Volume 1 Chapter 105 The Great Zhou Emperor's Shock
“Stop! Stop!”
"Everyone calm down!"
Tian Suanzi saw the Third Khan, the Fourth Khan, and the Fifth Khan joined forces to besiege the Second Khan.
I still want to make a final effort.
But he cursed in his heart: You guys came together to fight against the Zhou Dynasty, how can you fight among yourselves here?
But no matter how he tried to dissuade them, the Xiongnu Khans pretended not to hear him.
Are you kidding? Your wife was kidnapped and you can remain calm?
If Tian Suanzi was not a cultivator, they would not be able to defeat him and would all want to kill him.
Tian Suanzi originally wanted to lead his 10,000 elite soldiers to split the battlefield, but when he looked back, he found that these 10,000 elite soldiers had already gone their separate ways.
Because these 10,000 elite soldiers were a new army composed of soldiers sent by the four Khans, and now that the four Khans were fighting each other, they would of course return to their own camps.
"idiot!"
"You knew it was a conspiracy, but you still fell for it!"
Tian Suanzi was so angry that he stamped his feet, but he had no other choice. With his strength as a cultivator, he could easily take the general's head in the midst of thousands of troops, but he didn't dare to do it.
Killing or capturing these Khans would bring him a catastrophic disaster, and even his entire sect would be uprooted, and even his parents, wife and children would be killed.
Therefore, Tian Suanzi could only sigh, turned his head to look at Yang Wudi, and exclaimed in his heart: It turns out that the old ones are still the wisest!
At this moment, Yang Wudi was laughing loudly. This strategy was not proposed by him, but by Bai Qi.
Originally he thought that he had reached the end of his rope, that he would definitely not be able to escape this time, Yang Wudi was ready to live and die with Honghua City.
But I never expected that there would be a 180-degree turn now.
The Huns did not attack Honghua City, but instead started fighting among themselves.
"Kill, kill, kill! Kill one less!"
"Second Khan, you are so sinister. You actually want to unify the grassland!"
"Fifth Khan, avenge your woman!"
"Third Khan, don't hold back, kill him!"
"Kill the Second Khan, and you can take his grasslands and his women. If he can have sex on the first day of the month, you can have sex on the fifteenth day!"
At this moment, the soldiers of the Great Zhou even cheered for the Huns, allowing them to fight more fiercely.
"It's so cool, we can actually watch the Huns kill each other!"
Thousands of generals felt that this was incredible.
At this moment, the Second Khan was going crazy. The 100,000 troops he led were being besieged by an army of 300,000. If the fighting continued, his entire army would be wiped out here.
The Second Khan also cursed the Third Khan, the Fourth Khan and the Fifth Khan as big fools.
But he also knew in his heart that these three Khans probably wanted to kill him here and then take over his treasures, lands and women.
What war are we fighting now?
Running is the serious thing!
"Retreat!" The Second Khan directly ordered the entire army to retreat.
With the sound of dull horns, the Second Khan's 100,000-strong army no longer fought with the armies of other Khans, but turned around and ran away following the Second Khan.
They ran in front, and the Third Khan behind them immediately led his troops to chase and kill them, shooting arrows madly as they went.
The Second Khan's army fell down one after another like leeks being cut.
In just one hour, the Second Khan's army lost more than 20,000 men, leaving only 70,000.
But even so, he was still being chased by others, and his number of people kept decreasing.
The Second Khan could only grit his teeth and order his soldiers to flee in different directions.
So he led his personal guards and 20,000 elite soldiers under his command and ran in one direction, while the remaining Hun generals each led 10,000 elite soldiers and retreated in other directions.
As he divided his troops in this way, the Third Khan, the Fourth Khan and the Fifth Khan also had to divide their troops to pursue.
But the second Khan had the most people.
The Second Khan cursed in his heart, these people must be trying to kill him!
But he had no choice now and could only run away desperately.
In the blink of an eye, 400,000 of the 500,000 troops besieging Honghua City fled away.
Even Tian Suanzi was dumbfounded.
His painstaking plan was foiled by one move.
Looking back, he saw the two sons of the First Khan. He gritted his teeth and said, "Two Khans, why don't we take this opportunity to capture Honghua City!"
The two sons of the First Khan looked at each other and cursed Tian Suanzi directly: "Idiot!"
After saying this, the two of them also chased towards the depths of the grassland, and in an instant the 500,000-strong army was wiped out.
how so?
Tian Suanzi didn't understand why the two sons of the First Khan wanted to retreat.
But Yang Wudi knew that if the two sons of the First Khan did not return, the Third Khan, the Fourth Khan and the Fifth Khan would kill the Second Khan.
Then the three families could instantly divide up the second Khan's land, treasures and women, and their strength would increase dramatically.
The two sons of the first Khan got nothing and could only watch the power of the three Khans grow.
Then they will never be able to inherit his father’s throne as Khan and become the first Khan on the grassland in their lifetime.
"This is Bai Qi's conspiracy!"
"You knew that retreating would give Honghua City a chance of survival, but you had to retreat!"
Yang Wudi laughed loudly, his eyes full of relief.
After the Khans' 500,000-man army was out of their sight, Yang Wudi ordered, "Open the city gates and collect the bodies of these Huns!"
The city gate was opened instantly.
Ten thousand generals led their men and rushed madly out of the city.
It’s not that they really want to collect the remains of the Huns. They hate the Huns to their core, so how could they possibly do that?
What they really wanted to do was to plunder the dry food from the Huns.
The Huns brought a lot of beef jerky and mutton jerky to fill their stomachs during the battle, and also a lot of strong liquor.
This is the food they need most right now.
Moreover, the Huns also lost many horses in this war, at least several hundred.
If we pull these horses back and kill them, it will also help Honghua City catch its breath. At least everyone can get a bite to eat, and people won't starve to death within a day or two.
Tian Suanzi could only stand in the distance and watch all this, watching Honghua City escape death once again.
The soldiers who got the dry food from the Huns cried for joy.
"Long live the Marshal, long live Bai Qi!"
“We won, we won!”
The soldiers shouted wildly, expressing their joy, and some even hugged each other and cried bitterly.
They truly had a close call with hell.
Before even waiting for nightfall, the soldiers started a bonfire party in the city and invited all the people to join.
Everyone ate meat and drank wine together, and then Yang Wudi immediately sent people to the rear to gather supplies.
As long as the Huns did not cut off their logistical supply lines, the crisis in Honghua City would be resolved soon.
Gather some food within a day or two to maintain their survival, and then slowly gather more food and grass. Honghua City will still be the unbreakable Honghua City of the past!
In addition, Yang Wudi ordered his men to ride as fast as possible to report the news to the capital.
Tian Suanzi stood on the top of the tree, staring at everything blankly. There was only one name in his mind now, Bai Qi!
It turned out that none of this was planned by Yang Wudi.
It was actually Bai Qi who did it!
He really wants to meet Bai Qi now, and even wants to kill Bai Qi!
If it weren't for Bai Qi, he would have definitely led the Hun army to destroy the Zhou Dynasty this time.
"Bai Qi, I cannot stand with you!"
………………
5 days later.
Capital city, imperial palace.
The Emperor of the Great Zhou had already packed up his things, even prepared the ships for going out to sea, and loaded all the materials that needed to be shipped on board.
He had even begun planning to take those beauties away from the palace so that he could live a carefree life.
Just when the Emperor of Zhou was preparing to flee.
A sharp eunuch's voice sounded.
"Report!——"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou was so angry that he wanted to kill someone. He found a lot of beauties today and decided to live the most luxurious life, because he would not be able to live this kind of life in the future.
But just when he was chatting with the beauties, the damn eunuch came again.
He didn't even get out of bed, he just shouted outside: "Get in!"
If it were in the past, the Emperor of the Great Zhou would have really taken it into consideration and would not have let the eunuch in like this. At least he would have been dressed neatly.
Let the beauties behind you step aside.
We can’t let this damn eunuch take advantage of us.
But he didn't care about so many things now. Although his beauty was seen by the eunuch, he felt a little uncomfortable.
But if the Great Zhou Kingdom is destroyed and the family is ruined, no one will know who these beauties belong to.
He's just an eunuch, so just let him see it. It won't cost you a single piece of meat anyway.
The chief eunuch didn't care about that. He rushed in and knelt on the ground, saying with a look of joy: "Your Majesty, this is great news!"
"What good news?"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou did not even raise his head, but concentrated on eating the fruit.
"Is the ship ready?"
"Have we found a place to stay?"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou felt depressed. Fleeing overseas was a technical job. As the king of a fallen country, he had to find an island where he could survive.
Otherwise, if I run up there, what if I die there?
Or maybe the island doesn't have enough supplies, and going there would mean being trapped there for life, and there might not even be anything to eat.
Does he have to eat fish and shrimp all his life?
The Emperor of the Great Zhou thought that the good thing the eunuch was talking about was this kind of thing, wasn't it just finding an island where he could stay? Is it necessary to be so excited?
However, the eunuch's next words completely stunned him.
"Your Majesty, the Huns have withdrawn!"
What! ?
The Emperor of the Great Zhou was shocked, and even felt that he was beginning to hear hallucinations. He got out of bed, grabbed the eunuch by the collar, and roared:
"Say it again to me!"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty's hands were shaking, he was really afraid that everything he heard was false.
The chief eunuch said happily: "Your Majesty, the Xiongnu have really withdrawn their troops, and Honghua City has been saved!"
"Yang Wudi has sent someone to inform us of the battle report from the front line, asking us to quickly deliver food and supplies to Honghua City. They have been starving for many days."
"The civilians and soldiers could only drink a mouthful of thin rice soup with almost no rice in it every day."
Damn it!
The Emperor of the Great Zhou felt as if he was listening to a foreign language.
He was spinning around the room excitedly, almost exploding with excitement.
"Honghua City was saved?"
"Then I won't have to flee overseas!"
"Oh my god, how did you do that?"
After the excitement, the Emperor of the Great Zhou captured the eunuch again and asked about the specific battle situation in Honghua City.
The chief eunuch, of course, had to explain this clearly, and then he reported to the Emperor of Zhou:
"Your Majesty, this is all thanks to Bai Qi!
"After Bai Qi arrived at Honghua City, he immediately left the city with 10,000 elite soldiers, while Yang Wudi left 190,000 soldiers to guard Honghua City."
"Just when Yang Wudi ran out of food and grass, the Xiongnu army launched a general attack and broke into the city."
"But who knew that Bai Qi actually plundered the grassland dragon courts of the third, fourth and fifth Khans of the Xiongnu in the rear."
"And all the women and treasures of these khans were given to the Second Khan."
"And it was done under the guise of the Second Khan."
"The nobles of the Third Khan, the Fourth Khan, and the Fifth Khan ran from their grassland dragon courts to the front battlefield and told their own Khan about this incident."
"The Third Khan, the Fourth Khan, and the Fifth Khan are teaming up to destroy the Second Khan!"
"And the first Khan's two sons were afraid that the other three Khans would become more powerful after destroying the second Khan, so they also went to get a piece of the pie."
"So they all gave up attacking Honghua City and instead resolved their internal conflicts."
After the eunuch told the whole story in detail,
The Emperor of the Great Zhou was stunned.
Can war still be fought like this?
This Bai Qi is too scary!
Even if he really stayed in Honghua City to help Yang Wudi defend the city, he would still be dead once the logistics supply line was cut off!
However, no one expected that Bai Qi would take another approach and resort to the strategy of sowing discord.
“Okay, okay!”
“Well done!”
"Come here, pass on my order immediately. Yang Wudi has made great contributions in protecting the country. Promote his son Yang Tianbao to the title of Duke of Protector of the Country!"
The Emperor of the Great Zhou directly ordered that Yang Tianbao's title be promoted to Duke.
This time, the Yang family has made a great contribution.
But he could not confer any more titles on Yang Wudi. Yang Wudi's title was too high. It had reached the point where there was no more title to be conferred. If he conferred any more titles on Yang Wudi, he would have to make him king.
So he simply conferred the title on Yang Wudi's son.
After rewarding Yang Wudi, the Great Zhou Emperor gave another order: "Order all places to collect food and fodder and quickly transport them to Honghua City. Not a single grain of food can be left for me!"
Yes sir!
The chief eunuch immediately took the order and went to do the job. He knew that this matter was of utmost importance and it concerned the life and death of the Great Zhou.
At this moment, he walked lightly and felt extremely brisk.
Finally, I don’t have to flee with the Emperor of Zhou. That’s great!
The Emperor of the Great Zhou was in a very good mood at the moment. He no longer played around with his concubines. Instead, he quickly put on his clothes and went to see the three priests.
After arriving at the offering hall.
The Emperor of the Great Zhou immediately told the three priests the battle report from the front line.
The third priest heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then his face turned cold: "What a great Tianji Sect! Pass my order and mobilize the priests of the Great Zhou to destroy the Tianji Sect!"
The fourteenth priest, Eunuch Huang, immediately received the order and went to select the masters of the palace to directly exterminate the entire Tianji Sect.
After the fourteen priests left, the third priest looked at the Emperor of the Great Zhou and asked:
"How does the emperor plan to reward Bai Qi?"
What the hell?
The Great Zhou Emperor was stunned at the time, and then he said with an unpleasant expression: "Why should we reward Bai Qi?"
In front of the three priests, he did not put on airs like an emperor at all. He gritted his teeth and said, "Hasn't Sun Wukong heard that when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked?"
"Bai Qi is useless now, why reward him?"
"Why not just wait for him to come back and kill him!"
Whenever the Emperor of the Great Zhou thought of Bai Qi, he wished he could grind Bai Qi to dust.
But as soon as the Emperor of Great Zhou finished speaking, the three priests raised their hands and slapped the Emperor of Great Zhou hard in the face.
With a snap,
After the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty spun in the air three and a half times, he crashed directly into the wall, and his face instantly swelled up like a pig's head.
His body was like a painting, hanging on the wall, and then slowly slid to the ground. After reaching the ground, the Emperor of the Great Zhou spat out a mouthful of blood.
Then he looked at the Third Priest in horror and asked, "Why did you hit me?"
