Chapter 151: The Beginning of the Dawn

In the basin where Zhu Wenze is located, the temperature is obviously higher than outside.

After the leader of the tribe entered the basin, he felt that his body was much warmer, and his eyes suddenly showed greed.

With such a large lake and abundant water and grass for a large herd of cattle and sheep growing even in the cold winter, it is definitely the most ideal residence for the people who mainly live in the herds.

He wanted to occupy this place very much, but unfortunately he also knew that it was okay for him and others to plunder, if he dared to entrench this place for a long time, the Zhao people would definitely not give up.

"Oooo

The warriors of the Schurtle tribe brandished their weapons and rode towards the herd of cattle and sheep.

The herdsmen, who were leisurely grazing, also found the Huns roaring over, and they were immediately frightened and hurriedly sounded the horn.

"Stomp, stomp!"

Such a huge herd is not without any guards, and there are five hundred Zhao cavalry stationed not far away.

When they heard the sound of the trumpet, they did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and rode their horses.

"There is actually a soldier of Zhao Guo!"

Seeing this, the leader of the scarlet had a slightly solemn look on his face.

"Leave those sheep alone, follow me to defeat this Zhao army!"

The leader of the Zodiac shouted loudly, turned his horse's head and headed towards the five hundred cavalry of the Zhao Kingdom, and the rest of the Celestial Warriors also had a very tacit understanding, whistling and following closely behind.

For them, the cattle and sheep all over the mountains not only represent unparalleled wealth, but also rely on the survival of the entire tribe.

In any case, they will not give up these loot easily.

Mo said that there were only 500 cavalry on the opposite side, and the number was not comparable to the warriors of the Zodiac tribe, even if there were 2,000 people on the other side, for the sake of these countless cattle and sheep, the warriors of the Puppet tribe would dare to fight.

"Kill!"

The cavalry on both sides galloped, getting closer and closer, and the warriors of the Tyrant had a hideous smile on their faces.

"Baaa

"Moo!"

During the galloping of the horses, the nearby cattle and sheep were all frightened and fled into the distance with a roar.

The soldiers on both sides, but they didn't care about the fleeing cattle and sheep, and slammed into each other.

"Poof!"

After piercing the opponent's body, he pulled out the spear and continued to charge forward.

At the same time, more than 1,000 warriors also burst out with unprecedented combat effectiveness.

They were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, full of killing intent and fighting spirit, and with just one charge, they defeated the five hundred cavalry of the Zhao State.

"Retreat, retreat, retreat!"

The Zhao generals, who commanded the 500 cavalry, saw that their formation had been dispersed, and many soldiers were injured and fell from their horses, so they were immediately shocked and shouted loudly at the remaining Zhao cavalry.

In this way, after losing dozens of people, the five hundred cavalry of the Zhao State fled in a hurry in the face of the fierce and abnormal warriors.

"Kill!"

Many red-eyed scarlet wanted to go after the fleeing Zhao cavalry, but they were stopped by the leader of the scarlet.

"Don't worry about the cowards who have escaped, go and rob the shepherds, cattle and sheep!"

"In addition, send fifty people to scatter around to reconnoitre, in case there is a Zhao army to kill you!"

Touman experienced war for the first time, even if the enemy had retreated, his body was still tense, and his right hand holding the bone knife was already soaked with sweat.

"You, go to the south to reconnoitre, and see the cavalry of Zhao State to warn in time!"

Just when Touman was in a trance, the centurion suddenly pointed at him and commanded sternly.

Tou Man was shocked, and he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, so he immediately followed the rest of the chosen people and went south to reconnoitre.

Before leaving, Touman turned his head to look at the cattle and sheep all over the mountains, and his eyes flashed with worry.

"There are so many cattle and sheep here, the Zhao people will never sit idly by and watch the cattle and sheep being snatched away by us, if the leader drives the shepherds and the cattle and sheep return to the outside of the Saiwai, the speed will inevitably be slowed down."

"If Zhao Guo's chasing troops arrive, I'm afraid we will be in danger!"

Touman has been different from ordinary people since he was a child, not only is he agile, but also good at using his brain, and he is a famous ghost spirit in the tribe.

Compared to the euphoria of the rest of the tribesmen, Touman has a long-term vision.

Changing places, if Touman is the general of Zhao State in Yanmen County, it is absolutely impossible to sit back and watch so many cattle and sheep being plundered by the Huns.

"Stomp, stomp."

Touman followed behind the rest of the scouts, looking at the spring scenery in the basin canyon, the worries in his heart gradually dissipated, and his eyes were full of longing.

"Such a fertile pasture is really rare in my life."

"If I had such a pasture, I wouldn't have to chase water and grass all day long, and I wouldn't have to be afraid of the cold winter."

Touman has never seen this kind of high-quality, fertile pasture since he was a child.

However, those pastures did not belong to the Sui tribe, but the territory of King Zuo Xian in the east, and Tou Man only followed his father to meet King Zuo Xian when he saw such a fertile grassland.

From that moment on, something was sprouting in Touman's heart.

The horses kept running south, passing through the entire Zhuwenze, and finally came to the southernmost part of the canyon basin.

Touman raised his eyes and saw that the exit of the southern part of the canyon was a very narrow passage, which only allowed two people to pass side by side, and if they were on a war horse, neither horse could walk side by side.

When Touman saw this, there was a bright light in his eyes.

"If you send troops to garrison here and cut down trees to block the entrance, even if Zhao sends more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, it may not be easy to break in."

The more Touman thought about it, the more excited he felt.

At first, he was still a little worried, with more than a thousand warriors of the Yu tribe, it was impossible to bring so many cattle, sheep, and captives to the outside of the Saiwai.

But after seeing the entrance to this canyon, Touman had a different mind.

"You patrol here first, I have something important to report to the chief."

Touman suddenly grabbed the reins, said to his companions, and then turned the horse's head directly and returned the same way.

The rest of the scouts didn't say much, though they were a little strange.

If it is changed to Qin State and Zhao State, if there are scouts who dare to leave their posts without permission, they will definitely be dealt with by military law.

For the tribesmen on the steppe, there are no military orders from the Central Plains, and discipline is very lax in many cases.

Touman rode back and found the leader standing on a high place, directing the tribal warriors to drive away the shepherds.

Taking a deep breath, Touman forcibly suppressed the excitement and tension in his heart, and finally galloped over.

"Chief, the cattle and sheep here are all over the mountains, and there are no less than 3,000 herdsmen alone, if I only rely on more than 1,000 cavalry, and I have to guard against the attack of the Zhao army, and I have to drive these very slow cattle and sheep and herdsmen, can I return to the tribe safely?"

After the head man saluted, he mustered up the courage to say these words in the puzzled eyes of the leader.

The leader of the Zodiac frowned and looked at Touman, and then asked, "Then what do you think should be, isn't it ready to abandon these cattle and sheep?" ”

There was already a slight unkindness in the tone of the leader of the scarf.

When Touman really faced the leader's questioning, he was not too afraid, his heart was extremely hot, and his head was very clear.

This steppe overlord who unified the Xiongnu for the first time in the future finally began to show his edge.
