The Emperor is Above

Chapter 140 This is the biggest gain from this battle
The power of the rune arrow can only be fully exerted by a cultivator of the first level.

At this time, under Qing Yi's command, the seventh-rank one was the butler Gongsun Wu, the eighth-rank one was the retainers Dongmen brothers, the ninth-rank one was Chai Yong, Daniu and twenty-four others, plus Qing Yi himself, a total of twenty-eight people.

Qing Yi used a strong bow made of fourth-grade crocodile bones and eighth-grade crocodile tendons, while the other twenty-seven people used eighth-grade and ninth-grade crocodile bows.

"Boom boom boom——"

There were not many specially made rune explosive arrows, but with the precise volleys of twenty-eight people, they exploded among the two groups of barbarians, causing considerable casualties.

The savages of the Water Horse Tribe were already in a state of defeat and fleeing, with almost all their energy and spirit gone. After being attacked by three rounds of rune-blasting arrows, they completely collapsed and fled in a disorganized manner.

However, after suffering heavy casualties, the wild people of the Golden Rooster Tribe, led by a mid-level totem warrior, attempted a forced counterattack. Only fifty of the more than two hundred people who besieged the giant boy were left to continue the siege, and the remaining one hundred and fifty followed closely.

"Everyone return to your positions!"

Chai Yong took over the command at the first opportunity, and it took only a few breaths for more than 170 private soldiers and militiamen to take their positions and meet the attack of the Golden Rooster Tribe in a very orderly manner.

Qing Yi was very grateful for the days he spent in the Zuo Shi camp.

It was this valuable experience that made Chai Yong and the twenty militiamen qualified soldiers. Chai Yong became a qualified commander, and those militiamen became qualified sergeants and squad leaders.

There were nearly three hundred savages from the Golden Rooster tribe who pounced forward. In addition to a mid-level totem warrior leading the team, there were actually thirty junior totem warriors. Their overall strength was much greater than that of the Water Horse tribe.

Facing the savages of the Golden Rooster tribe with ferocious tattoos on their faces, Chai Yong gave his orders calmly and with the coordination of halberds, shields, spears, halberds, and bows and arrows, the entire team became an efficient killing machine.

"puff--"

"Click——"

The private armies and militiamen looked calm. Apart from Chai Yong's loud commands, the only sounds they could hear were the sounds of weapons slashing and stabbing into human bodies. They were not at all moved by the howling of the wild people from the Golden Rooster Tribe.

The orderly and efficient killing array and sophisticated armor and weapons crushed the wild folks.

What's more, there was Gongsun Wu blocking the intermediate totem warrior, and Qing Yi kept using rune arrows to accurately kill the primary totem warriors in the wild people's team, and he would immediately shoot an arrow wherever the situation was urgent.

Even the two giant boys seized the opportunity and frantically attacked the fifty wild warriors of the Golden Rooster Tribe who were besieging them. They actually defeated these fifty people with their brute force.

The rapidly increasing casualties had already caused the morale of the Golden Rooster tribe's people to drop rapidly. Two giant young men attacked them frantically from behind. At this time, Qing Yi seized the opportunity and shot an arrow to injure the intermediate totem warrior, which immediately caused the Golden Rooster tribe's people to completely collapse.

"Haha, they escaped the Water Horse Tribe, and there's still the Golden Rooster Tribe!"

"Kill them, kill them, brothers, chase them, don't let thousands of acres of land get away!"

The private armies and militiamen shouted excitedly, but they only chased for less than five miles before they were forcibly stopped by Qing Yi. They were reluctant to pack up their spoils.

This was the first time that he successfully commanded the army to defeat the wild folk warriors whose number was twice his own. Not only did he kill a large number of wild folks, but his own side did not lose a single person. Only a dozen people were injured and needed treatment. This made Chai Yong extremely excited.

Without even bothering to clean up the bloodstains, he ran over excitedly, "My Lord, we have been chasing the Shui Ma tribe all the way, and in the battle just now, we have beheaded at least 200 people. There are at least dozens more in the trench at Guqiu, which means more than 300 heads. When will we report this to the king?"

Mu Yi also followed over happily, grinning and counting on his fingers: "Great, the military merit of the heads of the wild people alone will be worth 1,500 acres of land. If you count the military merit of killing a dozen junior totem warriors, it will be almost 3,000 to 4,000 acres of land." Qing Yi couldn't help laughing and shook his head, "We can't be too high-profile now, if we take so many wild people's heads to report military merit.

Not only do we have to continue to fight against the attacks of the cat ghosts and the people of the Oze, but we also have to be wary of whether the officials in the court will make trouble. Although we are not afraid of those conspiracies and tricks, it is always a good thing to have less trouble.

Uncle Chai, first have everyone collect these heads, treat them with lime and store them away, and then take them out in the fall and winter to see what the king and the ministers have to say about it."

"okay!"

Although the military exploits could not be rewarded immediately, Chai Yong still left happily with Mu Yi, and was busy chopping off and collecting the heads of the wild people who died in the battle.

Seeing that everyone was busy, Qing Yi turned around and looked at the two nervous giant boys. Compared with the military merits gained by the wild people, this was the biggest gain of this battle.

"You, what do you want to do?"

The giant boy, who was 17 feet tall, almost four meters tall, actually showed a frightened expression when facing Qing Yi, who was less than half their height.

The last time I encountered them at Ozawa Yueye, I only saw a rough outline. This time, I finally saw their appearance clearly. They were taller and bigger, and their body proportions and facial features were no different from those of ordinary people.

If one must find a difference, it is that their skin is a little rougher. Overall, they are still two handsome giant boys, about twelve or thirteen years old.

The slightly older giant boy rubbed a ball of dark green herbs to apply to the wound, and asked with concern and vigilance: "Are you going to eat human flesh?"

Qing Yi noticed that the two young men looked anxious. They held the woolly rhinoceros bones tightly for self-defense, while carefully beating the two militiamen who were chopping off the heads of the wild people around them.

It was because they had been fighting for too long and had consumed too much energy and physical strength. Otherwise, with their frightened looks, they would have fled as soon as the battle ended. After all, Jiming Lake was ten miles to the east.

The vernacular novels circulated in Xing Guoting often include stories about wild people in the vast lake eating human flesh, giants eating human flesh, and sea creatures eating human flesh.

Unexpectedly, two giant boys dressed like barbarians were actually worried that they would eat human flesh. Qing Yi couldn't help but shook his head and laughed: "We don't eat human flesh."

"You don't eat human flesh?"

The two giant boys looked at Qing Yi in confusion, and asked curiously and puzzledly, "Since you don't eat human flesh, why are you chopping off these heads? That's too barbaric!"

"puff--"

Qing Yi was almost so angry at the contrast that he spit out blood. He explained helplessly, "It's just a souvenir."

There are huge differences between the people of Daze and the people of Xing State, and it is difficult for them to communicate normally. It is understandable that the two giant boys have such a big cultural difference with their own family.

In desperation, Qing Yi had to use his trump card and gave instructions to Gongsun Wu and others. Soon he returned with several prey such as giant antelopes, water deer, and six-tusked boars.

Qing Yi washed and skinned the prey himself, and said to the two giant boys with a smile: "Don't worry, we don't eat humans, we only eat other meat. We are also friends who fought side by side. I will treat you two to barbecue at noon today."
