Chapter 108: A Hill of Human Heads
This sudden news made Hu Hai temporarily give up the idea of continuing to discuss with Du Teng and the others!
Hu Hai couldn't figure out why the Black Iron Xuanniao Army had such a big negligence, allowing Xiang Yu's tens of thousands of troops to disappear under his nose, but he didn't notice anything abnormal, and he didn't report any information to Xianyang and himself!
Now it seems that Xiang Liang must have used some means to deceive the soldiers of the Black Iron Xuanwu Army who were watching near Chen County, and successfully let Xiang Yu's tens of thousands of troops move lightly and simply, and lay an ambush on the road to his own return from Dongjun!
Moreover, it is obvious that Xiang Liang's army went north to Suiyang not to threaten Aocang, but to support Xiang Yu by the way, forcing himself to return to Xianyang as soon as he received the news!
From Xiang Yu's army plundering the people, Hu Hai had already guessed why Xiang Yu had marched all the way to Dongjun, why no news had leaked!
Emotions use the three-light policy of burning, strong light, and killing light! In this way, it can not only ensure the regular supply of the army's march, but also ensure that the slightest news will not be leaked!
That's a good idea!
It's just that these tens of thousands of troops have traveled hundreds of miles all the way, and how many blood debts have been created?!! I'm afraid that the place I passed was already full of corpses, and ten rooms and nine were empty!
"Bang!"
Hu Hai slammed his palm on the copper case in the big tent! Make a muffled sound!
"Hell! Really damn it! Hu Hai said angrily!
"Xiahou Ying, Fan Xu!"
"The last general!"
"The two of you immediately lead the cavalry of the headquarters out of the camp, don't fight with the Baiyue barbarians! But if you see a hundred barbarians looting, don't let go! Bring back the heads! Also avenge General Zhou Bo! Go ahead! ”
"The last will obey!"
Hu Hai watched the six thousand Great Qin Spirits rush out of the camp at a gallop along the wide-open camp gate to meet the sunset, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes!
"Long Xuan!"
"Your Majesty is here!"
"Spread the edict to the black iron, let the Xuanniao Army immediately start attacking and harassing Xiang Liang's army, there must be no mistake! Spread the edict to Xianyang, ordered the national captain Wei Lao Aiqing to lead the army to guard the various places in the Guanzhong and the army of the battalion, and ordered Zhang Han to lead the army of 200,000 to immediately send a letter to Guguan to Dingtao!
Spread the edict to Han Xin, leave 30,000 troops in Aocang, and immediately lead the rest of the army to Dingtao! Spread the edict to Li You, guard Ao Cang, if Ao Cang is unsettled, he will not be spared! Spread the edict to Feng Zai, ordered Wang Kun to guard the letter Guguan, Feng Zai led the 100,000 troops of the battalion to go south to Chen County immediately, and cut off the Liang to return to the road!
Spread the edict to the camp, and the 100,000 troops rushed to Wuguan Li Xin through the blue sky camp to listen to the order! Sent an edict to Li Xin, and the 100,000 troops of the Bashang battalion arrived, leaving 10,000 soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army to guard Wuguan, and ordered Li Xin to lead 100,000 troops to Ruyin immediately!
Ordered Feng Zai and Li Xin to kill all the remnants of the six countries who rebelled along the way! This time, I want to wipe out these rebellious ministers and thieves in one fell swoop, and turn this north of the Huai River into a burial place for the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, such as Xiang Liang! ”
"Your Majesty! ……”
The emperor's series of orders all expressed a point, he planned to really stay in Dingtao, and then attract Xiang Liang and the remnants of the six countries who are now fighting against Qin to gather in Dingtao!
Lead by example!
"Don't persuade any more! Do you think I'm still going to be gone? Hu Hai waved his hand to interrupt Du Teng's words, turned his head to look at the map and said: "Now that Xiang Yu dares to set troops to plunder the people, he will dare to slaughter the city!" Can I ignore the people of Daqin and continue to return to Xianyang? I can escape! In this way, how should the people of the world view me? How should the people of the world view me? ”
In Hu Hai's opinion, it is rare for him to come to this Daqin once, what should he really do and leave something!
If God lets you wear it, and then you really want to let yourself die in Dingtao, Hu Hai will admit it!
Life is a grand encounter!
Hu Hai thinks that he has lived a lifetime longer than others, and it is enough!
People live for a lifetime and plants and trees in autumn! Naturally, there should be something to do!
Hu Hai couldn't watch the defenseless people being slaughtered! And Xiang Yu created a precedent for slaughtering cities in Chinese history, Hu Hai happened to know about it when he was bored!!
Xiang Yu was brutal and fierce, and was the first person in Chinese history. According to the "Historical Records", in just a few years of the great chaos at the end of the Qin Dynasty, Xiang Yu had a total of six massacres and arson and plunder.
In 208 BC, Xiang Liang fought with Zhanghan, who went south to quell the rebellion, and ordered Xiang Yu to lead the main force of Jiangdong with 10,000 troops, and the light soldiers and horses flew long distances to attack Xiangcheng County in the south of Yingchuan, the grain and grass base of the Central Plains of Zhanghan and Qin's army.
At this time, Zhang Han's army pursued and killed the anti-Qin rebels in Chu with all their might, and the supporting cities of Yingchuan County were only defended by thousands of men and horses, and the soldiers and civilians in Xiangcheng were only more than 30,000 people. Suddenly encountered the thieves to attack, and heard that the Chu people took revenge, the soldiers and civilians of Xiangcheng desperately resisted, and Xiang Yu's army couldn't go down to the city.
Xiang Yu jumped and roared, personally holding ten thousand enemies and a big shield to climb a special ladder, climbed up to the head of the city in the rain of arrows and stones, roared like thunder and jumped into the battlement, from the head of the city to the city and then to the city gate to open the city gate, all the way to the blood into a river corpse stumbling.
Flying into the city, Xiang Yu roared fiercely without thinking about it: "Slaughter the city!" The whole city is driven to the moat and killed! Not a single one to stay! So, this Chu army scattered in all directions to drive away the remaining population of the city, and more than 20,000 men, women, and children were all driven down the moat and drowned, and then filled with masonry and mud to kill them completely.
This was Xiang Yu's first atrocity of slaughtering the city, and it was also the first atrocity in the history of China to kill civilians in the city.
About two months later, Xiang Yu and Liu Bang captured Chengyang and "slaughtered" again, which was the second time that Xiang Yu slaughtered the city as clearly recorded in historical records. Just over a year later, Xiang Yu slaughtered for the third time, killing more than 200,000 Qin soldiers alive.
After only a few months, Xiang Yuren Guan "led troops to the west to slaughter Xianyang, killed the prince of Qin, burned the Qin palace room, the fire was not extinguished for three months, and the women who collected their goods and treasures went to the east." This is the fourth massacre of Xiang Yu recorded in history, the looting and burning, and it is also the largest and strongest massacre in Chinese history, setting a criminal precedent for riots and burning the capital in later generations.
After establishing himself as the overlord, Xiang Yu had the fifth massacre of the civilians of Qi, killing the soldiers of Tian Rongzhi, the king of Qi, and at the same time burning and looting, forcing the princes Qi who had been defeated and surrendered.
In the last Waihuang massacre, because a teenager came forward and said that Xiang Yu's actions were not conducive to "going down to the city and going to the ground", Xiang Yu gave up the massacre that he had already started.
In addition to the six large-scale massacres and looting, Xiang Yu also brutally restored the evil style of cooking and killing in the Warring States, killed the king of Chu Huai, and killed the prince of Qin who had surrendered.
So Hu Hai didn't doubt it at all, if Xiang Yu couldn't stop him, he would act like this! What's more, he just sent cavalry to stop the Baiyue barbarians from plundering the people, and he has already revealed that he cares about these people!
Xiang Yu will definitely not ignore it! Even if you can't do anything to blackmail with Xiang Yu's surname, compared to that bit of hypocritical reputation, killing yourself is obviously much more useful than that little false name!
Hu Hai believes that Xiang Yu will make a choice! It can be seen from the fact that he squeezed him himself, and he finally saluted himself! Xiang Yu is not just a reckless man who "pulls out the mountains and covers the world" as written in the history books!
"There are some things that you have to do since you came! Otherwise, I'm sorry for myself! Hu Hai looked at Du Teng, who was still about to speak, and said quietly!
"Spread the edict to Xianyang and tell Prime Minister Li Cheng that the ceremony will be postponed again! You don't have to worry, I will sort out all the previous edicts and pass them on to the national lieutenant Lao Aiqing, and I will listen to the opinions of the old Wei Aiqing! Are you so unconfident in yourself? Ha ha! ”
Hu Hai laughed and said!
"Ministers swear to protect Your Majesty!"
Du Teng and the others also knew at this moment that no amount of persuasion would obviously have any effect, so the only thing they could do seemed to be desperate! Then by the way, pray that the nearest Hanshin will arrive soon!
Of course, it's best to arrive before Xiang Liang's army, which is obviously coming!
It's getting dark!
The army of 6,000 people who went out to snipe and kill the Baiyue barbarians who were plundering everywhere also returned to the camp one after another! The nearly 3,000 bloody heads of the Baiyue barbarians brought back were all piled up five miles away from Xiang Yu's camp by Hu Hai's order!
Three thousand heads piled up into a hill of human heads! Torches were erected all around, so that the Baiyue barbarians in Xiang Yu's camp could see clearly!
In the quiet night, the strong smell of blood type permeated the summer night full of the smell of green grass, and the small hill of human heads that appeared in the wilderness suddenly added endless murder and terror to this summer night!
Challenge, stimulate the fragile nerves of Baiyue barbarians!
The moment Xiang Yu sent troops out of the Huhai camp, he knew that it was because of his own arson and plunder! It's just that he didn't expect Hu Hai to be so ruthless, not only intercepting and chasing the Baiyue barbarians who returned from looting, but also piling up all the severed Baiyue barbarian heads at the gate of his camp!
Xiang Yu also sent a large team of men and horses to eat these two cavalry!
But the Great Qin Jingcai, who came and went like the wind, didn't stop at all, just blindly wandered, riding in a group of three, riding a team of ten, and riding a hundred horses, haunting the wilderness and chasing the Baiyue barbarians who went out to loot and returned!
Within a radius of fifty miles, all the way to the vicinity of Chengwu County, the Baiyue barbarians who went out to plunder were all wiped out! You will face being chased by the Qin cavalry anytime and anywhere!
As the sun sets, so does the weather! With the Great Qin cavalry with a horseshoe, there is no need to worry about the danger of the horse stumbling at all, and they are running wantonly! Hunting and slaughtering the Baiyue barbarians who slaughtered and plundered the people!
Xiang Yu's face was pale, looking at the hill of human heads piled up outside the camp and being illuminated by torches, and the tens of thousands of Yue barbarians whose morale was extremely low in the camp, his steel teeth were almost crushed!
"If he wants to protect those pariahs, then he will kill him again!!"
A dull roar spat out from Xiang Yu's mouth!
……
The sixth day of the seventh month of the first year of Great Qin II!
Xiangliang camp in Suiyang!
Xiang Liang sat quietly in the lobby! On the left hand side of his hand, Zhang Liang, who was meticulously combed and still wearing a green shirt, was staring at the roll of bamboo slips in his hand!
This is a letter from Handan!
