At the end of the Han Dynasty: a stingy husband from his hometown

Chapter 291 When the bronze pillar is broken, the Pius people will be exterminated.
Shan army camp.

As the Shan soldiers became more and more arrogant and domineering, the conflicts with the Pyu soldiers and civilians in the city became more and more serious. This also made the Shan generals who joined the army feel vaguely uneasy.

He found the Shan general and said: "Since the Shang Kingdom has accepted the surrender of the Pyu Kingdom, it means that the Pyu Kingdom, like us, has become a vassal state of the Shang Kingdom."

"Previously, the military advisor under the governor of the capital had warned the general not to harass the people in the city after entering the city."

"If we indulge our soldiers so much now, will it make the Grand Governor dissatisfied?"

When the Shan general heard this, he smiled and said: "I thought too much about joining the army. We have done more things in the cities we conquered than we do now, and we also massacred several cities one after another, but it was nothing." .”

"The Grand Governor must have known about our actions in the city. If the Grand Governor was dissatisfied, he would have sent someone to dissuade us."

"Until now, no one has been sent by the Governor, which is equivalent to acquiescing to what we are doing."

"As for the military advisor's warning in the past, perhaps it was just a casual statement, unwilling to follow the truth. After all, Dachu, as a celestial country, attaches great importance to promises and etiquette."

Joining the army was slightly relieved after hearing this, but he still said with some worry: "There are still tens of thousands of Piao soldiers in the city. If they are completely angered, we may not be able to deal with it."

However, General Pyu sneered: "Those are just some newly recruited rabble, how can they be my opponent of [-] Shan elites?"

"What's more, there are [-] brave and skilled soldiers under the command of the governor in the city. How can they just sit back and watch Piao's rebellion?"

"I really hope they can raise an army to invade. Killing all these people when the time comes will also be conducive to our future rule of the Piao Kingdom!"

After joining the army, he said nothing more.

at the same time.

Those whose female relatives were harmed or robbed came to the government one after another crying, hoping that the government would make a decision for them.

The Piao soldiers were also filled with righteous indignation and hated the Shan soldiers deeply. They came to the palace in groups to ask for a battle.

Seeing that the time had come, General Fu Guo immediately sent someone to secretly send a letter to Fa Zheng, and then that night, he asked those who had entered the Shan army camp as servants to set fires everywhere at night.

For a time, the Shan army camp was filled with flames and chaos.

The general of the Fu State led three thousand cavalry and rushed into the Shan army camp at night, killing the Shan soldiers who had fallen into chaos and fleeing in confusion.

The Pyu soldiers, who had long hated the Shan army, ambush outside the Shan army camp in advance, and killed all the Shan soldiers who rushed out of the camp regardless of their identity as new recruits.

However, new soldiers are still new soldiers after all, and in the process of fighting, many Piao soldiers were killed and injured.

This battle lasted from night to early morning, and the Shan soldiers suffered heavy casualties despite deliberate calculations.

Until finally, all the soldiers desperately escorted the Shan general to break out of the encirclement, and then they came to the Han army camp in embarrassment to ask for help.

He fell to the ground and cried loudly: "Piao Guo broke his word, was capricious, raised his troops to rebel, and has already broken through our army camp, causing almost all of the general's subordinates to be killed or injured. Please ask the governor to make the decision for me!"

Xiang Hong, who was already wearing armor, looked at the Shan general with a cold look.

After the other party finished speaking, Xiang Hong immediately reprimanded: "Did I ask the military advisor to send you a message? After entering the city, you must stay safe and not harass the people?"

"During these days, you have been buying and selling in the city, raping, robbing, and committing all kinds of evil. This has made the country of Piao intolerable and led to this catastrophe!"

The general of the Shan State was agitated, and then he suddenly realized why the two sides had been fighting for most of the night, but no Han troops came to help.

The feeling was that the governor was angry at what he had done before, so he stood still.

He hurriedly knelt on the ground and sobbed: "It's me who failed to restrain the soldiers under my command. I would also like to ask the Governor to see that in recognition of our great contribution to the battle in the south, we, the Shan State, can rescue those Shan who are still trapped in the camp." Soldiers of the country!"

After saying this, the Shan general immediately kowtowed on the ground, and red blood soon appeared on his forehead.

After fighting for most of the night, although the Shan soldiers had almost suffered heavy casualties, more than [-] people stayed in the camp together and still resisted tenaciously.

The Shan general did not want all the [-] soldiers he brought out to be lost here.

Xiang Hong snorted coldly, walked to the door of the camp and looked at the sky, and then shouted sharply: "Send the order and follow me to the battle!"

"Tap Tap!"

Seven thousand Han and Barbarian troops, who had been waiting in formation for a long time, quickly rushed towards the direction of Shan Guoyingzhai.

At this time, the Piao soldiers had been fighting for most of the night and were exhausted.

There are still more than 2000 Shan soldiers in the camp. They are worthy of the title of Shan elite. Even though the commander has escaped, they are still holding on to one place, driven by a strong desire to survive.

No matter how the Piao soldiers attack, they will not be able to get in in a short time.

The general of the auxiliary country watched more and more of his subordinates suffer losses, and the morale of the soldiers gradually became low, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

"Ordered to withdraw the troops and surrounded and refused to attack the remaining Shan soldiers."

"Move in two hundred elephant soldiers, and we will kill all these Shan bandits today!"

As the ace cavalry of the Piao Kingdom, the elephant soldiers are also a symbol of the royal family. Generally speaking, they will not be allowed to enter the battlefield at all.

Swordsmen have no eyes, and although elephant soldiers are powerful, they may not be immune to damage.

For Piao, every elephant soldier killed in battle was considered a huge loss.

Therefore, the general of the auxiliary country is not willing to send these precious pimples unless it is absolutely necessary.

General Piao is also helpless now.

These newly recruited soldiers did have low combat effectiveness. Although they were sad and unintentional and had the advantage of strength, they fought for most of the night and still suffered heavy casualties.

General Fuguo believed that if it were the elite of the Pyu Kingdom that had been destroyed long ago, even if it only had 2 troops, the Piao army would have been wiped out by now, and the casualties would not be too many.

Nowadays, both the population and the number of young people in Piao Kingdom have decreased sharply. Piao Kingdom has no capital to continue to lose troops, so it sent out precious elephant soldiers.

"Tap Tap!"

Just as the generals under his command went to mobilize the elephant soldiers, the general of the auxiliary country suddenly felt the ground shaking slightly, and the sounds of chaotic footsteps gradually fell into his ears.

"The general is in trouble, the governor is coming with his troops to kill!"

The general of the auxiliary state was shocked when he heard this and asked hurriedly: "Have you ever killed my soldiers?"

Although the Pyu soldiers experienced a great victory, they also suffered heavy casualties. Moreover, after fighting for most of the night, the soldiers were sleepy and tired, and their combat effectiveness was worrying.

What's more, the Han army is already powerful, and the soldiers and civilians of Piao are already afraid of Han.

Even if they had not gone through this great battle, they might not have gained any benefit by using tens of thousands of newly recruited rabble-rousers to fight the [-] elite Han troops. The confidant general shook his head and said: "No, but it has blocked our way back."

After hearing this, the general of the auxiliary state was slightly relieved, and then hurried towards the direction of the Han army.

When he came to the place where the Han army was stationed, he shouted loudly from a distance: "Why did the governor lead his troops here?"

The general of the auxiliary state did not dare to go to the Han army's formation easily, and was also worried that Xiang Hong would betray his promise and suddenly have someone kill him.

"Tap Tap!"

As soon as the general of the Fu Kingdom finished speaking, he saw a man with a length of nine feet and a ferocious face, holding a square halberd and riding a horse. He was none other than the most powerful general of the Southern Barbarians, E Huan.

"The Grand Governor asked me to ask you, why did you lead your army to attack the Shan Army camp?"

Before the war horses came close, the general of the state of Fu heard E Huan's voice. He felt relieved and said to himself: "This must be the general of the Shan state asking for help from the Han army after breaking out of the encirclement. The governor can't hide his face, so he did it deliberately." Send someone to question me."

Thinking of this, the general of the auxiliary country immediately relaxed his vigilance and was ready to answer.

never thought.

Just when E Huan was approaching the general of the auxiliary state, he suddenly kicked the horse's belly with both feet. The horse under him suddenly accelerated its speed and ran directly towards the general of the auxiliary state.

Before the general of the auxiliary country could react, he only heard a thunderous voice blasting in the air: "The traitor has surrendered and rebelled again, and he will die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, E Huan had already rushed forward on horseback, waving the square halberd in his hand, and went straight to the general of the auxiliary country.

The general of the auxiliary country was horrified and hurriedly raised his gun to block.

However, in his haste, the general of the auxiliary country could not use all his strength.

What's more, as the first warrior of the Southern Barbarians, E Huan was so strong that even Yan Yan was defeated. At this time, he was calculating mentally but not intentionally, and relying on the power of the war horse, he was naturally invincible.

"Crack!"

E Huan cut off the weapon of the general of the state with a halberd, and then swept the halberd blade, and the huge head of the general of the state of the state immediately rose into the sky.

E Huan made a beautiful sideways turn on his horse and caught the head of the general of the auxiliary country with his left hand.

At this time, due to inertia, the war horses rushed into the Pyu Army formation, causing the Pyu soldiers to retreat in shock.

E Huan held the square halberd in his right hand, and while turning the horse's head, he beheaded several people in a row. No one in the Piao army could do it, and he beheaded the general of the Fugu army and returned it to his own formation.

After E Huan returned, he turned the horse's head again, then raised the head of the general of the auxiliary state high, and shouted sternly: "Piao people broke their promises, surrendered and rebelled again. I am ordered by the governor to behead the thief here!" "

"Everyone, please follow me to kill the enemy and punish those who break the promise!"

After finishing speaking, E Huan tied the head of the general of the Fuguo State to the war horse, and once again waved the square halberd to kill back the Piao State soldiers who were already full of fear.

"kill!"

The five thousand barbarian soldiers howled and charged forward, while the two thousand Han soldiers were unwilling to succumb to the others and rushed forward to kill them.

The more than two thousand Shan soldiers who were besieged in the camp heard the deafening shouts of killing outside and knew that reinforcements had arrived. They immediately gave up their defense and launched a full-scale counterattack to avenge the death of Paoze.

Under attack from two sides, the Pyu soldiers, who had long been exhausted, lost their commander, and lacked a training team, were immediately defeated and fled.

Xiang Hong did not intend to let them go. He ordered his soldiers to pursue the defeated troops throughout the city and kill all the people of Piao who encountered them.

This massacre lasted for three days.

As the capital of the Pyu Kingdom, the once extremely prosperous Biaiyai had turned into ruins after three days, with countless corpses buried in it.

The once-splendid royal palace and the residences of ministers were all looted, leaving nothing of value behind.

Even the Buddhist halls and temples were burned to the ground.

From then on, there was no Pyu country in the world.

However, after the capital of Pyu State was in ruins, Xiang Hong did not retreat, but continued to lead his troops southward until they reached the Indian Ocean. He only gave up after seeing the magnificent sea.

What Xiang Hong and Fazheng didn't expect was that they thought that they and others would be hated by the people of Piao after they massacred so many people.

However, the army did not encounter any resistance as they marched south. On the contrary, many Shan people knelt down to greet them, trembling with fear. There was only fear in their eyes and no hatred at all.

Fa Zheng became suspicious and asked many people for questioning, only to find out that because of their beliefs, the Piao people paid great attention to karma and sin. After encountering an enemy that was difficult to defeat, they would place their hopes on the gods, hoping to be protected by the gods. , and let the sinful enemies suffer divine punishment.

In the Piao Kingdom today, almost all the young and strong men were killed or injured, and the remaining people could not resist the powerful Han people and had no choice but to surrender.

After understanding the cause and effect of the incident, Fazheng couldn't help but sneer secretly. Rather than placing his hope on the gods, he believed in himself more.

On the beach, Xiang Hong looked at the boundless sea and couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect that the world is so big!"

Fa Zheng smiled and said: "Although the world is big, the Han Dynasty upholds its authority and leads all nations. All the people who are illuminated by the sun and moon are ministers and concubines!"

At this time, there was no saying "Everywhere the sun and the moon shine, and wherever the rivers reach, is Han". It was roughly a combination of several classic quotations from later generations.

What Fazheng said was a quote from Ban Biao, a historian of the Eastern Han Dynasty.

The so-called men are ministers and women are concubines. It seems that they are all Han natives, which shows their domineering side.

Hearing this, Xiang Hong couldn't help but smile and said: "The words of filial piety and uprightness are great virtues!"

Fazheng continued: "In the past, there were champions Hou Le Shi Yanran, Ma Fubo and Jiaozhi Zhu, and generals who opened up the territory for our great Chu. Why not imitate the sages and intimidate the Piao people?"

The allusion of champion Hou Le Shi Yanran is probably well-known to every household, but the story of Ma Fubo's Jiaozhi Pillar is rarely known.

During the Western Han Dynasty, General Fubo Ma Yuan went south to conquer Jiaozhi, put down the rebellion, and set up a copper pillar as the national boundary, with the six characters "If the copper pillar breaks, Jiaozhi will be destroyed" written on it.

General Ma Yuan used this to warn the local people that if they dared to break the copper pillars symbolizing the national boundary, they would be slaughtered.

Although the Vietnamese were angry, they did not dare to break the copper pillars. They could only vent their anger by throwing stones at the copper pillars. Over time, a mountain of stones was piled there.

Upon hearing this, Xiang Hong immediately followed Fa Zheng's suggestion and erected a huge copper pillar at the southernmost point near the sea.

It says: Chu State Boundary Monument.

The following is written: There are hundreds of barbarians in the world, and there is no kinship or alienation in the righteousness. Those who obey are rewarded, and those who rebel are punished. The effects of good and evil are the same as those of Huhan, Zhizhi, Nanyue King, and Piao King.

Today Xiang Hong, the governor of Nanzhong, erected a copper pillar here. When the copper pillar is broken, the Piao people will be exterminated!
