Chapter 1053 Catch and build the road
The moment he landed, Tuoba Li was not only in severe physical pain, but also suffered a heavy blow to his spiritual dignity.
He never expected that he would end up like this.
was shot down by a female streamer!
He lost everything, along with the dignity of a man.
"Stinky woman, there is a kind of killing Ben Khan, there is a kind of killing Ben Khan~~" Tuoba Liwei, who was lying on the ground, yelled at Ma Yunlu who stepped forward.
Ma Yunlu looked down at him and snorted coldly: "Killing you is as simple as killing a sheep, but you have to leave it to Your Majesty." ”
After that, Ma Yunlu roared and ordered the soldiers to tie up Tuoba Li and dedicate it to the Son of Heaven.
As soon as the soldiers swarmed up, they tied Tuoba Li slightly.
When he was dragged down the city, he looked back again, and saw the entire Dragon City, overwhelmed by the endless tide of soldiers of the Wei army, killing a ghost and crying wolf, and killing countless casualties.
"I'm Da Xianbei, is this really the end, am I really going to become a sinner of Xianbei......"
Tuobali's heart is dripping blood.
100,000 Wei troops poured in through the gap, and in a short time they flooded the entire city.
Longcheng was stained with blood, most of the 40,000 Xianbei people were killed, and the remaining men and horses fled from the north gate and fled frantically to the north bank of the Anhou River.
Half an hour later, Su Zhe boarded the Dragon City.
Standing at the head of the city, looking down at the blood-stained Dragon City, looking at the last stronghold of the Xianbei people, and being trampled under his feet, how happy his heart was.
On the four towers of the city, the battle flag of the Wei army has been raised high, flying in the sky.
Su Zhe's gaze extended further north, beyond Longcheng, across the Anhou River, where there were still hundreds of thousands of Xianbei herdsmen, as well as millions of cattle and sheep.
If you want to destroy it, you must destroy it cleanly, and completely wipe out the Xianbei people from the map.
Su Zhe's horse whip was raised, and he was about to give the final killing order.
At this time, Deng Ai said: "Your Majesty, there are still hundreds of thousands of Xianbei people, all of whom are very good laborers, and it seems a pity to kill them all." ”
"What does Shizai mean?" Su Zhe looked at him.
Deng Ai said: "The minister thinks that His Majesty can reward the young Xianbei women to the soldiers, and the rest of the tools that can be taken will be sent to Liaodong to repair the Chi Road, so that they can make some contributions to His Majesty's expedition to Goguryeo." ”
Su Zhe's eyes lit up.
He was right, after destroying Xianbei, his next step would definitely be to clean up Goguryeo and completely solve the threat from Liaodong.
Even so, it was necessary to send a large number of soldiers and horses to Liaodong, as well as the materials needed for the expedition.
In that place in Liaodong, the winter is bitter cold, the summer is muddy, the march of the army and the transportation of materials are extremely inconvenient, if the difficulty of the conquest, in fact, it is more laborious than the conquest of the Huns, Xianbei and other Hu people.
Deng Ai's proposal was good, if he followed Qin Shi Huang's example and built a gallop road from Jicheng to the Goguryeo border, it would greatly alleviate the difficulties of marching and food and grass.
However, building such a gallop road will inevitably use a lot of manpower, if the people of Dawei are mobilized, not to mention the consumption of money and food, such a big project will not be completed without thousands of people.
If these Xianbei captives are used to repair the road, it will be different, the consumption of money and food will definitely be halved, and there is no need to worry about their life or death, even if all their bones are used to fill the road, Su Zhe will not be unbearable at all, and it will not cause the people in the country to complain.
"Well, Shizai's proposal is good, I've got it."
Su Zhe nodded, and raised his horsewhip: "Pass the order, the army will kill the Anhou River, except for the recalcitrant Xianbei soldiers, the rest of me will all live." ”
The order was passed down, and the Wei cavalry in Longcheng rushed out of Longcheng in a swarm and rushed towards the Anhou River in the north of the city.
Rolling iron horses, stepping on the bloody road of the Xianbei people, rushed to the river in a blink of an eye.
The temperature in the Mobei grassland is falling much faster than in the Central Plains, and the Anhou River at this moment has long been frozen.
The thousands of Xianbei people who fled in defeat crossed the river by stepping on the ice, so that the Wei army confirmed that the ice on the river was strong enough, so they had no worries, and also stepped on the river ice and killed the other side in a mighty way.
The north bank of the river.
Countless tents, like countless huge mushrooms, are densely packed on the riverbank.
Nearly 200,000 Xianbei people are crowding on the north bank of the river to keep warm.
The word uneasiness was written on the faces of each Xianbei person, and they huddled together with each other, trembling and listening to the earth-shattering sound of killing coming from the direction of Dragon City on the south bank.
They knew that the Wei army was already besieging the city, and a battle that would determine their survival was raging.
They also knew that if they lost this battle, the lives of their entire people would be destroyed here.
Just when they were nervous, an earth-shattering explosion suddenly sounded in the direction of Dragon City, and all of them jumped up in fright and looked in the direction of Dragon City in horror.
At the end of the field of vision, I saw billowing smoke rising from the north gate.
Xianbei people panicked, and their mood became more and more anxious, not knowing what was going on.
Soon, their eyes changed from anxiety to despair.
Because they saw that the south gate of Dragon City, which was originally closed, suddenly opened, and countless Xianbei defeated soldiers were fleeing towards this side in embarrassment.
Immediately afterwards, the rolling iron cavalry of the Wei army poured out of the city gate and rushed towards the Anhou River.
The Xianbei people exploded in an instant, falling into unprecedented panic.
"Is Dragon City broken? How can it be! ”
"Didn't you say that Wei Gou didn't have trebuchets, how did they break through Dragon City?"
"It's over, we're all done now!"
"Big guy, run away!"
"Where else can we escape, if we do, we will freeze to death in a blizzard."
The cries of horror and sorrow echoed over the Xianbei camp, and at this moment, for them, the end had come.
In the blink of an eye, 200,000 Xianbei people fell into chaos.
The iron horse rolled and stepped on the ice, and Pang De took the lead and was the first to rush to the north bank of the Anhou River.
In the head-on direction, two bold Xianbei herdsmen actually grabbed their maces and threw them at Pound, trying to prevent him from going ashore.
"Look for death!"
Pound scolded in a low voice, and the war knife in his hand slashed out diagonally, and the two heads flew out in response.
Pang De's bloody knife was horizontal, and he shouted: "The Son of Heaven of Great Wei has an order, those who surrender die, and those who fight die!" ”
The thunderous ultimatum echoed in the ears of the Xianbei people, shattering all their remaining will to resist.
In a moment, tens of thousands of Xianbei people fell to their knees, gave up resistance, and begged for mercy in a humble and pitiful manner.
There are those who descend, and naturally there are those who are dying.
Many Xianbei herdsmen spontaneously organized, with the determination to die, rushed forward to fight with the Wei army who crossed the river.
The ending is clearly easy to see.
100,000 Wei army iron horsemen, mighty and mighty, all the recalcitrant Xianbei herdsmen, all ruthlessly killed, not a single one left.
The Wei army was red-eyed, and although there was Su Zhe's holy purpose, there were still countless Xianbei people who surrendered and died on the blade of the Wei army.
At dusk, the killing finally ended.
On the entire grassland on the north shore, the corpses of thirty or forty thousand Xianbei people were lying, and the low sobs of hundreds of thousands of Xianbei captives echoed over the grassland.
