Chapter 856 817: Encounter with a Famous General
When Zhao Rong saw a group of Xiongnu charging over on their tall horses,
he immediately warned them, saying:
"You Xiongnu, you'd better get off your horses and let's be friends...
Otherwise, I won't be polite..."
And when Huo Qubing lying on the ground saw the menacing group of Xiongnu coming at them,
he hurriedly mustered his last ounce of strength and said to the beauties, Zhao Rong, and his assistant beside him:
"We are people of the Han Dynasty. You must run quickly. These Xiongnu are extremely cruel,
they are merciless barbarians..."
Just then, Miss Lili stood up and pointed at the Xiongnu in front, saying:
"You ignorant Xiongnu, if you don't want to die, then scram now,
otherwise, my big brother will serve you with a Gatling heavy machine gun..."
Yu Lan, the beauty, also warned the Xiongnu in front, saying:
"I warn you, you better leave quickly, otherwise I, Yu Lan, will use the Thompson submachine gun soon to feed you bullets..."
Xuelian, the beauty, did a kip-up, stood up, and took an AK47 from her bag, after loading it, she pointed it at the group of charging Xiongnu on horses, saying:
"You barbarians, all day long, you only know fighting and killing,
don't you know that peace is the most important thing in this world?"
Even the assistant took out a Czech-made ZB machine gun from his bag,
he lay on the ground, aimed at the Xiongnu on horses holding knives and wolf fang clubs, saying:
"Since you barbarians want to die, then come at us..."
Although Zhao Rong and his group of five had already warned this group of savage Xiongnu...
However, these Xiongnu didn't take it seriously and charged, saying:
"We Xiongnu are the masters of this grassland, we kill whoever we want,
no one can stop us..."
When Zhao Rong saw that this group of Xiongnu was hopeless,
he immediately took out the Gatling heavy machine gun from the Magic Ring on his finger, placed it on the ground, aimed at the Xiongnu in front, and said:
"Since you want to die, I'll send you to the Western Heaven..."
Saying this, Zhao Rong pulled the trigger of the Gatling heavy machine gun.
When the beauties beside saw Zhao Rong holding the Gatling heavy machine gun and began crazily firing at the group of Xiongnu,
they didn't remain idle, they all took out various weapons they carried and joined Zhao Rong's team.
In less than 30 seconds, Zhao Rong effortlessly wiped out the barbarian Xiongnu in front of him.
And when Huo Qubing lying on the ground saw the fighting prowess of Zhao Rong and the group of five,
he couldn't believe it, saying:
"Brothers and sisters, where exactly do you come from?
Your combat power is unbelievably strong, for the Xiongnu, you are simply their nemesis..."
While Zhao Rong helped Huo Qubing up, he asked:
"Huo Qubing, I know you,
when I was young, I learned about your great achievements in history books,
I know you are an incredibly formidable person..."
Listening to Zhao Rong's praise, Huo Qubing sighed deeply, very painfully, saying:
"What achievement? In this Xiongnu hunt, I brought tens of thousands of Han soldiers to this vast grassland to annihilate the Xiongnu...
But after we entered the grassland, we were ambushed by the Xiongnu,
when we were surrounded, we fought desperately and broke through...
But now, my soldiers have all died in battle,
only I have successfully broken through..."
Listening to Huo Qubing's words, Zhao Rong was surprised,
he remembered what he learned in history books, saying:
"No, Huo Qubing, I remember seeing in history books that you led the Han army into Xiongnu territory not only capturing the Xiongnu Right Sage King but also completely defeating the Xiongnu..."
Miss Lili stepped forward, she spoke to Huo Qubing in front, saying:
"Huo Qubing, I've read about your accomplishments in history books,
I know you are an outstanding military strategist, skilled in riding and archery, using flexible tactics, valuing strategy, defying ancient methods, brave and decisive, adept at long-distance raids, fast assaults, and large maneuvers..."
Yu Lan, the beauty, stepped forward admiringly looking at the youthful hero Huo Qubing in front, saying:
"Heroic youth, you are my idol,
I've read in history textbooks about your great achievements,
at seventeen, during your first battle, you led eight hundred brave cavalry deep into enemy territory for hundreds of miles, scattering the Xiongnu soldiers.
In the two battles of Hexi, you greatly defeated the Xiongnu, captured the ceremonial golden figures, and took Qilian Mountain.
In the Battle of Mobei, you sealed Langjuxu, returning with a great victory..."
Xuelian, the beauty, stepped forward, looking Huo Qubing up and down, feeling he was extremely handsome, saying:
"Huo Qubing, I know you lived from 140 BC to 117 BC,
you are from southwestern Linfen, Shanxi, a famous general of the Western Han, an outstanding military strategist,
you held the rank of Grand General Piao Ji and were titled Champion Marquis..."
Just as the three beauties were praising Huo Qubing...
The assistant suddenly stepped forward, he remembered watching a TV series about Huo Qubing,
although Huo Qubing was young and capable in battle,
he unfortunately died young, passing away at the age of 24,
thus, the assistant looked regretfully at Huo Qubing, who was critically ill and on the verge of death, saying:
"Huo Qubing, although you are a very famous Great General,
your lifespan is very short,
I remember seeing in history books that you lived only 24 years..."
When Huo Qubing heard the assistant's words, he immediately rolled his eyes, collapsed on the ground painfully, saying:
"No way, I'm exactly 24 years old by reckoning my age this year,
am I going to lose my life this year?"
When the assistant saw Huo Qubing collapse on the ground,
he immediately took out his phone, opened Baidu, searched for the cause of Huo Qubing's death, saying:
"Huo Qubing, regarding your death, the Records of the Historian only recorded one word, deceased...
As for how you died, it was not clearly documented in history books,
and it's an unsolved mystery..."
At this point, Miss Lili stepped forward, looking at the information on the phone, saying:
"I've checked the information, there are two theories,
the first theory believes: Huo Qubing died from illness naturally,
the cause of death was contracting a plague during battle...
The second theory believes:
that Emperor Wu of Han had Huo Qubing removed to maintain royal power stability and suppress Wei Qing family's strong influence in court..."
Before Miss Lili could finish her words, Huo Qubing immediately looked up at the sky and sighed heavily, saying:
"Looks like you five are indeed from the future who traveled back to our Han Dynasty...
Because I indeed contracted some plague during battle...
And as for what type of plague, even I can't figure out,
Just feel cold all over, drowsy, powerless...
Moreover, there's a sense of impending death..."
Upon saying this, Huo Qubing fainted once again.
When the three beauties saw Huo Qubing faint, they immediately urged Zhao Rong in front, saying:
"Brother Zhao Rong, no matter what illness Huo Qubing has, please save him quickly,
after all, he is a significant historical figure, a legendary general..."
Miss Lili reminded Zhao Rong, saying:
"Brother Zhao Rong, if Huo Qubing dies, then history is going to change..."
