Chapter 540: Bargaining Chips
The Mi family arranged a late-night raid, and suddenly entered Xiao Tianlong's station, and the warriors who fought fled in all directions.
The Mi family's ** was happy, and then they chased closely, although their offensive was fierce, no samurai were injured, and they were all hiding in the light warship. Seeing that the monks of the Mi family chased up, they accelerated their escape, and after leaving the city for two hundred miles, the light warship of the samurai suddenly killed a horse pistol, and the guns and cannons fired together, and in less than ten minutes, the chasing Mi family battleship was shot down to the ground, and then the samurai started hand-to-hand combat, the guns rang out, the magic weapon Huo Huo, the brilliance flashed, and there were screams and dying struggles everywhere, and the battle was extremely tragic.
Xiao Tianlong took the lead, holding his special painting halberd, he picked up a monk in the air at once, and shouted in the face of the surging monks, and pounced.
With Xiao Tianlong's brave battle, the warriors also stepped forward one by one to fight hard.
The Mi family sent more than 30 warships this time, and this kind of old-fashioned warship could not be compared with light warships in terms of speed and agility, and more than 30 warships were shot down to the ground. The monks inside were killed and wounded.
The speed of the artifact is similar to that of a bullet, but the weapon's weakness is that it cannot perform continuous attacks. The pistol is an automatic weapon, and with a hook of the finger, a dozen bullets are fired, and if these ten or so bullets hit a person's body, they will break a person's body.
There are fifty rounds of ammunition in a pistol, which can kill five or six monks, but due to the lack of pistols in Xiao Tianlong's troops, only one-third of the samurai have guns in their hands, and these samurai with guns have not been equipped with pistols for a long time.
After half an hour of fierce fighting, the battlefield fell silent, Xiao Tianlong was covered in blood, looked up and looked around, only his own people were left, the armor he was wearing was a uniform standard, he opened his mouth to issue an order, only to find that his voice was dumb. Hurriedly drank a sip of water, moistened his throat, and then felt better, and said loudly: "Brothers, hurry up and clean up the battlefield, save your own people, the grandsons of the Mi family have all been killed for me, and Lang will have to pay for food and medicine if you keep it." ”
With Xiao Tianlong's order, all the monks who surrendered and those who were injured were slaughtered. After this battle, Xiao Tianlong received the nickname "Butcher", which means executioner like a butcher.
After counting the battlefield, I found that the Mi family actually sent 130,000 people out to fight, none of them were alive, all of them were killed, and there were corpses everywhere, Xiao Tianlong thought it was too troublesome to bury them one by one, so he set a fire, and all of them were burned cleanly, it was very easy for the warriors to set fires, everyone was a monk, as long as the five flavors of true fire were released.
In this battle, Xiao Tianlong's warriors also suffered more than 7,000 casualties, which can be regarded as heavy losses. There are also a lot of loot, and these monks of the Mi family are also very wealthy, and some of them carry a lot of magic weapons, probably to change the armor they wear.
After Zhen Fei received the poisonous weed sent by Xiao Tianlong, he immediately carried out a decomposition test, and the experimental equipment used was all from the world, which was quite scientific, and soon developed the antidote, and then mass-produced it for everyone to take the antidote to the warriors.
The Mi family found that none of the monks who raided had returned, and they felt that something was wrong, and they no longer went to the city wall to show off, and all of them looked at Xiao Tianlong's soldiers and horses in the distance.
After having an antidote, Xiao Tianlong actively prepared for the war and swept away the previous decadent spirit.
He also learned from the Mi family's practice, and on a windy and dark night, he ordered all the samurai to enter the Mi family's city from one direction.
The battle was not as fierce as expected, since the last battle, the elite of the Mi family has been lost, and the rest are old and young women and children. This time, Xiao Tianlong did not show the barbaric style of "butcher", and ordered the samurai not to violate women and not to kill children.
This is also Xiao Tianlong's character, he is still a kind person after all, and his madness on the battlefield is a momentary impulse, killing his eyes.
After Zhen Fei learned all this, he praised Xiao Tianlong very much, he was originally very dissatisfied with Xiao Tianlong's slaughter of wounded soldiers and prisoners, and planned to use military law to punish Xiao Tianlong, but after hearing that Xiao Tianlong did not kill women and children, he was very excited, and wrote down a line of words at that time: "Fierce as a tiger, compassionate." ”
Then asked Qi Fang to tattoo these words into a pennant and give it to Xiao Tianlong.
After receiving Zhen Fei's pennant, Xiao Tianlong was very moved, he made this pennant into a flag, hung it on the outside of the light warship, every time he flew, this flag hunted and hunted, and was torn by the strong wind, and soon he had to change another flag, and the new flag was still these six big characters.
Due to Xiao Tianlong's magnanimity towards the Mi family, the Mi family's people quickly surrendered to the defenders of Qincheng. Zhen Fei ordered Xiao Tianlong to be stationed in the city of the Mi family, and gave this city a name, called the City of Red Flags, and after a long time, it was called the Red City.
Zhao Hongbo on the other front attacked the Feng family.
This is a city built on the top of a big mountain, in fact, on the Xiuzhen Continent, the monks can fly around, and the moat is actually not of much use.
The reason why the Feng family's city was built on the top of the steep cliff was for a purpose, because the Feng family raised a large number of small birds, which were all poisonous, different from the toxicity of other family plants. The Feng family used the poison of animals to defend their homeland for themselves.
If there is an enemy to attack, it will inevitably fly from the air, then the birds raised by the Feng family flew out, and for a while the air was filled with a pungent smell, and the people who smelled the poisonous gas suddenly felt sour and numb, and their hands and feet were weak, although the poison was not fatal, but it could make people lose their combat effectiveness, and the monks of the Feng family were eyeing the city wall.
Such terrain and the guard of poisonous birds made Zhao Hongbo a headache, he was a fierce general, but also a Confucian general, more resourceful, standing on the top of the mountain more than ten miles away from the Feng family, quietly observing the Feng family's city from the telescope.
After observing for a long time, Zhao Hongbo found that this bird often eats poisonous snakes in the mountains, and poisonous snakes are actually food for birds. As soon as Zhao Hongbo had an idea, he sprinkled another poison in the mountains, which was a poison configured by Zhen Fei, and it was violently toxic.
Because the poisonous snake in the mountain was contaminated with another new poison and was already dying, it was easy to be preyed on by the birds, the birds did not adapt to the new poison, and were poisoned to death, and the Feng family still had a lot of birds left, but it was not enough to form an effective protection.
Zhao Hongbo then ordered the troops to choose a windy weather, from the direction of the wind to attack the Feng family, after several hours of fierce fighting, finally broke through the city, occupied the Feng family, because Zhao Hongbo's weapons are sharp, or to win more with less, killing and wounding the Feng family 150,000 horses, their own losses are also huge, a total of more than 10,000 people killed and wounded.
The demise of these two families, the Mi family and the Feng family, made Qin Cheng famous for a while. The remaining eight families who attacked Qin City sent envoys to ask to see Zhen Fei.
In the General's Mansion in Qincheng, Zhen Fei sat in a chair, not angry but mighty, with his wife Lion King Zhao Yayun sitting in his left hand, and generals Xiao Tianlong and Zhao Hongbo sitting in his right hand. Ling Yun will always stand behind Zhen Fei.
The envoy came alone, with three locks of long beard and wearing a soapy blue robe, which was not a magic weapon, but a real cloth robe, indicating that he had no ill will towards Qin Cheng and did not carry any equipment and weapons.
The middle-aged envoy stared at Zhen Fei, gave a deep salute, and said, "In the next autumn wind, I have seen the general. ”
"I'm Zhen Fei, Senior Qiu, please sit down." Zhen Fei made a gesture of please and said.
"Thank you, General." Qiu Fengzi said neither humbly nor arrogantly, very calmly.
After Qiu Fengzi finished it, he took out a letter from the storage space, handed it to Zhen Fei with both hands, and said: "I am here to negotiate with the general on the orders of the heads of the Liu family, the Zheng family, the Qiao family, the Yu family, the Yang family, the Long family, the Bu family, and the Gan family. ”
Zhao Yayun took the letter, handed it to Zhen Fei, opened the letter, Zhen Fei looked at it, this is a sincere letter of apology, which mentioned that the last time he should not attack Qincheng, he promised that he would not take any military action against Qincheng in the future.
After reading the letter, Zhen Fei was silent. Qiu Fengzi was uneasy in his heart, and hurriedly said: "What else does the general have to order, I will go back and convey your words to the heads of the eight families as they are, if the general is not at ease, I will write a letter and bring it back." ”
Zhen Fei slowly put down the letter and said, "In addition to this letter, do the eight family heads have any bargaining chips?" ”
As a post-war negotiation, Zhen Fei was the victorious side, high up and looking down on everything. A total of ten families came to attack Qincheng, but the whole army was wiped out, and the Mi family and the Feng family have perished, this is the deterrent effect, the heads of the eight families are afraid, worried about following the old path of the Mi family and the Feng family, so they seek peace. If Zhen Fei is asked to stop the war with just a letter, Zhen Fei is too bad, it will give people the impression that he is easy to bully, and all the warriors under Zhen Fei's command will also be demoralized, and only by following the leader of a hegemon will there be a way out in the future.
Qiu Fengzi pondered for a moment and said, "Not for the time being, but the eight family heads want to hear the general's advice." ”
Zhen Fei said angrily: "I established Qincheng here, I didn't take the initiative to provoke others, and there was not a single violent incident in Qincheng, whether it was the elves or the human race, they all coexisted peacefully here, we never fought against others, robbed others, but, the people of your family want to destroy us, that Subei's conduct is particularly bad, and he even wants to confiscate all my property, and then use it as the spoils of the ten families, the Su family has the largest number of people who attack Qincheng, accounting for the majority of the spoils after the robbery, If it weren't for the courage of the defenders of Qincheng and their refusal to give in, the people who are here today would be the people of their ten families, and I would still be wandering elsewhere, or even killed. ”
Zhen Fei continued: "Things in the world can't be lifted by a single word, since your family is not reasonable, not moral, then we can sweep away all the people in the family, we have this strength, I hope Senior Qiu will tell my words to the eight family masters." ”
