Chapter 262 Reappearance of the Huns
With the efforts of Meng Tian and Wang Li, the garrison of Yang Zhou City was conquered very smoothly.Zeng Ke also visited Sha Pojun under the leadership of Meng Tian and Wang Li.Although Zeng Ke was dissatisfied with Meng Tian's defection to others, he was also an open-minded person, thinking that since he had already decided to defect to Meng Tian, ​​it didn't matter which faction Meng Tian belonged to.

Having figured this out, Zeng Ke naturally has no objection to joining the Sha Po Army.After seeing Sha Pojun, Zeng Ke bowed his head and said: "The Great Wall Army Zeng Ke pays homage to the Lord."

Sha Pojun carefully looked at Zeng Ke, who kowtowed, and saw that he was wearing bright silver armor with a tiger head belt tied around his waist. bravery.Sha Pojun secretly sighed, he is really a tiger general. Seeing the opponent kowtow, Sha Pojun hurriedly stepped forward to help Zeng Ke, and said with a smile: "General Zeng can join our army, it is really a blessing for our army."

"Your lord, you are absurd. My lord is righteous. Rescuing me is tantamount to danger. How can we be those ungrateful people?" Zeng Ke replied neither humble nor overbearing.

Sha Pojun knew that Zeng Ke was talking about repelling the Xiongnu and breaking the siege of Yangzhou City.So he smiled and replied: "The Xiongnu and other foreign races have repeatedly violated our borders and killed our people. We just did what a bloody man should do."

Hearing Sha Pojun's words, Zeng Ke was a little moved. He hadn't heard such inspiring words for many years. Ever since Generals Meng Tian and General Wang Li left one after another, the Great Wall Army had become useless, and had long since lost its former vigor.Now that Sha Pojun once again mentioned his attitude towards the Xiongnu, Zeng Ke felt as if he had returned to the days when he was chasing after thousands of miles.Zeng Ke shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty is truly a man of the same path. To deal with thugs like the Huns, we should take the initiative to attack and kill them without leaving any behind."

Seeing Zeng Ke's agitation, Meng Tian comforted him: "We have wiped out all the Huns who besieged the city this time, and I think the Huns have been seriously injured this time."

Zeng Ke asked in disbelief: "That's an army of 10,000+! Are they all dead?"

Sha Pojun nodded with a smile, and explained: "We had a field battle with them in the Devil's Valley, then forced them into the valley, and finally sealed them in the valley."

"How could the Huns be trapped to death in the valley willingly? Isn't there an exit from the Devil's Valley?" Hearing Sha Pojun's explanation, Zeng Ke was even more puzzled.

Sha Pojun signaled Meng Tian to tell Zeng Ke the ins and outs of this matter in detail, Meng Tian was naturally very happy, and he was still very satisfied with the results of this battle.

After listening to Meng Tian's narration, Zeng Ke admired Sha Pojun even more.He expressed his loyalty to the Sha Po Army, saying that it was the wisest decision in his life to join the Liang Shan Army.

Sha Pojun is also very happy, but it is a pity that some disappointing things always happen when people are at their best.Someone came to report from the front of the horse, and found traces of a large number of Hun cavalry not far away.

Sha Pojun's smile froze for an instant, and his face was slapped a little too fast.After detailed inquiry, I learned that there were about [-] Xiongnu cavalry in a place hundreds of miles away from Liyang. According to the direction they were going, they probably rushed to Zhao and returned to the Xiongnu from Zhao.

"Is this a fish that slipped through the net?" Sha Pojun asked uncertainly.

Meng Tian replied without hesitation: "It's probably because we didn't have the strength to encircle and suppress the Xiongnu, and we just fought the battle of Taniguchi with the opponent. Perhaps at that time, some Huns saw that the situation was not good and withdrew from the army of Modu. "

"These Huns ran really fast. If they had entered the valley together at that time, we could have wiped them all out." Sha Pojun said regretfully.

"My lord, looking at the wars between the countries of the Central Plains and the Huns for more than a hundred years, it can be said that it was the first time that so many Huns were defeated in the first battle. We have already become famous in history. I understand the nature of the Huns. They After these people returned to the grassland, they must first annex the tribes that suffered heavy losses this time. After the situation in the grassland is stabilized, they will think of looting the Central Plains. Of course, this battle also made the Huns feel the same. I have a lingering fear that they will never dare to invade the Central Plains from here again." Meng Tian expressed his opinion with a smile on his face.

Wang Li then added: "Not only do they not dare, I am afraid that within a few years, they will not have the intention to invade the Central Plains."

As soon as Wang Li said this, everyone laughed, and Sha Pojun relaxed his mind, and asked easily: "Then what do you think, how should we deal with this remnant of the Huns?"

"Naturally, we will chase after them and leave no one behind." Meng Tian said viciously, from the murderous look emanating from his words, it could be seen that Meng Tian hated the Xiongnu to the bone.

Li Zuoche, a military adviser with the army, has been reticent since the Zhou Wen incident, but he rarely expressed his opinion on this matter. He believes that since the Xiongnu are no longer in the mood, they should let this matter go and conquer Zhao. The Great Wall Army, destroying Qin is what the Liangshan Army should do at this time.

Sha Pojun looked at Kuai Che and thought to himself, didn't Kuai Che get angry with Li Zuoche?Didn't he decide to borrow a knife to kill people and suspend the subjugation of the Great Wall Army?

When the generals heard what Li Zuoche said, it made sense. Their main goal now should be on Qin, and they shouldn't waste their strength on other things.Of course, there are those who oppose it, and that is Kuai Che.

"Brother Zuo Che, do you know how strong the rebel army in Zhaodi is now? Have you ever thought about who our enemy will be after the Qin army is wiped out?" Kuai Che asked Li Zuoche loudly with a grim expression.

Li Zuoche straightened his body, and replied tit for tat: "I know what Brother Kuai means, that is, I am afraid that after the Qin Dynasty is destroyed, our army's strength will not be as strong as that of the rebels in other places. What I want to say is that this is the result of a villain See. Gentlemen should unite as one, first to destroy Qin, and finally to fight for the world, everyone should rely on their own strength."

Kuai Che was a little annoyed. Li Zuoche actually said that he was a villain, and scolded angrily: "Gentleman, how ridiculous. Between countries, you actually talk about the way of a gentleman. Do you think other people will be gentlemen? A gentleman Competing with a group of villains, who do you think is the winner."

Sha Pojun saw that the two seemed to be a little angry, and tried to dissuade them: "You two, I will decide the specific strategy, so don't argue any more." Sha Pojun looked at Li Zuoche, and said in a deep voice: "Zuoche Brother thinks that we should subdue Zhao’s Great Wall Army in the next step, but I have a different opinion. I think that now we should accumulate more strength and go forward. There are two reasons. Our losses were not small. Although the Great Wall Army from Yangzhou City joined in, it could not make up for the previous losses. Second, the Great Wall Army of Zhao Di’s rebellion was different from that of Yangzhou City. The main general of this army was Yan Jiu, who has taken refuge with Zhao Gao, has a high reputation in the Great Wall Army, so rashly persuading him to surrender may not have any effect. Therefore, we need to wait a little longer on this matter."

Sha Pojun's well-organized words convinced the generals, even Li Zuoche couldn't say anything against him, and silently nodded in approval.Sha Pojun found that the generals had no objections, and ordered the army to prepare to march towards Zhao, recruiting new troops along the way to expand their strength.
