Several girls were ecstatic and were about to shout for help when they heard conversations in the moonlight.
"Boss, if we escape like this, it will be over if General Zhu catches us."
"We've lost all the military rations. How can General Zhu care about us?" Hearing this voice, it was the money-grubbing commander who plundered all the banknotes from Shadow and let him pass.
He sneaked out of the military camp with a group of his men, preparing to escape with the wealth he had collected over the past few days.
Seeing that the right-hand man next to him was always hesitating, he always shook the knife in his hand and threatened: "What? You don't want to leave? If you don't want to leave, huh!!"
"Of course I want to leave!" The subordinate said this firmly, but soon his waist softened again, and he said in fear, "It's just that you know General Zhu's method of dealing with deserters, boss. It takes a thousand cuts to peel off the skin and bones."
Damn, it’s really terrible.”
The boss always had a determined look on his face and lowered his voice.
"Believe me, he can't even protect himself, how can he defeat us?"
"We let so many people out, and these people might have already leaked the news about the loss of our military rations.'
"The Night King will definitely seize this opportunity and attack Luozhou as soon as possible. If we don't leave now and wait for them to attack, it will be too late!"
"Yes, yes, the boss' analysis is correct." After hearing these words, the subordinate nodded hurriedly.
The girls hiding in the snow were filled with despair and lay in the snow without daring to move. Could Zhu Xiangyu, the soldier brought out by the bandit, be a good person?
Once you are taken away by them, I am afraid that you will fall from the tiger's mouth into the wolf's den, and the end will be equally miserable. It is better to die here.
This group of people were in a hurry to escape and did not notice the girls lying in the snow. They hurriedly disappeared into the snow under the moon.
At the Tongzhou Night Camp, Wang Chang, Lin Yi, Niu Zhi and other generals were summoned by Ji Xun overnight to discuss the military situation.
Niu Zhidao said, "Your Highness the Night King, since Zhu Xiangyu has lost his rations, let's just delay him for a few more days. When those soldiers are half-frozen and half-starved, we can attack again. Wouldn't we be able to capture him easily?"
Wang Chang shook his head.
"How could Zhu Xiangyu be so cruel and ruthless and wait for death? He might have snatched all the people's food in his hands within two days, and the victims would still be the common people."
"His Royal Highness the Night King, my subordinates think that if we want to save those people, it is best to send troops tonight to catch them by surprise."
"My subordinates agree with General Wang." Lin Yi, He Mang and others nodded.
After listening to Wang Chang's analysis, Niu Zhi felt that it was reasonable and hurriedly said, "My subordinates don't know much about Zhu Xiangyu. If he really doesn't care about the lives of the people, he really can't delay it."
Ji Xun listened to everyone's words and nodded calmly.
"Well, this is why I called you here overnight."
"The moonlight is bright tonight. It is a good weather for mobilizing troops. Let's go back quickly and prepare. We will attack Luozhou in three directions before Haishi."
"Yes, I take orders." Several people responded loudly, stood up at the same time, and then left in a hurry.
It was a new wave of people who guarded the frozen river channel from Tongzhou to Luozhou.
They privately took money from the chief executive to keep vigil on their behalf tonight.
Piles of bonfires were built on the shore, and strong drinks were drank to keep away the cold.
Zhu Xiangyu kept the matter of the loss of military rations a secret, and these subordinates also knew nothing about it. Just like in the past, they just thought it was an ordinary night. After a few sips of wine, some people went into the camp to sleep.
Others were leaning against the fire and dozing off.
A little soldier on guard at night woke up from the cold, got up and went to the side to relieve himself.
Before I finished urinating, snow suddenly fell from the tree next to me. Something seemed to cause a big shock, as if a large number of people were coming towards me.
He was so stunned that he forgot to pick up his pants. For a while, the sound of horse hooves approached, and then under the moonlight, he saw a group of cavalry coming from a distance like a mountain.
"Be careful~ Beware that the Night King has launched an attack." The little soldier's eyes widened with fear and he murmured in panic. He even forgot to pick up his pants and crawled back.
The other soldiers who were resting were also awakened by the movement.
No one expected that the Night King would suddenly attack, and everyone was in chaos.
There are nearly 200,000 soldiers guarding this pass. Everyone thinks that the Night King's soldiers are half-dead and starved without food and cannot take the initiative to attack, so most of them are soundly asleep at this moment.
But before the awakened guards had to sound the warning gongs and drums, a sudden rain of arrows struck them, and they fell to the ground one after another.
The group of cavalry rushed over, unstoppable, and rushed directly to the camp.
As we got closer, rockets began to be fired towards the tent, which soon ignited the tent and turned into a sea of flames.
"The Night King is attacking. Resist quickly! Hurry!" The deputy general, wearing a thin middle coat, rushed out of the sea of fire in a panic. He had lost all his shoes and shouted urgently.
After all, they were soldiers trained by Zhu Xiangyu. Although they were caught off guard and were a little confused, the soldiers soon began to fight back.
After the cavalry rushed through the level, Lin Yi rushed in with about 300,000 soldiers and fought with Zhu Xiangyu's soldiers.
Suddenly, fire and smoke rose into the sky, and the shouts of killing were loud.
Yongshui Town.
After Zhu Xiangyu arrived here, he immediately tied up all the men, women, and children in the town, dragged them to the flat ground outside the town, and poured kerosene on them.
After preparing all this, a deputy general threw a six or seven-year-old boy out of the crowd.
The child fell in front of Zhu Xiangyu and cried loudly.
Zhu Xiangyu held up a torch, glanced at the crowded crowd, and asked loudly.
"Whose son is it?"
"Come back to the general, he belongs to the common people." A middle-aged man in fairly well-dressed clothes walked out of the crowd cautiously, shielding his children behind him. "The common people have not received those grains. I hope the general will notice clearly."
"Whether you take it or not, you are required to hand over all the food at home immediately, otherwise~~" Zhu Xiangyu said and handed the torch to them.
They were doused with kerosene, and as long as a spark dropped, they would both be caught in the flames.
But the middle-aged man still hesitated and knelt on the ground and begged Zhu Xiangyu for mercy.
"Sir General, there are more than a dozen members of the grassroots family. If we hand over all the food, won't we starve to death?"
"Please, sir, please leave some for us. The common people are willing to pay three points for these two dollars."
"Huh? You still dare to bargain?" Before the man finished speaking, Zhu Xiangyu narrowed the corners of his mouth with fierce eyes and threw the torch at him.
The father and son suddenly fell into the sea of fire, wailing in pain, and kept rolling in the snow, asking for help.
But who dared to save them? So they knelt in the snow, trembling with fear.
The father and son were doused with fire oil, and no matter how much they rolled around, the fire could not be extinguished, and they were burned to black coals amidst the shrill wails.
