When Wang Wu realized that the cold light she saw was a sharp short knife, the edge of that knife had already touched her palm.

The cold feeling runs from the bottom of the thumb up to the entire palm.At the same time, a strong force pushed in from outside the door.Wang Wu's attention had just shifted from the firelight on the window lattice to the door, and she was caught off guard for a moment, and was thrown backwards with the sound of the wooden door being knocked open.

The night wind whistling outside the door poured straight into the house, and the light that was as small as a bean in the house went out without a trace without even struggling.

Wang Wu's footsteps were unsteady, and she stumbled and fell directly on the screen, knocking down a plain wooden screen with a "boom".At the same time, she also happened to see the flames blowing up into the sky in the gust of wind, illuminating the night like day.Thick smoke billowed in all directions, people shouted and neighed, dozens of well-trained war horses rushed around like crazy, scattered the guards who had surrounded them, and separated them far away.

It turned out that the place where the horses were fed was on fire!

In the blink of an eye, a tall and thin figure bowed his back and shrunk his shoulders. He also rushed in from the outside like a cat, but closed the wooden door that had been knocked open with his backhand.

His hands and feet were quick and his movements were flexible, but he made no sound. Obviously he didn't rush in because he was panicked by the frightened horses outside.

Wang Wu didn't even have time to think about the purpose of the visitor, she just relied on her intuition for danger, regardless of the heavy screen almost falling on her back, she withdrew her hand and raised the arm crossbow that she carried with her.

The clamor and noise was like thunder rolling under the clouds, covering up the two "chi chi" sounds of crossbow arrows leaving the string.

One shot at a person, one shot at a window.

Following the man's cry of pain, a feathered arrow the length of his forearm swished out of the window.A ray of bright fire seemed to pour in from the hole with boiling temperature, and the whole room was suddenly brightened.

In front of the room door, a man with a hooked nose twisted his thin and sharp face, and the snow-white fox fur that was pressing on his shoulders was faintly red.

As if dazed by the light that suddenly appeared in the room, he subconsciously narrowed his eyes and slightly tilted his head.

However, with just this deviation, Wang Wu had already stabilized her body, holding the crossbow machine firmly in her hand, and the iron arrowheads with arrow tips exposed outside the crossbow machine seemed to be shining brightly in the firelight.

This arm crossbow is different from the one she used before. She asked the craftsman to modify it deliberately according to the diagram of the crossbow.The arm crossbow was already small, but if it was fitted with a ten-arrow arrow box and a machine spring, it would inevitably be too heavy, even if it could barely be lifted, it would be impossible to aim and shoot.So she made the arrow box smaller and the arrow groove shorter.In this way, although the shooting range will be greatly reduced, it can shoot multiple shots with one crossbow.For the arm crossbow, which is originally used for self-defense and emergency rescue, surprise is obviously more important.

For example now.

The man's face was already too thin, his cheeks were visible behind his ears, and he looked cruel and vicious.He stared closely at Wang Wu's arm crossbow, his eyes were dark and deep.

Wang Wu's arm crossbow is superior in its exquisiteness, but its power is actually extremely limited.Although he was accidentally hit by an arrow, judging from the depth of the arrow's penetration into the flesh and the pain it caused, he already knew the pros and cons of this arm crossbow.

The size of the arrow box on the crossbow is limited, and it can hold no more than five arrows at most.If he hadn't tilted his head just now when the flames were in full bloom, and gave Wang Wu a chance to stand firm, even if she still had three arrows that hadn't been shot, he would still have the pain to endure a few more arrows and kill her in one fell swoop. Take it!

Wang Wu's first arrow did miss, but she didn't stand still at that time, she just pulled the spring according to the direction determined by the last glance before the door closed.If she had time to stand firm and aim, who can say that she would still be inaccurate!

Because of this, the man didn't dare to move lightly!

Wang Wu exhaled slowly, but couldn't hide her trembling breath.

Her arm crossbow, in order to carry lightly, has only three arrows in total.

One was on the man's shoulder, the other shot through the pane and drew the firelight, and the one now resting in the arrow slot is the last one.

From the moment she saw the flames, she fell, raised her crossbow, and raised a rabbit, almost exerting her physical fitness honed in the past few years to the extreme.The opponent's figure and her crossbow were exposed to the flames at the same time, and in the stalemate, she felt a burning pain in the palm of her right hand.

The wound cut by the short knife seemed to be very deep, and the blood kept gushing out with her movements, and soon stained the crossbow machine bloody.

At this time, I knew that I should clench my fist immediately and wrap the wound with a cloth to prevent excessive blood loss.However, Wang Wu is used to using her right hand. Under the man's viper-like gaze, she dared not relax at all, let alone bandaging the wound, even if she switched the crossbow to her left hand, she did not dare to think about it. She could only use Do your best to focus on the crossbow in your hand.

The guards who were separated outside finally controlled the situation, and the noisy neighing of horses gradually subsided, only the flames remained undiminished, with arrogance.

The awe-inspiring voice of the pro-guards leading the conversation with someone just now was clear to the ear.

"No one is allowed to approach!" The man also noticed the movement outside, and suddenly shouted in a deep voice, but his eyes were still fixed on Wang Wu's arm crossbow, and he couldn't leave for a moment, "You go to the county mansion to spread the word, if Zhao Zilong can't mention Gongsun When Kang’s leader comes to see me, I will die with the daughter of General Baima, let’s see how he will explain to Gongsun Zan when he returns!”

As soon as this remark came out, it was like a flash of inspiration, and Wang Wu suddenly thought of a person: "You are Gongsun Gong?" At this time, the only one who dares to make such a big claim to kill Gongsun Kang in the border of Liaodong is him, who is unwilling to be subordinate to others bro.

Gongsun Du of Liaodong had two sons.Gongsun Kang is the eldest son, while Gongsun Gong is his stepwife and first son.The eldest son is not a concubine, but Gongsun Du suddenly fell ill and passed out, so there is this extremely clichéd but enduring power struggle.

Seeing that the eldest brother invited Zhao Yun to help out, he felt dissatisfied, so he took advantage of the banquet to find Wang Wu...

Wang Wu can understand this logic very well, but...how did he know her identity?

Wang Wu took a deep breath and forced herself to suppress the messy thoughts in her head.

Let's deal with what's in front of us first.

The guards outside the house who had just approached here stopped immediately when they heard Gongsun Gong's shout.However, at the next moment, 25 strong bows, bows like a full moon, all passed through the part of the window pane that was shot by the arm crossbow.

The murderous intent is like a mountain.It was obvious that the flames had already reflected half of the night sky red, and the scorching temperature was blowing towards the face with the wind, but the murderous intent arose in the sky on the arrow's edge made the room instantly cool down.

The fire was too strong, and the county mansion was not too far from the official post. Gongsun Kang should have discovered the abnormality here by now.If it takes a while longer, there will be more than these 25 bows.

For a moment, Gongsun Gong was sweating heavily, and his voice seemed a little lacklustre: "It is absurd to marry with the same surname. As soon as Gongsun Kang dies, my lord Liaodong will immediately offer gold, jade and rations to make an appointment with your father." Meng, since you don't want you to marry far away in Liaodong, Gongsun Zan doesn't have to worry about Liaodong's discord, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds!"

"Who said I'm going to marry Liaodong?" Wang Wu held the arm crossbow in her right hand, and the elbow of her right hand in her left hand. The left elbow resting on her waist moved slightly, and suddenly she smiled.

Since the other party already knew her identity, there was no need for her to deny it: "Zilong governs the army, and the military orders are like mountains, and orders must be followed."

Gongsun Gong didn't understand the connection between the two sentences before and after her for a while, so he couldn't help being slightly taken aback, but the strangeness in Wang Wu's second sentence made him shiver for no reason.

Sure enough, Wang Wu's voice paused, and her voice suddenly rose: "All generals listen to the order and let the arrows go!"

Just as the word "letting the arrow" came out, she pulled the spring, and the last arrow in the arm crossbow was shot through the air following her words.

The strong wind howled in his ears, Gongsun Gong turned sideways, and turned the dagger in his hand upwards.Gongsun Gong's reaction was not unpleasant when he suddenly moved his figure under the direct point of 25 strong bows.As soon as the back of the knife hit the short arrow, he immediately withdrew and rushed behind Wang Wu.

As long as Wang Wu is standing in front of him, even if the military order is like a mountain, even if all arrows are fired, he can still earn a moment of life.

Wang Wu had been waiting for this moment.

Immediately after the arrow was shot, he threw away the arm crossbow, took a step forward, and collided with Gongsun Gongzheng.At the same time, with a flip of his left hand, the dagger hidden under the clothes at his waist went straight down, without even flashing a cold light, it disappeared into Gongsun Gong's body.

***

The flames were burning outside, Zhao Yun was sitting in the county mansion, but he didn't know it.

All of a sudden, a rush of horns pierced the sky, faintly revealing the meaning of killing, and suppressed all the cheers and greetings for a moment.

"What's going on!" Gongsun Kang was in high spirits for the banquet, he was startled, his hand trembled, and he almost dropped the lacquer cup in his hand.Just as he was about to make people watch, he saw Zhao Yun's complexion suddenly changed. He stood up abruptly, took the short table down, and pushed aside the half-drunk wine jug.

"Zilong..." Gongsun Kang also changed his face slightly.

However, Zhao Yun didn't even bother to take another look at Zhao Yun, and rushed out directly.

This is the horn of his personal defense against the enemy!

When I got out of the door, I saw a line of thick smoke covering the lead clouds, and the stars and the moon were paled by the raging fire.And that direction is the official station!

Zhao Yun had a banquet, but the guards he brought with him stood outside the door just in case.Seeing flames coming from the direction of the official post, he blew the horn to lure Zhao Yun out.

It was more or less Zhao Yun's intention to leave Wang Wu in the official post.Whether it was because of the "accident" that Wang Wu pretended to be a female singer, or the thought that Gongsun Zan had married Wang Wu to Gongsun Kang, no matter what, he did not want Wang Wu to appear in front of Gongsun Kang.

Thinking about the current situation in Liaodong, Gongsun Du's suppression of his two sons is obviously much better than Yuan Shao's.In fact, there is no chaos at all between two brothers who have no soldiers and no power.Under such circumstances, if they hadn't wanted to take advantage of Liaodong's proximity to the sea and become horns with Qingzhou, Liaodong would slowly consume itself in this brotherly struggle, let alone become Youzhou's future troubles, how to protect itself is the top priority.

This is why Zhao Yun dared to bring Wang Wu to Liaodong together.However, this should have been a trip without any surprises or dangers, but now it was a fire that soared into the sky, almost burning his whole heart into it.
