Others are fleeing famine, but I am a salted fish
Chapter 577 Seizing the City
Guo Buren vaguely felt that something was wrong and felt uneasy, but before he could see the situation clearly, everyone watched as an arrow came from afar, rapidly breaking through the air and shooting towards them.
"laugh"
Guo Bu Ren was shot, and the arrow hit him so hard that it pierced his heart.
The arrow was sunk so deeply that only a section of tail feathers was left exposed on the chest, and a trickle of bright red blood was dripping slowly along the tail feathers.
Guo Buren slowly lowered his head and blinked, but before he seemed to realize anything, he fell down with a bang.
The sudden change made all the generals around him unable to believe it, and the air seemed to freeze at this moment.
And his so-called brother-in-law, the second in command of Loge City, squatted down, tremblingly sniffed his breath, and then shouted in a trembling voice, "General Guo... General Guo, dead... dead."
As soon as Guo Bu'ren died, the more than 100,000 soldiers under his command began to riot.
Seeing this, the elder brother-in-law quickly bent down and hid his body under the parapet to avoid being exposed to the enemy's shooting range. At the same time, he loudly rebuked Lin Xiaoyue, who was still holding a crossbow and raising her hand to shoot, questioning her for shamelessly attacking and shooting the guard when no one was prepared.
Lin Xiaoyue chuckled under the other party's questioning, "If you want to kill him, do you still need to give a heads up?"
The unconventional way of playing the cards shocked everyone in Loge City.
Then, Lin Xiaoyue put away her crossbow and raised a loud speaker to the prince's mouth.
The prince coughed awkwardly and shouted towards the city, "Listen, soldiers and people of Loge City. I am the prince of the Great Yuan Dynasty. I am sending troops to Tiansheng today because it is God's will to save the people from suffering. I solemnly promise that those who surrender will not be killed."
???
What? The prince of Dawon is here?
The prince leads the army in person.
Then what he said...
It has to be said that the prince's words made the soldiers in Loge City excited.
The loudspeaker Lin Xiaoyue specially gave to the prince resounded throughout the venue, allowing the people in Luoge City to clearly hear the prince's exceptionally loud voice, and they ran out of their homes and poured into the streets.
My brother-in-law and all the generals in Loge City were so angry that their faces turned green and they were extremely hateful.
If you want to hit someone, just hit them. But it’s too much to attack their mind first.
The eldest brother-in-law yelled angrily, "You big pig, stop trying to deceive the army." After saying that, he glared at the soldiers around him fiercely and warned, "Don't be fooled by the big pig's lies, Prince, you are a jerk. If you dare to surrender, I will kill you first."
The prince ignored his brother-in-law Guo Bu'ren's call, and continued to raise his voice to add to the soldiers and civilians in the city, "I know that the people are suffering too much and are about to starve to death or freeze to death. I can't bear it, so I led the troops to rescue everyone from the sea of suffering. If the people in the city hear this, please leave the city quickly. I promise that Dayuan will treat his people well and will never let the soldiers bully the people. Follow Dayuan, and you will no longer have to live a hard life."
After the prince finished shouting, he passed the loudspeaker to the people around him and asked them to take over and continue shouting towards the people in the city, aiming to win the hearts of the people.
Although the prince's words were extremely inspiring, it was not his one-sided words that would make the people of Tiansheng risk their lives for him.
But if it was the former prisoners of war from Tiansheng who came out one by one to call out to their families in the city, telling them that life under Dayuan's jurisdiction was more promising and hopeful than in Tiansheng, it would be different.
People are all made of flesh and blood. Their relatives who went to the battlefield are still alive, and under the control of Dayuan, even if they are prisoners, they have more hope than in Tiansheng. So why should they still live in danger of death under the cruel and tyrannical rule of Tiansheng, which does not treat ordinary people as human beings?
Once human hearts become fickle, they are difficult to control.
Even though the generals on the city wall were furious and anxious, they were only a minority. More soldiers silently lowered their heads, slowly put down their weapons, squatted down and held their heads to indicate surrender.
The blue veins on Guo Bu Ren's brother-in-law's forehead were throbbing and his head was aching badly. Ahhhh, he was going crazy.
Originally, he and his sister planned to transfer all the money that Guo Bu'ren had extorted from the people over the years. As long as all the property was transferred out, when the war broke out, they would let Guo Bu'ren take the lead while they quietly found an opportunity to escape.
If a war really breaks out, there will be chaos everywhere and no one will have the time to find the brother and sister from the vast crowd across the mountains and rivers.
When the limelight is over, they move to another place, change their identities, and continue to live a glamorous life with servants at their command.
But who would have thought that Guo Bu Ren was so useless that he was killed by Da Yuan in a single encounter. Now, in this huge army, he was the only one who stood out, and all the other generals huddled behind him. He was so angry that he drew his sword and attacked the surrendering soldiers.
With each strike of his sword, blood spurted out, and in the blink of an eye, seven or eight soldiers died at the hands of his sword.
"I want you to surrender, traitors, all of you are traitors, I will kill you." The brother-in-law's eyes were red and he was killing madly. At the same time, his crazy behavior also stimulated the soldiers who were wavering.
Just as Guo Bu'ren's brother-in-law raised his sword and swung it at the surrendering soldiers again, countless arrows whizzed towards him from all directions at an incredibly fast speed, accurately piercing him into a human-shaped hedgehog.
The confused brother-in-law's eyes suddenly widened, unable to believe that he had followed in Guo Bu'ren's footsteps so quickly.
The remaining generals around him could not even wait for Dayuan to offer their surrender, and immediately threw away their swords and knives and knelt on the ground.
Damn, why don't you surrender? Are you crazy? Didn't you see that General Guo and his brother-in-law were killed instantly by the other side, and this was before Dayuan used gunpowder weapons...
Actually, it's not surprising, these people were all scared. After all, the effective range of a normal bow and arrow is only about a hundred meters, not to mention that the lethality is so great when shot from outside the city to the city wall, enough to pierce a person's heart and make him feel cold.
The prince stared blankly at Lin Xiaoyue, who was blowing a breath at the crossbow, and the guards behind him holding crossbows. He thought to himself: Fortunately, Princess Le'an is on their side.
Then his eyes fell on the bows and crossbows in the hands of Lin Xiaoyue and others, and his eyes couldn't help but sparkle.
It must be said that no matter what era it is, there is no man who does not love weapons, and the prince is no exception.
Facing the prince's sparkling eyes, Lin Xiaoyue smiled slightly and said cheerfully, "If the prince likes it, I will give it to you later."
In fact, Lin Xiaoyue had already given the drawings of the improved crossbows in the hands of the guards to the Seventh Uncle, and the Ministry of Industry had made them. However, I don't know if it was because of the different production methods, but in short, the improved crossbows sent by the Ministry of Industry were not as powerful as those made by Lin Xiaoyue, whether in actual combat or in appearance.
