Chapter 724: Jingzhou Righteous Warrior Hu Daoxu
Hu Senjun's words fell, Huan Zhen suddenly had a murderous look in his eyes, picked up the big bow on the side of the saddle, and instantly wound the arrow, before this Hu Senjun could react, an arrow had already been shot, forty steps away, Wu Fangzheng, who was smiling all over his face, suddenly shot through, his body knelt on the ground weakly, grabbed his hands twice, and didn't even scream, so he choked his breath.
Hu Senjun's smile suddenly froze on his face, and before he could open his mouth in surprise, he only heard Huan Zhen's roar sounding around him: "Kill me, don't let one go, hurry!" ”
The soldiers of the Huan family, who were stunned with the surrounding people, finally reacted, many people hesitantly raised their bows and arrows and spears, but they did not dare to shoot, until Huan Zhen drew his bow and arrows again, and shot down an old woman who began to turn around and run away, they began to no longer hesitate, arrows shot spears, horses' hooves flew, and it was only a moment of effort, more than 100 Xingyang people who survived the catastrophe died on the ground, and the farthest one ran only more than ten steps.
Huan Zhen slowly put down the big bow in his hand, the bowstring was still vibrating slightly, and a corpse in the distance was pierced by a long-rod wolf tooth arrow, and fell to the ground helplessly, that was the sixth person he killed today, a cruel smile hung on the corner of his mouth, his blood-red tongue, like a wolf, stretched out, licking his lips, Hu Shenjun on one side was full of anger, his fists were clenched, trembling slightly, but he didn't say a word.
Huan Zhen tilted his head, looked at Hu Shenjun on the side, and said with a smile: "Hu Fan, you are known as the Jingzhou marksman, the general of the gate, why did you not kill a single person or shoot an arrow in the battle just now?" ”
Hu Fan gritted his teeth: "Fight? Zhen Gongzi, this is not a battle, it is clearly a massacre! Although I, Hu Fan, are eager for military merit and want to make meritorious contributions, but I am not mad and kill the unarmed people, if the military merit is achieved in this way, then I would rather go home and farm! ”
The smile on Huan Zhen's face slowly faded, and a disdainful light flashed in his eyes: "Yo, our Hu Senjun turned out to be a great hero who is compassionate and compassionate." It's just that you don't seem to be as noble as you say, along the way, there are not a few civilians in the villages you personally led the troops to level, and the civilians you killed. ”
A trace of shame flashed on Hu Fan's face, and he said: "Those, those I originally just obeyed orders, but when I really carried it out, I struggled in my heart, and I could only tell myself again and again that these were the people of the enemy country, who did not obey the king, did not welcome the king, and did not return to the wind when the army arrived, and wanted to form a village to protect themselves." Moreover, in the villages I set foot in, I only killed strong men, and I never attacked the old and weak women and children! ”
"Today I listened to the Hu people's seat, and I was deeply ashamed of what I had done before, we Han people are a state of etiquette, and we have been taught to practice benevolence and righteousness and love the people since we were children, but in the end, what we do, our thoughts and insights, are not as good as a Hu businessman. Zhen Gongzi, you obviously promised Abbas to take these Xingyang people back, why did you treacherously kill all these people? ”
A fierce glint flashed in Huan Zhen's eyes: "Hu Fan, you say, what are we doing here?" ”
Hu Fan replied without hesitation: "On the orders of the champion general, we will lead the elite cavalry to come, in order to reconnoiter the enemy's situation and destroy the enemy's small force. ”
Huan Zhen laughed: "Very good, how have we completed our current task?" ”
Hu Fan Zhengse said: "The reconnaissance mission has actually been almost completed, but because of the encounter with Abbas, this major military situation needs to be notified to the champion general in advance, so General Huangfu will take the first step." But before he left, didn't he clearly order me to wait for the people to escort back? ”
Huan Zhen sneered: "Yes, so you stupidly want to carry out Huang Fufu's order, let him go to receive the merit and reward, and we have to wander around here, and finally take these old, weak, sick and disabled people back to the camp slowly, after going back, there is no merit, these people may still have the plague in their bodies, if they are brought back and spread in the army, then who will take this responsibility, you?" ”
Hu Fan was stammered when asked, but he couldn't refute it.
Huan Zhen looked at the first-level sergeant who was harvesting the corpses of these Xingyang people in the distance, and said loudly: "Don't cut off your head, they are all old men, you can see at a glance, if you get into trouble, just cut off your nose and take it back, that one can't tell the age anyway, and burn these dead ghosts together, they may have been infected with the epidemic, so don't bother to bury them." ”
The sergeants in the distance agreed in unison, and then did as Huan Zhen commanded, everyone had a smile on their faces, after all, Huan Zhen made many of them get a harvest this time, and going back is a real reward for military merits, these sergeants like tigers and wolves, once they see blood and get merit, they feel that even this rancid air has become sweet.
Huan Zhen smiled and pointed at these sergeants, and said to Hu Fan: "Dao Xuah (Hu Fan's words), you are a soldier, you should understand the needs of the soldiers, we go to the battlefield to fight, sacrifice life and forget death, for the sake of merit, we are generals, when we join the army, merit can be achieved through the army's capture, but what about these small soldiers, then you have to fight the real head, you protect the useless people, but let the soldiers lose the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and in the end can only let the soldiers centrifuge." As for those people, they are the people of the enemy country, whether they are killed or released is just a matter of our thoughts, they are cattle and sheep, so why do we need sympathy? Before we set out on the expedition, we had to kill cattle and sheep, and sacrifice the flag with blood. ”
A trace of anger flashed in Hu Fan's eyes, and he said hatefully: "Young Master Zhen, no matter what, I can't agree with your point of view, these are people, not cattle and sheep!" ”
Huan Zhen sneered: "Human life in troubled times is like grass mustard, it is not as good as cattle and sheep, cattle and sheep can at least be slaughtered and eaten, can these people be?" Hu Daoxu, I see that you have some skills, I wanted to make friends with you, but I didn't expect you to be so ignorant, but to believe the nonsense of those barbarians, I think, in the future, you will be in the Jingzhou army, don't want to get ahead! ”
As he spoke, a dozen of the horse's buttocks, the war horse disappeared, and a few relatives behind him suddenly thought of something, and said loudly: "Young Master Zhen, you haven't taken your harvest yet, we ............"
Huan Zhen's voice drifted far away from the wind: "Give these gains to the brothers, leave this ghost place early, and I'll go to Bishui Pass to have a look!" ”
Hu Fan's eyes stared at the back of Huan Zhen in the distance, sighed, and muttered to himself: "Is such an army worth my service?" It's a pity, how good would it be if Abbas was our Jin general?! ”
A sergeant on one side shouted: "Hu Senjun, we have left you two noses, you see ............"
Without saying a word, Hu Fan galloped towards the south where Huangfu was heading in the opposite direction, and a puff of smoke completely enveloped the two sergeants who wanted to come up to curry favor with him, and they lasted for a long time.
