"Haha, a threat?"
"How can this be called a threat?"
For a brief moment, Commander Zhang's face contorted, but he quickly regained his composure and laughed sarcastically: "I just wanted to have a talk with you!"
“Yun Hui and this group of people have been following you for quite some time now.”
"Even knowing the current situation, they still risked their lives to follow you. Don't you claim to cherish talent the most? What? Is it just talk? You don't even dare to come down to the city and talk to me?"
"Or are you saying that you don't care about the lives of Yun Hui and these more than ten thousand prisoners at all!"
At this point, Commander Zhang gave a wink to General Wei, who was not far away.
General Wei immediately raised his sword and brought it down!
Pfft!
Pfft!
Pfft!
He stabbed three prisoners to death.
Seeing this bloody scene, Yun Hui's eyes turned bloodshot, and he roared with heart-wrenching fury, "You surnamed Wei!! If you have the guts, kill me! Kill me then! Come at me!"
"General Zhou, ignore this beast's intentions!"
"You don't need to worry about me... I deserve to die. It's because I didn't trust you enough back then that I ended up like this."
Commander Zhang's eyes darkened, and he raised his hand to slap Yun Hui hard across the face, threatening, "Shut up! If you dare to say another word, I will order the killing of another hundred of your men."
Yun Hui trembled with rage. This dignified man, standing seven feet tall, was so grief-stricken and regretful that he shed tears.
Zhou Zhenguang, standing atop the city wall, frowned.
He gave Yun Hui a deep look, and finally made a gesture to the Zhou family's soldiers. In the end, he couldn't bear to watch more than 10,000 prisoners die before his eyes.
soon!
Zhou Zhenguang, his generals and confidants, the five hundred archers on the high ground, and the ninety thousand soldiers in the rear all appeared together.
A large and imposing group of people, no longer hiding in secluded high places, no longer with walls and eaves as cover, stood majestically in front of Commander Zhang.
Commander Zhang looked at the Zhou family members standing opposite him.
The string that had been taut in my mind snapped with a bang!
General Wei stared intently at the Zhou family soldiers' cotton-padded coats, boots, hats, and their ruddy, glowing faces—clearly, they were overly greasy.
And look at the imperial soldiers!
Although the imperial court provided rice and grain, they had no oil or meat to eat. They ate only steamed buns and dry rice every day. Over time, their complexions turned yellow and they became dehydrated, with dry and dull lips.
In comparison, the morale of Zhou's soldiers was three times higher!
this? ? ?
This is completely different from what I imagined!
"How could this be!" Commander Zhang exclaimed in astonishment, his eyes widening as he looked sharply at General Wei.
General Wei stammered in disbelief, “Commander, they…they are wearing cotton-padded coats! How is that possible? And the group at the very front must weigh nearly a hundred kilograms!”
"How could someone grow so strong without food!"
"Where did all this winter supplies come from?! This isn't right, this isn't right..."
Seeing that General Wei couldn't give a clear explanation, Commander Zhang was so angry that his internal organs were throbbing.
All official roads were blocked.
All the surrounding towns were heavily guarded.
