The Yanran Mountain Range is very long, stretching for 800 miles on the Xiongnu grassland, and its remaining vein in the southeast is called "Suevil Wuyanran Mountain".Not far to the south is the desert, and in the southwest of it can be faintly seen the water and Junji Mountain, which is the only way to return to the Han land from the hinterland of the Xiongnu.It became the place where the Han-Hun battles broke out frequently, which was the place of Shi Yanran in the post-Han Dynasty in history, and also the place where the entire army of Li Guangli of the former Han Dynasty was annihilated.More than 20 years ago, the old battlefield was a wide grassland, and the vegetation grew more vigorously than elsewhere, and it could only be seen casually when passing by, and half of the white bones were buried in the bushes.Zhao Chongguo and Ren Hong arrived here all the way after Yu Wushui separated, and they also went down to take a look when they passed by the old battlefield.In the battle of Yanran Mountain in the fourth year of Zhenghe, the 70,000 cavalry of the Han army were wiped out, and Li Guangli, the old boss of Zhao Chongguo, also surrendered to the Xiongnu.On the night of the decisive battle, Shan Yujun dug a trench several feet deep in front of the Han army, and attacked it sharply from behind, and still can find the deep ravine.Zhao Chongguo didn't have much memory of Li Guangli, but he just thought that there were still many of his robe brothers in the army at that time, so he might have died here.One of his friends was the second generation of the Marquis of Xuqu, although he was a descendant of the Huns, but he was loyal to the Han Dynasty, and it is said that in that battle, he suspected that Li Guangli had different intentions, and wanted to cling to it and was beheaded by the second division.There are many old comrades-in-arms of Zhao Chongguo who still read their names, they survived the battle of the East Tianshan Mountains in the second year of the Tianhan Dynasty, but they died here, and the bones that nourished the grass and trees may be theirs, but it is a pity that the armor and clothes have been stripped away by the Huns one after another, and the flesh and blood are cheaper than the wild wolves and vultures, and they can no longer be identified.Zhao Chongguo asked the soldiers to pick up some when they camped and put them on the car, and buried them after they were transported back to Han.Witnessing the tragedy of this old battlefield, Zhao Chongguo couldn't help but think of Ren Hong who went west to Yanran Pass, they went south to this point, and also met the Hexi scouts who lived in Yansai for thousands of miles, and continued to look for the army north after crossing the desert, only then did they learn that the right Xian King surrendered to the Han Dynasty, did not send troops to help Shan Yu, and Fu Jiezi's army also marched east."
The old man really missed it."
Zhao Chongguo touched the red money in his arms, but he couldn't help but worry about Ren Hong and Fu Jiezi, the two of them encountered Shan Yujun at the same time.Xin Qingji and Su Tongguo under him came to ask for a joint battle in the north, but most of the war horses of Zhao Chongguo's army were evenly given to Ren Hong, and most of them almost became infantry, Zhang Pengzu and others hoped to go south to rest and replenish, even if Ren Hong was defeated, they could also respond, and now it is the brothers who go up the mountain to work hard, why bother to work hard to die?
When the captains were arguing, Zhao Chongguo, who was walking on the old battlefield, seemed to have kicked something, made a sound of gold and stone, lowered his body and bent his waist when he picked it up, and the old general grinned in pain.At first glance, it was a five-baht coin, or a red piece that had stopped casting, the red copper was Guo, and the money was blue, probably a relic of a certain soldier, who escaped the search of the Huns, and was in the deserted grass of the battlefield for more than 20 years.Zhao Chongguo put it away: "Twenty years ago, the soldiers couldn't go home. ”"But this time, the three armies that went out of the fortress had to be returned with all armor, and even if they died in battle, they had to return with honor after victory."
He summoned the captains and ordered: "The colonels will be stationed with me between Guershui and Yanran Mountains, waiting for the Marquis of Xi'an and the Marquis of Yiyang to go south. ”The names of two more people were named: "Xinyang Hou Qingji, Xiyuan Zuo Lieutenant Tongguo!"
”The two of them came out as promised, Xinyang Hou Xin Qingji was responsible for leading the Liangzhou cavalry, many of them were the old subordinates of the Western Liang Army of Ren Hong, and Su Tongguo would rest the slaughter cavalry, which was the most capable of fighting and the deepest degree of sinicization of a subordinate country from the horse, from the Wei Huo era to the present, repeatedly made military exploits.These two people are the most looking forward to supporting Ren Hong, Xin Qing is also a brave general, and Su Tongguo was in the Xiongnu when he was young and was familiar with the environment.And now, Zhao Chongguo loosened the rope around their necks and let the two horsemen gallop north with 20,000 cavalry."
Go!
Don't embarrass the old man!
”Three days later, at the northernmost end of Yanran Mountain, in the upper reaches of Zhiju Shui, the long river bends and bends in the grassland, and 30,000 households from Shan Yuting are scattered and resting at the water's edge.The tent was stranded at the pass for several days, and after the Xiongnu army was unable to break through the camel city, it turned north, and Da Danyu did not have the patience to let the tent gather and walk, but let them disperse as a tribe to act.So more than 100,000 people, driving millions of livestock, walked everywhere for more than 100 miles, and many tribes violated Da Danyu's orders, stopped and even began to walk back.The new owner of Milanda, a thousand cavalry commanders, was loyal to Shan Yu, and always led his small tribe to follow Shan Yu's large army, but after trekking for so long, with the horses getting sick and the troops tired, they gradually fell behind, and they had fallen dozens of miles behind Shan Yu, only barely walking in front of the broken Wuyi Duwei more than 10,000 horses.The whip of the thousand horsemen was drawn louder, the horses died, and the cattle were frightened and ran away a lot during the migration, so they couldn't use sheep to pull it, he ordered a few slaves to drag the cart, but he was reluctant to throw all kinds of items that he didn't know how to save for several generations, most of them were utensils that his grandfather and father snatched from the Yueshi, the Western Regions, and the Han Land, and they were very light, but when they were piled together, they made Milanda feel extremely heavy, and there were deep blood marks on his shoulders, which hurt his heart.Fortunately, at night, other slaves belonging to the same master would come to take care of him, and a male slave in his twenties, who called himself "the queen of the Han people", would put some chewed grass on him, saying that it was medicine."
Where are you going to take the tribe with you?"
Not only the slaves were frightened, but the nobles were also at a loss, but they didn't dare to stop, listening to the subordinates of the Wuyi Lieutenant who was pressing the formation behind them, the scouts of the Han army had caught up with them, and there were some sporadic encounters.At dawn on this day, after another day's journey, after seeing the end of Yanran Mountain, the commander of the thousand horsemen finally kindly let everyone rest for a while, when the slaves were sleeping soundly, they heard a loud shout, and Milantuo They got up next to the herd to see that there were messy tents everywhere, shouting that the Han army was coming!
The commander of the thousand horsemen took his wife and children to his horse and resolutely evacuated with a few soldiers, leaving all the slaves and livestock behind.Before the slaves could celebrate their freedom, they saw the horses' hooves in the rear, and the team of the Ukrainian lieutenant retreated northward in disarray, the formation was scattered, and many of them were still wounded, and they looked back in horror as they ran, apparently losing the battle with the Han army's advance.Now the ineffective felling was even more chaotic, and people, horses, cows, and sheep were running around in a mess, huddled together.A little girl with pigtails was crying in place, almost knocked down and trampled to death by a Hun rider, but it was Milanto who saved him.Before he knew it, there were several children gathered around him.After the two or three thousand horsemen had run away, Milanda and the slaves who had been thrown by their masters got up in a daze, only to see a faint dust rising from the south, apparently a large group of men and horses marching.Some people want to drive the herd to avoid disaster, for fear of being killed by the Han army, in the story of the Hun campfire, the Han army is the embodiment of evil and ferocity.However, the slave who helped Milantuo to apply medicine stopped them, claiming that his father was a Han soldier who was captured by the Xiongnu more than 20 years ago, and taught him that if he met Wang Shi coming from the north, as long as he did so, he could tell the Han army that he was his own person.He knelt on the spot, stretched out his hands, and put his right palm on his left palm, and made a gesture, and made everyone kneel on the ground and perform the bow of the head.Milantuo also knelt on the ground with the three or four Hun children in his arms, pressed his head tightly against the grass, and felt the tremor of the land.This posture is very similar to the story of the Buddha's birth, the Buddha saw the mud on the ground, and could not bear to burn the lamp The ancient Buddha walked barefoot, so he untied his hair bun, spread his hair in the mud, and let the Buddha step on it.But what passed in front of them was not the ancient Buddha, but a knight riding the Han army.A four-legged horse with "iron boots" stopped in front of this group of kneeling men begging for mercy, and the hooves under their feet kicked the turf impatiently, and if it stepped on it, I am afraid that my heart would be broken, right?
Probably noticing the Han Er slave behavior, the rider asked him his identity in a thick Bingzhou dialect, and Han Er answered truthfully, and shouted a few words such as treating Wang Shi for a long time, and was let go and let them hide away.After walking hundreds of steps back, everyone found that the smoke and dust in the south were thicker, and the Han army's forward force had arrived, so in order not to be killed by mistake, they could only kneel down again.Iron hooves similar to Fang Cai passed by one by one, more and more frequently, and Milanto glanced up slightly, and saw a pair of shoes on the stirrups, and the vigorous thighs were firmly sitting on the high saddle of the buttocks, and they were tossed and turned as they went.This may be the reason why the Han army was able to drive more than a thousand miles after leaving Shan Yuting and quickly catch up with Shan Yu's large army?
After a moment of Han army forward, a large army also arrived here, and Milando's eyes were attracted by the big banner of "Ren" in the distance.This familiar banner is true, it was seen by him when he was in Khotan seven years ago and visited Ren Hong, the capital of Anxi, with his master.Ren Hong swore that he would send him to the east, and Milantuo was also full of longing for that legendary great country, but it turned out to be thrown to the Xiongnu in the northeast and suffered.Earlier, there were some complaints and resentment, but now they are completely gone, and even Ren Hong's motive for doing so is no longer curious.He looked at the Hun children who were protected by him, and the Hun slaves who kept chanting the blessings of the Buddha in their mouths, and Milantuo was even more convinced that all this was doomed, but he was just pushed by Ren Hong's hand."
This is my karma and my cause and effect."
But his compassionate gaze still moved with General Ren's banner, watching the boundless Han army's iron cavalry march north, the reflective steel knife and the dark iron armor were like a torrent of steel, but the flow speed was getting slower and slower, and finally stopped at Zhiju Shuinan.The Huns' tents were slaughtered or scattered, and after they dispersed like panicked sheep, the eagle feathers of the Huns' Da Danyu also appeared north of Zhijushui!"
Is it Ren Hong's banner?"
After being confirmed by the Captain of Wuyi, the Void Quan Qu Shan couldn't help but smile bitterly.Anxi Shuangbi, Fu Jiezi and Ren Hong, all called themselves bumped into him, it was the other party who came to bump into him.Although the main force of the Xiongnu was dragged down by the herd tent and walked very slowly, the Han army pursued too quickly, at least two days earlier than he expected, and it seemed that it was too late to join his son Zhizhi.At this time, it is unwise to hand over the back to the enemy, Xulu Quanqu Shan Yu decided to let more than 80,000 horsemen turn around, and lined up in Zhiju Shuibei, he recruited a convoy dragging his own golden horde, pulled by six horses or six mules, and Shan Yu's Yan clan had a cart per person, and it was also loaded with the treasures of the Xiongnu.Xulu Quanqu asked his favorite Da Yan clan, who is also the mother of Huhan Evil, to help him put on the turquoise golden eagle crown, hang the ancestral treasure knife path on the sheath, and give her two things.One is a gold-plated human head bowl, which is a drinking vessel made by the old Shangshan Yu in the head of the king of the Yue clan, whose status is comparable to the jade seal of the Han Dynasty, and each generation of Shan Yu has to drink blood wine with this thing when he succeeds to the throne.There is also the "Kinliuqiu", which is used with the skull bowl, which is a small dagger of pure gold and is used to scratch wine.He remembered the bloody dream last night, and today the Han army really chased after him, and he felt that he had to plan for the worst.Xulu Quanqu Shan Yu let the Da Yan clan take the tent, escorted by her father's right general, and the wife of the predecessor Shan Yu, the Zhuan Qu Yan clan and others bypassed the northernmost point of Yanran Mountain and walked westward to meet the Zhi Zhi who came over.The tall wheels moved slowly, and the eyes of the Qu Yan clan stared jealously at the head of the Yue clan and Jin Liuli who were holding in the arms of the Da Yan clan, first in the times, these were originally kept by her, and she began to think in her heart, how to take these heirloom treasures and meet her mistress King Youxian?
At this time, with the sound of the horse's hooves, Xulu Quanqu Shan Yu chased after him, he rode a white horse full of gold ornaments, jogged beside the car of the Great Clan, stretched out his right arm to hold his wife's hand, and in her reluctant cry, he said loudly: "Da Yanshi, give these two treasures to Hutu Wusi." ”"Tell him if I die."
The couple's hands were released, and Shan Yu fell behind the car, and the sound was extremely distant."
He is the thirteenth generation of the plough Gu Tu Da Dan Yu!"
