Battle for hegemony at the end of the Qin Dynasty in the military god system

Chapter 228 The Runaway Meng Tian

"Why did you kill him?" Han Xin stopped him.

Meng Tian didn't turn his head back, he walked towards another Hun with his saber in his hand, and replied flatly, "Because he is a Hun."

Han Xin was stunned, not knowing how to answer, Sha Pojun walked slowly to Han Xin's side, patted him, and comforted him in a low voice: "General Meng must have his reasons."

Meng Tian frowned, without pausing, he raised his knife and slashed at the head of another Hun. The Hun tried to dodge, but was held down by two soldiers, unable to move.There was only an angry howl, and a head rolled to the ground.The rest of the Huns were terrified and shouted in panic: "The devil! He is a devil!"

Sha Pojun couldn't stand it any longer. The key issue was that Meng Tian didn't share any useful information with everyone.So he stopped the furious Meng Tian, ​​and said in a deep voice, "Enough! General Meng."

Meng Tian stopped in his tracks, planted his saber on the ground, and remained silent.Sha Pojun stepped forward quickly and asked, "Why did General Meng execute these Huns?"

"The Huns don't deserve to live!" Meng Tian clenched his fists and said incoherently.

Sha Pojun was about to say a few words, Wang Li held down Sha Pojun from behind, and said in a sad voice: "The Huns have already entered the country, and Yangzhou City is under siege."

Sha Pojun turned his head to look at Wang Li, and Wang Li continued: "The Huns are nomads. They are divided into countless tribes, big and small. They invade the Central Plains every once in a while, burning, killing, and looting. They do all sorts of evil. My husband and I General Meng has been guarding the frontier for more than ten years. Every year, he sees the people of our state of Qin die at the hands of the Huns. Their death is horrible, so our border guards hate the Huns. It is known from the population that under the leadership of the Xiongnu Maodun Shanyu, they invaded our territory again, and even Yangzhou was besieged, and General Meng was angry mainly because of this."

Sha Pojun nodded. He had heard about the Huns as a nation. Because the living environment was harsh, they were not productive, and they were very aggressive. Sha Pojun was not a kind person. He glanced at the remaining Huns. , waved and said: "Kill them all! Let's go to Yang Zhou!"

Meng Tian looked at Sha Pojun gratefully, picked up the saber on the ground, walked quickly to the remaining Huns, and murmured: "It's been a long time since my saber drank the blood of the Huns. let him bloom his glory again!" After speaking, Meng Tian swung his knife, and the head of a Huns bid farewell to his body in an instant.The rest of the Huns begged for mercy in horror, but Meng Tian showed a wicked smile and walked slowly towards the next Huns.Sha Pojun frowned. Although the Huns deserved to die, is it necessary to intimidate them like this?Wouldn't it be best to have a direct result?

Meng Tian didn't know that his actions caused Sha Pojun's dissatisfaction. Even if he knew, Meng Tian would not change. As for the Huns, he wished to drink their blood and eat their flesh raw.However, Wang Li noticed Sha Pojun's dissatisfaction, and comforted Sha Pojun in a low voice: "My lord, have you ever seen the cruelty of the Huns? Woman. The Xiongnu is a nation that advocates force. Only those who are brave will be respected and have greater power. There, subordinates kill the lord, sons kill fathers, and fathers kill sons. Such things happen from time to time. This time we invaded us Maodun Chanyu of the Han was the one who killed his father. General Meng and I fought against Maodun’s father, Touman, at the border for many years, and drove them thousands of miles away. I thought we could settle down a bit, but it’s a pity that we all I underestimated the aggressiveness of the Huns. This year, the Qin State was in turmoil, and the Great Wall Army was discorded. I and General Meng were killed in a row, and many Great Wall troops were transferred away. This made the Huns also think that there is an opportunity to send troops to the border."

Sha Pojun took a deep breath. Although he knew that the Huns were a cruel people, he had never seen their cruel deeds with his own eyes, so he did not have a deep understanding subjectively.Sha Pojun said in a deep voice: "General Meng quickly deal with these Huns, go to Yangzhou, we will meet that Maodun Chanyu, and drive these Huns back to hell."

Meng Tian replied: "Those who are not of our race must have a different heart! Go to the Huns!" After speaking, he stepped forward and killed the captured Huns with one knife.

Because of Meng Tian's sudden runaway, the scene was very deserted for a while, no one made a sound, and no one moved around.

Meng Tian walked towards Sha Pojun with his saber in hand, and said in a low voice, "Thank you!"

Sha Pojun accepted it readily, and replied flatly: "It should be so!"

The two didn't say anything more, Wang Li looked at the two with a very complicated mood, Sha Pojun stepped on the horse vigorously, and shouted at Wang Li: "General Wang, what are you thinking about? We are running out of time, we should hurry up!" Send these damn Huns back to hell."

Wang Li turned his head to look at Sha Pojun dully, then his eyes lit up, he quickly caught up with Sha Pojun, jumped on the horse, and shouted: "It seems to have returned to the feeling of fighting with my father."

"Don't dawdle, Yang Zhou is still under siege, they need our support." Meng Tian rode his horse to lead the charge, urging the others to speed up their march.

Just when Sha Pojun was about to speed up, Kuai Che approached Sha Pojun and asked in a low voice: "My lord, is it necessary for us to help Yang Zhou defeat the Huns? I heard that the Huns are not weak in combat power! And There will not be too many Qin soldiers left in Yang Zhou. If we fight the Xiongnu, we will lose a lot. My lord, please think again!"

Sha Pojun said firmly: "People have things to do and things not to do. To us, the Xiongnu are foreign invasions. When facing foreign invasions, work together to repel foreigners. That is what every Han compatriot should do. Even though we suffered heavy losses this time, we cannot compromise or retreat when facing foreigners."

The generals showed admiration for Sha Pojun's firm attitude, and they all geared up to be the vanguard.

Sha Pojun looked at the generals and added: "Although we have made a strategy to repel the Huns, we can't act recklessly. As Kuai Che said, the Huns are not weak. According to me As we all know, the Huns lived on horseback since they were young, and riding and archery is a must-have skill. Fighting with them, riding is definitely not an option, and what strategy to use depends on your advice.”

"My lord is right. Please forgive me for being impulsive. The Xiongnu have always had a large number of people. We need to think about it in the long run." Meng Tian found that the other generals did not keep up. He turned his head and saw that they were all discussing something beside Sha Pojun, so Also leaned over curiously.

When Sha Pojun saw Meng Tian coming, he was overjoyed and said with a smile, "I forgot that we have a commander with rich experience in fighting the Huns, so this time General Meng will be the commander to attack the Huns. will disappoint us."

Meng Tian didn't delay either, he clasped his hands and replied: "Thank you, my lord, for your love, then Meng Tian will be disrespectful."
