Chapter 337: The Golden Finger Shows Its Power Again
The tyrant was too cruel, but not stupid either. He knew too well that the battlefield was ever-changing and giving the enemy time would be courting his own death.
Therefore, just three breaths after the chief eunuch's shouting, he saw that the army below was actually deploying troops and there was no sign of withdrawal. The cowardly monarch, who was hiding behind the chief eunuch at the lookout and peeking around, fearing that he would be targeted by archers, smiled coldly and waved his hand again.
"Kill them for me, until Shen Yue, the kid down there, gets scared and retreats! Ha! I don't believe it. The whole Yuezhou City has died for him. Even if he takes over my Dajing world, can he sit still? Will the people obey him? Kill them, kill them ruthlessly!"
"Here!"
Following another order from the incompetent monarch and another sarcastic response from the eunuch, the one-sided massacre began again.
And many of the soldiers who were holding sharp blades and standing next to these innocent civilians felt pity at this moment.
They are also from Dajing, and they served in the army to protect the territory of Dajing and the people of the world...
Although there are inevitably many people among them who are afraid of death and have small thoughts, some of them even dare not go to the front line to fight with the Hu soldiers, and follow the tyrant to flee south in a hurry. They may be timid and afraid of trouble, and may not be good people, but being bad does not mean that they are without blood and conscience.
Even when military orders could no longer be enforced, they could still wield the butcher knife again and again against their own people, their own civilians… They were also flesh and blood, they also had fathers and mothers, wives and children.
Perhaps the souls killed by my sword today are the family members of my former comrades;
Perhaps the life of one of the comrades who is being slain by the sword at this moment is his beloved family and relatives;
How can one bear to kill each other?
For a moment, the soldiers standing on the city wall hesitated in their hearts and wavered in their hands.
The chief eunuch saw that these stinky soldiers did not obey his orders and just stood there without taking any action. The chief eunuch, who was used to being in a superior position, could not help but frown in displeasure. He snorted contemptuously at the loyal General Zhou and showed disdain.
"Why, General Zhou, is this how you rule your people? Look at these soldiers of yours, they are very disobedient! Or are you also rebelling and not obeying His Majesty? Do you want to harm His Majesty?"
"I dare not!"
With such a high hat coming down upon them, how could a loyal and patriotic old official, whose family had been loyal to their duties for generations, dare to bear such a heavy crime?
General Zhou quickly apologized, then immediately turned around and glared at his soldiers, waving his hand again, and cruelly ordered: "Everyone, listen to my orders, kill!"
As a soldier, obedience is natural.
Seeing the commander's order, even if they had any hesitation in their hearts, the soldiers subconsciously raised their knives high.
Wailing and panic spread in Yuezhou City. On the city wall, before the battle even started, the smell of blood had already filled the entire city wall.
Li Yaoguang and Ji Mo, who had seen all of this, had actually already taken action when the first thousand people were brutally massacred.
This time, even Ji Mo could not say no in the face of Li Yaoguang's determination and the threat to the lives of tens of millions of innocent people in the city.
When Li Yaoguang proposed to risk her life to save others, even though she knew that the power of the two of them was like the light of a spark, in this situation, as long as Li Yaoguang wanted, he, Ji Yizi, would accompany her, even to death!
Ji Mo nodded solemnly when Li Yaoguang asked him to watch. When a thousand people in front of them died innocently and fell off the city wall, the two of them rushed into the city at the fastest speed in their lives.
Ji Mo used everything he had at hand and the medicine he had on hand to quickly make a smoke bomb. He also used his profound skills to run around the city and set up smoke-inducing bases.
Li Yaoguang was lying in ambush in a well-surveyed favorable terrain, hiding her body. When the time agreed with Ji Mo arrived, she saw the signal given by her father and brother sounded, and smoke began to appear in various places in the city from dots to lines. It seemed that the smoke points set by her father and brother began to work. The smoke with obstacles was like the morning fog, instantly submerging the entire building behind the city wall, spreading from the center to the four towers, and then spreading out. In the blink of an eye, things in front could not be seen ten meters away. Before the huge smoke enveloped the city and the tyrant king and his party at the city gate found something wrong, Li Yaoguang acted decisively and quickly called out the gold finger that she had not used for a long time. She quickly clicked on the ancient combat audio of tens of thousands of people attacking and cavalry, which she had checked long ago, and turned on the maximum loudspeaker.
“Kill, kill!”
"Hiss, Hui'er Qiuqiu..."
Ding ding ding, clang clang clang...
For a moment, the sounds of horses neighing and weapons clashing could be heard continuously, and the shouts of thousands of people fighting gathered together, making a deafening sound, mixed with the sound of golden swords and iron horses, making it huge.
The noise came too suddenly, and the emperor and the unprepared people on the city wall were caught off guard. They were like frightened birds, and they all looked towards the direction of the city behind them in horror.
Seeing the city filled with smoke and deafening fighting, their legs went weak and they held on to the wall, grabbing the arms of their colleagues, trembling and crying out in fear.
"This, this, this, this... this, did the enemy break through the city from the rear gate?"
"Enemy attack, enemy attack, there is an enemy attack in the rear!"
"Quick, come quickly, increase the alert!"
"Oh my God, when did the enemy break into the city? Why is there no movement from other directions? Could it be that there was an ambush in the city? Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
"Hurry, defend quickly, why are you standing there like an idiot? Where are the Imperial Guards? Where are the Five City Army? Where are General Zhou, General Niu, General Gao, and the others? Where are the people? Are they all dead? Hurry!"
Suddenly, there was chaos on the city wall.
The innocent civilians who had just been taken to the lookout and had not yet been killed were able to catch their breath. Seeing that the situation was not good, the young, strong and courageous ones simply took the risk and fought to their death, engaging in a fight with the armed soldiers around them. The city was instantly in chaos.
Among the civilians who were being escorted under the city, some who did not want to die and were strong resisted when they saw the bad situation.
The soldiers on the city wall, who still had a conscience, hesitated in their hearts and secretly let the enemy pass. They even secretly covered for these innocent civilians in many cases, thus saving many innocent lives.
And it was at this time that Li Yao and Ji Mo met up.
The two took advantage of the chaos on the city wall. Li Yaoguang was led by Ji Mo to quickly pass through the chaotic army, and jumped onto the city wall in one go and headed straight for the tyrant.
The two cooperated well. As soon as they climbed onto the city wall, Ji Mo took the initiative to block the people who discovered them, while Li Yaoguang, holding a sharp weapon, rushed straight to the bright yellow figure in the center of the city wall.
Because they came suddenly and took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, and because Ji Mo's kung fu was very powerful, they were able to successfully achieve their goal.
When Li Yaoguang crossed the crowd and came in front of the tyrant, as soon as they met, she kicked him hard, straight at his knee, causing him to stagger and fall to the ground. Without waiting for the tyrant who was screaming in pain to react, Li Yaoguang pressed the dagger in her hand against his neck and pressed down hard until a bloody mark appeared. The tyrant trembled and begged for mercy in fear. Li Yaoguang then dragged the tyrant with his weak legs like a dead dog and shouted to the people who were besieging her father and brother.
"Stop! The tyrant is in my hands. If you don't want him to die, put down your weapons immediately."
