After paying homage to Zhou Yu, Zhao Yi and Sun Shangxiang moved into the mansion arranged by Lu Su. As soon as they were ready to rest, someone came to report that Wu Guotai heard that her daughter was back and missed her very much, so she wanted to take her to the mansion for a visit.
"Is mother also coming to Chaisang? Okay, I'll leave now."
As soon as Sun Shangxiang heard that he could see his mother, he immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
But at this moment, Zhao Yi suddenly raised his hand and said: "Wait a minute, Xiaoxiang, you are pregnant now and it is quite inconvenient to walk. It is better to let Xiaoling accompany you."
After Zhao Yi finished speaking, he winked at Lu Lingqi, who nodded and followed Sun Shangxiang, regardless of whether the other party answered or not.
"If you want to follow, just follow. I'm just going to see my mother. There's nothing to worry about."
Zhao Yi didn't say anything to the soldiers who came to deliver the message. He just told Sun Shangxiang to be careful with a smile.
After Sun Shangxiang left, the smile on Zhao Yi's face immediately turned cold.
"Ma Liu."
"Boss."
"Tell the brothers to take the time to rest. I'm afraid our life tonight will not be peaceful."
"yes!"
Although Ma Liu didn't understand the danger, he still firmly conveyed Zhao Yi's order.
On the outskirts of Chaisang City, in an inconspicuous house.
"Grand Governor, everything is under your control. The third lady has been picked up. There are only Zhao Yi and a few of his soldiers in the house now."
Lu Xun stood respectfully behind a figure, reporting Zhao Yi's every move.
"Very good... Boyan, it's rare for you to have such awareness at such a young age... Cough cough cough... Don't worry, whatever the lord gives you is what you deserve. This time I just want to use my last moments to do something for Jiangdong... This Zhao Yi and Zhao Hongfei are more dangerous than Liu Bei and must be eradicated as soon as possible."
The figure covered his mouth and coughed a few more times as he spoke, and then turned around. It was the late Governor of Jiangdong, Zhou Yu.
It turned out that Zhou Yu was not dead at all, and the target was not Liu Bei, but Zhao Yi.
As for the unlucky guy he put in the coffin, he was a spy placed by Sun Quan next to Zhou Yu.
Lu Xun had never betrayed Zhou Yu, and everything he did was under the latter's instruction.
"Then, Governor, I will let someone do it tonight?"
"Ahem... Well, let's go ahead and do it. No one will disturb the situation this time."
Lu Xun was ordered to retreat. Zhou Yu covered his mouth and nose and coughed violently again. He finally stopped and saw that his palms were bright red.
"Wait a little longer...wait a little longer...at least let me see Zhao Yi's head with my own eyes...I will die with no regrets... Cough cough cough..."
Lu Xun not only obtained Zhou Yu's order, but also obtained the latter's core strength - the Shadow Guard.
In the mansion where Zhao Yi was resting, even the chef in the back kitchen was nowhere to be seen.
The autumn wind was blowing in the courtyard, and there was no trace of the cats or dogs, as if no one was living there.
Ma Liu and others, who had taken the time to rest during the day, were all gathered around Zhao Yi's house at this moment, with their rifles loaded and on alert at all times.
Suddenly, a dark cloud drifted across the sky, covering up the not-so-bright moonlight.
The next moment, in the dark night mansion, the sound of breaking through the air was heard intensively, and clusters of hidden arrows crossed the courtyard wall and shot directly into the windows of the main house.
"Swish swish~~"
"Dang Dang Dang~!"
The dense arrows hit the riot shield, but could not shake it even a little.
But tonight's attackers seemed to be well prepared. After a hail of arrows, several huge siege crossbows were aimed at the windows of the main house.
"My mother, brothers, get down!"
Ma Liu saw this scene from the arrow hole in the window and was so frightened that he shouted for everyone to lie down.
Before that, when Zhao Yi was training them, he had explained what kind of attacks could be resisted and what kind of attacks should be avoided as far away as possible, and this siege crossbow was one of them.
The huge crossbow arrows with terrifying power directly destroyed all the window frames and doors of the main house. Two of them even shot through the wall and were nailed to the wall on the other side. The beams of the house shook as if they were about to fall apart the next moment. To collapse.
Ma Liu and others lay on the ground with their heads in their hands, buried under the sawdust and dust falling from the roof, and did not dare to move.
The crossbow shooting stopped, and what followed was the sound of numerous feet stepping on the roof tiles.
Dead warriors dressed in dark red attire swarmed in one after another, and their murderous aura even forced back the dark clouds in the sky.
"Bah, bah, bah! His grandma's...brothers, fight back!"
Ma Liu raised his head, spat out a few mouthfuls of sawdust, and loudly ordered to fire back.
The bullets from ten automatic rifles collided head-on with those fearless shadow guards, instantly tearing those at the front into pieces.
The furious fire snake illuminated the originally dark room like a ballroom, and the light flashed frequently, like a colored light ball hanging on the ceiling.
The blood was flying all over the sky under the light produced by the fire snake, which was strange and gorgeous.
The shadow guards rushed in and were beaten to death. After a while, all the doors and windows of the house were tightly blocked.
"Damn...it's almost time boss, let's retreat!"
Seeing that the entire house was about to be overrun by them, Ma Liu decisively ordered a retreat.
Although he wanted to stick to the official residence at first, after all, it took less than a day for my pride to be able to conquer the world with a gun in my hand.
But reality taught him a lesson, letting him know that even if he holds the weapons of the Immortal Family, he is still threatened by numbers and a sense of belief.
Fortunately, Zhao Yi had already told them to retreat when they saw that they couldn't do anything, and he also selected the retreat route and rendezvous point in advance.
Once they decided to retreat, all the soldiers kicked down the wall near the outer street without any delay, filed out in an orderly manner, and began to disappear into the huge and silent city of Chaisang.
"Tap tap tap tap~"
The shadow guards did not hesitate at all because Ma Liu and others escaped. They left the bodies of their companions and rushed forward immediately.
Ma Liu and his men fought and retreated, half holding shields, and the other half maintaining fire suppression during the operation.
Soon, the continuous explosions in the official residence alarmed the people and patrol soldiers in the city, and they all asked about the source of the sound.
"Ahem, cough...has it already started?"
In a house, Zhou Yu put away the cotton cloth used to wipe the blood from the corners of his mouth, exhaled and muttered to himself: "Zhao Yi... Since Yu is born, how can Yi be born...!"
Zhou Yu's voice of emotion had just finished, but he suddenly turned his head and looked at the courtyard door.
"Bang~!"
There was a loud noise, the door collapsed, and a figure quickly flashed into it, raising his hand and receiving a hail of bullets.
"Um?!"
Although Zhou Yu was seriously ill, his reaction was much better than that of ordinary people. The moment someone kicked the door, he had already turned around and ran to the backyard.
"Grand Governor~~~ How can I not chat with an old friend when he comes? I, Zhao Yi, believe in 'it is inappropriate to come and go without reciprocating'. Since you have arranged everything for me, then I have nothing to hide. You arranged it All the guards outside have been taken care of, and no one can save you tonight."
"Zhao Yi? You...why are you here?! Cough cough cough cough -!"
