I've been reborn, who still wants to be a cowardly little white flower?
Chapter 123 She is the bloodthirsty Hades
When Xie Yunxiao climbed over the city wall, he could no longer see Jiang Yuan and was a little panicked at the time, but through the faint traces on the ground, he could tell which direction Jiang Yuan was heading.
Two more soldiers came up from behind, and the three of them moved carefully towards Jiang Yuan.
After walking a dozen steps, Xie Yunxiao suddenly raised his hand and stopped. There was a person lying on the ground in front of him. From the light of the torch, it could be seen that he was not a soldier of Dayu, but a rebel.
He lay on the ground motionless, with his spear still leaning against the wall.
Xie Yunxiao took three or two steps forward and took a look, and found that he was dead.
"Dead." He said it in a low voice, but he knew in his heart that it was Jiang Yuan who did it.
Without bothering to check how the man died, he waved his hand and continued walking forward.
Another one, the same look, but this time there was no spear, but the man had a large blade on his back.
After seeing three corpses in a row, I moved forward and just happened to see Jiang Yuan's skillful and slightly relaxed movements.
After putting the person on the ground, Jiang Yuan turned around, smiled at Xie Yunxiao who was looking at her, bent down, and continued walking forward.
Going forward, it is the main entrance of the city gate. There are more people standing guard. Unlike before when there was only one person every ten or twenty steps, here there is one person every few steps.
Jiang Yuan stopped in the darkness, waiting for Xie Yunxiao and the others to catch up. The two looked at each other and nodded.
Jiang Yuan was the first to rush out. The moment she was discovered by the thieves, she raised her knife and cut the throat of the person closest to her.
She acted decisively and ruthlessly without any hesitation. It didn't seem like she wanted to join the army. She just wanted to be a devil who recruited people.
At this time, there was a commotion on the city wall. They were discovered. With a shout, all the thieves on the city wall rushed over, and all kinds of weapons were coming towards them.
The dagger was put back into the scabbard, and the long sword was emitting a cold white light under the reflection of the torches and moonlight. Jiang Yuan was like a ghost, ruthlessly harvesting heads.
The city wall was soon covered in blood. Hearing the sound of horse hooves approaching from afar, Xie Yunxiao climbed down the city wall, eliminated the rebels inside, and opened the city gate together with two soldiers.
There were also sounds of horse hooves coming from inside the city towards the city gate, and the two groups of people faced off at the entrance to the city.
Li Shan led the soldiers who were still guarding the place to set up tents and take shifts to rest. By the time Jiang Yuan, Xie Yunxiao and the others had set off, everyone had already quietly stood up.
They were only a hundred steps away from the city gate. When the chaos broke out on the city wall, the soldiers on horseback, who were ready to go, responded with an order and rushed towards the city gate at high speed.
Hearing the noise, they opened the city gate, which was their long-planned plan.
There was just one difference. The original plan was to climb up the city wall, find an opportunity to climb into the city, eliminate the guards inside the city gate first, and then open the city gate when the fight broke out.
In this case, people on the city wall and those who open the doors inside the city wall will face greater risks.
The position where they were on the city wall was a little distance away from the city gate. The speed of simply opening the gate must be faster than the speed of killing their way to the middle of the city wall. Once this happened, the thieves would concentrate their forces to prevent the gate from opening.
The people on the city wall also have to face more enemies, and it is difficult for them to get close to the gate.
But this problem was solved quietly by Jiang Yuan. She killed their way silently and brought them to the location closest to the city gate.
Everyone was caught off guard, and Jiang Yuan's speed was too fast. When the city gate opened, all the people above had been killed.
There were cries of killing in the city. Li Shan led his men into the city and engaged in hand-to-hand combat. Before they could even start fighting, a black shadow fell from the sky. Jiang Yuan flipped down directly from the city wall. Although she was still holding the rope in her hand, she was just flying down.
He used the rope to gain a little strength and kicked a small leader of the rebels who was riding a horse away as he flew down.
The battle to capture the city was over in just one hour with a thousand soldiers.
Xie Yunxiao stepped on the leader's chest and asked, "Where are the soldiers in the city?"
The man said nothing and even spat at Xie Yunxiao.
There were two swishing sounds, followed by the man's painful howls. The tendons of his hands were cut, and his feet were also used. "Will you tell me or not?"
Xie Yunxiao bent down slightly and asked again.
The man couldn't stop shaking in pain, but still didn't speak.
Jiang Yuan was standing behind Xie Yunxiao. Seeing this, he waved his blood-stained sword. Another scream was heard and the tendons of his feet were cut.
Li Shan had already inspected the battlefield at the city gate and captured more than a hundred prisoners.
“General, someone over there said that there is no commander in the city.
They captured this town the day before yesterday and left 700 people to guard it. The rest left after resting."
"How are the troops?"
"fifty thousand."
Xie Yunxiao frowned. Fifty thousand. The garrisons around Dongshan County added up to only ten thousand. The general brought twenty thousand troops from the capital.
I never imagined that this traitor actually had 50,000 soldiers.
The person under Xie Yunxiao's feet roared angrily when he heard Li Shan's words. Xie Yunxiao faced Li Shan and turned his back to the thief under his feet. He flipped his wrist and the roaring person suddenly stopped talking, with blood gushing out of his neck.
"Continue the interrogation." He raised his foot and walked towards the prisoners with Li Shan.
At daybreak, no more rebels appeared, and there should be no one left in the city.
The number of rebels was also counted: more than 400 were killed, more than 100 were captured, and dozens escaped, probably to inform the enemy.
It doesn’t matter. Dongshan County is just ahead. Whether we are tipped off or not, we will meet him eventually.
The brave people poked their heads out from the tightly closed doors and windows, saw soldiers in armor, and then looked at the slain rebels on the ground, and gradually came out of the house.
"Sir, sir, come to save us. People from the imperial court are coming." One person shouted, then two people shouted, and then the voices became louder and louder.
More and more people poured into the streets, kneeling on the ground crying, knelt down to them, and told them about their tragic experiences in the past few days.
After listening to the people's words, Xie Yunxiao waved his hand at Li Shan with a cold face, "Kill them all, leave no one alive."
Jiang Yuan didn't know what the people said, because an old lady saw that her body and face were covered in blood, so she gave her some clean water and asked her to wash up.
Jiang Yuan was wearing black clothes, so it was hard to tell how much blood was on his body, but the bloody smell was enough to prove it.
She had clothes in her bag, which she changed at a nearby shop.
When she came out, she saw the old lady holding two cornmeal buns in her hands and looking around. When she saw Jiang Yuan, she staggered forward and stuffed the buns into her hands, "Hurry up, kid, eat. You look so thin. It's not easy for a girl."
The people learned from the soldiers that they had not had a proper meal for several days, and they all went home to get something to eat.
The hundred captives were dragged outside the city, killed, and burned in a fire.
The soldiers in the town did not even bother to rest and took the various foods given by the people and ate them voraciously.
It is said that the original officials in the town have rebelled, and the only ones left are a few old men from wealthy families who still have some reputation.
Xie Yunxiao explained some things to these old masters. They had to leave and go to Dongshan County. Fortunately, there should be no more rebels appearing later. The city would be temporarily handed over to several respected old masters for management.
