Chapter 459: The hostages are in hand, and there can be escape
The surrendered Qin soldiers were gathered near the city gate from all directions. They had no weapons in their hands, and some even had their armor confiscated.
There is no way, compared to weapons, armor is much more valuable in the military.
Weapons require little material and are easy to make, but a complete set of armor requires a huge amount of manpower and material resources.
Di Qin's armor is of course a good thing. They have already defeated the army, so there is no need to wear armor.
Naturally, they were ordered to take off their clothes and transport them to the Jin army's warehouse.
Groups of civilian Qin soldiers passed by Wang Mi. He didn't even look at them. He only paid attention to that one person!
Golden light path!
He remembered the man's face!
As long as he appears in front of Wang Mi, Wang Mi can guarantee that he will never let him escape!
"Zhiyuan!"
"Look, who is that?"
Wang Mi was galloping on his horse, completely ignoring the affairs around him, but his companions could not abandon him.
Liu Yu took care of any matters in the military tent, so He Mai followed Wang Mi closely and searched together.
Unlike the anxious Wang Mi, although He Mai was also anxious, he didn't know exactly why Wang Mi was anxious.
As a result, his vision has broadened. He is not just focusing on finding people, but other things in Xiangyang City are also his concern.
He saw the ruins of Xiangyang City and experienced a thrilling battle. The once bustling city was filled with broken walls, falling roof tiles, and many mud walls were also covered with arrow holes.
He also saw the unwillingness and fear in the eyes of the defeated Qin soldiers.
They were unwilling to admit their failure at all, but they were powerless to do anything about the current situation. Compared with the pain of failure, the soldiers were more concerned about their own destiny.
How would the Jin army, which came in force with the promise of a great victory, treat these foreign soldiers?
Whether they should be captured and used again, or whether they should be slaughtered on the spot, everyone was worried. They really hoped that the Jin army could give their brothers a happy life.
He Mai's eyes were wandering back and forth between the sky and the earth. Soon, he discovered something unusual!
Although Xiangyang City is prosperous with merchants and has many shops selling everything, its scale is still not comparable to that of the capital city of Jiankang.
Shops are generally one-story small houses with only four mud walls. Some slightly taller buildings are either outposts used by Qin soldiers to guard the city, or restaurants and other entertainment venues.
He Mai saw from a distance that several people suddenly appeared on the roof tiles of a small shop with a wine flag hanging on the second floor.
It’s not surprising that a few people appeared, but what’s strange is the behavior of these people!
I saw a dozen armored soldiers suddenly appearing on the second floor of the restaurant. They all held steel knives in their hands, and each of them was filled with murderous intent. Although He Mai was still far away, he was still aware of the murderous intent.
These people are ready to kill!
The people who appeared in Xiangyang City at this time and could wear armor were either Jin soldiers or Qin soldiers!
And these people who appeared on the second floor of the restaurant must be Qin Bing!
He Mai could tell at a glance that those people were Qin soldiers, not just because they were wearing armor.
Just because, in front of these people, there are other people, some more people, and the reason why these people are controlled by the armored soldiers is because they are just unarmed Xiangyang people!
He Mai looked up and saw it, and immediately shouted. Wang Mi looked in his direction and gasped.
"As expected!"
"They really did it!"
"quick!"
"Let's go take a look!"
The reins shook, and Wang Mi rushed out again, at an even faster speed.
The Jin army was racing against time below the city, but the Qin soldiers on the roof of the restaurant did not waste any time.
Moreover, for them, time at this moment is more important.
Among a group of frantic Qin soldiers, the one standing at the front, holding a steel knife and holding the villagers hostage, was the team leader Jin Guangdao that Wang Mi was looking for.
Since Cong Wangmi was lucky enough to survive an arrow, Jin Guangdao quickly gathered a group of soldiers and followed him to the other side of the street, avoiding the Jin army's front.
Why did you do this?
In the beginning, of course, it was to escape and save one's life.
However, after charging for a while, they found that they could not escape at all. Xiangyang City was surrounded from the inside to the outside by the Jin Army.
Let alone a human being, not even a fly can fly out!
What's even more frightening is that they discovered that these Jin troops who rushed into the city were not just trying to force the Qin soldiers to surrender. As long as the opportunity was right, they would not mind killing a few more Qin soldiers!
And these soldiers wearing Qin army armor are the most dangerous targets in the city. Once they fall into the hands of the Jin army, there is absolutely no possibility of survival!
That’s not true!
It has been three years since I took control of Xiangyang City. In these three years, in Xiangyang City, the Di and Qin soldiers have almost always walked sideways!
The wind gets the wind, the rain gets the rain, who dares to make a mistake?
Why did his status plummet as soon as he changed, and he became like this?
no!
Di people absolutely cannot accept such a fate of being at the mercy of others!
Even if they can never recapture Xiangyang City, they still have to try their best!
Thinking of this, Jin Guangdao became jealous, and his sinful hands reached out to the people of Xiangyang City.
These thieves!
Finally made it this far!
Jin Guangdao took the few remaining brothers and broke into several houses and took all the people they could find, regardless of age or sex, to high places in the city.
This high place cannot just be high, it must be more conspicuous so that the Jin army can see the target at a glance, but it is still unable to form an effective attack.
Originally, Queershan outside Qixia Gate was the best choice. However, unfortunately, Qixia Gate had long been controlled by the Jin army.
So, Jin Guangdao escorted a group of poor people and returned to the city again. He found the tallest building in Xiangyang City and stood on the trembling roof tiles!
"Team leader!"
"The Jin army seems to have discovered us!"
Below the sight of Qin Bing, a group of Jin soldiers had arrived quickly. Looking at their hateful eyes, it was clear that they had discovered what Qin Bing had done.
"Very good!"
"I've been waiting for it for a long time!"
Jin Guangdao was not afraid to laugh back. He raised the steel knife and put it directly on the necks of the people of Xiangyang!
And the poor person he held hostage was a little girl in her twenties!
correct!
now it's right!
Wang Mi saw this scene below the restaurant and immediately confronted the evil man who held the young lady hostage and Jin Guangdao.
This is the man who escaped from his divine arrow!
It made him lose face!
His face turned into ashes, and Wang Mi could recognize him!
This is indeed something he can do. He has to pick the persimmons soft and pinch them softly. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this.
Specializing in kidnapping young ladies and threatening the Jin army, isn't that what these evil beasts of Di and Qin are capable of doing!
