Zhubei (4)

As soon as the army of Youxian King, King Luhou and King Zhelan retreated, King Zuoxian ordered that five thousand troops be stationed in front of the camp, and the remaining 20,000 soldiers and horses began to pull out the camp, transporting the food, grass and supplies in the camp first and sending them to the Zuoxian King's own royal court.

At the cost of five thousand people, he can earn his own peace, sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, and covet the throne of the Great Shanyu. Zuo Xianwang still felt that he had made some money in this deal. When the Chu and the Hungarian War were in a desperate situation, he would merge the small tribes that had defected to the Right Xianwang, and his troops would be immediately replenished and his power could reach the territory of the Right Xianwang. If possible, he could make peace with His Majesty the Emperor of Chu and let him confirm his position of the Great Shanyu. By that time, even if the old Shang Shanyu was in power, he could only blow his beard and stare. What could he do?

However, in order to prevent the Chu army from pursuing, Zuo Xianwang also made a lot of effort, planted flags in the camp, used some grass to make it look like a human, and left an empty camp - of course, all the useful things in the camp were removed. After everything was arranged, Zuo Xianwang then satisfactorily stepped on his war horse and ordered the entire army to quietly drive back to his base.

The territory of Zuo Xianwang was in the east, with dozens of tribes of all sizes under his command, while the territory of You Xianwang was in the west, and the territory of the two happened to form a barrier to the territory of the Great Shanyu. The royal court of Zuo Xianwang had thousands of tents, and countless elderly, weak and weak women and children were engaged in production and construction in the royal court, feeding cattle and sheep, squeezing cattle and sheep milk, and raising successors of the tribe.

There were more than a hundred miles away from the royal court. Some of the people who were leading the way rushed over and shouted in panic: "Zuo Xian, Zuo Xian, something big is wrong, something big is wrong."

King Zuo Xian frowned and cursed: "Damn, what happened? Is this so fuss?"

The visitor was dismounted in a hurry and kowtowed, "The king's court was looted by the Chu army. No one who stayed behind the king's court was spared. They were all killed by the Chu army, and all the tents were burned out by a fire."

After hearing this, King Zuo Xian almost fell off the war horse. He never thought that his royal court would be found by the Chu army so hidden, and even gave him a slaughter. No wonder no one came to report such a big event, and all the people were killed by the Chu army! In this way, no one of his subordinates was left, so why would he talk about fighting for the throne of the Great Shanyu and how could he talk about a grand career?

But how did the damn Chu army find their own royal court? Which bastard led his troops to wash them all out?

He would never have thought that his royal court was looted by the Chu army by accident. On that day, Han Xin led a large army from the east and wanted to encircle the Da Shanyu royal court. Under the guidance of the Xiongnu, he actually touched the Zuo Xian King's royal court.

Although he passed by, Han Xin still ordered the royal court to be surrounded and then wiped out the Huns here. The elderly, weak, women and children were not left behind, and the Huns also let the Huns taste the taste of being massacred. As for some of the food stored in the royal court, Han Xin ordered them to take them away. All the things that were difficult to take away were burned to pieces.

The Chu army almost used the Huns' ways to control the Huns, burning, killing and looting them. There were also a few brave men who raped the slightly handsome Hun women in turn, but they did not receive the punishment from the commander Han Xin. Although this seemed not to be the actions of the king's army and violated the laws of the Great Chu army, when they thought of the Huns' actions when facing the people of Chu in the village, town and even the whole city, Han Xin turned a blind eye.

The Chu army, who received actual combat drills, also got rest and then burned the Xiongnu Zuoxian King Wang's Court with fire, continued to go northwest, crossed the desert thousands of miles, and walked through wind, sand and stones, and went through a lot of hardships to find the Shanyu King's Court.

The furious Zuo Xianwang immediately ordered that the front team of the army would become the back team, and the back team would become the front team, and to fight back again to Yunzhong City to take revenge. Zuo Xianwang's army worked hard to reach the royal court, but before he could breathe for a moment, he had to return again. The soldiers were very complaining, and they were hungry, and they all walked slowly.

King Zuo Xian had no choice but to let the army rest on the spot, but he couldn't eat it himself. The Chu people were like plundering all the strength and wealth he had accumulated over the years, almost giving him a fatal blow. If anyone else was, he would be furious and wanted to break through Chu City and robbery before he could stop.

During the resumption of the army, someone advised: "The Chu army in Yunzhongcheng has many soldiers and generals. Our army went rashly. With only 20,000 tired soldiers, it would be difficult to resist the Chu people. Once our army was destroyed by the Chu people, wouldn't the Right King enjoy his success?"

Zuo Xianwang had calmed down at this time. When he thought about it, he was not enough for his few troops to more than 100,000 Chu troops (he didn't know that Han Xin had already transferred all the elite Chu troops out) to his teeth. And he went to fight with the Chu people head-on. Isn't this what the old boy of the Youxianwang had always expected? So why should I compete with him for the position of the Great Shanyu with the Youxianwang in the future?

I remember an old saying from the Chu people, saying that if a little bit of tolerance is to make big plans, you can't help but behave, and you will ruin big things. King Zuo Xian thought about it and asked, "Where should our army go according to your opinion? You can't run to the Great Shanyu royal court to cry?"

The man looked hesitant and saw that there was no one around, so he said boldly: "In the eyes of the villain, the Great Shanyu is not a rival to the Chu people. After this battle, the Great Shanyu was weak. If you could make good friends with the Great Chu emperor and take the power of the Great Chu to take the position of the Great Shanyu, wouldn't it be easy to capture it and be as light as a palm?"

When Zuo Xianwang thought that his royal court had been taken over by the Chu people, he was really angry and wanted to ask for help from the Chu people. He shook his head and said angrily: "The Chu people have pulled out my royal court. This is a great hatred that is irreconcilable. If this hatred is not avenged, how can I convince the public?"

The man smiled and said, "You don't know that when the Chu people pulled down the royal court, I and the Chu people were still enemies. If I form an alliance with Chu and take the position of Da Shanyu, why worry about living without a royal court? Moreover, the royal court of Da Shanyu is much larger than yours."

Anyway, I have nothing, so it is better to lose and win, and maybe I can really get a great fortune. Zuo Xian Wang Sifu repeatedly thought the deal was feasible, so he said, "Then I will send you to discuss this matter with the Emperor of Chu. If the Emperor of Chu promises that I can ascend to the position of the Great Shanyu, I will do my best to help him eliminate the stubborn rebellion."

When the envoys of Zuo Xianwang arrived at their original camp, they were captured by the Chu army soldiers who had already entered the camp. It turned out that the Chu army had occupied the empty camp. Seeing that he was tied up, the envoy quickly shouted: "Relax, loosen the tie, loosen the tie, I will come to Jin to meet His Majesty the Emperor of Chu on the order of Zuo Xianwang, and have important matters to talk about."

Speaking of the Chu army occupying the Huns' camp, it was a coincidence. Ji Bu was bringing five thousand cavalry to challenge the battle. One was to lure the Huns into battle, but wanted to get angry with them. But after scolding for a long time, there was still no movement in the Huns' camp. Ji Bu simply ordered the soldiers to dismount and rest. He wanted to use his army's slackness to lure out the enemy, but he did not expect that a few brave soldiers actually touched the front of the Huns' camp. When Ji Bu saw him, he was afraid that his subordinates would be cold arrows from the Huns, so he asked them to come back soon.

The brave soldiers, seeing that the sentry on the Huns' camp gate tower had already entered their range, couldn't help but take out the bow. They hit the "man" with an arrow, but saw that the "man" didn't even shout pain and still stood there. These soldiers didn't believe that this kid could stand it, so they went down two or three arrows, and the "man" was still standing as before.

Some people who were not afraid of death continued to explore and found that they were not a Hun soldier, but a straw man, but they put on the clothes of the Huns. Just as the people sent by Ji Bu arrived, these brave soldiers told the people who came to the scene. The people who came were shocked and hurriedly informed Ji Bu. Ji Bu hurriedly ordered two thousand men to enter the camp, and then he realized that the entire Huns Central Army camp was empty. Soon, someone came from the west that all the Xiongnu Xi camps had been withdrawn.

Such good news reached Xiang Yu's ears, and Xiang Yu was overjoyed. He knew that Xiang Fei or Han Xin's army had arrived at the royal court of the Great Khan of the Huns. The old Grand Khan made the Xiongnu army retreat on the east route. However, after the experienced soldiers observed that the Xiongnu army retreated in two ways, one first heading to the northwest, and one just retreating to the northeast.

Xiang Yu summoned the generals in Yunzhong City to discuss the matters and discuss how the army should act afterwards.

Luan Bu was more cautious and suggested: "Your Majesty, now the Huns' army suddenly retreated in two directions, which is extremely suspicious. I think that if you are not guarding against the Huns' plans, you should send scouts to investigate the northwest and northeast sides. If the Huns have ambushed, you should stick to the clouds and not leave easily. Just wait for the good news of Xiang and Han marshals."

Xiang Yu pondered for a moment and asked, "If the Huns did not set up an ambush, but retreated, what would our army do?"

Ji Bu smiled and said, "If the Huns did not have ambush, but the entire army retreated, it would have been a time when the army of Grand Marshal Xiang Fei arrived at the royal court. Our army could directly head northwest and join forces with Grand Marshal Xiang Fei to attack the royal court of Grand Marshal Xiang Fei directly, wouldn't it be pleasant?"

Luan Bu hurriedly said: "You should not act rashly. Why should the Huns army go in two ways? If our army advances northwest and the Xiongs army in the northeast cut off our army's retreat, the success or failure of the army is small, and your Majesty is in great danger, so you must not act carelessly."

For a moment, two factions of opinions were formed in the hall, one was to advance quickly and the other was to wait and see. Xiang Yu was about to express his opinion, but he heard someone report outside: "Your Majesty, several Huns were arrested in the camp outside the city, and the leader called him an envoy sent by the Zuoxian King of the Huns. The envoy said he would meet Your Majesty and report important things."

"Oh," Xiang Yu said unexpectedly, "The Zuoxian King of the Xiongnu actually sent an envoy to see me? I want to see what happened to him. Let's go away for now. The two marshals will leave me to meet the envoy of the Zuoxian King of the Xiongnu." (To be continued.
