Deep in the grassland, Wang Ben reined in his horse. He has already found clues about Wu Tong.
From the moment he entered the area controlled by the Xiongnu, Wang Ben had been snooping around. They visited many Huns tribes and found that the route taken by Wu Tong and his group was really incredible.
It was full of twists and turns, and once even made several circles around the royal court of the Huns.
This made Wang Ben feel that Wu Tong really didn't want to see Shan Yu, otherwise he wouldn't have been so hesitant about the route.
Now, he has ambushed Wu Tong on his way back.
In fact, the Xiongnu had large areas of barren land, and there were no roads at all in these places.
But the water source is always fixed. If you connect several water source points in series, you can always roughly mark the routes.
Wang Ben divided his troops and laid ambush on three roads. Once Wu Tong is discovered, he immediately reports the news and then kills him.
Wu Tong would definitely not be able to move fast with tens of thousands of cattle and sheep.
When dividing the troops, Wang Ben specifically asked them to pretend to be Donghu people.
Those soldiers were in a bit of trouble. When we put down our hoes, we become farmers, and when we pick up our swords, we become soldiers. These two identities can be switched freely. But dressing up as a Donghu person is a bit troublesome.
Wang Ben said: "It's very simple. Chinese people wear it on the left and barbarians wear it on the right. You can just change the direction of your clothes and wear them on your body. Then loosen your hair and tie it up at the back of your head."
The soldiers said: "However, the Donghu people have many habits. I'm afraid we can't pretend to be too similar. Over time, people will definitely find out."
Wang Ben said: "You don't have to pretend to be too similar, just be plausible. You even have to deliberately create the feeling that you are a Donghu person pretending to be a Central Plains person."
"In this way, we will kill Wu Tong and disperse the cattle and sheep. The Huns will then suspect the Donghu people. This will prevent the news from spreading back to Da Qin and Huai Guzi doubting us."
All the generals said with sincerity: "The general has a clever plan. Huaiguzi will definitely die without a burial place."
Wang Ben smiled and suddenly thought of Wang Li again. He sighed, waved his hand and said, "That's all, go ahead."
So everyone took their troops and horses and left quietly.
Wang Ben brought out only a thousand people. These thousand people should come out in batches. Otherwise, the target would have been too big and they would have been noticed long ago.
Now a thousand people are divided into three waves. There are only three hundred people in each wave.
Three hundred people are not many, but it is enough to kill a few businessmen.
After everyone was arranged, Wang Ben dismounted, sat on the grass, and began to drink the wine he had brought.
A young general next to him said: "Father, my Wang family is in danger now, what should I do? Even if I kill Huaiguzi, it will not help."
Wang Ben looked at the person next to him, feeling a little complicated.
This is his concubine named Wang Heng.
This Wang Heng was born from a female slave. At that time, Wang Ben was just having sex after drinking.
The slave girl's status was very low, and Wang Heng's status was naturally not much higher. In these years, Wang Ben almost forgot that he had such a son.
He didn't like Wang Heng, but Wang Li was dead, and the Wang family always wanted to find a successor. This time when he came to the Huns, Wang Ben also wanted to find a helper, so he chose Wang Heng.
Wang Heng is eighteen years old and in good health. The other sons are either gentle or young and are not suitable for this trip to the Huns.
Of course. Wang Ben chose Wang Heng not because he wanted him to inherit the family business. More importantly, it is an investigation. If he is not qualified, then give up as soon as possible so that you can examine others.
In other words. Wang Ben used the elimination method when searching for his successor. This Wang Heng was the first one he planned to eliminate.
Wang Ben's preconceived dislike made Wang Heng dislike him all the way.
Now listening to Wang Heng's question, Wang Ben asked distractedly: "Then in your opinion, what should we do?"
Wang Hengqing clearly felt the restlessness in his father's words. The warmth and warmth of people in the Wang family over the years have long tempered his heart to be extremely sensitive.
But he did not show it, but desperately seized this opportunity and said the answer he had long thought for: "The cunning rabbit dies, the running dogs are cooked, the birds are gone, and the good bows are hidden. If the Six Kingdoms are not destroyed, the world will not be settled , How could Your Majesty be like this?"
"The Wang family is in danger, of course, because my Wang family tree is big and attracts wind. Of course, it is because Huai Guzi has repeatedly made slanders. But the most important thing is that the general trend of the world has changed. This is the top priority. I dare to say something, even if there is no Huaiguzi, after His Majesty has pacified the world, his next step will be to suppress the generals."
Wang Ben glanced at Wang Heng in surprise and thought: "This guy does have a little bit of knowledge."
Wang Heng continued: "If you want my Wang family to make a comeback, killing Huaiguzi is useless, and making friends with Zhao Gao is also useless."
Wang Ben asked: "Then what do you think is useful?"
Wang Heng looked around and saw that everyone else was sitting far away. Then he felt relieved and said in a low voice: "Respect yourself when raising bandits."
"Last time regarding Xiang Lian, my father had sent spies to the south to find out about Xiang Liang. The boy thought that if Xiang Liang was found, he must not be arrested."
"It's best to fund him secretly, give him money and food, soldiers and horses, and weapons. Let him have the strength."
"Xiang Liang hates the Qin Dynasty deeply. What he dreams of is to destroy Qin and restore Chu. Once he gets the troops, money and food, he will definitely do it. By then, who will the court send to suppress the rebellion?"
"Send Li Xin? He has already been defeated once in Chu Land. If war breaks out in Chu Land and the military situation becomes urgent, the best candidate your Majesty will think of at this time will definitely be me, Wang."
"At that time, my father will lead troops into Chu, and the Wang family will naturally be reused in the court. Once my father enters Chu, it will be better to defeat Xiang Liang than to kill him, and to defeat him than to repel him."
"Although the war is not over, good news comes frequently after all. It has been delayed for a few years, waiting for the collapse of His Majesty's mausoleum. The rumor is that it belongs to Young Master Hu Hai."
"At that time, my father can calmly kill Xiang Liang, lead his troops back to Xianyang, and become the pillar of Qin Dynasty."
After Wang Heng finished speaking, he looked at Wang Ben expectantly.
He had been thinking about this strategy for a long time and thought it was perfect. Now he only needs affirmation. As long as Wang Ben approves, he, Wang Heng, can use Wang's heritage to give full play to his intelligence.
Wang Heng's idol was the former Lord Mengchang.
It's a pity that Wang Ben is not Jing Guojun. What Wang Heng and others received was not praise, but a big slap in the face.
Wang Ben was almost mad and smashed the wine bottle on Wang Heng's head.
He drew his sword, pointed it at Wang Heng, and shouted loudly: "Shu Zi, how dare you say such treasonous words that destroy your family and your clan."
He raised his sword and was about to chop off Wang Heng's head.
The generals not far away were startled and ran over, stopped Wang Ben and said, "General, you must not do this."
Wang Ben was shocked and angry. When he looked at Wang Heng, he always felt that there was some sinister light in this young man's eyes.
"We must kill him, we must kill him." Wang Ben tried his best to push away the generals and waved his sword at Wang Heng.
At this time, a fast horse galloped over. The man on the horse shouted from a distance: "General, general, traces of Wu Tong have been found. Traces of Wu Tong have been found."
The generals around said one after another: "General, it is important to kill Wu Tong."
Wang Ben was almost dragged by the generals and helped to the horse. Wang Ben turned around and glanced at Wang Heng bitterly, then galloped away on his horse.
Wang Heng looked at Wang Ben's back, his expression getting darker and darker.
He didn't say anything, just silently loosened his hair and changed his clothes from left to right. Then he got on his horse and followed the big team.
…………
Wu Tong didn't know all this. He was busy doing business recently. He suddenly discovered that there were three thousand Huns escorting him, and his business was going extremely smoothly.
Those Xiongnu tribes bought his things without much counter-offering.
I guess...these tribes thought Wu Tong was sent by Shanyu. They are expressing their loyalty to Shan Yu in a special way.
These days, not only Wu Tong is happy, but all the people under him are also happy. This time, I made ten times the profit.
When Wu Tong brought them out, it was deception and threats. Along the way, they scolded Wu Tong a lot.
But now, they discovered that Wu Tong was simply a god.
How could it be so smooth when doing business with the Huns in the past? If you meet someone who is reasonable, you may trade fairly, or if you meet someone who is unreasonable, you may simply rob the goods.
But this time, who dares to do anything?
It was nothing more than shocking the ordinary Huns, but he was actually still chatting and laughing with Shanyu in the court of Shanyu. This kind of thing can last a lifetime if you return to Xianyang.
Now that all the goods have been sold, there is no need to make any detours. The next step is to go straight back to my hometown.
Just when the caravan members were happy and tired, dust suddenly started flying in front of them.
These days, the Huns who had been guarding the side suddenly became nervous, and they all shouted loudly: Enemy attack, enemy attack..."
Then, they rushed out in a swarm.
The caravan was panicked and asked Wu Tong: "What should we do?"
Wu Tong stroked his beard and said: "It doesn't matter. The Huns are brave and good at fighting. A group of thieves can still be dealt with. Come, bring me my wine flask. I want to drink and watch the battle."
Everyone was so impressed that they quickly brought Wu Tong a wine bottle.
The Xiongnu had a large number of soldiers, but their weapons were lagging behind compared to Wang Ben's Qin soldiers.
What's more, the soldiers Wang Ben brought out were all Qin soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles, the best of the best.
As for the Xiongnu, these three thousand people were more responsible for guarding, intimidating the thieves and intimidating the Donghu. Their combat power was not the highest.
So three thousand Xiongnu soldiers faced one thousand Qin soldiers. The Huns were killed and retreated steadily.
Wu Tong felt that his legs were a little weak, so he said, "I want to sit down and watch." He sat down.
At this time, the Huns soldiers were retreating and Wang Ben was approaching step by step. There were even some Qin soldiers who were eager to bypass the Huns and massacre the caravan.
Everyone in the caravan was terrified. Only Wu Tong looked nonchalant and fearless. Everyone secretly admired him.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow flew towards Wu Tong and nailed the caravan's ox cart with a buzzing sound, right next to Wu Tong.
Wu Tong glanced at Li Jian indifferently, coughed softly, and said: "Bring me a clean pair of undergarments. I'm going to go for convenience." Baidu "I was a great stickman in the Qin Dynasty" Read the latest chapters for free as soon as possible.
