Wu Qiutian did not choose to let the soldiers out immediately, but investigated the situation alone.

Among the four city gates, except for the north gate, where the number of people is relatively small, there are many people at the other city gates, and the east gate, which has the most, has gathered nearly 10 million troops.

He didn't expect that there were so many people in the Hou Mansion army after losing 15 million, but he estimated that these people were all forcibly conscripted, and their combat effectiveness was not as strong as the previous troops.

Rao is like this, he still doesn't dare to act rashly.

There are too many people, and the army of eight million is thrown into tens of millions of soldiers, and it may be surrounded by soldiers at other city gates at any time, which is no different from a cart of sand thrown into the desert, and it may be wiped out by a sandstorm at any time.

It is relatively safe for a person to watch from the periphery, and he can guarantee that he will be in the midst of the army unscathed, which his soldiers cannot.

As far as the eye can see, there are rare soldiers on the walls of the Gundam, and the sparse Mo Yuwei doesn't seem to have a very high fighting spirit, on the other hand, the Hou Mansion army under the city is like a stallion that has eaten an aphrodisiac, and from time to time there will be a team of 1,000 people carrying a cloud ladder to make a feint. After throwing down hundreds of corpses, it was a good record to be able to have a few more cracks in the city wall.

Sneaking over, Wu Qiutian, who had already changed into the former military uniform of Pingyang City from a distance, changed his appearance, just like a Houfu soldier besieging Tianlong City, mixed in the crowd, looking very weak.

A middle-aged man beside him noticed Wu Qiutian's deliberate trembling, grinned, and showed a mouthful of big white teeth: "Young man, it's okay, Mo Yuwei can't shrink now, nothing will happen, don't be afraid." ”

Wu Qiutian nodded gratefully, his voice still trembling: "I... I know, but... ”

The smile on the middle-aged man's dark face was even greater, and his rough skin was like a cracked old bark, and the range of movement was too large, which made blood beads gush out of his chapped lips: "This damn war won't last long, hundreds of years of war will take longer than the war back then, and no one can afford to consume it." ”

Wu Qiutian said timidly: "Uncle, your mouth is bleeding." ”

The middle-aged man's solemn eyes looked at Wu Qiutian, who was completely like a rookie, and sighed slightly in his heart: This damn war, pity these children who don't understand anything, end it early!

"Uncle, uncle?" Wu Qiutian had a pure face, waking up the middle-aged man from his trance.

The middle-aged man came back to his senses and sighed: "Oh, it's okay, it's good to get used to it, this is an old problem, the wind is strong here, and it hurts like a knife." Pay attention to yourself! People who have never experienced a battle formation can easily die in this environment, and their lives are their own, and no one can guarantee your safety. ”

Wu Qiutian nodded, this middle-aged man may just be one of the ordinary soldiers, he has experienced a lot of murder, and after doing a lot, he will become accustomed to it. But many recruits don't know what it's like to kill, and if it weren't for this war, maybe they wouldn't have felt the horror of killing for the rest of their lives.

Many recruits vomit after the first killing, losing the minimum and basic dignity of a man.

The prelude to the war unfolded again, Wu Qiutian was grabbed by a pair of powerful big hands, and it was their turn to attack the thousand-man team.

A thousand people went up, which seemed to be huge, but before they could get close to the city wall, nearly two hundred people were shot by the archers at the head of the city, and the rest of the people reluctantly put the ladder on the city wall, and the horn of the Hou Mansion had already sounded.

When Wu Qiutian and the remaining hundreds of people returned to the main formation with exhaustion, the wave that was not afraid of death was dragged to the north city gate, and the wave that was afraid of death continued to stay here and was incorporated into another team of 1,000 people.

Tianao is training soldiers with the lives of soldiers, soldiers like Wu Qiutian who deliberately dodge and dare not charge forward, and the final result is only death.

That's how the thousand-man team came to be, so many troops, and those who can really survive to the end have a good achievement.

Panting heavily, he peeked through the crowd at the veterans who were in charge of guarding the recruits, and the expressions on each of these people's faces were extremely solemn, and no one knew who would live.

In front of everyone, it was not easy to knock those guards unconscious, nor to escape, and it seemed a little unrealistic to put down eight million troops in this place, he was thinking about how to escape, and a voice sounded in his ears: "Young man, yes, you can survive a charge." ”

It was none other than the black-faced middle-aged man who spoke to him before.

The other party has a simple smile on his face, and he knows at a glance that this is an honest person, but he has the cunning of ordinary people on the battlefield, although this cunning is likely to make him lose his life in the end, but this cunning can make him die a little later than others.

The witch thief said awkwardly: "Uncle, have you ever thought about escaping?"

The uncle looked at Wu Qiutian like a monster and said: "Child, don't think about running away, there are so many soldiers around here, even I don't know who is a recruit and who is a veteran, and it wasn't that no one wanted to escape before, but basically everyone was killed by their own people in the end." Since he was arrested and became a strong man, let's stay honestly!"

Wu Qiutian's expression was gloomy: "I just got married, and there is a wife at home who has only slept for one night, and I really don't want to die in this kind of place." ”

The middle-aged man sighed: "Who said no, my son has just given birth, if it weren't for the fact that my son was spared this military disaster, I wouldn't have worn armor when I was a lot older." This is still someone I know in the Praetorian Guard, otherwise, my son would not be able to escape the catastrophe. ”

"Hasn't Lord Hou always loved the people like a son, why did he suddenly choose war?" Wu Qiutian asked.

The middle-aged man said: "Hou Ye loves the people like a son? I don't know who you heard this say, this Great Xia Empire, if anyone's selfishness can be compared to the pride of the sky, then it is really a miracle." Everything is just that Mu Suiyu, the former chief steward of the Hou Mansion, whitewashed the peace, in fact, Tianao is a selfish ghost. ”

He kept his voice down, trying not to let the people around him hear the conversation between the two.

Wu Qiutian shook his head and said no more.

One by one, the thousand-man team was tirelessly dispatched, and each time the lucky thousand-man team died no more than one or two hundred people, and the unlucky thousand-man team could leave a hundred people, which was very good.

However, none of the generals above showed any mercy, and in their eyes, these soldiers could be killed at any time like dogs, and they didn't even need a place to bury their bones.

In the troubled world, life is as cheap as a dog, Wu Qiutian knows it well, and within three days, his thousand-man team actually attacked seven times in a row.

Seven times, he went through a team of seven thousand, and even the middle-aged man who had a good impression of him at first was wounded, and a feathered arrow pierced through his shoulder socket, making him unable to move half of his body.

Of the seven attacks, only Wu Qiutian was not injured, which attracted the attention of several guards, and one of them, a small colonel with a goatee, walked up to him and touched him all over him.

After seeing the small world in his hand, the mustache showed a greedy look, and tried hard to drag away the small world that turned into a ring, but he couldn't take off the ring after trying hard for a long time, so he pulled out his waist knife in anger and aimed it at Wu Qiutian's finger and chopped it.

He felt that such cannon fodder would die sooner or later, and now it was just a matter of chopping off a finger, and it was no big deal.

Wu Qiutian pulled his fingers out violently and stared at the goatee.

The goatee was annoyed and angry: "Boy, you dare to insult Shangguan!"

Wu Qiutian snorted coldly: "If I don't give you my ancestral ring, you will say that I insulted Shangguan, could it be that Lord Hou spent so much money to support you just so that you could not scavenge the people's fat and people's cream!"

The loud voice naturally alarmed the others, and the other soldiers on guard also noticed the unusual situation here, and the uncle who had been simply bandaged on his shoulder came over and pulled the corner of Wu Qiutian's clothes, signaling him not to conflict with these soldiers, but Wu Qiutian turned a deaf ear.

The uncle pulled twice to no avail, and he no longer insisted, young people are young people after all, and it is a good thing to have young people's stubbornness, but on the battlefield, this kind of stubbornness should not be.

The longevity is always the kind of person who is afraid of death, and some who are not afraid of death are often the first to become meat sauce on the battlefield.

In order to come over, one of the other soldiers, a young man who looked very thin, asked coldly, "What's the matter?"

Wu Qiutian replied neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Back to the general, this general was greedy when he saw that the villain had an ancestral ring on his body, and he couldn't take it off, so he pulled out his knife and wanted to cut off his humble finger." ”

The young man glanced at the goatee that was already in a cold sweat on his forehead: "It's just a ring, you can solve it yourself if you make such a big noise." ”

Listening to his tone, it seems that he is not very willing to care about this kind of thing.

Wu Qiutian was anxious and angry, he didn't expect the army of the Hou Mansion to have such an attitude. Of course, this is because he doesn't know the usefulness of these people, basically all of them have been arrested, and there are few who really want to be soldiers, and the Hou Mansion has no time to train them, and the best way is to use the current method to train soldiers.

In the eyes of those regular soldiers, they are going to die sooner or later, so just a ring is really nothing.

The goatee man looked at Wu Qiutian coldly, as if he was looking at a dead man.

Wu Qiutian grabbed his weapon and stabbed at the goatee without saying a word, the goatee didn't expect Wu Qiutian to be so fast, and he didn't even have a chance to defend when he was caught off guard, so he was directly stabbed through the throat by Wu Qiutian.

Seeing this, the cold young man immediately turned around, pulled out the long sword on his waist, and attacked Wu Qiutian without saying a word: "If you want to rebel, look for death!"
