Chapter 96: A crushing victory
The people noticed that Da Xuan was gone, and Zou Yu naturally noticed it, and for a while, their morale was greatly boosted, and they fought hard, killing a lot one after another.
The most important thing in war is morale, high morale, people are more energetic, full of spirit, of course the combat power is stronger, an army with normal morale in ancient times, three layers of battle damage may be defeated, so many times, the commander generally finds that the morale is low, will choose to trim, just to improve morale.
The people of the Tatar had suffered a lot of casualties, and they all fought with a ferocity and an unconvincing thought, and this fall went directly to the trough. It's like running a marathon, there is no problem, but with that breath in my heart, that belief is gone, and I must fall directly to the ground.
So when I saw that Daxu was gone, I didn't know the life and death of Tudiji, and there was no trace of Wanyan Wu, and there was no trace of a leader, where did I want to continue fighting, I just slapped the horse and left, and began to run away, after all, it was difficult to defeat after fighting for a long time.
On the contrary, the army of Buyeo City, when they saw the enemy fleeing, their morale was even higher, their blood was hot, and they felt that their whole body was full of strength, and suddenly their state reached their peak again, and they began to chase and kill frantically.
"Roar, roar, roar!" With this excitement, I couldn't help but scream loudly, chasing after him to vent the violent factor in my body.
"Kill!" Zou Yu shouted, with excitement in his mood, stepped forward with an arrow, and with a fierce stick, smashed the head of a man with a fierce stick, and the flesh and blood flew around.
The nearby Yan people were already accustomed to seeing Zou Yu's ferocity, and they began to hold their breath and didn't feel it, but now that they were relieved, they were suddenly frightened by him, such a monster, how could they be opponents, for fear that it would be their turn next, their faces changed, and they fled in a hurry.
"Kill!" The shouts of killing sounded, but this time there was no voice from the Tassels, because they basically began to run away, after all, if they can't fight, they will run, this is the routine operation of nomads, this is the experience they have summed up over countless years, when they are attacked by other tribes, they can't run, run to find a bigger tribe, and then come back together to take revenge.
Beat the water dog, no one will give up this opportunity, no need to command, everyone began to chase and kill, Zou Yu did the same, pulled an empty horse, turned over, and began to chase and kill.
After chasing a few hundred meters, the heavy armored cavalry automatically stopped, and they knew that they could not catch up, so they honestly stayed to clean up the battlefield and see if there were any living partners.
Zou Yu and the others chased all the way until Weihuling, and the people of the Yan tribe fled into the mountains, only then did they stop and slowly rush back.
"Who is this guy?" Zou Yu looked at a fat man next to Han Qianxun with his horse lance on his shoulder, and asked curiously.
"I heard that it is the Khan of the Baishan Ya tribe called Tudiji." Han Qianxun swept the snorting all night and said suddenly.
"Hehe, it's still a big fish!" Zou Yu smiled happily.
"It's about to become a dead fish, and when I take the lance, the bleeding will kill him." Han Qianxun smiled coldly.
"It doesn't matter, take it, whether he can survive or not depends on whether his life is big or not." Zou Yu nodded.
He knew that this was what Han Qianxun wanted to ask, and at the same time, he also let himself see if there was anything that needed to be asked, which was also a kind of courtesy, after all, the highest status here was himself, and he would not directly kill such a high-status captive.
"Don't, don't! The general save me, I am willing to lead the people and submit to the general! Tudiji could understand the conversation between the two, and hurriedly shouted loudly.
"Whether you survive or not depends on your fate." Zou Yu was silent for a moment, smiled apologetically, and then walked over and pulled out the horse lance.
"Poof!" A stream of blood rushed out, but fortunately, Tudiji seemed to be lucky, just a strand, and then although it was still bleeding, it didn't shoot, and it shouldn't have hurt the artery.
"Ahh ........." suddenly screamed, his eyes bulged, and then he fainted.
Zou Yu had hemostatic medicine on his body, so he gave it to him, bandaged it with Tudiji's clothes, took out a ginseng that he always had on his body, cut a slice for Tudiji, stuffed it into his mouth, and didn't care about him.
"The general is going to keep him?" Han Qianxun asked.
"Since it is the khan of the Baishan Ya clan, it doesn't hurt to stay, the most important thing is that it is like this bear, it is estimated that he will be put back, and he will not dare to oppose us in the future, if he is killed, another person will come to power, and maybe he will have to avenge him." Zou Yu explained.
"Well, the general's words are reasonable, and he doesn't look like a brave man." Han Qianxun looked at the unconscious Tudi Jidao.
The two walked to the side Zou Yu continued: "I thought of a win-win solution, you can give it a try." ”
“????”
"This time we have suffered a lot of losses, we can completely push it on Goguryeo, the Ya tribe has suffered a big loss on us, it is estimated that they will vent their anger on Goguryeo, and they can make some trouble for Goguryeo, so why not do it." Zou Yu explained with a smile.
"Well, it's really a win-win, Tudi Ji has a life back, and we have less trouble." Han Qianxun agreed.
"No, no, the Tatar clan went to Goguryeo for trouble, let's reduce the pressure This is one of them, this is also to weaken the strength of the two sides, and destroy them in the future, we win twice, this is a win-win situation." Zou Yu shook his head and said seriously.
"Huh!" Han Qianxun couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
But seeing the battlefield, it makes people a little unable to laugh, although this battle was won, it can only be regarded as a miserable victory, originally with heavy cavalry to break the light cavalry, it should be very easy, where do you know that the people of the Yan Dynasty actually played with their lives at the beginning, it was completely a fight at any cost, and those who didn't know thought that they had suddenly collected a lot of heavy gifts from Goguryeo, Zou Yu understood that this was completely because of the folk customs.
The people are well-known for their head iron, their fierce personalities, and they belong to the rough people who have no typical culture, and they are influenced by Goguryeo, and they have gradually begun to increase agriculture in recent decades, as for the Baishan Ya tribe, they are learning from the Sui Dynasty, and as for the Heishui Ya, it is not to say, it is a real barbarism, barbarism, and arrogance.
Fierce and ruthless, this itself is the normal state of many people in the tribe and remote areas, because otherwise, it is difficult to survive, which is particularly obvious in the performance of the Black Water Eagle, which also shows from another aspect that they have no culture, no education, no national cultural traditions, and no wild nature in their bones.
We, the people of the Central Plains, even if we have not read books, will be taught by our parents and elders to be polite, righteous and honest. Only by understanding etiquette can we know right from wrong, have respect and humility, respect for the elderly, and filial piety; Only by knowing shame will not do something inferior to beasts, knowing shame and then courage, knowing shame, can there be progress and improvement.
