In the wilderness, a transport unit of the expeditionary army consisting of more than a thousand people was heading south.
However, if one took a closer look, they would discover that 90% of the people in the transport unit were Central Plains refugees.
The refugees' clothes were extremely dirty, and there were holes in their bodies and shoes. Some of their shoes had even split open like crocodiles' mouths. In order to prevent their feet from suffering, they even hastily tied their shoes with hemp ropes to prevent them from falling off at any time.
Hundreds of refugees were being escorted by the expeditionary army's barbarians. Even though they outnumbered the barbarians by several times, no one dared to resist or escape.
Actually, if everyone wanted to escape, the 100-odd barbarians would only be able to catch up to 300 to 400 of the 900 people at most. The others could still escape.
But the problem was that no one wanted to be the unlucky 300 to 400 people who died.
The expeditionary army's efficiency in transporting food was much worse than that of the Central Plains' people. They only used simple carts to stack supplies high up.
At the beginning, they also wanted to use the Central Plains' vehicles, but it was too difficult to find drivers.
In this era, vehicles were not a common item. Ordinary people and refugees had never even ridden in a car before, let alone driven one.
Therefore, they could only continue using their stupid methods.
Fortunately, the Central Plains people they captured were quite obedient, and Zuoyun Mount was also surrounded by the army. No one should come out and cause any more trouble.
Just as P5092 had judged, after the expeditionary army surrounded Zuoyun Mount, the transport troops felt a lot more at ease.
At this moment, a refugee suddenly fell to the ground while walking. A barbarian walked up to him and said coldly, "Get up."
The refugees around him looked over with numb expressions. No one went to help the person who had fallen to the ground, nor did anyone say anything to help him.
When the barbarian saw the refugee on the ground not reacting, he sneered and stepped on his hand. "Don't play dead. Your breathing has betrayed you. If you continue to play dead, I don't mind letting you really die here."
When the barbarian's boot stepped on the refugee's hand, he let out a loud wail. "Please spare me! I really can't walk anymore!"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw the barbarian suddenly raise his foot, and his chest caved in.
With just one stomp, the refugee died. A large amount of blood gushed out of his mouth.
Man 'zi said coldly, "If anyone else feigns death, then they'll suffer the same fate as him."
In the eyes of the expeditionary army, the lives of the people of the Central Plains were as insignificant as grass.
Among the group of refugees, a young man had an indignant look in his eyes as he said to an old man in front of him, "Are we not going to do anything about it?"
The old man in front said, "It's possible to kill these barbarians, but the Young Marshal and the others are still trapped in Zuoyun Mount. What's the point of killing over a hundred barbarians? This time, our goal is to infiltrate the expeditionary army. Only by assassinating their high-ranking general can we have a chance to save Zuoyun Mount. "
The young man thought for a moment, then suppressed the indignation in his eyes. He and the old man continued pushing the cart forward. "Shouldn't the Young Marshal and the rest be at Mount Youyu? Why did they suddenly come to Zuoyun Mount?"
"What do you know?" The old man lowered his voice and said, "The move to Zuoyun Mount is a brilliant one. When I told the Commander-in-Chief about this, he said that there are experts in the army. Do you know why? It's because 6,000 people are actually useless on the battlefield. But now that they've come to Zuoyun Mount, they're like a knife that's stuck at the expeditionary army's throat. They're forcing the barbarians to attack the city. This way, the pressure on the Wang Clan will be reduced by a lot. "
"But it's too dangerous for them to stay at Zuoyun Mount," the young man mumbled.
"Dangerous? With the Young Marshal around, there's nothing to be afraid of. Don't worry, as long as we move quickly, the Young Marshal and the others will be fine," the old man said.
"Then why did you say that you're going to assassinate the barbarian's high-ranking general? Why don't you tell me your plan so that I can have an idea of what to do?" the young man said.
"Plan? With my strength, why would I need a plan? "The old man said," Don't worry, everything is under my control. I've calculated the time, and this transport team will arrive at Mt. Daniu before sunset today … "
Just as he finished speaking, the old man suddenly saw a barbarian's head explode. The young man said in a daze, "I reckon that this transport team won't be able to reach Mt. Daniu before sunset …"
The old man was stunned. Who the hell fired the shot? There should have been no resistance left at the rear, so why did someone suddenly jump out to kill the barbarians?
Before he could think about it, he saw another barbarian's chest splattered with blood.
After the sniper bullet pierced through the barbarian's chest, the long and narrow bullet did not stop in the barbarian's body. Instead, it hit the supplies beside the old man after piercing through the barbarian's body!
The old man quickly looked for the bullet in the vehicle while no one was paying attention. When he saw the bullet, he was stunned again. "A 12.7mm tungsten core armor-piercing shell? This person is here to kill the barbarians, but I wonder how many people there are. "
The 12.7mm tungsten core armor-piercing shell was a sub-caliber rotation-stabilized armor-piercing shell. It had the advantages of high speed, low trajectory, short flight time, high accuracy, high kinetic energy, and powerful armor-piercing power.
Under normal circumstances, this thing was used by anti-material sniper rifles to attack tanks. Now that it was used on the barbarians, it was of course very useful.
The young man asked, "What should we do now?"
"Continue hiding. If it's just a sniper ambushing us here, he shouldn't be able to pose too much of a threat to this transport team." The old man said, "Remember, our target isn't here …"
But at this moment, the old man suddenly realized that the bullet in his hand was gradually disappearing!
Wait, this was a bullet conjured by a superpower!
The old man looked in the direction of the sniper. "Holy shit, it's Young Marshal?!"
With that, the old man did not care about hiding anymore. He jumped onto the handcart and waved at the sniper while shouting, "Young Marshal, it's Big Bluff. I'm here."
The young man was dumbfounded by this scene. Didn't you just say that you were going to continue hiding? Why did you suddenly become so excited?!
The barbarians of the transport team were attracted by Big Bluff's actions. However, Big Bluff changed his cowardly demeanor and grinned at the barbarians who had surrounded him. "There's only about a hundred of you, and you're not even enough for me to crush. If I had known that Young Marshal was going to rob you guys, I wouldn't have bothered pretending along the way. Wouldn't it have been better if I had killed you guys earlier?!"
With that, Big Bluff took the initiative to pounce on the hundreds of barbarians.
In the distance, Ren Xiaosu picked up his spotting scope and looked at the transport team. To be honest, he really did not expect to encounter Big Bluff here.
Ren Xiaosu carried the black sniper rifle and walked towards the transport team. At this moment, he suddenly wondered if he could do something more interesting after meeting up with a fierce teammate like Big Bluff.
