Chapter 166: The world should be returned to me
If Li Jingji is here, he should be able to say that the art of war is cloudy, and he can't enter the forest.
But Liu Ke is not afraid.
The special deprivation of the indigenous people of South Vietnam was intended to cope with this situation.
There is Banihan with mountain special forces, and there is basically no problem, and there is no problem of not being able to catch up.
Even if you get lost for a while, you can quickly find it if you follow the tracks.
"Ah!!h
Just as the Han army was about to go deep into the mountains and forests, there was a sudden panicked sound.
The leaves of the trees in the forest, in the frightened cries of the Donghu people, rattled as if infected by their fear.
Immediately afterwards, the Donghu people who fled in a hurry ran out one by one.
All of them were in front of the Han soldiers, prostrate on the ground, their faces were pale, their eyes wandered, full of panic and confusion.
Their bodies trembled, but they stepped forward one after another, even wanting to grab the thighs of the Han soldiers, so that they could feel more at ease.
Whew-
The wind in the forest also seemed to be affected by this panic.
Awe-inspiring blowing.
It was dark and there was an eerie atmosphere.
The shadows between the trees, swaying, like ghosts about to move, make people feel frightened.
"What the hell"
The soldiers of the Han army looked at each other.
Could it be that there are ghosts in this mountain forest?
They pursued all the way just now, but they didn't make the Donghu people so frightened, what is the situation now??
"Beggar Silie?"
Liu Ke saw that among the Donghu soldiers who ran out in a hurry, there was a burly warrior with a big waist and a round waist, and he was still carrying Qiyan Silie.
"Dead?"
Liu Ke waved his hand to lead the army, let Lei Lan and Bani Han protect him, and stepped forward to investigate.
The Donghu people fell to their knees one after another, not daring to make any moves.
And Qiyan Silie was carried by the warrior, with a few arrows stuck behind him, and there was no reaction.
"It's dead, indeed."
This old dog is already bleeding from seven holes.
It's really not easy to say, I'm already old and sick.
It is already very good to be able to go out in person and fight with the Han army for half a year.
After a big defeat, it's no problem to continue to break through, after all, it's a macho man in the style of the founding king.
If it weren't for Liu Ke's hanging up and being a step ahead, Qiyan Silie would be the founder of the Donghu Dynasty.
But no matter how fierce he is, he can't surpass the limits of human beings.
Under the pretense of killing himself and attracting Donghu Babu to continue to deal with the big Han, he forced his last breath and ran into the mountains and forests.
When I arrived in the mountains and forests, I let out my last breath and naturally died.
It's a bit dramatic.
Those who cheated to death did not die, and those who wanted to live a few more years died in battle.
Liu Ke said solemnly to the Donghu warriors:
"Put it down."
Although the Donghu warriors were still in fear and couldn't slow down, they still looked at Liu Ke with a look of jealousy, unwilling to put down the body of the Great Khan.
"Put it down."
Liu Ke just repeated it again.
The Donghu warriors reluctantly put down the body of Qiyan Silie.
Even so, he stood by and stared closely.
If the Han Emperor had humiliated the body of the Khan, he would have to disregard his life
Forget it, this is a macho man who can chase and shoot after King Khan, even if he doesn't care about his life, it's useless.
Liu Ke squatted down and looked at Qi Yan Silie.
The contours of the cheeks are obvious, engraved with the traces of time, the skin is dry and rough, and the once heroic state has been quietly transformed by the baptism of time.
There are scars from years of fighting, and there are wrinkles intertwined.
His braided hair was messily scattered in front of his forehead, and his brows were furrowed.
Those Donghu people who were lying on the ground, seeing this scene, were even more nervous.
The Great Khan's plan was to hide his body in the mountains and forests of Qiongzhou.
Let Donghu Babu even if he falls into civil strife, he wants to get his body in order to call himself the new Great Khan, so as to constantly stumble the Han Dynasty.
This is a conspiracy.
Even if Emperor Han noticed it, as long as he couldn't find the body, it couldn't be broken.
But now, in their panic, they didn't think much about it at all, and directly resisted the corpse again.
Now that the corpse of the Great Khan is in the hands of the Han Emperor, with his resourcefulness, he must see the calculation.
No matter how you dispose of it, it can be easily cracked.
But Liu Ke just said lightly:
"It's buried here."
Although he even sang before, he said that he would hang the Great Khan of Donghu high in the sky and hang it on the head of Chang'an City.
But now that I have the opportunity, I don't have such a strong will.
Hanging on the capital of the Han Dynasty?
Just a barbarian, also worthy?
It's just this sentence that makes Donghu people feel puzzled.
Didn't Emperor Han see the Great Khan's legacy?
Lei Lan didn't care, even if it was a conspiracy, he didn't see it for a while.
Barnihan is not, after all, he is also a famous general, and he is a little resourceful, and he said:
"Your Majesty, this beggar Silie deliberately went south and went deep into the mountains and forests, he must have wanted to use his corpse to attract the Donghu Babu to attack."
"Even if Donghu Babu doesn't dare to send troops rashly, just sending a detailed work to investigate, it will make us very uncomfortable!"
Liu Ke just shook his head:
"I know."
"But this beggar Silie, who led an army of 200,000 to attack, was defeated."
"Do I still have to be afraid of those shit, only intriguing nonsense?"
"Twenty years ago, I dared to be a hero, got off the horse, and changed into a gorgeous costume, but I was just a group of insects who could sing and dance."
Barnihan was stunned and arched his hand:
"Your Majesty is mighty."
Lei Lan and many soldiers don't understand what they mean, but just follow the matter of sycophancy:
"Your Majesty is mighty!"
In the shouting, even those Donghu people, who were close friends of the Great Khan, were a little moved.
The Han Emperor really was. Imperial spirit.
In the face of this conspiracy, he did not dodge or dodge, but responded head-on.
even planned to let the body of the Great Khan be buried in the ground.
Although this is not in line with the customs of the Donghu people, it is worthy of atmosphere for the Han people.
Thinking about it this way, on the other hand, the Great Khan, who was still calculating before his death, actually faintly fell into place.
"Dig a pit and bury it here."
Liu Ke ordered the soldiers to dig a pit.
Due to the digging of tunnels several times, this is almost like fire prevention, and it has quickly become a necessary skill for the soldiers of the Han army.
Liu Ke turned to look at the restless Donghu soldiers, and a ghost came to his heart:
"Do you want to bury him?"
Donghu people kept silent, but nodded emphatically.
Anyway, if you can't live, it's better to give the Great Khan a funeral.
Life is the Khan's personal guard, and death, he must also protect the Khan.
Liu Ke's voice changed and said:
"What if I'm going to let you go?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is righteous!"
Several of the guards shouted in proficient Chinese.
Who wants to die if they can live?
"If you want to go, you can go now."
"If you are willing to give a martyrdom to Qiyan Silie, dig a pit for yourself."
After a while, most of the guards left.
But there are still hundreds of people, not to mention digging a pit on the spot, and they are willing to give a funeral to Qiyan Silie.
Lei Lan felt that something was not quite right:
"Why did Your Majesty let them live?"
This is a bit contradictory to the previous plan of no prisoners in the Han army!
Liu Kedao:
"You lead the army to chase after you, and if you leave the Donghu people, you won't be left behind, and you won't be killed."
"Yes!"
Lei Lan received the order, and Mei Zizi led the army to chase and kill.
Did the emperor break his promise?
Fart!
Let the Donghu people go, and they didn't say they wouldn't chase!
If you don't learn the arts, you can't run the horse, and you can't go away, you can only say that you deserve it.
"You!!"
The Donghu people who stayed behind and were digging the pit saw Lei Lan leading the army to chase and kill, and for a while, they were angry.
Although those people chose to live between survival and the Great Khan, they were very disdainful of these loyal people.
But after all, they are their own people, comrades-in-arms who fight side by side.
And all the way to this point with the Great Khan breaking through, one hundred percent of his loyalty, at least ninety points.
But Emperor Han actually used this way to humiliate them?!
"You can go."
Liu Ke was not in a hurry or annoyed, waved his hand, and asked the soldiers around him to take three steps back:
"These people, who are willing to give a martyrdom to Qiyan Silie, are all loyal ministers."
"I admire the most loyal ministers."
"Banihan, you lead your army and send them to Hepu County, and you must not hurt them in the slightest."
"Yes!"
Banihan took the order and left, although it was antagonistic, but since the emperor recognized the loyalty of these Donghu people, they also recognized it.
And Banihan thinks more.
The emperor's meaning will never be so simple, it must have a deep meaning.
Liu Ke looked at the two groups of people in the distance and squinted.
He does mean something else.
It's a multi-tasking strategy.
The first is the recognition of their loyalty, which can be used to brush up on the loyalty of their own soldiers.
See, that's what faithfulness looks like.
The second is to let the beggars have internal strife.
These pro-guards who dare to give the martyrdom of Qiyan Silie do not have to worry about their loyalty.
Since Qiyan Silie was dying, he wanted to use his body to attract the eight tribes of Donghu to covet the Han Dynasty.
This group of guards, even if they returned to the tribe, would certainly not easily say where the Great Khan was buried.
But the people with a heart in Donghu Babu are definitely not willing to do this.
So what will be done, needless to say.
The guards will inevitably be targeted, and this is the beginning of the contradiction.
Liu Ke wanted to further intensify the internal contradictions of the Eight Divisions of Donghu.
Third, it can be regarded as an attitude released.
The Han army nominally did not kill prisoners, because there were not a single prisoner.
This is a bit of a counterintuitiveness.
Before, when the eight divisions of Donghu could barely be reunified, they would be killed when they should be killed, and naturally there was no problem.
But now that Qiyan Silie is dead, the eight departments are about to be civil strife or even split, so you can consider it and use some roundabout means.
Otherwise, when the Donghu people were defending the city, they desperately defended it, and it was the Han soldiers who were injured.
It should be right to use the Donghu people to deal with the general direction of the Donghu people.
After a while, the pit was dug.
Liu Ke personally buried the body of Qiyan Silie in it.
As he was about to cover the soil, he took another look and suddenly thought of something.
Liu Ke took out a saber and placed it on the chest of Qiyan Silie's body.
This knife is too blunt, it's not easy to cut people, and it's a waste product, and Geng Sanji will take it to recast, and it is estimated that it is not good to use waste.
"The saber will be returned to you."
Liu Ke patted the dust on his clothes, stood up, and covered the last handful of soil.
I stepped on it with one foot, and it was quite tight.
"Okay, then this world should be returned to me."
The mountains and forests ahead, with the departure of the Donghu people, also gradually fell silent.
Only the lingering sound of falling leaves remained, like a low cry of sorrow.
"It's not going to be haunted, is it?"
After dealing with Qiyan Silie, Liu Ke was not in a hurry to join the army for the time being.
People are always curious.
What happened in the mountains and forests that destroyed Qiyan Silie's last conspiracy, and even let the brave and good fight, kill the Donghu people who broke out of the encirclement all the way, and were also frightened to retreat?
Liu Ke led the soldiers and horses into the mountains and forests.
The soldiers have a kinship, and this ghost is much more difficult to deal with than the Donghu people.
After walking for a while, Liu Ke saw a young general with a white horse and a silver gun from a distance.
“.”
He waved his hand to stop the soldiers.
Waited for a while.
The young man circled around and reappeared in the same place.
Liu Ke couldn't help but give a thumbs up, awesome.
Then he shouted:
"General Zhao!"
Zhao Ning, who was spinning around and confused, suddenly looked up and saw the emperor on the heavy mountain, with a happy face:
"Your Majesty!"
He rode away to pay homage.
Liu Ke waited for a while, and Zhao Ning inexplicably came out from behind the soldiers.
"Why is General Zhao here?"
Zhao Ning arched his hand and said:
"The last general went into the mountains and forests, but he didn't find the way."
The words are very reasonable.
Isn't it normal to get lost in the mountains and old forests?
Liu Ke felt that it was too normal, and continued to ask:
"Just now, the Donghu people have gone into the mountains and forests, have you ever seen them?"
Zhao Ning stood with a spear, listening to his chest, quite proud:
"That's right, the last general just found a group of Donghu people in the mountains and forests."
"It seems that they are all elites, and the last general will rush up to chase and kill for a while."
"Although the first person is old, his martial arts are extremely extraordinary, but fortunately, he is old and frail and died of exhaustion after two moves."
"The group of Donghu people retreated, and the last general kept chasing them to kill."
"But, they ran so fast that they seemed to be very familiar with the terrain, and they hid and hid, and the last general could not be found."
Liu Ke listened to it and laughed.
Well, it's not a ghost, it's Zhao Ning.
Zhao Ning, who suddenly appeared in the mountains and forests, chased a group of Donghu people to kill by himself.
It just so happened that Qiyan Silie died violently again, and the Donghu people didn't seem to have seen a ghost, so it was strange.
"That old man is the Great Khan of Donghu, and General Zhao has a meritorious role in intercepting it."
"Huh?"
Zhao Ning hasn't realized what the situation is, Great Khan?
Is Donghu Da Khan so badly moved, he actually came directly to him to send it?
But it's really awesome, Zhao Ning is conceited and brave, but he didn't expect that the big khan was so old that he could still fight with him back and forth.
Liu Ke thought of something:
"Your senior brother, Fu Xuance is already in the army."
"I found him when I was in Jiaozhi, and this time I made a great contribution to the Puliuru Department."
"General Zhao, do you want to go back with me to meet me?"
When Zhao Ning heard this, he was immediately overjoyed:
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for reuniting my senior brothers!"
As he spoke, he muttered:
"I thought that the second senior brother didn't want to take refuge in the big man, but I didn't expect to get lost, so I ran away."
Liu Ke said again:
"General Zhao, do you know where your senior brother is?"
Zhao Ning has three brothers, the second and third are all good, and the eldest must be more capable.
According to Liu Ke's idea, it is best to connect the teachers of three people and catch them all.
"This"
Zhao Ning shook his head, with some disgust on his face:
"I guess I'm lost."
Well, Liu Ke didn't bother much, Fu Xuance didn't get lost when he went to Jiangdong, how to go and how to go, who took the senior brother to get lost, you can know at a glance.
It seems that among the three brothers, the most awesome has to be Zhao Ning.
It doesn't matter who you are, you can be misguided.
On the way to meet the army, Liu Ke took the time to look at his attributes.
[Name: Liu Ke]
[Age: 20]
[Command: 72; Force: 68; Wisdom: 72; Governance: 64]
[Orthodox: 100]
"The command rate has risen by two points, is it because of the development of the one-two-word pig killing array?"
"After it is confirmed to be effective, in the future, I can directly press it with the army."
"The force has increased by three points, and I killed a beggar Yan Zhen with my own hands, although I didn't kill Qiyan Silie, but so many cold arrows, how could I have caused the most damage."
"Wushuang mowing the grass and killing those heavy armor iron floating slaughter, it is estimated that a lot has been accumulated."
Zhiluo rose by three points, but Liu Ke already felt that it was not too important.
There is the destiny of [why not eat minced meat], and the wisdom value is only a lower limit, and there is no upper limit at all.
Sure enough, the mentally handicapped are the wisest.
[Regal: 2107]
"Huh?"
Liu Ke was slightly shocked, after drawing [Jishi Anmin] last time, there were still 444 points left.
This time it skyrocketed directly.
"Is it because Qiongzhou in the rear has added new talents, or is it because the policy of stock raising is effective?"
However, despite the large amount of money in hand, Liu Ke was not in a hurry to smoke.
Nothing is needed now.
Moreover, Shihai's internal response to stay in Gaozhou has not been used.
If it is used smoothly, it can take down all of Gaozhou.
When the time comes, take three more counties, and it will be 1500 Regal to start.
Then, according to the needs of the current situation, make a gacha plan.
"After all, it's different now than before, it's not so eager, Dahan has entered a new stage."
"Then it is necessary, according to the follow-up strategy, to plan how to draw the destiny of heaven."
"As for the general strategic direction after this"
Liu Ke was a little unsure.
Why don't you eat minced meat and don't use it.
After all, it is better to brainstorm a country's grand strategy, let the important ministers of the DPRK and the central government participate in it, and check and fill in the gaps.
"I am inclined to take Gaozhou, then march into Jingnan, go to Sichuan and Shu into Guanzhong, and recapture Chang'an as soon as possible."
"But I'd better look for more advice."
"When the class teacher returns to the court, I will ask Jia Wuji first."
If you want to say that there is this grand strategic ability in the imperial court, Liu Ke thinks that it is Jia Wuji.
Force, this old man must have an idea in his heart.
——
Qiongzhou.
Quickly reported the defeat of the Donghu army and the death of the Great Khan of Donghu, and brought it back to the imperial court.
Xiao Yuanchang immediately announced the news to the world.
The great victory was conducive to stabilizing the government.
As early as when the Great Khan of Donghu personally conquered and led his troops to capture Xuwen County, Qiongzhou was already unstable.
Able to do their best to maintain until now, there is no civil strife.
Thanks to him and Lian Hansheng, they worked day and night.
On the contrary, before the emperor left, Jia Wuji, who entrusted him with a heavy task, almost did nothing.
If you want to talk about the biggest mess, that is, Jiang Suzhu in the harem, Jiang Jieyu.
Jiang Jieyu may not be used to the days in the palace.
Or those palace maids who serve are all from famous families and are not served.
So that the body is a little weak, and from time to time I get sick.
"This Jia Wuji."
Xiao Yuanchang sighed secretly and got busy again.
Fortunately, in these days, there are many talents who have seen the hope of the Han Dynasty's restoration of the country, and people have thought about the Han and come from afar.
Otherwise, the court is very tight.
"If you can take advantage of the situation to take Gaozhou, Dahan will have Qiongzhou, Jiaozhou, Gaozhou, and the land of three counties."
"Even if you count it again, if you leave Yizhou, there will be four states."
"In this way, the imperial examination can be held again, right?"
Xiao Yuanchang immediately thought about it.
To make up for the lack of middle and low-level officials, it is necessary to consider opening a department to recruit scholars.
In previous years, it was because the imperial court had no time to take care of it, but now that the Great Khan of Donghu is dead, it is time to start over.
Wars are fought with money and grain, but this money and grain are also governed.
It's just that he is a little worried, and the interests of the family are not in line with the interests of the family.
I don't know if those families will have some moths.
Speaking of the imperial examination, Xiao Yuanchang thought of Jia Wuji again.
"This old man is not in the first place, and he has been on the list for decades, but now he is good, he doesn't need the imperial examination, and he has won the trust of His Majesty."
Xiao Yuanchang shook his head, he still didn't look down on some of Jia Wuji's ruthless methods.
In particular, there is a bit of self-respect for the army and the implication that it wants to rebel at any time.
If the war in Gaozhou doesn't go well, I'm afraid this old guy will rebel as soon as possible.
In the Wang's mansion.
After Yang Zhong died, Wang Zhao was the leader of the wall-grass family.
Although life was not good, he was in prison and spent a lot of money to be fished out.
But the prestige is still there, and the status is still there.
However, he was also brave enough to retreat from the rapids, and he didn't dare to be too radical.
After all, with the farce made by the previous draft roster, the family has already reined in.
And no matter how you say it, even if she is a palace maid, her own daughter has already entered the emperor's harem.
The emperor did not establish a queen, but there will be opportunities in the future.
"I don't know what you think of the victory in Gaozhou?"
Wang Zhao deliberately took advantage of the pretext of the great victory of the Han army today to feast his friends.
A group of his friends, who are also members of the family, politely said:
"Gaozhou is a great victory, begging Yan Silie is dead, and the destiny of heaven is in Han!"
Delicacies fill the table, and servants shuttle back and forth.
Everyone raised their glasses to celebrate, like the joy of victory, in the cup.
"Your Majesty is worthy of being the Son of Heaven who has enlightened the Tao in the forest farm, and even God helped the Han Dynasty, and a land collapse knocked down the Donghu people!"
"Yes, I heard that His Majesty chased Qiyan Silie for thousands of miles, how could that old khan ever be so embarrassed!"
"Your Majesty has been invincible since he ascended the throne!"
"It is even more popular with the people, the last part, let the Donghu people give up the grain that will fight again, and even the people of Qiongzhou will send it with a small cart!"
"Those mud legs?"
The nobles of the family toasted each other and exchanged information.
Anyway, whether it's sincere or not, let's blow it out first.
It's just that there are also some hidden exchanges of interests.
After all, this kind of banquet is also of a regular nature.
Gathering together in the name of celebration is actually for the distribution of interests, a power struggle.
The news of the victory, for them, meant a change in the situation, and new opportunities.
It's like after the Han army regained the lost territory, it had to send people to govern it, right? Gotta expand the army, right?
People have to be hired everywhere.
And most of the people who can be used by the imperial court and the people who are useful are not from the family?
Even in the imperial examination, people from the family can stretch out their hands.
Wang Zhao looked at a group of happy friends, how sincere they were, what were they calculating in their hearts, how could he not know?
He stood up and cleared his throat heavily in the face of his friends' gazes.
The chatter in the banquet gradually subsided, and everyone cast concerned and curious eyes.
Wang Zhao held the wine lord, and his voice was still a little trembling:
"You are all old friends."
"The old man doesn't have much to hide."
Something isn't quite right?
Everyone looked serious in an instant, only to hear Wang Zhao's old voice, and the atmosphere instantly became tense.
"The granddaughter of the old man, in the palace, poisoned Jiang Jieyu."
“.”
The nobles of the family exchanged several glances in an instant.
Wang Zhao continued:
"My granddaughter is quite scheming on weekdays, but she didn't expect that just because she was not used to seeing Jiang Jieyu receiving the emperor's favor alone, she would do this kind of thing."
"If it is revealed, there will be great calamity."
Hearing the news, everyone's expressions changed differently.
Someone was dumbfounded and looked at Wang Zhao in disbelief.
Some people frowned, showing dissatisfaction and anger, clearly setting themselves on fire.
Others expressed concern and sympathy.
No one doubted it.
After all, Jiang Jieyu's health has been poor since she entered the palace, which is a well-known thing.
There are also rumors in the palace that he was assassinated.
But Xiao Yuanchang never dealt with it, just opened one eye and closed one eye.
After all, if it is really investigated, I am afraid that it will be widely implicated.
And it belongs to the affairs of the palace, and the ministers are really not easy to interfere with.
But just because you've been okay before doesn't mean you'll be okay in the future.
After the emperor's class returns to the court, if it is investigated, what should be done?
They all knew what Wang Zhao meant, most of them wanted to let Li get the emperor's understanding, and at the same time win the support of other families, and find a way to pass this matter aside.
After all, it's Jieyu, not the queen.
Although favored, it is not so important.
But here comes the outrageous.
"Isn't it my daughter who poisoned her?"
"Jiang Jieyu is seriously ill, isn't it because my granddaughter has a straw man??"
"The incense sent by my youngest daughter said that it was added with something"
"My eldest daughter specially took those unclean drinking water, made some snacks, and gave them to Jiang Jieyu."
The atmosphere suddenly became strange.
You guys did it too??
