Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 424
Chapter 431
Although the name of Black Ice Terrace cannot be said to be known to everyone in Daqin, at least as a general of the Jiuyuan Army, he knows it very well.

However, although he was very afraid of the guards of the black ice platform that the knights in the city called, the leopard-eyed general on the city wall did not let go of his raised arm.

"Do you have proof?"

The leopard-eyed general narrowed his eyes slightly, and then shouted loudly.

"hold head high!"

After Leopard General's words fell, a knight riding his horse behind the big man in black hissed suddenly, and fell to the ground foaming at the mouth.The extremely exhausted knight who came north on horseback also fell to the ground.

Following the death of the first batch of war horses, two more war horses screamed from behind the men in black, and they all died of exhaustion.The two men in black who were originally nimble behind on the horse fell to the ground without moving, just like the first man in black who fell to the ground.

When the black-clothed knight who rode his horse first heard three mournful cries behind him, he keenly felt that the horses under his crotch were also crumbling, as if they were about to fall down like those three horses in the next moment.

The three consecutive screams of war horses under the city wall made the leopard-eyed general on the top of the city shudder.The next moment, without waiting for the man in black to speak again, he ordered loudly: "Two groups of people come out of the city with the general, and the rest wait for the general to leave the city and close the city gate immediately."

"Here!"

The soldiers of the Nine Plains Army on the city wall did not hesitate to hear the order of the leopard-eyed general, and responded loudly.

Two quarters of an hour later, a carrier eagle and two carrier pigeons flapped their wings from the Jiuyuan City shogunate into the dark night sky at the same time.

The letter eagle reported to the emperor in Xianyang. One of the two pigeons chased Meng Tian, ​​who was suppressing the rebellion, and the other told the news to General Li Xin in Yuyang.

There are nearly 50 people who control strings in Maodun's southward trip this time. Of course, this does not include the old and weak Xiongnu who accompanied the army and were responsible for grazing cattle and sheep, as well as the slaves of the Yuezhi, Qiang and even Daqin.

Among the 50 troops, only 20 were truly elite Huns.The remaining 30 people were followed by the army of Donghu people conquered by Modu.This battle of Maodun almost emptied the young and strong of the entire Donghu clan of more than a million people at once.

As long as the male Dingju who is taller than the back of a horse is recruited by Modun into the southward army.Most of the Donghu people who stayed within hundreds of miles around the Holy Land of the Huns in Langjuxu Mountain were old and weak, women and children.

Of the 40 Huns who controlled the strings, Modu left 20 to control and guard these Donghu people who had become vassals and slaves of the Huns.Coupled with more than a million Huns, it is enough to suppress those Donghu people who no longer have the protection of young and strong.

Maodun's trip to the south this time also kills two birds with one stone.He obviously wanted to use the last [-] youths of the Donghu clan as cannon fodder.When the Qin army killed almost as much as these Donghu people, it would be the time when his sons of the Huns came out.

After this battle, it is conservatively estimated that at least [-]% to [-]% of the youth of the Donghu people will be lost. At that time, only the old and weak Donghu people are left. After only a few years of enlightenment, when those children grow up, they will be able to Completely integrated into the Xiongnu clan, without regenerating the heart of resistance.

Although the news of the Xiongnu army going south has been passed on, the shogunate of Jiuyuan City fell into silence.Of course, this silence is not because of the fear of the Huns' army, but because the current Jiuyuan City has no leader at all.

Meng Tian has just been away for five days, and at this moment he is still thousands of miles away from Jicheng.Now there is no one in Jicheng who can mobilize the elites of the Jiuyuan Army and Liaodong Army scattered everywhere.The generals at all levels in the shogunate can only mobilize the hundreds or thousands of soldiers around them.

Without the order of the emperor or the general, no matter how high or low the general in the city is, as long as he mobilizes every soldier in the camp at will, he will be regarded as rebellious, just like rebellion.

Although they can all mobilize the soldiers of the Jiuyuan Army.But being able to mobilize does not mean daring to mobilize.

Conspiracy, that is to punish the nine clans!
All were at a loss.

If the army is not mobilized, if the emperor's edict comes too slowly, and General Li Xin fails to arrive in time, or the Huns come too fast, why not take any action and let the Huns break the Great Wall and die? Enter, plunder the people of Daqin at will, and drive straight into Jiuyuan city?
The garrisons in the various fortresses around the Great Wall are extremely limited, with no more than a thousand people in each fortress, and they are extremely scattered. Isn't it waiting for the Huns to defeat them one by one?

Contradictions, really contradictory extremes.

"Generals, quickly mobilize your troops. The Huns are probably less than two hundred miles away from the Changcheng Castle. Are you generals afraid of the barbarians of the Huns?" The spies who had been waiting for the generals of the Nine Plains Army to dispatch their troops After watching for a long time, I realized that the generals at all levels in this hall turned out to be looking at each other and not speaking after sending out the letter.

Even he, a dead soldier who doesn't know how to use soldiers, knows the consequences of the Huns raiding Liaodong County. Could it be that these generals were frightened by hundreds of thousands of Huns?This is the famous Nine Plains Army, the number one elite of the Great Qin Dynasty?
He finally couldn't help but speak out.

"presumptuous……"

"nonsense……"

The spy's few short words were like stabbing a hornet's nest, causing the generals of the Jiuyuan Army who were originally in conflict to jump up.

Would the Jiuyuan Army, known as the number one elite in the Great Qin Dynasty and established by the great general Meng Tian, ​​be afraid of those dirty and vulgar Huns?

This is really the funniest joke these Jiuyuan Army generals have heard since their birth.

At this time, a rough voice suddenly sounded in the lobby like a muffled thunder.

"Brother, do you know how many heads of Huns and barbarians have been beheaded by our Jiuyuan Army guarding our Great Qin's northern border for more than ten years? When did our Great Qin Jiuyuan Army become afraid of those Huns and barbarians? Those barbarians were afraid of us The Nine Plains Army is about the same, haha!"

A tall man at least nine feet tall, wearing a black armor and full of beards, glanced at T-number three with disdain, and said in a low voice.In the end, he seemed to think of the way the Huns saw the Nine Plains Army running away, so he laughed out loud.

It was finally discovered that all the generals of the Jiuyuan Army in the entire lobby, including the five dragon guards, looked at him with sick expressions on their faces, which immediately made this strong general laugh like a cock being strangled by the neck. But stop.

He opened his mouth twice, and when the burly general was about to say something to cover up his embarrassment, he never wanted the spy to speak first again.

"Then why haven't the generals who commanded hundreds of thousands of original troops sent troops to prepare for battle?"

"That's because we don't have the right to mobilize troops. Your Majesty has ordered that without the Tiger Talisman, we must not mobilize the army." After the strong man finished speaking, his face was full of helplessness.
