Qiu Fushi said: "Since the general has decided like this, what more can I say? I should just do it." The face facing the ground in thanks was full of ferocity.
When Gai Jun saw Qiu Fushi agreed, he immediately smiled, helped him up, and said, "This is the right thing. Qiu Fushi, in five years, I will make you the Great Chanyu of the Huns, and I will never break your promise." Five years, one day.
Eighteen hundred days is a very long process, during which many things will happen. Even if Qiu Fushi died "accidentally", it would not be the slightest surprise.
"Thank you, General..." Qiu Fushi thanked him again after hearing this.
Jia Xu, who was hiding deep behind Gai Jun and whose presence was even inferior to that of the bodyguards, was looking at Qiu Fushi with his narrow eyes and a playful smile at the corner of his mouth.
Gai Jun sat on the main seat, invited Qiu Fushi to take his seat, and said: "I once served as a general who protected the Xiongnu. I have always known that beautiful country is remote and desolate, and there is not much fun to talk about. Although Jinyang is not a famous city in the world, it is also the administrative seat of Bingzhou.
Dragon Hidden Land, you’ve finally come here, don’t leave in a hurry, have fun for a few days.”
Qiu Fushi said with a troubled face: "This is also my idea, but Shan Yu's matter is the top priority of the Xiongnu, and I can't delay it for a moment. I want to go home as soon as possible to communicate with my father and the clan."
Gai Jun said calmly: "Okay, I won't try to persuade you to stay."
After Qiu Fushi left, Gai Jun turned to look at Jia Xu and asked, "Wen He, how are you?"
Last year, Huchuquan colluded with Shuofang to slaughter Ge, and Zahu rebelled, and was killed by Ma Teng. Gai Jun was upset by the endless situation of the Huns. In the future, facing increasingly powerful opponents in the Central Plains, he had no time to be wary of the Huns.
, I made some calculations in my mind and asked Jia Xu for his opinion.
Jia Xu's strategy was not to establish a chanyu of the Xiongnu, but to make the Zhonglang general who protected the Xiongnu preside over the affairs of the Dragon Conference as the first step. The rest seemed to promote the weak, suppress the nobles, install Han officials, follow the people of Meiji, and move the Xiongnu inward.
Implementing Chineseization...step by step, within a few years, the Xiongnu will no longer have the power to rebel.
This coincided with Gai Jun's idea, but what Jia Xu said was more detailed, so he adopted it.
Jia Xu said slowly: "Qiu Chiche is an old fox, and Qiu Fushi is also a smart man. The two of them must have a plan when they come, and the general's delaying method may not work."
"Oh?" Gai Jun raised his eyebrows slightly.
Jia Xu stared straight out of the hall, as if following Qiu Fushi's footsteps, and said: "If the official guessed correctly, Qiu Fushi will most likely not return to Meiji..."
"Wen He is saying..." Gai Jun's eyes suddenly burst into murderous intent. "He is looking for death."
"Wealth is sought in danger." Jia Xu said with a smile: "If he goes to Chang'an, Dong Zhuo will definitely support this matter with all his strength. After all, the general is his life and death enemy. Even if the Huns are unable to restrain the general, they will still cause some waves.
.”
Gai Jun snorted coldly, then raised his voice and said: "Meng Qi, come in..."
"General..." Ma Chao stepped through the door and entered.
Gai Jun said: "Meng Qi, you go and take the people, follow Qiu Fushi out of the city, and find an opportunity to kill him in the wild." Gai Jun has no direct evidence to prove that Qiu Fushi is going to Chang'an. Everything is just Jia Xu's speculation, but that
So what, he wants to kill someone, why does he need evidence?
"No." Ma Chao accepted the order and left.
Jia Xu said: "General, please send someone to inform General Ma and Chen Zhonglang to be wary of Qiu Chiche going crazy after losing his son and making disobedient acts." General Ma is naturally the father of Ma Chao, and General Ma Teng and Chen Zhonglang are the guardians of Liao.
Chen Ji, the Xiongnu lieutenant general, coincidentally has the same name as Chen Qun's father. He comes from the Chen family of the Shangdang family. The family has been border generals for generations. His grandfather is the famous general Chen Gui and Chen Shuzhen of the Han Dynasty.
Gai Jun deeply agreed, nodded and said: "Yes. If Qiu Chiche, this old dog, dares to make any strange move, kill him and punish the clan..."
Qiu Fushi returned to the official residence, packed his bags, and set off immediately. After leaving the city gate, Qiu Fushi tightened the reins, looked back at Jinyang City, his face was ashen, and he thought to himself: "Five years, huh, you think I, Qiu Fushi, am a fool.
No? Since you are unkind, then don’t blame me for being unrighteous..."
"Let's go..." Qiu Fushi shouted, riding his horse and running toward the west with five or six followers.
Ma Chao stood on the west city gate, watched Qiu Fushi go away, smiled coldly, and after a while, turned and went downstairs. Twenty knights in iron armor stood side by side with their horses, their expressions were cold and silent. These people were all experienced in many battles.
We are brave people. To fight one against a hundred is bragging, but to fight one against ten is not nonsense.
"Sima..."
Without saying a word, Ma Chao waved his hand, jumped on his horse, and galloped out first, followed closely by twenty knights.
There was no county to the west of Jinyang. There used to be only some villages. In the fourth year of Zhongping (187 AD) and the fifth year of Zhongping (188 AD), everyone was slaughtered. The Huns invaded Taiyuan County twice, approaching the city of Jinyang.
All the villages in Yangxi have been reduced to nothing, thousands of miles away from being inhabited. Recently, Gai Jun established a farming area based on the people of Hengshan, which has gained popularity and is no longer desolate.
The weather was hot at noon. Qiu Fushi stopped under the lush green mountains to escape the heat. He sat cross-legged on the grass, eating dried meat and greedily looking at the wheat fields like a golden sea. He was filled with emotions. There were many mercenaries from the Hu tribe in Han Dynasty.
, Liangzhou Qianghu, Youzhou Wuwan, Bingzhou Tuge, Xiongnu are all the same. On weekdays, when the Han Dynasty has something to do, the court gives generous money to drive the expedition. The Hu people have always been brave and good at fighting, but the military discipline is lax. The Han people want to gain their strength, most of them are
Turn a blind eye. Those days were really beautiful...
Thinking of this, Qiu Fushi felt a surge of boundless resentment towards Xubu Guduhou and Huchuquan. The former pushed the Huns to the edge of the cliff, while the latter made up for it and kicked the Huns completely into darkness.
The abyss. What Qiu Fushi has to do now is to lead the Huns to climb out of the abyss.
First of all, he went to Chang'an to seek an audience with the emperor and win the position of Xiongnu Chanyu for his father. The actual ruler of the Han Dynasty, Xiangguo Dong Zhuo, was not on good terms with Gai Jun, so he had no reason to refuse.
There are generally two ways to go to Chang'an, one of which is going south from Taiyuan County. However, Taiyuan and Shangdang are densely populated and difficult to move around, so it is not advisable. He planned to cross the Luliang Mountains and return to Xihe County, and then go south to Chang'an via Hedong.
Once the father is established as a chanyu, he will be jealous and even obstructed by Gai Jun. At this time, he should endure the humiliation and let it go, lest Gai Jun find an excuse to kill him. When the situation stabilizes, he will secretly integrate the Xiongnu forces. Gai Jun is
To be honest, it is very difficult for a hero among the Han people to make a difference under his eyes, but no matter how difficult it is, you have to do it. The Huns once dominated the grasslands and fought fiercely with the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years. Later, they split internally, and with the rise of Xianbei,
This led to the collapse of the grassland empire. Deep down in the heart of every Xiongnu man was a dream of reviving the Xiongnu, and Qiu Fushi was no exception.
"Gulu gulu..." The water flowed into the mouth smoothly, passed through the throat, esophagus, and fell into the stomach. The body felt cool and the heat was relieved. At this moment, Qiu Fushi moved his right ear twice, put down the water bag, and turned to look
To the east, dozens of knights in black armor were seen rushing straight down the official road. Their movements were vigorous and skillful, and they must be the elite of the Han army.
Qiu Fushi frowned slightly. Although he didn't think they were targeting him, he was careful not to make any big mistake. He quietly glanced at several of his subordinates. They understood and walked to the mount seemingly casually, unhooking their bows and nocking arrows, because
With the horse's body blocking it, it would be difficult for outsiders to see it.
Three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps, fifty steps...
Ma Chao took off a two-stone, 240-kilogram heavy bow while he was galloping. He held a wolf-toothed arrow in his hand and pulled the bow string. Under the sunlight, the long arrow with a faint green light suddenly left the string and turned into a black light.
As soon as a Huns raised their bows, arrow clusters shot into their eyes and penetrated the back of their heads. As soon as Ma Chao moved, the soldiers shot arrows in unison. Twenty long arrows killed four Huns in an instant. In the blink of an eye, Qiu Qiu
There was only one follower left beside Fu Shi.
"Gai Jun wants to kill me? Did he see through my mind?..." Qiu Fushi was frightened and angry, dripping with cold sweat. He raised his hand and shot an arrow over a Han knight, jumped on his horse, and galloped wildly. His only
The surviving subordinates risked their lives to cover them, shot and killed a Han soldier, and were immediately shot into hedgehogs.
Qiu Fushi's riding skills were superb, and his mount was one of the best horses in a thousand miles. He had to delay for a moment, which was enough for him to escape within a stone's throw. However, what surprised him was that it didn't take long for the Han army to catch up.
Suddenly the arrows were like locusts, and three arrows hit Qiu Fushi's back, causing the horse to fall off his horse.
Ma Chao put away his bow, with a look of unruly and murderous intent, drove his horse to Qiu Fushi, rolled down his saddle, and slowly drew out his four-foot-long knife from his waist. He was about to lean over and cut off the opponent's head, but Qiu Fushi suddenly
He jumped up, drew his sword and slashed his face.
"Dang..." Ma Chao hurriedly raised his knife to block. Not only did the blade burst out with a stream of sparks, but it also came with an astonishing force. His arm went numb, and his body couldn't bear the strength, so he took two steps back.
Qiu Fushi roared and rushed at him again. He recognized this boy as Ma Chao, the son of General Ma Teng, who was the Du Liao general. Now he was seriously injured and trapped in a tight siege. There was only one way to survive. He captured Ma Chao and used him as a hostage to find an opportunity to escape.
"Sima, retreat quickly..." Seeing that Ma Chao was at a disadvantage with one move, all the soldiers shouted in unison.
Ma Chao turned a deaf ear, his face became more defiant, and he swung his knife to chop at the rushing Qiu Fushi.
"Dang, clang, clang, clang..."
The two sides swung their swords and struck hard continuously, and the sound of metal and iron could not be heard. Ma Chao's internal organs were violently impacted, and his mouth and nose were bleeding. Qiu Fushi also felt uncomfortable. The arrow wound on his back exploded and blood flowed like a stream.
"Bang..." There was another loud noise, and Qiu Fushi staggered backwards. For the first time since the fight, he was at a disadvantage.
Ma Chao's best choice at this time was to let the guards come forward to attack Qiu Fushi, but he was arrogant and unwilling to use his hands on others, so he chased him out with his sword. Relying on his youth and strength, he quickly regained his breath and slashed more than ten times in a row.
The knife weighed as much as a thousand pounds, and Qiu Fushi retreated again and again, teetering on the edge of falling, and his entire back was dyed red with blood.
When Ma Chao struck the fifteenth blow, Qiu Fushi finally couldn't hold it anymore, and the heavy sword fell to the ground. Ma Chao chopped off the blade in the opponent's hand, took advantage of the situation, jumped up, spun around and slashed, a white light flashed, Qiu Fushi's head left his neck,
It fell to the ground diagonally.
"Bah!" Ma Chao spat a mouthful of bloody phlegm onto Qiu Fushi's body, his face becoming more and more arrogant...
