Chapter 493: Good News Comes (Second Update)
In fact, after Han Xin entered the city with the cavalry, he discovered the characteristics of the city of the Mauryan Empire, when he first entered the city, the streets were very spacious, but there were some low houses around, and he knew at a glance that this must not be inhabited by powerful people.
Later, as I walked inside, I was able to find some sergeants wearing armor, and Han Xin was not ambiguous, so he directly ordered, those who did not resist would not be killed, and those who resisted and those who wore armor and held weapons must all be killed.
With this killing, many people began to run, and almost all of them ran in the direction of a tall building, Han Xin knew at a glance that the people in charge of the city estimated that they were here, so he took a large army and began to go there.
Along the way, although they also suffered resistance from some Mauryan soldiers, they did not suffer any losses to the cavalry of Great Qin and Xiongnu in the end, because they were too weak......
"General, that tall building should be where the county temple of this city is located, and there is a team of people in it who are preparing to break through, it should be the county commander or county guard of this city, should we arrest it back?"
Because the words of these Mauryan Dynasty soldiers were like bird calls in the ears of the Great Qin soldiers, they could only rely on their own guesses, and then tell Han Xin the results of their guesses.
"The leader of this city...... Tell the soldiers outside the city that it's okay if they want to break out, but don't let them take it too easy, someone always has to send the news from here to the capital of the Mauryan Empire, right? ”
Han Xincai doesn't care if he is an official or not, for him, they are all people who can only speak a little bird language, there is no difference, he knows that by this time, this city is already in his bag, and before dawn, he can completely control it.
The only thing that is a little troublesome is to wait until the people in the city wake up and find that the entire city has changed hands, I don't know what it is, Han Xin doesn't want them to be too aggressive, because their radical behavior means that they have to cause a lot of killings here, and they have caused a lot of killings here, which means that the difficulty of work will be greatly increased after the intellectuals come.
"Go and inform Xiang Yu Shan Yu that you can lead the army to come, and also, after the team of people and horses who broke through the siege go out, don't let anyone out of the city, the arrow tower outside the city, I have to make good use of it, there must be someone in every arrow tower, and the good student will observe the surrounding situation, and report back immediately if there is a change!"
By the time Han Xin led the army to the City Lord's Mansion, it was already in chaos, and many guys dressed as servants wanted to run out, obviously knowing the changes in the city.
For these unstable elements, Han Xin naturally arrested them all, he knew that these people who had been working in the mansions of high-ranking officials in the city for a long time must be people who knew a lot of news, these people could not be killed, they had to wait for those scholars to communicate well after they arrived, and see if they could get any news that they were interested in Xiang Yu.
After entering the City Lord's Mansion, Han Xin didn't dare to delay, he directly found a place, first ordered a letter, and sent someone to send it to Lu Jiana, of course, in the end, this letter was to be sent to Xianyang City, because the road would only get farther and farther, so Han Xin adopted the method of intensive transmission of news, so that once Yinggao had any new instructions in Xianyang City, it was still possible to pass them on before he and Xiang Yu made the next big move.
"What? How easily did you take that city? ”
When Xiang Yu learned the news, his face showed a look of surprise, after Han Xin set off, he also thought of many possibilities in his heart, he knew that once he encountered very strong resistance in such a city, then it would mean that the soldiers of the Peacock Dynasty were very strong in combat, so when their real elite arrived, he and Han Xin would be very difficult to fight.
But if this is the case, Xiang Yu's heart is obviously greatly relieved, the lack of combat effectiveness can only show that the entire Peacock Dynasty is not very concerned about military training, so that the opportunity for him and Han Xin is very big.
And just before receiving Han Xin's letter, Yinggao sent a group of young and strong scholars who were all in place, seeing this scene, Xiang Yu couldn't help but admire Yinggao's foresight a little, such an operation, how much foresight does it take to do it!
This time, these scholars selected by Lu Jia took into account each school, and before leaving, he had told them that this trip represented Great Qin at best, and their own school at worst.
And once again emphasized the purpose of their visit, that is, to understand the language of the Peacock Dynasty as soon as possible, if anyone can understand this matter as quickly as possible, it will be a great credit to Great Qin.
Although these scholars have a feeling in their hearts that they seem to have been fooled by the emperor of Great Qin, they also know that since they have arrived at such a place where birds don't, if they don't work hard, it is estimated that they will not have a good life, after all, these people who were brought over by Yinggao are very young, and they still have a lot of possibilities in the second half of their lives, and they must not let their years of hard work be wasted because of such an incident.
And when they crossed the mountain range, they saw that they were greeted by the cavalry of the Huns, although the leader of the Huns, Xiang Yu, was originally a native of the Central Plains, but it was obviously not a trivial matter to be able to let Daqin and the Huns cooperate to do something, especially when they heard that Han Xin, the general of Daqin, had led a group of men and horses to capture a city of considerable scale, and these scholars were quite proud in their hearts, and they had already learned a thing or two about the language of the Peacock Dynasty through the two people who were caught by Han Xin before.
But because those two people have been questioned by Xiang Yu, and the status of the two of them in the Peacock Dynasty is not very high, so in the eyes of these scholars in Daqin, it is better to wait until they enter the city and find some local readers, after all, such people can be smarter and have more knowledge in their heads.
Xiang Yu took the remaining 70,000 horses and the grain and grass of the army, and drove directly in the direction of the city under the leadership of the people sent by Han Xin.
In such a situation, they only knew how to flee for their lives, and most of them didn't even know where the royal city of the Mauryan Dynasty was, even if they saw that another army had gone to that city, they probably didn't even know how many people there were, and they wouldn't go to the royal city to inform the emperor of the Mauryan Dynasty about this.
It took a day for Xiang Yu to arrive in that city and join Han Xin. Seeing this city from afar, Xiang Yu's heart was already very surging, because the scale of this city was much larger than he had imagined, such a city became in the bag of him and Han Xin, and many subsequent things could be carried out.
"Shan Yu, with such a city, plus the 100,000 cavalry under my command, if the army of the Mauryan Dynasty comes, it will be enough to teach them a lesson!"
After Xiang Yu entered the city, Han Xin's first sentence was like this, because in the two days of waiting for Xiang Yu, Han Xin did a certain amount of research on this city, and found a lot of things that were very beneficial to himself and Xiang Yu.
It turned out that in this city, Han Xin found an armory that was not small, enough to equip 20,000 people, but it seemed that the armory had not been taken care of for at least a year or two, and many armors and weapons had been rusted.
But Han Xin's purpose in discovering this matter was not to allow himself and Xiang Yu to use this armory, but to study the weapons of the Mauryan Dynasty very thoroughly through the weapons in it.
As soon as possible, Han Xin dragged Xiang Yu to the armory, in order to deal with the enemy army who didn't know how long it would take to get here, they had to know themselves and their opponents.
At the same time, after those scholars arrived in the city, Han Xin sent someone to take them to a room, which was full of people from the Peacock Dynasty, but they were all trembling and urinating, and they were very frightened at first sight.
These people have a common characteristic, that is, when Han Xin rushed to the City Lord's Mansion, they were all ready to run out, and judging from the clothes of these people, they must have a certain status in the Peacock Dynasty, such people are the people Han Xin wants to focus on, and these people basically must have a certain amount of insight and knowledge, so Han Xin has long decided to use these people as the breakthrough objects of these scholars, if these people don't understand at all, Those who are the leaders of various schools of thought will not play a big role in this.
At this time, the people in this city have realized that their city has been conquered by a large group of foreign cavalry, and the city lord who is usually powerful and prosperous does not know where to go.
But after these two days of observation, these people also know one thing, that is, as long as they don't go out of the city and don't deliberately look for trouble, these soldiers with bright armor and sharp weapons will not be difficult for them, and they have no intention of slaughtering the city, let alone letting them be slaves.
Han Xin and Xiang Yu didn't expect that the people of the Peacock Dynasty would be so cowardly, if it was Daqin, seeing that their city was occupied by aliens who didn't know where they came from, the civil armed forces would soon appear, and then fight to the death with the invaders, but since Xiang Hanxin occupied the city, such a thing really hasn't happened once.
Of course, they didn't know that what led to such a scene was nothing more than the caste system and strict hierarchy that had long been ingrained in the Mauryan Empire.
At a time when the city was undergoing the greatest change in history, the city lord who had barely rushed out with a few of his own guards finally arrived at Hua's City, the royal city of the Mauryan Dynasty.
Hearing that this person is coming, the relics are also a little confused, it stands to reason that these city lords live well in their own cities, not special religious days or have their own summons, they should not come directly, and the relics are also very clear in their hearts, even if they are summoned, these city lords are also grinding and unwilling to come here, and even some remote ones will shirk that they are ill or other reasons and do not want to come to see themselves, It's rare to come over on your own initiative.
Although it is rare, the city lord is still a very high-status existence in the Peacock Dynasty, and the relics naturally summoned him to him as soon as possible.
Who knew that this person not only came in with an uncharacteristically gray face, but also burst into tears when he saw the relics, as if his whole family had been killed.
"What do you mean by that? When something happens, he says, why is it like this, how can the position of the lord of the city be held by a person like you? ”
Sheri was a fierce man, and he couldn't see the cowardice of the people under his command, so he waved his hand in annoyance, and motioned for the city lord to put away his appearance.
"Monarch, please come to your rescue, my city was breached by a team of foreign cavalry a few days ago, and all the soldiers defending the city were wiped out, if I hadn't escaped desperately, I'm afraid this news wouldn't have been delivered here!"
"Is there such a thing? Your city is in the most remote part of my Mauryan Empire, who can go around your city and attack without the other cities knowing, and what is the use of him attacking your city? ”
Although the relics are tyrannical, they still know the basic common sense, and in his opinion, this matter is really a bit too bizarre.
"I never thought of this, otherwise how could I suffer such a fiasco, but fortunately, I secretly observed, and found that the team of men and horses only had twenty or thirty thousand cavalry, and there was no one else, and I didn't see anything unusual on the way to the royal city, although these cavalry didn't know where they came from, and their combat effectiveness was very strong, but if the elite soldiers of my Peacock Dynasty could be dispatched, it would not be a problem to defeat them."
According to the rules of the game of the Mauryan Dynasty, if this city is taken back, he is still the city lord of this city, but if this city cannot be taken back, his position will be a little awkward.
When he heard the words of the city lord, he frowned slightly, obviously, he had other ideas.
