Chapter 167 Shooting and Killing Civilians

Cao Ang stood on the city wall of Zhuangguan, looking at the Hun army that covered the sky and the sun in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh.

Cao Ren bowed to him and said, "The general was incompetent. Unexpectedly, Huchuquan seemed reckless, but he was a cautious person. Before the army arrived, the scouts had been spread across dozens of miles. Our meticulous work could not get any advantage. We made a detailed report. Wherever the Huns' army went, whether it was the territory of the Wei family or the Baibo army, all the people were hunted and escorted here."

Cao Ren paused for a moment, then whispered: "The generals of the country think that the enemy wants to force these people to attack the gate, attack the morale of the defenders, and consume our defensive materials!"

Cao Ang frowned and whispered: "Is there any possibility of rescuing them? I sent someone to inform them of evacuation a few days ago. Why are they still staying there?"

Cao Ren shook his head and replied in a low voice: "I must be reluctant to give up pots and pans. Besides, they are all under the Wei family's rule and do not trust us! As for going out to rescue them, I guess all the elites in Huchuquan are waiting for us to go out to fight! Most of them are cavalry, and their favorite is encounter battles!"

Cao Ang slapped the battlements hard and said in a deep voice: "Give me instructions to distribute the city guard supplies and organize archers to stand by. If... if the other party forces the people to attack the city, I allow you to shoot freely! In addition, announce that some outstanding archers will gather, and there may be a Hun 'Eagle' on the opposite side! You should be more careful, put on two layers of armor, uncle!"

Cao Ren couldn't help looking at Cao Ang and whispered: "Don't worry, lord, that's the arrow that can shoot me will never be created. I guess the other party will harass us tomorrow. The lord can watch the battle in the city without going to the city. If I can't handle this small situation, then what else can I have to be a guard here?!"

Cao Ang knew what Cao Ren meant, and letting himself watch the battle in the city was for his own safety, and on the other hand, it was for Cao Ang's reputation. After all, even out of helplessness, shooting the people would bring bad reputation.

Looking at Cao Ang’s earnest eyes, Cao Ang smiled slightly and turned to the city. Only a word drifted with the wind moved Cao Ren: "Tomorrow, I will cheer for the general on the city tower!"

Cao Ren saluted Cao Ang's back seriously, "Lord, since you insist on taking on the infamy of shooting civilians, then I, Cao Ren, have nothing else. I will break the enemy formation for you in this life and kill the enemy and thieves, and I will never regret it!"

The next morning, the Huns made an exception and killed 500 sheep, boiled them into mutton soup, and distributed them to the people who were regarded as consumables by them. Among them were the people under the Wei family, the riots under the Baibo army, and even the Huns from some small tribes.

More than a dozen general translators rode on the horse and shouted loudly: "Mr. Zuo Xianwang, I will give you some extra meals! They are all delicious mutton, which is cheaper for you bastards! Lord. Zuo Xianwang said that you must break through the wall of the Zangguan at noon today, and no one is allowed to retreat. If there is any violation, they will be killed. After everyone finishes their meal, they will collect weapons from the camp gate and head towards Zangguan!"

Hearing the voice of the translator, a captured Han soldier whispered: "Master Tun, let's go back! The place where the Zheguan is not a fool. When we rush over, we will definitely shoot arrows, so we can't rush over. Instead of dying at the Zheguan, it's better to fight with the Huns!"

The general wearing the clothes of a soldier nodded: "I'll discuss with them. After a while, we will get the weapons and will be damn! Anyway, we'll die, so we have to find a Hun to take care of it!"

The crowd swore and discussed each other, but when they came out of the camp under the fully armed Huns, they couldn't help but sigh when they looked at the weapons they received. These Huns were so cunning that they had only given each of them a wooden stick, and the green leaves on them had not been picked up yet!

Before everyone could complain, the dozens of people behind had been beheaded by the Huns. The previous translators shouted loudly: "If you take the Zang Pass, you will all survive; if you can't catch it, you will all die!"

After being forced by them, many people couldn't help but run to the side of the Zhe Pass. Everyone was Han, and maybe the defenders would even open the door and let themselves enter the Pass!

Seeing the people getting closer and closer, Cao Ren shouted loudly: "Everyone shouts together, those who rush to pass the pass will die, run into the mountains on both sides!"

Hearing his orders, all the soldiers guarding the pass shouted loudly: "Those who rush through the pass will die, run into the mountains on both sides!"

When the people under the city heard the shouts, they couldn't help but hesitate. But looking at the vast and boundless primeval forests on both sides, no one dared to fight for their lives. God knows how many beasts and wolves there are, and everyone has no food. It's not like rushing in to die! Do those guards really have the heart to shoot arrows?

Except for a small group of people, most people ran towards the side of Zheguan. Before Cao Ang gave the order, Cao Ren had already shouted loudly: "Shoot the arrow!"

Last night, Cao Ren had already introduced the situation to everyone, and everyone knew it. Besides, once the Huns broke through the barrier, no one could escape the word death, and everyone's family would be insulted by the Huns. Life is worse than death! Instead of losing their lives for a moment of kindness, it would be better to be iron-blooded now!

Most of the soldiers followed Cao Ren's order and shot arrows from the people under the city.

The people under the city had no protection of armor or wooden shields, and almost every arrow could take away the lives of a commoner. Under the concentrated shooting of two thousand defenders on the city, almost everyone failed to cross the moat and died on the bank of the river!

As the four or five thousand people who were leading the battle were shot and killed by the guards of the gates, the remaining people dared not continue to move forward. They all stopped and retreated.

At this time, Luan Ti was ordered by Chuquan, and a thousand soldiers in charge of the war immediately shot out bows and arrows at the retreating people.

The translators took the opportunity to shout: "There is still a glimmer of hope to move forward, and you will be shot and killed on the spot when you retreat!"

Looking at the fully armed Huns and the corpses on the ground, the people could only turn around in tears and continue to rush towards the side of Ziguan.

Goubei whispered: "Zuo Xianwang, is this useful? You and I know that the guards on the opposite side must have prepared a lot of supplies, and these people will not play much role!"

Hu Chuquan smiled coldly, "No, go humble, you are wrong! I don't plan to let them break through the barrier, but just let them use their bodies to fill the moat, fill all the trenches, and pave the way for us to attack. Besides, the Han army in the city killed all the Han people, and they would be lenient. They would gradually become numb and slack when they were filled with righteous indignation. They not only consumed their physical strength, but also damaged their morale. Why not do it?!"

Seeing the people's bodies filling the trenches and filling the moat, Huchuquan gave the order, the trumpeter immediately blew the trombone. Hearing his order, two hundred carefully selected The Legend of the Condor He rode their horses to the city wall.

Although they were charging, these eagles had no intention of attacking. Instead, they grabbed the war horses near the ground outside the city. With their advantages in the range of the longbow and their excellent shooting skills, they kept shooting the Cao army soldiers guarding the city.

In just one encounter, more than a hundred soldiers fell under the arrows of these Huns. Many soldiers could not help but hesitate to dodge, paying more attention to the protection of battlements. They always hesitate and threw their heads out and smashed the rolling stones and wood under the city. Regardless of whether they hit the target or not, the soldiers retracted their heads and did not dare to show up to see.

As a result, the efficiency of the Cao family soldiers plummeted, and more and more people successfully rushed to the city. While shouting to save me, they hit the city wall with wooden sticks and tried to dig out a passage.

The walls of Zhuangguan are very thick, and the people's attempts are only futile. However, with the vibrations of the city walls, more and more guards feel a little sad and cannot help but feel a little pity. And now the fierce battle has come, everyone is a little tired and no longer has the strength of the previous one.

Huchuquan himself is a The Legend of the Condor He has excellent eyesight. He was immediately overjoyed when he saw the sparse bows and arrows on the city walls. He immediately shouted loudly: "Blow the trumpet, three long and one short, the whole army will attack!"

Hearing his order, the soldiers blew the horns and horns with great force, three long and one short. This is also a signal of making a detailed agreement with the city. After hearing this order, the slasher who had long been infiltrated into the city should get up immediately, and work with the inside and outside!

Hearing the enemy's horn, Cao Ren shouted loudly: "Reserve team, come on!"

While shouting, he rushed out in person, ran to a battlement, and shot arrows outside.

Soon, a Hun Sagittarius noticed him, immediately raised his longbow and aimed at him. Boy, you deserved to be unlucky!

He was making up his wishful thinking when his chest suddenly shook, and then an indescribable tingling and cold spread throughout his body. He looked down and saw a long arrow in his heart!

Xiahou Yuan suddenly jumped up to the battlement, stood there, constantly pulling the longbow in his hand, and shooting against the Huns' Sagittarius!

While shooting, Xiahou Yuan shouted loudly: "It's Xiahou Yuan of Qiao County. Who dares to shoot against me?!"

Faced with such an arrogant human-shaped target, many eagles were so angry that they changed their targets and aimed at Xiahou Yuan.

However, the subordinates trained by Xiahou Yuan did not have any arrangements, especially the long bows in their hands were more sophisticated than those of the Huns; the long arrows in their hands were more powerful than those of the Huns' feather arrows. More than a hundred archers exerted their strength together, suppressing the Huns' eagle shooters in the distance!

Xiahou Yuan jumped off the battlement very casually and shook his sore wrists. The damn group of Huns, the archery skills are really good!
