Chu Tian forcefully spat out the long grass in his mouth. He looked at the chaotic battlefield dozens of miles away and sneered, "Great, let them expend some energy first. When they are almost done fighting during the day, we will have the chance to strike at night."
There was a layer of gray light in Chu Tian's eyes, and the light of the stone lamp in the spiritual orifice between his eyebrows suddenly lit up.
So many private soldiers of wealthy families, so many wild warriors.
They would certainly consume most of their physical and mental strength if they attacked Chujiabao during the day. At night, they would definitely fall asleep. For Chu Tian, who practiced the Great Dream Divine Canon, they had no power to resist and were the best targets for dream planting.
Last night, he just planted dream seeds in the soul fields of thousands of people in Chujiabao, and his magic power increased so much.
If only I could plant the seeds of dreams in all the people in front of me!
Chu Tian smiled gently and turned his head to look at the city of Qizhou where fireworks were rising into the sky.
The city of Qizhou has fallen into the hands of the remnant tribe of the wild. The city is in chaos, and it seems that Ying Xiu'er has not sent anyone to maintain law and order.
Let there be chaos, let there be chaos, the more chaotic the better. When Yizhou City has been almost completely destroyed by those wild surviving tribes, if Chu Tian can take back Yizhou City with his brothers, it will show their means and their merits!
"We are just spies, not an army marching to fight. There are tens of thousands of people in this large-scale battle. I can't let my brothers risk their lives in vain!"
Chu Tian looked back at the more than a hundred strong men standing behind him.
These killer embryos were all brothers who had survived the training with Chu Tian in the charity hall of Dayu Temple. Some of them had been killed over the years, and Chu Tian didn't want them to be killed easily.
While pondering the chaos before him, Chu Tian suddenly saw birds in the woods to the west startled and fly into the sky, the trees shaking, smoke and dust rising into the sky, and he could faintly hear the crazy howling sounds even from a distance of dozens of miles.
The four cavalry units of the Chu family slowly retreated to a distance and did not enter the city.
As a highly mobile cavalry, it would be foolish to enter the city and defend it. The 5,000-plus cavalrymen left outside the Chu Family Fort were a huge threat to the mixed army outside the city, like a dagger at their backs, ready to give the enemy a fatal blow at any time.
Thousands of wild warriors riding on colorful leopards rushed out, trying to catch up with the retreating Chu cavalry.
But they were not careful, and these wild warriors ran a little closer to Chujiabao, less than a hundred feet away from the city wall. There was a bang sound on the wall of Chujiabao, and hundreds of heavy crossbows with pure metal structures suddenly flipped out, accompanied by the terrible sound of bowstrings bouncing. Thousands of crossbow arrows like small gun barrels flew out and covered these colorful leopard cavalry.
More than two hundred wild warriors were nailed to the ground by eight-foot-long pure steel crossbow arrows.
Many of the wild warriors were very tenacious and survived after being pierced through the abdomen, thighs, and chest by crossbow arrows. They struggled and screamed with all their might, and their roars and cries of pain made the wild elders who were commanding the attack in the rear so angry that they cursed loudly.
The wild warriors who were chasing the Chu cavalry hurriedly turned their mounts around and returned to their team, no longer willing to get close to the Chu Family Castle.
They have the private soldiers of thirty-two wealthy families as cannon fodder, they have the guard teams of Minzhou and Mangzhou as cannon fodder, and they have also captured so many leading figures in the three states, and the guards and private soldiers belonging to these people's families will become their cannon fodder.
It would be enough to use these cannon fodder to attack Chujiabao. Why should they send their own people to die?
Two or three thousand corpses were left on the battlefield, and the huge battlefield became quiet for a while.
More than 2,000 cavalrymen riding on large leopards suddenly rushed out of the wild main formation, whistling all the way towards the west where the trees were shaking and the smoke and dust were roaring. They rushed at a very fast speed, and after a quarter of an hour, Chu Tian could no longer see their figures.
The mixed army began to set up camp in the south of Chujiabao, digging trenches and setting up camps.
Chu Tian stood up and looked quietly at the forest in the west.
Time passed by minute by minute, and the sun moved inch by inch toward the west. When the golden sunlight gradually turned red, and only half of the sun's face was hanging on the western hilltop, the sunset filled the sky, and the blood-red light spread across the entire earth like water.
More than two thousand Wild Knights laughed happily and whistled sharply as they turned around.
Behind them was a huge crowd of people, like a black tide. All of them were naked, and many of them were just running naked, carrying all kinds of strange tools.
Even from a long distance, Chu Tian could feel the tremendous resentment emanating from this endless crowd.
"This is the Chu family's mining slave!" Aque, who was standing under the big rock where Chu Tian was and also squinting his eyes to look into the distance, suddenly said.
Ah Que has alien blood, and his eyes have amazing vision. At a distance of dozens of miles, in clear weather and dust-free air, Chu Tian could only see the general movements in the hilly area south of Chujiabao.
But Aque could clearly see many details on the battlefield. When the weather conditions were ideal, Aque could even see the general movements of the soldiers on the battlefield and distinguish their blurry facial features.
So even though the light was dim at dusk, Aque could still tell that those people were miners from the Chu Mine!
They were half-naked, skinny, and some were as skinny as skeletons. These people were the miners of the Chu family. The metal tools in their hands were their mining tools.
Aque also saw that many miners had bloody human heads hanging on straw ropes around their waists!
"When Chujiabao was attacked, Chu Jie ordered the mine guards to be withdrawn from the nearest mines to defend Chujiabao, but he ignored the torture that the miners in those mines suffered on a daily basis. That was a deadly volcano!"
Chu Tian said slowly: "Now that the volcano has erupted, these miners should be the miners of the largest cold iron mine in the western mountains of the Chu family, right?"
The heads hung on the waists of the miners must be those of the unlucky guards and mine managers of the Chu family who stayed behind in the mine!
The roar was so deafening that it could be heard clearly from dozens of miles away.
Chu Tian saw a group of people coming out of the Manghuang main camp to meet these miners. No one knew what the two sides said, but within a few words, the miners started to roar and clamor like crazy, and rushed towards the Chu Family Castle.
There are at least a hundred thousand miners charging forward in a black mass!
They were half-naked, skinny, without any armor, and had only simple tools such as hoes and shovels in their hands.
Facing the heavily defended Chu Family Castle, the frenzied miners rushed forward without fear. They cursed and greeted the Chu family's eighteen generations of ancestors, and rushed to the Chu family's moat in a mighty force.
The crazy miners jumped into the fast-flowing moat without hesitation and swam hard towards the city wall.
Another gong sounded, and countless archers stood up on the wall of Chujiabao. They looked expressionlessly at the frantic, endless miners below, drew their strong bows, and a black rain of arrows poured down.
Large groups of miners were pierced through the bodies by arrows. Their skinny bodies could not withstand the arrows shot from strong bows. One arrow could easily penetrate the bodies of three or four of them before exhausting all their strength.
The moat instantly turned blood red, but the miners continued to rush towards the wall of Chujiabao without fear.
Arrows rained down continuously, and thousands of lucky miners had already rushed to the foot of the city wall and climbed up the embankment of the moat.
