The Shu army was defeated in Wuyang, and they were defeated miserably. Of the 100,000-strong army, only 30,000 to 40,000 people escaped in the end, and about 30,000 were killed or injured. The remaining 30,000 to 40,000 people all joined the Han army.
of prisoners.
The Han army's military tent. Liu Shang strode in from outside. Looking at Wu Han, who was shirtless and wearing only a robe, he took a few steps forward and asked with concern: "How is Da Sima injured?"
"
Wu Han looked back at the wound on his lower back, waved his hand and said, "The medical officer has already taken care of it, it's okay!"
"Alas! Da Sima was struck by a poisonous arrow!" Liu Shang sighed to himself with lingering fear.
Wu Han raised the corners of his mouth, smiled calmly, and said proudly: "It's just a poisonous arrow, what can you do to me?"
It was obviously a medical officer who detoxified you, and he acted as if he was immune to all poisons. Liu Shang shook his head in disbelief, handed a bamboo slip to Wu Han, and said: "This is the list compiled by the late General Sima.
!”
Seeing Wu Han opening the bamboo slips, Liu Shang explained: "Among the prisoners, the names of generals above the rank of captain are all here!"
Wu Han read it from beginning to end, then frowned, threw the bamboo slips on the table, and asked: "Ah Shang, why are there no names of the two thieves Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing?"
Liu Shang scratched his cheek and said ambiguously: "Maybe... maybe he ran away while he was in trouble?"
"Impossible! There are only a few enemy troops surrounded by our army who have escaped. Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing's goal is so big. How can they run away silently? Can our soldiers not be aware of it?" Wu Han said a series of
's question.
"Then...what does Da Sima mean?"
"If I guess correctly, the two thieves Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing must be among the prisoners!"
"It shouldn't be!" Liu Shang picked up the bamboo slips, looked at it briefly, and said, "The names of all generals above the rank of captain are here!"
"These two ghosts are probably disguised as ordinary soldiers!"
Liu Shang's face darkened and he said, "Da Sima, I'm going to try it again right now!"
"It doesn't have to be so troublesome!" Wu Han tapped the bamboo slip in Liu Shang's hand with his fingertips and said, "Bring all the people on this list outside the Chinese military tent and go now!"
"Here!" Liu Shang agreed, turned around and walked out of the Chinese military tent.
Not long after, there was the sound of rumbling footsteps outside. Wu Han asked someone to lift up the curtain of the central military tent. He raised his eyes and looked outside. Well, there must have been hundreds of prisoners of the Shu army who were escorted over.
.
Among these people, the one with the lowest military rank is also a captain.
Wu Han raised his head to Liu Shang who walked in and said: "Bring in two first!"
Liu Shang waved to the Han soldiers outside and said, "Bring two people in!"
Han soldiers escorted two Shu generals whose armor had been stripped off into the central military tent. The two men were like eggplants beaten by frost. After entering the tent, they both knelt on their knees with their heads hanging down, not daring to say a word.
Wu Han did not waste any unnecessary nonsense and said straight to the point: "Among the prisoners, there are no Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing, and their bodies were not found on the battlefield. Where are Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing now?"
The expressions of the two Shu soldiers changed at the same time, and they looked at each other. One of them said in a trembling voice: "The king and... and the prince-in-law... have all run away, right?"
Wu Han glanced at the two of them, waved his hand outwards, and said: "Pull them out and kill them!"
Without giving the two Shu generals a chance to say anything else, the Han soldiers on the side picked them up and dragged them out.
The two Shu generals were so frightened that they screamed: "Da Sima, please spare your life! Da Sima, please spare your life -"
The two were dragged outside the camp, not far away, and were forced to their knees by the Han army.
An executioner in a red robe stepped forward, raised his knife and dropped it. With two pops, two ferocious heads fell to the ground. The headless corpse was dragged by the soldiers to a carriage aside.
Liu Shang stretched his neck and saw two Shu generals being beheaded. He shrugged and looked outside.
He waved and said, "Bring two more in!"
Not long after, another school captain and a Shu general were brought into the Chinese military tent. Wu Han still didn't talk nonsense and asked directly: "Where are Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing?"
The two of them were so frightened that their faces turned paler than the other, their bodies were trembling and they were unable to say a word.
Regardless of whether they knew where Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing were, they couldn't tell. Their families were all in Chengdu. Once the emperor's brother and son-in-law were betrayed, none of their family members would be able to survive.
Wu Han didn't have time to wait for them to weigh the pros and cons. Seeing that both of them were silent, he waved his hand and said: "Behead!"
Following his order, these two men were also dragged out by the Han army. They were still at the same place where they were beheaded by swordsmen and axemen.
The dead are naturally dead, but they cause tremendous pressure on the living.
The captured Shu army generals outside could clearly see that four of them had been beheaded, and some of their heads were still gnawing at the soil when they fell to the ground. It was so shocking.
Wu Han said impatiently: "Ashang, stop calling two by two, it's too slow and troublesome, five people at a time!"
"Here!" Liu Shang agreed and said to the Han army outside: "Bring five in!"
Five prisoners, four of whom were captains and one was a general. Wu Han still had the same question: "Where are the two thieves Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing now?"
"..." None of the five people answered. After waiting for ten seconds and receiving no answer, Wu Han waved his hand and said, "Behead!"
For these Shu army generals, Wu Han had no intention of leaving alive. If it were not for fear of causing the emperor's dissatisfaction, he would not even have any intention of leaving alive the 30,000 to 40,000 Shu army soldiers who were captured.
Five people were taken away and their heads were chopped off.
There were already nine headless corpses on the carriage beside them. Scarlet blood dripped down along the cracks in the carriage board. The land under the carriage had been dyed into a large pool of red.
Not long after, five more people were brought in. One of them, a school captain in his thirties, had beads of sweat all over his head and face, and his mind was on the verge of collapse. He collapsed on his knees on the ground, and when Wu Han was about to say something,
When the word 'cut' was used, his body shook suddenly, he raised his head quickly, knelt forward, and screamed: "Report to Da Sima, I know... I know that the king... I know that Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing are both in disguise.
He became a soldier and is now... now among the prisoners..."
After hearing his words, the faces of the four prisoners present and the prisoners of war outside changed drastically, and they all looked at the captain.
There was no hatred in people's eyes. After all, they had surrendered themselves and they were not hard-core. They were horrified that the captain dared to testify about Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing. Did he not care about his family's life or death?
Wu Han squinted his eyes, looked at the captain, and asked slowly: "Seriously?"
"Everything the villain said is true! Villain... the villain can lead people to catch these two!"
"Yeah! Very good!" Wu Han nodded to Liu Shang standing aside.
Liu Shang understood, drew his sword from under his ribs, cut the ropes tied around the captain's body, then pulled him up from the ground, and said with a smile: "As long as you can find Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing, you will have made a great contribution!
"
Wu Han raised his head and shouted: "A Shang!" "The last general is here!" "The rest of them will all be beheaded, and their heads will be hung on the top of Wuyang City for public display!"
When Liu Shang heard this, he hesitated for a moment, and finally said, "Here!"
The prisoners outside heard Wu Han's order, and many of them immediately collapsed to the ground, and some even had their crotches wet.
There were also screams among them: "I want to report Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing. I can find them both..."
Liu Shang, who carried the captain and walked out of the central military tent, looked at the hundred and ten prisoners, laughed out loud, and said: "It's too late to find a way out now! What were you doing earlier?"
"
After speaking, he raised his head to the surrounding Han soldiers and said: "Da Sima has an order to behead all the thieves in public!"
These captured Shu army generals and lieutenants were all pulled aside and beheaded one by one. The dry land at the scene turned into mud, which was soaked in blood and water.
The school captain, together with Liu Shang and other Han troops, captured Gongsun Hui and Shi Xing, who were disguised as ordinary soldiers, among the many prisoners of the Shu army.
The two were brought into the Chinese military tent and when they saw Wu Han, the strength in their bodies seemed to have been drained instantly.
Gongsun Hui knelt on the ground, kowtowed forward repeatedly, and said in a trembling voice: "The guilty minister's brother proclaimed himself emperor in Chengdu, which is really treason and unforgivable. The guilty minister is willing to sever the brotherly relationship with Gongsun Shu, and the humble minister is willing to seek refuge with Gongsun Shu."
The Han Dynasty, assist the emperor, revitalize the Han industry..." As he spoke, Gongsun Hui started to cry loudly, crying so hard that his nose and tears flowed out.
Wu Han stood up, walked around the table, and limped up to Gongsun Hui. Although the injury was on his lower back, it was still a little difficult to walk.
Gongsun Hui first raised his head to look at Wu Han, and then immediately kowtowed forward again and again, choking and saying: "Every word of the guilty minister is true. I hope the great Sima will be more open-minded and spare the guilty minister..."
Before he could finish his words, Wu Han raised his leg and kicked Gongsun Hui hard on the chest. The latter groaned in pain and rolled backwards.
"Rat!" Wu Han glared at Gongsun Hui, who was lying on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, and said: "Gongsun Shu dominates the land of Shu and is also a hero of his generation. It is really sad and deplorable that he has such a shameless brother like you!"
As he spoke, he shouted loudly outside the camp: "Come here!"
Two Han soldiers walked into the central military tent and saluted Wu Han. Wu Han raised his lips to Gongsun Hui and shouted: "Drag him out and cut him in half!"
For other generals of the Shu army, Wu Han only beheaded them and gave them a happy life, but for Gongsun Hui, Wu Han sentenced him to death by cutting his waist in half, causing Gongsun Hui to die in agony and torture.
Gongsun Hui was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot and let out a heart-rending cry: "Da Sima, please forgive me, Da Sima, please spare my life..."
Wu Han didn't even look at him, and his eyes fell on Shi Xing again. Who Wu Han was, Shi Xing had a clear idea of who he was. If he fell into his hands, he would definitely be in trouble, and begging for mercy would be humiliating himself.
He glared at Wu Han angrily and yelled: "Wu Ziyan, I lost to you today. I admit it. If you are a man, give me a hard time..."
"Aren't you tough?" Wu Han raised the corners of his mouth, revealing his white teeth. He laughed loudly on his back. After laughing for a long time, he suddenly stopped his smile and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
"Here!" Two guards entered the account.
"Tug it out, the car will break!" Wu Han said with a serious face.
When Shi Xing heard this, his eyes turned red and he roared: "Wu Ziyan, you beast, you will die a good death, I will not let you go even if I am a ghost..." Before he could finish his words, he was pulled out of the camp by Han soldiers.
Wu Han walked to the door of the camp and said loudly: "Shi Xing, when I conquer Chengdu, I will destroy your entire Shi family and your entire Shi family!"
Shi Xing's yelling stopped abruptly. Looking at Wu Han standing at the door of the Zhongjun tent with a murderous look on his face, he couldn't help but shudder.
Don't think that Wu Han's words are meant to scare people, or that he is talking about being competitive. He is really capable of doing such a thing, if he really conquers Chengdu.
Whether Wu Han could conquer Chengdu, neither Gongsun Hui nor Shi Xing could see it anyway. Gongsun Hui was cut in half by Wu Han, and Shi Xing was even worse. He was punished by being quartered with five horses.
Among the generals of the Han army, Wu Han is a relatively unique one. He is both the god of war and the god of death of the Han army.
Liu Xiu had a gentle temperament, and most of the Han generals had similar temperaments to Liu Xiu. Only this Wu Da Sima was truly a murderous master.
