After traveling through time, I became Han Zhang’s grandson?

On the eighth day of the tenth month of the second year of Zhiping, the Song Dynasty delegation, led by He Zhengru, the deputy envoy of the Three Departments, entered Xincheng for rest and recuperation.

After the accompanying personnel deliberately spread the news, all the "Long Xijin" personnel in Nanxijin Prefecture gathered at Qigou Pass.

Under Xiao Chu's secret surveillance, the delegation spent a peaceful night.

On the ninth day of October, the moment He Zhengru and his companions packed their bags and stepped out of the new city, a fierce murderous intent ignited at the Qigou Pass far to the north.

"Lord, we have detected their movements and are setting up an ambush near the narrow passage inside Qigou Pass!"

Cheng Lan flashed over from a distance and landed beside Han Ming, who was sitting cross-legged on a boulder, wiping his sword.

"What's the whereabouts of the delegation?"

Han Ming did not look up, but continued to slowly stroke the standard weapon of the Liao army.

"My Lord, Lord He and his entourage have left the new city and are heading here."

Hearing Cheng Lan's words, Han Ming jumped up and flew down from the rock.

"Then let's not delay. Lord He and the other ministers are all scholars and are not used to such bloody scenes."

"Let's fight quickly and decisively to completely destroy the Liao people's hopes—!"

Han Ming sheathed his sword and took Yong Zeng and Cheng Lan straight to the narrow passage inside Qigou Pass.

At this moment, Xiao Chu and his men were making the final mobilization, but they didn't know that a group of men in black had slowly sneaked into their camp.

"Everyone, the Song Dynasty delegation is heading north this time with the intention of interfering in the internal affairs and military affairs of the Liao Dynasty."

"The Song people even sent their military genius and god of war, Han Ming, Marquis of Anyang. This shows their malicious intentions!"

"I'm sure you're all familiar with Han Ming. Although he's a renowned hero in Song, he's a vicious and ruthless villain to us."

"Not only did he arbitrarily start a war and besiege the Xixia capital, but according to relevant intelligence, he also habitually sacrifices the heads and blood of his enemies."

"What makes this person most sinister is his disregard for propriety and morality, and his unauthorized massacre."

"In his eyes, all the helpless civilians and soldiers who surrendered were just poultry, to be slaughtered at will."

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the Xixia soldiers who died or were wounded in the Battle of Haoshuichuan. They hated Han Ming so much that they wanted to eat his flesh and drink his blood."

"Now, under Han Ming's promotion, the Song State has launched an unprecedented reform. It is reported that their next military target will be our Great Liao!"

"Therefore, in order to protect your relatives and families, as well as the people of the Liao Dynasty, from being slaughtered."

"This assassination mission requires an all-out effort. This battle will determine the outcome—!"

There was a hint of coldness on Xiao Chu's fair face, but his words inspired the assassins in the camp.

"Kill Han Ming and protect the Liao Dynasty!"

"Kill Han Ming and protect the Liao Dynasty!"

"Kill Han Ming and protect the Liao Dynasty!"

"..."

I don't know who started it, but the whole camp was suddenly filled with the noise of gongs and drums. Everyone clenched their fists and gritted their teeth, as if Han Ming was standing right in front of them.

The Song Dynasty's "assassins" who heard the other party's words in the dark couldn't help but look slightly moved, and looked at Han Ming, who was in the lead, cautiously.

As for Han Ming, the corners of his mouth twitched as he kept looking at this group of assassins who looked like a pyramid scheme organization.

Damn it——!

My good reputation has been ruined by a bunch of bastards like you!

"Everyone, the leader has already said that whoever takes Han Ming's head will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins and be granted the title of Marquis!"

Xiao Chu dropped another bombshell, causing everyone in the open and in the dark to drop their jaws in shock.

"Take his head and make him a marquis or a general!"

"Take his head and make him a marquis or a general!"

"Take his head and make him a marquis or a general!"

"..."

I don’t know who was so smart that he raised his fist and became very passionate, leading the whole crowd to raise their fists and cheer together.

"Everyone, for your families and the Liao Dynasty, we will fight to the death!"

Xiao Chu made a final summary, which cheered everyone up and they didn't even notice a figure appearing in the crowd.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it seems that Mr. Han is really worth a lot of money."

"A reward of a thousand gold coins, and a title of marquis?"

"I really don't know if you have the ability to take my head."

The sound of chuckles suddenly rang out all around, pouring a bucket of cold water on the excited assassins from head to toe.

They suddenly turned around and saw a young man in black clothes standing nearby, looking at them with a smile.

“Han Ming——!”

Xiao Chu's pupils shrank, and he immediately realized that something had gone wrong in the mission and the news had leaked.

"Do it—!"

It must be said that Xiao Chu was also a character. He was the first to react to the current situation and immediately ordered Han Ming to be strangled.

"Come and give it a try?"

A creepy smile gradually appeared on Han Ming's lips.

"Om-!"

"Om-!"

"Om-!"

"..."

The sound of swords being drawn resounded everywhere, and the next second, dozens of assassins in the camp flew out together and stabbed Han Ming directly.

"bass--!"

Facing dozens of swords, Han Ming was not at all panicked. He suddenly drew out his weapon and swung it out, using the scabbard as a shield to defend against the enemy on the other side.

“Ding-ding—dang-dang—!”

Han Ming was like entering an empty space. He killed his way through the encirclement of dozens of people and came close to Xiao Chu.

"My Lord, we are here to help you—!"

Yong Zeng and Cheng Lan rushed out from the darkness with their men and pounced on the Liao assassins. A melee broke out between the two sides in the narrow camp.

"Are you the legendary 'Sumita'?"

There was not a trace of blood on Han Ming's body or face. If it weren't for the bright red blood still flowing on his long sword, no one would have thought that it was him who had just broken through the encirclement.

"An-Yang-Hou-Han-Ming-!"

Xiao Chu gritted his teeth and stared at the other person word by word.

"Don't be so polite with me. Your speech just now was very interesting. It reminded me of the days when I was galloping on the battlefield of Western Xia."

"Just for this, I will make your death more painful later."

Han Ming chuckled, raised his sword and swung it out, not giving Xiao Chu a chance to speak.

"Om-!"

Xiao Chu drew his sword to meet the attack, and the two began their first round of fighting under such circumstances.

"Ding--!"

Facing Han Ming's slashing blow, Xiao Chu used the "Immortal Pointing the Way" technique, hitting the middle of the opponent's long sword directly, forcing the opponent to change direction.

"Hmph! Such a trifle!"

Han Ming took advantage of the situation and used a "spinning knife" to directly deflect the opponent's force that came through the weapon, then he gathered momentum with the "head-wrapping knife" and suddenly cut out from the other side.

"boom--!"

Han Ming's swordsmanship was so fast that it was impossible to avoid it. Xiao Chu could only push off the ground to bounce back and use his scabbard to resist Han Ming's terrifying sword power.

However, as soon as the head-on collision occurred, Xiao Chu felt a terrifying force transmitted from the scabbard to his palm.

The next second, the scabbard in Han Ming's hand was directly shattered by a blow, and the tiger's mouth burst instantly, with blood flowing.

"you--!"

Xiao Chu never expected that Han Ming, who was born as a civil official, would have such superb skills in his hands and feet, and could be called a master in the martial arts world.

"Whoosh-!"

Just when Xiao Chu was a little dazed, Han Ming did not stop, swung the long sword in his hand and headed straight for the opponent's door.

"open--!"

Xiao Chu exerted all his strength, knocking Han Ming's sword away, and then, in the astonished eyes of everyone, he flashed and flew out of the camp, fleeing straight to the north of Qigou Pass.

"Xiao Cheng, I leave this to you. Yong Zeng, follow me and chase after—!"

Han Ming sneered, kicked the long sword on the ground with his foot, jumped up, and chased after him.

"My Lord! Be careful, there's an ambush!"

Seeing Han Ming being so reckless and aggressive, Cheng Lan couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. He quickly called on everyone to deal with the assassin, and then followed closely to hunt down Xiao Chu.

The few people did not ride horses, but were moving quickly along the ancient grain-transporting river west of Qigou Pass.

"My Lord, chasing like this is a problem. What if this guy has a backup plan and ambushed the enemy soldiers ahead?"

Yong Zeng was still cautious and couldn't help but remind him.

"Backhand? Ever since I left seclusion, he didn't notice our movements, proving he has no backup plan at all."

"He assumed that I, the Marquis, was as powerless as the other civil officials. This is because his information is wrong."

"As an intelligence chief, how can you do a good job of espionage if you don't even understand the basic facts?"

Han Ming sneered, exerted strength in his left hand, and threw the scabbard out with a javelin-like move.

"Whoosh-!"

"boom--!"

"puff--!"

Three sounds were heard in succession. The first was the sound of the scabbard accelerating; the second was the sound of the impact on the body; and the third was the sound of vomiting blood.

After the three sounds, Xiao Chu paused, stumbled, and fell to the ground, his whole body shaking in pain.

"You—poof—!"

Seeing Han Ming approaching leisurely, Xiao Chu was so angry that he spat out blood.

"Don't get angry. It's your own health that will be harmed if you get angry."

Han Ming chuckled and put the long knife against the opponent's neck.

"Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh!"

Xiao Chu let out a hoarse breath from his throat, his eyes fixed on the arrogant Han Ming.

"To be honest, I really want to hand you over to the Edge Pacification Division. After all, you have a lot of secrets."

"But I guess you're someone with a strong will who would never submit, so I'll follow our previous agreement and give you a quick death!"

Han Ming didn't wait for Xiao Chu to utter a harsh word, he just swung his sword and a big head flew into the sky.

Yong Zeng, Cheng Lan and others who followed behind him were all shocked. Some did not dare to step forward and just looked at Han Ming's cold and lonely back.

"Clean up the battlefield and dump the assassins' bodies at the intersection of Qigou Pass. When Lord He sees them, he will know what to do."

"I will not trouble you, my colleagues from the Border Pacification Department, for the rest of the journey. I will move secretly to Xijin Prefecture to reunite with the delegation."

"Thank you all for your hard work on this mission..."

Han Ming whispered something to Cheng Lan and took Yong Zeng north.

Cheng Lan and others behind him hurriedly bowed and bid farewell to Han Ming who was in a hurry.

At the northern exit of Qigou Pass, a dark figure stood there. Seeing Han Ming and the other two coming out together, he handed the two horses beside him to them, then bowed and disappeared...
