Chapter 15: Sweeping

~9 min read 1,616 words

"Great, now even if I encounter an enemy at the Martial Master Mid-stage, I can go head-to-head with them!"

Chu Feng tightened his fist.

The surging power within his body made him feel incredibly excited.

However, he also knew that he could not get too happy too soon; he was still a significant distance away from the Innate Realm.

Therefore, he had to hurry and continue improving his strength.

After eating breakfast.

Chu Feng immediately ordered everyone to set out.

Since they were already deep in the heart of the Xiongnu territory, it would be a disservice to their visit if they didn't stir up some trouble for them.

Some time after Chu Feng led his troops away, Wulipu arrived late once again.

"Lord Wulipu, there are signs of an encampment here; it must have been those Wei Army soldiers!"

Upon hearing his subordinate's report, an enraged Wulipu slammed his fist into the ground.

"Damn it, a step too late again!"

Wulipu immediately mounted his horse, "Pass on my order: no one is to rest until we catch those Wei dog bastards!"

"Yes!"

Wulipu led his troops in pursuit once more.

This time, he was truly furious.

He swore to catch that departing Wei Army unit.

Meanwhile, Chu Feng, who was marching ahead, was completely unaware that a Xiongnu cavalry unit, acting like mad dogs, was following behind them.

After marching for about fifty li.

Two scouts galloped forward to report.

"Centurion, we have discovered a Xiongnu tribe ahead!"

"Oh?"

Chu Feng raised an eyebrow, "How many people are in their tribe?"

"Reporting to you, Lord, this is a small tribe with about three hundred people; the vast majority are the elderly, weak, women, and children, with very few adult males!"

After hearing the scout's report.

Chu Feng began to ponder whether or not to attack this Xiongnu tribe consisting only of the elderly, weak, women, and children.

As someone who had transmigrated here, he still maintained a certain level of conscience in his heart.

He was never hesitant to kill enemies on the battlefield.

But facing these defenseless elderly, weak, women, and children, Chu Feng was somewhat hesitant.

"Brother, why pity these fellows!"

Zhang He came to Chu Feng's side at this moment, "Even though they are elderly, weak, women, and children, the young ones can grow up, the women can bear children, and the old can prepare for their aggression."

"Only by wiping them out completely can we fully eliminate the scourge on the border!"

Reminded by Zhang He.

Chu Feng's mind instantly cleared.

"That's right, Zhang is correct; the existence of these fellows is an unstable factor that threatens the border of Great Wei."

"Once they gain power, the border of Great Wei will repeat the same mistakes!"

As a transmigrator.

Chu Feng naturally understood how much destruction these foreign tribes had once caused to the Central Plains.

Therefore, these fellows must not be spared.

"All troops, listen to my order: wipe out the Xiongnu tribe ahead; kill any male taller than a chariot wheel, and take everything that can be carried!"

"Yes!"

All the soldiers prepared for battle.

Chu Feng had the injured soldiers stay behind to look after the horses and supplies.

The rest of the men followed him to charge at the Xiongnu tribe.

The sky was cloudless.

A group of young Xiongnu children were playing on the grass.

An eighteen-year-old girl was busy by the stove, preparing to light a fire and cook.

"Little sister, where is Wuligu?"

A young man jumped off his horse to ask the woman.

"Wuligu led troops to the main camp to deliver supplies; brother, do you have business with Wuligu?"

"Nothing, just came to see you!"

The young man led his horse to the woman, "When you got married, brother was recovering from injuries and couldn't come to see you; you don't blame brother, do you?"

"How could I! Brother and Wuligu are both heroes who have achieved great things for the Xiongnu; how could I blame you!"

"Haha, my visit this time is actually to say goodbye; my injuries have healed, and I am preparing to head to the main camp to kill a few more Wei people!"

"Mm, good, brother, remember to get me some more Wei fabric; although those Wei people are trash, their craftsmanship is quite good!"

"No problem, in just a few days, our Xiongnu army will be able to breach Dingning of Great Wei..."

"Oh no, enemies are attacking!"

Before Wancang could finish his sentence.

His accompanying subordinates discovered a group of people with clothing completely different from theirs rapidly approaching from not far away.

Wancang took a close look and immediately cried out in alarm.

"Not good, it's a unit of the Wei people, everyone run!"

Wancang immediately ordered everyone in the tribe to leave here quickly.

Although they had several hundred people here, most were the old, weak, women, and children.

And he and his subordinates numbered only five people.

They simply could not withstand the charging Wei Army soldiers.

"Little sister, run!"

Wancang immediately gave up a horse to let his younger sister escape.

"Big brother!"

"Go quickly!"

After sending his younger sister away, Wancang immediately mounted a new warhorse and charged toward the Wei Army.

As a result, before he had charged very far, Wancang was pierced through the throat by a sharp arrow.

"Big brother!"

Watching her brother die, Wanli was instantly bathed in tears.

She had been cooking at home perfectly fine, who would have thought she would encounter the invasion of the Wei people.

She hated this group of Wei people to the core, wishing she could go and fight them to the death right now.

However, she also knew she was no match for them; she had to go and request reinforcements to eliminate this group of Wei people.

"Kill, leave not one alive!"

Zhang He charged into the tribe and raised his blade to hack.

His strength had already reached Martial Artist Mid-Stage, and now there was not a single Xiongnu who was his match.

After Chu Feng shot and killed Wancang with an arrow, his subordinates also died under his arrows as well.

At this moment, the Xiongnu tribe was in complete chaos.

Unarmed, they were simply no match for the Great Wei soldiers.

However, there were still a few hot-blooded fellows here.

They actually took out weapons, wanting to resist.

As a result, they all became wandering souls in the hands of the Great Wei soldiers.

During this time, Chu Feng also shot and killed a Xiongnu.

As a result, what made Chu Feng feel surprised was that his Killing Points actually did not increase.

"What is the situation?"

Chu Feng was somewhat astonished by this situation.

Subsequently, he drew his bow again and shot and killed a resisting Xiongnu.

The result was still the same, with no increase in points whatsoever.

"It seems these people are different from the soldiers on the battlefield; they simply do not possess any value!"

Chu Feng did not continue to shoot and kill targets.

Anyway, killing them was useless.

After all those who resisted fiercely were killed off.

The rest of the people one after another put down the tools in their hands and raised their hands to surrender.

"My lord, what should be done with these people who have surrendered?"

A soldier pointed at these people who had given up resistance.

"Brother, the barbarians fear power but do not fear virtue; keeping them remains a future disaster!"

Zhang He was afraid that Chu Feng would be unable to take action because of a soft heart.

Although Chu Feng's performance on the battlefield was very fierce, his background was, after all, that of a scholar.

A scholar might express hatred toward enemies on the battlefield, but toward the descendants of these barbarians, he would inevitably have a sense of compassion.

At this moment, everyone's gaze was focused on Chu Feng.

Everyone was waiting for him to issue an order.

Chu Feng swept a glance at the Xiongnu present.

They were all looking at him with fearful expressions.

Only those children who were still young were staring at him one by one with murderous intent.

And their mothers were shielding them tightly, afraid they would be targeted by the Wei Army.

"I have just said it: males taller than a wheel are to be killed, those who resist are to be killed; take away everything that can be taken, and burn everything that cannot be taken!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers who received the order immediately set about preparing.

Those who held hatred for the Wei Army and were as tall as a wheel were one by one dragged out and executed on the spot.

Everything of value within the tribe.

Whether it was grain, treasures, or anything else, it was all swept clean.

Even the cattle and sheep they raised were slaughtered, butchered, and taken away.

As for the rest that could not be taken, it was all burned to nothing by a fire.

Watching their own belongings being burned away.

Every surviving Xiongnu wept bitterly while holding their heads.

Without grain, without cattle and sheep, and even the place they lived had been burned to the ground by a fire.

Facing the coming winter, they had only a dead end ahead.

The scene shifted.

Having escaped the tribe, Wanli ran madly in one direction.

Right now, the only way to save their tribe was to go elsewhere and bring back reinforcements.

After she had run for a distance, she saw a cloud of dust rising ahead of her.

Seeing this scene.

A very bad premonition suddenly popped into Wanli's heart.
