Chapter 463: Strong Wind Blows (5) Open the Window and Speak Plainly

On the shore of Dayan Lake, two huge new tombs stand tall, one is the tomb of the soldiers who died in the battle of the East Army, and the other is the tomb of the dead of the Yan Army. But I can still vividly see the rippling Dayan Lake, which was originally a clear water, but now within a dozen meters of the shore, it is all red, and in the distance, although the red fades, it is still clearly visible. watermark ad test watermark ad test

In this battle, nearly 10,000 people died on both sides. Although most of them belonged to the standing army of Yan State, more than 1,000 people from the Zhengdong Army died in this battle. Basically, they all fought with the enemy during the first wave of attacking the Yan Army's strike position. die together.

In front of the tomb of the martyrs, the bonfire was blazing, and nearly 5,000 marching soldiers stood awe-inspiring. Among them, many were scarred, and with the support of their companions, they also stood up as straight as possible. On their side, three thousand cavalry led their horses and formed several square formations.

This is a memorial ceremony for the soldiers who died in battle after each battle of the Eastern Army.

Following the hoarse cry of Sun Xiao, who presided over the ceremony, countless flags were lowered, and the soldiers took off their helmets and bowed their heads in salute. In the queue, there was a faint cry of restraint, among the dead , With their relatives, brothers, fathers, sons, blood is thicker than water, how can they not be sad?

The solemn battle song sounded again, but this time, everyone felt that the battle song was a bit awkward.

Those who offend me will be punished even if they are far away!

But this time, it was an infighting between the two armies originally belonging to the Yan Kingdom.

The sound of the fighting had died down, and the red sun was fading. Gao Yuan stood in front of the still red Dayan Lake, with his hands behind his back, looking into the distance. The soldiers were still cleaning the battlefield behind him. The seized weapons and armor are being loaded one by one, even broken knives and guns. They were also packed up one by one and shipped back.

He has completely turned his back on Yan Guo. There must be a very difficult period of time ahead, iron. It is the terrible material that restricts Gao Yuan's further development. These broken knives and guns can be transported back to the furnace for smelting, and then they can be turned into sharp knives and guns again.

Zhou Yu made a bold move. Jishi City must also be in the flames of war at this time,

"Luo Lei greets General Gao!" Luo Lei's rough voice sounded behind him.

Gao Yuan turned around, "Lorei, hey, Patriarch Helian, you're here too?" Looking at Helian Bo who was following behind Luo Lei, Gao Yuan had a smile on his face. Clasped fists in both hands, "This time, if it weren't for the help of Patriarch Helian, I would have at least doubled the losses of the Eastern Army. Thank you Gao Yuan here."

"Don't dare!" He Lianbo bowed and saluted, "General Gao is too polite.

"

"I'm not being polite, these soldiers of mine have returned from hundreds of battles, and each of them is a treasure in the army!" Gao Yuan sighed, and pointed to the tomb of the Yan family who died in the distance, "Who are they? , so they are not warriors in all battles, but it is a pity that some people actually pushed them to death for self-interest, thinking about it is really painful."

"The general is merciful!" Luo Lei complimented, "General Gao, Patriarch Helian is here to ask for something. Please let me introduce the general for him. I think General Gao Yi will definitely not disappoint Patriarch Helian. .”

"Oh?" Gao Yuan said with a smile: "I don't know what Patriarch Helian wants Gao to do for you, but as long as I can do it, the Patriarch will not be disappointed."

He Lianbo stared at Gao Yuan, and said: "General Gao, I want to lead all of my Helian family to join General Gao, and I hope the general will not hesitate to take him in."

Gao Yuan was slightly stunned, "Patriarch Helian, I am puzzled about something, and I ask the patriarch to explain it to me."

"General, please speak!"

"Zhou Yu has led his troops so far, and has done nothing to the Helian clan. Presumably, he also has the intention of recruiting the Helian tribe. If compared with his background and power, Zhou Yu is many times stronger than me. Weak?" Gao Yuan asked.

"Zhou Yu really wants to recruit my family, but he is different from the general. He not only wants us to serve him, but also regards us as his slaves. Qiu has done nothing wrong? General Gao really thinks highly of him. He came here After that, the first thing he did was to detain the weak women and children of my Helian clan, and approached us to serve him. He wanted me as an elite fighter in our clan, and he only wanted me to fight for him. As for how to arrange me Ministry, but he didn't mention a word." He Lianbo sneered, "But thanks to him, he asked me to wait to spy on the general's whereabouts, so that I could meet with Luo Lei."

Gao Yuan nodded. He Lianbo was telling the truth. People like Zhou Yu must have the idea that they are not of my race, and their hearts must be different. They are more interested in taking advantage of these Huns. When you want to use it, throw some honey over it, and when you don't use it, it's a great stick. This He Lianbo also seems to be a shrewd person, how could he be willing to be fooled by this?

"How do you know that I'm different from him?" Gao Yuan asked, "Don't forget, Patriarch Helian, I'm also from Dayan."

He Lianbo laughed, "Just because you uttered these words, General Gao, is enough to prove that you are different from Zhou Yu, what's more, there are vivid examples before me, as far away as Zhou Yu." The Helan clan and the Gongsun clan are not mentioned, let’s say they are the Buyi clan. If the general met them, if he insisted on seizing the cattle and sheep property of the Buyi clan, the major generals of the Buyi clan would not be able to resist. But to spread the matter out, this kind of aboveboard behavior is enough to make Helian admire. I, the Huns, don't have so many tricks, and I'm used to being straightforward. I despise people like Zhou Yu who don't agree with each other. of."

"Thank you, Patriarch Helian, for your attention!" Gao Yuan smiled. "Since Patriarch Helian said so, I won't hide it anymore. The Helian clan is different from the Buyi clan. The Helian clan was originally the majority of the Huns. Within your camp, there are still tens of thousands of tribesmen."

He Lianbo's face changed slightly, and he was a little dejected, "The general is right, the elites of my Helian clan were all lost in the battle with Qin. Right now, there are no more than a thousand people who can fight, and the rest are old people, women, and children. , Whoever accepts us is tantamount to carrying a huge burden. It is reasonable for the general not to want to."

"No, Patriarch Helian misunderstood me!" Gao Yuan shook his head, "Patriarch Helian is willing to vote for the Eastern Army, and he probably learned about some of our policies for the Eastern Army from He Lanxiong, Gongsun Yi and others. Although there are many old people and children, as long as they come to my Jishi City, it is not a problem to support themselves, I don’t mean here.”

"Please tell the general!" He Lianbo was both surprised and delighted when he heard that Gao Yuan didn't care about these old and weak women and children.

"The general knows the benefits of my conquest of the East Mansion for the people under me. These benefits don't matter whether you are from the Central Plains or the Huns. As long as you are under my rule, you will be treated equally. But the general may not know about our other management policies. If The patriarch understands this and is still willing to join, so Gao Yuan welcomes with both hands." Gao Yuan spread his hands. He looked at Helian Bo.

"Please tell me, General."

"First, if you join my Eastern Conquest Army, the military power of your Helian clan will have to be reorganized, and the whole must be integrated into my Eastern Conquest Army. It is impossible to become a small group again. To put it more clearly, maybe in the future. Chief Helian The soldiers under your command, the men and horses belonging to your clan are pitifully few."

Helianbo was stunned for a moment.

"Secondly, the Helian clan used to have their own rules and regulations for tribal governance and their own management methods. But when they join the Eastern Conquest Army, they can only abide by one law, and that is the law of our Eastern Mansion. That is to say, Patriarch Helian, you will gradually lose the right to rule the tribe, and you will gradually become a general and an official in my Zhengdong Mansion."

"And corresponding to what you lost, the people of the Helian tribe will get land, cattle and sheep, houses, and be protected by our Eastern Army from outsiders. The people of the Helian tribe enjoy the same rights as other people. Various rights and benefits, including their appointment as officials, promotions, etc.”

Helianbo remained silent.

Gao Yuan smiled, "Patriarch Helian think about it carefully. I think there are a lot of young men in the Helian clan. Maybe after a few years, they will rise again."

He Lianbo sighed: "How can it be so easy? Now on the grasslands, the weak are preyed on by the strong. My Helian clan is weak now, and the number of people who can fight is only a few times, but they have so many people, cattle and sheep, in the grassland. In the eyes of many people, it is a piece of fresh meat that cannot be fatter. Anyone wants to bite. Besides, we helped the general defeat Zhou Yu in this battle. If this person wants to take revenge, how can our family survive? I'm afraid we won't be able to wait for these boys to grow up!"

"If there is something to give up, it depends on how Patriarch Helian chooses." Gao Yuan sighed: "Patriarch Helian, don't blame me for crossing the river and tearing down the bridge. Otherwise, disputes will easily arise. Only if everyone abandons their own small groups and completely integrates into a big family, can they live in harmony, help each other, and overcome difficulties together. The only thing I can promise to Patriarch Helian is that if you go to Now, I will definitely regard your Helian family as the same as other people."

He Lianbo was silent for a moment, "General Gao, please allow me to go back and have a good discussion with the clansmen before replying?"

"No problem. This is a big matter. It cannot be settled with a single word. General Helian, our army will march out tomorrow. Tonight, please discuss it with Patriarch Helian and the people. Luo Lei, send Helian off for me. Patriarch." Gao Yuan smiled.

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Gao Yuan was thoughtful. The Helian clan is not a small clan like Buyi. Although it is difficult at the moment, there are a large number of people in the clan, and there are nearly two thousand boys in their teens After a few years, it will be an extremely defensive army. If they can join, it will naturally greatly improve the combat capability of the East Conquering Army. , but they cannot be annexed first and then divided, which can easily lead to disputes. They are not the Gongsun clan or the Buyi clan.

These little kids are good! Gao Yuan laughed after thinking about it. When he arrived at Jishi City, he sent them to school. After a few years, they would be fully integrated into his system.

Regarding the update, it’s because Qidian made a wireless launcher, so it will be one day earlier than Qidian. It’s not because I’m confused. The power of piracy is too great. They can always steal updates at the first time. I can’t do anything about it. , and there is no other way, now even the strength of anger is gone. The audience for history reading is relatively small, and the subscriptions are not high in the first place. If there is a pirated version, it will be even more bleak. One day, the pirated version will make us disappear. By the way, in the end, I would like to thank Fat Long, The Ending Xiongxiong, Xiao Shao 327, Quick Freeze and other book friends for their rewards. Bow, salute, exit, code words go! ） ()
