The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 83

[Chapter 82 Assassination]

In May of the seventh year of Guanghe, Huangfu Song set fire to Bocai’s army in Changshe, Bocai was defeated, and the main force of the Yellow Turbans in Yuzhou was killed by tens of thousands. Huangfu Song led the army to pursue Bocai to Runan County.

At this time, Zhong Yu, who had already pacified the entire Jingzhou, was bringing his personal guards to Jiangling City.

It is spring in southern China, when the snow and ice melt and turn into streams to irrigate the land.

Everywhere is full of a kind of vigorous vitality, and the green shoots are full of fields.

“drive!”

There was a clatter of hooves.

I saw hundreds of cavalry trot across the road on the plain, and pedestrians on the side of the road avoided one after another, so as not to block the way of these officers and they were innocently killed by them.

“Your Majesty, I will only bring a few hundred guards in this area. Are there any weak strengths? If someone is wrong, what should the king’s safety be?” Zhong Yu, who took the lead and took the lead, said a general who looked like a general.

“It doesn’t matter, now the entire Jingzhou has been trodden down by this king’s army, and which Xiaoxiao dares to come out to make trouble, not hide in the house honestly, do you want this king to punish his nine clans?” Hearing the general guard beside him The question, Zhong Yu said with a look of disapproval.

The group, riding fast horses, quickly crossed the avenue and turned to a trail.

After a short walk, I finally arrived at the destination. This is a forest with few people and many prey. It is a good place for spring hunting.

Since the two counties of Jingzhou were pacified, the army was divided into four parts, and each went to attack the other remaining counties in Jingzhou.

Zhong Yu sits in the center of these two places alone, coordinating the four sides, and it feels a little boring over time.

This is not the first time he has come out, and he has counted it more than ten times!

At the beginning, Zhong Yu also took his thousands of troops to patrol the route constantly along the way, to disperse pedestrians, so as to avoid those who have bad intentions.

However, after going down several times, there was no assassination move, and no danger was found, and the number of guards slowly decreased to several thousand, more than a thousand, hundreds of people.

This time, he only brought 300 cavalry with him, and did not bring any infantry with him.

Again, as usual, the surrounding guards went to the forest to drive off the prey and drove them to Zhong Yu so that he could hunt better.

A group of people is like this, you chase after me, constantly hunt the prey, and watch the prey flee in front of him, in order to survive, Zhong Yu has a sense of enjoyment in controlling all beings and manipulating their destiny.

This is also the reason why he chose to take the difficult road of being an emperor, rather than being a lone ranger, surrounded by countless people, and with a single order, thousands of people did their best for themselves and died.

If at the end, if this road is clear in this life, then who can understand the feeling of such a person above man, god above god, and sky above heaven!

Zhong Yu, who was playing games and enjoying the fun of power, did not find that he was thousands of meters away from him.

There was a pair of eyes looking at him full of hatred, those eyes full of revenge, extremely red.

There was a raging fire in the eyes, and there was an emotion called pain and despair, tormenting these people who were still alive.

Those people were waiting, when Zhong Yu had the least amount of guards and the most relaxed vigilance, fell into their ambush circle, and then swarmed up.

Let this demon who killed their whole family and robbed them of all their kinship, glory, wealth, and status pay the price he deserves, in order to show the mysterious heroic spirit under the Jiuquan of their relatives.

Finally, this opportunity came. There were only more than fifty guards around Zhong Yu, and the other guards were hundreds of meters away, driving the prey for Zhong Yu.

To get to Zhong Yu’s side, it would take him at least two or three minutes in the jungle.

This was the moment when Zhong Yu’s guards were the weakest in the past half a year. They attacked Yizhou from Zhong Yu and slaughtered countless aristocratic families.

Countless assassinations were planned around Zhong Yu’s side, but they were cracked ahead of time because of the guards who were closely vigilant and defended without the slightest loophole.

After losing countless human and material resources, like-minded people, and meaningless deaths one after another, they finally recognized the reality.

With precautions, it is impossible to assassinate this tyrant.

You can only wait until the tyrant is slack and reveals his flaws before he can kill with one hit.

It wasn’t after half a year that this opportunity finally came. After half a year without encountering an assassination, Zhong Yu finally relaxed his vigilance and dared to go out hunting, not caring about the possible assassinations.

Perhaps he also thought in his heart that the younger generation had already been so frightened by his might that they dared not move, and could only live in the shadowy corner, secretly licking his bruised body.

Here, Zhong Yu is only a hundred steps away from the ambush circle of those assassins, and if he is closer, he may be discovered by those guards in advance, thus missing the opportunity.

The leader of the assassins couldn’t hold back his excitement and issued an order. Suddenly, dozens of crossbow arrows flew all around, heading straight for Zhong Yu’s surroundings.

Those guards seemed to be a little surprised that someone had assassinated Yu, and for a while,

Some did not respond.

Only the seven or eight guards beside Zhong Yu flew up and rushed to Zhong Yu’s side, blocking the dozens of crossbow arrows with their bodies.

The sound of puchi puchi sounded one after another, and all the guards were shot into a hornet’s nest by the crossbow arrow, and the blood flowed non-stop and dripped down.

However, the will in their hearts kept their bodies from falling, and stood up tightly, blocking Zhong Yu’s surroundings. Although their consciousness gradually dissipated, the firmness of their bodies did not dissipate. The loyal guards of .com stood beside Zhong Yu.

“Kill, kill this tyrant and avenge our dead relatives!”

“Come on, for the hatred in our hearts, for our will to live.”

Words proclaiming their determination and expressing their purpose came out of the mouths of those assassins.

In a blink of an eye, Zhong Yu had gathered around him. Hundreds of assassins, and from a distance, thousands of him came quickly.

And Zhong Yu’s side only had more than 30 people after the attack just now.

The guards of more than 200 people in the distance were also desperately dragged by a group of 500 dead men.

The situation was extremely dangerous for a while, Zhong Yu’s life seemed to have been controlled by others and left his control, which could also be played by these assassins.

However, there was no panic on Zhong Yu’s face, instead, surrounded by more than 30 guards, he calmly looked at the few leader-like assassins who walked out slowly.

Those leaders were not in a hurry to kill Zhong Yu. For a few months, they wanted to kill Zhong Yu and then hurry up, so as to comfort their entire clan in the spirit of heaven, how could they be clear in a few words? Yes.

If he just let the enemy die like this, and he didn’t give a good vent before his death, it must be difficult to calm the distortion in his heart.

So they are not in a hurry, they have to appreciate the face of this ruthless and ruthless lord before he dies.

Watching him cry and kneel in front of him, begging for his forgiveness and forgiveness.

Seeing his expression full of despair and pain and helplessness because the hope he gave him time and time again was shattered, can the hatred and pain in their hearts be truly healed.
