Chapter 131: The Sacrifice of Life

The atmosphere in Huixi Village was already high, as if a big war was imminent, Xiang Zongyan pulled out the sword at his waist and shouted loudly: "Sacrifice!" ā€

This familiar order made the barbarians suddenly rejoice. But after a few bustles, the three thousand barbarians soon consciously dispersed to the sides, and opened a wide road in the middle, and the guards, who had just received the instructions of the leader, had already returned, and were angrily pushing the four barbarian generals who were bound to death.

Mother Yong doubted that these barbarian generals who were crushed by Xili Lake in their sleep were of course not from the Xiang clan, and they were all the "supervisors" or "oaths" that Tian Hongyou had left in Huixi Village before.

At present, the 20,000 Tang army is outside the ancient road, Tian Hongyou has already withdrawn all the troops to Xizhou City, and these four unlucky Tian generals don't know their own situation in their hearts, they are just the abandoned sons of the tribe. What's more, there are all the Xiang soldiers around him, and the duties of this prison army may have to be reversed.

But these Tian generals, although they are terrified, but there is still a trace of luck, according to their fantasies, the current lord of the three states is Tian Hongyou, as long as they do not take the initiative to provoke, Xiang Zongyan should not be killed. On the day when the Tang army came to attack, they would be able to take the opportunity to escape after the battle......

But he never expected that in less than a day, Xiang Zongyan would make a move. These Tian generals, who were tied into meat dumplings, were blindfolded at this time, and were reluctantly pushed to the open space in front of the handsome tent.

The surroundings were full of fierce Xiang sergeants with swords in their hands, and two bonfires had been lit on the left and right sides, no more, no less, a total of exactly four places, and dozens of brute soldiers were screaming around the bonfire with their teeth and claws, dancing strange and jubilant dances.

I don't know if it was sweat or urine, the four Tian generals suddenly got soaked, and when the breeze blew, they instantly emitted an unpleasant smell, and their faces were full of horror.

As the Dongxi barbarians, they knew at a glance that this seemingly strange ritual was the pre-war sacrifice that various tribes were accustomed to. This tradition has been passed down for many years, and before each major war, the chief general of the army will select a few prisoners of war or criminals, and sacrifice flesh and earth to heaven and earth, and sacrifice to Wuxi with bones, praying for the success of the war, and letting the barbarians be contaminated with blood to strengthen their hearts.

The barbarians have always believed in the theory of reincarnation, believing that death is only the beginning of rebirth, and after preaching it for hundreds of years, it has led to the barbarians who have been selected to join the army all boast that they are not afraid of life and death, but from the actual situation, they are not afraid of death and are not afraid of death, the focus is on how to die, and if they really want to experience the extreme pain of peeling flesh and bones, no one is happy.

Seeing the four Tian generals struggling and crying, Xiang Zongyan was naturally unmoved, waved coldly and ordered the mouths of the four to be plugged, and then summoned Xiang Ming, who had been waiting for a long time, and briefly instructed a few words.

Xiang Ming, who knew the inside story, together with several barbarian generals, naturally understood that today's sacrifice was actually meaningless, this time it was a surrender and not a war, killing these Tian generals, in addition to letting the soldiers take advantage of the situation to vent, it was just to completely cut off the possibility of reconciliation with the Tian family, and to show the leader's determination.

And Xiang Zongyan obviously didn't want to waste more time on the so-called sacrifice, and after a while, Xiang Ming, who got the order, commanded the soldiers to kick down the four sacrifice objects one by one, and then the knife and axe hand held a heavy axe, shouted loudly, and directly slashed the head of the person.

Omitting the lengthy section of flesh and bone splitting, these four unlucky insects naturally got a good time, and they went to their "reincarnation". And the barbarians were not surprised, after all, since Xiang Zongyan, the leader of the Sinicization, came to the throne, many barbarian ancient rites have been simplified or abolished.

As the four heads fell to the ground, blood gushed out, and the remnants of the corpses fell violently. Then the drums beat loudly, the trumpets sounded, and the brutes felt the thick blood floating in the air, and in an instant their eyes lit up and their blood boiled, and they began to howl loudly again.

People get up and down, and it's impossible to turn back. Xiang Zongyan glanced at him steadily, then turned to look at the gloom of the sky, and sighed softly. And Xiang Ming was not idle, and began to lead several generals, and quickly dispersed the soldiers into several teams in the name of sincerity, and another team was patiently brought outside the gate of the village......

Two hours later, Liu Jiangsheng and Zhu Kuangcong, two generals of the Tang Army, led 5,000 soldiers and horses to successfully take over Huixi Village under the military orders of the commander Li Yuan.

At first, as Xiang Zongyan expected, the three thousand unarmed Xiang soldiers were already restless when they lined up at the gate of the village, until they saw the arrival of the Tang army's soldiers and horses, and saw that the leader Xiang Zongyan was actually tied up on the spot.

Tonight, Liu Jiangsheng was as calm as ever, but he waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to send Xiang Zongyan back to the camp first, and then led his own soldiers to gallop in, and according to Xiang Zongyan's previous guidance, he went straight to the camp to inspect the seriously injured and unawakened brother Luo Erhu.

As for the barbarians outside the walled gate, they were naturally handed over to Zhu Kuangcong, Liu Jiangsheng's deputy general and Zhu Kuangcong, who had suffered a "bitter meal" during the day.

In the end, with the previous lesson, Zhu Kuangcong, who has always been reckless, has already behaved a lot, and naturally does not dare to be frivolous, but in any case, the prejudice and anger against the barbarians in his heart have not been dissipated, and he twisted his eyebrows a little and thought about it carefully, as if the marshal did not order how to deal with these barbarians, but only said that he would decide later, and suddenly inexplicably had the intention of killing.

But looking at Liu Jiangsheng who galloped into the village, Zhu Kuangcong still came back to his senses in time, although the marshal did not give the order, but the marshal's brother can be in front of him, if these barbarians are really a few less, and they blatantly overstep their authority, it is estimated that no one can save it.

As soon as the faint anger in his heart was tightened, Zhu Kuangcong wanted to order these barbarians to be driven to a dirt slope outside the village, and take care of them for the time being, and wait for the marshal to come to make plans, but when he saw a few howls suddenly sounded in front of the battle, six or seven Tang army soldiers were accidentally snatched of their blades, and they did not dare to act rashly because they did not get a military order, and they were forced to retreat again and again, and the Tang troops around them also shouted nervously.

Zhu Kuang frowned from his brows, and finally had a person to vent at this time, he turned over and dismounted without hesitation, pulled out a big knife and strode closer, stared at him with round eyes and reprimanded: "You few waste!" Even the blade can be taken away and become a bird soldier? ā€

Although he was scolded, Zhu Kuangcong personally dismounted and arrived, which somewhat calmed the dazed mood of the Tang soldiers around him, and correspondingly, the barbarians looked at this tall figure that was not inferior to Xiang Ming, and their faces were also panicked, and the few barbarians who had just won the weapons in their hands were also ready to move.

Zhu Kuang spat on the ground from the ground, and said angrily to several Tang soldiers beside him: "What? The barbarians have done it, but you are like a coward, you don't dare to do it? ā€

Seeing that this notoriously reckless general was dragging a big knife and rushing angrily, a local general nearby secretly said that it was not good, swallowed his saliva and hurriedly ran to him, and said in a low voice: "Du Envoy, the handsome man didn't give an order to deal with it!" ......ā€

"Of course we have to listen to the big handsome! But don't you see? The barbarian snatched all the knives, is it possible that we have to stretch out our necks and cut them down?! ā€

The general suddenly didn't know why, and subconsciously replied: "That can't be designated!" If the barbarians do it, we will have to adapt to it......"

Without waiting for the general to finish, Zhu Kuang showed a weird smile from his big grin: "Yes! It's called improvisation! ā€

"Both! I haven't seen blood now, and what the last general said is improvised, but it's—"

And the situation was too late to contain after all, Zhu Kuangcong had already picked up his beard, raised his blade and scolded angrily: "You barbarians, do you know who we are? The things raised by the son of a bitch, even your grandfather's knife dare to grab? Kind, a knife at your grandfather?! ā€
