Chapter 312: Chapter 312

When the Dazi were about to attack, Pei Shu’er poured a layer of gasoline on the ground and then set it on fire.

The gasoline quickly spread into those military tents.

The Dazi were too busy to care for themselves and had to extinguish the fire.

After putting out the fire, the Dazi were exhausted and had suffered heavy casualties.

They could only rest alongside Pei Shu’er and the others, but the lines between Han and Chu River were clearly drawn.

This rest allowed the Gulan Military Camp to catch their breath and even cook a decent meal.

It was finally a way to make up for the earlier deficits, and everyone ate their fill.

Meanwhile, the Dazi, having no means to eat, could only sit and rest after the battle.

Under such circumstances, naturally, it was the best opportunity.

After taking a break, the military physician had mostly treated the wounded, and Tang Zan said, "Attack."

At this moment, the Dazi had just rested for less than an hour.

The other soldiers quickly got up and charged at the Dazi once more.

Meanwhile, the Dayan soldiers all noticed the people from the Tang Family’s main house located behind the Dazi.

Tang Qingrou, Tang Peilin, Mrs. Li, and Aunt Lin.

Except for Tang Qingrou, who appeared glamorous, dressed in Dazi attire, and leaning in the arms of a Dazi Commander.

The other three looked very haggard, and no matter how nice their clothing was, it couldn’t hide their wretched appearance.

All four glared hatefully at Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan, with Tang Qingrou even shaking Tuoba Jun’s arm in a tender voice.

"Commander, that man in the Deputy General’s uniform and the woman in the blue dress beside him are our family’s enemies."

Pei Shu’er was a bit dumbfounded; this Tang Qingrou, how could she sleep with so many?

The men she slept with seemed like an upgrading process, getting better and better.

This... is also a kind of skill.

She originally thought that the missing Tang Qingrou’s end would be tragic, but it turned out she was doing better and better.

At least this Commander seemed to genuinely pamper Tang Qingrou, treating her as a person.

After seeing the people from the Tang Family’s main house, the soldiers couldn’t help but look at Tang Zan.

Some soldiers muttered quietly.

"The Tang Family betrayed our Dayan; if it weren’t for the Tang Family, we wouldn’t have been in such misery."

"That’s right, and our General is also from the Tang Family; will he go easy on them?"

"It’s over. If our Deputy General goes easy on the Tang Family, we’d surely lose this war!"

Upon saying this, everyone felt a pang of fear, causing the fighting spirit that had just been ignited to show signs of extinguishing.

Tang Zan reached out his hand to Pei Shu’er, "Got any more bullets?"

Pei Shu’er handed over the bullets to Tang Zan, who quickly loaded them.

Tang Zan raised his voice, "Rest assured, I, Tang Zan, as a Dayan man, even though the main house has been removed from our family tree, will not spare such traitors."

"The sons of the Tang Family are loyal and righteous throughout the generations and will not let any traitor go."

"Today, I, Tang Zan, will act in righteousness against my kin, for the deceased Dayan soldiers, for the deceased Dayan civilians!"

After saying this, Tang Zan pulled the trigger, shooting at Mrs. Li.

"Shoo—" The muffled sound of the silencer rang, emitting smoke from the gun barrel.

Mrs. Li didn’t realize what that dark thing was, but intuitively, it was something very powerful.

She tried to dodge, but she realized only when the bullet hit her forehead that its speed was frighteningly fast, far beyond her reaction time to dodge.

Moreover, the projectile was so small that she couldn’t see it clearly.

At the moment of her death, she looked at the sky of Dayan, tears slowly trickling from the corners of her eyes.

She hadn’t even had the chance to enjoy the glory and wealth promised by the Dazi, nor the thrill of stepping the rest of the Tang Family underfoot.

Mrs. Li’s death scared the others, and Tang Zan turned the gun towards Tang Peilin, whose face had gone pale with fright. He realized that this firearm-like weapon was an immensely powerful hidden weapon.

Far more powerful than a firearm, he hastily tried to dodge.

Just as Tang Zan was about to shoot, Pei Shu’er mumbled a few words to Tang Zan.

In the midst of Tang Peilin’s evasive actions, he noticed Aunt Lin beside him getting shot, dying with eyes wide open.

From start to finish, Tang Zan intended to shoot Aunt Lin.

Tang Qingrou, with tears in her eyes, cried out loud.

She attempted to leap towards Aunt Lin but feared the bullet would hit her instead, so she could only watch from a distance as her mother’s eyes slowly lost their luster.

Eventually, her eyes turned into a hollow void of death, staring at Tang Zan, with brain matter and blood pooling on the ground.

Tang Qingrou glared at Tang Zan with eyes red with hatred. Read full story at 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝘯𝘦𝘵

"Tang Zan, you ruthless heart, is this how you treat your own family?"

She then looked at Pei Shu’er, realizing it was because of what Pei Shu’er had whispered to Tang Zan that made him change his mind and shoot her mother.

"Pei Shu’er, you venomous woman, I curse you to die a miserable death."

Pei Shu’er did not bring up old grievances, but spoke of the nation’s great revenge.

"Because of your betrayal, countless Dayan people have died or been wounded. I don’t think Deputy General Tang’s actions are excessive. On the contrary, I believe his act of righteousness against kin is truly loyal and righteous."

Finished speaking, Pei Shu’er bowed deeply to Tang Zan in admiration.

Those soldiers who had been somewhat vocal were now genuinely convinced by Tang Zan.

"Deputy General Tang is righteous!"

"Deputy General Tang is righteous!"

Their hearts filled with boiling blood, wanting nothing more than to wipe out the traitors and the Dazi completely.

Tang Qingrou’s face darkened, glaring resentfully at Pei Shu’er.

"Tang Zan even lays his hand on his own family, he’s a cold-hearted and cold-blooded being, probably capable of betraying even you soldiers in the end!"

Her words sent a shiver through the soldiers, prompting them to glance at the two deceased individuals.

If a general is too ruthless, it’s indeed possible they’d do similar things.

Pei Shu’er frowned, "I know Tang Zan is in pain. He chose his country over his family. Moreover, you have already been removed from the family tree; those who commit excess will bring about their own demise."

Tang Zan said, "I have so many soldiers under my command. No matter the dire straits, I’ve never abandoned a single one. Justice resides in people’s hearts, not from traitors’ mouths to sway the army’s morale!"

"As a Dayan man, if a traitor were my kin, I would still act in righteousness against them."

Having said that, Tang Zan aimed the bullet at Tang Qingrou.

However, coincidentally, as Tang Zan fired, a gust of wind blew into his eyes.

The bullet missed, hitting the chest of a Dazi soldier instead.

The Dazi soldier died, but Tang Qingrou remained unscathed.

Tang Qingrou cursed in rage, "Tang Zan, I’m your cousin!"

Tang Zan replied, "No longer, I have no cousins."
