Chapter 946: Regard Great Yan as Great Tang(2/2)

[A book-chasing app recommended to me by an old book friend I’ve known for ten years, Yeguoyuedu! It’s so easy to use. I rely on it to pass the time while driving and before going to bed by reading and listening to books. You can download it here.yeguoyuedu]

Because this time, it was no longer a leisurely caravan, but foreigners with bald heads and braided hair, evil deeds and evil looks. The loud shouts and shouts could be heard in the distance, as if invisible sharp blades were piercing them.

"Enemy attack!

Enemy attack!

"

The Shanhaiguan Pass, which had not yet been completely built, was immediately mobilized. Both the guards and the officials from the Ministry of Industry responded immediately. Even the prisoners rushed into the city gate like crazy.

But some people took the initiative to greet them, waving their arms and shouting: "Take us away! We are willing to be loyal to Daliao!"

But soon, the expressions of these people changed, because they discovered that there were already people on the horses of this group of foreign cavalry.

The scholar-bureaucrats who had come to perform before were sitting stiffly on their horses, their faces pale, and they did not dare to move.

The target of the foreign cavalry was also very clear, and they had no intention of attacking Shanhaiguan. They swung the lasso, aimed at the most incompatible felon, and pulled him over.

"ah--"

When Ren Shenxian screamed in the clouds, Wanyan Zonghan stretched out his arm and lifted the person up as if grabbing a chicken. Then he laughed loudly and said in Khitan dialect: "Tell King Yan that he severely punished the scholar-bureaucrats and punished Ren

His son was enslaved, which aroused public outrage, and all these scholars went north to the Golden Realm and took refuge with us!"

Everyone in Shanhaiguan was suddenly stunned. Ren Shenxian was also stunned and was put on the horse stupidly.

By the time he reacted, his mouth had been blocked by a rag, and his voice suddenly became unclear: "Hu... barbarians... humiliation...!"

Wanyan Zonghanli ignored the whining sound. Since there were many people in the scene who could understand Khitan, he just reported it to King Yan. He led his men and ran towards the gap that had been chosen long ago.

Including the officers and soldiers guarding the pass, before they could react, they saw this group of people roaring back and forth, taking hundreds of scholar-officials out and disappearing from sight. The whole process was extremely fast.

"Hugh—bang!"

By the time the warning fireworks, representing the war, exploded in mid-air, the golden cavalry had already disappeared.

On the horseback, his bones were almost falling apart. Ren Shenxian fully understood what had happened and wailed in his heart: "I have rectified my father's name, been praised by scholars, and have a great future. How can I be kidnapped to a barbarian land? Kill me."

Let me, I don’t want to be humiliated like this!”

"Hahaha! When this news reaches Yanjing, the King of Yan will be furious, and our Jin people's counterattack has begun!"

When he thought that he could successfully kidnap so many once-high-ranking scholar-bureaucrats from the Central Plains, and even resorted to clever tactics to sow discord and cause chaos in the Yan country, Wanyan Zonghan couldn't help but laugh so hard that Ren Shenxian's ears almost went deaf.

But soon, the laughter stopped abruptly.

Because not long after leaving the customs, dust was flying in front and the ground was shaking. It was obvious that another cavalry had arrived.

Wanyan Zonghan's smile quickly disappeared. He judged the size of the incoming force and his face suddenly turned pale: "There are at least a thousand cavalry. Is it my tribe's reinforcements or... the Yan army?"

The reinforcements of the Jin people are really not like that, because if you go deep into this place, there will not be such a large-scale cavalry.

The Yan army's cavalry is indeed scarce. Except for the heavy armored cavalry "Iron Buddha", the light cavalry is probably the same size as the previous Zhao and Song dynasties, less than 10,000 people.

In recent raids on grain roads and defensive battles, they have often been led by the Jin cavalry and cannot take advantage of them. However, since the fortresses have been built enough and they can return to the stronghold at any time, the Jin people cannot take much advantage either.

But now there are more than a thousand people, Wanyan Zonghan only has 300 people, and he has taken so many hostages, which is simply unmatched. We can only hope that the one who comes is the support of the Jin army.

But soon, the knights with neat armor and well-armed weapons broke Wanyan Zonghan's luck. He gritted his teeth and gained wisdom: "King Yan did not dare to offend the scholar-officials, otherwise he would have died long ago. Use them as shields! Use them as shields."

!”

Ren Shen didn't understand the Jurchen language at first, but he soon realized what this group of people were going to do. The powerful arms of Qiu Jie grabbed him and held him in front of him.

"How could you..."

He originally thought that death would be better than being humiliated, but at this moment his survival instinct took over and he immediately began to struggle.

But how could the normally frail literati contend with this group of arrogant and powerful Jurchen cavalry? Each one of them was held up in front of them, and they could not help but greet those who came forward.

All the scholar-bureaucrats could not help but look sad.

Just like Wanyan Zonghan thought, they also thought that the Yan army would throw rat weapons and not dare to shoot arrows. After all, their own characteristics were obvious, but they were all ashamed and angry at the thought of encountering such unexpected changes: "Being captured in the enemy's territory, our reputation will be completely lost."

!The reputation is ruined!”

Fortunately, they didn't have to worry about being captured by the enemy, because the leading general on the opposite side shouted loudly, bent his bow and drew an arrow: "Where can there be so many scholars in the border area?"

After his subordinates all raised their divine arm bows to take aim, he ordered: "Your Majesty has given an order, there are thieves at the border to disturb the morale of the army, the priority is to snipe the enemy, don't worry, kill without mercy!

"

Whoosh——

In an instant, the sound of bowstrings played the cruelest music, the arrows danced the most gorgeous dance, and deadly meteors rushed towards the enemy with cold light.

There are only enemies here!

Phew! Phew!

The sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh could be clearly heard, followed by a scream.

There are some Confucian scholars and some Jin people.

For example, Ren Shenxian, who was lifted up, felt several bursts of severe pain in his chest, and then Wanyan Zonghan also screamed in shock and anger: "Ouch!"

Looking at the arrow feathers that were pierced into the shoulder and still trembling, Wanyan Zonghan showed horror and roared: "The Yan army does not care about the life and death of the scholar-bureaucrats, they are a burden, throw them away! Throw them away!

"

"Peng!"

Ren Shenxian soared into the clouds again and fell hard to the ground.

Severe pain spread throughout his body, and he stared blankly as he watched the scholar-bureaucrats being thrown down like rags, blood and water mixed with dust flying over them.

The one who was closest was the old Confucian scholar who met me from a distance not long ago and was full of encouragement...

Why do you dare to kill scholars like this?

Could it be that your Majesty believed what the golden thief said?

Then my posthumous name...isn't my father's posthumous name...
