Chapter 1411 Siege, Rescue
"I'm going right now!" The two scouts immediately turned around and ran towards the depths of the tunnel.
After hearing the scouts' report, the murderous aura of Commander Gan and his men solidified like stagnant water, and with a clang, the sharp daggers were flicked by their fingers.
Commander Da Gan stood up: "I am the commander of the Death Squad. My job is to risk my life. I will go first. You will carry out the remaining military orders. You must use Dongfu Town to kill as many enemy soldiers as possible and deplete their military strength."
"Who among you is willing to follow Commander Gan and risk your lives?" Fan Deng asked on behalf of the three.
"Commander, this humble general is willing!"
"This humble general is willing..."
Commander Gan interrupted them: "Xiao Huang and A Zhong, each of you can lead half your troops to support me. The other elite troops are fighting alongside your commanders and have military duties to perform. If you can't give me all the elite troops, then what about your military duties?"
There was no time to waste, so the matter was settled.
"Order!"
"Understood!" Commanders Xiao Huang and A Zhong immediately went to assemble their elite troops.
Thump thump thump, thump thump thump!
On the ground, the western soldiers beat gongs to urge the eastern troops on.
Dong Mangfu was so agitated by the urging that he shrank back and hurriedly yelled at Dong Guifu, "What kind of work are you doing? Hurry up, or I'll kill you first, kill you first!"
You see, this kind of repetitive sentence structure is a sign that the brain has been tortured to the point of being abnormal.
Dong Guifu, increasingly annoyed, ordered, "Men, bring out one hundred grains of Wei Jianzhong and execute him by cutting off his limbs!"
Cutting off the hands, feet, and head is the punishment of amputation in the Eastern Desert.
Of the tens of thousands of Wei citizens who heard this, only a few hundred who were close to Mr. Xu and his group were moved; the other several thousand remained numb.
"You bastard Wei scum, come here! Kneel down, kneel down, kneel down!" The eastern soldiers glared fiercely at the long ropes binding Wei Min.
With a tug, bang bang bang, all one hundred Wei people on the rope were pulled down to the ground.
"Hold them down, chop them down, let them know the consequences of not cooperating with the Divine Protector of Dongmo to destroy Wei!!" Dong Guifu roared, his eyes bloodshot and bulging out.
Tsk, the Dong brothers are both sick; they've probably got the meat-eating virus in their brains.
"Yes, sir!" The two platoons of Eastern soldiers immediately sprang into action.
A line of soldiers was responsible for holding Wei Min down.
A line of eastern soldiers raised their swords and carried out the execution.
Click, click, click!
The chilling sound of limbs being severed was deafening. In no time, a hundred Wei civilians had their limbs and heads cut off, dying tragically.
The scene was utterly silent, as if time had stood still.
A little while later...
"Aaaaaah! Murder! Massacre! Another massacre!"
"The enemy has massacred the city! Run! General Chi, General Chi has abandoned us and run away! What a beast!"
"Hahaha, that guy surnamed Chi is dead too, slaughtered by the enemy! Hahaha!"
"Don't surrender! Surrender will only make things worse. The enemy is not human. The Wei people must fight to the death against the enemy. Only by fighting to the death can we survive!"
"Don't surrender..."
Amidst the raving and incoherent voices, shouts of "Wei people, do not surrender!" emerged, and like ripples, more and more Wei people joined in, the sound spreading outwards in concentric circles.
Dong Guifu and the others were stunned.
Dong Mangfu and the others behind him were also stunned, then roared in shock and anger: "Dong Guifu, what are you doing? How dare you let those bastards from Liangwei utter such words that are detrimental to the great cause of destroying Wei! Kill another batch, shut them up, and make them obediently go and protect the Eastern Desert from the gods and wade into the trap!"
"Kill them! Dissect the grain rations alive! This is their punishment for disobeying!" Dong Guifu ordered.
Thump thump thump, thump thump thump!
Behind them, the drums of the western troops beat urgently, urging the eastern troops on. The eastern troops dared not delay any longer, and only wanted to use inhuman methods such as dismemberment to force the Wei people to submit.
Bang bang bang bang, the eastern soldiers pinned ten Wei men to the ground, making them lie on their backs, then raised their swords and lunged to stab them in the chest.
The puncture won't go too deep, because the patient needs to be alive when it's dissected.
With a sharp slash, the dagger cut open a long wound...
"Ahhh!"
The Wei people screamed in agony.
Some, still alive, continued to shout: "Don't surrender! The enemy isn't human. Surrender will only make things worse. Fight to the death!"
"Useless trash, shut these lowly grain bastards up!" Dong Mangfu rode over personally, pointing his long sword at Dong Guifu and cursing, "Shut up, or I'll send you to the Western King to be used as food!"
"Hahaha!" Dong Guifu laughed, his laughter growing more and more maniacal, before finally stepping aside and saying, "It is my incompetence. Then please let the esteemed King of the East demonstrate his ability to handle affairs."
Dong Mangfu choked, and swung his long sword fiercely at Dong Guifu, but in the end he didn't strike. Instead, he turned the sword and pointed it at the Wei people: "Make a fire, roast one alive, and I don't believe that the cowardly Liang Wei will dare to resist!"
Boom boom boom!
"Is this how the Eastern tribes were tamed by the other tribes of the Eastern Desert?!"
"Ancient maps show that the east has belonged to the Great Wei since ancient times! Ancient historical records state that you in the east are a branch of our Great Wei's ancestors!"
"Brothers in the East, you have been deceived by the Eastern Desert. You are not of the Eastern Desert race at all, which is why the various tribes of the Eastern Desert bully you!"
"Think about the work you did in the mountains to change the customs and traditions of the mountain people. You were the first people to be changed!"
The sound of drums and shouts came from behind different piles of ruins at the same time, instantly resounding throughout the area and allowing the people in the east to hear the full message.
Then, do it again.
"You've been deceived by the people of the Eastern Desert, you are..."
"Wei troops are lying in ambush on the left, right, front, and rear sides! Charge! Kill the Wei troops!" Dong Mangfu reacted and immediately ordered the killing of the Wei troops.
However, Commander Gan and his men were exceptionally skilled and familiar with the terrain and tunnel layout of Dongfu Town. After shouting, they retreated into the tunnels, and the Eastern Army charged twice but failed to catch them.
But the shouting never stopped...
"Brothers in the East, you have been deceived by the people of the Eastern Desert. You are a branch of the ancestors of the Great Wei!"
"Ah! Fire arrows! Shoot down a group of Wei prisoners!" Dong Mangfu, driven mad by torture, directly threatened Da Gan Qianhu and his men: "Wei soldiers, come out to me! If you don't show yourself after I count to three, I will kill all of you Wei people until you are all gone!"
"Don't come out! Don't surrender! Fight to the death! Fight to the death!" The Wei civilians who had regained consciousness cried out repeatedly, pleading with the Wei army: "Don't come out! It's not worth it for us! Fight to the death! Kill more enemy soldiers!"
Click, click, click!
Dong Mangfu was enraged and brandished his broadsword, killing several Wei civilians in succession... He was quite fierce, since he was now only one-armed.
He then angrily rebuked the eastern soldiers: "Execute the order immediately! Kill the Wei people and force the Wei army out! Why aren't you moving?!"
In order to infiltrate and act as spies, the soldiers in the east had to learn the language of the Great Wei from a young age, and they could all understand the shouts of the Great Gan Commander and his men.
Considering their treatment in the East and their appearance, they believed it!
"Your Majesty, is what the Wei army said true? Are we really a branch of the ancestors of the Wei people?"
"It must be true. Look at how we look, and then look at how the other tribes in the Eastern Desert treat us. They treat cattle and sheep better than they treat us!"
"Waaaaah, no wonder the tribes of the Eastern Desert bully us so much..."
"We are the earliest mountain people!"
"Waaaaah, ancestors, we have failed our ancestors!"
Anyone from the East had grown up being bullied by other tribes, so many people could empathize with this. In the blink of an eye, half of the tens of thousands of Eastern soldiers knelt down.
Dongmangfu panicked and trembled with cold, shouting, "Get up! We are not the lowly Liangwei people, we are the people of Dongmo!!"
Even a pig wouldn't believe such nonsense.
