Chapter 179 At stake
Meng Wu looked at the one hundred soldiers who accompanied him and said nothing more.
Zhang Yuanqing got on the carriage and Ada drove steadily towards Xianyang city.
"whoosh"
A sharp arrow streaked through the sky, and then a soldier fell to the ground.
"Protect the Right Prime Minister."
"whoosh"
"whoosh"
Arrow feathers flew by, either nailing the soldiers or the wooden boards outside the carriage.
Following the screams, Zhang Yuanqing could imagine the general situation outside.
"Protect the Right Prime Minister to leave."
The soldiers quickly gathered around, and the leader spoke to A Da and A Er, while keeping an eye on the situation around them.
"Go back and find General Meng Wu."
Zhang Yuanqing's calm voice came from the carriage.
Let those outside feel at ease.
A Da and A Er quickly turned the carriage around and headed towards the Mo family workshop.
At this time, after the arrows passed, about three hundred strong men with masks came.
They held swords in their hands and rushed towards Zhang Yuanqing.
Full of murderous intent, fearless of death.
This reckless fighting style made it very difficult for the soldiers protecting Zhang Yuanqing to deal with.
Moreover, the other side has a large number of people.
Team leader Li Feng quickly divided the team into two teams, one to stop the assassin and the other to protect Zhang Yuanqing's departure.
Outside the city of Xianyang at dusk, swords flashed everywhere and the air was filled with murderous intent.
Zhang Yuanqing felt uncomfortable in his chest from the shaking in the carriage, but he didn't dare to make a sound for fear of disturbing the people outside.
Ah Da whipped the horse hard, and the horse felt pain and ran faster on the road.
Seeing that Zhang Yuanqing was about to escape, the assassin quickly sent most of his men to chase him.
Helplessly, Li Feng once again sent out a dozen people to stop the assassin.
Although Li Feng led his men to fight the enemy recklessly, they were ultimately outnumbered.
Soon, Zhang Yuanqing's carriage was stopped by the assassin.
A Da and A Er looked at each other, one stayed in the carriage to protect Zhang Yuanqing, and the other drew his sword and rushed towards the assassin.
Mo Sheng also followed A Da to fight bravely against the enemy.
However, it didn't take long before several assassins arrived next to the carriage.
Ah Da gripped the sword tightly in his hand, his eyes fixed on the assassin's movements.
In an instant, the two sides started fighting.
The swords collided, sending out sparks.
"Master Hou!"
Ah Da roared in anger and was stabbed in the abdomen by the assassin. He saw that the two assassins had already lifted the curtain of Zhang Yuanqing's car.
Mosheng quickly dealt with the assassin who was blocking him, and without caring about the swords and knives stabbing at him from behind, he flew to the side of the carriage.
He slashed at the assassin with his sword.
An assassin was forced to fight with Mo Sheng.
On the other side, Ah Da's eyes were red and blood was flowing from the wound on his abdomen, staining his clothes red in a moment.
However, Ah Da didn't care at all.
He brandished his sword fiercely and headed towards the carriage.
The car door was opened from the outside.
Zhang Yuanqing looked at the masked man outside with a pale face.
I know I can't escape today.
The other party was obviously well prepared, otherwise, the one hundred elite soldiers arranged by the king would not be unable to resist.
Judging from the sword in the assassin's hand, it is obviously also used by the military.
The answer is already obvious.
"Your master is very brave to come and assassinate me."
The assassins ignored Zhang Yuanqing's words. They had received death orders before coming here. If they failed to kill the right prime minister, they would die when they returned, and their families would also be implicated.
It’s better to give it a try so that your family can be taken care of.
Something flashed through his eyes, and the assassin slashed his sword at Zhang Yuanqing's neck.
Under the moonlight, the sword emitted a cold light, which made people feel scared.
The sharp sword edge seemed to penetrate the skin.
Zhang Yuanqing closed his eyes quietly.
pain.
It hurts too much.
Zhang Yuanqing felt the blood flowing, but he was no longer afraid.
Mo Sheng drew his sword and stabbed the assassin in the back.
Then he was stabbed through the chest by the assassin next to him.
Mo Sheng then grabbed the assassin's hand with his big hand and kicked him out.
The assassin was kicked to the ground, then he drew the sword from his chest, cut off the head of one of the assassins, and walked to the front of the carriage with a trembling body.
The assassin was stabbed in the back by the sword thrown by Mo Sheng. He had fallen to the ground and was killed by Mo Sheng with one sword.
Without caring about anything else, Mosheng climbed up the carriage, and the blood dyed the shaft red.
"Master Hou."
"Master Hou, are you okay?"
However, there was no response from inside.
Mo Sheng opened the curtain of the carriage in panic, only to see that the marquis inside had a bright red chest, a pale face, and his eyes were closed.
"Ada, Aer."
Hearing Mo Sheng's screams, A Da and A Er felt bad.
They also saw what happened just now. If it weren't for Mo Sheng throwing the sword in time, I'm afraid that the Marquis,
Now that I am like this, then the Marquis.
"Quick, take the Marquis away."
A Da and A Er formed a barrier with the few remaining guards to stop all assassins for Mo Sheng.
The carriage sped along the dim street, with fast horses chasing them in the distance.
"Quick, save the Marquis."
"General Meng Wu."
"Save the Marquis."
From a distance, Mo Sheng roared with all his might.
From a distance, the soldiers guarding the Mo family workshop heard the sound in the distance and looked at the carriage. Although they could not see it clearly, it was obviously not a normal speed. Moreover, why was there a group of people riding fast behind them?
The guards did not dare to be careless and immediately reported to Meng Wu.
Meng Wu recognized the people in the carriage as soon as he came out.
"Those are the Marquis's servants. One of us will follow me, and the rest of you will guard this place."
"promise."
Fifty people immediately followed Meng Wu and quickly went over.
In the distance, the assassins chasing Zhang Yuanqing saw the Qin army coming and knew that they might not be able to complete the mission today.
But they couldn't just leave.
We can only fight to the death.
Meng Wu and his men immediately fought with the assassin.
Mo Sheng didn't dare to stay for a moment, and the carriage went all the way to the Mo family workshop.
"Hurry, the Marquis is injured."
After saying that, Mo Sheng fell headfirst onto the carriage.
The guards did not dare to delay and quickly took Mo Sheng away. Someone lifted the curtain of the carriage and saw that the marquis, who was fine before, was lying there with pale lips.
The bloodstains on the chest are shocking to see.
"Quick, go find a doctor."
"That lines up the rooms."
A soldier quickly carried Zhang Yuanqing down, and the others quickly arranged everything.
"drive"
“Da da da da”
The hurried sound of horse hooves broke the silence of Xianyang City.
"Xu~"
"Is the doctor available?"
"Quick, follow me to the outside of the city. The Marquis was assassinated outside the city and is unconscious."
In the medical clinic, those who were about to rest heard the soldier's words, hurriedly woke up their masters, took their medicine boxes and rode out of the city gate on fast horses.
“Da da da da”
"Quick, inform His Majesty that the Marquis has been assassinated outside the city and is unconscious. He is currently in the Mo family workshop."
The guards at the gate of Xianyang Palace did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately passed the message to the palace.
Shi Yi ran in in a panic, "Your Majesty, the Right Prime Minister was assassinated. He is in the Mo family workshop outside the city and is now unconscious."
"Snapped"
Ying Zheng slammed the pen in his hand on the table.
"What is Li Feng doing!"
"Quick, prepare the horses, and call the doctor."
"promise."
The emperor's wrath made Shi Yi terrified.
Someone was quickly sent to call for Doctor Xia Wuqie, and the doctor left the Xianyang Palace with His Majesty on horseback.
