Chapter 623: Three Fires

Hu Chuquan was shocked, and when he looked up, the mountain was full of fires and thick smoke.

Arrows stretched like locusts in the high ground ahead, men and horses died on the hillside, and the soldiers clashed, and hurriedly ordered the army to retreat.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Che Ju had already led the soldiers and horses of his headquarters to go first, and hurried to the mouth of the valley, but saw a torrent in front of him sloping down from the valley, converging into the Fen River, cutting off the way.

"There are moss and water stains on those stones, and this king has long seen that something is wrong." Che Ju's face changed miserably, and he regretted that he kicked his leg on the horse.

At that time, when he saw the riverbed, he was suspicious, but in winter there was no water in the mountains, and it was reasonable for the valley to dry up.

In remorse, the sand suddenly fell on the top of his head, and the sky suddenly darkened, and when he looked up, the big stones fell from the cliff, and countless trees as thick as his waist fell down on their heads and faces.

Che Ju was so frightened that he didn't care about the torrent ahead, so he jerked his mount and rushed forward, and the war horse leaped forward and rushed into the riverbed, unable to stand at all, and after a few struggles, he was washed into the cliff.

Countless Hun cavalry also reacted instinctively, beating their horses and rushing forward, all of them were swept into the torrent, and even men and horses were swept into the Fen River.

Zhang Bao was ordered to stay on the opposite side of the riverbank, looking at this spectacular scene, but shaking his head and sighing: "No one rushed over, it's boring!" ”

Hu Chuquan was urging the soldiers to retreat, and when he saw the wood and stones on the cliff falling, the people and horses were buried in a blink of an eye, completely blocking the canyon, and he suddenly fell into despair.

The front was full of dust, the smoke was billowing behind, the fire was blazing, the Huns were coughing repeatedly, and countless people fell to the ground with suffocation.

"Surrender, I am willing to surrender!" Hu Chuquan dismounted in panic, knelt on the ground and shouted with open arms, but it was useless to scream and cut his throat.

On the top of the mountain, Xu Shu and Zhao Yan looked at the misty valley, the heat in the valley hit people, mixed with the smell of burnt skin and flesh, and it was all covered with thick smoke and dust.

Zhao Yan said angrily: "Sir, these three fires have burned the Huns!" ”

Xu Shu looked indifferent and said with a smile: "Since ancient times, water and fire have been the most ruthless, and tens of thousands of lives buried in fire have hurt the heavens and the peace. But in addition to exterminating foreign races and Ningjing Frontier, Xu Shu has a clear conscience. ”

Zhao Yan sighed: "Sir's move is understandable. However, in the land of the West River, there are not only the Southern Xiongnu, but there are still other Hu species, which will take advantage of the situation to rise, and it may be difficult to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. ”

"Civilized ......" Xu Shu's eyes were slightly cold, he looked into the distance and sighed.

Zhao Yan was puzzled: "What does Mr. mean by this?" ”

Xu Shu smiled with relief, hugged his fists and said: "The King of Han once said: Wuhu is also of the same origin, and killing cannot conquer foreign races, only Huairou recruits them, so that they know the etiquette of honor and disgrace and recognize Huaxia." Only when civilizations are of the same origin and are one with each other can we achieve long-term peace and stability. I didn't think so before, but now I know that it is far-sighted, and the ambition of this holy king is beyond our reach! ”

Zhao Yan was also moved when he heard it, and said angrily: "I have long heard that the King of Han built the Han Xingtan in Luoyang and drew a map of the world, and I have admired it for a long time, and I don't know when I will be able to view this map." ”

Xu Shu stroked his beard and smiled: "The Ming Mansion knows the righteousness, abandon the darkness and turn to the light, there is no need to go to the Hanxing Altar to introspect, and celebrate later, I can draw a picture for you." ”

Zhao Yan was overjoyed, hugged his fists and said: "I don't dare to ask for ears." ”

The fire in the Baibo Valley burned for a whole day, tens of thousands of Hun soldiers did not survive, the fire was extinguished, only to see the black ash of the valley, the shape of people and horses could be seen faintly, and the smoke disappeared with the evening breeze.

In this battle, the Han army did not suffer casualties, but the leaders of the Xiongnu Dadan Yu Huchuquan, Zuoxian Wang Liu Bao, and Zuogu Liwang Cheju were all destroyed.

Xu Shu first arrived in Hedong, persuaded to surrender to Zhao Yan, the governor Cao Wei all kinds of soldiers and horses to resist the enemy, three fires will be the main force of the Huns wiped out, since then the folk spread "the new official took office three fires" said.

……

Outside the city of Pingyang, he looked at the city that had turned into ruins, his face was pale, and he had no choice but to retreat to the camp.

After dark, there was no news from the front army, and they sent people to investigate, and learned that the Baibo Valley intersection was blocked, and it turned into a scorched earth, and the Huns disappeared.

Qubei was shocked, and hurriedly retreated to the other side of Luyin Creek, divided his troops to guard the important road, and sent people to inquire about the news of Jiangyi, and he was restless all night.

The next day, the scouts came to report that Jiangyi was also burned by the fire, and there were no horses of their own in the south of Fenshui, they were all guarded by the Han army, and there were sentry horses patrolling along the river.

When several tribal leaders heard that Da Dan Yu and his various armies had been wiped out, instead of grief, their faces were happy.

They all bowed down and congratulated: "Congratulations to the king, congratulations to the king!" ”

He frowned and said, "Where does the joy come from?" ”

"Da Shan Yu and all the ministries have perished, only our right part is left, and the king can rightfully inherit Shan Yu's position, isn't this worth congratulating?"

Smack-

Qubei was furious, shook his hand and slapped the man, and shouted angrily: "The tribesmen and horses are all killed, and the Han army will soon be killed in Xihe County, how can we resist?" Do you want me to be the king of the dead country and leave a stench for 10,000 years? ”

He was about to give the order to retreat, when suddenly the guards came in with a group of people, only to see that all of them were covered in blood and their clothes and armor were tattered, and they knelt down and cried when they entered the tent.

When he went to Beijian, the person who came was the brother of the Xihe tribe, Pan Liuxi, the central handsome, and asked in surprise: "Third brother, what happened?" ”

Pan Liuxi gritted his teeth and said: "After Da Danyu left, the Hutu tribe rebelled, united with the Xianbei Tuoba tribe, and grabbed our territory......"

"What?" Qu Beilian took a few steps back, his face changed miserably, and he scolded: "If the Hutu tribe had just been taken in by us, it would have perished a long time ago, and they dared to bite back?" ”

Several leaders also opened their mouths and couldn't speak, they couldn't loot Hedong, and their homes were gone?

Pan Liuxi's face was full of anger, and he clenched his fists and roared: "This revenge must be avenged, where is the big order now, we must kill it back immediately." ”

The anger on Qubei's face turned into despair, and he shook his head and sighed: "You don't have to go to Da Danyu." ”

Pan Liuxi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Has the battle started?" ”

With a bitter smile, Mu Ran said, "It's over!" ”

Several leaders were completely panicked, and they all surrounded to humble, and now they can't advance or retreat, and their families have been kidnapped by the Xianbei people, and they must be slaves, and they must be rescued as soon as possible.

"This king has long said that the Central Plains should not be where we came!" Qubei shook his head and sighed, and said weakly: "Nearly a thousand years of fighting have proved that we can't fight the Han people. ”

Pan Liuxi was inexplicable, grabbed a leader for questioning, and was shocked when he heard about the war in Hedong.

When the emperor returned to the east, he was ordered to rescue Han Xian and Hu Cai with Bai Boshuai, the Han army at that time was chaotic and attacked each other, and he saw the treacherous changes with his own eyes.

Now that Liu Qi is rejuvenating the Han Dynasty, the Central Plains is unified, the soldiers are strong and the horses are strong, Hu Chuquan is trying in vain to enter the Central Plains through Cao Wei and occupy a place, is this not self-defeating?

Pan Liuxi came back to his senses after a while, and grabbed his humble arm: "Big brother, what should I do now?" ”

He glanced at everyone and said slowly, "I can't beat it...... Join now! ”
