Long live the general

When the other three routes were encountering large Huns or chasing remnants of Huns, Li Yi still did not encounter any Huns.

He held his breath in his heart, and his temper became more and more serious. Even Li Hai didn't dare to provoke him.No one is more eager than Li Yi to meet the Xiongnu, have a battle, and prove himself with actual performance.

If this trip is fruitless, should we continue to go back and become a sheriff?Or be questioned and resigned by His Majesty, not even a county guard.

The glory of the Li family has been dimmed for a long time. His ancestors used to have a great reputation, but now there are only a few jokes left.If it was during the Xia Dynasty, or during the founding of Dayue, he was capable enough to be a Marquis.But even now, he's been through a lot of wars, he's been beaten a lot, and he's been fighting all his life.

Why, even someone like Zhao Ping'an can become the General of the North, but he can't get any rewards.

This is the deep pain and anger that Li Yi felt during the entire reign of Emperor Yueyun.

He claims to be better than most of the generals in Dayue, but in any case, no matter how many times he has experienced? How many wars? Life is constantly going from one county to another, taking over the mess. After finally dealing with it, Emperor Yueyun asked him to go to the next county without stopping.

He really didn't want to attribute his failure to something as illusory as luck, but other than that? Is there any explanation?Therefore, his fighting style became more and more fierce, and he took personal risks many times. During the trials of life and death, both his ability to control the army and his personal strength became stronger and stronger.

He can only go so far.

But he was almost fifty, and half of his body was buried in the soil. Even if he could still fight, how long could he carry this scarred body.

The cold reception during Emperor Yueyun's time had already dampened his ambition, although he would often feel angry and unwilling at night.But maybe this is fate, he can't be appreciated, he is not liked by others, he watched the generals of the entire Dai Viet get weaker and weaker, many people like Zhao Pingan lost their ambitions, old people like Murong An Will gradually withdraw from the battlefield, even the civil servants are a group of veterans who are constantly entangled with the forces behind them, and have never put forward strong political arguments.

Today, Dai Viet can be called incompetent in power!

...Although Huo Yi is also capable, he is not a sheriff like him.

Li Yi was full of complaints like this, and spent most of his life unwillingly and patiently. Just when he thought that he was going to go on like this for the rest of his life, Dayue just went on like this, and Zhou Zhenyan ascended the throne.

Cintiq has an idea that drives him crazy.

"General, there is a small city in front of you, which belongs to the Kingdom of Qiuci." Li Hai drove over with a map in his hand, and said, "The Kingdom of Qiuci is very small, and it is one of the vassal states of the Huns. Surrender to Dai Viet."

Li Hai didn't say anything else, the country of Kucha is far away from Dayue, and it's far from Li Yi's original route, God knows how they got here.

It's normal for these small countries to adapt to the wind. They don't have the ability to fight, so naturally they will listen to whoever is stronger.The bigger and stronger it is, the bigger it is, and the bigger it is, the more the Xiongnu can't stop it, so it's the Huns. The weak kingdom between the two empires, how can it have the right to choose.

Holding your thighs is also a way of survival. Being a chess piece is better than being a chessboard.

After walking in the desert for so long, Li Yi finally saw a living person. He was so excited that he ordered, "Come on!"

It was not easy for cavalry to attack a city, but Li Yi had a wealth of experience in combat. He had fought in defense as well as in offense.

Half an hour later, Li Yi stood in the city lord's mansion. The original city lord was pressed in front of him, gave him a gloomy look, and then knelt down listlessly.

The heart of the city lord? It's broken.

When a city is in close proximity to a violent and powerful nomad, the outcome is obvious.And the only consolation in the heart of the city lord is that the Huns can only plunder and kill people, and they don't want to occupy a certain city.The Huns are also self-aware, knowing that they are kings only on the grasslands, so the city lord gives some money to the Huns every year, and the Huns will fight a little lighter.

Many years ago, the Kucha Kingdom was a subsidiary state of Dai Viet, and they also wrote to Dai Viet for help, but Dai Viet did not reply to them at that time, nor did they send troops to help defend against the Huns, so the Kucha Kingdom had no choice but to surrender to the Huns—— With the cruelty of the Xiongnu, if it was slower, Kucha would be destroyed.

Decades passed, the city owner never thought that he would see Dai Viet's army again, and it was very aggressive and the visitors were not friendly.

Honestly speaking, a small country like Kucha is more willing to attach itself to Dai Viet.Da Yue talks about etiquette, morality, and many rules of conduct and speech. As long as you respect Da Yue and give some offerings, you will be able to live in peace—the offerings that Da Yue wants are just a matter of form. an attitude of willingness to obey.

Dayue even opened a trade route, and they could exchange some local specialties for silk porcelain and food from Dayue.

The Huns are pure, barbaric, greedy robbers.

The city lord didn't know whether he should cry or laugh, Li Yi yelled from above, and the city lord fell to the ground.

"You and other small countries used to respect me, Da Yue, and called themselves ministers, but now they are subservient to the Huns!" Li Yi patted the table and glared angrily: "Breach of faith! The behavior of a villain!"

The lord of the city said aggrievedly: "However, 50 years ago, when the Huns invaded, the previous king wrote to ask for help, but Dai Viet did not send troops..."

Li Yi was speechless for a moment. At that time, Emperor Yueyun had not yet ascended the throne, and Dai Viet's basic national policy was still to cultivate health and rest.They received the letter from King Kucha, but they didn't dare to type it.

Li Hai patted his father's shoulder reassuringly, and said, "General, let me talk to him."

He helped the city lord up and comforted him a few words. The city lord's expression gradually eased. They left the city lord's mansion. It took about half an hour for Li Hai to come back.

Li Yi asked: "What did you say to him, why is it longer than the time I broke the city?"

"He will provide food and routes for our next march, and will write a letter to King Kucha, persuading him to cooperate with Dai Viet and fight against the Xiongnu."

Li Yi was a little surprised: "How did you do it?"

"I just told him that Da Yue is back." Li Hai said calmly.

When they left, they re-erected the Xuan Banner of Dayue outside the city.

On the mysterious flag, there is a "Yue" character like a gold and iron horse.

The city lord stood on the low city wall and watched them leave with supplies, feeling bitter, sour and powerless in his heart.

People in Yue said, "I would rather be a dog of peace than a person in troubled times." For him, it can also be said that "I would rather be a person of Dayue than be the king of Kucha".

A weak kingdom is like a baby with thin feet and two burly men fighting next to it. The aftermath alone is enough to destroy them.

At this time, looking down from the top of the desert, one can see that the four armies of Dayue have completely deviated from the original plan, and their routes have gradually become strange.

The army led by Huo Yi set off from Xihebian County, and followed Huyan Baya for a circle. After attacking the Huns camp at night, the large army was led by Huo Yi to Longcheng.Nine thousand cavalrymen fought for a whole day, broke through Longcheng, killed four thousand enemies, captured one thousand, and tens of thousands of cattle, sheep and horses.After breaking through the Dragon City, Huo Yi walked back with the captives and trophies in his hands. He expected to return to Dayue in half a month.

Except for the unexpected Dragon City, Huo Yi's route has always been very accurate without any deviation.

In contrast, Li Yi's route looked extremely distorted.He didn't know it, but he had been walking towards the left without knowing it. As a result, he walked more and more sideways, and walked out a strange route in the desert, and he didn't meet any Xiongnu soldiers.Until encountering the small town of Kucha, Li Yi (mainly with the help of Li Hai) corrected the route, broke through many small countries along the way, and planted all the mysterious flags of Dayue in these distant territories.Li Yi didn't turn around until she couldn't take out the Xuanqi anymore.If you don't get lost this time, you can return to Dai Viet in about a month.

And the one with the craziest forward route was the [-] Pioneer Battalion led by Qiu Hongguang.

After the time limit given by Huo Yi, Qiu Hongguang caught up with Huyan and pulled his teeth, but at the same time, he also encountered an army of 3000 Huns.

With one thousand against three thousand, Qiu Hongguang was not prepared to run away, he was even extremely excited.The arrows smelted by the Huns are heavier and sharper than Da Yue, and have special marking functions.Dai Viet had stronger armor, and Qiu Hongguang took advantage of the difference between the two sides to sneak attack the barracks at night, using light, fire and loud noise to let their horses run away. In close combat, the armored Da Yue cavalry took advantage.

In this way, he forcibly penetrated the army, and the Huns escaped without organizing an effective counterattack in the dark.

Qiu Hongguang thought in his heart, it seems that not every general of the Xiongnu is as good as Huyan pulling his teeth? If they are at that level, Da Yue will be able to fight every general is unique to Huo Yi.

Qiu Hongguang killed nearly 600 Xiongnu, and liquidated his own losses. Da Yue lost more than [-] cavalry.

What is the situation of similar strength, that is, the two sides have almost the same strength, and after fighting for a long time, the losses are almost the same.

With one thousand against three thousand, the opponent escaped. Although the loss was huge, it was an achievement worth boasting about.

Calculate the time, he should go back.

But Qiu Hongguang had an even crazier idea in his mind. He always felt that he could continue to fight.

Qiu Hongguang did not keep any prisoners, and he was not interested in the cattle and sheep. He looked at the only 300 people left in him. After a fierce battle, these people seemed extremely excited, and the fierce light in their eyes was like a wild beast. Like a wolf.

There is what kind of general, there is what kind of soldiers.

There is a vast desert in front of you. Do you want to go forward or go back? Go and meet General Huo?

Qiu Hongguang was caught in a tangle.
