Chapter 346: The Emperor's Eldest Grandson Goes to Jiangnan
PS: There was a bit of a bug in the last chapter. King Wusun is difficult to hunt and proud, and he wrote it as Morodan. Corrected
Mo Luo Dan was defeated, and the more than 30,000 Wusun soldiers under his command, except for the 5,000 guards around Wusun Wang, were the most elite men and horses in Wusun.
In this battle, almost all the troops were wiped out.
In the end, Morodan, who was barely refreshed, took the people who fled back and began to gather manpower, and it took three days to barely gather three or four thousand remnants of the defeated generals, and most of them were injured.
One by one, they were frightened, and their morale was extremely low.
After learning that Mo Luo Dan suffered a big loss at the hands of the Qin people, and more than 30,000 Wusun elites were almost wiped out, the king of Wusun was so angry that he almost vomited blood on the spot.
I can't wait to cut this unsuccessful dog thing with my own hands.
Compared with Qiuzi, Gumo and other countries, although Wusun can be called powerful, the loss of nearly 30,000 elites also made Wusun weak.
"The reason why the son came back with a brazen face is just to tell his father the truth about this defeat, so that his father can prepare early......"
Morodan knelt on the ground with his hair scattered, his voice hoarse, and he did not shy away from looking at King Wusun, who was sitting behind a few cases.
It is difficult to hunt the arrogance and laugh back, suppress the anger in his heart, and say coldly.
"I really gave birth to a good son, and at this time, I can still remember this king!"
As if he hadn't heard the sarcasm in his tone, Morodan straightened his waist when he heard the words, and his expression became more and more solemn.
"Father, this defeat is not a crime of war, it is really because the Qin people are blessed by the martial gods, and they will use the law of divine thunder, and the 30,000 troops under my command are all killed and injured under the bombardment of the Qin people's divine thunder——"
As soon as Morodan said this, there was an instant uproar in the big tent.
It's so hard to hunt so arrogant that my nose is almost crooked.
In other words, he was not so angry.
Blessed by the Martial God, bombarded by the Divine Thunder......
I didn't find this kind of excuse for a long time, I really think this king is confused, right?
Mo Luojian, who had already felt coldly watching and waiting to see his younger brother's jokes, couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and couldn't help but scold.
"Don't talk nonsense!"
He stepped forward and looked at Morodan like a disappointing brother.
"Second brother, defeat is defeat, it's not a big deal, at most it's to receive some punishment from your father, and after a while, it's a big deal to plead with your father for your brother, but why do you make up such a ridiculous reason to deceive your father! Could it be that you really think that your father is confused? ”
Mo Luo Dan didn't even glance at his brother who jumped out, and looked straight at the arrogance that was about to explode.
Deep voice.
"Although Erchen is guilty this time, when did Erchen deceive his father? What's more, to use such an absurd excuse? ”
With that, Mododan got up from the ground.
"Erchen is willing to die to show his will, and he also asks his father to personally ask those soldiers who have retreated with Erchen after the death of Erchen, lest the Qin people kill him, and still don't know how to deal with it!"
Speaking of this, without hesitation, he snatched the scimitar from the waist of the guard on the side and wiped it fiercely towards his neck.
That decisive move made everyone in the hall feel shocked.
"Your Highness not!"
In a moment's time, King Zuoxian, who was standing not far from Morodan, rushed up and grabbed the scimitar in Morodan's hand, and forcibly took it from him regardless of the danger.
Looking at the bloody wound on his son's neck, King Wusun's face finally changed a little.
Just now, as long as his Zuo Xian King slowed down a little for a moment, he was afraid that his son would not be able to be saved.
He turned his head and looked at King Zuo Xian on the side.
"Go and see how this fool was defeated, and he actually lost so many brave and warlike warriors in my Wusun!"
Seeing that the situation was about to be reversed, Morojian on the side also burst out.
"Erchen is also willing to accompany King Zuo Xian to investigate."
King Wusun nodded proudly.
"Good!"
……
Before Morodan came, he had already prepared, and his soldiers did not even change their equipment, so they took them directly to the king's tent. Looking at the smoky remnants of the defeated generals, King Zuo Xiang and Mo Luojian couldn't help but stare slightly.
Even if King Zuo Xian was originally inclined to Mo Luodan, the second prince, when he saw the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but have a look of surprise in his eyes.
These three or four thousand people, although all of them were injured and miserable, but at first glance they were not ordinary sword wounds.
The rest of the matter is very simple, pull people apart and ask them individually.
Soon, they got a piece of news that none of them could believe it.
The Qin people may really know how to thunder!
Fire, loud noises, and astonishing lethality.
Who else can do this but the god of thunder in the sky?
When this judgment was transmitted back to the king's tent, everyone in the great tent could not help but look at each other. But if this news only comes from the mouth of King Zuoxian, they can still suspect that King Zuo Xian is covering up for the second prince, but this time, King Zuo Xian is also accompanied by the eldest prince Mo Luojian.
Even Morojian acquiesced in this result!
The atmosphere inside the big tent was a little stagnant for a moment.
In the end, King Wusun had to bring his ministers to come forward in person, call people over to inquire, and repeatedly ask about every detail.
Then they heard a few words that were repeated and emphasized.
The fiery serpent in the night, and the terrible loud noise.
Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to open their mouths for a while.
……
Compared with Wusun, who had a solemn atmosphere and was at a loss, Qin Jun's side had already fallen into a carnival.
This time.
There were no casualties except for the fact that some people accidentally stumbled on their horses, fell into the ravine and were seriously injured, or ran away when they retreated.
There was almost zero battle damage, and tens of thousands of troops in Wusun were completely annihilated!
This news completely suppressed the three kingdoms of Qiuzi, Wulei, and Weitou, Wensu and Gumo who were still hesitating to wait and see the surrounding areas, as well as Yutou, Wensu and Gumo on the banks of the Aksu River!
They never imagined that the Qin army would be so powerful, in their eyes, the powerful and domineering Wusun prince Mo Luodan, was vulnerable, and tens of thousands of terrible Wusun troops were almost razed to the ground by the Qin people overnight.
On the battlefield, the stumps and broken arms are everywhere, and under the Wuling Mountains, it is like purgatory on earth.
Almost as soon as they received this terrible news, they sent their own envoys with generous gifts to show goodwill to Great Qin.
The originally ambiguous attitude was also instantly distinct, and it directly came to a 180-degree turn.
As a result, under Liu Bang's command, he successfully added a few more little princes of the Western Regions, and then there were also a few more friendly troops that were quite active.
Liu Bang's confidence suddenly increased.
However, he did not swell to the point that he led his troops to Wusun's lair, but took the opportunity to start rectifying his territory in the Western Regions, expanding the scope of control, and then writing a letter to report the victory to the imperial court!
Whether it is defeating Wusun or subduing the countries of the Western Regions, it is a real achievement.
After Wusun suffered this big loss, he did not dare to retaliate, and even silently withdrew hundreds of miles north, shifting his center of gravity to the area from Khotan to the Ili River, widening the distance between him and the Qin people.
……
Just when Liu Bang was in the Western Regions and showed his skills, the war between Xiang Yu and Mao Dun also entered the most tragic stage.
Mao Dun sent the king of the right valley, who is still strong to this day, and personally supervised the battle. As for the Tuyu tribe, Xiang Yu rarely attacked in person, but sat in command.
The two sides are close to each other, and they do not give an inch.
Both sides were red-eyed, the men and horses were lost wave after wave, and the white road was under the river, the blood flowed like a river, and the ground turned black and brown. This was the most tragic battle since the Tuyu tribe fought with the Xiongnu.
From dawn until dark.
Thousands of people were lost on both sides.
From beginning to end, Xiang Yu watched coldly and didn't say a word, while Cao Shen's eyes were a little deep and complicated. But he knew that perhaps Xiang Yu's actions at this time were the most correct choice.
"General Yu, the last general is ashamed, he lost his troops and failed to break through the enemy camp, please punish the general!"
The disciples in charge of the main attack were stained with blood through their leather armor.
Xiang Yu looked at the disciple with a bit of murderous aura in his eyes, and nodded noncommittally.
"It's okay, let's go down and rest today, and tomorrow morning, continue to attack!"
……
Maudun Battalion.
The eyes of the king of the right valley are red, in this battle, most of the warriors under his command were killed and wounded, and the losses were serious, and they were already injured.
"Your Majesty, I am glad that I did not disgrace my life—"
The voice of the king of the right valley was a little hoarse.
Maudun nodded.
"Thank you for your hard work, your performance today, this list is in your eyes, and you will be rewarded in the future!"
In this battle, the king of Yougu Li personally commanded, and watched his loyal soldiers rush forward like death, and then fell under the butcher's knife of the Tuyu tribe, and even damaged his eldest son.
He was in a heavy mood and had no intention of speaking, so he bowed silently and bowed, and then stepped aside.
He wanted nothing more than tomorrow, and he didn't want to force his tribe to die again!
Mao Dunshan knew that he was not happy in his heart, and he didn't care about his faux pas, but looked at King Zuo Guli, who walked in quickly with the letter.
"But the news of the Right Virtuous King? Now, where has the Qin army been? ”
"King Qiqi, the Qin army has arrived a hundred miles away, and one day later, you can reach here, but, it's just ......"
When King Zuogu Li said this, his tone couldn't help but be a little hesitant.
Mao Dun's heart suddenly groaned, and he stepped forward, snatched the letter in the hand of King Zuogu Li, unfolded it, and immediately kicked over several cases in front of him, and scolded angrily.
"The Qin people are hateful, they actually took advantage of the fire to rob! Now, where is Ben Shan going to get them so many cattle, sheep and horses! ”
The king of the right valley also counted on the reinforcements of the Qin people to come over and rescue his tribe from the sea of suffering, and at this time, seeing his own Shan Yu suddenly jumping like thunder, he couldn't help but have an ominous premonition in his heart.
stepped forward to pick up the letter that was thrown by Mao Dun on several cases, and after reading it, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
jumped and followed his own Shan Yu and scolded the Qin people for being shameless.
The reinforcements of the Qin Dynasty arrived, and they saw that they could join the battlefield, but they suddenly proposed to ask the Xiongnu to provide 100,000 cattle, horses and sheep each, saying that they were coming from afar, and it was inconvenient to transport grain and grass, so they needed these things as military food.
Bullshit military rations!
What kind of appetite needs 100,000 cows, horses and sheep each?
I'm not afraid of breaking my belly!
Finally waited until his own Shan Yu stopped roaring, and then King Zuogu Li said carefully.
"They say they can't go to war until what they need arrives......"
Morton: !!!!!
Where is Lao Tzu going to get 100,000 heads for them!
But the situation is stronger than people, and he almost gritted his teeth.
"Give!"
At this point, he had red eyes and gasped for breath, almost word for word.
"Tell them that Ben Dan needs to be raised, and that they can give them three for the time being—no, give them fifty thousand head first, but they must go to war immediately!"
Speaking of which, Maudun is like a crazy gambler.
"If not, Ben Danyu will not fight, immediately lead the troops, turn around into Bai Daochuan, and drag them to die together!"
Baidaochuan is the most important passage on Yinshan Mountain, which was originally nameless, but because there are white rocks along the way, it gradually got the name of Baidaochuan.
This road is the most important passage connecting Daqin and the Xiongnu.
Historically, the grassland peoples have taken this route when they have gone south several times.
King Liking of the Left Valley and King Liking of the Right Valley both understood that he was not joking, and he probably really had a plan to bring disaster to the east.
Once his family is single, abandoning the old and weak, women and children, regardless of it, rushing into Baidaochuan and breaking into Daqin's realm, it will also be a disaster for Daqin.
But in the same way, for the Huns, it was a disaster.
It may even be a catastrophe!
King Zuo Gu couldn't help but take a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
"Minister, let's go down and make arrangements!"
100,000 head of cattle, sheep and horses, if it was in the heyday of the Xiongnu, it could barely make up, but at this time, it was really impossible to sell him.
Even the 50,000 heads mentioned by Mao Dun were almost an impossible task for the Huns at this time. He needs to put this task on the major tribes immediately.
But at this stage of the war, the major tribes are already very difficult.
This order, the majority of the people, mourning all over the field.
But he could only grit his teeth and give a death order!
I only hope that the Qin people can keep their promises.
……
The next day, as soon as it was dawn, the shouts of killing began again.
After a busy night, King Zuo Gu Li, who barely had time to blink, had to be strong again to face wave after wave of attacks from the Tuyu tribe.
The only thing that made them happy was that the Yu leader of the Tuyu tribe didn't know what was wrong, and he didn't even go into battle in person for the past two days, otherwise, he really didn't know how long he could stop that Yu leader with the low morale on his side now......
Just when Xiang Yu and Mao Dun were in full swing, Zhao Ying had already packed his luggage, bid farewell to the First Emperor, and got into the carriage heading south.
This trip.
In addition to the original men and horses in the General's Mansion, there were also 3,000 Great Qin Janissaries personally sent by the First Emperor.
