After the heavy snowfall, the grass is gradually covered with snow, and it looks very beautiful.

It's just that there is a smell of blood in the air, and a few wild wolves are constantly wandering in the distance, and occasionally there are a few wolf howls.

"Everyone move faster, all the carriages that can be moved up, and those who can't be moved will be set on fire."

Dafei rode on a white steed and constantly commanded the members of the slave catcher team to work.

The forward battalion was only responsible for the attack, and once all the resistance forces of the Tuyuhun tribe were destroyed, they were handed over to Dafei's slave catchers.

This was not only to save the energy of the officers and men of the forward battalion, but also to prevent this army from degenerating into a chaotic dehumanization.

War is cruel, but what happens after the war is perhaps even more brutal.

"I'm going to kill you!"

A half-old child suddenly burst out of the crowd on his knees.

However, he was immediately stopped by another woman in the crowd.

"The strong man spares his life, the child is not sensible, spare his life."

Da Fei looked at the unruly look in the child's eyes, let out a cold snort on his mouth, and the knife fell in his hand, and there was a red blood stain on the snow-white ground.

Begging for a living on the grassland, you must not be soft.

Since I have said it, stop resisting and squat on the ground, and you will be able to live.

As a result, the child had to challenge his own commands.

No matter what the reason, no matter who it is, Dafei will not hesitate to send him to heaven.

Seeing this scene, some women in the crowd hurriedly hugged the children around them tightly, and covered the children's mouths tightly with their palms to avoid misfortune.

These tribes on the steppe have actually seen a lot of all kinds of killings.

Generally speaking, tribal-to-tribal conflicts only kill adult men, and other women and children are treated as trophies like cattle and sheep.

Most of the "loot" has the consciousness of being a trophy.

This is obviously better understood by Dafei than everyone in the forward battalion.

"Tie all these people together one by one, and then divide them into fifty team members to send them back to Liangzhou, but anyone who dares to resist on the road must not be soft."

Dafei looked at the slave catchers who had almost cleaned up the mess, and after giving an order, he took the rest of the people to chase after the forward battalion.

There are at least five or six Tuyuhun tribes around here, and there are still many things to do.

……

Outside Liangzhou City, Li Jing had just arrived with a large army.

"The Forward Battalion has been out of the city for ten days? How can it be so fast? ”

When Li Jing learned about Li Kuan's whereabouts from Niu Jinda's mouth, he was very surprised.

I just set off a few days later than him, why is it about ten days away now?

Could it be that the forward battalion marched all the way?

This Li Kuan seems to be a little too impatient, so if he marches in a hurry at the beginning, his morale will easily collapse later.

Li Jing felt a little more worried in his heart.

"Tell me to go down, rest the whole army for the night, and set off immediately tomorrow."

Originally, the large army was going to rest in Liangzhou for a few days, waiting for the commanders to bring their troops over to meet and discuss the battle plan, but Li Jing felt that he could not wait.

Wait a little longer, maybe the forward battalion will be gone.

In this case, it is not good to go out of the division, and the impact on the army will be too great.

"General, now that it's freezing and snowy, many soldiers in the army have some frostbite on their hands and feet, do you want to rest in Liangzhou for half a month before setting off?"

Mao Laosi looked at Li Jing with a little worry.

"The forward battalion has been set off for ten days, calculate the time, it should be at Niuxindui soon, it is close to the capital of Tuyuhun, Fuqicheng, if you are not careful, you will fall into the encirclement, it will be late, but it will be late."

Li Jing said with a gloomy face, this feeling of being led by the nose is a bit not good.

"General Su can be regarded as a battle-hardened battle, the true biography of the deep general, the forward battalion should not be so aggressive."

"Su Lie is just a deputy general, if His Royal Highness the King of Chu insists on going his own way, what else can he do except obey orders? What a strange thing it is that the general is lucky, in fact, His Royal Highness the King of Chu has always acted in a whimsical and unruly manner, and this situation is the most taboo when the army goes out. ”

Li Jing regretted it somewhat and felt that he should let the forward battalion set off with the large army.

Although the loss of 3,000 people will not affect the overall situation, if the forward battalion is completely annihilated, he, the general manager of the marching road, will have no face and lose the prestige of the Tang Dynasty.

You must know that in this expedition, there are Turkic generals such as stubbornness and mental strength.

……

On the vast white Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a team is marching quickly in the heavy snow.

On the march to fight, it is impossible to be comfortable.

However, although the forward battalion marched in the snow, because of the hot air balloon in the air, the situation within a radius of more than ten miles could be seen clearly, and there was no need to worry about leaking traces, so there was no need to go out day and night, and there was no need to eat cold food every day.

Every time he stayed overnight, Li Kuan would have people prepare hot water and try to let everyone eat a hot meal.

On the grassland, cow, sheep and horse manure is natural fuel, and the snow and the dead grass below are also good fuel, so it is not even impossible to burn the fire.

However, Su Lie has always been very uncomfortable, if it weren't for the smooth sweep of several tribes in succession, he would definitely stand up and discuss with Li Kuan how to march and camp and how to prevent sneak attacks.

After being a soldier for so many years, Su Lie has never seen a general go out on a campaign, and he actually did not arrange someone to be responsible for camping and did not build a camp for overnight.

Is Li Kuan really so stupid?

With a master-level bonus in the art of war, how could he make such a low-level mistake.

The hot air balloon battalion basically does not participate in the war, and takes turns to take the air every day to guard and reconnoitre, even at night, there are four hot air balloons in the air on all sides of the forward battalion at any time, watching the surrounding situation.

In this era, there is no haze, the starry sky at night is very bright, and the ground is snow-white, even in the middle of the night, the visibility is very high.

In addition, there were also specially trained guards around Li Kuan who were distributed several miles away, so Li Kuan was not worried about being attacked by surprise at all.

"Lord Wang, we will be able to reach the Niuxin Pile tomorrow, one of the three tribes of the Tugu Hun Tianzhu is stationed near the Niuxin Pile, this is the first tribe we have encountered more than 10,000."

In the military tent, thick whale oil candles were lit, and Li Kuan, Su Lie, Wang Xuance, Xue Li, Xi Junmai and others were all inside, discussing tomorrow's march route.

"After the Niuxin pile, even if you enter the hinterland of Tuyuhun, the various resistances encountered will definitely be more intense, and it will be difficult to hide the whereabouts of the army. It is better to cut off one of its fingers than to hurt its ten fingers, this time, we will first destroy this Tianzhu tribe and mobilize all the soldiers and horses near Tuyuhun King City. ”

Su Lie: "Isn't the prince going to wait for the arrival of the commander's soldiers and horses?" ”
