Chapter 60 Slaughter!
It's somewhat cruel to make these women and children recall these events, but the news we receive is optimistic!
The number of people who can actually participate in the battle is not as many as the initial number they received!
Upon hearing this news, the Wei family soldiers who were standing guard realized in their hearts that they had been careless and hurried back to report.
They used to directly count the number of all enemy troops on the battlefield, without distinguishing between men, women, and children.
Wei Dongzhu's revised strategy was quickly sent over.
"Have twenty men disguised as refugees, infiltrate the area, and rescue the hostages first!"
"If the refugees inside hide the hostages, those remaining outside will split into two teams: one team will work with those inside to rescue the hostages!"
"If the refugees don't hide hostages, then we'll wait for our people to rescue them, and then we'll rush in and attack from the inside!"
Wei Jiajun had barely finished speaking when the prisoner refuted his statement.
"No, no, we're not like you. We don't have your skills. The refugees inside are so fierce, going in would be suicide!"
"Yes, yes, I still think we need to bring more people out; there are still too many people inside. Even women and children can hurt quite a bit if they start hitting someone!"
The person who spoke was being stared at.
"Why are you looking at me? It hurts when a woman hits you. Haven't any of you ever been hit by your own wives?"
After a suffocating silence, the person who had spoken was pushed to the very back.
He thinks everyone's wife is like his!
However, Madam Song is quite fierce. If there were a few more like her, it would be troublesome!
Wei's army was surprised that the young general's plan was so easily overturned, and they quickly returned.
Before they could think for long, another twenty-odd people came out.
"Don't separate, hold your weapons tight!"
"Could it be ghosts?"
"Pah! Don't spout nonsense in broad daylight!"
After the twenty men had gone some distance, they were immediately divided up by the prisoners hiding nearby, who also took their weapons!
Some people didn't dare to take it and kept looking at Liu Laohu.
"What time is it? Saving your life is the most important thing!"
With Liu Laohu's words, the men holding knives felt reassured and their hands became steady.
While the people outside were discussing their plans and arguing endlessly, Shen Lanxi had already sneaked into the house.
Like wolves entering a flock of sheep, wielding two knives, they treat human life like two-legged sheep. Today, she will let them taste what it's like to be treated like sheep and slaughtered!
Shen Lanxi's swordsmanship was as fast as lightning and as powerful as a prairie fire. Facing these people, she didn't want them to die too easily, so when she made her moves, she didn't deliberately target their vital points.
Just keep hacking away!
Anyone who confronts her is doomed; they are either cut to the bone, have their arms blown off, or are torn to pieces!
This is not killing!
It's a massacre!
Screams erupted instantly. The refugees had never seen such a killing method before. They were psychologically defeated and too scared to even rush forward. It was as if they had seen some terrifying weapon of mass destruction. They turned around and fled in panic!
"Run! Murder!"
Shen Lanxi sneered. She killed people? Then what were they? Just someone to tickle?
In no time, the ground was covered with refugees. Some were clutching their severed arms and wailing in pain, while others were pressing on their wounds to try and slow the bleeding!
They have all lost their fighting ability!
The wives and children of the refugees who were left behind, seeing that things were not going well, abandoned their children and turned to flee for their lives!
Shen Lanxi coldly watched their backs, then kicked the fire, overturning the bubbling pot!
People outside heard the screams and quickly hid.
"What happened?"
"Could it be that someone else has been murdered inside?"
Before they could guess for long, they saw the refugees fleeing in panic!
All they're thinking about right now is: What kind of bullshit scheme is this? Is it even necessary now?
"Kill these bastards!"
"Charge!"
With a shout, Liu Laohu charged forward, brandishing his broadsword, followed by the other squads who jumped out to intercept him.
In the blink of an eye, all the refugees who had run over here were wiped out.
The refugees who fled in another direction were dealt with by Wei's army.
After the war subsided, everyone was covered in the blood of the refugees.
The prisoners' hands were trembling from exhaustion. They weren't thinking about the fear of killing, but rather excitement and disbelief.
So many people, and they really did it!
Liu Yanhui knew that if these people hadn't panicked and lost their fighting spirit, they wouldn't have been able to succeed so easily!
What happened inside?
The prisoners were exhausted, but they dared not rest. If they hesitated even a moment, the good stuff would be taken away.
Get up quickly and start searching for things!
Wei's men pushed Wei Dongzhu into the house. They were also curious about what terrifying thing had happened inside that had frightened the vicious refugees so much!
Liu Yanhui and Liu Laohu also hurried inside to take a look!
Inside, only trembling villagers, wailing children, blood everywhere, and refugees who were not yet dead remained!
Liu Laohu asked dryly, "Who did it?"
Half a day passed and no one answered!
"What do we do next?" Liu Laohu asked, wiping his face, his voice lacking confidence.
Wei's men pushed Wei Dong away.
Liu Yan met Liu Laohu's expectant gaze and said, "Brother Liu, you're the only one here who works for the government. You're the boss, and we'll all listen to you!"
Liu Laohu blinked: He's the boss? He feels like he's the nobody here!
"Alright, you can go help with the cleaning too!"
Liu Yanhui hurriedly ran outside, not to clean, but to find Shen Lanxi!
There was no one else here. With such formidable combat power, he couldn't think of anyone else but Shen Lanxi!
"Young master, everyone has been rescued. All the male refugees have been dealt with. But what about the female refugees and the children?"
Shen Lanxi: "Hand it over to the villagers to deal with!"
Liu Yan raised an eyebrow; he had guessed correctly!
"Have people search the village and find the water source!"
"yes!"
After finishing his business in the village, Liu Laohu immediately went to find Shen Lanxi.
“They killed all the adult men in the village. Only the women and children are left. If they stay here, they certainly won’t live long!”
Putting aside food and water, there are definitely other refugees outside. If they encounter more refugees, these people will only survive a few more days before their fate is the same as before—becoming food for other refugees!
Tell me what's on your mind!
Liu Laohu glanced at her cautiously: "Could we bring them along?"
Shen Lanxi: "You heard about Moon Lake from Liu Yanhui?"
Liu Laohu lowered his head in embarrassment.
The Shen family's greatest fortune in this exile was encountering officials like Liu Laohu, who still possessed kindness and a sense of justice.
"You're the yamen runner, you're the boss here, everyone listens to you!"
Liu Laohu twitched his lips. "Stop saying that, I'm too embarrassed to even lift my face!"
