Chapter 323: Dark Night Murder
Zuo Shiping looked at everyone as if it were a matter of course. In his opinion, whether he was loyal to the eldest lady or the young master, he was still a member of Wanbao Pavilion. This was not a betrayal.
He smiled proudly and said: "If you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth. Those who know the current affairs are heroes. What I am informing is Wang Tao, the biggest horse bandit here."
His Eighteen Tornado Riders left no grass growing wherever they went. And all of them are masters. If you are willing to hand over the eldest lady, I can intercede on your behalf. "
Before he finished speaking, Liu Guofan took out the long knife from his waist and swung it suddenly, and immediately chopped off his six-yang leader, and a stream of hot blood spurted out.
Zhao Yiming glanced at him in surprise, shook his head and said nothing. Suddenly he felt the earth tremble, and soon there was the sound of horse hooves.
Liu Guofan shouted quickly and hurriedly commanded the convoy. Using the vehicle as a cover, he looked out and saw smoke billowing as a powerful cavalry rushed over.
The horse team stopped uniformly about a hundred paces into the camp. It was obvious that these people were well-trained and different from ordinary robbers.
The leader was a man with long hair. He held a saber in his hand and shouted loudly: "I am Wang Tao, the horse bandit. If you leave your women and treasures, I will let you live!"
Liu Guofan responded in a deep voice: "I have heard about Leader Wang for a long time, and they all say that you are a grand thief who robs the rich and gives to the poor. You can take the wealth we have here, but please don't embarrass us."
Zhang Hongying whispered: "This Wang Tao is the most famous horse bandit of this generation. He was originally a military attaché in the Empire of the Rising Sun. Later, he didn't know what he had committed, so he led a whole team of officers and soldiers to escape here and became a horse bandit. .
They are different from other horse bandits in that they are completely well-trained. The Rising Sun Cavalry is world-famous, and this is also reflected in them.
Once they launch a charge, the entire momentum will be connected as one, and the impact will be overwhelming. It is definitely not something that a single person can withstand. "
Zhao Yiming nodded and said: "I'm afraid there is the shadow of the Empire of the Rising Sun behind this matter. It can be said that there is unlimited murderous potential tonight. Please take care of yourself later!"
Behind Wang Tao, a young man wearing a black cloak whispered: "We will launch a charge soon and we must capture Li Wenwen alive. This woman is very important to us!
There is also the big fish Zhao Yiming. We must take this opportunity to get rid of him, otherwise he will definitely be a serious problem for the empire in the future! "
Wang Tao nodded when he heard the words and shouted again: "Didn't you hear what I said clearly? Leave the woman and the wealth, and I will naturally let you live. If you don't give me a reply within three breaths, then don't Blame me for being ruthless!"
Liu Guofan ordered his men to prepare and said loudly: "You and I don't need to mince words here. If you want us to hand over the eldest lady, you should stop daydreaming."
With a sinister smile on his face, Wang Tao suddenly waved his hand, and the cavalry behind him turned into a torrent of steel and rushed towards the camp.
Liu Guofan looked calm as usual and commanded his men: "Concentrate your arrows on me, don't let them charge."
The guards were all good players, and each one of them could pull a hard bow worth more than five stones. Suddenly, the sky was full of arrows, shooting at the cavalry one after another.
The cavalry under Wang Tao followed the route of the light cavalry. Among the Rising Sun cavalry, they were the rangers who wandered on the wings. They were not commonly used to charge.
Suddenly, dozens of soldiers fell off their horses, and the remaining cavalry took out a crossbow from behind. These crossbows fired seven rounds at the camp.
Because these crossbow arrows were fired mechanically, they had extremely strong penetrating power. They quickly penetrated the car, and people from the escort team fell down after being struck by arrows.
Zhao Yiming looked on with a cold eye. He was now more and more suspicious of Liu Guofan. It seemed that he was not a good person.
He called Wei Wencheng and said, "Go and prepare all the horses. Follow my orders and drive all the horses towards the cavalry."
Wei Wencheng nodded and immediately went to clean up those flatterers. Zhang Hongying frowned slightly, it seemed that he couldn't hold on anymore.
Liu Guofan hurried over and said, "We can't hold it anymore. Doesn't Mr. Zhao have a lot of machines? Take them out quickly!"
Zhao Yiming smiled coldly and said: "Why do you take it out and give it to the Empire of the Rising Sun as a gift? I don't know what your official position is in the Empire of the Rising Sun. Is this hidden deep enough?"
Liu Guofan's face changed slightly, and then he said anxiously: "What Master Zhao is saying, I can learn from it."
Zhao Yiming sneered and said: "I have always suspected Zuo Shiping, where did he get such confidence to dare to directly betray the eldest lady? Now it seems that his confidence is the Empire of the Rising Sun!
When he was killed by you, his face was full of shock and unwillingness, because he never thought that you would take action, and you were the boss behind him.
And it can be seen that you are also proficient in warfare, so how could you not know that you cannot put the rangers within 80 steps, which is the attack range of the opponent's crossbow. "
Liu Guofan suddenly burst out laughing and said: "Young Master Zhao is well known for his bravery and wisdom, but you have discovered so many flaws. I am indeed from the Empire of the Rising Sun.
On this plain, there is no fortress to rely on. Even if you have the means to reach the sky, you can't stop our Rising Sun Iron Cavalry. Mr. Zhao is also a smart man. How about handing over the machine in exchange for a way out? "
Zhao Yiming smiled sarcastically and said: "You can deceive a three-year-old child with your words. Among the three empires, only the Empire of the Rising Sun wants me dead the most. It doesn't matter whether I make friends or not.
And who said you can't deal with cavalry on the plains? Today I will let you see how I can defeat your Rising Sun Cavalry. "
After he finished speaking, he shouted coldly: "Wei Wencheng, why don't you do it yet."
Wei Wencheng shouted, and the horses in the entire convoy roared towards the cavalry. Based on the blind obedience of the horses, the horses quickly became one and became a mess.
If the army and the horse were to fight at the same time, this kind of thing might not happen, but if one side is the bad horse among the people, it would seem chaotic.
Once the cavalry loses its mobility advantage, it becomes a living target. It is quickly shot by the escort and falls immediately.
Liu Guofan was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Zhao Yiming to have such a hand. He raised his head to the sky and roared, and struck Zhao Yiming directly with the long knife in his hand.
Although his kung fu is pretty good, it is far from Zhao Yiming. The latter flicked his sleeves and used the Iron Sleeve Kung Fu to wrap up his long knife and twist it into scrap metal.
