A gentleman takes revenge, relying on his face for ten years

Yan Chongjin breathed a mouthful of white mist, and also looked at the enemy formation ahead, the mask on his face shone with dazzling silver light in the sun.

Datar King City is located to the west of the Taierla Pass, on the snow-covered grassland.

This is an ancient city with an open structure, with loose buildings and wide streets, which is convenient for the people riding horses and herding sheep to enter and exit, and it is also convenient for the city residents to scatter and flee when the enemy comes.

Most of the houses in the city are domed, short and simple, but the walls are thick and hard, which not only keep warm but also resist wind and sand, and some chimneys still emit smoke.Chun Bing, who drank ice, lay on snow and suffered from the bitter cold all the way, was very excited.

The third Battalion of Datar had been crushed to pieces, and in addition to the fact that the royal city of Datar was difficult to defend, the Yanzi army easily reached the royal court.

The royal court was built on the top of the hill, condescending.The palaces are scattered and the walls are continuous.In front of the palace gate, there is a group of murderous Hufu heavy cavalry, which is the personal guard of King Datar.

It seems that Balmenggan really has no soldiers in his hands, and all the men and horses at the bottom of the box are used for appearance.

Yan Chongjin was about to order an attack, when the army array on the opposite side suddenly lined up.An old man dressed in red brocade and dressed as a civil servant galloped over on horseback.

This person is Yu Yue of Datar, who came to discuss peace on behalf of the king of Datar.

Yan Chongjin laughed heartily.

This war has been fought for more than three years, and the two countries suffered numerous casualties and serious loss of material resources.Could it be that you fight when you say you want to fight, and stop when you say you want to stop?

"I waited for the soldiers to cross mountains and ridges, brave the wind and snow, and finally arrived at your door. Didn't the Khan of your country invite us to come in and sit?"

The old man's face turned bitter, and he said embarrassingly: "The general is joking."

"Peace talks are also possible. Let Bale Menggan go back to the Central Plains with this commander, and go down to talk with my majesty. Yan is a warrior who doesn't know peace talks, only knows how to kill."

The other party's beard trembled: "General...you're joking again..."

Yan Chongjin's voice turned cold: "Are you joking? You dare to talk about peace talks after calling here, you are only joking!"

Hearing Yu Yue's reply, the last hope in Bale Menggan's heart was also shattered.

He frowned and sat on the throne. On the left was the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs, and on the right were the concubines and heirs. Men, women, old and young, all knelt on the ground crying.

Is Datar really exhausted?Balmengan beat his knees and sighed.

In his whole life, he has conquered the north and the south, and has he ever failed?In order to conquer Dachun in the east, he prepared for more than ten years and put in a lot of effort. He once swore to make the emperor of Chun Kingdom submit to the Datar iron cavalry.Unexpectedly, not only failed to break through the pass, but also repeatedly failed miserably in the three years of confrontation, and even reached the brink of national subjugation, which made the former God of War of the Western Regions simply unacceptable!

"King Khan!" Seeing him draw his sword, Yu Yue stepped forward to stop him, "Your Majesty, you don't have to be so pessimistic, we still have hope. Your prestige is still there. As long as you escape, you can gather the scattered troops and make Dongshan come back again." Get up!"

Bale Menggan chuckled: "This king is not going to commit suicide, and I will not admit defeat." He waved his hand lightly.

Yu Yue's eyes widened in astonishment, and he knelt down while clutching his throat.

The blood splattered three feet, staining the throne red, and the hall was filled with howls of horror.

Bale Menggan looked down at the trembling courtiers below, and said helplessly: "I don't want to do this either, but if the burial is not complete, the other party will become suspicious. When I return to this place, I will set up a banner for you all." Honorable Mention."

After saying that, he took the bloody knife and walked towards the queen step by step.

Before the royal court, blood flowed like rivers, and the sound of killing shook the sky.The Yanzi army was fighting fiercely with the Datar king, and suddenly someone shouted: "It's on fire! The palace is on fire!"

Yan Chongjin heard the reputation and looked over, and was surprised to see black smoke billowing from the sky above the white and brown palace.

The sky was dry and windy, and the fire was fierce.When Chun's army broke through the palace gate of the royal court, the main hall had been burnt to the point of collapse.Smoke and dust overflowed inside and outside the palace, and several huge stone pillars fell to the ground, black as black as ink.Under the broken wall, a few charred corpses could barely be seen.

Yan Chongjin quickly ordered people to search King Datar, cleared and sealed off the scene of the fire.After the remaining fire was extinguished and the high temperature subsided, the soldiers moved out more than [-] charred corpses one after another.

"Marshal, according to the captives, King Datar committed suicide, and his concubines and ministers all died with him.

"Which one is the body of Balmengan?"

"First on the left."

Yan Chongjin walked over, knelt down and uncovered the white cloth.

On the head of the charred corpse was a deformed golden crown, and the fragments of clothes could barely identify the style of the king's robe.He looked at it for a while, wrapped his hands in a cloth, and pinched the corpse's jaw open.

This person had lost all his front teeth, and only a few molars remained intact in his mouth, so he was clearly an old man over seventy years old.

"This is not Balmengan, keep searching!"

"Yes!"

The Chun army searched the palace twice, inside and out, but still did not find any trace of King Datar, and the other party might have fled.

You must know that Datar is a horse nation where everyone is a soldier. Coupled with the scattered rangers, it is very likely to launch a counterattack against the royal city.Once the tiger returns to the mountain, there will be endless troubles.

Considering that most of the soldiers were exhausted after marching and fighting in the severe cold environment, Yan Chongjin left the brigade to rest and followed the traces on the snow with two thousand light cavalry.

After tracking for half a day, he even made a big circle around the capital and returned to the west side of the Taierla Pass.

Looking at a series of hoof prints that went deep into the valley, Yan Chongjin reined in and stopped at the entrance.

Is Bale Menggan going back to the desert to die?Or simply want to lure the pursuers into the bait?

"Marshal, beware of fraud." He Xiaoshan reminded.

This silly boy has become a lot smarter, Yan Chongjin nodded to show that he knew.

Now the snow on the mountain is thick, shouting may cause an avalanche.If Balmenggan has always hated him for burying 30 Datars twice, he might really die here with himself.

No matter whether the opponent is in ambush in the snow-capped mountains, or has already come out of the Taierla Mountain Pass, Baal Menggan's tactic has survived from a desperate situation, making it difficult for Yan Chongjin to pursue him.As the coach of the victorious side, he has no need to go in and take risks, and he is not interested in accompanying the opponent to die in the sea of ​​snow.

"Forget it, let him live for now." Yan Chongjin finally gave up, "Keep an eye on this mountain pass and don't let anyone come out."

"Yes!"

Balmengham did not enter that mountain pass.He split up with the guards on the way, and rode west alone, clearing the hoof prints along the way, misleading Chunjun to chase in the wrong direction.

If Yan Chongjin had really entered the mountain pass, he would have slept with his bodyguards in Tela right now.

Regardless of ministers, concubines or personal guards, Bale Menggan didn't think there was anything wrong with sacrificing these people.He is the king of Datar, the messenger of Allah, and everyone else is a slave, a pawn that can be discarded at any time.It is the highest honor for Datars to die for escort and martyrdom. Allah will grant them eternal life in heaven.

However, Balmenggan does not want to see God yet.

There are still several cities in Xidatar, where his two younger brothers sit in town, and there are fifty or sixty thousand private soldiers under their command.As long as he persuades the other party and revives his strength, he will definitely be able to return to the royal court again, drive away the hateful Chun people, and regain the glory of the Bale family.

Thinking of this, the lonely King Khan suddenly felt his blood boil. He swung his whip and urged the fast horse to gallop across the snowy field facing the gradually setting sun.

Yan Chongjin rested in Datar King City for a month and adjusted all the troops.

The Tartars are all bull-tempered, fierce and aggressive, and not submissive. They are very hostile to foreign tribes, especially the Chun people. From time to time, they cause some troubles, so that the Yanzi army had to mobilize troops to suppress them.Therefore, Yan Chongjin specially set up Ji'an Siwei to maintain the stability of the royal city.

The golden-eyed eagle spoke up a few times, saying that these barbarians were purely itchy, and it was uncomfortable not to be massacred.

Yan Chongjin heard it was funny, and blocked it on the grounds of waiting for the imperial order.Although he also has his own ideas, but since the failure of the last marriage, he has not dared to make decisions privately.

Spring begins in March, the snow and ice on the mountains melt, and the grasslands are lush with greenery.

The Imperial Order of the Eastern Capital finally came from the distant Central Plains, left Yangguan in the west, crossed the desert, passed through the Taierla Mountain Pass, and reached Yan Chongjin.Along with them, there were [-] Datars headed by Gurban.

Liang Han's method is still to rule the barbarians with the barbarians, making Gurban the new Khan and re-establishing the Datar regime.

This idea coincides with Yan Chongjin's.

These 3 people did not like the royal family of Balle because they had been abandoned by Balmengan as abandoned sons.In addition, they have been herding sheep in Dachun for two years, and have seen all kinds of pork practices. They have been domesticated into moderate believers who are relatively pro-Han, and they are not opposed to professing vassals to foreign races.

Gurban turned over overnight, from a captive slave to a new Khan. He was very pleasantly surprised. He was grateful to the emperor of Chunguo and Yan Chongjin, and called Chunjun a teacher of benevolence and righteousness.

In order to show his loyalty to the suzerain, he used [-] old troops to quickly rectify the hidden dangers of public security inside and outside the royal city, and his methods were more severe than those of Chun people.

At this time, Xi Datar, under the call of Balmenggan, finally gathered [-] cavalry, and marched towards Dongda Tartar in a mighty manner.

Gurban suddenly felt that the throne was a little hot.

He subconsciously asked Yan Chongjin for help, but the other party replied indifferently: "Datar is a martial nation. King Khan came to the throne cheaply, and the people will inevitably feel dissatisfied. In my opinion, it is better to take advantage of this battle to establish a prestige. Bringing the so-called Golden Family to the ground will also help you rule in the future."

Gurban agreed, but he only had [-] soldiers in his hands, so he was inevitably a little guilty.Yan Chongjin pondered for a moment, and transferred another [-] Yanzi troops to support him, which gave the new King Khan the confidence to compete with his old master.

Balmengan didn't expect that it was Gurban who was fighting against him.

The two of them, the monarch and his ministers, have worked together for many years and know each other's tactics well.After several rounds of confrontation, it was a tie with half the casualties.

When Ta Cong Zhanyu was brought over from Saibei, what he saw was two teams of Datars fighting each other.The corpses of people and horses were scattered all over the grass, and the blood of countless warriors pooled into a stream, dyeing the clear river red.

Cannibalism between the same clan is the last scene he wants to see.

"Marshal, tomorrow is the match, can I go?"

Yan Chongjin turned around from the horse, and said puzzledly: "What are you going to do? The murderous spirit on the battlefield is too strong, it is not good for your health."

Cong Zhanyu sighed and said, "Since Datar has already lost, there is no need to continue struggling. I...I want to persuade Balmengan to surrender."

"Heh, do you think that kind of person will surrender?"

"Even if we don't surrender, there is always a way to negotiate peace. The worst is to divide the borders and rule, which is better than killing each other."

Letting Datar split into two parts, the east and the west, and their own people fighting each other is a way to weaken the foreign race from the inside.Dachun can support a Gurban, why can't he support a Xida Tartar king?Anyway, Liang Han already recognized enough emperors, and he didn't care about adding another one.

Thinking of this, Yan Chongjin agreed to the other party's request to go out with the army.To be on the safe side, he also brought his personal guards with him.

Three days later, the two armies faced each other on the banks of the Aheji River, the mother river on the Datar grassland, separated by a distance of two hundred feet.

Balmenggan accepted Dongdatar's negotiation. He was dressed in brown clothes and gold armor, riding a black steed, and came out alone.

Cong Zhanyu's physical condition was too weak to ride the horse alone, so Yan Chongjin had to share a ride with him, stopped five feet away from Bale Menggan, and let him down.

Seeing his male favorite come down from the arms of the enemy general, Balmenggan couldn't hold back his anger.

"Your Majesty..." Ta Cong Zhanyu took a few steps forward, knelt down to him, and begged, "Don't fight any more, okay? Datars shouldn't cut their own people with their knives... ...."

"Shut up! You traitor! National traitor! Slut!" Bale Menggan said angrily, "Without you, how could my 20 Datar men be buried in the snow-capped mountains?! Datar has fallen to the point it is today, and you are to blame! Still have the face to persuade this king not to kill each other?"

Cong Zhanyu shook his head in panic, "I didn't betray Datar, and I didn't know it was false information."

"No?" The other party glanced at Yan Chongjin with a sneer, and said sarcastically, "Is the Han Chinese skilled? Can it satisfy you?"

Cong Zhanyu turned pale, and stammered, "Zhanyu...has never betrayed the king."

"Hahahahahaha..." Bale Menggan looked up to the sky and smiled, "Tart Cong Dianyu, don't pretend. I think you are as good as a man, and you are as good as your master. You are a dog, you will No dog is loyal!"

"Your Majesty can scold me as much as you want, but I hope you can accept the peace talks and rule with Gurban." Ta Cong Zhanyu gritted his teeth, "The Datars... really can't stand any war. .”

Bale Menggan snorted coldly: "One traitor wants to negotiate peace with this king, and the other traitor wants to sit on an equal footing with me. How much benefit did the Chun people give you? A group of people who betrayed their ancestors!"

"Your Majesty..."

"roll!"

They spoke Datar, which Yan Chongjin couldn't understand.It's just that there is something wrong with the way the two of them communicate, and it doesn't seem like they can successfully negotiate a peace.

Just as he was about to urge Ta Cong Zhanyu to get up, he suddenly saw Ba Lemengan take out a small and delicate crossbow from behind his waist and aimed at him!

Yan Chongjin reacted quickly and fell back, narrowly avoiding a passing crossbow arrow.

Immediately afterwards, there was another sound of piercing through the air, and the second arrow also shot over.

But not to attack him.

"Zhanyu!"

Seeing Tacong Zhanyu fall to the ground, Yan Chongjin drew out his gun angrily, and knocked Balmenggan off his horse with a bang.

Seeing that people on both sides were being attacked, the army in the rear immediately beat drums and set up an array, killing them like a huge tide.

Yan Chongjin jumped off the horse and picked him up.Looking at the sharp arrow stuck in his chest, and the other party's ruthless face, he felt like a thorn in his throat for a moment, unable to utter a word.

Ta Cong Zhanyu looked at Bale Menggan who had fallen off the horse, coughed in a low voice, a streak of bright red blood overflowed from his mouth.

"My... 20 years... what the hell is it?" He laughed miserably, tears streaming down his face.

Seeing that this person was dying, Yan Chongjin didn't know what to say, so he could only hug him as tightly as possible.He knew that when a person was on the verge of death, even if he was in a raging fire, he would feel the bone-chilling coldness.

His vision gradually darkened, and Da Cong Zhanyu held his last breath, and said intermittently: "Yan Chongjin, I will give you... one last piece of advice..." He grabbed the other party's lapel with force, his voice trembling , "Never...don't...be a male favorite."

Serve people with color, and love to relax when color declines.Being a male favorite who serves the monarch will never gain the respect of the other party and the world.The most fickle thing in this world is the human heart, and the most cold one is the emperor.When you are old and decrepit, once you make a mistake, you will end up being disgusted by others...

Yan Chongjin, don't make the same mistakes I made, don't put yourself in the cage of love.Rather than flattering and fighting for favor, you are more suitable for a life that is wider than the grassland; rather than the deep courtyard of the palace, I would rather you fly freely in the sky on the battlefield.

The ground under his feet vibrated slightly, he clutched his hand tightly, and finally slid down powerlessly.

The cavalry behind them ran from both sides like a tidal wave, raising a large cloud of yellow dust.

Seeing the dust falling on that peaceful sleeping face, Yan Chongjin reached out to help him brush it off, and then wiped away the blood from the corner of the other's mouth with his sleeve.

This person has always liked to be clean, so he left in disgrace for no reason.

"Commander, King Datar was wounded and escaped, do you want to pursue him?" asked the golden-eyed eagle.

Yan Chongjin suddenly raised his head with sharp eyes: "He was not shot to death?"

"It doesn't seem to be. I saw him being supported by the guards on the horse, and retreated to the rear."

"Then why are you still standing there? Chase!"

Balmengan was seriously injured and fell off his horse. The Xidatar army lost the courage to resist, and Gurban's troops were almost defeated at the touch of a finger. Soon, they fled westward in two ways like frightened birds.

Yan Chongjin ordered the golden-eyed eagle to pursue one of them, and then personally led five thousand fine riders to bite the other deserter.

The Datars are proficient in archery, and can shoot arrows at the rear while retreating, so Yan Chongjin always keeps a distance of thirty or forty feet from the opponent.The enemy is fast and the enemy is slow, but as long as the Datars want to stop and rest, the Chun army will immediately start attacking.

After two days and one night of pursuit, both sides reached the limit of exhaustion and ran to the edge of Xidatar.

To the west of the grassland is still a dry desert.

However, unlike the Saibei Desert, most of the sand here is quicksand.Not to mention people, even the camel, known as the ship of the desert, will sink if it enters.

Seeing the Tatars reining in their horses in fear, Yan Chongjin also ordered the army to stay where they were, not understanding why these people suddenly stopped running away.

The bullet pierced Balmengan's iron armor and hit him in the stomach.Although the outside was bandaged, the gunshot wound caused bleeding in the abdominal cavity, coupled with the jolting and fleeing for days, the Datar king was already at the end of his battle.

He supported the horse with a bronzing face, gasped heavily and said to the people around him: "Don't confront the people of Chun head-on, and disperse to the north and south, and someone will escape alive."

"My lord, we will follow you." The Datar warriors were very resolute.

"Hehe, this king is going to enter the sea of ​​sand, you will follow?"

"Then go away, my lord, and may Allah bless you."

Seeing that the Datar soldiers began to scatter and flee in all directions, Yan Chongjin immediately ordered the encirclement and suppression.

During the scuffle, he saw the golden figure galloping his horse into the desert, knocked on the stirrups, and hurriedly chased after him, followed closely by the guards behind him.

Seeing that the opponent had taken the bait, Balmenggan sped up his horse and fled towards the middle of the desert.

"Bang!" Another shot hit the shoulder.With a muffled snort, he quickly bent down, took out a dagger and stabbed Aima's ass.

The horse neighed, and immediately galloped forward desperately.

Yan Chongjin was naturally reluctant to stick Hanhan's ass, so he could only watch helplessly as the opponent ran out of range of the pistol.

When they turned around a huge brown rock, a bright blue suddenly appeared in their vision, which was Haizi in the desert.

Seeing Bale Menggan sitting on the sand dune next to Haizi, Yan Chongjin rode over on his horse.When I got closer, I realized that the other party had lost his legs... no, the legs were sunk in the sand.

"Oops, Commander, this is quicksand!"

The horses below screamed, but the more they struggled, the deeper their bodies sank, and the rider was soon buried up to his waist.

Seeing a group of cavalry panicked, Balmenggan burst out laughing.

"Yan, aren't you capable? Don't you want to kill me? Come on, swim over quickly! Hahahahahaha..."

Yan Chongjin held his breath, jumped up from the horse suddenly, and actually jumped three feet away from the opponent, but touched his waist... Damn, when did the gun fall? !

He struggled slightly, and found that he was sinking slowly, he didn't dare to move, he just raised his head and looked over with cold eyes.

"Baler Menggan, I not only want to kill you, but also want to tell you one thing."

"what's up?"

"Tarcong Zhanyu didn't betray you."

Bale Menggan's eagle eyes froze for a moment, and then he sneered and said, "Cunning Chunren, he is full of lies when he dies. Hmph, I really don't want to die with you people!"

"I didn't lie to you." Yan Chongjin smiled wryly, "but I lied to him."

However, even after hearing the cause and effect, Bale Menggan still shook his head again and again: "I don't believe it! That bitch has already slept with you in the same bed, how could he work for the king again!"

"You know in your heart that what I said is the truth, but you just don't dare to admit it. If Ta Cong Zhanyu really betrayed you and Datar, and it's too late to hide from you, how dare you go to the front of the battle to talk with you?!" Yan Chongjin Liang Liang said, "Do you know who you killed with that arrow? He is the only person in this world who misses you until his death. If you look back when you are running, you will find that he has no eyes. Close up!"

"Shut up! Don't say any more!" Bale Menggan yelled, holding his head, "Impossible, impossible! He obviously only followed me for the sake of the family, he only behaved to please me for the sake of honor and favor, and he only became a casual guest for revenge. Da Cong Zhanyu never liked this king, he even... even hated me, how could he bear so much humiliation for me..."

That person was also hurt by him at the apex of his heart.But the other party was used to flattering and flattering, and had said thousands of sweet words, but none of them sounded like the truth.Over time, Bale Menggan also took back his heart, and no longer expected to like it or not.

Anyway, there are so many male favorites in the harem, and Ta Cong Zhanyu is just one of them.What kind of love is talked about in the royal court?Isn't it enough to concentrate on going to bed and give enough favors?

Yan Chongjin narrowed his eyes, and gave the last blow to the man in front of him who seemed to be insane.

"Before he died, Zhanyu asked what he had spent the past 20 years..."

"I don't know how old he is, but his life should only be 20 years. It starts with you and ends with you."

"--Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Bale Menggan suddenly raised his head to the sky and screamed wildly, crying for a long time, and finally vomited a big mouthful of blood, slowly lowered his head, and remained motionless.
