The snow outside the pass melts, which is not something that can be done in a day or two.

The sun shines every day, but the soldiers feel that every day, it seems that it is much colder than before.

After waiting for more than ten days, the snow did look much thinner, and Cao Heng thought of sending troops to attack the Jie people.

He did not invite all the generals into the tent, but only asked the guards to invite Jiang Wei and Lu Xun.

The two of them came to his tent, and Jiang Wei asked, "The eldest son asked us to come over, did you think of going to war again?"

"That's right." Cao Heng asked back: "Do you two think it's time to go to war?"

"No." Jiang Wei replied: "The ice and snow have melted a lot. If the eldest son thinks it's time to go to the war, we will follow it."

"Bo Yue said so much." Cao Heng smiled slightly, then asked Jiang Wei: "Do you think it's not time to send troops?"

"Not." Jiang Wei said: "I just feel that the soldiers are not prepared enough, and it is indeed a bit blind to sending troops at this time."

Cao Heng frowned slightly: "I said I had sent troops before. You all thought the ice and snow were too deep, and it was not time to send troops. Now the ice and snow were half thin, and the soldiers marching in the snow should not be as difficult as before. You also know the weather outside the pass, and no one knows whether it will be a sunny day or a blizzard tomorrow. If there is another blizzard in the future, we will be completely trapped here."

"There should be no wind and snow in the next few days." Jiang Wei replied: "In another five days, if the eldest son still thinks he can send troops, we will send troops at that time."

"It's done." Cao Heng thought for a while and said to the two of them: "Otherwise, you will stay here with the army. I will lead a team of troops to go out to the camp first to see what the Jie people are doing."

"No." Cao Heng wanted to lead a team of men to investigate the movements of the people in the Capricorns. Lu Xun quickly said: "What Boyue said is actually not wrong. The snow has not completely melted yet. If the eldest son decides to send troops now, he is really causing trouble for himself. I think the eldest son should just press the issue of sending troops for a while and wait for four or five days before talking about it."

Jiang Wei and Lu Xun both believed that it was time to send troops before it was time to send troops, and if he insisted, if something really happened, it would be difficult for him to explain in the future.

Although he was reluctant, Cao Heng said, "Since both of you think you shouldn't send troops at this time, I'll endure it."

Jiang Wei and Lu Xun both thought that they could not send troops, so Cao Heng had to agree to press them for the time being and wait until the ice and snow were thinner.

After accompanying Cao Heng to discuss military affairs for a while, he made sure that when the ice and snow were so thin that they could only reach the feet, the army was about to set off, and Jiang Wei and Lu Xun withdrew from his tent.

After leaving the tent, Lu Xun shivered and shivered: "It's still warm in the tent, but it's too cold outside."

"Although the tent is warm, the eldest son can't stay." Jiang Wei said: "He is always thinking about how to destroy the Jie people."

"What the eldest son bears is not as simple as you and I imagined." Lu Xun replied: "The King of Wei is always watching here. It is difficult for the Jie people to feel at ease if they don't get rid of the King of Wei. As the eldest son of the Great Wei, of course, he hopes to destroy the Jie people sooner."

"Actually, I understand the eldest son's mind, but it's not that simple to destroy the Jie people." Jiang Wei said: "When we came outside the pass, we have been treating the Jie people in the form of massacre. When the Jie people see us, they either fight or escape. Living people are not like dead people. They want to hide, and it is extremely difficult for our soldiers to find them. As long as there are Jie people in the world, they will live and die. Destroying a group is not as easy as we imagine."

"Actually, the eldest son should understand this," Lu Xun said: "That's why he found some people before and asked them to chase and kill the Jie people in the heavy snow. Fortunately, these people did not disappoint the eldest son. Although they failed to destroy all the Jie people they met, they killed at least several thousand."

"I really don't know if this will last, which year and month will be the end." Jiang Wei replied: "After fighting the Jie people, do you still have to attack the Huns?"

"What else is it?" Lu Xun smiled: "Don't Bo Yue understand the thoughts of King Wei? He wanted to erase all the alien races from the beginning, but he used relatively gentle methods to treat other alien races, but only the Jie people were treated with the method of extermination of the clan and the race."

"The Jie people are fierce, and it is reasonable for their destruction of the clan and race." Jiang Wei said: "The Huns are much stronger than the Jie people. When they attack the Huns, they don't know what situation they will encounter."

"Thinking about these too early, we might as well think more about how to deal with the Jie people when the snow melts." Lu Xun said: "I always feel that this attack on Jie people will definitely not be as simple as we planned earlier."

"How easy is it to fight?" Jiang Wei smiled and shook his head, and gently patted Lu Xun's arm: "There is something Bo Yan said, it's really useless. We thought that it would be useless no matter how much we thought, it would be safe. It would be better to stabilize the eldest son first and ask him not to send troops soon. Wait until the ice and snow melt a little, and then lead the soldiers to continue moving forward."

"I have nothing to do today. Should Boyue go to my place, warm a pot of wine and make some meat. You and I eat while talking about major military affairs?" Lu Xun asked Jiang Wei.

Jiang Wei replied: "Since it was Bo Yan's invitation, how could I not agree? Then I'll bother Bo Yan."

"What's the relationship between you and me? After a meal of wine, I'll just mess with you?" Lu Xun smiled and waved his hand: "If Boyue said this, I really wouldn't invite you."

"Then I won't say it, just go and eat your wine." Jiang Wei replied with a smile.

"This is almost the same." Lu Xun responded and went to his tent with Jiang Wei.

After being persuaded by the two, Cao Heng gave up his plan to lead troops to attack the next Jie tribe and sat in the tent, but he always felt uneasy.

The Jie people are right in front of him. Before leaving the customs, he made plans. Taking advantage of the snow falling outside the customs, the Jie people tribe cannot change places, and he will lead the soldiers to advance along the way.

Unexpectedly, there were two heavy snowfalls in a row. Before the first snow began to melt, the second one fell down.

Now that the snow is deep, it is very difficult for the soldiers to take a step in the snow, and it is indeed not suitable to send troops to attack the Jie people.

However, when I waited here, Cao Heng always felt like he was thinking about something.

He really couldn't sit in the tent, so he got up and walked out of the tent.

When he came outside the tent, he did not hello anyone and walked to the place where the soldiers were stationed.

The weather was too cold and most soldiers refused to leave the tent.

They were curled up in a tent, wrapped in thick quilts.

Cao Shuo sent cotton from Zhendu and other places to Central Plains. The cotton has just been planted for not long and has not been planted on a large scale, so the frequency of cotton products is very small.

The quilt wrapped in the soldiers was still covered with cotton flocs.

Although linen cotton can also keep warm, it is much worse than cotton.

Fortunately, there were braziers in each tent, so that the soldiers could still feel some warmth.

When they arrived at the camp where the soldiers were stationed, they saw Cao Heng's Wei army saluting him straight.

Cao Heng rarely nodded and responded. When he passed by many tents, he just took a casual look inside.

Few of the soldiers who were talking in the tent noticed him coming.

The few who saw him quickly stood up. When the others turned around and looked out of the tent, Cao Heng had already walked over.

While patrolling the military camp, Cao Heng heard a voice: "Why is the eldest son here?"

Turning his head and looking, the general who walked towards him was a light-shaped and beautiful-looking general.

He is nothing but Wen Yang.

Although Wen Yang is a man, he is extremely beautiful. Even if he knows that he is a man, many people will be moved when they see him.

With a smile at Wen Yang, Cao Heng asked, "What is General Wen doing?"

After meeting Cao Heng, Wen Yang replied: "A routine patrol, the more days the soldiers are stationed, the more ordinary we patrol. The army is not afraid of fighting, but the fear is that the soldiers are too bored. Once they are bored, it will be difficult for us generals to handle. Several more patrols are necessary."

"Since the soldiers are bored to such a situation, General Wen thinks should he set out to attack the Jie people?" Cao Heng suddenly asked.

Wen Yang thought for a while, looked at the nearby snow and shook his head and said, "The snow was too deep. Even if he took the soldiers to fight, it was his turn to charge, they would not be able to run faster. The slower the charge, the more likely they were to be shot and killed by the enemy. I think this is really not the time to send troops."

Even Wen Yang said this, Cao Heng knew that his previous thoughts were indeed too aggressive.

Fortunately, Jiang Wei and Lu Xun were here, so he did not make him too aggressive, which brought a catastrophe to the army.

"I heard that General Wen has excellent martial arts skills, so I am very bored now." Cao Heng asked: "I don't know if the general is willing to play with me, it's also great for warming my muscles."

Cao Heng proposed to compete with Wen Yang, and Wen Yang replied: "I heard that the eldest son was well-known to General Lu and the imperial teacher Wang Yue. One of them was the strongest immediately and the other had the strongest sword skills. How dare I compete with the eldest son?"

"It's just a competition," Cao Heng said: "It's time to stop. I've heard of General Wen's skills before making a request. If it were someone else, I wouldn't have thought of a competition."

Cao Heng said earnestly. Wen Yang thought for a while and said to him: "Since the eldest son decided to gesture, I have to accompany him. But I am not good at studying, so please don't laugh at me."

"You and I are not outsiders, so how can we laugh at me?" Cao Heng asked, "Does General Wen want to compete in his skills on the back of a horse or his sword skills?"

"What the eldest son said, then compare what he said." Wen Yang was a brave man. Although he knew where Cao Heng learned his youth, he decided to gesture according to his wishes."

"The snow is too deep, and even if we ride horses, the horses are not as flexible as before." Cao Heng said: "It's better for us to compete with swordsmanship."

"The eldest son has given me advice." Wen Yang responded.

The two of them drew their swords to each other and set out in the military camp to make gestures.

Wen Yang took the lead in attacking, swung his sword and slashed at Cao Heng's head.

Cao Heng was not a good person either. When the sword was slashed down, he flipped the sword in his hand and gently lifted it up, and easily resolved the crisis in front of him.

The two of them started to gesture in the military camp, and soon soldiers emerged from the tent.

Seeing their swords coming and going, the soldiers would cheer from time to time.

The cheers of the soldiers attracted Jiang Wei and others.

Several generals left and saw Cao Heng fighting with Wen Yang, and they stopped to watch.

Although Jiang Wei and Lu Xun are not powerful generals on the battlefield, they are mostly people who provide advice in the army, but they still know some swordsmanship, and ordinary people will not be their opponents at all.

Seeing Cao Heng and Wen Yang competing for swordsmanship, Zhao Guang asked Zhao Tong in a low voice: "Brother, do you think which martial arts are more outstanding, do you think the eldest son or General Wen?"

"When it comes to the skills on the horse, General Wen may not be bad." Zhao Tong lowered his voice and replied, "But if he talks about swordsmanship..."

He shook his head.

Although he didn't say it clearly, Zhao Guang also understood what he meant.

Cao Heng and Wen Yang fought for a hundred and ten rounds. He took two steps back and returned the sword to the sheath: "General Wen's martial arts are really extraordinary. If he continues to fight, I may not be the general's opponent."

After a fight with Cao Heng, outsiders may not be able to see it, but Wen Yang knew very well that during the competition, Cao Heng actually had several opportunities to knock him down on the spot, but he just didn't take action.

Cao Heng left him with a face, and Wen Yang couldn't help but be grateful.

He bowed and bowed to Cao Heng: "I thank the eldest son for giving in, and the last general is indeed no match."

Haha, Cao Heng walked up to him, patted his arm gently, and then shouted to the onlookers: "I know you are bored recently because you can't go up and kill the enemy. But you also have to understand that it's not that I don't let you kill the Jie people, but that the snow everywhere makes us unable to move forward. With so much snow, even if I want to kill the enemy, you can't walk. Instead of being idle all day here, sitting in a tent and bragging and playing money, it's better to have a conversation with each other, at least to make your martial arts more refined."

The soldiers were all looking at Cao Heng, and the generals were also listening.

Cao Heng continued: "March is difficult, war is difficult, and even God is against us. But how can we bear the anger of God? It doesn't want us to fight the Jie people, but we want to fight it, but we want to let it take a look. As long as it is what the soldiers of the Great Wei want to do, then don't say what the destiny is! Even if it is really the enemy of the Great Wei, we will make them completely extinct!"

"The eldest son is mighty!" He competed with Cao Heng, and he was not embarrassed by his concessions. Wen Yang was of course grateful to him and immediately raised his arms and shouted.

The soldiers also shouted: "The eldest son is mighty!"
