Chapter 317: Destroying the country and slaughtering the city

Wei Qing was relieved, but another question came up: "In that case, why did this soldier fall into stiff poison?" He is from Wusun, so he should be familiar with this poison! ”

"Where did General Wei find this soldier!" Abri asked.

Wei Qing told the story.

Abri pondered for a while, then suddenly lost his voice and said, "Not good! ”

"What!" Wei Qing asked.

Abri sighed and said, "General Wei, I think this time we can occupy the Wusun Kingdom without blood!" ”

"Please be more detailed!" Wei Qing listened to the clouds, but he really didn't know what to do.

Abri said slowly: "The mountain you went to is called Wuli Mountain, which is the border of Wusun Kingdom, and this Wusun soldier is hiding in the mountain with a package of food, obviously trying to hide, but? Everyone knows that in the Western Regions, it is impossible for a person to survive in the desert, so why does he want to hide, this is not to avoid the Han army, otherwise he should go to the west of Bosten Lake, instead of hiding in this hill and waiting for death, then, there is only one possibility: he is hiding from the Wusun people, the question is, why should he hide from his own people! ”

Speaking of this, Abri stopped and looked at Wei Qing.

Wei Qing's face was heavy.

"That's because they knew that they couldn't resist our coalition forces, so the whole country committed suicide with zombie poison, and this soldier didn't want to die, so he fled to the mountains in a hurry!" Wei Qing replied.

Abri nodded: "General Wei is really smart!" ”

Wei Qing had no joy in his heart.

Of course, he wanted to eliminate the Wusun army, but he never thought of slaughtering the Wusun country, as long as Wusun surrendered, he would not kill again, and now Wusun refused to surrender in such a tragic way, it was really unexpected for him, thinking that those weak babies and innocent women would also die like this, Wei Qing's heart was very sad.

Why don't you surrender, he angrily questioned Geldan in his heart, of course it's not good to surrender, but it's good to let your people die like this, who is your country built for, who will cultivate your land, and if all the people die for the land, who will own this land.

Wei Qing thought silently for a while before he said in a heavy tone: "Order, the whole army is ready to march immediately, divide the troops into five routes, and at the same time go to explore the five cities of Wusun to see if there are any survivors!" ”

The horn sounded, the army set off, 400,000 troops, divided into five routes, respectively to the five cities of Wusun, Wei Qing led the Chinese army, straight to the city of Wusun Wang.

In the distance, the city of Wusun is in sight.

Wei Qing sent a team of scouts to investigate, and after a while, the scouts returned: there was no trace of people in the city.

Wei Qing's heart tightened.

Could it be that the entire inhabitants of Wusun have died?

"Forward!" Wei Qing urged.

The army reached the city.

The city gate was wide open, the city was hunting with flags, and the wind was waving, but there was no human figure, and several birds were hovering at the head of the city, and it seemed that the birds in the city were not alarmed.

A thousand-man march into the city, and after a while the messenger reports that there are no living people in the city.

Wei Qing led the army into the city, and in the city, there were corpses and bones everywhere, one with white bones or prostrate or upright, scattered everywhere, on the streets, in private houses, everywhere, and the people who saw it were shocking.

"Spread out the team and search!" Wei Qing ordered.

The soldiers scattered in all directions, pushing open one house after another, and into the alleys, and in the silence of the royal city, there began to be some noises, but these sounds made people feel more empty.

Suddenly, a few soldiers shouted, and I saw a soldier walking over with a small child: "Commander, we found this child under the bed of a family!" ”

Wei Qing looked at the child, and saw that the child was very young, it looked like he was about ten years old, his face was pale, and his expression was aggrieved, but he was afraid that he had been hungry for several days.

Wei Qing took out a piece of dry food from his arms, and with a water bladder in his other hand, he came to the child, squatted down, and handed over the water and dry food.

The child looked at the water and dry food blankly, and suddenly pounced on it, but he didn't go to get the water and dry food, but grabbed Wei Qing's hand with both hands and bit it down hard.

Wei Qing screamed in pain, wanting to shake the child away, but he was afraid that he would hurt the child with too much strength, and the guards on the side hurriedly rushed over to pull the child away.

The child's eyes were full of hatred, staring at Wei Qing and speaking loudly in Wusun.

Wei Qing retracted his hand, and a piece of meat was actually bitten off by the child on his hand, and it was dripping with blood.

On the side, Mulan hurriedly took out a handkerchief and wrapped Wei Qing's hand.

One of the guards suddenly screamed and pushed the child to the ground, and the child turned his head and bit the guard.

"Stop!" Wei Qing hurriedly shouted: "Don't hit him!" ”

A few of the guards had to stop in hatred.

Wei Qing sighed and said to Abri: "You can settle him well!" Don't treat him badly, the fight between countries, but you can't be angry with the child! ”

Abri's eyes flashed: "General Wei is really benevolent!" With that, he ordered someone to take care of the child.

"Where is the palace!" Wei Qing asked.

Abri pointed forward, "That dome is the building!" ”

"Let's go check it out!" Wei Qing's tone was full of sadness.

The palace is also full of corpses, on the main hall, a corpse bone wearing a golden crown, wearing a dragon robe, sitting behind the dragon case, it seems to be the king, there is a piece of paper on the dragon case, and a few lines of Wusun country are written on the paper.

Abri picked up the paper and read it slowly: "Geerdan, the prime minister of Wusun Kingdom, sent a letter to Wei Qing, the general of the Han Empire: Bosten Lake West, I and fifty warriors are waiting for you, fight to the death, see you or disperse!" ”

Wei Qing sneered, and his tone was sarcastic: "The person who kills all his people is also worthy of being called a warrior, okay!" I will meet this warrior, give orders, rest the army, look for it, see if there is a ship, and prepare to fight this warrior for a decisive battle! ”

Three days later, on the shores of Bosten Lake, Wei Qing was ready to board the boat.

Bosten Lake, also known as the Baka Thorn Red Sea, was known as the West Sea in ancient times. The "Yanqi Offshore Sea" in the "Legend of the Western Regions" and the "Dunxupu" in the "Water Jing Note" all refer to this lake.

This lake is more than 100 miles long from east to west, more than 50 miles wide from north to south, slightly triangular, there are big lakes and small lakes again, the southwest part of the big lake is covered with dozens of small lake areas of different sizes, the lake light and the snow mountain, the oasis, the desert, the strange birds, the different beasts coexist and prosper, set off each other, the waters of the big lake are vast, the smoke and waves are vast, the sky and water are the same color, the waves are surging when the wind rises, just like the sea; When the wind is calm, the waves are rippling, the lake is even the sky, the river in the small lake area is meandering, the reeds are thick, the lotus grass is blooming, the birds are singing and the fish are jumping, the reeds are green and lotus, the winding path is deep, the grass is dense, the wild lotus is in pieces, all kinds of waterfowl inhabit it, a group of Jiangnan water town scenery, standing by the lake to see, Bosten Lake is far away from the Tianshan Mountains, boundless, with the change of weather, sometimes the waves are empty, like an angry sea, sometimes sparkling, the blue waves are thousands of acres, the mountains and rocks in the lake are set against the colorful clouds, and the fish are flying together.

This vast lake, also like the Central Plains, has a beautiful legend, according to legend, a long time ago, there was no lake here, just a beautiful scenery, abundant water and grass prairie, the herdsmen on the grassland live and work in peace and contentment, there is a pair of young lovers, the young man is named Bosten, the girl is called Gaya, they love each other deeply, I don't know when, the rain god in the sky found the beautiful Gaya, to rob him as a wife, Gaya swore to die, the rain god was furious, and the water did not fall for many years, so the grassland was drought, The brave Bosten fought with the rain god for 9981 days, and finally brought the rain god to his knees, but Bosten died of exhaustion and exhaustion, Gaya was in pain, tears turned into a large lake water, and finally died of grief and anger, in order to commemorate them, the local herdsmen named the lake "Bosten Lake".

Wei Qing didn't want to enjoy the scenery, nor did he have the intention to sigh at this beautiful legend, he wanted to prepare for a duel with Geerdan, a big ship had been prepared, which was specially left by Geerdan, Chen Qingzhi, Shi Qian, Ma Chao and five hundred elite soldiers were selected.

Hua Mulan stood aside, watching Wei Qing command the soldiers to board the ship, and finally couldn't help it, walked to Wei Qing's side, and asked in a low voice: "How can you be so sure that Geldan must be waiting for you on the west bank with only ten warriors, what if he is waiting for you there with 30,000 people!" ”

Wei Qing smiled: "No, first of all, Geldan is the first warrior in the Western Regions, he shows himself very highly, he will not lie in this matter, secondly, do you know that he believes in a religion called Islam, according to Abri, people who believe in this religion cannot lie, once they lie, they will fall into hell and never be reborn, and Geldan is a very devout Islamist, not to mention, if there are really 30,000 people on the other side, I will turn the rudder and sail back!" ”

Mulan thought about it, nodded, and said in a low voice, "Be careful!" Wei Qing nodded, saw that the boat was ready, turned around and strode onto the boat.

The crowd on the shore gradually moved away, Wei Qing stood on the deck, this was a three-masted ship, the wind was just right, the sails were hung on the three masts, Wei Qing stood on the side of the ship, listening to the sea breeze, listening to the noise of people on the deck, the sound of waves.

Although it was not the first time Wei Qing had taken a boat, it was indeed the first time he had to cross such a long distance, and after standing for a long time, the novelty had dissipated, so he turned around and returned to the cabin.

After eating at noon, Wei Qing was lying on the bed and napping, hazy and about to fall asleep, a harsh voice came in, what kind of sound was this, Wei Qing was startled.

Again, this time it was more real, a little like the screams of a dying man, but it was definitely not a human voice.

Wei Qing felt a pain in his head, as if this sound could penetrate his brain.

The people in the barn room came out one after another and ran to the deck: "What's going on, what a sound!" Ma Chao stood on the deck and asked loudly.

Wei Qing originally wanted to go out and have a look, but when he heard that Ma Chao was on the deck, he stopped and planned to deal with Ma Chao.

"I've heard this voice, this voice!" An old sailor from the Western Regions shouted loudly, his cry full of horror.

"What is the sound, where is it coming from!" Ma Chao asked urgently.

Remember to read it: convenient for next time, or.
