The forty-first chapter of the country's major events, in the sacrifice and the Rong
The explosion was so powerful that the Huns around a radius of hundreds of meters were all in a trance that was dizzy and buzzed in their ears.
When they gradually came to their senses, a large number of Han cavalry had already entered through the gap in the wall.
The morale of the Huns collapsed directly because they could not understand the thunderous explosion.
Unknown matters always make people frighten. The frightened Huns threw down their weapons and scattered in dismay. Their collapse also led to a chain reaction, leading to the collapse of the city's defense.
The Yulin Army came to revenge with anger. After rushing into the city, they all turned into the god of killing. With their hands rising and falling, blood flowed into a river.
Su Chen was not interested in stopping this killing. The blood-stricken hatred that had been entangled between the Han Dynasty and the Huns for decades could only be washed away with blood. He couldn't care about this matter, nor did he want to.
At this time, Su Chen's thoughts were all focused on finding the golden man who sacrificed the sky.
It is easy to see how much wealth the Huns are, either by how many cattle, sheep, horses and slaves they belong to, or by how big his tent is.
If you want to find a golden man in Xiutu Wang City for a few days, just go to the largest tent, because that must be Xiutu Wang’s.
The tents in the royal city seem to be messy, but in fact there are still traces to follow.
The outermost are ragged and small tents, while the middle is a tent that is much larger and the holes are sewn. Only in the middle is the lotus-like arrangement is the gorgeous tents for those truly identifiable and status-based noble people.
Located in the center of the entire royal city, the largest and most gorgeous one must be the one of Xiu Tu.
At this time, the entire royal city was in chaos, and all the Huns were yelling in fear and fleeing desperately.
Seeing that the Huns completely gave up their resistance, Huo Qubing divided the Yulin Army into a team of 100 people, holding a knife in one hand and holding a torch in the other, galloping around and setting fire.
Fireworks were everywhere in the entire Xiutu Royal City, panicked crowds everywhere, and people, horses, cattle and sheep were wailing everywhere.
King Xiu Tu’s tent is very big, and it looks similar to those ordinary supermarkets in the modern world.
At this time, there was also chaos in front of the king's tent. The king's tent, the Gudu Hou and other senior officials were fleeing for the desperate situation. As for the guards, they had long disappeared.
Su Chen turned over and dismounted, ignored the chaotic crowd, and walked into the tent with a pistol in his hand.
Some women wearing luxurious clothes and beautiful appearances were packing up their gold, silver and soft materials to run away. When they saw Su Chen coming in, they were all scared and screamed.
‘Bang!’ Su Chen broke a glass vase with one shot and shouted at the women, "Save all the gold for me!"
The women's faces were so scared that they didn't dare to clean up any more. They threw away the package and ran out with their heads in their arms.
The tent is very large, with thick carpets on the ground and many furs hanging. Various kinds of gold, silver, fine and weapons are scattered everywhere. Many boxes piled up around are also filled with silk, satin and various exquisite objects from the Han area, especially glass and glass.
Su Chen even saw more than ten bottles of red wine he had wholesale, and was amazed at the luxury and wealth of the Hun nobles.
He looked around the entire tent, but he did not see the golden man who sacrificed the sky. Su Chen frowned and pulled out an old man with a goatee from the pile of gorgeous clothes.
He pressed the old man's chest with a pistol, "Say, where is the golden man who sacrifices heaven?"
The old man looked at Su Chen with a puzzled look, not understanding what he was doing with such a small thing.
Su Chen then remembered that the old man didn't understand the power of the gun at all, so he turned the muzzle and shattered a bottle of red wine on the desk next to him.
When the gun was pressed against his chest again, the old man was scared now. But he opened his mouth and said a few words of humiliation.
Su Chen looked depressed, and he had to find an interpreter.
Perhaps because he was scared, the old man treated Su Chen's depression as anger, afraid that Su Chen would also use his chest to smash it into pieces, and he actually started to speak Chinese.
"The golden man sacrifices the heavens are at the altar."
Su Chen grabbed the old man's collar and walked out of the king's tent. He worked so hard these days for the legendary golden man made of gold. He was already eager to harvest his spoils.
Huo Qubing, who was full of energy, felt very happy. He rushed to the royal city of the Huns thousands of miles and successfully avenged thousands of tragically dead Yulin Army comrades. This refreshing feeling made his blood boil.
Looking at the Xiu Tu Royal City, which was full of fire everywhere, the satisfied Huo Qubing began to search for Su Chen's traces.
When Huo Qubing arrived at the altar in the city, he was shocked to see Su Chen sitting by the stone platform with a depressed look on his face.
Huo Qubing stepped forward in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Su Chen spit out the smoke ring and pointed behind him with a dark face.
Huo Qubing turned around and saw a statue of god shining with golden light on the altar not far away, more than three meters high.
"This is!" Huo Qubing was overjoyed and said, "Sacrificing to the Heavenly Golden Man?"
The word "sacrificial" is no longer so important in the modern world. But in this era, it is like a spiritual totem.
As early as the Spring and Autumn Period, Chinese people understood the importance of sacrifice.
The eight words "The major events of the country are in sacrifice and military affairs" deeply describe the importance of force and spirit.
This battle not only slaughtered the royal city of Xiu Turen, but also seized the crucial golden man who sacrificed the heaven. This is definitely a great merit. The matter of being a marquis is stable.
Huo Qubing, who couldn't even close his mouth, asked Su Chen curiously, "Don't you want this golden man? Now that I've found it, why are you feeling depressed?"
Su Chen snatched out the cigarette butt and stretched out his hand. There was a faint layer of gold powder on his palm.
"I thought it was pure gold, but who knew it was actually bronze, but it was just a layer of gold powder, and it was a foreign monk."
"Foreign monk?" Buddhism has not been introduced to the Central Plains in this era, and Huo Qubing has no understanding of this new term at all.
Su Chen took him to the Jinren and pointed at the Jinren's face. "Look at his face, is it very similar to the Hu people who sell dates and grapes in the East City of Chang'an City?"
Huo Qubing looked carefully and it looked very similar.
With high eyebrows and deep eyes, high nose bridge, and bearded with a beard all over his face, he looks like a Hu people in the Western Regions.
"If I read it correctly, this is a statue of Ares." Su Chen explained to Huo Qubing. "More than two hundred years ago, a man named Alexander in the distant West launched a large-scale eastern expedition with a Greek army. They conquered a large amount of land along the way and built Hellenistic towns. For example, Dayuan was actually their descendants."
"Oh. What kind of mountain behind this statue was brought by that mountain?" It was obvious that Huo Qubing was very interested in this exotic thing. While urging Su Chen to continue, he skillfully went to get Su Chen's cigarette box.
Su Chen smiled and said, "After Alexander died, his empire was divided up by his generals, and Dayuan was one of them. They spread Greek culture in the Western Regions and liked to make various sculptures. This is one of them."
"How did you know?"
Su Chen signaled to the old Huns on the altar, "He said he was the prime minister of the Xiu Tu tribe, and said that the Jin people were stolen from the Dayuan people. This bronze statue is Ares, the god of war worshipped by the Greeks."
He was already smiling from ear to ear, but Huo Qubing had to force himself to endure it and comfort Su Chen, "Although this is not made of gold, it is also a rare merit, and the emperor will definitely reward him."
Su Chen took a deep breath, "Do you think the emperor will give me gold?"
Liu Che did not forbid Su Chen from doing business in Chang'an City to make money, but it was difficult for him to give gold directly. Because Liu Che wanted to use gold to tempt Su Chen to use the medicine for immortality.
Huo Qubing gave a meal, "There can be something else without gold."
Su Chen looked up at him, "Then I'll give you something else, you give me all your gold."
Huo Qubing stood up calmly, threw away the cigarette butt and stepped on it. He put his hands behind his back and walked further and further away with all directions. "The weather is really good today."
A carriage slowly drove towards the southeast, surrounded by hundreds of laughter and joyful Yulin soldiers. Behind them was the Xiutu Royal City, where flames soared into the sky, and the entire town was shrouded in thick smoke.
The Yulin Army began to return to Chang'an City south, and what awaited them would be a grand celebration banquet.
As for Su Chen, he returned to the modern world with a loneliness.
He has been skipping classes for almost a week and must go to class tomorrow.
When Su Chen returned to the rental house, he looked at the promotional materials of many high-end communities placed on the table and frowned and sighed.
He thought that if the Huns' gold sacrifices to heaven were really made of gold, it would probably weigh one ton. With so much gold, even the top-notch house would be fine.
It’s a pity that his dream is broken, and he will continue to live in this rental house in the short term.
Su Chen, who was bored, was lying on the sofa, picked up his phone and prepared to order takeaway, but the phone suddenly rang.
After seeing it, it was Fang Xinyan who called him. Su Chen was also confused and didn't know what she had to do with her.
"Is there something wrong?"
When Su Chen answered the phone, he asked casually. However, the other end of the phone was silent, with only a slightly heavy breathing sound.
Su Chen frowned, he could hear that the breathing sound was from a man.
After a moment of silence, a slightly hoarse and weird voice sounded, "Mr. Su, this is our first time talking on the phone."
Su Chen sat up and said, "Who are you? Why call me on Fang Xinyan's phone?"
"Ms. Fang Xinyan is visiting me." Footsteps sounded from the other end of the phone. After a moment, Su Chen heard Fang Xinyan's crying cry, "Help."
Now Su Chen knows that this is not a prank, that something really happened.
Su Chen calmly took out the cigarette and said, "What do you want, say it."
A harsh laugh rang out from the other end of the phone, "You misunderstood, I don't need anything, I just invited your girlfriend to visit. Of course, if you are willing to have dinner together, I will feel very honored."
Su Chen narrowed his eyes and said "Address."
"There is a car waiting for you downstairs in your house."
Su Chen got up and put on his shoes, and before hanging up his phone, he asked again, "Who are you?"
