Chapter 442: Time with a pipe

Earl Artowa was full of depression, and according to popular sayings, black lines were covered with his forehead. What is the problem so serious? He was appointed by his brother, but he did not go to do his job first. Instead, he returned to his residence.

The first thing he did was to find his own confidants.

"We can't leave these bastards behind, so..."

After arranging the matter, Count Artuva sat there smoking a pot of cigarettes. You can't say that when Martin "invented" tobacco, this thing became very popular. However, Count Artuva did not seek the refreshing effect of tobacco, but used it to count time.

Zhao Fubo lived not far away. In order to show respect for him, it was a three-story house. Not only did Zhao Fubo live, but his subordinates also lived, and there were even horse houses nearby. This was respect for foreign "nobles" like Zhao Fubo. At least during their stay, the safety of the hospital they were in was guaranteed.

After a while from the dinner, Zhao Fubo told Amin and Basel to be careful. After returning to the upper floor, he called Sophia and Alisa.

"You two must keep your armor and weapons by your side!"

"What, are you worried?"

Alisa didn't know anything about the army. She didn't understand at all that an army like the Song Dynasty Yulin Army was an army that was always ready to fight.

"No, he has no meaning. We are not in our camp, so we must be ready to fight at any time. This... is the military rule!"

Alisa looked at Zhao Fubo, who made a gesture to Sophia, indicating that it was as she said.

"That's Kiriel's equipment?"

Zhao Fubo understood that Sophia was worried about how to deal with Qili's equipment if she encountered an attack, especially when she was not there.

"Stay all of them and find someone to send them to her tomorrow. I don't think she likes her preparations not being around."

After everything was arranged, Zhao Fubo returned to his bedroom. Finally, he looked at the patrolling and fully armed subordinates outside, and then he felt relieved to lie on his bed.

But he had just lie down and had not had time to fall asleep. Suddenly he heard the sentry on the flat-topped room shouting.

"Who, what are you doing!"

Immediately afterwards, the bright car lights illuminated the courtyard outside. Zhao Fubo came to the window in surprise and saw the Earl of Artowa. He was standing blankly on the street outside with two servants. It was obvious that the lights on the roof scared them.

“Switch off the lights!”

Zhao Fubo was on the third floor and ordered his subordinates, and then he came down from the upper floor by himself. At this time, he was only wearing a shirt-like clothes, of course, his body was black, and he was absolutely not allowed to leave.

"Hello Mr. Earl, is there anything you need to ask me for so late?"

Zhao Fubo guessed whether Louis IX had made any decision or something more difficult to talk about in front of Qili's idea that he sent his brother over.

But Count Artuva did not speak, but bent down and quickly pulled out a dagger from his waist. While Zhao Fubo was not paying attention, he stabbed him in the abdomen.

Zhao Fubo originally thought he was going to salute, but was about to stop him. Suddenly, he felt something hit his waist. Although he was wearing fiberglass armor, the sharp Damascus steel blade still penetrated his vest-style armor.

"ah……"

Zhao Fubo screamed in surprise, and the pain made him wake up. The bastard in front of him was not here to talk about anything, but to kill his own life. Fortunately, the fiberglass armor prevented the dagger from further deepening. Although Zhao Fubo was not injured, he did not hurt his internal organs and could not kill him at all.

Zhao Fubo covered his wound and quickly retreated. At this time, the Earl Atuva in front of him drew out his long sword.

"Enemy attack...Enemy attack..."

With Zhao Fubo's voice, someone sounded the alarm. The bright lights lit up almost instantly, but there was already chaos outside.

It turned out that Earl Atuva, who had finished smoking his pipe, took his hands down near the courtyard where Zhao Fubo lived. He asked them to ambush, and he sent a confidant in his clothes to perform the assassination mission. Regardless of whether the assassination was successful or not, he immediately launched an attack and according to his order, there was no living in the entire mansion.

Just as the lights illuminated the three people downstairs, the sentry arranged by Zhao Fubo on the roof had already begun to shoot arrows outwards.

"ah……"

Three arrows in a row, and three people in the bright light fell down. But at this time, more soldiers were coming from the darkness. They ran quickly without saying a word, and some even carried wooden stakes used to hit the door.

As soon as Zhao Fubo retreated into the courtyard of the mansion, someone had already closed the door and pushed it up. As the alarm sounded, a series of screams came from the room where soldiers were resting.

"Get on equipment, hurry up, put on equipment!"

Zhao Fubo, who was covering his wound, staggered and rushed to the brightly lit room. As soon as he got together, he was so bloodless that he was almost unable to hold on.

"Ah, what's wrong with you, Master... Master..."

Alyssa, who ran down from the upstairs in a panic, saw Zhao Fubo and rushed over to help him. While holding him in a chair, she shouted at the upstairs with a voice.

"Sophia...Sophia...Master is injured!"

At this time, Sophia, who had just penetrated her armor to her body amid the alarm, was shocked and hurriedly took it off her body. Under the faint candlelight in the room, she found a lifesaver bag and ran out of her room.

At this time, there was already a chaotic group outside. The number of sentries on the roof was rare after all, and they were already attacked by bows and arrows downstairs. A large group of crusad soldiers rushed towards the door, waving their swords in their hands.

Although the number of Crusaders was large, they were not seen in the eyes of Zhao Fubo's guards. As elite soldiers in the army, they didn't care about the attacks of these ordinary soldiers at all.

After hiding at the sentry built with wooden boxes downstairs, he quickly took out the flint and a thin saw blade. After only a few strokes, a small fire was generated. The "thunderous thunder" water was twisted, and the fire was flicked, and the fuse made a tiny sound.

Then he didn't even stand up and threw coal into the street outside the door. These things did not require any accurate throws, as their instructor said.

"What have you seen by those rusty buns? Not to mention using fried ones, they will be scared to death!"

One after another, the "shocking thunder" were thrown directly from the third floor to the crowd on the street, and immediately made a loud explosion.
