The living environment on the grassland is extremely bad. This is especially true for the grassland after the White Disaster. Liu Bao buried himself under the snow and hid all night. Although he escaped the search by the Han army and Huchuquan, he has neither Horses, no food, and even the most important bows and arrows of the steppe people, wanting to walk back to their tribe on two legs is simply harder than climbing.
Liu Bao had no choice. He gritted his teeth, firmly grasped the only scimitar beside him, and walked towards his tribe on the waist-deep snow. On top of his head, a group of crows circled. If I don’t go, I don’t know if he was attracted by the bloody smell on his body, or if he could see that he was already weak and dying. Anyway, he was waiting for the moment he fell, and then he came to have a good meal.
After the army set off, Yu Fuluo always felt a little uneasy, and couldn't help but let out a violent cough. The Hun girl waiting on the side saw it and quickly handed over a pottery bowl. Even in the upper class of the Han Dynasty, it was exquisite. The white porcelain bowl is also a precious luxury. The Xiongnu tribes living on the grassland have no way of obtaining such treasures. Even if they are Xiongnu Shanyu, they can only continue to use the pottery bowl.
The pottery bowl contained a kind of black medicine. It was a concoction made from several herbs on the grassland. It exuded an unpleasant smell. Yufro frowned. The medicine was really bitter. It’s hard to swallow, he doesn’t want to drink,
Yuvro waved his hand and asked the maid to retreat. He picked up the cloth bag Liu Bao gave him from the couch and put it under his nose. The fragrance made him intoxicated. Whenever his mind was a little drowsy, Yu Fro took out the cloth bag and smelled it, and he felt refreshed. He couldn't help but doubt what Liu Bao said. How could such a good thing be a poisonous weed
It was late at night, and Yuvro, who had been coughing for most of the night, finally fell asleep. In his sleep, Yuvro vaguely heard two screams from someone, and suddenly woke up and sat up on the couch. Repeatedly asked: "Come here, what happened?"
This is Shanyu’s king’s account, not comparable to the tents in which ordinary herders live. There are maids who take turns on duty day and night outside. Hearing Yuvro’s cry, the two maids walked in panickedly, lying on the ground, shuddering. Said: "Please give orders,"
Yuvro saw their sleepy eyes and knew that they must have fallen asleep secretly. He didn't hear what he was saying. He was about to get angry, but caused a cough and gasping for a long time, so he slowly said: "Not happy yet. Go out and have a look."
Suddenly, when the tent was picked, a Huns stumbled in and said intermittently: "Shan Yu, no... it's not good, the enemy... the enemy attack..."
Yuvro was about to ask what happened, but saw that the man fell to the ground with a "plop", with a feather arrow stuck in his heart, shaking himself.
This man is neatly dressed and he didn't just run out of the felt tent. He was the guard on duty tonight. Now that they knew that Hu Chuquan would be unfavorable to their tribe, how could Fu Luo not take precautions? Well, after Liu Bao led the army out, he also strengthened the guards at the camp.
Hearing the words "enemy attack", Yu Fuluo was shocked in a cold sweat. Most of the young and strong men in the tribe had been taken out by Liu Bao. Except for the old and weak women and children, there were only more than 500 young men in the tribe. The strong man, these more than 500 people are his personal guards of the Xiongnu Shanyu,
Yuvro glanced at the man who fell on the ground and said in a deep voice: "Quickly, get your clothes."
He wished to rush out of the account now to find out, but he is getting older and sick for a long time, plus the ice and snow outside. If he goes out wearing two single clothes like this, he is afraid that before the enemy rushes in front of him, he is already It was half dead, so the first thing Yuvro thought of was to put on his fox jacket. However, this also shows that Yuvro is indeed a not easy character. Facing the enemy attack, there is not much panic. ,
However, the two maids could not be as calm as Yuvro did. The shouts of killing and screams were endless, and the hands of the two maids were trembling, and the fox leather jacket couldn't be worn by Uvro. Body,
At this moment, the tent door was opened again, and a group of soldiers wrapped in white cloaks swarmed in, headed by a tall and handsome young general.
Yuvro pushed away the two panicked maids in annoyance, and sat down on the low couch dejectedly, some of them couldn't believe his eyes, and blurted out, "You are Han Chinese,"
His tent is the king's tent of the Xiongnu. Not only is it the largest one among all the tents in the camp, but the golden tent exudes a seductive light even in the middle of the night. Ma Chao knows how to capture the thief first. The reason, before entering this camp, he locked the target,
At this time, most of the people in the camp were still asleep, and the guards at night were also dozing off again and again. Ma Chao took advantage of their lax defenses to launch an attack, just like the scene he played in the Liu Bao tribe, but, This is the king's account of the Huns. When they heard the news of the enemy attack, many Huns didn’t care about putting on their clothes, grabbing scimitars, bows and arrows, and rushed out of the tent, desperately blocking the offensive of the Han army.
At this time, Ma Chao had already grabbed a war horse and rushed straight to Froe’s king’s account. Along the way, I don’t know how many Huns and women fell under his spear. The horse wielded the spear like a long dragon and a giant python. The surging fighting spirit made the Xiongnu men and women who rushed over shudder, and couldn't stop him from moving forward.
When Ma Chao attacked the king's account, the whole battle was over. In the king's account were not only their tribal leaders, but also Shan Yu from the Huns. Shan Yu fell into the hands of the enemy, and they continued to resist. , It will only speed up Shan Yu’s death. The Huns men and women who ran out of the tent threw away their weapons and stood shivering in the cold wind. In fact, even if they continue to resist, they will end up in a different place. There will be no other results. At most, it will increase the number of casualties to the Han army. After all, they are all awakened in their sleep, and they are not good at hand-to-hand combat.
Ma Chao glanced at the old Hun who was coughing again and again, and said contemptuously: "Yu Fro, you surrender,"
Yufro let out a long sigh, and suddenly grabbed the scimitar beside the pillow. It was a sharp scimitar with many colorful gems inlaid on the handle. It was the treasure of the Xiongnu Shanyu, following him again.
Ma Chao took a step forward, pointed his spear, and sternly shouted: "Yu Fu Luo, you still want to defeat the corner and fail to resist,"
Yuvro suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, and said, "The Xiongnu would rather die than surrender,"
Ma Chao grabbed his heart, the spear was about to be swung out, but he saw Froe raised his neck, the scimitar slashed through his throat, and a bloody arrow was shot out. Following the two handmaid screams, Yu Fro was screaming. Soft, fell on the couch,
Seeing a soldier approaching Froe’s first level, Ma Chao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, he is also a hero. Leave him a whole body."
For Yuvroh finally chose to commit suicide, Ma Chao also secretly paid tribute to him. He stepped forward and bowed to Yuvro's corpse, then took off the machete in his hand and turned out of the tent.
The old and weak women and children in the camp had been rushed together. They were looking at their king account with anxiety. Suddenly, a young man strode out and raised the machete in his hand high against the torch. The blood stains on the blade are faintly visible. For these Huns, this scimitar could not be more familiar to them. This is Shan Yu's saber, a symbol of the Xiongnu's royal power. This knife fell into the hands of the Han generals, indicating that their Shan Yu had been met by accident.
Almost as soon as he saw Ma Chao’s machete in his hand, all the Huns in the camp knelt down and cried.
Ma Chao looked around for a while, his heart was full of pride. He was born in Xiliang and is half of the Qiang descent. He has dealt with the nomads since he was a child. He also knows the situation of the Huns quite well. This machete in his hand Once in the hands of the Xiongnu Shanyu toss and circulate, there were smooth handovers, and there were also arrogances, but they never fell into the hands of the Han people. Today, he did it. This is the first thing he has done. Bring the machete back to Xiangyang, the novice dedicated to Liu Xin,
What surprised the old and weak women and children in the Yufro tribe was that these Han people did not massacre them, but only "liberated" the slaves in their tribe, and adopted a different strategy from dealing with the Liu Bao tribe.
In Liu Bao’s tribe, Ma Chao let those “liberated” slaves turn over and become masters. The original Huns family has been reorganized into a new family. That’s because Liu Bao was warlike by nature and plundered a large number of slaves in the tribe. The number of slaves actually reached twice that of the Yufro tribe, while the size of his tribe was less than half that of the Yufro tribe. In this way, those "liberated" slaves were able to control the entire tribe. Moreover, Ma Chao It also merged Liu Bao’s tribe with Yehan’s tribe. With the addition of Hemuer and his tribe, there is no need to worry about tribal control.
Yuvro’s tribe is different. It is impossible to completely control the entire tribe by relying on these "liberated" slaves, and there are no other tribes around that can merge with this tribe. Now these people are not resisting because the Han army has returned. Now, when the Han army leaves, it is hard to predict what will happen.
Ma Chao is familiar with the habits of nomadic peoples. He allows those "liberated" young and strong men to choose unmarried girls from the Fro tribe to form new families without completely destroying the original family structure. In this way, these The slaves who were "liberated" became in-laws with Yuvro’s tribe, and they were able to integrate well into the Vro tribe without being too much rejected. After all, there is no more in the Yuvro tribe. There are a few young and strong men, and they also need to replenish some fresh blood. Otherwise, even if they resist and regain control of the tribe, they will become targets of bullying by other tribes, or even be plundered into slaves by other tribes. This is the grassland. The cruel law of the weak eating the strong,
After dealing with these things, Ma Chao stretched out and walked towards the king's account of Yufro. After running around on the snowy field for so long, he needs to take a good rest and reward himself by the way.
"General, no," a soldier stopped him, and stopped talking.
