Chapter 886: The People of the Widow
"Boom!"
In a wilderness near Gaonu County in the upper county, the sound of horses' hooves was everywhere, and the dust was flying.
On the horizon, a large group of Yueshi people holding scimitars and wearing big felt hats appeared on tall horses.
A bloodthirsty smile tugged at the corners of their mouths.
"Enemy attack! It's the Yueshi people! Come on! β
"Run!"
The herdsmen who were still grazing were slaughtered by the Yueshi people.
Wails echoed through the sky, and blood soaked the weeds.
Frightened cows, sheep, and horses were all in a mess and running around.
Just when the Yueshi people were acting recklessly and killing the herdsmen, a touch of crimson color suddenly appeared on the other side of the southern wilderness.
A large number of Wu army's iron cavalry swept in like a fiery red wave.
"Kill!"
"Cloth Cone Formation!"
The head general is Gongzi Fan.
With a wave of his hand, Gongzi Fan conveyed the order, and the iron cavalry that followed changed a formation.
The cone formation is a battle formation with a forward like a cone, and it is a formation that forcibly assaults.
Non-brave generals and elite assault units cannot be used.
"Poof!"
"Huh!"
When the iron cavalry of the Wu army rushed to the front in a conical formation, the short-handed combat represented the fate of this Yueshi cavalry of no less than hundreds of people.
One head after another was cut off, blood splattered everywhere.
The Yue's people brandished the scimitars and spears in their hands, trying to inflict damage on the iron cavalry of the Wu army, but they couldn't even cut through the armor on their bodies......
The weapons of the Saiwaihu people are generally shoddy.
And Wu Jun's weapons and armor are very sophisticated.
How can this be fought?
After a while, the Yueshi people, who had tasted the might, hurriedly turned their horses' heads and prepared to escape.
But, how could Wu Jun tolerate the Yue clan people running away from under their noses?
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Hugh Hugh!"
Due to the great results achieved by Wu's Hufu cavalry archery, the combat power of the cavalry, especially in cavalry archery, has been significantly improved.
No, the Yue's people have tasted great!
The iron cavalry of the Wu army rode on horseback, bent their bows and shot arrows, shooting and killing one after another of the Yue people who fled.
In their eyes, these Yueshi people have become live targets!
It didn't take long for this group of Yue's cavalry to be slaughtered, leaving not a single living mouth.
"Drive!"
Qingji had already led a large army to a herdsman's camp.
The people who lived here were originally the people of Quyan, but now they all belong to the people under the rule of the Wu State.
The sudden attack of the Yue people caught them off guard, and many people were killed.
The huge camp was a mess, a bloody scene, and many old and weak women and children had died tragically under the butcher's knife of the Yue people.
In the eyes of the people on the grassland, this is a matter of course.
The vendetta between Rong Di is nothing more than that.
"Phewβ"
Qingji grabbed the reins of the war horse under his crotch, looked around condescendingly, looked at the surviving Quyan herdsmen, and frowned.
"Widow, it's King Wu Qingji, your king!"
Qingji waved his hand and said loudly: "You are already safe!" β
"The blood feud you are waiting for, the widow will avenge you!"
"Those who dare to invade the boundaries of our Great Wu and kill the people of Great Wu will be punished even if they are far away!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! β
The soldiers of the Wu army who followed behind Qingji all shouted loudly with their blood.
Qingji's declaration undoubtedly moved the hearts of these herdsmen who had just lost their relatives.
Now that they have become the subjects of the state of Wu, it is the responsibility of Qingji to protect their safety without discrimination!
"Newspaperβ"
At this moment, a scout flying horse came to report and said, "Great King, the main force of the Yue Clan is in Gaonu City!" β
"How many centaurs?"
"There should be no less than 10,000 people!"
More than 10,000 people?
Qingji did not panic at all.
Although the enemy is outnumbered, but in a frontal battle, the Yue people are not the opponents of the Wu army.
Qingji's subordinates are all elite divisions, and it is not a problem to fight ten at a time.
β¦β¦
When Qingji led the army to gallop to Gaonu City, he saw that the city gate had been closed.
Above the head of the city, there are people of the Yueshi who have deep sunken eye sockets, high nose bridges, and similar facial characteristics to the Cypriots.
The people of the Yue clan seemed to know the strength of the Wu army, so they didn't dare to come out to fight.
Qing Ji pondered, the Yue people should be planning to fish in troubled waters, and felt that Wu Jun's reaction speed was not so fast, so he herded horses south.
"Don't come here!"
At the head of the city, a Yueshi man who seemed to be proficient in Wu language, spoke a lame language, and translated for the Yueshi leader around him.
"We went south this time, just to bring some livestock and rations back!"
"Please make it easy for you to get out of the way! Otherwise, these Wu people and the Quyan people will all die! β
As soon as the words fell, dozens of Li Shu who were pressed appeared on the head of the city, including the elderly, the weak, women and children.
Judging from their clothing, there are Li Shu of Wu State and herdsmen of Quyan......
Hostages?
As if to remind Wu Jun that he had a hostage in his hand, the Yue clan led by him killed seven or eight innocent Li Shu with a wave of his hand.
"Hateful!"
The generals who followed Qingji's side, such as Gongzi Fan, Sun Di, and Xu Menchao, all gritted their teeth with hatred when they saw this scene, and they couldn't rush forward immediately and dismantle these cruel Yue Clan.
And Qingji's face was still very calm.
At this time, the Yueshi people at the head of the city continued to speak.
"See? If you don't give way, not only these people, but about one or two thousand people in the city, all of whom will die! β
γ
All the generals of the Wu army couldn't help but set their eyes on Qingji.
Qing Ji said: "Mighty and unyielding." The widow will never be subjected to such coercion, and the people of Wu will never be subjected to such coercion. β
"No!"
The generals are ready to do a big job.
It's just that in the absence of siege equipment, their monks had nothing to do with the Yueshi people in the city for a while.
"Gather all the earth-shattering thunderbolts and blast open the city gates!"
"No!"
In view of this, Qingji can only choose to use a simple and crude way.
The people of the Central Plains countries may have heard of the earth-shaking thunder of Wu State, and they may also have seen the power of the earth-shaking thunder.
When Wu Zixu led the army to attack Anyi City before, he used the earth-shaking thunder.
However, the Hu people outside the Saiwai have definitely never seen the power of the earth-shaking thunder!
"Listen to the people of the Yue clan in the city!"
Qingji drove his horse forward, and when he came to a hundred and twenty paces, basically out of range of the Yue's bow and arrow, he said in a loud voice: "If you lay down your weapons and surrender to the widow, the widow can let you live!" β
"If you are still obsessed and stubbornly resist, after the city is broken, you will definitely die and have no place to be buried!"
Regarding Qingji's statement, the Yue people at the head of the city all looked at each other and laughed wildly.
Although Qingji couldn't understand the words of the Yue people, he definitely knew that they were laughing at themselves.
