Chapter 363 Ambush
In the wilderness, there is a birch forest.
The howling north wind adds a bit of bleakness to this world. On the birch trees, the yellow-green leaves are still swaying on the branches, while the withered yellow leaves are falling with the wind.
Unlike the dense jungles in the south, it is difficult to find a good hiding place in such a birch forest. Fortunately, as the global creatures are getting bigger, these birch trees have thicker trunks, more spread branches, and wider leaves than before. If people hide in the trees, it is difficult to be discovered.
Luo Ren hid in a birch tree. At this time, he was dressed in rags, like a beggar begging for food. His face was also made up of malnutrition and smeared with some dirty mud. He looked very embarrassed.
He was waiting, waiting for the hunting group from the Yingzhou military base to come, and then he would find the right time to blend in with the civilians.
"Everyone pay attention, the hunting group is rushing towards the birch forest."
Yao Cheng's voice suddenly came from the earphones on his ears. He didn't need to disguise himself to blend in with the civilians, so he was also responsible for intelligence exploration at this time.
After hearing this, Luo Ren calmed down and prepared himself.
After a while, there was a dense sound of footsteps. He looked through the gaps between the leaves and looked in the direction of the sound. He saw a team of people of two different identities rushing towards this side.
The people walking in front of this team were dressed in rags like him. It was estimated that there were at least seven or eight hundred people. They didn't look good either. They must be ordinary people.
The people behind them were fully armed, full of complexion, and riding in vehicles. They should be Yingzhou soldiers.
Judging from the appearance of these people, they all looked like authentic Xia people. Seeing them push and beat the people who walked a little slower, Luo Ren felt angry in his heart. Such people were even more hateful than Yingzhou people.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, he carefully scanned the entire Yingzhou Army and thought to himself: "With such equipment, it is not a siege, but a normal hunt. It seems that Gao Nanxun does not intend to start in the birch forest.
That's right. The birch forest is outside, and the civilians they carry are only seven or eight hundred people. If they can't win, the air support of the Xia Kingdom military will not be vegetarian."
The hunting group of the Yingzhou military base quickly advanced to the birch forest. Those ordinary people did not have firearms, but they were still issued cold weapons such as knives. Going out hunting is just bare-handed, which is no different from sending death.
Although it is a hunting group, they are also responsible for collecting. After these people entered the birch forest, with the order of the officers of the Yingzhou Army, the civilians began to collect, and the Yingzhou soldiers sat or leaned on the ground to rest.
Luo Ren saw the opportunity and took advantage of the Yingzhou soldiers' inattention to jump down from the birch tree, and then learned to collect with these civilians.
It was also a tree, but a different tree. The other few people also took the opportunity to jump down and then mixed into the crowd.
While collecting food, Luo Ren quietly observed the Yingzhou soldiers. Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure approaching the Yingzhou soldiers. It was Qiu Ting.
He thought she was going to communicate with the Yingzhou soldiers, but she just stopped not far away and collected food with the people there.
They collected and hunted all the way until it was about to enter the evening, and the leader of the Yingzhou Army ordered to return to the city.
Luo Ren and his men mixed in with the civilians, walking blankly like these civilians. Luo Ren saw the people next to him, with expressionless faces and dull eyes.
He knew that this was because they worked every day except for eating and sleeping, and 99% of the income from the work was handed over to those who held weapons, so they would not starve to death.
Maybe some of them tried to resist, but now is not the ancient times. The gap in weapons is difficult to make up with the number of people, and not everyone has the courage to resist, so naturally they end up like this, barely saving their lives.
Then they live in such a daze, aimlessly, and no different from the zombies wandering in the vast world.
If you insist on finding the difference, one is still alive physically, and the other is already dead physically.
After an hour's journey, a city appeared in front of us. The city wall was made of rammed earth, because soil and grass are the most easily available resources.
The soldiers with guns on the city wall arrogantly swept over hundreds of civilians, and when they saw the soldiers behind the civilians, their attitude immediately softened.
They completely regarded these civilians as slaves, thinking that they were standing on a high position and looking down on these ragged, unkempt slaves who were once the same as them.
And those soldiers were at the same level as them, so they could look at them with equal eyes.
The tall city gate opened, and under the drive of the Yingzhou soldiers, they entered the city. They saw a straight gravel road leading directly to the center of the city. In general, the rulers like to live in the center of the city, so that they can show that they are the central figures of this place in all aspects.
But the city of Yingzhou Military Base is different, and the rulers inside are even more different. They are not native Xia people, but foreign invaders.
Therefore, they were very afraid of being attacked by the Xia army, so they lived with the common people, and in this way of tying up with the people, they coerced the Xia army not to use weapons of mass destruction that fell from the sky.
After the team entered the city, they did not disband on their own. The Yingzhou army urged the seven or eight hundred people to continue moving forward. Luo Ren saw a trace of surprise on the expressionless faces of the people next to him, but it quickly disappeared. They obeyed the urging and just kept moving forward.
Luo Ren's eyes rolled, thinking, "It seems that they really plan to start a fight in the city." He smiled coldly in his heart, and said secretly: "I hope that more people will come, such as the commander-in-chief, the commander, the commanders of the first, second, third, fourth and fifth corps. No, the second is gone, isn't the first here? So, the commanders of the third, fourth and fifth corps should all come, just in time for me to catch them all in one fell swoop!"
"Something is wrong. After entering the city, the civilians should be dispersed directly. Why are they still walking forward?" After walking for about half an hour, Han Yu quietly moved to Luo Ren's side and whispered.
Then two more people came over, Yu Cang and Cheng Shan.
Yu Cang said: "I feel something is wrong."
Cheng Shan echoed: "I have a bad feeling that something will happen later!"
Luo Ren looked at Qiu Ting's back, and as if she noticed his gaze, Qiu Ting turned around and smiled, her smile was extremely bright.
Suddenly, the urging voice behind him died down, and only the footsteps were heard getting farther and farther away. Qiu Ting suddenly jumped away from the crowd, and the crowd in front suddenly panicked.
Someone turned around and ran back, and then the sound of "Da Da Da Da" gunfire rang out, and bullets like raindrops poured over, and the people in the front row fell one after another.
Han Yu shouted: "Get out of the way, we are exposed!"
As soon as these words came out, Yu Cang and Cheng Shan were both shocked. They didn't care about the lives of these people, and jumped out of the fire coverage. In fact, these bullets had no effect on level 3 evolvers.
Luo Ren did not dodge, but rushed forward, braving the rain of bullets to rush to the front of the row of soldiers, using fists and feet, mercilessly, for these people, just one word "kill"!
Soon more than a hundred soldiers died under his fists, and the gunfire stopped abruptly.
Bang Bang Bang! !
After three collisions, Han Yu, Yu Cang, and Cheng Shan fell backwards to the ground, back to back, facing the four directions.
At that time, there were three people standing on the roof of the four houses, one with a big beard on his face and a naked upper body covered with long brown hair.
A small eye, a flat mouth, holding two Yingzhou samurai swords in his hands, and a black tail growing behind his buttocks, still swinging constantly.
There was also a woman, with heavy makeup and a smaller folding fan in her hand, but she didn't look any different.
"Hahaha..."
Suddenly, a loud laugh sounded, and only the sound of breaking wind was heard, and a person jumped onto the roof. Han Yu, Yu Cang, and Cheng Shan saw this person and couldn't help but be shocked. Cheng Shan exclaimed: "Qiuting!"
After a while, Han Yu reacted and immediately became furious, cursing: "Damn Qiuting, you are a soldier of Xia country and you actually defected to Yingzhou people. I was wondering how you would be discovered. It turned out that you were the one who reported it!"
When Yu Cang heard this, he also stared at Qiuting with cold eyes, and the murderous intent he exuded showed his mood at the moment.
"Hahaha..."
Qiuting laughed wildly, and then stopped abruptly. She grabbed her face with one hand and pulled off a flesh-colored mask.
After taking off the mask, she completely changed her appearance. Han Yu and the other two were shocked again.
"I am not Qiu Ting, I am the chosen one of the gods, the commander of the first army of the Yingzhou military base, Gao Nanxun."
Gao Nanxun smiled evilly, stared at Han Yu and the other two, and said: "Three Xia people, your mission ends here, prepare to die!"
She suddenly looked at Luo Ren sideways, like a venomous snake locking onto its prey, and said: "And you, I will do it myself, one knife at a time... cut off your flesh and eat it!"
