If you want to cut grass, you have to get rid of its roots. Otherwise, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows!
Zhu Bai led his advisor Yao Guangxiao and Qiongzhou Prefecture Magistrate Yuan Chongli on three horses and slowly headed towards King Qiong's estate.
On this trip back, Qiongzhou Prefecture Magistrate Yuan Chongli was too embarrassed to follow too closely.
On the contrary, Yao Guangxiao followed closely behind Zhu Bai this time, only landing a horse's head.
"Your Highness ~"
Yao Guangxiao, who was beside Zhu Bai, said softly,"Will General Zhang Fu and the others who entered early be in danger?”
Zhu Bai didn't turn his head. He only reached out and patted the portable Zhuge Repeating Crossbow at his waist. His gaze was still looking forward as he said,"They all have this thing with them.”
"In this situation, this king can only say that he deserves it!”
The moment Zhu Bai's words came out, the hearts of the two people following behind tightened.
Without waiting for the two of them to speak, Zhu Bai continued to mutter to himself," If you're lazy and don't sweat normally, you can only bleed on the battlefield this time..."
Yuan Chongli, who was on Zhu Bai's left, seemed to have regained his senses after walking for a while. He kindly reminded,"Your Highness, isn't it a bit too risky to let General Zhang Fu and the others enter early?”
This time, Zhu Bai unexpectedly turned his head and glared at Yuan Chongli.
He turned around and said in a deep voice,"It's better to let these soldiers bleed than to let the commoners bleed! If the soldiers didn't protect the people, what was the point of keeping them?”
Facing King Qiong Zhu Bai's scolding, Yuan Chongli lowered his head in shame.
Along the way, he didn't speak anymore.
······
As the commander Zhang Fu and the others gradually went deeper, these eleven people gradually discovered traces of human activity in the dense forest.
As he walked further in, he could see piles of human bones and charcoal from time to time.
At this moment, according to Zhu Bai's instructions.
Commander Zhang Fu ordered everyone to form into groups of three, with their backs against each other and forming blind spots.
The remaining two people were Zhang Fu and a soldier, who were sticking close to his back.
The eleven of them held the Zhuge Repeating Crossbows in their hands, their right index fingers on the triggers, ready to pull the trigger at any time.
in this way
The eleven of them slowly advanced through the dense forest.
Very quickly!
Before they could walk out, an extremely sharp long bamboo shot out.
"Be careful!"
With a loud shout, the few of them successfully dodged the attack. The sharpened long bamboo was firmly inserted into the ground.
Everyone held their breath and carefully observed the movements in the forest.
Commander Zhang Fu said,"When we shoot later, aim at the head!"”
"Whoever dares to miss, go and pick up all the arrows!”
"Here!"
"Whoosh!"
One of the soldiers pulled the trigger without hesitation, and a fine steel short arrow shot out instantly, cutting through the air and emitting an ear-piercing buzz.
What followed was the sound of a heavy object falling from the tree.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a barbarian wearing a simple leather coat fall to the ground. Half of his head had been pierced by a short arrow.
"Yang Ning, you f * cker!”
"Hahaha! That's right. Otherwise, how would I teach you to shoot firecrackers?”
"Hahahaha!"
Three people in a group, these eleven veterans who had been on the battlefield for a long time could still laugh and talk on such a dangerous battlefield.
soon
A few more extremely sharp bamboos flew out of the dense forest.
There were also rocks!
With three people in a team, there were no blind spots in all directions. Even if killing weapons kept flying out, no one was hit.
Although these hidden Qiongzhou natives didn't stab these battle-hardened men to death, the movement of them throwing the long bamboos was firmly captured by these eleven people!
Once he found the exact location, his index finger on the trigger would pull without hesitation!
"Whoosh!"
"Whoosh!"
Following a series of buzzing sounds that pierced through the air, the figures hidden in the dark fell to the ground one after another.
After a few breaths of time, the surrounding movements had completely quieted down.
At this moment, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
The few of them went forward and prepared to pick up the short arrows.
Yang Ning, who had just received first blood, wanted to show off her skills in front of everyone. She wanted to show everyone that she had shot an eyeball from five steps away.
"Whoosh!"
As Yang Ning's index finger pulled the trigger, a short arrow shot out from the crossbow.
Then, the people around Yang Ning burst into laughter.
It turned out that this short arrow that was about to pierce the eyes missed by a centimeter and cut through the barbarian's cheek, stabbing into the soil beside it.
Commander Zhang Fu, who was still looking around, heard the laughter and looked over.
Then, he gave an unquestionable order,""Yang Ning, go and pick up all the arrows!”
There was another round of laughter. Under everyone's heated gazes, Yang Ning lowered her head and walked forward while cursing. She stuck her butt out and pulled out the short arrows from the corpses 'heads one by one.
He was still cursing non-stop,"If any f * cker tells His Highness about this, I won't let him off!"”
······
While Yang Ning was picking up the arrows, the 3,000 men behind him had already arrived.
Under the command of Commander Zhang Fu and the other ten commanders.
With the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow in his hand, he headed towards the high mountains and dense forests, using a carpet style to force back the man-eaters step by step.
Although these barbarians had not evolved to speak, they were not stupid. They knew that once they were forced out of the dense forest, they would die.
so
On the mountaintop, three to four thousand barbarians started their counterattack.
King Qiong's analysis was correct. Although these cannibals numbered over four thousand, they were still uncivilized barbarians.
No matter how many people there were, it would be difficult to form a large-scale combat force.
He only needed to stay in the dense forest and guard against their sneak attacks.
Just like that, under the correct tactical guidance;
With the addition of the Zhuge Repeating Crossbows that were suitable for the jungle, the 3,000 Cypress Battalion did not expend a single soldier. In less than four hours, they had wiped out most of the cannibals in the jungle.
The remaining less than 1000 people were all forced out of the dense forest by the 3000-strong Bai Zi Battalion.
He kept retreating.
Almost all the barbarians were forced to the edge of the sea cliff. In order to save short arrows, a large number of cannibals were forced to jump into the sea to feed the fish.
When the Tang Dynasty conquered Qiongzhou, these cannibals had sneaked into the island from India's territory.
For hundreds of years, they had harassed and plundered the local people.
In the past dynasties, there was no lack of officials sending out regular troops to encircle and suppress them.
However, most of the people who went there were more than those who came back alive.
Even the thousand troops that Yuan Chongli had borrowed were almost completely wiped out by the barbarians.
On the shore, the cannibals bared their fangs and brandished their claws, wanting to launch their final resistance.
However, under the crosshairs of the Zhuge Crossbows, they fell one after another.
At such a close distance, a short arrow could penetrate two or even three people!
In order to seek their last chance of survival, these cannibals had no choice but to jump into the sea.
When all the barbarians jumped into the sea, Commander Zhang Fu ordered,""Go, don't leave a single one alive!”
"Cut the weeds and remove the roots!"
A group of soldiers stood on the shore and aimed their sights at the cannibals who were struggling in the sea.
