Chapter 51: The aftermath of the war

The Huns retreated, walking very embarrassed, abandoning all the baggage and herds of the army, except for the war horses they were riding, they threw everything they could, including the seriously wounded who could not be taken away in the camp, but before leaving, each wounded made up a knife, which saved Xiao Yi a lot of hands and feet, and died in the hands of his own people, maybe there will be less resentment!

Xiao Yi wasn't sure if he shot the arrow to kill 'Yu Fuluo', the scene at that time was too panicked, otherwise he would definitely make up a few more arrows, but these are no longer important, the important thing is that he won the battle, guarded the Yanmen Pass, and avoided the people in the mainland from being ravaged by the Huns' iron cavalry, which is enough.

The entire Yanmen Pass has fallen into a sea of carnival, some people look up to the sky and shout, some people cry bitterly, some people kneel on the ground and desperately thank the gods for their protection, and some people can't wait to look around for the loot. As for Xiao Yi's name, it has been shouted by people again and again, and all the soldiers and people have already regarded him as everyone's patron saint, and some of the elders in the city have begun to propose to set up a shrine for Xiao Yi in Yanmen Pass, which is located on the edge of Chiyou Temple, and put him and the demon god of the world side by side!

As for what our protagonist Xiao Yat is doing?

Answer: He is sleeping, he doesn't care about anything, he sleeps beautifully, from the thrilling grassland to the bloody battle in Yanmen, he has been wandering on the line of life and death for more than a month, living in conspiracy and calculation every day, Xiao Yi is really exhausted, people only see his vertical and horizontal side, but forget that he is also a human being, and he is only a seventeen-year-old boy, and now that the strong enemy has been defeated and retreated, he can finally take a rest!

Boundless fatigue surging in, the armor did not take off, Xiao Yi fell asleep directly on a city wall battlement, and his own soldiers spontaneously surrounded a human wall for him, the chief of the guard, Xiao Bin, held a sword in his hand and carefully guarded it, everyone who cleaned the battlefield was light-handed, and even the wounded soldiers who were carried down used sackcloth to plug their mouths with sackcloth, for fear of disturbing the 'guardian saint' in their hearts.

Xiao Yi slept very sweetly this night, in the dream he returned to the small Taoist temple on Wohu Mountain, there were many people around him, there were the old pavilion chief of the Crouching Tiger Pavilion, the old fisherman who always gave him fish, and the little Loli who liked to chase him to play, they still called themselves 'Brother Wuwu' so sweetly...... everyone stretched out their thumbs to him, praised him for doing a good job, and avenged the villagers of the Crouching Tiger Pavilion!

In the end, Xiao Yi also dreamed that his master was 'out of the dust', Lao Dao was still so energetic, and he looked like a fairy, but his eyes were very strange when he looked at Xiao Yi, there was kindness, admiration, but there was also a trace of blame......

"Are you blaming yourself for killing too much? Master, I don't want to, but if I don't kill people, people will kill me, I just want to live well and protect the people around me, so I have to keep killing, the sword is stained with blood, and I can't take it back......", Xiao Yi in the dream desperately explained to Lao Dao, but Lao Dao didn't say a word, just pointed to Xiao Yi's eyebrows, where there is a little clarity left by Lao Dao, and the sky does not kill!

The dream is short, and after waking up, you still have to face the cruel reality, as soon as Xiao Yi woke up, he saw Da Niu, Ma Liu, Fat Liu, and the eldest of the four brothers in Yanmen, Zhang Zhuan, the second Yang He was standing in front of him, everyone was injured, many people's wounds were still cracked, and the blood and armor that flowed out were glued together, it looked like a group of evil ghosts who ran out of hell, Xiao Yi knew that his current appearance was probably not as good as these people, if they were evil ghosts, then he was the king of all ghosts!

"Lord Commander, the fourth elder of my family was seriously injured and didn't survive, two hours ago, it was gone!" The eldest of the four brothers in Yanmen turned his face with sadness, the four brothers formed a joint name, and now they have broken two, the dead sleep forever, and the living have long pain, "But before the fourth brother died, let me bring a message to the adult, he said that he was fortunate to follow the commander in this life, it was worth it!" ”

"It's worth it! …… Is it worth it? Looking at the overlapping bones of the dead soldiers on the city tower, looking at a pair of dead eyes, Xiao Yi couldn't help but feel sad, how many good brothers were splashed on the battlefield with blood, and they would never see each other again, and they were all pushed onto the battlefield by themselves, "I'm sorry for everyone, I'm sorry for the dead brothers!" ”

"I'm going to follow the Commander to the death! …… Swear to follow the Commander-in-Chief! "Da Niu, Ma Liu, Fat Liu, and up and down the city pass, countless soldiers who escaped death fell to their knees and shouted in unison, it is indeed worth it to have such a commander leading them!

After the first battle, the Xuanjia army lost thousands of people, the rest of the troops died more than 3,000, the people in the city also killed and wounded more than 2,000 people, the loss of a full 6,000 people, the price can be described as heavy, and what they got in exchange for is the mountain of Hun soldiers outside the Yanmen Pass, according to statistics, more than 15,000 bodies, plus many Hun wounded will slowly die on the way to retreat, conservative estimates, this battle, the Huns at least 20,000 soldiers, with the Huns' pitiful population base, it can be said that it is broken, Without ten years of recuperation, these steppe wolves will not recover.

After the war, there is often a big epidemic, this is common knowledge that everyone knows, so the corpses of these fallen must be disposed of immediately, once the plague is really caused, it will be troublesome, for the bones of their own soldiers is naturally to build a coffin, then a piece of feng shui treasure, good life and burial, in addition, Xiao Yi also ordered to build an altar here for the fallen soldiers, and engrave the name of each fallen soldier, they are ghosts who sacrificed their lives for the country, and they should enjoy the incense sacrifice of future generations!

As for the bones of those Huns, they were not treated so well, Xiao Yi directly ordered to build a 'Jingguan!' ’

Jingguan, also known as the martial army, is to pile the bones of the dead enemy together, cover the outside with sealed soil, and tamp it to form a king-sized mound; This custom has existed in ancient China, during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, one of the five hegemons, King Chuzhuang, after defeating the old enemy Jin State, once 'collected the corpse of Jin and built it as a Jingguan', in order to show martial arts in eternity.

Now Xiao Ye also decided to use the bones of the Huns to cast a 'Jingguan' to show his martial arts, one is to avenge the people of the 'Crouching Tiger Pavilion', and the other is to teach those Huns on the grassland a lesson, Xiao Yi believes that with this 'Jingguan', the Huns will not dare to set foot in Yanmen Pass for at least 30 years!

At the sound of the order, the people below immediately heard the wind and moved. Jingguan's all showed great enthusiasm, especially those who had relatives and friends who died in this battle, but also raised their hands and feet in favor, and finally people began to start construction in a very eye-catching place in the north of Yanmen Pass, a car of bones pulled over, there are special people responsible for ramming earth, a layer of bones, a layer of loess, overlapping, no one knows how many layers have fallen, and finally appeared in front of everyone is a high more than 20 zhang, a huge 'Jingguan' with a radius of one mile, eye-catching, spectacular, moving!

After dealing with the dead, you have to take care of the living, this war has captured countless cattle and sheep, horses, for these spoils, Xiao Yi ordered, all the war horses are returned to the army for use, as for those cattle and sheep, and some disabled, can no longer be used in the war horses, all distributed to the people of Yanmen, this battle many people's homes were destroyed in the war, now give them some cattle and sheep, it can be regarded as compensation!

War will always be a general's paradise and a people's hell!

As soon as he dealt with these things, Xiao Yi greeted two messengers, one was sent by Zhang Yang, the assassin of Bingzhou, and brought an order, "Let Xiao Yi be sure to hold the Yanmen Pass for ten days, and after ten days, if you really can't hold it, you can act cheaply!" ”

It seems that this Lord Zhang does not think that Xiao Yi can block the Hun army going south, ten days, it is estimated that it is used to clear the wilderness, or run away, but this order is quite kind, the so-called cheap action, is to tell Xiao Yi that if you can keep it, you can keep it, and if you can't keep it, run away quickly!

Xiao Yi just smiled at this 'Derby' assassin Shi master, and then asked people to take the envoy outside the city, where the 'Jingguan' stood can explain everything, as for how to marvel after the publicity, how to write a congratulatory table to the imperial court, it is not something he cares about!

As for the other messenger, it was sent by Li Yun, the 'Right School King', and also brought Xiao Yi a piece of news, "The Xiongnu Dadan Yu-Yufuluo is dead."

Although Xiao Yi's arrow was not killed on the spot, it still hit him hard, especially the bloodletting function of the 'three-edged armor cone', which was absolutely unparalleled in the world, and as a result, 'Yu Fuluo' was angry and injured on the way to retreat, and died of excessive blood loss before returning to the Xiongnu royal court;

In this Han-Hungarian war, all the Xiongnu departments suffered heavy losses, but Li Yun, the king of the right colonel, not only did not have a single soldier killed or wounded, on the way to the retreat of the army, this old fox also took the opportunity to annex some of the defeated Xingsan tribes, and his power rose sharply, he sent a messenger to see Xiao Yi, one is to report the news, and the other is to hope to get help, and exchange some materials with the horses on the grassland and Xiao Yi, such as iron blades, armor and salt!

"Huh! The old fox has ambitions! "Xiao Yi is such a smart character, how can he not see through Li Yun's thoughts, but this is fine, Ding is stable because he has three legs, and it is difficult to unify the strength divided into three strands, if he supports Li Yun, the king of the right school, and let him form a strong momentum with Liu Bao, the king of the left sage, and the king of the right sage, 'Hu Chuquan', then it can be expected that there will be endless battles on the grassland for at least twenty years, which is better for the Han Dynasty.

Just after dealing with the matter of the messenger here, the soldiers over there came to report, saying that the 'Jingguan' had an accident, the specific thing is - haunted, it turns out that since the 'Jingguan' was built, according to some nearby people, there are ghosts crying wolves every night, and there are thousands of horses galloping shouting to kill, so that the surrounding people are not in peace, and even children are scared of illness.

Xiao Yi ordered again, in the style of his 'Blood Wave Chopping Jiao Sword', he selected skilled craftsmen to carve a sword-shaped stele with a height of two zhang and a width of five feet, which was inserted upside down in front of the 'Jingguan', and there was a line of big characters written by Xiao Yi himself - Yongzhen Jiuyou!

At this point, the haunting of the ghosts is gone!
