Chapter 20: Peacock Villas

The country of Korea gradually stabilized, and Wei Man admired Wang Jun's talent. Wei Meng was very worried about the lack of news from Wei Meng in Bazhou, so he asked Wang Jundao: "Natural Taoist, I am very worried about my son who is far away in Bazhou, and there is no news, so I hope he can return!" Wang Jun sighed: "Wang, last night I watched the sky and saw the fall of the ten stars, which was very tragic, and the second star was red, that is the miraculous general Wei Man, he is no longer alive!" When Wei Man heard this, he wept: "My son! I don't want you to walk in front of your father! Wang Jun said: "I also saw that the North Star was dim, and the eight continents were degraded, barbaric, backward, and closed, and barbarians were everywhere, fighting for territory and chaos. Wei Man said: "Now with the national strength of North Korea, there is no time to take care of Bazhou!" Wang Jun said: "Wang, in fact, you should be more worried about the Wuhuan people who are on the expedition, they are winning on the battlefield one after another, if they learn that the Jizi Royal Court does not exist, what will they think!" Wei Man exclaimed: "The Wuhuan army is unstoppable under the wisdom of your brother Tianhao Daoren!" Wang Jun smiled and said: "Wang, I know that you are the master, so I let you destroy the royal court that exists by reputation, the royal court is not centralized enough, sooner or later things will come, the Korean state is highly centralized, and over time, it will definitely be stronger than the former royal court!" I will write to my brother and persuade Wuhuan to be friendly with North Korea in Buxiandong! Wei Man said: "This is very good! ”

Hu Wangyi led the Wuhuan army, and Tianhao was the strategist, all the way north, attacking the city and plundering the land, and advancing at great speed. The Huns also gathered and contracted in the face of the Wuhuan iron cavalry, and did not dare to underestimate the enemy.

One day, the Wuhuan army met a city, especially majestic and tall, luxurious and magnificent, there was a peacock pattern on the city gate, Tianhao Dao people suddenly had a headache when they arrived here, and said: "The Peacock King is the Holy Spirit of the Holy Land, why is it here!" Seeing that the military advisor Wang Yang had a headache, everyone retreated twenty miles and stationed to let the military advisor recuperate. Yi is also strange, why there is such a spectacular Peacock City in the wilderness! But it's not a building in the Western Regions! General Di said to King Hu: "I have been in the Xiongnu for so many years, and I have never heard of Peacock City!" Lord Bin had traveled the world, and after checking it, he came back and said to King Hu: "This is a powerful building in the extreme west, and it must be that Mao Dun called on the Xiongnu merchants to prepare for the construction of this city, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, and is extremely strong." Yi sighed: "Today's military division is sick, and there is no good plan for the time being!" Our iron horsemen are helpless against such a city! ”

Several days have passed, but the military division has not improved. Bin said to King Hu: "King, it is better for our army to temporarily retreat and consolidate the existing territory is the best policy!" Yi said: "I also know that blindly adventuring will make the army tired, but the military advisor said that attacking as defense and attacking as advance is the best tactic to deal with the Huns!" ”

One day, King Hu asked the spies to infiltrate Peacock City, it turned out that this city was indeed built on the basis of the original small city by Mao Dun, but the locals called this city Guanglu City, which had the same name as the Guanglu City where the previous attack on Xin was stationed. After Hu Wangyi learned the news, he was also very puzzled about what the purpose of Mao Dun was to build this city. At this time, the huge Wuhuan army, with the addition of the Western Regions Alliance Army and the northern tribes, King Hu ordered a heavy army to surround Peacock City. When the military advisor Wang Yang's condition improved, he went to ask for advice.

Wang Yang was supported by others, looked at the sky above Peacock City, and saw that the black clouds continued all day long, and the torrential rain continued, so he said: "This city is a city without people, it seems that it can't be taken lightly!" King Hu said: "The spies have mixed into the city, and the people are bustling with people buying and selling, how can it be a city without people!" Wang Yang sighed: "The Huns have many witches, before entering the city, you must worship your ancestors, so that you can enter with peace of mind!" King Hu agreed.

On the auspicious day, Wuhuan and a group worshiped the ancestors and ancestors, so that people knocked open the city gate and entered, the result was empty, all the soldiers were surprised, King Hu walked into the palace in the city, there is a throne inside, on the golden staircase, engraved with the image of a peacock opening the screen, King Hu praised: "What a peacock throne!" Then he sat up with great interest, and said to himself in intoxication: "How difficult is it to take the world!" After a long time, King Hu refused to leave the throne, and unconsciously fell asleep on the throne, whispering: "I am the proud Peacock King!" "When the meal was served, the waiter brought the food, and King Hu sat on the throne and ate it.

At this time, Wang Yang couldn't help but fall into deep thought when he saw King Hu so intoxicated in the luxurious palace, and then a close attendant came and said, "Master Commander, a letter from Xubei is here!" Wang Yang unfolded it, suddenly spit blood from his mouth, and muttered: "Brother, you let the Wuhuan army lose the sky, what a sin!" It turned out to be a letter from a natural Taoist.

King Hu saw that the military advisor was sick again, and hurriedly asked: "I don't know what urgency makes the military advisor anxious, recently the military advisor is like Bingheng before he left, which makes me so worried!" Wang Yang sighed: "Wang, now that the court of Jizi no longer exists, the Wei family has established the Korean state in Wang Jiancheng in the city of ten thousand cities, we have all become a guillotine army, and the victorious division has become a declining division, and now the king is intoxicated with the peacock dream designed by Mao Dun, why don't you make me angry!" After hearing this, King Hu was silent for a long time, and said to the military advisor: "Since I, King Hu, am here, how can I say that Wuhuan is a guillotine army, should we continue to fight now, or return to Wuhuan!" Wang Yang said: "The Korean country has no hostility towards Wuhuan, we have conquered more than half of the land of the Xiongnu, we directly point to the main force of Maotun and fight hard!" King Hu agreed, and immediately ordered his men to destroy this peacock city, King Hu was heartbroken when he saw the destruction of the city, but still continued to embark on the journey.

Mao Dun got the report, heard that the hundreds of thousands of people of King Hu hesitated in Guanglu City, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice that a majestic city in the extreme west actually contained hundreds of thousands of troops, and then went south to recover the lost territory, and it was a success. After that, Mao Dun received the news of the destruction of the Jizi Royal Court, and said to the Xiongnu warriors: "The Jizi Royal Court does not exist, we will destroy the remnants of this gang, and in the end the field still belongs to the Huns, we can no longer give in, take out our fierceness!" ”

King Hu knew that the main force of Maodun turned to the south, unstoppable, and recaptured a lot of lost territory, very angry, and at this time, the news of the collapse of the Jizi royal court gradually became known, and many Western Regions coalition troops left the Wuhuan army, and the northern tribes also left one after another, because without the royal court as a cohesion, the Wuhuan army became alone.

Finally, on the field, Yi and Mao Dun met, started a dark fight, bow to crossbow, armor to warriors, iron cavalry to iron cavalry, this is a contest of strength, full of three days and three nights, suddenly a rainstorm, it rained so much that the enemy in front of him could not be seen, King Hu ordered, the army retreated, in order to take it later, Wang Yang suggested: "Wang, can not withdraw the army, must fight to the death, if we withdraw the army, the Xiongnu are strong, and there is no chance to defeat them!" King Hu said angrily: "My people are almost gone, can you leave some people for Wuhuan?" Wang Yang saw that King Hu did not take the opinion, and in the rainstorm, he raised his sword angrily and sighed: "Brother Bingheng, I have failed your entrustment!" "Saying that, he killed himself.

King Hu didn't look back, led the crowd to evacuate, until he came to the ruins of Peacock City, stationed, counted the number of people, but there were only 20,000 horses. King Hu looked at the ruins of Peacock City and scolded: "If it weren't for listening to Wang Yang's nonsense, we wouldn't be facing a ruin today, but we still have the invincible Peacock City to rely on!" Everyone saw that King Hu's temper was getting more and more irritable, and they were all silent.

At night, Bin, Dianyang, Di, Gaga, and other generals all abandoned the camp. The next day, King Hu knew that everyone was leaving, and seeing that he was lonely, in desperation, he decided to lift his spirits and said to the soldiers: "Although only we are left after the bloody battle with the Huns, but the Huns are no better, I decided to go north and point directly at Longcheng to make the final fatal blow!" Immediately, King Hu led the crowd to attack Longcheng, but he was ambushed by Maodun again, and King Hu's army was completely dispersed, and they fled in the direction of Xubei.

After Maudun won the war, he sent an envoy to Korea and said to Wei Man: "My Huns are invincible, and I am willing to make friends with the newly established country Korea!" Wei Manzi was full of promises, and said to the envoy: "Convey Mao Dun Shan Yu, North Korea will regard the Xiongnu as friendly brothers, the Xiongnu to Shenzhou, the Western Regions, North Korea has given support, North Korea is still weak, working in the north of the void, so after the court of the Jizi Dynasty, there is an independent Xiongnu field!" "Mao Dun received a reply from the king of Joseon, full of joy, bold and assured to go around to discuss, so that Ding Ling, Hun Geng, Qu Shot, Qi Kun, Xinli and other tribes surrendered one after another, and launched the devouring of the countries of the Western Regions, controlled the Yue clan in the Yili River Valley, put their Hun merchants far to the west, told the extreme west countries, the most powerful in the east is no longer the court of Jizi, but the Xiongnu, Mao Dun indulged his subordinates, went south to plunder Shenzhou, broke through the city, the Yunzhong region was attacked by 30,000 Xiongnu troops, and Gansu City gathered 140,000 Xiongnu troops. Soon, he received an envoy from Shenzhou to repair it, saying that Liu had a daughter who wanted to marry the Xiongnu, and this time he wanted to marry the prince Ji Congee who would succeed to the throne in the future.
