Chapter 698: Bloody trick

South of Yazhou, Lihua Town.

This is a small town located by the Tianshui River. The resident population is

about five or six thousand. Because it is located in a remote place in Qiguo

and the terrain is relatively flat, it is rarely affected by famine bandits.

In addition, the neighbors of Yazhou are Youju and Gyeongju. Caravans

traveling between the two places by Tianshui River often settle in towns along

the river. The residents here have a good life and have a lot of extra money

at home.

But this peaceful day changed with the defeat of the Ten States Allied Forces.

Passersby bring news from time to time about which towns in Gyeongju and Yoju

have been looted.

In the outskirts of the small town, there are gradually more robbers who make

a living by robbing houses.

The residents of the town spontaneously formed a training team to make up for

the no longer vacancy of the Yazhou Army. Because of the small size of the

place, the Privy Council did not send alchemists to stay here. With the

support of the local Li Yin and the squires, this regiment was trained in a

good manner. Not only did all the members be equipped with spears and clubs,

but they also frightened back several times. Refugees and robbers near the

town.

On this day, the sentry captured another group of people from the north.

He quickly rang the bronze bell beside him.

Accompanied by the crisp bell sound, the town’s training team quickly gathered

together.

"It's a defeated soldier!"

"Move Juma here!"

There is no city wall in the town, only a circle of half-person high fences.

According to the training content, everyone puts a long spear on the railing,

which becomes a natural line of defense. Coupled with the fortifications to

prevent the horses from charging, and the crossbowmen climbing high behind,

this formation is enough to discourage most enemies.

But this time, the other party did not back down because of their reaction.

The enemy speeded up and launched a charge!

"My lord, they are here!"

"Don't panic, the other party has only a hundred people!" Li Yin yelled, "Hold

the gun flat! Get ready to draw the bow-let it go!"

The arrows were all shot out, but the results were very few. The general who

rushed to the head swung his sword a few times, and then all the arrows shot

at him were picked up.

"Kill!" This person yelled, and the horse ran into the gun formation. While

the horses were splashing blood, he jumped up from the horse's back, jumped

over the fence, and landed in the training team!

Everyone rushed forward, but he was flying with a pair of iron hand wheels.

No matter who it is, no one can hold a face-to-face in front of this person,

not only that, but the more he kills, the more he rises, and he smashes into

the crowd while laughing wildly.

Ordinary people have never seen such a scene. Faced with the flying limbs, the

courage that had not been much disappeared suddenly. In addition, the rest of

the enemies had rushed to the fence, and the front line that had finally been

established fell apart in an instant.

Li Yin, commanded on the high platform, was also cut open by the defeated

general with a sword.

He lay down in the mud, trembling and pointing at each other, "You...you are

not the Yazhou defeated army..."

This person's power and reaction are all better than ordinary people. Li Yin

has seen some worlds somehow, knowing that only the alchemist of the Privy

Council can do this.

No matter how miserably the army is defeated, the alchemist cannot accompany

the defeated army to fall together-they are inherently superior.

"Of course I am not." The other party smiled. His accent is extremely heavy,

and he is not at all like a Yazhou native.

"Then... why do you want to..."

"If that's not the case, what can I do to reward my subordinates? I can't rely

on the little bit of payment, right?" He cleaved with a sword, cut off Li

Yin's neck cleanly, and sealed the second half of the sentence in his mouth. ,

And then shouted to the team, "This town is yours! Go get your rewards!"

"Here!" The soldiers in defeated uniforms laughed and cut down the soldiers

and civilians who had no time to escape, and followed the backs of other

defeated people into the streets.

Soon, there were screams and crying everywhere in Lihua Town.

"Master Qiao, this tattered armor is really useful." The adjutant rode a horse

and approached the general. "Those people thought we were the Yazhou Army when

they died."

"Who let them lose to Jinxia City? This bad debt is destined to be counted on

them." Qiao Zhenggang laughed freely, "If it weren't for the transfer to

Shangyuan City soon, I really want to be here. Stay longer."

"Shangyuan also has the benefits of Shangyuan. I heard that there are

particularly many beautiful women there, and the hospitality and enthusiasm

are much richer than here."

"Women? Huh... How can hunting come easily." Qiao Zhenggang said

disapprovingly. As the guardian of Xu's third rank, he has been stationed in

remote places for a long time, and his biggest hobby is to kill people in

different ways. The more blood he soaks in his hands, the stronger his ability

seems to be. Every time he encounters a bottleneck in his cultivation, he will

find ways to taste the smell.

It's a pity that there are still people staring at him, and the number of

robbers and death row prisoners is always limited, and there is no way to

indulge in it. Now that he has been dispatched to Qiguoya Prefecture, he

finally has a catharsis.

That’s right, this is theoretically under the rule of the Seven Stars and is

managed by the Privy Council, but in fact, who cares about the leaders of a

little-known place? During the war, it is only normal for people in one

township and town to be slaughtered. Even if someone finds it out at the time,

it is also the work of rioting soldiers and bandits.

While chasing the defeated Yazhou army in exchange for military merit, while

pretending to be the Yazhou army looting nearby towns and villages, this kind

of life made Qiao Zhenggang feel rare satisfaction.

This move also received eager support from his subordinates.

Most of these people are from the Xu country. After they came to a foreign

land that has nothing to do with them~www.mtlnovel.com~, all the psychological

burdens disappeared. As long as you cooperate with the leader to rush and

kill, you can fill your pockets, and no one can refuse this kind of good

thing.

Knowing that the new general is about to take over the defense of Yazhou Port,

Qiao Zhenggang has accelerated the pace of enjoyment.

If it weren't for those big cities where there were alchemists stationed, it

would be easy to be spotted. He even wanted to find a serious city and

experience the thrill of slaughtering the city with a knife.

"Master Qiao, report from Yazhou Port!" This is a messenger rushing towards

the town on a horse, "Unusual anomalies were found in the southeast waters,

and it is suspected that the enemy is approaching!"

"Enemy?" Qiao Zhenggang raised his eyebrows, "Where is our navy general?"

"Both Master Xu and Master Luo stood still. They claimed that the Jiaotou boat

was not good at naval battles. They probably wanted to wait for the other side

to get closer before making any plans."

"Huh, bad naval battles? I think I want to save my wings. Well, I'll go over."

Qiao Zhenggang turned to the adjutant and ordered, "I'll give you half a day.

Bring these people back to the camp before night tonight. I didn't grab

enough. There is still a chance in the future, but if anyone dares to violate

the military order, I will take his head tonight!"

"Subordinates take orders!"

Qiao Zheng just rode on the horses that others gave up and rushed towards

Yazhou Port.

This place was only an hour and a half away from the army’s landing position.

Shortly after noon, he returned to the army station. Ascending to the sentry

tower, Qiao Zheng just took the observation glass in the soldier's hand and

looked at the sea line to the south.

Sure enough, on the blue sea, he found a gray-green "hill".
