Chapter 852： 4 big assassins (make up the night)

Baishuiguan in Yizhou, here is the main battlefield where Yizhou Army and Hanzhong Army fought.

The imperial commander of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Su, who was ambitious, wanted to capture Baishui Pass and open the way to Hanzhong.

Defending Baishuiguan was the alien prince Liu An, who was also the player lord who had cooperated with Liu Yan, Yizhou Mu, and had always been a deadly enemy of the Hanzhong leader.

The two have been fighting each other for many years, but Liu Bei and Yang Su entered Yizhou, overwhelming the host and seizing Liu An's territory.

Angrily, Liu An turned to cooperate with his mortal enemy Zhang Dao, guarding Baishui, blocking the dangerous passage between Chengdu and Hanzhong, disgusting Liu Bei and Yang Su.

There are many roads to attack Hanzhong. You can attack from Baishuiguan and Bajun. Relatively speaking, the Yizhou army tends to win Baishuiguan because it is relatively easy to supply.

Because of Liu An's defense of Baishui Pass and the dangerous terrain of Shu, Yang Su was unable to quickly capture Baishui Pass for a while and was blocked by Baishui Pass for 47 days, unable to advance for half a step.

"Liu An is a big trouble for me, and I must get rid of it."

In Yang Su's military account, Yang Su invited an alien player.

For their own interests, players are often active in the struggle for hegemony among the lords, seeking benefits, either for status or for gold and silver.

This player has been dealing with Yang Su for several years and the two sides have cooperated.

At first, the object of this player's allegiance was Cao Cao, but was later bought by Zhao Long, the lord of Yang Su.

After Zhao Long's death, this person has been following Yang Su, and Yang Su gave him the status and gold and silver he wanted.

He was recruited by Yang Su and immediately guessed Yang Su's intentions.

"Do you want me to send someone to assassinate Liu An? The price is not cheap."

This player made a gesture to Yang Su asking for gold and silver.

Yang Su has already understood the greed of players: "In the past three years, I have given you no less than three thousand taels of silver every year, which is not a small amount."

"I have a few assassins to support. They are the best assassins in the world. Even prince-level figures can be assassinated smoothly. At the beginning, Cao Cao and Zhao Long used the hands of assassins to achieve their goals. If you want to To assassinate Liu An, one must have one thousand five hundred taels of gold. If the assassin accidentally dies in action, an extra one thousand five hundred taels will be required."

"In other words, a total of three thousand taels of gold..."

Yang Su's eyes were a bit harsh.

The player's bid was high, but this person did recruit a group of assassins, including NPCs and free players.

Both Cao Cao and Zhao Long have used these assassins to serve themselves.

The player said: "Even if it costs three thousand taels of gold to kill Liu An, it is quite valuable to take advantage of the defending group of dragons without a leader, and to capture Baishuiguan. Why should you hesitate? Besides, the top assassins pay attention to chivalry, not gold and silver. It took me a lot of time to make them owe me the favor. It took me five years for the top assassin to find ways to establish friendship with him. So three thousand taels of gold is not a lot at all."

"No matter, then three thousand taels of gold. If the assassination is successful, one or two will not be less."

In order to open the passage to Hanzhong as soon as possible, Yang Su has become crazy, even unscrupulous.

Yang Su's army's siege of Baishui Pass ended, and 200,000 troops left Baishui Pass one after another.

The garrison at Baishui Pass was already ready to fight the deadly battle with Yang Su's army, but Yang Su suddenly withdrew his troops, so the garrison at Baishui Pass breathed a sigh of relief and celebrated the enemy's retreat.

"It seems that Yang Su saw that Baishuiguan could not be attacked for a long time, and he lost tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, so he retreated. If it weren't for Liu Bei and Yang Su to fled to Yizhou, and I had taken over the magpie's nest, I would have succeeded Liu Yan and became the lord of Yizhou. I'm really unwilling!"

Liu An thought of the status of Yizhou Mu, which was readily available, and was snatched away by Liu Bei and Yang Su, and still gritted his teeth.

Baishuiguan was not easy to attack, and Yang Su led his troops to retreat. In Liu An's view, it was a matter of course.

When Yang Su retired two hundred miles away, there was a tendency to return to Zitong. The Baishuiguan guards became more relaxed, thinking that Yang Su had completely given up on attacking Baishuiguan, and suddenly relaxed.

The gates of Baishui Pass were opened, and grain and grass were transported from surrounding villages and towns to enter the pass for supplies.

At this time, fish and dragons were mixed.

"I heard that Liu Bei's imperial conquest and crusade against the Southern Barbarians suffered a lot in the mountains and forests. Yang Suyou Han Qinhu, Hu Luguang, Gao Su, etc., are brave and good at fighting. If it is not for Baishuiguan, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack. , Has already been captured by Yang Su. Now Yang Su retreats, it is the wise choice, otherwise, he must be beaten."

Liu An took a group of troops to patrol the city defenses of Baishuiguan, and made people repair the damaged walls.

Outside the Baishui Pass, Yang Su caused the siege equipment to be burned, leaving a ruin, which made the Baishui Pass defenders believe in Yang Su's retreat.

"The King Xia heard that I resisted Yang Su at Baishuiguan and delayed Yang Su's military front, and praised us. After King Xia settles Liaodong, he will receive me. In the future, I will take refuge in King Xia.

As an inconspicuous prince of Yizhou, Liu An is not as popular as Zhang Dao, or even Mu Ke in the Nanban area, but he is also the target of Chutian and has the opportunity to seal the prince.

Liu An's generals learned that their lord intends to rely on King Xia, who is the strongest in power, and that he will be King Xia's men in the future, with a bright future, so their morale is boosted and they are more motivated to defend Baishuiguan.

Hundreds of wheel carts transported grain and grass to Baishuiguan to make up for the previous losses.

Suddenly, a wheelbarrow dumped near Liu'an, causing a small-scale riot.

"Grain and grass is an important matter for the military strategist. Go and help each other and quickly transport the grain and grass to the granary."

Liu Anling stepped forward to help each other.

Suddenly, the sharp sword came out of the scabbard, and the people who transported the grain had a calm expression, strode to the stars, and slew towards Liu An!

"Help!"

Murderous intent suddenly appeared, Liu An's soldiers were pale and chaotic!

No one would have imagined that after it was almost clear that Yang Su had withdrawn his troops for two hundred miles, there would be a professional assassin who would take action and plan to set the world with one sword!

Liu An has a group of soldiers around him, they are either high-level arms or generals!

The soldier approaching Liu An hurriedly drew out his sword, trying to stop the assassin who was suddenly attacked!

The cold light flicked, the assassin's attacking moves were deadly, almost all of them were a one-stop killer. With the ambition of going without return, he went straight to Liu An!

One by one, the soldiers were killed by the sharp sword, and there were as many as thirteen people who fell under the assassin's sword!

"Stop hurting my lord!"

A diamond-level general made an attempt to stop the assassin!

When the assassin attacked, the position of this diamond general was already considered!

The sword slashed at the assassin's long sword and knocked it into the air!

And at this time, the assassin abandoned the long sword, shattered Liu An's throat with the scabbard, and assassinated it!

The top assassin, even the scabbard, can be used as a weapon to kill!

The second sword of the diamond-level military commander came right away. The assassin wanted to dodge, but in order to kill Liu An, it was too late and was slashed by the diamond-level military commander!

"kill him!"

Liu An's soldiers surrounded the assassins!

The assassin was thin and thin, only more than five feet tall, holding the only remaining scabbard, and looking around indifferently at the hundreds of soldiers who had only reacted at this time, as well as the overwhelming Baishuiguan guards.

Surrounded by tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, even the waiting assassins in the world cannot escape.

In a small-scale sneak attack, the top assassin bleeds five steps and is almost invincible, but it can't compete with the army fighting on the battlefield.

A round of arrow rain or long spear phalanx assault by the army will kill any assassin.

"You have to kill my lord with your life!"

Liu An was pretty good with the generals, but when Liu An was suddenly killed by the assassin, the group of generals became angry!

"I want to kill Liu An not for Juelu, but to repay my gratitude. My wish is over."

The assassin held the scabbard and rushed into the army.

Although ten thousand people, did not hesitate.

The dense spear forest stabbed the assassin!

One person, only the scabbard, killed 27 people.

In the military formation, the assassin's force seemed to be suppressed, unable to fully exert himself, suffered heavy injuries, and spears left blood holes in his body.

In the end, the assassin who claimed to be leaving seized a soldier's sword and slew himself to death.

Thousands of eyes were focused on the assassin. He promised to assassinate Liu An, without thinking of leaving alive.

To Li fell into a pool of blood, Baishuiguan was in chaos.

The defenders of Baishui Pass didn't care about who they wanted to leave.

The lord of Baishuiguan was assassinated, and the dragons of Baishuiguan had no leader.

"Yang Su's cavalry is here again!"

The defenders of Baishui Pass had no time to deal with the chaos after Liu An was assassinated, and the enemy cavalry came to the city again!

Cavalry commander Han captured the tiger, led his cavalry out at night and day, ran long distances, and killed a carbine!

The chaos at Baishuiguan turned into fear.

"Yang Su, it must be the assassin sent by Yang Su who assassinated our lord!"

By now, the Baishuiguan Guards had understood that this assassin was sent by Yang Su, and that Yang Su's withdrawal was an out-and-out trap!

Baishuiguan sent an assassin to leave the player who assassinated Liu An could not help but feel sorry for the broken assassin.

To leave but the famous assassins in the Spring and Autumn Period, some people will leave the ranks of the four major assassins.

Real assassins go to assassinate the princes, basically there is no return, because regardless of the life or death of the princes, the anger of their men will vent to the assassins.

Seeing that the assassin was so easy to use, Yang Su said to the player: "I didn't expect to take Liu An's life so easily. I don't know if it is possible to assassinate King Xia and take King Xia's life? King Xia is now in the limelight. Sooner or later they will be enemies."

The player recruiting the assassin shook his head: "In order to assassinate Liu An, a legendary assassin has been sacrificed. The guards around King Xia are not at the same level as the guards of Liu An. It is reported that King Xia always has warriors around him. Dianwei, as a personal guard, may be difficult even for a legendary assassin, and it is difficult for him to succeed in an assassination. Besides, how easy is it to recruit a legendary assassin? I only have the kindness of a legendary assassin left.

There is another reason, this player did not explicitly say.

He took advantage of the legendary assassin's character that he must repay, Ling Yaoli assassinated Liu An, but he did not dare to assassinate Chu Tian.

Assassinating Liu An, Liu An's subordinates may not be able to retaliate against him, because Liu An is no longer a powerful prince, unable to fight back, and is currently just a bottom prince.

But Chu Tian is different. Chu Tian is the most powerful prince. Not to mention that the assassin's assassination of Chu Tian has a poor success rate. Whether he assassins Chu Tian, ​​succeeds or fails, he will be madly retaliated by the Chutian forces.

Players are greedy for gold and silver, but it doesn't mean you are desperate.

It's okay to assassinate the little princes, as the assassination of the big princes will kill him.

Therefore, the assassination of great princes is rare.
