Chapter 315 Escape from the Royal City

Canglang Camp burned the food and grass that the Wusun army had accumulated in Mengcheng, and then 30,000 cavalry continued to go northwest. At the same time, they released carrier pigeons and notified Jia Xu, who was in Yumen Pass, about the current situation.

Thirty thousand iron cavalry were like a whirlwind on the grassland. The Kucha guide who was following Lu Bu showed a very excited expression, but there was a hint of fear in this excitement. When he thought of the Northern Army slaughtering surrendered soldiers without any mercy, he felt cold. After he returned, he must make every effort to urge the king to repair it with the Han Dynasty! The guide thought in his heart. The identity of this guide is extraordinary. He is the younger brother of the King of Kucha and a prince who is highly respected in Kucha. This person is good at diplomacy and often travels between Kucha and Wusun to coordinate the relationship between the two countries. On that day, when the King of Kucha heard that the Northern Army needed a guide who was familiar with the situation of the Northern Army, he sent the younger brother to the Northern Army.

Just as Lu Bu led 30,000 cavalry straight to the Wusun Royal City, the 200,000 army in Wusun to the south had already been launched. The 200,000 army crossed the border early yesterday morning and launched a fierce attack on Wensu, the northern border town of Kucha. However, the Kucha army was prepared for it, and the Wusun army failed to succeed in the raid as expected. A raid quickly turned into a tough battle.

Although Kucha was prepared for a long time, its military strength was far inferior to Wusun. They could not hold on for long under the fierce attack of Wusun army. Everyone's hope was placed on the Northern Army.

Wusun Palace.

"King, our army launched an attack on Wensu early yesterday morning, but the Kucha people were prepared for it. Our army's raid plan failed and is now attacking Kucha!" A general reported to the King of Wusun.

King Wusun sat on the throne, with the favorite concubine Qinna sitting next to him. Qinna was wearing a facial scarf, adding to the mysterious temptation to the angering charm.

The Wusun King frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "How did the Kucha people know our plans?"

Qinna asked the general, "General Ke Ri, can the Han Dynasty envoy still be in the inn?"

"Our people have been monitoring them, and they have not made any changes." The general named Ke Ri replied with certainty. He didn't know where his tricks were the opponent of the Iron Guard of the North Army. The Iron Guard of the North Army had no idea how much confidential information was reconnaissed about Wusun.

Qinna frowned slightly and thought to herself that she looked very charming. Not only King Wusun, but also the ministers in the hall showed a dazed look.

Qin Na raised her head and saw the expressions of everyone, she couldn't help but smile proudly. Everyone's hearts jumped. The ministers were afraid that their expressions would be rude, so they hurriedly lowered their heads. The King of Wusun glanced at the coquettish Qin Na, probably thinking of the bed in his heart.

"King, I think it may be that General Hassan's actions were discovered by the Kucha people. After all, it is too difficult for the 200,000 army to be completely avoided!"

King Wusun nodded, and Qinna continued: "The Wusun army has 200,000, and is well-equipped and well-trained. The only 50,000 defenders who can gather in Wensu in Kucha, are inferior to us in training equipment. Even if it is a strong attack, our army will definitely be able to take Wensu within half a month!" The countries in the Western Regions do not have a complete city wall defense system, so siege battles generally do not take several months like the Central Plains.

The King of Wusun showed a proud look, and he believed that his army could easily capture Wensu.

"King, now our army has begun to attack Wensu, we should immediately detain the envoys of the Han Dynasty!" Qinna's eyes flashed with cold light, and she looked like a beautiful beautiful snake at this time.

King Wusun had wanted to do this for a long time, but Qinna kept saying to him, "You can't break up with the Han people for the time being." That's why he resisted the idea of ​​arresting Sima Yi and his group and being imprisoned.

"Okay! Ke Ri, immediately capture the envoys of the Han Dynasty for me!" King Wusun ordered with some excitement.

"King, never do it!" An old minister with gray beard came out and advised. This old minister said no blame. He has served two generations of kings. He is good at internal affairs and diplomacy, honest and honest, and has a lofty prestige in Wusun. One thing that must be mentioned is that this no responsibility is to marry him back then...

The descendants of Princess Jieyou of Wusun, perhaps influenced by this story, have always longed for the intimacy of the distant Han Dynasty. He strongly advocated peace in the relationship between Wusun and Han Dynasty. Not long ago, when he heard that the envoy of the Han Dynasty came to Wusun, he strongly asked the King of Wusun to take this opportunity to restore his previous relationship with the Han Dynasty. When he heard that the King of Wusun had accepted the mediation of the Han Dynasty, he rarely showed joy and laughed out loud.

After attending the meeting today, he realized that his king had been playing tricks. His king had never accepted the mediation of the Han Dynasty. Everything he did was nothing more than to deceive the Han Dynasty. However, the matter was over, and he didn't want to say anything else. But he never expected that his king would actually detain the Han envoy, which was tantamount to declaring war on the Han Dynasty! He felt that he could not sit idly by, so he resolutely stepped out to dissuade the Han Dynasty. He could not let the war ignite between the Han Dynasty and the Wusun. He did not want to see the people of the Han Dynasty suffer, nor did he want to see the people of the Wusun being hurt by the war.

Seeing that he was not scolding him, King Wusun was not surprised. He frowned and said unhappily: "What's wrong?"

"King, the Han envoy came to peace. How could we detain the Han envoy for no reason?" Don't blame him and said anxiously.

The King of Wusun was about to scold him, but Qin Na smiled and said, "Don't blame the old prime minister for saying this is wrong. The Han envoy came just to block my Wusun's great cause."

Don’t blame me for looking at the coquettish Qinna in disgust and said coldly: “If the Han Dynasty sends troops to attack, how should we deal with it?”

Qinna smiled charmingly and said, "Don't blame the old minister. You are really old. Do you even know the situation of the Han Dynasty at this time?"

Don't blame me for a cold snorting, "I know the situation of the Han Dynasty better than you. Although the Han Dynasty is in civil strife now, the envoys sent by the envoy represent the orthodox. This Han army is invincible in fighting south and north, and even the fierce nomadic peoples Wuwan, Xiongnu, Xianbei, and Qiang people surrender at their feet. According to the historical style of this Han army, they will never give up!"

Qinna's face changed, and a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

The King of Wusun suddenly slapped the throne, stood up, and said angrily: "Enough! Don't blame me, you openly speak for the Han Dynasty in my Wusun Palace. Are you an official of the Han Dynasty or the Prime Minister of my Wusun?"

Don’t blame me and quickly said, “Old minister is of course the Prime Minister Wusun. The purpose of the old minister said this is to not want me, Wusun, to form a great enemy like the Han Dynasty for the sake of small profits!”

The King of Wusun snorted coldly, "I don't think the Han Dynasty is such a powerful enemy! Don't say that the Han Dynasty is powerless to look west now, even if he really sent troops, my Wusun warriors will be able to kill the Han army without leaving any armor!"

"King!..." Don't blame him for his anxious expression, and want to persuade him again.

The King of Wusun waved his hand impatiently and shouted, "Come here, please go down and rest!"

Two personal soldiers from the palace entered the palace and made a gesture of inviting others, which was quite polite.

Don’t blame the King of Wusun for not listening to the advice, he couldn’t help but sigh and turned around and walked out of the palace. At this time, he seemed particularly old. Many of the ministers in the palace showed gloating expressions, and of course some people showed sympathy.

The objection was suppressed, and the King of Wusun immediately ordered: "Ke Ri, immediately lead troops to capture Han envoy!" "Yes." Ke Ri immediately left the palace.

King Wusun narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: I want to take out the heart of the Han envoy and drink, and I want to return the head of the Han envoy to the Han Dynasty!

Ke Ri hurried to the inn with hundreds of people. Hundreds of people rushed into the inn with weapons, but as soon as they entered the inn, they found that the inn was strangely quiet.

Ke Ri immediately took people to the courtyard where Sima Yi and the others lived.

The scene in the courtyard shocked Ke Ri. He saw fifty or sixty corpses neatly placed in the small courtyard, a considerable number of which were sent to secretly monitor Sima Yi and his group.

"Search it for me!"

The soldiers searched around the yard, but there was no one in sight. They only found a letter in the big house opposite the yard. The soldiers quickly handed the letter to Ke Ri.

Ke Ri picked up the letter and took a look...

,Which is written in Wusun. When I continue reading, Ke Ri couldn't help but feel a drop of cold sweat overflowing on his forehead. The content of the letter was only one sentence, "The King of Wusun is betrayal, and my great Han Tianjun will definitely take his head."

"Where are them?" Ke Ri roared.

An officer replied: "No one was found, they seemed to have disappeared!" A wave of fear arose in the officer's heart for no reason.

"Chasing! I don't believe they can run away!"

"But where to chase?" the officer asked helplessly.

"Idiot, won't you send someone to ask the residents along the street?" "Yes." The officer hurried out of the inn with some people.

Ke Ri glanced at the letter again and frowned.

At the same time, Sima Yi and his group had already left the Wusun Royal City, and they had now arrived in a valley more than ten miles east of the Wusun Royal City.

Tents have been set up in the woods of the valley, and more than a dozen guards are responsible for the warning at the height of the valley. Smoke is rising and they are cooking.

"At this moment, the Wusun Royal City is probably in chaos!" Jiang Tai said with a smile.

Sima Yi smiled, "Their suffering is still behind!"

"Sir, why are we here?" Jiang Tai asked at the surrounding environment. This question had been in his heart for a long time.

Sima Yi smiled and said, "The army led by General Lu Bu will definitely raid the royal city of Wusun, and this is their must-pass place."

Jiang Tai finally understood and said, "Oh, sir, I want to wait for General Lu Bu's army here."

Sima Yi nodded and said, "That's right. We are now in the heart of the Wusun Kingdom. If we don't join the army, we will probably be difficult to escape from Wusun."
