"Yes!" Eight soldiers beside Lu Youde immediately rushed into the group that had returned from defeat. Without any explanation, they pulled Lu Xiaofeng up, chopped off his head with a knife, and lifted him up to a high pole. More soldiers pulled him up from the crowd.
The three fire chiefs and one centurion leader who were still alive were held in front of the furious Lu Youde with knives on their necks, waiting to be punished.
"Take off your armor and clothes, beat twenty with a cane in front of everyone, and then demote them to ordinary soldiers, and serve them for their crimes!" Lu Youde turned a deaf ear to the four men's pleas for mercy, and gritted his teeth and issued the order.
This result is slightly better than beheading in public, but it is also very limited. Not to mention that after being stripped naked and spanked in public, the three fire chiefs and one centurion leader will never be able to raise their heads in front of their companions again. The next time they launch
During the attack, they had to endure the pain and rush to the front. It would definitely be a narrow escape and there would be no return.
"All the soldiers who came back from the defeat disarmed their weapons and shields, acted as dead soldiers, and smashed the door with their hammers! Anyone who fled without fighting would be killed on the spot!" Lu Youde still couldn't understand his hatred, and glanced at the other defeated soldiers.
, his expression was twisted and ferocious, and the depths of his eyes were full of madness.
At this moment, some of the Lu soldiers burst into tears on the spot. They had been protected by shields and covered by archers, and they had suffered one-third casualties. If there were no protection and cover measures, how many people would be able to come back alive in the next attack.
Some of these soldiers of the Lu family have been servants or guards to the Lu family for generations, and some have been tenants of the Lu family for several generations. They have received favors from the Lu family, are loyal to the Lu family, are grateful, and have high military pay.
That's why they risked beheading to become Lu's private soldiers, but Lu Youde didn't treat them as human beings, and some people already had resentment in their hearts.
However, Lu Youde didn't pay any attention to what they were thinking now, because as time went by, he became more and more uneasy. After all, what they were doing was similar to rebellion. Although he sent people to blockade the area, the Navy was
The camp is not far from the county seat of Rongcheng. Navy officers and soldiers and county soldiers may come to support at any time, especially since Wang Junlin has arranged to keep an eye on the 500 navy cavalry outside the city. Can the more than 5,000 untouchables be able to hold off for an hour?
, even if it is delayed for an hour, can their side kill Wang Junlin within an hour? Lu Youde's heart was filled with deep worries.
"Zhao Guangrui, you bring two more centurions up. Lu Xiaoxiao, take the people to carry the tree trunks that you just cut down. Xiao Wu, you put all the trash that you just removed in front of the formation and let them be responsible for carrying the trees.
Bump the door! Anyone who refuses to follow will be killed!" After quickly weighing the importance, Lu Youdehan ordered with a face: "I don't care what means you use, after half an hour, you must take down the entire temple, otherwise you will know the result."
"Yes!" Zhao Guangrui agreed loudly, taking the lead and bowing his hands to Lu Youde, "Young master, please take a rest first. Within half an hour, I will definitely ask the young master to personally kill the king Junlin."
"Okay, I hope you will do what you say." After hearing this, Lu Youde, whose face was already filled with frost, softened slightly, kicked forward Xuxu, and added loudly: "Go ahead, if you can do it,
I will make you a deacon of the Lu family or at least a military attaché of the seventh rank, and I will also reward you with thousands of taels of silver and a thousand acres of fertile land."
"Thank you, Master!" Zhao Guangrui was overjoyed, his eyes full of greed, and he bowed obediently to Lu Youde.
"Well, go ahead, don't embarrass me, and don't let the sect master down!" Seeing that Captain Zhao Guangrui was very angry, Lu Youde had a slight smile on his face, and said loudly: "Come here, give Captain Zhao and the others a shot.
Shield cheers!”
"Yes!" The surrounding soldiers agreed in unison. They waved their steel swords and struck hard on the shields covered with iron sheets.
"Bah bah bah, bah bah bah, bah bah bah!" The monotonous and repetitive knocking sounds sounded again, not as loud as before, but ten times more murderous. And behind each round of knocking sounds, there seemed to be
With the determination of never looking back.
"Brothers, follow me!" Captain Zhao Guangrui took a deep breath, holding a knife in one hand and a shield in the other, and strode forward. He didn't have to look back, there were naturally people trotting to keep up. He didn't have to do too much mobilization either.
, there is Lu Xiaofeng’s bloody head, and there are more than a hundred dead soldiers who have had their weapons taken away, and can only carry the tree trunk they just cut down to hit the door. Every Lu soldier behind him knows that he
What to do.
"Boom boom, boom boom, boom boom!" The sound of the blade and shield hitting each other came one after another, making it so depressing that it was hard to breathe.
Lu Youde still arranged for 500 archers to suppress the imperial archers on the temple walls.
The distance between Lu's soldiers and the temple gate quickly shortened. Two hundred steps, one hundred and fifty steps, one hundred steps, eighty steps...
"Whoosh whoosh, whoosh whoosh, whoosh whoosh..." The five master archers standing on the ridge of the Yingbin Hall took the lead in attacking the enemy.
Seven or eight "dead soldiers" carrying the tree trunk screamed and fell. The attacking team of Lu's soldiers paused slightly at first, but then immediately accelerated their speed. Captain Zhao Guangrui, who led the team, personally rushed to the dead soldiers.
Behind them, they waved their steel knives in a chopping motion towards the hesitant ones. There were also more than sixty archers who followed the team and put their arrows on their bow arms, not aiming at the blue-clad guards standing high on the roof.
The archers instead aimed at their own robes carrying the tree trunk at the front of their own team.
"Brothers, if you advance, you will find fertile land and money, but if you retreat, you will definitely die. Follow me up!" Centurion leader Lu Xiaoxiao, who was temporarily transferred by Lu Youde to command the "dead soldiers", was also considered a rare and brave person.
The steel sword and shield protected the vital points of his body, and he rushed to the front of the entire team against the rain of arrows.
Come with me, and come with me, although there is only one word difference between them. In the era of cold weapons, the effect is heaven and earth. Seeing that even the young master’s confidant Lu Xiaoxiao rushed forward at the risk of his life,
Knowing that there was no way out, the "soldiers" were greatly encouraged. They howled like ghosts and wolves, hugged the tree trunks, lowered their heads, and staggered forward.
The five blue-clad archers standing on the ridge of the welcoming hall had already seen everything clearly. They concentrated their arrows and greeted Lu Xiaoxiao and Zhao Guangrui. However, these two were selected by the Lu family.
These three thousand private soldiers hold important positions, and their martial arts and combat experience are far beyond those of ordinary soldiers.
When these two people ran, their bodies moved left and right, high and low, never giving them a chance to aim at themselves. They were not overly nervous when they encountered danger. They used shields to block them if they could, and used steel knives if they could.
I used a steel knife to pry, but it was too late to use the shield to block the knife, so I simply retracted my body behind the shield and rolled on the ground like a wild donkey. I tried my best to protect the chest, abdomen, throat and other vital parts, and used minor injuries to
In exchange for a chance to survive, it is obvious that these two people are different from ordinary Lu's thieves. They have extremely rich experience in fighting on the battlefield.
