Chapter 221: Greed Becomes a Demon
The road was blocked, and the soldiers could not enter in formation.
Therefore, Devil May Cry decides to make a move.
When the bell rang, the soldiers heard the bell, their hearts were settled, and they moved out of the way to both sides.
Walking into the house through the ruins, as soon as he walked in, an iron chain hit him.
The ghost cried without dodging or dodging, and slashed with his sword, and the knife hit the head of the chain, and the chain suddenly lost control and fell weakly to the front.
At this time, the county magistrate was embarrassed. The chain snaked on the ground like a dead snake, which just made it difficult for him to pull the chain back for a while.
And taking advantage of this opportunity, Ghost Cry strode forward and walked straight towards the county magistrate.
"Get out!" the prefectural commander roared, simply throwing away the chain, and slamming his fist towards the door of the ghost crying.
Ghost Cry flashed sideways, and when the punch was about to run out, he cut off the arm of the county magistrate.
The county magistrate screamed and staggered back, fell to the ground, and hit a box behind him, he turned around and opened the box, took out a handful of jewelry from it, and stuffed it into his mouth, even though he kept muttering in his mouth at this time: "It's all the official's, it's all the official's......"
As he swallowed the jewelry, the wounds on his body were healing rapidly.
However, it was accompanied by a knife that cut through the flesh and blood vessels, passed through the cervical vertebrae, and cut the throat. A ring of blood bloomed around the prefectural commander's neck, and his head fell into the box with a grunt, and the blood gushing out of it stained the treasure in the box red. The wounds on his body, which were rapidly healing, stopped healing.
"Come in!" the ghost cried.
Everyone walked in, searched for it, and found a lot of food.
This granary contains not only grain, but also a lot of silk and satin, gold and silver jewelry, calligraphy, painting and antiques.
It seems that the magistrate was greedy and moved many things that he thought were precious. And not only did he move in, but these things were well protected by him.
He killed all the rats who stole the grain and hung them on the eaves to form a string. The worms were also carefully caught by him and filled his stomach. The calligraphy, paintings, and antiques are spotless, and the gold, silver and jewelry are neatly placed in the box, making it very convenient for the soldiers to move.
Everyone was smiling, and the oppressive atmosphere of the past few days dissipated in an instant.
Liu Dalong's heart was excited, the food ensured that the Shu army had no worries in recent days, and the gold, silver and jewelry made the soldiers rejuvenate again.
The reason why the soldiers of the Shu army are willing to go on an expedition here is not only for the sake of righteousness, but also for the sake of a future and change their destiny.
These gold, silver and jewelry, they can't buy anything now, but as long as they can bring them back, it will be a lifetime of wealth and worry-free, and even blessing future generations.
Returning to the inn of the temporary garrison, Liu Dalong sent the gold and silver jewelry he had gathered down, and immediately, the eyes of the lifeless soldiers all appeared with golden light.
At this moment, their hearts were full of energy, and the rift between them disappeared without a trace. Now they have only one thought, to go home with their treasure.
Whoever dares to stop will be killed, and at this moment, they are united.
On April 12, the wind and sun were beautiful in Heyin County.
Outside the county seat, the camp of Dazhou is rigorous, the tents are neat, and the layers are clear.
The large army formed a large and small phalanx outside the camp, and slowly advanced towards this side with neat steps. For a time, the drums were like thunder, the sand and dust were rolling, the flags covered the sun, the spears were like forests, and the big shields were like walls.
The huge engineering equipment was pushed towards the city wall by a naked half-naked wrestler, like a prostrate beast.
Towering trebuchets stood in a row like tall giants, staring at the city walls, and below, the craftsmen who accompanied the army were busy.
It's only been a few days, and the eldest prince's eyes are bloodshot.
The city wall of the county town is low, and the city is attacked day after day in the Great Zhou, so that the city wall is scorched under the fire of war, and the rammed earth is loose, so that it collapses in many places.
This is also the defender is the elite of the Qin army, and if it were replaced by any other army, it would be possible that this county town would have been captured.
To this day, the eldest prince still doesn't understand what went wrong, so that Da Zhou suddenly went crazy and generally dispatched the army that was originally guarding the border pass to attack him.
Looking at this posture, it is clear that he wants his life.
"Look, eldest prince?" exclaimed one of the generals.
The eldest prince looked at it, and his heart suddenly tightened, and he gasped: "Ma is sick, why is he here?"
Outside the city, the drums stopped, and the soldiers also stopped, and the darkness was overwhelming, like a cloud in the sky.
In front of the battle, a dragon flag was waved in the wind, and the Imperial Forest Army trampled on the ground on horseback, showing off its might. And the leader, the arrogant golden armor is particularly dazzling, and he can't wait to tell everyone that as long as he cuts off a certain head, he will not only be able to win the battle, but also be able to use this merit to be the marquis and worship the prime minister, so that the blades in the hands of the soldiers of the Qin army are ready to move.
On the city wall, the archers of the Qin army set up bows and crossbows, and the eldest prince hurriedly summoned the herald and ordered him to go down, not to release arrows, and to obey all orders.
The bravado of the Imperial Guards suddenly stopped, leaving only the horses to go to the side of the city wall alone.
The eldest prince looked shocked and thought: Is this crazy when Ma Quai?
Although the gold armor of Ma Quai's body is a treasure armor and can be invulnerable, this guy has never worn it on the battlefield, but wears it when he goes out on the battlefield and triumphs, and he usually wears it, and the appearance is not much different from the soldiers around him, which can be said to be very low-key.
But now, this guy not only wore this dazzling golden armor on the battlefield, but also walked to the city wall in a big way, except that he was crazy, and the eldest prince couldn't imagine any other reason.
He took a deep breath, turned to the herald, and said, "Tell me to go down and get the bed crossbow ready." ”
Regardless of whether Ma Qu is sick or not, as long as he dares to continue to look for death like this, he dares to shoot him.
A total of four bed crossbows were ready, and the archers silently took out the arrows, and the eldest prince stared closely at the horse and got sick a little closer, secretly calculating the distance.
Inside and outside the city, there was silence.
"Kill!" the eldest prince suddenly shouted.
"Kill!" all the soldiers responded in unison.
"Kill!" Lux raised the wooden hammer, his muscles bulging, and he slammed down.
The sudden outburst of shouting and killing startled the horse to stand up under the crotch, and the huge arrows shot from the four bed crossbows passed by in an instant, making a violent sound like tearing cloth.
The archers raised their crossbows in unison and shot their arrows with red eyes. On Da Zhou's side, there was a panicked cry, and Ma Quzhi raised his head, and the arrows that rained down were reflected in his pupils.
Bloodlight blooms!
The horses screamed and neighed.
A gold-armored horse fell to the ground, and a spear-like crossbow arrow struck him accurately.
Then, in an instant, he and his horse were covered in a rain of arrows.
"Win!" Qin Jun thought excitedly.
"It's over. On the side of the Zhou army, their faces were as white as paper, they never thought that their monarch would suddenly become so brainless, they didn't stop it, but they couldn't stop it at all.
At this moment, the morale of the Great Qin soldiers was like a rainbow, and the Great Zhou soldiers were in a trance.
