Chapter 10: The Hypocritical Zhang Huan
Ji Lou Yuan slowly walked west with the surviving horsemen, the horse under his crotch became dirty, the horse's legs swayed, and blood oozed from his hips from time to time. Seeing that Ji Lou Yuan was silent, Zheyu couldn't help but comfort: "The Lord doesn't have to be discouraged, we can save our lives, and we will definitely have a chance to return the color in the future!" ”
Ji Louyuan shook his head: "Victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and I am not depressed by this defeat." It's just that I am tired of so many warriors of the Huns, fearless sacrifice, and I hate it in my heart! At this time, Lan Li followed and persuaded: "Don't worry about the prince, who would have thought that Tanshi Huai would ambush our army in Chengle in person!" ”
"The Xianbei people are so well prepared, it is obvious that someone betrayed us and revealed the news of our going to Chengle to them, just waiting for us to throw ourselves into the net!" Helan Dangfu said coldly. Hatred flashed in Zheyu's eyes: "It's Zhang Huan!" ”
Ji Lou Yuan took a deep breath and sighed, "Yes, I never thought that he would be so jealous of me!" But I blame me for not being vigilant enough, knowing that Zhang Huan was jealous of me, but he didn't think about it, and fell into his calculations! ”
"I will never make the same mistake again!" Ji Lou Yuan said fiercely, and then instructed a few people around him: "You too, always remember that on the battlefield, you must not lose your vigilance at any time!" Zheyu and the others shouted in a deep voice.
In Yunzhong City, Zhang Huan propped himself up and asked the person who walked in: "What's the matter, Ji Louyuan and Xianbei are fighting, what is the outcome over there?" "My eyes are intense, and I care a lot. He shook his head, took a deep breath, and told Zhang Huan about the battle process that the scouts had discovered.
Zhang Huan sat down a little depressed, his face became more and more old, and when he saw this, he asked with some doubts: "Envoy, I don't know where this Xiongnu prince offended you, and he wants to take such great pains to kill him!" ”
Zhang Huan's voice was slightly hoarse: "There is nothing about Ji Louyuan that offended the old man, you have also seen what his ability is." The old man sees that his ambition is quite big, and the alien race has such a hero, but he is afraid that he will become big in the future and endanger the big man! ”
Engaged in some understanding, he suggested with his hand: "In that case, why not just find an opportunity to capture him?" When Zhang Huan heard this, he waved his hand again and again: "It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate!" The Xiongnu sent troops to assist the Han to resist the enemy, if I kill the commander because of suspicion, what faith can I say. And Ji Louyuan's identity is not low, and the Huns who killed him made a fuss, and it was difficult to explain in front of His Majesty. I originally wanted to borrow the hand of Tanshi Huai, but now this method has failed, so I have to put this matter aside for the time being and find another opportunity! ”
To the city in the clouds, Ji Lou Yuan made the Huns soldiers stationed outside the city, and led the pro-army such as Fugu Huaijing into the city. Zhang Huan was in the school field in the city, and with a fierce momentum, Ji Louyuan directly broke into Zhang Huan's tent, and the Han army with guards immediately surrounded him.
Seeing Ji Louyuan rushing to him in embarrassment, looking at himself with cold eyes, he knew that he had already reacted to his calculations, dragging his tired voice, Zhang Huan asked with a smile: "Prince, why is this?" What are the results? ”
Although everyone knows it in their hearts, Zhang Huan still doesn't want to tear his face on his face, he makes this calculation, he is public, and he can still face it calmly in the face of Ji Louyuan's questioning gaze.
Ji Lou Yuan smiled coldly, and suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist, and in an instant, the pro-army led by the servant Gu Huaijing, and the Han army in the tent followed closely behind the sword out of the sheath,-for-tat, and the atmosphere fell into a tense stagnation.
Ji Louyuan's eyes were like a sword, staring at Zhang Huan, Zhang Huan was not scared of him at all, he met his eyes, without a trace of nervousness. Ji Louyuan's cold voice sounded: "Let Zhang Yuanjun be disappointed, our army did not kill or injure a single Xianbei, but senselessly killed and injured half of the warriors!" The two fingers of his left hand touched the sharp blade of the sword, and the corners of Ji Louyuan's mouth hung with mockery: "My four thousand Hun warriors, my weapons are not stained with a drop of blood, but I lost half of them in the outlaw escape, which is really hateful!" ”
"I don't know how Zhang Yuanjun feels about this!" The blade drew a red mark on Ji Louyuan's fingers, and a trace of pain spread to the nerve endings, and blood lines seemed to be gushing out. Zhang Huan blinked his eyes twice, with a little emotion, and said "comfortingly": "That's a pity, the hard-working Hun warriors, running back and forth, the prince can lead the crowd to repair, and the old man will allocate some grain, grass, wine, meat, ordnance and your army!" ”
Ji Lou Yuan smiled when he heard this, and slowly put the sword back into its sheath, and the sound of iron grinding sounded in the ears of every soldier in the tent, until the sword grid collided with the sheath. Fugu Huaijing and a group of personal soldiers gathered their troops and stood, and the Han soldiers in the tent also returned their swords to the sheath at Zhang Huan's signal, and the tense atmosphere returned to calm.
"Thank you Zhang Yuanjun, farewell!" After a short speech, Ji Lou Yuan turned around and led people away. The Han army in the tent withdrew together, leaving only Zhang Huan and Cheng. "Ji Lou Yuan is so rude, so he actually used swords and soldiers in the king's tent, it is really dangerous!" Engaged exclaimed.
Zhang Huan's eyes were deep, and he took a breath: "He obviously understands the old man's calculations, and he understands it when he vents like this, what makes the old man uneasy is that he can't hold back and not have a seizure." The old man would rather he swing his sword and assassinate him, and the old man can use this to destroy him! After speaking, he sighed and ordered the supplies to be sent to the Xiongnu garrison.
Just outside the city in the clouds, Ji Louyuan commanded the soldiers to repair and maintain the horses, but he was stabbed in the buttocks, and many war horses died of excessive blood loss, which made the Huns feel distressed. Fortunately, there are a lot of supply horses left in the clouds, which can be replenished, otherwise these more than 2,000 Hun knights would not even be able to do a single one.
Zhang Huan really sent someone to send a lot of wine and meat, and Ji Louyuan decisively distributed all of it, so that his sons and daughters could drink and eat freely, and Daqing was passed, alleviating the low morale after the defeat.
The weather is getting colder, and under the dark night, the Hun camp is brightly lit, full of people, and it is very lively. More than 2,000 Hun soldiers were arranged to drink and eat meat in batches, but Ji Louyuan did not dare to let the whole army drink together, and strictly ordered not to get drunk. In case Zhang Huan changed his attention, he directly led the army to raid out, and after that, he had to guard against it, and he had to be careful.
The atmosphere outside the tent was warm, and the tent was not deserted, and Ji Lou Yuan, Zhu Zheyu and others also drank a little wine, dissipating a lot of the depression of the day's defeat. Ji Louyuan raised his glass and spoke: "Lan Li, Zheyu, Dangfu, Huaijing, I am deeply ashamed of today's defeat, and I should keep it in my heart." But it should be regarded as the rebirth of our army, and it is the beginning of our Xiongnu's rise in China! Ji Louyuan never forgot to instill the concept of Huaxia in them at any time, even if it was only to mention these two words with magical powers.
Lan Li was overjoyed when he saw Ji Lou Yuan put his name first, it seemed that the prince still regarded himself as his first confidant, and he didn't know that Ji Lou Yuan had set an end for him in his heart. A few people drank it all, their spirits were rejuvenated, and they were full of faith.
Zheyu sighed a little puzzled: "I don't know what this Zhang Huan means, in addition to wine and meat, he actually has a lot of ordnance with our army, and I said earlier that this is a heavy weapon of the army, and it should not be taken lightly." However, the ring-headed knife of this Han army is really excellent, if our army is equipped with such a sharp weapon, it should be able to use one as ten! ”
"Yes, in the future, my Huns will definitely use the most exquisite and sharpest iron tools to dominate the world!" Ji Lou Yuan said firmly. Closing his eyes and feeling the lively Hun camp outside the tent, Ji Louyuan suddenly burst out laughing!
The people below looked at each other, a little confused, and they didn't know why he was laughing. Fu Gu Huai asked, "Lord, why is this so?" ”
After laughing for a long time, Ji Lou Yuan calmed down: "I'm laughing at Zhang Huan, a good general in this life, he is so hypocritical, a scholar of the Han people, and a deep-rooted corrupt Confucian thought." Since you are so jealous of me, you are afraid that I will harm the Han people in the future. If it were me, I would have killed it directly, but I had spent so much effort and could not succeed, but instead appeased it with wine, meat and armament! Even at this time, he can directly lead his army out of the city to attack and kill us. It's ridiculous! ”
Helan Dangfu took a big sip of wine, shook his head and said: "Han people, especially Han nobles, are sometimes so strange! ”
Ji Lou Yuan smiled faintly: "If you want to know why, you should read more Chinese books in the future, learn more about Han people's thoughts and etiquette, know yourself and know your opponent, and there are many situations where you need to deal with Han people in the future!" Ji Lou Yuan commanded, his words full of deep meaning.
