Chapter 32: The Goshawk Faces the Saint
Chang'an City was a sensation, and there were dense people standing in front of the door of Weiyang Palace.
From ancient times to the present, the habit of Chang'an people to see the excitement has never changed, and 10,000 heads have been stacked into a huge Beijing view. The soldiers tried to twist the faces of the heads outward, and the cold north wind froze the grinning heads like bricks, which was very conducive to piling up.
People shrank their heads in fright, and watched excitedly and curiously.
A group of Hun women wearing dirty leather robes and combing braids knelt in front of the door of Weiyang Palace. Black-armored warriors with horsewhips walked among them, and anyone who knelt badly was whipped on his head. There is no pity at all.
The beaten Hun girl didn't dare to cry, so she could only kneel there and sobbed slowly.
Gulbel knelt on the hard stone floor, and her luck was bad as she knelt at the seams of the stone slabs. The cold slate hurt my knees, but it didn't hurt much now. Because my legs were numb, as if I didn't belong to me anymore.
My back hurts and my back hurts. As soon as he sat his ass on his heels, a whip snapped on his arm. Although there is a leather robe in the way, the frozen stiff arm still hurts the heart.
In front of the palace gate, there were many people holding a board, and these people seemed to be the head of the Han people. They whispered to the head of the Jingguan and pointed at their Hun sisters.
Thinking of what happened to the Han family after the woman was brought to the grassland in the past, Gu'er Besu beat a drum in her heart. Their fate was tragic, and Uncle Abahai's family had snatched back two Han women. They are very beautiful, and their delicate fingers are like shallots in summer. His body was as white as winter snow.
Uncle Abahai stripped them naked. In broad daylight, he pressed them down on the cart and did that. At that time, I guessed that I was ten years old, and I was attracted by the screams of women. A lot of men gathered around to watch, and Gu'er didn't quickly lie on the ground. She saw Yin Hong's blood flowing between her two smooth thighs.
I was pulled back by the ears of the grandmother who came here, and the screams of the two women continued for a whole afternoon. The next day, Gulbel saw their white bodies on the wheel. There was not a single piece of cloth on his body, and his eyes were wide open. Looking at the blue sky of the grassland, without blinking. Their bodies were hard, and the blood on their lower bodies had congealed black.
Grandma said that they are some young lady of the Han family, and such women can't work. It can only be used by men to vent. So when he died, he saved Daddy from going to Uncle Abahai's house all day long.
Gu'er didn't take a quick look at himself, and he was covered in chilblains. A small hand that cracks like a child's mouth. He milks the goats, thrifts hay and takes care of the livestock. It should be considered that they can work, and the men of the Han people will not treat themselves like that. Don't die like that, it's too miserable. The cries of the two Han women I remember for the rest of my life. That's not a human voice.
Suddenly, there was a commotion among the Han people who surrounded them. Then someone shouted loudly. A group of people came out surrounded by a tall, thin man. All the people bowed to this man. Could it be that he is the emperor of the Han family, he must have a lot of cattle and sheep. Daddy said that the Han people are very rich. The Han emperor's felt bag was as big as drinking Hancheng. There are many cattle and sheep that can fill the entire Hetao grassland.
Every year, the emperor of the Han people would give Da Dan Yu a lot of gifts, and he had seen the convoy of gifts. There are many things like stones on the banks of the Yellow River, isn't this the capital of the Han people? Why didn't you see the emperor's huge felt bag, and didn't see a few cattle and sheep?
All sorts of strange questions flashed in Gulbel's head. No one gave her an answer, and no one spoke to her. Even if she said it, she couldn't understand it, she really wanted to find the blue-eyed Han general who gave her buns to eat. But she didn't dare to move, because if she did, she would be whipped. It hurts too much, much more painful than the chef in Lingwu City.
Liu Qi is very happy today, very happy. The hero of Gaozu Gaishiwei Jiayunei still inevitably has the siege of Baideng. For decades, the Han Dynasty wanted to pay tribute to the Xiongnu, and also chose beautiful women to go to the Xiongnu and kiss. In front of the door of Weiyang Palace today, there is also a Beijing view of the head of the Huns, kneeling full of young Hun women.
"Someone. He added the title of Lintong Hou Yunxiao as the general of the town army, and rewarded 2,000 households with 200 hectares of fertile land. He was crowned as the general of Jimo and became the general of Anton, and he rewarded 1,000 households with 100 hectares of fertile land. ”
Goshawk stood up instead of Yun Xiao and knelt down to thank Liu Qi for his reward. His own marquis turned into a general of the town army with 4,000 stones, and there were 200 hectares of fertile land. It seems that Hou Ye doesn't have to worry about the problem of land reclamation, and the newly allocated food can completely accommodate the retired Xiangyong. The most important thing is that the general of the town army can have two thousand personal guards.
It seems that the Kaichun Yun family will have two more brand-new recruit eggs.
The excited Liu Qi ignored the cold and led the courtiers to the temple. Liu Biao used the shortest time to drive out an affectionate sycophant article, which won Liu Qi's praise.
In addition to thanking him, Liu Biao is also proud and proud to have such a son.
After a busy day, Liu Qi returned to the Chengming Palace, and the warm room made his face slowly ruddy.
Qiandu stood under the Dan and bowed to Liu Qi.
"Your Majesty, the attendant of the Marquis of Lintong brought it. Please, what to do with those Hun women. There are also people sent by the Queen Mother to say that the head of the Huns is placed in front of the palace gate, which is unsightly, whether to change the place. ”
"Well, those Hun women will do some rough work in each palace, and don't choose this year's show girls. As for the heads of the Huns...... He moved to the edge of Gaozu's mausoleum and sent someone to take good care of it. Taizu's only regret in his life was the defeat of the Huns, and this time the shame before the snow also made his old man happy in the spirit of the sky. ”
"No"
Qiandu bowed down and retreated, busy distributing those Hun women to the various palaces.
"Spread the Lintong Marquis guards to meet you."
A short time later, a goshawk dressed in black armor walked in. Outside the palace gate, he handed over the saber to the guards on duty, and was about to take off his combat boots when he heard Liu Qi's voice inside.
"The guards of the Marquis of Lintong, wearing a sword to the palace."
The guards guarding the door were stunned, and there were very few people who could be given a sword by His Majesty to carry a sword to the temple over the years. It seems that the last person is the current Prime Minister Zhou, and it seems that this guy in front of him has a bright future. The guards hurriedly bowed down and took the goshawk's saber off the sword rack, and respectfully handed it back to the goshawk.
"The goshawk has seen His Majesty, long live my emperor."
The goshawk put the saber on his shoulder, and the nails and leaves rattled. strode into the Chengming Palace, not daring to look up at Liu Qi who was sitting on it.
"I've seen you, and the person with the best archery skills in the Yun family is you. Tell me about the situation on the front line, so that I can also know what kind of environment the soldiers are fighting in. ”
As the emperor of the Han Dynasty, Liu Qi was also once a hot-blooded angry youth. yearns for a horse galloping on the battlefield, but this qiē has been cut off after becoming the prince. So he wanted to know from the mouth of the goshawk what the real Han-Hungarian battlefield was like.
The goshawk didn't speak, just pulled the saber out. The samurai in front of the hall were shocked, and the sound of footsteps continued. More than a dozen samurai with halberds surrounded the goshawks.
The goshawk knelt down on one knee and raised his saber above his head with both hands.
"Your Majesty, just look at this knife."
"Stand down." As soon as Liu Qi waved his hand, the warriors retreated with their halberds. An attendant walked over, took the goshawk's saber and held it in front of Liu Qi with both hands.
Liu Qi looked at the saber in front of him, the blade of the stainless steel was full of gaps. It doesn't look so much like a knife and more like a saw.
"Your Majesty, this knife is made of stainless steel by Yun Hou's skilled craftsmen. Splitting more than a thousand copper coins without damaging the blade, you can see how tragic Lingwu City is when you look at this knife.
The 8,000 Longyou Hui soldiers you allocated to Hou Ye will still have more than 1,800 people left when the last general leaves. Yunhou's personal guards were also lost by more than half, and His Majesty's Yulin warriors lost more than 2,000 people in two hours.
The 10,000 heads that the last general brought back actually killed more than three or four times as many Huns. Not once after the Huns attacked the city, the corpses on the city walls were all one by one. The blood sticks to the sound of a man's boots walking up.
But these are not the hardest, the hardest is the lack of charcoal. The trees within ten miles of Lingwu City have been cut down, and without firewood, the soldiers can only eat raw rice. Some of the soldiers who had their teeth knocked out starved to death as a result.
The temperature of the soldiers who broke their arms and legs was very low, and they had no choice but to huddle with the sheep to keep warm. The weather outside the fortress was dripping with ice, and many wounded soldiers were frozen to death. The fingers and toes were blackened by the cold, and they were about to be cut off. Otherwise, they would festered and died, and almost every brother had a small cloth bag with his fingers and toes inside.
He did not see a doll of sixteen or seventeen years old, half of his feet were frozen black. Hou Ye said that he would never be able to walk again......"
Goshawk choked up when he said this, and the people in the Chengming Hall were even more in tears. Nangong, who was hiding behind the gauze curtain, was even more tearful, deeply worried about his lover. Caiyun and Chasing Moon pulled Nangong's arm tightly, for fear that she would rush out the next moment.
"Slap" Liu Qi's slap slapped the imperial book case, and the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone on it crackled.
"What a Tian Wei, he dares to treat the soldiers on the front line so harshly. Someone came, and Tian Wei was sent to prison for a quick trial. ”
"Your Majesty, this matter doesn't matter about Tian Sicao's affairs. Yesterday, the last general had already gone to Tian Sicao, and he issued a warrant for the prime minister to the last general. It is said that there is a shortage of firewood and carbon, and it is necessary to give priority to supplying the garrison on the Eastern Front. Your Majesty, please save those poor soldiers. They're all young...... 陛xià"
