Chapter 218: Attacking the Heart

On the battlefield, as Liu Chan shouted loudly, the Qingqiang cavalry, who were originally entangled with the army and separated between the Red Star Army and Li Hui and Zhang Yi's army, gradually gave up resistance when they saw that the Qingqiang King was captured.

The attitude of the Qingqiang clan towards the king is wonderful in the eyes of the Han people.

Internally, Qingqiang men who dare to challenge the throne are regarded as warriors, and even if they fail to challenge and die, their families and clans will not be implicated.

But when the whole clan is external, the Qingqiang king has absolute authority, and the warriors of any tribe will obey orders unconditionally, and regard their safety as the top priority.

If the king of Qingqiang is killed or captured in battle, and the people of your tribe run back on their own...... Unless you kill these people on your own initiative, you will be attacked by other tribes.

And this is also an important reason why the Qingqiang clan is not afraid of death in battle.

Now that the Qingqiang King has been captured, the remnants of the Qingqiang cavalry have quickly lost the will to fight, and they have no intention of fleeing.

After this battle, the main force of the Yongjia in Yizhou County, and the Qingqiang rescue troops moved by Meng Shu, were decided.

More than 3,000 soldiers and more than 2,000 prisoners of war were collected.

Of the more than 13,000 soldiers he brought, more than 1,200 have been killed in battle, but about 20 or 30 percent of them have died of incurable diseases caused by factors such as unadaptation.

As for the Jiajia army, the losses were relatively heavy, and when the army was raised, a total of nearly 3,000 soldiers were raised, and most of them had been killed and wounded so far in the battle, and there were only more than 700 people left.

……

After the army returned to Shiwei County.

"Recovered in Kunze, so that the prince's enemy still needs to send troops to rescue, this is really a crime." Li Hui and his son Li Yi knelt on the ground and paused, "Please punish the prince." ”

After telling in detail about their battle, Li Hui took the initiative to plead guilty.

Liu Chan stepped forward to help Li Hui, who was covered in blood and wounded in many places, and said softly: "De'ang successfully lobbied the family to raise troops to help the orphans, and he was trapped in a dead place and fought to the death, and successively used tactics to lead to the defeat of the Yongjia and Qingqiang. Loyalty and courage can be learned, wisdom and courage are commendable, what is the crime? Besides, it is not your fault to be trapped in Kunze.

"Not only is he innocent, but De'ang is not chaotic in the face of danger, wise and brave, but he is a talent worthy of great use, and after the lonely war, he became his cousin and asked for a reward for De'ang's official value."

Li Hui's heart was moved, and he leaned over again: "Prince Xie." ”

Ji Xi was ashamed, and at this time he stepped forward and bowed his hand: "Ji Xi visited the prince, this matter was all caused by my impulse, and it was almost the prince's fault." The prince should punish me for my sin. ”

Liu Chan said: "The head of the family is in Yizhou County, far away from Chengdu, and he has never met his father before, but he refuses to be in the same stream with Yonghong and others. Now he has done his best to help the family, and the head of the family is a loyal man, and he is very relieved.

"Even if he didn't listen to the dissuasion and attacked Dianchi without authorization, it was not appropriate to attack Dianchi without permission, but the head of the family was not alone at that time, and he could not talk about violating military orders. The family army has suffered heavy losses, how can Lone be punished again? ”

He was silent and bowed to the ground.

"The head of the family raised troops to help, and he should have been a partial general. But this time, there is indeed impulsiveness and recklessness, and now the head of the family is temporarily ordered to be the Sima of the other department, and continue to lead the people and horses of the headquarters to fight with the army, and if he can make meritorious contributions, he will be rewarded. ”

"Xi, thank you Prince." He is very satisfied with this result.

Liu Chan looked at Zhang Yi again: "Bo Gong is improvised, anticipating that the enemy will be the first, and divide the troops in Kunzexi Mountain in advance, so that the main force of the Yongjia family can be completely annihilated." Although Yonghong escaped, it was also a great achievement, and it was rewarded for meritorious deeds after the war. ”

Zhang Yi clenched his fists in thanks.

After that, Liu Chan ordered people to take proper care of the wounded soldiers, buy livestock in the three counties and slaughter them, hold a celebration banquet, and reward the soldiers of the whole army.

It's just that the food here is expensive, and there is no spare energy to make wine, and the wine stored by the Huo family is far from enough, and the soldiers have a little regret.

However, Liu Chan, who was not strong enough to drink, was secretly glad about this, and made a speech at the banquet to boost morale, and toasted the whole army with water instead of wine, pushing the atmosphere of the celebration banquet to a climax.

Then he took the military doctor and the people who were proficient in the Qingqiang dialect to the county capital where the Qingqiang king was imprisoned.

Huobuori looked a little embarrassed at this time, his hands were tied upside down, and his feet were tied strongly.

When Liu Chan entered the door, he was trying to turn his hands around his lower body and turn in front of him, but the soldiers who had already guarded against this were tied to a very high position, and not only did he not succeed, but he also happened to fall at Liu Chan and gnaw mud......

"Why did King Qingqiang make this great gift?"

The corners of the family's mouth twitched, but they didn't translate this sentence.

Liu Chan helped him to sit up, and saw that the wound on his side rib was still slowly oozing blood, and motioned for the military doctor to come forward and bandage him.

When Huo Buori saw that the military doctor was about to sprinkle the powder on his wound, he immediately struggled, shouting something that Liu Chan did not understand.

"What did he say?"

The family hesitated for a moment and omitted some radical language: "He said that his skills are not as good as others, and he will kill if he wants to, but he is also a warrior, why should he torture and humiliate him in this way." ”

Liu Chan shook his head helplessly: "Tell him not to move if you don't want to die of blood loss, this is healing injuries." ”

After the translation, Huo Buuri was indeed much more honest, but he still stared at the military doctor vigilantly.

After all, this method of healing injuries is very different from the witch doctors in his clan, and he can't trust it, and he doesn't recite a mantra before treating injuries, so it's unprofessional at first glance.

It's just that after the powder was sprinkled, they endured the initial severe pain, but there was a special cooling feeling, which gradually suppressed the hot pain, but it was much more effective than the chewing herb paste they were used to.

After the bandage, Huo Buori found that Liu Chan really sent someone to treat his injuries, and he calmed down a lot.

He did not show much hostility towards the teenager who captured him by force.

Qingqiang respects the strong, even the enemy.

After treating the injury, Liu Chan sat cross-legged across from him, looking up and down at the Qingqiang King, who had been cut out of a big hole by his own spear, but did not say a word, and said, "What is your name?" ”

"Fire Buyori."

Finding that the other party's attitude didn't seem to be so intense, Liu Chan smiled and said: "Gu is the crown prince of Hanzhong, and Liu Chan is the heir of Liu Chan." How about you lead Qingqiang to attach to Lone, make your official to be alone, and protect your people? ”

For people like Fire Buyori, there is no point in beating around the bush, it is better to go straight.

Huo Buori sneered, although he respected the strong, it did not mean that he had to surrender, let alone join the clan: "First help you pacify Nanzhong, and then hand over the treasures of cattle and horses every year, let you squeeze them?" If it weren't for the oppression and persecution of the Han people, how would we retreat here! ”

Liu Chan was silent for a moment when he heard this, and sighed: "In those years, traitors were in charge, and the beasts and beasts between the palace and majesty were eaten, so much so that you Qingqiang people were suffering. But when the rebellion came first, the imperial court naturally had to send troops to quell the rebellion. ”

The imperial court at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty really didn't do anything, but his identity was here, so he couldn't say "Yes, my relatives and emperors are all faint kings, and you are the righteous resistance of the oppressed", right?

Huo Buori stiffened his neck and wanted to say something more, Liu Chan waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about the past, just look at the present." Come to Nanzhong alone, no matter Hanyi, have you ever seen the people being looted and bullied? Have you ever been as Meng Shu said, what kind of black dog agate is sought? ”

In the past, those things about Chen Sesame and rotten grain were not clear at all, the positions of the two sides were different, and there was no right or wrong in these things, and if they continued, they could only intensify the contradictions and confrontations, so Liu Chan immediately changed the topic.

Huobuori was stunned for a moment, and did not speak for a while.

Liu Chan said again: "Like that Yonghong generation, the lonely eye is like a guinea dog's ear, and it can be destroyed with his hands." You are a good son, and you want to perish with it? ”

Huo Bu Yuli was still a little unconvinced, and said in a low voice: "If it weren't for the fact that the southern parts of Yueyun County could not be contacted, the outcome would not have been known. ”

But apparently there is no confidence in what he said.

Liu Chan was not annoyed, and said with a smile: "How the victory or defeat is, you can wait and see." This battle can be won alone, and I didn't plan to borrow your Qingqiang's power.

"If Qingqiang is obedient, he will be treated equally. In the future, I will make meritorious contributions to the battle with the orphans, so that your people can live a rich and prosperous life. Or obsessive, let them bleed to death...... You think about it slowly. ”

After saying that, Liu Chan left the silent Huo Buori and walked out.

First of all, let him recognize the huge difference in strength, and then he can surrender, this matter is not urgent.

And from Huobuori's words, Liu Chan keenly noticed that he said that he could not contact Qingqiang in the south of Yueyun County......

Looking up at the starry sky, a smile appeared at the corner of Liu Chan's mouth, and it seemed that Uncle Zhuge had also exerted his strength.
