"Your Highness, we are here to protect you. Why are you trying to kill us?"
Although caught off guard, the other assassins were still pretending.
Unwilling to accept defeat, he wanted to find an opportunity to get close to Li Ye.
Li Ye saw that they were still acting and laughed out loud.
"You guys don't even know the rules of the military, and you still dare to say you're protecting me?
Once you enter the Marshal's tent, you are absolutely not allowed to go any further without permission.
How dare you charge straight at me with your hands on the hilts of your swords?
If it wasn't to assassinate me, who else could it be?"
After hearing what Li Ye said, the assassin was shocked.
They just wanted to take advantage of the chaos to kill Li Ye, but they didn't expect that they would find their loophole in such a chaotic time.
I will never pretend again.
His face became extremely ferocious.
He drew his weapon and rushed towards Li Ye.
"Brothers, let's kill him together!"
Now that he had been exposed, there was no chance of escape.
If they fail to complete the task, even their families might not be taken care of.
As long as I complete the task successfully, at least my family will have no worries about food and clothing.
In order to ensure the loyalty of all the death warriors, the families of those who die after completing their mission will be properly taken care of.
Therefore, these assassins fought extremely hard, and some even used their bodies to block in front to give others a chance to succeed.
Li Ye did not hesitate and picked up another crossbow and shot at the man in front.
The assassin was hit by an arrow, and the huge force caused him to fall backwards.
But the people behind still rushed forward desperately.
Li Ye did not reveal his strength immediately, and he hid it as long as possible until the critical moment.
After both crossbows are ready and have fired their arrows, pick up the crossbow and throw arrows at the assassin to delay as much as possible.
Princess Lingyue and Princess Ruyue were observing the situation on Li Ye's side.
Especially when they heard the news of the fire outside, they were immediately alarmed and stared at Li Ye.
When I saw someone rushing towards me in a hurry, I knew that this was most likely an assassin.
Immediately prepared to take action at any time.
Hearing the screams from inside the tent, the two rushed over without hesitation.
Before the assassins could react, several of them were chopped down.
The assassin who was rushing in the front was shocked when he saw that he was attacked from both sides.
It occurred to me that this was actually a trap set for them.
Everything is just to lure them into taking action.
The leading assassin gnashed his teeth and stared at Li Ye intently: "So you were prepared a long time ago? When did you discover us?"
"You are a bunch of idiots. Although it is true that you have accomplices in the barracks, the vast majority of soldiers are loyal to me.
Isn't it easy to discover that a stranger has sneaked in? "Li Ye said with a sneer.
"Humph, even if I have to die today, I will kill you!"
The assassin got the answer without any hesitation and fought against Rin Yue and Princess Ruyue.
Send a few people to attack Li Ye.
Lin Yue snorted coldly and moved at an extremely fast speed.
He suddenly appeared behind the assassins and stabbed at them several times with rapid speed.
The assassin didn't expect a woman to have such powerful martial arts skills.
I could feel the strong killing intent coming from behind, and if I didn't resist, I would definitely stab them in the vitals.
You can only swing your sword backhand to block.
Li Ye, on the other hand, looked leisurely, watching Princess Lin Yue and Princess Ru Yue fighting fiercely with the assassin.
Lei Ying's men also rushed over and surrounded the assassin.
The assassin knew the situation was unpredictable and swung his sword to kill the man without hesitation.
They all knew that if they were caught, their fate would be extremely miserable.
They will be tortured to make them tell everything they know.
To keep it secret, committing suicide is the best decision.
Lei Ying entered the tent with his men, his face full of panic.
Seeing that Li Ye was safe and sound, he relaxed a little: "My men failed to protect me well. Please punish me, Your Highness."
"You guys have done a good job. Did the assassin hurt me? Why should I punish you?
Now that these assassins have been killed and their bodies have been cleaned up, let's all rest."
Li Ye didn't care about what others said.
Lei Ying immediately ordered his men to drag away all the corpses and clean the ground.
Then he said, "Someone has been killed here, and the tent is full of the smell of blood. Why don't you move somewhere else, Your Highness?"
"No need. There are many more situations in war than this! Besides, this may not apply to all assassins.
If he were assassinated somewhere else, the ground would still be dirty." Li Ye said with a smile.
Lei Ying took it seriously, his face extremely serious: "I will conduct a thorough investigation of the entire army right now. No assassin can be allowed to escape."
"Alright, let's do it then! Replace all the surrounding soldiers with trustworthy confidants.
This way, even if an assassin wants to strike, he won't have a chance." Li Ye said.
"I'll do it right away!"
Lei Ying no longer dared to be careless.
Before, Li Ye strongly requested to use himself as bait to lure out all the assassins.
If there were still assassins lurking in the army, they would be even more cautious.
It would be even more difficult to lure them out with traps.
So we can only try our best to use all means to protect Li Ye.
The key point is that Lei Ying didn't know that Li Ye was not powerless, and was very worried about his safety.
Li Ye gave a thumbs-up to Princess Lin Yue and Princess Ru Yue, praising them: "Well done, you were able to easily crush more than a dozen assassins.
From now on, with you two protecting me, no one can hurt me at all."
Lin Yue was not happy about the praise, but stamped her feet angrily: "I am so angry that these assassins actually committed suicide.
Not a single person was left alive.
Now it may not be so easy to track down the person behind this.”
"These are trained assassins. Not only will they commit suicide immediately if their mission fails and they cannot escape.
And they all have poison in their mouths.
Even if caught, he would bite open his mouth and take poison to commit suicide.
It might not be that easy to capture him alive."
Princess Ruyue was not too concerned, knowing that even if she caught these assassins, she probably wouldn't be able to get anything out of them.
These are all dead warriors, and they don't even know the identity and appearance of their masters.
No matter how much I ask, I can't get any useful information.
"Ruyue is absolutely right! There's not much use in capturing these people alive.
At most, they could find someone in the army to pick them up.
But just let Lei Ying handle this little thing. After so many days of investigation, he should have almost finished it."
Li Ye didn't even ask about the relevant matters.
I have great confidence in Thunder Eagle's ability and know that he will investigate everything thoroughly.
Li Ye had just finished speaking.
The tent behind him was suddenly torn apart, and three men in black rushed over and waved at Li Ye.
The blue sky was filled with darts shooting towards him.
With so many hidden weapons launched at once, there was no time to dodge.
Just by looking at the color of the dart, one could tell it was filled with a deadly poison. Even a scratch on the face would kill instantly.
