Dewey massacred the Chenjiagou villagers in order to force Xu Xian, Chen Changxing and others to come out. Of course, this decision needed to be communicated.
I don't know where Xu Xian and Chen Changxing are, and I can't send someone to notify them. The only way is to have their decisions engraved all over Mount Taiyi.
After a few days of busy work, with Chenjiagou as the center, there were carvings left by Du Jiajun everywhere.
Before Xu Xian and Chen Changxing arrived, they saw smoke blazing in three places about twenty miles away from Chenjiagou.
Dewey was not sure whether Xu Xian and Chen Changxing lit up the smoke in these three places.
He felt that it was necessary to send someone over to find out. If they really encountered Xu Xian and Chen Changxing, they could easily get rid of them.
Dewey sent out three teams of thirty men each, ten of whom were equipped with bows.
With this combination, and not in a cave, Dewey is very confident that he can get rid of Xu Xian and Chen Changxing whenever he encounters them.
"It's best to keep them alive if possible. I don't want them to die too quickly."
In order to avenge his son, Dewey wanted to execute Xu Xian and Chen Changxing late.
Although the mountain road was rugged and difficult, Dewey estimated that there would be results in the evening, either Xu Xian and Chen Changxing who were still breathing, or the heads of Xu Xian and Chen Changxing.
However, until the next morning, there was no response from the three teams sent out.
Although there are only thirty people in each team, because of the presence of archers, they still have a chance to win even if they face hundreds of bandits and bandits.
However, the ninety people from the third team just disappeared out of thin air, and no one came back to report the news.
Dewey was as anxious as an ant in a hot pot, but he did not dare to send more people over. A wrong decision resulted in the loss of nearly a hundred people, leaving only more than 200 people left. There were only 40 people in the Zhugong camp.
By noon, the people sent out had not returned yet, and the smoke was lit again in the same place. It was still a familiar place, and the smoke was still billowing.
The other party was obviously provoking, and Dewey became furious and shouted:
"If you dare to tease me, I will let you die without a burial place."
Sending more people there will definitely weaken your own strength.
Dewey thought carefully and decided to leave some people to guard Chenjiagou and personally lead others to deal with the enemy.
Dewey left 60 people to guard Chenjiagou, including ten archers.
As for the Chenjiagou Self-Defense Force, except for the Chenjiagou Self-Defense Force who was tied up in the sun and was dying, the others were old, weak, women and children, and sixty people were enough to deal with them.
Dewey only had more than a hundred people around him, and there were only thirty archers. In order to avoid being defeated one by one, he did not divide his troops again, and led more than a hundred people towards the smoke in the middle.
At this moment, Dewey actually had no idea, but he had no choice but to live with his enemies.
If Xu Xian and Chen Changxing were not cut into pieces, he would have no face in the world.
"Everyone, be careful not to fall into an ambush by the enemy."
The group of people were a bit indifferent, occasionally frightening a pheasant or a rabbit to death.
Dewey was so frightened that he was sweating all over, and his men were also infected by this fearful emotion. Their eyes were wandering, and they could not hide the panic in their eyes.
Master Sun noticed something unusual about the team, approached Dewey, and whispered:
"Everyone's morale is low. If we encounter the enemy, we may not be able to form an effective defense. Let's stop and take a rest and hold a mobilization meeting to boost our morale."
Master Sun didn't need to remind him, Dewey had already discovered that the team was so lifeless that even he was frightened. Such a team was really not suitable for marching and fighting.
Dewey said:
"Everyone, stop and rest on the spot. There will be a hunting competition tomorrow. Those who perform well will be promoted exceptionally."
Everyone looked at Dewey with eyes like dead fish. There was no surprise in their eyes, only cowardice, helplessness, and panic.
Dewey knew that the disappearance of the three teams and the performance of Xu Xian and Chen Changxing in the cave had caused an invisible shock to everyone.
If there is no way to alleviate this emotion, everyone will be filled with fear. When the two sides meet, their own side will collapse directly, unable to face the enemy at all, and lose.
Hunting alone will certainly not alleviate this feeling.
Only blood can relieve this emotion.
Dewey's eyes were as cold as frost, with a bloodthirsty light shining in his eyes, and he said coldly:
"When I return to Chenjiagou tomorrow, I will massacre the village and make it bleed like a river."
Massacring a village can boost morale. When some people heard that a village was going to be massacred, a bloodthirsty light flashed in their eyes, as if they were crazy.
It's been too depressing recently. Killing the defenseless old, weak, women and children, even if it doesn't relieve the mood, can satisfy everyone's perverted idea of killing one to get enough money and killing two to make a profit.
Even if he died, someone would finally support him, and everyone's mood was already a bit hysterical.
There is no hope, death will come at any time, but there is nothing we can do.
There were originally more than 400 people who came out together, but the number of people continued to decrease inexplicably during the process, and not even a shadow of the enemy was seen.
The invisible enemies are the most terrifying. If everyone sees how their companions died and understands the true strength of Xu Xian and Chen Changxing, they will feel nothing.
The less you understand the strength of your enemy, the more you will think wildly and scare yourself.
Not to mention the people below, even Dewey himself was infected by this atmosphere and felt inexplicable fear in his heart, as if death would come at any time.
At night, in the boundless darkness, this terrifying atmosphere is the easiest to grasp. Only by hugging each other to keep warm can this atmosphere be relieved.
Light a fire in the ditch, drink a lot of wine, and eat meat from a big bowl to relieve the fear caused by the dark night. When the sun rises, they return to Chenjiagou Tu Village to boost their morale.
There were sounds of guessing, roars, and curses, and everyone temporarily forgot their fear.
After drinking too much, Dewey transformed into Xianglin's wife and recounted her son's past events over and over again.
"I should have stayed in the county government in the first place. With me here, my son would not have been killed by Chen San."
Dewey burst into tears and roared at the top of his lungs:
"Chen San, I must cut your body into pieces, peel off your skin, remove your bones, drink your blood, and eat your flesh to relieve the hatred in my heart.
…”
Led by Dewey, those who had lost their loved ones also began to curse. For a while, the atmosphere became more depressing, making everyone feel breathless, as if death would come at any time.
"Master, something serious has happened."
In this depressing atmosphere, a voice added fuel to the flames in time, pushing this depressing atmosphere to a climax. It only needed to be detonated, and it would immediately spread and cause the camp to explode.
"Who dares to disturb the morale of our military?"
Dewey also noticed something was wrong in the atmosphere and roared:
"Are you looking for death?"
After a commotion, a bloody figure was pushed over. Seeing Dewey, he fell to his knees and cried:
"The owner of the village, it's me, Lao Zhou."
Of course Dewey knew Lao Zhou, and the people he left in Chenjiagou were commanded by Lao Zhou.
With Lao Zhou in such a mess, something must have happened in Chenjiagou.
Dewey grabbed Lao Zhou's shoulders and asked in a deep voice:
"Old Zhou, what happened?"
"Kill!..."
"Pu!..."
Without waiting for Lao Zhou to answer, the shouts of killing rang out, the sound of arrows piercing the air, the atmosphere of terror was finally detonated, the camp was blown up, and the Du family troops fled in all directions.
