Chapter 211: Bad News

The eldest prince finally left with his army, Ma Quaiao sighed regretfully, Ghost Cry and the Shu army will also leave soon, he can't keep them after all.

And in the evening of this day, Ma Qu got an urgent report of illness, which was a big bad news from the Heavenly Master's Mansion, Mount Tai collapsed!

Before Ma could recover from his illness, he got another bad news the next day, Yuan Zhou assassinated Shi Wang Lun and rebelled.

Then, one after another, urgent reports poured in, radiating in all directions with the center of Mount Tai, and there were officials rebelling one after another, people rioting, and demons and monsters running rampant.

There are calls for help everywhere, and it seems that there is war burning everywhere.

Chaos, like mushrooms after a rain, instantly popped up all over the Great Zhou.

Ma Qu couldn't sit still anymore, and hurriedly led the troops back to Luoyang, the capital of the division. As for Ghost Cry and the remnants of the Shu army, because it was not on the way, Ghost Cry and the Shu army said goodbye to the horse. Ma Qu was anxious and anxious, and the ghost cried. He received news from Elder Feng through the jade talisman that Nangong was being hunted down, but fortunately he had already joined him.

However, even if he knew that Nangong had already joined Elder Feng and was safe and sound, how could he rest assured that the ghost was crying.

After saying goodbye, he and the Shu army pioneer battalion, which had only more than 100 people left, took the lead and hurried south.

Ma Qu was sick and did not stay, at this time his brain was in a mess, he couldn't care about these at all, and hurriedly walked to Luoyang with the army, if it wasn't for the physical strength of the soldiers, he couldn't wait for the whole army to march quickly, just to go back to preside over the overall situation as soon as possible.

When he arrived outside Luoyang City, he found that the gate of Luoyang City was closed, and Ma Qu was sick and asked a loud hundred people to call open the city gate, but the hundred people were killed by random arrows under the city, and Ma Quai's heart sank.

But on the other side, the ghost cried that they had only been gone for a day, and they met a group of Zhou Jun.

Zhou Jun was slaughtering the village, and a fire broke out in the village, and the villagers let out a terrible howl.

At this time, the commander of the pioneer battalion was named Chen Yu, a young man who was only twenty years old, and he was full of enthusiasm. Seeing this situation, where can I bear it, I immediately picked up the gun and was about to get on it, but was stopped by the ghost crying.

"Wait......"

"What are you waiting for?" Chen Yu shouted anxiously, "If you wait any longer, the villagers will be slaughtered." ”

"Shut up and look behind you!" Chen Yu was angry, the ghost cry was also angry, and he was even more angry than him, his wife was hunted down and killed inexplicably, and he couldn't see her for a while. In such a situation, the ghost cry is not angry, but he has been patient.

Chen Yu's recklessness lit up the anger of the ghost crying, and the original pair of narrow eyes under his hat instantly widened, and the ladybug-like eyes seemed to be burning with flames, and the surrounding cobwebs radiated, looking particularly terrifying.

Chen Yu was shocked, and when he saw the ghost crying, he couldn't help but shrink his neck when he looked like he was about to pull out a knife and kill someone at any time.

The rough voice was deliberately lowered by him, and he said cautiously: "Ghost... Oni-sama, do you have any advice? ”

"Big brother ghost, don't worry, my sister and Elder Feng are together, and they will definitely be safe, so let's get through this level first. Cai Wei comforted the ghost crying softly on the side at the same time, and finally the ghost cry subsided a little, regained his composure, his tone became calm, and said to Chen Yu: "Look behind you, you are not a small soldier now, but the commander of the pioneer battalion, don't be reckless and impulsive in doing things, after all, you have more than 100 people's lives on your body." ”

Chen Yu hurriedly smiled and said, "Yes, Lord Ghost taught me a lesson." ”

"Now you look closely. ”

The ghost cried and pointed towards the village, and Chen Yu looked at the village obediently and carefully.

"What do you see?"

"Zhou Jun is slaughtering the village?"

"Look closely. ”

Chen Yu looked at it carefully: "These Zhou troops are a little poorly equipped and have scattered discipline, so they should be nearby local troops." ”

"Look closer, and look at the villagers inside. ”

"The villagers are revolting. Chen Yu said with some confusion: "Is there something wrong?"

"No, of course not, you've seen any villager so fierce. ”

At the mention of ghost crying, Chen Yu finally knew that something was wrong.

Although these officers and soldiers of the Zhou State are not well-equipped or fully armoured, they are also regular troops, and they also have spears, big shields, bows, crossbows, and war horses.

The combat effectiveness is not as good as the first-line elite of Da Zhou, but it is still very easy to fight bandits to quell the rebellion, and it is not a weak chicken who has no blood.

But looking at them at the moment, it seems that something is very wrong.

In the face of a small village, those officers and soldiers rushed in again and again, and then were driven out by the villagers with hoes and axes, looking embarrassed.

Those terrible howls also began to change in Chen Yu's ears at this time, and the sound was not at all poignant, but like a howl of demonstration.

This is not a massacre at all, but an offensive and defensive battle with back and forth.

Looking at the size of the village, the population is only about 50 households, and the number of officers and soldiers is about 200.

The Great Zhou is not the Great Song Dynasty, although the third-line army is also weak and pitiful, but the second-line army is different, the second-line army of the Great Zhou is by no means a soft-footed shrimp, and it may be difficult to resist foreign powers, but in terms of counterinsurgency, banditry, and fighting according to the city, they are all handy, and the combat effectiveness is definitely not weak.

But now, they are fighting so hard, it is clear that there is something wrong with the villagers in the village.

"What's going on?" asked Chen Yu.

"Just go over and ask. The ghost cried, and rode his horse in that direction.

"Wait, there could be danger. Chen Yu hurriedly said.

Ghost Cry turned around and glanced at Chen Yu: "Do you think I'll be afraid?"

Chen Yu was speechless, he remembered the bravery of Ghost Cry on the battlefield, and also remembered the great achievements of Ghost Cry.

But if even the leader of the giants has been cut down, how can they be afraid of just two hundred officers and soldiers?

Yes, it was only two hundred officers and soldiers, it was not Chen Yu who swelled, but the strength of Ghost Cry that made him swell.

"Oni-sama, why don't we go together?"

"No need, it's easy to cause misunderstandings when there are many people, not to mention ......" Ghost Cry didn't say it explicitly, but his look said it all, Chen Yu felt very aggrieved, he was also a fierce man who had killed three giants, okay?

Although one is female, two are small......

Ghost Cry rode his horse towards that side, and was soon discovered by the officers and soldiers.

One of them rode a horse and led a dozen spearmen towards the ghost, stopped the ghost halfway, and asked, "Who are you and what are you here for?"

Ghost Cry was wearing luxurious clothes, which was not the point, the point was the scale armor under the big sword and the faint smell of blood on his body.

Those who can afford to wear this kind of armor, even in the army, are at least more than 100 generals. Therefore, the officer and soldier on horseback judged that this person was not an ordinary person, so his tone was calmer than usual.

"Shu Crying Ghost Crying, passing through here, saw that the situation here is a little strange, so I came to ask what happened. ”

It was the Shu army, the faces of the officers and soldiers softened a lot, if it was a year ago, he would probably be eager to beat out the other party's brains when he saw the Shu army, but now it is different, the Shu army came from afar to help them fight hard and won their respect.

Therefore, after the ghost cried to prove his identity, he said very simply: "Hey, what else can it be, those villagers are crazy!"
