Chapter 222: Attracting the Enemy
Walking out of the door and taking a few deep breaths of the blood-smelling air, Changsun Hong felt much more comfortable.
Kowloon Onde was guarding outside the door, and when he saw him come out, he arched his hand and said: "I sent a few teams of men and horses, and they went out on all sides, I don't know which direction they are going, and it is very troublesome to chase them." ”
"No matter which way he goes, just block the passage to the east and north, and don't let him meet with the Mongol brigade and force him to flee in the opposite direction." The eldest grandson Hong looked at the smoke from the fire in the city, and said slowly: "It's good to catch it, but if you can't catch it, you have to make the Mongols anxious, a Temujin grandson is missing, it's enough for Tahai to drink a pot." ”
"I'll arrange it!" Kowloon Onde nodded and walked quickly.
Changsun Hong summoned two more barbarian soldiers and asked them to tie up Yao Shu in the courtyard and take care of him, don't kill him, and don't let him commit suicide, this person will be of great use in the future.
Na Tuozhi came from a distance, covered in blood, greeted the departing Kowloon Angde, walked quickly to Changsun Hong, bowed down and asked: "Ghost King, the city has been cleaned up, a total of 345 people have been killed, and there is no alive, what should I do next, please ask the Ghost King to make it clear." ”
The eldest grandson Hongzheng regretted and was angry that Kublai Khan ran away, and after hearing this, he thought about it for a while, and said: "Cut off all the heads, build a Jingguan outside the south gate, and hang the corpses on the city wall, so that people from miles away can see it, anyway, how to make the Mongols disgusting and angry." ”
"Pack up neatly, let's go." He raised his legs and walked down the street, saying as he went: "There will soon be a large number of Mongols coming here, and we will not be able to defend this city, so we must go into the mountains and take away all the grain in the treasury of the city. ”
Na Tuozhi nodded and agreed: "Yes, you can't stay and cheapen the Mongols!" ”
……
Kublai Khan, the grandson of Temujin, who the eldest grandson Hong, was thinking about day and night, and was now trekking through a forest ten miles outside the city.
He was covered in mud, and he looked as if he had rolled in the mud for a dozen times, and one of the boots on his feet had fallen off, and he didn't know where to go, so Uliang Hatai gave him his boots.
"I've been barefoot since I was a kid, so it's okay to wear no boots." Uliang Hatai explained.
Kublai Khan did not refuse, he understood that his life was much more precious than these subordinates.
There were only fifteen people left in the entourage and guards who followed him, and the rest were scattered on the way to escape.
But these fifteen people were loyal elites, even if they were down, no one complained, and they followed Kublai Khan silently, ready to give their lives whenever needed.
The weather had cleared, the drizzle had stopped, the clouds in the sky had become thin and clear, and the sun was shining down with a warm temperature.
The air is exceptionally sober, the unique smell of plants and trees in the forest is intoxicating, and the young buds and wildflowers that bloom after the rain are purple and red, and nature carries the rain and dew and changes to new vitality.
The fleeing people had no time to appreciate this, so Kublai Khan and the others ran out of ten miles in one breath and ran into the woods before they breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking back, a few puffs of black smoke could still be seen rising into the sky from the forest trees, and under the black smoke, of course, it was the Lingjing Prison who had just escaped.
"Be careful!" Someone whispered a warning: "Someone is chasing after you!" ”
Everyone immediately bowed down and lay down on the wet mud floor, allowing the bushes and grass to cover their bodies.
Outside the forest, a group of Song soldiers on horseback hurried by, and someone approached and looked into the forest on horseback, but did not see anything, and roared away.
"Let's go, they're gone, they'll be back later, we'll follow this mountain, they won't find us." Uliang Hatai looked at the position of the sun and whispered to everyone.
Everyone got up and bent over and ran through the woods.
"Yao Shi really didn't follow?" As Kublai Khan walked, he asked unrelentingly, "Has anyone seen what's going on?" ”
Uliang Hatai walked beside him, a pair of eyes that had been looking vigilantly to the left and right, listening to his question, his expression darkened, and he replied dejectedly: "When I went out of the city, someone saw Yao Shi stop halfway up the city and turn into another street, and there was a word that he would stay, and in the name of His Highness, stick to a house and buy time for us to leave. ”
Kublai Khan was frightened, turned around, his hair was soaked with rain and sweat, strands stuck to his scalp one by one, his face was full of mud, one earring was torn off by something, his earlobe was bloody, he looked embarrassed and depressed, where was the nobility of the Mongolian prince.
But his eyes were still clear and profound, and his face was a little red from excitement, and he grabbed Wuliang Hatai's shoulders and said sharply: "Master Yao stayed in the city without authorization in order to cover us?" Why didn't you say it earlier? ”
Wuliang Hatai was caught by him and bent down, and roared in a low voice: "Your Highness, Master Yao did this, it is for His Highness to be safe, if he had told His Highness earlier, His Highness would definitely go back to save him desperately, what is the point of Master Yao's sacrifice?" ”
Kublai Khan's hand suddenly exerted force, grabbing the stainless steel chain mail of Wuliang Hatai, which crackled, Wuliang Hatai endured the pain and continued: "We, as courtiers, have long put life and death aside for the sake of His Highness, even if Master Yao doesn't do this, I will do it!" His Royal Highness must not let down Master Yao's hard work, if His Highness has the heart to avenge him, he will lead the troops as soon as possible and kill back to cut those Song soldiers! ”
Uliang Hatai said sincerely and simply, but Kublai Khan's eyes were broken, he pursed his lips, looked into Uliang Hatai's eyes, and did not speak for a while, his eyes were sad and angry.
"Your Highness...... Let's go back first!" Wuliang Hatai said sadly: "You are the grandson of Genghis Khan, a noble nobleman, a person who is protected by immortality, and you can't die here!" ”
Kublai Khan silently let go, shook his head, smiled bitterly, and turned around, only to find that everyone was quietly looking at him.
"Your Highness, we are all willing to die for you, please lead us to fight back in the future and occupy the land of the Song Kingdom! Avenge Master Yao!" Urliang Hatai was behind him, and he roared.
"Revenge! Avenge! Everyone raised their swords and roared in unison.
Kublai Khan still didn't speak, but coldly swept everyone's faces one by one, and finally fixed on Uliang Hatai's face.
"Those black-armored soldiers...... When they are fighting, what are they shouting, do you hear clearly? Kublai Khan's eyes shone fiercely and asked.
"What he shouted was: Shimen Fan is invincible." Wuliang Hatai said, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly came to his senses: "It's Dali soldiers!" ”
"Marble Menfan!" Kublai Khan smashed his fist on a tree beside him, shaking the leaves in the sky: "The Song State has requisitioned Dali soldiers!" I don't share it with it! ”
"I won't die here, I'm going back, asking the Great Khan for troops, going south in person, and slaughtering Dali first according to Master Yao's plan!" Exterminate the Shimen Fan clan and kill it cleanly! Kublai Khan looked at the sky fiercely in the boundless fallen leaves, raised his head and roared, his expression was like a lion who had lost his father, full of anger.
