Chapter Twenty-Nine: Prestige
Miss Yan Wanqiu's spirit has been extremely nervous for the past few days, and she has never rested at all, although this tent is extremely simple, but with the two generals of Beiliang outside to protect her, she sleeps very steadily. Outside the tent, Duan Zhong and Xiao Zhengrong were lying on their backs on the grass, looking at the sky and counting the stars together. At this moment, it was almost dawn, although Duan Zhong and Xiao Zhengrong were extremely tired, but they didn't feel sleepy, listening to the snoring of the soldiers on the side, they suddenly felt that this seemed to be a wonderful thing.
Xiao Zhengrong said "hey" softly, and Duan Zhong touched his nose: "What's wrong?" ”
Xiao Zhengrong sighed and said, "Do we still want to go to the depths of the prairie?" Our action is so big, I'm afraid that the news will spread all over the steppe within two days, and as long as we appear again, we will face the entire Hun tribe chasing and killing! ”
Duan Zhong touched his nose: "This is a sure thing, if Su Bujie is not a fool, he will naturally make a look of revenge for Bai, large-scale dissemination of information is inevitable, and if it is not as I expected, at this moment he is leading the soldiers of the Baihui tribe to search for our traces in the opposite direction." ”
"Then we have to go deep into the prairie, isn't this self-defeating?"
"No, no, haven't you heard of the truth that soldiers don't get tired of cheating? We have only 2,000 soldiers, so the Huns will naturally think that we are just making a small fight on the border, and they absolutely never imagined that we would dare to continue deep into the steppe. Since there is still time, we will fight a few more beautiful battles and return to Beiliang with glory. ”
Xiao Zhengrong thought for a moment: "What you said is naturally not wrong, but have you ever thought that once there is an accident, all of us may be donated here." The most important thing is that there is an extra woman around us on this trip, and there are always many inconveniences. ”
Duan Zhong sighed: "I know that your consideration is naturally reasonable. But have you ever thought that there are some things that we need to keep doing since we have done them? We have worked hard to bury the nail of Su Bujie on the grassland, if we withdraw from the grassland at this moment, Su Bujie will always be a bone marquis, and after we are gone, when the Northern Liang attacks the Xiongnu in a big way, bite us back. So what we need to do now is to give him more strength and really let him play the role of a nail! Otherwise, this trip to the grassland, in addition to the corresponding prestige, really gained nothing, and also cost the lives of hundreds of soldiers in vain! After speaking, Duan Zhong patted Xiao Zhengrong on the shoulder, "You don't have to think so much, as the so-called boat is naturally straight to the bridge, we will implement it according to the original plan, I don't believe that our luck will be so bad, and we can't even save two small lives!" As he spoke, he glanced at the tent beside him, "Aren't you interested in this girl, this time on the grassland is a good opportunity to cultivate feelings!" ”
Xiao Zhengrong sighed, and finally didn't speak. And Duan Zhong also touched his nose, closed his eyes and fell asleep. After all, I'm not an iron man, and I'll have to ride a horse tomorrow.
When Duan Zhong woke up, it was already morning, and he had slept for about two hours. Duan Zhong found that under extremely stressful situations, even if he slept did not need to be as long as before, his energy could remain abundant for a long time, of course, this was based on the premise of an early overdraft of his body, and such an overdraft would last for at least a month.
And after waking up, it is natural to continue to hurry, but this has encountered a problem, although Yan Wanqiu girl grew up in Bianrong since she was a child and rode a big horse, but these nearly two thousand soldiers are all horses and horses, and there are no extra horses at all, so they must be shared with others, as for who to ride with, Duan Zhong naturally has no opinion on Xiao Zhengrong's positive performance. It's a pity that in the face of Xiao Zhengrong's strong invitation, Miss Yan Wanqiu shook her head very resolutely, and turned her pitiful gaze to Duan Chong, the meaning was obvious, she wanted to share a horse with Duan Chong, and the reason was also very direct and powerful: "General Duan has always taken me on horseback before, and I'm used to it!" ”
Got used to it? Xiao Zhengrong's face turned green when he heard this, he was still in a fucking coma when he took Yan Wanqiu with him, where did he feel like it, can he get used to it? The reason for this obviously sounds like ...... No. So Xiao Zhengrong's heart was traumatized again, but fortunately, Xiao Zhengrong's heart was very thick and belonged to the kind of perseverance. And since Miss Yan Wanqiu rejected herself, it was naturally difficult to continue to insist, so she could only shrug her shoulders helplessly and turn over to the horse. Duan Zhong touched his nose and shook his head helplessly, hey, the beauty strongly demanded, what can he do? Stay there. grabbed Miss Yan Wanqiu's arm, gently lifted her on the horse's back, turned over on the horse, shouted "drive", and rode away.
In the past few days, the grassland has been quite restless, almost all the Huns have been tossed and unable to sleep, because there is such a mysterious Beiliang cavalry force, every time it will take advantage of the middle of the night to suddenly appear in front of the Huns' camp, rush into the sleeping Huns' camp as quickly as possible, carry out a burning, killing and looting, by the way, put a fire on each tent, and then disappear in the vast grassland before the Huns react.
For more than ten years, the Northern Liang people have never set foot in the grassland, and this time the sudden appearance of cavalry forces suddenly brought great panic to the Huns. In less than a month, five Hun camps had been attacked, and all of them were extremely important camps. What's even more terrifying is that within this month, two Gudu Marquis and one Dadu Lieutenant have died under the assassination of the Northern Liang people. This is a terrible thing.
The hierarchy of the Xiongnu was much simpler than that of the Liang State, and the leader was naturally the now reigning Uwei Danyu, who commanded all the soldiers and horses on the grassland. There are two virtuous kings under Shan Yu, both of whom hold heavy troops and heavy generals, if they are changed to Beiliang, it is equivalent to the position of generalissimo of soldiers and horses, and under each virtuous king, there are two captains to help Xianwang take charge of military horses, and the authority is also great. And below the captain of the capital is the level of the bone capital Hou Xu Bujie. Therefore, the death of a Grand Commander was enough to make them panic because it hurt the bones of the Xiongnu ruling class.
The most terrible thing is that when the Huns had entangled a large number of troops to prepare for encirclement and suppression of the cavalry unit of the Northern Liang, the cavalry of the Northern Liang could disappear without a trace on the prairie, that is, even the Huns who were most familiar with the prairie could not find any clues, which was really incredible. And the number of this cavalry is less than two thousand.
So in this short period of one month, the prestige of the Northern Liang cavalry team was quickly established, and now all the Xiongnu camps are heavily guarded, once there is any trouble, all the soldiers will pick up their weapons and jump on the horses at the first time, ready to fight to the death with the Northern Liang people. However, when all the Huns were soldiers, the cavalry of the Northern Liang suddenly disappeared and never appeared again.
Of course, in this encirclement and suppression of the Northern Liang cavalry, an outstanding general also emerged. Gudu Hou Xu Bujie, after being attacked by the Northern Liang people, was able to save the neighboring Gudu Hou Baihui's tribe at the first time, although Bai Hui was assassinated by the Northern Liang people, but at least prevented the tribe from suffering greater damage. At the same time, the message of the Northern Liang cavalry spread throughout the entire grassland at the fastest speed, allowing the Xiongnu tribe to guard against each other and avoid greater losses for the entire tribe. Therefore, Wang Ting is very satisfied with Su Bujie's performance. And this time the assassinated Dadu Lieutenant was under the Youxian King, and Su Bujie was the general under the jurisdiction of this Dadu Lieutenant, so as long as the matter of the Northern Liang cavalry was settled, it is very likely that Su Bujie would take over the position of Dadu Lieutenant.
And the initiators of all this, Duan Zhong and Xiao Zhengrong, are riding war horses at the moment, playing hide and seek with the Huns on the prairie. After all, for the grassland, the familiarity of the Huns is much higher than their own, if it weren't for Su Bujie's news all the way to inform the Huns of the encirclement and pursuit route, these thousand people would definitely have all been confessed to this grassland. Rao is so, playing hide and seek with the Huns is really a very exhausting thing, the slightest carelessness will be exposed to the vision of the Huns, and once exposed, it is difficult to have a chance to escape!
At this moment, the sky had gradually darkened, and Duan Zhong sat on the horseback, quietly waiting for the darkness to come. In front of this Northern Liang cavalry is a small Hun camp.
Xiao Zhengrong rode a horse and stood behind Duan Chong: "Do you really want to fight here?" The purpose of our trip has been achieved, why do we have to add right and wrong, if we are not targeted by the Huns, it will be a big trouble! ”
Duan Zhong sighed and shook his head again, in fact, he himself didn't know whether this last battle should be fought or not, and the two thousand cavalry he brought with him now had more than 1,300 people left, and many of them were wounded. It really shouldn't be fought. But a message from Su Bujie made Duan Zhong hesitate again. So Duan Zhong turned his head and glanced at Xiao Zhengrong: "You say, if the princess of the Huns is really in this camp, should we fight?" ”
Xiao Zhengrong bit his lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally bit his lip and said, "Fight!" "Indeed, it would be a great thing to be able to capture a Hun princess alive." But what if the news is fake? ”
Duan Zhong sighed: "So, I'm betting." And you, would you like to gamble with me? ”
