Chapter 440

After a death-like silence, a burst of thunder-like explosions erupted in the Han army formation.

Correspondingly, hundreds of Xianbei cavalry looked disbelieving and their morale was low.

Pang Deyao swaggered for a while before returning to the formation.

Only then did Xianbei notice that Pound was just the vanguard of the enemy army, and the real general of the enemy army was the general who held a spear, wore a full body, and wore a red cloak behind his back.

Liu Ye slowly raised the spear in his hand.

"Han army, invincible!"

A thousand cavalrymen of the Han army hit the ground with spears in their hands, and the sound of rattling was endless, like a heavy rain shaking the earth.

"Han army, invincible!"

"Han army, invincible!"

Under the bravado of the Han army, the Xianbei people immediately changed their expressions, and Liu Ye gave the order to attack without hesitation.

"The whole army assaults and kills all the dogs!"

"kill!"

A thousand cavalry of the Han army launched an assault, and thousands of horses lined up in a row, aiming at the Xianbei people with great momentum. The Xianbei centurion was not a fool either. Seeing that the Han army was so numerous and so brave, he immediately ordered to retreat.

"There are many Han soldiers, brothers, don't fight them head-on, retreat!" the centurion raised his arms and shouted.

"Centurion, what about this Han woman?"

The centurion frowned: "No more, the Han people are as numerous as cattle and sheep, just come back and grab them later."

Under the order of the centurion, more than a hundred Xianbei cavalry turned and retreated under the threat of the front of the Han cavalry.

More than a thousand cavalrymen of the Han army stepped forward to pursue, shooting bows and horses non-stop, and some of the more than a hundred Xianbei soldiers fell off their horses. Under the dense rain of arrows from the Han army, many Xianbei cavalry were killed and injured.

"General, all the males who were besieged by the Xianbei were killed, but there is still a female relative." Pang De leaned forward and said in a low voice, "This female is dressed in filial piety, she seems to be a survivor."

Liu Ye nodded. Wei Zhongdao was dead, and Cai Yan was of course a survivor.

"Bring her up, I will have something to ask her." Liu Ye said.

Five hundred iron cavalry spread out, chasing and killing the Xianbei cavalry, and the remaining five hundred people surrounded Liu Ye. After a while, Cai Yan was brought up.

"The widow has seen the general, thank you general for saving his life."

Cai Yan hugged Jiao Weiqin, bowed and gave Liu Ye a curious look.

Originally, Cai Yan thought Liu Ye was a middle-aged man, because his record was really outstanding. Since the pacification of the Yellow Turban Rebellion in Qingzhou, almost every battle has shocked the world. inferior.

But unexpectedly, Liu Ye looked very young. Under the armor wrap, there is a handsome and brave face, the two mustaches on the lips are slightly mature, and above the high bridge of the nose, the two eyes emit a sharp light.

He is very different from Wei Zhongdao.

Liu Ye smiled and said, "You are Mr. Bo Jie's daughter, Cai Wenji?"

Bo Jie is the surname of Cai Yong. Cai Yong is a great Confucian in the Han Dynasty. He is proficient in rhythm, Confucian classics, and calligraphy. And Cai Yan, also known as Cai Wenji, was Cai Yong's daughter.

"The humble name of a widow does not dare to despise the general's ears." Cai Yan spoke softly, behaved decently, and revealed a sense of everyone's demeanor from top to bottom, as if a comfortable breath would involuntarily emanate from his body .

"Miss Cai encountered a catastrophe. Fortunately, our army arrived in time, otherwise the talented woman would be taken away by the Xianbei people." Liu Ye laughed.

"General." Cai Yan said cautiously: "The widow has left the cabinet, the general should not call me Miss."

Liu Ye laughed: "The Wei family was so unkind and unrighteous that they expelled you from the house and sent you back to Mr. Bo Jie's house. Naturally, you are no longer a widow, but you have become Miss Cai again."

"General!" Cai Yan suddenly became excited, his eyes became crystal clear, unexpectedly Liu Ye would fight for him, Cai Yan was naturally moved.

It is natural for Liu Ye to do so. It is reasonable for Wen Ji to return to the Han Dynasty, which is a beautiful story through the ages, making Cai Yan's name transcend time and space, and spread in the word of mouth of every Chinese. It becomes a piece of dust.

"You are escorting Miss Cai back to Luoyang, and there must be no mistakes along the way, do you understand?" Liu Ye said to a group of twenty cavalrymen.

"Thank you, General." Cai Yan thanked him.

"By the way." Liu Ye said with interest, "I don't know how Mr. Bo Jie is doing these days?"

Cai Yan bowed his head and said, "Back when Dong Zhuo came to Beijing to create chaos, he forcibly conscripted his father as an official. Under the persecution of Dong Bandit, his father had to accept the position appointed by Dong Bandit. After Dong Zhuo died, his father was reviled by many people, and he was disheartened. , Now I’m probably hiding at home and writing Han Shu.”

Although Cai Yong was forcibly recruited by Dong Zhuo, Dong Zhuo promoted Cai Yong to three ranks within a few days in order to show his respect for scholar-bureaucrats. After Dong Zhuo was killed, he wept and mourned bitterly. Wang Yun was furious, imprisoned him and prepared to kill him.

Before Cai Yong died, he begged Wang Yun bitterly: It's not that I'm greedy for life and afraid of death, but I just want to write a book to record the history of the Han Dynasty.

Cai Yong originally had the same idea as Sima Qian, but Wang Yun probably held the power and wanted to kill chickens and monkeys, so regardless of others' dissuasion, he insisted on killing Cai Yong.

Cai Yong's head fell to the ground, and the idea of ​​recording history books was naturally empty, because later Li Jue and Guo Si brought chaos to Chang'an and killed Wang Yun, so most of Cai Yong's posthumous works were lost, which has to be said to be a great pity.

Now Cai Yong is naturally not killed, and Dong Zhuo returned to his hometown Luoyang after his death, and closed his door to write a book.

Liu Ye nodded: "It's easy to say, after I go back, I will appoint Mr. Bo Jie as the Taishi Ling, and the court will distribute the salary on time, so I won't embarrass Mr. Bo Jie."

Cai Yan's eyes lit up when he heard the words: "So, the little girl wants to thank the general."

Liu Ye waved his hands and said with a smile: "Haha, it's okay, I also want to know how Mr. Bo Jie will evaluate me in his writing."

Cai Yan said with a smile: "The general Zhongxing is a great man with great martial arts skills. My father must write a special letter to the general."

After Liu Ye sent cavalry to escort Cai Yan back to Luoyang, Xun You, according to Liu Ye's order, appointed Cai Yong as Taishi Ling, who was in charge of Han history works. With Liu Ye's attention, Cai Yong's living conditions have been greatly improved. He no longer has to worry about eating and drinking. All he thinks about is how to write Han history. Naturally, he can't help beautifying Liu Ye a little.

Although Liu Ye only brought a thousand cavalry, he pretended to be a 30,000-strong army with great fanfare, and built a camp of 30,000 people. Zhang Yan's movements suddenly became quiet.
