Chapter 494: Dramatic Battle
Battles start faster and end faster.
There was no formation, not even a spear to block, let alone an arrow, it was collapsed by Lu Bu as soon as he rushed, and when Zhao Yun arrived, the army just shouted in Funan dialect to persuade him to surrender, and these people had already decisively chosen to surrender.
The native knelt on the ground, and at this time, Xie Lang and the Xiaotian Army, who were the last to be dispatched, also came out, and under the leadership of the military dogs, they went straight to the dense forest.
"Wang~"
"Whoa!"
As if by magic, thousands of natives from the jungle were driven out and joined the captives.
Cao Xing, under the escort of the tiger and leopard Yicong, who was even taller, walked out of the city wall and came to the prisoner who knelt on the ground, and Lu Bu, Zhao Yun, and Xie Lang came to greet him.
As soon as he saw Lu Bu's expression, it was full of boring, and the fact was also boring, so he didn't have a chance to wield the halberd, just his body size twice as tall as the other party, plus the tall Arabian stallion, the native didn't start running away from a distance, where would he give you a chance to see blood.
From the beginning of drama to the end of drama, Cao Xingxiao asked about the harvest:
"How? Can there be 10,000 captives? ”
This time, Lu Bu's face was slightly better, and he nodded:
"Although the total number is not counted, it is estimated that there are more than 10,000 people, mainly Xie Lang drove out four or five thousand people from the dense forest."
Speaking of this, Lu Bu looked disdainful:
"I still want to ambush for this kind of thing, and I can't do it!"
"Haha! Isn't it better not to be self-sufficient? Are we not working correctly?
Ask about their village, and we'll have a pot! ”
"No!"
Under Cao Xing's gaze, a spectacle appeared in the open space that had just been cut down outside Yuecheng, and under the custody of the Chu army, the banner soldiers of the original Funan people began to interrogate the prisoners.
The open-air interrogators can be seen everywhere, covering all the open areas, and at a glance, there is no edge to be seen.
This may be the largest simultaneous interrogation ever recorded.
Funan people do not have hard bones, straight waists, their code of conduct is fists, and the Chu army has already taught them the power of fists, and now interrogated, that is called never hiding privately, and soon betrayed their own village and family.
The interrogation lasted for an hour, and the reason for the delay was not the stiffness of the other party's mouth, but the subtle differences in the local dialects, and the fact that they did not know how to describe the size and distance of their village.
I can't even say how many people there are in the village, but I answer a lot, because they basically can't count the number of more than three.
This is also the reason why they dare to attack the city, anyway, they can't see the edge, and no one knows whose side has more people.
This is a joke of the Funan people, but it is a bumper harvest for the Chu army.
The captives were escorted together and imprisoned, and some of them became leaders and went to their own stockades.
About half a day later, another spectacle was derived, from the first men, women and children "sugar gourd strings", out of the dense forest, a human-shaped "sugar gourd strings", endlessly driven out like ducks.
Cao Xing personally took on the job of acceptance, and when he counted the harvest of prisoners of war, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and the harvest was too great, especially at this time, it was simply a charcoal in the snow!
Cao Xing's heart was a little grateful, and he was mixed up with this Ah San.
If you have the opportunity, you will definitely use the giant que to thank you for the mix.
Cao Xuan thought so.
String sugar gourd strings, catch ducks, and at dusk, Xu Shu, who was in charge of statistics, ran to Cao Xing in a panic:
"My lord! Something happened! ”
Cao Xing's heart fell into the ice cave all of a sudden, this is his huge wealth, and nothing can happen.
Xu Shu was out of breath, constantly stroking his chest, speeding up his breath, Cao Xinggan was in a hurry, and it was not easy to urge him.
"Lord, Yuecheng is not enough to live!"
"Huh! Ahem......"
Cao Xing only felt that his chest was clogged in a panic, and he coughed, daring to be embarrassed, which made him startled.
Cao Xing said angrily on his face:
"How many captives are there? And how many people have nowhere to live? ”
"There were more than 20,000 prisoners, and Yuecheng, which could only be stuffed with 50,000 people, had to return to live on the ship because of their arrival, leaving space for 10,000 people.
However, this is still not enough! ”
"Okay, Xun Di just came to report, the five hunting armies, as well as Lu Bu and Wei Yan, have not returned, presumably there will be more tomorrow morning.
Anyway, they can't live there, so they will all be stopped, and all the captive men will be escorted to the west bank of the Yue River, and a wooden city will be built for me overnight tonight, and the name of the wooden city will be Xiyue City.
Then ask the sea master to set off overnight, send some single women who can be assigned to some defenders with the three cities in the east, and match each defender with a concubine! ”
"No!"
The herald conveyed Cao Xing's order, and the officers and men of the Chu army rushed into the prisoner camp, and under the shouts of sticks and interpreters, all the male prisoners who had rested for a long time were pulled out.
The iron soldiers who braved the cold light, so that these iron weapons were scarce and mostly used stone and bone weapons, they chose to obey, and when they reached the river, the fleet of the sea division had already arrived here.
The captives looked at the huge ship that had subverted their vision, and before they could sigh, they were caught on the ship, transported to the west bank, and soon driven down again.
The ropes thick of their arms strung them into sugar gourds, and in this state, axes and hoes were thrown at their feet.
Anyway, the trees were dense, and even if they were strung together, they could cut down trees, and more prisoners of war did not have axes or hoes, so they became coolies who carried wood and laid down their hands.
Piles of bonfires lit up the earth and illuminated the captives who were working hard.
The edge of the campfires, where the darkness is dense and unattainable, is also the best place to escape, and many captives on the edge will peek into the darkness, hoping to escape and find a place to sleep.
"Ahh Help me! Help me! Spare me! ”
"Wang~Thorn~"
The wailing of the Funan native language was mixed with the barking of the military dogs, and the sound of the military dogs biting from time to time made all the captives feel chills in their hearts.
At this time, they only had one thought, how could they forget about the military dog, the military dog in the dark is much more powerful than a human, but fortunately they didn't run away first.
Under the escort of the Chu army and the deterrence of the military dogs, the captives were busy until midnight, and the fatigue slowed them down a lot.
"It's time to eat!"
The Chinese shouts made them look up, but they didn't understand what it meant, but the guards' eyes began to light up, and they all looked at the fireheads with wooden barrels.
The lid of the wooden barrel was lifted, revealing the porridge inside, which was full of seafood such as sea fish, shrimp, and conch, and a few pieces of wild vegetables floating on the top, making the whole air filled with fragrance.
