As soon as the wool Daxu, which symbolized the authority of Ai Jin, fell, the only remaining bit of morale of the Xi people disappeared without a trace. All the soldiers turned and fled, ignoring their comrades who were crying and moaning under the enemy's horses. Su Si Sier ordered the cavalry to remove the felt pieces tied to the hooves of their mounts, and led the army to chase for more than 40 miles before collecting the troops.

In this battle, the Zhuqi coalition army attacked the enemy with 1,500 men and attacked 5,000 enemy troops, killed and wounded more than 1,700 opponents, captured 1,000 prisoners, captured more than 2,000 horses, and thousands of sheep, beef cattle and other materials used as military rations. The 1,500 brave men who accompanied Su Sixier in the battle only killed more than 120 people, more than 50 were seriously wounded, more than 400 were slightly wounded, and most of the rest of the men and horses were all unscathed.

The soldiers of the coalition army thundered with joy, escorted the prisoners, carried their baggage, and returned to the Su Si Department in a mighty manner. The several tribes who were unwilling to lead the strong men of their headquarters to accompany Su Sixir to send troops saw that the coalition army returned victorious, and each tribe paid very little, but the horses, cattle and sheep they received were a hundred times the amount they paid, and they regretted it greatly. Immediately jumped up like a toad with an inflated stomach, and called on everyone to follow and pursue, and must take advantage of the great victory to completely drive the Suotou Xi tribe from the grassland near the Crescent Lake.

Xu Dayan told everyone dozens of times about the truth of poor Kou Mo Chasing, and his mouth was foaming, but the elders refused to listen to his advice, but instead took out the traditional understanding of war on the grassland, and the big truth that snakes are to be killed. Su Sixier and Xu Dayan said that the elders were not enough, so they had to agree to let a few elders who were shouting to pursue the happiest and allow them to lead the young men of their clan to chase and kill the remnants of the enemy. As for the more than 2,000 warriors who had already done the work of harassing and killing the enemy, they remained in the tribe and waited for the spoils to be divided.

"Patriarch Xi'er, please send three hundred cavalry, and half of them will be taken by the right men? Greet the elders. I estimate that in less than five days, Elder Miye should be back! After Na Miye and a few other angry patriarchs led the troops to set off, Xu Dayan whispered to Su Sixier.

At this time, Su Si Sier had already admired Xu Dayan's wisdom so much that he immediately ordered three hundred people from his tribe and handed them over to his younger brother Su Si to lead them, and set off early the next morning along the footprints left by Na Miye and others, so as not to suffer a big loss.

On the afternoon of the fourth day, the captured baggage had just been distributed to the warriors, and Su Si had already led the dejected Namiye and other elders back to the tribe. The development of the battlefield situation was as Xu Dayan had predicted in advance, and Na Miye and the others took advantage of the great victory to hunt down and kill the remnants of the enemy, and at the beginning of the battle, they won many battles and captured more than 500 Xi herdsmen who had fallen behind. Just when they thought victory beckoned to them, a thousand men and horses left behind in Xi came to meet their own Ejin. The two sides met on the snow, and the offensive and defensive momentum turned immediately. Not only were the previously captured captives taken by the Xi people, but more than 700 warriors led by Na Miye and others were hacked to death, and more than 200 people were missing.

At the beginning, Su Sixier fought with the enemy, and the reason why he was able to win a big victory was because Xu Dayan had no last resort, and more importantly, Xi people walked on the snow for more than two days, and they were sleepy and tired. Su Si's troops defeated the enemy's tired army with an elite division, and naturally there was no reason for failure. And Na Miye and the others chased and killed the remnants of the enemy for two days, and they just repeated the mistakes of the other party.

This result was what Xu Dayan and Su Sixier expected, and the two looked at each other and smiled, and did not hold Na Miye and the others responsible for the defeat and loss of the teacher, but set up a banquet to comfort a few elders who had lost the battle. Then Su Si attached himself to the situation and put forward a proposal that the soldiers of all departments should be unified in the future to be dispatched by Xi'er.

There were not many people to rely on in the hands of a few elders who had suffered defeat, and the fallen clansmen were still waiting for Xu Dayan and Su Si Si Sier to find a way to save them, so they had to agree to Su Si's request to leave aggrievedly. Seeing that his orders were no longer anyone's elbows, Su Sixier brought in a captured Xi clan elder and ordered him to swear a heavy oath to Changshengtian that he would not lead troops to attack again. Then he was let go back to discuss the exchange of prisoners, the bodies of the war dead, and war compensation for the Xi and Xi tribes.

The prisoners and corpses abandoned by the enemy in the hands of the Zhufei coalition army were far more than the prisoners and corpses obtained by the Suotou Xi Department in the final counterattack, so Xu Dayan offered a sky-high price, and asked the elder named Wu Yile to bring a message to the Xi people's Da Aijin, after the two sides exchanged the prisoners and corpses one-on-one, if he was willing to give 10,000 sheep to ransom all the remaining prisoners of war, then the Zhuqi coalition army was willing to take the corpses of all the Xi people who died in the war as an additional head and return them to the Xi Department for burial. If Xi Bu could not give so many sheep to ransom people, a captured soldier would be worth ten sheep and a carcass would be worth three sheep. The general's ransom rose according to the number of troops he led, and the elder's value increased fivefold.

"We can't take out so many sheep!" Elder Wuyile's face turned pale with anger and protested loudly. If the Xi people had enough sheep in their hands to support the survival of the tribe, they would not brave the wind and snow to attack the Zhuqi Alliance. Moreover, the responsibility for this war is not all in the Xi department, and the tribes of the Xia tribe practice troops every day, so they may not be moved by the intention of sneaking up on the Suotou Xi people.

"If you can't take it out, you can make it up in batches. The deadline is before the grass yellow next fall, after which all captives will be enslaved to us forever! Su Si Sier deliberately pretended to be a fierce and vicious look and said. Before proposing this sky-high price, he, Xu Dayan and others had already estimated the strength of Suotou Xi after this battle, and had long expected that the other party would not be able to pay the full ransom.

The reason why it was a sky-high price was because Xu Dayan told him that the Zhufei Coalition Army still needed time to train. In terms of personal bravery and force, the warriors of the coalition are unparalleled in the world. In terms of tactical coordination and battlefield coordination, coalition soldiers are no match for a regular army.

"Immortal Heaven will curse you profiteers who have broken their hearts!" Uille cursed and turned to walk out of the tent. In the laughter of the tribal warriors, he took the jerky and mare's milk that Su Si Sier "gave" him, rode an old and thin horse, and stumbled out of the camp strongly.

Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the other party, Na Miye and the others thought that if Su Si had not been attached to answer halfway, it would have been him who had left like a lost dog in Suotou Xi at this moment, and he was more convinced of Xu Dayan in his heart, and his eyes at Su Si Xi'er were also a little friendly.

Thinking of Su Si's detachment, the elders Huo Ran remembered another young man of the Han family whose name was attached to him. Ever since he returned to the camp after winning the battle that day, the boy has disappeared in front of everyone's eyes. If you talk about the merits in detail, I am afraid that the credit of this person is not under Xu Da's eyes. Especially for the injuries of the Zhubu on the battlefield, if it were not supported by the legend that the holy wolf once blessed the boy, they would not have had a chance to survive after being so badly injured.

Li Xu didn't know that the entire tribe was grateful for his benefits. After the victory in the raid, he quietly returned to his tent. There was no way to vent the depression in his heart, and even the celebration banquet held by Su Sibu that night was excused by a headache.

After finding a corner where no one was hiding and getting drunk, Li Xu suddenly fell into obsession. Every morning, before dawn, he would get up and ride a horse and dance with a knife, and when the sun came out, he would go to Aslan's house to eat to fill his stomach, and then go to Dul's house to visit his sleepy companions, and then start to practice riding and archery.

"If my martial arts are half that of Brother Mao Gong, even if it is a quarter, I won't let the fine and calyx fall to be hacked to death. I won't let Dur lose an arm for me! The boy practiced his archery skills hard and blamed himself at the same time.

On that day, when everyone went out hunting, he was the first to raise his head. ran to the crescent moon lake, also to create a chance for him to wash away his previous shame. The young Li Xu had not experienced any major storms, and suddenly saw his companions around him dying in front of him one by one, and easily carried the responsibility on his shoulders. Xu Dayan tried to persuade many times but had no effect, so he had to slowly understand it by himself.

Xu Dayan believed that Li Xu could free himself by himself, but the girl Tao Kuo was anxious. Seeing Li Xu's demented appearance, he didn't care about calculating with him that day, but brought fresh goat's milk every day to quench his thirst. Seeing that Li Xu's fingers were blistered with blood because of pulling the bow all day long, he specially asked for his father's jade finger sleeve to give to Li Xu to protect his hands.

Li Xu refused to accept such a valuable gift, and under the pretext of using finger sleeves to affect the flexibility of his fingers, he politely declined Tao Kuo's kindness. Tao Kuo thought that his bloody hands looked distressed, and reminded him that archery would always hurt the bow. When Li Xu heard this, he thanked him loudly and put away his treasure, but he went to the public treasury to borrow five hard bows commonly used by the people of the Fei tribe in riding and archery, and took turns to practice hard day and night.

"Stupid detachment, you keep shooting, no one cares if you're tired!" Tao Kuo's eyes turned red with anger, and he stomped his feet away. walked far, but secretly turned his head and was sad at that stupid boy.

"Their Han people's thinking is different from our men, what to do, you might as well ask Aunt Qing!" Eru saw that her sister was sad and sad, and quietly gave her ideas. The Han people all have a delicate heart, like Brother Xu, who used a trap to break the enemy army, and quietly borrowed the enemy's hand to sweep away the opponents of his father, and searched the entire grassland, and it is estimated that he will not be able to find a second one. Although he looks more honest than Brother Xu, who can be sure that his wisdom is shallower than that of Crescent Lake? Instead of trying to guess their minds, it is better to find a more attentive Han person to help you think of a way. Besides, Aunt Qing has a very strong relationship with the two sisters, so she shouldn't refuse this little favor.

After listening to his sister's advice, the clouds on his face dissipated. happily took a brush and went into Aunt Qing's tent by asking for advice on painting skills. Two women, one older and one younger, muttered in the tent for more than half an hour, and finally Aunt Qing gave her daughter a very pertinent suggestion as a passer-by: "Man, there are always some hurdles that he needs to overcome by himself." Instead of feeling sorry for him and crying for him, you should push him in the back. After this hurdle, even if his heart is wooden, it will leave your shadow! ”

The girl blinked her big watery eyes and thought for a while, as if she understood or not. How to carve the details of her own shadow in the other party's heart, she doesn't care about it. The question of how to help Li Xu get over his own hurdle is the top priority in the eyes of the girl.
