Chapter 124: A Different Way of Understanding
Li Jing looked stunned, and reacted after a little thought.
He ordered: "Childe said that it was too dark below, immediately ignite the fire oil at both ends and in the middle!" ”
"No!"
The sergeant who gave the order hurriedly received the order and conveyed the order.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, at the mouth of the valley at both ends and twenty meters away from King Donghu, one by one the jars were thrown down.
The jar shattered as it hit the ground, and the filled liquid splattered.
"This smell is fire oil!"
"Watch out for the torches!"
Immediately, the Hu man who was approaching the altar sniffed, his face changed in an instant, and he hurriedly retreated.
Those who were splashed with fire oil shouted in horror and kept retreating.
King Donghu's face turned pale, and he looked up at the jar thrown down in the distance in horror, and muttered to himself: "The Qin army is going to kill them all!" ”
Gou Li's face was also a little pale, and he still smiled calmly: "Hahaha, King Donghu, with you with me, I won't be lonely on the road!" ”
At this moment, Gou Li really put his death out of the way.
In the angry army of Donghu, who were in a desperate situation, they had already prepared for the worst!
Fortunately, the Qin army on the cliff only stopped after throwing a few jars with fire oil.
Immediately afterward, the torches fell.
Boom!
In an instant, the flames rose, illuminating the dim valley illuminated only by torches.
There was an unlucky egg with fire oil on his body, and he was also ignited the moment the torch fell, and rolled on the ground in pain.
At the valley mouth and in the middle of the two ends, there was a heart-rending scream.
King Donghu looked at the flames burning twenty meters away, and his ears rang with a heart-rending scream, and his face turned even paler under the reflection of the torches.
In the middle section, the king of Donghu and several tribal leaders were present, and after only a small commotion, they calmed down under the shouting of the officers.
And the front and back ends are separated by several miles, and there is no main backbone to hold on, and when the fire ignited, there was confusion immediately, thinking that the Qin people were going to use fire to attack!
Those who approached the stone pile climbed up regardless of it, even if they climbed over the road blocked by the big stone and were shot by the Qin army, it was better than being burned alive by fire oil!
However, these people who climbed over the wall did get their wish, and were immediately killed by a barrage of arrows after climbing over the stone pile!
Gou Li raised his head and shouted with confidence: "Surrender, or you will all be burned to ashes in the valley!" The son is benevolent, as long as he is willing to submit, he will give you a piece of territory belonging to Donghu in Shangjun to ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing! ”
The sound of neutrality echoed through the valley, far and far in the night.
In particular, the Hu people, who were close to the firelight, looked at their companions who were wailing and rolling on the ground covered in flames, and the idea of surrender rose in terror.
However, the king of Donghu did not speak, and they did not dare to say it even if they had the idea of surrendering.
Otherwise, a crime of insulting the warriors of the steppe can be hacked and killed on the spot!
Standing on the cliff in the distance, Fusu heard a shout from afar, squinted his eyes and ordered: "Tell Donghu that what Gou Li said is what this son meant!" ”
Chen Song's expression was surprised, and he subconsciously asked, "Childe, did you really promise to set aside a piece of land in Shangjun for these alien races?" ”
Fu Su glanced at it with slanted eyes, and said mockingly: "Yes, the mine cave in Heilinpo was contracted by Donghu!" ”
The word contract has been mentioned more than once in the documents issued by Fusu.
For example, when housing was built for people who had migrated, local craftsmen were allowed to contract to build it.
The cement needed can be purchased from the official after registration.
This measure is also aimed at solving the current shortage of manpower, and at the same time to resettle the accommodation problem of the migrants as soon as possible.
As long as they can make money, those craftsmen will take their apprentices to work overtime at night after they have finished the tasks assigned by the government.
This is the power of money!
However, in the mines of Heilinpo, the most dangerous and heavy excavation tasks were handed over to the Xiongnu prisoners.
After several accidents, exhaustion and accidental attrition have been in the hundreds.
When the time comes, all the Xiongnu prisoners will be drawn out and all will be pulled to build the Great Wall.
Isn't the mine cave in Heilinpo the territory of the Donghu people!
Reasonable, perfectly fulfilled the promise, and simply impeccable!
After Chen Song realized the intention of the son, he was in good spirits and immediately took the horn made of iron sheet from the hands of his subordinates.
Quickly ran to the top of the cliff where King Donghu was, and said loudly: "Gongzi has an order, and the promises made by Gou Li are all valid!" ”
Suddenly, the Hu people below were all stunned.
Several leaders glanced at each other, and their faces also showed expressions of interest.
Compared with being in a desperate situation, it is better to serve the Qin State, and it can be exchanged for a glimmer of life.
If he really set aside a piece of land for the Hu people to live on, wouldn't he still be the leader of the tribe, but he just entered the Great Wall from outside the Great Wall.
Besides, it's better to find the right opportunity to escape back to the grasslands.
As long as the soldiers and horses are in hand, he is still the leader of the tribe!
Someone couldn't help but whisper: "Or, vote for Qin?" ”
King Donghu's eyes widened, and his face showed anger.
If other soldiers dared to say this, they would have cut off this cholera soldier's heart with a knife.
But it was a tribal leader who spoke, and if he drew his sword in anger, he didn't need to use the Qin people's hands, and he would have to kill you in the nest!
King Donghu's face was gloomy, and he said, "The Qin people are cunning, but they can't be deceived!" ”
Someone immediately raised a different opinion: "It is rumored that this eldest son of Great Qin has always been benevolent and kind to the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, what if what he said is true?" ”
"Yes, yes, now our army still has the capital to negotiate! In case the other side attacks with fire, we don't talk about whether we can survive or not, but the lost warriors will not have the capital to make a comeback! The other leader nodded approvingly.
King Donghu's face was gloomy, and he resisted from the bottom of his heart to join Qin.
After all, in the steppe, he is the king of the Donghu tribes and has the supreme right to rule.
But if you vote for Qin, you will no longer be the biggest king!
Just when he hesitated, the other leader said with a serious face:
"The thing that just made the mountain rock collapse is definitely a new weapon developed by the Qin people, if they collapse the entire valley, then we ......."
Suddenly, the hearts of several leaders trembled, and their faces turned pale.
Gou Li's eyes lit up, and he immediately persuaded: "Come down, Gongzi is benevolent, promise to set aside a piece of land for you Hu people, and you will never break your word!" ”
"Yes, yes, come down!" Several leaders agreed and said: "As long as the soldiers and horses are in hand, we still have a chance to return to the grassland!" ”
"Hmph, it seems that you haven't been beaten yet!" Fusu frowned impatiently.
Li Jing understood and immediately ordered: "Archers prepare, two rounds of salvo!" ”
Squeak squeak!
Suddenly, the sound of a bowstring filling up the valley sounded.
King Donghu's face changed drastically, and he struggled inwardly for a moment.
Gritted his teeth and said, "Put down your weapons and surrender to Qin!" ”
