Chapter 262 Assassins gather
Jixian, in the inn.
Zhao Jia gently sipped a glass of Chinese wine, looked at Jiangqu sitting opposite him, and asked, "What's wrong with the Prime Minister?"
Jiang Qu showed hesitation on his face, pondered for a long time before gritting his teeth and said, "I would like to ask the young master to return to Zhao State as soon as possible!"
During this period, Jiangqu clearly felt that Jixian was in a turmoil. Even though Jiangqu could no longer command the city guards, he knew that more and more Qin people were pouring into Yandu.
Now that the King of Yan is ambiguous, Jiang Qu begins to worry about Zhao Jia's life safety.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Jia held the wine glass and froze in place, and asked, "What news has the Prime Minister found?"
Jiang Qu gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not hiding it from the young master. During this period, a large number of Qin people have poured in Yan. With the wisdom of the young master, it is not difficult to guess the purpose of those Qin people."
"Originally, for the sake of the safety of the prince, I wanted to send the city guards to temporarily expel the Qin people from Yandu, but because of the Du Kang land, the king overthrew the defense of Ji County to Cai Niao."
Speaking of this, Jiang Qu immediately kept silent.
He believed that with Zhao Jia's wisdom, he had guessed what he meant.
As expected, Zhao Jia's pupils shrank slightly when he heard this, and then stood up and bowed: "Jia will never forget the kindness of the prime minister to save his life. If you have the opportunity, you will be rewarded with great retribution!"
However, Jiang Qu waved his hand and said, "For the sake of the present, it is better for the young master to leave Ji County first."
Zhao Jia pondered for a while and suddenly asked, "Has the King of Yan decided to send troops to attack the Du Kang land?"
In the courtyard, Zhao Jia stood with his hands behind his back.
Since leaving the Jiangqu, Zhao Jia has been standing here for a long time, and the border town has always stood on the left and right.
"Border town, notify everyone and prepare to leave Yan State!"
Although the changes in the situation are expected, they are also extending in an uncontrollable direction.
Zhao Jia's use of her body as bait this time can be said to be risking great danger. If he cannot return to Zhao safely, what can he do if the final goal is achieved?
When the border town heard this, he frowned and said, "Stay in the inn, there are Yan troops outside guarding them. No matter how many assassins in the Qin State are, they are not afraid."
"Will leaving Ji County rashly create an opportunity for Qin's assassins?"
According to the idea of the border town, even if the King of Yan had already had the intention of killing Zhao Jia, he would never do it himself. On the contrary, he would try his best to protect Zhao Jia from all over the world.
Therefore, it is safest for Zhao Jia and others to stay in the inn.
Zhao Jia shook his head, "The only one who can save us is ourselves. If we place our hope on Yan army, it is equivalent to seeking death."
"Master!"
As soon as Zhao Jia finished speaking, a guard trotted in and reported loudly: "Yan attacked the Dukang land with the power of the whole country, and the Yan army outside the inn has been transferred!"
When the border town heard this, his expression changed slightly and he thought to himself: "So that's it!"
Originally, in the view of the border town, as long as the Yan army was stationed outside the inn, Zhao Jia naturally did not worry about the attacks of the Qin people.
But now, because of the attack on the Dukang land, Yan State transferred all the troops guarding outside the inn, which was equivalent to creating opportunities for the Qin State assassins in disguise.
Even though Zhao Jia was eventually assassinated at the inn, Yan State had enough reason to entrust the responsibility.
Now, if we continue to pin our hopes on the Yan people, we will be seeking death as Zhao Jia said.
Zhao Jia has always been decisive in his actions.
Upon learning that Yan State had attacked the Du Kang land, Zhao Jia immediately said goodbye to the King of Yan, and after leaving Ji County, he rushed back to Zhao State overnight.
Zhao Jia's actions also really disrupted the Qin people's deployment.
However, this time, Qin and Yan secretly colluded. In order to get rid of Zhao Jia, Qin State even used unimaginable forces for the first time. How could Zhao Jia leave easily?
Zhao Jia had just left Ji County for more than 20 miles, and was first assassinated by more than 30 people.
These assassins were all Guanxi swordsmen. They were all skilled in martial arts and were fearless. In addition, they had been ambushing them and caught Zhao Jia and others off guard by the geographical advantage.
Although Zhao Jia's guards finally wiped out all the assassins, more than ten casualties were injured and killed.
It seems that Zhao Jia's side has fewer casualties than Qin's assassins, but don't forget that these people who can follow Zhao Jia's side are all warriors in the army who can form a battle formation and can defeat enemies that are several times more than themselves.
But now, facing only more than thirty Guanxi assassins, he actually lost more than ten people, which shows how terrifying the other party is.
Zhao Jia's face was gloomy and terrible when he listened to the casualties brought by the border town.
"The body is buried on the spot and continue walking west!"
Zhao Jia could feel that these assassins were just strikers who came to harass him and others, and even more terrifying opponents had not yet appeared.
More than 80 miles west of Ji County, due to the fact that at night and the rush to march, Zhao Jia had to enter the living room for renovation.
Since Yan State was forced to exchange Wuyang for Zhao State, Lishi, a small town built on the water control, has become a western department of Ji County.
Zhao Jia revealed his identity and was naturally warmly welcomed by the guards of the Lishi.
The next day, Zhao Jia said to the Lishi Guard: "We have just left Jixian twenty miles and were attacked by assassins, with more than ten casualties. This is within the territory of Yan State, but we do not want assassins to spread. We hope that the general can send troops to accompany me and protect me back to Zhao State."
The Lishi guards looked embarrassed and said, "In order to regain Dukang's land, the king has recruited soldiers from all over the country. Most of the Lishi guards have been transferred away. Now the Lishi guards can only barely defend the city and have no extra troops to protect the young master."
"If the young master is worried about the assassin's attack, he might as well stay in the living room for a few more days. Although there are not many defenders here, they have city walls as a support. I hope they can protect the young master."
The rejection of the Lishi Guard was long as Zhao Jia expected, but he had his own plans.
"Since that's the case, let's bother the general."
Staying in the living room looks like a turtle in a jar, which will make the assassin catch up with it in a big way, but don’t forget that since Zhao Jia dares to take risks with his own risk, how could he be unprepared?
Jixian County is Yandu, so it is natural that the people of Zhao are not willing to sneak in in large quantities, but the Lishi is different.
The next three days, the entire calendar room was martial law and no one was allowed to enter, so as not to get involved in the assassin.
At this time, assassins had gathered outside Lishi City.
In a dense forest in the southwest, Wang Fugui, Gao Jianli, and Jing Ke brought more than 30 heroes of Yan State, all with solemn expressions on his face.
"This situation is too complicated. I'm afraid that more than the Qin people want to take Prince Jia's life!"
It turned out that Gao Jianli found that in addition to the Qin people lying in ambush outside the Lishi City, there were several groups of unknown swordsmen.
It is still unknown how these people came from. It is very likely that some people want to take advantage of the situation and take the opportunity to assassinate Zhao Jia.
Jing Ke said in a deep voice: "The forces outside the city are too mixed. Before you find out whether they are hostile, don't take action at will to avoid hurting your friendly troops."
At the same time, hundreds of men in black were already ambushed on the road that must be passed in the west of the Lishu.
The man in the leader said with a serious expression: "If it were just three hundred people led by Zhao Jia, it would not be difficult to assassinate him. But now an accident occurs, we should act cautiously!"
