A roar like a wolf's cub resounded in the tent, and the border army general kicked the child with a dagger in his hand away.
The huge force caused the weapon in the child's hand to fall to the ground, and he fell heavily to the ground, roaring angrily at Xu Dalang and others.
Not to mention, he looked quite impressive. The soldiers surrounding him all took half a step back, wary of this little brat jumping on him again.
The remaining children were not as ferocious as this one. They were restrained by the border soldiers after only a few blows with their little fists. One of them was slapped and fainted in the corner of the tent.
The three women who were left behind glared at the border soldiers with bloodshot eyes, like she-wolves guarding their calves. Their glares sent shivers down one's spine.
"Stop!" Xu Dalang shouted.
The border army who had drawn his sword and was about to kill these Xianbei children put down his sword angrily and retreated.
As soon as they retreated, the women immediately rushed over, picked up the unconscious child, crowded together, and stared at Xu Dalang warily.
Xu Dalang turned coldly towards the only little boy who had not fainted yet and still had the strength to roar.
"May I have your name?"
The little boy clenched his cheeks, showing a strong sense of resistance.
Xu Dalang raised his eyebrows and asked again.
The boy thought to himself, even if you beat me to death, I won’t tell you!
But his mouth refused to obey, and he suddenly said: "My name is Daniel!"
"Ho!" The boy was so frightened by his reaction that he took a breath of cold air and looked at Xu Dalang who was slowly walking over in horror.
how so?
He clearly didn't want to say anything just now, but why did his body seem to be out of control?
Daniel had never encountered such a strange thing, but his intuition told him that this must be the work of the Central Plains man in front of him.
"Are you a wizard? Do you want to control me!" Daniel asked fearfully.
Xu Dalang looked at his scared face with interest. Just now he was holding a dagger and preparing for a sneak attack. At that time, he was very courageous.
Now when it comes to wizards, I am so scared. Human children are really interesting.
"What is the relationship between King Xianbei and you?" Xu Dalang asked.
Daniel didn't want to say anything, so he covered his mouth again.
But the three women next to him couldn't help but speak.
One of the women who looked similar to Daniel said: "He is the younger brother of the current king, the son of me and the old King Xianbei, an unknown person."
When little Daniel heard what the woman said, his expression was obviously startled, and he suppressed his injury and shouted in Xianbei dialect:
"I am not an unknown person! I am the king's child!"
Xu Dalang looked at the border general in confusion, "What is he talking about?"
Daniel suddenly switched to Xianbei language, and Xu Dalang was confused.
The general of the border army explained: "That woman should be the woman of the old Xianbei king. According to Xianbei's rules, when the previous king dies, the next king can inherit all his women."
"Daniel is the son of the previous king. His mother followed the current king. After all, this Daniel is also the half-brother of the current King of Xianbei."
The general of the border army looked at the younger child in the woman's arms, then looked at Daniel huddled alone on one side, clicked his tongue, and then continued to explain to Xu Dalang:
"It seems that Daniel's mother already had a new child with the current king, so she abandoned him. Moreover, his mother also felt that Daniel was responsible for all her misfortunes."
After Xu Dalang heard this, he just wanted to sigh, "I don't understand the human world."
But this is not important. What is important is that this woman's mouth is easy to open and her sense of resistance is also very weak.
Xu Dalang looked at Daniel's mother, and his mental power invaded again. Soon the woman told everything she knew about the whereabouts of King Xianbei.
It's a pity that it's all in vain. As an abandoned woman, what can she know?
"Take them all away." Xu Dalang ordered.
Xu Jiajun stepped forward and skillfully knocked out all three women, as well as Daniel who still wanted to resist, tied up their hands and feet, carried them to a carriage that was already filled with prisoners of war, and pulled them back together, waiting to be punished.
The border army general asked in surprise: "General Xu, won't you kill these prisoners?"
Xu Dalang glanced at him coldly, and the general of the border army suddenly remembered the mysterious method he had just inquired about and couldn't help but shudder.
"I have spoken too much in my humble position, but please forgive me, general." The frontier general looked horrified.
Xu Dalang was too lazy to pay attention to him, but thinking about how to use him next, he stepped back and explained with patience:
"We promised to surrender without killing, but we in the Xu family cannot be those who break our promises."
The frontier general was in the lead when he was startled by Xu Dalang who was falling back. Then he realized that Xu Dalang was explaining to himself and nodded quickly to show that he understood.
but......
"Those women and children didn't surrender?"
"Ha~" Xu Dalang smiled sarcastically, "That's all you have? Do you know whose hands the future of a country is in?"
Xu Dalang's voice was not loud, but all the border troops seemed to hear him and looked over in surprise.
Only Xu Dalang said seriously to everyone: "It's a woman and a child!"
"Without women and children, who will create a population? Do you have to rely on men to give birth to them alone? I don't think you can give birth to a single one!"
When the border troops heard this, they all looked dissatisfied.
Because in their previous ideological environment, men were the protagonists of the world. Why did women turn into such noble beings when Xu Jiajun told them?
"General Xu, what you said is wrong, right? Women can give birth to children, but they still have to rely on us men to fight the war!"
"That's right!" Many border troops agreed, very dissatisfied.
Xu Dalang knew that they would be dissatisfied, so he didn't bother to argue with them. He only asked:
"Do you want to marry your wife?!"
The unconvinced border soldiers changed their tone one after another, hesitating and saying: "Well, of course I want to, what man doesn't want a woman..."
Xu Dalang sneered: "Then I guarantee that if you are still like today, you will definitely not be able to marry a wife in the future!"
The three thousand border troops were dumbfounded, General Xu, let's discuss it, why did you still curse it?
Xu Dalang got on his horse, lightly shrugged his nose, smelled the residual smell of horse manure, and with a big wave of his hand, he led the cavalry towards the northeast.
The border troops could only put aside all their emotions for the time being, follow the general's footsteps, and continue to pursue the Xianbei King.
The Xu Jiajun looked at the frontier soldiers with pity who did not know the future situation, and smiled without saying a word.
The border troops didn't know that Xu's army would never do anything in vain.
These captives will be sent to the mines to maximize their value.
As for those children, especially Daniel, the Light Church will teach them how to be good children.
As for women, there are tons of young men in the city who can't find wives, for no other reason than that there are too few women to marry even if they want to.
Therefore, the soldiers of the Xu family army did not know what these bachelor brothers in the frontier army were thinking, and they were actually willing to kill the already rare women of the right age.
If it were them, they would only wish to bring more women back to their own territory to increase their chances of being single!
Also, their General Xu is not cursing the brothers in the border army.
Times have changed, and the women on Xu Jiajun's territory are no longer the women of the old times.
In short, once the border army brothers experience it for themselves, they will understand what General Xu said today.
