131.Chapter 131: Tian Feng confesses the Lord
"General!"
The general, who did not flee, shouted hoarsely.
"General!"
The 300 soldiers and the 100 officers and soldiers who had not yet fled looked at everything in front of them in disbelief.
That invincible and invincible general is now being picked in mid-air.
"Drink!"
Chen Xu shook his spear vigorously, and Huangfu Song's body was thrown at the general.
The general threw away the weapon in his hand, struggled to catch Huang Fu Song's corpse, and then dismounted and hugged Huang Fu Song's body, crying bitterly.
Those officers and soldiers looked at Chen Xu with hatred, their faces were hideous, and they had a strong murderous aura brewing all over their bodies, wanting to fight to the death and avenge General Huangfu Song.
When the Yellow Turban Army saw that Huangfu Song, the great enemy, was killed by Qu Shuai, they waved their weapons and cheered loudly.
"Qu Shuai, give the order to charge, kill all these officers and soldiers!" A soldier came to Chen Xu and shouted loudly.
"Kill all the officers and soldiers!" A thousand Yellow Turban soldiers shouted.
The east wind was still blowing, but the fire was getting smaller and smaller, and now it was almost extinguished, and the billowing smoke was beginning to dissipate.
Chen Xu looked at the red eyes of the four hundred officers and soldiers, and shouted: "Withdraw!" ”
Chen Xu's order was inexplicable not only for the Yellow Turban Army, but also for the officers and soldiers.
But Chen Xu didn't explain anything, he directly turned the horse's head and patted the horse to run in other directions.
The rest of the Yellow Turban Army, although they were unwilling to let go of the four hundred officers and soldiers in front of them, but the commander had given orders, how could they disobey?
For a time, only the corpse of Huangfu Song and those officers and soldiers with confused eyes were left on this battlefield.
They were originally full of hatred and wanted to fight to the death, and then follow General Huangfu. However, the sudden retreat of the Yellow Turban Army dissipated all the courage they mustered.
They gathered in front of Huangfu Song, looking at this famous Han general, crying loudly.
The Yellow Turban Army left, but Wu Ling's heart was full of grievances, and he couldn't help asking, "Qu Shuai, why did you let go of those four hundred people?" ”
Tian Feng was riding on a horse, and his face was also a little sad.
Although he was dissatisfied with Huang Fu Song's indiscriminate killing of innocents, Huang Fu Song was a famous general of the Han Dynasty after all. He worked hard for this empire, and in the end, it ended up like this.
The east wind whimpered, the water of the Hutuo River rushed endlessly, and the waves raised by the wind slapped hard against the west bank of the river.
They raised their heads vigorously, as if they wanted to pay homage to this deceased famous general.
Chen Xu reined in his war horse, looked at the still dark sky, and seemed to see a meteor slip down and fall in the distant sky.
"Could it be that this is the fall of the star?" Chen Xu sighed secretly in his heart.
Turning the horse's head, Chen Xu looked at the place where Huangfu Song died in battle, and said in a deep voice: "Although the officers and soldiers were defeated, there are still 400 elite cavalry of the Han Dynasty beside Huangfu Song. ”
"That's why, I didn't give the order to charge at the beginning, but I had to fight Huangfu Song alone."
"Huangfu Song's loyalty to the Han family is beyond doubt. He decided that I was a confidant of the Han family, and wanted to put me to death. ”
"However, he also knows that with the only four hundred men and horses in his hands, it is impossible to defeat us and others."
"When he heard that I wanted to fight him alone, he would happily agree."
"Because he knows it's his last chance. If he doesn't take the opportunity to kill me, he'll lose his chance forever. ”
"So at the beginning of the heads-up, he was determined to die, and every time he exchanged his life for his life."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly realized, they were all puzzled just now, why did their own Qu Shuai find Huangfu Song to fight alone.
Chen Xu continued: "Huangfu Song died in battle, and the four hundred officers and soldiers under his account have already become mourning soldiers. If we persecute too much, these people will fight to the death. ”
"In this way, even if we can eliminate these officers and soldiers, it will not be easy."
"You are all my Chen Xu's brothers, I don't want to see any of you die on the battlefield!"
When the Yellow Turban Army heard Qu Shuai's words, his heart was all moved. Their faces turned red and they shouted: "We will never fear death, and we are willing to fight with the officers and soldiers." ”
Chen Xu looked around at everyone, laughed loudly, and asked, "If I die in battle, where should I go?" ”
When the soldiers heard this, they were shocked, and they all said: "Qu Shuai has the protection of the Yellow Sky, how can he die in battle?" ”
"If Qu Shuai is really killed, we will also follow Qu Shuai!"
Hearing the words of the soldiers, Chen Xu had a smile on his face, and he said: "You are still willing to live and die with me, not to mention the corporal of the Huangfu Song's account?" ”
Although Huangfu Song is brutal and murderous, his ability to command the army is still commendable. He has won many battles and has long won the hearts of the army. ”
"Now that Huangfu Song has died in battle, how can his personal soldiers live alone?"
When the Yellow Turban Army heard this, they looked at each other.
Next to Huangfu Song's corpse, the general closed his eyelids for Huangfu Song with his hand. He wiped away a handful of tears and said loudly: "Since the general is dead, how can we live alone?" ”
After speaking, he drew his sword and killed himself.
Huang Fu Song's three hundred personal soldiers, seeing that the main general and partial generals were all dead, also drew their swords one after another, and shouted: "I am willing to die with the general!" ”
Then all the people killed themselves.
Of the remaining 100 officers and soldiers, more than 50 hesitated on their faces, remembering Huangfu Song's kindness to them on weekdays, and shouted loudly: "I am willing to die with the general!" ”
The east wind stopped, and the northwest wind howled again, and the cold wind and the sound of whimpering were like the cry of the sky.
Among the officers and soldiers, there were nearly 50 people left, and although they also wanted to die together, they did not have the courage to commit suicide after all.
Everyone stood on the spot, not knowing what to do.
Suddenly, one of them said, "If we all kill ourselves here, who can collect the body of General Huangfu?" ”
"We should keep a usable body and bring the body of General Huangfu back to the capital!"
"Yes, yes, bring General Huangfu's legacy back to the capital!"
These officers and soldiers seemed to have found an excuse for themselves not to die, and they responded one after another.
"Boom!"
At this moment, Chen Xu led a thousand cavalry of the Yellow Turban Army and rushed over again. Those officers and soldiers who had not yet killed themselves were all terrified.
People, once they are afraid of death, they can no longer muster up courage.
They watched the Yellow Turban Army kill violently, and they didn't care about taking Huangfu Song's corpse, so they shouted and fled in all directions.
"Pass my military order, kill them all!"
For these people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, Chen Xu did not have the slightest mercy and issued an order to kill without mercy.
A thousand people surrounded and suppressed fifty people, and it didn't take long for the heads of these people to become the battle exploits of the Yellow Turban Army.
The reality is so ironic, if they could have mustered up the courage just now and went to die with the rest of the officers and soldiers. Even though they are dead, they are still able to be respected by others.
However, they retreated, but they still did not escape for their lives, but they were infamous for being greedy for life and afraid of death.
Perhaps, there is no shame in running away; Survival is human instinct. From their own point of view, is it wrong to do so?
There is nothing wrong with it, absolutely nothing wrong with it!
But in this age of integrity, sometimes, it is more uncomfortable to live than to die.
"Wu Ling, you will lead another five hundred people to clean up the battlefield and hunt down those scattered officers and soldiers. Remember, for those horses that are alive, be sure to bring them back in one piece. ”
Feeling Qu Shuai's trust, Wu Ling straightened his chest and said loudly: "Obey!" ”
Chen Xu sent Wu Ling out to lead the troops, although he had the intention of training him, but it was not because there was no available person on his hands.
Previously, he sent out 2,000 Yellow Turban troops to chase down the defeated officers and soldiers, and he had already assigned all the little commanders under his tent.
Now there is no one available next to him.
Chen Xu dismounted, came to the corpses of Huangfu Song and those officers and soldiers who killed themselves, and gave them a deep look.
Seeing this, the Yellow Turban soldiers behind Chen Xu also followed the example of Qu Shuai and acted for the dead officers and soldiers.
No matter how much hatred there was in life, they were able to die in this way, and they were a group of men worthy of respect.
He shouted loudly and said, "Brothers, listen to the order and bury all these officers and soldiers. People die greatly, they are respectable, and it is better for us to let them be buried in peace. ”
Then, Chen Xu struggled with his face, but still walked in front of Huangfu Song and directly cut off his head.
For Chen Xu's actions, everyone felt incredible. Tian Feng even shouted: "Since General Huangfu has already died in battle, why do you still act like this?" ”
Glancing at Tian Feng, Chen Xu said, "His head is still useful." ”
After finishing speaking, Chen Xu didn't say much, and directly tied Huangfu Song's head to the war horse.
Seeing this, Tian Feng stopped talking.
Logically speaking, since the enemy is killed, their heads are the spoils of the victors. Chen Xu's actions are not qualified to be blamed by others.
But emotionally speaking, Huangfu Song is a famous general worthy of respect, even if he dies in battle, his body should not be insulted.
Chen Xu didn't explain too much, he came to Tian Feng, stared into his eyes and said, "People don't stand without faith, do you remember what Mr. promised me?" ”
Tian Feng was stunned for a moment, and then remembered the bet with Chen Xu: If the Yellow Turban Army can defeat the officers and soldiers and kill Huangfu Song, he will recognize Chen Xu as the master.
However, can you really achieve great things by devoting yourself to the Yellow Turban?
Tian Feng recalled in his heart what he had seen and heard during this time.
He suddenly discovered that the man in front of him, who had just reached the crown, had superb command ability, unparalleled wisdom, and vision far beyond ordinary people.
He is benevolent and cold-blooded, bold and careful, and has an unparalleled charisma, a broad mind, and a strong ambition to swallow mountains and rivers.
Aside from his identity as the Yellow Turban Army, how could this person not be the master he was looking for?
Thinking of this, Tian Feng no longer hesitated, he knelt on the ground and said loudly: "My subordinates have seen the lord!" ”
This 'lord' represents Tian Feng's loyalty.
Chen Xu knew that the upright and wise top strategist of the Three Kingdoms in front of him would be labeled as Chen Xu from then on.
He was overjoyed, helped Tian Feng up, and said, "I have Mr., just like Gao Zu has a ovary!" ”
