Chapter 40: The Xianbei Captive for My Use

Outside the tent, Zhang Ju said to the eldest brother: "Brother, can they Karasuma people really cash in?" ”

Zhang Chundao: "I never expected them to fulfill their promises, Hu Lu is just a tool for me to use!" ”

"What do you mean, big brother?"

"The general Liu Kun is too strong, unless we are determined to join him, we will be eliminated by him sooner or later! Therefore, we must strike first, otherwise, you and I brothers will die without a place to be buried! ”

Zhang Ju said: "Big brother is planning? ”

Zhang Chun said confidently: "After these people eliminate Liu Kun, the imperial court will send troops to expel them, and we can also learn the path of Liu Kun's rise, and try to buy off the emperor's permanent attendants, and it is not impossible to take over the history of Youzhou Assassin!" ”

"What if the imperial court is no longer capable of driving out the Tartars?"

Zhang Chun smiled and said: "The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and the imperial court has a deep heritage!" If the imperial court is really so corrupt that it is unable to drive out the Hulu, our brothers will use the Hulu to conquer the city to strengthen themselves, and take advantage of the trend, maybe, we have a chance to win the world! ”

"Big brother Takami!"

"Hah. Ha. Ha. Ha! ”

——————————————————————————

Jicheng rode the General's Mansion, Zhang Fei was following behind Liu Kun and asked anxiously: "Big brother!" Did you attack Hulu outside the city tonight? Or bother them? ”

"Yi Demo is in a hurry, we have to fight this battle slowly, and we won't do anything tonight!"

Zhang Fei was puzzled and said, "Why? ”

Liu Kunchun asked seductively: "If we win too quickly and too easily, what will others think of us?" ”

"What do you think? I must have thought that our Youzhou army was powerful, and it would defeat the 250,000 coalition troops of Wuheng and Xianbei in three or two clicks! ”

Liu Kun said: "What do the people in the court think? Ministers will think; The Youzhou Army is so powerful, should it be curbed? Even the Emperor will not let our power become too strong, and then push the boat down the river, agree to the division of the ministers, and disintegrate my power! ”

Zhang Fei said depressedly: "It's really troublesome! ”

"What's more, the enemy's troops are too much, Karasuma and Xianbei are not the Yellow Turban soldiers of the Central Plains, and there are only 20,000 people in my city, even if it wins, it is a tragic victory!

Even if the Hulu is defeated, our army will not be able to keep them. If you scare Hu Lu back to the grassland, it will be difficult to clean them up! Now that we are fighting at our doorstep, it is easy to consume the enemy, we must hang them and eat slowly,"

Zhang Fei said: "It's so complicated! - Big brother! Today, the second brother has already beheaded three generals, and the next time I have such an opportunity, the eldest brother will let me go! ”

Liu Kun smiled and said, "Okay! You go to the barracks to take care of the prisoners for your eldest brother, the things I arranged in the barracks should be started, don't make a mess! ”

Zhang Fei felt curious and went away one after another!

Jicheng military camp, prisoner detention place, Xianbei people looked at the food sent, and their hearts were angry, because it was clear soup again!

Anger is anger, but no one dares to resist, because yesterday evening, all those who resisted and made trouble were killed.

The law of the Hulu tribe is that the weak obey the strong, and the more ruthless you suppress him, the more obedient he will be, and he has naked animal thinking.

In the corner, more than a dozen Hulu gathered together, and two of them hid to the side and whispered;

"Brother Da Lang, why are we pretending to be captives and staying here? It's the same as the Xianbei captive, I will give a bowl of rice soup when I eat, I miss the braised pork so much! ”

Others pricked up their ears to listen.

Brother Da Lang said: "Brothers, don't worry, you'll know later!" ”

It turned out that these people were soldiers under Liu Kun, Brother Da Lang's name was Yang Dalang, a native of Youzhou and Liaoxi, and his martial arts were good.

When recruiting troops in Liaoxi, he competed in martial arts and became a tun commander, and during the Yellow Turban War, he was brave and disciplined, and was promoted to a military candidate by Liu Kun.

Because he could speak Xianbei words, Liu Kun arranged for him to be here, waiting for an opportunity to encourage Xianbei Hulu, and the Han army lurking among Hulu like them, a total of twelve waves.

At this time, a crowd came in at the gate, carrying in several buckets of white rice, as well as a whole pot of red meat, and the overflowing fragrance was mouth-watering!

A man who looked like an officer said in Xianbei language: "Listen to me, if you want to eat these good meals, you have to contribute to the general, recruit 2,500 people today, go to the city wall to defend the city, and if you are willing to go, go forward." ”

The unwanted hulu was swallowing, but no one was moving.

The officer-like person coughed, and Yang Dalang whispered: "Brothers, let's go!" ”

After finishing speaking, he took a step forward with a dozen or so 'Xianbei captives' around him, and said loudly in Xianbei words: "I can't stand it!" Lao Tzu will also be a full ghost when he dies. ”

The officer-like humane: "Change your clothes, you can come and eat rice and braised pork!" ”

Everyone came to a cart of military uniforms and began to change clothes.

"Brother Lang, why are these camouflage uniforms all white, aren't we all wearing green?"

Yang Dalang said: "Only by different colors can you distinguish between Hulu and Han Jun!" ”

After everyone finished changing their clothes, one of them held a bowl of rice with braised pork, squatted in front of the Xianbei captive, and devoured it, with an expression that was called 'beauty'!

When some of them saw that others had eaten it, hunger overcame fear, they cried out; "I'll go too!"

"I'll go too!"

"I'll go too!"

The officer-like man shouted in Xianbei words: "Quiet, only 2,500 people, line up here for me!" Dare to cause chaos and shoot them all! ”

Soon, all the 2,500 Hulu changed into clean white camouflage uniforms, ate white rice and red pieces of meat, and the others who didn't have their turn regretted it!

The officer-like man divided the 2,500 people into four parts and headed for the four city walls of the east, west, south and north!

After going to the city, each of them was issued a bow and a helmet, and the Han generals who led them ordered:

"Your task is to shoot the enemy who is besieging the city, and at night, if you don't shoot a single person, take off your clothes, go back to the prisoner camp, and drink porridge every day!"

"Brother Lang! What if these Hulu defect? ”

Yang Dalang explained: "Hou Ze, you see, behind each Xianbei captive, there are two soldiers carrying knives, if you dare to turn back, you will directly cut it over!" Besides, these Hulu don't have a leader, so they won't be so bold! ”

Hou Ze turned his head, glanced behind him out of the corner of his eye, and asked, "Why are there people behind us?" ”

Yang Dalang smiled and said: "You have to do a full set of plays, let's continue to perform in a while!" - Take a closer look, who are the people behind us? ”

Hou Ze quickly glanced back, and said with a smile: "Hey! It turned out to be two tigers and a few of them! ”

At the beginning, most of the Xianbei prisoners on the city wall shot blindly with bows and arrows, hoping that the 'friendly army' under the city would suffer fewer casualties!

How could it be that the Hulu under the city didn't recognize them, and a wave of siege Hulu approached and released arrows, and more than a dozen Xianbei people were shot with bows and arrows!

Yang Dalang said: "Hou Ze, pretend to be an arrow!" ”

Hou Ze was very clever, took an arrow, pressed it to his chest, and fell to the ground with a thud, Yang Dalang immediately squatted beside Hou Ze and shouted in Xianbei language.

The meaning is; Brother, brother! Brother, you died so unjustly!

Then he stood up in grief and shouted to the Hulu under the city: "you Karasuma dogs, you shot my brother without caring at all!" Give back my brother's life! ”

After the words are finished, shoot the bow and arrow, whoosh! Sou! Shoot two approaching Hulu!

The other Xianbei captives are equally angry in their hearts, we sympathize with the people below, but the people below don't sympathize with us, shoot it, anyway, it's not the Xianbei people who are attacking the city.

This is Liu Kun's idea of taking prisoners for his own use, the method is very simple, the first step is to let Hu Lu put on a military uniform, the second step is to stand on the city wall, the third step is to shoot the first arrow, and the fourth step is to shoot the first person.

Once the two sides fight the real fire, the Xianbei people who surrender will no longer be friends of the siege Hulu, and the more people they shoot, their hearts will change, suggesting to themselves that the city is full of enemies!

In the evening, these Xianbei people in military uniforms withdrew to the camp, and Yang Dalang was appointed as a lieutenant because of his 'combat bravery', responsible for commanding more than 2,000 people.

More than 2,000 people returned to the prisoner camp, which naturally caused another sensation, and these people not only ate well in the evening, but also drank wine, and wore a cotton coat!

The most important thing is that there are not many people lost, the work of defending the city does not seem to be dangerous, and there are many 'Xianbei people' who have become centurions and thousands!

In March in Youzhou, the night was still very cold, and last night the Xianbei captives relied on crowding each other to resist all night, not to mention the taste of freezing.

As the old saying goes, all people are cold and hungry, and everyone can hold on, but some people are well fed and fed, and there are cotton coats to keep warm at night, and those who are cold are unbalanced.

Many Xianbei captives have already made plans, if the Han army continues to recruit people tomorrow, they must sign up early!
