Chapter 76: It's really easy to bully
This is not a grassland, but a relatively mountainous area.
The Rong tribe was stationed on the edge of a stream, and set up tents scattered on the ground, leaving an area for the concentration of livestock.
It is currently summer, and the ground is overgrown with a variety of plants, especially weeds.
The plants grow wildly and are incredibly dense, with some of the grass reaching heights of more than two meters.
The horses pulling the cart trampled on all kinds of plants, and then rolled straight lines from the frame.
When you run, the grass becomes a sharp weapon that cuts your skin.
The horses were repeatedly cut by the grass, and the sweat on their bodies was mixed with blood, and the horses became "sweaty and bloody BMWs" at this moment.
They were neighing and running faster and faster.
In front of them were chariots galloping, and in the back were soldiers on foot following on their legs, causing great movement.
Inside the Rong tribe, they heard the movement and looked around to see where the sound came from.
Because the terrain here is not absolutely flat, and then there are trees, and the height of the plants also blocks the view, so I didn't notice anything at the first time.
But they are not stupid.
If it can cause such a big movement, it must be a large number of people.
The tribes soon erupted in shouts, calling each other to flee or prepare to defend the camp.
They were all dressed in a mask made of animal skins or fur.
Everyone is cloaked, and the guys in their hands rarely see metal, either wooden sticks, wooden forks, or bone sticks, and most of them hold bows and arrows (arrows are bones), which looks like they are very primitive people.
Lü Wu's first chariot was at the front of his attack queue, and he felt that the horse pulling the cart was running a little restlessly.
The chariot was very fast, and it was quite bumpy to stand on the cart, and you had to pull the edge of the chariot to stand firmly.
He had asked Mite.
Aogi's explanation was that the grass had cut the horses and was already trying to slow down.
Because they were close enough, they were able to see the layout of the camp more clearly.
The Rong tribe cleared the periphery of vegetation, created a vacuum area of about thirty or forty meters, and erected a fence wall.
In fact, fencing is now a basic practice for people to prevent animals and wild animals from entering their living quarters without hindrance.
There is no fence in the camp, and there is no way to reject the horses, which means that there is no defensive obstacle arrangement.
The Rong people have seen who is coming.
They saw the chariot and the soldiers following it closely, and the men who had intended to guard the camp blew up their nests and fled.
If they were both Rong or Di people, and the rest of the Hu people came to commit it, they wouldn't do it.
encountered the Central Plains people who were too far ahead of them in terms of social system and technological level, and the lessons of the past left them with enough examples, and they knew that they would never be able to beat them.
Lü Wu took the lead in killing it, and found that only scattered arrows were fired, and there was no large-scale resistance at all.
At present, he is holding Changge, but he has only a few opportunities to meet a person, and he doesn't have many opportunities to be powerful.
One chariot after another raged through the camp, waiting for the infantry behind to come in, easily capturing the entire camp.
In the era when communication was all about roaring and ordering to break his leg, Lu Wu tried his best to get new orders according to the immediate situation.
The chariots began to chase the fleeing Rong people, mainly to drive them towards their own infantry.
The infantry, who received the new order, spread out as much as they could, urging or forcing the Rong people they encountered to surrender.
Further behind, the slower ranks of auxiliaries, as they advanced, either killed or captured the fleeing Rong people, or forced them to run in the direction of the camp.
The whole operation took nearly an hour and a half, and when the east of the sky became cloudy and red, it was all over.
Lü Wu, Han Wuji, and Zhao Wu, under the protection of many warriors, sat in the tent of the leader of this tribe.
To be honest, it didn't smell good, but it was a custom to occupy a tribe and enter their leader's tent.
Han Wuji looked quite satisfied, and said, "Didn't do your best, have you won?" ”
Zhao Wu looked very excited, and his little face was a little red.
Qi Wen said: "Han Meng's command is moderate, and victory is easy. ”
Lu Wu said, "Stay here tonight." ”
The real commander of this attack was Lu Wu, but he was not the commander of this team.
Han Wuji just hung up the title of commander, but he was able to accept Qi Wen's compliments happily.
It's not about stealing the fruits of victory.
In fact, the Spring and Autumn Period is talking about seeking his position in his position.
A nobleman with a bit of family background, who doesn't have a few retainers?
Aristocracy can be a signboard, and it is enough to have a capable retainer.
But the retainers only exercise power on their behalf, and the gains and losses are considered nobles.
Knowing people and making good use of them is also an ability to be a leader.
Therefore, whoever is in charge, even if he does nothing, accepts the glory when he wins, and bears the responsibility for defeat if he loses.
Lu Wu, who is more and more like a Spring and Autumn person, will not feel resentful because of Qi Wen's compliment to Han Wuji, and he will not even have any emotional fluctuations.
Han Wuji looked at Lu Wu with affectionate eyes, and echoed: "Wu is a 'captain', just listen to it." ”
This is a noble child with a forced number, and he didn't open his mouth to beep blindly if he didn't understand.
When he decided to calculate the harvest, he gave his share to Lu Wu.
I laughed at the good reputation.
The practical benefits you come to reap.
It was just perfect!
Lu Wu has a lot to do.
Arrange the stationing and vigilance of soldiers and auxiliaries.
Hear a debriefing on casualties.
They captured a tribe of Rong people, and their casualties were negligible.
None of them died, but nearly 100 were injured.
Regarding this, Han Wuji privately patted Lu Wuyi's ass.
Together with Qi Wen, he used this raid to teach Zhao Wu earnestly.
Actually, the people who fought on their side were samurai.
More than 1,000 samurai launched a surprise attack on a tribe of Rong people with an effective combat strength of less than 300, dealing with a group of panicked "primitives" whose weapons were inadequate, and it was abnormal if the casualties were large.
Organized bullying is unorganized, and victory is inevitable.
If the two sides were to fight in a position, it would be impossible to have zero deaths.
However, in the previous example, the Jin army sent troops to fight with the Hu people, and the battle losses of both sides were relatively exaggerated.
Lu Wu still needs to do more.
Including statistics on what has been gained from this operation.
When he summed up the results, he was a little surprised.
According to the impression, shouldn't the Hu people all raise horses and herd sheep?
This Rong tribe did not have many horses and sheep, and the largest number of cattle was there.
They took prisoners of men, women, and children, totaling seven hundred and twenty-two, including the tribal chief's family; Two hundred and thirty-seven horses were captured, and seventy-seven were immediately usable; The total number of sheep is more than 800; There were more than 2,000 cattle.
The rest are like all kinds of leather, which can hold more than 30 cars, of which cowhide is the most.
When Lu Wu was counting the loot, he was surprised to find that there were still several tents full of wool.
In other words, have the Rong people already made use of wool?
Otherwise, what are you hoarding for?
This Rong tribe also has a batch of plant-based grains, with millet being the most abundant.
And the weapons of the Rong people?
He looked at the sticks, the forks, and the bone sticks, and the largest number of bows of all kinds, with and without arrows.
Some sticks are simply tied with sharp stones or bones, and they become a spear that is not a spear.
More just sharpen the sticks.
Sticks are blunt instruments.
To tell the truth, against the Jin warriors who can at least wear wooden armor, the lethality of wooden sticks and bone sticks will be stronger.
The first operation was almost perfect, which not only made the people involved in the operation smile, but also injected a dose of strength into Lu Wu.
It's just that he knows one thing very well, if he doesn't take advantage of the surprise attack, it won't go so smoothly.
Now it's time to think about how they can perpetuate this suddenness.
