Chapter 58: Crazy Miner 1



"Huha", "Huha", "Huha"!

The roar was like thunder, reaching the sky, startling the mountains and forests within a hundred miles, and countless birds and beasts flew away in panic. Smoke and dust filled the sky, and the earthquake shook the earth. The tragic evil spirit condensed into clouds, and the true form of the killing array was faintly emerging from the evil spirit.

The thousand-foot-high cliff was as smooth as a mirror and looked as if it had been cut by a knife. Chu Tian and his companions stood on the edge of the cliff, looking at the Chu Family Fortress dozens of miles away.

There was no grass growing on the cliff, and the dark rocks did not sparkle in the sunlight, which was so dark that it made people feel uneasy. Below the cliff was an endless dense black pine forest. Countless birds, startled by the war cry, circled in the sky above the dense forest, making disturbing sounds.

Dozens of miles away, at the edge of the dense forest, at the foot of the hillside of the northwestern mountains, the Chu Family Fort, which stretches for more than ten miles, is crawling on the ground like a monster.

To the south of Chujiabao, on a gently sloping hilly area, large groups of soldiers and horses were roaring loudly and carrying various siege equipment as they slowly moved towards Chujiabao.

On the left and right wings, there were groups of naturalized natives and wild warriors, who lagged far behind, mostly acting as supervisors. In the middle, on a battle line as wide as ten miles, the private armies of the thirty-two wealthy families of the Great Jin were slowly approaching the Chu Family Fort with low morale.

Two wooden watchtowers rolled on wheels and slowly moved towards Chujiabao.

On the top of the two watchtowers, Zhu Jie and Mo Yu, with embarrassed faces, stood on the small platforms on the watchtowers respectively. They were still limp and powerless, and were held hostage by the wild warriors beside them. People from all directions could clearly see their distorted faces.

The two men couldn't help but look unhappy. In order to prevent the two governors from causing trouble for them, the elders of the Manghuang tribe beside Ying Xiu'er actually stuffed several of the most vicious poisonous snakes in the Manghuang mountains into their crotches.

A foot long, slippery and cold venomous snake was crawling slowly around the base of their thighs, and the feeling of close contact with the vital parts of the two governors' bodies was so great that Zhu Jie and Mo Yu would have cried long ago if it weren't for their status.

**Once bitten by these vicious reptiles, even if they take the antidote in time, some of their functions as men will be completely lost, right?

Zhu Jie and Mo Yu looked at the sky with tears in their eyes. It was a clear sky, bright day, and a bright world. How could they have fallen into such a situation?

The soldiers from Minzhou and Mangzhou who escorted the two men to Qizhou also had low morale. They mixed in with the private soldiers of the thirty-two wealthy families, formed a loose line of soldiers, and stretched out a battle line ten miles wide from east to west, stretching for several miles from front to back, and marched slowly and weakly towards Chujiabao.

Zhu Jie and Mo Yu's trusted generals roared wildly behind these soldiers in frustration and whipped these soldiers who had no intention of fighting with whips.

The wealth and glory of these generals all depend on the two governors, and they dare not let them make any mistakes.

Ying Xiuer told them that as long as they captured Chujiabao and slaughtered all the people of the Chu family, Zhu Jie and Mo Yu could leave safely. Although the generals of Minzhou and Mangzhou did not believe Ying Xiuer's words, what else could they do?

The army moved slowly, especially these mixed troops with no fighting spirit and morale, who could not even move two miles in an hour.

When Chu Tian and his companions were standing on the top of the cliff and looking out, they saw that the mixed army was still seven or eight miles away from Chujiabao, when suddenly a large group of elite troops came roaring in from all directions.

Among them, more than a dozen soldiers wearing soft armor and running on foot shouted loudly, like a whirlwind, and quickly arrived at the gate of Chujiabao. The gate of Chujiabao was opened, and these dozen soldiers with a total number of more than 50,000 quickly entered the city.

The other four cavalry units, riding fast horses and holding bows, with a total of over 5,000 cavalrymen, were running back and forth, keeping a distance of about 100 feet from the mixed army. They were shooting with their bows, and a large rain of arrows was showered down, making the vanguard of the mixed army, a team of 10,000 people, look very embarrassed.

Arrows rained down raging, and the vanguard team of 10,000 people composed of private soldiers of the two wealthy families, Li and Zhao, had three to five hundred of them shot dead, and more than a thousand were injured. With their morale completely gone, they turned around and left with a shout. More than a thousand people fled like frightened wild boars, and immediately rushed to pieces the teams behind them.

The wild warriors on the left and right wings, who were like a supervisory team, let out a long "yo yo" howl, and a team of cavalry riding on colorful leopards came roaring, waving the eight-sided heavy swords in their hands, and rolled up a large blood mist in the chaotic fleeing soldiers.

Heads were rolling and screams were heard. The lower-ranking officers of the Li and Zhao clans led their soldiers to kneel down and beg for mercy or to fight back.

The four cavalry units of the Chu family took advantage of the situation and charged forward. They were well-trained and well-equipped, with two cavalry units covering them on the left and right. Arrows rained down continuously, and the other two cavalry units drew out their long and narrow curved sabers and swept past the last two thousand-man teams as fast as a whirlwind.

In just one encounter, more than two thousand heads were chopped off by the sharp and narrow sabers. A large blood mist rose, and a large hill was dyed red by the hot blood spurting from the necks.

The more chaotic the mixed army's formation became, the more the wild warriors riding on the colorful leopards hacked and killed frantically, but they were unable to stop the chaos in the large group of people for a while.

It would be fine if the managers of wealthy families such as Li Zheng and Zhao Xing were present. With their status and prestige, they would be enough to intimidate these private soldiers.

However, Chu Tian killed more than a dozen managers of wealthy families, and the managers of two wealthy families were all killed by him, and the people responsible could not be found at all. The private army teams of these two wealthy families were completely disbanded.

All other managers of wealthy families were detained by Ying Xiu'er, and those responsible for commanding these private armies were only the private army generals of the major wealthy families!

However, these private soldiers of wealthy families are not real armies, and the status of those private army generals is not high in the hearts of the private soldiers. Instead, the managers who pay them salaries and give them benefits on a daily basis are more prestigious.

The soldiers have no morale, the generals are incompetent, and the private armies of the thirty-two wealthy families look powerful, but their actual combat effectiveness is close to zero.

In the chaos, the soldiers of Minzhou and Mangzhou rushed out under the rebuke of their own captains. They did not engage the two charging Chu cavalry, but just shot arrows from a distance to stop them. After a barrage of arrows, the two Chu private soldiers left behind dozens of soldiers who were hit by arrows and fell off their horses, whistling all the way.

At the top of the cliff, Chu Tian squatted steadily on a large rock shaped like a vulture, holding a long grass in his mouth and sneering mockingly.

"I heard from Lu Gu that the princes and nobles of Dajin have become more and more extravagant and extravagant in recent years. They only know how to talk and feast all day long, but they are becoming more and more incompetent. Seeing them today, it is indeed true."

"These idiots, what do they think of opening up a new state?"

"Do they think that they can easily conquer the Hundred Thousand Wilds and establish a new state by just sending a bunch of rabble over?"

"The Ten Thousand Wilds will eat people. If you mess around, people will die."
