This battle, which did not cost a single soldier but frightened the Hu people, immediately made the Chu army and the northwest soldiers' awe of Xue Poye reach its peak. They respected the ten inconspicuous cannons as if they were divine soldiers.
The defenders celebrated without hesitation. The Northwest Army even joined the Chu Army, talking and laughing. Many Northwest soldiers even danced the "Knife Dance" unique to the Northwest to add to the atmosphere.
For many years, the Chu people had not really killed the Hu people so happily.
In the early morning, the scouts were sent to report that the Hu people began to retreat, and tens of thousands of Hu cavalry retreated to the north in embarrassment.
Song Fei immediately asked for help, hoping to catch up with the army and deal a heavier blow to the Hu people.
In fact, Xue Poye also knew in his heart that the Hu people's retreat this time was definitely not to lure the enemy. It seemed that they had received the power of the cannon and saw the army garrisoned at Yangguan. They knew that they could not invade, so they had to retreat.
For the Hu people, retreating if they cannot win is their eternal tactical theory.
If he sent an army to pursue him, it should be able to give some deterrence to the Hu people. He nodded and said: "Okay, Commander Song...!" He was about to order Song Fei to lead his army to attack, but he was worried that Song Fei was eager to fight and would continue to pursue him.
, if this is the case, trouble will inevitably occur, so he said: "Order your troops and horses, and I will personally lead the army to catch up. At least you must know that the Hu people have really retreated."
Immediately, 30,000 cavalry were ordered, and under the leadership of Xue Poye, they pursued the north at night.
The morale of the Chu army was high, and they were all like wolves and tigers. They really looked forward to catching up with the Hu people and giving them a good kill.
Passing through the former camp of the Hu people, it was in a state of disarray and full of traces left by the Hu people's retreat. The pursuit led straight to the bank of the Daqierpao River. There had been a brutal battle here, and the corpses were everywhere.
There was no time to clean up, and countless corpses of Chu soldiers and Hu people were buried here. Although the wind and sand were huge and most of the corpses had been covered by the sand, there were still many corpses exposed, and the smell of blood in the air was extremely strong.
There were signs of the retreat of the Hu troops along the road. When the army approached the Danqiercuo River, many soldiers shouted: "There, there, the Hu troops are there!"
Sure enough, there was really a group of Huqi by the Sichirpa River.
Xue Poye saw this group of horsemen at first sight, but the strange thing was that there were only twenty or thirty people in this group of horsemen. They were lighting torches, as if they were waiting for the pursuers to arrive.
The Chu army was about to shoot these Hu people to death with arrows, but Xue Poye felt that something was fishy. The Hu people could not have sent these dozens of Hu cavalry to stop the Chu army. Apparently there were other things, so he passed on the order and told no one to do so.
Archery.
The Chu army stopped. In the roaring wind, a Huqi galloped over, stopped less than ten meters away from Xue Poye, and said loudly: "Is your Marshal Xue here?"
Facing tens of thousands of Chu troops, this Hu Qi showed no sign of timidity. When Xue Poye took a closer look, he found that he was an acquaintance. He was Zhedun, a close confidant of Ulachi.
"Zhedun!" Xue Poye said loudly, "I am here!"
Zheden turned over and dismounted, not afraid of the countless eyes waiting for him. He slowly stepped forward, bowed and saluted Xue Poye, and said loudly: "Commander Xue, our Commander Yingtu has led his troops to evacuate. Please let me stay."
Come down and present two gifts to you!" He turned around and shouted twice, speaking in nonsense, which no one could understand. Only a few Hu riders dismounted their horses and pulled out a carriage from the crowd.
The carriage was very simple, just a horse pulling a large cart. Hu people used this kind of cart to transport supplies, such as tents, but at this time, there were two wooden boxes placed side by side on the large cart.
.
At first glance, the two wooden boxes look like two coffins, but they are very different from the coffins. They are long wooden boxes.
After pulling the carriage to behind Zheton, the carriage stopped.
Zhedun cupped his hands and said: "Commander Xue, this is the gift that our Commander Yingtu will give you. Please accept it!"
"What the hell are you doing?" Xue Poye asked, "What is that?"
"Commander, don't worry. This is a sincere gift from Commander Yingtu. Commander Yingtu has given instructions. Commander will bring it back to the camp and open it, and you will understand everything." Zheton said respectfully: "Commander Yingtu also said,
Commander, please go back to camp and take a look again, otherwise...otherwise it will be ominous!"
"Fuck you." Song Fei shouted, "What's ominous? I'll open it now and take a look." He was about to rush forward, but was stopped by Xue Poye.
"Marshal Xue, we have given you the gift. If you want to kill us, we will never resist. You can now order your subordinates to shoot us." Zheden said calmly: "If the marshal lets us live, then we will
Thank you, Marshal, and now we will return to the grassland."
The faces of all the barbarian knights were calm, without the slightest hint of fear.
Sein Fei frowned. If he was talking about killing barbarians, he was definitely full of energy. However, with tens of thousands of troops facing dozens of barbarians, it was really shameful to kill them at this time.
He looked at Xue Poye, but Xue Poye frowned and waved, "You go."
"Thank you, Marshal!" Zheden saluted again, and the barbarians behind him also saluted, and turned to leave, when Xue Poye suddenly shouted: "Wait a minute!"
Zheden turned around and said with a smile: "Any other instructions, Commander-in-Chief?"
"Tell Wu Lachi that Xue Poye does not want to meet him on the battlefield again in the future." Xue Poye said solemnly: "But if he insists on being an enemy of our great Chu, Xue Poye will definitely accompany him to the end!"
…
The Chu army did not continue the pursuit, because after crossing the Shanqierpao River, less than fifty miles to the north was the territory of Beihu Tuli's evil tribe. No matter how brave the Chu army was, once they entered Beihu's territory, they would be in trouble.
Something bad happened.
After Zhe Dun led more than 20 Hu cavalry and rode away, Xue Poye ordered the army to return, bringing with them the strange carriage and gifts.
Returning to Yangguan, Xue Poye asked people to pull the strange carriage to the barracks.
Inside Yangguan, there is a barracks building, which was where the Yangguan defenders lived and rested in the past. These barracks are very simple, but they are enough to withstand the violent wind and sand.
Xue Poye knew that it was not good for everyone to see this kind of gift from Ulachi, but if no one saw it, it would be a bit inappropriate. Master Hu would give him a gift. If some people were not allowed to see clearly, Xue Poye
Po Ye was really worried that some people in the court would slander him for colluding with the barbarian commander.
Song Fei, Yang Yijun, Liu Xiao and other generals of the Chu army and some generals of the northwest army stayed in Xue Poye's camp. There were about 13 or 4 senior generals surrounding the two large wooden boxes, and they were all extremely confused.
Xue Poye clasped his hands behind his back, which was also very strange. What did Ulachi leave for him?
Just when everyone was at a loss, they suddenly heard a "dong dong dong" sound from one of the wooden boxes. This sudden sound startled everyone, including Xue Poye, and they all retreated.
"There's a ghost!" Liu Xiao choked and pulled out his sword. The other generals also pulled out their weapons and surrounded the big wooden box.
"boom!"
There was a cracking sound, and a hole was punched out from the inside of the lid of the wooden box that had been ordered. There was another "crash" sound, and the lid shattered. Amidst the flying wood chips, a figure suddenly stood up in the box.
Everyone was stunned and couldn't believe it.
The figure who stood up was tall and mighty, taller than everyone in the camp. He was dressed in the most common fur clothes of the Hu people, with pigtails, and moved his hands and feet. He laughed and said: "Good friends, we meet again.
, come, drink!" He took off a cowhide bag from his waist and threw it to Xue Poye. He took off another cowhide bag, opened the lid, raised his head and drank.
This person turned out to be Ulachi!!!
Seeing that it was a Hu man, although not everyone present knew that this Hu man was Yingtu Shuai, everyone was still shocked and quickly pointed their weapons at Wu Lachi. Yang Yijun had already shouted: "Who are you?
?”
Wu Lachi smiled and seemed not to notice these people. After taking a sip of strong wine, he patted his belly and praised: "Fire is burning. If you can drink this kind of wine, you are a warrior!" Looking at Xue Poye,
, smiled and said: "Good friend, why don't you drink?"
At this time, Song Fei's sword was already placed on Wu Lachi's neck, and he said in a deep voice: "Who are you?"
Wu Lachi also showed up on the battlefield, but at that time he was wearing a battle armor and a helmet, but now he was wearing very ordinary clothes. At first glance, he was just an ordinary barbarian. In addition,
On the battlefield, there were very few Chu soldiers who could see Ulachi up close. Now that he has changed his attire, who can recognize him?
With the knife on his neck, Wu Lachi didn't even frown, he just looked at Xue Poye with a smile.
Xue Poye came back to his senses, stretched out his thumb, and sighed: "What a courage and courage. Brother Wu, Xue Poye is convinced!"
"Commander, do you know this person?"
"He is Ulachi!" Xue Poye sighed: "The handsome Yingtu of Beihu!"
"ah!"
Everyone exclaimed, no one could believe that Commander Beihu Yingtu, who was regarded as a thorn in the flesh by the Chu people, dared to come to the Chu army camp alone. At this time, the Chu army could kill Ulachi ten thousand times.
But this person was standing in front of everyone at this moment.
After being shocked, all the generals also felt a faint sense of admiration.
It is said that the Hu people are wild, untamed and bold. It seems that this is indeed true.
"I am Wulachi!" Wulachi said carelessly. He seemed to have changed from a solemn commander who commanded thousands of troops and made everything possible to an ordinary barbarian who was bold and cheerful: "If you want to kill me, you can do it now."
"Wulachi, you are so courageous!" Seinfeld put his blade close to Wulachi's neck: "What do you want to do here?"
"I want to have a drink and chat with your commander." Wu Lachi's expression was calm, without the slightest hint of fear: "Wulachi drinks with his friends and doesn't like having idle people around. If you want to kill me, do it now. If not,
If you dare to take action, you'd better go out to avoid my temper!"
Everyone looked at each other.
In the Chu camp, this Ulachi was still so arrogant and wanted to drive everyone away. He also said that everyone did not dare to kill him, and even said that he had a temper?
What kind of person is this?
If everyone hadn't known that he was Yingtu Shuai, they would have thought he was a lunatic with mental problems.
Song Fei really looked like he was going to kill this foreigner with a knife, but when he thought that Xue Poye had not yet spoken, he couldn't help but look at Xue Poye.
At this time, as long as Xue Poye nodded slightly, Wu Lachi would definitely be chopped into pieces by the generals. Although Wu Lachi was very capable, there was no way he could survive in the face of so many experienced generals.
.
Xue Poye frowned and stared at Wu Lachi. After a while, he suddenly raised his hand and said: "Song Shuai, take everyone out!"
"Commander!" Sein Fei hurriedly advised: "This person...this person must be guarded against. You must not be alone with him, lest this person does harm."
Xue Poye shook his head and said calmly: "No need to worry, Commander Song, take them out!"
Seeing Xue Poye, Song Fei said it twice, and it was inconvenient to say it again. Thinking that Xue Poye's ability was extraordinary, even if Wu Lachi wanted to harm him, he might not be able to succeed. He could just lead his people outside to take care of him, and pull the sword from Wu Lachi.
He took it off his neck, snorted coldly, waved his hand, and led the generals out of the camp.
When Wu Lachi saw everyone going out, he laughed, raised his thumb, and said: "Good friend, Wu Lachi was not wrong about the person at first. He is courageous and courageous!"
Xue Poye smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Wu, I'm afraid no one in the world can match your courage." He pulled out the stopper of the cowhide bag, raised the cowhide bag and said, "Here, drink!"
Holding two cowhide bags together, they both looked up and drank.dd
