Hokyo cannot be left behind.
Yingkang had no choice but to lead the team to the north, at this time the breath of winter was getting stronger and stronger, and the cold wind blowing from Mobei was blowing on his face, and it hurt and hurt.
"Your Majesty, Dog Rong is a fast horse, can we catch up like this" Chen Xing not only asked.
"I can catch up."
Ying Kang said affirmatively: "At this time, the dog Rong snatched a lot of things and women from Hojing, they can't go fast, if nothing else, we will catch up with the dog Rong army near Shen Guo." ” At this time, Ying Kang's thinking became clearer and clearer, he knew that the dog army was fast and fast, and the war relied on speed, but once they brought women and looted things, their speed of action was much slower.
And because there are so many people all at once, it is necessary to eat and drink, and it is necessary to replenish food and drinking water on the way, etc.
Imagine which country would provide food and drinking water for Inurong to the north from Hokyo There is no choice but to Shen Guo, one is that Shen itself is an ally of the dog Rong, and it is precisely because of the strong invasion of the dog Rong that the once powerful Zhou royal family was eliminated, so that Shen Hou avenged the insult; The second is that due to the large-scale southward invasion of the dog Rong, almost all other countries in the northern part of Guanzhong have been harassed by the dog Rong, and many countries have perished, even if the dog Rong army returns north with the spoils of war, few countries can provide them with food and drinking water.
And Yingkang also thought that even if the dog army rushed to Shen State, Shenhou would not let them enter the city, after all, these barbarians from the north were not as disciplined as the Central Plains, as long as they entered the city, there was absolutely no way to restrain them, stealing chickens and touching dogs, causing trouble, burning, killing and looting, and so on, they would try all the bad things they could think of.
For the sake of his own safety, Yingkang thought that Shenhou would definitely keep the dog army out.
"Order the soldiers to hurry up and rush to Shenguo."
Ying Kang ordered Chen Xing.
"No" The soldiers of the Qin army hurried to Shen State.
It was another half of the day's fast horse galloping, and in the afternoon, Yingkang and the others rushed to the vicinity of Shenguo, which was about a hundred miles away from Hojing.
Along the way, there were ruins and decays, and the corpses of the people were all over the mountains, wild dogs, eagle vultures circled, and even the air was filled with an indescribable smell.
Hey, no wonder the ancients were so disgusted with war, and there will be abhorrence of war in many poems, as the so-called: since Huma peeped into the river, the waste pond arbor, still tired of talking about soldiers.
Seeing such an afterimage, everyone will cherish this hard-won peaceful life.
Sigh and sigh, the current matter must be grasped well, after all, he has this little bit of soldiers and horses, and his opponent Dog Rong has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, if you want to snatch the legendary beauty back from the hands of Dog Rong, there is no other way than to use stratagem.
"Your Majesty, what is the matter with us chasing the dog Rong all the way, besides, even if we catch up with the dog Rong, there is no way to fight against them" After chasing for so long, Ying Kang never told Chen Xing and the others his true purpose, and now Chen Xing finally couldn't help it, so he had to ask.
"The dog has no way, not only slaughtered the people in Guanzhong, burned down the houses, but also robbed so many women.
We are royal officials, and even more so the people of Guanzhong, how can we watch Rong Di snatch the women in Guanzhong to the northern region and ravage them?
Only then did Ying Kang say what he thought.
Snatch back the Guanzhong woman who was taken away by the dog Rong With more than a hundred Qin army soldiers Chen Xing shook his head and said, "Your Excellency's idea is good, but it is difficult for us to take back so many robbed women from the hands of Dog Rong alone."
However, if we send an army to take people from the dogs, it will definitely cause the dogs to retaliate against us. ” What Chen Xing said was exactly what Ying Kang was worried about, he didn't know how powerful the current dog Rong was, and he also knew that if the Qin army was all dispatched to take people from the hands of the dog Rong, it would inevitably cause a war between the two sides.
Once the war starts, all the Qin people's efforts in Guanzhong over the years will be reduced to ashes.
For the safety of the Qin people, and in order to be able to recapture Bao Xi and other Guanzhong women from the hands of the dog Rong, he decided to personally lead a small number of soldiers and horses to "steal" Bao Xi and some women from the hands of the dog Rong.
The word "steal" could not be more appropriate here.
The so-called "stealing" is to take a part of someone's things without someone else's knowledge.
At the moment, the measure taken by Yingkang was to prepare to secretly take away Bao Xi and some of the women who were robbed by them without the knowledge of Dog Rong.
The place of Shenguo is still a very good place, the south is the Wei Plain, the land is fertile, and the north is a mountainous area called Yehe Mountain, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack.
At this time, the army of the dog Rong had already arrived under the city of Shen with their booty.
"King, we have been walking for several days, and the soldiers do not have much food with them, plus they have robbed so many Guanzhong women, and the food is already in short supply, or we will replenish some food and items in the Shen Kingdom in front."
Zuo General Bao Ding reported to the Dog Rong King Huo Yunyu.
Shen Guo This is already the territory of Shen Guo Huoyun Zongma stared at the city not far away, Shenguo Shenhou hummed, if it weren't for you, a guy who betrayed your sect master for glory, how could I have such a rich spoils today Although Dog Rong occupied Hojing with the help of Shen Hou, in the eyes of Dog Rong King Huoyun, Shen Hou was just a villain who sold for glory, and people still looked down on these people in their hearts.
On the contrary, Huoyun, the king of Inurong, was full of reverence for the royal family master Sima Zhonggeng, who fought to the death with him under the pickaxe capital.
"Okay, you go to the city and let Shenhou come to see me."
Huoyun commanded to Po Ding.
"Nuo" then said with a lot of mouth: "Did the king ask Shenhou to go out of the city to meet you, instead of letting him open the city to meet us?"
In Xiao Ding's opinion, it is precisely because of the help of the dog Rong that Shen Hou avenged his hatred, and now that the dog Rong army has come to the city of Shen State, Shen Hou should open the city to welcome the arrival of the king of Huoyun, instead of going out of the city to meet his own king.
Huoyun shook his head, "No, let's let him go out of the city and come to this king."
We have tens of thousands of troops, and so many booty, Shen Guo is such a big city, how can we tolerate it, besides, once our army enters the city, it will inevitably harass the people in the city, and this king can't bear it. ” A king of Rong Di actually remembered for the country of Guanzhong at this time, which is really a big joke.
"How could the king have mercy on these people, these people have been our enemies for hundreds of years" For the king's compassionate statement, Xiao Ding was surprised.
Huoyun smiled, "It's not that I pity these people in Guanzhong, but think about ourselves again, you think about these people in Guanzhong are like our cattle and sheep, if we kill them all, what will we eat in the future, what will we use, who will spin and weave for us, if there are no people, do we still have something to rob, this is like fishing in the water, grazing in the mountains, we have to leave some seeds for ourselves, and there will be something to grab in the future." ” When he heard this, he once again felt that his king was wise, "The king is wise, and the last general is stupid and didn't guess the king's original intention for the sake of the long term." ” After that, the horse marched forward and came to the city of Shenguo
