Xu Rao was quite surprised upon hearing this and said, "There really is someone talented. What do we do now?"
Xu Di said, "This is made of wood, so it's afraid of fire. The reason they're putting civilians in front of them is because they're afraid we'll use fire. Now that things have come to this, we have no other choice but to use fire."
Xu Rao said, "But what about the ordinary people?"
Xu Di said, "When they get close, let them run straight to the base of the city wall. At that time, they won't shoot arrows this way anymore. We'll use this time to pour crude oil on them and set them on fire!"
Xu Rao said, "What if some Northern Di soldiers come up?"
Xu Di said, "Now that we're on our own turf, aren't we the ones in charge? Even if we want to do something now, we can't hold our heads high. Have them put away all the arrows that have been shot in, and save them for when we need them later."
Xu Rao quickly ordered people to transport crude oil from the warehouse to this side in wooden barrels, organized people to transport the wounded down, and there were special people responsible for treating the wounded. He also arranged for people to pick up the arrows that had fallen into the city.
It was the same loud voice from yesterday, holding that megaphone, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Fellow villagers, run forward as fast as you can! Hide under the city wall! Hurry up!" He shouted it over and over again, and some villagers did run forward after hearing it, but unfortunately, as soon as they ran, arrows followed and shot into their bodies.
Then the loud voice shouted, "Don't run straight ahead, run in a curve, don't run in a straight line!"
Some people heard this and ran forward in a zigzag pattern, followed by a hail of arrows like locusts, and then bursts of screams.
This is a ruthless massacre of unarmed people. For their ambitions of aggression, they use these innocent lives to fill the insatiable greed of their aggression. These innocent people sacrificed their precious lives in vain for their ambitions.
Who isn't born of parents? Who doesn't have brothers and children? How can one bear to see one's own compatriots being slaughtered right before one's eyes?
The people on the city wall watched with bloodshot eyes, but they didn't know what they could do. Even if they shot arrows down, they would still get hurt if they stuck their heads out.
The horrific scene made Xu Di bite his lips until they bled, but he really had no way to stop such a brutal massacre. He wanted nothing more than to slaughter all the invaders who had invaded his country.
