XXIV On the Broken Camp
"Huh?"
Liu Ce found that the thieves in the distance were no longer rushing towards him in a swarm like before, and when they ran to a hundred meters, they divided into three groups and came from different directions.
"Oh, that's interesting." Liu Ce snorted coldly, knowing the intention of the thief on the other side, he wanted to attack from the side, if he couldn't do it within a few dozen steps, but if he started to show his intention at such a distance, it was ridiculous.
"Quartet!" Liu Ce shouted and gave the order to change the formation, and the formation of more than 120 people in front of the formation, who were originally 40 people in a column, changed instantly, and the extremely harsh formation training in the past two days played a role.
The front formation of the Wandering People's Army was slightly jerky and changed to fifteen people, divided into two columns, each column and one side, raising shields to prepare for battle.
Guo Tao, Huzi and the wounded man and several other homeless people with the army lined up in the middle of the formation.
Seeing the change in the formation of the displaced people on the opposite side, Ergou secretly complained, no longer understanding the military column, he understood that this kind of lineup was more difficult than before.
"What a bullshit military division, Lao Tzu has poured blood mold for eight lifetimes." Knowing that there was no dead end in the front formation, but he had to rush forward, Hu Kui gave a death order.
Looking at the thieves who were gradually rushing in, Sun Cheng couldn't help trembling because of his excitement, "Yang Fan, you want to surpass Lao Tzu, wait for the next life." He muttered secretly in his heart, since Liu Ce's performance could not be surpassed, he simply didn't expect it, and it was the most wonderful to continue to overpower Yang Fan.
"Hahaha, come on, watch Lao Tzu cut off your heads one by one!" Feng Chou Nian yelled even more excitedly, and the eardrums of everyone around him were numb.
Chen Qing held the spear in his hand and said nothing, and Feng Ying, who was in the same column, was even more indifferent, and the twin hammers in the water were ready to be swung at any time.
Han Feng took out a feather arrow and aimed it at his target with a bow......
"Kill!" Dozens of steps away, the thieves slaughtered towards the formation with a hideous face, and they could already clearly see their almost crazy demeanor......
"Defense!" Yang Kaishan's roar sounded again, and the queues on all sides immediately raised their shields to meet the onslaught of the thieves......
The rogues slammed into the outcast's shield again, and the formation was slightly distorted, but soon pushed back again in the midst of everyone's shouts, and a bunch of rogues in front of them were topped upside down, but were immediately pushed back by the rogues behind them.
"Thorn!" Liu Ce roared, and dozens of bamboo spears (knives and axes and hammers) on all sides stabbed out (swung) like tigers out of holes, and the sound of soldiers cutting into flesh sounded on the battlefield again.
The thief who rushed on Yang Kaishan's body took advantage of his inattention and slashed at Yang Kaishan's body, but the inferior long knife couldn't break through the iron armor on Yang Kaishan's body at all, Yang Kaishan glanced at the thief coldly, and waved a knife with a pillar of blood, the thief left a deep knife mark from his waist to his chest, Yang Kaishan kicked him and flew out, knocking down a piece of thieves who were about to rush up.
"One!" Yang Fan's round shield blocked a thief's slash, and a knife slashed through his neck at a rapid pace, and he also kicked away.
"Poof~" Han Feng shot over a rogue with an arrow, quickly transferred the array, and shot out one arrow at a time, so closely, six or seven people had already died under his arrows......
"Haha, are you happy!" Feng Chou old axe a horizontal split, fell three thieves, one of the waist was cut off in half, intestines fell to the ground, frightened lying on the ground and let out an inhuman roar, their own front of the homeless people saw this, endured the feeling of vomiting, and sent the bamboo gun into the body of the thief in front of him.
Feng Ying smashed a hammer on the head of a thief, and blood immediately scattered, splashing out from the thief's seven holes......
Yang Youhuai slashed down a thief with a knife and muttered: "It's still easy to use a chain hammer." β
"Put away the gun!" After Liu Ce overturned the two thieves who stepped forward, Yang Kaishan's roar came again.
Everyone pulled out the bamboo spear fiercely, and then without waiting for Yang Kaishan to order to raise the shield in front of his chest to defend again......
"Thorn!" Liu Ce roared, and dozens of people died under this wave of bamboo guns.
Two waves of bamboo guns stabbed out, and hundreds of corpses were already lying in front of the battle, and the homeless people with bamboo guns had been completely stimulated at this time, and mechanically raised their guns according to the instructions, stabbing them! Put away the gun, raise the gun again, stab!
Looking at the battle situation in the distance, Hu Kui's face was extremely ugly, and Qian Bing shrank aside without saying a word, for fear of being held accountable by Hu Kui, and saw that the battle situation was 108,000 miles away from his expectations, and he trembled......
"Thorn!" I don't know how many times the military order came, the phalanx of homeless people was still mechanically harvesting the lives of the thieves in front of them, surrounded by corpses, forming a large circle, and the blood stained the earth red. Seven homeless people were stabbed by the thieves' short spears and fell on the battlefield, and four homeless people were injured, Guo Tao and Liu Hu nervously bandaged their wounds......
"The whole army obeys the order!" Liu Ce killed a thief with one shot, and gave the order again, "Advance towards the enemy line of thieves!" β
A loud roar suddenly came out of the formation, and he slowly walked towards the thief, and his footsteps were surprisingly consistent......
"Escape...... Run......" A thief could no longer stand the fear, shouted frantically, turned around and ran, and the thief was in chaos again and again, and began to flee in all directions.
"Don't run!" The two dogs were in a hurry, and hurriedly stopped it, and the short spear in the water stabbed into the back of a thief who was fleeing, and was about to pull out the spear but was slashed in the shoulder by a thief behind him.
"Ahh The second dog threw away the short spear in pain, and looked back at the thief, only to see that the thief looked frightened and ran away like crazy.
"Don't run, come back......" Ergou endured the pain and wanted to chase the thief, but then there was a neat shout, and he saw a wooden wall slowly approaching a few steps away, and he clearly saw the murderous light in the eyes of the homeless.
"No!" The second dog was frightened, and immediately turned around and ran, but before he could take a few steps on the ground, he tripped over the corpse of the thief who had stabbed him to death before, and his face was covered with dirt.
Ergou was in pain and wanted to get up and run away, suddenly felt a pain in his back, the tip of a bamboo gun appeared in his chest, and suddenly felt that his whole body strength seemed to be evacuated, at the moment when the bamboo gun was withdrawn, he tried to turn around and wanted to see who was behind him, only to see a bloody face looking at him angrily, this is the most terrible expression that Ergou has ever seen in his life.
Before the words "...... you" were spoken, he saw a square shield covered with mud smashed into his face, and the second dog fell to the ground with his eyes wide open, and his face was full of incredulity......
Scattered everywhere, thieves were all over the mountain, and everyone in front of the camp was frightened, Hu Kui knew that this group of people had been abolished, so they would go, but as long as they dared to rush their own camp, they would cut down.
"What now?" Hu Kui was also a little panicked, originally thought that this was just an extremely easy battle, but he didn't expect it to become this situation, 800 people, almost all of the more than 100 homeless people in this area were killed, and there were less than 200 people left in front of him, how to fight?
"Hmph, I said earlier that the group of people who just joined the gang are unreliable, look, I'm right, right?" Sun San boasted of his assertiveness with a smug face, in his eyes those thieves could not be compared with himself, although the group of homeless people on the other side looked different, but in his heart, he felt that the homeless people were just homeless people after all, which was also the common voice of dozens of sharp soldiers around.
"Boss, I think let's go, as long as there are thirty people, we can kill them all!" Sun San took the initiative to ask Hu Kui to fight, he is now a sharp soldier, and he urgently needs to show his meritorious service, now there are almost all thieves in the vicinity of Ganzhou, and there are not many officers and soldiers who let themselves make meritorious contributions, how can he miss such a good opportunity in front of him.
Hu Kui bowed his head and said nothing, those half-hung thieves will die if they die, it's not a big deal, this kind of person in the army can catch a lot of them and replenish them at any time, but if Ruibing has a mistake, he will be blamed, and he will end up in a different place.
"General Hu, the little one thinks that it is best to close the gate of the camp as soon as possible and send someone to Gaoyang for help." Qian Bing was deeply shocked by the displaced people in front of him, and plucked up the courage to suggest to Hu Kui.
"Asking for help?" Sun San snorted coldly, "Just these 100 or so homeless people are worth going to Gaoyang for help?" How do you have a head? Besides, Gaoyang is 600 miles according to this, and it will take two or three days to go back and forth quickly, not to mention whether Gaoyang will send reinforcements, even if it is sent, it will take three or four days after the dispatch is completed, and it will take ten days to come even if it is fast, so it will take nearly twenty days to come and go, what to do in these twenty days? Do you stay in the stockade and don't come out? Can you promise that the homeless person on the other side will say yes? You idiot! Didn't you create this situation now? He also claimed to be a military advisor, and his brain was kicked by a donkey before he used your goods! β
Qian Bing's scolded dog was drenched in blood, and he was suddenly speechless and stopped talking.
"Alright, stop arguing! Let me think. Hu Kui interrupted the argument between the two and looked at the homeless people in front of him in deep thought.
"Stop the whole army and rest in place!" Yang Kaishan roared, and when he was less than two hundred meters away from the bandit camp, he saw that the bandit camp showed no signs of sending troops, so he ordered the whole army to stop and start resting, so that the homeless people could recover their strength and cope with the follow-up battle.
Liu Ce looked at the camp of thieves close at hand, holding a spear in his hand and was silent for a long time, this was the first battle he really commanded in this world, not to fight for power, but simply to eat and live, and it was embarrassing to think about it.
"What do you think?" Chen Qing approached Liu Ce, looked at the huge camp in front of him with Liu Ce, and asked casually.
"I wondered, what are we living for?" Liu Ce slowly spoke, this world is far worse than he thought, is it worth living for such a day of licking blood from the knife edge.
"Of course, I live to eat and drink, marry a girl and pass on the lineage, what else can I do." Chen Qing didn't understand what Liu Ce meant, so he could only try his best to say what was in his heart.
"yes, that's what you're living for, what else can you do?" Liu Ce was a little confused, and muttered along with Chen Qing's words.
"Brother Liu! What happened to you? It's not like you! Chen Qing suddenly found that Liu Ce was a little different now, although the two had not really known each other for a long time, but he had the impression that Liu Ce was a very decisive person, who dared to think and dare to do, not like this.
Liu Ce turned his head, smiled at Chen Qing, turned to look at the homeless people sitting on the ground, and saw that there was a little less numbness in their eyes, and more hope......
"For the sake of dignity!" Liu Ceden suddenly brightened up, understood the true purpose of bringing this group of people to fight, he has seen too many tragedies since he came to this world for more than two months, whether it is those homeless people or thieves, there is a look of despair, since God has arranged for him to come to this world, then do his best to let these people see hope! This may be what you should do when you come to another world!
"Chen Qing, return to the team to rest, and then there will be a vicious battle! Keep it up! Let's get through it together! Liu Ce patted Chen Qing on the shoulder and walked towards the camp, leaving Chen Qing confused and in place.
At this time, in the camp of the thieves, the thieves stood on both sides, watching the sharp soldiers in the middle divided into several factions and had a fierce quarrel over the question of whether to stay or go.
"I think it's just a matter of killing them, those homeless people are no big deal, take them all together!"
"Take a fart! If you want to go, Lao Tzu will not accompany me, I will simply stay in the camp, anyway, there is enough food and grass, see what he can do to me. β
"Idiot! What if the first-class people attack the village? How long can that half-human tall wooden fence hold? I thought that I simply abandoned the village, and when I returned to Gaoyang, I said that when an army of officers and soldiers attacked, the enemy could not be defeated, and the above would not do anything to us. β
"Grandson, look at your cowardice! There are only more than 100 people, and you abandon the village? So much food and iron in the camp just gave up? Lao Tzu has been mixed for so long and finally has today, do you want to continue to gnaw on the bark and eat meat? β
Seeing that everyone was gossiping, they were about to fight, Hu Kui shouted to stop them from arguing, in fact, it was not unthinkable to abandon the village, but it was a pity to give up so many materials in the village, but if you don't abandon the village, you really don't have enough confidence to win against the group of homeless people.
The fall of Gaoyang made the upper class of thieves decay rapidly, just like a diligent office worker who suddenly won the jackpot much more than he got a lifetime of dead wages, and suddenly began to spend extravagantly, drunk and dreamed of death, and no longer had the same motivation as before, just like Hu Kui, who struggled on the line of life and death every day, but after the capture of Gaoyang, it was like making a huge windfall, and he was used to living a life of drunkenness.
"Why don't you talk to the homeless people outside, give them some food, let them retreat first, and then recapture them when the Gaoyang army arrives?" Hu Kui proposed a plan that he felt was compromised, but was immediately counterattacked by Sun San and others.
"Boss, you're not dizzy, are you? We have always been the only ones who robbed others, and we have not heard of giving food to people, if we wear them out, not to mention the above thoughts, even if those ordinary people know about it in the future, and they will also oppose us one after another, then where is the prestige of our army?" Sun San's face was red and he said to Hu Kui.
"That's it, boss, your idea is too naΓ―ve, and it is known from above that you are going to lose your head."
"I'll just assume I didn't hear it, so don't talk about it."
"It's a shame to do this, and we can't afford to lose this person if you lose it."
β¦β¦
The gossip of the crowd made Hu Kui even more embarrassed, and he stopped talking for a long time.
"Boss, do it! Isn't it just the 100th outcast? As long as you give an order, the brothers will go to the soup and the fire! Sun San slapped his chest with a straight sound, and the shaking nail leaf couldn't help but make a "bang-la-la" metal impact.
Seeing that Hu Kui still didn't speak, Sun San hurriedly said, "Even if you plan to give them food, what if they are not satisfied?" In the end, it's not about working together, rather than doing this, simply kill it in one fell swoop in exchange for life! Don't worry, boss, I'll take care of it! β
Sun San was in a hurry to perform, of course, not for Hu Kui, after he tasted the benefits of his status improvement, he wanted to climb up, originally those homeless people outside the camp didn't matter, it was not a big deal to think about it, he didn't want to lose most of the thieves under the first war, so he felt that his opportunity had come again, as long as he killed all those homeless people and added fuel and vinegar, he would definitely climb to the position of "general".
Of course, Hu Kui knew what he was thinking, but now he was helpless, he thought about it for a while, seemed to have made up his mind, got up and said to Sun San: "Okay, it's up to you, I'll give you another twenty people, a total of fifty sharp soldiers, you must kill all those homeless people outside the village for me!" β
When Sun San heard this, there were twenty more people, and his eyes immediately lit up: "Don't worry, just wait in the camp for me to come back victorious!" After saying that, he strode towards the outside of the camp with 50 sharp soldiers.
Seeing Sun San leaving, he sighed, now there are less than thirty sharp soldiers in the camp, I hope there will be no accidents, otherwise this camp will be over, and his future will be over.
