Great Han Empire

Chapter 28 Rising Sun
February 184 AD.

Murong Feng's army withdrew to Huoyunyuan, the original pasture of the Huo Diao tribe.Here, six years ago, King Xianbei rewarded it and all the Huo Diao tribes to Ke Zui.Now, it has returned to its original owner and returned to Murong Feng's hands.

Murong Feng executed Que Ju.He rewarded all the pastures and properties of the Tiger Tribe and Changlu Tribe, as well as the men, women, children, and children of the tribes, to the tribes who fought with him and those who helped and supported him.He Lian also rewarded Murong Feng with everything of the Qiming tribe in the western Xianbei.The pasture of the Qiming tribe is next to the pasture of the Tuoba tribe.Tuoba Feng wanted it very much.He sent his son Tuoba Kui and the tribe's marshal Tuoba Wei to Huoyunyuan, and asked Murongfeng to buy everything in the Qiming tribe with generous conditions.Murong Feng nodded immediately without saying a word.But then they made an even more alluring side request: fifty war horses in exchange for the families of Ke Zui and Que Ju.

Murong Feng immediately remembered that this was all caused by Ke Zui and Que Ju, but now his family has been implicated.A few years ago, Ke Zui led his troops to quell the rainbow tribe's rebellion.After Ke Zui's big victory, he ordered Que Ju to massacre the whole clan of Jindun, the commander of Rainbow Tribe.Jin Dun's sister is Tuoba Feng's mother.At that time, Tuoba Feng was just an adult of a relatively large tribe in the west. He was not as powerful as Ke, nor as powerful as Ke. The Rainbow tribe was rebellious, so he had to swallow his anger and keep silent.Now the world is turned upside down.Ke Zui Queju became a traitor, and Tuoba Feng became the master of Xianbei in the west. Naturally, this old score has to be settled.

Tuoba Kui begged: "This is my grandma's intention. Please grant her a little wish."

Of course Murong Feng agreed.Xianbei people have no culture and education, and it is normal for father and son to fight against each other when they are at odds with each other.But he respects his mother very much, and no one dares to disobey her.If you treat your mother badly, you will be cast aside by the entire Xianbei tribe.

Murong Feng did not do anything to Ke Zui and Que Ju's family members.They have been living quietly in Hudu.Tie Ao of the Black Eagle Tribe once had the idea of ​​getting Ke Zui's family to be slaves in Yingzui Cliff, but was stopped by Murong Feng.He only asked Tie Ao a word, and Tie Ao shook his head and left.

Murong Feng asked Tie Ao: "Do you hate Ke Zui, or Ke Zui's family?"

Li Hong worships Murong Feng.He saw Murong Feng's every move, every word and deed, and remembered it in his heart.He felt that the reason why Murong Feng was able to gain the admiration of the entire Xianbei people was inseparable from his own charisma.He is wholeheartedly for the Xianbei country, for the people of the Xianbei country.As long as it is beneficial to the Xianbei country, he will spare no effort to do it well.He's also a kind, emotional man.For the sake of his friends, he can also sacrifice his principles.

Since the Battle of Jutun, Li Hong has one more thing every night.According to Murong Feng's instructions, he traveled around the barracks to visit the soldiers, junior officers, and generals who participated in the Battle of Jutun, and listened to them explain every detail of what happened on the battlefield.He recorded all this with a strange text.He didn't know why he could write and recognize this kind of writing, and the lost memory was really hard to get back.During the day, apart from recuperating from injuries, the officers and soldiers who are more familiar with the tribes are talking nonsense.This situation was maintained until the tribes bid farewell to Murong Feng and withdrew their troops from the Bark Creek camp.

After Li Hong returned to Huoyunyuan with Murongfeng, he began to sort out the entire battle of Jutun.One day, Li Hong suddenly discovered that this battle basically included everything about cavalry warfare.From strategy to tactics, from offense to defense, from formation to formation, from counterattack to raid, from general to soldier...it turns out that this is a classic cavalry battle.Li Hong's understanding of cavalry combat immediately rose to a whole new level.With Murong Feng's guidance and practice, coupled with the summary and understanding of the Battle of Jutun this time, Li Hong began to have his own ideas about the war.

Murong Feng spent two nights listening carefully to Li Hong's lectures and readings, and then made a lot of revisions to Li Hong's summary of the campaign, combining his more than 20 years of actual combat experience.He talked eloquently, and Li Hong immersed himself in memorizing.Then he read it to Murong Feng, and it turned out to be verbatim.Murong Feng reached out and took the cowhide sheets on which Li Hong wrote, and was dumbfounded.What the hell, rows of strangely shaped symbols.

"Are these big Chinese characters?" Murong Feng asked in surprise, "Big Chinese characters are not like this."

Li Hong was also puzzled by Monk Zhang Er, "Really?"

"The first few characters are somewhat similar, but not all. The characters of the Great Han Dynasty are very beautiful. The characters are flat and solemn. The writing effect is slightly wide and flat. The horizontal strokes are long and the vertical strokes are short. What you wrote is a bit like Zhangcao written by Han people. Zhangcao is a relatively sloppy way of writing for you Han people to improve the efficiency of writing. The latter is not a big Chinese character at all."

"You spoke so fast that I didn't have time to write. In a hurry, I couldn't help but write it out. But I know it. What's going on?"

Murong Feng shook his head, "You don't have a memory, but what you used to do, you can do it naturally under special circumstances. It's good to have one more skill. It's useless to think about it, let's just let nature take its course." .”

Li Hong thinks about it too, let him go, don't care.

"After sorting it out, what words should I use to transcribe it?"

"Xianbei has no written language, so we have to use big Chinese characters." Murong Feng said with a smile.

"But you can't say all the characters I wrote like Chinese characters. I have transcribed them, so what if you don't know many characters?"

Murong Feng frowned slightly, and said slowly: "I really want to leave something for future generations, so I thought of tidying up the ins and outs of the battle at Jutun, which can be regarded as a start. You must work hard to do well. Let me I don’t have time to teach you. Tomorrow I will call a Xianbei person who can write Chinese characters to help you for a few days.”

The next day, a very old Xianbei old man walked into Li Hong's camp.This old man was called Murongyou, and he fought with the Xianbei army in the early years against the Han Dynasty, and was captured by the Han Dynasty.Later, he stayed in the Han Kingdom for more than ten years and learned the writing and language of the Han Kingdom.After Tan Shihuai defeated the Han people, the two sides exchanged prisoners, and the old man was able to return to his hometown.Murong Feng kept him by his side.Only recently moved back from Dayanshan with the troops left behind.Murongyou is very talkative, helping to correct Li Hong's mistakes in the fonts of the Han Dynasty, (in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the official script was very popular. The official script originated in the Qin Dynasty, basically evolved from the Xiaozhuan created by Qin Lisi, and reached its peak in the Eastern Han Dynasty , Calligraphy is known as "Han Li Tang Kai".) While talking to Li Hong about the people and customs of the Han Dynasty.Li Hong was fascinated by what he heard, and he suddenly had the idea of ​​going home.

With the help of this kind and enthusiastic old man, Li Hong's speed of organizing and transcribing became even slower.Murongyou thinks that Li Hongquan's spoken words are simply bullshit.Li Hong was not convinced, and said that you should write it to me.Murong You was also polite, and just raised his pen to write.After finishing writing, he proudly asked Li Hong to read it.When Li Hong saw it, he was very familiar with it, but he just didn't quite understand the meaning.As soon as Murong You listened to the music, how could the commander-in-chief entrust this matter to you? It's just playing the piano randomly.So he began to explain word by word, which made Li Hong's head stunned.But he always felt that what Murong You wrote was very familiar to him.But why can't I just not understand the meaning?

This morning, he practiced attacking with several of Murong Feng's attendants outside the camp, and the two sides fought very fiercely.Suddenly, a sudden sound of horseshoes startled them.Li Hong and several attendants stopped fighting, turned around and looked into the distance.

A group of seven or eight Xianbei men surrounded a man riding a white horse, wearing a high crown, and dressed in white like snow, rolling towards the camp like the wind.

"People from the Tauren tribe." An attendant immediately recognized them from the clothes they wore.Although Li Hong has been in Xianbei for more than seven months, he has no way to identify the people of the various tribes in Xianbei. In his opinion, Xianbei people all have shaved heads, big beards, and wear various leather or embroidered cloth clothes. They look similar. .

All eyes were on the man in white.In Li Hong's memory, it was the first time he saw a person wearing a high crown in Xianbei.

"Who is that person?" Li Hong asked casually.

"Fuyu people." Fuyu country is not a very big country in the southeast of Xianbei country.

The group of people soon arrived at the gate of Daying, and drove straight to the big tent of Lord Xianbei Murong Feng in the middle.The man in white was clearly visible.The white horse under this person is very tall and vigorous, with a wide body and round arms, and a mane as white and soft as snow.Such a BMW is really rare.Li Hong's gaze was immediately firmly attracted.The man on horseback was dressed in white silk clothes and a white cloak, fluttering in the wind, elegant and unrestrained.There is a high crown made of bamboo strips on it, and two feet of white gauze is covered under it, and its face is faintly visible, which looks very mysterious.

Watching them walk into Murong Feng's big tent, several people looked away.

"What a horse." Li Hong admired sincerely, "It's really a BMW."

"Leopards have vision. It's a hard-earned horse from the Western Regions. It has endless stamina and endurance, and it's also a riding horse suitable for long-distance running. Even its jumping is better than the wild horses on our Tianmayuan." A guard immediately Ended the conversation.

"The horses on our Xianbei Tianma Plain are also the best in the world."

Several people immediately argued.

Murong Feng had a rare free time today, so he made an appointment with Li Hong to come to the big tent in the afternoon, and make another revision about the battle of Jutun that he had compiled and transcribed recently.Li Hong took the one written by himself and the one written by Murongyou, and prepared to let Murongfeng choose by himself.

Li Hong approached Murong Feng's big tent, and saw a few Xianbei people who came flying in the morning, still standing outside the tent and chatting.The man in white was not there, probably still in the big tent.When the Xianbei men saw him, they immediately showed surprise on their faces, and then no one spoke.

Li Hong walked into the big tent, and saw a person kneeling in the center of the big tent, that is the Fuyu man in white that he saw from a distance in the morning.Gao Guan put it aside.Murong Feng was sitting on the animal skin mattress on one side of the big tent, looking at something on a huge map.It was a map made of cowhide, which Li Hong thought was very simple.Murong Feng treats it like a treasure.

When Murong Feng saw Li Hong walking in, he quickly waved to him, signaling him to sit beside him.Li Hong quickly walked around the man, and suddenly smelled a faint fragrance in his nose.He secretly looked sideways at the person kneeling on the ground, unexpectedly, the person kneeling on the ground just looked up at him.The two made eye contact.

Li Hong's heart suddenly beat violently, and suddenly, he felt a strong sense of suffocation.He couldn't help but took a quick breath.A beautiful face just reflected in my heart.He seemed to be afraid that people would see that he was flustered, so he hurriedly walked behind Murong Feng and sat down.Taking the opportunity of putting down a pile of cowhide, he tried his best to calm down his emotions.Although I was still thinking about that beautiful face of Yi Chen Yi Xi in my mind, I was no longer as nervous as before.
"Xue'er, this is the leopard I told you just now." Murong Feng said to the girl kneeling on the ground with a pleasant smile.

"Leopard." Murong Feng shouted.Li Hong quickly raised his head.Murong Feng pointed to Feng Xue and said to him: "This is Lord Feng Lie's youngest daughter, named Feng Xue." Li Hong followed Murong Feng's hand and looked at Feng Xue.The sneaky hold just now had caused Li Hong's soul to fly into the sky, but now he can boldly look over it justifiably, which immediately made Li Hong feel amazed.Feng Xue on the opposite side knelt down on the ground and saluted Li Hong very politely.

Li Hong is now well-known in Xianbei.First, Murong Feng was rescued from the tiger prison.Then help Murong Feng avoid hunting all the way.In Mazuipo, he picked and killed Keye, a famous Xianbei warrior.The most commendable thing is that he and Iron Wolf rescued Duan Zhen from the pursuit of more than 100 fighters from the Tiger Tribe.Now that Iron Wolf is dead, Murong Feng protects him like his own son. This has spread throughout the central Xianbei.

Li Hong hurriedly returned the gift, his face was already red with embarrassment.

"I have something to discuss with Leopard, do you want to go home first?"

"No. If my uncle doesn't agree, I just won't get up." Feng Xue said resolutely.

Murong Feng seemed to dote on her very much, he shook his head helplessly and said: "You know, I have already agreed to Tuoba Feng's mother's request, how do you ask me to go back on my word?"

"I don't care, I must save their family."

Li Hong next to him immediately understood.This must be Tuoba Kui who went to Hudu to take people and was known by the Niutou tribe.Feng Lie and Que Ju are husband and wife.Feng Lie's family knew about it, so naturally they couldn't do nothing.
