Chapter 859: Xingshi asks for guilt
Su Ren's words were simple, but Zhang Qian had to break his leg and waist. Those who are willing to join the Han www.biquge.info need to be registered, and the property and livestock left by the Qiang leaders need to be counted, and the distribution method needs to be formulated. Everything needs to be handled by Zhang Qian, the Taishou. However, thanks to the help of Lao Wang, the businessmen of the Shuzhong Chamber of Commerce, although things are cumbersome, they are also proceeding in an orderly manner.
Looking at Zhang Qian and Lao Wang, who were busy and anxious, Su Ren sat leisurely and drank tea. For so many years, from the beginning when I just didn't want to drink boiled water to make tea, years of cultivation and exercise. Now Su Ren also began to enjoy the true meaning of tea, and slowly drank some tea ceremony.
"Lao Wang, I don't think you should follow Lao Cui when you return to Chang'an, how about making an account in my house, if Your Majesty asks me to lead the troops to the expedition in the future, you will make me a Sima, who is responsible for the grain and grass in the army? This kind of thing has to be done by experienced and real people, and I get a headache when I see these things. ”
Lao Wang was sorting out the case, and smiled: "General Su is in love, the old man has worked in the Cui family for more than 30 years, although there is no great credit, the old family owner and the young family owner also take good care of the old man, how can he abandon the employer for a little court, and then how can the old man still see people in the businessman." ”
Su Ren shook his head and sighed: "Lao Cui really can't know how to make good use of people, it's a pity, it's a pity!" ”
Zhang Qian glanced up at Su Ren: "Don't say it, thanks to Brother Wang and these businessmen this time, otherwise it would be really difficult for me to deal with it all of a sudden." ”
Lao Wang smiled again: "I have won the award, Lao Yu came to the Western Regions with Mr. Su this time, and the head of the family has repeatedly explained that he must fully cooperate, this is a trivial matter, and this is to contribute to the imperial court, and Lao Yu has no shirk responsibility!" ”
Zhang Qian nodded, and Lao Wang gave up their hands, and they got along with each other very well. Seeing Su Ren sitting on the side very leisurely, the evil anger in his chest came out again: "Okay, my General Su, if you want to drink tea, go out to drink, can you not disturb the two of us in the room?" Make such a big mess, the two of us are busy in the dark, but you are leisurely, and you get angry when you see it! ”
Su Ren laughed: "This is called a specialization in the art industry, since you have become the Taishou of the Jade Gate, these things have to be dealt with by you, it won't be long before I return to Chang'an, they are all the people under your rule, let you distribute these things to them, it is also for your sake, I am right?" Zhang Taishou? ”
Su Renxian was bored, disturbing people's offices in Zhang Qian's room, but he didn't know that sixty miles away from Yumen, someone was gritting his teeth and galloping wildly. His target is Yumen, this time he didn't just bring three or two people to play, the mighty soldiers and horses behind him have proved that the comers are not good, and if you don't get Yumen City, it is very likely that you will have to endure a war again.
The city wall of Yumen has been completed, and Su Ren not only built the city according to the basic style of the Han Dynasty, but also used many new means of building the city invented by later generations. For example, the urn city and the watchtower are Su Ren's inventions. A piece of the smooth wall suddenly protruded, forming an angle between the two walls, and the besiegers would be exposed to at least two attacks as soon as they approached the wall.
In addition, according to the topography of Yumen, Su Ren built more than a dozen beacon towers on the top of the hill on the left and right sides of Yumen City. As long as someone pays attention to Yumen City, it can be found sixty miles away during the day, and it will also be found thirty miles away at night. Although the distance is not long, at least it has bought a little time for Jade Gate City to prepare.
The beacon fire suddenly came out from the top of the mountain in the north, and the people of Yumen, who were not used to this way of transmitting news, did not react, and stopped their work one by one and looked up at the billowing smoke rising into the sky. Hawking followed Su Ren around Yanmen Pass, he naturally saw wolf smoke, and when he saw the smoke for the first time, he immediately felt that something was wrong.
"Captain Zadu, hurry up and lead the troops to the city, the enemy is coming from the north!"
Zaji has already stood on Su Ren's side with all his heart, sparing his life is only secondary, he saw the despicability and shamelessness of the fan bone, felt Su Ren's sincerity, and made his own decision. Hearing Hawking's orders, and seeing the wolf smoke transmitting the message, he also knew that the matter was serious, and immediately ordered someone to blow a trumpet to warn. While putting on his armor, he strode straight to the north gate.
"Woo......" The low horn suddenly sounded. Hawking kept urging Black Wind to speed up, loudly warning pedestrians on the road to pay attention while running wildly.
As soon as Su Ren finished drinking a cup of tea, he heard the sound of a bull's horn. Zhang Qian threw down his pen and looked out the window: "It's the north, and the wolf smoke has risen!" It's not the Huns! ”
Han Qing hurriedly ran in, not caring about Shi Li: "Sir, King Hutu is coming with an army of 30,000 troops, and there are still fifty miles away from the city!" ”
"Hugh slaughter king?" Su Ren was a little puzzled.
Zhang Qian frowned and said: "You have set up someone at the cold wind mouth, this time the king of Hugh Tu is probably not good!" ”
Su Ren thought for a while and threw down the tea bowl: "Let's go, go and see!" ”
Hawking jumped off the war horse and happened to meet Su Ren who was about to go out: "Big brother, the enemy attack in the north, it should be the Huns, Zaji has already led people to the city, Xiaobao and Zhang Tong led the cavalry out of the city to investigate, Wu Pu also began to organize people to transport the equipment to defend the city, this time the Huns may not give up!" ”
Su Ren is very satisfied with Hawking's arrangement, after following him for so many years, Hawking has transformed from a stupid child to a qualified general, at least in this matter, the arrangement is very appropriate.
Su Ren nodded: "They are still fifty miles away from the city, don't rush to start fighting first, guard the city, and listen to what they have to say first!" ”
Fifty miles is not long for the cavalry to complete. The incident of the cold wind mouth made King Hugh Tu furious, one of the generals was killed in battle, and more than a thousand warriors were killed, but he got nothing. At the beginning, Su Ren told him very well, how many livestock, how many goods. But in the end? Even if there were no livestock, there was no goods, and not even a Qiang man was left for him. No matter how good his temper is, how can he swallow his anger after being deceived?
As soon as the spur raised his hand, the first one reined in the war horse, and the army behind him immediately stopped. Yumen City is in front of you, and you haven't encountered any resistance along the way, which means that the city is ready. This time, the king personally raised the teacher to ask for the guilt, if Su Ren could not give a satisfactory answer to the king, only the chickens and dogs would be left behind in the attack on Yumen City. These are the king's exact words.
"Rest in line, send someone to inform the king, we have arrived at the Jade Gate City! It seems that Su Ren is also ready! ”
The herald agreed, turned his horse's head and ran backwards.
Zaji held on to the female wall, looked at the huge cavalry team in front of him, and swallowed unconsciously. Hawking patted him on the shoulder: "What? Scared? ”
Zaji rolled his eyes: "This is only the vanguard of the Huns, there are three thousand people, and it is estimated that the number of the army is at least twenty thousand!" ”
Hawking smiled: "It's not 20,000, it's 30,000, and it's King Hugh Tu himself who leads the army!" ”
"Ahh Zaghi exclaimed. Hawking laughed: "Thirty thousand scared you like this, I think when I was in Mayi with my eldest brother, the Huns led an army of 200,000 people, and the eldest brother's brows didn't wrinkle, and the 30,000 Huns didn't take it seriously, as long as the eldest brother used a little force, they could return home!" ”
Zaji peeked at Su Ren, who was standing on the city tower talking and laughing, and admiration immediately appeared in his chest. For Su Ren, he didn't have much contact. In the past, I only heard people occasionally mention that one person persuaded 100,000 yuan of mountain thieves, and the other opened up the Yelang trade road, and single-handedly provoked them to fight endlessly, and even dared to go deep into the hinterland of the Yue people with only tens of thousands of county soldiers. Today, he really saw what it means to be a big man in the country between talking and laughing.
"Thirty thousand, that's a lot! King Hugh Tu seems to be really angry this time! ”
Han Qing said: "They lost their troops and lost their troops at the cold wind outlet, but they didn't get anything, and whoever they put on them will be angry!" This time, I'm afraid that I can't solve the problem by saying, so why not let Shi Bao prepare something else, so as not to be attacked by the Huns? ”
Su Ren smiled: "I want to too, but that thing was used up last time, if the Huns attack the city, we can only fight hard!" ”
"Ahh There are not many people in our hands, the guards are about five hundred, and the rest are all Qiang people, so we can't let them out of the city, in case these guys turn against each other, Yumen will be completely hopeless! ”
Su Ren was also a little helpless: "Then what can you do?" Isn't there a soldier in your family? ”
"Hold on and wait for help, I have sent someone to send a message to Shanshan and Hami, as long as we insist on sending troops to these two places, the Huns will retreat without a fight!"
"Shanshan and Hami? Shanshan has Wang Hui and Lao Gou in charge, they will definitely send reinforcements, Hami is not necessarily, if we don't stab us again, I can't ask for it, I don't expect them to rely on themselves! Su Ren shook his head: "It's so decided, I believe that Zaji once, if he can say that he will go to Hugh Tuwang, maybe he will fight!" Things have already been done, and it is useless to regret them! He turned his head to Huang 13 and said, "Orders everywhere!" The Huns approached a few and killed! ”
The intention of King Hutu is very obvious, that is, to ask the teacher for guilt. The reason why he brought so many soldiers was completely to put pressure on Su Ren. If it really starts, Su Ren will be able to stop his Xiongnu warriors with the Yumen city wall, and even if he finally breaks through the Yumen, he will definitely lose more than he loses. Now that the actions on the grassland have become more and more obvious, Yi Zhiyi has firmly gained the upper hand, if he waits for Yi Zhiyi to defeat Yu Dan, and he has no soldiers and horses in his hands, he will be able to see the end.
King Hutu came to the front of the war and looked up at the city: "Let Su Ren come out and answer!" ”
Su Ren smiled, probed out of the female wall, but was pulled back by Huang Shisan. At the same time, an arrow the thickness of a thumb flew past Su Ren's scalp, nailed heavily to the newly repaired city tower pillar, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling. Su Ren was frightened, and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.
"There are sharpshooters! King Hugh Tu is too despicable! Hawking was furious and turned around to take people out of the city.
"Come back!" Su Ren stabilized his mind and shouted to Hawking: "He wants me to demonstrate again, if he wants to shoot me, he will shoot me a long time ago!" ”
