Chapter 22: Burning Wuhuan! Do you want to be taken prisoner or not?
If the Han people are good at using stratagem in war, it will be much easier for foreign races to fight.
Except for the Jurchens in the late Ming Dynasty, most of the alien invasions of the Central Plains were concentrated on superior forces and left.
Even the Jurchens learned some simple routines only after they collected the traitors.
therefore
Adjutant General Chakel, who was chasing all the way, never thought that he would be ambushed.
Until......
"Shoot the arrows!"
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
"Whew!"
With Li Xiuning's order, it suddenly rained on both sides of the official road.
"Boom~!"
Before the Wuhuan cavalry had time to react. The oil that was almost soaked in the soil layer was ignited and burst open in an instant.
"W-How?!"
Looking at the fire that suddenly ignited, as well as the dense Han army on both sides of the official road, the deputy general of the Chakr tribe was directly stupid
What's the situation?
Aren't they chasing down the Han soldiers who are frantically fleeing for their lives?
Why, how did you get surrounded in the blink of an eye?
Where did the Han army come from so many people?
It's not scientific!
Despite the frenzy in his heart, Adjutant General Chuckle reacted quickly.
"Rush!"
"Don't stop, just rush out in one go!"
"Hurry!"
Amid the roars of the lieutenant general and some of the small leaders, the Wuhuan cavalry galloped as if they had found their target.
however
Before they could rush out of the fire area, a series of sounds of breaking the air hit them.
Only for a moment,
The fastest Wuhuan cavalry that rushed just now fell in a large area.
"Woo Woo ......"
"Loaded arrows!"
"Go on!"
The crossbowmen, who had completed the first round of shooting, hurried back to their wounds.
And the crossbowmen who had already been prepared in the back continued to fill the vacancy.
thereupon
The Wuhuan cavalry, who charged hard, felt as if they were in a rain of arrows, and they never stopped for a moment.
"Damn~!"
"What the hell is going on up ahead? Why stop! ”
The adjutant general, who was blocked in the middle of the road, screamed urgently,
But the Wuhuan cavalry, who had already been frightened, did not dare to continue to charge.
The rain of arrows is coming, and it almost doesn't stop.
Who can bear this?
Whoever rushes dies!
And the endless Han cavalry behind the crossbowmen was the last straw that crushed the camel.
No one dared or wanted to rush forward.
Adjutant General Chakel, who received the report, directly ordered:
"The former army has become the rear army, and the whole army has retreated!"
"Quick!"
"If we don't rush out, we'll all die here!"
Smelling the smell of meat in the air, Adjutant Chuckle's voice was full of tears.
He's scared!
He's really scared!
Whoever likes to be the leader of this tribe, he has no idea at all now anyway.
pity
Even under the conditions of commanding a company during World War II, it was difficult to exit this kind of canyon once it entered.
Not to mention in the late Han Dynasty?
The front army was stuck in place and did not know what to do, and the rear army did not dare to retreat because they could not receive orders.
Plus the heavy infantry that looked like a wall of steel......
"Up the hill!"
"Hurry up the hill, you can walk one by one!"
Adjutant Chuckle's eyes had turned blood-red.
He's in such a hurry!
If the leader is not right, it is not right, but his life must be saved!
And if you want to save your life,
The warriors of the Chakr tribe could not afford to lose too much.
Otherwise, it will be a death to go back!
therefore
When he couldn't get in touch, he took his guards and some people who could be contacted, and directly abandoned his horse and went up the mountain.
Even the rockets on the mountain are still covering them.
After all
The archer's specialty is archery, and his hand-to-hand combat ability is about zero.
And what about them?
Herdsmen who have been running around in the bitter cold land all year round are fine if they don't take a sword and fight two.
But what they never imagined was that there would be such a bad person in the world.
The moment they saw the heavily armored cavalry rushing down from the mountain, the Wuhuan cavalry completely collapsed.
"Jingle ......"
Under the leadership of Adjutant General Chakr, the Wuhuan cavalry dropped their swords and fell to their knees with limp bodies.
"Surrender?"
"Do we need prisoners?"
Looking at the Wuhuan alien race kneeling down the mountain, a sneer of disdain appeared on the corner of Qin Feng's mouth.
Captive?
He doesn't need to ......
"Huh?"
"Why not?"
Listening to Qin Feng's muttering beside him, Li Xiuning frowned slightly and said:
"My lord, whether it is to build roads or reclaim them, it takes a lot of coolies!"
"Instead of just killing it, you might as well take it back and be a coolie."
"As a coolie?"
Listening to Li Xiuning's advice, Qin Feng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Do we big men lack coolies? So many victims grabbed a handful of them at will. ”
"Although it is a little hard and tiring, at least it will not sell your sons and daughters!"
"This ......"
Li Xiuning opened his mouth and looked at Qin Feng with a strange look in his eyes.
"Lord, have you ever thought about ......?"
"If the money saved by these coolies is used for soup kitchen, more people will survive?"
"After all, those coolies are doing their jobs, and you can't bear to do it with your own people?"
“……”
As Li Xiuning's words fell, Qin Feng also fell silent.
Oh, yes!
If you want to feed those people, you only need to give porridge every day to feed a lot.
But why would you want them to do hard work?
Even if you can't support them in vain, if you use work for relief, Zhuo County, which is about to usher in reform, will need a lot of people.
Why let them do the most dangerous work in exchange for a meager ration?
Word of mouth is very important!
Although killing these people will reveal more Soldier Summoning Cards.
But what's the use?
There's still a lot of space now, do you still dare to summon it?
Is there a fart use if there are soldiers without food?
Even with these soldiers, he can crush all the way.
What about the ground that can be knocked down?
Who cares?
Maybe the front foot just left, and the back foot that is the family will make a comeback.
It's useless if you have soldiers!
Don't you see that a bald head in later generations has a well-equipped army of millions, and he is still being forced to leave the country?
With this in mind,
Qin Feng had no choice but to give up the urge to kill the light, gritted his teeth and nodded:
"Since this is the case, spare them first, and let them use the rest of their lives to atone for the sins of the people of the Han Dynasty!"
………………
The war began abruptly and ended quickly.
As Qin Feng made the decision to take prisoners, all the people who were blocking the front and back withdrew to both sides.
Even the archers in ambush on the hill stood on the side of the road to maintain order.
nevertheless
There are still some stupid people who can't see the situation clearly and want to continue to jump.
"Go!"
"Tell them!"
Glancing at the more than twenty Wuhuan cavalrymen who fell in a pool of blood, Qin Feng said expressionlessly:
"If there are any more people who dare to rush into battle, then don't blame Ben for not taking prisoners, just pull them all out and bury them alive!"
"Whoa!"
Zhang Fei, who had long been upset, didn't wait for others to speak, and ran to announce it after agreeing first.
Now it's okay,
Those who were still a little ready to move were instantly targeted by their companions beside them.
How so?
Regardless of race, infighting is a compulsory subject.
