Chapter 77 Getting carried away
Autumn is high and fresh.

Thousands of trees are shaking and howling in the wind, and the angry autumn waves are majestic. The distant water and the sky are white, and the morning wind dyes the ground red.

have to! have to! have to!
A luxurious carriage pulled by two tall horses was traveling on the wide official road. In front, behind, and on both sides of the carriage, there were strong men with capable looks and murderous auras, who were not to be trifled with. The team led by this carriage was about a thousand people. In addition to this carriage, which was obviously the owner's residence, there were seven or eight carriages carrying women and children, as well as carts. There were large boxes on the carts, and the wheels left ruts on the ground.

It goes without saying that the leader of this team is either rich or noble.

"Shangqing, drink."

"Hahaha."

"Master, you don't love me anymore!"

……

Under the bright autumn sun, the luxurious carriage was filled with the sounds of birds and the chirping of birds. Some of the brave ones caught a few vague outlines through the falling veil.

call out!
Suddenly, an arrow shot out, carrying endless murderous aura, and shot towards the carriage at an incredible speed, filled with endless hatred.

clang!
One of the knights guarding the carriage suddenly drew his sword from its sheath, and the bronze sword slashed out like lightning, cutting the arrow off as it was about to hit the carriage. When the arrow broke into two pieces and fell to the ground, a crisp sound was heard.

"Kill!"

"Brothers, kill this bastard Guo Kai!"

"Come on!"

……

As soon as the arrows landed, shouts of anger and hatred rang out from all directions on the official road. Along with them, hundreds of ragged, unkempt men, vaguely recognizable as Zhao army uniforms, armed with forks, hoes, axes, or at best rusty swords, rushed towards the team.

The slogans that came one after another revealed the identity of the leader of this team: Guo Kai!

Once the Prime Minister of Zhao State, now the number one rebel of Zhao State.

After Guo Kai's identity as a traitor was revealed, the people of Zhao remembered the hatred of losing their country and hated Guo Kai to the core. Guo Kai himself knew that if he stayed in Zhao, no one would be willing to sell him a grain of food, and even if he wanted to leave home, a lot of people would spit at him.

After taking out the wealth he had embezzled and accepted in bribes for decades, as well as the wealth given by the Qin State, Guo Kai took his family and confidants on the road to the Qin capital, Xianyang. Guo Kai, who was not a fool, guessed that there must be many people who wanted to kill him along the way, so he spared no expense and recruited hundreds of good rangers to protect the safety of his family.

"Leave no one behind!"

Although Guo Kai in the carriage did not show up, he knew what had happened. He stopped playing with the two beautiful maids, picked up his dignity, and gave an order.

"Here!"

After receiving Guo Kai's order, hundreds of skilled rangers who were hired by Guo Kai at a large sum of money drew their swords, with endless murderous aura, waving their weapons and slashing at the oncoming enemies.

puff!puff!puff!

These rangers, of course, did not know how to form a military formation, but how could a few hundred scattered soldiers who had been disrupted and did not even have a decent weapon be their opponent? The rangers, riding on tall horses, used the impact of their horses to bring down their swords and knives, chopping down the Zhao soldiers one by one, and hot blood splattered everywhere.

In a short moment, the spacious official road turned into a bloody road.

"Hahaha."

Guo Kai in the carriage caught the scene of Zhao soldiers being slaughtered by his own men and laughed. "What a bunch of idiots! Since I dared to betray the State of Zhao, how could I not be on guard against you coming to seek revenge on me?"

At the end of the speech, Guo Kai, who had a pointed face, was as thin as a stick, but liked to wear loose long robes, almost danced with joy. He wanted to lift the curtain of the carriage and mock these people for not knowing the consequences.

The two beautiful maids accompanying Guo Kai felt disgusted when they saw Guo Kai's complacent look. Although, as prostitutes with a pair of beautiful arms who had been slept with thousands of men, they had fed their consciences to dogs, but Guo Kai's complacency in his betrayal still disgusted them.

"Shangshang qing," after a moment of stagnation, a beautiful maid with a seductive and charming manner held up a bronze wine jar and handed it to Guo Kai's mouth, dispelling the slight discomfort in his heart and flatteringly said, "This is the fifth wave of assassinations against you since we left Handan City. You are really courting death!"

"You are a very smart minister." Another beautiful maid said, unwilling to let her take the cake, "I believe that when we get to Xianyang City, you will be highly valued by the King of Qin!"

"You guys can talk."

Guo Kai was very happy to receive the flattery of the two beautiful maids, and he hugged them in his arms, one on the left and one on the right.

Boom!

Suddenly, a heavy sound came over.

Accompanied by a muffled sound, a murderous aura like a cloud suddenly crashed into the world from the broken sky, making the team led by Guo Kai terrified.

The hundreds of knights recruited by Guo Kai inevitably ignored the safety of the surroundings when they were encircling the attacking Zhao army. Seven or eight heavy chariots rushed out from the woods on both sides of the official road, and driven by the Zhao army, they rushed towards Guo Kai's team with great momentum.

A chariot is usually a single-axle, two-wheeled, square carriage, driven by four or two horses. There are three armored soldiers on the chariot, the middle one is responsible for driving and is called "Yuzhe", the one on the left is responsible for long-range shooting and is called "She" or "Duoshe", and the one on the right is responsible for close-range hand-to-hand combat and is called "Rongyou".

The "chariot" in the so-called country of a thousand chariots and the force of ten thousand chariots refers to the chariot.

"what!"

"help!"

"Get out of the way, everyone!"

……

At that time, stirrups, high-bridge saddles, and horseshoes had not yet been invented, and the impact of cavalry was far from comparable to that of chariots. Moreover, the hundreds of rangers recruited by Guo Kai were not cavalry at all, but just warriors on horseback. Faced with the rushing chariots, the hundreds of rangers who were used to being free and undisciplined were frightened.

Amid screams and wails, the rangers were knocked off their horses by the powerful impact of the chariots, and before they could get up, they were turned into meat paste.

"Revenge for General Li Mu!"

"Brothers, revenge!"

"Kill!"

……

Thousands of Zhao soldiers followed closely behind the chariots, their eyes filled with heart-pounding hatred. Their words filled with endless hatred caused the temperature to drop sharply, as if entering a cold winter ahead of time.

puff!puff!puff!
Thousands of Zhao soldiers swept through Guo Kai's team like a rolling black tide. Most of these Zhao soldiers had served under Li Mu and hated Guo Kai, the traitor who killed Li Mu and betrayed Zhao. They rushed into Guo Kai's team, joined forces with their companions, and ruthlessly killed all living things in the team.

No matter whether it was Guo Kai's slaves, family members, or even the livestock in the team, none of them were spared and were chopped into meat paste by the Zhao soldiers who were filled with endless hatred.
