The flying sword fell with the falling snowflakes, slicing a crystal white elf in half in midair. As the slender snow-white blade fell, a fountain of crimson blood erupted. On the outskirts of Shanshan City, in a tribe less than fifty miles away from the Tuyuhun Kingdom, a massacre was going on. The Tang Warrior Wolf Rider with a sharp blade in his hand was slaughtering this tribe of 10,000 people, their faces were sad and angry, and the tears on their faces condensed into frost on their cheeks. Because they killed silently, wept silently, and the hot tears that went down first condensed on their faces, and those that followed covered them.
Because of the accident of black powder, Li Kuan led the wolf warrior to defeat several times more enemies than himself, and then turned back, and came to this tribe of the old, weak, sick and disabled, women, children and children, and the tents were covered with ice and snow, becoming the warmest house on this cold grassland. All the people of the tribe were gathered together, and the old man and the child and the young women and children were gathered inside, but he himself was on the outside. Although they are old and still have horses, they can't pull their strong bows. Moreover, there are not many war horses for them, except for those who were ridden away by the young and strong, there are only a few hundred horses left.
Such horses cannot run fast in this cold and harsh winter, these are eliminated on the battlefield before, and they are still needed when shepherding sheep on weekdays. But it was very difficult to escape with these horses. Just now a warrior from a tribe rode back on horseback. The warriors who were guarding their tribe were defeated by the group of raiders, who looked like Tang people. So they began to assemble.
"Aruba, let's threaten these people with those captured Datang two-legged sheep, if they are really Datang's army, then we will have something in our hands that threatens them!" An old Tuyuhun said.
"Hmmm! Yes, the two-legged sheep that haven't been disposed of are now considered waste! And the ewes that the warriors used to vent! The old Tuyuhun called Aruba thought about it and agreed, so the old Tuyuhun rushed into several tents, and then grabbed a large group of people from inside who were unclothed and even covered in red fruits. It's just that these people let them punch and kick out, and they didn't say a word, and they didn't resist.
The sound of horses' hooves rumbling from far and near. Gradually, these Tuyuhun people guarding the camp saw clearly the team galloping from a distance: everyone riding a tall horse had a series of red scars, and the leather armor on their bodies was covered with blood clots, revealing a black color, they were not wearing helmets, and the hair on their heads was also scattered, covering their faces scattered, and it was impossible to tell whether they were Tang or Tubo.
"¥%*T&*%^" A Tuyuhun man stood up, speaking the local dialect of Tuyuhun, but the group still rushed up on their own. I don't know if I understand it.
"It's the Tang people, the Tubo people can understand our words, but only the Tang people can't understand it!" The man quickly ran back into the crowd and said loudly.
"Then catch up with the two-legged sheep! These Tang people are the most concerned about the safety of their compatriots! Aruba said. I saw that the crowd behind him was separated, and a large group of Datang people were driven out, and their faces were numb. Without the slightest look, one by one, their cheeks were yellow. His eyes are deep-set, and his face is yellow and thin, and he looks like he has been hungry for a long time.
They are already desperate. These people were captured by the Tuyuhun people in that attack, and they did not know what fate awaited them, becoming slaves or being humiliated by a large group of Tuyuhun people who smelled of smoked sheep? Among these nomadic people who seem to be like beasts, there are many broken sleeves and peaches. But they never thought that such an ending awaited them, these days they were like living in hell, and what they saw and heard every day made them feel extremely frightened and extremely frightened. This is even darker and more terrifying than they imagined, they only know what purgatory on earth is in these days, the Central Plains Beacon Fire in the past few years is simply pediatric at this moment, and what happened to them when they were displaced is like heaven compared to now.
Li Kuan and the others slowly approached this tribe at this time, and as soon as they walked in, they had already seen this group of Tuyuhun people huddled together, as well as the group of Tang people who were pushed to the front by them.
"Don't come here, or we'll kill these people!" An old Tuyuhun shouted loudly in a very non-standard Guanzhong dialect.
"Boss...... What to do? Xue Wanche saw the group of Datang people who were used by them as human shields, and couldn't help but turn around and ask Li Kuandao.
"Stop!" Li Kuan said, he also saw the situation in front of him, these are the people of Datang, if they are real horse thieves, then they don't have to care about the life and death of these people, but they are not, so he also needs to think about it at this moment. Looking at these Tang people shivering in the cold wind, as well as their red fruit bodies, both men and women have no wisps of their bodies, and there are even countless traces of leather whips. This illustrates the brutal treatment they have been subjected to here. And Li Kuan noticed that the bodies of the few people who were behind and close to the Tuyuhun people were even more trembling like chaff. There was a deep soul-like fear on his face. This made Li Kuan have a bad omen in his heart.
Along the way, they had passed through many tribes one after another, those small tribes with only 100 households, small tribes with hundreds of people, and large tribes with thousands of people, all of which were quietly approached by them and then captured by surprise attacks. In these tribes, they found a lot of food, leather armor, and even medicinal herbs. Although only Li Kuan knew the origin of these things, in the eyes of all the people on the Wolf Warrior Rider, this was what the Tuyuhun people looted in the Tang Dynasty, otherwise the grain piled up in the tent would have been grown by themselves. So their hatred for Tuyuhun is getting deeper and deeper. Along the way, it fermented silently, waiting for a spark to ignite these hatreds into raging flames of anger. Burn this sinful nation in front of you to ashes.
It was in this tribe that the spark that ignited hatred burst forth. That is this group of people, who have suffered a lot of abuse from the Tuyuhun people. Now these people may have lost the will to live and have become a walking corpse. These are all their compatriots, they are all the people of the Tang Dynasty, and maybe some of them are their relatives in Paoze, that is, their relatives. Now that their loved ones have been abused like this, the resentment in their hearts has turned into a flame of anger.
The flame was a small tinder, but it had already begun to burn and would burn the tribe to the ground. But at this time, a shocking news came. even poured a basin of boiling oil on this flame, which was enough to burn the entire Tuyuhun, so that these men in the army of the Tang Dynasty had the idea of completely slaughtering a nation. It was a soldier, and he entered the camp very far back, not directly near the encirclement.
At the back, he suddenly heard a subtle sound, which made his heart move: Could it be Tuyuhun's ambush? So he rode straight in the direction from which the sound came, and looked in through the open tent.
This glance made his whole body stunned, and it took him a full half a sound before he reacted. Then he began to vomit loudly, which happened to him very hard to accept. So he rode his horse and galloped forward, and he was going to tell the general that he was going to slaughter this wicked people. Let this scum Tuguhun who is not worthy of survival in the world completely disappear in the long river of time. Even if it's just a newborn baby, a toddler. Such a nation should not survive in this world, this is the deepest wish of his heart. This was his truest heart after seeing that scene.
"General, there's a situation over there!" The soldier rushed forward. He didn't say what he saw, because he couldn't. That's just too much...... So he can only say such a general report, and let Li Kuan see the results himself. But I think that this general will definitely be furious after seeing it, and with his temper, if this tribe is slaughtered, he will not stop.
"What a situation! Let's take a look! Li Kuan turned the horse's head and thought in that direction with Xue Wanche.
"Beasts, beasts!" A loud shout came from which direction: "All listen to the order, bow on the string, the knife out of the sheath, kill all this tribe for me, if there is a pant later, all of you don't go back, just kill this nation on this grassland for me and then go back to Datang!" Li Kuan's angry voice came, this time he was angry, and he couldn't even use anger to describe his mood at this time, his only thought at this time was the same as the soldier before: such a nation is not worthy of surviving in this world.
"General, those people ......," Liu Wei said loudly.
"Now, death is the best relief for them! Let's send them on their way! On the Huangquan Road, everyone walks well, and the impatient is Li Kuan, the king of Chu, who assures you here that the entire Tuyuhun will be buried with you! Li Kuan rode to the Tuyuhun people who had been surrounded, and said to the people of the Tang Dynasty who were treated as meat shields.
Hearing his words, the last glimmer of light flashed in the eyes of these people, and then they nodded silently.
"Let ...... go," Li Kuan ordered, and then the soldiers behind him shot the arrows in their hands, at those people, at the old people, children, women and children.
The powerful arrow penetrated the bodies of these people, and then shot into the dirt under them, and the blood of sin remained, and seeped into the soil below the camp along with the innocent blood, although it had been frozen into a large piece of frozen soil, but the blood still seeped in, like mercury on the ground, pervasive. Tuyuhun also began to fight back and escape, but before they could rush out, they were hugged by the people of the Tang Dynasty who were still meat shields before, and then clusters of arrows pinned them tightly together.
Executors are ruthless, they just need to know what they need to do, so they follow orders without reservation, even if there are countless doubts in their minds, but that can only be done after the dust settles. Just like Liu Wei at this time, he listened to the order to kill everyone in front of him, so even if he had fallen to the ground in the rain of arrows, he asked the soldiers to come forward to check, stab them down, and kill every corpse again.
