Shi Xieyi talked with Cao Heng for a long time before realizing that he was being fooled.

He retreated hundreds of steps away from the gate with a blue face.

Standing at the juncture, Cao Heng saw dozens of Jie people riding horses in different directions.

"He summoned the warriors." Seeing this scene outside the pass, Yang Fu said with concern: "When the Jie people gather together, the soldiers from Yanmen Pass will be unable to resist..."

"There are 1,000 defenders in Yanmen Pass, and the total number of standing troops transferred from Youzhou is 5,000." Cao Heng asked: "Six thousand soldiers, can't they still defend a small pass?"

"The eldest son doesn't know." Yang Fu said with concern: "The Jie people siege the city differently than the ones we have seen before. They rely entirely on people to pile up. And they don't know where the Jie people learned from, and they don't need ladders, let alone siege towers. They just use ropes to grab hooks and go up the top of the city. In a blink of an eye, people will get on the top of the city."

"So vivid?" Cao Heng smiled and said, "Then I'll really take a good look."

He turned around and came to the side facing the inner gate.

The soldiers of the standing army who were ordered to be mobilized here earlier have received orders to close the following array.

When Cao Heng appeared in front of them, the soldiers raised their faces and looked at him with their eyes.

Holding the battlements, Cao Heng looked around the soldiers who looked up at him: "Soldiers, I just talked with the leader of the Jie people."

It is already known that there are Jie people outside the Pass, and the soldiers have already prepared for any possible response.

When Cao Heng mentioned the Jie people, some people had already thought that they would likely fight the Jie people to death.

The Jie people have been plaguing the Central Plains for a long time, and the Central Plains people, especially the Central Plains people in the north, have long hated them to the core.

The permanent troops of Youzhou were all from the north.

Their family even were killed and stolen by the Jie people.

Almost all the standing troops had long wanted to fight the Jie people in a desperate battle.

However, for a long time, their opportunities have not been many.

A few days ago, Cao Heng raided the Jie tribe, killed hundreds of Jie people, and snatched back three or four hundred Jie women, which was a great encouragement to the soldiers of the standing army.

Therefore, when Cao Heng appeared in front of them, they all looked at the youngest eldest son of Wei, who was quite handsome and respectful.

"I led people to attack the Jie tribe a few days ago. You must have heard of it." Cao Heng continued to shout: "I also snatched their women back, and asked the governor Yang to help sell them."

When Cao Shu said this, the soldiers burst into laughter.

No one thought about the fate of those Jie women who were sold. Everyone thought about the Jie people, and finally had such a day.

Relieve your anger! Relieve your hatred!

Although Cao Heng had no experience in leading troops, he could see from the expressions on the faces of the soldiers that the soldiers in the standing army were not afraid of fighting.

They even look forward to the war.

Turning his head to look at Yang Fu, Cao Heng asked in a low voice: "How many other Jie women have not sold them?"

"There are about thirty or fifty people." Yang Fu replied.

"Then give it to the soldiers." Cao Heng ordered.

Yang Fu bowed and agreed.

"I have a little news to tell you." Looking at the soldiers in the pass again, Cao Heng shouted: "I know that many of you hate the Jie people, but I have a gift to give to you. But I have to make an agreement with you to take out this gift, otherwise you will not be touched."

Cao Heng wanted to give them a gift, and when the soldiers looked at him, their eyes were full of confusion.

"I want to give you dozens of Jie women." Cao Heng said: "How can a soldier have no woman when he goes out to war? As a man, when he misses a woman, he can't find a mare to do whatever he wants."

When Cao Heng shouted, the soldiers were stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

They were stunned because they didn't expect that Cao Heng, the eldest son of the Great Wei, could even say such vulgar words.

They laughed because it was Cao Heng's words that made them feel intimate and close.

The standing army is all people who have struggled on the battlefield.

The people who crawled out of the pile of dead people all had a unique sense of pride.

They don’t like literary words, but instead prefer Cao Heng’s rude words.

"I'm giving you women." Cao Heng continued to shout, "But I want you to remember one thing. Even if they are just tools to solve men and women's affairs for you in the army, you have to remember that they are still women after all! Women are used to sleep, not to abuse or kill them! If I heard that anyone abused them or killed them, it must be a military law to deal with it!"

The two words "military law" have an absolutely lofty position in the army.

When Cao Heng shouted like this, all the soldiers "slapped" their legs together, and stood straighter with a solemn look on their faces.

"I'll give you the benefits." Cao Heng waved his hand and signaled the soldiers to a little casually: "Now I'll talk to you about bad things."

His face came solemnly, and his eyes scanned the soldiers' array again.

The soldiers present knew what he would say next, and they all held their breath and waited intently.

After pausing for a moment, Cao Heng shouted again: "The leader of the Jie people just talked about the conditions with me. He said that I went outside the pass a few days ago, killed their tribe members, and stole their women. If I don't want to make things worse, then each tribe member will compensate them for a cart of golden beads."

When talking about this, Cao Heng deliberately paid attention to the expressions of the soldiers, and saw that the soldiers all showed an angry look on their faces.

No wonder the soldiers were angry.

The Jie people often raided the Central Plains. They burned, killed, looted, and killed, and I don’t know how many people they harmed.

But they never said how much gold beads to be compensated to the Central Plains.

When the Jie people made such a request, the soldiers were of course full of righteous indignation.

"I have already replied to him, but I still want to know what you are thinking." Cao Heng asked the soldiers: "If you are asked to choose, will you agree or not?"

"Don't agree!" The uniform answer fully demonstrated the soldiers' determination to fight to the death with the Jie people.

"It seems that you are the same as me!" Cao Heng nodded with satisfaction and shouted loudly: "My answer is also that they can come to Central Plains, and I can go to their tribes as long as I can. But the days when the Central Plains people were bullied by them will be completely over from now on! As long as I, Cao Heng, are at Yanmen Pass, I will never give the Jie people the chance to act arrogantly again! If they dare to come, we dare to go! If Kou can go, I can go too!?"

"The eldest son is mighty!" The captain standing in front of the array shouted.

Immediately afterwards, the five thousand standing troops shouted: "The eldest son is mighty!"

The cheers of the standing army infected the defenders on the city.

Soon, the defenders on the front of the city cheered.

Shi Xieyi Yu Zheng, outside the pass, discussed with several Jie people's leaders about attacking Yanmen Pass. Hearing the cheers from the pass, he subconsciously looked over.

"What are they calling?" said a leader of the Capricorn: "Did you think you were going to die and be scared like this?"

"Do you think they were scared like this?" Shi Xieyiyu said: "They are cheering. This eldest son of the Great Wei Dynasty is not simple. It seems that we are not as easy as dealing with him as the local officials in the past."

"So what if it's not simple?" said the leader of the Jie people: "When I break through Yanmen Pass, I will take his head and offer it to the king."

Because they belonged to the Huns, the leader of the Jie people has always been called the King.

For a long time, the Great Khan of the Xiongnu used troops and also brought the Jie tribes.

As the Huns gradually declined and the Jie people grew stronger, although they were still called kings, they no longer obeyed the Xiongnu's self-employed arrangements, but they only maintained their original title.

Shi Xieyi didn't say anything, but just looked at Yanmen Pass and said silently.

He vaguely heard something from the cheers of the soldiers guarding the pass.

In the deepest part of his heart, he felt that this attack on Yanmen Pass was probably a mistake.

The decision has been made, and it will be too late to regret it.

As the king of the Jie people, in order to stabilize his position in the clan, he could only bite the bullet and let himself accept the upcoming war.

At the Yanmen Pass, Cao Heng, who had finished speaking to the soldiers, looked outside the pass again.

Yang Fu was with him.

His eyes were on the Jie people in the distance, and Cao Heng asked, "Governor Yang, how many landmines are there in Yanmen Pass?"

"The lord gave him more than a thousand pieces at the beginning." Yang Hong replied: "But it hasn't been used yet. Landmines are buried outside the gate. If the Jie people don't come, our people and merchants will not be able to move around."

"Please send all the mines to the gates." Cao Heng said: "Mines are not necessarily for burying, they can also be thrown."

Never expected that landmines would have such usefulness. Yang Fu asked in surprise: "Young Master is sure it's OK?"

"Of course." Cao Heng replied: "When I was in Shouchun, someone specially taught the usage of these new types of military ordnances. Do you even doubt what I said?"

"Don't dare." Yang Fu quickly responded, and then ordered the guards beside him: "Send all the landmines to the gate and leave them for the eldest son to call."

After Yang Yangfu's order was issued, guards immediately ran to transport landmines.

There were already buckets of oil on the top of the city, and the soldiers also set up the stove. As long as the Jie people gathered together, they could immediately light the stove and put the oil rack on it.

If stones larger than human heads are placed on the head of the city, these stones will become a powerful weapon to stop the Jie people from killing enemies.

Next to piles of stones are boxes of mines.

The soldiers guarding the pass have already prepared their weapons, and the only thing they have to do is wait for the Jie people outside the pass to launch an attack.

***************************************************

Shi Xieyi waited outside Yanmen Pass for more than ten days.

Within more than ten days, several Jie people would come almost every day.

As more and more Jie people arrive outside Yanmen Pass, the pressure on the guards of the pass is getting greater and greater.

Looking at the Jie people who came outside the pass, the soldiers licked their lips one by one. Their previous contempt for the Jie people has now turned into strong pressure.
