Chapter 214: All Must Die!
Xue Shao stretched out his finger and compared it in front of his eyes, and quickly counted the number of Turkic cavalry with shorthand.
"Thirty-nine!" Xue Shao and Guo Sandao spoke almost at the same time.
The third knife glanced back at Xue Shao, his expression was still so hideous, but there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
"Let's do it, there are a lot of us!" The bull bolded and muttered quietly.
As soon as the three knives raised the whip in his hand, Niu Ben shrank in fright.
Everyone lurked quietly and watched this group of Turkic cavalry run past their eyes and rush into the village.
"Come here." With a wave of his hand, everyone gathered around him, except for the scouts and the people who guarded the horses, in a fan-shape.
Guo Sandao said: "The establishment of the Turkic soldiers is the same as that of the Tang Army, and this batch of Turkic soldiers should be a full team, plus the main and deputy teams are about fifty-two people or more. The villagers in that village should be more than lucky, and those who are alive may be held hostage by their people. So we can't act rashly! β
Niu Ben suddenly realized, "The brigade is so smart, those five went back to call accomplices just now, and there must have been accomplices who had already stepped on the village to calm down the villagers - just like when the wild wolf came to steal the sheep!" β
One of the guards next to him said: "The Turks are accustomed to making a horn for every three people, five people for a battle circle, ten people dare to slaughter the village when they are fired, and if they gather a team of fifty people, they dare to fight against ten times their own official army!" Whenever the Turks attacked a place, they would inevitably send outposts to pick their eyes, and if they could succeed, they would set fire to smoke and send scouts with heads to return, both of which were indispensable, otherwise the brigade would not advance to avoid falling into the trap. Since there is a group of Turkic soldiers in this village, it is very likely that there is still the main force of their brigade not far away, which is scattered everywhere to burn, kill and loot, and all of them will be evacuated at the appointed time! If you rush to attack, you will definitely startle the snake! Not only can't we save these villagers, but we're all going to die here! β
Niu Ben was dumbfounded, "That's ......"
The guard slapped Niu Ben's helmet, "The commander has been in northern Xinjiang for many years, and he knows the terrain and terroir and the tactics and habits of the Turks well, and this is what he taught us - you are a new soldier, listen more and learn more and interject less!" β
Xue Shao listened quietly, these are rich experiences that can't be learned from books!
"Because there are two recruits, I wasted extra time talking nonsense!" Guo Sandao glanced at Niu Ben and Xue Shao coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Now listen to my orders, Jiahuo is divided into two groups of scouts, and they will trace along the mountain road from which the Turks came to check to see if there is the main force of the brigade behind them; B Fire guards the horses; Divided into two groups of scouts, Binghuo outflanked the village in two directions, north and south, and carefully investigated the reality of the enemy army entering the village! The rest of the men and horses are all on standby and ready to fight! β
"Yes!"
The guards of Binghuo immediately began to take off their armor and dazzling knightly robes, leaving behind their horses and crossbows, armed only with swords and short blades, and prepared to lurk into the village.
Xue Shao is the guardian of Binghuo!
Everyone's movements were very fast, and Guo Sandao stared at Xue Shao for a long time, and when he finished changing clothes, he waved Sandao, "Come here." β
Xue Shao came to his side.
"You've been a scout?" The three knives asked.
Xue Shao shook his head, "No." β
"Don't try to lie to me." Guo Sandao said, "You actually know how to pinch the counting method, and say, who taught you?" β
"Learn from a retired veteran." Xue Shao smiled, I saw it when Wu Ming was teaching the moon slave, and he talked to me. But do I still need him to teach such a simple thing?
Sandao didn't ask any more questions, "Be smart, go ahead!" β
"Yes!" Xue Shao knew in his heart that the third sword was deliberately giving him more opportunities to refine.
Ten people in one fire, the cat shuttled through the woods with his waist and advanced towards the village.
Xue Shao had so much jungle special warfare experience in his previous life, and now he is really like a fish in water. Several veterans who traveled with him were surprised, this recruit was even more profitable than us, this is unreasonable!
A group of ten people touched the vicinity of the village, all of them were like predatory lynxes lurking in the mountains and forests, silently moving lightly, fanning out to observe the situation in the village from different angles.
Xue Shao crawled to the edge of the village, and a private house in front of him was already close at hand. He had already stared at a tall and dense locust tree behind a private house, which was the best cover and could occupy the highest point to observe almost the whole of the village.
The closer he got to the house, the more clearly Xue Shao could hear the woman's cry and the man's rude and shameless laughter coming from the room.
Anyone with a little experience in this voice can understand what those shameless Turks are doing to a woman.
Xue Shaoqiang resisted the urge to kill in his heart, climbed to the height of the big locust tree in three or two, hidden in the thickest branches of the leaves, and observed condescendingly through the pores of the leaves.
The village is small, like a gourd-shaped, with only about thirty or forty households. The edge of the gourd seems to have been cut and reclaimed next to the mountain forest, and the houses are built next to the mountain forest. The abdomen of the larger two gourds is a large open space in the village, which should be a large flat usually used for sacrifices, gatherings or drying grain.
At this time, a large amount of firewood and grass was piled up on the soil in the small hinterland of the gourd, which should be the "beacon fire" placed by the outpost of the Turks before. On the earthen flat of the hinterland, a large number of villagers gathered, and a group of Turkic soldiers wearing wooden armor and gray linen robes, and rolled sheepskin hats, carried a bright five-foot scimitar in their hands, and occasionally threw out the leather whips in their hands and whipped into the crowd.
Seven or eight people had already fallen in pools of blood, and their heads had been cut off. The rest of the villagers were huddled together, and a few children were crying incessantly.
Xue Shao counted the heads, and there were thirty-one Turkic soldiers and eighty-four ordinary people in the big tuping. The rest of the Turkic soldiers should have taken the women of the village into the houses to wreak havoc, or to search for the scattered people and their wealth.
At this moment, the cries of the women in the houses under the big locust tree suddenly stopped, and several Turkic men began to curse in Turkic.
Xue Shao's heart suddenly tightened, and his qi and blood surged...... That village woman must have been killed!
The Turkic man in the house kicked open the door, swaggered out with a bloody human head, and threw the head at the crowd of villagers.
The villagers were so frightened that they screamed in panic, some of them cried loudly, and two children shouted "mother" and cried loudly.
"Brute !!" Xue Shao gritted his teeth and scolded in a low voice.
In the crowd of villagers, a white-haired old man in his sixties and seventies stood up, "I'll fight with you!" β
The two Turkic soldiers stepped forward and dragged the old man out of the crowd, stabbed him to the ground with a few swords, and then seven or eight men stepped forward and slashed the old man into a pile of flesh.
Xue Shao turned his head, his knuckles grasping the handle of the horizontal knife, his bones rattling
"Who dares to resist, take this as an example!!"
The Turkic soldier who had just come out with the woman's head raised the scimitar in his hand and roared loudly.
Xue Shao turned his head to look at the man, it seemed that he was still the leader of this group of Turkic soldiers. The Tang Dynasty ruled the steppe for fifty years, and although they were not completely sinicized, it is not surprising that the Turks could speak Chinese.
The villagers looked at the pile of headless corpses, the woman's head, and the pile of meat on the large earthen lawn, and they didn't dare to squeak and resist.
A group of unarmed villagers, facing a group of demons who have lost their humanity with swords in their hands, are powerless to resist.
"Listen!" The Turkic leader shouted, "From now on, all the men among you are my slaves!" The women among you are my concubines! You belong to me like cattle and horses, and you are not allowed to resist or run away! Otherwise, chop into mashed meat! β
At this time, more than a dozen Turkic soldiers, either carrying piles of belongings or leading cattle and sheep, or a few villagers who had escaped, gathered over.
The Turkic leader raised his scimitar and said a string of Turkic words, and the Turkic soldiers raised their knives and guns and let out a burst of cheers.
Xue Shao guessed that the leader should be talking about "sharing the spoils", and he should really learn a little Turkic in the future.
At this time, the Turkic leader walked into the crowd of Han people and grabbed a village woman from the middle.
The villagers were terrified, the village women were desperately struggling and begging for mercy, and the Turkic soldiers were laughing and laughing. A young man jumped up and resisted, and was immediately dragged aside, his head cut off and hung on the horse's neck, and his body was cut into a pulp.
The Turkic leader had two Turkic soldiers drag the woman into the house, and threw a naked headless corpse from it.
Xue Shao almost couldn't help jumping down, rushed into the house and chopped up the beast!
"Cuckoo - cuckoo!"
There was a soft sound of cipher under the tree, and Xue Shao slipped down the tree. Three comrades came.
The fire chief gestured to go back.
Xue Shao waved his hand, leaned into the fire chief's ear and said that the leader in this private house is the leader, and I am staring at it here - capture the thief and capture the king!
The fire chief pondered for a moment, nodded, and took the others back to report the news.
Xue Shao still climbed the tree and stared at the situation in the village. After a few moments, the Turks drove several villagers into their houses, and then smoke rose from the cooking. Firewood also rose on the large earthen lawn, and they slaughtered a few sheep with their hands.
It seems that the Turkic soldiers are not in a hurry to leave, and still want to cook a meal here.
"Severed head rice!"
Xue Shao's teeth clenched.
Later, the fire commander and a few guards went and returned, saying that the enemy situation was clear that there were no Turks nearby, and that the brigade commander had ordered the capture and killing of this group of Turkic soldiersβstart quickly so as not to accidentally injure the people, and eliminate all evil, and not one of them should escape!
"The leader of this private house, leave it to me!" Xue Shao pleaded.
"The situation has been arranged, just wait for the first strike here, success or failure is crucial. The Turks were the first to cull here! The fire chief hesitated, "Are you sure?" Don't be fooled! β
"I can do it!" Xue Shao was categorical.
"When you succeed, blow this horn!" The fire chief patted Xue Shao's shoulder, handed him a bull horn for Yue Qi, and quietly disappeared with the other brothers on their waists.
Although he was a new recruit, the fire captain gave Xue Shao full trust. Xue Shao suppressed the blood that was about to boil, and still climbed the tree, staring at the group of Turkic soldiers on the big soil flat.
The sky above your head is the sky of Datang, the home under your feet is the soil of Datang, and the people here are the people of Datang!
- Swear to defend it!
All of these brutes must die!!γ
