Chapter seven hundred and fifty seventh interception
Due to the indulgence of Qin, the Blood God Cult in Xianyang City has developed very quickly, with more than 5,000 formal believers and tens of thousands of peripheral personnel. In the past two days, under the order of the Prime Minister, the Qin army sent the dead prisoners over and allowed the cultists to torture them.
As soon as the main force of the Qin army left, these cultists who had seen blood screamed and wanted to slaughter the city and sacrifice the blood.
However, as soon as they assembled to attack, Valila secretly took the insect man Amethyst into its headquarters in Xianyang. Amethyst hissed and ordered the parasitic bloodworms in the left-behind cults to devour the host.
The cultists all wailed and fell to the ground and screamed in terror. The pain of the bloodworm body-eating body was so painful.
However, the blood pool here enshrines the Blood God, and he can still issue orders through the statue to cut off the control of the amethyst.
But after just this delay, the amethyst had already flapped its wings and flew to the statue. The hideous mouthpart bit the head of the statue, and tore a large piece of it in the crunching sound of the teeth. The barbs in the mouthparts shattered the fragments of the statue like a rock gravel.
Gohon had consumed too much power in Xiazhou last time, and has not recovered yet. The energy to invest in Xianyang is very limited. He was caught off guard by amethyst sneak attack, and the statue of the god as an energy node was gnawed in less than a minute.
After eating the statue of god several times larger than her, Amethyst burped with satisfaction. She raised her head and wings, and the buzzing sound waves reached the ears of the cultists nearby. They staggered and got up, and after a brief confusion, they chose to obey.
"Why are so many traitors appearing overnight? Humph, Qin Luohan! He also said that you are not a traitor? The rebels are all your confidants!" At this time, the Prime Minister of Qin was furious.
The First Emperor handed over Xianyang to him, and he lost Xianyang afterwards. Where did he put this face?
The prime minister roared: "What are you still standing here for a moment? Go and quell the rebellion!"
Several senior generals and the Qin terracotta warriors looked at each other and clasped their fists and said, "We are ordered to defend the palace, the government office and the warehouse, and we dare not leave our posts without permission."
"..." When is this time, I still stick to dogma. This is how the Qin army is. It is an efficient weapon of war in the hands of outstanding generals, and a rigid dogmatic dumb geese in the hands of mediocre talents. These Qin terracotta officers are even more dull. They move when they give an order, and they are dazed if they don't give an order.
The prime minister obviously did not understand military affairs. All the generals and schools guarded their own acres of land and watched the rebel army grow stronger.
In order to escort supplies and guard the important places, the Qin army left eight thousand people in the city. If five thousand people were gathered to kill them as soon as possible after the uprising broke out, Cao Wenhuan could not resist it at all.
Now, the rebel army has armed 40,000 to 50,000 people. Although most of them are fighting against the five scumbags, the Qin army cannot move forward smoothly.
Although the Prime Minister did not know the specific situation of the rebel army, he still had basic judgments. He knew that the efficiency of the people under Qin Luohan's control was much better than that of the ancient Qin Dynasty. Xianyang City had a population of hundreds of thousands, and it would be fine to rebel and raise tens of thousands of people. Now the total combat power of the Qin army in the city is no longer superior. If the time, place and people are all lost, they will be defeated when they start a war head-on.
Moreover, the 50,000 troops of the Republic outside the city also began to exert force. Although thousands of Qin troops fought to the death, they could not last long.
"Forget it, immediately rectify the army and pack up their things, and leave the city overnight. We transport the important materials in the warehouse to Mount Li." The prime minister waved his hand.
The most important materials in Xianyang City were of course placed in the core warehouse, right next to the government office, and the rebel army was not able to conquer it. Moreover, the 20,000 civilians who had prepared logistics for the First Emperor to go to war were not released yet, and they were just in time to use it.
The normal Qin army would not fight at night, but for more than two thousand years, the undead and the Qin terracotta warriors had night vision capabilities, and the night battle had no effect at all. On the contrary, the Republic's army was so dark that nothing could be seen, and its combat power was greatly affected.
Qin's law was very strict, digging his eyes and cutting his nose, cutting his hands and feet. The screams of the prisoners were powerful and powerful, which was much more effective than beheading the head and killing people directly. Twenty thousand civilians were driven by four or five hundred Qin warriors to ship goods overnight and prepare to evacuate.
A team of two thousand Qin troops were the vanguard of troops, and the rest of the Qin troops were escorting civilians and supplies and then following up. The scouts in the army monitored the situation on both sides of the team in real time.
However, soon the soldiers reported: "Prime Minister, the enemy assassins hid in the building and attacked from time to time, and our scouts suffered heavy losses."
The prime minister had a gloomy face and looked at the densely packed houses around him. The current terrain of Xianyang is much more complicated than that of the past, and the urban area is more than ten times larger. He said helplessly: "It's okay, send additional scouts and keep moving forward!"
He has eight thousand Qin warriors who are not afraid of death. If you sprinkle a thousand out, you can attack them casually. As long as you leave the city with complex terrain and come to the open land, the assassin will be useless.
Soon, another soldier came to report: "Prime Minister, cultists appeared in front of the left! The number exceeded 5,000."
Cultist? The Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty was a little confused. Shouldn’t these guys be doing destruction in the city and earning blood sacrifices? Why did he come to his own side?
"Send the order to be on guard!"
However, as soon as the Prime Minister finished speaking, the strange noise of the battle came over. The Qin army and the mutant cultists were both cold weapons troops. If there was a small-scale confrontation, the movement would not be far away. Only a battle of more than a thousand people would be heard by the Prime Minister in the center of the team.
Although the Qin army had eight thousand soldiers, it was the escort of the entire transportation team, with a long team and a low density of troops. Such an arrangement would not be much problem with the mobs like the rebel army who had no breakthrough ability. If you encounter a cultist who was fearless and directly charged in a intensive manner without saying a word, you would be unable to resist it.
Moreover, these cultists were blessed by the aura of amethyst, and their single combat power was not inferior to that of the Qin Warriors. Relying on their numerical advantage, they quickly defeated one side of the enemy and rushed towards the convoy.
The Qin army was about to organize the defense line to defend, but the prime minister scolded: "Turn those civilians over and let them block the way."
After saying that, he threw a deterrent technique into the crowd of civilians. The husband, who was already frightened, immediately buried his head like a quail and was driven to the direction of the cult's attack by the fierce Qin warriors.
This move will have miraculous effects on the soldiers of the Republic, and they will never force the civilian team. But the Prime Minister obviously did not choose the right opponent.
Amethyst, who commanded the cultists, was a cruel and cold-blooded insect man. Dead people and dead soldiers were not within her considerations. She only cared about whether she could defeat the enemy. Xiang Ningxuan was not here, and no one could restrain her. The civilians blocked the way? It doesn’t matter, she roared and led the army over.
The Qin army never expected that the hostages were not used. The civilians were frightened birds, and they ran to the other side with fierceness. The Qin Warriors were obviously not as terrifying as the mutant cultists who were not human-shaped. Therefore, they collapsed as soon as they came into contact with them, and ran to both sides smartly, and rushed backwards to the Qin army in a daze.
There were only hundreds of Qin troops responsible for driving out the civilians, and they could not stop the rushing civilians, and their formation was instantly destroyed.
The cultists followed and instantly surrounded the Prime Minister's car and fought fiercely with hundreds of ancient Qin warriors guarded.
The civilians fleeing to both sides also blocked the Qin army returning to the rescue...
When Valila led an elite assassin team to drill through the defense of the ancient Qin terracotta warriors and kill the Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, she couldn't help but shake her head and smile bitterly at the battlefield full of corpses.
Amethyst defeated the Qin army in the middle with only five thousand mutant cultists, killed the prime minister, and caused the rest of the Qin army to lose command and disperse around the transportation team at a loss. It is sooner or later to be wiped out.
But this military victory was based on a large number of casualties among civilians. More than half of the casualties of 20,000 civilians were killed and killed, and the price was very heavy.
