A huge wave of blood swept through the entire city, and the terrible screams of people resounded everywhere, and the civilians who rushed out of the Western Regions did not have time to know who was coming, and they were beheaded by the galloping knights, and someone threw the torch in his hand directly into the nearest building on horseback to ignite the flames, and soon after, the sky was burning red, and all kinds of screams and cries sounded on all sides of the city.

The woman who was driven out of the house by the fire was dragged directly to the side of the street by several black-skinned cavalrymen who jumped off their horses and tore off their clothes, revealing a white flower body and screaming in the chest, and then the happy cavalry killed the person and threw it into the fire. In the palace, the king shouted with tears streaming down his face: "Surrender, Shule surrender, don't slaughter the city——"

Then, like a dog, he was thrown to the ground, and twenty paces away, a family of seventy people tied up and knelt in two rows, and a young child was dragged out, and the child was so frightened that his nose and tears were slugging, and his whole thin body was trembling, and he screamed and shouted at Timan here.

The blade fell, and a small head rolled to the ground, causing more screams and screams. A wolf rider shook the blade and shook the blood droplets, he had heard this cry for mercy countless times, and this time he directly grabbed a woman who cried the most fiercely and raised it, that is, to chop off the head with a knife.

"Wolf King..... Wolf King..... please be gracious—"

Timan lay on the ground, crawled towards the black war horse standing between the black and the firelight, his head kept knocking on the ground, and the group of family members to be slaughtered also kowtowed, "Timan doesn't dare, let my family go..... everything I did, let me die." ”

The restless horse's hooves stepped on the spot, the sprinkling mane, a palm covered with armor leaves stretched out, and stroked the horse's mane, Gongsun Zhi in the shadow, a black hideous beast face half-body armor, white wolf wool between the collar wrapped around the right shoulder armor, a white wolf head set on it, wolf eyes were cold, on the right side of the war horse, an adult wolf bowed his body and exposed his sharp fangs to make an attack posture.

A slow voice sounded in a deep voice in the light and darkness: "You know what...... Your stupid revenge worked, and I lost a lot of people to my western expedition...... Many people stay in that cold jar forever, so I can only find some fervent beasts to serve as an army, do you think they are very dutiful? Since you have chosen to take revenge, don't think about surrendering, give him a weapon—"

Bang Dong –

A ring-headed knife was thrown in front of Timan, and Gongsun Zhi stroked the horse's mane hand and hooked his fingers: "Pick it up." ”

"Ahh

The king of Shule, who was crawling on the ground, screamed with all his might, grabbed the weapon in front of him, and while standing up, an arrow shot through his armor, and the whole person fell backwards, nailed to the ground, blood quickly gushed out of the corners of his mouth and wounds, and he died forever. The prisoner over there let out a low sob, and Dian Wei said in a low voice: "Lord, what about the people over there?" ”

Gongsun Zhi's eyes crossed the corners of his eyes, and he glanced at it, and drove the horse's head away: "No one will be left." As he spoke, the wolf riders around him walked towards the old and weak women and children with scimitars...... Cries for mercy, hysterical cries, and screams continued for a day and night, and after dawn, the city of Pantu in Shule was in ruins, and thousands of charred corpses were piled up in the city, and the stench of corpses lingered for months.

The next day, the 180,000 troops swooped down on the next prey.

On August 11, Shule was slaughtered, few survivors escaped, and the neighboring Shache country was still in a state of confusion about this matter, even though he had helped the Han Dynasty to pass some news before, more or with Shule, Khotan two countries blockade the main road, when the message came, the mighty cavalry had been overwhelmingly killed in front of the eyes, the people in the city did not have time to escape, and the surrounding fields were all blocked.

On the twentieth day, the infantry began to siege the city, and the battle lasted only an hour, when a fire began to burn in the city, and the slaughter began again.

In the thirteenth year of Jian'an, this autumn, the southern province of the Western Regions passed in a terrible massacre, and the caravans walking in the fields, the villages in the oases, and the cities standing proudly in the desert were all killed and injured in the sweeping soldiers, or the entire city was burned, and the news finally spread explosively.

On September 15, it was delivered to Xuchang, and the whole city, from the emperor and the family, down to the peddlers and pawns, were shocked, stunned, and frightened in the news that was transmitted back, and then more huge and detailed information was coming back from Liangzhou in the northwest, and then spreading from Xuchang at a terrifying speed.

South.

Liu Bei, who was trying to sit firmly in Jingzhou, did not study this news at the beginning of the period, and as time went on, more information followed, and the offensive that was originally going to attack Wancheng again was temporarily stopped, and then, locked himself in the study, and read the information many times.

On August 22, Puli fell......

On August 24, the entire city of Pishan was destroyed......

At the end of the month, the king of Khotan, Chi Li'an, led the people to surrender, and then beheaded the sacrificial flag, 20,000 soldiers were killed, and more than 70,000 people in the city were lost.

In September, Kumitu ...... On the fifth day of the same month, the city was bulldozed.

Liu Bei pinched Su Bao's hands, trembling slightly unconsciously, 180,000 elite people, who dares to touch its edge? He closed his eyes in some pain, and even the dependent military advisor walked in, but he didn't notice it, but only sighed softly.

"What should I do......"

Zhuge Liang sat down opposite, smiled and reached out to take a look at Su Silk, the smile suddenly froze on his face, turned into distressed thoughts, and then retreated to the side, followed by silence.

With the caravan that first followed the Western Expeditionary Army to rest and Daqin returned from the Northwest one after another, although they suffered heavy losses in the great maelstrom in Central Asia, the information brought back finally made the people and families everywhere realize that the army that was destroying the cities of the people in the Western Regions along the way was the Western Expeditionary Army that had disappeared for four years.

Some people cried with joy and went out to report, the division of the great victory raised my great Han majestic, but there were also people far away in Jiangdong who took the lead in blocking the news, the yellow-bearded and blue-eyed figure sat alone in the main hall, listening to the oil lamp occasionally burst out in the silence with a slight sound, cut off the news for several years, and the Western Expeditionary Army, which I thought was not there, came back, and after the news was confirmed, there was a stone in his heart that never put it down.

"When the Western Expeditionary Army comes back, is that brother still alive .....?" I don't know if I should be happy or ...... such words Make a decision.

Soon after, he issued a series of appointments, transferring veteran generals such as Han Dang, Huang Gai, and Cheng Pu to Wu County, Wucheng, and Juzhang, and Zhang Zhao being promoted to the Taishou ....... of Huiji County, etc., while a group of young generals such as Gan Ning, Ling Tong, and Xu Sheng were recently listened to, and Lu Su, Lu Meng, and Zhu Heng also began to stand alone. However, after everything was done, Sun Quan stared at the information without blinking, and the whole person trembled slightly.

180,000 troops slaughtered from the sea of corpses and blood....... How does this work..... For the first time, he felt a sharp pain in his brain.

The news of the bloody slaughter of the Western Expeditionary Army all the way spread throughout the Central Plains and the north and south of the river, such as the calm water in the north, there were also ripples, Cai Yan sat in the attic, listening to the excited sound of his son's fists, and finally had a smile on his face that had been tense for a long time.

The autumn breeze stroked the skirt and hair, she brushed her hair, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and tears flowed down the fine lines in the corners of her eyes.

"It's back...... But Rong Hua, who is a concubine, is also gone. ”

……

In October, the last city fell, and 180,000 troops arrived at Yumen Pass, and the guards faced such a huge army, and it was the governor of the Han Dynasty, who trembled down from the city wall, opened the city gate to greet him, and stepped into the pass, which was regarded as entering the gate.

Wolf flag hunting, in front of the three armies, several teams walked out one after another, the knights who turned around in front of them, looking at them, Li Ke handed over the wine, Gongsun Zhi held the pottery bowl, and there were wine stains spilled out: "I...... Took the brethren home. First of all—"

The wine fell in front of him, and the generals in front of him, Zhang Fei, Xiahou Yuan, Sun Ce, Huang Zhong, Zhou Yu and others also did the same. Gongsun Zhi re-served the full wine, and then raised it: "Seven years of war, but also to separate, although reluctant, but there will be a farewell, look forward to everyone remember the idea of the family and country, if there is a coming day, we will meet again." ”

The number of generals in front of the formation was silent, looking at the wine in their hands, their eyes gradually flushed with wetness, and the love of the robes that had lived and died together for seven years was somewhat there, although they had thought about leaving on the way, but at the moment of the real separation, they were a little reluctant in their hearts, and the soldiers behind them were also hugging soldiers from different states and counties, telling some words, and their voices became choked as they spoke.

"The idea of the family and the country, the policy must be kept in mind, and my Jiangdong children are also in mind, and I will never be a thief who disrumps the country!" Sun Ce took the wine and drank it all in one gulp, smashed it on the ground, and Zhou Yu beside him also nodded with the wine: "Yu and brother are the same, no matter where and when, the Great Qin Rebellion is a lesson for you and me, and I dare not forget it." "Raise your head and drink it all in one gulp.

"Let's go—" Sun Ce roared with red eyes, picked up his gun and slapped his horse and left here first.

Only 800 Jiangdong cavalry were left with the ashes of their companions who came out together. Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun glanced at each other, and also urged the horse to come out: "Back in Xuchang, Yuan will definitely urge the eldest brother with all his might." Cao Chun arched his hand, and a smile appeared on his face: "The leader will come to Xu Capital in the future, and Chun should accompany him throughout the whole process." Before the two of them could finish speaking, Zhang Fei had already ridden out and shouted at Xiahou Yuan: "Father-in-law, we have also had a fateful friendship, after I go back, I will bring my mother-in-law and children to see you, but don't be embarrassed." As he spoke, he bowed to Gongsun Zhi with a spear: "Gongsun Dudu, Lao Zhang speaks straight, if there is any offense in the past, don't take it to heart, after going back to the eldest brother, if he thinks about what kind of royal nobleman he is, I will tie him up for you." ”

Although it was a joke, everyone around laughed, and Wei Yanqi coaxed: "We all heard it, don't dare when the time comes." ”

"Didn't you learn it from the Governor? My mother-in-law snatched it. Xiahou Yuan next to Zhang Fei's words almost started with him, causing everyone to laugh for a while, and then the black man rode out on horseback, stopped in the distance, and arched his hand heavily towards the generals: "Lao Zhang will go back first and wait for the imperial court to reward him...... These seven years of conquest are the most honorable time for me Zhang Fei, and it is also the most painful time......"

Thick voice, a little choked, "...... Leave! ”

The lone knight ran into the sunshine, and then Cao Jun's tiger and leopard cavalry also followed Xiahou Yuan and Cao Chun away, and the remaining four generals such as Zhang Ren, Yan Yan, Huang Zhong, and Wei Yan also said goodbye one by one, Wei Yan patted Ma Dai: "Go back and practice well, I want to ask for advice next time, I don't know when, but Yan's family is welcome at any time." On the other side, Ma Chao pulled over his sister, who thought she was a wife, and whispered: "Don't go back, go back to the north directly, I'll tell my father when I go back, and then bring him to look for you." After speaking, he blinked, Ma Yunlu rolled his eyes, snorted in his nose, ignored his brother, rode back to the white wolf riding array, and stood side by side with Zhao Yun.

In the Bingzhou army, there are also people who are making a temporary goodbye: "For the husband to return to Jiangdong first, exchange the family business to his father Lu Ji, people must always have a beginning and an end." Subsequently, Lu Lingqi's words were quite loud, "After returning to Jiangdong, come back as soon as you hand over your family business, otherwise I will kill me single-handedly, and if there is no one in your Lu family who can fight, the door plaque will be smashed for you." ”

"Yes, yes..... Madame mighty. ”

.......

After all kinds of chattering goodbyes, finally on this afternoon, he embarked on his own way home, bathed in the sunset, Gongsun Zhi rode his horse to the north, and his cloak was rolled: "Go!" Let's go home too—"

When the dust and smoke were gone, the 170,000 troops marched again.
