Lord of Riders

Chapter 143: Virginia Crisis

Shao Yu was caught off guard and was hit by a dark arrow.

"Protect the boss!" Cage quickly surrounded Shao Yu with shadow guards

For the convenience of the road, Shao Yu and others came out as merchants, so Cage also referred to Shao Yu as his boss.

The dark arrow shot in from the outside, and even the always cautious, sharp-eyed shadow guards did not notice the existence of the assassin. They only discovered the danger when they knew that Shao Yu had been shot.

The crossbow bolt hit the three fingers under Shao Yu's shoulder, but the crossbow bolt was not powerful and did not penetrate. Shao Yu vaguely felt the danger when the arrow came, and quickly dodged, but he still couldn't avoid it, but fortunately he was not hit.

The shadow guards saw that Shao Yu was attacked and several people protected Shao Yu, and the others chased out in the direction where the crossbow shot came. Shao Yu was shocked by the fact that he was attacked under the protection of twenty shadow guards. Night attack is also a strong point of shadow guards. He has extraordinary observation ability, and he has not been able to spot the assassin in advance. Must be a professional assassin.

Cage took people out to hunt for a long time, but he could not find the assassin. As it was too late today, there was a dark area everywhere. In the huge city of Harma, there was no way to track the hidden assassin. Fearing that Shao Yu would be attacked again, Cage quickly returned to the tavern.

Shao Yu sent someone to find a doctor to pull out the crossbow and arrow for himself, treat the wound, and put wound medicine on it. Just rested in the guest room in the pub. It didn't take long for Cage and others to return to the tavern.

"How about it, did Cage find out who the other party is?" Shao Yu asked

"I didn't find it, Boss, I didn't even see a personal image" Cage said with ashamed.

Cage is now very self-blame in his heart. As Shao Yu's confidant guard, he actually neglected his duty to let the assassin succeed in a sneak attack.

"Well, I didn't notice the existence of an assassin this time. They are professional. It seems that we are being targeted! You don't have to blame yourself. The secret arrow is hard to prevent." Comfort road

"Yes, boss, I will arrange to strengthen the guards" Cage finally felt better after hearing Shao Yu's words, nodded and said to Shao Yu

"Well, let the brothers pay attention to safety, a group of three," Shao Yu also specifically ordered

Although I don't know who started on him, Shao Yu can be sure that he is being targeted. He was in the tavern, and there were many guards by his side. The opponent was definitely not here for his belongings. Long-range sniping would definitely kill him.

The place where the assassin lurked was far away from Shao Yu, so when he hit Shao Yu, he didn't have much penetrating power. It seems that the opponent's crossbow shooting technique is very unusual.

Shao Yu also offended many people in the process of getting started, but this was the first time he was assassinated. Shao Yu recalled that it was possible to send people to assassinate his forces, of which the Kujit Khanate was the most likely. But there were not many insiders who came out this time, only the Rhodoks and his vassals. Is it because someone is trying to rebel, or is it a conspiracy by the Rhodoks? Shao Yu didn't have any clue after thinking about it. It seems that only by finding a way to catch the assassin can we know the details.

The shadow guard lurked around the tavern to protect Shao Yu, but the opponent did not act again. The night was unharmed, and the next day Shao Yu and others rested in Harma for another day. After all, Shao Yu still had injuries on his body. Riding bumps would inevitably not be conducive to the healing of the wounds. At the same time, Shao Yu wanted to see if the assassin would come again.

Anyway, the things that need to be dealt with have already been sent to Elaine and Jamila, and the visit to Griffiths doesn't care about the time of these two days.

On the second day of Shao Yu’s rest in Harma, a herder riding a fast horse came to Harma’s tavern

"Does your boss still need furs?" The herder found Cage and said

"Leather goods? What kind of leather, do you have wild wolf leather?" Cage asked

"I have snow wolf skin" the herder replied

"Oh, snow wolf skin, good, go talk to our boss," Cage said

The herder nodded, and Shadow Guard took the herder to meet Shao Yu.

After Shao Yu was assassinated, Shao Yu booked the guest room on the top floor of the tavern to facilitate guards, beware of assassins, and prevent others from hearing their conversations.

"Your Majesty" entered Shao Yu's room, and the herder hurriedly saluted Shao Yu

"Well, okay, let's talk about important things" Shao Yu motioned to the herdsmen to exempt the gift and said

"Yes, Your Majesty! The latest news from the Kingdom of Vegia. The Lord of Sweden was defeated. Twenty thousand horses were eaten by pirates. The Lord of Sweden fled. Several lords of the Kingdom of Vegia were beheaded by pirates. Maliga The lord was also attacked by pirates in the Kulao area, and has led his army back to Zivadin. In addition, Marli has added more than 10,000 soldiers. The power of the Kingdom of Virginia has been weakened. The pirates have lost 20,000 soldiers, and the remaining five Ten thousand horses and twenty thousand stayed behind Kurau and Zhivacheze. 30,000 are preparing to attack Kudan. Kudan’s defenders have fewer than 5,000 troops. It is estimated that it will not take long. Kudan will lose. I told Shao Yu about the kingdom of Gia

"What, the Swedish army was defeated?" Shao Yu listened to silence for a while, the Swedish army lost 20,000 soldiers and horses, and the other soldiers and horses of the Kingdom of Virginia were also attacked. As a result, the Kingdom of Virgia was lost. With the forces competing against the pirates, I am afraid that the demise of the Kingdom of Vaegya is only a matter of time! Shao Yu couldn't help thinking

The pirates still have at least 50,000 horses. Although the Kingdom of Virginia is guarded by the city and has a military strength of nearly 30,000 horses, the Kingdom of Virginia is very passive and loses a large number of territories. I believe it will not be a few days. , Kudan City will also be lost, then only Rivadin, the capital of the Kingdom of Vegia, can be defended. The pirates are still increasing their reinforcements. The pirates attacked the city of more than 20,000 defenders with 50,000 troops~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Even if the Vigias defended it, there would be many casualties.

"Your Majesty, what shall we do next?" the herder asked

In fact, the herdsman was also disguised by the intelligence personnel of the Shao Ming Kingdom.

"Send the order, let Kutha use my warrant to mobilize the Modao knight, let him lead the Modao knight to attack the pirates, come out at night, and interfere with the pirates attacking the city. We must delay the time. Once Kudan is lost, our The capital is in danger," Shao Yu said to the herdsman

"In addition, Fatis was appointed as the acting cavalry commander, and Lord Ubai allocated two thousand cavalry to Fatis to go to Kudan to create momentum and make a scene to support Kudan, to confuse the pirates and prevent them from attacking the city easily. "Shao Yu thought for a while and said.

Fatis once served as the commander of the cavalry in the kingdom of Swadia, and has rich experience. There shouldn't be any problem in leading the army to the array of suspicious soldiers.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the herder replied

Shao Yu immediately issued two warrants and handed them to the herdsmen. The herdsmen said goodbye to Shao Yu and returned to Aichamore to send the orders.
