Chapter Seventy-Six: Fighting and Plotting

Sublin looked at his father in astonishment, and lost his voice; "Father, are we going to run away too?"

Subu Juciyun sighed and said; "Tou Man City can't hold it, as soon as those nobles run away, their subordinates and slaves will presumably follow their masters, so how many troops can I use, Tou Manchester City will fall only a matter of time."

"But father." Sublin said in a hurry; "If we abandon Manchester City, once Shan Yu returns, then how can we explain to him."

Subu Juciyun gritted his teeth and said, "I can't care so much, let's save our family's life first." Shan Yu still has no news sent back, and I don't know whether it is life or death, if it is really as the Qin people said, the whole army is wiped out, and we will not be killing ourselves if we stick to Manchester City. ”

"Besides, Touman's own brother is dead, do you think he will spare me?" A glimmer of light flashed in Subju Ciyun's originally cloudy eyes, "Rather than this, we might as well plan ahead." I have a deep relationship with King Ding Ling, and if Touman does come back, we will take the tribe to join him. ”

"You let your brother go and pack up the family belongings to gather the Bu tribe, you personally go to the north gate to guard it for me, no one can take over without my warrant, since the Qin army wants us to abandon the city and run away, it stands to reason that they will not attack the north gate."

"Yes, father." When Sublin received the instructions, he hurried away.

When he entered the house, before his buttocks were hot, someone from the royal court came to summon Su Bu Juci Yun to meet him, saying that the Yan clan ordered him to go. Su Bu Ju Ciyun felt a little strange in his heart, and he couldn't guess what the Yan clan meant by summoning him.

The status of women in the Xiongnu is not high, although the Yan family is the mother of a country, rarely interferes in military politics. To spread that his clan is the Huns' Zhuqu clan Heyaduo, her young son Fu Erjian followed Touman south, leaving her alone in the royal court, usually also living in a simple place, never met with Xu Bu Ju Ciyun, at this time suddenly summoned him, presumably related to the siege of the Qin army.

At this time, it was not appropriate to tear up with the royal court, so Su Bu Juciyun pondered for a long time, but decided to answer the call.

The royal court of the Huns is located in the middle of Touman City, with a radius of more than ten miles. Although the city of Touman is a city, the Huns are not accustomed to living in houses, and they still set up tents on the grassland to live and rest according to the habit of generations, and the bricks and trees on the grassland are very rare, and only some nobles who enjoy themselves will build some simple mansions.

Rather than a city, the city is a large pasture surrounded by a wall, and the tribes of the Huns are arguing to set up tents in the city, which is no different from the grassland. But in the middle of the city, there was no more chaos and noise that could be seen everywhere else, because this was the holy place of the Huns, and the plough was lonely in the place where they lived.

Unlike the luxurious palaces of the Central Plains, the structure of the royal court of the Huns was relatively simple, with some low fences on the periphery and dozens of huge tents inside, which seemed to be nothing different except for the large ones. The Xiongnu men spent most of their lives on horseback, herding and fighting were the two most important things in their lives, and tents were only needed when they needed women.

Because Shan Yu fought in the south, the entire royal court seemed to be much deserted, and only a few bright lights leaked out of the tent at night, and the court tent of the Yan clan was on the left side of Shan Yu's court tent.

A maid went in to report, and Subu Ju Ciyun was waiting outside the tent, and it didn't take long for a middle-aged grandmother to come out, come up and look at Subu Ju Ciyun, and said coldly; "You are Su Bu Ju Ci Yun Chief, come with me, the Yan clan wants to see you."

The woman's language and demeanor were quite unreasonable, and she might have become accustomed to it if she had changed her previous Subu Jujiyun.

Although he is the right bone of the Xiongnu, this position is equivalent to Shan Yu's big butler, but he is still Shan Yu's servant, so the personal maid of the royal court is not polite to him, and is often commanding.

But now it is different, the military and political affairs of Manchester City are determined by his Su Bu Ju Ciyun, and he has already left his mind, so he will naturally not have the same respect and caution as he used to be to the royal court. He snorted heavily, thinking that when the city broke through and the Qin people came over, you, the Yan clan, would know the importance of Lao Tzu.

The woman who led the way did not perceive Subuju's displeasure, and still led the way with her head bowed. After passing through several large tents, he came to the tent of the Yan clan, and said in a rough voice; "Go in, the Yan clan is waiting for you inside."

When Su Bu Ju Ciyun heard this, he opened the door curtain, and when he went in, he saw that the Yan clan was sitting on the collapse, so he stepped forward and saluted; "See Yan."

Yan Shi nodded, his face was a little pale, and said; "The right bone is waiting to sit down, I called you so late, hard work. I also heard about the battle of defending the city during the day today, and it is rare that you are still on the battlefield at the age of sixty, and you are worthy of being a warrior of my Huns. ”

A high hat was sent by the Yan family, and the people of Subu Ju Ciyun were good at things, so they naturally heard that the Yan family had something to ask for, and sat on the side of the collapse; "If you have any orders, even if you say it, the old minister will definitely do it."

"The right bone is serious, I'm just a woman's family, where do I dare to say anything. It's just that as a Xiongnu, the Yan clan cares about my people, so he wants to ask the old general about the war. ”

Subu Juciyun pressed his chest with his left hand, bowed and said: "The Lao clan is bothered, although the Qin people are menacing and arrogant, as long as there are old ministers for a day, they will definitely be able to keep the safety of the royal city." When he said this, he was righteous, and he didn't see the slightest hint of wanting to escape.

"I've heard that many nobles in the city have fled through the north gate, but this is the case."

Subu Juciyun was silent for a while, and said lightly; "Yanshi, this is just some rumors, don't believe it."

Yan Shi heard the perfunctory meaning in his words, and couldn't help but feel a little flustered in his heart. Although she is very favored by Touman, she is only from a small tribe, and there is no strong father to rely on, and now Touman is not there, and her son is not around, so how can she not be afraid of a woman.

Yan Shi took a few steps forward, and suddenly bent down and bowed down, Su Bu Ju Ciyun was startled, and hurriedly stood up and helped Yan Shi Dao; "Yan, what are you doing here?"

Yan Shi stood up and said with a little choked up: "Old general, before leaving, I entrust the royal court and the entire head of Manchester City to you, I am a lonely woman, and I can only rely on you to maintain it, if it falls into the hands of the Qin people, it is better to die." ”

Seeing that Subu Juciyun was silent, the Yan clan knew that pretending to be pitiful did not impress him, so he said again; "Old General, you should know that my son is very favored by Shan Yu. Everyone knew that Shan Yu didn't like King Zuo Xian and liked Shan Erjian, and Shan Yu promised me that he would find an opportunity to appoint Shan Erjian as Zuo Xian King to replace Mao Dun. ”

"Old general, if my son is a single man in the future, then the kindness you give me today, I will definitely repay it again in the future."

Yan's words made Su Bu Ju Ciyun's heart pound. This is a smart woman who knows how to use her strengths to impress others. Yan's words were indeed very tempting, and once his son made Shan Yu, she said that what she promised could indeed be fulfilled.

"Please rest assured, the old minister will fight to protect your safety."

Yan Shi breathed a sigh of relief, and then put her mind at ease, with the guarantee of Subu Ju Ciyun, then she would have the support to live and save her life, and she would not be taken captive by the rebels, and asked: "The old general can tell the truth, can the head Manchester City defend it." ”

Subu Juciyun shook his head slowly; "I'm afraid I can't hold it."

Hearing this, Yan's face turned pale and said in a trembling voice; "Are the Qin people really that strong?"

"The Qin army actually has very few troops and limited strength, but their commander is really more cunning than a fox, and his eyes are sharper than a goshawk, and we are not his opponents. The hearts of the people in the city have been scattered, the nobles have fled to the north, and we can no longer hold the head of Manchester City. ”

"Could it be that Shan Yu is really wiped out in Monan?"

"I don't know the exact situation anymore, and none of the messengers I sent out have yet returned." Subu Juciyun's complexion changed slightly, and he arched his hand; "Yan Shi, no matter what Shan Yu's situation is, it is far from quenching the thirst of the near, we should plan early, no matter how late, I am afraid we will not be able to leave."

Yan Shi's heart was confused, and he nodded when he heard this, "Everything is arranged by the old general." ”

At midnight, the noisy north gate finally fell silent, and the royal city guards, who had been silent about the nobles fleeing, were finally dispatched, and a large number of soldiers poured out of the royal court, they were only one of the guards who remained in the city. The royal city guards took over the north gate with the warrant of Subju Ciyun, and the Huns who wanted to flee were forced back by the scimitar, and the families with a little strength had fled early, and the rest were ordinary people, how could they dare to clash with the royal city guards, and they could only retreat home in panic.

Not long after it fell silent, the north gate was quickly disrupted by the sound of horses' hooves, and a large force of cavalry wrapped in dozens of huge carriages came towards the north gate. Instead of stopping them, the royal guards opened the gates wide, and when the team had galloped, they also turned on their horses and chased after them.

Subju Ciyun chose the time of evacuation at midnight, because he was afraid that the people in the city would be in turmoil and collapse without a fight, and he also hoped that Touman City could hold out for a little longer, so as to help him attract the attention of the Qin army and let him flee north calmly.

This time he almost poured out, more than 4,000 guards and carefully selected defenders in the city, plus a thousand guards of the royal court guarding the Yan clan, there were 5,000 troops to protect him and the Yan clan, already his relatives of the Subu family and the gold, silver and jewels of the royal court, the mighty team left Touman City, and fled quietly to the north.

During the march, in order not to alarm the Qin army, Subu Ju Ciyun had already issued a strict order to prohibit noise, but the team of more than 6,000 people fled north in a hurry, and it was inevitable that there would be some confusion. Subu Juciyun was worried about this, but fortunately, he didn't find anything unusual when he looked at the Qin army camp in the distance, and he probably didn't find their escape, so his face widened slightly.

But he didn't notice that in a forest in the distance, a cavalry of more than 5,000 people quietly watched the Huns fleeing not far away.

Han Xin's face was calm, but his heart was turbulent, this was the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time. After this war, he Han Xin is no longer a nobody, and many people will remember his name, fame, great cause, and meritorious service, regardless of whether it is at your fingertips.

It took a long time to calm down, although the Huns' ranks extinguished the fire, but after the moonlight, you could still vaguely see the Huns' chaotic ranks.

"Marquis Luan."

"Yes."

"You take your headquarters to the city gate, and after entering the city, you quickly occupy our best vital place, and Qi Sima will lead the brothers in the camp to cooperate with you."

"No."

"Major General, you and I will intercept and kill Subu Juciyun."

"No."

Han Xin pulled out his saber and said loudly; "Brothers, we have been waiting for this time when we have crossed the Hanhai Sea and died in a foreign land. Military merit, wealth, and women are waiting in front, what are you still hesitating about. ”

"We want to step on the Xiongnu and plant the black water flag of Daqin on the ancestral grave of the Xiongnu Shan Yu generations, so that they will suffer unprecedented shame, and now, I can take you to do it."

"Kill!"
