Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 316
Meng Tian stood on a piece of scorched earth with a dignified expression!
This time, during the contest on the west road, Meng Tian rarely felt that he had met an opponent, first he feinted an attack in the clouds, then bypassed the Yin Mountain, and went south from Jiuyuan.

This series of movements is like art. If Meng Tian hadn't been through battles for a long time and experienced, he might really suffer a lot this time.

Although it didn't cause much damage, and Meng Tian was able to successfully block it back, but it was not easy to find a loophole in such a well-prepared Qin army's defense line!

"General, after the barbarians looted this time, they threw the corpses of livestock into wells and rivers, and my subordinates have ordered people to salvage them as best they can."

Meng Tian's eyes were fixed, and he thought to himself: "The barbarians are very ruthless."

The Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period have been fought for hundreds of years. In these hundreds of years of war, at the beginning, they were an upright army. Before starting the war, they had to inform the opponent that the enemy would never attack if they did not clean up their troops. Now it has transformed into a victory in the war. , do everything you can.

Even for the direction of the final war, killing and surrendering is not hesitating!

With such frequent wars, it is inevitable that a large number of people will die, and the corpses will have time to be disposed of in the future, which will eventually lead to the occurrence of the plague.

So at the end, everyone has learned it!In order to avoid unnecessary losses, it is an essential measure to clean up the corpses after the war.

The act of throwing dead bodies into water sources is, in Meng Tian's view, a very vicious act.

The reason why the Hu people did this was that they wanted to pollute the water source, which would cause the Qin army to be infected on a large scale, and eventually reduce the Qin army's combat effectiveness.

It's just that many people don't understand this situation, but it has already been popularized in the military.

And the pamphlet in Xia Wuju's hand also has a detailed explanation on this, and it is very clear about how to deal with this matter.

Meng Tian said in a deep voice: "All the dead bodies that were salvaged were burned. I warned the people not to drink the polluted water in the past few days. If there is no water to drink, they can dig a well on the spot."

At this time, Meng Tian also saw Xia Wuqie coming here, and hurriedly cupped his hands in salute, and said: "The Imperial Physician Order, I will trouble you to keep an eye on this place!"

"This is the duty of an old man." Xia Wuqi was also very modest, and began to lead a few of his apprentices to explore the water source.

Meng Tian nodded, obviously at this time handing it over to Xia Wuqi, Meng Tian was very relieved, as the Imperial Physician Order of the Great Qin Dynasty, his medical skills were naturally outstanding in this world, and he even saved the First Emperor with a medicine bag, his loyalty is beyond doubt.

"Reporting to General Qi, General Wang Li came to report, and the son went out to find the main force of the Hu people and wait for the opportunity to make a surprise attack."

"What?" Meng Tian couldn't stand up all of a sudden, even if he didn't elaborate on the stakes of this matter, Meng Tian still understood it in his heart.

Moreover, Fusu was the only young master supported by the Meng family all along. This was naturally due to the little love between the Meng family and relatives from Chu.

Now, the situation in the court is unpredictable. If something happens to Fusu at this time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Meng Tian suppressed his emotions and forced himself to calm down. After a while, Meng Tian said: "Send a letter to Wang Li immediately, asking him to do his best to ensure the logistics supply of the young master without delay."

Meng Tian naturally knew that it was the first time for the Qin army to go out of the fortress, and it was also a great challenge to the logistics supply.

But no matter what, when things have developed to this point, they can only bite the bullet and continue.

Meng Tian also knew that since Fusu decided to go out and failed to achieve the expected goal, he would never return easily, so the only option left was to fully support him.

Moreover, since it has already left the fortress, there is naturally no reason to return.The so-called opening without turning back, if you come back at this moment, aren't you afraid that the Hu people will learn the truth of the Qin army and then encircle and suppress it?

You must know that on the grassland, that is the home field of the Hu people, and there is also a huge difference in the number of the two armies. If you are a little careless, it will really destroy the Qin army that is out of the fortress.

"Also tell Wang Li that I will rush to Shanggu County immediately."

As the commander-in-chief of the 30 Qin army, he naturally shouldered the primary responsibility. Therefore, Meng Tian also decided to go to Shanggu County.

………………

In the big tent of the Hu people, large pieces of beef and mutton are stewed in a huge bronze cauldron, and the aroma permeates the big tent, making people salivate.

The fire licked the huge bronze cauldron, watching the boiling hot soup in the huge cauldron, all the barbarians in the tent laughed heartily.

"Don't tell me, this thing that was snatched from the people of Qin is really useful!" King Donghu, who was sitting on the main seat, smelled the fragrance and couldn't help laughing.

It is impossible for the barbarians to make this huge bronze cauldron by themselves. It should be known that some tribes were still in the stone age at this time, and the arrowheads used were still made of bones, and the ax was just a sharp stone tied to a wooden stick.

And Daqin, which has already reached the peak of bronze technology, naturally has enough power to supply the people of Qin to use bronze utensils.

Even the current iron wares have developed impressively, but they can't reach the scale of bronze for the time being, but they have begun to be gradually applied in the military.

Just like horseshoes and stirrups are all made of fine iron collected by the Shaofu to ensure their quality.

"It would be great if I could come here once a year!" Someone in the account thought about the aroma of stewed beef and sheep.

Seeing someone talking about this, Dong Hu Wang said: "This time we can return to the grassland, it is dangerous and dangerous, if Tou Man Shanyu hadn't reminded us in time, we might really be blocked in the Great Wall by that old fellow Wang Li gone."

"If that's the case, it's also a loss of my Donghu's two thousand riders." Speaking of this, Donghu King couldn't help but feel lingering, and he was afraid for a while.

Two thousand riders were scattered by the Qin army led by Wang Li!
Although some soldiers and horses were gathered later, these two ten thousand cavalry were no longer complete. It was foreseeable that for a long period of time, these two ten thousand cavalry generals would not have much combat capability.

Thinking of this, King Donghu felt a burst of heartache!
Touman's complexion was as usual, and he was even more dependent on Ba Xiulie in his heart. If it wasn't for the last moment, Ba Xiulie clarified his interests and told the main force of the Qin army that they were just around the corner, and they might have to stay in Juyang for a while.

And at that time, once blocked by Wang Li, the consequences would be disastrous!
Thinking of Ba Xiulie's continuous strategies since this journey, Touman became more and more dependent on Ba Xiulie, and also vowed that after returning, he would also learn those things from the Qin people.

After Ba Xiulie came back from Qin, his temperament changed drastically. It seemed that his mind was much brighter than before, and the many opinions he put forward were very helpful to him.

"King Donghu, don't talk about these things anymore!" Touman raised the bronze title in his hand, and said: "What we do is for our descendants, for the inheritance of the tribe, and their heroic spirits will be blessed by the heavens." .”

King Donghu also raised the bronze jue in his hand, and had a drink with Touman.

"Pass down the order, order the warriors to drink to their heart's content, and celebrate this great victory!"

Seeing Donghu King's order, Touman also said: "Such a great victory should be celebrated, and the order will be passed on. My Hun tribe is willing to celebrate with Donghu."

Ba Xiulie showed hesitation on his face, and he walked to Touman's side to say something, but was stopped by the complacent Touman.

"Just say what you want to say, what can't you say here?"

Ba Xiulie was helpless, and said: "King Donghu, it seems a little inappropriate to do so!"

"If someone takes the opportunity to attack at night, how will our army respond?"

"Night attack?" Everyone laughed when they heard these two words.

Dong Hu Wang said: "Touman Chanyu, you slave must be too careful!"

"Now that we have returned to the grassland, who will sneak attack us? Who can find us in this vast grassland?"

"Is it Qin Jun?"

"The Qin army had no choice but to overtake us in the pass. Now that we have arrived in this grassland, if the Qin army really invades, it will be just a piece of fat delivered to our mouths!"

King Donghu was full of ambition, and he didn't believe anything Ba Xiulie said.

"Retire." After being joked by King Donghu's words, Tou Mandun felt that Ba Xiulie had made him lose face and made Donghu look down on the Huns.

Seeing this, Ba Xiulie had no choice but to withdraw from the account.

Seeing this, everyone didn't take it seriously, and immediately raised their wine glasses, biting the stewed beef and mutton in the cauldron.

When the wine was half drunk, Di Wen stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I have found two very beautiful women in the past two days, their skin is as smooth as water, and they can sing and dance, I wonder if Your Majesty is interested? "

Upon hearing this, King Donghu's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "Where is it?"

Di Wen clapped his hands, and suddenly several women walked in from outside the tent, and started dancing to cheer everyone up.

King Donghu stood up slowly, looking at the wonderful figures of the women in front of him, he couldn't help being fascinated by it, and rushed towards the dancing girl with a wine bottle in his hand.

Originally, these dancers were coerced by Di Wen to come to the big tent to add to the fun, so they were a little bit reluctant, but at this time, Donghu King's actions made the faces of several women pale with fright. .

The faces of the people who saw this scene on the side showed excitement, while Di Wen was sitting on the sidelines watching, without the slightest evasion in his eyes, just like the barbarians on the side.

Ba Xiulie could not help shaking his head when he heard the crying of the woman inside.

But it happened to be a victory, so indulgent, so and so, it is really hard to become a master!

However, Ba Xiulie didn't realize that since Modu accepted his allegiance that day, Ba Xiulie intentionally or unintentionally compared the nobles he had seen with Modu, and invisibly overstated his own requirements. of many.

Such and such, it seems that he is out of tune with the crowd. You need to know that the original Baxiu Lie will definitely not say these disappointing words at this time. Even if he knows, he will put it in his stomach, never speak out.

With a cry of helplessness in his heart, he immediately began to count the scouts sent out.

The scouts on the grassland are the ears and eyes of the army. All the information about the movement of the army must be obtained through the scouts.

Therefore, reconnaissance is of vital significance to the grassland tribes, and the rider who can serve as reconnaissance must be one of the best in a hundred.

Among them, there are even some eagle shooters who hold such a position.

Whenever you encounter such a single rider on the grassland, most of them are scouts from the army.

At the end of the count, Ba Xiulie suddenly found that three or four scouts had not returned to the team at the agreed time. Although he was puzzled, he didn't think there was anything wrong.

In the vast prairie, getting lost is a normal operation, even some old hunters often get lost on the prairie.

So I didn't return to the team according to the time, I guess something happened.

However, just to be on the safe side, Baxiulie sent out a few scouts again to spy on the army in a radius of hundreds of miles.

…………

"My lord, I grabbed two tongues." Ji Ying escorted the two of them to Fusu.

Looking at the familiar face in front of him, Fusu felt very relieved. A young man in Yunyangli back then, he had already started to make great achievements on the battlefield.

Fusu also heard from Yingbo that Ji Ying's military training results and hard work were among the best.

Thinking of the old man who lost his two sons and now only has his third son, Ji Ying, Fu Su is filled with emotion.

Fusu waved his hand slightly, and immediately, four or five people stood up and escorted the two Huns to the back for interrogation.

Fusu's new army did not understand the language of the Xiongnu, but there was no shortage of such talents in the Meng family's army. After dealing with the Huns for so many years, some people naturally began to think about each other.

And after getting the information from the mouths of the two Huns, Fusu didn't doubt the methods of those military judges at all. It didn't take a while for the trainees to spit out all the things hidden in their stomachs.

These people know how to make the person under torture feel the greatest pain without dying. It can be said that interrogation is also an art!
After a while, a person came from behind the army formation and handed some blank papers to Fusu. Fusu raised his brows and thought to himself: "This is too fast!"

Putting aside this distracting thought, Fu Su carefully browsed the handwriting on the white paper, and at the end of the reading, Fu Su showed excitement on his face.

After so many days of hard work, I have finally seen the rewards, and the dawn of victory is just around the corner!
How could Fusu not be happy? You must know that they are now less than [-] miles away from the Hu people. For the unfettered Qin army with one man, two horses, or even three horses, seventy miles is only half a day.

However, Fusu was still a little worried, and asked, "Is what these two people said credible according to your judgment?"

The interrogating military judges looked at each other and nodded in affirmation.
Fu Su looked at Ji Ying and said with a smile, "If you win this battle, Ji Ying, you have made a great contribution!"

Seeing what Fusu said, Ji Ying rubbed his head, a little confused, but seeing Fusu's happy face, he knew that the two captives he brought back had played an extremely important role.
