In the early morning, the land of spring is barren.

The plan of the year lies in the spring.

If it weren't for the war, the world would be full of busy farmers with hope and sustenance.

But now, the wilderness between heaven and earth is as bleak as a dilapidated autumn day.

Wild grass, ditches, mud.

As far as the eye can see, there is not a trace of life.

Zhu Wu crossed the river and broke through three cities in a row, and Zhu Chongba swept the small cities and fortresses between Gaoyou and Huai'an.

The flames of war reached the people, and countless people began to flee with their families and mouths.

Huaidong, which was originally rich and warm, has now seen a lot of people.

Seeing this, Zhu Wu's heart was mixed, a little ashamed, and a little blameful.

He is the one who started it all.

However, such emotions only flashed in my heart.

In this era, neither heroes nor heroes can have too much mercy.

If you want to live, you can only kill.

War, in fact, there is no justice.

Only, victory.

"Fifth brother, the front is the Huai'an boundary!"

Lan Yu pointed ahead and said beside Zhu Wu.

At this moment, Zhu Wu was stationed on the edge of a small river, allowing the war horse to bow his head and drink the clear river water.

There were about 500 guards around him, armed to the teeth, and looked around vigilantly.

Today, he was a scout. These days, the cavalry of Dingyuan wandered between Huai'an and Gaoyou all day long, and even went further.

However, the news found was that the gate of Huai'an City was closed and strictly guarded, and there was no movement of officials and soldiers around.

So, he decided to come out and have a look for himself.

Listening to Lan Yu's words, Zhu Wu pulled down the reins, and the war horse snorted twice and left the river.

"Keep going!"

"Fifth brother, is the boundary of Huai'an in front?" Lan Yu persuaded, "You~~"

"How can you be the same as Li Shanchang and their civil officials, mother-in-law and mother-in-law!"

Zhu Wu said with a smile, "Lao Tzu also crawled out of the pile of dead people, he is afraid of a bird, and he will be slaughtered by the official army." Besides, the officers and soldiers are hiding in the city and don't dare to show their heads, what can they do? ”

After speaking, "Drive!" ”

He shouted softly, and the war horse under his crotch rushed out like an arrow.

Lan Yu was helpless, and glanced at a personal soldier beside him, and followed with his horse.

The cavalry of more than 500 people, black and oppressive, and dark clouds covered the sky and moved forward on the earth.

The sound of horses' hooves resounded in the sky.

These five hundred people are the most elite cavalry of the Dingyuan Army, and they are all armor carefully built by craftsmen, not to mention one as ten.

At least, the officers and soldiers did not have two or three thousand cavalry, so they could not be retained. Moreover, the rangers of Dingyuan have been hanging on the edge of Huai'an, and as long as there is a war, they will be able to support immediately.

This is Zhu Wu's reliance.

"Drive!"

Zhu Wu was on the horse, looking around.

The farmland around Huai'an is also a lot barren, and it has not rained this year, and the weeds in the fields are listless and yellow.

"Phew!"

Suddenly, Zhu Wu pulled the reins.

In the grass on the side, there seems to be something.

"What's over there?"

Zhu Wu pointed with a horsewhip, and Hua Yun, who was following behind him, took a few personal soldiers and dismounted and drew a knife and rushed over.

"Dashuai, it's the corpse of the people!"

Hua Yun took a look at it and replied.

Zhu Wu also dismounted and walked over.

Among the weeds, an emaciated man lay on his back to the sky, with a shocking wound on his back, and some mosquitoes and flies lingered over the dark wound.

"Knife wounds?"

Zhu Wu looked at the long and narrow wound on the corpse, which was obviously a saber chopping knife wound, and the bones on his back were exposed.

Subsequently, the body was stabbed with a scabbard, and it was not very hard.

"At most, I died last night!"

The dead man has seen it, and he has experience, and the time of this man's death is very near.

"Dashuai, there are horseshoe prints here!"

Hua Yun found something on the side, and said loudly, "It's not one, at least a cavalry team, more than thirty people!" ”

Zhu Wu also saw it, and the horseshoe prints on the ground were neatly facing one direction.

"Get on the horse and go ahead!"

"I'll go first!"

Lan Yu rushed ahead of Zhu Wu and galloped away with a few cavalry.

"Check the firearms, bows and arrows!"

After getting on the horse, Hua Yun commanded loudly.

The cavalry of several hundred men immediately advanced in battle formation, their spears on their horses flat and their sabers unsheathed.

Light-armored knights who were good at riding and archery, distributed on the two flanks of the cavalry.

Two hundred firearm cavalry guarded Zhu Wu's side.

After walking a few more miles, Lan Yu's own soldiers hurried over.

"Dashuai, there is a small Zhuangzi in front, Lan Qianhu grabbed a tongue on the side of the road!"

"Drive!"

Zhu Wu nodded and continued to ride forward.

After a few steps, I saw Lan Yu squatting on the ground with someone dismounting, and an old man in ragged clothes was kneeling with his hands folded, saying something.

"What's going on?"

"Fifth brother!" Seeing Zhu Wu, Lan Yu trotted over, "This old man is in Zhuangzi, last night dozens of cavalry rushed into Zhuangzi to scourge and kill people and set fires, and now they are still in Zhuangzi and have not left!" ”

Zhu Wu was a little puzzled, how bold did the officers and soldiers of Huai'an go out of the city?

Squinting his eyes, he asked, "Officer?" ”

"Eighty percent is, but the old man said that those cavalrymen don't speak our Chinese, and they look different from us."

"Who does he care?"

Zhu Wu's heart was on fire, and he sneered, "Dozens of cavalry, slaughter me!" ”

"Whoa!"

Lan Yu didn't say much, and with a wave of his hand, the cavalry mounted one after another.

Zhuangzi was in front of him, and it was supposed to be the time when the smoke was up and he was ready to get busy, but there was silence.

Zhu Wu led the cavalry to stop at the high place on the edge of Zhuangzi, and Lan Yu led people to slowly touch the edge of Zhuangzi.

These horses are highly trained and do not neigh at all, except for the sound of hooves.

"Ahh

Between heaven and earth, a sudden scream broke the silence.

Heartbreaking, desperate and heart-wrenching.

Then, in Zhu Wu's sight, a young woman ran out of a house with her naked body.

She seemed to have no direction, just screaming and wailing helplessly like a madman.

“&%?? #～～～！ ”

Then there was a burst of bird-like laughter, and a shirtless, curly-haired, high-nosed bearded man laughed and rushed out of the house with a bow and arrow.

Everything is in Zhu Wu's eyes.

The naked young woman ran crying, and the curly-haired bearded man behind her drew his bow and arrows.

Zhu Wu's heart slammed up, "Don't~~"

Sou!

The running woman stopped suddenly, and an arrow pierced her white chest, and the blood immediately spread silently, staining half of her body red.

"Uh~~"

A hoarse scream came out of her mouth, and she pounced, kneeling on the ground, her head facing Zhu Wu's direction.

She seemed to see Zhu Wu.

She saw it.

Zhu Wu clearly saw that the woman was trying to raise her head, and her mouth wanted to make a sound in his direction.

She even wanted to wave, but it was all in vain.

She was so young, the same age as a flower, and her white body exuded a soft luster under her eyes.

However, the shocking blood kept wrapping her. In the end, she could only look at Zhu Wu and fell weakly.

"Sappy!"

Zhu Wuda shouted.
