Chapter 651: The End of the Huns
Regarding Nangong Yuan's attitude, Luo Shiqing didn't know what she should say at this time.
Those tribes on the steppe are probably at the point where it is difficult to ride tigers now, right?
In the face of the Huns, they may not be able to give all their strength, in any case, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse.
Although the Huns did suffer heavy losses this time, their own strength did not decrease much.
They were able to achieve this victory, it was just because the weapons and equipment in their hands were countless times better than those Huns, and the other was Nangong Yuan's surprise, otherwise, how could those Huns be defeated so quickly?
But compared to those tribes on the steppe, the combat strength of the Huns is still like that, they couldn't beat the Huns before, and now even if the Huns lose the battle, they can't win.
But in this way, those people can at least cause a lot of trouble for the Huns, right? No matter how bad it is, it can drag the speed of the Huns.
Anyway, they are all aliens, so let them eat dogs, and in this way, if they want to rule this land in the future, it will be much more convenient.
"Lady, after we expel the Huns, let's go back quickly, as for the matter here, go back and let my father send someone to deal with it, after all, we have to save a little face for our father, right?"
Listening to Nangong Yuan's words, although Luo Shiqing didn't quite understand what Nangong Yuan meant by this, but since Nangong Yuan had already said this at this time, she naturally wouldn't object a little.
If it is now the time when the spring flowers are blooming and the grass grows and the warbler is flying, she naturally will not want to go back, and she will definitely pull Nangong Yuan to gallop on such a deceitful land.
But now, on such a cold day, you still have to wear so tightly when you go out, and if you are not careful, it is very likely that you will directly toss yourself and catch a cold, Luo Shiqing doesn't want to stay in such a place anymore, when will she have time to go back, she will sneak out with Nangong Yuan to play again.
Nangong Yuan naturally didn't know about Luo Shiqing's thoughts, if he knew, he might be speechless.
With the two of them, you still want to escape? This is obviously impossible, well, it is estimated that they have not yet run out of the range of the capital, and they have already asked the emperor to bring him back.
"Report ...... Your Highness, the people of the seventy-two divisions of the steppe have already been dispatched, and they are now passing in the direction of the Huns. ”
This sudden news made Nangong Yuan's heart happy, for him, this is really good news, originally he thought that although those grassland tribes would send people to attack the Huns, they shouldn't be so fast, but at this moment, they were actually touched so quickly, does this mean that it will not be long before these people will be in close contact with the Huns?
"Okay, give an order to the whole army, slow down the march, recuperate your physical strength, and wait for work."
For these soldiers, it is basically not a problem to travel fifty or sixty miles a day, and Nangong Yuan has issued such an order at this time, doesn't that mean that they are basically resting now?
If there is such a beautiful good thing, the soldiers will naturally not oppose it, who will oppose this kind of good thing?
glanced at Nangong Yuan lightly, Luo Shiqing was really speechless at this moment, this move to "drive away the wolf and devour the tiger" was going to be played bad by him, if it was a wolf, it was naturally not the opponent of the Huns, the tiger, and the injured tiger was also a tiger, and it was absolutely impossible to become a soft and cute cat.
But now, Nangong Yuan asked this group of wolves to deal with this injured tiger, no matter how powerful this tiger is, but he will still be torn apart by the wolves, and his two fists are invincible with four hands.
Moreover, what Nangong Yuan and Luo Shiqing didn't know was that the current Huns themselves were already divided internally, how could they be the opponents of those tribes?
Mao Dun's current life can be described as dire, those patriarchs began to attack him one by one, and these people still attacked him under the leadership of Li Wuxian.
Although Mao Dun knew that Li Wuxian's person was very dangerous, he still chose to form an alliance with him, and now Li Wuxian actually wanted to do something to him...... In any case, Li Wuxian has always been his hardcore ally, but now he is falling into the well at this time......
What made Mao Dun even more loveless was that he felt that there was always a pair of eyes staring at them behind them along the way, this feeling was very subtle, and Mao Dun himself couldn't say why he had such a feeling.
It took a huge price to calm down the patriarchs, but he had now discovered a serious problem.
If they don't go back soon, when the news of their defeat spreads all over the grassland, those people on the grassland will definitely not sit idly by, those people exist for their own interests, as long as they can touch their hearts, no matter how bold things are, they will do it.
In this way, they can't guarantee that their tribe will not be attacked by those people, after all, although they said that their Xiongnu suffered a snow disaster this time, but in the same way, aren't other tribes still the same as them?
Moreover, because their Xiongnu went to attack Wei, which led to the closure of those border cities in Wei, the things they needed could not be obtained from the Wei people at all now, all of this was caused by their Xiongnu, in this case, how could they easily let go of the Xiongnu?
The more he thought about this, the more panicked Mao Dun's heart became, a day's march had already exhausted the Hun army half to death, and now they had no iron pot or anything like that in their hands, so they could only light a bonfire, and then kill horses to satisfy hunger.
In the past few days, the Huns have also been accustomed to such a state of life, every morning after waking up in a hurry, they hurriedly turned over on the horse, and then continued their escape to the end of the world, and at night, and then continued to kill those who had been injured, the old war horses.
Although they are still very uncomfortable in their hearts, but there is no way to do it, what else can they do? You can't really starve yourself to death for the sake of these war horses, right?
If you really die in such a place, what should your family do?
The Huns don't think that after they die, the nobles in the tribe will properly settle their families, and I'm afraid it would be good if they didn't bully those orphans and widows.
The Huns in the lower echelons didn't know that the danger was now approaching them step by step.
Because they have bullied the tribes on the grassland over the years, those tribes are not as powerful as the Xiongnu, so naturally they can't send out their anger, so they can only hold back those grievances in their hearts.
And now the Huns themselves have suffered a once-in-a-lifetime defeat, their tribes will never let go of these people, they will not be so stupid, if they don't take advantage of this good time to take revenge on the pain given to them by the Huns, I don't know when they will have such a great opportunity next time.
And these Huns themselves don't know these at all, in their opinion, those tribes on the steppe don't have the courage to attack them at all, although they are now defeated, but to clean up those small tribes, that's not a hand?
Yes, since the Huns entered the grassland, they are very relieved when they sleep at night, although this is not their own territory, but none of the tribes on the grassland dare to provoke them, so they naturally don't have to be afraid so much.
The mentality of these Huns is very dangerous, and these things are well known to them, but what can they do? With his current prestige, although he is still a big Danyu, his control over the Xiongnu is not as good as before.
Although those patriarchs have not completely abolished him now, they are no longer looking at him as a horse, and they have already joined Li Wuxian's men one by one.
Mao Dun knew this very well in his heart, but there was no way at all, what else could he do? Now he can only hope that Li Wuxian will be able to bring all these people back, as for himself, after going back this time, I am afraid that there will be no hope.
As the night deepened, the Huns, who had fled all day, fell asleep after they had eaten their fill, and now they were almost exhausted, and they had to recover their physical strength first.
Just when the Huns were sleeping boldly, a team suddenly appeared not far away.
Of course, these people are not the army under Nangong Yuan's command, and now that they have received Nangong Yuan's order, they will not march so quickly to pursue the Huns.
Now the Huns in their opinion, that is basically no different from the lost dog, at this time or don't chase too tightly, after all, the dog is anxious but will jump the wall, the rabbit is anxious that will bite people, not to mention those Huns?
At this time, they don't have to do too much at all, they just need to follow them from a distance, causing a pressure in their hearts, forcing them to continue to run away.
As for letting the Huns fight them or something, isn't that already in the past? The Huns now have no strength to fight against the Wei army, so why should they chase so closely?
Besides, Nangong Yuan has already asked people to order all the departments of the grassland to pursue the Huns, at this time, they naturally have no need to chase anymore, and they still have to leave the battlefield to these aliens.
All the tribes of the grassland have been oppressed by the Xiongnu for so many years, and now there is such a good opportunity for them to take revenge, in this case, how can they let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?
With the neighing of the war horses, a group of people rushed into the Huns like wolves into a flock of sheep, brandished the scimitar in their hands, and cut down at the Huns.
The Huns were directly blinded by these people who suddenly appeared, and they didn't understand, hadn't the Wei army been thrown off by them, how could they catch up so quickly?
It was only by the light of the fire that he could see clearly, and the people who came were not Wei people at all, but tribes of the steppe, which angered those Huns.
However, by the time the Huns organized their forces to resist, those people had already fled, and they did not fight the Huns at all, and when they left, the Huns looked at the corpses all over the ground, and no one had the courage to sleep anymore.
They originally thought that they had retreated to the grassland, and that they would be basically safe, but they didn't expect that even if they returned to the grassland, they would still be attacked, and after just a while, thousands of people were killed, and they would never see their wives and children again.
