The cold in the morning was a bit heavy, and pedestrians occasionally walked by the streets in a hurry. Although there was a war, it had little impact on life in the city. The real problem was that the people were worried about how Cao's army would treat them if they came in. Some people who had been in Mocheng for a long time would bring food to the city walls near the city wall every day to comfort the soldiers in Mocheng.

Zhou Ben walked on the street with a ugly face and looked around with a vigilant look. Any movement would start to scare him.

There is no way, since last night, I have been unlucky. Once or twice, it can be said to be a matter of luck. However, no matter what falls, it will always hit his head. When the bird flies by, there will always be a special feeling. I will give him some special gifts. These things happen one after another. Zhou Ben also doubts whether he is involved in something unclean.

Although the personal guards and generals next to him were following Zhou Ben at this moment, if you look closely, you will find that these people are closest to Zhou Ben, and they are also nervous, which doesn't feel like they are guards, but rather tracking.

Although it was a subconscious action, the performance of these people also made Zhou Ben's face darker.

"This damn Mo City!" Zhou Ben looked at the surrounding scenery at this moment and felt that he didn't like anything. It seemed that after he came to this Mo City, nothing had gone smoothly.

"Ouch~" An elderly man was rushing to the road. I wonder if he was scared by Zhou Ben's expression, or if he accidentally fell in front of Zhou Ben and blocked Zhou Ben's way.

"Get out!" Zhou Ben was in a bad mood and had no desire to respect the elderly and love the young at this moment. Seeing someone falling, he kicked out impatiently, and wanted to kick the old man away and continue moving forward.

As a military general, he was naturally Kong Wu strong. He was angry and wanted to kick it. If he wanted to kick it, not to mention the old man, even if he was a young man, he would have to leave half his life even if he didn't die. However, the old man who was originally looking slow on the ground suddenly became flexible. The moment the other person kicked out, he suddenly rolled on the ground. While avoiding it, his hands suddenly poked out and hugged the other person's ankle.

"Puff~"

With a muffled sound, Zhou Ben felt a chill in his legs, and then a piercing pain swept across his body in an instant. There was a short sword in the old man's hand. The moment he hugged the other person's ankle, the short sword pierced directly into Zhou Ben's calf.

"Ao~" Amid the heart-wrenching screams, Zhou Ben tried his best to retract his legs, sat down on the ground, pointed at the man dressed as an old man and shouted loudly: "Kill me!"

Almost at the same time, several figures emerged from one side, each holding a short sword or a short sword, ignoring the guards who rushed up to see this, and slashed at Zhou Ben who was sitting on the ground.

The smell of blood was permeating the somewhat empty streets. The originally sporadic pedestrians around had already avoided the terrible cry here, so as not to cause trouble.

Poor Zhou Ben is also a general under Liu Qi, but at this moment he died in such a cowardly manner at the hands of several assassins. The generals and personal guards in the rear surrounded the assassins. Some went to the military camp to call people, and some went to the direction of the yamen to ask Liu Yi to deal with the matter. The scene was in chaos.

...

"Diet!?" Liu Yi was surprised when he heard the news of Zhou Ben's death. The attributes he gave him were not as powerful as that, right?

"Yes, my general is going to the city to support the sir today, but I don't know when many assassins appeared in the city. I suddenly assassinated halfway. My general didn't investigate and was assassinated in the street by those thieves!" The person who came to report the news was a general. The assassin looked heartbroken and questioned a little.

Liu Yi narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard this. Although he knew that Zhou Ben would be in trouble, the assassin should not be considered to have been found by Zhu Qin. He remembered the detailed works of Cao's army who had infiltrated. He wanted to investigate secretly, but during this period, Cao Ren, then Xiahou Dun, and then Cao's army attacked, which also made Liu Yi not have time to care about these detailed works. He only strengthened the guards around him and did not give these detailed works an opportunity to take advantage of them.

only……

"I remember that General Zhou had a large number of guards on his side when he entered and exited. Even if he suddenly attacked, several assassins should not be able to assassinate him!" Liu Yi looked at the general in confusion.

There are only a dozen guards who accompany me every day, and I don’t dare to take action by those careful actions. There are more people accompanying Zhou Ben. He is also a general, so why is it so unhealthy?

"This..." The general didn't know what to say.

Could it be that Zhou Ben has been so unlucky these two days that they unconsciously opened the distance between them and Zhou Ben, which led to the fact that when the assassin appeared, they had no time to rescue him in time. In addition, the assassin's appearance was too tricky, so Zhou Ben was so obsessed?

This means that their guard is not good.

Liu Yi glanced at the general, guessed something, and did not ask again, but stood up and said, "Have those assassins captured?"

"It has been captured." The general nodded.

"Go and see!" Liu Yi stood up. He ordered Wei Yue to take people to mount a ship along the river to harass the flanks of Cao's army and give Zhao Yun support. The Cao army outside the city did not attack the city. He was very idle today and happened to see what Zhou Ben was doing. Zhou Ben died. This was a good thing, but the other party died in Mocheng. If this is really pursued, it is still responsible. What he was most worried about was that the Jiangxia army counted Zhou Ben's death on his head. That was not a good thing. It was both public and private, and he could not avoid it at this time.

Those assassins who were not professional in detail just wanted to relieve some pressure for Cao's army outside, and decided to assassinate Zhou Ben. The process went unexpectedly, but after the assassination, it was too late to escape. Zhou Ben's personal guards and Jiang Xia soldiers who later came from the barracks surrounded them, and they had no time or opportunity to escape. When Liu Yi arrived at the scene, there were only two left alive, and they were all dying.

Liu Yi looked at Zhou Ben's body. When he saw the corpse, his reaction was not that great. At this moment, he saw Zhou Ben's body, not only did he not feel uncomfortable, but he felt a sense of darkness, but his face looked sad and sighed: "How could this be so?"

The soldiers of Jiangxia obviously did not buy it. Liu Yi’s previous worries were not unreasonable. Zhou Ben died in Mocheng this time, and the two sides were not happy before, so it was easy for people to think that Liu Yi was dissatisfied with Zhou Ben and secretly sent someone to assassinate him. After all, this is Mocheng, and it is easy for Liu Yi to do this.

The key to the problem is still the Cao army's careful work. How to make these people admit their identities and make Jiangxia soldiers believe that this is a problem.
