Chapter 17: The Story Told by the Village Chief

The young village chief saw that the big pit had been dug and the trap had been arranged, and his heart was also steady. At this point, the two ends of the first rat are useless, and they are about to fight for their lives again. Since he is optimistic about this little child tax officer, he will gamble on the fate of the whole village and follow them all the way. If you lose, then you don't need to say anything, it's a big deal for the whole village to lose their lives, and if you win, ask the tax collector to help you talk to the lord of Wensha, and the whole village will move into the territory and stop suffering at the border.

After Lu Jingzhi instructed the Silly brothers to set up a trap, he asked someone to set up a fence outside the village, and when he came back, he saw the young village chief with a resolute face and wondered. Just now, I saw that the young village chief was still in a panic, why did he calm down now?

"Brother village chief, what are you ......" Lu Jingzhi imitated the resolute expression of the young village chief, although it was not like it, but there were three looks on his face.

"My lord, in the future, the fate of our Wei Village will be in your hands. The young village chief said resolutely. Sure enough, humans themselves still have other names for their own villages.

Lu Jingzhi said: "Brother Village Chief, what's going on?"

The young village chief said: "The villain is determined to lead the whole village and join the adults in rebelling against the 'opposite' tax collection team. ”

Lu Jingzhi was even more curious, and said, "Brother Village Chief, aren't you pursuing a neutral strategy, how can you easily join one side?"

The young village chief thought to himself: "If you hadn't set traps in the village, how could we have put our fate in your hands so easily?" Although he thought so in his heart, he resolutely said: "My lord, you are also a Han person, and I am also a Han person, it is better to hand over our fate to you than to hand it over to those zombies, monsters, skeletons, and ghosts." ”

Lu Jingyi gave a thumbs up and said, "It's rare that the eldest brother of the village chief has such great courage. If everyone is like this, the villages stay together, and the households are connected, what are those ghost clans?"

When the young village chief heard this, his expression darkened, and he said, "Your Excellency may have just come here, or you have grown up in the castle of Lord Wensha, and you may not have heard of the history of our small villages and the stories passed down by word of mouth." ”

One of Lu Jingzhi's biggest likes in his life is reading books, and the other is listening to stories. At this time, when I heard the young village chief say that there was a story passed down by word of mouth, he was naturally overjoyed and hurriedly said: "I haven't heard of it, please tell it slowly." ”

The young village chief looked up at the sky, although it was cloudy, he could still see that it was still early, so he pulled Lu Jingzhi to sit down, and said: "My lord doesn't know, we Han people have come to this ghost world since more than a thousand years ago, opened up the territory, multiplied, where is it like now, let people ...... No, it's at the mercy of the ghosts, and they are left to bully. ”

Human beings are the spirit of all things, and they are the most capable of survival everywhere. Maybe one or two people will be trapped in extreme conditions and struggle with life and death, but once there are a certain number of people, it will stimulate great creativity. Where it is often difficult for a few to conquer, with the efforts of the many, it can be conquered. As early as 2,000 years ago, the Loulan people established a large city-state in the desert, and the Eskimos conquered the Arctic Ocean. The environment of the ghost world is far better than those extreme areas, although there is very little direct sunlight and clouds all day long, there are also animals and plants growing.

When Wuhu was in China, there were dozens of surnames and hundreds of people who avoided chaos and took root here. After that, it took a hundred years to cut down trees and open up wasteland, and it didn't take a hundred years to become extremely prosperous. Even after opening up a few roads, there were forts along the way. Some people were very quiet and wanted to go back to see if the peace had been restored to their homeland. However, there is a way to come, but there is no way to return, and those who go to find the way will not be able to come back nine times out of ten. So everyone can thrive here with peace of mind, and no longer want to go back. At that time, the ghost world was not called the ghost world, it was called the new Han land, and the people who moved here also called themselves the new Han people.

But the good times didn't last long, and a group of tattered knights came to the land of the New Han Dynasty. Their horses were rotten, their armor was missing, and even their weapons were mutilated. But these knights are extremely powerful, and they are not afraid of swords, even if they chop off a hand or a foot, they are still extremely lethal. The New Han people fought in Tiantouzhai, and dozens of dead and wounded killed and wounded before those knights retreated. Who would have thought that at night, the new Han people who died in battle during the day were all alive, but with those knights, they broke through the gate of the village inside and out, and almost slaughtered the people in the village. In the village, only a few escaped by luck came to the nearest fortress and talked about it. It just so happened that the owner of a fortress had recently lost his son, and when he heard of the resurrection of the dead, he secretly rejoiced in his heart, so he wanted to communicate with these knights. Later, it is needless to say that it was the end of a dead man who was resurrected at night, and almost the castle was killed. Fortunately, someone in the fort was alert, woke up a few people to the left and left, and escaped overnight.

The battle between the New Han and the foreign knights began at the stinky lake, which is today's Sulphur Lake. In the battle of Stinky Lake, the New Han people won a miserable victory. Countless zombies were decapitated, limbs chopped off, and impaled, then gathered together and burned. The New Han Chinese were also killed and wounded. In order to prevent the dead from becoming new zombies, the New Han people also pulled out their own corpses and burned them, leaving only a jar of ashes for hanging. The true identities of these foreign knights are revealed in this battle, they are originally long-dead human corpses, awakened through mysterious methods, and assigned to fight the living. According to the custom of the Han family, this kind of person who has come back from the dead is called a living ghost, and the power against them is called the ghost clan.

In the following hundred years, there were constantly foreign ghost clans raiding the territory of the New Han people, and the New Han people also continued to fight back, and some people searched the ghost clan's nest outside, trying to get rid of them. Among them was a very powerful man, who was worshipped as a general by the king of the Xinhan Dynasty at that time, named Zhao Qifeng. This Zhao Qifeng is a fifth-generation Xinhan person, and the Xinhan soil is like a place like home for those of them who were born and raised in Si, and they have to be defended with their lives. After the new Han people experienced land reclamation and resistance to the enemy, they reached their heyday in the fifth generation. Industry, agriculture, and commerce have all developed unprecedentedly, and the population has grown from a few hundred to more than 170,000.

It was in this state that General Zhao Qifeng led a 20,000-strong expeditionary team across the stinky lake and explored in the direction of the ghost clan's attack. Along the way, General Zhao's cavalry slew countless zombies that were mining for sulfur ore, and once they were cut down or overwhelmed, the zombies were immediately dismembered by the accompanying light infantry, and then burned in a centralized manner. Although the zombies are strong and fast, General Zhao is prepared to attack unprepared, and uses horse speed instead of human speed, and the impact power is far better than that of ordinary zombies. The light infantry that followed was a lasso and a long pole, not giving the zombies a chance to fight back at all.

With the advantage of tactics and weapons, this army and horses fought to the other side of the stinky lake, and broke several sulfur mines in a row. Shocked by the ghosts, they hurriedly sent knights, infantry and a large number of zombie auxiliaries from several castles to form a coalition to meet the battle. However, General Zhao adopted the tactic of preemptive strikes and individual breakthroughs, dividing several ghost armies that had not completely converged, concentrating the main forces to attack one place, completely defeating and burning to ashes, and then attacking the other. Within a few days, the Ghost Clan coalition collapsed, and the New Han Chinese army controlled the land hundreds of miles from the Liangjie Mountain to the Stinky Lake.

At this moment, among the knights of the ghost clan, a high-ranking knight suddenly evolved, named Vancyti. Fan Saiti not only has the ability to think, but also is good at scheming, against the soldiers and horses of General Zhao who came to attack, he took a strong wall and cleared the wilderness to confront, and led a small ghost cavalry, bypassing the stinky lake, and sneaking up on the New Han Land from behind. Seeing that there was an enemy attack, the king of the new Han Dynasty hurriedly ordered General Zhao to return to help. General Zhao was conquering the castles of the ghost clan one by one, and was suddenly ordered to return to the army, although he was unwilling to give up the work he had done, but he had no choice but to obey his fate - after all, the military horses along the way still had to count on the new Han Dynasty to provide food, grass, clothing, and weapons.

General Zhao tried his best to return with his army and horses, but when he arrived at Stinky Lake, he encountered an ambush again. However, the New Han army won great victories one after another, and the military was in full swing, although it was in a hurry to return to the defense, but by virtue of the tactics and excellent armaments, the two armies of the ghost clan who were in ambush were killed in one go, and the two armies of the ghost clan wailed again and again, and as soon as the ghost clan was stabbed down by the cavalry, the infantry immediately stepped forward to ignite the fire. A burning ghost clan ran and screamed, breaking away the second line of the ghost clan's ambush line, and was so angry that the high-ranking knight Versati rushed to kill on horseback, wanting to fight General Zhao immediately. How could General Zhao use his flesh and blood to fight against the immortal body, with a wave of his spear, the flag gate closed, and the formation closed. The Vantisai cavalry was everywhere, and the formation flags were rolled, revealing a forest of eight spears. This Zhangbagun forest formation is six layers before and after the selection of sergeants, all holding Zhangba's spears, reaching the ground with the tail of the spear, holding the spear forward and upward, no need to force, no need to run, an order will form a formation, can prevent the cavalry impact. If the spear is level, it can also prevent the infantry from charging into the formation, and General Zhao used this formation to break the enemy in the past, and he has won a lot.

Van Saiti is a high-level knight, and he is also a cavalryman, and he is afraid that he has the power of ten thousand jun under the impact of momentum, and when he saw the gun forest, he knew that he could not close the momentum, and he was inevitably pierced by the gun forest. If it is an ordinary knight, or a cavalry of the yang world, it must be difficult to be spared, but Vercetti, as a high-ranking knight, still has a life-saving trick. I saw that he lowered the cavalry spear, and then quickly flattened, and a low sound wave was drawn on the tip of the spear, and everyone who was hit by this sound wave fell from the spear in his hand, and rolled to the ground and vomited blood. Seeing that Van Sai Tisha had drawn a bloody path in the gun forest, the ghosts hurriedly gathered their formation and attacked in the middle. General Zhao saw that the center of the gun forest formation was broken through by enemy cavalry, and hurriedly ordered the second team to step forward to intercept it. The second team is also a gun formation, but the spears they hold are far less long than the first team, about eight feet long, and they can reach the ground to form a gun formation, or they can charge with guns to kill the enemy. At this time, Van Saiti no longer had the strength to swing his spear to attack the enemy, and when he saw that he was about to be surrounded, suddenly the deputy commander of the regiment around him risked his life and led the cavalry of his own guards to rush up and stop the second team of the New Han Army. The captain of the second team of the New Han Army saw that there were enemy cavalry coming, and ordered the first three rows to form a gun formation, the last three rows to throw spears, and the others to go around and continue to intercept. If his plan succeeds, Van Sethi will never have a chance to return to the oni territory again.

If you want to know how the battle will be, let's see the next breakdown.
