Chapter 210: The Trapped Tiger (Part II)
Xiao Tienu has been trapped for seven days, and although Xiao Ziqi was called "slippery" by Yang Yingqi, he still lost his hand this time. After all, Zong Han is Xiao Tienu's boss, and the boss wants to betray his subordinates, and his subordinates can prevent a thousand times, but they can't prevent the thousandth and first time! And this trap set by Zong Han is indeed ingenious: just when Xiao Tienu's march was extremely smooth, and he never imagined that the main force behind him would pull his feet, Wanyan Xiyin suddenly pulled his feet and did not come to join the division, causing Xiao Tienu to become a lone army.
Originally, there were only thirty or forty thousand Xia people gathered near this Muna Mountain, and it was not easy to trap Xiao Tienu's seven or eight thousand men and horses. But after Yan Xiyin leaked out the meeting place with Xiao Tienu, let the Xia people guess the route of Xiao Tienu's march, ambushed halfway, Xiao Ziqi suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and finally backed Wuliang Suhai, relying on the terrain of the left hill mountain and the right big lake to stabilize the defeat. But this place is good for defense, but it is also a dead place! The Xia people besieged it with heavy regiments at the three exits, and Xiao Tienu organized the elite to attack three times in vain! Now that the rations in the army have been exhausted, the day before yesterday they have begun to kill sick and injured horses. But when there were only 4,000 horses left, Xiao Tienu ordered a ban on killing horses - these 4,000 war horses were his last capital, and if he couldn't keep this, then even if he let the soldiers eat enough, he would never have the strength to break out of the encirclement.
"Sixth General," Meng Wu'er said, "When will you arrive after watching Yan Xiyin's house?" β
Wanyan Xiyin? Will he still come? Xiao Tienu didn't think so from the beginning, but he couldn't say it! Having reinforcements is also one of the psychological factors that make the soldiers hold on, if the soldiers know that the Chinese army in the rear has betrayed them, I am afraid that the morale will collapse immediately!
"Wait two more days." Xiao Tienu said that although he knew that there was little hope, he still had to endure it a little longer. Now the Xia army has no flaws at all, and the attempt to storm and rush out has been denied three times. Now Xiao Tienu needs a variable, he wants to save the last hope and the last strength to wait for change. This horse thief, who has been crawling on the frontier since childhood, knows the importance of patience!
"But, we're out of food!" Lu Yanlun's face was completely dry: "If you don't kill the horse, everyone will be hungry tonight!" β
Now Xiao Ziqi can't be hungry! If you are hungry, you will have no strength, and if you don't have the strength, you will not be able to hold on! But the horses can't be killed anymore!
"Don't worry, I'll have something to eat tonight." Xiao Tienu said: "You first go and check the wounded, sick, and people who came to our army after the Elechuan, and then show me the list." β
Lu Yanlun went as ordered, and before leaving, he suddenly turned around and said, "Sixth General, what are we working so hard for?" β
Xiao Tienu's heart was shocked, yes! Why do you want to? Was it an impulsive mistake to promise the boss in the first place? Since his "betrayal", the dilemma of the Han Department has been solved, the entangled knot in the north has been untied, and several brothers have received corresponding benefits, and the only one who has not received benefits and has fallen into a desperate situation is himself!
"Am I wrong? Is it wrong? Is it wrong? β
He looked at the sky from afar, and the sky in Monan was clean, so clean that he couldn't rub any scum! "I thought I would be able to protect myself, but who knew I was overestimating myself! I used to think that the boss would be trustworthy, but now I ...... Will the boss really keep his word? If I die this time, there is no need to mention anything; But if I can get out alive this time, will the boss keep his word? β
He hesitated.
"If I die, then don't say anything! But if I survive...... Who else can I trust? β
He became suspicious.
Among the seven brothers, Xiao Tienu is the most insecure, which is why he is often separated from the other brothers. Even if he was good friends with Ouyang Shi, he never thought that Ouyang Shi was enough to have a heart-to-heart relationship.
After nearly ten years of getting along with each other, he gradually believed in the martial arts of Zhe Yanchong, the righteousness and courage of Cao Guangbi and the wisdom of Yang Yingqi. But today, he suddenly felt that Zhi Yanchong might not be worth believing, "The boss is too ruthless!" He suddenly felt that the second brother might be more credible, although the second brother and his philosophy are far from each other, but "the second child is at least a little roundabout!" β
This is really ironic, in the past, Xiao Tienu was most disgusted with Cao Guangbi's detour, because he was in a good situation at the time, so Cao Guangbi's detour hindered him, but now he is in a desperate situation, and he suddenly found the cuteness of pedantic.
Then he thought of Yang Yingqi again, "If this matter is changed to the seventh child, what will he do?" Well, if it's up to him, things will definitely mess up! He couldn't make up his mind about this kind of thing, which killed and injured millions of people and destroyed all nations. Xiao Tienu thinks that Yang Yingqi's heart is too soft and he has too many feelings, these two things are not what a leader should have, "He can't see dead people, there are some things he knows that some people can't do without dying, and he also arranged things, but after arranging them, he was still sad!" β
Xiao Tienu saw Yang Yingqi's depressed appearance, he looked at it and sneered at that time, but now he couldn't laugh anymore, he suddenly thought: "If the boss wants me to die, I'm afraid I won't frown after killing me; If Lao Qi arranges this matter, he will probably feel sorry for me for a long time after killing me...... Well, he's going to be sad, maybe he won't have to wait to kill me, he'll be sad before he does it, but he'll probably do it anyway! β
Xiao Tienu is not a good person, in his eyes, there is no good person among all the people he knows, the difference is just: "The second child works hard to be a good person; Lao Qi is like a good person; The third child tries not to touch things that may turn into bad people; Lao Wu is a straight-hearted person, and may think that what he does is a good person; What about the fourth? He just wants to pretend to be a good person, but he probably can't pretend to be, he is too stupid compared to Ying Qi! As for the boss...... Hey! I've done all the bad things, so he doesn't have to be the bad guy. β
He felt lonely that night, which reminded him of the night he was trapped in the wolves after being defeated by Yang Yingqi by Zhiyan Chong. That night he was truly at the end of his rope, and instinctively fled in the midst of the wolves to where he could be rescuedβwhere there were his enemies, but they saved him, and eventually became a brother to him.
"And now? Who else is going to save me? β
No, no, Zhi Yanchong was under house arrest, Cao Guangbi returned to the Great Song Dynasty, and Yang Yingqi was thousands of miles away - not to mention, even if they were nearby, would they come to save themselves? Xiao Tienu was not sure - he had no confidence in his brothers.
The sun was already setting in the west, Xiao Tienu's stomach was growling, he was hungry, and the soldiers under him were also hungry.
"It's time to get down to business......"
He stood up, secretly instructed his henchmen to act, and then gathered the whole army and said, "This time we fell into the trap of the Xia people, do you know why? β
The soldiers who were starting to get hungry shouted, "Why? β
"For among us, there are traitors!"
"...... Uproar"
After the hustle and bustle, Xiao Tienu said: "Now that the traitor has been taken, what do you say?" β
The generals shouted, "Slaughtered!" Slaughtered! Otherwise, it's going to be fine! Someone else said, "Slaughtered?" That's too cheap for him! I said they should be crushed to ashes! β
"Not bad!" Thousands of people said: "Break the bones and scatter ashes!" β
At this time, I don't know who said: "It's a pity to break the bones and scatter ashes, I said that their meat should be removed, their hearts and livers should be dug out, cooked, and eaten, which is the solution to the hatred in my heart!" β
As soon as these words came out, hundreds of stomachs rang out at the scene, and many people shouted: "Treat the traitors!" Even if you eat it, you deserve it! β
"That's it! Deserve! β
"Good!" As soon as Xiao Tienu waved his hand, his henchmen and soldiers took hundreds of people to the lowlands, and Xiao Tienu pointed with his hand: "These are all traitors!" β
Seeing that there were hundreds of traitors, thousands of proud soldiers and fierce generals were all quiet for a while, and their heads were flexible to see that there was no core soldier of Xiao Ziqi among these "traitors", all of them were the most alienated Xiao Ziqi newcomers, as well as some injured and sick people who had no influence in the army, and vaguely guessed what Xiao Tienu was going to do!
Sure enough, Xiao Tienu said: "Today I am going to execute these traitors, so that everyone can have a full meal!" Do you think it's good? β
Hundreds of voices among the thousands of people responded loudly, Xiao Tienu waved his hand, and his own henchmen escorted these blindfolded, ear-plugged, and bundled "traitors" to the rear camp, and killed them in batches. That night, Xiao Tienu took the lead in using chopsticks, and hundreds of the most savage generals didn't think about it, grabbed the cooked meat and ate it. The others were in this situation, and slowly followed suit, only a few hundred people could not eat anyway, but the next day they were really hungry, and they were afraid that they would lose their strength and become military food, so they had to follow and eat.
In this way, Xiao Ziqi survived, although they didn't know how long they could survive.
