Chapter 778 Respect
After Gujie talked with Mo Tai, he immediately sent Geng Pei to arrange the arrest of the people, and asked the army to arrest some farmers along the way, and brought them to Qingyang City.
A small village along the way.
Thousands of Daqin soldiers rushed in and arrested them when they saw them. The villagers were shocked.
There were crying sounds!
In a blink of an eye, more than a hundred people were arrested in the entire village, most of whom were the elderly, weak, women, children and children.
Similar events have occurred in many villages.
At this moment, the gate of Qingyang City was closed, and the soldiers guarding the city gathered on the city wall and were ready for battle. There were about 10,000 people, including twenty red-clothed cannons, hundreds of mortars, and countless ammunition.
Fang Hao stood on the city gate tower, holding a telescope to observe, and now he could vaguely see the soldiers of the Qin Dynasty coming one after another.
After Qingyang City expanded its population, the entire city wall also expanded. The city wall was ten feet high, and a tower shooting port was set up, etc., making it more secure.
Outside the city wall, there are basically farmland, with few farmers, with a total of no more than 10,000 people scattered in various small villages, and a track line leads to the cement workshops in the mountains outside the city.
At this time, Fang Hao suddenly had a deep brow and was a little angry.
It was precisely when I saw the farmers of Daxia who were being escorted among the soldiers of Daqin. These people had their eyes full of fear. If they walked slowly, they were beaten and kicked.
"Damn it!" Fang Hao cursed.
"Beast! The people of Daqin are simply beasts!"
Seeing Fang Hao suddenly getting angry, Mu Chen next to him immediately looked into the distance, and immediately became angry.
"They actually took the farmers as hostages!"
Fang Hao punched the city wall. Due to the excessive force, blood oozing out of his skin. At this moment, he felt extremely guilty. He had never expected that the people of the Qin Dynasty were so shameless and did not take precautions!
"It's my fault..." Fang Hao murmured to himself with a dazed look.
Mu Chen quickly comforted him, "Young Master, this is not your fault, it is the shameless people of the Qin Dynasty... Don't blame yourself..."
After a while, Fang Hao calmed down and said, "We must find a way to rescue the hostages. In any case, the farmers should not be sacrificed in vain, even if they pay some price."
"What do you mean is to buy the hostages?" Mu Chen was a little confused.
But after a moment, he shook his head, "Unless we give the recipe for the killing weapon, the people of the Qin Dynasty will not let anyone go."
Fang Hao looked at the telescope again. There were tens of thousands of soldiers coming one after another, gathering five miles outside the city gate, and there were about a few thousand hostages mixed in the army.
The number is too many.
It is not ordinary difficulty to rescue.
At this time, Shangguan Yao and Hongman walked up to the city, and they had been restraining the masters of the Qin Dynasty in the city, but they were not at ease with Fang Hao, so they came over and took a look.
"What's wrong?" Shangguan Yao immediately found that Fang Hao's face was not good.
Seeing Shangguan Yao coming, Fang Hao felt better and quickly took the hostages and briefly talked about it.
"This is too much!" Hongman shouted sweetly.
"What I look down on the most is this kind of person. He bullies the weak and is afraid of the strong. He has the ability to come to us and fly balloons. What is the ability to bully farmers?!"
Shangguan Yao frowned, "This is a difficult thing to do."
"The big killer is good at attacking far and group attacks, and they took hostages and put them in front of them. In this case, we completely lost the advantage."
"Actually, this happens often on the battlefield."
"In most cases, when a large army fights, they won't care about the life or death of the civilians."
"The reason why they do this is a gamble. You Fang Hao dare not ignore it and lose the hearts of others."
Fang Hao nodded and was silent for a moment, "We must rescue these people, no matter how much the price!"
Hongman looked at Fang Hao with some surprise. In traditional wars, this situation usually occurs, and the hostages are dead. However, Fang Hao's determination to save people is so firm.
"They are just some ordinary farmers..."
The implication is that Hongman naturally reminds Fang Hao that the cost of saving people is too high and not worth it.
"What's wrong with the farmer?!" Fang Hao's eyes were filled with anger.
"Their lives are the same as our Fang Hao! There is no high or low life!"
After hearing Fang Hao's words, Shangguan Yao felt relieved and once again proved that she had read the wrong person. Such a person who knows how to respect life is awesome!
"Oh..." Hongman sighed.
In fact, she couldn't bear to watch the peasants die, but the war was so cruel.
About an hour later, all the troops led by Gujie arrived. After experiencing flying balloon bombing, only 90,000 people remained, and many of them were slightly injured and their combat effectiveness decreased significantly.
When he saw the hostages they were carrying, Gujie had no expression on his face.
There was no sympathy at all.
Hate! He was now full of hatred, hating Fang Hao for killing too many people from the Qin Dynasty and was eager to avenge his shame immediately.
Similarly, the soldiers of Daqin were the same.
There is only one belief at this moment, take revenge! The embarrassed warrior was full of fighting spirit on his face, especially when he saw the hostages, he felt a little more secure and had long forgotten the sense of shame.
However, some soldiers thought this was not good, but their voices were weak and drowned by hostility.
And the hostages were very scared at this moment.
Suddenly, I was taken out of my home, surrounded by strange faces, carrying steel weapons, and in a word, I fisted and fought back. Someone resisted, but was killed.
They really kill people, and they kill without blinking!
At this moment, the farmers only understood a little when they saw Qingyang City ahead.
"So they are going to attack Qingyang City!" said in a low voice.
"Yes, we are taking us as hostages and threatening Fang Hao."
"Damn Daqin people, are there no one in Daxia..."
"Fang Hao will rescue us."
"How to save it? Didn't you see that they have an army of 100,000?"
"I don't want to die..."
On this side, Fang Hao kept observing the city tower and counted the number of hostages, about 5,000, and there were not many masters among the 100,000 soldiers.
"Send experts to rescue, there will be a certain success rate." Fang Hao said to himself.
"Take a sniper and kill the soldiers guarding around you. The only difficult thing is how to return to the city. The farmers' running speed is too slow."
"Or, let them take the train..."
At this time, Fang Hao was thinking about saving the hostages, and Shangguan Yao and Hongman also came up with ideas.
"The hostages are too dispersed." Shangguan Yao frowned slightly.
"If it is rescue, it must be carried out at the same time, otherwise it will cause hostage casualties."
Fang Hao nodded, but Hongman disagreed, "I think there is no need to be so careful. These hostages are the life-saving talismans of the Great Qin soldiers. They will not tear up the tickets. Once they tear up the tickets, we will have no scruples and easily fry them into meat sauce."
Chapter completed!
