Spring and Autumn I Am King

Six hundred years ago, after pacifying the rebellion of Yinyi, King Cheng of Zhou became a vassal of the allies around the Qiyang Conference after he divided Zhu Ji. On that day, the Marquis of Jin, Tang Shuyu, Xunshu, and Zhou Gongdan were on the left, and Taigongwang was on the right. Together with the Son of Heaven, they witnessed all kinds of grand occasions of the arrival of all ethnic groups from Dongyi, southern barbarians, northern Dixirong to the dynasty.

The historian of the Zhou Dynasty also recorded the tributes presented by these tribes with interest. When describing the tribes north of Yanhao, he wrote: "Tu He Qingxiong, Donghu Huangzhu, Shanrong Rongshu... "

Tu He and Donghu have been well-known tribes in the north since the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, but today, Tu He has declined and become a vassal of Daiguo, but Donghu is still roaming freely on the prairie and prospering more and more.

"These Donghu people are the most powerful tribe north of the Dai Kingdom. They are widely distributed, with as many as 30 or 40 tribes, and the number varies. They can often gather hundreds of stringers. They like to loot other tribes. We often suffer from it, and we are unlucky this time, and we may encounter the Donghu tribe who are migrating or hunting.”

Yi Dun is a businessman. After speaking, he subconsciously chose to avoid the battle: "Go quickly, speed up to Tu He, they have a small town, and the ruler of Tu He likes Chinese things and will protect us!"

But Yu Xi considered the situation at hand from a military point of view: "It's too late to go. Those Donghu people are about half a mile away, and they will arrive in an instant. If you turn your back to them, you will die even worse."

Yi Dun gritted his teeth: "Then what should I do? Or just give up the goods in the convoy and the cattle and sheep furs that were exchanged, and lure the barbarians into looting, and we will take the opportunity to get out of trouble?"

Yu Xi glanced at Yi Dun with contempt: "Wishful thinking, do you know that these fifty people in your caravan are all veterans of the Zhao family's iron cavalry. They have been in the army for several years and have fought more than ten times in small battles. All have meritorious deeds, and all are above the rank of corps leader.”

"If you see a few enemies and run away, how will we control the crowd after we go back? How can we direct our subordinates to fight against these Rong and Di?"

After speaking, Yu Xi resolutely ordered: "Get off the horse, adjust the bow, prepare the saddle, and put on the stirrup! Listen to my orders!"

Zhao Wuxi had a strict order, and unless they had to, they were not allowed to expose their stirrups and saddles in the land of the Rong and Di. Yu Xi kept this in mind, but in today's situation, if they abandoned their luggage and left, they would still be caught up, and if they were captured, they would still be caught. What the lord explained will be revealed.

It's better to take a risk than catch it!

Seeing that the five or six Donghu scouts, relying on the fact that there were two or three hundred troops behind them, got closer and closer, and even within a single arrow, Yu Xi found an opportunity, and after preparing the saddle and stirrup, he jumped up, his legs As soon as you clip the horse, run straight towards them!

Those Donghu scouts probably did not expect that the strangely dressed convoy on the opposite side would suddenly resist, and some people rushed towards them as if they were dying.

However, what he didn't expect was that because of the harness, Yu Xi drew his bow and aimed faster than the little hunters who were riding on horseback. He bent his bow like a half-moon, and a cunning arrow shot over with a swish, and shot a Donghu scout who was about to pull the string off his horse!

The remaining four turned pale in shock, and hurriedly speeded up their bows. However, because there were no stirrups and saddles, they panicked, and Yu Xi shot another arrow first, hitting one in the eye socket!

Two people were damaged in an instant, and the remaining three people were already facing a formidable enemy. All three arrows aimed at Yu Xi and shot at him!

Yu Xi didn't panic, he crouched down on the horse's back to avoid an arrow, and let the remaining two arrows hit the mount, then stepped up to draw the bow again, and shot down one person again!

"Okay!" Yi Dun couldn't help but applaud, the power of Zhao's cavalry, he has seen from Yu Xi today, he is indeed the master Yu who has been with Zhao Shangqing for ten years and has made extraordinary achievements!

At this time, the equestrians behind Yu Xi had also attacked their horses, and the flying arrows shot the two Donghu people who were about to retreat. These five people paid the price for their arrogance...

After the front scouts were all damaged, the raging Donghu tribesmen seemed to hit an air wall and immediately stopped their horses' hooves, watching from a distance several hundred paces away, hesitating.

Yu Xi did not retreat immediately, but ran forward for a while, raised his head to examine the Donghu tribe, and then returned on horseback.

However, after his horse stepped into the convoy, his legs fell to the ground: it had just been hit by two arrows, one of which was also hit in the chest.

Yu Xi didn't hesitate at all. Seeing that her beloved horse could no longer leave quickly, she quickly asked someone to help him unload the saddle, unfasten the stirrups and put them away, then unsheathed his sword and stabbed it into the horse's neck. The horseshoe with the horseshoe was chopped off, put in the cart and taken away.

From the beginning to the end, Donghu Buzhong did not take another step towards the convoy, but retreated in an orderly manner, not even caring about the five dead bodies.

Finally, there was no danger, Yu Xi looked at the horse's buttocks as they went away, and said, "The Donghu people are very timid."

Yi Dun said: "It's not that I'm timid, it's that I attack when the situation is favorable, and retreat when the situation is unfavorable. I don't take it as a shame to escape. As long as there is an advantage, it doesn't matter whether propriety and righteousness allow it or not. This is the nature of Donghu and all Hu people. ."

In the eyes of the Donghu people, Yu Xi alone could easily kill the three of them. There were nearly a hundred people on the opposite side, and at least half of them were welcomed on horseback. Retreat is a normal choice. This is like going out hunting, encountering tigers and giant bears, when the number of people is not enough, you have to leave cautiously and go hunting for foxes, rabbits, deer and deer instead.

Yu Xi asked people to cut off the heads of five Donghu scouts and hang them on the front of the car to deter the tribes who dared to come to the convoy again.

But what they didn't expect was that these heads of people with braided hair and teeth played an unexpected role when they entered the city of Tu Heren...

...

Tu He is a nation that believes in Qingxiong. They are not "Hu", but "Rong" who are the same as Dairen and Wuji. The nomadic nature is not as high as that of Donghu and Xiongnu. They have settled farming and cities. The biggest is Tu Heyi.

"Just because of the heads of these five Donghu people, I would like to respect you as a warrior!"

In a blunt and out-of-tune Central Plains dialect, a warrior Tu He, wearing a bun, wearing a sheepskin left bun, and wearing gold and silver ornaments, was pointing fingers at Yu Xi, but he did not know much vocabulary. He resumed his screeching Rong language.

Yu Xi looked at Yi Dun inexplicably, hoping that he could translate.

"He said that there are more than a thousand people in this Donghu tribe with the Huangzhu flag. They migrated from the Yanshan side. They did not obey the rules, occupied grasslands, and plundered the tribe. The leader of Tu He. They thought it deeply, and they hated it very much. He personally led people to find these Hu people, beheaded more than ten people, but let the rest escape. Now you kill Donghu people, you are Tu Heren's friends. "

At the end, Yi Dun added: "This is Tu He Junchang's brother-in-law, Xinzhigou..."

"dog?"

"Today, the husband and the army have dogs. There are more than ten or so, and the widow is five or six, but they will not harm each other." Even Yan Ying knew that Dai Guo kept a large number of dogs, and Tu He, as a vassal of Dai Wang, was also contaminated. Because of the custom of being a good dog, the little chief in front of him was named a dog.

If it is later generations, this name can make people laugh and laugh, but in this era, there are not a few people named Yu and He in the Central Plains, Jinlu and other countries, so Yu Xi is not surprised. He looked up and down the new puppies. The little chief of Rongdi had a good temperament, with strong arms and thick waists, and his hands were full of calluses. It looked like he had been practicing all year round.

Through Yi Dun's translation and gestures, Yu Xi was finally able to have a few words with Xinzhigou. This little chief Tu He had been to Yanguobian City not far to the east, so he could say a few things. Xia language, even know a little word! In the Tu He tribe, he is already a person with profound knowledge.

And he is also known as the first warrior of Tu He!

Probably a hero cherishing a hero, this young dog admired Yu Xi who shot and killed Sanhu Qi by himself. In the next few days, he eagerly arranged accommodation and meals for them in the city. Yu Xi and the others finally had a good parting. The long-awaited fresh corn was instantly excited.

While Yidun was running around the city, meeting Tu He Junchang, looking for buyers for the goods he was carrying, and establishing a spy network requested by Zhao Wuxi, Yu Xi was invited by Xinzhigou to go hunting, and by the way, let’s take a look at his ability.

Even if Yu Xi does not use the saddle and stirrup, he is still very skilled in riding and archery, and the momentum of the battle is even more unforgettable. He opened a two-stone bow and aimed at the prey running out of the jungle. The largest wild boar slid away with an arrow, and the wild boar fell a hundred paces away.

Tu He's warriors cheered for him immediately. This tribe is as hospitable and hospitable as Lou Anren. Yu Xi has accompanied Zhao Wuxi on hunting many times in the past. He is one of the most skilled archers in the Zhao army. . He bowed his bow calmly and shot, almost every arrow would take the life of a prey.

"I didn't expect that there are warriors like you in China! Hi, you are so talented, why bother to follow that merchant, why don't you stay in Tu He, and go with me to kill the Donghu people, I will definitely ask the emperor to give you a piece of grass or farmland , if you do meritorious deeds, maybe you will be able to take the daughter of the emperor! Just stay!"

Facing the sudden retention at the Xinzhigou banquet~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Yu Xi, one of Zhao Shangqing's four generals, can't help laughing. He is already a big landowner. He farmed hundreds of scoundrel servants. In Jin State, he even owned a food town. Shangqing also plotted a grassland for him near Luliang Mountain. There are about two Tu Heyi as big as two people. There are also several wives and concubines in the family. They are all daughters of doctors and sergeants. They are beautiful and gentle. , and gave birth to four boys and three girls for him. Even Zhao Shangqing bluntly said that he was very envious of this record...

In a word, in Jin State, Yu Xi, rich, honorable, and splendid are all in short supply. Now the little chief in front of him uses a small piece of grassland and felt tent, and the Rong girl full of the smell of cattle and horses wants to bribe and keep him, just kidding!

However, his current identity is indeed a light chivalrous warrior who escorts Yidun, and he cannot be exposed, so he can only politely refuse: "I'm still willing to wear sangma and you, and die in the country of my parents."

Xinzhigou was a little disdainful: "For this reason, you are willing to condescend to be under the district merchants and border officials?"

Yu Xi rolled his eyes and retorted: "Tu Heren is also loyal and brave, doesn't he still have to condescend to be under the people of the generation and be exploited and driven by the emperor?"
