Chapter 157 The heroine Di Ji who died for her country (thirty-six)
Lin Zhen received the battle report from the front line. At that time, he praised Li Mo and Sun Tong in the court. He also showed no mercy on the rewards they deserved and sent them to the border in cars like flowing water.
Of course, things on the Xiongnu side were not over yet. The news of the Chu Dynasty's counterattack only caused a small disturbance in the Xiongnu army, which was quickly overshadowed by the fights between the Khan and several kings.
Li Mo just listened to the news from Xizuo that they had beaten their relatives to the point of disowning them, and felt that the scene must be wonderful.
Huerqi and his brothers were beaten to a pulp. In the end, Huerqi's second brother was hacked to death during a confrontation with Huerqi. After the third brother was defeated and arrested, he cursed Huerqi in prison.
Qi then committed suicide by hitting the wall. When the seventh brother was fighting with him, he shot an arrow through the palm of Qi's right hand and was shot to death by a cold arrow from behind.
All the kings of the Xiongnu were killed, and all the soldiers who followed them in rebellion were also killed.
Li Mo really didn't expect that this plan could be so powerful.
But now that the Xiongnu are killing each other like this, as a general who has been fighting with the Xiongnu all year round, it is difficult for him to watch such a great opportunity slip away from him.
He decided to lead his army to attack Mobei.
There is no need to elaborate on the process in between. In short, Li Mo marched all the way deep into the hinterland of Mobei, and his army pointed directly at the Golden Court of the Xiongnu.
Kurqi's mind was focused on the brothers he defeated and the subsequent liquidation. He was caught off guard by this army that seemed to fall from the sky, and was captured again without any surprise.
How should I put it, it's easy to get used to it. Although Kurqi was captured, he only became violent for a short time. He quickly calmed down and experienced the process of being tied up and dragged down skillfully.
Several other Huns clan members were also taken as prisoners.
Li Mo set fire to the Xiongnu's Golden Tent Palace, and then led the troops away with these prisoners who had high positions among the Xiongnu.
When the news reached the capital, Lin Zhen couldn't help but applaud Li Mo's decisive action: "Haha, okay! Let General Li escort the Xiongnu Khan and the rest of the clan to the capital!"
Huerqi, who did not return to the familiar iron prison and was put into a cage and rushed on the road, was a little uneasy. He couldn't help but ask Li Mo: "Where are you taking us?"
"Go back to the capital." Li Mo glanced at him coldly and said, "Your Majesty asked me to escort you to the capital."
Hu Erqi wanted to ask again, but looking at Li Mo's expression, he wisely closed his mouth and retreated into the corner of the cage.
He was thinking crazily in the swaying cage: If his information was correct, wouldn't the current emperor of the Chu Dynasty be Jiang Wei? When he thought of this name, he couldn't help but shudder: Ouch,
She's not going to beat me up again, is she?
It was a severe psychological trauma caused by Lin Zhen's persecution.
Unexpectedly, after arriving in the capital, Li Mo released them and found a place for them to live surrounded by a circle of soldiers. This made Gurqi even more worried.
He couldn't help but inquire around: "What exactly does the Emperor of Chu intend to do with us?"
Then he was scolded mercilessly: "How can we know His Majesty's thoughts? Just do whatever you are told, don't ask so many questions!"
Hu Erqi returned to the room sullenly.
Soon, he knew what Lin Zhen planned to do.
"Celebration banquet? Let me and the clan go to the banquet?" Huerqi listened to the news from Li Mo's order, nodded and bowed, "Yes, I understand."
After the people left, he couldn't help but cursed: Celebration banquet? What are you celebrating? Isn't this a naked humiliation?
Thinking of this, he sighed again and comforted himself: "Forget it. The situation is stronger than the person. It's nothing to be humiliated..."
When it was time for the dinner, Huerqi cautiously led the remaining clan members to sit down at the back of the banquet. At the same time, he had to endure all kinds of strange looks from around him, and he always felt that he was not sitting comfortably.
After Lin Zhen sat down at the table, they had to imitate the Chu Dynasty officials around them and salute each other, which made their sense of humiliation even higher.
"All my dear friends, please rise."
After Lin Zhen took his seat, he smiled and raised his hand to everyone and said, "Everyone, please sit down."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Lin Zhen got straight to the point, looked at the officials below and said: "Today's banquet is to welcome the two generals Li Mo and Sun Tong and celebrate our army's victory over the Xiongnu!" She raised the wine cup on the table and said loudly
, "I join you all in toasting the two generals!"
The officials also smiled and raised their wine cups: "To the two generals."
Li Mo and Sun Tong quickly raised their glasses of wine and responded from a distance: "Thank you, Your Majesty. Thank you all colleagues."
In this harmonious atmosphere, only Huerqi and the Huns clan were very embarrassed: as defeated prisoners, they had to participate in the victory celebrations here, which was really uneasy.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere in the palace was slightly tipsy. The graceful dancer finished her dance and her cloud sleeves fluttered, which pushed the lively atmosphere in the palace to the climax.
After the dancers exited the hall, Lin Zhen held a wine cup in one hand and said with a smile: "What do Khan Khan think of dancing for this?"
Huerqi stood up tremblingly and replied: "It is indeed wonderful."
"Yes." Lin Zhen put down the wine cup and said with a smile that could not refuse, "I heard that the Huns have always been good at singing and dancing. Could you please ask the Khan to perform a dance for us?"
Huerqi: Where did you hear this rumor?
But he didn't dare to refuse at all. He could only nod with tears in his eyes: "It's embarrassing."
Kurqi had never felt that his body was so flexible before. He danced a sacrificial dance, his body trembling rhythmically, barely showing a dance that was not so eye-catching.
"That's right." After the dance, Lin Zhen took the lead in applauding, "The Huns are really good at singing and dancing, and the dance of Khan Gurqi is also very interesting."
Huerqi had already understood what they were going to do. He knelt down with a plop and said to Lin Zhen: "Hurqi is willing to accept your Majesty as the Great Khan. From now on, we will put down the war. The Huns will always be the subjects of the Chu Dynasty.
I hope your majesty will give you permission!"
"Haha, what are you doing?" Lin Zhen smiled with satisfaction, "Since Khan Gurqi is asking for it so sincerely, I can't deny your request. I'm sure!"
Huerqi stood up in cold sweat: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
The Mianqi in front of Lin Zhen's eyes shook slightly, she laughed, and said boldly: "I have never been easy to fight, and all the previous incidents were just due to circumstances. Since the Xiongnu is willing to serve the Chu Dynasty as the master, they must live in peace in the future.
I don’t want to see another conflict in the world!”
Huerqi did not dare to complain about Lin Zhen's "not easy to fight" and said respectfully: "During my reign, if there is another dispute between the Huns and the Chu Dynasty, I will cut off my head to apologize to Your Majesty!"
"Okay!" Lin Zhen slapped the table, "Khan is indeed a peace-loving person! Come on, have a drink!"
