Chapter 131: The Wealth of Akiti Castle
The sound of war drums spread far away in the wilderness of the night, and the allied soldiers woke up in their sleep, and the soldiers on duty at night also shook their spirits, and when they saw the dark crowd in the distance, they screamed loudly: "Enemy attack!" ”
Seeing that he was revealed, Qiang Mo no longer hid his whereabouts, and ordered the whole army to charge. After a great battle, the coalition army was already less than 30,000 people, and in a panic, they rushed to the battle, and were killed and wounded by the Wusun people.Ω No matter how much the Qiuzi people still have a wooden fence to protect them, of course the Wusun people will not be stupid enough to attack them. Yan Xing found Bai Li and told Liu Ye what he requested, and Bai Li happily gave ten soldiers who could speak Wusun dialect.
Liu Ye saw that Yan Xing had brought people here, and immediately ordered, "Zilong, Meng Qi, lead an army of 20,000 to pretend to be a defeated pawn of Wusun, and deceive the gate of Wusun Chigu City and take it; Yan Xing, you and I will lead 30,000 troops to block the back road of Wusun. The rest of the men and horses should guard the gate of the fortress and not let the enemy come near. ”
The three of them received the order and immediately arranged, Liu Ye changed into armor, and went out of Dazhai with Yan Xing, blocking the retreat of the Wusun people.
Zhao Yun and Ma deliberately scattered the team, and 20,000 horses and horses carried more than 1,000 torches, and Hu rumbling came to the outside of Chigu City. The soldiers of Qiuzi were told what to do on the road as early as possible, and immediately shouted to the city: "Our army has been ambushed by the enemy, open the city gate quickly!" ”
The Wusun guard said loudly: "Where is the king? ”
Zhao Yun's heart sank, could it be that King Wusun personally led the troops to sneak attack, but he didn't expect that if General Wusun insisted on letting King Wusun show up, the plan for a sneak attack would be in vain. Zhao Yun asked the interpreter to tell the Guizi soldiers that the king was behind to resist the pursuers. The Guizi soldier said, the city guard laughed, a rain of arrows shot over, and the shout of the guard came from the city: "My Wusun soldiers have always been proud to protect the king, you actually said that the king is blocking the pursuing soldiers, why is it not the enemy army?" ”
Zhao Yun immediately changed his plan, beckoned his men and horses to go back, and intercepted King Wusun.
Seeing that Zhao Yun had returned in vain, Liu Ye knew that he had not thought it through, so he said to Zhao Yun and Ma: "Since King Wusun is leading the troops, he will definitely not come back tonight." ”
Qiang Momi slaughtered for a while, seeing that it was difficult to win, and was afraid that the Han army would come to help, so he had to retreat. Suddenly, the fire in front of him was bright, and tens of thousands of Han soldiers were killed, and they were so frightened that they commanded men and horses to form a queue and rushed towards the Han army. In the firelight, Qiang Momi's face is hideous, and there are elite soldiers and strong generals all around, which can be seen at a glance. Zhao Yunqi couldn't steal the city, and when he saw the strong Mo Mo in the crowd, he jumped his horse and raised his gun, and took the lead in killing.
The strong guards swarmed forward and resisted Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun danced with a big gun, single-handedly grabbed the enemy's throat, and killed more than ten people in a row in the blink of an eye. The cavalry behind him rushed over and scattered the rest of the guards. Qiang Momi didn't expect that in a few breaths, his personal guards were killed and wounded, and he fled with the war horse under his crotch. Zhao Yun stretched his bow and took an arrow, and shot an arrow, which was strong in the back. Qiang Momi screamed, lay on the saddle, not knowing life and death, Zhao Yun hit the horse and chased after him. Qiang Mo Mo couldn't control the war horse, so he naturally slowed down, Zhao Yun rushed to the front, leaned over and grabbed the reins of the horse, the horse man stood up, and Qiang Mo Mo fell to the ground.
Zhao Yun saw that King Wusun was in his hand, found Liu Ye, said a few words, turned around and came to Chigu City with the original men and horses. In the firelight, Qiang Momi's eyes were closed, listless. The guard saw that it was his own king, and hurriedly ordered the city gate to be opened, Zhao Yun gestured to the horse, the horse understood, did not wait for the gate to open, urged the horse to enter, shook the big gun, killed the city gate guards, and the cavalry behind him swarmed into the city.
Only then did the defender realize that the bad dish was bad, but he was deceived by the enemy to open the city gate, and hurriedly ordered someone to blow the horn, summon troops, and come to surround it.
Zhao Yun said to a small colonel: "Tie up King Wusun and send him to our army's camp to be strictly guarded." After speaking, he led the troops into the city.
Liu Ye defeated the remnants of the army, led the men and horses to support, and when he saw Zhao Yun successfully entering the city, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and ordered Yan Xing to help Zhao Yun.
The Wusun army and the Han army crowded the streets, fighting each other. Seeing this, Zhao Yun ordered the soldiers of the rear team to climb over the houses on both sides, condescendingly, and shoot fiercely with their crossbows. Soon Yan Xing arrived, Zhao Yun was overjoyed, and ordered Yan Xing to go around to the rear of the enemy army and attack back and forth.
The remaining 20,000 horses in Akatani Castle may be able to support it for a while, and now that the two armies meet, of course, the brave wins. The horse is in Xiliang, and people say that his courage is not under Lu Bu, but it is conceivable that the force has also reached the height of the peak. The horse led his own guards to kill in the forefront, and the layers of men and horses in front made the war horse unable to charge, and the horse rose to strength, with a gun in his right hand, a sword in his left hand, and a bow from left to right. The Han soldiers on the roofs on both sides, the arrows were specially aimed at the enemy's dense places, and the Wusun soldiers were suddenly in chaos, and the army had no heart to fight, and those who could climb the wall ran over the wall, and those who could not climb found a dark corner and hid.
Yan Xing went around to the rear and began to attack, the Wusun men and horses began to despair, and many soldiers simply lay on the side of the road and pretended to be dead where the war horses could not trample on them. Seeing the chaos in the rear of the enemy army, Ma saw Yan Xing fighting from afar, his heart was ecstatic, shouting for a fierce battle, and the two roads of men and horses converged together in blood.
Akaya Castle fell, Qiang Momi was captured, and almost all of Wusun's main forces were annihilated, and they have been in a state of collapse ever since.
Liu Ye, accompanied by Zhao Yun, entered the palace. For more than ten years, the family has been dominant, collecting countless rare treasures, and the palace has been built luxuriously. When they came to the strong treasury, the bright treasure almost blinded everyone's eyes.
After this battle, the Six-Nation Alliance Army had 30,000 horses, and less than half of them remained, and its strength was greatly reduced. Bai Li's men and horses lost the least, which made Bai Li grateful to Liu Ye and admired.
Liu Ye thought of Liu Ze's meaning, and after stabilizing the Western Regions, he used it as a base to expand westward. In the west, there are big countries such as Kangju and Dawan, and in the southwest, there are also countries such as Guishan, Dayueshi, and Tianzhu. Thinking that he could assist Liu Ze and expand the territory for the Han Dynasty, he was excited. It's just that the Western Regions are vast, but the population is pitiful, and the land can be obtained through war, and the population will really not be in a hurry for a while. It seems that the imperial court can only find a way.
How to stabilize the Western Regions and control the six countries to become bigger, Liu Ye exhausted and killed many brain cells. After thinking about it, Liu Ye decided to let Zhao Yun garrison the Changshi Mansion and Yan Xing garrison the Wuji Lieutenant Department. Liu Ye and Ma were stationed at Chigu Castle. Due to the language barrier, the people of Wusun were temporarily put under the management of Baili, the king of Qiuzi.
The Six Kingdoms were busy for a while, and Liu Ye sent some of the goods to each king, so that they were satisfied. Liu Ye is in Chigu City, so the center of gravity of the Western Regions is naturally tilted here. Bai Li has both things and people, of course, he can't close his mouth when he smiles, and he has a hundred supports for Liu Ye.
Liu Ye wrote a good note, described in detail the process of pacifying Wusun, and wrote down his own thoughts, sent a partial general, loaded the things in the treasury of the Wusun Palace, led 5,000 people and horses, returned to the mainland, and wrote to the emperor.
Zhou Yu was in good condition and was in a happy mood, Lu Su came to visit, looked at Zhou Yu with a red face, and was happy for his old friend in his heart, and said with a smile: "Gongjin recovered, congratulations." At present, Yangzhou is stable, and Jiaozhou Shixie has also been called a minister, but the Shi family has been in Jiaozhou for several generations, and the foundation is solid, and the emperor is worried that he is not sincere, and wants to let Gongjin be the Taishou of Nanhai County and test Shixie. ”
"Jiaozhou is adjacent to Yi, Jing and Yang in the north, and now the three states of the Han Emperor are all decided, no matter where the troops are dispatched, Shixie will undoubtedly be defeated. It's just that Shi Xie didn't see through the world, so he resigned and went into seclusion or served in the imperial court, with the heart of Emperor An Han, the Shi family could also stay rich and noble for a long time. ”
"Exactly, Shi Xie is a minister on the surface and firmly holds the power of Jiaozhou, no wonder the emperor is suspicious of him. I don't know if Gongjin is willing to be a little too shou for a county? ”
"Haha, Zijing, if I go, how can I be too guarded by a county?"
"Gong Jin is talented, and he really guessed the emperor's thoughts. The emperor's meaning, if Shixie cooperates, Gongjin will build a military port in Panyu Bay, and then send troops to Yizhou and Zhuyazhou, occupy the two islands, and vigorously display the naval army. If you are unwilling to cooperate, with Gongjin's talent, the post of Jiaozhou Assassin is in the palm of your hand. ”
Zhou Yu said: "It is rare that the Han Emperor has a deep affection and righteousness, and he travels thousands of miles to treat my illness, but this favor always has to be repaid." Okay, I'll go to serve as the county guard of Nanhai and fight with Shixie. ”
"I wonder how many people Gongjin needs? Who is the general? ”
Zhou Yu rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "What does Emperor Han mean?" ”
Lu Su pushed Zhou Yu, pointed at Zhou Yu and said, "Don't think so badly about the emperor. The emperor often said that there is no need to suspect people, and there is no suspicion in employing people. The emperor asked me to ask you what you mean, and let you choose generals so that you can command, and there is absolutely no intention to guard against you. ”
"Okay, count me as a villain, and spend the belly of a gentleman, okay. I think the old generals of Jiangdong are Jiang Qin and Ding Feng, and the generals of the Han army, Zhang He and Xu Huang, are both resourceful and resourceful, what about the two of them? ”
Lu Su said with a smile: "As long as you like it, the emperor will not allow it." ”
"Shixie is also in Panyu, I don't know what the result will be if I go? Haha, Zijing, the Emperor of Han actually gave me a problem. ”
"When the two strong meet, with Gongjin's talent, how can they retreat?"
Zhou Yu agreed to go out, and Liu Ze was also very happy, and immediately issued a holy decree, appointing Zhou Yu as the county guard of Nanhai, and Shi Xie's concurrent position of county guard was deprived, and he was only appointed as the assassin of Jiaozhou.
Zhou Yu decided to take only 10,000 horses and go to take office. There are too many people, and they are afraid of irritating Shixie, thinking that they intend to seize power. The 6 upper passages from Anhui County to Jiaozhou are really difficult to walk, and the north of Nanhai County is mountainous, so Zhou Yu decided to take a boat to take the post.
Zhang He, Xu Huang, Jiang Qin, and Ding Feng each led 2,500 people, and Zhou Yu was a careful person in the details, and refused to let the four of them say anything favoritism. After following the Yangtze River to the mouth of the sea, the navy warships turned south, hung sails along the seashore, and moved forward slowly.
The three-year period promised by Huang Chengyan at the beginning is almost here, and the periphery of Jixian County has already been built, but part of the palace project has not yet been completed. In the past three years, Huang Chengyan has been leaning on Jixian County, never leaving an inch, although the old man has eaten the Ten Perfection Tonic Pills every day, he also looks much older. Xia Houlan was instructed by Mr. Huang to turn around, painful and happy. Seeing that Jixian County is changing day by day, the sense of accomplishment is not something that outsiders can understand.
Liu Ze repeatedly stressed to Huang Chengyan that the scale of the palace should not be too large, otherwise it would hurt financial resources. Huang Chengyan watched Liu Ze get up step by step, and achieved such a great feat, if the palace was too shabby, wouldn't it make the world laugh? The stubborn temper came up, imitating the pattern of the Luoyang Palace, and more than doubled. Otherwise, Jixian County should have been completed a long time ago.
On this day, the imperial city was finally completed, and Huang Chengyan was proud in his heart, drinking burning knives, riding a horse, and checking back and forth. I saw that the palace was lined up, scattered, the vestibule and the harem, the layout was rigorous, highlighting the majestic achievements of the Han Dynasty. The more I watched, the happier I became, and I didn't feel drunk.
