"Understood. ”

"Zhao Yuan, since we have arrived here, then, life and death are no longer important, everything, the overall situation is the most important. ”

"Yes, I understand" Zhao Yuan nodded heavily, he naturally understood that Yang Cheng was afraid that he would be cowardly.

By this time, the people had already packed up the spoils of war and obtained more than thirty spin slave horses and some yogurt and other food.

Under the cover of night, the crowd followed the established route.

Because there are more than 30 horses, the soldiers are much bolder, after all, with horses, even if they encounter cavalry, they have the strength to fight, and they don't have to sit still.

After walking for another two hours, we arrived at a market.

The bazaar is made up of countless tents that stretch for miles.

After a brief discussion, the men on horseback set fire, and the others waited for the rabbits to shoot the fleeing ones.

During the discussion, Zhao Yuan remained silent from beginning to end, and Yang Cheng seemed to be aware of Zhao Yuan's psychological disorder and did not ask for his opinion.

After arranging their respective positions, Yang Cheng lit the torch, held the knife in one hand, gave the signal, and began to set fire along the narrow streets of the market town, and soon, the monstrous flames tore through the heavy black curtain, under the blood-like fire, the disheveled herdsmen cried and fled for their lives, and the crossbowmen who lurked around began to carry out a merciless slaughter, constantly shooting deadly arrows.

In less than half an hour, the market town was razed to the ground, all the supplies were burned, some cattle, horses and livestock were slaughtered on the spot, and the air was filled with a strong smell of blood.

As for the number of deaths, it is impossible to estimate, because many were burned in their sleep, more than 200 people were shot, and very few escaped.

The slaughter began.

Under the leadership of Yang Cheng, one hundred radical Ying students rushed all the way along the island, and in just one night, they razed more than a dozen or seven market towns and more than twenty family tribes, and wherever they passed, there were no prisoners or booty, only burning and killing.

Burn all the supplies and kill all the livestock.

Because there were too many animals to kill, they simply drove thousands of animals to the grasslands and left them to fend for themselves.

Yang Cheng did not deliberately kill the herdsmen, but in the midst of the burning, resistance was inevitable, and in the face of the wolf-like empire, the herdsmen had no room for resistance.

These 100 people are hundreds of thousands of people.

In the past, the herdsmen were not so vulnerable, but today, they can only be slaughtered, because the young and strong men of the tribe and some martial arts masters have gone to the front, leaving behind the old, weak, sick and disabled.

Of course, there are still a few masters who occasionally stay in the tribe, but in the face of this imperial radical army deep into the hinterland, they are like moths to a fire, and they are killing themselves.

......

At noon the next day, everyone arrived in a deserted place before they had a chance to breathe.

This chapter is a madman hand-hitting)

In this day and night of killing, there were many people whose martial arts level had actually been promoted, and their strength had greatly improved.

The most incredible thing is that after counting the number of people, a hundred people are still a hundred, and there is not a single loss, although there are a few wounded, they are all slightly injured, and they have no effect on the battle and the march, and a slight bandage is enough.

Zhao Yuan didn't have much joy, in his heart, the Buddha was pressed by a heavy stone, which made him breathless.

Zhao Yuan sat alone on a boulder, keeping a distance from everyone, looking out of place.

"Zhao Yuan. Yang Cheng walked over and handed the leather water bladder in his hand to Zhao Yuan.

"Thank you. Zhao Yuan took a big sip of water, and the cold water was injected into his body, which made Zhao Yuan sober up a lot.

"One autumn three years ago, when I was a recruit, I remember for the rest of my life that it was a sweltering autumn and the prairie was like a furnace. I was patrolling the grassland with a group of comrades-in-arms, because of the pursuit of a group of horse thieves, my comrades-in-arms and I were separated from the patrol, my comrades-in-arms and I were tired and thirsty on the grassland, finally, I met a herdsman, the men in the herdsman's family were out, just a woman, and a little girl about thirteen years old......"

Yang Cheng paused, his eyes full of grief and indignation.

"The woman was very welcoming, and took her daughter to entertain us with sumptuous food, because it was two women, and they were kind and kind, we relaxed our vigilance, and just as we were drinking, suddenly, two women took advantage of our lack of spare arrows to shoot us, and the thirteen-year-old girl's archery skills were extremely exciting, and the sharp arrow pierced the back of my comrade's neck...... I will always remember that scene...... The comrades-in-arms were still scooping food in their hands...... He looked at me incredulously, and the bloody arrows pierced through his Adam's apple......"

“...... The woman's archery skills were very poor, probably because she had been working hard for a long time and didn't have time to practice archery, and her arrow missed her head and landed on my shoulder......"

Yang Cheng untied his armor, revealing a scar on his shoulder, which was extremely terrifying, like a disgusting worm lying on his shoulder.

"I killed the two women, burned down the herdsman's house, and returned to Blackwater City with a cold corpse. After that, even if I die of thirst and starvation, I will not beg for food and drink in the house of the Thorn slave herdsman......"

"Zhao Yuan, the Thorn Slave Tribe is a specific nation, a three-in-one armed form, there are only soldiers in the land of Thorn Slave, but no people, and the land of Thorn Slave belongs to all the people. In the beginning, we did not commit any crimes against the stabbing slave herdsmen, and because of this, the Great Qin Empire suffered many casualties, and there are countless examples like mine in the grassland. Later, as long as it was determined that the herdsmen were a threat to our army, they would immediately kill the whole door, and under this kind of deterrence, fewer and fewer herdsmen dared to assassinate and ambush the border guards......"

"I see. ”

Suddenly, Zhao Yuan felt a sense of relief.

Zhao Yuan does not kill innocents indiscriminately, but he is never merciful to the enemy.

"Hehe, it's good to understand, in fact, I was the same as you at first, but after seeing my comrade-in-arms lying in a pool of blood, I completely put away my compassion. The Assassin Slave Nation is a terrible nation, they are more martial than the people of the Great Qin Empire, many children's toys are bows and crossbows, swords, for such a people, the only way is to make them afraid. As long as they make mistakes, they will be severely punished and made to pay the price of blood, only in this way will they remember for a long time and dare not act rashly"

"As I have said, personal negligence can lead to the danger of the whole army, and individual efforts will also contribute to the success of the whole, rest assured, I will not hold everyone back. Zhao Yuan smiled faintly.

"I believe in you"

Looking at Yang Cheng's indifferent smile, Yang Chengsheng felt an extremely wonderful feeling. This young man, who is much younger than himself, in addition to having an indescribable majesty in his gestures, also has a calm and unhurried bearing.

"I reckon that the army of thorn slaves outside Blackwater City has received the news that they may send a team of men and horses to hunt us down, so we need to speed up and lead them by the nose. Zhao Yuan glanced at the blue sky and white clouds.

"Yes, we now have hundreds of good horses, we can run all the way through the grassland non-stop, the soldiers sent by the army of assassins, because they are preparing for war, are all heavily armoured, and they are not as fast as us, and they can't have a few horses per person, so we have an absolute advantage in mobility. ”

"It's still early, let's take a break, the brothers are tired and need to replenish a little energy. ”
