A Clash of Gods - Chapter 1357
[Chapter 1347 Thorn Xue]
In the middle of the night, Xue Lingfeng was still dressed in armor, riding a horse on a long street in the capital.
Since he served as the commander of the Tiger God Battalion, he has been accustomed to riding on horseback on the streets before his son. As the Tiger God Battalion guarding the capital city, the position of the commander of the Tiger God Battalion is of course unusual. He controls all the gates of Kyoto, whether in At any time, Xue Lingfeng’s position is a very eye-catching chair.
However, Xue Lingfeng has always been very low-key.
Not only low-key, but also calm.
If it is said that Ximen Wuhen is the commander of the Shenhou Mansion, he has almost no contact with officials in the court on weekdays, then among the hundreds of officials in the entire capital, the second person known as the solitary minister is Xue Lingfeng.
Xue Lingfeng’s background is naturally not weak. His father was also a local military commander. When Emperor Taizu pacified the south, the Xue family surrendered to the Great Chu, and then the Xue family became the subordinate of the old marquis in Jinyi. Xue Lingfeng’s age Gently, he has already made a lot of credit on the battlefield.
Xue Lingfeng was a calm person. Back then, the first emperor had to choose one person to guard the capital, and he was recommended by the old marquis.
However, after Xue Lingfeng became the commander of the Tiger God Camp, he hardly had any personal relationships with any officials in the DPRK. Even in the Jinyi Qi family, Xue Lingfeng never waited for the gate of the Qi family. This is of course an anomaly, but no one It can be denied that Xue Lingfeng is indeed the most suitable general to defend the capital.
Xue Lingfeng has absolute loyalty to Da Chu. He went into battle when he was young, and he has made a lot of contributions in the battlefield. Moreover, he has been familiar with the art of war since he was a child, and his martial arts skills are among the best among the military generals in the capital. There are enough people like this. His prestige dominates the elite soldiers under his command.
For many years, the Tiger God Camp has faithfully performed their duty of guarding the capital, and Xue Lingfeng is also in awe of the officials of the DPRK and the military.
Every day Xue Lingfeng would go to check in person after the city gate was closed. No one could know which gate he would appear at, but once he found out that the guards were slack in any way, he would personally pick up his whip and beat him. After the beating, the officers and soldiers will be ordered to be expelled from the army. For a soldier, dying in battle is the highest honor, but being expelled for malfeasance is a lifelong shame. Big eyes, dare not have the slightest negligence.
Returning from the city gate to the mansion is after midnight.
The entire capital was already silent. Xue Lingfeng rode down the street on horseback, followed by four attendants. Of course, these four attendants were all good players. Every night, the four of them followed Commander Xue through familiar streets. They were used to it. Maybe it was because of this pattern that they were almost numb, or maybe a few people were really tired at the end of the day, so they didn’t even notice the figure appearing at the back.
But Xue Lingfeng would not.
Xue Lingfeng would never let down his guard. Of course, he knew that his seat was too important, and not everyone wanted to see him sitting there all the time.
Most importantly, some strange changes that have taken place recently have made him even more alert every day.
The change of the Black Scale Battalion being incorporated into the Black Sword Battalion is already surprising. A while ago, the Yulin Battalion, which was guarding the imperial city, suddenly had 300 people leaving the capital. When they came back, it seemed that there were many fewer people. It was all under Xue Lingfeng’s eyelids, and he naturally knew all about these situations.
Naturally, Yulin Camp never left the capital, but every time he left the capital, it was to protect His Majesty the Emperor.
But only this time, Chi Fengdian personally took hundreds of elite soldiers from the Yulin Camp to leave the capital,
and it was not to protect the emperor, which of course would arouse Xue Lingfeng’s vigilance.
Everything seemed to be calm in the capital. Apart from these few things that were hardly noticed by the common people, nothing too big happened, but Xue Lingfeng’s keen sense of smell made him alert. He was the highest guard in the capital. General, any change in the capital will make him vigilant.
There was a figure appearing from the side and rear, of course Xue Lingfeng had noticed it, but he kept calm and walked to the middle of the long street with a few of his men. The entourage was suddenly a little surprised. They were very familiar with the road, and they didn’t understand why the commander wanted to go into the alley, but this kind of surprise only lasted for a blink of an eye, and they immediately became alert. After all, Xue Lingfeng personally selected it. Attendants, these people are not only not weak, but also respond quickly, quickly following up with Xue Lingfeng, and at the same time they have already drawn out the sabres around their waists.
Just when Xue Lingfeng reached the entrance of the alley and was about to enter the alley, a figure descended from the sky, but it was ambush on the roof, volleying down, holding the knife in both hands, the knife slashed the wind and fell straight to the top of Xue Lingfeng’s head. fall.
The knife wind is piercing, not only unexpected, but also quick and hateful.
Xue Lingfeng’s eyes were cold, and when the sword wind hit, he knew that the opponent’s skills were not weak, at least in terms of swordsmanship, he did have extremely extraordinary ability.
Xue Lingfeng, who was riding on the horse, was only on one side of his body, and he moved away from the sharp and ruthless knife just right. Between the lightning and flint, an extremely fierce fist had torn the air and hit it hard. The sound of a broken rib in the person’s chest was clearly audible. The person was actually beaten back to the sky by a domineering force. The swordsman who was in mid-air, covered his face and only exposed his eyes, showed an incredible look in his eyes. He knew that Xue Lingfeng is not a simple character, but he obviously did not expect Xue Lingfeng to have such a domineering fist.
The man was in the air, and he hadn’t had time to savor the overbearing power of Tiger God Camp, the commanding fist. With a flash of sword light, the moment Xue Lingfeng was punching, the other hand had already drawn the sword, and when the man flew up , Xue Lingfeng had already cut off the man’s head with a knife.
For soldiers, there is no sympathy and pity to fight against the enemy. There are only two outcomes between fighting, you die, or I die!
When Xue Lingfeng had the opportunity to learn about the enemy’s life, he would never hesitate in the slightest. Any chance he gave to the enemy could be hurt to himself.
When the swordsman’s head flew up, there were a few “poof” noises, and the two attendants who followed Xue Lingfeng had been shot through their necks by the crossbow arrows flying from behind. Throat leaked with blood.
The opponent is not only proficient in arrows, but also ruthless.
Xue Lingfeng said solemnly, “Be careful!” As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of breaking wind resumed. From the dark and deep alley in front of him, a crossbow arrow shot towards him again, but Xue Lingfeng did not wave his knife to block. With a low voice, he slammed his feet on the stirrups vigorously, and the whole person flew into the sky, and then he heard the neighing of the horse, and the good horse that had accompanied him for many years had been shot by the arrow, and he stood up alone, as if he wanted to do the last struggle , and then with a “bang”, he fell heavily on the slate on the street, cracking the slate on the ground.
When Xue Lingfeng landed on the stone slab and looked at the horses lying in a pool of blood, there were already more than a dozen figures appearing like ghosts around.
These people were all black and masked, some with arrows and crossbows, and some with big swords. In just an instant, all of Xue Lingfeng’s escape routes were blocked.
Xue Lingfeng looked calm, and swept the group of assassins coldly. Even the two servants who were still alive under his command showed no fear on their faces. Instead, they showed a look of bravery. Since they were already in a desperate situation, they should do the last Give it a try.
“Kill!” In the
crowd, one person gave an order simply and neatly, and the surrounding assassins rushed out without hesitation, and surrounded and killed the three of Xue Lingfeng.
Xue Lingfeng held the big saber in his hand, snorted lowly, and slashed at the person who was rushing in front of him with the saber.
There is no doubt that this group of assassins is clearly well-trained and carefully deployed in advance.
This is the most secluded street that Xue Lingfeng has passed along the way. Even if there are officers and soldiers patrolling the capital at night, the patrol time must come first and last. These assassins chose to launch an assassination at this location, of course, because this street is sparsely populated. Of course, the reinforcements from the Tiger God Battalion were also considered.
At this time to launch an attack, the assassins naturally calculated that no reinforcements would arrive in a short period of time. At least in their opinion, the patrolling guards noticed the movement here and organized manpower to support this side. UU read www.sonicmtl. com This operation is over.
The light of the sword was flying, Xue Lingfeng’s sword was very sharp. Although the two servants under him had the courage, in the face of this group of assassins who had made careful arrangements, they instantly became one against three, and it didn’t cost much at all. In time, these assassins shot sharply and decisively. When Xue Lingfeng slashed an assassin’s neck with a knife, the two attendants also fell in a pool of blood.
Xue Lingfeng is like a fierce tiger, but he is not facing a flock of sheep, but a group of fierce wolves.
Although the tiger bit a few wolves, he was also slashed twice soon, blood dripping, but at this time Xue Lingfeng still seemed unusually calm. Orderly, but this group of assassins is really experienced. Although Xue Lingfeng is brave, he has never been able to break out of the siege.
“Pfft!”
Xue Lingfeng saw the opportunity and slashed at an assassin’s neck again, blood spurting out, but at this moment, he heard a voice behind him: “Look! “A short and fat man in black has flashed behind Xue Lingfeng like a ghost’s shadow, Xue Lingfeng turned around abruptly, and before he had time to make a move, the man in black slapped it with a palm and hit Xue Lingfeng hard. On Feng’s chest, although Xue Lingfeng is tall and big, this palm is really domineering. The strong body has already flew straight out, and then fell heavily on the ground, with a “poof”, spewing a mouthful of blood.
There was an assassin on the side who wanted to take the opportunity to step forward, but the man in black said solemnly: “I will do it myself.” Walking slowly towards Xue Lingfeng, Xue Lingfeng struggled on the ground twice, struggling to stand up, Tossing and stumbling, he turned and ran.
