Chapter 232: Who Surrenders to Barbarians
The barbarian soldiers running outside the tent said intermittently "The Han army is coming", which shocked all the barbarians in the tent, and Du Kang, who was full of pride, was even more shocked with his eyes.
Do the Han people really have an army?
How many centaurs did they come?
Oh no, the Han envoys are in trouble now, must they be allowed to have an accident?
……
In an instant, countless thoughts flashed in the minds of all the Ban Yu Manqu Shuai, and the last most important thought appeared in their minds, the Han army is coming, they must not let the Han envoy have an accident, otherwise the Ban Yu Man will incur a monstrous disaster because of this, the Ba County Taishou who has defeated them several times will definitely not let them go, at this time they must ensure the safety of the three Han envoys.
"Get out of the way, death to those who stand in my way!"
"Du Kang, if you don't want to see the Ban Yu barbarians exterminate the clan, let us leave immediately."
"Quick! Release! ”
……
At this moment, not only Gong Su and the others wanted to leave the camp tent, but most of the Qu Shuai in the camp also shouted to go out, Du Kang's face was suddenly gloomy, but he didn't dare to move. Ban Yu Man can continue for so many years, relying on the unity of the seven surnames in the clan, he can force these commanders to stay in his own tent, but he does not dare to be rough with them, or even use knives, otherwise even if he bloodily destroys the envoys of the Han Dynasty, the united seven surnames of Ban Yu will fall apart because of this.
"Quiet, ladies and gentlemen, wait a moment." After speaking, Du Kang looked at the barbarian soldier who came in to report the news and said, "The Han people really came here?" Where now? ”
The brute replied: "It's true, it's ten miles outside the camp at this time." ”
Du Kang nodded, and then asked, "How many people are coming?" ”
"There are countless soldiers and horses, and they are not to be measured."
"Huh?" Du Kang was stunned, he was obviously suspicious of the number of soldiers and horses coming from the Han people, how could there be so many? It's just that this barbarian soldier is his henchman, otherwise he wouldn't be able to get into this account, and he wouldn't lie, if so, did the Han people really have a large army to Langzhong County?
For a while, Du Kang was in a dilemma, and it stands to reason that when the Han Dynasty army came, he should let go. But he was unwilling, he was reluctant, he didn't want to lose this good opportunity to win a victory and dominate Bashu, otherwise, he would be like a lost dog in panic.
However, this Du Kang was making a choice, but the other Qu Shuai on the scene would not give him time to hesitate, seeing that he was silent, these Qu Shuai forced Du Kang again. Even some of them wanted to rush out of the camp directly, but they were blocked by the barbarians outside, the two sides were deadlocked, the Qu Shuai couldn't rush out, and the barbarians didn't dare to use their knives to deal with those Qu Shuai at this time.
"Dukang, the matter is critical, and if you don't make a decision, do you really want the Han people to destroy me?" Seeing that Du Kang still hesitated, he immediately asked, they want to rebel against the Han people, but it is also to make the Ban Yu man prosperous, and now there is a danger of extermination, so let go of it, and be a good person.
"Hey!" Du Kang sighed, and then said to the barbarians outside the tent with unwilling eyes: "Let go." Then he said to one of his confidants: "Quickly go to find Du Jun, whether you kill the Han envoy or not, you will take people away to the mountains of Brazil, you can't stay here for a long time, I will come later." ”
"No!"
Soon, the originally besieged camp tent was completely opened, and those Qu Shuai who were blocked in the camp ran back to their camp like wild horses on the loose, and gathered men and horses. Only a soldier who looked like a barbarian soldier left the camp and went straight to the location of the Han camp where a fierce conflict was breaking out at the moment.
Ten miles away from the barbarian camp, I saw a plain, countless Han troops who had just arrived neatly and densely, the smoke and dust were billowing behind the military array, and there seemed to be countless flags waving inside, and there must be many soldiers and horses behind the Han army's foot soldiers.
The barbarian camp fell into a standstill for a moment, no one knew how many Han people came this time, even Du Kang, who was still looking forward to the rise of the barbarians, was extremely shocked when he saw the seemingly thousands of Han soldiers and horses at this moment, this Han people really gathered so many soldiers and horses waiting for them?
At this time, in the Ban Yu Barbarian camp on the other side, the battle outside Qin Mi's tent had not yet ended, but it was no longer insignificant, Gong Yang's more than 20 people, only a few people were fighting to the death at this moment, and the others were all lying on the ground, life and death unknown.
"Qin Wuguan, it's time to see outside the tent." A scribe with a long sword in his hand, staring at the outside of the tent, said with a worried expression. His hand trembled slightly, and the long sword shook with it, bringing out a shaking sword shadow, even if he had already foreseen the result later, but in the face of the threat of death, this scribe still couldn't be as free and easy as Qin Mi beside him.
At this moment, Qin Mi was extremely calm, as if the movements outside the tent had nothing to do with him, he looked at the long sword in his hand with sharp eyes, and seemed to have returned to the time when he was studying and practicing swords with his friends. Many years have passed, and he has avoided and refused, and now because of Dong Fu's help, he has entered the command of Fuquan, and today is the time for him to become famous, and if he does not succeed, he will kill himself to become a benevolent.
With a "hiss", the tent was cut with knives, and then several barbarians rushed in with short knives, and without saying a word, they raised their knives and slashed at the three men.
"Kill!" Qin Mi didn't care about anything else, he held his sword and blocked it, although the other two were flustered, but after all, it was a matter of life and death, and he swung his sword with Qin Mi, and he couldn't die so humiliatingly when he died.
The Confucian scholars of the Han Dynasty have not yet degenerated to the same as the later Song and Ming scholars, they have no power to restrain the chicken, they have learned a lot from the six arts of the young gentleman, although it will not be a miracle, but the basic swordsmanship will still be, which can ensure that they are holding a sword for a while, and they are free to defend themselves.
The sound of weapons clashing appeared in the tent, and in the small space, the sword and the sword began a life-and-death duel between you and me. Due to the space limitation of the camp tent, only five barbarians entered the camp at this moment, which is good news for Qin Mi and the three of them, after all, three people against five people, the barbarians do not have too much numerical advantage, and they make a long sword, of course, with their strength, this can only resist temporarily, limited by physical strength, and the problem of battlefield experience, if these three people have no accident, they are destined to be defeated, and eventually become the soul of the barbarians.
Du Jun looked coldly at the battle situation in the camp tent, and after he sent someone to surround Gong Yang's remaining few people, he immediately ordered the others to kill in the camp tent. For him, it's good for Gong Yang to drag it out, but it's not good to kill it, after all, the Gong family is also a member of the Seven Surnames of Banyu, Gong Suyou is a famous man in the Banyu Barbarian, and killing other ordinary barbarians is just a grudge at most, but no one will really fight with other members of the Seven Surnames for the sake of ordinary barbarians.
As for why this is so, it is actually very simple, there is a saying in later generations, there are rivers and lakes in someone's circle. The life in the market is like this, the court is like this, and the settlement life of this Ban Yu Barbarian is still like this, since the seven surnames of Ban Yu have ruled the Ban Man, they are the top rulers in the Ban Barbarian group.
When it comes to rule, politics is involved, and under their unwritten rules, as long as there is no real irresolvable hatred, everyone must abide by the political bottom line. And the political bottom line of the seven surnames of Ban Yu, it is obvious that there is nothing else, that is, the safety of the lives and property of their seven surnames, as long as this bottom line is not broken, they will not really fall apart, which is also the reason why Du Kang did not dare to kill them even if he designed to trap the Ban Yu Man, because this is the reason why the Ban Yu Man has always been united, and it is the basis for them to rule the Ban Man.
Once broken, their unity will cease to exist, just as no matter how strong a fortress is, it is mostly broken from the inside, if this fortress of unity is not broken, the Ban Yuman will not lose their settlement rule because of this, otherwise, they will not even have a chance to raise an army to resist the rule of the Han Dynasty.
"Bang", the long sword in Qin Mi's hand was broken in response, and he himself fell to the ground because of the recoil of the split, it turned out that the barbarian on the opposite side cut it off with a knife, and then saw the barbarian swinging the knife towards him, and the other two scribes hurriedly blocked the barbarian in front of him, and turned around to rescue Qin Mi, "Ping, Ping", and two crisp iron collision sounds, the two long swords once again blocked the long knife of the barbarian soldier who was split, and the two hurriedly helped up the intimacy that had just fallen to the ground with the help of this kung fu.
"Qin Wuguan, we are going to die!" The official screamed sadly, almost all three of them had blood marks on their bodies, and it was tantamount to an idiot's dream to be unscathed under the knife of these brave barbarians. At this moment, unless a miracle happens, they will all die under the sword of the barbarians, and there is basically no hope of survival.
"On the clouds, people with lofty ideals are benevolent, there is no survival to harm others, there is killing to become benevolent. Now we have received the favor of the Han Dynasty and fallen into the barbarian camp, so we have killed ourselves to repay the country. Qin Mi replied, at this moment he also regretted his boldness in his heart, and at the same time doubted Dong Fu's proverbs.
At that time, Mr. Dong didn't tell him that as long as he was with Fu Quan, he would definitely become famous in the world, and in the future, the three princes and nine kings would not be a problem, why would he Qin Mi die here today. knew that this was the case, and I really shouldn't have been a leader, and I really regretted my fame and fortune for no reason.
The five barbarians on the opposite side were quiet at the moment, it was not that they were not in a hurry to kill Qin Mi and a few people, but they were fiddling with the formation, at this moment Qin Mi had no sword, and Qin Mi and the three of them only had two swords that could resist and kill, they only needed to deal with the two sword-wielding men with all their strength, subdue them, and then deal with a Qin Mi who had no blade in his hand, could these three Han people still live?
Time only stood still for a moment, and the five barbarians stood in their positions, and they were about to take the lives of Qin Mi and the three of them again, but just as they shouted and were about to step forward, a familiar voice suddenly came from outside the tent, and the voice shouted: "Go!" Hurry up, don't kill the Han envoy! ”
This is Du Jun's voice, the five barbarians were stunned, even Qin Mi and the three of them didn't know why, but after all, the five barbarians were Du Kang's chosen henchmen, and since they got Du Jun's order, of course they carried it out. They turned around and walked out of the camp tent, not entangled with Qin Mi and the others at all, and did not look at them, and Qin Mi and the others seemed to have a new life, they were all overjoyed at the moment, and naturally they would not take the initiative to contact this group of barbarians who were going to kill them.
What happened inside and outside the camp was explained very simply, that is, the barbarians sent by Du Kang handed over his message to Du Jun, and Du Jun heard the barbarians who reported that the Han army had arrived, so he naturally understood what his uncle meant, and hurriedly stopped the five barbarians in the camp who continued to attack and kill the Han people.
After recalling them, Du Jun glanced at Gong Yang and the others who were surrounded, and then left with his men and horses, and they left from the other end of the camp and went straight to the mountains and forests of Brazil. At this moment, they will not leave, and when the Han people come, they will not be able to leave if they want to, and the Han people will definitely know the reason for their gathering this time.
If they stay in the barbarian camp and drag down the barbarians in vain, their own people may not be able to cover them, but flee to the mountains, and wait for the wind to pass, and then come out again. It's just that at that time, they may no longer be able to do some things that plan rebellion like today, after all, the Han people will not be fools, and it is impossible to give them a chance to plan a rebellion, maybe in the future, they will always be able to hide in a place where the Han people can't find out, and they can't be discovered by the Han people that they are still barbarian.
In front of the Han army, Fu Quan looked coldly at the camp in front of him, which was not big or small, but in his heart, after the Dao barbarians suffered losses repeatedly, they finally had a long memory. Although this camp is still not as much as the Han army, at least it is decent, and the defense is more difficult.
"When the barbarians go out into battle, but they look at our army, they must be afraid of our rear army. I want to send people to fight and force them to tie their hands, the barbarians are cowardly, and they are afraid of the might of our army, and they can definitely subdue the barbarians, who dares to fight? Fu Quan glanced at the thousands of barbarian troops out of the camp, and shouted left and right.
This time, Fuquan inspected the counties of Ba County, and there were not many generals around him, except for Huang Zhong and Guan Yu at this moment, there were only the generals brought by Dehan City, and the rest of his henchmen were in Jiangzhou, or he had already sent the rest of the counties to serve. After all, if the territory is large, it is necessary to arrange the positions of his subordinates reasonably, otherwise if the distribution is not clear, and the rewards and punishments are unfair, a united political force will collapse from within.
Huang Zhong and Guan Yu were very fond of the martial arts of the two, and they only took more than 100 people to travel, most of them were scribes, and there were no strong guards around him, so he was not sure, so he let the two of them patrol the counties left and right. The two of them did not refuse, after all, they were in Jiangzhou to do other departments of the Sima that is just training soldiers and horses day and night, at this moment there is a suitable reason to travel with Taishou, of course they agreed, and by Fuquan's side, it is undoubtedly a manifestation of the identity of a close confidant, and smart subordinates will not give up this opportunity to get closer to Shangguan at all times.
"Loyalty!"
"Yu Goya!"
When Fuquan's voice fell, Huang and Guan stepped forward to ask for help, and after that, there was no one else, and the other generals bowed their heads one after another, unwilling to step forward. Most of these generals who had to lead troops in Seoul were commanders and military marquises, even though they had some martial arts, it was undoubtedly too difficult for them to subdue the barbarians with the strength of one person.
