My father, on horseback, is the empire's dragon commander; off horseback, he is the current prime minister. People call me the Young Prime Minister.
My father and I both feared being slau...
A large net fell from the sky and caught the carriage.
In addition, several large nets were thrown out from the rapeseed field.
Zhao Wu reacted the fastest, leaping up and slashing with his knife, cutting the large net above his head in two.
This simple slash alone is enough to amaze many people who know knife skills.
At the same time, Zhao Wu's ears twitched suddenly as he saw dark figures flying out of the rapeseed field.
As he landed, he immediately shouted, "Everyone dismount and lie down!!"
The soldiers acted swiftly, throwing themselves off their horses and landing on the ground. Park Moo-di was a little late, but he cleverly dodged to the other carriage and saw a series of dark figures fly past him.
Some dark figures also crashed into the horses.
The warhorses neighed and fell one by one, bleeding profusely.
Only then did Park Moo-di realize that these dark shadows were spinning scimitars!
"Ah Cheng! Ah Cheng!!" Park Moo-di banged on the carriage.
"What are you shouting for?!"
Are you alright?
"I'm fine. How about you? Are you hurt?!"
Park Moo-di gasped, "No, it was just a close call..."
"Stop talking nonsense and hide under the carriage!"
"And what about you?"
"Don't worry about me, just stay hidden and don't make a sound!"
Park Moo-di said no more, lifted the large net covering the carriage, and crawled under it.
Zhao Cheng shielded Xia Qiqiu with his body and climbed to the observation hole to watch the commotion outside.
This carriage was modified by him; without the use of firearms, it would be difficult to penetrate by ordinary swords, spears, and halberds.
No second volley of scimitars flew in from outside, but the rapeseed flowers could be seen swaying rustlingly.
Zhao Cheng shouted, "They have quite a few of them, prepare for close combat!"
The fields stretched as far as the eye could see, and if someone was lying in ambush, it would be crystal clear. Zhao Wu immediately ran to the side of the carriage that was facing the rapeseed field.
Including the irrigation ditch, the rapeseed field was only a step away from Zhao Wu. Zhao Wu's ears kept twitching, and before he could see anyone, he slashed down with his sword.
"Ah!" A scream rang out, and a person flew up from above the rapeseed field, scattering blood and internal organs that landed on the rapeseed field.
"Holy crap, that's intense!" Park Moo-di, who was under the car, was stunned and quickly covered his mouth.
He never expected that Zhao Cheng's bodyguards would be so fierce!
With a single stroke, he cleaved a living person in two, and the force of the blow sent the corpse flying!
Inside the car, Zhao Cheng sensed something was amiss. Zhao Wu's ruthless attack from the start indicated that he had assessed the situation beforehand.
Very dangerous!
Zhao Cheng shouted, "Soldiers, drop your guns! Draw your swords!!"
The soldiers were all retired from the Dragon Spearmen, and each of them was a master of spearmanship, but they also carried swords as standard equipment, and they regularly trained in swordsmanship.
In this situation, with extremely low visibility and lacking Zhao Wu's cultivation and predictive abilities, their mid-range weapons are a weakness. Using close-range weapons is the most suitable option at this time.
The soldiers did not hesitate in their assessment of Zhao Cheng and immediately abandoned their spears and drew their swords.
At the same time, dozens of people suddenly emerged from the rapeseed field!
They're going for a ruthless move!
The soldiers were forced back a step and fought back against the assassins. Witnessing the assassins' speed and explosive power, they couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.
Thankfully, Zhao Cheng listened and abandoned his gun!
Otherwise, with the speed and agility of a spear, it would be impossible to block this sudden attack!
With his back to the carriage, Zhao Wu had nowhere to retreat.
He is a top-notch expert and has no need to retreat.
No assassin has a chance to come out in front of Zhao Wu, because Zhao Wu will always strike first whenever an assassin is about to come out.
At this moment, Zhao Wu was like playing a game of whack-a-mole, predicting which hole the mole would pop out of, and then smashing it down with his hammer!
Zhao Cheng observed through other observation holes and saw that these assassins, who used curved swords as weapons, were all highly skilled and were evenly matched with the guards in one-on-one combat.
Clearly, these people are all second-rate experts, and they have been through countless battles.
No wonder Zhao Wu judged the situation to be dangerous!
Just then, the rapeseed flowers rustled again, and dozens more assassins leaped out.
Zhao Cheng brought ten guards, who were originally one-on-one with the assassin, but in the blink of an eye, it became one-on-two!
Zhao Wu frowned. The fact that he hadn't gone to help the soldiers meant that there were still assassins in the rapeseed field in front of him.
The carriage would be in danger if he left.
Zhao Cheng wondered, "Why haven't Zhou Chuan and Zhou Nuo shown up yet? Are they also tied up?"
Zhao Cheng's mind raced, trying to figure out the origin of this ambush.
Someone who dares to attack me wouldn't just send some second-rate experts; there must be someone even more powerful.
Then the landslide on the official road must have been intentional!
They deliberately lured them into this rapeseed field to ambush and kill them!
"It seems we've met a tough nut to crack this time."
Zhao Cheng hesitated for a moment, then stepped back into his seat and asked, "Zhao Wu, how many people are ahead of you?"
Zhao Wu said, "There are probably three or five of them. They don't dare to make any rash moves and are deliberately stalling me."
"Get out of the way!"
Zhao Wu understood, and with a leap, jumped onto the roof of the carriage.
A murderous glint flashed in Zhao Cheng's eyes. He opened the seat panel and pressed the button inside hard.
Whoosh!
The carriage jolted violently, and Park Moo-di, who was lying under the carriage, felt a chill on the back of his head. He then saw a row of sharp arrows fly out from above his head and shoot into the rapeseed field.
"Ah!!!" Several cries of agony rang out from the rapeseed field.
Zhao Cheng wiped his sweat and said, "You can go help the guards now!"
