My only wish is that after I die, General, you will place my grave facing south, so that I may forever watch over my homeland….
Hearing their last words, even Dong Zhuo, a usually forthright man from Xiliang, couldn't help but shed tears. The steward beside him also turned his head away, a tear sliding down his cheek.
With bloodshot eyes, Dong Zhuo looked at his two subordinates and solemnly said, "You may rest here for now. One day, I will definitely come back and take you back!"
"General... I don't want to die in agony like this, please... please help us, okay... please?"
"good.....!"
Dong Zhuo nodded, his voice hoarse, and then slowly placed his trembling hands on the necks of the two men.
"Thank you... thank you, General!"
Feeling Dong Zhuo's warm hand, the two soldiers closed their eyes and smiled.
"Brother, rest in peace...!"
After saying this, Dong Zhuo closed his eyes, turned his head away, and then suddenly exerted force with both hands.
"Snap!"
Two soft cracking sounds were heard, and two lines of tears involuntarily slid down Dong Zhuo's cheeks.
Gently wiping the corner of his eye, Dong Zhuo turned around and looked at the person in charge beside him.
"Go, pick two pretty women to accompany these two brothers on their journey!"
"promise!"
Soon, two Xiongnu women were brought in. Dong Zhuo stepped forward, glanced at them, and then nodded.
“I have never killed a woman, but my two brothers have followed me for many years and have always been single, so I cannot let them go with regrets.”
After saying this, Dong Zhuo, with a ruthless expression, reached out his hands and placed them around the necks of the two women, ending their lives in the same way.
"Bury them together, without erecting a monument or leaving any trace, lest the Xiongnu retaliate."
"promise!"
Dong Zhuo came outside the tent and called over a guard, saying, "Tell the brothers to rest here tonight, and those women will be their reward."
"Yes, General."
The guard, his face beaming with joy, was about to turn and leave.
"etc!"
"General?"
"Tell them to be more restrained. Anyone who gets weak in the knees and can't mount the horse shouldn't blame me for being impolite!"
"Don't worry, General!!"
"Okay! Go ahead."
As night fell, after clearing the tribe out of the area, the Xiliang cavalry began their revelry. The cries of women mingled with the wild laughter of men, filling the entire camp.
The military commander, being very sensible, brought a beautiful Xiongnu woman into Dong Zhuo's tent.
"General, this is something I specially selected for you. What do you think?"
"Good, stay!"
Seeing that the woman looked quite nice, Dong Zhuo nodded in satisfaction.
"Please enjoy your meal. I'll take my leave now!"
The person in charge smiled obsequiously and then quickly walked out of the tent.
Dong Zhuo stood up and walked to the woman, reaching out to lift her chin. He saw fear and obedience in her eyes.
A sinister smile appeared on Dong Zhuo's face. He then reached out and roughly tore off the woman's clothes before pouncing on her...!
The next morning, after dealing with all the remaining Xiongnu people, Dong Zhuo led his men away and headed towards his next target.
Soon, when several escaped Southern Xiongnu returned to their tribe with reinforcements, the tragic state of the tribe enraged everyone.
