"Brothers, after this meal, we will start the operation!"
"Remember, even if we fail, we must insist that it was Young Master Cao Pi who sent us!"
At this time, in front of a small tent about three hundred paces away from the tent where Jiang Wei and Li Cunxiao were resting.
A leader wearing a black mask said in a low voice.
Then, the leader took off his black mask, raised the cup of wine in his hand, and drank it all.
Hundreds of men of sacrifice around him raised their bowls of wine and imitated the leader to drink it all. They threw their bowls on the ground to show their determination.
They knew very well that they would either succeed or die trying in this battle!
They only had one goal — to take off Jiang Wei's head!
As long as they could accomplish this goal, they would not hesitate even if all these men of sacrifice died in battle!
These men of sacrifice had been raised by the Yang family for many years in order to serve the Yang family one day.
However, over the years, the Yang family had become more and more powerful and had become one of the top noble families.
These men of sacrifice had become the secret guards of the Yang family, guarding the safety of the Yang family.
However, this did not mean that these men of sacrifice had lost their killing skills. Once they were asked to fight, they would still be extremely terrifying.
This time, in order to help Cao Zhi, Yang Xiu brought these men of sacrifice out of the Yang family at all costs.
He also told them to forget that they were the men of sacrifice of the Yang family.
From this moment on, they were the men of sacrifice secretly raised by Cao Cao.
In order to double the insurance, Yang Xiu even changed a new batch of Yang Family's death warriors these few days.
Soon, the hundred or so men of sacrifice finished their last meal. Taking advantage of the night, they began to grope their way toward Jiang Wei's tent.
At this time, they did not expect that a small group of people was following them closely and watching their actions.
"Did you see which tent Jiang Wei is in?"
The leader asked softly.
The men of sacrifice beside him nodded heavily.
"Yes, he is in the second tent on the left."
"But the more troublesome thing is that General Li Cunxiao is next to his tent."
"If we alarm him, I'm afraid …"
At this point, the Death Warrior shut his mouth and did not continue speaking.
If they disturbed Li Cunxiao, they knew very well what the consequences would be.
They had investigated how terrifying Li Cunxiao's strength was.
If they were to fight head-on, these hundred men of sacrifice wouldn't even be enough to defeat Li Cunxiao.
"Damn it, I didn't expect these guys to be so vigilant."
"However, this is Young Master's order after all. No matter what, we can only succeed this time. Failure is not allowed!"
The leader gritted his teeth and gave the order to continue forward.
Fight!
Even if he alarmed Li Cunxiao, he had to assassinate Jiang Wei here. He absolutely could not let him leave this place alive!
Once Jiang Wei took the credit for the annihilation of the Di people, Jiang Wei's reputation would slowly grow.
At the very least, he would have the right to speak in the imperial court.
This was undoubtedly bad news for Yang Xiu and Cao Zhi.
This time, the weapons and arrows in the hands of these men of sacrifice were smeared with lethal poison. Even their hands were smeared with lethal poison.
If the assassination failed, as long as they caught Jiang Wei and smeared the poison on his skin, it wouldn't take long for Jiang Wei to die.
However, their hands had been specially treated to prevent the poison from coming into contact with their skin.
Otherwise, these men of sacrifice would die before they could even achieve victory.
Soon, the men of sacrifice found their way to Jiang Wei's tent.
Strangely enough, there weren't many patrolling soldiers.
Perhaps it was because there were only twenty of them, and there were only three patrolling soldiers at night.
It wasn't easy to detect them in the vicinity of such a large tent.
Furthermore, there was no moonlight tonight. The entire tent was pitch black, and only the campfire was lit.
Soon, the men of sacrifice tiptoed around Li Cunxiao's tent.
Fortunately, there was no movement from Li Cunxiao's tent.
It seemed like he hadn't noticed them yet.
"This is our chance!"
The leader ordered in a low voice. All the men of sacrifice surrounded Jiang Wei's tent and forced their way in.
The tent was made of sackcloth, and the sharp daggers in their hands could easily cut it open.
Out of the hundreds of men of sacrifice, eighty of them stood guard outside, while the leader led twenty men of sacrifice into Jiang Wei's tent!
However, when they entered the tent, the leader was stunned.
Jiang Wei's tent was brightly lit with candles.
However, there was no one there!
This meant that the men of sacrifice had rushed into empty space!
"Damn it, I clearly saw him enter the tent!"
The leader was furious. He quickly looked around but couldn't find any trace of anyone.
Jiang Wei seemed to have evaporated into thin air.
"Oh no!"
The leader suddenly had a strange feeling. This feeling told him that something big was about to happen!
As expected, the sound of arrows whistling through the air could be heard from outside!
"Oh no! The enemy has discovered us! "
A cry of surprise came from outside the tent, followed by the sound of arrows whistling through the air.
That man groaned and fell to the ground.
"Why? We didn't expose ourselves. How did they discover us? "
The leader shouted. He couldn't care less now. He had to break out of the encirclement!
The Eighteen Horsemen of Yanyun only had eighteen men.
It should be easy for the men of sacrifice to escape from them, who had been scouting the area for a long time.
However, when the leader walked out of the tent to break out of the encirclement, he realized that he was surrounded by soldiers!
At a rough estimate, there were at least a thousand soldiers!
"Damn it, it seems like they were prepared!"
The leader shouted and was about to give the order to break out of the encirclement.
At this moment, a beautiful figure appeared in front of the leader.
"Put down your weapons and surrender, and I'll spare your lives."
The person who spoke was none other than Qin Liangyu, who had been waiting for a long time!
Behind Qin Liangyu were Li Cunxiao and Jiang Wei. They narrowed their eyes and looked at the group of men of sacrifice.
Qin Liangyu had sent a messenger to Jiang Wei and Li Cunxiao two hours ago to inform them of the potential danger.
Therefore, Jiang Wei decided to use himself as bait to lure them out.
After Jiang Wei entered the tent, he sneaked out of the tent through a secret tunnel and observed the situation.
Originally, Qin Liangyu didn't want to bring anyone with him. However, there were more men of sacrifice than he had expected.
It would be difficult for the Eighteen Horsemen of Yanyun to rescue Jiang Wei from the hundreds of assassins.
After all, the mobility of a cavalry was limited. They couldn't stop the sharp assassins.
