Qin Gong

Chapter 441 Bai Yan's sword, Xi's worry.

On the street, the sleeping soldiers had already been awakened. However, when they saw the people of Woyang, they continued to sleep without any precautions. A place to continue to lie down.

The fierce battle under the mountains in the clouds, the squatting for several days, removed the life and death on the blade, and the heavy rain also took away the physical strength of the side riders.

There may not be so many scruples at the time of life and death, but after the bloody battle, without exception, both the generals and the soldiers felt overwhelming exhaustion. In the Yunzhong Valley Road after the battle, many soldiers fainted because of this. .

Woyang City Gate.

"What's going on? Why is it blocked? What happened ahead?"

"I do not know!"

"Let's go!"

With the noisy sound outside the city gate, the people who had already entered the city and were stunned in place woke up. Looking at the appearance of those soldiers on the border, the people didn't know what to say.

Quiet, perhaps the best expression at the moment.

More and more people entered the city, followed by the noise outside the city gradually weakening. When every citizen who stepped into the city gate saw the scene inside the city, they all quieted down in shock. , unable to return to God for a long time.

for a long time.

When people walk along the street and head towards their homes, when people walk carefully on the street and look at the side riders who are sleeping on the spot in disarray, at this moment, All eyes were red.

An indescribable emotion filled the hearts of the people of Woyang. The people were not well-informed in the past, so they were easily taken advantage of by the gentry. From the Yunzhong Mountains is the northern grassland. Seeing this scene with their own eyes, the people of Woyang don't know what happened and why they left Woyang secretly wearing the armor of side riders.

Recalling the complaints of the past few days, recalling the dissatisfaction in the heart of the past few days, and recalling the words in private.

When seeing this scene with their own eyes, this huge reversal caused all the people of Woyang to feel extremely guilty and remorse.

From the street at a glance, the heads of the Huns are all over the ground!

Anyone who has eyes knows exactly what happened after they left.

"Good man!"

On the street, some returning women stepped forward with red eyes when they saw familiar figures, and there was an elderly man beside them.

Many of the wives and children of the Border Cavalry soldiers are actually in Woyang. Now, after returning with their families, they will naturally get together.

"Baby~! What happened here?"

An old woman in her 50s came to a couple, looked at her son and asked.

On the quiet street where there were only footsteps, the soft words of the old woman instantly attracted the attention of countless people, and many gray-haired old men and ordinary people all looked over.

"Mother, it was General Bai Yan who guessed that the Xiongnu would go south, so he took our soldiers with us. After mother and the people in the city left, he came here late at night, entered the cloud the next day, and fought the Xiongnu in the Yunzhong mountain range!"

The man looked at his mother and said.

A simple sentence, and the process involved, every Woyang citizen who heard it couldn't help but bow their heads in shame.

And in other places on the street, some women were looking for something in the street with panicked faces, their eyes kept sweeping over the cheeks of border knights, as time passed, the women's faces became more and more desperate, and their eyes were flushed stand up.

"Where is the general?"

After Hui Pu, Yu He entered the city, they were shocked when they saw the appearance of the frontier soldiers in the city, and quickly ordered someone to call a Qin official to ask.

After questioning, I learned that Bai Yan is currently in the mansion of the Xu family in Woyang.

So Yu He and Hui Pu got off their horses quickly and let the officials of Qin lead the way towards Xu's mansion.

In Xu's mansion.

When Yu He and Hui Pu saw Bai Yan, the yard was filled with wooden boxes full of coins, and there were countless cloths. The servants and maids were busy back and forth. When they came to the study, Many members of the Woyang gentry are chatting very lively.

"General Yu He!"

"General HP!!"

Everyone from the gentry saw Yu He and Hui Pu coming. As a gentry from Woyang, they naturally knew the two of them, so they hurriedly bowed their hands and saluted. Seeing their hurried faces, it was clear that it was Baiyan, the Xunjun Wei, and they all turned sideways. Give Way.

Seeing Bai Yan in front of the wooden table, Yu He and Hui Pu hurried forward.

"General!"

"General!!"

Yu He and Hui Pu bowed their hands to Bai Yan and saluted.

"It's good for you two to come back! Take someone to count the number of heads immediately, take all the money in the yard to distribute to the soldiers, and distribute them to the soldiers according to the previous head and clothes. It must be registered in the bamboo book!"

Bai Yan turned his head and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Yu He and Hui Pu returning.

While speaking, Bai Yan handed the IOU written in his hand to the gentry who had been waiting for a long time. Because of Bai Yan's status as the captain of Yanmen and the fact that he had obtained a fief before, it was not difficult to borrow money from these gentry.

As far as Bai Yan is concerned, no matter where it is from Luoyin, or the money he got before, or even the Lu family from Shanwu City, if you give Bai Yan some time, Bai Yan is not short of money.

However, in the bottom of Bai Yan's heart, he knew very well that he had to wait to go back and forth with the money, what this time meant to the orphans of those fallen soldiers, and for those soldiers who made meritorious service, nothing could compare with it after the war. It's even more pleasing to be rewarded immediately.

As a lieutenant of Yanmen County, although the news of borrowing money has no major impact, and it seems to be quite redundant, it will cause a lot of trouble for no reason, and it is probably the choice that anyone else would not hesitate to choose, etc., but Bai Yan But choose troublesome.

"No! General, General, let's take a rest!"

"Yes! General!"

When Yu He and Hui Pu heard Bai Yan's order, they instinctively accepted the order, but when they saw Bai Yan's slightly bloodshot eyes, they didn't know that Bai Yan might not have had a good rest after the battle.

So the two hurriedly persuaded Bai Yan to rest, and left the rest to them.

Bai Yan shook his head.

"There are still corpses of soldiers in the Yunzhong Mountains, but they have not been brought back. The corpses of the Huns also need to be dealt with!"

Thinking of something, Bai Yan looked at Yu He and HP.

Seeing Bai Yan's eyes, Yu He and Hui Pu looked puzzled, not knowing why Bai Yan looked at them like this.

"There is also Yifang's body, which must be brought back to his family!"

Bai Yan said.

In a word, Yu He and Hui Pu froze in place, opened their mouths, looked at Bai Yan in disbelief, and their eyes gradually turned red.

At this moment, the former appearance of Yifang, the scenes of the past, and Yifang's hearty laughter appeared in the minds of the two of them.

Tears filled the eyes of the two.

"Yifang died in the battle with me. Five days later, the two of you will lead the side cavalry back to the camp, and I will personally send Yifang home!"

Bai Yan turned his head and looked at the bamboo slips on the wooden table in front of him, and the image of Yifang's head hanging under the gate of the pass appeared in his mind.

Shan Wucheng Bai Yan is not in a hurry to go back.

During the last part of the journey in Yifang, Bai Yan, the chief general, wanted to personally send him on the journey.

Inside the study.

Yu He and Hui Pu, two big and three rough men, had red eyes at the moment, sobbing and crying, listening to Bai Yan's words, they raised their hands one after another.

"promise!"

"promise!!"

Wiping the tears off their faces, both Yu He and Hui Pu quietly waited for Bai Yan's next order.

Northern steppe.

In the Xiongnu tribe, in a huge and luxurious tent, women in scantily dressed kneeling on the ground gathered together, without exception, all of these women were very delicate and brutal.

"Shan Yu!"

"Chan Yu!!!"

A group of tribal leaders including Di Yan, Murtuo, Gu Jai, Wu Jier, etc. stood by the bed one after another, looking at Touman Chanyu who had awakened.

Seeing that Touman Shanyu was fine, almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Shan Yu, over 6000 people died in our tribe this time!"

Di Yan looked at the pale and very weak Tou Manchanyu, and said softly.

When this number was uttered, even the people who had already prepared for it could not help being in a trance. Who would have thought that so many people died in their Hun tribe in that mountain range in the clouds.

It will take at least a few years for this to recover.

In the quiet tent.

Murto, Wu Quer and the others didn't speak, but the look of loss appeared on almost everyone's cheeks.

"go!"

Two Huns walked in with a heavily tied Guo Yi, and then came in front of all the Huns leaders.

"Chan Yu, it's none of my business! Shan Yu, I didn't lie to you! Please, let me go, Shan Yu!!!"

Guo Yi saw Touman Chanyu who had come to his senses, his cheeks were full of joy, kneeling on the ground, moving forward continuously.

But it's not close yet.

Gu Jaw appeared in front of him and kicked Guo Yi directly on the head. As Guo Yi fell back to the ground, a painful sound resounded in the tent.

When Guo Yi turned his head with blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, he suddenly saw the burly Gu Jaw straddling his body, as if preparing to kill him.

"Shan Yu, you can't kill me. I am a member of the Guo family, and I am a member of Guo Zong's family. If you kill me, my brother will definitely avenge me!"

In desperation, Guo Yi said in a hurry, trying to use Guo Zong to frighten many Xiongnu leaders in front of him, as well as Touman Chanyu.

"You can't kill me!"

While Guo Yi was speaking, he didn't notice that following his words and the mention of Guo Zong's name, not only did Gu's jaw move with murderous intent, but also the leaders of the other Hun tribes, and even Xiong, showed a trace of murderous intent in their eyes. .

In the eyes of all the leaders of the Xiongnu, if it weren't for Guo Zong's words, if it weren't for Guo Zong's infallible guarantee, how could the Huns lead the tribe to the south, and once again fought against the Qin Baiyan, which eventually led to the death of more than 6000 tribesmen of the Huns.

"Hang his head in the sheepfold, and throw his body to feed the wolves!"

On the fur-covered bed, Tou Manchanyu, who had been quiet all this time, finally spoke slowly.

And this opening, doomed Guo Yi's death.

When Guo Yi heard Touman Chanyu's words, his face became pale and bloodless from fright.

"You can't kill me, Shan Yu, you can't kill me, I am Guo Zong's clansman, Guo Zong will let Donghu and Yueshi avenge me! Shan Yu! You can't kill me!"

Guo Yi was really frightened and peed. Under his tied body, the crotch was full of wet spots, and a smell of urine emerged impressively.

Hearing Touman Chanyu's words, Gu Jai turned to look at Guo Yi, a native of the Central Plains, with a sneer on his face, then grabbed his messy hair and dragged him outside the tent.

Guo Yi begged for mercy and cried out for pain.

inside the tent.

Touman Shanyu opened his eyes in a daze, thinking about something.

"What about the sword?"

Touman Shanyu asked.

At this time, a woman who belonged to Touman Chanyu was kneeling on the ground, quietly got up, and in a corner of the tent, she took a wooden plate and came to Tou Manchanyu.

"Ahhhh!!!!"

Guo Yi's ferocious howl sounded outside the tent.

However, Touman Shanyu ignored it. With his head turned to the side, his eyes stared straight at the Qin sword without a scabbard on the wooden plate. The sharp blade was covered with a few gaps due to years of fighting. , but its sharp cold light still tells that countless people have died under its blade.

Seeing the somewhat twisted Qin character on the blade, Tou Manchanyu could see that although he didn't know the Qin character, those two characters, if there were no accidents, were Bai Yan.

Touman Shanyu closed his eyes, and all the events of this incident appeared in his mind, pictures one by one, Yishui news, Yanmen Mountain news, Pingcheng news, and then in the mountains, countless people from the Central Plains ambushed on both sides of the towering mountains, one by one. A person who is not afraid of death is like crazy.

And the whole process of his confrontation with Bai Yan!
"Put this sword on the wooden stand! No one is allowed to move it without my permission in the future!"

Touman Shanyu said softly.

Murto and the others didn't understand why Touman Chanyu didn't throw away the Qin general's sword, but chose to keep it, but seeing Touman Chanyu's woman holding the Qin sword in both hands and walking to the wooden frame, Murto It's not easy for others to ask.

Only Di Yan saw this scene, and saw that Qin put Bai Yan's saber on the wooden stand, turned his head to look at Man Chanyu with a weak face, closed eyes and rested his mind, a trace of worry appeared in his eyes.

In Di Xi's heart, if Touman Shanyu wants to look at this Qin sword every day, warn himself, remember these two fights, and plan for opportunities in the future, and then go south for revenge, that would be a good thing.

But if Touman Shanyu already has deep fear of Bai Yan, and every time he sees this sword, he has no intention of going south except to warn him, then that is definitely not a good thing.

at the moment.

With the worry in his heart, Di Yan didn't dare to say anything. He knew Touman Chanyu's temper. Before that, being stabbed and nailed to the ground by Bai Yan, the Qin general, was Touman Chanyu's most humiliating thing. As the leader of the tribe, If anyone in the tribe dares to mention that matter again in the future, Touman Shanyu will definitely kill him without hesitation, no matter who it is.

What's more, Xi Xi knew better that if the Central Plains people didn't know everywhere, the incident would spread from those Central Plains people in the future. Tou Man Shanyu would even maintain his dignity and order to kill everyone who knew about it.

Most likely, that would include him as well.

thought here.

He knew clearly that he must not mention that matter again, at least not by him. As for what happens to the tribe after the war, it depends on the news from Yuezhi and what happened to Yuezhi.
