Chapter 283 Massacre (Third Update)
If someone is frequently shot by arrows, he will know that being hit by a professional archer with a crossbow while running at a distance of sixty meters is absolutely fatal.

Gao Yuan followed the team out of the Hongding Building. He used to brag to others that he had won the school’s 100-meter championship three times in the high school sports meet.

But in reality, he was runner-up for three years, while his childhood friend Shen Han won the championship.

The two were neighbors and grew up together. From childhood to adulthood, Shen Han was more popular with girls than him. He had better handwriting, better grades, and was even better at sports.

When the two walked together, he felt that he might be Shen Han's supporting role for the rest of his life.

When they reached the snow-capped mountains, Shen Han got into a fight with others over food and was struck on the head with a fire axe, dying instantly.

Before his death, Shen Han asked Gao Yuan to eat him.

Gao Yuan ate Shen Han's brain, hands, and feet, and also found an opportunity to kill the person who had attacked Shen Han with a fire axe.

From then on, Gao Yuan often told others that he had won championships in sports meets since he was a child, was popular with girls, and had beautiful handwriting.

To maintain his persona as a former high school sports champion, Gao Yuan sprints very fast, fearing that if he runs too slowly, others will doubt him.

But when he saw the imposing array of spears and the archers behind him, his throat tightened and went dry. Gao Yuan suddenly regretted running so fast.

He wanted to slow down, but the large army behind him swept him up like a flood, leaving him no choice but to move forward.

Even though he tried to back away as much as possible, he only moved back two steps, and his position was still in the front.

The other side made a move.

He heard a strong, resonant "Release".

Three meters to his right front, a tall man standing at 1.9 meters was struck in the shoulder by a black afterimage, as if hit by a sledgehammer. He staggered two steps, suddenly fell to the ground, and rolled twice.

The people behind him stepped on him and continued to rush forward.

To the left front, a burly man with a shaved head raised a small round shield and roared.

The roar was only half-finished when the sound abruptly stopped. An arrow pierced through the round shield, running from his chest to his back, with only a small section of the arrowhead visible.

The people in the front row collapsed like wheat being dumped, a whole bunch of them falling over with a thud.

Before Gao Yuan could react, he was back in the front row.

Exposed to the gaze of the person opposite him, Gao Yuan opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something.

Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his stomach. As he ran, he felt as if he had been punched by something. The intense pain made him want to reach out and cover his stomach, but as soon as his fingers touched his lower abdomen, he felt a hot, sticky substance, along with a small piece of feather and an arrow tail.

The momentum of running caused him to stumble forward three steps, his limbs trembling weakly, and he knelt heavily on the muddy ground.

Is it really this painful to be shot by an arrow? Even running becomes a luxury.

Someone stepped heavily on his back, and Gao Yuan groaned.

That son of a bitch, it seems like he stepped on an arrow in his back.

It felt like countless tiny knives were cutting inside my stomach.

One kick, two kicks, three kicks.
In a daze, Gao Yuan seemed to see Shen Han.

Shen Han's face was contorted with rage as he cursed at him. Gao Yuan suddenly remembered that when Shen Han had a conflict with someone that day, he could have run away, but it seemed that he had locked him out.

The people who rushed out of the Red Cauldron Building fell down in rows. Those who were not wearing armor had no ability to defend themselves against crossbows.

"A massacre, this is pure massacre!"

Seeing this scene, Yang Long felt a chill run down his spine. He had thought that Qin Ziwen and his men hadn't sent many people, and that the main force for this battle would still have to rely on their urban village.

Now it seems that is not the case.

Looking at Qin Meng's well-trained team.

A thought inexplicably popped into Yang Long's mind.

No wonder that historically, rebel armies were always easily suppressed by the regular army of the imperial court.

This is not even in the same league!
After comparing them, Yang Long realized what true elites were.

He also wanted to form such a force.

The main force that had charged out of Hongding International finally collapsed after witnessing their comrades being slaughtered in droves without any resistance. Those in front refused to advance, preferring to collide with the troops behind them.

The two teams collided, one after the other, resulting in a large-scale stampede.

"Continue." Du Yu did not order a stop.

The crossbowmen continued firing until all twenty arrows they carried had been fired.

When the last arrow was fired and the bowstring was released, many people's arms sank uncontrollably. They rubbed their arms, their faces covered in sweat.

The area below the Hongding Building has been turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

Blood flowed into streams, and hundreds of corpses lay scattered on the ground.

The front and back were covered with arrows.

"Ugh!" A resident of an urban village suddenly retched.

They had never seen such a horrific scene.

Not only them, but even many of the Qin Alliance members in the front row, holding spears, had cold hands and feet and were trembling slightly.

"How could this be! How could this happen!" On the rooftop, Mei Yuqing, who witnessed this scene, looked horrified. She wasn't afraid of the dead people downstairs; many people had died in the building before, and she wasn't unfamiliar with it.

What frightened her was that those being slaughtered were all people whose blood had been spilled by them, which not only demonstrated that the two sides were not on the same level in terms of combat strength.

This further demonstrates that the other party didn't treat them as human beings at all! They showed no mercy when they attacked.

"We can't fight them on the plains. We have to call everyone back so we can hide back in the building!" Mei Yuqing said quickly. Since the other side didn't launch a strong attack into the building, it meant they didn't want a fight in the building either.

Mei Yuqing could roughly guess Qin Meng's thoughts; the other side probably wanted to eliminate them with minimal cost.

She simply did not do as the other party wished.

If you want to kill them, then come inside the building. Even if it kills you, you'll take a piece of their flesh.

In fact, even without her saying it, this direct confrontation had terrified countless people, who fled at breakneck speed.

"President Yang, could you please send someone to retrieve those arrows?" Du Yu said to Yang Long.

Yang Long nodded.

He gave the order, and many people in the urban village, holding shields and bending over, went over to pull arrows from the corpses.

Upstairs, some people were throwing things downstairs.

Several unlucky people were hit and suffered serious injuries.

The residents of the urban village quickly retreated.

Du Yu waved his hand, "Catapults, bombard the building! Load them with rubble!"

"Bang bang bang!"

After several rounds of launching, the upstairs area fell silent.

The last vestige of the Blood Letter Gang's stubbornness was also quelled.

When someone went to pull out the arrow, it was quiet behind the window; no one dared to stick their head out and throw anything.

As everyone was packing their things, a muffled sound came from the distant horizon.

"Boom~"

The western horizon darkened, and thick, leaden clouds slowly approached from afar.

A strong wind picked up on the sea.

"It's going to rain." Qin Ziwen looked at the sky, his brows furrowed slightly.

I don't know how heavy or how long this rain will last; I hope it won't affect the upcoming battles.
