My Chinese ancestors

Chapter 595: While beating, while benefiting

No one left inside or outside? !

When the Samo people on the city wall heard these translated words, their faces turned pale and their legs were trembling. Although they were also soldiers, in front of Sakprut's army, they would all die if they went up.

As for the Selis army outside the city, even the Sakpruts couldn't win. Six thousand fought against four thousand, and the heads of the generals who were beaten were all beheaded.

At this time, Adal was also feeling quite stressed. Looking at the gazes of the soldiers around him, he was breathing heavily with anxiety.

'To go or not to go? '

"General Adal, none of us are afraid of death!" the deputy next to Adal suddenly said, "The Seris people in the east actually asked the general to go out of the city to their city, and threatened us with massacre of the city. As Samo people... subordinates I think we shouldn’t take risks with the civilians in the city!”

Seeing the serious look on the deputy's face, Adal opened his mouth slightly, and just as he was about to speak, the soldiers on the city wall also spoke one after another.

"General Adal, we cannot let the Selis people find excuses to attack the city!"

Adal looked at the eyes of a soldier. His scalp was numb. He clenched his fist and smashed the wall. "It is not something a soldier would do to endanger the civilians in the city. Tell the soldiers below to open the city gate. I will go out of the city and go to Selis with them." people’s military camps to meet their emperor.”

The scene that caught his eye made his eyes instantly shrink, and he felt a chill running through his body, causing goosebumps to appear on his skin.

At this time, his vision was obscured by shadows, and he quickly turned his head to look. He saw a huge, muscular Eastern giant, carrying two iron halberds on his back, and casually raised his fingers at him.

The Governor Cavalry on the side translated. Adal swallowed his saliva and glanced at the Satsuma soldiers over there. After being dragged out and hacked to death a few of them, he immediately quickened his pace and followed the ferocious Seris giant man.

"Yes!"

At this point, the expression of the Governor Cavalry was a little colder than when he was under the city wall, "General Adal, you go directly to the school grounds!"

In the distance, noisy crying, screaming and wailing sounds continued, and the air was vaguely filled with the smell of blood.

Adar suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart. These corpses seemed to be a coalition of nobles from the city-state, sent to the Seris people to fight together.

The knight was a governor of the Flying Qiang Cavalry. As the most knowledgeable soldier in the army, he had learned the Satsuma language with the officials after joining Satila.

Occasionally, you can see a few heads standing on wooden stakes, which look like Sakprut scouts.

Although he is not proficient in it, he can still listen and speak to some extent in ordinary speech.

After saying that, the governor rode his horse to one side and stretched out his hand in the direction of the school grounds with an expressionless expression on his horse, "The Great Xiazi is waiting for you there, waiting for you to give His Majesty an explanation!"

The city gate is a hanging board. You only need to stir the gears to lower it and set it on the moat to become a suspension bridge. It can not only function as a city gate, but also be used as a wooden bridge.

Heads tumbled, piled together with a pile of unprocessed heads.

"The people you sent."

Adal was trembling all over, and he instinctively wanted to speak out to stop him, but when the words came to his lips, he didn't have the courage to shout them out anyway.

He took a deep breath, glanced at the Eastern soldiers looking around, and walked through them, walking slowly, but still reaching the school grounds.

"well……"

Adal followed the Eastern cavalry all the way south. Along the way, he asked the other party from time to time, "Why does your emperor want to see him?" "Are you not satisfied with that batch of food? He can also apply for another batch from Emperor Satsuma." "

Subsequently, a large number of cavalry and infantry also retreated.

He gritted his teeth, cracked his whip, and galloped out, just like the God of War riding a white horse and wearing golden armor, riding out of the city alone to fight the enemy.

But as he approached the military camp, a large number of carriages came out, piled with corpses with their heads cut off. The clothes looked familiar to him. ,

"Barbarian, don't raise your head after seeing His Majesty. You are not qualified!"

"General Adal, I want to see you in the summer. You don't need to explain the reason to us. You just need to follow me."

As we passed by the gate of an unknown military camp, about a mile or two away, we could frequently see cavalry galloping in the wilderness and patrols one after another.

As far as the end of the world can be seen, there are camps, and there are many places where Eastern soldiers are logging and constructing. It has been seven or eight days, and the generals' camps have not been repaired yet.

The sound was like the sound of hammering iron: "Barbarians, come here, Your Majesty is on the stage."

Adal shut his mouth at the right time and kept silent for the rest of the journey. When he arrived at the Eastern Army Camp, fifty miles to the southwest, he finally saw how big the 300,000 soldiers and horses were stationed.

At this time, there were many Selis generals sitting on the high platform, admiring the killing scene below.

If he didn't go, he would probably be dead soon.

Adal smelled blood, and his legs became even more sore and weak after dismounting. He had no idea why the other party was suddenly angry and killed all the coalition soldiers.

Seeing that no one spoke to persuade him to stay, Adal had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk down the inner city wall in the scorching sun. Every step he took, his legs felt a little weak.

The Eastern knight who spoke Satsuma outside the city gate did not make any move to attack when he saw him coming out. He just turned his horse's head and led the way.

The body was immediately picked up and thrown into the carriage parked there. Half of the bodies were already piled inside.

How could he be killed by the other party?
"They are..." Adal passed the gate, and two more carriages came over. He glanced at the headless corpses piled in the carriage, and couldn't help but ask the governor's horse who was leading the way.

Who knows if he will come back alive after going to Selis Military Camp.

In less than a moment, a dozen Selis soldiers walked into the crowd, randomly picked up some people, said words he didn't understand, and dragged them out of the crowd. Then they raised their swords and dragged them out. The head of the Samaan was chopped off.

Hearing the noise, everyone turned their heads to look. A'dal was trembling with fear, and his eyes gradually moved, and finally landed on the figure sitting in the front of the crowd, sitting on the big chair on the edge of the high platform.

Adal walked down the city wall, climbed onto his horse, and watched the soldiers work hard to turn the gears and lower the suspension bridge. His heart was beating wildly.

Is it...

After listening to the translated words, Adal responded softly, and then followed the other party around the stacks of soldiers in front, and walked up the steps of the high platform step by step.

A group of Satsuma people were kneeling around the huge school grounds. These people were all connected by ropes and their hands were bound. Their hair was gray or their bodies were mutilated.

"Give the general of Satsuma a seat!"

Su Chen raised his hand, and the waiter brought a low stool and placed it not far away. He cut off a piece of lamb meat and ate it in his mouth, still watching batches of Satsuma people being pulled out and killed on the spot.

Screams and cries were heard, and Adar walked to the side tremblingly, saluted the Eastern emperor with Samoan etiquette, and then sat down at the seat.

A civil servant who was acting as a translator walked up to him and whispered: "Everything you said, I will truthfully convey to Da Xiazi."

Adal nodded cautiously, his eyes wandering, wondering whether he should look at the Emperor of the East over there.

After a moment of silence, he was about to speak, but the Eastern Emperor over there spoke first.

"Your name is Adal, right? Do you know what mistake the Samo people below made?"

"Back to the Eastern Emperor, this is exactly what I want to ask."

Adal still knew in his heart that the other party's call to come over must have something to do with these coalition soldiers, or maybe it was because the other party had violated the military discipline of the Eastern Empire.

However, the answer he received almost scared him out of his wits.

Su Chen stared at the carnage below for a while, then a smile suddenly appeared on his face, "The Satsuma people should be very powerful on the battlefield, right?"

Adal didn't understand why the other party suddenly asked this. He looked at the killed Samoans below and said: "The Samoans are not powerful..."

"If they are not powerful, why are there so many old pawns?" When the word 'pawn' fell, the smile on Su Chen's face faded and his eyes became sharp.

"I thought that since you were so brave, you would still be able to go to the battlefield and kill the enemy when you are old!"

"Then why..." Su Chen looked at him expressionlessly, then raised his hand and waved it away——

Bang.

The chair shattered instantly, and Adal, who was sitting on the chair, flew out and rolled on the high platform, not stopping until he reached the edge of the platform.

Su Chen stood up slowly and walked towards the other party. The white cloak was swaying in the air and flying in the wind.

"What's the point of sending a group of old soldiers to our army? Your emperor of the Satsuma people is looking down on me and my soldiers?"

Adal, who was hit hard, was not seriously injured, but not light either. He supported the ground and struggled several times to get up, but failed. But now, after listening to the translator, he realized that he had been tricked, and the group of Satsuma veterans on the school field had also been tricked.

No wonder he was suddenly promoted to governor. It turned out that he would be regarded as a scapegoat.

"Those... nobles... are hateful..."

Adal couldn't figure out why he would do such a thing to destroy the alliance between the two countries, even though he could ally with the Selis people and take back the city taken by Sakprut.

In his field of vision, the Eastern Emperor coming in front blocked the sunlight above his head.

"You despise me and my army, and insult my army with old grain and gravel. General Adal, what do you think we should do?"

"Emperor of the East!" Adal also tried his best. He struggled to get up and roared in a deep voice: "I don't know at all. Although the coalition army passed through Kadila, they were recruited by nobles from various cities. There is no need to After passing through my hands... As for that batch of food... I don't know anything about it."

"Your words are not very convincing." Su Chen spoke slowly and spoke forcefully and majestically, "But it may not be impossible. However, I am not a soft-hearted person. If I do something wrong, I must receive the punishment I deserve. punishment!”

"Emperor of the East...what do you want to do with me?"

Adal knew he couldn't escape this disaster, so he simply knelt down on one knee.

"The punishment is already in progress. I will replace you and eliminate these old soldiers for the Satsuma army."

Su Chen's tone paused and his eyes were cold and stern: "But it's not enough."

"What does Your Majesty want to do?" Over there, A'dal was so stared at by Su Chen that he didn't dare to raise his head.

"I need the heads of all the nobles in Satsuma City, as well as the heads of your emperor, to calm my anger."

When it came to this point, Su Chen simply tore off the disguise and said the words so fiercely that Adar, who was opposite him, stood stupidly on the spot.

The few thousand people left on the school grounds were almost all killed.

Just as he was talking, a fast horse came back from outside. After dismounting at the edge of the school field, he ran quickly, bringing the bloody smell below to the high platform.

The scout stepped forward and knelt down on one side: "Your Majesty, something happened to the team escorting the grain behind."

Su Chen pursed his lips and looked at the scout with cold eyes.

"speak!"

The surrounding generals suddenly stood up and looked at the scout.

"Your Majesty, the Yuezhou soldiers and Shengnu people in the rear group were attacked by a barbarian army. Before the Mongolian light cavalry rushed to the rescue, the enemy set fire to many carriages and then withdrew."

"Can you catch up with the enemy?"

"No, the other party withdrew to the west and hid in the mountains over there. The other party is very familiar with the place. But it is certain that the flag raised by the other party is Sakprut!"

Dian Wei, Lu Bu, Xiang Yu and others around them looked fiercely, and even Adal over there had different expressions. He seemed at a loss.

Su Chen showed no emotion at all as he walked past Adal and passed the scout. "I mentioned before that I had a bad premonition, but I didn't expect it to come so fast. How much did we lose?"

"Half of the food and grass transported from Satila was burned. The slave army suffered casualties of more than 1,000 people, and the Yuezhou army soldiers suffered casualties of about 2,000."

"It's not bad, the damage is not serious."

After listening to the report, Su Chen took a few steps back and forth.

"The other party withdrew immediately after succeeding, without any hesitation. It can be seen that they had a premeditated plan, and they might attack our army's baggage again."

Su Chen raised a smile on his lips: "This is to disrupt the rhythm of our army's attack and never fall into passivity. I just said that there are still some Western barbarians who know how to use troops."

"Your Majesty, next, how to guard against this army along the way?" Ma Chao asked softly.

"No!"

Su Chen stopped beside Adal with his hands behind his back. After thinking for a moment, a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth: "The plan that I discussed with the Prime Minister remains unchanged. We cannot be dragged into a passive situation by them. Since they like to make sneak attacks, then they Those who fight them, we fight ours.”

"This..." The generals became even more confused.

"I want to control the rhythm of the war in my own hands. Since they have their eyes on our long-term supply and think it will drag us down and disrupt our arrangements, then we will change it so that they cannot see what we are going to do. , don’t understand what we are going to do next!”

Su Chen's eyes were calm, and there was a smile in his eyes, which was a look of disdain.

"Let's see who falls into passivity first."

For a moment, Su Chen turned his attention to Lu Bu, Ma Chao, and Xiang Yu who were sitting on the seat. "Three generals, each of you will take a map and go down to the Central Asian Plateau to enter Sakprut's territory. Whoever is closest will win." Kill it and make as much chaos as possible over there. I will ask Subotai to cooperate with you. This is what his cavalry is best at!"

"Here!"

The three people raised their hands and responded in unison.

Su Chen asked people to bring drinks to the three of them. After all, going deep into the enemy's territory alone was a risky move. Su Chen might not dare to do this to other Chinese generals, but if Lu Bu, Ma Chao, and Xiang Yu were to lead the army, If it's still a cavalry, that's quite reassuring.

He picked up the drink and saluted the three of them: "Three generals are going to be in danger, so they must escape unscathed!"

Xiang Yu, Lu Bu, and Ma Chao nodded, and then drank the wine in the bowl in one breath. Lu Bu left first. Xiang Yu called Long Qi and asked him to stay with Su Chen and listen to him. Ma Chao did the same. After all, Pang was deep in the enemy's territory. De and Ma Dai did not play a big role.

The moment the three of them got off the high platform, Adal, who seemed to be regretful, finally couldn't help but speak. When he said "Your Majesty in the East...", before he finished speaking, what caught his sight was the person who turned around. The coming Eastern Emperor, and the empty bowl in the Emperor's hand.

Bah!
The pottery bowl turned hard and hit Adal on the forehead. The broken pottery fragments flew away. Adal covered his forehead and stumbled a few steps. He stepped on the ground and fell directly from the high platform.

Another bang!
Adal hit the hard soil in a big shape, and blood was flowing from his hair, staining the ground red. However, he was not dead. After all, he was a general of Kadila, stationed in a small border town. After all, there is courage.

"This is your punishment, if you are still alive, get up!" Su Chen stood on the edge of the high platform, looking down at the Satsuma general who was struggling on the ground, "I don't have time to deal with your emperor and nobles now, but that doesn't mean That’s the end of it!”

Su Chen flicked his cloak, turned and left the high platform.

"But you can act on my behalf, kill Harabitos, bring their heads to me, and I will make you the emperor of the Samoans."

Soon after, the huge military camp that stretched for more than ten miles, the cavalry came out with a lot of smoke and dust, and divided into three groups on various roads, fields, and grasslands, with light cavalry wearing fur coats following behind them, heading west.

Revenge begins.

The huge cavalry launched a crushing offensive like a resurrected monster. They left the plateau and entered the nearest province of Sakprut. A large number of light cavalry on the grassland burned, killed and looted along the way, spreading wildly.

The corpses of countless Sakprut people were laid out along the route of the iron cavalry.

……

In mid-March, a flag with a giant axe, men and horses appeared again on the Central Asian plateau, behind the Eastern army.

According to the previous fighting method, he rushed towards the Shengnu Army in Anuhu's hands. However, this time the opponent was on guard.

And for some unknown reason, the two Sakprut legions here cleverly withdrew from the battlefield before reinforcements from the Salis people arrived, and fled back to the mountains where they came from.

"Fortunately, the prophet Moses gave us the foreknowledge in advance..."

An army of more than 10,000 people rested in the forest. Under the trees in the forest, there were all Sakprut people resting and replenishing water and food.

The two people speaking were the generals of these two armies with different banners.

"Geraint...I don't know if it will be successful over there."

The general who spoke had a thin face and a tall body. He was none other than Galahad, known as the Seat of Disaster, one of the Twelve Knights of the Round Table.

The Geraint he talks about is also a member of the Knights of the Round Table, commanding the Fourth Legion of the Conquerors.

"Salys is already on guard."

The man opposite Galahad has a big beard, thick limbs, and a stocky build, just like a dwarf in mythology.

He is the commander of the Second Centaur Legion, Sai Hu.
