Chapter 191: Xiao Yue'er
After dawn, Ji Qingchen gave an order and let the army enter the Beirong royal court. And it was Zhou Shun and 10,000 elite horsemen who guarded the royal court, and when he saw Ji Qingchen's army that appeared near the royal court far away, he immediately went out ten miles to greet him. Welcomed Ji Qingchen into the Beirong royal court, sitting on the tiger skin chair made by Mo Dahan, the former king of Beirong Khan, Ji Qingchen, who didn't have time to rest, and the generals began to quietly listen to Zhou Shun's report to him about the expedition to Haoge, and after listening to Zhou Shun's report, he couldn't help but sigh.
Because after Zhou Shun's narration, he was sure of the fact that this attack on Dayan, Mo Dahan really recruited the young and strong of the entire Beirong clan, and now the remaining men of the Beirong tribes are all fifty years old, and the age is only ten years old.
This made Haoge hurriedly return to Beirong, did not raise any more troops, only ascended the throne of the Great Khan with the support of 40,000 troops, and could not sit for less than 20 years, he was killed by the army of Meng Li and Cao Yukun, who were killed out of the pass, and now he has fled to the extreme northern snow field, leaving the entire Beirong grassland and hundreds of thousands of old and weak women and children to Ji Qingchen.
And Meng Li and Cao Yukun went to chase Haoge, and they have been away for ten days.
"Zhou Shun, how many Beirong people are still living near the royal court now?" After listening to Zhou Shun's answer, Ji Qingchen, who had been thinking for a moment, asked in a cold tone.
"Back to Your Highness, it is estimated that there are still 600,000 people. Because from the winter of last year to this spring, the life of the entire Beirong tribe is based on the property of Liaozhou and Shangzhou of Dayan plundered by Meng Buge, and most of their clansmen have already lived nomadically near the royal court. Zhou Shun replied without thinking, and handed a map of Beirong to Ji Qingchen, which was marked with red dots, and where there were red dots, there was a nomadic tribe, and this was the result of his reconnaissance in the past ten days, "The above is where these tribes live." ”
Seeing that Ji Qingchen didn't speak, he continued, "As for the remaining less than 200,000 people, they have probably been scattered to the Beirong Grassland and have already walked out of the royal court. ”
"Yes!" Ji Qingchen nodded slightly, very satisfied with Zhou Shun's answer, and saw that he glanced at the generals in the king's tent, so he named the names of the five people in one breath, "Cheng Qianfan, Bai Yang, Yuwen Injury, Liu Qingqing, Hou Xiaotian." ”
"What do you command?" Cheng Qianfan, Bai Yang, Yu Wenshu, Liu Qingqing, and Hou Xiaotian immediately got up and asked Ji Qingchen.
"You are limited to bring 10,000 horses and horses with each of you within ten days, and drive all the people of the tribes marked above to the royal court." Ji Qingchen ordered.
"No!" Cheng Qianfan, Bai Yang, Yu Wensheng, Liu Qingqing, and Hou Xiaotian were shocked, and immediately received the order, and then strode away from the big tent.
"Zhou Shun, you continue to send scouts to investigate, and you must find out the whereabouts of the 200,000 Beirong tribes outside the Beirong Royal Court, and not a single one can be left behind." Ji Qingchen ordered Zhou Shun, his eyes full of murder.
"No!" Zhou Shun's body was shocked, he knew very well what Ji Qingchen was doing this for, but he still agreed.
"Brother Xiang Cheng." Ji Qingchen continued to order, "You send a team of men and horses to follow behind Zhou Shun, as soon as he finds the target, your people will immediately drive the Beirong tribe they find to the royal court, and kill anyone who resists!" ”
"No!" Bai Xiangcheng ordered, and left the king's tent with Zhou Shun.
Seeing that the generals in the big tent left in turn, he was left alone except Li Changzheng. This is Ji Qingchen who took a deep breath. The royal court, where he gathered all the Beirong tribes, had no other purpose than to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots. Of course, just like I told Xiao Yue'er, he is not a person who likes to kill, so he will not kill his daughter and children.
And since Ji Qingchen gave the order, the first day passed peacefully, and there was no movement in the royal court! On the third day, there were 100,000 people from the Beirong tribe who were driven to the royal court, all of whom were old and weak, women and children.
Day 4 –
Day 5 –
On the sixth day, 300,000 Beirong tribes had been driven to the royal court, all of whom were also a group of old and weak, women and children.
In this way, on the tenth day, Cheng Qianfan, Bai Yang, Yu Wenzhuan, Liu Qingqing, and Hou Xiaotian came back to return to Ji Qingchen, and they drove all the 600,000 Beirong tribes near the royal court to the royal court.
Similarly, in the afternoon of this day, Meng Li and Cao Yukun triumphed, and when the two of them returned to the royal court, they brought nothing with them except their respective armies, and the things they had brought with them were the heads of the Haoge people.
Put Haoge's head on Ji Qingchen's desk, and the two of them returned to Ji Qingchen.
"What about Hauge's men?" Ji Qingchen asked, he heard Zhou Shun say that 20,000 people followed Haoge and ran away.
"Kill!" Cao Yukun said lightly.
"Yes!" Ji Qingchen was very satisfied with Cao Yukun's answer, "You guys go down and rest!" In a few days, we will talk about the reward for meritorious deeds! ”
"No!" The two felt that when they saw the king of Northern Liao again this time, they found that he had changed a little, but they didn't know what had changed, and they didn't dare to ask Ji Qingchen, so they could only bow down and leave the king's tent. When the two of them just came out of the big tent, they met Bai Xiangcheng who came to report the military situation to Ji Qingchen, and told Bai Xiangcheng how they felt about Ji Qingchen's changes.
And when Cao Yukun heard that His Majesty the Emperor had decreed to propose marriage to the country for the eighth prince, and the princess was an Anle princess who grew up as Ji Qingchen's childhood sweetheart, he immediately returned to the king's tent to ask Ji Qingchen for his life, and was ready to kill the pass to find Wang You's father and son to settle the account, but because Baixiangcheng stopped him, he didn't do it, so he left stupidly.
Bai Xiangcheng just looked at Cao Yukun's back and shook his head.
As the original commander of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, he was the one who knew the character of the Nine Tigers of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion the most, and he knew Cao Yukun's character, so he stopped Cao Yukun and didn't let him go to the king's tent to ask Ji Qingchen for orders. Because he knew very well that as long as Cao Yukun asked Ji Qingchen for an order, he would definitely stage a scene in the Liaozhou military camp.
When Cao Yukun's figure disappeared from Bai Xiangcheng's sight, Bai Xiangcheng walked into the big tent.
"Your Highness, Zhou Shun has already found out the whereabouts of the remaining 200,000 Beirong tribes, and in just four days, he will be able to drive them all to the royal court." Bai Xiangcheng reported to Ji Qingchen.
"Yes!" Ji Qingchen nodded lightly, "Then wait for another four days!" ”
"No!" Bai Xiangcheng replied, and when he saw that Ji Qingchen didn't give any more orders, he bowed down and withdrew from the king's tent.
After another four days, Zhou Shun drove all the remaining 200,000 Beirong tribes to the royal court, but these 200,000 people were also old and weak, women and children.
In this way, nearly 800,000 Beirong tribes gathered in the Beirong royal court.
As soon as Zhou Shun arrived at Wang Tingji Qingchen, he gave an order to the army to divide the 800,000 Beirong people into four parts: men, women, old and young. As soon as the military order was issued, only three days later, the generals completed this task. At the same time, Ji Qingchen also obtained Bai Xiangcheng's statistics on the 800,000 Beirong tribes, among which there are 100,000 elderly men over 50,000, 80,000 elderly women over 40,000, nearly 420,000 middle-aged women between 18 and 40 years old, and the rest are all children, especially girls, with 130,000 and 80,000 boys.
"What do you think should be done with them?" Ji Qingchen asked everyone.
The generals in the king's tent were silent, these people should all be young and strong, and they would not hesitate to say that they would be killed, because Beirong is a nomadic people, and the young and strong people in their clan are basically soldiers, and if they don't kill, they will be tantamount to raising tigers. But now there are 800,000 people who are old and weak, women, children, and women, and they can't kill them.
Suddenly, there was silence in the king's tent.
And at this moment, a cavalry battalion walked into the big tent, he held a book in his hand, walked up to Ji Qingchen and said, "Your Highness, there is a Beirong girl outside the tent who asks to see you, saying that when you see this book, you will know who she is?" ”
"Put the book down!" Ji Qingchen saw clearly from a distance that the book in the hands of the Xiao Cavalry Camp guards was left by Xiao Yue'er, and knew that Xiao Yue'er had come to him, so he said to the Xiao Cavalry Camp guards, "Let her come in!" ”
When the guard had left the tent, he said to the generals, "Go down!" After I go back, I will think about it carefully, and give this king a satisfactory answer tomorrow. ”
"No!" The generals commanded, and left the king's tent in turn.
When his generals left, he saw that the guards who had just left the Xiao Cavalry Battalion led Xiao Yue'er into the king's tent, and left by themselves. And there are only two people left in the king's tent, Ji Qingchen and Xiao Yue'er.
"I didn't expect you to be the Ninth Emperor Prince of Dayan, the King of Northern Liao." Xiao Yue'er said as soon as she saw Ji Qingchen.
"Now that I think about it, what do you have in mind?" Ji Qingchen asked, had already stepped out of the chair and walked in front of Xiao Yue'er.
"I don't have any ideas, I still think you're the man who lay on the grass with me that night and talked." Xiao Yue'er said, staring at Ji Qingchen tightly.
"Yes! Yes, I'm still the lonely man. Ji Qingchen said, and also met Xiao Yue'er.
The two never said a word again!
After a long time, I saw Xiao Yue'er walking in front of Ji Qingchen step by step, standing on tiptoe, and holding Ji Qingchen's face with both hands, her red lips kissed Ji Qingchen's lips, and then she hugged Ji Qingchen all of a sudden. And Ji Qingchen stood quietly like this, and it was not until Xiao Yue'er's jerky tongue invaded his mouth that he held Xiao Yue'er tightly in his arms, and then picked her up lazily and walked to the king's tent step by step.
Suddenly, a low moan of a girl came from the king's tent.
After an hour, Xiao Yue'er walked out of the dormitory, and picked up the book that Ji Qingchen gave her, the title of which was "Interpretation of the Three Kingdoms in the Spring and Autumn Period".
Xiao Yue'er took the book and walked straight to the door of the king's tent, before she stopped and said to Ji Qingchen, "I know what I say, you won't let them go, I have self-knowledge of this." However, I know that I beg you, and you will definitely promise me, but I don't want to embarrass you. I've liked you the moment I saw you, but I'm not going to go with you, because I just want to remember the lonely look in your eyes when you appeared in front of me at dusk. Don't look for me in the future, don't send anyone to follow me, as long as I have a breath, I will raise our children, and when the time comes, he will let him continue to rule this grassland." Because, this steppe was conquered by his father. ”
After saying that, she walked away!
