Zhao Yuan and his party headed south along the Yellow River embankment and headed straight for Lingzhou.

The south of the Fortress, which was originally rich in water and soil, has changed its appearance. The Tatar cavalry have just passed by, and they are all villages where military households live, and there are many signs of fighting the enemy.

However, corpses are everywhere, and there are few living people.

The corpses were covered with groups of crows that flew from nowhere.The once noisy town was left with only the howling cold wind.

The wind and snow got bigger.

Let the blood under the sky be covered in white, but it still cannot cover the atrocities of the Tatars.

The slaughter of the city was not because the Tatars were cruel by nature, but they never refused to show any mercy to the enemy in war.

They galloped across the vast territory on the horses raised by nomads. When any Tatar soldier went out, he would bring three or five replacement horses.When marching in a hurry, they take turns to rest, so that they can travel day and night, and can reach the target far faster than the cavalry of other countries.

Although this method consumes a lot of military rations, horses and grass, in addition to the cattle and sheep they bring as food supplies, they will kill everyone wherever they go and plunder the local supplies.No more worries.

Arrow feathers are the most common weapon left on these corpses, not just black feather arrows this time.In the long years, Jinwu may have sold countless other arrow feathers to the Tatars.

Zhao Yuan was thinking as he flew past these corpses—even the dead had made them with their own hands.

The more we went in the direction of Lingzhou, the more Tatars appeared.

The 200 cavalrymen suffocated the anger of hatred and strangled these single Tatars on the spot.No one had anything more to say.

Commands become concise.

The blood on the weapon has not coagulated.

In order to pass the general order to Yuquan Camp to Xiao Jiang, Zhao Yuan and Xie Taichu decided to avoid the main force of the Tatars and lead them across the Yellow River, preparing to detour to Wuzhong County.

A few boats were found from the Yellow River. When they crossed the Yellow River, the clear water of the Yellow River was stained red with blood.

Countless corpses drifted from upstream, without protective gear.

They are all ordinary people.

Everyone looked at the vague corpses on the boat, but no one spoke.After a long time, I don't know who whimpered and cried out, and everyone started to sob.

330 years.

The first empire in the universe.

It stands like a giant in the fertile land of the east, but one day it is vulnerable to being ravaged and slaughtered by foreigners.

This is an unprecedented humiliation.

It is also a pain that has never been tried before.

There was a tearing pain in everyone's heart, and blood for blood and tooth for tooth could not be healed.

After going ashore, spies reported that the Tatars had flattened the north bank of the Yellow River, and the three castles of Shaogang, Songcheng, and Lijun fell.At the same time, Wu Zhong was being attacked by the cavalry of the Qianhu Battalion demolished by Yexing. The city gate had been broken, and the barbarians had entered the city, and they had started street fighting with our Daduan army.

The women were raped and dragged along with the men to the Yellow River and beheaded.Since arriving in the early hours of the morning, thousands of people have been chopped down.

The corpses flowed down the Yellow River.

Most of the heads were piled on the shore and then burned.

When Zhao Yuan and the others galloped towards Wu Zhong on horseback, they could still catch a glimpse of a huge flame burning, and the burnt smell in the air was disgusting.

Farther away, the Tatars had already set up their camps, densely packed and endless, and the white yurts were like a nightmare in the middle of the night, leaving people with a desperate fear that could not be shaken from the bottom of their bones.

"Are you afraid?" Xie Taichu asked him.

Zhao Yuan took a deep breath, even the air was filled with blood mist.

"Scared." He said.

I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up.

Afraid of delaying the fighter.

Afraid not strong enough to save one more person.

After turning over several hills in front, Wu Zhong appeared in front of his eyes. At this time, the sky was getting dark and the snow had stopped, but the cold wind continued to howl.

The city gate of Wuzhong County was opened wide, and the Tatar army left only a few patrolling sentries.

"The city is already being massacred." Zhiba came to report, "The leader is Minhan Nayan [Note [-]] from the [-]th Battalion of the Yexing Cavalry, called Mandulu."

"We originally only had [-] horses, but when Major General Kan left, he ordered [-] more." A general banner below said, "We traveled all night without any replacement horses, and now we are exhausted. We are no match for the Tatars. We should take the step general The token will go to Lingzhou to dispatch troops."

"Zhu Quanchang, don't you usually call yourself the number one warrior in the barracks? Now you are so cowardly?!" Other general banners in the team scolded him.

"It's not that we are cowardly. There is Minhan Nayan, who brought a cavalry battalion of thousands of households. Those of us are going to die. Our purpose is to go to the Yuquan camp, not to fight with the Tatars here. "The general flag, who was called Zhu Quanchang, was a little unhappy, "You said that I, old Zhu, are cowards, and you are not much better! Major General Tao, what do you think?"

Tao Shaochuan glanced at him, and said: "Now we all listen to the order of the county king. If the county king wants us to kill, we will kill and leave. What do you ask me for?"

Zhu Quanchang hit a soft nail on Tao Shaochuan, was dumb for a while, and asked, "What does the county prince think?"

"Lingzhou can't transfer people." Zhao Yuan said, "We are all strangers. Even if we hold the infantry card, how can we see it clearly in the dark. Today's Tatars are on the other side of the river, and they will not take the risk of opening the city." Door."

"Then, the people in Wuzhong County don't care?" Someone in the crowd yelled.

"No." Zhao Yuan said, "We save."

"But they have a thousand cavalry. We are no match at all."

"There are not so many cavalry." Zhao Yuan interrupted Zhu Quanchang, "After entering the city for street fighting, the cavalry cannot give full play to their advantages, and the rest are all infantry. Right now, our Daduan soldiers do not have the advantage of the Tatars, but in In our Daduan County, they are not familiar with much more. It may not be possible to turn over."

"Now that Wu Zhong is slaughtering the city, if he doesn't leave Wu Zhong, he won't be able to reach Yuquan Camp, and if he can't get to Yuquan Camp, he won't be able to send the infantry general's order to Xiao Jiang! Lingzhou City is broken, Weizhou City is in danger, and Daduan Mountains and Rivers will surrender. We can't do it Such a sinner must join Wu Zhong!" He raised his voice.

"I don't force it. Anyone who is afraid of death can retreat and go home. Whoever wants to go, go with me!"

"Fu Wang's soldiers are not afraid of death!" Zhu Quanchang was the first to shout, "Your Highness is going, we will go with you!"

"What nonsense are you talking about, we are now the army of the county king!" The general banner who scolded Zhu Quanchang before said, "Go together! Go with your highness!"

Some of the crowd replied one after another: "Yes! We are not afraid of death! We will go with you!"

"Come along!"

"Kill the barbarians! Save Wu Zhong!"

With tears in his eyes, Zhao Yuan turned his head to look at Xie Taichu.

"Your Highness wants to save them." Xie Taichu said calmly.

"I can save one person, save one person. I can save several people, several people." Zhao Yuan said, "I don't have the cultivation level that a real person can see the way of heaven, and I'm not strong enough to turn the tide... It's just that I can't stand by and do what I can. "

Xie Taichu looked at him, took out the magic sword from his arms, and pinned it to his waist.

"If a real person doesn't want to take risks, just stand by and watch. This has nothing to do with you." Zhao Yuan said, "I will go with Shaochuan and others."

"No...Your Highness misunderstood." Xie Taichu carried him off the horse, "Your Highness is honorable, let's watch the battle here from afar."

He tugged at the reins of the big black horse, and slowly drew out the Dao Demon Swords.

"I entered Wuzhong together with all the soldiers. We will wipe out the enemies and clear the way for His Royal Highness."
