Zhao Xu was enraged and laughed loudly, "Qin Hui, this is the State of Xu. I want to see how you will kill me today. If you can't kill me, then it's your death day!"
Zhao Xu hated Qin Hui to the extreme.
Qin Hui repeatedly told the Prince of Xu that he wanted to make the fifth prince, Zhao Hong, the crown prince, completely disregarding him. He was truly despicable.
"Third Prince, if you have nothing else to do, please make way."
"Make way?" Zhao Xu sneered. "Qin Hui, I'm not giving way today. Do you dare kill the Zhao family?"
Several other spoiled young men followed Zhao Xu's lead and started shouting.
"Haha, Qin Hui, the Third Prince is a member of His Majesty's imperial family. You dare to kill a member of the imperial family? You're courting death!"
"Qin Hui, you're still unaware of how things have changed, aren't you? It's not too late to kneel down and admit your mistakes!"
...
Qin Hui raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, "Then I'll have to offend you. Guards!"
The navy personnel behind them shouted in unison, "Present!"
The scale and momentum were immense and awe-inspiring.
"Qin Hui! What do you want to do!"
"Even if you do nothing, leading troops to gather crowds in the streets and causing trouble is punishable by a month-long detention under the laws of the Song Dynasty. Of course, the laws of the Song Dynasty shall be enforced!"
Zhao Xu retorted angrily, "What a joke! This is the State of Xu, not the Great Song! It has no place under the jurisdiction of the Great Song's laws!"
Qin Hui looked at Zhao Xu with pity, thinking, "He's truly hopelessly stupid."
"Did Prince Xu tell you this?"
"So what if it is, and so what if it isn't?"
Qin Hui smiled and said gently, "Nothing much, I was just asking if it was Prince Xu who told you?"
"yes!"
"Good, very good." Qin Hui was overjoyed. Xu Wang Zhao Di had always been disobedient, and Qin Hui had long been thinking of taking the opportunity to replace him.
After all, they were members of the imperial family; they couldn't be killed or beaten. Even Qin Hui found it difficult to handle.
Now look what's happened! A self-important idiot has come up to his death, and it's hard for him not to accept him.
"You all heard that, right? Zhao Xu said that the State of Xu does not abide by the laws of the Great Song Dynasty. This was taught to him by the King of Xu."
Wenruo and the other naval personnel said, "We all heard that!"
Qin Hui sighed as if he had suddenly struck gold, feeling incredibly relieved, and said, "Alright, capture Zhao Xu, and let's go see Prince Xu."
Zhao Xu was furious: "Who dares!"
Wenruo, however, ignored Zhao Xu's anger and said, "Did you all hear that? Seize Zhao Xu, and anyone else who dares to resist, kill them without mercy!"
The navy quickly loaded their muskets, and in the blink of an eye, more than a dozen muskets were aimed at the Xu soldiers surrounding Zhao Xu.
There were also a dozen or so knives drawn from their sheaths, gleaming coldly in the sunlight.
Zhao Xu's face twitched: "Qin Hui, do you dare kill me! You don't dare! Listen up, all of you, capture Qin Hui, and I will reward you handsomely!"
His soldiers had barely moved when a shot rang out, hitting one soldier in the head, striking his right eyebrow bone. Blood splattered, and he screamed before collapsing dead.
This first shot was followed by more than a dozen others.
The distance is only a few meters, the hit rate is extremely high, and the lethality is also extremely high.
In an instant, about ten people collapsed.
As soon as he fell to the ground, the navy officer who had drawn his sword rushed forward.
One of the spoiled young men following Zhao Xu was slightly taken aback. Before he could dodge, a navy officer charging towards him slashed him on the forehead with a knife.
The knife was a horse-slaying sword, which arced through the air and swung over as if it could cleave mountains and rocks.
With a snap, the knife tore open the skull, and blood and brain matter splattered out, causing the man to let out an extremely agonizing scream.
But his mouth was instantly ripped open, and his screams were drowned out.
The sight of a person being cleaved in two is incredibly powerful.
Others wanted to move, but their reactions were nowhere near as swift as those of the disciplined Song army.
Several Song soldiers moved with lightning speed, one slashing horizontally, another chopping vertically, one beheading, and another thrusting.
The blade is so sharp it can cut through iron like mud.
Moreover, it's cut into human flesh and bones as easily as cutting into tofu.
Hot, fresh blood gushed out, splashing in the air, and he died on the spot.
People who were just standing there perfectly fine a moment ago have now been cut in half at the waist, had their heads chopped off, and had their hearts pierced.
People passing by quickly moved away, not daring to stay there.
Zhao Xu was so frightened that he stood frozen in place, not daring to move an inch.
But no one dared to touch him, after all, he was a member of the royal family, with royal blood flowing through his veins.
Even if someone commits a capital crime, it is His Majesty the Emperor who will decide the outcome.
No one dared to risk their life to touch him.
What about the musketeers?
After firing the first shot, the person behind suddenly lunged forward, the bullet from the chamber spraying out and smashing the face of the person opposite into a bloody mess.
Qin Hui and Wen Ruo stood there.
Before long, all the soldiers from the Xu Kingdom were wiped out.
The military strength of the vassal states was limited, and coupled with their poor equipment and lack of training, they were no match for the Song army, just like rabbits in front of a hunter.
The playboys who followed Zhao Xu were no ordinary people; they were all nobles from the Xu state, whose families owned land and held official positions in the court.
Otherwise, how could Zhao and Xu have gotten together?
But today, they are killed without mercy, their lives cheaper than roadside weeds.
Not for any other reason than that they dared to bring troops only as special envoys of His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty.
Qin Hui was a narrow-minded person who always sought revenge.
This man never lets things linger overnight, not even murder.
After killing the people, Qin Hui was still not satisfied. He said to Wen Ruo beside him, "Quickly assemble the First Army of the Fifth Legion of the Song Dynasty Navy and enter the city. Today, someone in Xu Kingdom is going to rebel. You must protect the King of Xu."
