Memoirs of the Heavenly Khan

Chapter 66 Huaishuo Romance Incident

Wuchuan.

Wei Kegu showed no distrust on his face towards the returning Heba Yun.

"When the Shuozhou army attacked Baidao City, you led your troops in pursuit. We haven't seen you for over ten days. Where have you been?"

Heba Yun bowed and said:

"To be honest, General, I was captured and taken to Yunzhong."

At its peak, Wuchuan Town had a population of tens of thousands, including Xianbei nobles, Han Chinese who had surrendered, and Chile nobles. Wuchuan Town and Huaishuo Town to the west formed a cornerstone of defense against the Rouran.

After the Northern Wei Dynasty moved its capital, the Six Garrisons weakened and its population continued to decline.

Today, the military fortress that once terrified the Rouran people has lost its former glory, and all that remains is the helplessness of things changing and people having changed.

However, those who can stay in the end are veterans and brave generals who have been through many battles.

Just as the Xianbei and Han people in Luoyang formed a group, the same was true for the Xianbei and Han people in the Six Garrisons.

With blood ties and marriage as the bond, they formed an alliance. In comparison, the unity of the Six Garrisons was far greater than that of Luoyang.

That was the trust forged in the harsh weather of the northern border, during bloody battles with foreign races such as the Rouran.

Wei Kegu looked at Heba Yun and still didn't believe it.

"With your ability, Heba Yun, who can capture you?"

"It's embarrassing to say this, but that person was originally from Huaishuo Town, but was transferred to another town early on, so he's not well-known among the six towns."

Hearing that he was from Huaishuo Town, Wei Kegu seemed to understand.

"Then how did you get away?"

"I dare not hide it from you, General. The Northern Expedition Commander-in-Chief, Li Shengui, personally released me and asked me to bring you a message."

"What's the news?"

"The Rouran people are heading south!"

After hearing the news, everyone's expression changed drastically.

The situation was different now. The Six Garrisons were no longer backed by the Northern Wei court. If the Wei army joined forces with the Rouran, the Six Garrisons would be caught in a pincer attack from both the north and the south, leaving them isolated and helpless.

"Why did he ask you to bring this news?"

Heba Yun said honestly:
"Grand Commander Li Shengui is kind and benevolent. He asked me to come back to give us a chance of survival. If we are willing to surrender..."

Wei Kegu angrily interrupted Heba Yun, and the atmosphere in the room became extremely tense.

"We have been loyal for generations, and have made great contributions to the court. But how has the court treated us? Now, in order to deal with us, the court is even colluding with the Rouran. Is such a court still worthy of our loyalty?"

Wei Kegu's expression changed, and his words were filled with disdain and contempt.

"That's the Ruro! I'd rather die than surrender!"

"But if we don't surrender, where will we live?"

The Baidao controlled by Wei Kegu had just been plundered and suffered serious material losses. The environment facing Wuchuan was now extremely dangerous.

"We are from the Six Towns. We would rather die like heroes than live like dogs!"

Wei Kegu took two steps forward, his aura completely overwhelming Heba Yun in front of him.

Just as Wei Kegu was about to take further action, Heba Duba came out, stood between Wei Kegu and Heba Yun, and protected Heba Yun.

"My son is rude, please forgive me, General."

Looking at Heba Duba, Wei Kegu finally breathed a sigh of relief and did not do anything to Heba Yun!
"The True King is the only hero in this world, and only he can lead us out of this predicament! Our only option now is to inform the True King of this situation as quickly as possible and let him make the final decision."

Yuwen Gong stood aside, watching this scene, and couldn't help but feel murderous in his heart.

Wei Kegu, you are too stubborn!
Huaishuo Town.

"My Lord, is it true what you said about that old fellow Po Liu Han Kongque wants to surrender to us?"

"He's desperate, we have to make him jump faster." At the city gate.

“It still tastes familiar!”

Hou Jing returned to his hometown, took a deep breath, and was filled with nostalgia.

Beside him, Li Shuang urged.

"It's time to go. Stop dawdling."

Huaishuo Town should have been a heavily guarded place today, but the person guarding the city gate exchanged a glance with Hou Jing and let him and Li Shuang in without much inspection.

"Who is this guy? Do you know him?"

"Wei Jing, He Liuhun's brother-in-law."

Li Shuang was still a little excited when he heard this name.

Huaishuo Town was under siege for more than half a year, and the facilities in the city were destroyed and have not yet been repaired. Many townspeople have set up tents at the addresses of their original homes, which looks very depressed.

"Didn't you say that He Liuhun wasn't in Huaishuo when it was under siege? Why did he come back after Huaishuo Town surrendered?"

"He Liuhun's sister and brother-in-law were both in Huaishuo at the time, so he had no choice but to come back. He still values ​​friendship!"

Although Hou Jing had not returned for many years, he was still quite familiar with the situation of the residents of Huaishuo Town.

"He Liuhun's home is just ahead! My Lord, we have to find him for what we need to do!"

Unlike the others who only lived in tents, Gao Huan's home was a house. It was obvious that the walls had just been repaired.

In Huaishuo Town today, all kinds of supplies are in short supply, especially construction materials, most of which have been requisitioned.

Gao Huan was able to get it, which shows that he was very resourceful.

Just as Hou Jing was about to shout a few times, he heard a woman's scolding from inside the house.

"He Liuhun, you are such a heartless person! I know you are still in contact with that little devil named Han."

"Zhaojun, please listen to my explanation. There's really nothing between Han Zhihui and me. That's all in the past!"

In the room, the sound of a woman crying could be heard faintly.

"You heartless person! I ignored my parents' advice and married you. Did I ever dislike your family? After we got married, you used my dowry to fool around with your friends all day long, which is fine. But that little witch named Han is already married, and you're still obsessed with her and flirting with her. Are you worthy of me?"

"Zhaojun, is it really not what you think?"

"Get out of here! I don't want to see you again!"

There was a sound of things being smashed in the house. After a commotion, King Gao fled from the house.

After being driven out of the house by his wife, King Gao was seen without even putting on his clothes. He looked extremely disheveled, with two scratches on his face.

"He Liuhun, a beauty's favor is not so easy to accept!"

Hou Jing's laughter attracted Gao Huan's attention.

"You're not in Mayi, enjoying yourself, so why are you back in Huaishuo?"

"Isn't this because I miss you, He Liuhun, and everyone else?"

Hou Jing smiled and introduced Li Shuang.

"This is Brother Ono, whom I mentioned in the letter. He is my friend. I came here to discuss an important matter with you, He Liuhun."

"Brother Ohno?"

Gao Huan looked at Li Shuang, and Li Shuang also looked at Gao Huan.

Prince Gao is worthy of being Prince Gao. Although he was kicked out of the house by his wife at this moment, his clothes were disheveled and his hair was messy, his appearance was still amazing.

Li Shuang was shocked at first glance.

There is actually someone in this world who can be as handsome as him!
terrible!
