At this moment, Li Banghua must rush back to the Ministry of War as soon as possible to coordinate the emergency situation. This attack was directed at the Ministry of War. If he doesn't take measures, greater losses will follow.
He was extremely anxious. This was the backlash for them poaching the corner of the Beijing camp. Otherwise, the head of the official department would have been beaten to death by a beggar. Staff companies are making a lot of money by handling the sale of Beijing business identities. Because only they can modify the file.
Military officers across the country are promoted and dismissed, and file management is done by the in-service department.
The powerful Beijing camp that Yang Fan left behind was to be handed over to the nobles. They had already made up their minds and the emperor had no other choice. Now, the Ministry of War's behavior is poaching them.
A group of people quickly passed through Mianmian Alley and took a shortcut to the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War is on the south side of Chang'an Street.
"Don't take the small road, go from Dongdan Commercial Street. Go past Taiji Factory." Li Banghua's voice came from the sedan.
The leading servant, Li Wu, immediately called out and led everyone into the bustling Dongdan Commercial Street.
A thin, yellow-faced man not far away glanced at the U-turned sedan, waved his hand, and led the people away.
Li Banghua had just felt the dangerous atmosphere in the alley ahead. It's too quiet somewhere. The imperial capital is half palace wall and half city tree, and there are birds chirping wherever you go. Even if there is no one around, there are still birds singing happily.
But there was deathly silence ahead. There was no sound.
Li Banghua is a man who has led soldiers and horses. He is familiar with the battlefield and has a keen sixth sense.
A group of people walked quickly on Dongdan Commercial Street. The servant in front pushed away the crowd around him. Don't let anyone get close to the sedan. For bodyguards, the best security measure is to maintain isolation.
Suddenly there was a commotion in the front. A man seemed to have had his money stolen. He grabbed a man and shouted, and people around him immediately gathered around. It is the nature of the people of Ming Dynasty to watch the excitement.
In this era of scarcity of entertainment, as long as there is something exciting to watch, there will be a lot of audiences.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Li Wu, the leader of the servants, shouted loudly.
But no one paid him any attention, and people around him still came forward.
The caught thief shouted loudly: "Who said this is your money? If you call it, it will agree."
"You, you thief, you have bullied others too much. I will never let you off. Come with me to see the official. Go to see the official." An old man shouted breathlessly.
"Everyone, tell me why the money in my bag belongs to this old man. Can you help me see if it can have his family's mark on it." As he said this, the suspected thief grabbed the money in the bag. A handful of copper coins were thrown out in all directions.
Suddenly the crowd exploded. They all rushed to pick up money.
For a time, the crowd became even more unbearable. Li Wu was sweating anxiously. He still can't display the banner of Da Sima, who knows if there are murderers among these people. So many people in the Ministry of War have had trouble.
At the moment when everyone was bending down, six people who were bending down suddenly slapped their hands on the back.
The swordsman, who had been watching with cold eyes, instantly flashed to the door of the sedan.
Six crossbows hidden in the waist, each fired three crossbow arrows. The dense crossbow arrows instantly knocked over the five servants in front. Three crossbow arrows were inserted into Li Wu's body, and all the crossbow arrows fired by an assassin hit him.
The swordsman Cang Lang pulled out his long sword with a sound and swung it. Three crossbow arrows were shot down to the ground. Two crossbow arrows hit the wood of the sedan's frame, causing waves of tremors.
After blocking the sword, the swordsman immediately jumped forward and reached the assassin in a few steps.
With a flick of the sword, the three people's throats were pierced, and blood gurgled out.
The three men behind him immediately pulled out their soft swords from their belts and shook them in the wind. The soft swords trembled straight and stabbed straight into the swordsman's lower body.
Because they were still bending down at this time, the swordsman jumped up to them.
"Qiu Chan, take Da Sima away. Take the small road back home." The swordsman called.
Needless to say, they couldn't reach the Ministry of War. There were already countless people hidden along the way.
No one knows which one is the assassin.
The maid took out the hairpin from her bun, which was clearly a pair of copper water-dividing Emei thorns. She opened the sedan door, picked up Li Banghua and left.
The remaining two bearers of the sedan pulled out two short knives from the bottom of the sedan and cut them off at the back.
The five servants guarding them immediately protected them and rushed sideways to the alley next to them. They were preparing to protect Da Sima from the alley back to Li Mansion.
It will be safe when we arrive at Li Mansion. The Li family has at least a hundred dependents. There are many masters.
At the moment when the swordsman and the three assassins were fighting, the thief grabbed a handful of copper coins and threw them at them.
Qiu Chan's pupils shrank, and in her keen eyes, she could clearly see that the handful of copper coins, although they looked like Chongzhen Tongbao, were new coins minted by His Majesty. Golden yellow sparkles. Very dazzling in the sun.
However, the edges of the high-speed flying copper coins reflected sunlight. Even though there was only a trace, the martial arts practitioners had keen eyesight and could see it clearly.
Copper money dart!
Every copper coin flying at high speed is a copper coin dart with a sharp edge.
Darts are a special kind of weapon in the world of martial arts. There are many sects and schools and countless masters.
In a busy city, using weapons like copper coin darts is extremely powerful. And it's very hidden. Whoever goes out without bringing some copper coins will not arouse others' vigilance at all.
In terms of technique, the money dart is thrown using the force of the wrist.
Judging from the strength of the force, the money dart can slash downwards diagonally or fly far away in a flat plane. Level flight is suitable for far targets, and diagonal flight is suitable for close targets.
It can attack the enemy's eyes, throat, wrists and other parts, which is the key to injuring the enemy. In addition to the size of the wrist, it is also related to the speed of the money dart's rotation in the air.
It's not easy to master this thing. Almost every shot within thirty meters will hit the mark.
The two bearers and two servants were instantly cut off by the overwhelming money darts, and their throats and wrists were cut. The blood in their arteries spurted out more than one meter high.
The cicada instantly danced its Emei thorns, spinning like a flywheel. After a few dings, the money darts shot at her and Li Banghua were shot down.
But the swordsman was dealing with the weak swords of the three assassins. While he stabbed the three assassins to death, his knees and calves were hit by more than a dozen money darts.
Although his long sword was withdrawn urgently and placed in front of his throat, it blocked a money dart that was cutting diagonally towards the carotid artery. But his legs weakened and he fell to his knees.
The old man who was arguing with Thief Tou'er pulled out the soft sword from his belt. The thief pulled out a shovel from his calf, and stabbed at the swordsman one from the left and one from the right at the same time.
The swordsman could no longer move at this time. He gritted his teeth and turned to one side. Avoiding the vital point, he just took the sword. He groaned miserably.
His right arm was as fast as lightning, and he removed the thief leader's arm with one sword stroke.
Seeing the thief leader rolling to the ground, the old man ignored him and rushed towards Qiu Chan.
