Chapter 021 Inhuman Slaughter
If the rebel soldiers in Daming Mansion were to say how high they were, it was purely to praise them. To put it bluntly, they joined the rebel soldiers organized by Lu Xiangsheng, just for money.
They were farmers who were tiring to work hard for a year and could barely get enough water. If they were converted into silver, it would be more than one tael. Now, as long as they killed one Jiannu, it would be five taels of silver, which would be equivalent to their income of about three years.
In this case, they were not afraid of Jiannu. In fact, they didn't know about Jiannu's cruelty, and even if they knew, they wouldn't care.
People in troubled times have a cheap life. They are farmers or tenants. They are born poor and can change their destiny. What are they afraid of?
Including Ma Chenggong, Liu Yongshun, Li Shuanzhu and Zhao Hu, green light appeared in his eyes, and he was a little impatient.
"Set off!"
The soldiers of the Dayi Army, who had been waiting for a long time, set up five columns, drove out the temporary camps one after another, and walked forward in a mighty manner.
Lu Xiangsheng rode on the horse and nodded slowly.
Although the Daming Prefecture Rebel Army was poorly equipped and had serious training, at least the morale of the army was available. Lu Xiangsheng held a Park Knife in his hand, just like the Qinglong Yanyue Knife used by Guan Yue in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Of course, this Park Knife is just an ordinary Park Knife and does not have the carving pattern of the Qinglong Pillar.
To put it simply, the Pu Dao did not have such an object during the Three Kingdoms period. The real Qinglong Yanyue Sword was a weapon that only appeared in the Tang Dynasty. Guan Yu's Yanyue Sword was originally called "Yunchao", and was first seen in "The Collection of the General Master of Wu Jing·Guang Yu".
Doudian Village, Liangxiang County, is located on the official road in southern Beijing. Because the merchants from south to north rest here, this village is very prosperous. The villagers with more than 2,000 people are even larger than many towns during this period.
On the afternoon of the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from the quiet Doudian Village.
As a village that was developed because of business, the villagers did not feel abnormal. They cooked what they should do and worked. A group of seven or eight-year-old children were holding snowballs on the threshing ground at the entrance of the village, divided into two factions, playing snowballs and playing games.
These children did not notice the difference between this group of knights and the past merchants. These knights had about seventy or eighty horses. The knights were wearing red armor and the armor was stained with purple-black blood.
As the distance got closer, the knights were swinging a thin pig tail behind their heads. A woman holding a rice bowl and calling her baby home for dinner suddenly discovered that the group of knights had drawn their bows and arrows at the group of children on the threshing ground.
"No……"
The woman yelled heart-wrenchingly.
However, the group of knights did not hesitate, their fingers slightly loosened, their bowstrings trembled, and their arrows flew towards the group of children playing with the sound of breaking through the air.
"Swish swish swish swish..."
The children did not realize the danger was coming. The sharp arrows almost penetrated their young bodies, and blood splattered. Such injuries were beyond help.
Seeing the child falling down constantly, the woman didn't care about her job and rushed towards her child. The mother's nature to protect the child made her forget her fear. She only had the child who was already scared. She wanted to snatch her child back from Jiannu's butcher knife!
The woman had just hugged her child and had no time to run. A sharp spear puffed through the great mother with a puff. The spear continued to spread and then penetrated the child's young body.
The war horses rushed over, and the knight on the horse was dragging a spear, stalking the corpses of the mother and son. The ground rubbed rapidly with the corpses, and soon the corpse became unrecognizable, with a broken stomach and a tragic sight.
It was not until this time that the villagers reacted and let out a heart-wrenching scream: "The Tartars are here, run, run..."
These Jiannu Knights laughed wildly, as if they were hunting normally, raising their bows and arrows and shooting their prey.
"Swish swish swish swish..."
The sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air is continuous. After each string sounds, a villager will fall down upon the string.
The scared villagers only regretted that their parents had less legs and ran like crazy. However, they could not escape the horse anyway, so they fell down one by one, either being shot to death by sharp arrows or being cut to death by sabers. Anyway, the cavalry rushed to death, all the casualties were injured! What was most desperate was that more than a dozen Jiannu cavalry appeared at the intersection at the end of the village. Their crazy laughter was made. Yes, they were laughing and chopping the villagers over or shooting them to death.
In their opinion, this is just a competition, it is a hunting, a game they like to play!
A child who fell to the ground didn't even have time to get up. A horse's hoof as big as a bowl stepped over the child. A young child was trampled and blood was splattered, and his stomach was broken and his intestines flowed. It was a terrible sight.
A brave villager held a hoe and tried to fight Jiannu. The saber was unsheathed. The villagers' big heads soared into the sky, and blood sprayed out like a fountain.
A white-haired old man wanted to use his body to block the door. His sharp spear pierced the door panel without delay under the inertia of the accelerated war horse, nailing the old man to the door panel together, and blood flowed...
The war horses galloped past, and several heads flew out along the blade. The blood flowers bloomed at an astonishing speed and withered at an astonishing speed, proclaiming the end of life.
Heads rolled on the ground, flying up with blood columns...
The inhumane massacre began in an instant, without any reason and no grudges...
Jiannu wanted to kill all the people in this village and steal all the property in this village.
Doudian Village, which was once prosperous, was now trapped in a sea of fire. Hundreds of corpses were lying on the road at the entrance of the village. From time to time, women's crying, screams, and the crazy laughter of Jiannu came from the village.
Houses were lit, smoke rolled and fires soared into the sky.
The vanguard of the Daming Mansion's rebel army was stunned when he saw this scene.
"Quickly, report to Lord Lu!"
Soon after, Lu Xiangsheng received news that Jiannu slaughtered the village.
Lu Xiangsheng rode his horse to the forefront and said angrily: "This group of beasts!"
Liu Mingyu looked at the sharp arrow shot through his body, his head was cut off by a sabre, the burning house, the splattering blood, shrill screams, heart-wrenching crying, and terrified begging...
He clenched the Possus sword in his hand: "Sir, please fight with me!"
Is it tolerable?
Just die. At this moment, Liu Mingyu's blood is burning.
"Arrange the array, spearmen are in front, swords and shields are second, and the chariots are in the procession and rush forward!"
