About 270 miles west of Alin, at the junction of Yulin and Hepu counties, there is a flat and open basin surrounded by mountains and the middle. Because the Zhenlong Mountain Range is separated from Yulin County, Bushan and other counties to the north, although it belongs to Yulin County in the Han family's books, it actually looks like an independent block.
When the Han Dynasty was prosperous, Anguang County was established here, but Anguang County was abandoned in just over 40 years. Now this large slope among the mountains and the vast basement are completely controlled by the so-called Six Tribes of the Southern Yi, namely the Daqi Realm, Xiaoqi Realm, Shipu, Xu Lang, Qudu and Ganlu, driven by the Linyi Kingdom.
In the southeast corner of the basin, there is turbulent water flowing slowly from west to east. If you go up the river for about five miles, you can see that the river water has whirled half a rugged slope. The cliffs on both sides of the bank restrict the river channel to a narrow limit, and the turbulent water flow gradually erodes the river bank, making it steeper. At the top of the cliff is a platform where the king of Linyi Qu Kui and his personal army brigade stationed here.
The platform is surrounded by water on three sides, but the top terrain is wide enough to accommodate thousands of people. There is a naturally formed ramp on the east side of the platform, which can be continued to go east and incorporated into the official road that is still in use despite being disrepair.
Of course, Linyi State did not take it seriously for thousands of soldiers here.
From Dianchong City to here, you have to cross mountains and wading along the way, which is a total of 2,200 miles away. Even if the Linyi District clan is well aware of the internal information of Jiaozhou and masters many small paths and short roads, it is very hard and the cost is even greater. Moreover, the situation of the countries south of Linyi is not stable now, so you must leave enough manpower to suppress it.
So at this time, Qu Kui himself and his elite guards were two thousand, equipped with forty war horses and fifty war elephants.
In terms of this strength alone, Linyi State did not actually have a great advantage over the local forces in southern Jiaozhou. In addition to the six tribes of the Southern Yi, there were at least twenty or thirty masters of the Han family in southern Jiaozhou. They gathered together to resist Linyi. However, the local forces in Jiaozhou themselves were also full of contradictions and it was difficult to reconcile. Instead, Linyi State turned its back on the enemy and put them together, gradually increasing the intensity of the confrontation with the Han army in Cangwu County.
On this day, Qu Kui was panicked and woke up very early. Then, servants and maids came up to wear pearls, golden locks, etc. for him. When Qu Kui was young, he followed his father as a county official in Xianglin County and went in and out of the county and the county, and saw the atmosphere of the Han family. So he actually felt that this kind of barbarian dress was a bit ridiculous.
But he had to dress up like this. When Zhao Tuo, as the deputy commander of the 500,000 army that Qin Shihuang pacified Nanyue, wanted to gain a foothold in Nanyue, he had to cling to himself and claim to be a master of barbarians and was in charge of Xiou, Luo, and the king of Yue. How could Qu Kui be exception?
After all, if you want to use the clothes of the Han family, you have to recognize the Han system. The court said, "Are you under the world the king's land?" Do you listen? It's better to recognize yourself as a barbarian and lead the Baiyue and the Han family equally.
He could only wait patiently and wait for people to hang various gold and silver objects on his robe one by one. When he finally got up, his whole body jingled and jingled.
A maid stood on tiptoe and sorted out the two necklaces on Qu Kui's forehead, but suddenly Qu Kui raised his hand and pushed it away.
The maid exclaimed and trembled continuously.
Qu Kui ignored him, strode forward suddenly, pointed to the mountain road to the east and shouted: "Someone is coming!"
Sure enough, on the mountain road, several people were rolling and crawling.
The man in the head was fat, and from a distance, he looked like a ball of flesh. He was originally wearing armor, but it was broken at this time, and the ribbons were loose. Several armor leaves were dragged on the ground and bumped. His left arm was softly hanging beside him, and he swayed unnaturally as he walked forward, like a dead snake.
Qu Kui jumped up and shouted sternly: "Isn't this the king of Xu Lang Kingdom? Go and bring them! Quick! Quick!"
The Six Southern Yi tribes were tribes in the eyes of the Jiaozhou Central Committee, and under the system of Linyi Kingdom, they were small countries affiliated with each other. Therefore, Qu Kui called him the king of the country. A few days ago, the Six Southern Yi tribes gathered troops under Qu Kui's nose, sending troops, and attacked Alin with great momentum, taking on their responsibilities as vassals. At this moment, the inquirer had not yet arrived, but the leader of Xu Lang tribe returned in a mess with a few people... something big must have happened on the front line.
After a while, the entire camp started to move violently.
Dozens or hundreds of noble men holding leather whips ran around, whipping around, and shouted: "Run! Move! Get rid of your house!"
Amid their calls, tents were pushed down, and war horses and war elephants were also neighing and being led out. Most of the war horses were hors from Yunnan, but the elephants were elephants. In their actions, their thick limbs stepped on the ground, stirring up smoke and dust, which was very majestic.
The servants and maids continued to surround Qu Kui, took off the gorgeous ornaments one by one for him, and then replaced them with helmets and armors used for fighting. These armors were in the style of Han, but they were added with Luoyue-style gold and silver patterns.
When he finished his work, the big tent behind him was also put away, and the elite guarding the king were ready to go, waiting for him to issue an order. The Linyi Kingdom was able to conquer many tribes south of Jiaozhou and even outside the country in just twenty years, and form a force that could leverage the situation on one side, which was not a lucky chance.
Such soldiers are already strong, and Qu Kui himself is worthy of being a hero.
But what should I do now?
Qu Kui is really undecided.
Yi Liao and Qian Bo betrayed, but they betrayed so resolutely? Their rebellion is likely to cause a chain reaction in various parts of Jiaozhou, and more people will join the ranks of rebellion. Who will they be? More people will be shaken, and who will they be?
Yi Liao and Qian Bo are not completely reliable, so I asked Qu Jing to stare at them, both driving and being prepared. Why couldn't Qu Jing control them? Where is Qu Jing now?
The forces of the six tribes of the Southern Yi were unable to force out all the soldiers and soldiers of the Cangwu Han army. Then, what will the Han people deal with it next? Will the Han people's army be dispatched?
Although Shi Xie was in charge of Jiaozhi and was like the lord of Jiaozhou, his strength was to appease and win over local forces. When he saw blood in his hands, he actually performed poorly. But now the left general Lei Yuan in Cangwu is different. He led a real elite. If he loses control over the various departments of Jiaozhou and has to face Lei Yuan's troops directly, it is even a big problem.
That's why Qu Kui tried his best to hide behind the scenes and instigated the local forces in Jiaozhou to move forward. But now, the situation that was originally under control was in confusion with a sudden failure. Too many things could not be judged.
But this idiot Banban was filled with panic. He provided too little information.
Qu Kui glanced at him and slowly took the blood-stained knife back into the sheath.
The fat and squinting were lying on the ground, and there was a new wound in the center of the belly. Blood and internal organs were gushing out of the wound, emitting waves of foul smell.
That was the move that Qu Kui had just taken when he was shocked and angry, and he was a little impatient. However, killing him just needs to be killed. What is the point of killing someone? Since ancient times, the so-called heroes have all emerged from the sea of ​​corpses and blood.
At this time, someone shouted again: "King, look at it! General Qu Jing is bringing people here!"
"oh?"
Qu Kui breathed a sigh of relief and was a little happy. Qu Jing is a rare brave and good warrior among the Qu clan. In recent years, the power of Linyi Kingdom has expanded, and it is due to Qu Jing's fierce fighting in the battle formation. However, this person is not the rank of Qu clan, so he can only be placed in Jiaozhou to protect his clan.
No matter what the situation on the front line is, when Qu Jing comes, the situation will not be corrupt. Qu Jing's mind is better than a barbarian like Banban. Then the two brothers plan carefully and see how to deal with it.
