Just as Qin Feng was re-formulating the siege strategy to ensure the safety of the people, a light cavalry force composed of 300 people was quietly heading towards Datian Village.
The person leading the team is wearing good cavalry armor, carrying a bow and arrow, and his eyes are like a torch.
This person is none other than Wu Heli who escaped from Qin Feng in Ming County!
After three days of separation, they were treated with admiration. Uhri, who was extremely poor and embarrassed at the beginning, had now replaced his shotgun with another.
The three hundred elite soldiers under his command are all specially allocated to him by the wealthy families in the south. In addition, they have all the weapons and armor, and even the military expenses are a full ten thousand taels of silver!
And Wu Heli's mission was to disrupt Qin Feng's plan outside Gusu City.
As for his good brothers Wu Cheng and Chen Yanzong, they led another 300 people to lurk among the mountains, waiting for opportunities to move.
According to the promise of the wealthy people in the southern border, as long as Wu Heli can help the southern border and repel Qin Feng, he will directly become a self-reliant prince of ten thousand households in the southern border, with 10,000 troops, and even be granted land.
Wu Heli secretly vowed to fight Qin Feng to the end at all costs.
Whether the brothers can become successful or not depends on this battle.
Looking at the largest village in the Gusu City area, Datian Village.
Uhli gritted his teeth and waved his hand: "Except women and children, kill them all!"
"Listen to me, don't harm women and children. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished by military law."
Following an order, three hundred cavalrymen rushed straight to Datian Village, and in an instant, mourning was everywhere.
Uhli did not enter the village, but just stood at the entrance of the village and watched, his brows furrowed.
Although he had already become a bandit, he was unwilling to kill the people. After all, he had suffered and knew the suffering of the people.
However, in order to achieve a great cause, he can only abandon the benevolence of women, slaughter all the men, and leave the incense of women and children in Datian Village. This is the limit of his ability.
The killing did not last long. Facing three hundred elite soldiers, the men in the village had no ability to resist and were slaughtered in the blink of an eye.
According to Uhri's order, all women and children were gathered in the middle of the village.
Uhli rode into the village on horseback. Although he repeatedly ordered not to hurt women and children, unfortunately, he still saw the bodies of several women and children along the way.
At this moment, a heart-rending woman's wailing sounded in her ears.
Uhli frowned and was about to dismount, but was grabbed by the deputy general.
"General, my brothers have been running around for so long and finally let go. Let them have their fun."
"As long as there is a big difference in everything, why bother taking it seriously?"
Listening to the woman's cries of being insulted, Uhri's eyes were full of anger, and he refuted sharply.
"These people are all citizens of the Southern Territory, and you are also soldiers of the Southern Territory. How can you show no mercy to your own people?"
"We are soldiers, not thieves. We must not be so dishonest."
Faced with Uhli's scolding, the deputy general sneered faintly and began to sarcastically insinuate.
"Isn't the general a gangster?"
What? !
Uhri was stunned for a moment, and then he sighed deeply. Although these soldiers and horses obeyed his orders, they looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts.
The lieutenant general did not restrain himself and mocked coldly: "Besides, aren't you from Yuezhao Kingdom?"
"I, the people in the south, are not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"
Feeling the contemptuous looks from the deputy general and the surrounding soldiers, Uhri was furious, but he had no choice but to do anything.
Listening to the shrill screams, Uhri gritted his teeth, pushed the deputy general away, and got off his horse.
When he kicked open the door, he saw three soldiers violently abusing a young woman.
Seeing Uhli suddenly barging in, the three soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then they started laughing.
They stepped back, disheveled, and made a sign of invitation.
"Oh, look at your brains, you guys, it's not easy to find a pretty girl. She was just enjoying herself and forgot about the general."
"General, please invite me first, I'll wait for you."
He looked at the soldiers who had no military discipline and looked like beasts, and then looked at the ruined young woman with disheveled hair and a look of despair.
Uhri was furious, and without any hesitation, he directly pulled out his saber from his waist and killed the three soldiers on the spot.
It didn't matter what he did, the soldiers behind him immediately surrounded him.
The deputy general frowned, dismounted, walked over quickly, and shouted: "General, what are you doing?"
"If you are a big man, you must act like a big man. If you can't let the soldiers take advantage of it, who will be loyal to you wholeheartedly?"
"You killed three brothers in a row for a woman, how can you convince the public!"
Of course Uhri knew the truth behind this, but since he became a general, he would never allow his soldiers to do such beastly things.
Bandits have their own ways of living, and soldiers have their own discipline.
When Wu Heli joined the army in Yuezhao Kingdom, he was known for his strict military laws.
"What, you guys want to mutiny? Get out of here!"
No one thought that the Yuezhao people in front of them, far away in a foreign country, could be so confident.
If these generals stand firm, they will not have a good life in the future.
The soldiers present winked at each other. As long as the lieutenant gave the order, they would pounce on Uhli and cut him into pieces.
But the lieutenant waved his hand to suppress the soldiers who wanted to mutiny.
"Since the powerful people in the south ask General Wu to lead us, naturally no one dares to refuse."
"but……"
Before the deputy general could finish speaking, Uhri interrupted sharply: "Nothing but!"
"Since you all know that I am entrusted by the wealthy people in the South, you have no choice but to obey orders. If you kill me and ruin the plans of the powerful people in the South, none of you will survive."
"My words are unquestionable orders!"
"I previously ordered that those who kill women and children will be punished on the spot. This is no child's play. These three people have paid the price for insulting the village women."
"If anyone dares to disobey military orders again, he will be killed without mercy."
Although the soldiers were resentful in their hearts, they had no choice but to accept whoever allowed Uhli to be put in the important position of the wealthy family in the south, even if they were unwilling to do so.
The deputy general finally saw that the foreigner with a background of bandits in front of him was definitely not a good person.
It's no wonder that the wealthy families in the south would reuse an outsider like him.
The deputy general immediately clasped his fists: "Please rest assured, General Wu, we will fulfill our duties and will never do it again."
After barely suppressing his soldiers, Uhri secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He wanted to comfort the woman, but when he turned around, he found that when he and the soldiers were confronting her, the woman had already hit the wall and committed suicide.
Uhli's eyes flashed with unbearability, but he had no choice.
When he came to the center of the village and saw the women and children hugging each other, Wu Heli said in a deep voice: "We are the imperial army, under the command of the King of Qin. Anyone who dares to secretly communicate with Gusu City will be killed without mercy."
"Small punishments and big warnings, as a warning to others, remember them all!"
