Chapter Twenty-Four: Rescuing Humuchun
?
The corners of Cardin's mouth pulled up slightly, and said to Hu Muchun: "I'm not sure if I'm going to die, but what is certain is that you are definitely going to die!" ”
Humuchun stared at the 'woman' who had been pressed to the ground by a group of soldiers not far away, and his clothes were torn, he trembled all over, and two lines of painful tears slipped down the corners of his eyes to his chin, and then gathered together, "let's da, da" and fell to the ground.
"Prince!" The 'woman' who was pressed to the ground by the soldiers suddenly let out a terrible scream and shouted to Humuchun: "I can't 'serve' you anymore, I will still be your 'woman' in the next life!" ”
As soon as the woman's shout ended, one of the soldiers who tore her clothes shouted: "She killed herself!" ”
The soldiers walked away from the 'female' person, and what appeared in Humuchun's sight was a 'female' corpse with the upper body ** and the lower body clothes torn into pieces of cloth.
"No!" Humuchun let out a scream and passed out on the ground.
Cardin looked coldly at Hu Muchun, who had fainted on the ground, and said to the soldiers beside him: "Cut down all the people in the second prince's tent!" The second prince will stay for the time being, and I will dedicate him to Da Shan Yu together with Di Yu! ”
Tied to a stake, Di Ba watched as Cardin abused the people in Humuchun's tent, and when Humuchun's sons and daughters were tied up and beheaded by the soldiers, she closed her eyes tightly, and two lines of tears slipped down her cheeks.
The camp of the Fox Wolf King was full of crying, and this crying sound spread far away, reaching the ears of Xiang Ye, who was only three or four miles away from here.
Hearing the crying, Xiang Ye whispered to the guards beside him: "You listen to those cries, if I guess correctly, they must have come from the Fox Wolf King's camp." Something is going on there, we have to hurry over, if Di Yan is there, we will definitely be in danger. ”
The guards answered, followed behind Xiang Ye and quietly 'touched' the Fox Wolf King's camp.
When they 'touched' the Fox Wolf King's camp, there was a faint smell of blood wafting from the camp. From time to time, a few Huns dragged out a few corpses from the camp and buried them in a nearby pit at night.
Xiang Ye lay on the ground and said to the guards behind him: "Let's sneak into the camp and see if we can find Di Yao, if she is really in danger, rescue her and retreat quickly!" ”
The guards lay beside Xiang Ye, nodded, followed behind Xiang Ye, and quietly 'touched' towards the Fox Wolf King's camp.
They were all wearing the clothes and armor of the Huns, and the war horses were also left three or four miles away, and after 'touching' into the camp, as long as they formed a group of patrol soldiers in the city, they should be able to 'cover' and 'mix' through.
Taking advantage of the time when the Huns discarded the corpses, Xiang Ye and the others 'touched' the edge of the camp and walked into the camp in a line.
As soon as they entered the camp, they saw a man tied to a stake in the distance. Xiang Ye took a closer look and felt that the figure of the person who was tied up was very familiar, so he waved his hand to the guards and led them towards the stake.
When he was still more than ten steps away from the stake, Xiang Ye saw clearly that it was none other than Di Yu who was tied to it.
He was stunned for a moment, looked around, walked quickly to Di Yao, and whispered to her, "We are here to save you, hurry up and follow us!" ”
Dick was looking down and closing her eyes when she heard someone talking to her and looked up.
When he saw Xiang Ye standing in front of her wearing a Hun suit and armor, he couldn't help but move, and his lips trembled and said to him: "Go quickly, save the second prince!" There is still hope! ”
"Where is the second prince?" Hearing that there was still hope, Xiang Ye's eyes lit up and he asked Di Yao.
"He's being held in the third tent over there, you go and save him first, and then come and save me after you get rid of him!" Di Yu looked towards the left side of the camp and said to Xiang Ye: "Be fast, you must be fast, it's too late!" ”
Xiang Ye nodded, waved to the guards and whispered, "Let's go save the second prince first!" ”
When he decided to save the second prince, Xiang Ye didn't know that staying here for a while longer would be a little more dangerous, but with a usable Xiongnu force in front of him, he couldn't just leave so easily, as long as he could absorb the forces of the Fox Wolf King, the chances of winning the war between Great Xia and the Xiongnu would be a few points higher.
Xiang Ye approached the tent where Hu Muchun was being held with seven guards, and from a distance he heard a person crying from inside the tent.
"Who?" When Xiang Ye and the others walked four or five steps away from the tent, the Hun soldiers guarding outside the tent shouted at them in Xiongnu language.
Xiang Ye didn't understand the Xiongnu language, so he had to smile at the two Hun soldiers and take two steps closer.
Seeing that Xiang Ye didn't answer, the two Hun soldiers hurriedly 'drawn' their scimitars and glared at him vigilantly.
Just as the two Hun soldiers were 'drawing' their knives, Xiang Ye suddenly moved, he 'draws' the long sword on his waist and slashed towards the throats of the two Hun soldiers.
When the two Hun soldiers saw him 'draw' their swords, they just reacted that someone had robbed the camp, and they were about to scream, when Xiang Ye's long sword had already been cut from their throats.
"Carry the body into the tent, and leave two people standing at the 'door'!" After killing the Huns, Xiang Ye commanded the guards behind him.
The two guards hurriedly stepped forward and dragged the corpse into the tent, and then walked out of the tent and stood at the 'door', while the others followed Xiang Ye into the tent.
After entering the account, Xiang Ye saw a man who was beating his 'chest' in pain. This man looked to be twenty-seven or eighteen years old, and because of his closed eyes and wailing, coupled with the dim light in the tent, Xiang Ye couldn't see his face clearly.
"May I ask if Your Excellency is the second prince of the Fox Wolf King?" After entering the account, Xiang Ye knew that he couldn't delay here, so he arched his hand to Hu Muchun and asked in a low voice.
Humuchun only cried and didn't notice that anyone had entered the tent. Perhaps he already knew that someone had entered the tent, but he didn't bother to ask who it was.
Hearing someone ask him if he was the second prince, Humu Juncai raised his head, and what he saw was an unfamiliar face. In the camp of the Fox Wolf King, although the population is also tens of thousands, Humuchun can also tell which are the people in the camp and which are strangers.
As soon as he looked at Xiang Ye, he knew that the people in front of him were not inside the camp, but lurking in from the outside.
"Who are you?" Hu Muchun wiped his tears and asked Xiang Ye.
"It doesn't matter who we are, we came to save you on the orders of Di Juji!" Xiang Ye muttered behind him, and the two guards hurriedly stepped forward to help Hu Muchun untie the ropes tied to his body and help him up.
"Let's go!" After the guards set up Hu Muchun, Xiang Ye waved to them, turned around and was about to walk out of the tent.
"Wait!" Before Xiang Ye could get out of the camp, Hu Muchun stopped him in a whisper and said to him: "Cardin killed my wife and children, I must seek revenge on him, otherwise I will never leave the camp!" ”
Xiang Ye shook his head and said to Hu Mu Chen: "We are just a few people, we are not their opponents at all, it is better to leave first, and it is not too late to take revenge when we find an opportunity in the future!" ”
"No!" Hu Muchun wiped the tears that were still hanging on his face and said to Xiang Ye: "As long as we kill Cardin, the soldiers and horses in the entire camp will have to obey my command, and I will be the new fox wolf king!" ”
"I'm rubbing, and this rule?" Xiang Ye looked at Hu Muchun in amazement, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the rules for the Huns to choose the king were also simpler, as long as the royal family killed the previous king, he could be the king logically. If this rule spreads to the Central Plains, I am afraid that the Central Plains will be 'chaotic' for a while.
"The king's tent must be heavily guarded, what should we do?" Although he was very dissatisfied with the Xiongnu's succession to the throne, Xiang Ye was still 'tempted' and 'confused' by being able to get the support of the Fox Wolf King's forces, and asked Hu Muchun in a low voice.
Hu Muchun's eyes narrowed slightly, and said to Xiang Ye: "I changed into the clothes of a soldier, you escorted me close to the king's tent, and suddenly killed them when they were unprepared, and then I announced that I would inherit the throne and kill all Cardin's people, and this camp will be mine from now on!" ”
"Okay, we'll help you!" Xiang Ye nodded, and said to the guard beside him: "Go to two people, go to Di Juci's side to protect him, I will take the others to kill Cardin, you must be careful, understand?" ”
"Understood!" The guards answered, and immediately two men turned and walked out of the tent towards the stake that bound Dick.
With the help of the guards brought by Xiang Ye, Hu Muchun changed into the clothes of the corpses of the Hun soldiers on the ground, and walked towards the Fox Wolf King's tent between Xiang Ye and the others.
On the way, they also met several groups of Hun patrols, and it stands to reason that each of them had blood stains left by the previous battles with the Hun cavalry and Yanyun assassins, but Cardin had just killed people in the camp, and the soldiers who carried the corpses must have blood stains on their bodies, so no one stepped forward to interrogate them.
When he arrived near the fox wolf king's tent, Xiang Ye found that Cardin was really cunning, and outside the king's tent, more than 100 Hun soldiers patrolled back and forth, guarding the safety of the king's tent at all times.
Seeing the king's tent, Humuchun's eyes 'shot' with hatred. But after all, he was still a prince, and he wouldn't be so irrational in doing things, he looked at the five guards brought by Xiang Ye and whispered: "The defense of him is strict, or let's go, and we will have the opportunity to kill him again in the future!" ”
"It's all here, what are you going?" The corners of Xiang Ye's mouth tugged slightly, and he said to Hu Muchun: "There are no guards in the place where you are being held, I think someone will soon find out, I am afraid it will not be easy for us to leave at this time, instead of being surrounded and beaten, it is better to fight!" ”
After that, he said to the guards behind him: "Brothers, there are only six of us, are you afraid?" ”
The guards replied in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, we will fight wherever the king is pointing!" ”
"The King?" Hearing the guards call Xiang Ye the king, Hu Muchun was stunned and stared at Xiang Ye for a while before he asked hesitantly: "I heard that Xiang Ye, the monarch of the Xia Kingdom, has always been bold and likes to go deep alone, you won't be Xiang Ye, the monarch of the Xia Kingdom, right?" ”~
