Chapter 48: Wusheling Ridge (5000 plus more)

"How many people are there in the Han Chinese? Didn't Da Shan Yu order him to bring a thousand elites of the royal court to intercept it? How did they get to me? King Hugh Tu said sarcastically!

"The Bank of China said that there were about 100 people in the letter!" Now it's not the Hun royal court, and the minister doesn't have to worry about anything else, he directly called the name of the Bank of China, "I don't know how the commander of the Eagle Shelter Thousand Cavalry led the army?" Even more than 100 Han people can't be caught! "I'm afraid it would be even more surprising if he knew that Ying Pi had been killed by Pan Feng, right?

"The ability of the Eagle Shelter to lead the army is still good!" The Yingpi family is quite powerful, so King Hugh Tu threw the responsibility to the Bank of China and said, "I think it's all the Bank of China saying that this guy who has no eggs is wrong!" If it was just Eagle Pi leading the army, those Han people would have died long ago! ”

It's not for nothing that you can say that! If those Hun cavalry did not ambush in the valley according to the instructions of the Bank of China, but rushed directly on the grassland, Li You and they really might not be able to win so easily!

"Da Dan Yu refuses to treat our Hun warriors well! On the contrary, he trusts such an eggless Han man! "The Bank of China said that he successively assisted the old Shangshan Yu and the military minister Shan Yu, helping them deepen their control over the Xiongnu tribes, and the rights of the kings of the peripheral vassal states such as King Hutu were restricted to a certain extent! This made him quite dissatisfied with what the Bank of China said, so he was not very polite in his words! scolded directly in his own royal tent.

"Your lord, what do you see this letter?" The minister persuaded, "Now the Bank of China says that it is deeply trusted by Da Danyu, and if he says bad things about you in front of Da Danyu, Da Dan Yu will blame him."

"It's winter now! We haven't prepared enough forage for the winter! And he got someone to do these things for him? King Hutu waved his hand impatiently, "Leave him alone! The Han people are weak, even if they cross the river, they can't climb the snowy mountain! Sooner or later, these people will die in the snowstorm! What are you doing with that effort? ”

"Go and reply to the Bank of China! Just say I know! Manpower has been arranged to block all the main roads, and those Han people can't get through! "Although I don't want to, these face-saving things are still going to be done by King Hutu! After saying this, he waved his hand to signal the minister to leave, and closed his eyes again to enjoy.

Three days later, the fast-paced Bank of China said that he and Submu converged next to the tribe that had been erased by Li You! The Hun cavalry behind him escorted the Qiang people who had defected to other tribes and were searched out by them.

"You're saying those Han people killed your young people! And you are forced to help them build rafts to cross the river? "The Bank of China said that when he looked around, he didn't see any traces of large-scale felling of trees around, so he whipped it with two whips!" What does it look like you've built a raft? ”

"Noble! They dismantled our tents and forced us to peel off the whole sheepskin and blow it into air bags and put it under a raft made of fine wood before we crossed the river! Look, my lord, there are traces of their burning rafts across the river! The old Qiang man, who had been spared by Li You, pointed to the other side of the river and said.

The Bank of China said to take a closer look, where there are indeed traces left after the fire! He leaned down and said, "Do you remember how the raft was made?" I'll order sheep and wood from other tribes!" If you can help us cross the river, I'll spare your dog's life!" If not, throw you and your little cubs into the river! ”

"Yes, noble!" The old Qiang people trembled and agreed! But he didn't know whether he could make a raft, he was only responsible for peeling the skin to make airbags, and he didn't know how to build a raft at all! May those who helped build the raft remember!

The Hun cavalry was divided into three groups, one group stayed here to guard these Qiang people, and the other group went south and north to sweep the surrounding Qiang tribes! These tribes that had just been sacked by the Xiongnu not long ago ushered in the catastrophe, the horses and sheep they had worked so hard to raise were looted by the Xiongnu, and the young and strong people in the tribe were also taken to the Yellow River by the Huns.

Even if these young men can finally return to the tribe, without these sheep for winter, I don't know how many people will freeze and starve to death this winter, and the bad luck that befell the Dian Liang tribe not long ago will now befall them again.

At this time, the Han Dynasty mission led by Li You was also facing a severe challenge, and Tang Yi's father pointed to the towering snow-capped mountains in front of him and said, "Envoy, the Western Regions are vast and sparsely populated, and the Huns are scattered among them!" As long as we avoid the nomadic places of these Huns, we can avoid confrontation with them! ”

"Therefore, the Huns are not our biggest enemies in this westward journey, but the snow-capped mountains, deserts, and swamps are the most dangerous places! If you want to reach the Otsuki clan! We have to climb over this snowy mountain! Father Tang Yi said in a serious tone, "There are not only violent storms and snowstorms on the Great Snow Mountain, but also narrow mountain roads, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss and fall to pieces!" ”

Li You secretly recalled the map of the next generation, and probably guessed that the snow-capped mountain might be Wusheling Ridge! This is the only way for Chang'an to the Western Regions! In addition to them, in the future, Huo Qubing went to Longxi and Tang Xuanzang went to the west to learn scriptures, and they all went to Wusheling Mountains.

"The mountains are steep, so don't carry too many things!" Li You made a decisive decision, "Go to the bottom of the mountain today to rest for one night, and throw away all the extra things early tomorrow morning!" Get ready to climb this mountain! ”

"Yes!" The crowd was commanded to move on! As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, and from here it seems to be very close to Wusheling Ridge, as if it can be walked in one or two hours! However, they did not reach the bottom of the mountain until nightfall!

"Mother! This broken mountain is really high! Pan Feng stood at the bottom of the mountain, looking up at the Wusheling Ridge covered with snow with his mouth wide open! Chen Qingzhi even subconsciously shrunk his neck! Growing up in the South, he is more afraid of the cold than everyone else!

"Envoy! Such a high mountain! Can we really get there? "The highest Zhongnan Mountain near Chang'an is only more than 2,600 meters above sea level, and Huashan is only more than 2,100 meters! It was far worse than the Wusheling Ridge, which was more than 3,500 meters high, and it was no wonder that these soldiers were afraid.

Li You took a deep breath, since the famous Carthaginian general Hannibal was able to lead a large army over the Alps at an altitude of more than 3,000 meters seventy-eight years ago, then there is no reason why we Han people can't climb the Wusheling Mountains!

"Huh! You have even defeated the elite of more than 1,000 Xiongnu royal courts, are you still worried that you won't be able to climb a single mountain? He pretended to smile and said, "Sleep well at night, recuperate your spirits, and let's climb the mountain together tomorrow!" ”

At the same time, under the persecution of the Bank of China, the first sheepskin raft imitated by the Qiang people has also been made and is ready to be launched! BOC said standing on the shore and quietly watching the first people to board the ship!
