Chapter 393: Hometown is in front of me
"Yes!"
The cavalrymen behind him immediately bowed and accepted the order, and began to measure the heights of the children with a few people.
At the same time, Song Yuan has led his other subordinates to live and cook in the tribe.
According to Song Yuan's plan, when Wei Da and others behind him arrived, they should be able to have a hot meal.
In the midst of busyness, the casualties were finally counted.
Although Song Yuan had repeatedly reminded them to be careful when dealing with these herdsmen, two more seriously injured people still appeared.
Fortunately, with the famous doctor Jinlian by their side, and the corresponding medicinal herbs in the tribe, the wounded's condition was quickly brought under control.
Half an hour later, when Jinlian finished everything, the sound of horse hooves suddenly came from outside the tribe.
Wei Da and others were seen carrying large and small bags, followed by several seriously injured soldiers, and finally succeeded in meeting up with Song Yuan's men!
After a long period of bumpy ride, the conditions of the seriously injured became more serious.
However, with the medicinal materials, Song Yuan immediately gave orders and lifted everyone off the horses.
Send it to Jinlian so that she can receive immediate medical treatment.
Immediately afterwards, Song Yuan ordered preparations to be made within the tribe.
After being busy for a long time, everyone finally relaxed and divided the work clearly according to their responsibilities.
After dinner, everyone used the grass in the tribe to feed the war horses that had worked hard for two whole days.
In the tribe, the food collected is limited, but there is no shortage of fodder.
While everyone was busy, Song Yuan finally took a break and came to the side alone, frowning and thinking about his next plan.
But just at this moment, a tall figure suddenly came up to Song Yuan and spoke in a meaningful tone.
"You said before that you wouldn't rebel, and I was a little skeptical, but now I believe it!"
Wei Da had a stern face and nodded at Song Yuan.
Hearing such an evaluation, Song Yuan couldn't help but look puzzled: "Why do you say that?"
Wei Da pouted angrily at the person behind him. Song Yuan did not treat the remaining elderly people and children badly. He was now distributing the leftover food to them.
"Even when dealing with barbarians, you maintain your bottom line and don't kill the elderly, the weak, women, and children. This alone is enough to prove that you have a conscience!"
"If you treat your enemies this way, how can you bear to do this to your compatriots? But I hope that everything you are doing now is not a disguise, otherwise, the people of Daqin will suffer again!"
Wei Da psychologically agreed with Song Yuan's previous decision.
The battlefield is supreme, and he also emphasizes killing the enemy first, but even when facing the enemy, he must maintain his bottom line and must maintain a one-sided kindness.
It doesn't mean that we should kill all those who are not of our race.
At least, leave the other party a glimmer of hope!
Otherwise, if you transform into a demon who kills without blinking an eye, not sparing even the young or the old, what is the difference between you and a ruthless executioner?
Throughout history, even when two countries were at war, only a few of them would massacre the other side's cities after occupying them.
It’s because everyone has always adhered to this bottom line!
War is ruthless, but it does not mean that people will lose their humanity!
After all, we still have to be kind-hearted, at least we shouldn't kill them all!
"I should be thankful that you think of me this way, but in my opinion, if I kill these people, I'm afraid I'll lose even my humanity!"
"Also, I hope that no matter how far the relationship between the barbarians and the Qin Dynasty progresses, there will always be a bottom line between them. As long as this step is not taken, at least one ethnic group will never be extinct!"
Song Yuan smiled, nodded, and explained his motives.
However, he knew in his heart that such an idea might be a little too naive. At least, if it were General Wei, this guy might not abide by it!
However, Song Yuan had no time to care about others, the only person he could take care of was himself!
At least I can do these things. Even if my behavior can infect one person, it will be good in the end.
"Brothers!"
Realizing Song Yuan's principles, Wei Da immediately stepped forward, stretched out his hand and patted Song Yuan on the shoulder.
"It's a good thing for people to have a bottom line. At least I hope you will always be a person with a bottom line!"
Noticing Wei Da's agreement, Song Yuan nodded and immediately changed the subject, "Now is not the time for sentimentality. Let me ask you first, when you left the border town, did the pursuers catch up with you?"
Faced with such a topic, Wei Da's expression finally became much more serious, and he immediately started to explain.
"When I left the border town, I left a few people behind me. According to their intelligence, the barbarians have already settled in the border town and should be setting up camp there tonight!"
"However, we have already plundered all the supplies in the border town. I'm afraid they won't be able to fill their stomachs and will have to starve!"
"Even if they have the heart to kill their war horses to satisfy their hunger, at least those horses will be completely exhausted by tomorrow morning!"
For omnivores like humans, even the horses that they once fought alongside are enough to serve as food.
But in comparison, it becomes more difficult for those war horses to replenish their physical strength.
Song Yuan had previously specifically ordered people to burn all the woods outside the border town. Without hay to feed the war horses, their physical strength would be exhausted in just one night!
In this case, if you want to catch up with everyone by relying solely on the two legs of the pursuers behind you, it is simply a pipe dream. At least in the short term, you don’t have to worry about the existence of those pursuers.
"it is good!"
Hearing this outcome, Song Yuan shouted with a hint of joy, then put on a serious look and gave Wei Da instructions.
"Even though the chances of those pursuers catching up are slim, we still have to prevent any accidents. You'll be in charge of arranging the guards at night, and you can't let your guard down at any cost!"
"What if those pursuers abandon their horses and attack on foot at night? We'll be in big trouble then!"
Song Yuan was cautious. Even though he had the upper hand, he did not dare to act rashly and patiently gave instructions.
Faced with such worries, Wei Da's expression was quite disdainful: "Brother, let me tell you, your worries are completely unnecessary!"
"Let's not even talk about how much energy it would take for those people to come here on foot. Just the freezing temperatures alone mean they might not be able to endure it!"
"The past was the past, and the present is the present. Don't forget where we are now!"
Song Yuan hurriedly explained, hoping to change Wei Da's mindset: "We are now at the edge of the pasture. One step further and we will be at the homeland of those barbarians. Their determination to protect their loved ones must be far greater than we imagine!"
"After all, at this moment, a sneak attack at night might be their only chance!"
