Chapter 21: Loaded and Returned

It was not until the afternoon of the second day that the extremely tired Hun soldiers slowly recovered, and the sleeping soldiers began to get up and move, and the surrounding areas of the surrendered city where the smoke of gunpowder remained slowly became lively, and the voices of people were noisy.

Wander around with his guards, inspect the captives, and count the gains and losses. Fugu Huaijing had regained his vitality, jumping around, reminiscing about last night's battle, running around with people, knocking on the Xianbei captives.

Helan Dangfu carefully reported to Ji Louyuan the results of the night attack on the surrendered city, which made Ji Louyuan overjoyed. Ten thousand people in Xianbei House, except for the warriors taken away by the tribe lord Putou, Ding Zhuang has seven or eight thousand, which is a large force. Three thousand enemies were killed, more than 3,000 were captured, and less than 2,000 fled in disarray, led by some western nobles.

More than 40,000 Xianbei women, children, the elderly, the weak, and slaves, trampled and ran, killed and wounded, and fled innumerably, and captured more than 10,000 people. As for the cattle, sheep and horses, there are countless heads, there are tens of thousands, if it weren't for the fire that scared away a lot, I'm afraid that Ji Louyuan wouldn't be able to take care of this point at all. The abundance of results made Ji Louyuan smile.

Helan Dangfu was also very happy, and said with some worries: "Lord, although the harvest is huge, the loss is not small. The fierce fighting lasted all night, and the Xianbei people resisted fiercely, causing heavy damage to our army. In particular, there were only more than 400 survivors of the elite soldiers of the main headquarters led by Fugu Huaijing, and all of them were injured. ”

Seeing that Ji Lou Yuan didn't say anything, Helan Dangfu was a little anxious, and his speech was a little fast: "Lord, all the captives add up to more than 10,000 people, and many of them are young and strong, our army is only 2,000, and they are all tired, and the pressure on the guards is too great." If you're not careful, you'll make a big mess! ”

Ji Louyuan smiled softly and patted Helan Dangfu on the shoulder: "Dangfu, don't worry, there will be a solution." You see! Helan Dangfu glanced at Ji Lou Yuan's fingertips, and there were more than a thousand ragged slaves in the distance, following Lan Li and a fierce man with an abominable face to this side.

Lan Li stood beside him with interest, and Wan Qian stepped forward and knelt down very simply: "Master, I and Lan Li's guard chief have brought all the slaves and warriors in the surrendered city, and we are at the mercy of the master!" ”

Ji Lou Yuan stepped forward, looked at the whispering slaves, and said loudly: "I am the Captain of the Hun Zuo, Prince Ji Lou Yuan, now I give you a chance, be loyal to me, be my eagle dog lackey, serve me, then you can regain your freedom!" ”

Without much hesitation, Wan Qianjin had a point, and soon someone knelt on the ground to show submission, and then there was a piece, everyone. Ji Lou Yuan smiled slightly when he saw this, he likes people who know the times, if he doesn't surrender, then continue to be a slave.

He called the servant Gu Huaijing, who was still showing off his might, to his side, pointed to the loyal slaves and said: "I will hand over these people to you, Wan Qijin will be your deputy, give me a good command of their training, I want a tiger and wolf army, can you do it?" ”

Upon hearing this, his eyebrows fluttered, and his eyes shone as he looked at those slave warriors, as if he had seen stripped off their clothes.

"Dangfu, with these people, are you still worried about the lack of manpower?" Ji Lou Yuan laughed. Helan Dangfu's worries immediately faded a lot, but he still asked with some caution: "It's just, can these slaves believe it?" ”

A chill flashed in Ji Louyuan's eyes, if he didn't obey, he would kill him, and the corpses inside and outside the surrendered city had not been disposed of, so they would be solved together!

Among the slaves of the Xianbei people were thousands of Han people, and this Ji Lou Yuan was very interested and personally inspected it. Scholars, craftsmen, farmers, and women were all used by Xianbei people to feed horses and cattle, which is really a waste.

Those scholars, Ji Lou Yuan's eyes lit up when he looked at it, he was short of Han people, this kind of scholar who had experienced such hardships in Xianbei should be a person who knows the times, and it is not difficult to take it for his own use.

But there are really hard bones, when Ji Lou Yuan asked them to teach the Huns to read Chinese characters and know etiquette, a few people categorically refused, with a contemptuous look. Ji Lou Yuan was also very decisive, and he didn't do anything about Corporal Lixian, three invitations and four invitations, and killed him. Under the threat of scimitars and death, smart people know how to choose, and if they can bow to the Xianbei people, they can naturally bow to Ji Louyuan.

As for the people who work in the Han realm, they are already engaged in lowly jobs, their status is humble, they are uneducated, and they don't know what national righteousness is. Ji Lou Yuan didn't say much, so he naturally surrendered, at least he could return to the Han realm with the Huns, and he didn't have to suffer in this bitter cold place outside the fortress.

After another day of recuperation in the surrendered city, Ji Louyuan began to evacuate with the results of the battle, leaving Xianbei in the west in a mess. Tens of thousands of prisoners, tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses, the road back, the Huns were overjoyed, and they were all calculating how much they would get with their own combat functions. With Ji Lou Yuan's generosity, they will definitely not lose their benefits.

The news of the attack on the surrendered city soon spread to the western Xianbei lord Putou, who had just defeated Tian Yan, the general of the Xianbei Zhonglang, and the Han army was annihilated, and he was very happy. When the bad news came, the Xianbei nobles who went out on the expedition were shocked, especially when they learned that it was the Huns who did it, and the angry Putou stabbed several Han prisoners to death with the captured Tian Yan's sword.

The joy suddenly disappeared, and he hurriedly led the army back to the surrendered city, and saw the corpses all over the sky, and the blood mixed with the ashes of the grass and trees soaked the grassland, like the hell of Shura, which was extremely miserable. Many of the Xianbei people who had escaped had come back one after another, and the cries and cries were wafting across the grassland, and Ji Lou Yuan was also ruthless enough, except for the Xianbei people, not even a single dead livestock corpse was left for Putou, and they were all pickled by him as marching rations.

The nobles of the western Xianbei were busy collecting their own people to see how much they had lost. Putou stared at the lonely surrendered city with red eyes, defeated the Han army, but the nest was ended, Ji Louyuan's blow weakened the strength of Xianbei in the west by two or three percent, and infinite anger filled his heart.

I couldn't help howling, like a wounded tiger, it was extremely dangerous, and I hated the Huns to the extreme. I have to organize to clean up this mess, rebuild my home, gather the rest of the western Xianbei to fill the loss, and slowly lick my wounds.

When Putou led the army back to the surrendered city, Ji Louyuan had already led people into the territory of Wuyuan, and he was completely safe, and there was no danger of pursuing troops.

Ji Lou Yuan didn't care about the monstrous hatred in the hearts of Putou and the Xianbei nobles in the west, and leisurely withdrew his troops and returned, going straight south from the surrendered city, crossing Yin Mountain, and going straight to Wuyuan. The march with the captives was slow, but fortunately, the Xianbei tribes in the north and south of Yinshan were taken by the military might of Ji Lou Yuan, and they fled far away, otherwise they would delay the Huns a little and be caught up by Putou, but they were afraid that Ji Lou Yuan would have to give up a lot of loot.

From the five plains east into the clouds, and then south to Dingxiang Benxi River, along the way, the victorious Huns can be described as high-spirited, a good wave of limelight. Wuyuan Yunzhong County, Han and Hu lived together, Ji Lou Yuan led the army to bite off a piece of fat from the Xianbei people, but it shocked many people's eyes, and Ji Lou Yuan's name was once again widely spread.

The Han army attacked in three ways, and the results have come out, and they all returned with a heavy defeat, but it was Ji Louyuan's partial division, which was willing to take risks and return with victory. Since then, the prestige of the Xiongnu prince Ji Lou Yuan, inside and outside the Great Wall, in the north and south of the desert, no one knows it, and no one knows it.

When he returned again, it was already winter, and Ji Louyuan fell into a dormant period again.
