I am the son of Cao thief, start the awakening of the tyrant system

Chapter 373 Protecting the Han people, the news leaked

Tian Chou was taken aback, and looked up.

But several Wuhuan herdsmen who were captured were mercilessly hacked to death by Cao Jun's soldiers!

Seeing such a bloody scene, Tian Chou couldn't help frowning, and quickly stopped the leader Cao Zhang,
"General Ziwen, they are just ordinary herdsmen. Since they have already surrendered, why kill them?"

Cao Zhang tore off a piece of clothing from the corpse, and while wiping the blood from the long knife in his hand, he grinned and said,
"Sir, this is my lord's order, I am only following the order."

Seeing that he couldn't make any sense, Tian Chou could only stomp his feet and walk quickly towards the Wuhuan camp.

in the tent.

Cao Mao was listening to Yan Liang and Wen Chou's report on the battle damage just now, when he saw Tian Chou striding in.

"Lord!"

With a sullen face, Tian Chou bowed to Cao Mao.

Seeing his dissatisfaction faintly, Cao Mao smiled faintly,
"Mr. Zitai, what's the matter?"

"Reporting to my lord, there is one thing that my subordinates are dissatisfied with!"

Tian Chou stared at Cao Mao, and asked in a firm tone,
"Most of the Wuhuan people in this camp are herdsmen. Since they have already been captured, why slaughter them all?"

Although he had heard of Cao Mao's brutal reputation before, he didn't take it to heart.

What he saw and heard today made him really angry, so his tone was somewhat disrespectful.

But Cao Mao was not angry either, he waved his hands to Yan Liang and Wen Chou, and said to Tian Chou,

"Sir, please follow me."

Tian Chou was slightly taken aback, then followed Cao Mao and walked out.

The two came outside the Wuhuan tribe.

There is a deep pit here, and there are nearly hundreds of white bones in a mess.

"Sir, do you know who these bones belong to?"

Cao Mao asked softly.

Tian Chou's eyes were a little dazed, he shook his head and said,

"I don't know."

"Let me tell you, these bones belong to my people!"

Tian Chou's body shook suddenly, and he looked at Cao Mao in disbelief.

Cao Mao ignored him, his dark eyes looked at the bones in the deep pit, revealing a little sorrow.

"The Wuhuan people have repeatedly violated the frontier and plundered hundreds of thousands of my fellow citizens!"

"Do you know how they treat the big fellows?"

"Both men and women are treated as slaves. They bear heavy workloads and are ordered and humiliated by the Wuhuan people at will. If they don't like it, they will be hacked to death!"

"Although this Wuhuan tribe is small, there are hundreds of big men who have been taken away."

"And now most of them are buried in this deep pit!"

"Not to mention that in order to avoid leaking the news, let Ta Dun take precautions in advance."

"Just for the sake of these big men who died in a foreign land, so what if I kill all these Wuhuan people?"

"If such actions are cruel, I would rather be more cruel, so that my big fellow people can live and work in peace and contentment from now on, and avoid being invaded by foreign races!"

Every word of Cao Mao was like a hammer, hitting Tian Chou's heart hard!

He stood there for a while, speechless.

At this moment, a burst of chaotic footsteps came from the camp.

The two looked up.

I saw a group of ragged men and women stumbling out of the camp.

They were all big Han civilians who were plundered by the Wuhuan people and used as slaves.

After arriving in front of Cao Mao, they knelt down in unison.

"My son's life-saving grace, we will never forget it!"

Cao Mao's face was like water, and he said softly,

"You are all my fellow citizens, it is only right to protect you, you don't have to thank me!"

A teenage boy suddenly knelt out from the crowd and kowtowed heavily,

"General, both of my parents died at the hands of the Wuhuan people. I beg the general to avenge my parents. I am willing to be an ox or a horse to repay the general's kindness!"

Every word he said was bloody.

Because of kowtowing too hard, even his forehead was bloody!
Cao Mao stepped forward quickly, helped him up, looked around everyone present, and shouted in a deep voice,
"You can rest assured! The crimes committed by the Wuhuan people, I will let them pay with blood!"

Everyone kowtowed in unison again,
"Thank you sir!"

After the generals of the Cao army left the captive Han people, Cao Mao turned around and looked at Tian Chou.

"Sir, do you still think I'm too cruel?"

Tian Chou just felt ashamed!
Cao Mao would like to restore the peace on the border of the Han Dynasty with the infamy of his cruelty.

With such a noble heart and sentiment, I still feel cruel and come to criticize.

Tian Chou looked ashamed, and bowed solemnly to Cao Mao.
"My lord, the subordinate was too impulsive and misunderstood the lord, please forgive me."

"Those who don't know are not guilty. I will not punish you at will for such a trivial matter."

Cao Mao smiled lightly.

"My lord's mind is really beyond human reach."

Tian Chou sighed sincerely, and he was glad that he followed a wise master.

The two got up and went back to the camp.

At this moment, the battlefield has been cleaned up.

All the Wuhuan were killed, and their bodies were likewise thrown into freshly dug pits.

Cao Mao gathered everyone in the tent and began to discuss military affairs again.

"My lord, according to the information I got from Wuhuan just now, this place is only half a day away from Liucheng."

"We can have a good rest tonight, and set off to attack Liucheng tomorrow."

Zhao Yun summarized the information he had obtained and reported it to Cao Mao.

This time he set out to Liucheng, among the several generals brought by Cao Mao, only Zhao Yun was brave and resourceful.

Therefore, all military affairs were entrusted to him.

Cao Mao nodded slightly, nodded and said,

"Yes, pass on the order so that you can rest and recuperate, and set off for Liucheng tomorrow!"

"Here!"

Everyone suddenly took orders and dispersed.

……

late at night.

In the deep pit where the Wuhuan people's bodies were piled up, a black figure suddenly climbed up.

Taking advantage of Cao Jun's inattention, he climbed out of the deep pit and disappeared into the night in a state of embarrassment.

……

Liucheng.

Wuhuan Royal Court.

With a gloomy complexion, Ta Dun slowly stepped into the royal court, staring at Su Puyan coldly,
"Su Puyan, what is so important that you wake me up at such a late hour!"

He was sleeping with his concubine Ji in his arms just now, and his dream was suddenly interrupted by a few attendants, who said that Su Boyan had something important to see.

No wonder he was so upset!
Su Puyan didn't dare to be negligent, and quickly said,

"Shan Yu, someone came to report just now that a large number of Cao troops appeared in the Wuti tribe in Bailang Mountain, and only one member of the tribe escaped!"

"what?"

Ta Dun stood up subconsciously, staring at Su Puyan,
"Didn't we deploy 10,000+ soldiers in Jieshi? How did Cao Jun appear on the White Wolf Mountain?"

"I don't know..."

Su Puyan smiled wryly,

"But at this moment, it is not about how Cao Jun will appear, but about how to deal with the enemy."
