Can I get to the other side?
Chapter 419 Zhang He's vicious plan to wipe out the entire family
"Shut up!"
Seeing the eldest prince still wailing, Zhang He kicked him and inserted the bloody Mo Dao next to his head.
The eldest prince was so frightened that he was silent. Even though the severe pain from his lower body made him sweat and tremble, he dared not scream again.
Zhang He snorted coldly, then stepped on the eldest prince's face and asked: "I ask you, where is Ma Chao now?"
Among the Qiang nobles, the eldest prince has the highest status and is most likely to pry out useful information from him.
After hearing Zhang He's words, the eldest prince immediately understood that the target of this group of Han troops was Ma Chao.
So he endured the pain and said: "Ma Chao is not in our court. He passed by the court a month ago and went to Shangjun after asking for a batch of supplies."
"Not long ago, he sent an invitation to the leaders of the tribes in the court to go to Shangjun for discussion. My father also went there."
"Shangjun?"
Hearing this news from the eldest prince, Zhang He frowned tightly, because Shangjun was located deep in the Qiang land, deeper than the court.
If he led the Modao Army there, the supplies would not be able to keep up, and if there was any accident, there would be no support.
"General, I can lead you, but don't kill me. My father will use a lot of gold, silver, cattle and sheep to redeem my life!"
The eldest prince kept begging Zhang He.
Although he had lost his dignity as a man after being castrated, he would rather live in shame than die.
Zhang He looked at the eldest prince with contempt, kicked him unconscious, and then ordered many Modao soldiers: "Stop the bleeding, capture them all and take them back to Yecheng!"
It is more valuable to keep these people than to kill them.
The deputy general beside him couldn't help asking: "General, are we not going to continue to pursue the rebels?"
"We can't go, it's too far."
Zhang He shook his head and sighed slightly: "There are many rebels, and the risk of going deep into Qiang is too great. I can't take the soldiers to take this risk."
"This time, we have broken the Qiang court and found the whereabouts of Ma Chao, which is enough."
Although Zhang He wanted to kill Ma Chao, he also knew that the Modao Army was not good at long-distance raids. If the Modao Army was really lost in Qiang because of his recklessness, how could he go back to see the emperor?
But he had one more thing to do before leaving.
Zhang He looked down at the bodies of the Han women who had committed suicide on the ground, and said with murderous intent: "Pass on my military order, kill everyone in the royal court, not a single one will be left alive!"
"Let them also feel the pain suffered by the people of our great Han Dynasty!"
The deputy general clasped his fists heavily and turned to retreat.
...
As Zhang He's order was issued, the Modao Army launched a bloody massacre in the Qiang people's royal court.
Although there were still many soldiers in the Qiang people's royal court, the Modao Army was so strong that it ranked first even among all the military branches of the Han Dynasty. The Qiang cavalry was no match for them, let alone ordinary soldiers.
The Modao Army, armed to the teeth, was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep in the Qiang people's royal court. No one could stop their butcher knives from falling!
The massacre lasted from noon to dusk, and the Qiang people's royal court was already a miserable scene.
Corpses were everywhere, blood flowed like a river - it was the kind that really meant it.
The blood from many corpses gathered together to form a winding stream, and a pool of blood formed in the low-lying area.
The entire Qiang people's royal court had been slaughtered.
Zhang He patrolled the royal court, and soon he came to the center of the royal court, where a group of captives gathered.
After seeing Zhang He coming, the deputy general came forward to report to him: "General, the entire royal court has been slaughtered according to your orders."
"But there are still some women and children left, how should we deal with them?"
Hearing this, Zhang He looked up at the deputy general, frowning tightly, and his eyes were full of doubts.
"Killed them all? What are you talking about?"
Zhang He pointed at the women and children and said: "Since you said that they have all been killed, how could there be women and children left?"
"My order to you is to leave no one in the royal court, don't you understand what this means?"
After the voice fell, the deputy general was suddenly horrified.
The meaning of Zhang He's words was very simple.
Except for the Qiang nobles who were captured before, all other Qiang people, even women and children, were killed without a single one!
Kill them all!
The eldest prince had already woken up from his coma. He watched the Modao Army slaughtering people in the royal court with his own eyes, and thought that this was the limit.
But when he heard that Zhang He actually ordered to attack women and children, he couldn't help but look at Zhang He in horror and anger, and cursed in a trembling voice: "Devil! You are a devil!"
"You even don't let go of children and women, you are a complete devil!"
Even when the Qiang tribes fought each other.
They rarely killed children and women.
But Zhang He actually ordered to kill all women and children, leaving no one alive!
This is no longer cruel.
This is simply cold and ruthless!
Even the deputy general hesitated and said, "General, killing women and children is too..."
"Are you trying to say that I am too cruel?"
Zhang He glanced at the deputy general and sneered, "Take a good look at the women and children you want to spare!"
The deputy general subconsciously looked over when he heard this.
There are thousands of women and children captured here. Although they have fear on their faces, most of them have deep-seated hatred and malice in their eyes!
Hate for these mass murderers!
Even though the lieutenant was an eight-foot-tall warrior with the strength to fight a tiger, he couldn't help but feel his heart tremble after seeing hundreds of pairs of eyes full of hatred.
"The Han people and the Qiang people have been fighting each other for hundreds of years. They have always been a scourge on the border of the Han people. I don't know how many people have been poisoned by them."
"Their nature is like that of wolves."
"If you don't kill them today, my Han people will die under their swords in the future. Do you think he will be kind to our Han people?"
Zhang He's voice was bone-chilling, extremely cold.
"You must remove the roots! Now that you have chosen to attack them, any mercy is unnecessary!"
"What's more, they didn't let those children go when they went to my Han border to massacre the villages! So why should I, the general, give this group of beasts so-called mercy?"
"Even if I am scolded by the civil servants in the court and rebuked by His Majesty, I will not leave any trouble behind!"
Zhang He's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.
After seeing the tragic situation in the Han Women's Pavilion and the Colosseum, he only had the purest murderous intention towards the Qiang people. He only regretted that he did not bring more people here this time, so that many Qiang people escaped.
"If you can't do it, then I will!"
Seeing that the deputy general was still stunned, Zhang He drew his knife and walked towards the captured women and children.
The surrounding Mo Dao soldiers also drew their swords one after another.
Seeing this, the deputy no longer hesitated and drew his sword to follow.
Not long after, except for the eldest prince and other Qiang nobles, no other prisoners were left alive.
After doing all this, the deputy general asked Zhang He: "General, should we retreat now?"
"Many of the Qiang people in the royal court have fled. They will definitely go to the county to report the news. It would be bad if Ma Chao and those Qiang leaders lead their troops."
The Qiang royal court had a huge population.
Although the Mo Dao Army can slaughter them wantonly, it is impossible to kill them all. After all, there are only 5,000 people, not to mention some were lost in the battle.
Without even thinking about it, those who escaped would definitely go to Shangjun for help.
"If we retreat now, aren't we here in vain?"
Zhang He had no intention of retreating immediately, and said with deep eyes: "It is not enough to simply destroy the Qiang royal court, I will make them suffer to the point of pain!"
The deputy general heard this and asked in confusion: "What else does the general plan to do?"
They have already killed everyone in the royal court, what else can they do to make the Qiang people hurt to the core of their bones?
"It's very simple. Burn the land and pollute the water."
Zhang He said without hesitation, with cold eyes, "The Qiang people are the same as the Huns and Wuhuan people. Their foundation lies in animal husbandry."
The error-free version is being read! 6=9+Book_Bar debuts this novel.
"Herding cattle and sheep is something that every Qiang tribe does, and cattle and sheep are also the resources they rely on for survival."
"The most fertile place in the Royal Court area will only need to be turned into scorched earth so that they will no longer be able to graze for a long time!"
"In addition, all the cattle and sheep were brought back, and those that could not be taken away were slaughtered and thrown together with their bodies at major water sources to pollute the water sources and leave them with no water to drink!"
After Zhang He finished explaining his plan, everyone was completely shocked by him.
Because this method is too cruel,
The Qiang people are nomadic, so it's okay to slaughter all their cattle and sheep; but burning the land and polluting the water sources is a truly devastating blow!
Cattle and sheep are the most precious resources of the Qiang people. Their furs can be used to make clothes to keep out the cold, their meat can be eaten, their bones can be made into weapons, and their milk can be drunk...
Once they are unable to graze, they will lose the precious resource of cattle and sheep. So where will the Qiang people go in the future?
They killed cattle and sheep, burned mountains and grasslands, and polluted water sources everywhere on the grasslands.
Then the number of Qiang people killed this winter will be more than ten times the number of people killed by Modao Army!
"Crazy! You crazy!"
"You can't do this! Stop it!"
"I will definitely kill you!"
The captured Qiang nobles reacted greatly when they heard Zhang He's plan, and yelled at Zhang He crazily.
The Qiang people still have a relatively deep concept of race.
The eldest prince also suppressed his fear and cursed: "How dare you do this! Aren't you afraid of attracting crazy revenge from our Qiang people against your Han country!"
"You are starting a war!"
Zhang He did this to put the entire Qiang people to death and force them to a dead end, which was even more terrifying than killing them!
From now on, the two sides will fight to the death!
However, all the Modao soldiers were very excited when they heard this memory. The Han people did not have a good impression of the Qiang people and wished to drive them all away.
What Zhang He did was not only break the Qiang people's backbones?
Even the ashes were raised for them!
After the deputy general reacted, he said excitedly: "General, I will lead people to take action right now!"
After saying that, amid the crazy yelling, pleading and desperate eyes of the Qiang people, they left directly with the Modao soldiers.
…
After Zhang He deployed his plan, he first sent people to gather all the living people in the royal court, and took the Qiang prisoners back to Yecheng.
After all, there are still many Han people in the royal court. The people are moving slowly, so they must leave first, otherwise Ma Chao and the Qiang army who may get the news may catch up.
And he led the remaining Mo Dao army to complete the plan of exterminating the whole family.
Burn the land and pollute the water source!
The soldiers of the Mo Dao army set fire everywhere on the grassland and the mountain, and at the same time took away all the food, cattle, sheep and livestock, etc., and burned all the things that could not be taken away to ashes!
Although it is a pity, there is nothing we can do.
This time, there are only 5,000 people who came here to raid the royal court. It is definitely unrealistic to take them all away, so they can only burn them according to the view that they can't take them away and can't leave them to the Qiang people.
Not only that, the major freshwater lakes and water sources have also become places for corpses to be thrown. Zhang He asked people to throw all the corpses into the major water sources.
Looking around, there are corpses floating on the freshwater lake, and even the lake water is dyed red with blood.
It only takes a few days for the water in these freshwater lakes to be completely polluted, and drinking it will cause epidemics.
Zhang He did not even let go of the flowing water source.
He had people throw corpses at the source, turning the water source into plague water; the big grass principle was burning fiercely, and the billowing black smoke went straight to the sky.
It took nearly three days to do these things.
"It's almost done. The Qiang people should have received the news. It's time to leave here."
Zhang He nodded at the Qiang people's royal court in front of him.
The Qiang people's royal court now can no longer be called a royal court. It's just a deserted place with corpses all over the ground.
But this is exactly what Zhang He wanted.
He suddenly looked forward to what the scene would be like when the group of Qiang people returned to the royal court.
Thinking of this, Zhang He couldn't help grinning, waving his hand and ordering: "Burn this place!"
"Yes!"
The deputy general took the order, and then took out bows and arrows with many Modao soldiers, lit fire arrows, and fired a volley at the Qiang people's royal court.
Arrows rained down.
The royal court, which was covered with kerosene, turned into a sea of fire in an instant.
He took a last look at the Qiang royal court.
Zhang He turned his horse around and left here directly without any nostalgia.
Many Mo Dao soldiers followed closely behind him.
Behind them was the grassland that had turned into a scorched earth, and the Qiang royal court that had turned into a sea of fire.
From then on, the Qiang royal court would no longer exist.
…
While Zhang He was ravaging the Qiang royal court, the Qiang people who had escaped also rushed all the way to Shangjun without stopping.
A Qiang warrior had been riding for several days, and at this moment his physical strength was almost at its limit.
"We must tell the leader quickly, otherwise the royal court will really be finished!"
The Qiang warrior had chapped lips and was extremely tired.
He didn't know the current situation of the Qiang royal court, and he only wanted to pass on the news!
After climbing onto the horse with great effort, he dragged his extremely exhausted body and galloped towards Shangjun in the night.
