Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 296 I don’t have time to capture you
Upon seeing this, many members of the Stone Rat Group had expressions of displeasure on their faces.
Only then did they begin to regret it.
I regret that if they had not been intimidated by fear and not blinded by chaos... If the group of people had worked together to break out, it would have been impossible to stop them with the number of people on the opposite side.
——Unfortunately, the premise of these assumptions does not exist.
This is what the enemy calculated accurately.
The result was that those who died, those who fled, those who surrendered...the remaining ones of them were actually captured by the enemy who were outnumbered.
It's a shocking shame...but no matter how angry or regretful it is, it's useless.
They were all disarmed now, with knives on their necks, and it was too late to resist.
Lu Meng took a shackle from his side and looked at the prisoners: "Take off all your shoes."
Some captives recognized that these were shackles commonly worn by slaves - there were many such serfs in Stone Rat Town. They either owed black converters gambling money and sold themselves, or they were simply kidnapped by the Stone Rats. Ordinary villagers and travelers.
Most of the people in the Stone Rat Group wear long boots and cannot wear such shackles.
After hearing the order from the 'Swamp Ninja', they all guessed the other party's purpose, and they couldn't help but feel sad and sad.
Unexpectedly, the labor slaves who were inferior to cattle, horses and livestock that he could usually drive at will would end up being his own fate.
The situation was beyond our control. The prisoners could only sit on the ground, unbuttoning their boots one after another, waiting for the fate of being enslaved.
Some of them also have hopes:
When the large army arrives and breaks through Huangshui Village, I will probably regain my freedom one day. The current frustration and suffering are only temporary.
At least one life was saved.
The rain is falling, pattering, and has a tendency to stop.
Allen's right hand was injured, but he held a knife in his left hand and held two prisoners hostage by himself.
Looking at the obedient prisoners, what he thought of was the three dead villagers. They are both from Huangshui Village and grew up with Allen. He is so familiar with each of them.
As we set off, the determined looks of our companions seemed to still be before us.
These once vivid faces are now buried in the dense forest mud, just like their countless swamp ancestors.
And all this is because of these Stone Rat Group thugs they want to escort back to the village.
When Allen thought of this, the joy of victory in his heart quietly disappeared.
The prisoners all took off their shoes, but Allen saw Lu Meng make a gesture——
That was the command code they had learned, which meant 'get ready'.
be prepared? Allen was stunned for a moment... What preparations were made? Was there an enemy attack?
"I know that the large forces of the Stone Rat Regiment are still coming." Lu Meng faced the gang sitting on the ground: "So... I don't have time to capture you, so don't block the way."
He lowered his shackles.
Seeing this, all the gang members were overjoyed: They are letting us go!
"But it's a pity," Lu Meng continued: "We don't have any extra rations to feed you..."
His voice was plain, but coming out of the mask, it sounded hoarse and dull, adding a touch of coldness.
He waved his hand and ordered: "Kill him."
Allen: "!"
Before the young man could react to this turn of events, he subconsciously swung the knife in his hand.
Blood splattered and heads rolled down.
"No!" A member of the Stone Rat Group cried out in horror.
However, the mercenaries and villagers heard Leader Lu's order and took action one after another. No matter how quick the reaction is, the gangsters can't dodge the swords coming from above and behind them.
There were howls and roars.
"no, do not want……"
After all, the number of the ‘Swamp Ninjas’ was smaller than that of the Stone Rats. Some members of the gang who had survived the execution jumped up and tried to escape.
However, they had already taken off their boots and stepped out, either falling into the mud or being scratched by dead wood and hard rocks.
He couldn't run away at all, and he was quickly killed by the people who caught up with him.
Only then did they know what the enemy's intention was in asking them to take off their shoes.
That leader wanted to kill them from the beginning!
However, if someone were asked to take off their shoes or pants as soon as they arrived, any prisoner would be able to guess the intention, and they would immediately become violent and fight for their lives, causing unnecessary chaos and casualties.
That's why he took out the shackles that slaves often wore.
Just to make people take chances and mislead them to obey...
How sinister this is!
The reason why the members of the Stone Rat Group fell into the trap is that although there are fights between the major factions, they have not yet reached the point of life-and-death struggle. The important thing is to decide the division of interests.
They had already admitted defeat in this encounter.
Whether the other party enslaves them as hostages or uses them as bargaining chips in the transaction, it is a reasonable choice.
What I didn't expect was that the swamp ninja would dare to do this!
They are really going to break up.
In the dense forest, the drizzle gradually stopped, but a layer of fresh human blood was splashed on the dark red soil. The blood stains splashed on the green leaves made them appear greener and more vibrant.
Lu Meng stood with his hands behind his back, his hidden expression as cold as the mask he wore.
He has already stated the reason.
They only defeated the vanguard, and now the real main force of the Stone Rat Regiment is coming here.
In addition, there are still people who survived this battle. If they escape back to the camp, their information will be leaked immediately.
Under such an urgent environment, if it takes time to escort these prisoners back to Huangshui Village, it will be a waste of the hard-won opportunity today.
There is still no shortage of labor in Huangshui Village, and the prisoners cannot be converted into soldiers for the time being.
——Then the only option is to die.
As for the issue of breaking one's skin.
He's not really a swamp ninja...
Also, imagine what if the Stone Rats won?
Even if the swamp ninjas can survive, the traitorous Huangshui villagers will definitely be slaughtered by the Stone Rats who need to establish their prestige as a warning to others.
Such is the struggle in the swamp.
People of the same class can still talk to you about loyalty and kindness, but as cannon fodder chess pieces, you can have as many as you want, but there will be no tenderness.
For example, in the early days of the United Cities, it was said that there was a rule for fighting between city-states.
As long as you are a noble, even if you are defeated and captured, you will not be killed. At most, you will pay a ransom.
This is not an aristocratic spirit.
It's that they are relatives to begin with, and there are constant blood marriages - in today's era, they are even more closely united in the form of countries, and they are inseparable.
"...Mr. Lu, what should we do next!" Allen stood in front of Lu Meng and reported in a deep voice.
The young man had taken off his mask. After executing the prisoners, he was covered in blood. His face showed no sign of fatigue, but instead showed more determination.
Now every swamp dweller has the blood of a member of the Stonerats on their hands.
This is revenge, and it is also a petition.
Now they no longer have the opportunity or possibility to retreat.
I am already an out-and-out rebellious, so I can only follow Mr. Lu and continue on this path.
Till death.
Lu Meng nodded: "Keep going!"
The advance of the leading troops of the Stone Rat Regiment was actually slightly beyond the plan.
They were forced to intercept the enemy in advance.
Otherwise, Huangshui Village will be exposed to these manic rats.
However, there are benefits to this.
That is: the vanguard and the main force of the Stone Rat Regiment are seriously out of touch, and the results of this ambush will not reach their camp until much later.
In the middle, there is a time difference that can be exploited.
"Get to their camp before the news leaks out." Lu Meng gathered everyone and went into battle lightly. "Our pace is faster than those escaping rats!"
Thanks for the reward and support from my friend please call me Wang Tiedan——
