Chapter 15 Hetao Walnut
The road between Yin Seoul and Lingwu was galloping with a wide four-wheeled carriage all day long.
When the carriage arrives in Lingwu, someone will unload the tired horse, put the full and resting horse on, and stop the horse without resting. Try to transport and drink the mountains of materials in Seoul as quickly as possible.
The family of the lord of Yin Seoul was indeed rich, and nine hundred trucks were pulled for half a month. In Yin Seoul, there were mountains of weapons, grain and wealth looted by the Han army, and women who were entangled like sheep.
Yun Xiao was so worried now that he could not finish so many good things even if he gave them half a month. More than 3,000 Xiong girls who had robbed were forced to hike towards Lingwu City because they had no capacity to carry them. Cangxiong brought two hundred village warriors to escort them, and Gu'er didn't carry thirty kilograms of grain at a quick speed. This was her food. The people who managed them said that they had to live with these thirty kilograms of grain in Lingwu to spend this winter.
She could choose not to carry it, but she would not blame others when she was hungry. Every sister tried to carry more food, but the result was that they kept slipping on the side of the road. The clever Guer didn't quickly get the fast wooden board, and found a rope to put the food on it and drag it away. This method quickly became popular among the girls, so the wooden board was not enough.
On weekdays, the roads that are rarely visited have become very lively now. The horses in the convoy are pulling things from Seoul to Lingwu.
Manniu and Xiaobai are qualified guards, and Batu led his tribesmen to wait here. Yun Xiao took care of their national sentiment and did not allow them to participate in the plunder of the Huns. Some incomplete corpses were hung on the wall of the mount. They were all good things done by Manniu and Xiaobai. They never understood the hard work of collectors.
There are more than 5,000 defenders in Lingwu. However, no one of them dares to make the money now. Since they appreciated the unique skills of Manniu tearing down the living people, this idea has been completely erased in their minds.
Yun Xiao felt sensitively that there was not much time left for him. Except for sending 200 people out to loot every day, all other transportation capacity was used to transport supplies. The horse was released for more than 200 miles, and as long as there was a situation, Yun Xiao would burn the city and escape without hesitation.
The Huns in Yin Seoul have been identified, and as long as they are not old, weak, sick and disabled, they are all captured. Selling slaves is also a good income. In the eyes of Longyou soldiers, they are all good money to walk.
Especially the women that the Marquis doesn't want, although they are not bad girls, there are also beautiful ones that can be sold at a good price.
Nacha opened his eyes. He didn't know how long he had slept. It was a tent. A Hun-style tent. Weapons were hung on the felt cloth, bows, arrows and dried water pouches. A fire was set on the ground, and a crucible was placed on the rack supported by three wood. There was something boiling inside. It was very fragrant and tempting. On the side of the crucible, several Huns in leather armor sat, and it seemed that they were waiting for the meal.
"Where is this?" Nacha sat upright and looked at the Hun men.
"You are awake. Wusun gave him a bowl of broth and let him drink it to see the Great Shanyu." A strong man looked back at Nacha and said.
"Brother Rukali is you?" Yan Hesitant Backlight Nacha didn't see it very clearly. But judging from his voice, he was a distant cousin.
"Ha, my cousin. You still remember my voice. We haven't met for six or seven years. Why did you look like this? I'll drink the broth and Da Shanyu wants to see you."
Rukali opened his big mouth that was missing a front teeth and said with a smile to Nacha.
"How are my brothers?" Nacha took the broth and said while drinking.
"The five remaining people are dead. The Great Chanyu wants to ask you about Yin Seoul. What did you do? He was actually hid in such a strong city by a group of Han people. Don't anger the Great Chanyu when you speak for a while. He is in a bad mood recently. If the Great Chanyu gets angry, no one can save you. The Lord of Yin Seoul and his thousands of riders are still hanging on the flagpole."
Nacha silently drank the broth, as the person sent by the Great Chanyu to monitor the Lord of Yin Seoul. He knew that the Great Chanyu attached importance to Yin Seoul, but he now had more important things to report to the Great Chanyu.
"What? You said the Han people trained an elite cavalry and defeated your team under the frontal assault?"
Junchen Shanyu looked at Nacha who was kneeling on the side in disbelief.
"Yes, the Han cavalry of the Great Shanyu team is very elite, and the cavalry is not below our headquarters cavalry. I only fought with them for one round and was defeated."
Nacha's head was pressed down very low, and his poor record made him unable to raise his head. Since he became sensible, he had never heard of any Hun cavalry being defeated by Han cavalry. He never expected that he would become this disgraceful first.
Junchen Shanyu threw away the lamb legs in his hand and his eyes were rumbling.
The Han people actually had cavalry with excellent riding and shooting. This news was incredible. In the past two days, I have received news that the tribes in the Helan Mountain area west of Hetao were invaded by a group of Han people. The methods of these people were very cruel, and they almost followed the strategy of burning all the things they had.
Several weak tribes have been destroyed by them, and the morale of the western tribes in the army has begun to shake. Many elders asked them to lead their troops to rescue the western part, but there was also a lack of troops on the front line in the eastern part.
The cavalry of this cavalryman is confident that the combat power of those who can defeat them in the cavalry showdown must be not simple.
"How many cavalrymen were there?"
"I have seen more than 200, but there will definitely be more. There are about tens of thousands of Han troops attacking Yin Seoul. The Han family city closest to Yin Seoul is Lingwu City. From the time they can kill from Lingwu to Yin Han City overnight, I guess most of them are cavalry. Otherwise, it would not be so fast."
"Ten thousand cavalry." Junchen Shanyu took a breath, and suddenly ten thousand cavalry appeared behind him. This is not good news. Once these cavalry use Yin Seoul as a base to plunder the tribes at the foot of Helan Mountain, the western front will be completely corrupt, and the tribes at the foot of Helan Mountain will not agree.
If you just forcibly block it, those tribes might mutiny.
Moreover, these things plundered by the Han people were the most precious of the Huns, that is, women. In the bitter and cold places in the northern desert, productivity was very low. There were many women who died of difficult labor. Every ten babies born, five or six died of various disasters and diseases, and died before they became adults.
Women are very precious in the Huns, because one more woman will give birth to one more child. One more child will make the tribe become stronger and stronger. This is also why the Huns like to loot Han women when they go to the Han area to loot. Because the mortality rate of women on the grassland is too high, and the reproduction of races cannot be separated from women.
"The Great Shanyu, these Han cavalry were split into small groups to plunder our tribes. As I walked along the way, many tribes were burned to white land. Cattle and sheep were plundered and the population was slaughtered. They almost wanted to rob everything they encountered, from wealth, cattle and sheep to women.
They had a four-wheeled cart that could hold a lot of things. I saw a cart full of girls. If the Great Shanyu did not destroy them quickly, he would not belong to the Great Huns from Helan Mountain."
Nacha was obviously a little excited, and the tragic scenes along the way were vividly remembered. The corpses burned to charcoal and the tragic situations of being pecked by jackals and crows made him very ashamed. As a Hun man, it would be better to die than to be able to protect his tribe.
"If the Great Shanyu were allowed to continue to plunder Helan Mountain, the tribes there would be centrifugal with us, and at that time we might lose the entire Hetao.
Hetao is so important. It is a sharp sword hanging on the heads of the Han people..."
A sinister voice came from the corner of the tent, and the voice was sharp and harsh, saying that men did not look like men, saying that women did not look like women.
"You Chinese people like to say half of what they say, and say half of what they say, and say fart when they have things."
Seeing that the Great Chanyu was dissatisfied, the Zhongxing Yue hurried out of the dark corner and said, "The Great Chanyu, there are 400,000 Han troops stationed on the eastern front. If we want to fight all the way, we need to nibble one city and one city. Once we break through this line of defense, the loss of troops will be great.
The advantage of the Huns is maneuvering, not siege cities, rather than siegeing the city. It is better to travel west quietly. Only a part of the people were left to attack the east line, and the main force of the entire army attacked the west. Now the main force of the Han army is in the east, so we open a path from the west.
With so many Han troops gathered on the eastern front, the great Han must be like a walnut now. As long as it drills into the shell, there will be sweet flesh inside. As long as we open the hole on the western front, we will go south and head to Chang'an. At that time, let alone a Han princess, even the three thousand beauties in the Weiyang Palace will be owned by the Great Shanyu."
The words of Zhong Xingyue made Junchen Shanyu feel very happy. The Han people said it correctly. The advantage of the Hun cavalry is mobility. Since so many Han troops were concentrated on the eastern and central lines, the western front must be empty, so I ran to the western front overnight.
As long as the Western Front is opened a little, the 300,000 troops will rush straight to Chang'an. When the Han infantry rushed back slowly, I might have been drinking and watching singing and dancing in the Weiyang Palace.
The more Junchen Shanyu thought about it, the more he became, and immediately ordered: "The whole army gathered and ordered King Zuo Guli to lead 30,000 people to stay on the eastern front. The rest of the troops followed me and rushed straight to Shencheng. I want to see if the Han cavalry was as powerful as you said."
