Chapter 739: Shan Yu's Prestige

What happened in King Zuo Xian's territory, Shan Yu knew no later than King Zuo Xian, and he also sent someone to check it out as soon as possible. The reply received was also inexplicable, and it was only at this moment that everyone believed that the message sent by Ashi Nabu might be true.

King Han was surprised: "I didn't expect the Han people to arrive in the hinterland of our Huns, Shan Yu, Chen Jian yΓ¬ immediately dispersed the army, we must find those Han people!" ”

Shan Yu thought for a while and said, "Ashi Nabu, are you sure those people are just horse thieves?" ”

Ashi Nabu hurriedly stood up: "The last general is just guessing, the three waves of people sent have not been able to figure out the origin of those Han people, there is news that the horse thieves in the territory of the Liwang of the Right Valley have run away, so the last general guessed that it is very likely that it is that group of horse thieves, and the number is right." ”

"Thirty thousand horse thieves!" Shan Yu took a deep breath: "Thirty thousand horse thieves are attacking everywhere in our territory, and we can't do anything?" What if this is a Han cavalry? Are you just watching? ”

The kings were silent, how to say that the one sitting above was also Shan Yu, although they no longer listened to Shan Yu's words, but Shan Yu's power was still there. After a long time, Shan Yucai continued: "King Han is right, if we don't find this group of horse thieves, we will be unwilling even if we get to Mayi, today these horse thieves attacked King Zuoxian's tribe, next time it may be yours, order the army to stop advancing, if you don't find this group of horse thieves, you won't march!" ”

After resting for three days in Liuyun Canyon, the horse thieves went through the initial excitement and came to worry. It is true that there is a lot of looting, but it is not so easy to bring it back. They are not herders, and they can't drive such a large herd of cattle and sheep on the road. Even if you barely catch up, it is impossible to walk quickly, and it is winter now, and there is still some dry grass in Liuyun Canyon for cattle and sheep to eat, and it is a trouble to eat and drink such a large group of livestock here.

In the tent, everyone has bad ideas, but unfortunately none of them are useful. Thorn scratched his head, turned his head and asked Zhao Xin: "Strategist, what do you say?" ”

Zhao Xin thought for a while: "It's really not easy to send such a large group of livestock back, since Mr. Su only needs horses, cattle and sheep are handy, and the price may not be too high!" ”

Old Black Tower immediately took over: "Who says it's not? It's good to say that cows are worthless, sheep are not worth anything at all! Ten sheep can be sold for the price of a horse! ”

Zhao Xin nodded and smiled: "In this case, let's just take the horses, the rest of the livestock will not be slaughtered, the weather is cold, don't worry that the meat will rot on the road, return to the border, and sell the meat directly to Mr. Su, a little less, a little less!" ”

The creeper grew his mouth in shock: "Killed?" That's a mountain of meat! ”

Thorn's eyes rolled twice, and he nodded: "Listen to the military advisor, kill!" ”

At the sound of an order, Liuyun Canyon turned into a slaughterhouse. Except for horses, cattle and sheep are not slaughtered, whether you can or not, as long as you can stab a knife into the body of the animal. Don't have offal or the like, just the meat. After half a day, Liuyun Canyon became a hell on earth. It is roughly estimated that there are 80,000 cattle and sheep, and even if there is a bowl of blood for each one, the blood of 80,000 cattle and sheep can become a river. In fact, a small red river really appeared in Liuyun Canyon, which stretched for four or five miles outside the canyon before it was frozen.

The vultures and hungry wolves gathered in the Liuyun Canyon like crazy, and the animals knew each other very well and did not bother the people who were slaughtering the livestock, and only waited for the people to leave before entering the canyon. The mountain-like entrails of cattle and sheep were still steaming, and the mixed heads of the cows and sheep almost covered the entire valley.

Ashi kept swallowing his saliva, and as heroic as he was, he was frightened by the scene in front of him, not to mention the others. King Han only glanced at Taniguchi and was reluctant to go in again. No one dares to disturb the wolves who are eating, there are too many! Once disturbed, those wolves can tear three thousand Hun warriors to pieces.

"They killed all the livestock!" The Lang Evil King was a little trembling when he spoke.

King Lianpeng covered his nose and shook his head: "It is true that the livestock were killed, but not all, there are only the skeletons and internal organs of cattle and sheep here, and there are no horses!" And they took away the beef and mutton, leaving only the head and legs with the least amount of offal and meat. ”

The King of Returnee roared, "These damned brutes! It's so cruel, you must know that these livestock are all of dozens of tribes! ”

This sentence attracted all the contempt, and even the King of Lotus Peng looked at him unnaturally: "As far as this king knows, there is no one left in those dozens of tribes!" ”

When King Zuoxian's men came, Shan Yu's army defeated the wolves and drove away the eagles, and was collecting the entrails of cattle and sheep that had not yet rotted in the canyon. Thorns they don't want these things, for the Huns to have these things is at least better than starvation. As the most knowledgeable group of livestock, the Huns never minded eating the offal of cattle and sheep, and occasionally they would drink with a warm heart, especially the genitals of livestock, which are said to have an aphrodisiac effect.

The person sent by King Zuo Xian was named Ji Li, a thin guy, with a pair of eyes sunken, and he had the characteristics of a heavy Western Regions race. Geely did not disturb Shan Yu's army to sort out and possess the internal organs of cattle and sheep, and only ordered his soldiers and horses to occupy an upwind outlet, and then sent someone to inform Shan Yu of his arrival. With just one glance at the situation in Liuyun Canyon, Geely understood that the rumors of horse thieves sacking the tribe might be true, otherwise the army would not be so busy with the mountain-like internal organs.

King Han walked into Jili's camp as Shan Yu's envoy. King Zuoxian's soldiers and horses were rich, and although the weather was cold, the soldiers standing at the gate of the camp were exceptionally energetic. King Han knew that King Zuo Xian had something to do with Yi Zhixi, although he was Shan Yu's envoy and did not put on a shelf as an envoy. After letting the guards report it, they led people to stand at the gate of the camp and wait.

Geely didn't come out to greet him, but just invited King Han into the account. After taking a seat, Geely glanced at King Han: "What did Shan Yu say?" ”

King Han said: "Shan Yu let this king tell General SΓΉ, the tribe under the command of King Zuo Xian was not attacked by us, but was attacked by a group of horse thieves, and when my army came here, the horse thieves had already left, and the internal organs of those livestock in the valley were left by them, and I also had to tell General SΓΉ that these horse thieves were cruel, if the general wanted to rely on this point of soldiers and horses to conquest, it would be better to forget about it." ”

Geely smiled: "Then with the meaning of the king, this matter is settled?" ”

King Han shook his head: "The general can inform King Zuo Xian and King Zuo Gu Li of this matter, and the two soldiers and horses will join forces to suppress the thieves, maybe they can also exterminate these horse thieves, but I am afraid that King Zuo Gu Li is unwilling to do so, so I also ask King Zuo Xian to be calm and not impatient, and after the matter is over, King Zuo Gu Li will naturally give King Zuo Xian an explanation for this matter." ”

"Oh? The king is so sure? ”

King Han smiled but did not answer, and changed the topic: "The general has worked hard from afar, if the general does not dislike Shan Yu and said that he can give the general some livestock offal, of course, it will not be much, and the army must also need food." ”

Ji Ji waved his hand: "Thank you Shan Yu Meiyi, horse thieves are ravaging the grassland desert, doing nonsense in the jurisdiction of my family Zuo Xian Wang, killing my people, this matter does not need to worry about alone, the last general will definitely exterminate these horse thieves, and please turn Shan Yu, hurry up on the road, Ma Yi already knows that Shan Yu's army is coming, is preparing, if it is too late, it will not be able to row." ”

Han Wang smiled and nodded, and the conversation between the two ended like this.

After listening to King Han's return, Shan Yu breathed a sigh of relief, it seems that the person sent by King Zuo Xian is not a fool, at least he understands that they did not rob cattle and sheep. If King Zuo Xian dared to be so presumptuous before, Shan Yu Neng sent someone to arrest and kill King Zuo Xian. But now he felt it better not to do that, at least not until he returned to Wolf Juxu.

There are a lot of livestock offal in Liuyun Canyon, and thanks to winter, most of the offal has not rotted and deteriorated. The Huns were very good at handling this meat, whether it was salt or something else, after salting and smoking, this grain was enough for the army to eat for several days. For a moment, Yu had such a thought, if those horse thieves left him such things at intervals, it was not impossible to get to Ma Yi.

Of course, this idea is also fleeting, just think about it. When the army set off, there was nothing left in Liuyun Canyon except for some blood. The wolves who had been waiting outside the valley howled as if to protest against the fact that the army had taken their food. Most of the wolves rushed down the valley and lay on the ground, sucking the blood that had burrowed into the cracks, picking up the entrails that they couldn't take away.

A white wolf like a calf stood on the top of the hill staring at Shan Yu's army, he had been howling for a long time, but the wolves did not give him a single reply. This is a wolf king, and in front of food, other wolves have forgotten the identity of the wolf king, and in their eyes there is only food and blood that has seeped into the ground. The wolf king looked helplessly at the valley, and then at the army in the distance, coming down from the hillside, and reluctantly joined the team fighting for leftovers.

Wind and snow are merciless, and whether you are a good person or a bad person, he will not be polite to anyone when he should come. It's like time, no matter what kind of person you are, time is fair to everyone. Shan Yu's army was under the baptism of wind and snow, and the army sent to Wolf Juxu by Yi Zhiyi was also undergoing the baptism of wind and snow. Thorns, a group of horse thieves, were baptized by the wind and snow, and the Ah Xun people who escaped from the wolf Juxu were no longer baptized by the wind and snow.

When I saw the small town of Mayi, the fat and big monks left tears. Two thousand miles, although there is a climbing plow prepared by Su Ren for them in advance, but the wind and snow along the way and the wind and food and sleeping in the open make the three of them never want to go again. All the way south from Wolf Juxu Mountain, three people climbed the plow, and ten horses froze to death from exhaustion, seeing that the last horse was foaming at the mouth, if it didn't end the formation, the rest of the road would have to go by itself.

Thankfully, they're back, not in human form.
