Chapter 524: Assassin strikes
This year's harvest is very good, so this year's end-of-year money and grain rewards are not only for the Phoenix Corps, but also for hundreds of thousands of troops. The money is distributed on the spot, but the cloth and food are specially appointed by the government in the city with a small ticket. The supplier can receive it, and of course it can be replaced with other equivalent things.
At present, the business area in Li Yunfei's control area is very developed, and transactions are also very active. Of course, the most active one is the Lujiang New Town. Although there are many residential buildings still under construction, the commercial street here has already begun to take shape. It is a miracle to build a large city in one year. Of course, if you talk about the number of people who will build it, it will be easier to understand. The construction of hundreds of thousands of people is of course extremely fast.
In addition, most of the houses built now are built with blue bricks and cement. There is no need to make any foundations for two or three-story houses, and they can be erected on the ground with a little tamping.
Sitting in the carriage back to Wancheng, there were two people when we went, and two people when we came back, but they became Xiao Qiao, but Xiaobu said that he would stay in the military camp for a day and have a good reminiscence with Miss Qi'er. But this little Qiao was ordered to go to Lujiang City to collect supplies...
I don't know how that ghost girl persuaded Xiaobu to stay, then Thirty-Six, and then Xiao Qiao. Anyway, when she entered the carriage, she saw Xiao Qiao sitting there tenderly. Li Yunfei was also embarrassed. It would be too contrived to drive people off.
The two were swaying around in the carriage. Maybe Xiao Qiao was really interested in him, so he always approached a little unconsciously. Of course, Li Yunfei would not avoid this kind of thing, and he approached in a gentlemanly manner. Let her lean over in the past. You are leaning against me and I am sticking to you, both of them are tacit, it feels really old and exciting.
But it doesn't seem to be very good to not talk all the time. After all, I am a man and an officer, so I can't let the little girl speak first.
"...Xiao Qiao, I was really surprised to see you and Qi'er compete in swordsmanship today. I didn't expect you to be not only beautiful, but also so good at swordsmanship." He picked up a random topic and started talking. As for that swordsmanship, it is indeed a bit surprising to say that this beauty's basic skills in swordsmanship are really good. Of course, Lu Lingqi deliberately let her show off.
"In front of the general, how dare you talk about swordsmanship with these flower fists and embroidered legs!"
"There's no need to belittle yourself. I taught Qi'er's swordsmanship. You can fight against him with dozens of moves undefeated. It's already very powerful." He praised the opponent's hand but naturally put it on her shoulder. Li Yunfei's movements made way for Xiao Qiao, who was still quite nervous. After putting this hand on her shoulder, she avoided it a bit, which made Li Yunfei a little embarrassed, and hurriedly withdrew her hand. It was all caused by me and Xiaobu in the car when I came over in the morning. .
"...That's just a humility of the young lady. I don't want the slave family to lose too much. If you really fight for life and death, maybe the three moves can't stop it." Seeing Li Yunfei withdrew his hand, he took the initiative to get closer, and let Li Yunfei be at ease. It's really uncomfortable.
"That's not necessarily true. If it's a life-and-death struggle, as long as you dare to go all out, even if your opponent is very strong, you will still be afraid. Qi'er's speed is only 20% faster than yours, and you can't win."
"General, the slave family still has something to say, can you tell me, general?"
"Well, let's hear it, I'll tell you what I can say!"
"The slave family has practiced swords since she was a child, and she is serious about it. It stands to reason that I am one year older than the young lady, and the speed should not be slower than her, but why is the young lady still a lot faster than the slave family?" Xiao Qiao When he spoke, he unknowingly got a lot closer. This feeling of being detached is really attractive. This girl really has mastered this trick quite well. She deliberately avoided it just now, and now she is approaching it.
"...Actually, I have a kind of qigong, which can only be given to my own people. After learning it for a long time, I can fully improve the basic quality of the human body, including strength and speed!" Li Yunfei did not lie to the other party.
After years of continuous improvement and transformation, the basic internal strength has become comparable to the world's top magic power, so it really only passes through the person he trusts the most. Of course, this magic power is best combined with a basic medicinal effect. will be better.
"...General, does the slave family..." Xiao Qiao hesitated for a while and then got closer. When she really wanted to find a way to get that qigong, she suddenly hugged Li Yunfei and pressed it to the bottom. She wanted to be nervous for a while. Screaming and not daring to scream, the first reaction is that this one has to use force on himself.
What if he really used the strong ones? So brave, if you want to use a strong one, it seems that you can only obey, and I don't know if it will hurt the first time...
"Thirty-six is ready to stop, there is murder ahead!"
"No!" Thirty-six stopped the car without asking why.
"Xiao Qiao, you are also unlucky, but you were in the same car with me, but it was a disaster. In such a safe place, you will encounter an assassin. You should lie down later!" He patted Xiao Qiao on the back and said. After saying a word, she got out of the carriage, regardless of her blushing face.
I don't know how many assassins there will be. If there is one less person, it can be easily done. If there are more, you can only run away. It is very likely that the assassins sent by Jingzhou.
"Master, what should we do? Should we rush over or go back to Miss?"
"Of course it's impossible to rush over. If they make a hole or something, they won't be caught alive. As for going back, it's too late!" A group of assassins in the distance saw the carriage stop, and started from a small dirt Behind the **** appeared, less than two hundred meters away, but there were only fifty or sixty people. This made Li Yunfei a little strange. He was the number one general in the world, so he dared to play assassination with so many people?
"Do these people underestimate me too much? How come there are so many people here?"
"My lord, rest for a while, and leave this number of people to the subordinates to deal with!" Thirty-six took out an enhanced version of the repeating crossbow from the carriage and set it up, but the other party moved first, and I saw that those people took out one after another. The strong crossbow came in an instant.
Li Yunfei also instantly drew out his long sword and blocked the arrow.
"Thirty-six, you are optimistic about the carriage. I have to deal with these people myself. Even the crossbow can't deal with them!" Li Yunfei ordered, and the people rushed towards the group of people. The group saw that the crossbow arrow could not solve the problem. They took out their weapons and rushed over.
The distance of more than 100 meters was of course reached in an instant under the impact of the cavalry. Due to the weak attributes of the body, many magical means could not be used. It could only be hit hard with one sword and one sword, killing several assassins in a row. By the way, grab a horse and turn over.
To be honest, this group of people is not weak at all. In the previous confrontation, a few of them were extremely powerful. He unexpectedly used his sword to not hurt those people. If he was the real Lu Bu, he would only have to escape for his life. .
Three of these assassins were extremely powerful, almost the same as Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. One of them was a master swordsman. After the three of them rescued each other, they fought several times in a row, but Li Yunfei failed to clean up the opponent.
"Where did the nameless rat come from, who are so hidden in their work, aren't they afraid of being laughed at?" Li Yunfei really didn't believe that there would suddenly be so many powerful masters in this world.
"My Xiliang Ma Chao is here to kill you!"
"I, Changsha Huang Zhong, come to kill you!"
"My Soochow Sun Ce is here to kill you!"
All three of them removed the black scarves on their heads and reported their names directly. Sure enough, they were not unknown people.
"...Huang Zhong and Sun Ce are coming over to assassinate me. I can still understand why you, Ma Chao, came here from Liangzhou to mix things up, and you are full to support yourself? Aren't you afraid that your Liangzhou will be cleaned up by Yuan Shao?"
"The thief Yuan is dead. His three sons are attacking each other, and they can't take care of themselves. You still want the thief Yuan to rescue Ruhu!" Ma Chao gave an unexpected news that Li Yunfei didn't think about at all. Yuan Shao died so early. More than two years earlier than in history.
It was equivalent to Yuan Shao, the most powerful warlord who dominated the Yellow River Basin, and he died so quickly. There must be some conspiracy in it, and it is very likely that it has something to do with Cao Cao.
"Well, even if Yuan Shao is dead, I have nothing to do with you Liangzhou. Is it appropriate for you to come all the way here to trouble me?"
"Brother Ma is talking nonsense with him. Thief Lu is only for profit and has no faith. Everyone in the world will kill him!" Sun Ce was afraid that Ma Chao would be persuaded away by Li Yunfei, and things would be difficult to handle today.
"Look at the arrow!" Huang Zhong suddenly shouted, indicating that he was not a sneak attack, the arrow was accurate, but the speed of the arrow was too slow, less than 70 meters per second, and it was easy to dodge, and the two of them for a while. Attacked again.
This Ma Chao's swordsmanship is really powerful, and he is almost a faction of his own. If it is not for the speed, he is not as good as himself, even if it is one-on-one. , The strength is really good, and it is a little more powerful than expected. Mainly, he is also good at playing swords. In addition, Huang Zhong's swordsmanship is not bad. For a while, the sword, light and sword shadow, even stalemate, seems to be countless times more difficult than dealing with Liu Guanzhang...
How could this happen? Li Yunfei really doesn't understand. Could it be that he has been practicing his internal strength for nearly a year in vain? Or is it because Liu Guanzhang was completely underestimated by the enemy at the beginning. When they held the sword, they did not know that their swordsmanship would be so powerful, so they were defeated by this trick under their rivals in love? And this time, the three of them came well prepared, and they seemed to be paying great attention to each other's protection. In addition, they were not used to their current mounts, because this was not a red rabbit horse that had the same mind as their own, so they were very different. The big influence, this increase and decrease, has led to this strange phenomenon now.
The four of them fought in a team, Li Yunfei was a little tough, and the other three were even more frightened, and they had no intention of calculating, taking advantage of the sneak attack launched by the other party's weapons and mounts that were not around, and still could only fight to a tie, what should we do in the future? It's impossible to kill people today. Maybe the reinforcements have already started. Just now, a strange thing suddenly flew into the sky and exploded, obviously sending a message for help.
It is said that the big fireworks were launched by Thirty-Six in the distance. Just now, seeing that Li Yunfei was entangled by three people and could not solve it with a single move, he directly sent a help signal made by the lord himself...
