Chapter Forty-Seven: Slaughtering the Village
The cold wind was biting, and the pedestrians who came and went on the street with their hands in their sleeves, and some people were wearing only one single coat in such a cold weather. This alone can show that the life of these border people is not very good.
Mu Yi took Liu Ruxue to find an inn to stay in, and then left the inn to enjoy the winter scenery of Yanmen Pass.
He is a man in two lives, and it is the first time he has come to Yanmen Pass. Standing on the city wall, you can clearly see the scars left by the impact of swords, guns and arrows on the city wall.
And how many of the traces left by these wars are buried here. How many bones were buried under the magnificent city walls? It is not an exaggeration to say that these walls were built of white bones.
The sky is blue, and a goshawk spreads its wings and soars in the sky. The mountains are undulating, and a cold wind blows, and the snow on the mountains flutters with the cold wind.
Standing on the city wall, Mu Yi secretly thought in his heart: "In the cold weather, the hands and feet of people who are frozen are a little numb, it is really not a good time to fight. If it is a peaceful and prosperous world, staying at home with a hot kang head for his wife and children, how cool it would be!"
It took most of the day for the captives to set up camp, and it was not until late in the evening that a horse-barring fence was erected, and tents were erected one by one.
After settling Liu Ruxue, Mu Yi returned to the barracks before it got dark.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Jia Xu told Mu Yi the news he knew one by one.
After listening to Jia Xu's words, Mu Yi knew the situation in front of him.
The leader of the Xianbei tribe around Yanmen Pass is called Budugen, and the leader of the Youzhou area is called Kebineng.
There were more than 50,000 cavalry under Budugen, scattered all over the place to fight grass valleys. In addition to the main force, the maximum is a team of two hundred people.
After a long time, Mu Yicai stood up and said, "Come on, spread the wind, rain, thunder and lightning!"
"Whoa!"
There was not much time, and the four of them walked into the big tent of the Chinese army.
"Meet the Lord......"
"Well, each person picks ten people, brings their own weapons, and goes out with a certain person at night to reconnoiter the enemy."
"Whoa!"
Hearing this, Jia Xu hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The lord must not!" The son of a daughter, he can't sit down! The lord is the commander of the three armies, how can he easily get into danger, it is better to send other generals to ......"
Mu Yi raised his hand and pressed it: "You must know the combat effectiveness of the Xianbei people, so that you can make corresponding arrangements." Otherwise, when you encounter Xianbei people, you will inevitably suffer if you don't know the details of others. For the time being, the affairs of the military camp will be handed over to Mr. Wenhe and Fengxiao, and he will come back within three or five days!"
……
As night fell, a crescent moon hung high in the sky. The branches of the trees blown by the cold wind whirred, and under the cover of the night, a team of dozens of people quietly went out of Yanmen Pass.
Yanmen County governs: Shanwu, Wuzhou, Zhongling, Mayi, Chengxian, Loufu, Yinguan, Wangtao, Juyang, Fanqi, Laoxian, Qiangyin, Huoyang, and Pingcheng.
Nowadays, there are Xianbei people in these more than a dozen county seats, and each county town has made preparations to defend against the enemy by closing the city gates, and many people have also taken refuge in the county seat.
However, these Xianbei people did not take the initiative to attack the county seat, but plundered the villages in pieces, making the entire Yanmen County smoky, and even the entire village of some villages was slaughtered, and the corpses fell to the ground like that, and no one cleaned up and buried them.
Mu Yi took dozens of guards trained by himself, and drove for most of the night in a row, and when he passed through a village, the scene in front of him made Mu Yi and the others have a strong murderous intent in their hearts.
The small village is not very large, that is, it looks like a dozen or so families.
By this time, the thatched houses in the village had been burned to ashes, and there were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, most of them old people and children.
What's even more hateful is that there is a woman who has been dead for a long time lying next to a haystack, and the woman's eyes are wide open, which shows how angry and unwilling she was before she died.
The clothes on the woman's body were torn into strips of cloth and thrown aside, lying naked ~ naked ~ naked next to the haystack, judging from the scars on the lower body, she had suffered more than one person's humiliation before her death.
The tears in the corners of the woman's eyes have frozen into ice beads, and there are blood stains on the corners of her mouth, probably because she can't stand the humiliation, or she is full of grief and anger and bites her tongue and commits suicide.
Next to the woman lay the body of a baby, which was not very large, and looked to be about one year old. However, the baby's belly was cut open by a sharp blade, and the intestines flowed all over the ground, and the blood flowing on the ground had already dried up and frozen.
Mu Yi's teeth rattled, the green tendons on his head burst out, put the baby's body next to the woman, slowly closed his eyes and said: "I don't have time to let you and others go to the ground now, so I can only cremate your corpses collectively, this revenge, even if you are broken, you will be avenged!"
Collecting all the corpses together, Mu Yi lit the haystack, quietly stared at the crackling corpses burning in the fire, gritted his teeth and said: "Those who offend me and kill my compatriots will all die, regardless of whether they go to heaven or earth!"
The wind, rain, thunder and lightning behind him roared in unison: "Die! Die! Die!"
"Mu Feng, take a look at the surrounding traces, in what direction are these animals going?"
"Whoa!"
Mu Feng agreed, ran out of the village with a torch, carefully inspected the village, and ran in front of Mu Yi with a fist and said: "Lord, there are more than 20 horses in total, according to the traces left by the horse's hooves on the ground, it should be in the direction of Ma Yi!" However, there are still some footprints left by straw sandals on the ground, and there are about a dozen people, who should have been taken from the village. There were also remnants of residual temperature and fragments of sparks in the burning traces of the houses, and according to time estimates, they were now no more than twenty miles at most. ”
Mu Yi's angry face looked particularly hideous under the light of the flames, and he just said one word lightly: "Chase!"
"Whoa!"
More than fifty people ran out of the village, and the flames burned in the small village, and more than a dozen corpses gradually became charred until the flames were extinguished.
Mu Yi came out this time just to reconnoitre, so everyone didn't ride horses, so they could only chase on two legs.
After a rapid march of about 20 miles, the light of the bonfire caught everyone's eyes.
Mu Yi took the lead in standing up, raised his hand to stop the person behind him and whispered, "The hidden figure is slowly approaching!"
Everyone nodded, and immediately dispersed and touched it under the cover of the trees.
The wind was blowing, but it was convenient for them to get closer and not be noticed.
In front of him was a sheltered mountain wall, in front of which there were five or six bonfires, one of which was surrounded by a circle of women to keep warm, and the other two were surrounded by two dozen Xianbei people who were roasting the fire and chattering and not knowing what they were saying.
However, seeing them talking and laughing, drinking and eating meat around the bonfire, Mu Yi could hardly suppress the killing intent in his heart.
After carefully observing the surroundings for a moment, Mu Yi made a sign language to everyone, which meant to say: "All charge, move and shoot!"
"The third update is sent! 》
