Chapter 791 I'm not a saint!
The wind is as vast as the wilderness and as fast as crimson thunder. The brave soldiers lined up to reveal a flaw, but the flaw that allowed Shi Min to charge forward instinctively was naturally a real flaw!
And flaws.
In front of Shi Min, it means death!
Even if they were the most courageous warriors in the world, they were still mortals after all. How could ordinary soldiers with strong bodies stop Shi Min? In an instant, they were bleeding from all seven orifices and looked horrible, like evil spirits from the underworld. They were killed on their horses with one blow. The reason they did not fall was that they were connected by iron chains and hammers. The men could remain calm, but the horses could not. They ran around and collided with each other, and were entangled by the iron chains and hammers. Then they knelt on the ground one after another, screaming miserably, which made people feel miserable and eerie.
Shi Min was in a fierce battle with Luo's warriors, especially when the warrior in Phoenix Red Armor was bleeding and crying. He felt extremely happy. Luo You came quickly and hastily, with dozens of knights running around him. Luo Xiang saw that Shi Min's ferocity was difficult to control, so he rushed in front of Luo You and shouted loudly: "Brother, Shi Min is difficult to control, it's better to stay behind!"
Luo You had a blank expression on his face. The Luo family had records that when Lord Shenxiao was invincible, Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who were once one step away from being defeated by ten thousand enemies, survived with just a few moves. Shi Min was naturally not as good as Lord Shenxiao, but Luo You did not mention it because he was getting old. Even when he was in his prime, he was not as good as Yan Liang and Wen Chou, who were among the four pillars of Hebei.
While they were talking, Luo Xiang had already arrived in front of Shi Min. They exchanged a brief exchange of blows, but with two lightning-fast moves he knocked him off his horse. Luo You rushed over and picked him up. Brave warriors rushed over. Shi Min looked up to the sky and laughed wildly. King Zhao was actually right in front of him!
He spurred his horse to attack, determined to stab Luo You to death. Luo You and Luo Xiang waved their lances to block, their arms felt as if they were torn apart, and every blow was like being hit by a heavy stone. A thousand brave warriors had surrounded him from both sides. The head of the family personally blocked the demon. The brave warriors were extremely anxious, waving their lances, using sharp blades and arrows to eliminate the armored cavalry following Shi Min.
Shi Min knew he had been tricked, but he was skilled and daring. Seeing Luo You's fierce appearance, he thought that as long as he could capture and kill Luo You and hold his body or corpse hostage, would the brave warriors dare to shoot arrows? As long as the brave warriors did not shoot arrows, it would be impossible for a thousand people to kill him, but breaking through would be easy for me!
Is it quick to kill Luo You?
For Shi Min, it was easy. If Luo You had not wrapped his right hand on the lance with an iron chain, the lance would have slipped out of his hand in the second strike, with red blood flowing from his knuckles. Luo You and Luo Xiang fought and retreated, while Shi Min and dozens of his personal guards followed and killed them!
Blood slowly flowed from the corners of Luo You's mouth, his teeth were stained red. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of red saliva, shouting: "Surround and kill Shi Min!"
The brave warriors surrounding Luo You all dropped their lances and took an iron chain from their horses. The iron chain was very long, with slightly smaller iron hammers at both ends. It was black in color, shining with a dark metallic luster, icy cold, and looked very heavy. This was not an exaggerated meteor hammer, which could not be used on the battlefield. The brave warriors all threw the iron chain, and Luo Xiang retreated heavily with the force of the blow, and then held the lance in his right hand, pulled out one end of the iron chain with his left hand and threw it towards Shi Min.
The iron chain unfolded in the air with a clanging sound. The chain was pulled out with a force of ten thousand pounds, cutting through the void, which was extremely terrifying. The guards around Shi Min immediately rushed forward, but Luo Xiang was close, and the chain he threw still fell on Shi Min. The small hammer at one end of the chain swung instantly to form an iron ring that was entangled with the chain.
Got it!
Luo Xiang's eyes lit up, and then he felt a huge force coming from the chain, he looked up and saw that it was Shi Min. Seeing that he could not break free, he stretched out his hand to grab the chain to pull Luo Xiang over. Luo Xiang was naturally no match for Shi Min, and he staggered and was about to fall off the horse, but he was quick-eyed and quick-handed, and wrapped one end of the chain directly around the horse with his left hand.
After doing all this, Luo Xiang shouted: "Shi Min, your death is coming!"
Shi Min was horrified when he saw this. He roared in anger and spurred his horse forward, with the warhorse under him raising its front hooves high. He pulled suddenly with both hands, with veins bulging on his face, and the warhorse under Luo Xiang was actually pulled to the ground by him. Luo Xiang's feet were connected to the stirrups and were hanging directly on the ground. Shi Min suddenly rushed forward, holding a knife to cut off the horse's head to loosen the tight chain, so as to untie the chains twisted in his hands.
“Boom!”
In a flash, Luo Xiang, who was caught by the fallen horse, had no time to avoid being trampled heavily on the chest by the warhorse. When he was about to be stepped on for the second time, Luo You rode over and pulled up Luo Xiang, who was spitting blood. Luo Xiang held Luo You's hand tightly, and felt as if there was a fire burning in his chest. His whole face turned red and his whole body seemed to be falling apart.
Luo You and Luo Xiang's faces looked extremely ugly. If Luo Xiang hadn't been in good physical condition, he would have died instantly. But even if he wasn't dead now, it was unknown whether he had any internal injuries. Perhaps it was because he was unwilling to believe it. The blood in Luo Xiang's mouth kept flowing, which must have injured his internal organs!
Shi Min saw that Luo Xiang had been rescued, and looked around for a moment. The brave soldiers who were surrounding him were temporarily blocked by the armored cavalry. Although the brave soldiers were the bravest in the world, they did not have any great advantage in single combat. Instead, they were led by the children of the Luo family and had high morale, and were able to fight alone. Under the leadership of a peerless general like Shi Min, the Shi cavalry was also very strong, and there were no signs of morale collapse for the time being.
Shi Min looked at Luo You with cold eyes, with a heavy iron chain wrapped around his arm, waving his lance and saying coldly: "Master Luo, who can come to save you now?"
Luo Chengzhi and Luo Weizhi had led the remaining brave warriors to cut off Shi Min's retreat. The brave warriors charged three times regardless of casualties, cutting off Shi's army on the Yellow River and this isolated cavalry unit deep in the enemy's territory. They all shouted loudly. Luo You waved the horse spear in his hand to block Shi Min's attack and laughed coldly, "Shi Min, watch carefully. Your retreat is cut off. You will die here today."
He spat out another mouthful of blood. This sudden change made Shi Min panic for a moment, and then he said coldly: "As the old saying goes, to catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. We will capture you, the head of the family, and then we will attack you from the front and back with the majority of our troops. No matter how strong you are, are you still a heavenly soldier or a general?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a dozen brave warriors rode past on horseback. Two of them held an iron chain and rushed forward, risking being hit by Shi Min's lance and throwing the chain over. When the other one saw that he had succeeded, he immediately rode his horse to tighten the chain to slow down Shi Min's speed.
Hundreds of brave warriors took turns attacking the dozen people around Shi Min. Shi Min finally felt anxious. He looked at Luo You, who was staggering opposite him, with his knuckles completely cracked and blood even flowing down the horse spear. He looked at the blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, eyes, and nose. The blood was even no less than that of the Luo family member who was trampled by the horse, but he just didn't fall!
He knew that Luo You was the bait, a bait set up to prevent him from escaping. He admitted that the temptation of the bait was the reason why he put himself in danger. If Luo You had not been here, he would not have been able to charge into the fight with the brave warriors. He would not have been able to face the brave warriors wielding the iron chain hammer without retreating. He would not have been able to fight with Luo You here when the restraints on his body became increasingly heavy!
All this is to kill Luo You!
But Shi Min now decided to give up the feat of killing Luo You with his own hands and cutting off Luo You's head, because he didn't want to die yet, and Luo You would surely die from such a serious injury, and there was really no need for him to fight a dying man here.
Shi Min struck Luo You again, forcing him to retreat. Luo You had already moved forward instinctively, but Shi Min had already brandished his lance and led his personal guards to rush towards the brave warriors who were surrounding them, wanting to meet up with his cavalry. However, the chains on his body still bound him at this time. The brave warriors were dragged on the ground, covered in blood. The time that Luo You persisted had a great effect. Shi Min's combat power, which was the limit of the human world, was at least restricted by more than 30%. The speed with which he swung his lance was slowing down, the warhorse under his crotch began to get tired, and his momentum was decreasing. At this moment, he was no longer the strongest man who could defeat ten thousand enemies!
No matter how strong a tiger is, it will fall when facing a pack of wolves. The chains and the injuries he suffered were like bleeding Shi Min, making his figure slower and slower. The deafening shouts of killing resounded, and the brave warriors naturally had the upper hand. At the core of the battle formation, Shi Min suddenly froze in place for a moment. It turned out that there were only a few guards left around him. Two chains had fallen, but there were still several. The brave warriors were trying to dismember him from all directions, but Shi Min clenched his hands and roared loudly, and even the warhorse was pulled back. The guards around him took advantage of the loose chains and hurried forward to untie them.
Puff puff.
This was the sound of arrows piercing flesh. The brave warriors held bows and crossbows and shot arrows like rain. Shi Min finally felt the fear of death. To everyone's surprise, he actually shouted directly at Luo You: "Lord Zhao, spare my life!
I am not a Hu person, I am not a Hu person. If you are willing to spare my life, I can serve you and kill all the Hu people for you. You have seen my bravery!"
As if afraid that Luo You would not believe him, Shi Min said loudly: "My ancestors are from Wei County, Jizhou. My surname is not Shi, but Ran. My ancestors and father are officials of the Han Dynasty. I am really a Han Chinese. Living among the Hu people is really a last resort. If I can, I really want to become a Han Chinese. I will definitely become a hero of the Chinese nation who slaughters the Hu people!
I heard that the Luo clan always puts the other people first. I believe that Duke Zhao will not kill me. I am willing to swear to King Su that I will kill the Hu people all my life and I will never regret it. "
These words made the brave warrior stop shooting arrows instantly, and then turned his eyes to Luo You. Shi Min's words made Luo You a little surprised. He did not expect that this most powerful general of the Hu people was actually a Han Chinese.
In Luo You's opinion, Shi Min's face was extremely shameless. He had nothing to say about Shi Min working for the Hu people as a Han Chinese. After all, Shi Min was born among the Hu people and had never eaten the food of the Central Plains. He was raised by the Shi family, and his service to them could be regarded as being loyal to his lord and filial to his grandson. But at this critical moment of life and death, he went against the Shi family and entered Xia in order to save his life, and even threatened to counterattack the Shi tribe of the Hu people. What kind of thing was this?
If you acknowledge that you are one of the Chinese people, then working for the Hu people would be a great betrayal. If you do not acknowledge that you are one of the Chinese people, then what you are doing now is extremely ridiculous.
Luo You looked at Shi Min and said softly, "You are indeed brave and unparalleled. You are willing to swear an oath for the benefit of the Chinese people. With you as the general, we will surely win this time. What you said does make sense. The Luo family takes the world as its own responsibility and puts the Chinese people first. We are willing to give everything for it. You are right."
Shi Min's face lit up with joy when he heard this, and the brave warriors around him all looked indignant, but since it was the head of the family who was speaking, everyone secretly sang the Glory of the Xia Dynasty for thousands of years to calm themselves down, but after Luo You finished speaking a few words, he suddenly said in a stern voice: "But so what?
Look around you, how many brave warriors died tragically. Do you know that such a tragic death has only happened five times in the Luo family's 1,300 years?
Do you know how many of my nephews, uncles, and brothers are here? Do you know how many fathers of the children in Winterfell and the husbands of the women here? Do you know what they mean to me?
They are my heart, my soul, my blood, my everything!
Do you know what my brother in my arms looks like now?
He is dead!
While you were talking that bullshit, he died!
He died in my arms, because of my order, and now you want me to let you go?
Do you think of me as a saint?
I tell you, I want to tell everyone in the world, that I, Luo You, am not a saint!
I only know how to repay blood with blood, tooth for tooth, I only know how to pay with life, I only know that I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge!
Today, unless King Su issues an edict to let me let you go, even heaven cannot save you. These are my words, Luo You. Go to the underworld to say those bullshit. I will cut off your head and offer it to the brave warriors and Asang who died in the battle!
Shoot!
I will let him die with thousands of arrows piercing his heart, I will let him be torn into pieces by five horses, and then trampled into bloody mud, and his head will be made into tools. I will let him die without a burial place, and bear the infamy in the history of youth forever! "
Following Luo You's words, the brave warriors suddenly came alive and cheered loudly in unison, "Who is the real saint in this world?"
How many people in this world can truly care about the world and let go of their hatred?
There are such people in this world, such as countless holy kings in ancient times, such as Emperor Gaozu of Han, and Emperor Guangwu of Han, but Luo You is not one of them!
Shi Min didn't expect Luo You to actually want to kill him. His expression changed drastically and he yelled, "Luo..."
Countless arrows flew over, including the one shot by Luo You, which went straight to Shi Min's face, entered his mouth, exited from the back of his neck, and hit the connection between his armor and helmet heavily. The feathers at the tail were still trembling.
All of Shi Min's voice and resentment disappeared in this.
His life also passed away in the process, along with his desires, his worthless morals, and his sad life.
After Shi Min's death, the remaining armored cavalry of the Shi tribe instantly lost their fighting spirit and fled in all directions. All those who could be killed by the brave warriors were killed. In this battle, facing the three thousand brave warriors, most of the armored cavalry of the Shi tribe were completely wiped out.
Luo You coughed heavily and opened his palms. Clumps of blood fell into his palms. Clumps?
He smoothed Luo Xiang's brows and said softly, "Ah Xiang, you can rest in peace. The tribe has avenged you."
The dead Luo Xiang seemed to have heard these words, and his brows really relaxed slowly. People often say that one cannot close his eyes after death, and at this moment Luo Xiang probably had his eyes closed. Luo You's tears dripped on Luo Xiang's face.
————
Shi Min was a wolf, but he had the courage of a tiger or leopard. He was vicious and rebellious, and he killed people without thinking. He was known as a lewd and cruel person among the Hu people. When he was about to die, he abandoned benevolence and righteousness. He was raised by Shi Min, but he wanted to kill him. His disloyalty and unfilial behavior deserved to be ranked among the top three, so I record him for this. - "Characters of the Northern and Southern Dynasties·The Chapter of Evil"
