Cao Cao didn't care much about how Lu Zhi and Zhang Jiao fought.Even if he knew that Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei were among the troops Lu Zhi recruited, he didn't care.After all, at this time, Liu Guanzhang was just a commoner in the army, and because Liu Bei was Lu Zhi's disciple, he was hardly an unknown soldier.It's still far from being famous.
In short, Cao Cao had never heard of Liu Bei, and he fought with Huangfu Songbu at his own pace.The only fun is to find a new friend, Sun Jian, to connect with him in his free time.
It's late autumn, and it's the season when the prey is fat, and the large fields are barren and the population has dropped sharply, which provides additional living space for wild animals.Two deer, one big and one small, were already attached to Cao Cao's horse's buttocks, and he led the soldiers to the camp.
Sun Jian was driving side by side with him, dragging a big bloody wild boar, one of the wild boar's tusks was broken abruptly.People at that time didn't like to eat pork, and this big wild boar was more to show Sun Jian's bravery.
"Wentai is really a warrior!" Cao Cao started his business mutual praise mode, and immediately gained ten points of favorability with Sun Jian.
Warrior Sun Wentai shook his messy hair: "Hey, what kind of warrior is he who slaughtered wild animals and refugees?"
Sun Jian also had a reason for saying this.Just yesterday, they surrounded the last [-] old, weak, sick and disabled people in Bocai. Because Huang Fusong was anxious to go to Jizhou to rescue Lu Zhi, he ordered them to behead all of them.
3 people, it will take two days to kill you with your head stretched out.
Cao Cao couldn't bear the sight of the rivers of blood over there, so he asked for leave and ran out to hunt. Before leaving the camp, he met Sun Jian who was also on leave.The two hit it off and spent a long time outside together.
No matter how rough you are, you will have to go back in the end.As we got closer to the camp, the smell of blood was blowing in our faces. On the vast sandy ground in front of the camp, half of them were corpses piled up in hills, and half of them were family members of yellow scarves tied up in strings with hemp ropes. Shouting the name of her husband and son.There are even young children who are waiting to be fed, crying in the arms of their mothers.
"Yellow Turbans are originally the people of the Han Dynasty." Cao Cao's joy of returning home with a full load has dissipated, and he turned to Sun Jian and said, "When I saw the ruins of the county, I wanted to eat their flesh and lay their skins; but now I see orphans and widows. My mother's head is different, and I can't bear it."
Xiahou Dun took the reins of Cao Cao's horse and walked into the camp: "Brother, don't worry about them. General Huangfu is also a well-known benevolent general, but the Yellow Turban, alas, is entirely to blame! They are not to blame when they go underground. Let's blame Zhang Jiao for doing a lot of harm."
Cao Cao glanced at the execution ground again.
A tall man was being pulled out of the queue by a soldier. His wife grabbed his sleeve and refused to let him go, and he was dragged several feet.The two children looked at the age of just being able to stand on their own, hugging their mother's calf and trying to pull her back, so that the mother's death would be delayed for a while.
"Dog thief!" The man in the yellow scarf yelled, "The Han Dynasty has exhausted its tyranny and extortion. Sooner or later, the great virtuous teacher will lead the heavenly soldiers to reform the old and establish the new!"
Huangfusong personally supervised the beheading, and with a swing of his sword, he chopped off one of the yellow scarf's arms.Blood was sprayed all over the ground, and the yellow scarf's wife and children burst into tears, and the husband himself kept yelling and cursing.
Cao Cao narrowed his eyes: "It's a hard bone."
Xiahou Dun tugged Cao Cao's horse's head again: "Let's go, brother."
Sun Jian didn't want to watch any more: "Brother Meng De, let's go back to camp."
Cao Cao glanced again, the man had been put on the execution platform by two Han soldiers.He still seems to be a leader of the Yellow Turban, the kind who has to be executed publicly.Cao Cao turned his head and patted his horse's ass: "Drive."
Before the end of the team entered the camp gate, they heard abnormal uproar from the execution ground.It was not the crying of the Yellow Turban captives, but the uproar of the soldiers of the Han army.
Cao Cao looked at Xiahou Dun from the left and Sun Jian from the right, then turned around and patted his horse back.The red horse brought Cao Cao up to Huangfusong, followed by out of breath pawns, including Xiahou Dun who injured his horse in the Battle of Changsha.
When he got there, Cao Cao could see clearly what the variable that caused the commotion was.
Among the luxuriant grass, there are five dilapidated oxcarts parked. Tofu, corn and noodle cakes are piled up on the oxcarts, and the aroma is overflowing.Two women in primary-colored sackcloth knelt down in front of the heavily armed Han army and shouted loudly: "I would like to exchange food for young children as slaves!"
Cao Cao's eyes flashed, and he shouted in his heart that something was wrong.
But before he could open his mouth, Huangfusong asked sharply, "These are the remnants of moth thieves, how can you be merciful?"
The woman kneeling in front of her straightened her body, her black hair made her face look as white as jade, and she was full of spirits.The simplest long eyebrows seemed to be untrimmed and unpainted, but the cold star in the pair of almond eyes below them made the soldiers who were already ready to move dare not go forward.
She kowtowed again: "My concubine came here with a little girl in a shroud, so I have the awareness of life and death. It's just that we ten weak girls can go through the war-torn land and see the imperial army. I think it's God who allows me to speak to the general."
Her body knelt on the ground, which could not be more standard family etiquette, but there was an air of arrogance.The words and sentences were spoken clearly and firmly, and they were accurately transmitted to the ears of everyone present.
"I have heard that even if the barbarians on the grassland exterminate each other, they will leave behind young children who are not as high as the height of a wheel; even if wolves attack the village, they will let the babies in their swaddlings be spared. How is the chaos of the Yellow Turban compared to blood feuds between different races? I also hate the yellow scarves for ruining my homeland, but the children are innocent. If General Huangfu agrees, I am willing to take away children under the age of seven and let them grow up to farm and work here to pay for the sins of my father and grandfather."
There was no sound among the prisoners, and there was no sound among the soldiers.It seems that there is only this figure kneeling on the ground under the bright sky.
Huangfusong's hand was still on the hilt of the sword, Cao Cao became anxious and called softly, "General..."
The woman in white clothes straightened her upper body again, and looked directly at Huangfusong: "If the general refuses, I will leave immediately, and the five carts of grain will be used for the army. If the general wants to question the crime, I have no complaints. It's just that I still I have a word."
Huangfusong let go of the hilt of his sword: "Say."
"Although the Yingchuan Yellow Turbans were destroyed, the generals went north and there were still Jizhou Yellow Turbans, and the rest of the Yellow Turbans were also raging in various states. Is it easier for the Yellow Turbans to surrender with the reputation of cutting grass and roots, or is it easier for the Yellow Turbans to surrender with the reputation of opening the net? Please also General think twice."
"General, General." A woman in the group of captives knelt down and kowtowed, "Please let the child go, please General, he is only three years old."
"My child is not yet one year old. His biological father is unknown, and he will not hold any resentment. Please be merciful, General."
"Let the little girl go with the lady."
"I beg the general."
……
In the end, all the prisoners who could kneel, except the bachelors who had nothing to worry about, knelt down.Whether it is the gray-haired old man or the scrawny young man, they all showed expectations.At this moment, the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and the great virtuous teachers had all left them, leaving only the simplest blood beliefs shining on them, and at the same time causing waves of sympathy among the soldiers of the Han army.
The one-armed man on the execution platform knelt there on one knee, his eyes were already red, but he stubbornly did not ask for mercy.But anyone with a discerning eye could feel his wavering emotions.
Huangfusong looked around and drew out his sword in a "swipe", the surrounding noises stopped abruptly.
The woman in white linen lowered her eyebrows and remained motionless.
The half-grown girl kneeling behind her was already shivering, but she still knelt and sat with her elders, not daring to step back.And the other eight women guarding the bullock cart, both old and young, also knelt down in unison, looking like they were ready to kill.
Cao Cao hurriedly got off his horse and stood in front of the two women, one big and one small: "The general is merciful. Ding's Women's Medical Hall has been sending medicinal materials to our army since the army entered Yuzhou. It's because of their inappropriateness, and... Please don't argue with ignorant women and children."
"Yes, General." Sun Jian chimed in, "Most of the children under the age of seven died in the war and famine. Even if we try to find them now, we can't find a few. It won't affect the overall situation. It can also be used to break the will of the enemy army. He Le Instead of?"
Seeing that Huangfusong did not scold Cao Cao and Sun Jian, the rest of the generals came and begged for a few words.Of course, the more important thing is that the person who came here has an extraordinary demeanor, and he looks like a woman from everyone.If you say kill her, not only is it unreasonable, but also loses your demeanor, and it is more likely to offend the family behind her.
Huangfusong withdrew his sword with a "swipe", and a smile of appreciation appeared on the corner of his mouth: "My lady is so courageous and eloquent, I don't know where she is from?"
The woman bowed again and stood up.Now more people can clearly see her hair covered with withered grass and her handsome face. "My concubine belongs to Ding's Ruyi in Peiguo. Ding's women's medical hall is my own family. Most of the medical halls are widows and orphans. They have been delivering babies, giving porridge, and treating children's diseases in Peiguo for many years. There are no illegal evil spirits. Know."
The half-grown girl behind the woman also stood up. After all, she couldn't bear the bloody smell on Huangfusong's body. She leaned against the woman's side with weak legs and feet, and her small body was still shivering.
Huangfusong raised his eyebrows, and pointed in the direction of the captives: "You can pick away the ones that are less than the height of a wheel."
The woman showed a just right smile, and respectfully raised her hand to her forehead: "Thank you, General."
The women next to the ox cart unloaded the grain, then drove the ox cart to the captives in an orderly manner, and began to work: comparing heights, setting number plates, and recording names and places of origin.If the parents want to leave some wooden hairpins, copper plates and stones as souvenirs, there are small wooden boxes engraved with numbers, and the numbers correspond to the children one by one.
Most of the four- and five-year-old children couldn't understand that this was the last chance to escape their lives, and they needed their parents and uncles to cry and persuade them to hug their loved ones. Only when the dry biscuits were moving, did they calm down, only weeping silently.
During the period, several children who were slightly taller than the wheels by two inches also boarded the car under the cover of the people around them.The soldiers of the Han army turned a blind eye and pretended not to see it.
Nine or ten-year-olds may still be able to smuggle in, but teenagers in their teens can't cover it up.But this kind, most of them have blood on their hands, so they are not innocent.
Five bullock carts full of children creaked away from the camp, leaving deep ruts on the land of Yingchuan.Behind the car, there were countless desperate scoldings caused by excessive height, as well as countless loving and expectant exhortations.
The autumn wind blew away the bloody smell on the execution ground.The corpses of countless yellow scarves will be sent to Luoyang in exchange for the addition of officials to the army.The dedicated and patriotic Huangfusong has already led his troops to Jizhou.
In short, Cao Cao had never heard of Liu Bei, and he fought with Huangfu Songbu at his own pace.The only fun is to find a new friend, Sun Jian, to connect with him in his free time.
It's late autumn, and it's the season when the prey is fat, and the large fields are barren and the population has dropped sharply, which provides additional living space for wild animals.Two deer, one big and one small, were already attached to Cao Cao's horse's buttocks, and he led the soldiers to the camp.
