110. Chapter 110

Killing Wei Cao Pengshi, Chen Xu did not show any happy look on his face.

No matter what Wei Cao Pengshi's own talent was, he still scolded until he died, and he had no intention of begging for mercy. This alone can get Chen Xu's respect.

Chen Xu recalled what Yu Cao Pengshi said and was silent.

Wei Cao Pengshi's approach is not wrong, as a general of the county, he eats the king's fortune, shares worries for the king, and ambushes and kills the Yellow Turban Army is exactly where his duty lies. On the contrary, if he did not do so, he would be incompetent.

Different stances have different ways of looking at the problem. There is no right or wrong thing about each being the master of the battlefield.

Thinking of this, Chen Xu sighed.

During the Three Kingdoms period, there were too many characters he liked. However, who can say what will happen in the future? Maybe one day in the future, Chen Xu will meet these people he once liked.

Even, he may personally cut off their heads.

"If Guan Yu kills my brother, will I cut off his head? If Guo Jia defects to the enemy, will I find a way to kill him? ”

Chen Xu asked himself, if he really encountered this kind of thing, the answer he gave must be yes.

People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves.

At this time, although there is no such thing as 'rivers and lakes', the truth is also the same. Chen Xu is now the commander of the first army, he can't do things according to his preferences, but has to take care of the emotions of tens of thousands of people under his command and fight for their future.

"Sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat. In this troubled era, if you can't move forward bravely, strive for the top. My heads and those of my men will eventually become a show off for others. ”

Chen Xu clenched his fists and thought secretly in his heart. Since coming to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, his mentality has been constantly changing, becoming mature and calm.

"Qu Shuai, do you want to cut off this guy's head and hang it on the flagpole, and throw his corpse out to feed the wild dogs?"

Xiao Shuai, a member of the account, saw that Wei Cao Pengshi was heartbroken, and he was very happy, so he asked Chen Xu.

Chen Xu was not the slightest surprised by Xiao Shuai's inquiry. In war, it is very common to cut off the enemy's head. In this way, since it can show off its military exploits and deter the enemy, many commanders will act in this way.

As for dragging the enemy's corpse out to feed the dogs, it also shows that he hates this person, and he can't rest even if he wants to die.

Shaking his head, Chen Xu said: "This person will not change his face until death, and he will curse in his mouth, and he is a loyal and righteous man." Since ancient times, death is great, and since we have taken revenge, we should not waste his body and bury it thickly. ”

When Xiaoshuai heard this, he no longer spoke.

In the camp of the headquarters of the Yellow Turban Army, more than 2,000 officers and soldiers led by soldier Cao Pengshi were almost completely annihilated by the Yellow Turban Army. After the end of the war over there, some marshals were worried about Chen Xu's safety, so two marshals led a thousand Yellow Turban troops to the officer and soldier camp.

Chen Xu was counting the seized materials when he suddenly heard a 'boom' sound and felt a slight vibration on the ground. He chuckled and muttered to himself, "I didn't expect the war over there to end so soon." ”

After finishing speaking, Chen Xu didn't get up, and directly asked the others to go to greet him.

After counting the seized booty, the east was already white. From yesterday to today, Chen Xu was first chased and killed by officers and soldiers, and then attacked the camp of officers and soldiers.

After capturing the camp of officers and soldiers, he counted the supplies overnight and has not rested until now.

With a big yawn, Chen Xu rubbed his somewhat sour eyes, got up and stretched.

"It would be nice if the Jun Pavilion was here."

Chen Xu's body was a little tired, and he couldn't help but think of Wang Yan who went to Taishan County.

Wang Yan has read poetry and books since he was a child, and is full of talent. Although he is still a little immature, as long as he is baptized by the years, he will become a great weapon in the future.

When Wang Yan was there, Chen Xu had always handed over all the miscellaneous items in the army to Wang Yan to deal with, but he himself became the shopkeeper.

Wang Yan was able to handle these affairs very well every time, which once made Chen Xu think that it was a very easy thing to deal with the sundries in the army. It wasn't until Chen Xu personally took over these sundries that he felt the difficulties.

Chen Xu shook his spirits and shouted outside the door: "Someone." ”

When one of them heard the shouting, he lifted the curtain of the big tent and stepped forward and said, "What do you command?" ”

Rubbing his brows, Chen Xu asked this person, "Have all the people in this village been transferred?" ”

The man replied: "Hui Qu Shuai, we are already cavalry, and we are traveling lightly, and the people and horses of this village have already been transferred here." ”

Hearing this, Chen Xu nodded.

The camps they set up themselves were very rudimentary, far from being comparable to those of officers and soldiers. Moreover, in the camp of the officers and soldiers, there are countless grains and grasses, so Chen Xu ordered the people of this village to rise up and come here to meet.

"You go and summon the rest of the little marshals over, and then let the gang hold a feast to reward the three armies, and you don't need to worry about food, grass, and meat."

When the man heard this, his face was overjoyed.

Since Guangzong's grain and grass were burned down by Huangfu Song, although the Yellow Turban Army did not tighten their belts to live, they also had to make careful calculations, and the soldiers had not eaten and drunk for a long time.

Therefore, when he suddenly heard that he was going to have a big feast, he would be so happy.

"By the way, bring the boy who killed the soldier Cao Pengshi here." Just as the man was about to leave, Chen Xu suddenly stopped him and said.

Chen Xu didn't wait long, and those little handsomes arrived one after another.

Everyone was not idle, they had been dealing with the affairs of the army, and when they heard the call of Qu Shuai, they didn't dare to slack off, and hurried here.

Not long after, the boy also came to the door of the tent, and after reporting it, he came in. He saw that the tent was full of Yellow Turban Army commanders, and his face was a little panicked.

Seeing this, Chen Xu smiled and said, "This place is all your own brothers, you don't have to be restrained." ”

After speaking, Chen Xu beckoned everyone to sit down.

In this era, there were no stools or anything like that, people were kneeling on soft cushions.

The only formal sitting posture in ancient China was kneeling.

Kneeling is a sitting posture that shows respect to the other person, also known as sitting upright. The posture is to sit on the ground, with the buttocks on the ankles, the upper body straight, the hands on the knees in a regular manner, the body temperament is dignified, and the eyes do not squint. Not only for subordinates to superiors, but also for superiors to subordinates.

Sometimes, in order to express the solemnity of speaking, the buttocks leave the heels, which is called kneeling.

Over the years since coming to this era, Chen Xu has long been accustomed to this sitting posture.

After everyone knelt down, Chen Xu knelt up and said, "I counted the loot captured this time, and found that the weight of grain and grass obtained was countless. ”

"Although our army is not short of food now, it can also be stockpiled in case of emergency."

"However, our original intention was to go north to rescue Xia Quyang, and to travel lightly with cavalry. Many of the materials seized this time need to be pulled by baggage trucks. If we carry these burdens forward, it will not only slow down the speed of the cavalry, but also give the officers and soldiers the opportunity to surround and intercept them. ”

After speaking, Chen Xu looked at everyone and stopped talking.

The faces of the little handsomes also showed tangled looks.

Most of these people came from poor backgrounds, and if they threw away the spoils of war, everyone was a little reluctant

After being silent for a while, one of them finally said: "Shuai Qu, since you can't carry these loot, it's better to burn them all with a fire, so as not to cheapen those officers and soldiers after we retreat." ”

When the rest of the people heard this, they also responded. It is already very painful not to be able to take them away, and if they are abandoned here, and finally let the officers and soldiers capture them back, how can they be willing?

Chen Xu looked around at everyone, and when he saw the young man sitting at the end, he wanted to speak and stopped, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Ah Ling, do you have any good suggestions?" ”

The young man's real name is Wu Ling, he suddenly heard Qu Shuai ask him, his face turned red, and he stammered a little and said: "Qu, Qu Shuai, small, the villain is soft-spoken, how dare you speak here?" ”

When Chen Xu saw Wu Ling's appearance, he laughed and said jokingly: "I heard that you can speak well on the battlefield, and you played tricks on the officers and soldiers, why did you get here, and you couldn't even speak smoothly?" ”

When Wu Ling heard this, his face flushed with shame.

He has always been proud of the fact that he played those officers and soldiers on the battlefield and dragged them down. After the war was settled, he boasted about his robe, but he didn't want to preach in Qu Shuai's ears.

The little handsome present had also heard about Wu Ling's deeds more or less, and he also laughed.

After everyone was happy, Chen Xu's face turned straight and said: "We are all brothers, if Ah Ling has an idea in his heart, it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

The young man took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to say loudly: "We were all born poor, don't you know that food is not easy to come by, and the people are struggling to survive? ”

"Since we can't take these baggage with us, why don't we give them to the local people?"

"In this way, the baggage will not be left to the officers and soldiers, and the people will also be grateful to our Yellow Turban Army, so why not?"

When everyone heard this, their faces were stunned. Chen Xu's face was even more joyful, and he stroked his palms and laughed: "This plan is wonderful!" ”
