The raid battle was over, and the neighing of horses and the cries of women and children could be heard from time to time in the messy camp.
Zhao Ziliang sat on the horse, stuck the horse's twig on the ground, took off his helmet, and let the rain wash over his head.
On face and body.
Wiping the rain off his face, Zhao Ziliang put on his helmet again and shouted: "Huo Kan" "Here" Huo Kan's voice came from not far away.
As the sound of horse hooves progressed, he rode over and cupped his hands and said: "Deputy Lord" Zhao Ziliang said: "Remember the real purpose of our coming here.
The raid on the Hera tribe's camp is just to prepare for what we will do next.
It's raining heavily now and the sky is dark.
I can't see clearly.
I'm worried that something will slip through the net." , once someone runs away and leaks the news, it will be extremely detrimental to what we are going to do next.
I want you to lead fifty people to patrol and search around the camp.
You must not run away.
Even if someone runs away, there is no The horse will definitely not be able to run far, and it is still too late to catch up now."
"Nuo" Huokan handed over and prepared to leave.
"Wait a minute."
Zhao Ziliang stopped Huo Kan again and said, "Tell the brothers, it's raining heavily and the sky is dark.
I know the brothers are cold and hungry, but I hope the brothers can overcome it.
When it gets light, we can warm up by the fire again.
Kill cows and sheep and drink hot soup.”
"Understood, Deputy Fortress, don't worry" As soon as Huo Kan led the people away, Wei Meng rode over and reported: "Deputy Lord, we killed a total of 526 people and captured 251 people, all of whom were old, weak, women and children.
Eleven of us died in the battle.
People, injured twenty-eight people.”
Zhao Ziliang ordered: "Hurry up and ask Doctor Chen to come over and treat the injured soldiers.
Send people to conduct a detailed search inside and outside the camp.
No one can be spared."
"Nuo" Wei Meng agreed, and then asked: "What should we do with the old, weak, women and children we captured?"
Zhao Ziliang couldn't make a decision for a while.
If he followed the rules of his previous life, he could not harm these old, weak, women and children.
In this dynasty, it was not uncommon to massacre unarmed people, but Zhao Ziliang was worried that his soldiers would react to this.
The incident caused psychological conflict.
He was not sure what his subordinates would think, so he could only ask: "Wei Meng, what do you think is the best way to deal with these old, weak, women and children?"
Wei Meng cupped his hands and said: "Deputy Lord, if you follow my wishes, it would be better to kill them all."
Zhao Ziliang asked: "Why?"
"As the saying goes, people who are not of my race must have different thoughts.
For these barbarian tribes, the people are both soldiers, and the soldiers are also people.
If we don't kill them, they won't feel grateful because we let them go, just because we killed them.
Their relatives and tribesmen, as long as there is a chance in the future, they They will use the most cruel method to retaliate against us.
In order to avoid future troubles, it is better to kill them all.
Moreover, we still have big things to do.
If we keep them, we must send people to guard them, and our troops are limited now. , I’m afraid we won’t be able to spare the manpower to guard them.”
After hearing Wei Meng's words, Zhao Ziliang asked again: "Do other soldiers think so too?"
"My subordinates think that their thoughts should be the same as those of my subordinates."
Zhao Ziliang's face gradually became resolute, and his eyes became firm.
He turned to look at Wei Meng and said: "Since ancient times, if kindness does not lead the army, just do what you just said.
Remember to dig a hole and bury them all after you finish it."
Come on, don’t leave corpses everywhere, it’s easy to cause a plague.”

"Nuo" Wei Meng agreed, pulled the reins, and the horse turned around and left.
When dawn was about to break, Wei Meng and Huo Kan's teams searched out a few fish that had slipped through the net from inside and outside the camp, and Zhao Ziliang ordered all of them to be chopped down with one knife.
After the sky turned white, the heavy rain stopped.
Zhao Ziliang arranged for personnel to conduct reconnaissance and patrols nearby.
He also arranged for personnel to kill cattle and sheep to boil water and hot soup.
He ordered people to set up several huge bonfires in the camp, and asked the soldiers to take turns to warm the fire and put the wet The transparent clothes are baked to dry.
Zhao Ziliang inspected the camp, and when he came to the middle of the camp and looked at the boiling mutton soup in the cargo pile, he shouted: "Zheng San, Zheng San" "Here it is, here it is."
Zheng San ran out of nowhere, "Brother Liang, I'm here."
Zhao Ziliang said: "Put more ginger, pepper and pepper into the mutton and beef bone soup to help the brothers get rid of the cold.
Send a few people outside to find some wild vegetables and put them into the broth to cook together."
"Promise" Zheng San agreed and called a few soldiers to go out to look for wild vegetables.
In the tent, Zhao Ziliang was wrapped in a wool blanket and warming himself by the fire.
Armor and clothes were hung aside to bake.
The curtain at the door was lifted.
He looked up and saw Chen Mingqian.
He quickly stood up and asked, "Doctor Chen, those injuries?"
How is the situation with the soldiers?"
Chen Mingqian wiped the sweat from his forehead, sat across from Zhao Ziliang and sighed: "Hey, Chen tried his best, but two people are still completely disabled.
I'm afraid they will only be able to work as grooms and cooks in the future, or else He left the army and returned to his hometown.”
Zhao Ziliang was silent for a few seconds and then comforted him: "Mr.
Chen, don't blame yourself.
You have done your best.
Eat something to fill your stomach."
As he said this, he took out a piece of mutton from the boiling pot and put it on a plate.
Inside, a soldier took it and handed it to Chen Mingqian.
Zhao Ziliang cut the pieces of meat with a knife and put them into his mouth to chew.
While eating, he asked casually: "Mr.
Chen, I know that your medical skills are very good.
You even know some things that need to be paid attention to when practicing martial arts and how to assist in practice.
Yes.
Well, what on earth did you commit to be sent to this bitter and cold place?"
Chen Mingqian ate mutton and listened to Zhao Ziliang's questions, with a wry smile on his face.
Zhao Ziliang saw this and said quickly: "If Mr.
Chen doesn't want to say it, you don't have to say it.
I'm just asking casually."
Chen Mingqian sighed: "There is nothing I can't say, but if I say it, I don't know if the deputy fort master still has the guts to let me stay in Tuoyun Castle anymore."
Zhao Ziliang smiled and said: "I think you are not a bad person, as long as you did not murder the emperor, it will be fine.
The sky is high here and the emperor is far away.
Even if the powerful prime minister and relatives of the emperor want to control Tuoyun Castle, I am afraid they will not be able to do so.
Don’t worry, Mr.
Chen” Chen Mingqian felt relieved and immediately said: "Actually, I was an imperial doctor.
I offended a nobleman in the palace, so I was accused and sent here."
Zhao Ziliang was surprised and said: "So you are an imperial doctor, no wonder your medical skills are so good.
It seems that we have found a treasure in Tuoyunbao.
Come on, Mr.

Chen, eat more and drink some broth to relieve the cold."
While the two were talking, Wei Meng, Huo Kan and Zheng San walked in one after another.
Zhao Ziliang greeted them to eat something, drink soup and warm themselves up by the fire.
Zheng San gnawed on the cow bones and said vaguely: "Brother Liang, Captain Huo and the others have recovered all the horses that escaped from the Hera tribe.
There are a total of 1,200 horses in the camp this time, including war horses." , 1,800 cattle and 2,220 sheep.
Now that all these livestock belong to us, what should we do with these livestock?
Should we kill the meat and make it into dried meat or send people to drive all the cattle, sheep and horses back?
"Toyun Castle" Zhao Ziliang thought for a while, took a sip of the broth, and said: "We have everything else in Tuoyunbao now, but our training intensity is increasing day by day, and we need to let the soldiers eat more meat.
And based on time, sudden changes will occur."
It will take another three days for Qi Shi's large army of soldiers and horses to reach the other side of the Zhenzhu River.
We still have enough time to bring these captures back.
Wei Meng, after you have eaten and drank enough, find thirty experienced soldiers to drive all these livestock back to Tuoyun Fort.
Please ask the Lord of the fort to send someone to take care of them.
In the future, our We rely on these livestock for meat, Zheng San, you are responsible for counting all the other things seized."
Both of them responded at the same time: "No":
