Chapter 725 (2/2)
”Ah?” Bai Xiaowen was angry and funny. The countrymen could make up everything. After listening to others, they dared to say anything. Did the first emperor revive the terracotta warriors? Why didn't he say that Lord Chongzhen came back from the coal mountain! Bai Xiaowen thought that this should be a mixture of the news that Feng dashai died in Lishan some time ago and the news that Liu dashai's Zhensong army attacked Xi'an city.
Seeing Bai Xiaowen holding him for a long time without talking, the salesman broke free of Bai Xiaowen's hand and fled to the city.
”No!” Bai Xiaowen thought, ”there is no wind in the hole. Now the news that Liu dashai is going to fight Xi'an is boiling, but there is no shadow. He can't afford such a storm. Most of it is Liu dashai who has fought!”
Bai Xiaowen is regretting why he didn't escape from Xi'an earlier. Now he can't get out - it's more dangerous to go out. It's fatal to meet soldiers. The soldiers and bandits of Zhensong army are more terrible than bandits. White wolves didn't kill as much when they were in Henan!
At this time, Bai Xiaowen had to stay in the city at the homes of his acquaintances, or live in the school. When the warlords burned, killed and looted, the ordinary people were really miserable, but at least the school was better. When they met some famous warlords, they would restrain their soldiers from looting the school.
Bai Xiaowen moved without delay and ran decisively in the direction of the school.
In the direction beyond his sight, smoke and dust billowed on the Loess Plateau and countless bronze chariots were running towards Xi'an city. On the vast land, chariots pulled out a long chariot line up to two kilometers wide. Generally speaking, chariots should drive slowly when they don't charge, But the army has been maintaining this speed.
They bypassed the more complex terrain and farmland and skimmed over the wasteland.
Ignoring everyone on their route of action, the frightened Shaanxi people avoided these bronze luster and expressionless troops, and the army drove by. Except for the sound of wheels rolling, the whole army didn't say a word. Some civilians didn't have time to avoid. They just pulled a chariot and bypassed the man who was extremely frightened in the center of the vehicle array.
The chariot galloped past him. The man felt that the three edged thorns rotating on the wheels crossed his lower legs, and the wind swept by the spears waved by the copper people on the car roared in his ears.
A gang of local ruffians who were bought by Liu Zhenhua and are now the ”head” of the Zhensong army, unknowingly blocked the way of the vehicle array into Xi'an. If they could see clearly, of course, they would not have the courage to resist, but after being incorporated by Liu Zhenhua, the live local ruffians received arms and military pay - still insufficient. They want to rob on the road now.
The looted bandits would not have discipline and advance or retreat. They had no time to retreat from the route of the vehicle array, so they had to shoot into the rolling smoke ahead in the hope that the gunfire could deter the unknown army.
But even if the bullet hits the chariot, it will only break a small white spot on the bronze chariot, which will disappear as soon as it is blown by the dust. The ancient bronze doesn't even lose a trace of rust. They don't have time to shoot a second shot, and the vehicle array flies past them. The soldiers on the vehicle calmly harvest their heads with their spears, leaving dozens of bodies. The huge vehicle array doesn't even slow down, He drove out of here quickly.
Upstairs in Xi'an, the soldiers on guard saw yellow smoke rising in the distance
