Chapter 135: Survival of the Fittest
Chapter 135: Survival of the Fittest
No one dares to say that they have been discharged from the army, what kind of world is there now? Although it is not a world where white bones are exposed in the wilderness and there is no rooster crowing for thousands of miles, it is definitely not a world where a crippled person can survive.
Zhao Yu also gave some help to the recruits, and the recruits could choose weapons, while the captured minions could only choose to take a spear or a two-foot short knife captured from the battlefield, which still broke a lot. And it's still whether you love it or not, there are no human rights.
A minion was the first to come out, Zhao Yingwu looked at the other party coldly, and said indifferently: "What weapon to choose?" ”
The minion thought for a moment and said, "Short knife!" ”
Zhao Yingwu beckoned to the back, and a soldier randomly pulled out a short knife from the pile of weapons on the ground, not to mention the short knife, it also lacked the tip of the knife, and even the handle of the knife was only about one foot seven inches, very short, and even the arm of the minion was longer than this short knife.
However, something happened that made Zhao Yu's face ugly, and after several minutes, none of the recruits dared to come out. It stands to reason that soldiers should be picked out by lot. However, Zhao Yu was too lazy to waste time, and directly pointed to a recruit standing in front of him and said, "It's you!" Either go up, or run away in fear of war! ”
As a new army, the Shengjie army has strict military laws, and fleeing in fear of war is the most important thing. Although these recruits are from displaced backgrounds, not all of them are alone.
The recruit didn't even dare to say anything, and came out honestly, with an weapon rack next to him. The recruit bullied the minions with a short weapon and chose a red tassel gun, but in order to prevent the red tassel gun from losing its attack power after the opponent was close, he also chose a short knife and stuck it in his belt.
The venue for the competition has already been built, and it is surrounded by horses, bricks and wood, etc., and the diameter of the circle is about five zhang. One zhang is equivalent to about three meters one, and five zhang is fifteen meters five, although this range is not small, but it is really not large.
As the saying goes, one inch is long and one inch is strong, and the recruits with red tassel guns immediately have a lot of confidence, roar, and sprint.
Zhao Yu glanced at it and shook his head slightly.
Gongsun Xuanxu, who was standing beside Zhao Yu, glanced at Zhao Yu in surprise and said, "The prince doesn't seem to be optimistic about this recruit. ”
Zhao Yu also avoided taboos, nodded and said: "A warrior should have a firm mind, although this recruit chose the red tassel spear that restrained the opponent's weapon, but from the posture he held, it can be seen that he is not very good at the red tassel spear." Look at him attacking! As soon as it came up, it launched a sprint, and the stinging of the red tassel spear was certainly the most lethal of all the offensive methods, but if the stab could not hit the enemy, it would give the enemy a chance to get close. Therefore, with a gun, unless he is eighty percent sure, he will never stab out with all his strength, and he will leave three points of force when he shoots, and he is so inferior. ”
Things were as Zhao Yu expected, although the minion was captured, he had also experienced the battle. In the face of the indomitable thrust, he did not panic, but calmly avoided the thrust of the red tassel gun, and the person flashed into the range of the red tassel gun.
The recruits were already stabbing with guns, not only could they not get the guns back, but it was also difficult for people to stop immediately. At the moment when the recruit stabilized his body and caused his body to stiffen, the minion had already burst in front of the recruit.
The recruit reluctantly gave up the red tassel gun and pulled out the short knife at his waist. Compared to the Red Tassel Spear, the recruits don't know how to slash at all, and the attack is purely indiscriminate.
In contrast, although the minion doesn't know how to use swordsmanship, he also survived on the battlefield anyway, and the attack is very simple, but there is a characteristic, that is, it is sharp. Each knife goes to the point, there will be no goal, and at the same time, the knife is also very rhythmic, minimizing physical exertion, so as to launch an attack.
However, after eight or nine rounds, the recruits were already out of breath, and the attack involuntarily slowed down. Immediately seized the opportunity by the minions, slashed his throat, and fell to the ground with his eyes blank.
The minions raised their arms and roared excitedly, and many of the recruits showed frightened faces, and some of them were weak-minded, their faces were already pale, and their throats were gurgling, and they were afraid that they wanted to vomit.
Zhao Yu was a little disappointed with the recruits, but he did not scold or encourage the recruits, but announced very calmly: "Although you have been killed, you are the king's people in the end!" The recruit was treated as a death in battle, and gave his family fifty stone of grain and eight pieces of money as a pension, and at the same time asked the local government to find a place for his family to settle down, and the rent for one year was paid by the king. ”
Although Zhao Yu's approach is affectionate and righteous, it is still embarrassing.
This time, there is no need for Zhao Yu to order people, and another soldier comes out, Zhao Yu was a little surprised, when did these recruits become so courageous? Just now, Zhao Yu clearly saw that many people were frightened, their faces were blue, and their lips were white, and some people were afraid that they were secretly vomiting.
Gongsun Xuanxu, who was in charge of recruiting recruits, knew the reason, and explained to Zhao Yu with some embarrassment: "If Poor Dao is not mistaken, that person should be the younger brother of the recruits who were killed earlier. I just hope that he can get revenge, and the two brothers have stepped into Huangquan Road! ”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly, his eyes focused on the martial arts arena.
The younger brother's martial arts are also half a pound and eight taels compared to the elder brother, but probably for revenge, the younger brother didn't think about saving himself. Every time he attacks, he desperately draws out his knife and moves forward.
That minion probably didn't expect that this recruit was so fierce, he would have spared his life, otherwise he would not have surrendered to the Shengjie army and become a prisoner. After fighting for seven or eight rounds, the younger brother fought and was stabbed, and the minion was hit in the head with a long knife by the younger brother's gritted teeth, and the small half of the knife body fell into the head.
Zhao Yu said to Zhao Yingwu Nunu, Zhao Yingwu understood, stepped forward and pulled out the waist knife, and as a result, the life of the minion was relieved of his pain. The victorious recruit ignored the wound, but walked to his brother's corpse with a pale face, and Huo Ran knelt down and cried at his brother's corpse.
Zhao Yu frowned, there was no need for him to tell the soldiers to let the recruit leave with his brother's body, this is not a funeral home.
Two lives, one of which was still familiar to them, is now gone. The bloody reality suddenly made all the recruits know the cruelty of the battlefield, and their salary was not so easy to get. It's just that things have come to this point, and they are no longer allowed to choose, and the only thing they can do is kill a minion desperately.
It's a very straightforward, but bloody approach, survival of the fittest!
