Chapter 1558 The War Begins and the Killer Arrives
At Liu Yun's command, five thousand cavalrymen, full of confidence, grabbed their halberds and charged towards Chu Chen's camp amidst shouts of battle.
The reason Liu Yun killed the envoy was that he didn't want the cavalrymen to know that what they were facing was their nightmare.
He was also gambling at that moment, betting that Chu Chen didn't have a weapon that could counter cavalry.
Because his intelligence was very thorough, he knew that there were very few weapons in the entire Song Kingdom that could counter cavalry, and most of them had been taken back by Tang Yun.
Therefore, he believed that Chu Chen did not have many machine guns.
Gou Shengzi watched as the cavalry charged directly towards him, a hint of excitement flashing across his face: "Machine gunners, prepare. Open fire when they are 300 meters away."
At Gou Shengzi's command, about a hundred machine gun positions immediately emerged from the crowd. With a series of clicking sounds of guns being cocked, Gou Shengzi raised his hand.
He was waiting, waiting for the enemy to come within firing range.
Five hundred meters... Four hundred meters... Two hundred and fifty meters... Bang! Gou Shengzi fired a signal with his pistol.
In an instant, the hundred machine gun positions spat out bursts of fire.
One second the cavalrymen had a disdainful look on their faces, and the next, bullets pierced their bodies and their horses.
The cavalrymen who were closest to the enemy fell in large numbers in an instant.
At that moment, only two words came to their minds: doomed.
Upon witnessing this scene, Master Liuyun, who was watching the battlefield from behind, immediately had the thought of escaping.
He never expected that Chu Chen could create so many powerful weapons in such a short time. According to the intelligence he had, even in the Song Dynasty, it took them almost a year.
Moreover, Gian is nowhere to be found, and there are no people making weapons. Where did these things come from?
That's why he was so certain that Chu Chen couldn't produce many of these weapons.
Little did he know that Fatty Tiger had traveled a long way to deliver weapons, bringing Chu Chen all the supplies he had previously stored in the cave.
Liu Yun was gambling at this moment, betting that Lu You could capture Chu Chen, then feed him the pill, and the matter would be settled.
Within half an hour, the cavalrymen were torn to pieces by the powerful machine gun fire and could no longer exert their full strength.
Looking at the situation on the battlefield, Gou Shengzi immediately ordered the infantry behind him, "Infantry, attack the city!"
Upon receiving the order, the machine gunners immediately ceased their attack, and the infantry split into intersecting formations, advancing step by step towards the defending troops in the north of the city.
Although the garrison in the north of the city was unwilling, under Liu Yun's orders, they drew their swords and charged towards Chu Chen's army.
In an instant, shouts of killing, gunshots, and cries of agony filled the air.
Looking at the battle before him, Chu Chen already knew the outcome; this battle should be won easily.
So they simply closed the carriage door and waited there for the final victory in the battle.
At this moment, all the soldiers went to the battlefield to earn military merits, and even his guards were sent by Chu Chen to train.
So, he leisurely set up a table and a canopy outside the carriage and brewed himself a pot of tea.
Enjoying this moment that is both filled with killing and quiet.
He picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and then his body rolled to the side.
Looking up, I saw an arrow firmly planted on the table, its fletching trembling slightly.
At the same time, he had already gripped the pistol at his waist and fired several bullets in the direction of the arrows.
To Chu Chen's surprise, although his marksmanship wasn't the most accurate, he had never missed a shot at such close range when trying to hit a human-shaped target.
But this time he failed. The next moment, a figure appeared in front of him like a ghost.
The man was ugly, thin but strong.
The horrific scars on its face made it impossible for him to recognize that the thing in front of him was a person.
"Heh, you're fighting on the front lines, and you're launching a sneak attack from the rear, all by yourself. Is my target the only one?"
"Haha, everyone says Chu Chen is smart, but it seems he's not a complete fool after all."
Chu Chen coldly scrutinized the ugly man before him. A familiar feeling welled up in his heart, including his voice and mannerisms, but he just couldn't figure out who he was.
So he said, "I have no grudge against you. There is no need for you to go through the trouble of crossing the battlefield to kill me."
"No grudges, no enmity... Hahahaha!"
"Chu Chen, do you know how many enemies you have!"
Looking at the pistol in Chu Chen's hand, Lu You shook his head: "Chu Chen, put down those pieces of junk in your hand. They're useless to me. I've heard that you, Chu Chen, are also a martial artist. Today, I, Lu You, will make you understand why you lost."
"You're the router?"
"That's right, what? You finally feel scared when you hear my name?"
Looking at the road in front of him, Chu Chen couldn't figure out what grudge he had against this guy.
He was brought to the North City to assemble an army of tens of thousands to attack me, and judging from his assassination attempt today, perhaps his only purpose is to kill me.
They painstakingly assembled an army of tens of thousands of people, only to kill him. This is an act of vengeance, worthy of being called the murderer of one's father.
"Who are you anyway?"
“You are not qualified to know who I am. I just want to tell you that when you were in power, you could do whatever you wanted. You colluded with Dong Shilan and harmed the innocent. When you did these things, did you think about today?”
Did they harm innocent people together with Dong Shilan?
Chu Chen flipped through the memories in his mind. He had been in this world for almost thirty years. When had he ever harmed an innocent person?
The people he killed were all heinous criminals.
Could it be that... innocence is merely his imagination?
So the only ones who have fought against Dong Shilan are the Mei family, no, the Mei family!
"Are you a member of the Mei family?"
When Lu You saw that Chu Chen had seen through his identity, a look of disbelief flashed across his face.
It's just that his face was completely ruined and unrecognizable, but Chu Chen, who had lived for hundreds of years, still confirmed his guess in his eyes.
"Hahaha, I didn't expect it to be just a remnant of the Mei family. Do you even know what an innocent person is?"
"Back when my business was thriving, your Mei family wanted to kill me. In the end, I was the innocent one. I just don't know, who are you to the Mei family?"
"I know a few members of the Mei family, especially that idiot Mei Du from your family... tsk tsk tsk, I ruined his manhood."
"Chu Chen..."
