are you okay?"
When Zhuge Liang saw that Huang Yueying was injured in order to protect himself, he couldn't help feeling distressed.
"It's just a minor injury. Although the assassin's sword is coated with poison, I have a way to resolve this toxin."
Huang Yueying disagreed. As long as he could protect Zhuge Liang, even if he was injured, it would be insignificant.
Huang Yueying took out the antidote he usually prepared and bandaged the wound.
"These people are likely to be dead soldiers raised by Sima Shi Yin. If Sima Shi's dead soldiers dare to hurt you, I will capture them."
The elegant and easy-going Zhuge Liang was rarely angry because Huang Yueying was injured.
