Chapter seven hundred and eighteen beautiful women, talented women
"Send the order, and dispatch 10,000 troops to go east of Fenyin City to dig holes, dig a pit that is enough to accommodate 70,000 to 80,000 people. It must be completed at this time tomorrow." Yan Liang issued the order in a cold tone.
Digging a hole?
Wen Chou was stunned at first, and then he understood what Yan Liang meant.
His king of Great Chu wanted to fulfill his oath before the war and to kill all the five Xiongnu tribes.
"I'll do it now." Wen Chou had no sympathy, but instead became more excited and bowed away.
Yan Liang entered the city for a while and originally planned to stay in the city for one night, but after the inspection, he gave up this idea.
The Huns made a living by raising herds. The city was filled with shit from cattle and horses. The entire Fenyin City was stink and Yan Liang certainly did not want to spend the night in such an environment.
So, after a week of patrol, Yan Liang left the city from the south gate.
At this time, thousands of Huns had been tied up by ropes and drove out of the city in groups.
Not long after Yan Liang left the city, he suddenly found that thousands of Han people appeared beside the road.
"What's going on with these people?" Yan Liangqi said.
"These are slaves captured by the five nobles from the Han area. General Wen will die in the future, how will the king deal with it?" a small school replied with his hands.
Since ancient times, the Huns invaded Han land, not only plundered wealth, but also their important target of plunder.
After the Southern Xiongnu surrendered to the Han Dynasty, they took advantage of the chaos in the world and went to the Han area to burn, kill, loot and capture. These unfortunate Han people plundered the Huns there to act as slaves and be driven by the Hun nobles.
Looking at these poor Han people who were ragged and described as timid and fearful, Yan Liang gritted his teeth and his hatred for the Huns became even more serious.
"Is this necessary to ask for advice from me? These Han people are all victims of poisoning by the Huns. Of course, they were moved back to the mainland and included in the people of the Great Chu State's household registration." Yan Liang ordered loudly.
When the school heard this, it quickly ordered the Han people to be untied and informed them that they had become free people of the Great Chu.
When the Han people heard this, they were all extremely surprised. Thousands of people knelt in front of Yan Liangjia, crying and grateful.
"The king is really our reborn parents."
"The young people are willing to be cows and horses to repay the king's kindness."
...
These Han people who were free were grateful to Yan Liang for his great kindness and virtue.
Yan Liang did not say falsely, "This is what I should do." Such polite words like "I am a false and righteous person. I, Yan Liang, have been kind to you, so I should accept your thanks calmly.
However, Yan Liang couldn't stand their humble and slacky nature as they were.
Yan Liang frowned and shouted, "You all get up, raise your head and straighten your chest. From now on, you are all people of Great Chu. Even if you want to worship me, you must be upright.
You don't need to be so servile."
Yan Liang had a deafening word, but failed to wake them up. These people were still shrinking and full of slavery.
"These people have been slaves for many years, and they are afraid that they are used to being bullied by the Huns, so they are like this." Zhou Cang, who was next to them, sighed.
Zhou Cang's words reminded Yan Liang, and it is right to think about it. Once a person becomes a slave for a long time, he will become a slave instinct. If he wants to break this slave, he must use extraordinary means to stimulate them.
After pondering for a while, Yan Liang had an idea and said, "Don't let these people return home first. I want them to be useful tomorrow."
After saying that, Yan Liang didn't want to see their slavery again and rode away.
When he went to the camp and entered the tent, Liu Bao, with his broken arm, had been kneeling there for a long time.
"King, this guy is the captain Liu Bao. The old minister left him a life and came to offer it to the king." Huang Zhong bowed.
"The veteran general did a pretty job." Yan Liang was very happy and ordered on the spot to increase Huang Zhong's fief by 300 as a reward for his capture of Liu Bao.
After rewarding Huang Zhong, Yan Liang's cold gaze swept towards the head of the Huns who were kneeling in front of him.
"Liu Bao, do you know your guilt?" Yan Liang shouted coldly.
Liu Bao, who had broken his arm, endured the severe pain and hurriedly said, "Liu Bao was bewitched by the big ear thief and mistakenly became enemies with the king. Bao was known to be guilty, so please give me kindness."
"It is naturally a great sin to oppose me." Yan Liang's tone was cold, "But this is not your real sin. Your greatest sin is that you shouldn't have taken your Huns and barbarians to entrench on the land of China.
.”
Liu Bao was stunned and his mind had not turned around yet.
The Southern Xiongnu moved inward for three generations. Neither Yuan Shao, Cao Cao or Liu Bei said anything wrong. How could it be a crime when he got to Yan Liang?
"How can the land of China accommodate you barbarians like pests? If you defiled the land of China, you should be punished and die!" Yan Liang's tone was cold, and his intention to kill was ignited.
Liu Bao's whole body trembled, and was already frightened by Yan Liang's sorrowful aura. He was so scared that he didn't know why and couldn't say a word.
"King, this captain deserves to be punished for death. It's better to kill him with one knife." Huang Zhong shouted angrily.
Yan Liang sneered and waved his hand and said, "If you kill him with one knife, it will make him better than death. Come on, take him down and take care of him first, and then deal with it tomorrow."
"King, Liu Bao really knows that he is wrong. Please be kind to you," Liu Bao screamed in panic.
But the tiger soldiers didn't care about him. Several people rushed forward and dragged Liu Bao out ruthlessly like a dead dog.
Liu Bao was dragged away, and Huang Zhong, who was receiving the reward, retreated.
There are no foreign ministers in the king's tent. At this time, Zhou Cang Gongshou said: "I report to the king, I plundered Liu Bao's tent and captured a beautiful woman, claiming to be Liu Bao's wife. I think the king is concerned about this woman.
I will definitely be very interested."
As Zhou Cang spoke, there was a smile on his lips.
It is obvious that this confidant general of Yuan Cong who had followed Yan Liang for so long knows Yan Liang's preferences.
"Liu Bao's wife?" Yan Liang was immediately interested, as if he had thought of something.
Zhou Cang took a closer look and said with a smile: "As far as I know, this woman's name is Cai Yan, and she is the daughter of the late great scholar Cai Yong. She was captured by the Huns in her early years and fell into the hands of Liu Bao."
Cai Yan, Cai Wenji?
Yan Liang suddenly remembered this person, who was familiar with history. Of course, he knew Cai Wenji's name. This woman who was well versed in music made a famous song "Eighteen Beats of Hu Zi", which is also considered a famous woman who left her name in history.
Yan Liang only remembered that he was captured by the Huns and was finally redeemed by Cao Cao from the Huns for a lot of money, but he did not expect that Cai Yan was Liu Bao's wife.
"How does this Cai Yan look?" Yan Liang asked with a smile.
"It's not as beautiful as the country, but it's not an exaggeration to describe it as beautiful and charming."
Beautiful and charming, a woman who has left her name in history, a talented woman...
"Interesting. Let's take a look." Yan Liang was excited and happily gave up the bill.
After a while, Yan Liang walked into a military tent. The young woman sitting quietly in the military tent stood up and subconsciously panicked and retreated.
Yan Liang walked in with his long hair, looking at the young woman's face as if she was looking at her blade.
What Zhou Cang said is indeed correct. Cai Yan is indeed beautiful and charming, regardless of appearance or figure.
"Are you Cai Yan?" Yan Liang said as he stepped into the tent.
Cai Yan nodded slightly and said alertly: "Who are you?"
Zhou Cang glared at his eyes and shouted, "My king is here, you won't see you yet."
Yan Liang? Is this heroic man in front of him actually the famous and cruel Yan Liang?
Cai Yan's delicate body shook, his face full of fear, and his dark eyes looked at Yan Liang up and down, and he was a little confused for a moment.
After a while, Cai Yan reluctantly regained his peace. He bowed his head and said, "I am Cai Yan, pay homage to the king."
Yan Liang also ignored her and just looked through some of the books in the tent, including either some poems or music scores. Of course, the Huns did not understand such elegant things, and most of them were done by Cai Yan.
"It's true that he is worthy of being the daughter of a great Confucian scholar." Although Yan Liang does not understand literary music very well, Yan Liang can tell that her cultural heritage is quite profound based on her good handwriting.
"Thank you for your praise," Cai Yan responded calmly.
Yan Liang looked around and suddenly pulled out a silk book from a pile of books.
Cai Yan's expression suddenly changed, and panic flashed in his eyes.
Yan Liang had glanced casually for a few seconds, thinking that it was just an ordinary poem or something, but after seeing it, his face gradually became gloomy.
Bang!
Yan Liang threw the silk book in front of Cai Yan and sneered: "I am still wondering why Liu Bei persuaded Liu Bao so easily to surrender. With Liu Bao's wisdom, how could he come up with a plan to surrender? It turns out that
It’s no wonder you are behind the scenes.”
Cai Yan's face changed and a look of shame appeared between her eyebrows.
The letter in Yan Liang's hand was the secret letter that Zhuge Liang gave to Cai Yan through Liu Bei's tone.
In the secret letter, Liu Bei not only promised that after the matter was completed, he would ask Liu Bao for Cai Yan's return to Han, but also gave Cai Yan a secret message, asking her to offer her advice to Liu Bao, and to go to surrender to attack Yan Liang.
Liu Bao is not well-known for many Chinese characters. Cai Yan thought that the silk book would not be discovered in his own musical compositions, but he did not expect that Yan Liang had no objection to see it.
"You are homesick, and I can understand it, but in order to return home, you instigate Liu Bao to oppose me. Moreover, you secretly contact Liu Bei, so this king can't spare you."
As he spoke, the cold expression on Yan Liang's face had already surged like a dark cloud.
Cai Yan became more and more panicked and said hurriedly: "The king misunderstood. Liu Bei has indeed contacted me, but I have never agreed to him. Everything Liu Bao did was his own decision, and it has nothing to do with me.
.”
Cai Yan blamed all his faults on Liu Bao.
Her approach was clever. Yan Liang did not have any definite certificates.
But, so what?
Does Yan Liang need any bullshit evidence to deal with a spoil or a woman?
"Come on, come and find a few women, peel off her clothes, wash her clean, and then change the King of Japan to punish her personally."
Yan Liang sneered and shouted, then left with a squirt.
Cai Yan was already shy and at a loss when he heard Yan Liang's words. (To be continued...)
