Text Chapter 508 Flying cold light between square inches
Once upon a time, there was a dialogue between monarchs and ministers in the Xuanmu Pavilion of Weiyang Palace in Chang'an, and now not many people in the world know about it. In the current national situation, the detailed explanation of the Xiongnu policy made by Yuan Zhao according to the emperor's inquiry, as well as the major decisions made subsequently, are still the highest state secrets.
The duet of monarchs and ministers, which was recorded and sorted out by Dongfang Shuo and Sima Qian, was personally collected by His Majesty the Emperor in the Treasure Pavilion, and together with many important documents, it belonged to the loyal Xi Fengwei under special protection.
When the overall situation of the Han and Hungarian dynasties was decided not long after, and finally circulated to the world, people of insight who heard its details were all admired and admired when the basic principles of the relations between the Han and other ethnic groups were properly handled.
"History of the Han Empire" solemnly recorded Yuan Zhao's original words in detail in the chapter on diplomatic relations. The reason for this is to leave an example for future generations, so that later rulers can know how to handle this relationship well.
"It is impossible to achieve complete peace between countries and between nations by relying only on absolute force...... No matter how strong the power in his hands is, he can't suppress the inner disobedience and the ever-present struggle between different races...... Don't be violent, be cooperative! Only a win-win situation is the strongest bond for maintaining peace and friendship. Therefore, we opened the Western Regions to do an exploration and experiment. In this multi-ethnic region, including the Huns, a completely new path was created. Economic, cultural, ethnic exchanges, wealth sharing...... Using the strong strength and backing of the Han Dynasty, these countries that reached the influence were firmly attached to the surroundings of the Han Empire...... At that time, will it be necessary to take advantage of the expeditionary army of labor......? Of course, before that, it is necessary to rely on the knives in the hands of the Han soldiers to subdue Huaiyuan. Do you want to add up or have a glass of wine? I believe that when the time comes, as long as the country and nation want to survive well, they will make the right choice ....... ”
Yuan Zhao's thinking has a far-reaching impact. Later generations of politicians have all taken it as a guideline and resolutely implemented it. That is, from the beginning of this western expedition, the foreign policy of the Han Dynasty completely embarked on the road of "knife and honey". Those who obey the will form mutually beneficial friends and share prosperity. And those who disobey and offend our great man will be punished even if they are far away!
Of course, in the minds of the Emperor and the very few who knew about this policy, although they knew that it was a very motivating goal, most of them agreed that it would not be easy to achieve. At the very least, it will take time to win the national war, and even if it is an optimistic estimate, it may take decades before the first results are achieved. That's a great feat!
It's just that they don't know that some people "10,000 years is too long, just seize the day!" "Yuan Zhaocai doesn't have those patience to wait for decades. Some things, if you don't do it, now that you have decided to do it, then use the most simple and thorough means to turn the world upside down and be generous, and the mountains and rivers will change color day and night!
If the Western Regions is a game of loose chess, then the most critical game of chessboard robbery in the middle is the contest with the Huns. It is not enough to defeat the unruly people. The vastness of the grassland was enough for them to quickly regain their strength. Yuan Zhao did not want the war between Han and Hungary to evolve into a long-term war, as it has been in history. That's why he personally came to the Western Regions and came to the most critical place of this war. Success or failure may be between turning hands, depending on whether you can grasp it!
When Yuan Zhao stepped into the yellow sand of the Gobi in the Western Regions, the first thing he did was to collect all the information he wanted to know in as much detail as possible.
One of the most critical allies came to his side. It was Yu Dan, the prince of the Xiongnu who had been stranded in the Dayue clan for a long time. Nearly seven or eight years of exile have made this Xiongnu prince mature long ago. Now, in his heart, the reason why he helped Yuan Zhao was that even he couldn't tell whether it was the hatred of Shan Yuyi in his heart or the friendship of his former friends.
When Li Dang led the flying cavalry to explore the road and inadvertently captured the two Han army rangers, after detailed interrogation, it was learned that they were ordered to go to the army of the Hun evil king to spread the news. In addition to the anger of everyone around him, Yuan Zhao was keenly aware that a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was close at hand!
So, after careful planning, Yuan Zhao rode alone to the army of the Hun Evil King and the Hutu King as a messenger. And with the envoys of the Western Regions, he accompanied the army, and saw the fierce battle between the Red Fire Army and the 20,000 Hun cavalry from beginning to end.
The bravery and fearlessness of the Han soldiers made him both proud and compassionate. However, this is a sacrifice that must be made. Their blood and lives will not be sacrificed in vain, and their souls are not far away, and they will return!
The Evil King of Hun was simply angry when he saw the remnants of his soldiers running back in embarrassment. In front of King Hutu and the envoys of the Western Regions, how could he be embarrassed by the arrogance of the king of the west!
"Command the left and right flanks to outflank them and shoot them with arrows. The Chinese army attacked! Give me the Han army on the opposite side as meat sauce! ”
The Evil King shouted loudly. He didn't believe it, no matter how powerful the Han army was, but it could still survive when it was ten times the enemy? Don't say it's a fight, even if you only use a curved bow to shoot, you can shoot all of them into hedgehogs!
The three armies of the Huns, the left and right cavalry archers, the most elite of the Chinese army! Seeing the three armies dispatched together, the Red Fire Army could not escape. However, the orders of the Evil King were not conveyed to the army by the warriors who gave the order. Because there was a person who didn't know when he came to his side, and only said a word coldly.
"Don't act rashly! Otherwise, the head moves. ”
The Evil King and the King of Hutu stood side by side, less than a distance of a horse's body in between. Around them, there were thousands of guarded steppe warriors. These are loyal fighters, absolute henchmen. However, the person who spoke with murderous aura was right next to them, and within a few moments, the murderous opportunity suddenly started!
Whether it was the two Xiongnu kings or the soldiers under their command, they never thought that there would be enemies in this world who could quietly come to them among tens of thousands of troops. All those who heard the voice suddenly looked up and looked at it! The envoys of the Western Regions not far away were already stunned, staring at the mutation that was happening under their noses without even blinking, not knowing what terrible thing would happen next.
Tens of thousands of Hun cavalry were waiting in front of the army, only to see that under the banner of the king in the hunting wind, there was a person dressed as an ordinary Han sergeant, just like that, standing upright on the back of the horse of the evil king, and casually pulled out the Han knife he was wearing, and within dozens of zhang, everyone's life and death were in his hands!
A cold light flickered, and a loud roar and an angry roar rang out at the same time. The Hun warriors in charge of the escort showed their swords one after another, what a shame this is! In the protection of thousands of people, the safety of his own prince has been threatened, no matter who this person is, he will definitely be cut into pieces, this is everyone's first thought!
The most closely protected Huns reacted the fastest, and they were all advanced cultivators on the grassland. Although they felt the invisibility of the attacking enemy and the terrifying momentum emanating from their bodies, they did not hesitate and fought back as soon as they sensed that the situation was not good.
They have long protected the safety of the Hun king, and they have long had a tacit understanding with each other. Four or five of them jumped up, attacking the enemy's vital points from different directions with knives in their hands, and these knives were so powerful that they formed a waterfall of sword light in front of the person, using this form to isolate the evil king from him. The other two pounced on their horses, ready to drag the Evil King off their horses, making sure he was safe and sound, and then working together to surround and kill the attacking enemy.
Their reactions are not unpleasant, and their rescue methods are not untimely and correct. With the joint efforts of seven or eight first-class braves, even if it is the strongest person on the grassland, that Flying Fire Desert God Mo Yunbai is here, I am afraid it will be difficult to resist!
However, in the next moment, the stormy attack had no effect. In the flash of light, the people around him slowed down by half a beat, and no one even saw what was going on. It was as if the giant hand of reincarnation had slowed back time by half an inch, and then moved forward abruptly. In the midst of the dazzle, I only heard the screams, and the blood splashed like raindrops......!
Rescue and rescue, it all happened in the blink of an eye. When the blood of the loyal guards splashed on his face, the Evil King of Hun had not finally reacted until now. The nameless Han soldier who came to report the message earlier to spread the meaning of the Han Dynasty's rebel generals killed several of the most powerful master guards around him with a wave of his hand! And...... He felt a chill on his neck, as if the blood-dripping knife was looking for a place where he could cut off his head with one slash!
This experience of being on the verge of death at any time made the Evil King feel like a dead soul. The huge sense of oppression behind him made him dare not look back at all. In his eagerness, when he desperately tried to recall what that Han soldier looked like, he couldn't piece together the slightest impression. At this moment, it was as if a wild beast was spreading its jagged fangs and entrenched behind his horse. Maybe the next moment, we'll swallow him to the bone!
"Who are you?! It's just bold. Hurry up and let go of Brother Evil King, otherwise you will die a good-looking death! ”
It was the king of Hugh Tu who made the threat. He was also shocked in his heart. Although he didn't see clearly how the other party killed people just now, with this terrible method, he believed that everyone within the range of that long knife, including himself and the Evil King, would not be able to escape his sword-wielding slaughter.
"Pretty to die? Hehe! I'll leave that to yourself...... I tell you, King Hugh, you are going to die soon, and you will die by the sword of your best brother Wang! Wouldn't it be a surprise to tell you this result in advance?"
With a hint of ridicule, the young Han man whistled, and an eagle swooped down from the sky and landed on his arm. Then I saw him tear off a strip of cloth, dipped his fingertips in the blood of the slain, wrote a few words casually, tied them to the eagle's legs, and gently supported them, and the eagle flapped its wings and went away......!
In the land of the Western Regions, the dragon and the tiger leaped, and among the fierce Hun iron cavalry army, some people happened to master the situation in their spare time, and the victory was in hand.
