Chapter 30: A Time of Shame
The Zhao army conquered Yuanyang City and appeared on the grassland like a divine soldier descending from heaven, and the news quickly spread across the grassland. What shocked the Hu people was when the people of the Central Plains dared to go out of the fortress and compete with the Hu people on the grassland. You must know that before this, the battle records of the Hu people and the Central Plains people, at most, were the number of casualties, but there was no precedent for the capture of the city, and the Zhao people created this record.
The herdsmen wandering around Yuanyang City began to pull up their ox carts and migrate towards Cloud City, even at this time, the abundance of water and grass near Yuanyang was almost the best time of the year. They knew very well in their hearts that they had never been forgiven for the burning, killing and looting of the cities of the Central Plains, and this time the cities were occupied by the Zhao people, how could they dare to believe that the Zhao Kingdom would treat them as well as good people? Rather than being driven and hunted down, it is better to leave first, in the clouds, there are still their own people, and when they gather together and gather under the king's banner, sooner or later there will be a day of return!
After the Zhao army occupied Yuanyang, Zhao Yong established a command system in Yuanyang, rode out in all directions, collected all kinds of news on the grassland, and naturally knew the movements of the Hu people on the grassland. Zhao Yong then ordered that all the Hu people east of the boundary should be driven out within five days with Yuanyang and Killing Hukou as the boundary, and no one should be left behind, otherwise they would be killed immediately and there would be no need to report it.
At the same time, the grain and grass hoarded by the army in Jinyang also began to be sent to Yuanyang City to alleviate the shortage of grain and grass supply for the army that had been set out for many days. Fortunately, when Yuanyang City was broken, the original 6,000 stone grain in the city could be regarded as alleviating their urgent need. It can be said that in the five or six days after Yuanyang was breached, the Zhao army had been strengthening the city and repairing defensive equipment, trying to make the city no longer change hands. However, after all, the grass is short of resources, and the scale of Yuanyang City is not large, and Zhao Jun did not bring any engineering equipment and skilled craftsmen when he went north this time, so what he can do is very limited. What Zhao Yong can do is also wait for Lou's annoying next move.
"I don't know, has Qiu Linyue spread the news that we have come to the grassland?" Niu Jian and Zhao Yong stood next to the map together and said.
Zhao Yongxin suddenly missed a beat, and then pretended to be indifferent and said: "If I had known to King Lou Fu a long time ago, the other party would have appeared on the day I attacked the city." It can be seen that we have miscalculated this time to lure the snake out of the hole. ”
On the day of the siege, in fact, the Zhao army was ready to harass King Lou Fu, but Niu Jian and Zhao Yong did not expect that Qiu Linyue's escape would speed up the pace of King Lou Fu and the Huyan Department, and it was to siege the city for many days, and there was no trace of Lou Fu's cavalry.
"Now that we have set up camp in Yuanyang, no matter how stupid Lou is, I'm afraid we won't come to attack Yuanyang. It's a shame. Niu Jian said with a little regret, and quietly glanced at Zhao Yong.
Zhao Yong didn't know in his heart, Niu Jian suspected that Qiu Linyue and Lou Furen were colluding together, so he didn't let Lou Furen jump into this trap, but Qiu Linyue and Zhao Yong had an ambiguous relationship, and some things couldn't be said directly.
"It doesn't matter, if the other party wants to rely on Cloud City to fight us, we will fulfill their wish."
After the small test of the cattle knife outside Yuanyang City, Zhao Yong's confidence in the new cavalry is getting stronger and stronger, even if the cavalry of Lou Fu is strong, he also wants to fight hard for a while, if he hits a wall here in Lou Furen, don't say anything to unify the Central Plains.
"It's okay, Yunzhong is a big city with annoying buildings, and it is also a hub connecting Lin Hu, and when you get to this place, even if the king of Lou annoys wants to retreat, his people will not agree." Niu Jian said, this is also why Zhao Yong drove all the Hu people to the west, more and more Hu people gathered in Yunzhong City, Lou Yuan became more and more useless, for the dignity of the king of Lou Fu, he must also fight Zhao Jun to the death, otherwise he will be looked down upon by the clansmen.
"yes." Zhao Yong left the map and walked to the door of the main hall, "It's been eight years since the death of the first monarch. ”
"Exactly."
Zhao Yong pushed open the door of the hall and saw that outside the main hall, the busy figures of the soldiers of the Zhao army, as well as the ethereal white clouds in the sky, "Eight years ago, the soldiers of the five countries pressed Zhao Jing, and looked around alone, there were no available soldiers or available generals, so they had to follow the advice and give the first king's favorite golden wrong knife to King Lou Fu, hoping that they would send troops to the border of Yan State, so as to force the Yan people to withdraw their troops." At the beginning, Lone once said that today is just for him to keep for the time being, and if he wants it one day, he will definitely go and get it himself. ”
Zhao Yong paused and said: "Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, and now that eight years have passed, it is time to return the things to their original owners." ”
Niu Jian looked at Zhao Yong's back and didn't know what to say for a while.
The campfire in the tent burned too brightly, and even the leg of mutton on top of it looked a little enchanting. The fat oozing from the leg of lamb, with its fragrance, seemed to hide the blood flowing outside. A scream sounded outside the tent, one after another, through the tent, you can see the heads of the figures flying, you can also see the corpses fall to the ground, after a while, the blood gathered outside the tent, gathered into a small pool of blood.
Lou Yuan sat on the top, holding a piece of sheepskin, and wiped his golden knife over and over again, even five or six times, but never put it down. Even though there was an assura field outside the tent, it had nothing to do with him. He had just experienced a battle and regained his own territory, although Chulindoa had escaped, but this had little to do with Lou Yuan, it was the Huns' own problem, what he had to do now was to enjoy this moment and grasp the glory of life and death of others.
The tents were opened, and Sui Xi stepped on the blood, and there was still a little scrap of flesh on his face, and said to Lou Yuan: "King, none of those Huns know the whereabouts of the Yan clan. ”
"Hmm," Lou Yuan nodded faintly.
"By the king's orders, the last general has killed them all. Sixty-seven people, not one remained. ”
"It's a pity, this king still values them very much, and he lost some slaves this year, just using them to fill the number, but they are obviously not convinced." Lou Yuan said in a compassionate tone.
"The Huns pretended to be high and let them betray their people, and they would not. Not to mention telling us the whereabouts of the Yan family? ”
Lou Yuan snorted coldly, in fact, he doesn't care much about women, there is no big deal if there are less, there are many women in the clan, no matter how bad it is, he can go to the Central Plains to plunder, he just likes to kill, and the rest is just an excuse.
"What about those people from the Huyan Ministry? Let's go? ”
"I'm packing my things, and it looks like I'm leaving."
This time, the two departments jointly sent troops, and the Huyan Department actually only had 2,000 people, which made Lou Yuan despised, and he wanted to find an opportunity to put a cold arrow in the battle, so that the future patriarch of the Huyan tribe would die here, so as to provoke the dispute between the two tribes of the Huns, but Huyan was not a fool, and he was guarding the camp on the side, Lou Yuan did not find a chance, so he could only give up. However, before the battle, Hu Yanba was stunned and told Qiu Linduoa that Qiu Linyue died on himself, which put aside the relationship between Lou Yuan, and believed that after this battle, the two tribes returned to the north and would provoke a dragon fight, but this had nothing to do with him Lou Yuan. As long as you send this Hun away, you can be here and continue to be the king.
The battle is actually very simple, the number of people determines success or failure, even if the soldiers of the Qiulin Department are extremely tenacious, it is difficult to resist the combined forces of the two tribes, not to mention, there is also a familiar Qiulin Department Huyan Ba stunned beside him, there is no chance of turning the tables at all, Qiulin Duoa was rescued by the clansmen, life and death are uncertain, the rest of the Huns are killed on the battlefield, even if they are injured and captured, no one survives. For this, it cannot be said that it is not admirable.
"Let's go, send them away, this king can be comfortable for a while, in a few days, go to the border of Zhao to grab something, and find a Yan clan to come back."
Hearing this, Sui Xi couldn't help but say with a smiling face: "The king not only quelled the rebellion of the Gu clan, but also eliminated the Qiulin Department of the Huns. He deliberately said that the vanguard of Qiu Lin Duoa was the entire Qiu Lin Department, which really made Lou Yuan happy. Lou Yuan glanced at him, how he didn't know what he was thinking, "You can make this great contribution this time, and you also have some credit." Rest assured, the pastures of the Drum Clan, there will be a part of you. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Sui Xi said happily, Gu's grassland is rich in water and grass, he naturally will not expect Lou Yuan to give him, he can give him a little, he is satisfied.
Just as the two were thinking about rewarding their meritorious deeds, a fast horse galloped into Lou's annoying camp, and soon, someone broke into Louyuan's tent.
"What, the people of Zhao have already attacked Yuanyang, and they have already taken it for themselves!" Lou Yuan looked at the messenger sharply and said.
"Yes." The messenger had long known that Lou Yuan's character was tyrannical, and when he saw that the outside was like a Shura field, he was already trembling, and he was even more slow to speak at this moment, "On the fourth day of the king's army, Yunzhong City received news that the people of Zhao suddenly appeared under Yuanyang City, and only a team of cavalry escaped and asked for help from Yunzhong City, but at this moment there were no soldiers to send, so they could only report to the king. ”
"Why haven't you found the shadow of Zhao Guoren for a long time! They didn't find out until they arrived in Yuanyang City! Lou Yuan roared angrily.
"This... At this time, the people of the Central Plains were generally planting in summer, and no one expected that Zhao Jun would suddenly send troops to Yuanyang. ”
"Even if they didn't know that Zhao Jun would send troops, they couldn't have reached Yuanyang so quickly! From the Gate of Infinity to Yuanyang, how can it be nearly two days away, and the Zhao army will attack Yuanyang after a long journey, wouldn't it be a dead end! ”
"It is said that the Zhao army may not have come from the east. Otherwise, our clansmen would have discovered and warned Yuan Yang a long time ago. ”
Lou Yuan suddenly woke up at this moment, it turned out that the people of Zhao Guo came from the mouth of killing the tiger, so it must have been prepared for a long time, not a sudden move.
"Careless, that yellow-mouthed kid of Zhao Guo dared to go against it! It seems that the passing year is not good! ”
Sui Xi knew that Lou Yuan's heart must be very angry at this moment, so he had never spoken, and now seeing that he was no longer speechless, he said cautiously: "King, then I'll wait..."
"Go back to Cloudsdale first, and then make a decision."
"Yes!" Sui Xi said, and walked out of the tent backwards with the visitor, and began to prepare to leave.
"That King Zhao..."Lou Yuan raised the golden knife that had been wiped a hundred times, he was stunned, and suddenly swung the knife towards several cases, and several cases were broken in response, and it was really sharp. Only this time, I'm afraid I'm going to let him wipe it for a while.
Zhuoka looked at Qiu Linyue, who was unconscious, and quickly took out the medicine prepared by Zhao Yong and put it on her. The surrounding cavalry of the Zhao State patrolled not far away, and at the first time found the enemy's traces and left. Zhuoka wiped her sweat for her, looking at Qiu Linyue's weak appearance, her face became more and more ugly, she tried to dissuade her several times without success, Qiu Linyue insisted on going north to find Qiu Linduoa. It's just that the body is getting worse and worse, and the movement is getting slower and slower.
She pulled out the kettle and shook it, it seemed that there was still a little water, but it was obviously not enough. She looked around, there was a small river not far away, she put Qiu Linyue and ran to the river. Picked up a handful of water and splashed it on her face, she suddenly felt a lot more refreshed, splashed it again, and then picked up the kettle, just about to pour some water to drink, but found that the river water suddenly turned red, just when she was puzzled, a thing suddenly appeared on the surface of the river, she took a closer look, it turned out to be a human head! She slammed to the ground, and then looked at the human head, her eyes were wide open, full of anger, the more she looked at it, the more familiar she became, it was none other than someone else, it was that day to break through the Loufu camp and prepare to ** their own Hun soldiers!
