Chapter 2206 need to give an explanation(1/3)

Outside Yanmen Pass, a cold wind slid past the pass.

War horses and corpses of humans were everywhere.

The gate was closed, and a group of Jie people were busy dragging the war horses and human bodies away.

They carried the dying companions to the side, and the dead ones were carried to a neatly placed not far from the pass.

Not far from where the corpse was placed, many piles of valleys piled with firewood had been set up.

Looking at the piles of firewood, Cao Heng asked Cao Zhang beside him, "Will the Jie people burn the body of their companions?"

"They are different from us in the Central Plains." Cao Zhang replied: "If the people in the Central Plains burn their bodies after death, it is called crushing bones and ashes. But for the Jie people, they do not think so. They think that the flames are bright. If the corpse is burned, people can only move towards light after death."

"Different ethnic groups deal with corpses differently." Cao Heng said: "I just heard from my mother that when dealing with the bodies of soldiers who died in battle, we must dig deep holes to bury them. Moreover, we must bury our companions, and we must not have more than ten holes in one pit, and we must not throw them around at will. We must place them neatly to show respect."

"It is indeed the case when we deal with our companions' bodies." Looking at the pile of firewood piles high outside the pass, Cao Zhang said: "Actually, I have never understood why some aliens use firewood to deal with corpses. Firewood is needed. Don't they know that firewood can be exchanged for money in the market? Or we Central Plains people buried the bodies in the soil without burning them, and there is no smoke or fog. No matter how you look at it, they feel much more refreshing."

"Uncle San will think of these things." Cao Heng grinned. He looked at the corpse of the war horse dragged away by the Jie people and said with some regret: "If we can get so many dead horses back, the soldiers will have a lot of meat to eat. Now it's cheaper for Jie people."

"The Jie people do not eat horse meat." Cao Zhang said: "For them, war horses are family members. Every Jie people's horse is always brought out from their own home. If the horse dies, they will be buried, and the meat will definitely not be eaten."

"They even eat human flesh, how could they not eat horse meat?" Cao Heng frowned.

"I have said just now that war horses are family members to them, while we Central Plains people are livestock to them." Cao Zhang replied: "The eldest son thinks they can eat family members or livestock?"

"Treat us Central Plains people as livestock." Cao Heng clenched his fists: "I will let them know who is the beast and who is the human being!"

The first charge of the Jie people ended with arrows flying down from landmines and passes.

The Jie people who charged forward were shot and killed in groups without even touching the gate of Yanmen Pass.

Outside Yanmen Pass, the Jie people were still packing up their bodies and looking for their injured companions.

One or two hundred steps away from the gate, Shi Xieyi looked coldly at the battlefield that was being cleaned.

For the first time they charged, they lost at least thousands of warriors.

With so many people dead, they couldn't even touch the Yanmen Pass.

The leaders of the Jie people who were with Shi Xieyi did not dare to come over to find it boring when they saw that he had a bad face.

The night before, they were still saying that the people of the Central Plains were just a group of cattle and sheep to be slaughtered. At this moment, the fact that the cattle and sheep were not lost. Instead, they, the Jie people who called themselves jackals, were killed by many of them by the defenders at Yanmen.

"That's how it's fought?" Shi Xieyi turned his head and looked at the Jie people leaders behind him: "You told me last night that the people in the Central Plains were just a group of cattle and sheep. But now look at our warriors, our people lying there, while the people in the Central Plains laughed at us at the gate."

In fact, Shi Xieyi was in command of the entire battle, but he attributed the responsibility to the leader of the Jie people. The leaders who were lower than him dared not refute it at all.

"Who can tell me what method can be used to break Yanmen Pass?" Shi Xieyi asked the leader of the Zogawa people: "Who can stop me from losing so many warriors next time I attack?"

No one can respond. The Jie people have always been good at rushing, and their tactics have always been very simple, just rushing up and fighting.

When fighting against the people of the Central Plains, the Jie people always deal with more people against fewer people.

The soldiers of the Central Plains who were at a disadvantage in numbers were often divided and surrounded by the Jie people when most of them did not have war horses.

Such a tactic is so simple that it is incomprehensible that it still makes many great achievements in fighting against the people of the Central Plains.

But this time, they encountered a difficult bone.

Standing in front of you is Yanmen Pass leading to the Central Plains.

If they cannot break through Yanmen Pass, they will have no way to plunder the beauties and wealth from the Central Plains, and they will have no way to slaughter the people of the Central Plains, so that the people of the Central Plains can remember that the tribes of the Jie people cannot go just by wanting to.

Shi Xieyi originally had such an idea, but after the first charge, he found that this idea might be a bit too arrogant.

At least in front of the Central Plains people who own Yanmen Pass, this idea is indeed a bit arrogant.

Without the leader of the Jie people, everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Shi Xie.

Shi Xieyi frowned, his eyes swept across each of their faces, and his tone of questioning was even colder than before: "Do you have no choice? Can you only make me think about how to fight and how to seize Yanmen Pass?"

Still no one responded, all the leaders of the Capricorn people seemed to be suddenly mute, and there was not even a person who dared to look up at him.

"Okay! Very good!" Shi Xieyiyu pointed to a barbarian leader and said, "You will lead people to attack tomorrow. If you fail to break Yanmen Pass, you will not have to come back alive."

When the leader of the Jie people heard what he said, he was stunned: "Master, I didn't expect any way to break through the barrier..."

"I didn't expect to think on the battlefield." Shi Xieyi said coldly: "If you can't think of it when it comes to attack, then accompany the warriors to hell and want to go to hell."

The leader of the Jie people who were pointed by him knew that if he didn't argue, he would be killed if he really led the warriors to charge, so he said to Shi Xieyiyu: "I think it is not advisable for the king to order one person every day to lead the warriors to attack."

Shi Xieyi looked at him in surprise: "What did you say?"

"I mean it is not advisable to designate a person to lead the warriors to attack Yanmen Pass every day." The leader of the Jie people said: "To do things fairly, the king must use a fair method."

"I want to know, what fair way do you have?" Shi Xieyi replied coldly.

He did think of this problem, and it is indeed not advisable to designate a leader of the Jie people to lead the warriors to charge towards Yanmen Pass every day.

I didn't think of this just now, because I was too furious and neglected what I should have considered.

"That's right." Shi Xieyiyu nodded and agreed with the leader of the Jie people.

The leader of the Jie people breathed a sigh of relief, while the other leaders all hung their hearts in their throats.

"From tomorrow, I will make some wooden signs." Shi Xieyiyu said: "You will be asked to draw every night. If anyone draws the black one, the next morning will lead the warriors to charge. Once they rush out, the warriors can come back, and the people who lead them will definitely not be able to lead them. I want to see if you can think of useful ways to break the barriers. If you think of it, live, and die there if you don't think of it!"

He pointed toward the Yanmen Pass: "There are many warriors dead there, and not many of you."

His eyes finally fell on the face of the leader he had chosen before. Shi Xieyiyu said, "I can only make a sign tomorrow, but I will attack tomorrow morning. It is not appropriate for me to change anyone. You should think carefully tonight and what to do to break Yanmen Pass."

I thought I would not have to lead the warriors to break through the next day, but the leader of the Jie people did not expect that Shi Xieyiyu did not intend to let him go. He just decided that if Yanmen Pass was not broken, he would use his proposal to draw lots tomorrow night to decide who would lead the Warriors to attack.

"If the king can't make a signature today, I'm willing to do it for you." The leader of the barbarian said dissatisfiedly: "The king agreed with my statement just now. Whoever leads people to attack Yanmen Pass should be left to God to decide. If God thinks I should go, I will definitely not hesitate at all."

"I chose you, God has given the answer." Shi Xieyi asked coldly: "Do you think my choice is better than a signature?"

He was stunned by his question, and the leader of the Jie people didn't know what to say.

After a moment, his mouth moved, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.

"You don't have to think so much. I have told you that you will be the one who will lead the warriors to charge tomorrow morning. If you can think of a way to break through Yanmen Pass tonight, you will survive tomorrow." After all these words, Shi Xieyiyu stopped explaining to him and turned around and left.

Other leaders of the Ke people were afraid that they would have more contact with those who had received the offensive order the next day, and they would have caused bad luck, so they left one after another, and no one was willing to say something to him.

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

The Jie people attacked for the first time and were completely defeated by the Wei army.

The soldiers of the Wei army cheered when the Jie people retreated.

When the Jie people retreated, some Jie people began to deal with Cao Heng's permission, and the soldiers calmed down.

After experiencing the attack of the Jie people just now, Cao Heng commanded properly, and the defenders on the city were not damaged, and he actually shot and killed so many Jie people.

The defenders invisibly admired Cao Heng a little more. Just like Cao Shuo in the Battle of Wancheng, Cao Heng used his command ability to convince the defenders at Yanmen Pass.

Yang Fu, who witnessed the complete victory of the Wei army in the first battle, came to Cao Heng, who was standing at the gate and looking at the Jie people camp in the distance.

He bowed and greeted Cao Heng and said, "Congratulations to the eldest son for his victory."

"It's just a small victory." Cao Heng still looked into the distance, without even looking at Yang Fu: "When I capture and kill Shi Xieyiyu, it's not too late for you to congratulate me."

"With the eldest son's ability, it is definitely no problem to capture and kill Shi Xieyi." Yang Fu flattered.

"Governor Yang is speaking now, but he is getting more and more accustomed to him." Cao Heng turned his head and looked at him, grinning at him and asked, "Does Governor Yang have anything important to say?"

Yang Fu showed a hint of uneasiness on his face and said to Cao Heng: "A messenger just reported that the weapons transported from Penglai would take at least ten days to transport them to Yanmen Pass."

"Ten days?" Cao Heng's face turned cold: "Are they pulling a cart with a turtle?"

From Cao Heng to Yanmen Pass, due to Cao Zhang and Cao Zhi, Yang Fu preconceived that Cao Heng was a difficult master to serve.

His face turned cold. Yang Fu didn't even dare to look at each other, but just responded: "What the eldest son said is that they are indeed too slow."

"Send someone to send them messages." Cao Heng said: "Tell them that I don't accept any reason. I just need the weapons to come to Yanmen Pass as soon as possible. I will only give them five days in five days. If they can't deliver them within five days, they won't use them."

Cao Heng didn't make any sense at all. After a journey of more than ten days, he only gave the people who transported the weapons for five days. Yang Fu also felt that it was impossible to achieve it.

"In five days, let them deliver at least 20%." Cao Heng continued: "The rest can be delivered within ten days."

He felt relieved and said that he could deliver 20% of it within five days. Yang Fu breathed a little relieved.

If Cao Heng insisted on sending everything within five days, no one would be able to reach his instructions.

"I will send someone to convey the military order to the people who transport the military orders." Yang Fu responded immediately.

When Yang Fu left, Cao Heng looked outside the pass again.

The Jie people outside the pass did not intend to launch an attack. They had already calmed down and the camp did not sing and dance like the night before. It can be seen that the daytime battle was indeed very fatal to attack the Jie people.

Cao Heng won the first battle, and the soldiers guarding the pass ran around and told him.

The soldiers of the standing army who had already done their best to fight against the people of the Pujie in the Pass were also slightly relaxed.

Although it was at night, it was destined to be a sleepless night for the soldiers and civilians of Yanmen Pass.

The soldiers ran and told the people, all celebrating the achievements of the first battle in the Yanmen Pass of Cao Heng.

For Cao Heng, the first day's war was undoubtedly a good start, but for Shi Xieyi, it was a nightmare that he didn't want to have even a moment of more.

The King of Jie people was sitting in the tent, Shi Xieyi was very bad-looking.

Two Jie beauties sat on the left and right sides of him.
