General Qin

Chapter 571

To the south of the Helan Grassland, a vast flat land near the Dahe River.

There are continuous camps here, and the black Qin flag flutters in the wind.

Soldiers in Qin armor came in and out of the camp.

A group of Qin soldiers led their horses and walked outside the camp. They were going to perform today's patrol mission.

"I heard that the general won a big victory in Helan, and the Guishuang Yue clan with tens of thousands of people was directly taken down by our army. Tsk tsk, the general is really worthy of being a famous general of our Qin country. These savages on the grassland are also relaxed."

The leader Qin Jun Shichang said as he walked, his face was full of admiration.

Another Qin pawn next to him laughed and said, "That's great. The war is over soon, so we can go home. I miss my wife a long time ago."

"Hmph, women will only affect our belief in making meritorious deeds, what's there to think about."

A Qin soldier with a beard complained: "I planned to kill the enemy hard on the battlefield, raise the title to the hairpin, and let my son enter the school to pretend to be an official. Who knows that this time I didn't even fight. I've fought, but I'm really pissed off. If I go out on patrol this time, I can catch the fleeing Yueshi cavalry by chance, as long as I catch two, I can be promoted to the rank of Zanyou!"

Chief Qin Jun turned around and sneered: "Shi Er, don't think about it, except that at the beginning, the unsightly Yuezhi people bumped into them, and they were taken advantage of by the patrolling robe Ze. How could there be Yuezhi people running over during this time?" They are not fools for giving us a chance to make meritorious deeds and be promoted to noble ranks, and they have already run away after hearing that our army is blocked here."

Shi Er shut up resentfully. During this period of time, he really didn't hear about the Yue Clan's rout approaching. Their patrol mission was actually just a formality.

In the Qin army, some people wanted to make meritorious deeds to kill the enemy and raise their titles, while others only hoped that the war would end soon and they could return to their hometown. But no matter what kind of thoughts these Qin soldiers had in mind, they all looked relaxed, and they could not see the vigilance and vigilance during the war at all.

It was only because they had already received the news that the main force of the Qin army had won in Helan.

The three tribes of Yuezhi in Henan, the Shuangmi tribe were defeated and wiped out in the first battle, and the Guishuang tribe was now defeated by the main force in the Helan Grassland, leaving only the last Humi Yuezhi lingering in the north, unable to reach Here they are.

As for the royal court of the Yue clan in Hexi and the remaining two Yue clans, according to the investigation by the cavalry of the Qin army, they are still hundreds of miles away and have no intention of coming to rescue.

Therefore, Qiang Li's side division basically had no chance to fight, and the Qin army was very lazy.

I heard that their General Qiang Li even drank with others all day long to kill time, and he didn't care much about his soldiers.

"Zhao Tuo, Zhao Tuo, you have made a great contribution!"

In the coach's big tent, Qiang Li raised the wine cup to his mouth, drank it in one gulp, his eyes dimmed with drunkenness.

Zhao Tuo's victory in Helan declared the end of the battle to capture Henan. Before the start of a new war, Qiang Li had no chance of making any meritorious service. .

How could Qiang Lu not be angry in his heart, and while letting his nephew Qiang Ren pour the wine, he complained in his mouth.

"At the beginning, I had a grudge with Zhao Tuo because of Li Xin's matter. I thought he was young, so I didn't bother to talk to him. I didn't know that he killed Qiang Dagger when he changed hands in Weidi, and didn't give me any face. "

"Later on Fachu, I didn't want to argue with him for the sake of Marquis Wucheng, but this kid used my banner to attack Huaiyin and almost ruined my reputation. It's really bad."

Qiang Zhen took another sip of wine, breathing heavily and said: "I, Qiang Zhen, have a big heart, and I don't have the same knowledge as Zhao Tuo, and I backed down many times in the face of his bullying. Later, when he wanted Princess Shang, I was rejected by those Confucian scholars said that the same surname does not marry, and I spoke for him. This expedition is to support his strategy of the northern expedition against the barbarians."

"You said I was so kind to him, why did he, Zhao Tuo, bully me like this! Not being a son of man, really not being a son of man!"

Qiang Ren's face turned blue, he looked left and right, and he was relieved to see only him and Qiang Yan's nephew and uncle in the tent.

It is a serious crime to slander the general in private!

If it gets out, at least the title will have to be cut off. If Zhao Tuo is very angry, no one will say anything even if Qiang Li is beheaded.

Qiang Ren was terrified when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Uncle, you are drunk."

Qiang Yan's eyes widened, and he said angrily, "Drunk? Why are you drunk!"

"Naigong is very sober. It is he, Zhao Tuo, who Naigong scolded. This son stole all the merits and threw me here to guard the river, how hateful! If Zhao Tuo still has some conscience, at least give me some credit!"

Just when Qiang Ren was trembling with fear from these complaints, there was a rush of footsteps outside the tent.

Immediately afterwards, Qiang Li's short-soldier cronies walked into the tent excitedly, shouting excitedly: "General! Great work! Great work has come!"

"Great merit, what great merit can there be, can you still send me Xihou of the Yue family?"

Hearing this, Qiang Yan sneered, pointed to the empty wine glass to his nephew, and reprimanded: "What are you doing in a daze, pour the wine."

The short soldiers shouted excitedly: "It's Xihou! Our patrolling cavalry found that he might be Xihou of Yueshi! Wearing a big red robe and a golden crown, he ran over surrounded by hundreds of cavalry and saw our patrolling cavalry After that, he fled in a hurry! Sima said that among the Yuezhi people, only Xihou wore a golden crown and a big red robe. This person was probably Xihou of the Yueshi family. Let's run this way!"

Qiang Lu was startled, then excitedly overturned the drinking table in front of him, and the flying wine splashed Qiang Ren's face.

He laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha, God bless me! This is really a gift to me, Zhao Tuo, you didn't expect it?"

Saying that, Qiang Li got up, ran crookedly to the outside of the tent, and shouted: "Come on, quickly gather all the soldiers and horses for me, I want to chase and intercept, and I must arrest this Yueshi Xihou! "

"Zhao Tuo, if you don't give me credit, you will send me your own credit. When I catch this Xihou, you will be surprised!"

"Hahaha!"

...

"How could this Qiang be fooled by the Yuezhi people?"

In the coach's big tent on the Helan Grassland, Zhao Tuo threw the letter in his hand on the desk, his face full of disgust.

This is a military letter sent by the Qin Army's partial division from the south.

It wasn't written by the master general Qiang Li, he probably didn't have the face to write a letter to Zhao Tuo.

The person who reported was the censor who supervised the army who accompanied the army, and briefly described what happened in the side division.

A man dressed in a big red robe and a golden crown, suspected to be Xihou of the Yue family, led a group of Yue family cavalry near the partial division of the Qin army led by Qiang Lu.

After receiving the news, Qiang Li, who was in a drunk state, had no time to think, and immediately led his army to hunt him down.

The entire Qin army's partial division fell into an excited turmoil. All the cavalry was dispatched, and a lot of infantry were dispatched to chase and intercept the fleeing Marquis of the Yue family, which led to loopholes in the original defense line.

As a result, when Qiang Li was about to capture "Yueshi Xihou", a group of hundreds of elite Yueshi cavalry raided the Qin army's defense line at night, and quickly broke through under the cover of night and in the astonishment of the Qin people. After breaking through the line of defense, he disappeared without a trace. It seems that he should have gone to the Yuezhi Royal Court.

It was not until Qiang Li worked hard on the grassland and finally caught the escaped "Yueshi Xihou" that he realized that he had been tricked by the Yuezhi people to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

The real Marquis Xiumi had already taken the opportunity to run away.

Zhao Tuo shook his head helplessly, and asked Xiao He to copy the letter sent by the supervisory censor into the battle report to be sent to Xianyang.

He would not target Qiang Li maliciously, he would only tell the truth.

"Run away, just let this Hou Mixi bring the power of my Qin army back to the Yuezhi, and scare the remaining Yuezhi."

Zhao Tuo can take it easy, anyway, he won't be able to catch him if he runs away, so it's better to think about something happy.

Moreover, the three Yue clans were either annihilated or conquered by the Qin army in Henan, and the entire Yue clan lost nearly half of its troops, which can be said to be severely damaged, and the remnants in Hexi are not to be feared.

Zhao Tuo's eyes temporarily moved away from Yuezhi's body.

In the following time, he did not immediately launch an attack against the Huns, but asked Yang Yuan to continue to strictly guard the northern river and cut off all sources of news from the Huns.

The other side is to select suitable candidates to implement the plan to destroy Hungary.

At the same time, the subdued Yuezhi cavalry and Qin cavalry were dispatched to attack in four directions in Henan, subduing all the Rong tribes on this vast grassland.

The Qin army planted the black Qin flag belonging to the Qin State on every oasis and lake, so that every foreign tribe on this land would submit to the Qin State and accept the rule of the Great Qin Emperor.

At the end of August, the Qin army finally completed the task of taking all the land in Henan, occupying the vast land surrounded by the "ji" shape of the Yellow River.

When Zhao Tuo was in full swing and preparing to cross the north to attack the Xiongnu, he also took all the achievements of Henan and sent a messenger to report to Xianyang.

"The emperor will be very happy to expand the territory for him."

Zhao Tuo stood at the door of the handsome tent, facing the autumn wind, looking in the direction of Xianyang.

He thought of Emperor Shihuang.

Think of the princess.

His heart softened.

"And my son."

Zhao Tuo muttered, thinking of the letter the princess sent last time.

"Zhao Che, what a good name."

There will be three changes tomorrow, so make up for last time.
