Chapter 370: Eighteen beats

Hu Chuquan originally just wanted to shoot a few sycophants, so that Liu Qi could reduce the gambling money of the 10,000 horses with pleasure, but the next scene made him dumbfounded, although it was at night, but he could never forget this scene, only to hear an order, more than a thousand crossbow arrows shot out of the hundred pairs of crossbows, and shot at the target in the distance, each crossbow arrow shot through a hole in the hard arrow target.

"Such a powerful crossbow is the nemesis of the cavalry. What's even more frightening is that each pair of crossbows can fire twelve crossbow arrows at the same time, if they really meet on the battlefield, needless to say anything else, even these crossbows are enough to cause heavy losses to our army, no wonder this Duke of Chu was able to fight all the way from Jingzhou to here, conquering most of the big Han, just the crossbow is enough to make him famous all over the world. ”

When those high-ranking people in the Xiongnu camp saw this scene, they couldn't help but be glad that their Da Danyu had not made the decision to attack Chu Gong at the beginning, otherwise, these crossbow arrows would not have hit the target, but the bodies of the cavalrymen.

And after that, the Duke of Chu showed them some powerful artifacts, first of all, the saber in the hands of the Chu army, the knife looked no different from ordinary knives, but as soon as they came into contact, they knew that the knives were all knives that sharpened iron like clay, Hugh said that it was ordinary leather armor and bamboo armor, even the best iron armor could not resist the chopping of those treasure knives, they originally thought that the scimitar in their hands was sharp enough, but as long as they came into contact with the other party's treasure knife, it was like rotten wood, and it would break with a light touch.

In fact, such a treasure knife is not the biggest threat to them, because after all, these are all short weapons, as long as they are on the horse, they hold spears in their hands, they can effectively reduce the threat of those treasure knives, but the other mysterious weapon in the hands of the Chu army really frightened them.

It is said that this mysterious weapon is called the Mo Knife. It is a long-handled, three-pointed, two-edged appearance, capable of assassination, can also chop, a knife weighs more than 20 catties, seeing the sharp blade and the majestic Chu army soldiers, they will not doubt it at all. As long as they go down with a knife, Hugh said that they would be smashed, and even their steeds could be cleaved with a single sword.

"The Han army has such a powerful artifact, if our Huns are against them, it is simply no different from seeking their own death, no wonder even a brave general like Pang De will not hesitate to take refuge under the command of this Duke of Chu, and now I finally have time to reach the Tianwei of the Han army."

All the Hun generals present were shocked by the powerful weapons displayed by the Chu army, and the shock in their hearts was simply incomprehensible, and from then on. This fear began to be deeply implanted in their hearts, making them swear allegiance to the Han and the Duke of Chu, obediently accept the arrangement of the Duke of Chu, and never dare to rebel again.

In fact, this is also Liu Qi's intention to rely on powerful weapons to deter the Xiongnu, let them see the strength of the elite soldiers under his command, so that they dare not use troops against the Han, and at the same time coerce them to help the Han send troops to conquer the nearby Wuhuan and Xianbei foreign forces. Stabilize the counties of Northern Xinjiang and recover the territory of the Han family.

Pang De, who was accompanying Liu Qi, actually didn't know the strength of Liu Qi's pro-soldier team. When he saw it today, he was heartily impressed, and when he saw the thick fear in the eyes of the Huns, he couldn't help but feel big, he was also a rare brave general in the world, and he had accumulated some reputation for himself in these years of conquest, but even his former master Ma Chao. In Xiqiang, he can be regarded as a well-known hero among women and children, but those Qiang people have never been as afraid of Ma Chao as the Huns today, as for him, his strength is slightly inferior to Ma Chao, and it is naturally difficult for these aliens to be so afraid of themselves.

But today's Duke Chu has done just that. He already felt it deeply. The Huns' fear of the Duke of Chu had been deeply imprinted in their minds, which could be clearly seen from their expressions. Because those Huns no longer have the arrogance and disdain of the past, but have become like cats and mice, trembling and walking on thin ice.

Pound is used to seeing the arrogance and unruliness of the Huns, when has he seen this scene today? I couldn't help but feel ecstatic in my heart: "I, Pound, can see the Huns being so respectful to us, this life is worth it." ”

Next, Hu Chuquan opened his mouth hard, and then said cautiously: "The warriors under the command of Duke Chu are really brave and invincible, let Xiao Wang open his eyes, this time we are convinced of the loss, please rest assured that Duke Chu, we will definitely give away these ten thousand horses as promised, but Duke Chu also knows that now our clan is more difficult......

Next, I saw Liu Qi said slowly: "Lone also knows that you are difficult, so Lone naturally intends to give you convenience, so let's do it, as long as Da Dan Yu agrees to a condition for Lone, then Lone can be slowed down, so that you can return the 10,000 horses next year, in fact, if it is a big bet with Lone, Lone can be more generous, and ask you less, but since you are going to reward me with these soldiers, how can I brush your kindness?" Ha ha. ”

Hu Chuquan listened to Liu Qi's words, and couldn't help but regret it, he knew that he had tried in the name of gambling with him, but he believed that even if he really gambled on this Chu Gong in his private name, the other party would definitely find another excuse.

But when he heard Liu Qi say that he could delay the next year and pay the 10,000 horses, he couldn't help but be full of hope, after all, Chu Gong promised that as long as he could capture the building, he could let his side get half of the materials, and as long as he got the half of the materials, he would definitely be able to easily hand over 10,000 horses.

So Hu Chuquan said respectfully: "I don't know what Duke Chu commands? As long as Xiao Wang can do it, he will definitely agree. ”

Liu Qi was very satisfied with Hu Chuquan's attitude, smiled, and suddenly sighed and said: "Da Shan Yu also saw it, just now my Han family woman Cai Wenji was robbed by you because of the suffering of the war, and was forced to marry your Zuo Xian Wang, gave birth to two sons, and couldn't bear the separation of his mother and son, so he wanted to be an adult, and redeemed the second son to my big man, so that his mother and son could be reunited, I don't know what Da Shan wanted?" ”

Hu Chuquan was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, because he was worried that Liu Bao, the king of Zuoxian, would get help from the Han Dynasty because of these two sons, after all, looking at the situation in front of him, the reason why this Duke of Chu named Cai Wenji was obviously because he fell in love with her beauty, and this asked this woman to say a good word in front of Duke Chu, and Duke Chu would definitely help Liu Bao become Shan Yu. In the end, she helped her son inherit the throne, and now that Duke Chu wants these two sons back, and he will arrange for Liu Bao to marry another woman, Cai Wenji will never have anything to do with that Liu Bao again, and she will calmly concoct Liu Bao, and this Shan Yu's position will be completely consolidated in the future. In this way, after his death, Shan Yu's throne will be inherited by his son.

But Hu Chuquan did not agree directly, but hesitated for a moment, and said to Liu Qi: "Xiao Wang wants to ask King Zuo Xian about this matter, after all, this is his son." ”

After finishing speaking, Hu Chuquan turned his head and said to Liu Bao with a smile: "King Zuoxian, you also heard what Duke Chu said just now, I don't know what you think?" This king knows that he has wronged you in this way. But as long as you promise, this king will definitely compensate you, we Huns have good women who can give birth to sons, and we will definitely make your children and grandchildren full when the time comes. ”

Although Liu Bao was a thousand unwilling, under the huge pressure of Chu Gong and Hu Chuquan, and under Hu Chuquan's promise to him, he had to agree happily: "Since it is for the benefit of the clan, I, Liu Bao, are naturally duty-bound." What's more, I, Liu Bao, am the nephew of the Han family, and my two children are naturally also nephews of the Han family. And the Duke of Chu is a relative of the Han family, so he is naturally the nephew of my two children, so why not worry about me handing over the children to their mother and uncle? ”

"Hehe, the virtuous nephew said it well, that's it. The virtuous nephew can send a few reliable people to fetch the two children early tomorrow morning and give them to their mother and the Duke of Chu. Although Hu Chuquan smiled on the surface, he sneered in his heart: "Liu Bao, you kid, actually used this way to contact Chu Gong. It's just a pity, today's Duke Chu may look at Cai's face, and will treat your two sons like his own uncle, as for you, hehe, you and Duke Chu are now rivals, I love to get over and kill you, I'm afraid it's too late for Duke Chu to be happy, in a word, you will not be allowed to be this king, not allowed to be Cai's, not allowed to be Chu Gong, no matter what, you are a dead end. ”

Where would Liu Bao know Hu Chuquan's thoughts, and he was still happy that he could win over the wisdom of Chu Gong with a whim, and after listening to Hu Chuquan's words, he immediately said: "Why bother tomorrow? Look at his mother's sad appearance, how can the little nephew bear to let her wait one more night? The little nephew immediately ordered my eldest family to lead two thousand men and horses to escort the two children here overnight, hehe, in fact, the distance from the royal court to us is so far, and when they arrive, it will be tomorrow morning, they changed horses and came back, just in time to miss the return of Chu Gong to Dahan. ”

Hu Chuquan was even happier when he heard this, praised Liu Bao in person, and then according to what Liu Bao said, he ordered him to immediately send someone to the royal court to escort his two sons to Baitu.

After that, Hu Chuquan made more than a dozen Hun girls dance a cheerful dance, drank with Liu Qi, and then went back to the camp to rest.

But it was said that when Liu Qi returned to the camp, he suddenly heard the sad sound of Hu Ji in the silent night, and mixed with it was a sad low song.

"I didn't do anything at the beginning of my life, and after I was born, Han Zuo declined. The heavens are unkind, and the earth is unkind, so I am at this time. The road is in danger, and the people are in exile and mourning together. The smoke and dust cover the wilderness, and the ambition is obedient and righteous. It is not appropriate for me to be evil, and I should sue anyone who is insulted. After a while, the piano was beaten, and no one knew that his heart was collapsing and dying. ”

……

"Yannan Zhengxi wants to send the side heart, and Yanbei returns to Xi to get Hanyin. The geese fly high and difficult to find, and the jejunum is broken. Raising eyebrows to the moon and caressing Yaqin, five beats are deep. ”

……

"I am not greedy for life but evil for death, and I cannot give my life and heart. Life still hopes to return to Sangzi, and death should be buried for a long time. The sun and the moon are in Rongji, and the Hu people spoil me and have two sons. Ju Zhiyu is not ashamed, and the thought of sorrow grows on the sidelines. There is a beat in ten, and the mourning is heart-wrenching. ”

……

"Hu Ji originally came out of Huzhong, and the green qin turned out the same rhythm. Although the eighteen beats are over, there is more than enough thoughts. It is the subtle and even creation of silk bamboo. The sorrow and joy are all changed according to people's hearts, and Hu and Han Xi are exotic. Heaven and earth are separated from the west, mother and east, and I am bitter and resentful in the sky. Liuhe should not tolerate it. (To be continued......)
