Chapter 100: Southeast, Northwest (II)
Back in the palace, Chengda sent scouts to the border to reconnoiter the military situation, but one by one there was no return, and there was no news, and he couldn't help but be like ants on a hot pot, so anxious that he turned around. At this time, the guard took a piece of animal skin, presented it, and said, "O king, I don't know whom, tied the animal skin to the tail of the arrow, and shot it in." ”
Cheng Da took the list, couldn't help but be so angry that his face was flushed, he threw it on the ground, his feet stepped on it fiercely, his eyes burned with a raging flame, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Hmph, I want the widow to surrender, hum, wishful thinking!" If the country is broken, and the widow thanks the country with death, how can he steal his life! ”
When the guards heard this, they were also inspired, and said in a loud voice: "I am willing to follow the king and live and die together!" The sonorous sound was like a sword, as if it was about to pierce the layers of dark clouds that shrouded the sky over Shule!
The guards left, the deep palace was lonely, Chengda's heart was like numbness, he really wanted to be alone, leave the palace, and fight on the battlefield! At this time, the guards pushed and shoved, brought a person, pressed him to the ground, and shouted: "Kneel! But the man had backbone, his eyebrows were angry, he stood proudly, the guards were angry, his fists and feet hit like raindrops, the man didn't avoid it, he just sneered: "Death is coming, and you have to be strong, ridiculous, ridiculous!" ”
Cheng Dayi waved his hand, and the guards retreated. Cheng Da asked, "Who are you?" What did you mean by that? ”
The man raised his head and said: "You are the king of Shule, I have seen you, when our king's son was king in Shule, you were just a captain, it was really a Shibei three days, impressive, you actually became a king, hum, Shule state affairs, it can be seen from this." ”
Cheng Da stared fiercely and said, "Are you from Qiuzi?" ”
"Exactly!"
The guards came up and said, "The king, when patrolling the city, this man is sneaky, following behind, we grabbed him, he has something to meet the king, his clothes and accent are different, we expect him to be meticulous, so we caught him in the palace and ask the king to deal with it!" ”
Cheng Da snorted, pulled out his saber, pointed at the Qiuzi people, and said viciously: "Do you want to come to the widow?" Hmph, the sea can be dry, the stone can be rotten, the widow is attached to the heart of the Han Dynasty, like the sun and the moon, even if he dies, he will not fall! Even if the last drop of blood is shed, the Shule people will never give in! ”
These words were loud, and the Qiuzi people were stunned for a moment, thinking: "This is a big iron bone, but it is a bit bloody, I didn't expect it!" After a pause, he said, "The king must not be rash!" As long as you surrender, work with us, and kill Ban Chao, this Shule king, you still do it, and you will not be harmed at all, there is a saying in the Han Dynasty, called the person who knows the affairs of the handsome, why not think twice? ”
Cheng Da shook his wrist, only to see a flash of white light, a knife with cold light has been set on the neck of the Qiuzi people, the breath of death spread on the cold blade, the Qiuzi people trembled: "You, what do you want to do......"
"The widow wants to see if it's your mouth or my sword!" Cheng Da's words are like needles, pierced on the eardrums of Qiuzi people.
"You ......"
"Kill you, stain the knife! However, the widow still wants to borrow your head and tell General Ban that I am not like Wusun and Shache countries, and I rebel against each other! ”
The Qiuzi people were pale and wanted to run, but their legs were weak, where could they run? Cheng Da gritted his teeth, strengthened his hand, and a black human head flew straight over, blood splattered all over the ground, Cheng Da wiped the spatula and said, "Prepare the horse, go to General Ban!" The guards picked up the heads and skins and stepped out of the temple. Shunhua
Cheng Da arrived at the door of Ban's mansion, and the officials went out to obstruct him, saying: "General Ban is still seriously ill and can't take care of things, the king also asks to go back to the palace, and when the condition heals a little, General Ban will visit the king!" ”
The guards couldn't bear it anymore, threw the animal skins and the turtle head, and shouted: "The king will entrust Shule to the Han Dynasty, but General Ban has avoided it again and again, isn't he afraid of chilling everyone's hearts?" In the future, who will still be willing to attach to the Han Dynasty in the Western Regions? Now the country is full of meticulous work, rumors are spreading, people are uneasy, General Ban does not come out to reassure the people, Shule will no longer exist! ”
These words were righteous and stern, and when the officials heard it, they couldn't help but be moved. Cheng Da strode in, and the officials did not stop him. Chengda went straight to the bedroom, there was no one on the bed, turned around again, and went to the back garden, alone in front of the pool, as if admiring the flowers, and as if contemplation.
"How is General Ban? Are the flowers in the pond beautiful? However, this flower has buds, and I don't know if there is a day to bloom. Cheng Da said slowly.
Ban Chao looked at the pool in a daze, suddenly heard a voice behind him, hurriedly turned around, saw that it was Chengda, and exclaimed: "King, why are you here?"
"General Ban, Shule is attached to the heart of the Han Dynasty, comparable to the sun and the moon! Guizi writes a book and sends guests, but he still can't shake the widow's will for half a point! "When the completion is over, the guards present animal skins and human heads.
Ban Chao glanced at it, and said: "The son of King Jian of Qiuzi, he is not of the Shule clan, relying on force, temporarily controlling Shule, he bullies the people, and does all kinds of evil!" At that time, the king was the captain, and when he saw it with his own eyes, he hated it! Now that the turtles are entangled in the invasion of various countries, the teacher of the past, the future will not be forgotten, the king will remember the past and mourn all over the wilderness, of course he will swear to die, what else do I have to worry about? ”
"Why did the general stop me repeatedly on the grounds that he was seriously ill? You must know that the military situation is urgent, changing rapidly, and if it is a few days late, I am afraid that Shule will no longer belong to me! ”
Ban Chao smiled slightly: "The king is still complaining about me!" I am indeed very sick, but this disease is a disease of the heart! As the saying goes, military aircraft must not be leaked, at present, the streets and alleys are full of fine works, if I tell the king, the king will be at ease, if it is detected by the fine work, it will be unfavorable! Even the scouts sent by the king were intercepted by me one by one. ”
Cheng Da looked happy: "So, the general has a good plan?" ”
"Wusun, Dawan, have always been friends with my Han, this time to send troops, but bluff, I repair a book, send someone to send it, they will stop halfway, pretending to be a show, these two soldiers, don't worry." Ban Chao picked up a stone and threw it into the pool, a wave of waves, ten thousand lines, Cheng Da also stared at the pool surface, as if he had an understanding.
Ban Chao took another stone, held it in his hand, but did not throw it out, and said while rubbing it: "Gumo, Wulei Su attached to the turtle, these two soldiers, it is quite difficult for me." Gumo produces iron, the soldiers are sharp, and they have the help of turtles, and the non-fierce generals are not enough to resist, I have sent Chen Jian to go, and this road is worry-free! The southern plain is easy to defend and difficult to defend, but I have built trenches, river moats, maso and other fortifications, and there are no mines and few soldiers, I sent a fierce general to suppress the evil, this way, of course, worry-free! ”
