The uneasiness in his heart was finally fulfilled, and Guo Xin sent Cao Shuo out of the tent.

When he came to the tent, Cao Shuo saw that the soldiers had already formed a formation to meet the battle against the hurricane.

In the darkness in the distance, there was a strange cry of "wow", and many strong men with bare bodies carried crude weapons and pounced on the soldiers.

The weapons in the hands of those strong men are sharpened with bamboo or wooden sticks, and they are said to be weapons, but at most they can only be regarded as the most primitive hunting tools.

"Childe, there are savages coming to rob the camp." Guan Cheng ran to Cao Shuo's side and said to him.

"Have you done what you were told?" Cao Shuo asked.

"Don't worry, Childe, it's been done a long time ago." Guan Cheng replied: "I can't leave any of them." ”

While the two were talking, hundreds of savages had already pounced on the soldiers of Cao's army who were arrayed to meet the enemy.

The soldiers set up a wall of shields, and when the wild man collided with them, the lance in his hand kept thrusting forward.

After all, the weapons of the savages were not made of steel, and they were stabbed on the shields of the soldiers, and the tips of some weapons collapsed in an instant.

However, the weapons of Cao's soldiers were very sharp, and the savages who rushed up could not even knock out a gap in the array, and they fell to the ground one after another.

Cao Shuo was looking at the battlefield of the fight, and Guo Jia came to his side: "Childe, who are those people?" ”

"People from Yizhou." Cao Shuo said: "They attacked us for nothing more than two reasons. One may be that they feel that we have stepped into their territory, and the other is that they have seen that we have food and grass in our army, and they have come to rob us. ”

"These Yizhou people are not afraid of death." Guo Jia said: "They actually dare to use such weapons to attack the shield array of the soldiers under the command of Gongzi. ”

"Bonghyo doesn't think they're just that?" Cao Shuo smiled slightly and asked Guo Jia.

"How many more savages can there be?" Guo Jia said: "There are only a few hundred people in a tribe at most. ”

"If they think we might take their territory if we go ashore, it's certainly not a clan." Cao Shuo said: "Let's take a look first, maybe we will have a surprise tonight." ”

Guo Jia smiled noncommittally.

Even in the Central Plains, it is not easy to organize an army of tens of thousands of people, Yizhou is just an island, how many people can it have?

Hundreds of people came to rob the camp, which is quite a lot in Guo Jia's opinion.

The battle lasted for a short time, and the Cao soldiers forced the savages back.

Just as the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief, countless arrows flew in the darkness in the distance.

These arrows are very simple, and there are no metal arrowheads.

They were just small sharpened sticks that landed on their shields and made a "crackling" sound like raindrops in the wind.

The soldiers hid behind their shields, sheltering themselves from the oncoming rain of arrows.

The rain of arrows lasted not long, and with a strange scream, the wildlings launched a second wave of attacks.

"It's about time." Cao Shuo instructed Guan Cheng: "Collect the net!" ”

Guan Cheng agreed, and then shouted: "Blow the horn!" ”

As the order was given, a horn sounded in the Cao army's barracks.

Immediately afterward, Guo Jia heard the sound of a horn in the darkness in the distance.

"Childe has been in ambush for a long time?" Guo Jia asked Cao Shuo: "Didn't Gongzi ask when he went ashore, will there be anyone in Yizhou?" ”

"On such a big island, it's normal for people to have people." Cao Shuo said: "There are people on islands like Izumo, let alone Yizhou, which is so close to our Central Plains. ”

The horn sounded, and Cao's army launched a counterattack.

The battle didn't last long, but after an hour or two, the battlefield fell silent.

Hundreds of shirtless savages were tied up by Cao Jun's soldiers and knelt in front of Cao Shuo.

After walking back and forth in front of them a few times, Cao Shuo instructed Guan Cheng: "General Guan, let them all go." ”

"Released?" Guan Cheng asked in surprise: "Do you know that if you let it go like this, it will not be easy to catch it again......

"We are here to conquer, not to exterminate." Cao Shuo said: "Yizhou is different from Izumo, Izumo I want to make it a barren land, but Yizhou I expect it to develop and has always become an important part of our China." The people here have been on the same race as us for a long time, so how can I destroy them? ”

"Childe is really going to let them all go?" Guan Cheng asked uncertainly.

"Of course." Cao Shuo said: "Let them go, let them go." ”

Guan Cheng ordered the soldiers of the Cao army: "Let them all go." ”

Given the order, the soldiers untied the ropes for the wildlings.

When the rope was untied, the wildlings looked at each other, not yet understanding what was happening.

Cao Shuo waved his hand to them: "Go, go back." ”

Although he couldn't understand what Cao Shuo was saying, the wild man could understand his gestures.

They all stood up, and hundreds of wild men hesitated and turned to leave.

Some people kept turning back when they left, as if they were worried that the soldiers of the Cao army would put cold arrows in their backs.

"Yizhou has been conquered by Gongzi, and it seems that it won't be long before you can go to Zhuya Prefecture." After the savage left, Guo Jia smiled slightly and said to Cao Shuo.

"How does Fengxiao know that Yizhou has been conquered by me?" Cao Shuo asked him with a smile.

"Childe's method is to subdue them first, and then let them go, so that they know that we don't mean to take the initiative to attack." Guo Jia said: "Although this hurricane was not too violent, for the savages, their village could not withstand it. When the hurricane recedes, Gongzi will take the soldiers to help them, hasn't Yizhou already fallen into the hands of Gongzi? ”

As soon as Guo Jia explained this, Guan Cheng understood, he slapped his forehead heavily and said: "Childe's plan is really long-term, if it wasn't for Guo Gong to say it, I might not be able to figure it out for the rest of my life." ”

"Although we released the wildlings to make them understand that we are not hostile and that we can be safe as long as we do not attack, we still cannot let our guard down." Cao Shuo said: "Let the soldiers keep an eye on the movements of the savages, and wait for the scouts to bring back news." ”

Guan Cheng responded and conveyed Cao Shuo's order.

When the order was delivered, he was still muttering in his heart, no wonder they all said that Gongzi was invincible, thinking about it so long-term, it was strange that he could defeat the battle.

That night, Cao Shuo returned to the tent, and Guo Xin, who was not sleepy at all, greeted him and asked, "Husband, what's wrong with the outside just now?" ”

"Some of the natives of Yizhou may have come to rob the camp because they felt that we were hostile." Cao Shuo said: "Now that you have been repulsed, you can sleep peacefully tonight." ”

Hearing that the natives had been beaten back, Guo Xin breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's not early, let's go to sleep." Cao Shuo put his arm around her waist and said.

Guo Xin responded, and Deng Zhan's voice came from outside the tent: "Son Qiyu, a scout is back." ”
