Chapter 090: Close Encounter
In the face of a common enemy, in the face of death, the residents of Wei Jiaji are truly united.
All the material is used without compensation, and all the labor force is mobilized.
Now, the residents of Weijiaji have a common goal - to live!
Stay alive!
Stay alive!
The corpses in the square are still burning, not a few days and nights will not be burned, that is nearly 20,000 corpses, the air is filled with the smell of burnt corpses, if you don't want to be one of them, you must face it bravely, overcome fear, and use your own strength to protect your family.
There are no sacred goals, no loud slogans, no lofty ideals, everything is just for survival.
When it comes to survival, Liu Fei is a survival expert, whether it is in the grassland, or in the desert, or in the jungle, no matter how harsh the environment, he can survive, he has been trained in all kinds of survival since he was five years old, he can turn any object into weapons, branches, stones, gravel......
Liu Fei's resting place was transferred from the ancestral hall to the municipal building, and in fact, Wei Jiaji's temporary headquarters was also transferred from the ancestral hall to the municipal building.
In Weijiaji, there is no building that is more than the height of the municipal building, and you can have a bird's-eye view of the entire Weijiaji, and use it as the general headquarters to get information at the first time.
……
Just when Liu Fei was hurrying to rest, Seke was standing on a high slope in the prairie, from here, you could have a bird's-eye view of the entire Wei Jiaji, and the sky-high flames of burning corpses illuminated the square, and tens of thousands of praying residents could see it in front of them.
Seke's face was hideous, and at his feet, he stepped on a fat corpse, everyone in Wei Jiaji knew this corpse, because he was the supreme governor of Wei Jiaji.
In fact, it wasn't the only corpse, on that high slope, there were layers of corpses, the weeds were stained red with blood, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.
All the officials and policemen of Wei Jiaji, including their families, have been reduced to cold corpses, and they have no power to resist in the face of the slaughter of the gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry.
Annoyed, Seck blames the failure of Wei Jiaji on the incompetence of the city officials and the police department, and in fact, it is true, if these officials and police officers can do their jobs dutifully, those filthy people will have no time to set those hateful traps.
In front of Seke, there were fifty-seven corpses in military uniform, not city officials and policemen, but his subordinates, gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry.
Seck knew that his political career was over, that he was a failed military man.
In the history of the Utopian Republic, he broke the record for the highest number of military deaths, which was a great shame for him.
The top brass of Utopia City are unlikely to promote a failed military man.
The higher-ups of Utopia City could not tolerate the loss of fifty-seven gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry in such a simple mission.
In the Southern Military District, no one understood better than Seck the place of gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry in the top of the utopia, who represented the supreme honor, a myth in their army.
Now the myth is shattered in his hands......
……
There was a hint of coolness in the prairie at night, looking at the raging flames of Wei Jiaji, Seke's chest seemed to contain 10,000 tons of explosives and nowhere to vent, and the task he thought could be easily completed suddenly became complicated, and his future was ruined.
Shame can only be washed away with blood and life!
"A squadron is camped on the spot and prepares food!" Seck unsheathed his long knife and said loudly.
"Yes, General"
"The second squadron is on the periphery of Weijiaji to take care of the war horses, and the third squadron and the fourth squadron are lightly armed and attack Weijiaji!"
"Yes, General!"
Everyone replied violently, and in the darkness, the team of 2,000 heavy ironclad cavalry was divided into four squadrons, one stayed to set up camp, and the other three squadrons followed Seke to sneak to Wei Jiaji.
After arriving at the periphery of Weijiaji, in addition to leaving one cavalry to respond, the other two cavalry disarmed and dismounted with thousands of people, went into battle lightly, and followed Seke to take advantage of the darkness to touch Weijiaji.
Even if he lost more than fifty people at the beginning, Wei Jiaji was still not taken seriously by these heavy ironclad cavalry, even if they didn't ride war horses, they could still easily defeat those dirty and despicable people, because they were all gladiators who were infinitely close to the seventh order.
In the Utopia Republic, the status of a sixth-order gladiator is quite high, in fact, among the common people, a sixth-order gladiator is very rare, like Wei Jiaji, a total population of 100,000, the population of the jurisdiction is as high as 600,000, there are only a handful of sixth-order gladiators, and seventh-order gladiators are even rarer, just Wei Xiaotian alone, it can be seen how rare a sixth-order gladiator is.
Now, the eighth-order gladiator Seke and the thousandth-order sixth-order gladiator cavalry have become infantry, although this makes them feel very aggrieved, but in order to complete the task, they can't care so much about explaining to the top of the Utopian Republic.
The closer we got to Wei Jiaji, the darker it became, the burning fire in the square could not penetrate the layers of buildings, and the burned ruins cast hideous shadows in the moonlight.
Be quiet!
Be quiet!
It's suffocatingly quiet.
Inexplicably, Seck had a feeling of panic, and this strange silence made him feel an extreme danger, and the darkness under those shadows seemed to lurk countless desolate beasts, waiting for an opportunity at any time.
Seker's tall and strong body was slightly bent, the muscles on his arms were raised high, and the whole thing looked full of explosive power, like a hunting cheetah, but this eighth-order gladiator who looked like a cheetah looked a little nervous, and the sharp long knife was clenched in his hand, trembling invisibly with the naked eye.
Seker, who had lost his horse, was a little uncomfortable for a while, although he was a gladiator, but more often than not, he was a gladiator cavalryman, and he was better at high-speed sprints than sneaking in the dark like a mouse.
An indescribable fear permeated Secker's heart.
The soldiers behind Seck didn't feel fear, because they didn't have the kind of perception of an eighth-order gladiator, and they didn't know that Seck felt the crowd lurking in the darkness.
This is the truth that the ignorant are fearless.
One!
Two!
Three!
Fifty!
Five hundred!
Fifteen hundred!
Three thousand!
……
Seke, who was sneaking in the dark, silently calculated, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his psychological pressure was getting bigger and bigger, he couldn't understand a little, why didn't those unarmed residents of Weijiaji run away?
Is there a trap?
Is there an ambush?
With the experience of the past, Seck walked cautiously on thin ice at every step, he knew that there were many people lurking in the buildings around him, but he did not dare to attack, he still kept a silent state and sneaked towards the square, at least, there was light there, he had decided to occupy the square and use it as a camp.
The darkness seemed to have become a weapon for the residents of Wei Jiaji, Seck had never found out that the darkness could be so terrifying, in this indissolvable darkness, he could feel his accelerated heartbeat, exploding pores, and large dripping sweat.
Fear is contagious.
As early as the Earth era, scientists have confirmed that when someone is afraid, it will emit a substance, and this substance can also affect the people around him, at this time, fear will spread like a plague, and now, Seke's fear has spread among a thousand gladiator cavalry, and the soldiers have become cautious and timid, and the original galloping war spirit has been disintegrated.
According to the plan, after going deep into Weijiaji, these thousand people should be divided into a hundred squads to slaughter in the streets and alleys with impunity.
Throughout, Seck did not give the order to split up, he had a strong premonition that their situation would become more dangerous if they separated, and he just wanted to rush to the square early and occupy it.
Trench!
It's a trench again!
Or a trench!
After crossing three trenches in succession, a thousand soldiers were already covered in mud and exhausted, it was really incredible, and the bluestone street where horses galloped during the day actually appeared one after another trenches several meters deep.
When he reached the fourth trench, Seck suddenly realized that he had made a stupid mistake, he should not have attacked at night, this was Weijiaji, even a three-year-old child should be more familiar with the terrain of Weijiaji than they did.
He could have swaggered into the Wei family during the day, and there was no need to venture into this frightening darkness.
"Retreat!" Seck was an excellent commander, he knew how to introspect, he knew how to correct his mistakes, and after coming to his senses, he immediately gave the order to retreat.
"Yes, General!"
A thousand soldiers began to withdraw methodically the way they came, alas, late,
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
……
First one person shouted to kill, followed by dozens, hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands of people shouted together, the sound of killing was earth-shattering, the sky fell apart, and in the shouting of killing like a tide, stones, torches, lime, wooden spears, and even boiling water were thrown from the ruined ruins of the surrounding walls......
Everything that could hurt the enemy, everything that could cause damage to the human body rained down like drops on both sides of the street.
A thousand cavalry were frightened by the shouts of tens of thousands of people, and this sudden blow made them panic, as the so-called defeat was like a mountain, a thousand soldiers fled for their lives, and those few trenches made them roll into a mass and collapse the army, they pulled each other, trampled each other, cries, and screams were mixed together, as if the end was coming......
Seck desperately maintained order, and even slashed two cavalrymen to death with a long knife, but he still could not stop the cavalry fleeing for their lives.
Some brave residents of Wei Jiaji rushed into the streets and scuffled with the soldiers, and in the darkness it was impossible to distinguish friend from foe, and the scene became more and more chaotic.
The crowds in the streets grew, at first hundreds, then thousands, and the dense crowd formed a vast sea that almost drowned a thousand gladiator cavalry.
Poor Kou Mo Chase!
The residents of Weijiaji also made a big mistake, they were not facing ordinary soldiers, they were facing the wolf-like sixth-order gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry, although they did not have the invincible bravery, but they were not able to defeat, not to mention, those gladiators all had killing weapons in their hands, and the weapons in their hands were kitchen knives and sticks, the gap between the two was too big......
Although the gladiator cavalry was frightened, when in danger, killing would become an instinct, the long knife kept harvesting life in the dark, and the residents of Weijiaji fell one by one, but no one knew that the fanatical people were carried away by the instantaneous victory, and chased frantically all the way, and even, when the cavalry rushed out of Weijiaji, there were still thousands of residents chasing and beating the water dogs and rushing into the prairie.
Soon, the inhabitants of Weijiaji entered a terrible nightmare from the joy of victory, and the five hundred gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry who met outside slaughtered like tigers rushing into a flock of sheep, and they were kings in the grassland......
……
The stumps and severed arms flew sideways in the air, blood shot out, and the screams were incessant, and the residents of Weijiaji woke up from the victory frenzy, and rushed into the criss-crossing buildings, leaving behind the broken corpses everywhere......
……
Eighteen hundred!
Looking at the rows of corpses in the square, Liu Fei's face was pale, he couldn't imagine that he would lose so many manpower just by taking a nap, you know, these people are all strong young people.
"Who ordered the attack?!"
Liu Fei's cold gaze swept through the crowd, and there was a depressing silence, and at this time, people remembered that this young man had said that it was strictly forbidden to have close contact with the gladiator heavy ironclad cavalry.
The inhabitants of Wei Jiaji are not soldiers, they have no sense of discipline, strictly speaking, they are a rabble, because they are united by a common goal of survival.
"I want to know who gave the order to rush out first, who? Stand out! Liu Fei's gaze was like a blade, which was terrifying.
“…… Be...... I ......" A middle-aged man hesitated, stood up, and replied with a slurred mouth, not daring to meet Liu Fei's gaze.
