Chapter 0423 - Joke, Why Are You Still Serious?
"It's a pity~"
"It's a pity······" The battle, it's over; When it came, the main force of the Xiongnu Zuoxian King, with more than 60,000 combat troops, was finally able to get out of Mayi with only 20,000 horsemen from the headquarters of Zuoxian Wang, as well as some scattered remnants.
But it made Jin She feel extremely regretful: Zuo Xian Wang was not besieged by this Ma Yi and stayed south of Wuzhou······
"Alas······"
"If you can leave the Xiongnu Zuoxian King behind, even if it's just the head~"
"It's a pity, it's a pity·········" Seeing Jin She standing in front of the plank road, he couldn't stop shaking his head and sighing, but the hearty smile on Liji's face was even brighter.
"Marquis Xinwu, you don't have to worry about it;"
"In this battle, the gains of my Han family are the most since the Han Dynasty!"
"——Because of the main force of the Northern Barbarian Huns' 'besieged and besieged, trapped and annihilated', it is more sufficient to promote the prestige of our Han Dynasty!"
"When you return to Chang'an, Your Majesty is a different surname and Wang Xinwuhou, and it is difficult to say that it cannot be ······" Hearing Li's words, Jin She only subconsciously turned his head sideways, and his eyes widened suddenly!
After seeing the obvious ridicule on Liji's face, Jin She shook his head with a wry smile, and glanced around without a trace.
"What the prince said is nothing more than a sword mountain and a sea of fire, and put it under a certain body······"
"If the 'person with a heart' hears it, he will also go to the son of the world to mourn, and then take care of his wife and children at home, and take care of ······ for a while." Hearing the secrecy in Jin She's tone, Li Ji also knew that she had lost her words for a while, so she immediately gave her hand to Jin She sincerely.
When Jin Xi's face stiffened and helped him up, on Liji's face, there was once again that touch of heartfelt joy.
"The result of this battle, according to the prediction of Wuhou, should there be geometry?"
"-If you follow a certain and behead the thief, I am afraid that there will be no less than 20,000 levels!"
"In addition to this, 20,000 were beheaded, and more than 20,000 were captured and surrendered, and there was no count."
"Especially in this battle, tens of thousands of horses of the Han family ······" As she spoke, Liji's face was involuntarily filled with excitement; Speaking of happiness, he rubbed his hands regardless of his image, and licked his lips greedily.
As for Jin She, although he had a light and unshocked look on his face, he was secretly smiling.
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the names of these two people to each other: the two of them at this moment have completely adjusted from the tense atmosphere of wartime, and the emotions that have been tense in the past period of time are also completely relaxed at this moment.
-- During the war, Jin Sheke never used the slightly ridiculous title of 'Shizi' to call Liji, and Liji was rarely referred to by the title of 'Marquis of Xinwu', and more often than not, he was still referred to by the position of 'Taiwei'.
But at this moment, looking at the Hun captives all over the mountains and fields, and the war horses gathered together by the soldiers of the Han army, the smiles on the faces of the two finally reached the bottom of their eyes.
- In this battle, the Han army won! And the victory is beautiful enough and wonderful enough!! Whether it is the improvement of the external strategic situation of the Han dynasty after this war, or the improvement of its internal prestige, or even the actual gains, they all tell Jin She and Li Ji without exception: This is an unprecedented victory that has never been seen since the Han Dynasty!
And this feeling makes these two veterans who have been in battle for a long time and are used to seeing big scenes feel a little hesitant.
When will the Han family's army be able to end a 'tens of thousands vs tens of thousands' small and medium-sized war in just one day?
When was the Han family able to win such an overwhelming victory in the hands of the Huns under the premise that they did not have too much advantage in numbers?
It was not until this time that Liu Ying, the Son of Heaven, who was thousands of miles away and sitting in the Weiyang Palace in Chang'an, finally appeared in the minds of the two.
Of course, even if there is only this contribution, Jin She and Li Ji have to admit that this support alone has brought great help to the two leaders and saved them a lot of unnecessary trouble.
But if you push back the time, to the year before the death of Emperor Taizu Gao Liu Bang, on the bank of Zheng Guoqu, which was in full swing of renovation, Liu Ying's contribution to this battle appeared in the minds of the two like slides, one after another······
"The first ······ of this battle" Whispering, Jin She slowly lowered his head and looked at the scale armor on his body that had been urgently built by Shaofu before the expedition; Turning sideways again, looking not far away, the tiger pawns who sat in a circle, with the help of each other, took off the plate armor on their bodies, and the long-handled Mo knife that the tiger pawns were sandwiched between the pushes and did not dare to let go for a moment······
"The first merit of this battle, I am afraid that it should belong to Your Majesty, with the second colonel of Huben and Yulin, to lead this battle?" The deep voice also provoked Liji on the side to nod his head full of feelings, and a touch of embarrassment immediately appeared on his face.
"Your Majesty, although he is not as wise and martial as Emperor Taizu, he is also unique in style compared to the monarchs of thousands of years ago;"
"Recently, it is inevitable to think: If Emperor Taizu Gao is here, he will abolish the crown prince and set up Mrs. Qi's son······"
"Huh······"
"I'm afraid of my Han family, it is difficult to have today's prosperity and strength, and the great victory of this battle······" Hearing this, Jin Shu secretly thought about it for a while, and couldn't help but nod his head sincerely, saying that he also agreed with Liji's opinion.
Of course, the two also knew in their hearts: this is just the beginning; Today's Han family is not at the peak of Liu Ying's reign, but has just 'emerged'.
With the passage of time, and one after another great victories that will inevitably occur in the future, the Han family will only embark on a stronger and more prosperous road······
"Whew~"
"I don't know what kind of plan the court was on the north wall after the war······" Taking a long breath and moving his attention from the sighs and sighs of the past back to his eyes, Jin She looked at Liji's gaze, and then brought a little temptation.
Because Jin Shu knew in his heart that in the final analysis, he was only a founding father who was close to reaching his peak in the category of 'martial arts', and compared to the young and strong Liji, he was already at the age of burying half of his neck in the soil.
Regarding the question of 'how to fight the battle', Jin She was completely sure, patted his chest and said: That kid from Liji, I'm afraid it will take another ten or twenty years to learn before he can be compared with me!
But for the things above the temple, Jin She can only hope to get some possibility of 'spying into the sacred heart' from Liji's mouth······ Hearing Jin She's words, Li Jizi also understood Jin She's intentions, but she didn't show too obvious changes in expression.
Naturally, he sighed, straightened his waist again, grabbed his belt with both hands, and saw Liyo raise his head leisurely and point in the northwest direction.
"The rest of the things, so-and-so are difficult to say;"
"That's all there is to it."
"——In the clouds, there will be great changes!" said a word without hesitation, and Liji's face was also full of spirit.
"The beginning of the first battle of Ma Yi was that His Majesty wanted to fight in Hu in the clouds, but the soldiers and horses in Guanzhong did not arrive, and the clouds broke first."
"Although later, a certain lieutenant Yu led the army to turn the road, garrisoned in Mayi, and set up this 'siege of Mayi' to severely defeat the northern barbarians, but the danger in the clouds may not be eliminated."
"And in this battle, the Han family won a big victory, and the Xiongnu Zuoxian King left in embarrassment."
"—In three or five years, the border wall should be able to fight for a few years and be peaceful;"
"However, after this battle, the Han and Hungarian conscriptions and disputes were endless, and three or five years later, they suddenly rose on the side wall."
"At that time, the gains and losses in the clouds will be the first concern of the court."
"Daibei, it should also be the important place for the court to consider again and again, and determine the policy······" The voice full of worry also made Jin She on the side slowly nod his head, and secretly thought about the changes and impacts brought by this battle to the strategic pattern of Han and Hungary.
Perhaps in the eyes of ordinary people, this battle is simply 'the Han family won, the Xiongnu lost'; but in fact, anyone with a little common sense can predict that after such an overwhelming victory, the Han family will inevitably lead to a crazy counterattack by the Huns!
The reason is simple: the Huns, only defeated, not dead. If you really have to calculate it carefully, the losses of the Xiongnu in this battle could not even shake the foundation of the Xiongnu's 'steppe hegemon' and the strategic advantage in the confrontation between the Han and Hungary.
That is, this battle made the Huns lose almost the entire Aries Department, the Zhilan Department, and lost most of the Lou Fu Department, which will make the Xiongnu only have a little angina; This defeat will also most likely shake the status of the Xiongnu's 'prince', Zuo Xian Wang, in the hearts of all the tribes of the grassland, as well as the majesty of Shan Yu's heir.
In addition, the Huns lost almost only 350,000 soldiers of subordinate tribes in this battle, and 60,000 or 70,000 slaves and vassals.
That's all. Because in this battle, the Xiongnu only lost the current troika of the Aries Department, the Zhilan Department, and the Loufu Department; It can even be said that only part of the power of this troika has been lost.
Although this time, almost all of the troika that went south with King Zuoxian's porridge were buried outside Mayi, but the three tribes of Baiyang, Zhelan, and Lou Fu still exist intact on the grassland!
As long as the Xiongnu are willing to spend their money and are willing to wait patiently for these tribes, through the unique process of 'electing the leader, electing the warriors, and strengthening the tribe', it is only a matter of time before the troika reappears on the grassland.
And in this siege of Mayi, the real key is the Zuoxian King and the 18,000 cavalry under his command.
But neither of them, Jin She was able to stay outside this Mayi······
"Whew~~~"
"That's it;"
"Xu is the Nadi chieftain porridge, and his life should not be ······" Full of regret, he let out another sigh, turned sideways again, and finally glanced at the natural plank road, Jin She shook his head and pointed to the plank road.
"Destroy it!"
"Sigh again at the mountains and forests and cliffs on the first line of Mayi-Wuzhou, but see the trails and these plank roads, they are also destroyed!" With a low roar of slight resentment, the soldiers on the side secretly shrank their necks, and then scattered in all directions.
When I found the tools to bear it, I saw that the hundreds of miles long natural plank road was destroyed by these children of good families from Guanzhong, hammer after hammer, chisel after chisel.
As for Jin She, he gently pushed Liji's shoulder and walked to the middle of the cliff.
"That is, the war has ended, a certain bento will be turned back first, so as to return to Mayi, repair the war report, and send it to Chang'an."
"The matter here, I am afraid that it will be the son of Lao Shizi, and then the beheading, captivity, and the capture of the war horse will be reported in detail, and it will be submitted to a certain person as soon as possible." Seeing Jin She talking about business, Li Jizi also hurriedly straightened her waist and nodded to Jin She with a serious face.
Seeing Jin Shu look at the left and right mysteriously, he pulled Li Ji to take two more steps, leaned his upper body forward slightly, and his voice was extremely low.
"I think that after this battle, the court will be as the prince said, and lay heavy defenses in the clouds!"
"Now that Ma Yi is fighting horses, Hu Lu is defeated, and there should be more than 10,000 Han troops going north to Yunzhong."
"——A certain meaning, when the report is reported to Chang'an, there should be a prince leading the army, and he will go to the clouds for a while."
"When His Majesty's will arrives, we will obey the order again······" Hearing Jin She's words, Li Ji secretly thought about it for a while, and nodded without hesitation.
"Xinwu Hou doesn't have to be like this;"
"Although he is not as old as the Marquis of Xinwu, he has also followed Emperor Taizu Gao for a long time, and he has been around for a long time, conquest of Zhu Ying, Zhu Xiang, and the kings of the late Qin Dynasty."
"It's such a trivial matter." made a promise with an oath, and Lizhu did not forget to grin a little, half-joking, and at the same time half-reminded and ridiculed: "Just go here, don't wait for the beginning of spring, I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Chang'an." ”
"If you believe that the Marquis of Wu intends to eat it, it doesn't hurt."
"——Only the martial arts of the lieutenant generals, the Marquis of Xinwu, but there must be no 'mistakes and omissions'?" Hearing the deep meaning in Li's words, Jin She couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, and his eyes immediately brought a touch of calmness.
"A certain old man is already at the height of the captain;"
"After this battle, a certain bento should return to his hometown to retire for the rest of his life."
"-The prince is not worried;"
"The 3,300 households of the Marquis of Xinwu, and the rewards given by His Majesty after the war, are enough to make three generations of a certain family rich."
"Yu Shizi, and the martial arts of all soldiers, some, break the desire to selflessly seize ······" It was also half joking, half serious promise, but it only provoked Li Ji to smile indifferently, and reached out and patted Jin She's arm.
And then drop the sentence 'I'm kidding, why are you still in front of it?' After teasing, he saw that Li Ji gave Jin Shu a little bow, and then walked towards the prisoner of war camp in the distance.
While walking, Liji did not forget to remind the soldiers around him to be careful about the captured war horses.
Behind him, looking at the back of Lizhi leaving, Jin She was a little distracted.
"The Holy Monarch is in the ······"
"The country is rich and the army is strong, and the ······"
"—Shizi, it can really be said that he was born at the right time·········"
