Chapter 333: Ordered by the King to Fight for Thieves
The thief looked at Fan Li, who had been tied up by the five flowers, and then looked at the Wu soldiers who were talking on the school field, with a look of pride and complacency on his face.
"Fan Li, you are dying, you are still so determined, but I really admire it."
The thief sneered and said, "However, no matter what, today next year will be your death!" ”
"Thief, you've rebelled? The king guessed right, he knows the face and doesn't know the heart, the king treats you well, why did you betray Wu and join the enemy? ”
Fan Liyun asked lightly.
"Hahahaha! King Wu treats me well. However, compared to the conditions offered by the Marquis of Qi, these benefits of King Wu are simply insignificant! ”
The thief said hatefully: "Fan Li, today I will take your head and sacrifice the flag." ”
Then, the thief stood at the front of the high platform, looked at the thousands of Wu soldiers on the school ground, raised his arms, and said: "Soldiers, as the so-called good birds choose trees to perch on, and virtuous ministers choose the master to do things!" ”
"King Wu is mean and unkind, and he is not a human king! Now I have contacted the Marquis of Qi, and I am willing to honor the lord of Shangqing, a county in the fief, and a hereditary replacement! ”
"Gou is rich and noble, and there is nothing to forget! I can get this glory and wealth by showing my feet, and naturally I can't forget you brothers who were born and died with you! ”
"Now, follow me to kill Fan Li, burn the grain and baggage of the Wu people, and defect to the Marquis of Qi together!"
"Roar, roar, roar!"
"Defect to Qi Hou! Defect to Qihou! ”
On the school field, the officers and men of the Wu army shouted loudly.
Almost all of them were the old thieves, the thieves who followed the thieves in the Central Plains in the past.
They are no longer satisfied with the status quo!
However, there are also many people who have changed their minds and decided to be new people.
They have been treated well in the country of Wu, and some people have even married wives and had children, how can they be willing to rebel with the thieves?
Moreover, half of the soldiers of the Wu army on the school field are from Wu people, how dare they rebel with the thieves?
That being said, but the thief, as the main general, has a certain prestige.
At this time, if no one comes forward and stands up to fight against the thieves, I am afraid that this civil strife in Wu is inevitable.
"The Reborn Financial Giant"
"Mangmao, behead Fan Li! Sacrifice the flag! Lift! ”
"No!"
With a wave of the smug thief's big hand, the deputy general Mang Mao, who was standing on the side, said "swish", pulled out the long sword at his waist, and looked serious.
"Poof!"
A stream of blood spurted out.
The thief suddenly felt a sharp pain in his abdomen, and unconsciously lowered his head, only to see that a bronze sword had penetrated his body.
It's Mangmao!
"You!"
The thief's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief.
However, Mang Mao no longer gave him a chance to speak, and after pulling out his sword, he made a "poof" sound, and sealed his throat with a sword, causing the thief to fall straight and straight in a pool of blood, and died of anger.
When he died, the thief still looked dumbfounded, obviously unable to believe that such a thing could happen.
The soldiers of the Wu army on the school field also looked frightened and frightened.
Mang Mao directly cut off the thief's head, picked up his bloody head, and shouted: "Kill the thief!" ”
"Rebellion is unforgivable! Ben will be ordered by the king to kill the thief! This time, only the first evil will be punished, and the rest will give up resistance and will not be guilty! ”
Hearing this, the soldiers immediately knelt on the ground in unison, and said in unison: "Ten thousand years of the king!" Long live the king! ”
Mang Mao hurriedly loosened the tie for Fan Li.
"Doctor Fan, I've wronged you."
"It doesn't matter."
Fan Li just smiled and said, "The thief is dead, and the general should take over the position of the thief." ”
The official position of the thief and the old ministry can be replaced, but the lord of the doctor, and the 1,500 households of the food and the city, must not be there.
Mang Mao is also a ruthless person.
Originally, Mang Mao was the confidant of the thief, from a low background, as a slave, and later followed the thief to fight in the north and south, until he entered Wu, he was promoted to the deputy general of the thief, and was trusted by the latter.
It's a pity that the thief never expected that it was this Mang Mao, who was trusted by him, that he had already betrayed him and killed him to ask for merit and reward Qingji!
……
Huaishui line.
The war between the Wu army and the allied forces of the princes was in full swing.
After the defeat on that day, the allied forces of the princes had to retreat to the north bank of Huaishui, build a barrier, and prepare enough arrows to resist the attack of the Wu army on the opposite side.
In order to defeat the alliance of princes earlier, the Wu army then cut down nearby trees and bamboo poles to build rafts to force the Huai River.
The Wu army's offensive was very fast, and even relying on simple bamboo rafts and rafts, it was able to rush to the enemy barrier on the opposite side without fear of death.
And under the cover of trebuchets, the alliance of princes on the opposite side is obviously fighting the trapped beasts.
It was only a matter of time before the Wu army completely crossed the Huaishui.
"Kill!"
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Block them!"
Qi Hou stood on top of the arrow tower and ordered loudly, trying to command the soldiers of the post to resist the powerful offensive of the Wu army.
But, it's just a dying throe.
"Boom!"
"Ahhhh
One after another stone bullets fell from the sky, piercing the sky, like a meteor of heavenly fire, and instantly smashed into the position of the princes' coalition army.
The rampart, which was originally made of simple rammed earth and trees, was instantly crushed, and the soldiers inside were either dead or wounded, and they were all wailing.
The Wu army had hundreds of trebuchets, enough to fire a large number of stone projectiles in an instant, which were used to cover the crossing of the river by their own soldiers.
In this situation of ultra-high mortality, the coalition of princes, who were originally a rabble, could not stop it at all.
"Monarch! Unstoppable! Withdraw! ”
Shangqing Guoxia on the side admonished.
At this moment, there were already many soldiers of the Wu army who relied on bamboo rafts and rafts, braved the rain of arrows, and rushed to the shore without avoiding danger, and joined the soldiers of the princes' coalition army.
"Don't withdraw! Why did the widow withdraw! ”
Qi Hou said angrily: "There are still more than 80,000 combatable soldiers under the command of the widow, why can't you fight?" ”
Qi Hou Pestle is still dreaming of turning defeat into victory.
Hearing this, Guo Xia couldn't help but sigh and said: "Monarch, the Wu army is fierce and invincible. The soldiers and horses of Xu and Chen have retreated, they are overwhelmed, and if this continues, only I will be the only one who will hold their positions here! ”
"What?"
"These snobs!"
Qi Hou couldn't help but look gloomy.
This is really a husband and wife, who are birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes!
It is also conceivable that the armies of the vassal states such as Xu and Chen will be withdrawn.
These improvised coalition officers and soldiers have uneven combat effectiveness and low morale, and it is good to fight a dozen smooth battles, but once it is a tough battle, I am afraid that it will be completely unreliable!
