"Spring is blooming, all things are recovering, and I am also mindful of the virtue of God's good life. Let him stay in the woods for the night, and if he is safe and sound at noon morrow, let him go back to their chieftain. ”

Li Peiting's words were unusually gentle, like a warm spring breeze, but after the translation of the general affairs, everyone present was terrified.

You send a man with a wound and a wound smeared with sugar water and honey to the forest and tie it up overnight, and the mosquitoes that like to lick sweets don't immediately spread over his body? The black bear that has just woken up from hibernation has been hungry for a winter, and now there is such a dessert in front of him, why not feast on it?

In this way, are you embarrassed to say that you have the virtue of a good life?

After nightfall, the Sauron soldiers happily drank wine and ate meat to celebrate their achievements, and dozens of captured carpenters and blacksmiths also got a ration and quickly repaired the saddles, shoes and other things for the Sauron soldiers, but in the distant woods, a high and low scream always reminded these captured Rakshasas of what fate awaited them in front of them.

In the big tent, Bomu Bogol and others accompanied Li Peiting and others to enjoy a sumptuous celebration banquet like stars holding the moon.

"My lord, we have won the first battle, where should we go next?"

As the vanguard, Dorsey lost more than 20 soldiers in this battle, but the results and captures were also extremely rich, and more than 40 Cossacks were killed, compared with the past, such a battle loss ratio is simply negligible.

"Didn't that Rakshasa Devil Leader say that there are a lot of Rakshasa castles along the Aldan River? Let's just sweep through them one by one! What is Fort Amkinsk on the Amga River, Fort Nunsk on the Aldan River, Fort Olekminsk on the west bank of the upper reaches of the Lena River, these places are the outer fortresses of the city of Yakutsk that we are going to fight. Just take them down one by one, otherwise, you won't be able to live hunting on this land! ”

When it was not yet dark, Li Peiting endured the hot pain of his legs being grinded, and led a group of people to gallop on this land, looking at the vast land, those guards from the middle of Fujian and Guangdong praised it, they had never seen such a vast and magnificent land, jumped off the horse, and pinched up a piece of soil. Pinch it gently with your hand. The fertile land immediately showed its true colors.

"What a fat land!"

In the knee-deep grass, between the streams, from time to time, fish jumped out of the water to stretch their bodies that had been suffocated for a winter. The splash of water startled the roe deer and wild deer who drank by the stream. I ran a long way before I dared to stop and look back.

This land has been rarely visited since ancient times. It also attracted the attention of Bomu Bogol and others. If this place becomes the hunting ground of your own tribe, how much will you increase your prey in a year?!

And how to firmly hold this land and completely turn it into a hunting ground for your own tribe. Become a top priority in the minds of these leaders.

"Well said! If you don't drive the Rakshasa away, cut them all down, and you won't be able to hunt in peace! ”

Picking up the huge bronze wine bowl, the leaders took a few sips of their strong burnt knives, and under the leadership of Bomu Bogol, turned the conversation to what to do with the captives and the booty.

In this battle, the expedition of more than 400 Rakshasa people was completely annihilated, in addition to killing more than 300 heads, there were still hundreds of horses and reindeer, nearly 1,000 weapons of various kinds, and more than 40 Rakshasa leather nitrate guns.

These things are similar to garbage in the eyes of Li Peiting and others, but in the eyes of these Saurons, they are also good things that cannot be sought. Especially those big axes, which are good things for both hunting and living, can hunt wild beasts and chop wood and cut wood.

Looking at these more than 200 snow-bright and heavy axes, several big and small people were salivating, not to mention those horses and reindeer, as well as all kinds of daily necessities. In the eyes of these Saurons, there was little that could not be exploited. Some of the tribal warriors had already swept away the belongings of the slain Rakshasas, from clothes to flints, scythes, shoes, hats, belts, daggers, and capitals.

In the past, if the various tribes fought together, as long as Bomu Bogol, Ordi, and Korpa discussed with each other, and the number of warriors dispatched was roughly distributed according to the size of the tribe. But today is different.

They knew very well that without the support of Li Peiting's weapons and armor, and without his 200 dead soldiers as the backbone of the battle, their more than 2,000 people would at most use arrows made of wooden spears and wolf teeth to fight these Rakshasas and then flee in a hurry.

"You're tempted by this little thing?! Is it still worthy of being a hero like a tiger and a black bear in the mountains and forests? Li Peiting put down the wine bowl in his hand suddenly, and the wine in the bowl splashed everywhere.

"The captives confessed, and hundreds of miles to the north, there were their winter camps. There's more, weapons, women, clothes, horses, and after the winter camp is not far west of their walled city, and there's even more good stuff in it! Aren't you going to rob it? Take the walled fort of Nunske, and the entire area around the Ardan River will become our hunting grounds. ”

Several leaders were aroused by Li Peiting's words, stood up, stabbed up, tore open the front of their clothes, revealing their chests covered with black hair, and kept shouting in their mouths, causing the Sauron soldiers who were cheering and drinking outside the tent to echo one after another, and the sound came several miles away.

Under the overnight rush of captured carpenters and blacksmiths, dozens of crudely workmanlike climbing plows were built, and the men who looked at the bark on them that had not yet been cleaned were amazed. But the victory was strong, a large amount of food and supplies were piled on it, a few reindeer and horses were pulled, and the large group of men and horses crossed the remaining veins of the Outer Khing'an Mountains and came all the way north.

In the ranks, warriors selected from several tribes, clad in cotton and chain mail, and carrying the great axes of the Rakshasas on their shoulders, walked alongside the dead Sauron soldiers, who would serve as the vanguard and backbone of the enemy's attack.

Under the near-frenzied onslaught of the Saurons, who were desperate to trade the heads of the Rakshasas for what they saw as items that could be exchanged for women and status in the tribe, the dozens of Cossacks who remained in the winter camp were cut to the ground in the blink of an eye.

Look at the supplies in the camp that dazzle the Saurons. Li Peiting added another handful of firewood, "This is just a camp, and there are more goods in their castle." ”

The Sauron soldiers, who had just snatched more than a dozen Sauron tribesmen's women, became more and more obedient to Li Peiting's words.

"Grab food, grab hunting grounds, grab women!"

I don't know who shouted this slogan in the queue, and then it became a chorus of everyone.

In a furious and brutal roar, dozens of Sauron soldiers rushed to the stove, each snatching a burning firewood and scattering in all directions, setting fire to the Rakshasa winter camp.

"I can't believe that this group of guys still understands this? In order to boost morale, these unimportant goods were burned? ”

Lin Wenbing, who had just arrived to escort grain and grass for Li Peiting, saw this scene. I can't help but be amazed. It can't be seen that this group of savages knows quite a trade-off, and such a killing decision is simply a shame for the mainland officials and soldiers.

After dealing with the camp. The brigade continued westward towards the Aldan River.

Except for a few more Sauron women in the ranks. Dozens more Rakshasa captives. Most of these people were blacksmiths, carpenters, tanners, merchants, and the like, and now they could only work as coolies, pushing heavy wagons forward.

Li Peiting ordered in addition to craftsmen and translators. Five of the Cossacks were selected to look more pleasing to the eye, and the rest of the captives were all beheaded with giant axes, and the whole army was commanded. Such a barbaric and rude behavior, if Li Shouhan saw it, he would definitely reprimand him a few words, but in front of these Sauron soldiers, it was the most effective way to boost morale.

These Sauron soldiers, in the Qing army, from the beginning of the rebellion of Nurhachi father and son, were an important source of combat effectiveness in the army. After the Qing army entered the customs, the Eight Banners quickly became corrupt, and they had to replace the status of the Eight Banners with the Green Battalion. However, the so-called sacrificial Ula soldiers, Sauron cavalry, and Heilongjiang horse team, even in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom period, were also the trump cards in the Manchu descendant troops.

And Hu Shuai Zhang Zuolin, who has dominated the Northeast for many years, and his good brother and old partner Wu Junsheng, the Heilongjiang overseer known as Wu Da Tongue, have a huge cavalry team under his command, and they have made great achievements in helping Hu Shuai quell Guo Songling's rebellion and entering the customs several times to participate in the warlord melee.

Looking at the huge cavalry team in the distance, Li Peiting suddenly felt that he should get some horses from Tamna Island to raise them here? Maybe this will be another source of war horses for us?

He was immediately amused by his own ridiculous thoughts. Now there are enemies on both sides, the Rakshasas in the west and north, and the Jiannu in the south are stronger than these Saurons, and they breed war horses here? What is that not a capital enemy?

Looking at the smiling faces of those Sauron soldiers riding fierce horses on horseback, he couldn't help but think of what his uncles had said about the grand scene when there were 8,000 iron riders in Ning Yuanbo's mansion. Among those families, I think there are these grandfathers of the Saurons on bare horses, right?

Just as Li Peiting was thinking all the way, the brigade had already rushed to the bank of the Aldan River.

This river flowing from south to north, Li Peiting has already looked at him countless times on the map, and today when he saw the real river, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion.

This navigable river, which is mostly navigable, provided convenience for the life of Sauron's soldiers, and from time to time on the thawed river, waterfowl flew low to catch fish and shrimp in the water.

Davaria and the others kept shouting for orders, and Sauron's soldiers dismounted, cut down trees everywhere, and set up their camps. The captured craftsmen, under the supervision of the Long Sheng men, began to build wooden rafts and prepare them for transporting heavy grain.

With a few exclamations of joy, two Sauron soldiers rushed to the Ordi head from the water's edge with birch bark buckets in their hands, holding an object in their hands, and only grinning and smirking.

It was a piece of gold the size of a baby's fist, glittering seductively in the sunlight.

"Gold is also produced here!?"

The news immediately spread throughout the camp, causing everyone to rejoice. A love for gold is a common trait of all human beings.

Not only the people of Sauron like it, but Li Peiting likes it, and the people of the Rakshasa in Fort Nunske, who are a few days away, like it very much. If they hadn't chased all the way through these yellow, white-flowered metals, and the finest furs that could be exchanged for them, why would they have crossed the Ural Mountains into this desolate Siberian region?

Just set up camp. There was a sentinel to report, and about dozens of miles away, seven or eight Rakshasa people appeared.

This news immediately made everyone excited, and the opportunity to make a fortune is in front of us again!

Everyone turned their attention to Li Peiting.

To be honest, these Rakshasas were not in Li Peiting's eyes at all, but the distance to Nunsk Fort was so close to the Sauron Fortress that the fortress was described as similar to the Golden City Soup Pond among the few Saurons who came to join him on the road. couldn't help but make Li Peiting more cautious.

At present, although the equipment of these Sauron soldiers has been greatly improved, it can be said that they have crossed the millennium in one step. But the battle is still a blank slate. In the field, they also rushed up in chaos. There is no tactics and no command.

If you come with artillery, or if you use even two battalions of regular troops, you won't be afraid of Fort Nunske, but now that the main force is these Sauron soldiers who only know how to fight to the death, you have to think of ways to avoid attacking fortifications.

"Pick some warriors out of the camp. For those who don't have good knives and guns in their hands. ”

I thought about it for a while. Li Peiting came up with such an unbelievable plan.

"Let these people go to war with the Rakshasas. Remember. You have to have at least two Rakshasas escaped before you can kill the rest of the people, you know? Then build a small camp near the battlefield. ”

I don't understand why I did it, but after a few battles. The people of Sauron have begun to be very superstitious about the Han official in front of them. The warriors were madly superstitious about his words, and the chiefs were afraid of the unpleasant threat to end the trade forever.

One hundred and ten newly voted Daur people excitedly set off to fight these Rakshasas, they have been promised, and when they return from completing the mission, everyone will have good swords and guns, and the captured Rakshasa items will be divided among them. If you die in battle, you will also have a set of armor, knives and guns that can be used by your family, and you will have ten catties of white salt like snowflakes as a pension.

"Our people have approached those Rakshasas. The Rakshasas were robbing the Daur in several camps by the river. ”

"Our men have already fought with the Rakshasas, who killed several of our brothers with their firearms, and others wounded two Rakshasas with their wolf's tooth arrows."

"The brothers fought with the Rakshasas, and a dozen people besieged a Rakshasa devil, and the two injured Rakshasas took advantage of the chaos to escape. I should have gone back to report the news! ”

One by one, the military information was sent back to the camp by Li Peiting's guards.

"Good! The leader of the ranks, after beating the wolf, the she-wolf will come to take revenge, right? ”

"This is for sure!"

"No matter how vicious the wolf den is, there are not so many wolves in it, will it be easy to attack it?"

"yes!"

Bomu Bogol had a brilliant mind and immediately figured out what the key was to it.

"When the wolves leave the wolf's den, the hunter is not afraid of them! Now hunters have good weapons and bows and arrows, which are more than enough to deal with those wild wolves! ”

"After beating the wild wolves on the grassland, their wolf den is not guarded by so many wolves, so they can naturally be blown down in one breath!"

All of them are carried out step by step in Li Peiting's design.

The Sauron soldiers, who served as death squads, paid the price of nearly twenty dead, beheaded five Rakshasas, captured one, and two escaped wounded.

The prisoners were interrogated overnight and learned that the so-called fort of Nunsk, which was very strong in the mouth of Sauron, was far less fortified than that of Yongning Temple. It's just a simple ramming of the soil and a sparse layer of wooden grating behind the mound. Equipped with a prospective building and several small batteries, it has two two-pounder guns. In this castle, there are only a few dozen Rakshasas.

Such an outfit is naturally an earth-shattering weapon in front of those Saurons who have almost no metal weapons in their hands. But now, well!

Two days later, the sentinels who had gone out of the outpost reported that dozens of people were coming in the direction of Fort Nunske, including a dozen Rakshasas and the rest were Saurons.

"Brothers, the big piece of meat is already in the pot, just waiting for you to reach out and grab it."

Before the battle, Li Peiting described the prospects of the battle in a language that these leaders could understand.

Then, it was to start arranging, which person was facing the enemy head-on, which person was outflanked from the left flank, which person detoured from the right flank, cutting off the retreat of the Rakshasas, and which person fled back to Nunsk Fort with a prisoner pretending to be a defeated soldier to defraud the city gate, and arranged them one by one, in a trance, Li Peiting felt that his ancestor Cheng Lianggong's ten great victories were probably fought like this.

Early the next morning, in the still smoke-filled Fort of Nunske, the Sauronians were ecstatic to count the spoils. After a winter of collecting so-called taxes in kind from the nearby Daur tribes, or simply robbing the villages, this fortress has accumulated tens of thousands of fine sable skins and fox skins, and the raw gold is as many as tens of thousands of taels, and the Dongzhu is also up to hundreds.

After uprooting the fort of Nunsk and renaming it the fort of the Aldan River, more than a dozen small tribes within hundreds of miles nearby came to defect, and for a time there were nearly a thousand more people under their men. The warriors were almost all armed with captured Jiannu and Rakshasa weapons, and the worst ones were armed with the Rakshasa axes.

Led by Li Peiting's guards and those Sauron's dead soldiers, the tactical level and coordination of these Sauron soldiers bloomed overnight like wildflowers in the wasteland in spring. Bomu Bogol also began to organize his own people, assigning leaders at all levels.

Began to evolve from tribal armies to armies. (To be continued......)
