Chapter 492: Shan Yuting

Wolf Juxu Mountain is located in the depths of the desert, stretching hundreds of miles from north to south, it is the holy mountain of the Huns since ancient times, according to legend, the ancient ancestors of the Huns were born after a wolf in the Wolf Juxu Mountain and the most beautiful woman on the grassland, therefore, the Huns worship the wolf for generations, and the highest god they believe in is the wolf god.

Two large rivers originate in the Langjuxu Mountain, one flows eastward into the territory of Donghu, and finally joins the sea, this is the Gonglu River, which was once the hereditary territory of the Huyan tribe, and the other flows north into the Beihai (Lake Baikal), this is the Yuwu River, along which are the pastures of the Xiongnu royal family and the Zhuli tribe.

The Xiongnu's Shan Yuting was located at the southern foot of the Wolf Juxu Mountain, between the two rivers.

However, the current Shan Yuting is no longer the old appearance of the past, the outline of an earthen city has been built on the empty river beach, thousands of houses have been built in the unfinished city, and the large stacked pavilion in the north is the Shan Yu Palace, in addition to the houses, there are orderly streets and alleys.

Over time, it will develop into a bustling city.

More than 300,000 Xiongnu women and children drove millions of cattle, sheep, horses, camels, and they were grazing on both sides of the Yuwu River and the Gonglu River, while waiting for the return of the men or fathers of the expedition, but they did not know that death was rapidly approaching them.

Two seven or eight-year-old Hun teenagers were frolicking in front of Mao Dun Shan Yu's tooth tent, a slightly taller boy slapped his legs, and put the other boy who was half a head shorter but more sturdy to the ground, and then clapped his hands and said proudly: "Yi Zhixian, I said a long time ago that you can't fall me, you don't believe it, it's not interesting to talk about yourself now, right?" ”

The sturdy young man got up with a disgraced face and shouted, "The military minister will compare the archery again!" ”

The tall young man pursed his lips, unloaded the delicately crafted short bow from his shoulder, and said abruptly: "Compare and compare, I'm afraid you won't make it?" ”

These two teenagers are the grandsons of Mao Dun Shan Yu, the son of the late Zuo Xian Wang Ji Congee, since Ji Congee was killed by Zhou Guanfu in Zhao Di among the ten thousand troops, Mao Dun pinned all his hopes on these two grandsons, and the military ministers who had brought endless nightmares to the Han Empire in history were only young children at this time.

The military minister was about to test his archery skills with Yi Zhi when he suddenly heard a sound in his ears.

What is this sound? The well-hearing military officer turned his head and jumped on horseback, putting his hand on the canopy and looking southeast, but at the end of his field of vision, in addition to the grassland or grassland, and in the distance, the vast desert gradually merged with the clear blue sky, but it was no longer clear.

"Minister, what are you looking at?" Yi Zhi asked.

The military minister waved his hand and said, "It seems that a large group of people is approaching." ”

"A brigade?" Yi Zhi turned, "Could it be that Shan Yu's army has returned?" ”

"No, it's definitely not just the army, the army can't come back so soon." The military minister shook his head categorically and said, "Moreover, Shan Yu's army should return from the southwest, but this group of men and horses is from the southeast. ”

"Southeast?" Yi Zhi tilted, "Minister, you shouldn't have heard me wrong, right?" ”

The guards around the voice suddenly stirred, and many guards turned over their horses and swords and swarmed towards the southeast, and then, a faint black line appeared on the horizon in the southeast direction, and at this moment, the young military minister and Yi Zhi clearly felt that the ground under their feet was trembling slightly.

………

"Woo ......" Bi Shu gently drank the war horse under his crotch, and slowly raised his right hand, and the Chu army horses that followed up behind him slowed down their horses, and then slowly spread out towards the two wings, and in less than half an hour before and after, 20,000 Chu army horsemen and 3,000 Yan Guojing horses had already opened a huge cavalry formation on the vast desert. …,

As far as the eye can see, the outline of a large mountain can be faintly seen in front of you.

Hu Yan pointed to the outline of the mountain and said to Bi Shu: "General, that is the Wolf Juxu Mountain. ”

"Wolf Juxu Mountain, finally arrived at Wolf Juxu Mountain." A faint smile appeared on the corner of Bi Shu's mouth.

Finally found Shan Yuting, who lived in Wolf Juxu Mountain and the Huns, and since he went deep into the desert, the more than half a month of eating and sleeping in the open has finally been in vain.

"Wolf Juxu Mountain, is this the so-called holy mountain of the Huns?" Yan Taizi Zangyan pursed his lips and said disdainfully, "What kind of bullshit holy mountain, it looks like an ordinary mountain, not to mention that compared with the famous mountains and mountains of the Central Plains, it is also very inferior to the mountains of our Yan Kingdom." ”

Huyan pointed to the outline of the earthen city under the mountain and said, "That, it must be the newly built Shan Yu City." ”

"Depending on the situation, it should be Shan Yucheng." Bi Shu stroked the beard that curled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "The Huns have a city, but it saves us a lot of trouble, hehe." ”

After saying that, Bi Shu raised his right hand again, pressed it forward gently, and said lightly: "Order, step on the single court, regardless of men and women, old and young, all of them will be killed!" Bi Shu's tone was very light, but the smell of blood revealed between his words was so strong, and the eyes of the generals behind him suddenly burst into endless killing intent.

In the sound of cold metal grinding, Hu Yan had already slowly pulled out the dumb moon sword, and shouted: "The general has an order, step on the single court, regardless of men and women, young and old, all of them will be killed, and all MM will be killed."

In an instant, dozens of herald cavalry were already flying towards the two wings of the cavalry formation.

In a moment, the 20,000 Chu army horsemen and the 3,000 Yan national iron horsemen drew their swords one after another, and then urged the horses forward, when the large continuous swords were raised in the air, and under the light of the scorching sun, the dazzling coldness was reflected, and the cold killing breath spread endlessly on the desert in an instant.

…………

The corpse poison dropped by the Yueshi people in the water source brought great trouble to the Huns, and the corpse poison has been produced among the nomads for a long time, in fact, a large number of highly decomposed livestock carcasses were thrown into the water source, and people and animals would suffer from diseases after drinking the polluted water source, and in serious cases, they would die.

After entering the territory of the Yueshi people, people and animals continued to get sick.

Fortunately, the Huns' military advisor uncle said that he was extremely vigilant and discovered the secret of the Yue's poisoning in the water source in time, which avoided greater losses, but most of the water sources in the desert were still polluted, at least in a short period of time, they could not be directly drunk, which forced the Huns to dig wells for water.

Digging wells to get water is time-consuming and laborious, and the amount of water is limited, people and animals can only get a small amount of water every day, therefore, the march of the Huns can really be described as miserable, until the Hun army arrived in Juyanze, the situation can be improved, Juyanze is hundreds of miles in circumference, such a large lake is impossible to be completely polluted.

In order to store horsepower and manpower, Mao Dun had to rest in Juyanze for ten years.

Ten days later, when Huyan led the Chuyan coalition army to appear in Shan Yuting at the foot of Wolf Juxu Mountain, the Xiongnu army had just started from Juyanze and continued to march towards the Yueshi royal court, but 300,000 women and children and hundreds of thousands of cattle and sheep were left in Juyanze, and Maodun also left more than 20,000 cavalry to protect women, children and cattle and sheep.

At the same time, the Xiongnu right sage king Gu Promise has arrived at Hutu Ze with 50,000 cavalry, under the strong pressure of the Hun cavalry, Hun Tu King, Hun evil king chose to submit, Hun right sage king Gu Promise accepted the surrender of Hugh Tu and Hun evil two tribes, and from the two tribes requisitioned 30,000 strong men to accompany the expedition. …,

The main army of the Xiongnu Shan Yu Maodun and the army of the right sage king Gu Promise are like two big iron tongs of crabs, one south and one north towards the Yueshi Wangcheng near Mi Ze rolling and crushing, for a while, the Hexi Corridor was full of people and horses boiling, and a team of Yueshi cavalry swarmed towards the Wangcheng, and the war was about to break out.

…………

Since the main force of the Xiongnu in Maodun left, Juyanze has returned to the tranquility of the past, except for the herdsmen grazing by the lake from the Yueshi people to the Huns, there is basically no other difference, if you have to find out the difference, that is, the Huns' cattle and sheep seem to be thinner than the Yueshi people, which are all long-distance trouble.

As the sun goes down and a quiet and peaceful day passes, night falls.

The Huns drove the cattle, sheep and horses into the makeshift enclosure, and then lit piles of fires by the lake, while boiling mare's milk wine, while nibbling on roast mutton, the children looked forward to waking up tomorrow and they could grow up to become men, the men regretted that they failed to participate in the war to conquer the Yueshi, and the women looked forward to the endless cattle, sheep and wealth that the Hun army was about to bring back after the conquest of the Yueshi, everything was so comfortable and beautiful.

Only a very small number of Hun cavalry roamed in the wasteland around Juyanze.

Under the cold moonlight, the two Hun cavalry slowly appeared on a low mountain beam, and then crossed the mountain beam and continued to patrol in the direction away from Ju Yanze, suddenly, an imperceptible sound suddenly came from the left front, and the Hun cavalry in front of him was alert for a moment, and the short bow in his hand was bowed with his backhand.

Before it was too late, a few cold rays had already shot from the grass in front of the left, and the two Hun cavalrymen on horseback fell from their horses before they had time to give a warning, and their horses were frightened, and they screamed rhythmically, and galloped into the distance like the wind, and soon disappeared into the vast night.

Several black shadows got up from the knee-deep grass, and then several more horses rolled over from the grass and got up, one of them turned over on his horse, and ordered several horsemen behind him: "Heizi, you take two people to rush back to the northern camp immediately to report to the prime minister, and say that you have found the women, children and sheep of the Huns in Juyanze, go quickly!" ”

"Whoa!" One of them responded with a bang, and flew away with two horses.

In just a few moments, the three riders disappeared into the night.

The rider who had just given the order shouted at the remaining riders, "You guys, follow me!" ”。 )
