Chapter 2203 Even the mother has defected(1/4)
When Cao Heng led the cavalry to appear, the Jie people in the tribe were in chaos.
Women, children and the elderly were all hiking into the tent.
The warriors ran out with their weapons, ready to fight against the invading Central Plains people.
Leading the cavalry to rush forward, Cao Heng took off the longbow from behind and aimed at a Jie man who looked like a leader to release the bowstring.
The bowstring trembled and the arrow flew out, and the Jie people fell to the ground.
As soon as Cao Heng rushed out, he shot a leader of the Jie people, and the others were very surprised.
A small number of Jie people reacted faster. They had already bowed slightly with their weapons and stared at the rushing cavalry, ready to fight.
Most of the Capricorn warriors ran out of the tent.
They looked flustered and hadn't found their position for a while.
Of course, Cao Heng could not give Jie people a chance to react. He rode a war horse and rushed into the Jie people's tribe first.
On the way to charge, he galloped his horse while sprinting his bow and arrows to shoot arrows at the Jie people.
Every time he opens the bowstring and launches the arrow, a Jie person will fall to the ground.
The distance was not very far, and Cao Heng did not have much chance to shoot arrows. When he was about to rush to the edge of the tribe, he threw down his longbow, pulled out the painting halberd inserted diagonally on the horse's back, and rushed into the Jie tribe.
Several Jie people wanted to come and block him, but he swept the halberd around and swept the Jie people to the ground.
From Cao Heng's skillful movements, no one could tell that he had never been on the battlefield.
He was like a veteran who had been on the battlefield for many years, rushing around in the Jie tribe.
Wherever the war horses went, the painting halberds were thorns, and each of the Jie people died under his painting halberds.
The cavalry following Cao Heng rushed into the tribe, like him, wielding weapons to chop every Jie people they could meet.
The cavalry led by Cao Heng was only a hundred people.
After they rushed into the tribe, the Jie people were still trying to fight back.
Just as a dozen Jie people ran out of the tent and avoided the sight of several cavalrymen and tried to start from behind, a sound of horse hooves came from behind them.
Hearing the sound of horse hooves, more than a dozen Jie people turned around and saw another group of war horses racing towards them.
It was Cao Zhang who led this team of cavalry to gallop.
Cao Heng fought with the Jie people. Cao Zhang was worried that he would make mistakes and dared not delay for a moment, so he quickly led the cavalry to rush forward.
Looking at the cavalry getting closer and closer, the surprise on the faces of more than a dozen Jie people had not yet retreated, Cao Zhang had already rushed to them.
He raised his hand and fell, and a Jie man was cut off and pulled his head halfway.
While putting away the knife, he flipped his wrist and hit another Jie man on the neck, chopping off his best head.
After killing two Jie people, Cao Zhang stopped and rushed over without stopping.
The remaining Jie people did not save their lives because of his rush. The cavalry following Cao Zhang rushed forward and buried them in it.
When the cavalry rushed over, only a dozen bloody corpses were left on the ground.
Zhao Yun led a team of cavalry to cut off the retreat of the Jie people.
He said that he was cutting off the retreat, but he was just responsible for preventing the Jie people from escaping and reporting the news.
From Cao Heng and others rushing into the tribe until the Jie warriors were completely asked by them, Zhao Yun did not wait for even one of the Jie people who escaped.
Leading a hundred cavalry to the Jie people's tribe, Cao Zhangzheng directed the soldiers to search everywhere, kill the hidden Jie people civilians, and then tied up all the young women, preparing to take them back to Yanmen Pass.
Zhao Yun entered the tribe and saw Cao Heng riding a war horse from afar, stunned in the open space.
Motionallying the soldiers to search for the remaining Jie people, Zhao Yun came to Cao Heng's side.
He tilted his head and looked at Cao Heng, and found that his eyes were a little frozen. Zhao Yun asked, "What's wrong with the eldest son?"
Hearing someone greeted him, Cao Heng was suddenly shocked, turned his head and saw that it was Zhao Yun who grinned: "General Zhao, are you here too?"
Although he was laughing, his ridiculous look was very unnatural.
Zhao Yun asked, "What's wrong with the eldest son? What are you thinking?"
"Nothing." Cao Heng replied: "It's just that my heart is a little confused..."
"It's the first time I killed someone, and I have killed so many people. It would be strange if my heart is not stuck." Zhao Yun said with a smile: "If the eldest son is not happy, just find a place to shout twice."
Looking at Zhao Yun in surprise, Cao Heng asked, "Is it enough to just shout twice?"
"Of course," Zhao Yun said: "The first time I killed someone back then, I was so confused. Once I closed my eyes, the face of the person I killed appeared in front of me. A living person was killed by himself, as long as he was not a natural butcher, he would not be as calm as water. You have never killed anyone, so you are troubled by killing people. In fact, after this time and going to the battlefield again, there will be no such thing as today."
Cao Heng nodded, but he still felt his chest blocked.
When he rushed into the Jie tribe, he was only concerned about killing the enemy, and he never thought about the reaction he would have after killing.
When the battle ended and he saw the corpses, he couldn't help but feel disgusted.
Seeing that his face was not good, Zhao Yun shouted to the soldiers beside him: "Tell the third general, ask him to be responsible for the matter here, and I will accompany the eldest son to go out for a walk."
The soldiers agreed, and Zhao Yun accompanied Cao Heng out of the Jie tribe.
Accompanying Cao Heng and walking two or three hundred steps away from the Li tribe, Zhao Yun pointed to the vast mountains in the distance and said to Cao Heng: "Do you see where?"
"See." Seeing the faint shadows of the mountains appearing, Zhao Yun said: "There is Yanmen Pass, and we came from there."
It was impossible for Cao Heng to not remember the direction he came. He asked Zhao Yun: "General Zhao asked me to see what he did there?"
"Do you still remember why you came?" Zhao Yun suddenly asked him.
"Of course I remember." Cao Heng said: "I am here to destroy the Jie tribe closest to Yanmen Pass."
"Now the eldest son has done it, what else can I feel confused?" Zhao Yun asked him.
When Zhao Yun asked, he was stunned. Cao Heng didn't know what to say.
Zhao Yun asked right. He came here to destroy the Jie tribe. Now that he has done it, what else can he do to get stuck?
"I remember when Shouchun mentioned that the Jie people harmed our Central Plains people, the eldest son was full of righteous indignation and wanted to kill all the Jie people immediately." Zhao Yun continued: "I can't stand it if I killed just a few Jie people today? If it was always like today, how could the eldest son lead the army to kill the enemy in the future and how could the Jie people die out?"
Zhao Yun's words awakened Cao Heng.
He looked at Zhao Yun in surprise, his mouth slightly opened with an instant enlightenment, but he still had a confused expression.
With a slight smile, Zhao Yun bowed to him: "Actually, the eldest son has three choices, all of which can solve the chest tightness just now, it depends on which one to choose."
"The chest tightness will be better, but I still feel a little breathless." Cao Heng said: "But what General Zhao taught me has already made me understand a lot of things, and I won't be confused about killing a few people."
"If the eldest son is not confused, then go back with me." Zhao Yun said: "Some things must be faced. If the eldest son doesn't learn to face them, there will be no solution at any time. If it weren't for me, but the King of Wei, he would probably not let you leave the place just now, but would put the Jie people you killed in front of you and let you stare at their bodies for at least five hours."
"Is this method useful?" Cao Heng asked Zhao Yun.
"Of course it's useful." Zhao Yun replied: "When I first watched, I felt frightened and always wanted to avoid it. When I saw that they had no feelings, the eldest son would have learned it."
"Then let's go back." Cao Heng said to Zhao Yun without thinking: "Let someone place the bodies of the Jie people in front of me, and I will look at the Jie people who were killed by me."
"Young master, don't listen to other solutions?" Zhao Yun smiled slightly and asked tentatively.
"There are other ways to be more ruthless than this. If there is no, the general will not be said." Cao Heng said to him: "I also think this method is very good. Today I just broke the Jie people and did not fall. In a short time, I will lead the soldiers to flatten the Jie people. If I can't even overcome the panic after the killing, what qualifications do I have to lead the soldiers to fight to kill the enemy?"
Zhao Yun originally wanted to tell him there were two ways.
One way is to shout out loud to vent your inner emotions and relieve the tightness in your chest.
Another way is to escape, and never go to the battlefield to kill the enemy from now on.
Because of this sense of panic after killing, when you go to the battlefield, you will not only not be able to kill the enemy, but will also bring death and disaster to your companions.
"The eldest son really decided?" With a smile on his face, Zhao Yun asked him with certainty.
"I've decided." Cao Heng replied and said to Zhao Yun: "Please ask General Zhao to supervise me."
"It doesn't seem important whether I supervise or not," Zhao Yun gestured to him and said, "Prince, please!"
The two of them returned to the Daojie tribe. Since they had never thought about occupying the place, the Wei army did not intend to bury the body.
I have always killed the battlefield, and the corpses were handled after the war, not for humanitarianism or for the enemy who could not be killed in battle to storm the wilderness.
There is only one purpose of burying the enemy's corpse, that is, to prevent the plague from spreading.
If a place was attacked and the attacking party had not considered taking it for themselves for a long time, or it would be impossible for them to come back for a long time, they would never have struggled to bury the enemy's corpse.
This is how the Wei army that captured the Jie tribe.
When they came here, they had only one purpose, which was to kill people and take away all the valuable things in the Jie tribe.
In the tribe, the killed Jie people can be found everywhere.
When Zhao Yun and Cao Heng came back, Cao Zhangzheng directed the soldiers to tie up all the captured Jie women. After tied them up, they strung them into a row with hemp ropes, and took them away when they were about to leave.
There were also some Wei soldiers who collected the property of the Luo Jie people in one tent and another.
Speaking of which, the Jie people have no property to collect. Apart from cattle and sheep, they are nothing more than some animal skins in tents.
The soldiers packed these things into bundles and placed them on horseback.
Seeing Cao Heng and Zhao Yun come back, Cao Zhang comes over.
He grinned and bowed to Cao Heng: "The eldest son is really good at martial arts. I could see clearly when he fought just now. With your ability, even few of the powerful generals in the world are your opponents."
