The heavy rain fell for two days and two nights, and it didn't seem to have stopped, the road to Yecheng south was blocked, and the army marched slowly, which also followed Shi Zun's wishes, giving him a reason to delay time. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Your Highness, the group of Qiang people outside are all sick, and if they continue like this, I'm afraid they will die before they reach Yecheng." Tan Yuan said to Shi Zun.

"Cover their cages with something to keep out the rain, feed them some hot soup and wine, and don't die." Shi Zun didn't raise his head, just looked at the map on the table.

"What is Your Highness looking at?" Tan Yuan asked.

"Do you remember that day when we were flanked by the Huns and Qiang, Shi Min led people to attack the rear of the Huns?" Shi Zun pinched his chin, stared at the map, and asked Tan Yuan, who was standing in front of him.

"Of course I do!" Tan Yuan nodded and asked, "Why did Your Highness suddenly remember this?" ”

"Don't you think it's strange? Shi Min's men and horses can march nearly a thousand miles in a day and night, if it is only the Zhulong horse under his crotch, he may be able to do it, but he can lead thousands of men and horses to appear in the rear of the Huns, which is a bit wrong. Shi Zun said with a frown.

Tan Yuan also fell into deep thought, and said slowly: "Your Highness, it seems a little strange that you say this, how did he penetrate the rear of the Huns in such a short period of time?" ”

"That's why this king was looking at the map, and after thinking about it for a long time, he didn't understand how Shi Min did it."

"Could it be that his people can go to heaven and earth? Otherwise, the subordinates really can't think of any other possibilities, it stands to reason that we have walked so many times on the way to and from Yecheng to and from Licheng, even if it is the fastest, we have to take sixteen or seventeen hours, and it will take sixteen or seventeen hours, and it is only to Licheng, under normal circumstances, it is too late to rush to the place where we go to the Huns to fight, he is four or five hours faster! It's incredible! ”

"Unless ......"

"Unless what?" Tan Yuan asked.

"Unless they can fly directly over this mountain, they can kill them from the rear of the Huns in a reasonable time."

"Your Highness, this is impossible, if you want to pass this mountain, you have to take a detour in the direction of Taiyuan, which will only be slower." Tan Yuan directly denied Shi Zun's conjecture.

"What the hell, how the hell did this kid do it?" Shi Zun muttered to himself.

"Why is His Highness so concerned about this kid Shi Min now?"

"When this kid went out for the first time, he was able to go deep into the grassland, and the Huns and Qiang people were caught off guard. As far as this king knows, the grain and grass he carried when he left the customs were only for a few days, and under such circumstances, with less than 10,000 troops, he was able to achieve such a result, which is really amazing! It's a pity that this kid is destined not to be used by this king. ”

"Didn't you say that since it can't be used for you, you might as well get rid of it. The subordinates thought that the father and son of Xihuahou still had to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible, otherwise it would eventually become a stumbling block on the road to His Highness's succession. ”

"The king you said has thought about it a long time ago, but I haven't been able to think of a safe way, my father is very kind to their father and son, I really don't understand why my father is so good to them! It's just two Han dogs! Shi Zun scolded hatefully.

"Shi Zhan's father and son are not without suspicion with Your Majesty, has Your Highness forgotten that Xihua Hou was scolded with a rod last year?" Tan Yuan reminded.

Shi Zun suddenly realized and said, "This king almost forgot about this!" Thanks to your reminder! ”

"Since other methods can't get rid of this father and son, it's better to find a way to provoke a conflict between them and Your Majesty, even if Your Majesty favors them, after a long time, there will always be a time when they turn their faces, once this father and son fall out of favor, then they will have no impact on His Highness!"

"You have a point! It is the best way to provoke contradictions between them and His Majesty! ”

At this moment, a voice came from outside the tent: "Your Highness, the leader of the Qiang tribe said that he wants to see you!" ”

"Mudu? What does he want to see you for? Tan Yuan looked at Shi Zun suspiciously, then turned around and walked to the door curtain and asked, "Did Mu Du say what happened?" ”

"Nope! Mu Du just shouted to see His Majesty, and when he asked him what he was going to do, he refused to say. ”

"Alright, you can go down." Tan Yuan commanded.

"Yes!"

"Your Highness, do you want to see you?" Tan Yuan turned around and asked Shi Zun.

"As the saying goes, a man is dying, and his words are good, let's go, go and see what this Mudu leader wants to say." Shi Zun said and stood up.

It was raining heavily, and it was already muddy outside. Fortunately, the place where Shi Zun and the others camped was on higher ground, except for some muddy ground, there was no standing water. In contrast, those Qiang captives are much more embarrassed and miserable, although they have regained spring, but the weather in the north is still a little cold, plus these people have been drenched in rain for two days, almost all of them are almost delirious, if it is not for Shi Zun's order to feed them some hot soup, and use felt to block the rain, maybe they will die in a few days.

Shi Zun watched as those Qiang people were soaking wet, huddled next to each other one by one, keeping each other warm, and even the murderous aura and wildness that they had when they were first captured before were gone.

"I heard that you are going to see this king." Shi Zun stood four or five steps away from the cage, looked at the embarrassed Mu Du in the cage and asked.

Mu Du raised his head and looked at Shi Zun, although Mu Du's face was haggard, but his spirit as a leader had not diminished at all, only to see him sitting there motionless, and asked coldly: "Are you going to dispose of me and my people?" If you want to kill, you have to give a good time! ”

Shi Zun sneered and said mockingly: "I didn't expect that the leader of Mudu has been locked up for so many days, and he is still so murderous when he speaks. How? Afraid of death or what? ”

"Afraid of death? Hum! We Qiang people are not greedy for life and afraid of death! I don't believe you are now taking a knife and cutting down the old men, see if the old men will frown! ”

"Who the fuck are you, Lao Tzu! Speak politely to our Highness! Tan Yuan scolded.

"What? Are you so energetic, do you want to be in a hurry to recognize your Grandpa Mudu as your father? Mu Du said coldly and provocatively.

"You ......" Tan Yuan was annoyed and angry, and pulled out the knife on his waist to slash.

Shi Zun stretched out his hand to stop Tan Yuan and said, "What are you angry with a lost dog?" ”

"Your subordinates should not act rashly in front of Your Highness, please atone for your sins!" Tan Yuan withdrew his knife and saluted Shi Zun.

"Dogs and human trash!" Mu Du continued to scold.

Tan Yuan didn't say anything this time, just stared at Mu Du in the cage viciously.

"Leader of Mudu, now that you are a prisoner of this king, no matter how you fight with your tongue, it will not help, and this king will not let you go!" Shi Zun was calm and calm, and said unhurriedly: "Aren't you clamoring to see this king?" While this king still has the patience to listen to you, just say it quickly, otherwise when you want to speak, I'm afraid you won't have a chance to say it again. ”

"You Zhao people killed 10,000 of our Qiang people, this account will be settled sooner or later, if you let me go, the Qiang people and Zhao State may not meet each other, otherwise, my people will definitely avenge me!" Mu Du said in a threatening tone.

"I thought the leader of Mudu was a well-known tough guy, but I didn't expect that he was also a greedy and afraid of death!" Shi Zun sneered.

"Shi Zun, don't pretend to be a saint in front of Lao Tzu, you have the ability to keep these cool words for the Huns Shan Yu! Who was it at that time that we and the Huns fought and almost wiped out? If it weren't for the kid who made the halberd to sneak attack and save you, you Shi Zun would have become a ghost under the knife a long time ago! ”

"Mudu, this king hopes you understand that the king will be defeated. It doesn't matter what you say, what matters is that now you are a prisoner of this king! You're the one in the cage! ”

When Mu Du heard Shi Zun say this, the muscles on his face couldn't help but twitch a little, but he didn't react after all.

"What? Nothing more? Shi Zun asked coldly.

"Are you planning to sacrifice me and my people to Old Shihu?" Mu Du stared at Shi Zun and asked.

"It's nature! The dignified leader of the Qiang tribe has become a prisoner of this king, how can he not tell me about the people of the Qiang tribe? Shi Zun said with some pride.

"Aren't you afraid that I will come to Shi Hu and tell Shi Hu about the embarrassment of being beaten by the Huns on the battlefield? Shi Zun, I heard that you want to compete for the crown prince of Zhao State, in this way, I'm afraid your status in Shi Hu's heart will be greatly reduced, right? Mu Du smiled coldly.

After listening to Mu Du's words, Shi Zun's face suddenly turned blue, his eyes were full of murderous intent, and there was no squeak for a long time, Tan Yuan looked at Shi Zun's face and scolded Mu Du: "The general of the defeated army!" Hugh is going to talk nonsense! ”

"Lao Tzu is talking nonsense? You kid is still brazen! If there were no reinforcements at that time, you would have been covered with corpses, but at this time, you are pretending to be here with Lao Tzu! "Wood is not forgiving.

"You have reminded the king." The corners of Shi Zun's mouth showed a cold smile, and then he said to Mu Du: "This king doesn't seem to have anything else to say, in this case, this king should have no problem borrowing your tongue to drink!" ”

As soon as Shi Zun's words fell, Mu Du's face changed instantly, he got up and grabbed the cage, and shouted loudly with a trembling voice: "Shi Zun! What do you want to do to Lao Tzu! ”

"What to do? Isn't this king clear enough? Shi Zun sneered, and then ordered the people around him: "Come on!" He cut off his tongue to the king, and tonight the king will drink with his tongue! ”

"Yes!"

Shi Zun turned around and left, and Mu Du's frightened shouts came from behind him.
