Chapter 70: The Village of Sin
Killed all the way, and when he arrived fifty miles away from Tanxian, Tao Ying heard that there was a general under Cao Cao in a village. The general occupied the entire village, and then locked up nearly 100 young and beautiful girls who had been plundered in the courtyard, and nearly 100 generals of the Cao army gathered in the courtyard, and they were lewd and happy in the village every day. The people all hated and were helpless, so when they heard Tao Ying's arrival, they hurriedly told Tao Ying.
At first, Tao Ying didn't believe it, he didn't believe that Cao Bing had such a bastard, so he wanted to lead the troops to take a look.
On the way to the village, the fleeing people heard that Tao Ying's soldiers and horses were coming, and they all wanted to come back to fight Cao Bing together. Running all the way, Tao Ying pulled up nearly 4,000 soldiers and horses, as soon as he heard that Tao Ying was coming, even the bandits from the three mountains and five mountains came to take refuge in Tao Ying, such a mixed team was formed, Tao Ying felt a little embarrassed.
Along the way, the common people led the Peng Cheng soldiers to attack the small Cao soldiers everywhere, and now Cao Cao beat Tao Qian in the city and did not dare to come out, so the Cao soldiers who robbed were everywhere outside the city. After killing a Cao soldier along the way, the common people stripped off their armor and put it on their bodies, took their weapons and continued to kill other Cao soldiers.
So when Tao Ying arrived at that small village, the army had grown to nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses, and plundered thousands of dens of grain and grass, and the treasures taken from Cao Bing alone were loaded into two full carts!
When I arrived at the Mijia Village, some people said that there was a general of Cao Cao in the Mijia Village, and that man had nearly 5,000 soldiers and horses, but his soldiers and horses went out to rob, so there were 2,000 soldiers and horses in the village, and there were at least 500 looted girls in it!
As soon as he heard that the soldiers insulted the women of good families, bad names, especially in ancient times when they paid attention to honor and honor as life, Tao Ying gritted his teeth angrily.
Regardless of whether he was a general who could beat him or not, Tao Ying led the soldiers and horses to surround Mijiazhai at night. Mijiazhai is still a song and dance, the night is getting deeper and darker, and Tao Ying has not sent troops for a long time. After the third watch in the night, Tao Ying suddenly asked the cavalry to start charging Mijia Village, and the cavalry had broken through the gate of the village, but still did not see the soldiers in the house beating drums to call the police.
When Tao Ying arrived at Mijia Village, he found that the road was full of drunken soldiers, and piles of soldiers were lying on both sides of the road, lying in a mess like a looted village.
Tao Ying walked all the way to a relatively luxurious mansion in the village, which was where the generals lived, and those generals took off their essence one by one, and they all hugged nearly three or four girls around them.
Anyone who could resist, the bows and crossbows of the cavalry let them go to the west one by one, and those who were drunk, Tao Ying ordered them to be tied up one by one.
Looking at everything unsightly in front of him, Tao Ying was suddenly furious! Many fifteen or sixteen-year-old girls were stripped of their clothes and tied to pillars, and they seemed to be unable to endure such humiliation, and one by one they committed suicide by biting their tongues.
The girls lying on the ground also cried into tears one by one, seeing Tao Ying, they were afraid to find a place to hide, they seemed to be too afraid and didn't dare to move.
Looking at them, Tao Ying suddenly remembered Miss Gan, Miss Gan was the same age as them, if it was Aunt Gan in front of him, what would he become? Anyway, Tao Ying didn't dare to imagine!
Gritting his teeth, Tao Ying went up and pulled out a knife and stabbed five or six Cao generals to death in a row. After killing Cao Jiang, the girls knew that it was the savior who came, and they were all relieved.
Relieved because they didn't have to live in humiliation anymore, if they didn't make fun of the beasts, they would kill their families. Now the family is fine, but they have long since lost their honor, and they all crashed into the pillar and died.
Tao Ying asked people to cover their corpses with clothes, and then thought that they couldn't just cheap this group of Cao soldiers, so Tao Ying ordered all Cao generals to be tied up and tortured slowly!
After tying up dozens of generals, one by one they were still drunkenly shouting about the beauty. Tao Ying let people wake up with water, and after a basin of water went down, Cao Jiang suddenly came to his senses. One by one, the generals woke up suddenly, and saw Tao Ying sitting on a big chair, and Yu Ban next to him was dumbfounded.
Tao Ying gritted his teeth, pointed to the Cao general who was the leader and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The general knelt on the ground and bowed his head and reported his name, he was a small person, not Cao Cao's real general, he only had more than 5,000 soldiers and horses under his command.
Tao Ying wanted to kill him, but when he thought about it, he immediately rejected the idea. Tao Ying's face changed, and he suddenly became gentle, then got up and walked to the general, untied the rope on his body, patted him on the shoulder and asked, "Have you ever heard of the name of Tao Ying in Xuzhou?" ”
When it came to Tao Ying, the man nodded hurriedly, who doesn't know the name of Tao Ying in Xuzhou? Caught in Pengcheng, Surabaya defeated Cao Chun, Wu Yuan rejected Cao Cao, and signed an agreement with Cao Cao next to Surabaya! What's more, now that I have been caught by others, if I want to live, I have to say that I know if I don't know!
Tao Ying saw his frightened look, and said, "Don't be afraid, I won't kill you." While I am employing people, if you transfer your soldiers and horses to surrender to me, I will ensure your glory and wealth! ”
As soon as he heard that Tao Ying had surrendered to him, the general hurriedly knelt on the ground and called out to the lord, Tao Ying asked him to gather the soldiers and horses, but he said that the soldiers would come back by tomorrow morning, and when the time came, he should lead the people to surrender!
This sleepless night, Tao Ying asked people to personally look at the generals led by him, and the other generals were also watched by Tao Ying one by one. By noon on the second day, thousands of soldiers and horses were gradually coming in from all directions.
The soldiers who returned all had a harvest, some captured nearly hundreds of women, some captured hundreds of strong men as slaves, some brought a lot of grain and grass, and some brought gold, silver and jewels that had been looted.
As soon as the soldiers arrived, Tao Ying asked the general to announce his surrender, and I heard that it was the heavenly general Tao Ying who arrived, and captured so many generals overnight, and this time the commander of the army came to Cao Cao's general, and the soldiers could only reluctantly accept the surrender. Tao Ying didn't say much, and let his soldiers escort all the people and horses they captured were confiscated.
The women were freed, and the slaves were freed, and the slaves also picked up weapons one after another and participated in Tao Ying's soldiers and horses. So Tao Ying led the army towards the south gate of Tanxian County, and when he arrived outside the south gate, he looked at the black soldiers and horses outside the city, there were at least 10,000 of them, and the frightened generals guarding the south gate hurriedly went to tell Tao Qian, and they didn't dare to let Tao Ying enter the city.
Tao Qian was very relieved to learn that Tao Ying's reinforcements had arrived at the south gate, Tao Ying wanted to enter the city, and everyone advised Tao Qian to get up in the study.
The wind and rain are coming, and it seems that it can't be stopped. In Tao Qian's study, except for the general who guarded the city, everyone else was waiting by Tao Qian's bedside.
The room was a little hot, and the maid kept fanning Tao Qian, and the strategists next to him bowed and played.
"Lord, the second prince led so many soldiers and horses to come, I'm afraid it will be ...... to save Pengcheng."
Cao Bao next to him said with some concern, but Mi Zhu said: "No, if the second prince is not good for the lord, he will send troops to pursue him in Xiapi City that day." What's more, the second son has always been very filial to the lord, even if the lord arrives in Tan County, the second son often sends people to say hello, and I can let the second son enter the city. ”
After Mi Zhu finished speaking, there was a quarrel in the house again, Liu Bei was silent beside him, Tao Qian was lying on the bed and pointed at Liu Bei, Liu Bei replied: "I can also let the second son enter the city, the second son suddenly attacked Xiapi last time, not without slaughtering the people, he just had a gap with Lord Cao." Today's son is under Pi, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, which shows that the second son is a righteous gentleman! ”
Tao Qian nodded, after all, he was his son, and he still saw Tao Ying's change in his heart. Therefore, the others still wanted to persuade them, but Tao Qian interrupted them with a wave of his hand.
An order from the Assassin's Mansion quickly went down to the south gate, and Tao Ying led 10,000 soldiers and horses to the south gate of Tanxian County.
After settling the soldiers and horses, Tao Ying took Yu Ban and other generals to meet Tao Qian. Crossing most of Tan County, the people in Tan County hid in their houses and did not dare to come out, and the streets were full of soldiers and countless villagers. This time, Cao Cao's slaughter strategy wanted to shock Xuzhou, but he didn't want it to make the military and people of Tanxian County more united.
The two fast horses passed through the center of Tanxian County until they reached Tao Mansion, and Tao Ying saw his eldest brother Tao Shang who came to greet him as soon as he got off the horse. Tao Ying hurriedly said: "Big brother, don't come unharmed, last time I didn't come to today, big brother has lost a lot of weight!" ”
The pottery merchant also hurriedly pulled Tao Ying and said: "Father has been talking about you a lot, I can't blame you that day, and my father also knows, but my father and Lord Cao are close friends, so I ......."
Tao Ying smiled and replied, "This matter has passed, let's go in and talk." I didn't know that Cao Cao would attack Xuzhou again, otherwise he would have sent troops to rescue him. At the beginning of the month, Wuyuan officials came to Pengcheng, saying that there was another war in the north, and many people fled into Wuyuan. ”
"It's not too late, it's not too late, and it's to blame my father for refusing to inform you!"
The two of them said a word, and they went all the way to Tao Qian's study, where the door was open, the carved windows, the vermilion wooden door, the campus was full of trees, and there was an artificial river gurgling.
This courtyard is more than ten times more exquisite than the courtyard where he lives in Pengcheng. Entering the house, Tao Ying saw a bed on the east side of the wide room, Tao Qian was helped up and was leaning against the wall looking at himself. Tao Qian is much older again, and his eyes seem to be a little unable to open.
Tao Ying was a little sad, and knelt on the ground with a puff and shouted: "Son Tao Ying has seen my father!" ”
Tao Qian coughed a few times and waved his hand to signal him to get up, Tao Ying knelt on the ground and didn't dare to look up, and the pottery merchant hurriedly went over and helped him up. After getting up, Tao Ying greeted many officials next to him one by one. These people hated Tao Ying a little, but they were also a little grateful to him.
Hate him because he took their property, and thank him for letting them go. Even Cao Hong returned the salute to Tao Yingyi: "Childe put the child back, thank you so much for Childe's kindness!" ”
After seeing each other, everyone asked Tao Ying how to retreat from Cao's soldiers, but Tao Ying said: "Don't worry, I'll introduce you to a new general of mine, and he will lead the troops this time!" ”
After Tao Ying finished speaking, a person walked in outside the door. Everyone didn't know who it was, so Yu Ban hurriedly saluted: "The sin will be forbidden to see the history of Tao Thorn!" ”
