Chapter 150: Sin
Pu Hangu, the captain of the high-hoof battalion, explained to Xingu that this time Lanzhou could be described as an elite outlet, according to the information provided by the Sogdian merchants, 4,000 steps of riding on the road and 20 miles, and the herdsmen, caravans, Horse thieves are killed or captured, foot soldiers in the distance from the grassland tribes to form a strong battalion, Wu Yingying personally sat in the town, each captain led 3,000 cavalry to take this as the center, take turns to attack the grassland tribes that plundered the Lanzhou caravan, within three days, the Alatan Ula tribe has been the seventh tribe that has been broken, together with Xingu, so far a total of 42 captured Lanzhou troops, more than 400 caravan men, Pu Hangu has sent someone to report the news of Xingu's arrival to the camp.
Pu Hangu explained, while arranging for the sergeants to gather all the surrendered tribesmen in the open space in front of the headman's tent, and dozens of Lanzhou sergeants around him rode healthy horses to guard, and the huge horse lance waved back and forth on the heads of these people, and once anyone dared to stand up and resist, they would be killed on the spot. The nobles and the ordinary herdsmen were strictly separated, and they all knelt on the carpet of the head man Agudamu's house, and there were only twenty or thirty people.
Seeing that all the tribal herdsmen had been concentrated, Pu Hangu confessed to Xin Gu, got up and walked in front of the tribal people, and said loudly: "A month ago, your leader Agu Damu listened to the instigation of the party item Cai Jiqian, robbed our goods, and killed our people, today, the Alatan Ula tribe deserves it!" His sharp eyes glanced at the left and right of the cavalry separation line of the Lanzhou army, both nobles and ordinary herdsmen lowered their heads, even Su He, the son of the head of the bloody Fang Gang, was not indignant, the Alatan Ula tribe provoked first, Lanzhou sent troops to fight and retaliate, the tribe was not as strong as people, and the weak losers only obeyed the fate.
"Let everyone know today that those who have my Lanzhou blood debt on their hands will definitely be repaid with blood. Pu Hangu waved his hand, the two sergeants separated from the crowd, like an eagle catching a chicken, Su He took out of the noble pile, Su He also seemed to know the fate waiting for him, and grabbed the people around him in horror, but the nobles around him avoided it, the head man Agudamu knelt aside with a blue face, and watched his son being dragged to Pu Hangu's horse and pressed down, Pu Hangu shouted in a deep voice: "Now I will take the lead in robbing my Lanzhou caravan, and Su He, who kills people and goods, will be beheaded on the spot, do you have anything to disagree?" Pu Hangu's ancestor is a Hu person in the Western Regions, his face is full of silver and gray beard, his body is big and his waist is round, and he is full of energy, these words are said in Mongolian, and the people in the nearby tribes are buzzing in their ears, and they all look at each other.
Su He, who was pressed to the ground, struggled violently, and said loudly: "If you want to kill, kill, I curse your soul to be devoured by the demon king, and your heart and liver will be roasted and eaten by him on a steel fork!" Hearing his curse so vicious, the other nobles couldn't help but secretly worry that this Su He saw that he was going to die, and he wanted to anger the enemy leader, and he couldn't even live with others, and a few were scared and sweated. Pu Hangu looked contemptuously at Su He, who was pressed to the ground by the sergeant and kept struggling, and said in a deep voice: "Casually cursing others in the name of the demon king is an act of believing in the devil, Su He, not only are your hands stained with the blood of my Lanzhou soldiers and civilians, but you also betray your soul to the devil! Pu Hangu's ancestors believed that they were Zoroastrianism, and they strictly adhered to the teachings for generations, and for Pu Hangu, the main god of Zoroastrianism, Ahura patronized, it was like the Jews believed that they were God's chosen people, and one of the main teachings of Zoroastrianism was the never-ending battle between light and darkness. If he was really convinced that Su He believed in the devil, he should have set Su He on the pyre and burned it, washing his soul with the fire of light.
The executioner immediately cut off Su He's head, and blood spurted all over the ground. Seeing that the faces of the people in the tribe were afraid, Pu Hangu said again: "Although the first evil is ambushed, the men of the tribe are all involved in the robbery of my Lanzhou caravan, and everyone is guilty!" After speaking, his face turned pale, and the hearts of everyone kneeling on the ground were also cold. Seeing that everyone didn't speak, Pu Hangu said again: "Fortunately, after the robbers robbed my Lanzhou's goods, they sat on the ground and shared the spoils.
The sergeant Lei Qisi, who was already standing beside him with an account book, immediately read out a string of names aloud, followed by the amount of stolen goods they had distributed. The tribal nobles kneeling on the carpet of the chief's tent, when they heard their names being recited, some turned pale, some were covered in chaff, and some simply collapsed to the ground, but the chief, Agudam, had a blank face, as if he was neither heartbroken nor worried about his life or death. The ordinary herdsmen in the tribe have complicated expressions, it turns out that the looted property was originally claimed to be used as the public property of the tribe, but who knows that it was privately divided by these nobles, although the people in the tribe are tacitly aware of this, but the Lanzhou army openly announced this matter to the public this time, or ruthlessly ripped off a veil that originally maintained the public interests of the tribe, so that the ordinary herdsmen have a lot less hatred for these tribal nobles, and even many people are happy because their families have not received any Lanzhou goods. Seeing this situation, Pu Hangu couldn't help but secretly admire the arrangement of the commander, the Tuhun army used to patrol the border, and also broke many small tribes on the grassland, and killed a lot of people, but there was no time to make these unruly grassland barbarians so intimidating, it is really the world is big, the truth is the greatest, and the reason for holding a fist is especially great.
This list almost wiped out the upper echelons of the Alatan Ula tribe, Pu Hangu patiently waited for Lei Qi to finish his thoughts, but he was not in a hurry to announce the punishment of them, and after examining the tribe with a cat-and-mouse look, he said loudly: "The rest of the people involved, although they did not share the spoils, also have sins, according to military law, they should all be confiscated as the slaves of my Lanzhou military household, and after three years, they can be turned into a cute household." As soon as these words came out, the cavalry watching around could almost hear the voices of many tribal people squatting on the ground at the same time, indeed, taking them as slaves was the lightest punishment for the defeated tribal people, as for the difference between the moe household and the slave, these tribal people couldn't figure it out at all.
Pu Hangu was high up, saw everyone's reactions in her eyes, smiled coldly, and said, "However, the commander made the lord merciful and gave you sinners a better way out. After speaking, he motioned to the sergeant who was watching next to him to wave his lance and press the tribesmen not to stand up and make noise, and the tribe that had just been disturbed was quiet again.
"I am the heaviest warrior in Lanzhou, if the warriors of the Alatan Ula tribe can meet the standards of my Lanzhou selection sergeant, then he will be given the status of my Lanzhou sergeant, and the honor of joining my Lanzhou hussar battalion, a sergeant can receive up to ten households, if no one meets the standard, all the people of Alatan Ula will be sent to Lanzhou as slaves. ”
As soon as he said this, the tribesmen squatting on the ground were in an uproar, and everyone knew that being led by the warriors of their tribe was very different from being taken to Lanzhou as a slave in the distant distance, and even Xin Gu, who was listening, was quite surprised. The herdsmen of Alatan Ullah have set their sights on a few warriors of their tribe, and Amur is one of them.
