Wuzhou Fortress, this was the camp of the Han army three days ago, a frontier fortress full of laughter and laughter.
At this moment, it was already a mess, like a hell on earth.
On the streets, mottled blood stains and messy body fragments can be seen everywhere.
The extremely crazy Huns, with their breasts exposed, brandished their weapons, pinched each person's head, and laughed endlessly.
"Why don't you people of the Han Dynasty know what is good and what is good?" A Xiongnu nobleman, with his pigtails loose, holding a human head in his hand, pretended to be questioning to the two Han Dynasty businessmen next to him who were smiling apologetically:
"You are neither willing to be a slave to my great Huns, nor are you willing to surrender, but you still want to resist. This is really embarrassing for me!"
The two businessmen said with apologetic smiles on their faces: "What the noble man is saying... what the noble man is saying is... this foolish man, who does not know the current affairs and does not know the fate of the world, vainly tries to make things difficult for the Huns, and is really worthy of death!"
Under the stairs, dozens of tied up Han people were kneeling.
These people, with disheveled hair and ragged clothes, were obviously criminals and prisoners who had been ordered to work and colonize here in the past.
In the Han Dynasty, basically the criminals and prisoners who were sent to the frontiers were mainly the son-in-law and the local ruffians.
Some of these people had already resigned themselves to their fate, hanging their heads and remaining silent for fear of offending the Huns and losing their lives.
There were also people with smiles on their faces, thinking only of how to curry favor with the conqueror.
But there were also people who looked unhappy and stared.
"Yidi lackeys!" someone spat and cursed: "When my great master of the Han Dynasty arrives, you will all be made into enemies!"
"The Holy Emperor is omniscient and omnipotent. Maybe, at this moment, Juzhu Army and Feihu Army are already outside Yanmen Pass!" The man struggled to get up and cursed loudly: "I'm afraid Chang'an's Imperial Army is also on the way.
Now, just wait until you are crushed into pulp by my invincible King Master!"
"Noisy!" The Hun noble was furious when he heard this. He dropped the head in his hand, strode forward, kicked the man to the ground, and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill you with one knife?"
"Hahahaha..." The man raised his head and laughed: "If a man dies, he will die. What's so scary?"
When the noble heard this, he drew his sword in anger and chopped off the man's head. Blood spurted out immediately.
"Who else? Who else? Who else dares to resist the great Huns?" The noble looked ferocious, holding the head, drinking hot blood in big gulps, and yelling.
"Traitor!" Another man stood up and cursed: "The Han people can't be killed without stopping. If you can kill one person, how can you kill thousands of Han heroes in the world?"
"Moreover, if you ignore the peace agreement and go to the border without permission, you will be punished by God!"
"Another one who is not afraid of death!" The noble's expression changed drastically. He could not have imagined that there were still Han people who had such courage.
He walked over and stabbed him again.
However, this knife cut the man's knee.
Immediately, the man fell to the ground, blood splattered on his legs.
"Are you convinced?" the noble asked loudly, putting the knife on the other's neck.
"Bah!" This seemingly ordinary Han man spat on the opponent.
"I am a dignified Chinese nobleman, am I willing to submit to the feet of you and other Yi and Di beasts?" The man said impassionedly: "Since ancient times, I, the Zhang family, have never had anyone commit themselves to the Yi and Di!"
"Ah..." the nobleman shouted, cut off the man's hands, and jumped to ask: "Are you willing to surrender? If so, I will have someone bandage you immediately. I promise to support you for the rest of your life!"
"Bah!" His reply was still spitting.
"Go to hell!" The nobleman raised his knife and chopped off the Han man's head. Then he lifted the head and said, "I will make you into a drinking vessel and use it as a urinal!"
"Who among you is not willing to be a slave to my great Huns?" The nobleman, covered in blood, asked the prisoners who were forced to kneel on the ground.
"Yidiguo is a beast!" Another person broke free from the shackles of the Xiongnu soldiers, stood up and laughed: "Do you think that Chinese nobles can be killed with a knife?"
"Damn it!" The nobleman was furious. He walked over and stabbed him again.
"Hahahaha..." Another person stood up with his head held high: "The skills of those who lead beasts and cannibals only stop here!"
This Hun noble finally felt scared.
"Crazy, you are all crazy!" He looked at the blood and corpses on the ground with trembling hands.
He knew who these prisoners were.
Except for a few Han soldiers, most of them were criminals of the Han Dynasty.
These criminals were mainly son-in-laws with the lowest social status in the Han Dynasty and ruffians from the countryside.
They were a group of people who were spurned and despised by Han Dynasty society.
However, these people, these people who have been discriminated against and suppressed even in their own countries, are so brave and unafraid of death, and so strong-willed.
It can't be killed, it can't be exterminated.
As long as half of the population of the Han Dynasty were such people.
The Huns will never be able to defeat this enemy, and they will never be able to enslave this country like they did the kingdoms in the Western Regions.
This made him feel scared and scared.
How many people were there in the Han Dynasty?
At least thirty or forty million!
The population is dozens of times that of the Huns!
This reality made him feel desperate.
In this mood, he shouted crazily: "Anyone who dares to get up will have his legs broken..."
"Stop!" Just as his order was about to be carried out, a stern voice came over.
A Hun nobleman on horseback, wearing a wolfskin hat and a copper ring on his nose, rode over. He looked at the field and said in stern words: "Partridge! Are you crazy? These slaves,
They are all the property of my great Huns, how can you kill them at will?"
When the Hun noble named Partridge saw this man, he quickly knelt down and said, "Great King Loufan, these bastards don't know whether to live or die, I'm just teaching them a lesson!"
"Partridge!" King Loufan dismounted and walked up to the prisoners and said, "These are righteous men and strong men. You have gone too far!"
"Come here!" King Lou Fan ordered: "Drag Marquis Partridge of Gudu who killed the righteous soldiers of the Han Dynasty without authorization, and give him a thirty-horse whip!"
These two sentences were spoken by Lou Fanwang in Chinese.
Then, he took a step forward and walked in front of the Han people who were standing with their heads held high. He cupped his hands and said: "You warriors, I have always loved warriors like you. If you are willing to surrender to me, I will immediately grant you the title of
Xiao Wang, command a whole army and give orders to a whole place!"
Next to King Loufan, a man with disheveled hair but an obviously Han face immediately smiled and said: "Gentlemen, why don't you quickly kneel down and thank the great King Loufan? The little king of the Xiongnu is equivalent to the Han Dynasty.
The county magistrate can govern an entire army, command hundreds of cavalry, and have beautiful wives and concubines!"
King Loufan turned around and reprimanded the man: "How can a brave and righteous man be lured with beauty, wealth and honor? I sincerely ask all the righteous men to assist me, just like King Wen of Zhou Dynasty in the Han Dynasty who admired sages!"
I always respect you the most!”
"The king is talking about slave Meng Lang!" The man immediately lowered his head and said.
"Hahaha..." A man from the Han Dynasty laughed loudly: "As a native of Zhuxia, you will die as a Chinese ghost. That so-called Loufan King, I advise you not to dream!"
"I, Mr. Zhang, have killed people, set fires, and done all kinds of evil in my life, but there is one thing that I will not do even if I am dead and my bones have been ground into powder! That is to forget my ancestors.
Zong, was sent to the left and turned into a barbarian!"
When King Lou Fan heard this, his expression changed, and his face became a little sullen.
He reluctantly stopped the anger in his heart and said warmly: "A strong man does not need to worry. He is the king's servant and does not need to be punished. There is no need to betray his ancestors and forget his ancestors. I have always treated righteous men with a heart full of talent, just like longing for the spring rain."
Moist land is like a land with no restrictions... If the strong man surrenders to me as he wishes, I will immediately make him the owner. I am even more willing to marry a girl to the strong man as his wife!"
"Moreover, strong men can still wear crowns and belts, and wear left-hand garments, just like in the Han Dynasty..."
However, his answer was still: "Bah!"
"Stop being hypocritical, the children of the Zhang family will never be the lackeys of Yi and Di!"
This made King Lou Fan a little angry.
However, he did not gain nothing.
Two men from the Han Dynasty, after hearing King Loufan's promise, could not resist the temptation and chose to give in.
They knelt down and worshiped: "Fortunately, the king will not give up, and I am willing to serve as a general under the king!"
In their opinion, King Loufan of the Xiongnu could be considered a wise master if he could deign to condescend to him, recruit him personally, and promise benefits.
After all, they cannot have such a future in China!
This allowed King Lou Fan to save some face.
However, except for these two people, the other three people held their heads high and chest out with disdain, and said: "Chief Yi Di, there is no need to talk nonsense, if you want to kill, I will kill, if you want to chop, I will chop!"
"I don't believe it!" King Loufan shook his head and said, "Come here, take these people back to Nanchi and keep them under guard. When I join our forces, we will take them back to Qilian Mountain!"
"Since you are not willing to become Huns, then I, the king, will take you to the Huns. If you don't want to do it, you have to do it!"
King Lou Fan has been dealing with the Han Dynasty for twenty or thirty years.
In the process, he gradually understood.
Knives, bows and arrows cannot conquer the Han people.
Killing and flogging are even less possible.
What's more important is that every time a righteous man and talented person from the Han Dynasty is recruited and surrendered, it will only bring benefits to the Xiongnu, especially his tribe, but no harm.
Each of these outstanding Han people is an elite that the Xiongnu could not cultivate.
They can help the Loufan tribe, manage the people, formulate rules and regulations, and train soldiers.
The benefits are unimaginable.
Even in King Loufan's mind, the biggest gain from the invasion of Han was not how much wealth was stolen or how many Han armies were defeated.
Rather, how many talents from the Han Dynasty were recruited.
Every time you recruit more talents and elites, the Loufan tribe will become stronger.
If you can get the officials and craftsmen of the Han Dynasty to surrender, the benefits will be even greater.
For this reason, in the past ten years or so, King Lou Fan has gradually embarked on the path of Huairou.
Let his subordinates make a fool of themselves, and he will be a good person to win over people's hearts.
Unfortunately, many people in the Han Dynasty had extremely hard bones.
Killing, beating, and humiliating them all cannot yield them.
This made King Lou Fan feel a little helpless.
Fortunately, not all Han people are such tough-minded people, and not all tough-minded people cannot yield.
Beauty, wealth, punishment, there is always one that can make people bow their heads.
Even if you can't give in to these things, you can still slowly work them with water.
Generally speaking, as long as these strong men of the Han Dynasty gave birth to children in the Xiongnu and had offspring, they would gradually accept their fate.
Therefore, King Lou Fan was not worried at all.
"When I come to the Han Dynasty this time, I will get at least dozens of righteous soldiers to return home..." King Lou Fan thought in his mind: "If I can get a few hundred craftsmen, that would be great!"
"However, I have to beware of King Zhelan trying to ruin my big event!"
Different from him.
King Zhelan and his tribe are complete lunatics and barbarians.
Every time this tribe invades, everything along the way will be burned to the ground.
Kill them all, loot them all, and burn them all, this is the creed of the Zhelan tribe.
Zhelan's cavalry are still stuck in the primitive era, and they are proud of who has the most heads in their collection.
During this march, King Loufan felt that the greatest pain was not caused by the Han army, but by the lunatics of the Zhelan tribe.
"I have to talk to the Aries King..."
With this thought in mind, King Loufan mounted his horse again and rode forward.
…………………………………………
At this moment, the former Han Dynasty frontier fortress, which separated civilization and barbarism, inside and outside Wuzhou Fortress, has become a sea of cavalry.
Tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry are passing through Wuzhou Fortress and entering the territory of the Han Dynasty in an orderly manner.
The flow of war horses and people stretched for several miles.
"It's a pity that the Han Dynasty people still lit the beacon fire!" Yin Zhi rode sideways on his horse, looking at the wolf smoke extending into the distance from a distance.
This was the most troublesome place for the Huns towards the Han Dynasty's frontier fortresses.
Every time the Xiongnu invaded, they were extremely agitated when faced with the resistance of these Han Dynasty border fortresses.
Although the garrison at these border fortresses is pitifully small.
But every time it succeeds in igniting the smoke.
Then, beacon towers were lit one after another, and the beacon fire would extend directly to the hinterland of the Han Dynasty.
In less than half a day, both the Han army in Taiyuan and the Han army in Feihukou will be mobilized.
Chang'an will be alerted in three days at the latest.
Then, comes the terrible mobilization.
In the past history, the Han Dynasty mobilized an army of 500,000 people in one month to march north to resist the Xiongnu army.
Such terrifying speed and scale of mobilization was what the Huns feared and feared the most.
An army of this size was enough to push the Huns all the way back to the grasslands.
Then, at the foot of the Great Wall border fortress, the armies of the two countries began to play a game of big eyes and small eyes.
Until both parties are exhausted.
"One day, if I were a Chanyu, I would have to figure out how to break this policy of the Han Dynasty!" Yin Zhixie thought in his heart.
As for now?
"Let the military ministers worry about this matter!" Yin Zhi sneered in his heart, then raised his riding whip and ordered to the left and right: "Send an order to the entire army. After entering the Han Dynasty, without my order, do not act rashly!"
He now only has the strength of one thousand knights.
Only this can guarantee reliability and loyalty.
Naturally, we need to protect it.
Anyway, Yin Zhixie has already made up his mind.
To charge into battle, let Aries, Loufan and Zhelan do it.
Once he found out that something was not going well, he would immediately abandon these three servants and run away.
"As you command!" Left and Right promised loudly.
Then, a large banner with a wolf's head painted on one side began to rise among the Huns' army.
Following this flag, the troops of King Youxian of the Xiongnu began to enter the pass. (To be continued.)
