Crossing over reveals a waste's difficult journey home

The Xiongnu general who fled outside Bucheng regretted his decision very much. If he had known that he would also go to the desert, perhaps the Daxia people would not have chased them.

Now, the Daxia people behind are chasing them relentlessly, and the Bu tribe in front is on high alert and has no intention of helping them at all.

However, at this point he had no choice but to immediately send someone up to communicate with the Bu clan.

"They are King Zuo Xian's men. Why do they want to come to our Bu City?" Bu Hu asked casually, leaning on the gorgeous couch.

"Reporting to the city lord, the generals who led the troops said that the Zuo Xianwang failed to plunder Daxia and was defeated by the Daxia people. They had a hard time escaping from the encirclement."

"Defeated? I remember that Tianlong City sent out 100,000 soldiers this time! How come they were defeated in just a few days? And the defeat was so complete? Did something happen?"

"Reply to the city lord, this..."

"What? Is there anything you can't say?"

"City Lord, those people said that the heavens were not satisfied with the sacrifices for this expedition, nor with the attack on Daxia, so they sent down a divine punishment."

"Curse!"

Hearing these two words, Bu Hu, who had been sitting casually, immediately sat up straight.

The Huns would not talk about "heavenly punishment" casually. Once these two words were mentioned, it meant that something big was going to happen.

Either something happens to me or something happens to others. It's not something that can be easily let go.

"what happened?"

"City Lord, the general outside wants to speak to you in person."

Bu Hu originally wanted to ask the Xiongnu troops outside to leave so as not to affect their business, but now it seems that he has to ask for clarification. He thought about it and asked someone to bring the generals outside.

The general who came to see Bu Hu was one of the people who had heard about divine punishment from the escaped Xiongnu soldiers in Lanba's tent.

He was scared at the time and wanted to leave quickly, but he was not Lanba's confidant, and if he spoke up, he would definitely be killed as a warning to others. However, he was a little cautious.

When the other party asked him to fight against the Da Xia people, he did not go up without saying a word like the others, but kept paying attention to the movements of the Da Xia people around him.

When he saw so many Daxia soldiers coming out of Ding'an City, he began to try his best to gather the soldiers he brought together.

Since he was always paying attention to the situation on the battlefield, he also heard the sound of the flare. The sound was quite loud, and it immediately reminded him of the huge noise and divine punishment that the soldiers had mentioned before.

After that, he no longer hesitated, and led his soldiers to fight and retreat. Fortunately, he retreated quickly, so he did not become one of the people abandoned by Lambar.

But he didn't expect that even if he tried hard to protect himself, he still couldn't escape the fate of being abandoned and became the one who blocked the Daxia army. How could he be willing to accept this?

He knew that the Bu family, who were particularly good at analyzing the pros and cons and were doing business enthusiastically with the Daxia people, were unlikely to care about them, but he had no other choice when it came to making a choice.

The desert was too far away from their tribe, and without food or water, he didn't know if he and his tribesmen could ever return.

Although the Bu family is not a good choice, what if Bu Hu is kind enough to help him?

In order to get Bu Huken to help him, he told him about the divine punishment, hoping that the other party would help him because they were both Huns!

Did Bu Hu help? The answer is no. No matter how much the general begged, he remained motionless and even had the general thrown out of the city.

It's not that Bu Hu is cold-blooded and doesn't care about the feelings of being a fellow Hun. It's mainly because he knows that he can't help the other party this time.

If the heavenly punishment is fake, it means that the people of Daxia have some powerful weapons. Even Lanba’s 100,000 elite soldiers can’t do anything, so what can he do?

It is said that the Bu family has 70,000 troops, but in fact he himself knows best how much this number has been exaggerated.

Don't say that there are only 30,000 troops instead of 70,000. They can still resist Zong Zhengliang's 30,000 troops and save the pursued Huns army. But what if the Daxia people still have something that can make a loud noise?

If the punishment from heaven was real, he would be even less able to help. Heaven said that attacking Daxia was wrong, and he had seen the plight of others, so why would he rush to offend Heaven? It wasn't like he had really lived enough!

Regardless of whether it was true or false, he could not help his own people, but had to quickly send someone to explain things to Zong Zhengliang.

The people of their Bu clan did not plunder Da Xia this time. They hoped that Da Xia would not cause them trouble and would not affect their business in Bu City.

Zong Zhengliang, who had chased to a place not far from Bu City, was quite surprised when he observed the envoy sent by Bu Hu.

If it weren't for the other person's peculiar appearance, just based on his clothes and accent, he would have found it difficult to mistake the other person for a Hun.

He had long known that in order to do business with Daxia, many smart members of the Bu family learned the language of Daxia and dressed like the Daxia people.

But hearing is just hearing, not as shocking as seeing it with one's own eyes. He didn't understand Bu's persistence in doing business. Of course, it didn't matter. It would be much easier to communicate if the other party could speak their language.

The envoy from Bu Hu was very good at speaking. He expressed that their city lord regretted that other Huns attacked the border town of Daxia. It was a pity that their city lord was of low status and could not stop it. He hoped that Daxia would understand and even more so, he hoped that the general would understand.

Moreover, they would not hinder the general from pursuing the deserters, as long as they did not think that the Bu family was in cahoots with the enemy.

In Zong Zhengliang's opinion, he thought that the mayor of Bucheng would hinder them and fight with them. Although they would suffer certain losses, they would have a reason to send troops to Bucheng.

Who knew that as soon as he arrived, the other party directly expressed his innocence, which made him very frustrated. Asong guessed right again!

Since Bu Cheng had revealed his attitude, he could not attack directly, so he had to turn his target to the 7,000 Hun troops.

The Xiongnu generals who were thrown out of Bucheng knew that their previous regrets had come true. The Bu clan refused to help, and the Daxia people were following closely, so they really had to hide in the desert.

He was about to lead his troops to continue running, but he found that both the soldiers and the horses had no strength left.

More than ten days had passed since the war with Daxia broke out until they fled here. Some of the food they carried with them was lost while fleeing, and most of the remaining food was taken away by Lanba, who said that this was to reduce their burden and that they would not be treated unfairly when they returned after stopping the Daxia army.

This really thinks they are stupid!

At this point, the general felt somewhat desperate. He had been abandoned twice by his fellow tribesmen, who were considered one with him, and was chased by the Daxia army. Now he didn't even have the strength to run. What should he do?

As he watched the Daxia army approaching, his inner uneasiness and fear gradually turned into unwillingness.
