Cao Cao called me to rob a tomb

Chapter 818 The Undeserved Blessing (4000)

"Brothers, open the door to meet the enemy!"

Although the woman still didn't explain what was going on until now, but from the various details of the woman, Wu Liang already had a rough guess in his heart, knowing that what happened tonight might not be good.

And no matter what happened tonight, I'm afraid it wasn't because of this woman.

Otherwise, the actions of these villagers could not be so quick and unified, as if they had been discussed before. Even if there is no order and prohibition like the army, it is obviously organized.

"?!"

Hearing Wu Liang's order, the woman felt a tinge of surprise in her despair.

Because this is definitely not the reaction that ordinary people should have. Ordinary people are afraid that they will panic when they encounter this situation. It is a normal reaction to guard the gate. How can they deliberately order people to open the gate to meet the enemy?

After all, there are more than a hundred families in this village, and there are hundreds of people including young and old.

On Wu Liang's side, although most of them are young and middle-aged, the total number is only more than [-]. Facing the siege of so many people, he must be powerless...

When thinking about it like this.

"Dangdang!"

Two Tuan army soldiers rushed forward and opened the two not very strong courtyard doors open vigorously.

And the rest of the soldiers of the Tuan army had some things in their hands that women had never seen before. If they had something more like a weapon on them, it seemed to be the wooden handle shovel pinned behind them. Even so, the shape of the shovel is rare.

"Don't tell them to run away!"

"Quick! Anyone who wants to eat meat hurry up!"

"Wang Wang... Wang Wang..."

"..."

The fire outside the courtyard door was getting closer and closer, and the shouts of people mixed with the barking of dogs, making this small village that should have been peaceful and quiet extraordinarily noisy.

In the brighter and brighter flames, a crowd of villagers holding torches, sticks and farm tools had already surrounded the courtyard where Wu Liang was located.

Wu Liang could only see the villagers facing the courtyard gate.

Among them are men and women, old and young, and the youngest looks to be only seven or eight years old. That should be an innocent age, but at this moment, Wu Liang can't see any child on the faces of these children. There should be some innocence. On the contrary, under the reflection of the fire, their faces looked more ferocious, more excited, and more eager to try than those adults.

Human nature is evil.

The younger the child, the stronger the desire to destroy, the more cruel the methods, and the more there is nothing that cannot be done in the heart. Only educated people are willing to put on shackles, abide by the rules, and become a "good person" in a narrow sense.

On the contrary, it is the cruelest piranha.

"Cheer up and tell me what happened. This is related to how I will deal with them next, and also related to whether I am willing to help you. Long story short."

The villagers outside were still gathering, and Wu Liang picked up the collapsed woman in a leisurely manner.

Perhaps he had gained a sense of security from Wu Liang's calm and steady state. After being helped up, the woman finally stopped paralyzing, but still looked at the villagers outside the yard in horror, and said in a trembling voice: "One... A year ago, Junzi and I wanted to go to Qingzhou to seek refuge with relatives and friends. We stayed here at night. That night, 23 members of our family, except me, were all slaughtered by them as livestock, and all our property was robbed by them...Although I survived , but it would be better to die, that child was born by their force..."

"Jingjing, you take her into the house to rest first."

Hearing this, Wu Liang had fully understood the whole story, and then turned around and said to Bai Jingjing.

"Ah."

Bai Jingjing responded, and stepped forward to support her.

Wu Liang patted Yang Wanli's shoulder again, and said, "Don't act in a hurry, wait for me to negotiate with them before making a decision."

It was a matter of human life, so naturally Wu Liang would not only listen to what the family said, but also had to see how the defendant reacted, so as to verify the authenticity of the matter.

But judging from the current situation, [-]% of what the woman said is true.

at last.

When the villagers outside were almost assembled, the old man I met in the afternoon slowly came out from behind the crowd, stood outside the door and looked at Wu Liang in the courtyard, and said with a smile: "Young master, don't blame us, we are not here. For nothing else, just because a daughter-in-law suffering from madness was lost in the village, and someone saw her walk into this courtyard, I wonder if you have seen her before?"

"Yes, she is in the room at the moment, and she seems to be quite frightened."

Wu Liang admitted generously, "Just now I was still wondering where the woman came from, but I didn't find out clearly after asking for a long time. Since she is a daughter-in-law in the village, I will send her out."

"If this is the case, things may not be so simple."

Hearing this, the old man's gaze turned slightly colder, and he continued, "It's late at night, but the daughter-in-law of our village appeared in the son's house. I'm afraid it's not nice to say it, and the old man can't explain it to the villagers."

This is clearly finding fault for nothing, just as clumsy as an excuse for an invading army to lose a soldier.

"I'm afraid the old man misunderstood, if anyone saw that woman came to my place, they should also know that she has only spent a cup of tea since she entered the door. How can there be any unpleasant things in such a short time? "

Wu Liang said.

"That's hard to say."

The old man said relentlessly.

Hearing the words, Wu Liang felt a little regretful that he said these words in an unnecessary manner, as if he had personally handed over the words to the other party to mock him.

But up to this point, Wu Liang had already figured it out, but he still asked without changing his face: "What does the old man want?"

"It's not what the old man wants, but we kindly taught you to stay overnight, but your actions have failed our trust. We have to wonder what kind of mind you have when you come to our village."

The old man also smiled and said, "The matter has come to this, the young master can only be arrested without a fight, teach us to search the belongings of the young master to prove his innocence, otherwise it may be difficult to win people's trust."

"that's right!"

"Know people, know faces, but don't know your heart, if you are willing to arrest without a fight, we will be able to trust you just now!"

"Don't force us to use force!"

"Wang Wang... Wang Wang..."

The hundreds of villagers outside the courtyard obviously had a tacit understanding with the old man. Hearing what he said, they immediately scolded him loudly to build up his momentum and put pressure on Wu Liang.

Also at this time.

Hearing the sound of "Boom", I saw the woman who was helped into the house by Bai Jingjing not long ago suddenly pushed the door open and rushed out, and repeatedly advised Wu Liang: "My lord, you must not be arrested without a fight. Because of their deceit, once the young master is tied up by them, they will immediately put on a different face, and then the young master will be so incompetent!"

"My lord, you shouldn't believe this crazy woman's nonsense, right?"

The old man didn't take the woman seriously at all, he still looked at Wu Liang and said with a smile.

"Old sir, what if I don't want to accept your arrangement?"

Wu Liang asked lightly.

"Young Master, if you insist on toasting and not eating fine wine, then don't blame us for not showing respect... Ugh!"

Before the old man finished speaking, he suddenly let out a muffled groan, and unconsciously raised his hand to cover his chest.

Those villagers still don't understand what happened.

After a while, seeing that the old man was unable to stand still and was about to fall to the ground, a young man beside him called out "Father" and hurriedly supported him, only to find that a feather arrow had been inserted into the old man's chest at some point, and the feather The arrow was so powerful that it not only shot into the old man's chest, but also directly pierced him, so that only a small section of arrow feather could be seen on the chest.

"This?!"

Until now, the villagers still haven't realized what happened, and their faces are full of surprise. After all, they have never experienced any military training, nor have they seen such a powerful weapon.

And the other side.

"You kid, you're quite accurate in shooting. You haven't been practicing privately lately, have you?"

Yu Ji patted Zhuge Liang's shoulder appreciatively.

On the other hand, Zhuge Liang worked hard on the small three-bow bed crossbow that Boss Cao had seen before as a display model, and said quite complacently: "I often go out with my talented brother, and I have to master some means of self-defense. When it comes to something, I will hold back talented brother."

at the same time.

"kill!"

With Wu Liang's order, twenty soldiers of the Tuan army rushed out of the courtyard led by Dian Wei and Yang Wanli.

Dian Wei took the lead, and with a pair of halberds, he turned into a humanoid meat grinder and charged into the enemy's formation like a berserker. For a moment, pieces of meat and limbs were flying around, and only those who hadn't reacted could be heard. The ghosts and wolves of the villagers uttered.

On the other hand, Yang Wanli and the soldiers of the Tauren Army held the Warring States Repeating Crossbows and followed closely behind in a rushing formation that could respond to each other. If you look down from above, the tight formation of the Tauren Army soldiers is like a wheat harvesting machine at this moment. Everywhere they passed, the villagers fell down in pieces like ripe wheat.

Even Yang Wanli specially designed a sharper formation for the soldiers because of the repeated crossbows in the Warring States Period.

At this moment, the soldiers of the Tuan army were divided into two rows, front and rear. The front row shot while marching. When the iron arrows in the arrow box were used up, the soldiers in the back row immediately switched positions with them, and the soldiers in the front row could come to the back row to fill the arrow box. , so that the cycle can ensure that there is no shooting space, so as to give the enemy a chance to counterattack.

It has to be said that Yang Wanli did use some brains. This method of warfare is very similar to the method of flintlock warfare in the 89s and the [-]th century.

It's just that there are no flintlock guns in this era, and there are even unique crossbows, so only the Tuo people shoot others, and there will never be a situation where others shoot at them.

And amidst the howling ghosts and howling wolves.

"!"

The woman's eyes, which were still covered with mist, were already wide open, and even her mouth was slightly opened, and her smudged face was covered with indescribable shock.

The development of the matter has completely exceeded her cognition.

The moment the villagers surrounded the yard, she had already resigned herself to her fate. Those villagers were by no means easy to get along with, and during the year she was trapped here, similar things had happened several times. Although there are some people who will fight hard and cause a small number of casualties to those villagers, but under the siege of the villagers, there will be no good end in the end.

But what did she see now?
What she saw was a completely one-sided killing. Those villagers had no room to resist in front of Wu Liang and his group. Ashes of weeds.

"what--!"

"Forgive, forgive, forgive, villain... Ugh!"

"Run away! Run away, get out of the way, don't stand in Nai Weng's way, Nai Weng doesn't want to die!"

"Father—mother—help me!"

"..."

The villagers were in a mess at the moment, some were dead, some were injured, some were running away, some were even so frightened that their legs went limp, they could only kneel on the ground and cry for their father and mother.

Although there are hundreds of them, they are still a group of rabble with no combat experience. It may be okay to coax and kill the passing caravans, but once they meet a well-trained regular army who has seen blood, no matter how many people there are Fish on a chopping board.

However, the Huren Army is not only a regular army, but also the elite of the regular army.

Under the leadership of Wu Liang, they killed the famous generals Ma Chao and Pang De, confronted the defenders of Shanshan Kingdom head-on, went to the most dangerous place in the world, and experienced the worst environment... Just a while ago, they also Outnumbered and numerous enemies defeated Zhang Xiu's army.

This is because the Huan army did not resort to more powerful "innuendo" at all, and a situation of unilateral massacre has already formed.

This time, these villagers really kicked the iron plate.

No, it is the iron plate in the iron plate, the steel plate!

At this moment, these villagers finally felt the despair of the victims. In this village far away from the town, even if they shouted, no one would hear them, let alone come to rescue them.

……

Before dawn, the massacre had already come to an end.

While recycling the arrows, the Tuan army piled up the corpses of the villagers.

Wu Liang is a fastidious person, and he knew that throwing these corpses here might cause a plague, so he decided to pile them up and set fire to them.

In fact, this time the Turen army did not kill them all.

After all, a small group of villagers ran into the nearby mountains and forests under the cover of night. The Tuan army didn't know much about the terrain when they first arrived, so they didn't rush to pursue them.

"My lord, there are still some old people who can't move and infants in some houses. How should these people be dealt with?"

Yang Wanli came to Wu Liang to report.

This is indeed a problem.

These immobile old men and infants obviously cannot participate in these things, especially those infants who don't know anything.

"Didn't dozens of people run away?"

After pondering for a while, Wu Liang said, "Let them fend for themselves. If the dozens of people who have run away will return to support them after we leave, then their lives should not die. If not... since they were born in In such a family, the food and clothing must have been stained with human blood, and that means they have enjoyed undeserved blessings, and it is their destiny to suffer undeserved hardships, and they cannot blame others."
