Volume 1 ● The Recalcitrant People Chapter 37 A Transaction
Seeing that the general's sword suddenly stabbed, Guo Yang dodged and avoided it.
He rolled several lazy donkeys in a row, jumped between the dense hooves of horses, and killed seven or eight more Zhou people.
Guo Yang originally wanted to kill the general with one blow, but unfortunately although the man seemed to be extremely fierce, he was very cunning at the same time to protect his whole body, and it was really difficult to start for a while.
Guo Yang saw that he couldn't kill him in one fell swoop, so he simply unfolded his body and scurried around in the chaotic army, not giving them a chance to re-line. Anyway, in his opinion, these people deserve to die, and it is the same if he slaughters any of them.
However, his main target is still the general, so it looks like he's jumping around in the crowd, but in fact, he's been waiting for the right moment to get killed.
The Zhou people are all on the horse, if it is a head-on impact, they have an advantage, and it is definitely not something that one person can resist. But at this moment, let Guo Yang mix in among them, slash in the east and cut in the west, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, but killed those Zhou people and turned them on their backs.
After fighting so hard for more than half an hour, Guo Yang had already slaughtered more than 100 Zhou people, and those people's spears were really not suitable for close combat, but they got in the way and injured their own people by mistake from time to time.
The general had been following Guo Yang twenty or thirty paces behind, and more than a dozen guards around him gave up their lives to protect him, not giving Guo Yang the slightest chance.
Just when Guo Yang was a little anxious and was about to take a risk, the periphery of the Zhou cavalry suddenly became chaotic.
Guo Yang didn't see it in the crowd, but the general sat on his horse, but he could see it clearly.
It turned out that a group of people suddenly appeared on the periphery, dressed in animal skins, with a bare arm, and their faces were smeared with dirty blood and mud.
There were thirty-one people in this group, and the one who was headed by him was dark-faced and stout, and every time he went out, a Zhou pawn would be chopped to death.
The other thirty people, but all of them were teenagers, all of them had fierce faces, and they were like a group of hyenas. This group of young people is bent on the waist, a bright knife is ghostly, the tricks are ruthless, every time the knife goes down, those Zhou pawns either break their legs or arms, and they lose their ability to fight in an instant, but they will not die for a while, but they just roll on the ground in pain, crying and calling for their mother.
This group of people was none other than Anu and the thirty teenagers he had personally trained.
Compared with Guo Yang's death, Anu and these thirty teenagers brought Zhou people not only fear, but a kind of torture.
They rushed all the way around the periphery of the Zhou people's pawns, neither going deep nor far away, like hyenas, stalking these people to the death, cruelly and slowly killing them.
The Zhou people were in chaos.
For a moment, the wails, the screams before death, and the bluffing shouts of those soldiers resounded in the sky.
The scene got out of control, and the general was furious, wanting to go and kill those guys who came out of nowhere, but he was entangled by Guo Yangruo and couldn't get out.
He roared angrily and urged his horse to ram towards Guo Yang.
He had to kill the merchant as soon as possible, or his team of men and horses would be slowly slaughtered by the beast-like men.
Seeing that the general finally rushed up regardless of it, Guo Yang was overjoyed, pretended to be afraid, and flashed to the side.
The general looked carefully, shouted violently, and stabbed Guo Yang's throat again with the sword in his hand.
Guo Yang squatted down, dodging the fatal blows of several spears, and rolled over, using a set of combined kung fu that Anu had taught those teenagers.
He rolled swiftly through the jumble of horses' hooves, and slashed at the hooves.
Where Guo Yang rolled over, people turned on their backs, and there was chaos, but it blocked the general's way.
The general reined in his horse's head, and was about to turn around to fight again, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow under his horse's belly. His eyelids pounded, and his heart sank.
"Chop!" The general roared, leaped from his horse, and pounced forward, as if trying to avoid something.
More than a dozen guards were slaughtered by Guo Yang until there were only five or six left, and they rushed up one after another, waving the blades in their hands wildly, and finally forced Guo Yang back.
Guo Yang sneered, turned around and threw himself towards the ox cart.
"General! Checkmate! Waiting for Guo Yang to leave, the guards quickly turned around and tried to pick up their general.
Unexpectedly, the general would have died a long time ago. There was only a thin wound on his throat, and almost no blood was coming out.
The general's eyes were wide open, his eyeballs were a little bulging, with a hint of fear and remorse, and the hearts of the guards were shocked.
Several of them are finished. According to the laws of the Great Zhou, as a guard, the general was killed, and all the guards were executed.
The guards were dumbfounded, and they didn't know what to do for a while. Just as they hurriedly got on their horses and were about to fight Guo Yang desperately, the thirty teenagers led by Anu rushed to the ground, and before they could lift the spears in their hands, they were slashed to the ground by the chaotic blades and wailed loudly.
Anu's team was too bloody and violent, not only killing and injuring a large number of Zhou people, but also giving them a huge psychological shock. Seeing that the general was killed, they had long lost their fighting spirit, and they turned their horses' heads one after another, preparing to flee.
Suddenly, the sound of killing shook the sky, and hundreds of people suddenly appeared around them, but it was the old and disabled women and children of the Grand Canyon who poured out, regardless of men, women, and children, all armed with weapons to surround these Zhou people.
This group of people, led by Wang Huzi, led the more than 100 bandits and heroes to fight and rush, and in the blink of an eye, the array of the Zhou people was once again disrupted.
Subsequently, those old crippled women and children armed with sticks, ropes, axes and even hoes, beat up those former majestic Zhou people. Their weapons are rudimentary, but their moves are fierce and tricky, often giving those Zhou pawns a fatal blow in unexpected directions.
As soon as the battle begins, it means life and death.
The descendants of the merchants don't want to take prisoners, they just want to kill these damned Zhou people.
And those Zhou people, seeing that they were surrounded by groups, also knew that there was no hope of escaping, so they simply let go and looked like trapped beasts.
It's just that after all, they have been frightened by Guo Yang and Anu's team of thirty people, even if they have a desperate heart, their hands and feet are a little numb, and they are not the opponents of these old and disabled women and children at all.
The one-sided slaughter began, and the horses, who had lost their owners, felt themselves retreating to the vicinity, and gathered in a circle, snorting incessantly.
And the wild wolf that spread all over the mountains, without the command of the wizard Atumu, even lay on the ground strangely, a little absent-minded.
……
"Young man, you are very smart and powerful." Atumu stood on the ox cart, looked at Guo Yang three or four steps away, and said lightly.
"What's your name?" Guo Yang asked.
"My name is Atumu, and I am a wizard from Southern Xinjiang." Atumu stretched out his hand and smoothed his long hair back to his head, as if he wanted Guo Yang to see his face clearly.
"Those wolves, are you in control?" Guo Yang asked.
"Yes. Our Great Elder negotiated a deal with the regent of the Zhou people, and we helped his fiefdom of the Great Yan Kingdom to open up a territory of 3,000 miles. Atumu said.
"The regent of the Zhou people? Is it Zhou Gongdan? Guo Yang frowned and asked, to be honest, he didn't have a good influence on that Zhou Gongdan, and felt that he was a sanctimonious hypocrite.
"No, it's Zhao Gongxi, another regent." Atumu corrected.
"What deal did you make?" Guo Yang asked. He was a little strange, what kind of deal would these mysterious tribes in the depths of the Thunder Swamp have with the Zhou people?
"It's a good deal for both of us. As for what the deal is, it's not up to us little wizards to know. Atumu said lightly.
"You drove the wolves and killed a lot of people." Guo Yang looked at Atumu's pale face, as if he wanted to remember him.
"Not as many as they kill themselves." The wizard Atumu seemed tired, and he sat down slowly, pinching the swarthy horn and stroking it gently.
"You're not afraid I'll kill you?" Guo Yang walked over and sat on the wheel of the ox cart, looking a little tired and looking at the battlefield a little bored.
The battle was nearing its end, and the three Zhou men fled on horseback, and Wang Huzi led a dozen men on horseback to chase after him. Anu commanded everyone to gather the horses together and slowly led them into the cottage.
The bodies of those Zhou soldiers were piled up into a small mountain, and they were soon set ablaze, and puffs of scarlet and black smoke rose into the sky, like some reluctant ghosts, drifting away with the wind.
……
"Why are you helping me?" Guo Yang suddenly turned his head and asked, staring at the eyes of the wizard Atumu very seriously.
"I didn't help you." Atumu looked directly at Guo Yang's gaze.
"You made the wolves stop." Guo Yang said.
"When it's time to stop, you might as well let them stop." Atumu Road.
"Thank you, Atumu." Guo Yang slowly stood up and said.
"Thank you too." Wizard Atumu said.
"Thank me for what?" Guo Yang asked in surprise.
"You haven't killed me yet." Atumu said with a smile and slowly stood up.
Guo Yang suddenly found that this wizard was too old, so old that he was a mess, like a handful of bones from ancient times, as if the wind blew, it would quietly disperse.
