My father is Emperor Wu of Han, how can I be different from him?

Chapter 123 Like a Madman

"The General of the Cavalry is going to hold a Fengshan ceremony?"

"Yes, the general has ordered me to prepare for the ceremony, which will begin at noon."

"Oh." Jin Midi nodded thoughtfully and bowed to Lu Bode, the governor of Youbeiping, and said, "Thank you for your help, Governor."

Lu Bode glanced at the Xiongnu nobles who were being brought into the tent one by one, and said sternly, "I am just following orders."

After handing over this group of people, the Youbeiping prefect turned around and left with his soldiers without saying a word.

Jin Midi certainly did not have such great power to call upon the most important group of prisoners in this battle, and Lu Bode was even less likely to act on his own.

The military order came from Huo Qubing.

As for why the general gave this order and what Jin Midi wanted these people to do, Lu Bode guessed something and walked quickly.

Don't ask, don't look, don't want to know.

What Jin Midi was going to do next would not be known to outsiders. As he watched the Youbeiping prefect and his entourage walk away, Jin Midi waved his hand.

A knight beside him rode away on his horse, and soon the grassland in the northwest corner of the Chanyu Court was blocked artificially.

Inside the makeshift tent.

It looks like a tent from the outside, but it is more like a small arena on the inside. In the middle of the tent is a sunken pit that is more than ten feet deep.

The group of Xiongnu nobles such as deputy kings, porters, and captains who were brought in earlier were now thrown into the pit and their restraints were removed.

"Boom."

A dagger was thrown into the pit.

Hu Yanke glanced at the dagger with an indifferent expression, then raised his head. The men standing in a circle at the edge of the pit looked straight at him with no emotion in their eyes.

"You have murderous aura, but it's not as pure as that of the Han army soldiers."

Hu Yanke turned to the man who had thrown down the dagger and said in a hoarse voice, "You don't look like a playboy who would take people's lives for fun."

"…What do you want to do?"

When questioned, the Xiongnu Youguduhou, who was only fifty years old, sat cross-legged on the ground, speaking in a steady tone, as if he had already put life and death aside.

He is like a cold and hard stone with no desires or ambitions, or like a madman who is ready to kill at any time.

In fact.

If Hu Yanke's mount had not been hit by an arrow, given his skills in killing several Han soldiers on the battlefield, plus his personal guards, it would have been impossible to capture him alive.

Some of the people brought here now, like Hu Yanke, are fierce and loyal Xiongnu generals with the blood of the Han army on their hands.

Another group of people are a bit the opposite. They have a more honorable status, but are obviously less courageous.

Exactly at this moment.

Hu Yanke's calmness infected the former, who glared at him fiercely, while the latter avoided his gaze and shrank back.

Regardless of their attitude, no one said a word.

This was not what Jin Midi wanted. He remained calm and said to himself, "You Gudu Hou, you guessed wrong about one thing."

Jin Midi stood at the edge of the pit, holding a crossbow in his hand, curled his lips, and said in a casual tone: "I like to kill people for fun."

As soon as the words were spoken, the arrow was shot.

call out!
A crossbow arrow hit a porter right in the heart. The arrow went through his chest and killed him instantly.

"you!"

"Bastard! What are you doing!?"

"Die for me!"

Jin Midi's arrow was like stirring up a hornet's nest, destroying the previous calmness of the Xiongnu generals. Some of them cursed, while others pounced on the fallen corpse.

What's worse, some of them looked extremely ferocious and tried hard to climb out of the pit.

But it's all in vain.

Jin Midi re-stringed the crossbow and said, "Only one person can walk out of the pit alive today."

"Either I randomly kill one person every once in a while, or..." He raised his chin and pointed at the dagger, "You guys solve it on your own."

"Pooh!"

Jin Midi's words were met with spit and even more fierce abuse. Hu Yanke's face also showed a fierce look. He stared at Jin Midi with his eyes and said in a low voice:
"Boy, if you don't kill me today, I will kill you in the future!"

"Wow." Jin Midi responded lightly, "I'm a little scared."

call out!
As he was afraid, his hands began to tremble and he accidentally pulled the trigger on the crossbow. Fortunately, the crossbow arrow hit another person exactly.

"what!"

A scream was heard. This time, the person who was shot was not the Hun general, but a man who was cowering behind. The part that was shot was no longer the heart, but the thigh.

The man fell to the ground, hugged his injured leg, and howled heartbreakingly.

“Ah——” “Help me! Help me! My legs!”

As the crying and wailing began, chaos and panic began to appear, but as soon as there was a slight sign, the man opened his mouth and screamed in pain, tears streaming down his face.

"puff!"

A crossbow arrow pierced his throat. The person who held the crossbow arrow was Hu Yanke, and the arrow came from the heart of the first person killed.

"sharp."

Jin Midi watched the other party take action, not only did he not stop him, but he praised him: "You kill the nephew of the Great Chanyu just as you say, you have courage."

Hu Yanke stood up, his right hand holding the crossbow arrow was covered in blood. He didn't even look at the dying waste on the ground, he just stared at Jin Midi without saying a word.

Jin Midi was not afraid at all. Instead, he pointed to Hu Yanke and said, "There is a knife and two crossbow arrows in the pit, a total of three deadly weapons."

"He's already got one and killed a man!"

Jin Midi looked at the other Xiongnu nobles and said, "I bet that with the skills of Yougudu Hou, he can kill all of you with just one arrow."

"Be the only one alive today."

"Bullshit!" A captain pointed at Jin Midi and cursed, "You little bastard, you..."

Before he could finish his words, whoosh!

Arrow through the heart.

It was Jin Midi again, "Sorry, my hands are shaking."

The explanation was perfunctory and the killing was casual. No, it can no longer be said to be casual, but wanton!

There was no warning at all, he just killed when he wanted to, like a madman!
Hu Yanke's breathing was heavy. The Xiongnu generals were angry, but some were timid and their eyes became more evasive.

They had previously hidden behind Hu Yanke, but after Hu Yanke ruthlessly killed Yizhixie's nephew, the nobles of similar status felt a chill in their hearts.

My feet unconsciously moved to the side.

"Na."

At this time, Jin Midi shook the crossbow again, "Time is running out."

No one moved in the pit. Those who were staring at him viciously were still staring at him, and those who wanted to curse but didn't dare to were also staring at him.

Only a few young men at the edge of the pit had fear on their faces, and their eyes sometimes stared at Jin Midi and sometimes glanced at the murder weapon on the ground.

The lying corpses, the pervasive smell of blood, the impending death, the motionless situation, all of these oppress the nerves of the cowardly!

"Ok."

Seeing that they didn't move, the 'madman' moved, and Jin Midi began to aim his crossbow again. This time, his movements were slightly slowed down.

He also vaguely pointed at a person with a struggling face at the edge of the pit...

bass!
When the crossbow was pointed at him, the man instinctively dodged, but for some reason, his legs seemed to be out of control and he rushed straight towards the dagger on the ground.

It may be for self-protection and a sense of security, or it may be for other reasons.

But this moment.

The thought that he was close to collapse no longer mattered because someone was faster than him!

laugh!
The dagger was first grabbed by a young man. There was a fight for it, and he slashed it with his hand, directly cutting the man's neck, and blood gushed out.

"It was him! He was the one who bumped into me!"

The murderer held the knife in both hands, his expression was even more shocked and terrified than the victim. The boy waved the knife left and right, shouting as if he was frightened.

"I didn't want to kill him!"

"I didn't think so!"

"Ah..." The man whose throat was cut on the opposite side covered his throat where blood was gushing out with one hand and pointed at the boy holding the knife with the other hand, his eyes full of disbelief.

With a thud, the body fell face down on the ground, and with this fall, the chaos could no longer be contained.

"Are you crazy!"

Some people angrily scolded the young man and rushed forward to subdue him, while several people pounced on a corpse on the ground, or to be more precise, on the crossbow arrow stuck in the corpse's thigh.

If you want to subdue the boy, you have to take the dagger from his hand first, but the boy did not surrender; if you want to get the crossbow, several people have to fight for it.

Conflict broke out.

Under the high pressure of death, in a crowded environment, you punch me, I stab you with an arrow, you grab, I stab, screams rang out, blood began to rush up, and then my head was overwhelmed.

After a while, the smell of blood in the pit became stronger.

Until, a roar -

"stop!"
