A loud explosion deafened the assassin's ears, and a black smoke mixed with flying sparks suddenly came out of the iron pipe, making his vision black instantly. At the same time, his head seemed to be hit hard by a huge hammer. , leaning back uncontrollably, his consciousness disappeared in an instant.
From beginning to end, he didn't even have any nerve reflexes, and he didn't even have time to wonder "what is this?" in his mind...
Falling to the ground with a crash.
Fang Jun held the musket in his hand, raised his arm, and maintained the shooting posture. It took a long time before he let out a breath.
so close!
The assassination was so cunning that the men in black outside were all fakes, and the real assassins had already been lurking around him when they left the royal city. While everyone's attention was attracted by the fierce fighting outside, he finally A thunderous strike.
If he hadn't had a musket to defend himself, he might have been caught off guard...
"boom!"
The carriage door was violently pulled open from the outside. Wei Ying stuck his head in and asked quickly: "Master Marquis, are you okay?"
The explosion of the musket fire had already scared Wei Ying and others out of their wits. If there was no danger in the carriage, how could Fang Jun shoot rashly? At this moment, seeing that Fang Jun was safe and sound, he breathed a long sigh of relief. Then he saw the charioteer lying on the floor with his arms stretched out, and his heart suddenly tightened!
Careless!
He actually only focused on the menacing men in black outside and completely forgot about this charioteer...
Fang Jun had just calmed down from the shock. He silently put away his musket, got up from the floor and jumped out of the carriage. Seeing the dense corpses of men in black around him, he asked in a deep voice: "How are the casualties among the brothers?"
When encountering an assassination, the first thing is not to trace the origin of the assassin, but to care about the safety of those around you...
All the soldiers felt warm in their hearts, and their waists suddenly became straighter!
Wei Ying stepped forward and said: "No one was killed, but nine brothers were injured. Fortunately, they are not serious. The assassins' weapons are too weak to penetrate our leather armor."
Goguryeo has been at war with the Han people since ancient times. Although they lost more than they won, they were eventually driven to the peninsula step by step. However, the Han people did learn a lot of technology and their iron smelting skills were inferior. After all, they could still forge their own weapons. However, Baekje and Silla are extremely backward in this regard. They can only smelt iron through the most primitive methods. The quality of the smelted iron can be imagined. It is either too soft and the cutting edge is not sharp enough, or it is too hard and the cutting edge is not sharp enough. The body is easily broken.
The leather armor equipped by Fang Jun's soldiers is by no means made of simple leather, but conforms to the leather armor. It is extremely difficult for the Tang Army's standard horizontal sword to cut through without sufficient frontal force.
Not to mention the Silla people's iron weapons, which were as soft as noodles, or their heavy bronze swords...
"Is there anyone alive?"
Fang Jun took two steps forward and frowned slightly as he looked at the scattered corpses.
Wei Ying shook his head and said solemnly: "No one is alive."
As he spoke, he stretched out his foot and kicked a corpse in front of him over, turned it upside down, pointed at the dark face of the corpse and said: "Either be killed, or commit suicide by taking poison. The poison is usually hidden in the mouth or On the collar, after taking it, he was killed on the spot. These were no ordinary assassins. They were all carefully trained dead soldiers. Such a large number of dead soldiers was not something ordinary people could do. In a place as big as Silla , there are definitely not many people who can have such strength!"
Fang Jun lowered his head and glanced twice, then raised his head. There were chaotic footsteps in the distance in the direction of the royal city. It was obvious that the imperial guards of the royal city had discovered the situation here and were rushing over.
Fang Jun raised his hand and ordered: "No one is allowed to come near. Anyone who dares to damage the scene will be killed without mercy!"
"Here!"
Wei Ying drew out his horizontal sword and formed a line with his soldiers. He raised the sharp horizontal sword diagonally with murderous intent.
Fang Jun stopped another soldier and said: "Go back to the ship quickly and order Wang Xuance to lead a thousand soldiers to come here. The rest are not allowed to go ashore or sleep. I have my eyes wide open. Beware of someone attacking the fleet at night." !”
"Here!"
This may not be big, but as a commander, you must guard against any possible danger...
After the soldier got the order, Sayazi ran towards the dock.
Fang Jun stood with his hands behind his hands, and there were many figures in the darkness. The guards of the Silla King's City who were getting closer and closer were shouting and making a noise.
Who ate the leopard's gall and wanted to kill me?
After receiving the notification, the Royal Guards dispatched hundreds of people and hurriedly rushed to the scene of the assassination. Everyone knew how important Fang Jun's identity was. Once he died in the capital of Silla, no one could know what he would have to endure. How monstrous is Don's rage!
Yanchuan was fully armored, with a sword in his hand, and a flower quill on the left side of his helmet. The soldiers closest behind him were similarly dressed, obviously different from ordinary guards.
This is Silla's unique "Hwarang", a force that does not belong to the court but is loyal to the royal family!
Jin Yushin and Changchuan were both leaders of "Hwarang". Changchuan became the leader of "Hwarang" at the age of fifteen, and his martial arts skills impressed everyone.
The origin of "Hwarang" is unknown, but the allegiance of "Hwarang" in the past generations has always been the royal princess. Until the previous royal princess became the current Queen Seondeok, Amcheon became the commander of the forbidden army and a famous figure in the army. , the status of "Hwarang" has naturally increased.
Now, the object of allegiance of "Hwarang" is Queen Seondeok's cousin, Kim Seungman, the daughter of King Gemun, the younger brother of the previous King Jinpyeong of Silla. And Kim Seung-man’s mother is a descendant of Park Hyuk Jue, the founding king of Silla, and she is also the legitimate daughter of the Park family who is on par with the Kim family...
Queen Seondeok has no husband, and naturally has no heirs. The direct bloodline of the Kim family is almost cut off. If nothing unexpected happens, Queen Seondeok will eventually pass the throne to her cousin, and there are two families, Kim and Park. Jin Shengman, whose family bloodline is integrated into one body, will definitely receive support from everyone in Silla.
Trusted and favored by two queens, "Hwarang" is arrogant and arrogant!
However, when Changchuan led the "Hwarang" and the imperial guards in a hurry out of the palace and came to the assassination site, they found that they were facing the Tang army blocking the way...
Yan Chuan looked through Tang Jun and looked at the corpses lying scattered on the street. His pupils shrank slightly, and he stepped forward and shouted sternly: "I have been ordered by the Queen to protect the safety of the Marquis. Please get out of the way quickly." the way!"
Wei Ying held a horizontal knife in his hand and said in a cold voice: "The Marquis has an order that no one can come even half a step closer to the scene, otherwise they will be suspected of destroying the scene."
Anchuan was furious, pointed his halberd and yelled: "How reckless! This is the capital of Silla. It is our duty to investigate the case and arrest the assassins. You are all foreigners. How dare you overstep your authority and participate randomly? I'm warning you, get away quickly. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude!”
How could Wei Ying be afraid of him?
These personal soldiers have always been accustomed to being arrogant and arrogant after following Fang Jun. Which of the Linyi royal family and the Japanese royal family didn't just nod and bow in front of Fang Jun, and let them be scolded?
You Silla royal family are nothing!
He looked sternly, looked at Yanchuan, and said word by word: "The Marquis has an order, anyone who dares to trespass will be killed without mercy!"
"Kill without mercy!"
The people beside him shouted in unison, raising the horizontal sword in their hands, the cold light of the sword flickering, filled with murderous intent!
Yan Chuan almost died of anger!
I know that Tang Jun has always been arrogant, but should he be so arrogant? !
This is Jincheng!
It’s the capital of Silla!
His eyes were spitting fire, he pulled out his sword with a "choking" sound, and said sternly: "This is the capital of Silla. Do you want to start a war between Tang Dynasty and Silla?"
All the soldiers of Fang Jun were unmoved, their eyes were stern, and their hands holding the swords tightened.
The meaning is very clear, if you dare to take a step forward, kill on the spot!
It doesn’t matter if you are a senior official of Silla!
It doesn’t matter whether you are the capital of Silla or not!
The military order is like a mountain, no matter who is in front of you, even if the Queen of Silla is standing here, if you dare to take a step forward, you will be killed!
Anchuan's lungs were almost bursting with anger. Who dared to be so rude to him in this three-acre land of Silla?
But he really didn't dare to step forward.
The fierce soldiers on the opposite side looked at each other with eagle eyes, and their fierceness was revealed from the very bones. He was sure that if he took another step forward, those sharp swords would definitely chop down his head!
But if you are just scared, how can you lose face?
The "Hwarangs" under his command are all watching. How will he convince the public in the future?
While he was hesitating, he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps behind him. Jin Yuxin was already fully armored and strode over. Behind him was the queen's chariot carrying a yellow umbrella...
Yan Chuan quickly took the opportunity to push aside and watched the queen pass by in her chariot, but was still blocked by the Tang army!
Now Yanchuan is really angry!
The Lord humiliated his ministers and died, let alone a general like him who relied on the queen's favor to gain a foothold in the court?
Yan Chuan's eyes were red, he stepped forward with a knife and shouted: "You are bullying others too much! Kill me, my sons!"
