Chapter 8 Entering the Yuan Kingdom
In the tent, Spraylight slept on his stomach, and Min'er lay down next to him. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
After a long time, Chen Guang didn't fall asleep, as soon as he closed his eyes, the silly-looking face of Wu Xin when he laughed would appear in his mind.
It's a pity that I won't see it again.
"Did you sleep?" Chen Guang said softly.
Min'er replied, "No." ”
"Why don't you sleep?" Chen Guang asked.
Min'er said: "If you don't sleep, I can't sleep." ”
Chen Guang sighed and said, "What happened tonight was too sudden. I'm going to straighten it out. I have a question, though. ”
Min'er asked, "What's the question?" ”
"They are much more numerous than us, and their combat effectiveness is also high, why would they withdraw?"
This is indeed the question that Chen Guang has been thinking about,
At that time, the Huns were in full swing, even if Chen Guangyong killed the Quartet, it was just one person, and there were so many people on the other side, it was not an order of magnitude at all, as long as they worked harder, they would be able to succeed, why retreat?
Min'er thought for a moment and said, "Maybe they were scared when they saw that you were too powerful and too desperate." As the saying goes, those who are horizontal are afraid of being stunned, and those who are stunned are afraid of dying. ”
Chen Guang smiled bitterly: "Are you sarcastic or praising me?" ”
"Praise, of course! Do you know? In the desert, in the steppe, camels and horses and sheep are the most valuable treasures, even more precious than people, and if you kill many of their horses at once, in their opinion, it is the most serious loss, and they may rob us all, but it is not worth such a big loss, so they feel that the gain outweighs the loss, and they retreat. I guess that's how it should be. Min'er said.
Chen Guang suddenly felt very surprised, and said, "There is still this statement? ”
"Yes, cattle and sheep are property, just like women." Min'er said.
Chen Guang smiled slightly and said: "You are you, not any property, what pigs, dogs, cattle and sheep, even if there are thousands of heads, they can't compete with one ten-millionth of yours." ”
Min'er was stunned all of a sudden, and drove without saying a word, which caught people off guard.
"This ...... Am I really that important? With a shy expression on her face, Min'er curled up beside Chen Guang and asked in a low voice in a very happy tone.
Chen Guang did not hesitate to reach out to her, hugged her closer to him, and said: "Of course it is important, the most important woman in this world, except for my mother, is you." ”
"Then, what about Sister Zhou?" Min'er asked.
Chen Guang secretly screamed badly, this is smooth, forgetting that there is another one at home, which is very embarrassing. Fortunately, Zhou Zhiruo is not here now, Chen Guang didn't want to think about it, and said, "You come first, you are a big house." ”
Well, talk to the girl, be bold and thin-skinned, and the girl won't be able to run away.
After a few words, Min'er was coaxed very happy, and even after falling asleep, the corners of her mouth were slightly upward, and she might still be smiling in her dreams.
Chen Guang couldn't help but sigh, women need protection, and their brothers' subordinates also need protection, and although he is now a prince, he doesn't even have this bit of guardian power, which is really sad.
In fact, all dynasties, whether it is a prince or a prince, there are so-called parties, these parties are not only officials in the court, but also private armies, merchant forces, etc., forming a complete system, this system is hidden in a dark corner, and when the right opportunity is right, it will explode and grow savagely.
Chen Guang is fully qualified to engage in this kind of force, and hopes that the project will be very profitable, and in addition to the ones that have been handed over to the state treasury, a large part of them will be owned by him personally, and they will be able to fully support a part of the armed forces. But Chen Guang is reluctant to do this, although it is a means to maintain his position as the crown prince, but as long as the emperor finds out, or as long as the emperor feels that you have overstepped and threatened his dignity and rule as the emperor, then there is no need to think about it, the prince will be replaced every minute, and his life will not be guaranteed. History is not without such examples. So, this is the practice of the sword going sideways.
And Chen Guang's current choice is undoubtedly the safest, everything is under Chen Ang's nose, and the money earned by the hope project is also completely well documented by the imperial court, and most of it is also handed over to the state treasury. When this emperor needs to rely on the crown prince, isn't this more reliable than forming a gang?
However, the consequence of this is that Chen Guang does not even have a private armed force, and it is Wu Xin's twenty brothers who can completely obey his own dispatch, and now Wu Xin is still dead.
Chen Guang felt sorry for Wu Xin, and at the same time he was also very angry and annoyed, he wanted to avenge Wu Xin, and he wanted to level the Huns.
Although the Xiongnu were not as large as the Qianguo and the population of the Qianguo, the products could not catch up with the horse. But the Huns are fierce and strong, and the individual combat ability is extremely strong, which is very difficult to do, so if you have a hard fight with the Huns, even if there are more people, you may not be their opponent.
You can only outwit, not attack. This is the general policy of fighting the Huns.
And this outwitting, Chen Guang, as a traverser, can let the friends in the live broadcast room find countless solutions in minutes.
Chen Guang thought about these things, fell asleep in a daze, and when he got up the next morning, he felt that the air was a little humid, and there seemed to be a fog faintly, Min'er was no longer around, and he didn't know where to go, he got up and moved his body that was a little sore, numb, swollen and painful, and felt that the wound on his back seemed to be much better, and he immediately felt very relieved, fortunately he was not infected or anything, otherwise he would have suffered.
At this time, Min'er came in with a tray, and when she saw Chen Guang getting up, she said, "Your Highness, let's eat." ”
Chen Guang asked, "What time is it?" ”
"It's three quarters, it's still early."
"Oh."
After eating, Wu Xin was buried, tossed for more than an hour, the sun was already high, so the camp set off, simply here is not far from the Yuan country, in order to avoid extraneous branches, everyone quickly marched, it only took half a day to reach the border of the Yuan country.
The border between the Yuan Kingdom and the Xiongnu State is an iron fence that stretches for an unknown distance, with deserts on both sides, uninhabited, and no fortresses, and some desert animals can walk through here at will.
"It's not suitable for people to live here, and it's impossible to herd cattle and sheep, so no one has ever walked at all, and only by walking eighty miles here can there be a small town." Without waiting for Chen Guang to ask, Min'er took the initiative to explain.
Chen Guang understands this, the borders of many countries are like this, located in the middle of the desert, and there is nothing to guard, maybe the countries on both sides will not care whether these barbed wire stakes have moved a foot to your side or a foot to my side. The so-called refusal of the state to give up an inch of land is just a slogan, and even if some places are willing to give in, others may not be willing to ask for it.
Unless there is oil in the ground.
Chen Guang took a shortcut and passed through a Xiongnu land, and he also paid a heavy price for this shortcut, and now he finally entered the territory of the Yuan Kingdom safely. (To be continued.) )
