Countless fluttering flags, the generals of the Qin army, lined up in rows, neatly lined up, with strict spears, all held their heads high, silently looking at the supreme commander on the wooden platform, making the last instructions before the expedition.
“…… The world has been suffering from Hu Qian for a long time! Our parents, wives and children, clansmen Sangzi, who dares to say that they have not been devastated by the Hu people! Today, thanks to my Majesty's thunder and lightning sweep, cast my Great Qin, and save the world from peril. We should just unite as one, like steel and iron, and expel Hu Lu as soon as possible, so that the relatives in the rear can live a peaceful life! ”
"Ladies and gentlemen! Now, our army has been forced by the enemy to the bank of this great river, and there is no way to advance or retreat. And the pseudo-Zhao has always hated me, and he is even cruel and tyrannical, so we surrender and die, flee and die, and kill the enemy. There is also no way to live, why don't you kill the enemy to the death, be a horse leather shroud, and a vigorous husband! ”
The soldiers below, hearing this, began to whisper one after another, and everyone knew that there was no advance or retreat, and all of them had the idea of death, and even their eyes became sharp.
Han Yong nodded, and continued: "In order to lure the enemy, Han was defeated again and again, and now it is reported that Zhixiong has basically lost his vigilance and is coming arrogantly, less than ten miles away from me, the big war is coming, success or failure in one fell swoop!" ”
"In this battle, we should put it to death and come back to life. If defeated, Han will never steal his life, and he should die in battle to thank the Son of Heaven and the monarchs. If he wins, Han once did not hesitate to resist the holy decree in order to lure the enemy, and the Son of Heaven was furious. In the future, it will be difficult to protect the sin of great disrespect, and I am afraid that there will be accidents. But as long as he can defeat Qiangkou, even if he asks for a killing, Han has no regrets! I only hope that you will work hard to kill the enemy, and Han will die with a smile! ”
As he spoke, the earth began to shake, and there was already a faint noise of shouting in the distance, and he climbed high and looked, on the horizon, with the smoke and dust covering the sun, the Zhao army all over the mountains and fields quickly pressed down. Han Yong's face was resolute, and he sharply ordered General Zuo to raise the banner of Great Qin. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the black daqi flies proudly and unyieldingly. The rumbling drums of war were beating, and the heart-pounding horns were blowing. In the endless burning gaze like a blazing fire, Han Yongshu pulled out his sword, shouted with all his strength, and gave the order to attack.
"The power of Great Qin is invincible!"
At the beginning of March of the sixth year of Qin Tiansheng, a total of more than 200,000 troops of Qin and Zhao encountered on the bank of the Yellow River in Wen County, and a great war broke out. There were more than a dozen fierce battles before and after, and the sun and moon were wiped out, and the blood flowed like a river. From morning to dusk, the Qin army fought to the death, killing many people, but none of them fled, the general Han Yong was wounded and bleeding elbows, but still never retreated and shouted a fierce battle, and the rest became more and more fierce and decided, like a landslide and the ground cracked. The Zhao army finally became frightened, and the 130,000-strong army fell apart, all of them were defeated, and the commander Zhixiong was only spared. Xingyang's Shi Hu was supposed to be defeated, so the two echoed each other and forced the tiger prison and Luoyang. Shocked to hear the news of the defeat, knowing that the situation was irretrievable, and Luoyang was difficult to try again, he burned Xingyang and fled back to Hebei overnight. The battle of Qin Zhaowen County ended in a crushing victory for the Qin army.
When the good news came, Luoyang was empty, regardless of the people's soldiers, all poured into the streets, cheering, excited to the whole city boiling, and the gloomy clouds and mist that had been suppressed for a long time finally dissipated. Emperor Gao Yue sighed for a long time, and sent an edict to Wen County, promoted Han Yong to the general of the Great Sima, and awarded the special title of Shangzhu State, and all the generals of the parallel march were rewarded.
Half a month later, the army returned with a boost of strength. Emperor Gao Yue led hundreds of civil and military officials, personally out of Luoyang City ten miles away to greet him, and prepared a Huangluo umbrella cover, Han Yong. Before the army arrived, all the soldiers saw the emperor, they all thundered with joy, and they all bowed, and the atmosphere was extremely high.
When the Chinese army arrived, Han Yong was lying on a stretcher, unable to move, weakly supported by his elbows, but he had to get up and bow to the ground.
"Brother Han!"
Gao Yue hurriedly stepped forward, held Han Yong tightly, stared at him for a long time, and choked up: "Brother is so devastated that I am covered in devastation, I am both painful and remorseful, and I am ashamed to see the old man!" Now I vow to let my brother rest with the country! ”
Han Yong's nose fluttered, and he said words of apology in his mouth, but he still wanted to get up and worship, Gao Yue resolutely stopped him, and looked back and said loudly: "Umbrella come!" ”
Zhou Panlong stepped forward with a Huang Luo umbrella. In the limelight, Gao Yue took the umbrella cover with his own hands and said to the ministers: "Da Sima, my heart, the head of the country." Ladies and gentlemen, today I should be the chief Sima personally in charge of the guard of honor, a little bit of heart! ”
Han Yong was shocked, sweating like pulp, and hurriedly said that he must not be so respectful and humble, and he would be a subordinate to the king. But after explaining, Gao Yue had already held up the Huang Luo umbrella cover, put it on Han Yong's head, and held the stretcher with his hand, and gave the order to enter the city.
This unique and huge favor made Han Yong lie down weakly, unable to say a word, and held Gao Yue's hand tightly, tears welled up in his eyes silently. When everyone saw it, they all sighed with admiration. Then they all bowed down and shouted Long live Daqin!
Qinghai. Aung Thanh.
In a gorgeous tent decorated with white sable fur and golden eagle feathers, Jiang Cong, the leader of the Qiang tribe, was talking to the guests. said that it was a guest, but in fact, it had only been half an hour, and it was suddenly found at the door, which was considered an uninvited guest. Although Jiang Cong didn't even ask his name, he finally heard that he had reported his identity, and he was an envoy of Qin.
For Qin, a powerful neighbor, although Jiang Cong had never dealt with it and did not know any important members of Qin, he was still very jealous in his heart. What kind of benevolent invincible king's road is mighty, for Jiang Cong, it is all a false trick pulled out by the Han people, and when necessary, they can all be thrown aside. The only thing he feared was force, and the force of the Qin State was so strong that he had to look at this strange visitor who came suddenly.
"This, uh, although the honored guest is from afar, but this king looks at you, and it seems that you are a good son of our Qiang tribe, not an outsider! Come, this fat meat is carefully made, and you can taste it. ”
Xiqiang people, most of them do not like to eat fresh pork, they slaughter the pig into several large pieces, after hanging high, smoke slowly with a small fire and thin smoke, called pig fat, after preserving for a year or more, the flavor is particularly good, cut into slices when eating, stacked in the plate, feast or accompany the wine, refreshing.
The Qin envoy gently picked up a piece of fat meat and put it in his mouth, chewed it a few times, and nodded with satisfaction: "Hmm." I left my hometown in the past year, and I have never eaten such authentic and delicious fat meat for more than ten years, and the big boss gave me a taste of home when I was a teenager, which is very good. ”
As Jiang Cong expected, Qin Envoy was indeed a Qiang man. And although he has an ordinary face and a medium figure, he has a calm and calm atmosphere on his body, which makes Jiang Cong also happy to treat him politely. The two sides ate and talked, and after a while, the Qin envoy turned to the topic.
"Thank you to the Great Chief. I came here without telling you this time, and to tell you the truth, I also came for the future of your department. Great Chief, I only ask you one word, do you have the strength to compete with my Great Qin? ”
Contend? Are you kidding. Jiang Cong's sphere of influence, excluding the clansmen who hunted and scattered, is really such a city as Angcheng. Don't say that it is a country of its own, it is reluctant to say that he is a separatist force. He has heard of the outstanding combat power of the Qin State, especially recently heard that in the east, a shocking battle broke out with the powerful Shi Zhao, and finally won the battle, defeating more than 100,000 Zhao troops in one fell swoop, and greatly injured Shi Hu's vitality.
Jiang Cong's face turned a little red, but he hesitated not to answer. Qin made him so straight to the point, so that he couldn't get off the stage, after all, he was on his territory, and he was also the only emperor of the soil, and there were guards and maidservants in the big tent, how could he immediately succumb?
"The envoy has come from afar, and this king respects you as a distinguished guest. It is true that your country is the leading power in the world, but our ministry has never been entangled with your country, so why should we send an envoy here to humiliate and intimidate this king! ”
After all, it is to be faced, Jiang Cong said with a somewhat unhappy look, and said angrily. If it were someone else, he would have scolded him for getting out, and even whipped him to relieve his anger first. But this messenger, the forces behind him really can't be provoked, so Jiang Cong left room and couldn't hold back from having a seizure on the spot.
Unexpectedly, the Qin envoy did not have the slightest intention of appreciating it, but suddenly his face fell, and he said in a fierce voice: "The great leader has openly offended the authority of my Great Qin, and he dares to say that he has no entanglement?" ”
"You're ......! I ......"
Jiang Cong was ashamed and angry, his round eyes kept blinking, reflecting the confusion in his master's heart. Suddenly, his heart moved, and he began to feel a little uneasy.
"Murong Tuyan is arrogant and domineering, and he is not subservient. My Emperor His Majesty Long Yan was furious, so he sent a heavenly army to conscript, and now Tuyan has been defeated again and again, and most of the land has been taken by me, and when he is about to exterminate it in one go, why does the big leader take the liberty of harboring and shielding Tuyan, and there is a sense of collusion, so he asked face to face, dare the big leader think that he is stronger than Shi Hu? ”
Sure enough, Qin Envoy's interrogation was exactly the contradiction he had just thought of. After a while, Jiang Cong argued: "Tuyan offended your country, and the specific circumstances are not known to this king, nor do he have any involvement. But he and Ben Wang have been old friends for many years, and their relationship is extremely close. How can an old friend sit idly by when he suffers? ”
"It's right, yes. But is it a little unwise to think that only for the sake of private petty righteousness will drag the entire tribe into the abyss of no return, as a big leader? ”
Qin Envoy stared at Jiang Cong tightly with a pair of shining eyes, but said unhurriedly: "Besides, since he is known as an old friend for many years, doesn't the big leader know that Tuyan is cunning and changeable?" I tell you, you can't bear to try against him, but he's going to harm you! ”
Some wanted to refute the Qin envoy and don't provoke it in person like this, but Jiang Cong's heart jumped suddenly, making him stop. He looked at Qin Envoy with a little nervousness, and saw that he took out a piece of paper from his sleeve with an expressionless face and slowly handed it to him.
