Chapter 66: Linked Killing Moves (2)
Because Zhuge had plans to cooperate with Liu Xun in business, before leaving, he 'entrusted' Huang Yueying to take Liu Xun on a tour of the factory, to strengthen his sense of industry and commerce. After Liu Xun arrived, she personally accompanied him on a tour of the factory.
After a day of turning, she was somewhat tired. Back in the house, she lay down, but her heart couldn't calm down. Seeing Zhuge Liang coming soon, she was both looking forward to it and worried about it. Hopefully, her brothers would return safely.
Zhaoyun and Wang Ben were both seasoned generals who had experienced countless battles. For more and faster chapters, please visit. They commanded their respective troops, using shields to protect the chariots and themselves. The archers immediately began counterattacking.
The ambushers' target was clear, and most of the arrows 'shot' towards the carriage, which then rushed towards the carriage. The soldiers who blocked the carriage were killed or injured, but they still rushed up to protect the carriage with their lives. Many arrow shafts hit the carriage, fortunately being blocked by the thick wooden boards of the carriage compartment.
Due to the narrow mountain path, the escort team was stretched very long, and there were not many soldiers and horses near the carriage. The ambushers quickly rushed to a place closer to the carriage. Zhao Yun and Wang Ping fought to the death to hold them off. The rest of the soldiers also came over one after another, and the danger gradually dissipated.
The number of ambushers was less than that of the guards, and they gradually began to retreat. Zhao Yun and Wang Ping commanded their troops to pursue and kill them. The Zhang sisters performed very bravely, charging forward and killing several ambushers in a row.
The ambushers threw down dozens of corpses and escaped into the mountains. Zhao Yun ordered a halt to the pursuit, and the command quickly passed through this dangerous area.
After a hurried march of about an hour, they finally arrived at the open area, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief. They rested on the spot. At this time, the person sent to Xuwang Village for investigation returned. The identity of that young woman, Dang Shu, was confirmed.
Wang Benpai called over Zhang Shi brother and sister to thank them for their timely discovery and reminder, which reduced the loss of the troops. For more and faster chapters, please go to.
Zhuge Jian also had a good impression of the brother and sister, and wanted to take them under his wing. He asked: "Are there any other people in your household?"
The two siblings respectfully replied: "Our parents passed away two years ago. Now only my brother and I are left."
Zhuge Jian said directly: "I want to keep you two by my side as attendants, are you willing?"
Her brother hesitated and didn't answer. For more and faster chapters, please go to. But his sister happily said: "Brother, our father has long called you out to do things, now following this old master, we can go live in the city. Quickly agree."
When his sister said this, her brother no longer hesitated and knelt down to pay respects to Zhuge Jun, and his sister also knelt down on the ground at the same time.
Zhuge Jun was overjoyed and quickly helped them up. He then called over the head of the household servants and had the brother and sister join them first.
Lying in ambush at a distance, the scout responsible for monitoring Zhuge Liang's troops reported the situation to Sima Yi. He revealed a sinister smile.
In the late afternoon, the escort team arrived at Gaochun County, and County Magistrate Yang Chun had already led the officials and gentry to greet them in front of the city gate.
Yang 'Spring' insisted on treating Zhuge Liang and his party, of course, it was because of Sun Shangxiang's face. For more and faster chapters, please go to. Zhuge Liang also couldn't decline, so he accepted the kindness.
For safety's sake, the banquet was set up inside the county government office. Zhao Yun was very meticulous and had his trusted subordinates supervise the preparation of the dishes, which were then served by his personal soldiers to prevent anyone from poisoning the food.
At the dinner table, Sun Shangxiang mentioned Party Shu's situation, and Yang Chun said he would definitely handle it properly.
Yang "Spring" saw Zhuge Liang's complexion somewhat dull, with few words, and anxiously asked: "Military Advisor Zhuge, are you not feeling well? Do you want to rest in the county government office for a day before leaving?"
Zhuge Liang shook his head and said it was nothing to worry about, thanking Yang Chun for her concern. Book.ha.ha.xiao.shuo.net updated in real-time.
The farewell dinner ended in a relatively dull atmosphere, Yang 'Spring' accompanied Zhuge Liang and others to walk out of the hall, in the courtyard, Zhuge Jun's servants and guards were all standing in the courtyard, ready to escort Zhuge Liang and others out.
Sun Shangxiang called Dang Shu, preparing to entrust her to Yang Chun. For more and faster chapters, please go to. Suddenly, a shout for killing came from the west outside the courtyard, and Zhao Yun immediately ordered everyone to be on guard. At this time, a shout for killing also suddenly came from the east, and everyone's attention was drawn to the east.
No one had expected that the Zhang siblings would suddenly launch a surprise attack, both of them charging at Zhuge Liang with swords drawn. Zhao Yun reacted extremely quickly, not having time to draw his sword, and kicked his brother to the ground. However, his sister's sword was already closing in on Zhuge Liang. At this critical moment, Dang Shun, who was standing beside Sun Shangxiang, blocked the sword with her face, getting stabbed in the left shoulder.
Blocked by this, the guards rushed up and hacked the brother and sister to death.
Dang Shu fell to the ground, unconscious. Zhuge Jun and Sun Shangxiang rushed forward to check on her after she sacrificed herself to save them.
Sun Shangxiang saw that she was unconscious, so he thought of Zhuge Liang's expertise in medicine and asked him to diagnose and treat her. Zhuge Liang walked forward, bent down, and prepared to take her pulse.
Zhao Yun suddenly had a thought, feeling that something was not right. After some deliberation, he thought: "These two are the benefactors who saved Dang Shu's life, and she has no relation to Zhuge Military Advisor, so why would she sacrifice herself to save him?"
Thinking of this, he shouted loudly: "General be careful." Then he rushed forward immediately.
At that moment, Dang Shu, who had been closing his eyes and was about to faint, suddenly opened them and thrust a hairpin into Zhuge Liang's heart with his right hand!
The guards immediately killed Dang Shu, but Zhuge Liang had already fallen to the ground. Zhuge Jun held him in his arms and hastily examined him, the highly toxic poison from the hairpin having taken effect. Zhuge Liang struggled slightly before dying suddenly.
The courtyard was filled with cries.
Simazhi in the distance received the report and burst out laughing: "Zhuge Liang, you demon, finally died at my hands. Hahaha."
This is Sima Yi's linked poisonous plan, first designing to arrange Dang Shu and Zhang Shi brothers and sisters by Zhuge Liang's side, then using ambushes to make Zhang Shi brothers and sisters gain trust, finally sacrificing them, creating opportunities for Dang Shu to approach Zhuge Liang, succeeding in one move.
Although this plan lost the secret base in Xuwan Village and sacrificed nearly a hundred lives, including Dang Shu's, it killed the treacherous Zhuge Liang, making everything worthwhile.
He immediately sent people everywhere to spread the news that Eastern Wu was plotting against Zhuge Liang. He himself returned to Xuchang to report his victory to Cao Cao.
