Water Margin people

"Sir, there is something going on in the west!"

A henchman walked in and whispered.

"What's going on? Tell me!"

Saladin, who was looking at the map in deep thought, spoke up.

"All the people General Sam sent out were killed and their bodies burned!"

A confidant reported the incident.

"They were all killed? How many people did he send over there?"

Saladin asked.

"Seven teams, more than 800 people, driving nearly 3,000 civilians!"

The henchman replied.

"They were all killed? No one broke through Qi's defense line?"

Saladin asked in surprise, it was too ridiculous that not a single one of the 3,800 people could break through the defense line, how could one or two people get through.

"They were all killed, their bodies were burnt! They were all turned into charcoal!"

The confidant spoke.

"That's really cruel!"

Saladin had to admire Qi's blockade capabilities. He couldn't do it so well, not to mention that Qi didn't have that many troops.

"What about Sam? What's he going to do?"

Saladin asked, looking at his cronies.

"General Sam said that although the front is all plains and deserts, there is no cover. The Qi army is constantly patrolling, so it is difficult to hide and cross. So he plans to lead his men to enter from the mountains on the west side of the Gulf of Aqaba."

The confidant spoke.

"The mountains on the west side of the Gulf of Aqaba? Yeah! That's a good route!"

Saladin nodded. If it was impossible to pass directly, taking the mountain road was the best option. The Qi army could not patrol in the mountains.

"Also, you take this letter to the Red Sea and give it to Han Shizhong!"

Saladin took out another parchment scroll and said.

"Sir, why are you sending letters to the enemy?"

The confidant was puzzled. The last time they sent a letter to the Persian Gulf, Zhang Qing directly refused, which slapped the face of the Arabs. Why are they sending it to Han Shizhong now? They had a fierce battle with Han Shizhong not long ago.

"Just go when I tell you to go, why are you talking so much nonsense!"

Saladin was a little annoyed. His subordinates were all brainless people. It was too tiring to have to think about everything on his own.

The confidant took the letter and left.

"Hey!"

Saladin sighed helplessly. Sam began to act. Things would happen soon and he had to clear himself of suspicion. He sent a letter to Zhang Qing with great fanfare. If he did not send a letter to Han Shizhong, it would be too suspicious.

On the west side of the Gulf of Aqaba, between the mountains, Sam was leading his men through difficult terrain.

"General, several more died!"

A soldier reported to Sam.

"Why are they dying again? Let them die later!"

Sam became furious. He brought these infected people with him just to let them spread the plague, but people were dying every day along the way. If this continued, all the people would die before he could get out of the mountains.

"General, this..."

The soldiers looked at Sam helplessly. They could all be infected with the Black Death at any time. How could they make those infected die more slowly? If there was a way, they would not have used such a suicidal tactic.

This time, Sam brought all the fanatics with him. They had no intention of going back since they came. Now they were all pathogens. In the end, they would stay with the infected people, get infected themselves, and then blend into the crowd to spread the plague.

"Hurry up and reach Abrudis within ten days!"

Sam looked at everyone and spoke.

"Yes, General!"

Everyone said in unison.

……

On the wasteland, the Qi army was marching.

"General, we found a camp ahead!" the scout came back on horseback to report.

"Outflank and attack directly. Don't give the enemy time to react!"

Han Shizhong immediately gave the order. He was unwilling to get entangled with the enemy any further. He could not even imagine what a group of unscrupulous people who wanted to spread the plague would do.

"kill!"

The Qi army quickly lined up and charged, with their horses galloping.

Because it was a desert, the Qi army's charge was quickly discovered by the defenders in the camp. The horns sounded and the defenders prepared for defense with bows and arrows in hand.

When the Qi army approached the camp, it was divided into two teams and made a detour.

The soldiers on the front had already assembled mortars, and without any orders, rows of shells fired directly into the camp.

There were constant explosions and screams, and the camp was in chaos. The soldiers who had just prepared for defense hid with their heads in their hands.

"on!"

The flanking army immediately approached and threw grenades into the camp.

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

There was another series of violent explosions, and the explosion range was just inside the outer wall of the camp. Those soldiers who covered their heads to avoid it were directly killed.

"Fight back!"

The defending general shouted to encourage his soldiers to fight back and prepare to repel the invading enemy.

The two armies that had made the detour immediately withdrew, mortars sounded again, and explosions rang out in the camp again.

The soldiers who had just mustered up their courage instantly collapsed and hid in the tent.

"kill!"

Seeing that the enemy was defeated, Han Shizhong immediately ordered his army to attack, preparing to capture the enemy camp in one fell swoop.

"General, something is wrong. The size of this camp should be at least three to five thousand people. The ones who showed up just now are probably less than five hundred!"

An officer holding a telescope whispered that the enemy's resistance was too weak. They collapsed after just one round of attack. This was a defense camp and it shouldn't be like this.

"Well, something is wrong. Could it be that the main force is not here?"

Han Shizhong also discovered this problem, but it was a good thing that the enemy did not resist, so he simply flattened him.

Seeing that the enemy had hidden in the tents and had no intention of entering the camp, the army took out the gourd filled with black oil, smashed it on the camp, and then set it on fire.

The fire burned fiercely, and thick smoke and flames instantly enveloped the camp.

"Guard every position well and don't let anyone escape."

Han Shizhong gave orders to the army.

As the flames and smoke spread, the people hiding in the camp finally collapsed. They frantically rushed out of the sea of ​​fire to escape.

But what was waiting for them was the black muzzle of a gun.

"Bang bang bang!"

There was a burst of gunfire, and those who had just rushed out of the sea of ​​fire fell to the ground and died with blood splattered all over their bodies.

Seeing how terrifying the people of Qi were, the smarter ones rushed out of the sea of ​​fire and lay on the ground begging for mercy, not daring to move at all.

The flames quickly engulfed the camp, and everyone who failed to escape was burned to death in the camp.

"I ask you a question, how many people are there in the camp?"

Han Shizhong looked at the people lying on the ground and asked.

"Five hundred and thirty people!"

Several people on the ground spoke quickly.

"Whose subordinates are you? Where did the main force go? What is your purpose here?"

Han Shizhong confirmed that the number of people was wrong and raised three more questions.

"We are General Sam's men!"

"General Sam took his men away, and we don't know where they went!"

"We are... here to... spread the plague!"

Those people answered immediately.

"Sam, spread the plague! Okay, okay, you are so stupid!"

Han Shizhong gritted his teeth and said, the conjecture finally became a reality, and the worst situation still happened. (End of this chapter)
