Text Chapter 509 Heroic and unparalleled
In the historical records of the past and present, there have been many people who turned the situation around with the power of one person at a critical juncture, such a person is usually called "heroic"!
The appearance of similar characters was not uncommon in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Those who are generous and fierce, those who are loyal and alone, and the countrymen are unparalleled, have been praised through the ages.
In that era of grandeur and fierceness, there were people who once bravely entered the royal court single-handedly, did not hesitate to shed five steps of blood for the country, and coerced the king of the enemy country to bow his noble head. Sign the document and compromise the land.
There are also people who have used daggers to hold the monarch hostage with daggers and fight for the greatest interests of their country in the midst of thousands of troops and horses on the platform ......of the alliance.
That great era can be said to be the most wonderful era in the land of China. The essence of heaven and earth seems to be particularly fond of this, and they all burst out in a concentrated blowout. The deeds of many heroes and heroes are not only deeply admired by the people of the Central Plains dynasties, but even the neighboring countries around the barbarian Fanbang have heard of some such things.
The Huns, of course, were no exception. Although they boasted of their bravery and had always been proud of the invincibility of their iron horses across the entire north, they still admired the legends of these legendary brave men of the Central Plains.
It's just that the deadline for this admiration is before the Great Qin Dynasty. For the great First Emperor and the great Great Wall Corps under his command, the fear of the Huns existed for many years.
As for the royal family of the Han Dynasty, although they ended the war at the end of the Qin Dynasty, and went through a hundred battles to gain the world. But in the real thoughts of the Huns, they did not think that the Han Dynasty could pose a threat to themselves. The entire grassland, including Shan Yu Yi's Zhixi, believed that it was difficult for the Han Dynasty's army to reach the level of combat power of the Great Qin army.
As for the generals of the Han Dynasty, the Huns never paid attention to them. Even the founding generals of Emperor Gaozu were like clouds, and in the battle against the Xiongnu, they only ended up in a series of heavy defeats. Not to mention some of the ordinary generals who came later. In the Han-Hungarian contest, it seems that there have always been many Han generals who were defeated and their heads were cut off.
In recent years, although there have been powerful figures like the famous general Li Guang, the Huns have suffered several losses, but it has nothing to do with the overall situation. The situation of pressing the Han Dynasty seems to have never changed.
The appearance of the anomaly began when a Han Dynasty cavalry called the Black Eagle Army appeared on the battlefield. The Xiongnu suffered several successive defeats, especially in the "Henan Campaign" outside the Yanmen Pass, where they suffered the heaviest losses in a century. Not only did they lose their troops, but they also lost the Hetao grassland, which was a springboard for attacking the Han Dynasty.
It was from that time that the Xiongnu realized the sudden burst of powerful combat power of the Han Dynasty army and the serious threat to the steppe. It is precisely for this reason that the Xiongnu court decided to recapture the Hetao grassland from the Han Dynasty at any cost. The simultaneous launch of two fronts outside the Yanmen Pass in the north and the Yumen Pass in the Western Regions was the full embodiment of the will of this war. Hundreds of thousands of troops were dispatched together, which was earth-shattering, and it was the first time since the Xiongnu iron cavalry broke through to the northwest of Chang'an less than 100 miles in the late period of Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty.
After several battles between the northern army gathered by Yu Yi and the defenders of Yanmen Pass led by the Black Eagle Army, they won and lost each other, and now they are in a stalemate. Therefore, Shan Yu Khan pinned the opportunity of victory or defeat in the war on the King of Hutu and the King of Hun Evil.
As long as the Xiongnu Corps in the western steppe marched south and eastward, and attacked from the Yumen Pass and Yangguan of the Han Dynasty through the Western Regions, then with the strong strength of the cavalry under the command of these two Xiongnu kings, they could definitely invade the Han realm in one fell swoop. At that time, whether it was two lines of soldiers and horses, they would flank the Han army in the direction of Yanmen, capture the three cities of Saishang, and recapture the Hetao grassland. Or drive straight into Chang'an, there is too much room for choice!
In the face of the heavy trust of Shan Yu Khan and the ardent expectations of the entire grassland, the evil king of Hun who led all the warriors of the tribe out of the grassland actually very much wanted to complete this glorious task. He wanted his name to be engraved on the land of the steppe and forever in the songs sung by the shepherds.
The Evil King of Hun really wanted to hold all the momentum of the tens of thousands of troops under his command in his hands, and then turn them into a force to destroy everything, and violently release them, so that all the Han troops that appeared in front of him would be reduced to ashes.
However, there is more than enough heart! The majestic Hun king now doesn't even have the courage to pull out the golden sword under his side. Feeling the sharp edge of the hair-blowing blade gently moving back and forth on the back of his neck, the fear in his heart was rising little by little. It turns out that the unknown taste of waiting for death is so terrifying!
"Y-What do you want? You Han people, don't think that if you hold this king hostage, you will be able to achieve your own goals! Look at it, in front of these tens of thousands of grassland warriors...... Even if you kill me, you won't be able to escape! ”
Even though he was very scared in his heart, the Evil King forced himself not to show a little cowardice in his tone. In front of all the grassland warriors, the dignity of the king must not be lost!
After a moment's effort, it was passed down from far and near, and most of the soldiers in the Hun army already knew what was happening. A Han Chinese assassin appeared in the Chinese army and took control of the two princes. For a while, there was an uproar, and there was a commotion. The Xiongnu generals led by them shouted desperately loudly, and no one was allowed to act rashly until they received further royal orders. After all, the lives of the princes are important, and once they anger the assassins of the Han army, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The blade seemed to have deliberately swept over the ears of the Evil King, and he felt it on his back. Hearing the young voice, he sneered, and said lightly in a nonchalant tone.
"Don't worry, as long as you are sensible, it will not hurt your life. But if you feel that your neck is hard and you can resist the knife, it is difficult to say that it is tight! Oh, Evil King, what do you think? ”
The knife finally came down on the Evil King's shoulder, and it seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight on it. The king of the grassland felt that his breath was not smooth, his heart was beating faster, and he didn't know if it was the psychological effect or the oppression of his strength, he gasped a few times, and was a little speechless.
The elite cavalry of the Chinese army nearby had already opened their bows and scimitars to each other, and they all glared angrily. However, there were thousands of troops and horses in the air, and for a while, there was no way to rescue his own prince from the sword of the Han people.
The King of Hugh, who was less than a foot away, actually wanted to jump out of this place of death on a prancing horse. But he knew very well in his heart that with the man's killing methods just now, he would not be able to escape. So he wisely chose to wait and see what happened, and did not make any radical moves.
Rat-throwing bogey! Although the barbarian warriors with well-developed limbs and simple minds have never heard such a vivid word, they still understand the truth in it. That's the situation. The lives of the two princes are at stake, and no one dares to act rashly.
"Who the hell are you! Nameless rats, don't you even dare to report your name if you do such an act? Hum! ”
King Hutu saw that the face of the evil king was ugly, and he couldn't help but ask angrily, although he did not lose the majesty of the king, but it was obvious that he was stubble.
The sky is high and the earth is wide, the yellow desert desert, thousands of rides, and the hero is alone! Such characters do not only exist in legends, the Spring and Autumn Festival is not far away, and the soul of China should be eternal!
"I'm from Chang'an, and my name is Yuanzhao." The young man's voice was not high, but everyone near and far could hear it clearly.
Although the Evil King couldn't see the people behind him, he could already clearly feel the changes in the emotions of the people around him. Not only them, but even he felt his body shake involuntarily, and then an inexplicable emotion prompted him to look back and see what this world-famous person looked like even if he was stabbed to death by the enemy behind him.
The people that the Evil King looked back with a mortal heart did not look like a fierce god, nor did he look like a great enemy in a circle. It is hard to imagine that the person who exuded an incomparable momentum at the previous moment was facing the shocked gaze of the Evil King at this moment, and he was looking at him with a teasing smile.
Like an ancient strong wind crossing the Qilian Mountains, the vast river surging across the plateau meadows. In the ears of these Huns, they have naturally heard the heroic legend of the newly rising Han Dynasty!
In the sound of gasping cold air, before the Evil King could say anything, King Hutu had already shouted loudly.
"What? You are Yuan Zhao! Okay, you came just in time, you slashed the revenge of King Zuo Xian at the beginning, and today you have to take revenge! I'm going to kill you! ”
It turned out that King Hutu and King Zuo Xian had a very close relationship with each other, and they were originally allies of each other. Unexpectedly, he died early in the prime of life and died under Yuan Zhao's knife. When the enemy meets today, he is naturally very red-eyed.
"Huh! Hugh Tu King, there are too many people who want to kill me, you need to queue up! However, I don't think you have that opportunity anymore. Because, you're going to die first. Your hands are stained with the blood of the Red Fire soldiers, so you must not be kept. ”
Yuan Zhao casually pointed at the thunderous King Hutu with his hand, and then patted the shoulder of the Evil King with the back of his knife.
"Go and kill your former good brother with your own hands! This is your only chance to live. ”
The Evil King thought that his ears had misheard, and he involuntarily asked a rhetorical question.
"You...... What did you say? Kill whom? ”
"With the knife in your hand, kill the king of Hugh Tu, right now! Understood?"
"Bastard! Who do you think of us prairie boys? Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated. Betraying your brother for your own life is something that only you Han can do! We, the Huns, never disdained it. ”
The Evil King was furious, and he and King Hutu glanced at each other, and they both saw the resoluteness in each other's eyes. Not only them, but also the Hun soldiers under them were also angry. This guy named Yuan Zhao really has evil intentions, and he actually wants to use this method to sow discord between the grassland tribes. It's really wishful thinking, and I have misseen what kind of people the steppe warriors are!
Unexpectedly, seeing their attitude, Yuan Zhao just shook his head disapprehantly. He said it again to the Evil King and his men.
"King Hutu and the total of more than 1,000 people he brought with him must die today. But I wish they died at your hands. For it is only when you do this that you can save your own lives...... And the future of your tribe. ”
"Hugh said more! Yuanzhao Xiao'er, if you have the ability, you will let us go, and have a real battle of swords and guns, then it can be regarded as a hero! ”
"Evil King, you will do as I say...... Oh, there are some things I forgot to tell you. Hehe! Your tribe, look what's over there! ”
