Chapter 338: The Fall of the Xi Division
The armies on both sides of the Xi Department were slaughtered by the light cavalry on the flanks of the Great Demon Kingdom, and the troops led by the middle Turk were not much better; These cans are not bad for short sprints. As soon as the www.biquge.info two armies came into contact with the two armies, it was as if they had hit a moving mountain, and their heads were broken and bleeding.
"Woooooo The flail danced, and all the enemies around them were broken to the bone. The warriors of the Xi tribe had no ability to resist the impact of the Iron Float at all, and they were broken through the defensive formation in a single shot, and then the Iron Float slaughtered the enemy's ranks.
It was only at this time that Judu and Hanzhu knew that they were afraid, and their army of 50,000 was beaten by the enemy's 20,000 men and was powerless; On the battlefield is a one-sided slaughter!
"Retreat! Back to the camp! Back to the camp! Hanzhu didn't see it well, and hurriedly conveyed the order to withdraw the troops; Shi Danai was not in a hurry, waving the order flag; The light cavalry of the Wind Character Division came back and then pursued them.
The Iron Floaters rode their horses in hot pursuit, and behind them was a horrific corpse trampled by the heavy hooves of the horses.
Hanzhu and Ju both ordered a team of 10,000 people to break off and resist the rushing Great Demon Army, and the rest of the people began to quickly retreat to the camp. But they had not completely withdrawn into the camp, and then they shouted to kill the heavens, and then the camp was in chaos, and the tents were all set on fire, and the flames were soaring to the sky.
"Ahh Hanzhu and Ji almost didn't fall off their horses, and it turned out that the enemy was still ambushed behind them.
Behind them were Pei Xingyan, Shi Yan and Dongfang Qing, who took advantage of the Yao tribe to go to the Xi Ministry. The Tudiji of the Ya tribe has been subdued by Li Jing, and their tribe has doubled from a population of several thousand households to nearly 10,000 in recent years; And the sinicization is very fast.,I can stumble and speak some Chinese.,And I also think of myself as a descendant of Yan and Huang.。
Hearing that Pei Xingyan and they were going to conquer the treacherous Xi Ministry, they also volunteered to organize a team of 2,000 people as a pioneer to help.
They set out late, and when they arrived at Xibu, the battle had already begun. Pei Xingyan saw that the enemy's camp was empty, so he led the army to rush forward without saying a word.
There were only a few old and weak soldiers left in the Xibu battalion, which could withstand their onslaught, and they were lost with only one face. Pei Xingyan was furious now, he roared and rushed in first, and killed people when he saw them, and the army drove these civilians of the Xi Department to hula and ran towards the enemy at once.
When Hanzhu and Ju both heard that their homes were copied by the Great Demon Kingdom, they turned pale with fright; Seeing that the people rushed over without their lives, and if they waited any longer, it would be the result of the annihilation of the whole army, Hanzhu had no choice but to lead the team to turn around and retreat elsewhere.
Shi Danai and Pei Yuanqing joined forces and chased for twenty or thirty miles before they stopped. This battle killed countless enemies, and captured countless baggage; As one of the nine major Turkic tribes, the Xi tribe was almost wiped out.
Shi Danai ordered Dongfang Qing to guard the captured baggage and population in the Xi camp, and he also Pei Xingyan, Shi Yan, and Tudiji's Yan army continued to pursue the Xi people.
Hanzhu and Ji both fled to the Xiabu, where they still had their 30,000 troops to rely on. When I arrived at home, I counted the number of people, and only 20,000 of the 50,000 army returned; Moreover, the people of the Xi Department were almost completely wiped out.
Hanzhu and Convulsions were in pain, and Hanzhu scolded vigorously: "He Mo misunderstands me!" Don't mistake me! In addition to scolding the Han people, he couldn't say a word.
As soon as they said on their front feet, it didn't take long for a horse to come and report that the army of the Great Demon Kingdom had arrived and set up camp outside the camp.
"Good! This is to kill us all! Big brother, I'm preparing to rob the camp tonight; And the Han people have decided to level up, I don't know what you think? ”
Hanzhu waved his hand again and again: "Wait, let me think about it again, our strength is much worse than the Great Demon Kingdom." In this way, the hard fight will be won, and it will not be able to stop the Han army from coming to encircle and suppress it in waves. Does this outweigh the costs? ”
Judu hurriedly said: "Big brother, it's better for us to join forces with Gao Kaidao and attack Liaodong together." I believe that as soon as we make a move, Gao Kaidao will definitely be willing to take advantage of the fire to rob. ”
Hanzhu said: "You are right, Gao Kaidao is willing to help." But that premise is that he will only make a move when we are on par with the Great Demon Kingdom. If our battle is one-sided, don't even think about it if you want him to make a move. ”
"What then? Do you want to help the Turks? We have just asked for the oppression of Jieli; Do you want to give in to him again? ”
Hanzhu thought about it for a moment and said, "Cousin, this time is the time of life and death for our Xi Department. We cannot pin our hopes on one side. You take a part of the young and strong people to the Northern Wilderness, and it is up to you to decide whether to surrender to the Turks or take root in the Northern Wilderness.
I'll see Stanai tomorrow; Surrender to him! We just destroyed one of his towns, and He Mo only wanted to rob the princess of the Great Demon Kingdom; Isn't that unsuccessful? I will put all the blame on Hermo; And then compensate for their losses, hoping to get a glimmer of life. ”
"Brother, how can this be done! The people of the Great Demon Kingdom have always been unfaithful, and the hearts of those of us who are aliens will not die; How can you surrender to them! It's okay to surrender, you take people away, and I'll negotiate with them. If you want to kill, you can chop them as you like. ”
Hanzhu said with a smile: "Look, you still say that people don't pay attention to faithfulness, are you a negotiation?" If you go like this, you have to talk about it! You! It's good for everything, it's just that the temper is too short-tempered. This time I went to the Northern Wilderness, everything in the clan depends on you, and you have to think twice about everything; Take a long-term view. ”
"Brother!" He fell to his knees and wept bitterly; Hanzhu comforted her, and called several of her right-hand men to let them assist Jidu. Then he ordered the young men of the Xia Department to carry gold, silver, soft and living materials on their backs, and one person and three horses went to the northern wilderness overnight.
The next day, Shi Danai and the others were studying how to attack the Xiabu in the big tent, when they heard someone outside report that Hanzhu, the patriarch of the Xi clan, had tied himself up and asked to see the general.
Shi Danai said with a smile: "This Hanzhu also gave us a guilty plea, okay!" Let him in! I'm going to see what tricks he can do. ”
The Chinese army agreed, and it didn't take long to tie up the five flowers and bring in Hanzhu with a big stick on his back. Hanzhu no longer had the prestige of the patriarch at this time, he came in with a cloak and fell to his knees with a pop and cried: "The sinner Hanzhu has come to ask General Shi for his guilt!" As he spoke, he lay on the ground and kowtowed.
Shi Danai snorted coldly and said, "Hanzhu, since you claim to be a sinner, do you know what crime you have committed?" ”
"The sinner's subordinate He Mo raised troops in the Central Plains without authorization, and boldly attacked the towns and villages of the Great Demon Kingdom and destroyed the alliance between the two countries. Not only do I not know how to repent, but I also shield criminals in vain trying to resist the heavenly soldiers, which is really a sin that deserves death! Please ask General Shi to be extrajudicially gracious; For the sake of heaven's virtue of good life, forgive the old and young of my people. The villain is willing to sacrifice the treasure of the town clan to appease the anger of the demon king. ”
Shi Danai smiled: "Hanzhu, it seems that you still don't know what mistakes you have made!" It's not that He Mo raised troops without authorization, it was he who was ordered by you to rob our Great Demon Kingdom; Let's see what we have to do and decide whether to send another army to loot. ”
"Wronged! General Shi, wronged! The villain never thought so. ”
Shi Danai said: "You haven't thought about it, it doesn't mean that your brother hasn't thought about it like this!" Hemo is from their Misterio, right? ”
Hanzhu said angrily: "If you want to add crimes, why bother? Although he was rude, he would never do such a thing behind my back. ”
Shi Danai sneered: "You are not dead in the heart of the Yellow River." Come, bring the witnesses, and see what else he has to say. ”
After a short time, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a group of soldiers brought in a man; Hanzhu turned his head and found that it was Zhang Junli, the messenger of Gao Kaidao, who was brought in.
During the battle in Chi'an Town, Zhang Junli led people to escape; Who knew that the beacon fire in Chi'an Town ignited the flames of war in the land of Liaodong, and various towns and towns sent their townships to intercept the enemy entering Liaodong.
Zhang Junli didn't take these villagers to heart at first, and after they were interrogated, they suddenly launched an attack, although they killed a village warrior, but they were also shocked by their fearlessness. Only then did Zhang Junli know that the situation was not good; By the time he tried to run again, it was too late, and the five hundred of them were already stuck in the quagmire of the people.
They talked about feeling that there were people watching him everywhere, and at night there was a gong and the enemy came in from all directions and captured him alive.
Zhang Junli saw that the situation was not good, and without saying a word, he knelt down and surrendered, and then was sent to Shi Danai. Zhang Junli put all the blame on He Mo and Ji Du with a clever mouth. Shi Danai listened quietly and didn't say a word, so he asked him to be a witness to testify against the Ministry of Xia.
Only then did Zhang Junli know that the goal of the Great Demon Kingdom was not for them to open the way at all, but to Xi Bu. The Great Demon Kingdom is about to fiercely deter these foreign races and speed up the progress of sinicization; But there has been no excuse; I didn't expect Xi Bu to hit the muzzle.
"Slander! This is slander! Hanzhu argued loudly.
Shi Danai took out the alliance letter of Gao Kaidao to join forces with the capital to attack the Great Demon Kingdom, with the great seal and blood seal of the capital on it; This can no longer be faked. Hanzhu sat down on the ground, and secretly regretted that he had handed over all the tribes to the capital.
"The general spares his life, I really don't know about this matter! Moreover, we in the Xi tribe have always been grateful for the help of the Great Demon Kingdom and are willing to join the Great Demon Kingdom, so please ask the general to bypass my tribe for the sake of God's virtue of a good life. All the sins are willing to be borne by Hanzhu alone. ”
Shi Danai sighed and said, "That's it! If it were me, you would have been slain; However, when we came, our military advisor ordered that the Han people and other races were all one family, and they could be treated with subjugation, and if they were not cured, they would die.
I spared Xi Bu once; However, in order to deepen the relationship between the two ethnic groups, the Xi people are no longer suitable for living in the grassland. We have laid down another land in the east that is bigger than Goguryeo, and the Xi people will go where to live! ”
