Chapter 190: After Liu Jiu's Break
Liu Jiu ordered 3,000 elites, guarded at the rear of the whole army, and waited for Li Qin to chase, at this time Li Qin and the brigade of horn soldiers had slowly pressed up, but the two armies did not clash, Li Qin did not launch an attack for the time being, and Liu Jiu only begged Li Qin not to come, how dare he take the initiative to go in, the two armies fell into a confrontation stage for a while.
Liu Jiu looked at the Fujiao soldiers in the distance, and thought: "This person must be the great enemy of my Huns, and the one who killed my Huns will be Li Qinye!" ”
On the other side, Li Qin looked at Liu Jiu, and thought in his heart: "Should I send someone to meet the Hun Shan Yu, warn that bullshit Shan Yu, if you dare to indulge Liu Jiu again, then I will be unkind to him, send a large army to the grassland, if Shan Yu doesn't clean up Liu Jiu, I will have to clean up Shan Yu!" ”
In the past, how dare Li Qin think about cleaning up the Huns Shan Yu, he and Shan Yu are not at the same level at all, but now they are different, his Fujiao army is getting stronger and stronger, the soldiers are fighting more and more, and the more they fight, the stronger they are, if there is enough time, he can really repair Shan Yu, and directly drive the Huns to Europe.
At this time, the sky is getting dark, and when it is time to have dinner, the Huns do not dare to cook, although there are a lot of dead sheep, but now who dares to go to the barbecue, even if they dare to roast, they are not in the mood to eat!
Li Qin didn't care about this, he knew that Liu Jiu didn't dare to come, so he ordered the soldiers to raise the fire to make food, take the opportunity to rest, the battle to decide the outcome of the battle will not start until after dark, now if you don't eat enough to rest, how can you have the strength to let the horse chase the enemy!
The Fujiao soldiers were cooking in front of the battle, and the Huns were watching from a distance, all the Huns, including Liu Jiu, were all depressed, and some people had even begun to complain, why did they listen to Li Wenhou's words and came to Fujiao Fort to pick up the cheap, but they didn't pick up the cheap, but they were picked up by Li Qin!
The Huns of the brigade began to retreat, the people in the camp shouted and neighed, and the Fujiao army on the opposite side was also in a commotion, the Han generals who came out of Longxian County and Li Qin joined the division, the soldiers of the two sides met, and there were naturally too many things to say, the Fujiao soldiers were asking about their families, and the Han generals poured bitter water on Li Qinda, telling about the worries of being surrounded these days, and also boasted to Li Qin by the way, if it wasn't for them to contain Liu Jiu, then Fujiao Fort might not be what it would look like!
Li Qin thanked him repeatedly, no matter whether these Han soldiers helped or not, but when people came, it was a favor and a good thing, if he was lazy, there would be difficulties in Fujiao Fort in the future, and people would not come, wouldn't it be bad. Li Qin promised countless benefits, thanked the Han soldiers who came to support, and he promised that the reinforcements from all counties would be beneficial, and he would send each general a batch of novel weapons and armor made of Fujiao Fort to the satisfaction of these generals.
The benefits were promised, the victory was in sight, of course everyone was happy, and they waited for Li Qin to give the order to attack Liu Jiu again and achieve the final victory.
Finally, it was dark, and the Hun soldiers' brigade was almost gone, except for Liu Jiu's broken troops, the last Hun soldiers also left thirty miles, and the surname was safer for the time being.
Liu Jiu called a Hun soldier and said, "Go to the front and tell Li Qin that if we fight again next year, I will come again!" ”
The Hun soldiers grinned and thought: "It's really unlucky, why did you ask me to deliver the letter, I knew that this was the case, I wouldn't be so close to the king, this time it's good, close to the king, it is equivalent to being close to Li Qin, who wants to be close to Li Qin, isn't that looking for death!" ”
But the king had an order, how dare the soldiers disobey, the Hun soldiers beat their horses and galloped towards the Fujiao army, and when they were far away, he stopped and shouted: "Hey, Fujiao boy, listen, ask your leader Li Qin to come and talk......"
Before he finished shouting this, he heard the swishing sound in the night, and the horn soldier didn't care what he shouted, whoever dared to come over would shoot whom, and hundreds of feathered arrows flew over!
Fortunately, the Hun soldier was far away, and although there were many feathered arrows, none of them hit him. The Hun soldier was frightened, so he had to shout loudly: "My king has a word, tell Li Qin, you kid, wait, wait for my Hun army to come back next year, and then burn down your house and rob your food......"
Before he finished shouting, he heard the sound of horses' hooves, and it was estimated that at least hundreds of horn soldiers had come, and the Hun soldiers no longer called any more scenes, they ran away from the horses, and returned to Liu Jiu's side like a smoke. He shouted to Liu Jiu: "King Qiyu, the last general told Li Qin, Li Qin was so frightened that he didn't dare to speak out, and sent someone over to beg for mercy, do you want to see him?" ”
When the generals around Liu Jiu heard this, they all sore in their hearts, and they knew what the ability of their tongues was, what was the use of fart, and they were careful to lure the horn soldiers over, saying that they were not good, and they even said that they would come back next year, were they afraid that Li Qin would not chase us to death! But everyone only dared to scold in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it, and they didn't even dare to show their dissatisfied expressions, for fear of annoying Liu Jiu, Liu Jiu is angry now!
Liu Jiu didn't know the reason in his heart, but he waved his horsewhip and shouted: "This king does not accept Li Qin's surrender, and tells his sons and daughters that Li Qin wants to surrender, but this king refuses, unless Li Qin sends hostages to my nine accounts, don't think about a truce!" ”
The Hun soldiers hurriedly shouted out loud, and the Hun soldiers were in a better mood when they heard this, and finally the king regained some face, and they shouted in unison: "The king is mighty, the king is mighty, and I don't accept Li Qin's surrender!" ”
The 3,000 Hun soldiers shouted and shouted, judging from the momentum, it was actually a high morale, not as if they had suffered a defeat, but as if they had won a battle!
Liu Jiu waved his hand majestically and said: "Our army went south this time, won a complete victory, withdraw the army back to the grassland, tell the herdsmen the news of the victory, and make them happy and happy!" ”
The generals looked at him together and won the battle? How to explain that so many people died, and where is the loot? If you go back empty-handed, can the herders still be happy? Maybe I can't see that you can't do it, don't follow you, switch to someone else, don't talk about them, we have this idea now!
Liu Jiu took a breath and said to the generals: "What you think in your hearts, this king is clear, in the words of their Han people, our top priority is to tear down the east wall and make up the west wall, we failed to get the spoils of war in Liangzhou, but there is still the Western Regions, there is the Silk Road, the richest, and the Han soldiers are insufficient, we only need to go there and walk around, we can get enough property, and we can give an account when we go back." ”
The general hurriedly said yes, Liangzhou didn't rob, so he went to rob the Western Regions, anyway, as long as there is a benefit, where is not a robbery! It's just that the Western Regions are not as easy to grab as Liu Jiu said, strictly speaking, the Western Regions are the dishes of the Xiongnu in a bowl, otherwise Liu Jiu would have gone over to rob it a long time ago, and what else could he do in Liangzhou!
This is also a helpless thing, Liu Jiu himself said that this is called demolishing the east wall and making up the west wall, in order to be able to go back and give an explanation, not to let the nine accounts collapse, can only offend the Xiongnu Shan Yu a little, just apologize afterwards, even if Liu Jiu and Shan Yu don't deal with each other, but in the face of the common enemy of the Han Court, Shan Yu can't always face outsiders, and he still has to face Liu Jiu at the critical moment.
After shouting, Liu Jiu ordered the troops to be cut off, slowly marching to the west, ready to fight at any time, as he expected, Li Qin would definitely catch up and fight, not in the second half of the night, at dawn.
Li Qin was talking to the Han generals when he suddenly heard the Hun soldiers shouting, and he asked: "What are you shouting from the other side, are they going to take the initiative to attack?" ”
A Han general replied: "Back to Li Lang's words, listening to the sound of the Hun soldiers cheering, praising their king Liu Jiu, saying that Liu Jiu is mighty, and there is ...... Well, no. ”
Li Qin said with a smile: "How can it be gone, if the Hun soldiers are cheering, there must be a reason to cheer, they are demonstrating to us, shouting for us to fight?" He guessed that this was the case, anyway, the Huns had to fight him if they didn't shout at him, and the result was the same, so how could they not give themselves a strong reputation.
The Han general who spoke laughed dryly twice and said, "That's not it, well, it's okay, it's just nonsense anyway!" ”
But one of Li Qin's personal soldiers said: "The Hun soldiers shouted that they would not accept Li Lang's surrender, as if they were saying that you wanted to surrender, but Liu Jiu did not allow it, thinking that their king was very courageous, so he cheered!" ”
Li Qin's face sank and said, "Yes, that's how they shouted?" Then I'm sorry, they shouted so for the sake of face, then I had to chase for the sake of face! He got on his horse and shouted, "Give the order to go down, assemble the whole army, let's catch up, follow not far away, and see how they don't allow me to surrender!" ”
After hearing Li Qin's order, all the Fujiao soldiers got on their horses, followed the battle flag, and chased after the Huns. When Zhang Yi saw it, he shouted: "Li Lang, wait for me, we are friends of life and death, we are good brothers, you go to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, why don't you take me with you!" ”
Li Qin said with a smile: "Come together, the Hun soldiers' heads are there, as long as they are cut off, it will be a credit." As he spoke, he called a few horn guards and asked them to go to the fort to deliver a letter, telling Liu Sheng that he was going to chase the enemy, at least ten days, at most half a month.
The reinforcements from all over the country followed the Fujiao army and went to chase the Hun soldiers together, running and running, the reinforcements actually surpassed the Fujiao soldiers and ran to the front, and Zhang Yi ran at the front with the army, shouting excitedly!
Liu Jiu, who retreated in front, of course knew that the Fujiao army would chase after him, otherwise he could personally cut off the rear, but from the sound of horses' hooves, he estimated that at least more than 20,000 people would chase him, which was almost more than the total number of Hun soldiers, and he was afraid that the Fujiao army would not just want to chase and chase, this was to catch up and fight, and it was to annihilate the Huns!
Not only did Liu Jiu think so, but his generals also thought so, and some generals thought to themselves, why did so many people from the Fujiao Army chase after them, is it the whole army coming? Li Qin didn't go to see what losses his territory had suffered, but chased after him first, why is this? This doesn't make sense!
Well, I understand, Li Qin didn't want to chase after him, but he was stimulated by our King Liu. This King Liu is really, he has nothing to eat and is full, why did he send someone over to belittle Li Qin, this time it's okay, Li Qin called, I have to see which of you two surrendered last, but isn't this affecting us!
