Chapter 44: Later Qin's Envoy

Good times are always short-lived, Linghu Mingyue has not been here since she went back two days ago, Li Yan has been in the house for the past two days, holding the amulet that Linghu Mingyue gave him in a daze.

Two of the dozen scouts sent out by Linghu Qian last night finally returned, and the rest were shot by the Huns.

The news of Southern Liang's attack on Northern Liang was well known in Zhangye City, and the city was in a panic. Frustrated, the army returned, which made the people in the city feel a little relieved.

News came from Xi'an County, Fuqu defeated Nanliang's vanguard army in Xi'an County, and at present, Nanliang's bald Wei Tan is leading troops to confront Fuqu, and the two sides have suffered casualties in a big battle.

Xijun Taishou Tian Ang was almost wiped out, if it weren't for the timely withdrawal of troops from Xiliang to help, I'm afraid that Xi'an County would have been occupied by Nanliang a long time ago.

"Dudu, the Xianbei people have begun to attack the city again." At the head of the city of Xi'an County, Fu Qu looked at a large area of Nanliang army under the black pressure under the city, and his face was solemn.

Now its own army is less than 40,000 people, and it has lost thousands of people these days. Because the county town is only three zhang, several times the Nanliang army has been killed in large numbers on the city, if it is not for the frustration of Qu to take the lead and personally go into battle to kill the enemy, the morale will be greatly boosted, and the county town will be captured.

"Bring the enemy fifty paces closer before firing the arrow." Frustrated Qu commanded the commander beside him.

The battle with Xiliang consumed a lot of ordnance, grain and grass, and now Nanliang is coming, and the ordnance is seriously insufficient, and the army is only 30,000 arrows.

The news that Fuqu was seriously injured by an arrow in a hundred years soon knew that the auxiliary general Zang Mozi led 5,000 soldiers and horses to help in the afternoon, which made Fuqu feel a little at ease.

Two years ago, when the Nanliang army attacked Zhangye, Fuqu led the Xiongnu army, broke Nanliang, and drove the Nanliang army out of Zhangye until it occupied the western county that originally belonged to Nanliang.

Who would have thought that the Nanliang army, which was beaten by itself and abandoned its armor, took advantage of the situation to take Xijun when they sent their troops to Xiliang, not to mention, and wanted to besiege this short county town by themselves.

"Shoot the arrows." As the Nanliang army got closer and closer, Fu Qu ordered in a loud voice.

The Nanliang army held a shield, faced the rain of arrows, and risked their lives to rush over.

"Dare to let a Xianbei thief come up, there will be no mercy!" Frustrated Qu snorted.

Those Nanliang sergeants who climbed up from the ladder were instantly harvested by the scimitars in the hands of the Huns.

A few hours later, the Nanliang army withdrew to the camp, leaving a large area of corpses under the city.

Lejuan, the original camp of the Xiliang Army, has now become the camp of the Huns.

Two days have passed since he was seriously injured and fainted by a thunderous arrow, and he only breathed faintly.

"Old man, if you can't cure the general, don't blame me for being polite. It's been two days, and the general hasn't woken up yet, I don't think you want to live! Outside the big tent, a Hun commander grabbed an old man's shirt and said fiercely.

"Jun~ Master Jun, Xiao Lao'er has taken out the arrows for the general, but ~ it's just that the arrows in the general's are much larger than the ordinary arrows, causing the general to lose too much blood and the wind and cold to invade, whether the general can wake up depends on the general's creation." The old man replied with a look of horror.

"Creation? I'll let you create! If the general can't wake up, I want your whole family to bury the general! The commander slapped the corner of the old man's mouth, and suddenly the blood flowed from the corner of the old man's mouth.

This old man is a famous doctor near Lejuan, after the Huns captured Lejuan, they regarded Le Juan as their own land, but there was no large-scale slaughter of the people.

Two days ago, after being hit by an arrow for a hundred years, Fuqu was escorted back to the Lechuan camp by his own guards, and this old man was brought from home by the Huns like catching chickens to the Lechuan camp to treat the injuries of Fuqu for a hundred years.

Now that two days have passed, Fuqu is still unconscious for a hundred years, if it weren't for the fact that most of the doctors near Le Juan had fled for their lives, the Huns would have executed this old man a long time ago.

After a burst of punches and kicks, the old man curled up on the ground kept wailing.

At night, the frustration in the big tent finally woke up, his face was pale, his lips were chapped, because he had just been hit hard, and now Frustrated Qu Hundred Years was not as brave as before, and he kept coughing.

"General, you're finally awake." The guards who had been frustrated for a hundred years were very happy to see that he was sober.

"Where is Ben?"

"General, it's already Lechuan here, and now that the army has all withdrawn to Lejun, the general doesn't have to worry, just rest in peace."

"Ahem, immediately send scouts to investigate the movements of the Xiliang Army, and report in time if there is a situation." Frustrated Qu kept coughing for a hundred years, and motioned for the guards to help him up.

"Yes! General, you are seriously wounded, you should not move much, you have something to do, just tell me to wait. The guard replied, and then covered the quilt of the 100-year-old frustration.

"The general is not good, quickly send someone back to Zhangye to ask the king, ask the general of the town army to come to replace the general, and the army will strengthen the vigilance to prevent the Xiliang army from attacking, as long as we still occupy Lejuan, we can attack and retreat, and I will be able to take Jiuquan City sooner or later!" Go ahead! After a hundred years of pain, he fell asleep after confessing to his guards.

If it is said that the general of the Zhenjun is the cousin of Fuqu Mengxun, he was named Zhangye Taishou and the Marquis of Peace. For so many years, the Xiongnu army was stopped in Lejuan, and Fuqu attached great importance to it for a hundred years, as long as Lejuan was kept, the Xiliang army would not be able to threaten Zhangye, and it was like burying a nail in Xiliang, making the Xiliang army sleepless day and night.

After receiving the request of Fuqu for a hundred years, Fuqu Mengxun ordered Fuqu Funu to rush to Lechuan overnight to replace Fuqu Centennial to lead the Xiongnu army in Lezhuan's camp.

With the Fuqu Funu who came to the Lechuan camp, there were tens of thousands of stones, grains and grass, which made the Xiongnu army occupying the Lechuan camp a little relieved.

"How is the Centennial General now?" As soon as he got off his horse, he asked the commander who had come to greet him.

"General, the hundred-year-old general has been coughing up blood for the past two days, and the situation is not optimistic, so I just fell asleep." The commander looked depressed, frustrated by the current situation that had led to low morale among the battalion officers.

"Is there any movement in the Xiliang Army?" Fuqu Funu stopped and looked at the northern sky and asked in a deep voice.

"General Hui, according to the scout's report, the Xiliang Army has not moved at present, but in the past two days, the scouts of the Xiliang Army have been found to be haunting near the Lejun camp, and the Xiliang Army is estimated to be investigating our fiction and reality."

"Don't be careless, and order people to transport these grains and grass into the camp and defend them tightly." Fuqu Funu looked back at the grain and grass behind him, and then ordered.

In the middle of the night, Fuqu Baibai woke up. When he saw that the frustrated canal slave in front of him had already arrived, he wanted to get up and salute, but was stopped by the frustrated canal slave.

"The hundred-year-old general has made great contributions to the retreat of our army, and now he is injured, so there is no need to be so polite. Ben will be ordered by the king to take over the defense of the centennial general, and I hope that the centennial general will recover as soon as possible, so that Ben will be idle. Ha ha. Fuqu Funu was relieved for a hundred years, and laughed loudly.

"Ahem, Master Hou is serious. Everything in today's Lejuan camp is entrusted to Master Hou! Frustrated Qu Bainian coughed weakly.

"Hmmm! The hundred-year-old general rested, and when the general finished handling the military affairs, he asked the king to take the hundred-year-old general back to Jiankang City to recuperate. ”

Seeing that it was getting late, Fuqu Funu stopped talking and let Fuqu recuperate for a hundred years.

In the city of Jiuquan in Western Liang, since the Xiongnu army withdrew to Lezhuo, the Chinese military officials of the DPRK asked Li Wei to send troops to retake Lezhuo.

Lechuan is too close to Jiuquan City, fast horses can arrive without a day, now the Huns occupy Lejuan, Xiliang is like a fish in the throat, if you do not uproot the Hun army of the Lejuan camp, the Xiliang army will be sleepless all night. No one knows when the Hun army will attack.

"Lord, the minister thinks that the camp of Le Chun must be recaptured, and the minister asks the prince to send troops to Le Chun." After Sima Yin Jianxing came out of the column to salute Li Wei, he said earnestly.

"Father, the child is now fine, and I am willing to lead the army to recapture Lechuan. Please allow your father! Li Xin immediately came out and hugged his fists and said.

Since Li Xin was ambushed in the camp of Lejun for a hundred years, he could only recuperate in the mansion after leading the army back to Jiuquan City, and now so many days have passed, but it is no big problem, just watching Ling Huqian and Li Yan repeatedly make war exploits, which makes Li Xin secretly hate in his heart.

"yes. Rajah! Now that the Metropolitan Governor is no longer in serious trouble, he should shoulder the heavy responsibility of peace. Although General Tang Yao is sober, he is frail and sickly, and he has made great contributions to my Daliang over the years, and he should let General Tang recuperate with peace of mind. Seeing that Li Xin wanted to regain military power, Suo Xian immediately spoke.

Suo Xian's meaning is very clear, Li Xin is the governor of Pingliang who was personally appointed by Li Hui, since his body is no longer in serious trouble, he should return to the military power and continue to take charge of Pingliang, and he did not forget to give Tang Yao eye medicine, saying that his hard work is high, and he can't bear the old general to suffer again.

"Lord Wang. The last general thought that this matter should be discussed in the long run, now the Hun army occupies the Lechuan camp, the last general with the old Tang general in the Lechuan camp for more than five years, well aware of the solidity of the Lechuan camp, if you want to capture the Lechuan camp is not a day's work, if the Hun reinforcements arrive, the consequences are unpredictable, please think twice. Ling Huqian watched Suo Xian and the others continue to instigate Li Wei to send troops, and said with his fists in his hands.

"General Linghu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still not afraid, why did General Linghu push back, could it be that General Linghu was frightened by the Hun thieves?" Yin Jianxing couldn't help but be furious when he saw that Linghu Qian did not agree to send troops to attack Le Jun.

"This matter can be discussed later, this king has important things to discuss, the envoys of the Qin State have been to Jiuquan last night, and now they live in the post station, tonight the king set up a banquet to catch the wind, what do you think the Qin State wants to make now?" Li Wei waved his hand and stopped talking.

When the civil and military officials in the hall heard that the envoy of the Qin State was coming, they looked at each other, and then the sound of "humming" was heard, and everyone talked nonsense.

"Silence! Isn't it shameful that the envoy of the Qin State came to see you and others look like this? Li Wei rebuked angrily.

In the Qin State, the Qiang people Yao Chang killed the former Qin Fujian and then replaced the regime, known as the Later Qin in history. A few years ago, Qin broke through Guzang, and Western Liang and Northern Liang paid tribute to Later Qin.
