On the battlefield after the battle, the air was filled with a thick smell of blood.

Twenty Wei soldiers who were responsible for laying mines took on the task of dismantling mines that had not been detonated.

Barbarian warriors wearing the armor of the Wei army are cleaning up the battlefield.

Fragments of shattered limbs were everywhere, and the barbarian warriors threw dead foes into the pits they had just dug.

Digging pits to bury the corpses, by this time there was already a saying that it was safe to bury the body.

In fact, when people first buried corpses in ancient times, their ideas were not so complicated at all.

The corpse is exposed to the air, and if it is dragged away and eaten by wild beasts, it is still a good thing for the living.

If it is not dragged away by wild beasts, it will gradually decay over time, and it is likely to cause infectious diseases, causing the extinction of entire tribes or entire regions.

Burying corpses has evolved from simply to avoid the spread of disease, to its own unique saying.

Whether it is a foreign race or a Central Plains person, most of them will bury the enemy's corpse after the war.

However, burying the corpses of enemies is much rougher than burying companions.

The corpses were thrown haphazardly into deep pits, and the barbarian warriors filled them with dirt.

Jiang Wei, Huang Zhong, Xiahoudun, and Xiahou Yuan rode horses and walked slowly on the battlefield.

"The vulture ran away?" Jiang Wei asked.

"It's not just the vultures, but also Dong Dana and Ah Xu, all of them have run away." Xia Houdun replied: "I originally saw them, but someone stepped on a mine in front of me, and when I tried to chase them after the explosion, they were gone." ”

Xiahoudun and the others were sighing that they had not been able to kill the vulture bones, and brought the cave master to ride a horse to them.

"General Jiang, the vulture bone has suffered a big loss this time." Jiang Wei and the others were sighing for letting the vulture run away, and the cave master shouted with a happy face: "I didn't expect us to be able to beat them back so easily." ”

"The vultures are clutched?" Knowing that he didn't catch it, Jiang Wei still asked.

"Nope." The cave master shook his head in confusion.

When the two sides were fighting, there was an explosion in front of them, and the cave owner who had suffered a mine loss still had a shadow in his heart.

The explosions were repeated, and the owner of the cave did not dare to rush forward immediately.

By the time he stepped forward, the vulture and Dong Dana, Ah Xuan and others had already fled.

"How many enemies have we killed this time?" Jiang Wei asked again.

"There are less than 10,000 prisoners, and thousands of people should have been killed." The owner of the cave said: "More than 30,000 people ran away......

"More than 30,000 runs." Jiang Wei smiled slightly, and said to the cave master: "Even if 20,000 of them ran into the mountains and forests, there are more than 10,000 people around the vultures. Although more than 10,000 people cannot be compared with the 50,000 army, they are also a considerable combat force. The battle behind us is not as easy as you think. ”

Brought the cave master to look for Jiang Wei with joy, but he didn't expect to be poured a basin of cold water on his head, and the joy just now instantly disappeared.

"It's got to this point, what are we going to do?" The cave master, who calmed down, asked Jiang Wei.

"What else can I do?" Jiang Wei said: "The only way in front of us is to continue the pursuit until they are completely destroyed. ”

The cave master nodded, and then asked Jiang Wei, "What is General Jiang going to do next?" I will deliver commands on your behalf. ”

"Please give the order to the cave master on your behalf, so that the warriors can continue to follow me." Jiang Wei said: "Bring the cannons back first, but you can't expose them to the mountains and forests." A cannon without the protection of a warrior is like a tiger without its fangs, which can be easily destroyed by the enemy. ”

"I'll arrange for someone to bring the cannon back." The owner of the cave immediately agreed.

He went to convey Jiang Wei's military orders to the barbarian warriors, while Jiang Wei and Huang Zhong and others continued to patrol the battlefield.

"Since the lord developed the cannon, the battle is much easier than before." Accompanying Jiang Wei, Xiahou Yuan said: "The two armies are in formation, why do you need to shoot the enemy with bows and arrows?" As long as the muzzle of the cannon is facing the opposite side, a single cannonball hits it, and how many enemy troops have to be scattered. ”

"The lord said that in addition to cannons and mines, there seem to be more powerful killing weapons." Jiang Wei nodded: "I've seen explosives packets, but that thing doesn't feel as good as cannons and mines, and I don't know what the lord said." ”

"I've been with the lord for so long, when did I see him talking and not being able to do it?" Huang Zhong said with a smile: "The lord said that there are still killing weapons, as long as we wait with peace of mind, we will have a chance to see them sooner or later." ”

Everyone nodded.

It didn't take long for most of the barbarian warriors to gather and form a phalanx except for a small number of barbarian warriors who were still cleaning the battlefield.

Bring the cave master to Jiang Wei again: "General Jiang, the warriors are ready and ready to set off at any time." ”

"Let's go." Jiang Wei greeted Huang Zhong and the others, and took the lead in walking towards the barbarian warriors who formed a phalanx.

The phalanx of the barbarians was completely different from the phalanx of the Central Plains army.

Although they also set up a phalanx, the formation looked very messy, and there was no such majestic momentum as the phalanx of the Central Plains army, but more like countless undisciplined homeless.

"The battle just now, was it refreshing?" Riding a horse, Jiang Wei walked back and forth in front of the phalanx of barbarian warriors and asked in a loud voice.

"Refreshing!" The chaotic response was still full of laughter, and the barbarian warrior's answer obviously did not reach the momentum that Jiang Wei needed.

But Jiang Wei didn't feel unhappy because of this, he said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "The refreshing fight just now is because we have cannons and mines." Next, we don't have much opportunity to lay mines, and it's impossible for artillery to follow, do you dare to pursue the enemy? ”

"Dare!" This time, the response was quite neat.

"If you dare, then follow me in pursuit of the vultures." Jiang Wei shouted: "I heard that there are many beautiful women in the Zhurong tribe. I can't give other promises, break their tribes, divide the women, and the king of Wei won't blame me for this. When the time comes, each of you will be given three or five women, and won't you be happy every day when you bring them back? You don't have to compete with other clansmen. ”

Barbarians live in the Nanban region, where the environment is harsh, and the life expectancy of people and the survival rate of the children born and raised are very low.

Therefore, men pay more attention to reproduction.

Reproduction requires not only men, but also women.

In order to compete for women, not only do clans often fight with each other, but also clansmen often fight duels for a certain woman.

Jiang Wei said very loudly that he would assign three or five women to each of them, and the barbarian warriors' already high fighting spirit was suddenly pushed to the top, and then bursts of cheers were released.
