Chapter 214: 65: Driving the Barbarians to Attack the City

A dozen young barbarians were killed instantly by the players. This group of players, who were bloodthirsty, still remembered Niu Bu's order and saved the life of a young barbarian for questioning.

The young barbarian, whose face was filled with anger and fear, was brought before Niu Bu, who rode on his warhorse and looked down at the barbarian with contempt: "What's your name, and which tribe are you from?"

"Bah, you damn two-legged sheep, don't even think about getting any information from me!"

"Oh, you're pretty tough!"

Seeing the barbarians tempering him, Niu Bu was not angry. He glanced at Coach Li Yulun and said with a smile: "Coach, this young man will be presented to you as a filial gift. What do you think?"

"Get lost, why do you sound so awkward to me?"

Li Yu Lun raised his hand and slapped Niu Bu on the head, and said, "What do you mean by filial piety to you, your elder? You said that as if I were a person who had a preference for both men and women."

Let alone a young man, even if a beautiful woman was given to me, I wouldn't even look at her.

Li Yulun cursed Niu Bu angrily and looked at the grinning Niu Bu. He refused verbally, but he still got off his horse and walked towards the corner carrying the young barbarian.

"Everyone, drive all the barbarians from this village here. Don't leave any barbarians behind, not even children!"

Seeing that Coach Li Yulun had walked away, Niu Bu gave orders again, asking his raiding team to begin capturing the barbarians in the village.

This village is the closest to the Tartak Basin. It has 37 households. Most of the young people in the village were killed by Niu Bu's raiding team, while the adults were out hunting or herding cattle and sheep.

The barbarian villagers who were pushed over by the raiding team were women, children, and the elderly. They were forced by the raiding team to the village square and squatted on the ground.

After these women, children, old and young were forced over, Coach Li Yulun also appeared from the corner, with a little blood on his hands, obviously he had killed the last young man in the village.

"Everyone, divide into four teams. Two teams will patrol in different directions. One team will go find food and drink to replenish their energy. The other team will guard these barbarians from the Sushen tribe!"

"Every two incense sticks, the teams will take turns. Everyone should hurry up and try to eat and drink enough before sunset!"

Seeing that nearly hundreds of barbarians in the village were all gathered in the village square, Niu Bu ordered the raiding team to be divided into four teams: one team for guarding, two teams for patrolling, and the other team to search for food to fill their stomachs.

The raiding team carried out the policy of fighting to support the war. When they set out, in order to ensure their marching speed, they only carried some dry food and fresh water. Now their dry food and fresh water have been used up. Even coaches such as Li Yulun and Zhang Qifeng distributed their dry food and fresh water to other soldiers.

After receiving Niu Bu's order, the raiding team quickly divided into four teams. Niu Bu's team was the strongest team, and he was the first to be responsible for guarding the group of women, children and the elderly.

"Coach, how do we deal with these people?"

"Kill them all? Or..."

Looking at the group of barbarians squatting on the ground with hatred in their eyes, as if they wanted to kill him, Niu Bu came to Coach Li Yulun and asked in a low voice.

According to his character and intention, he wanted to kill all these barbarians to prevent future troubles.

But Niu Bu felt that it was a pity to kill these hundreds of barbarians just like that.

"Keep them and use them for siege!"

"Ok?"

"Drive the barbarians to attack the city!"

Li Yulun glanced at the barbarians squatting on the ground and explained. Niu Bu suddenly understood and gave Li Yulun a thumbs up. Drive the barbarians to attack the city.

This is a very cruel tactic.

In the Imperial Shang Dynasty, there were some ruthless generals who, when attacking a city, would capture some of the enemy's civilians, drive them away, and let them take the lead in the battle.

This method is extremely cruel and brutal, not what a gentleman should do and is despised by everyone.

Throughout the entire Shang Dynasty, there were only two incidents of forcing the people to attack cities. The generals who adopted this tactic also became the target and object of attack by Confucianists.

This tactic would be ungentlemanly if used in wars of the Shang Dynasty, but Niu Bu thought it was a great tactic to use against the barbarians in the northern border.

Those who are not of our race must have different hearts. We treat the barbarians of the 18 tribes in the northern border as cattle of the Ghost Island Country and have no sympathy for them at all.

"wonderful!"

"Just do it!"

Niu Bu gave a lot of thumbs up. He rode a warhorse, holding a Mo Dao, and walked around among the crowd of barbarians like a villain, scaring the women, children, and the young and old into trembling. Some of the hot-tempered barbarian women even glared at Niu Bu and kept insulting him.

Faced with insults, Niu Bu felt no ripples in his heart. He just dragged his Mo Dao, making harsh sounds, bringing tremendous mental pressure to this group of barbarians.

He kept dragging his sword many times until one of the barbarians couldn't stand it anymore and rushed out with his sword drawn, wanting to fight Niu Bu to the death. Only then did Niu Bu stop.

Niu Bu glanced coldly at the group of barbarians without saying a word. About an incense stick later, the first raiding team had eaten and drunk their fill and came with food and drinks to replace the other teams.

Niu Bu's raiding team suddenly attacked the rear of the barbarian coalition. These barbarians were naturally not on guard, so there was no possibility that the food was poisoned.

Each team took about an incense stick of time to eat. After the raiding team had all eaten and drunk their fill, the sky had gradually darkened.

Seeing that it was getting late, Niu Bu, who was riding on a warhorse, looked coldly at the group of women, children, old and young. He cleared his throat and said loudly:

"People of the Sushen tribe, listen to me!"

"The Sushen tribe, together with other tribes in the northern border, not only plunders our Imperial Shang Dynasty every year and slaughters our people, but now they are gathering a large army to attack our Imperial Shang Dynasty!"

“This is a capital crime, and all ten clans should be executed. However, the emperor of our Imperial Shang Dynasty is kind-hearted. You are all women, children, and the elderly. Attacking the Imperial Shang Dynasty is not your wish.

The Emperor of the Shang Dynasty does not want to harm you, but the soldiers under my command and the people who died are unwilling to forgive you!"

"When a general is away from home, he is not subject to military orders. Even if I kill all of you now, the emperor will not know."

"But there should be no disagreement between the monarch and his subjects. Now I will give you a way out."

"I will give you three hours. Run away now. After three hours, my soldiers will start to hunt you down. Whether you can escape or not depends on you!"

"Coach Li, start the countdown!"

After Niu Bu finished speaking, he looked at Li Yulun. Li Yulun was holding a Mo Dao, smashing it heavily on the ground, and snorted:
"Countdown, three hours, you guys can run as fast as you want. After three hours, I will definitely slaughter you all and avenge the people of my Di Shang Dynasty!!!"
