Night falls.

In the military tent, Zhang Baiqian, Du Zhongnian, Cui Dakui and others were sitting around Guan Yu and conducting discussions in a serious atmosphere.

Zhang Baiqian hugged his fists and said: "General Guan, the grain and grass brought by our army this time are limited, and the last general can send someone to contact the defenders of my Feihong Pass and order them to escort the grain and grass in time to ensure supplies." ”

Guan Yu shook his head and said, "It's not easy to talk about!" Far water does not quench the thirst of the near, not to mention that the supply line is too long, and it is very vulnerable to a sneak attack by the enemy on the way. Of course, our army can allocate a part of its forces to ensure safety along the way, but if the tail is too big, our army will almost be crucified here. And that, perhaps, is what our opponents want to see the most. ”

Du Zhongnian asked, "But...... In the vast grassland, the enemy army is erratic, and in case our army cannot receive food and grass, it can only return in vain. The risk is even greater! ”。

Guan Yu looked up at the vast dark night outside the tent and said softly: "So, the problem of grain and grass is best solved on the spot." ”

Cui Dakui stretched his neck and said, "I'm afraid this is difficult, right?" At the banquet just now, didn't you listen to Song Yu and the others? The King of the Prairie Khan forced the various tribes to clear the wilderness, and they all ran away from us, and it was not easy to find them! ”。

Guan Yu glanced back at everyone and said with a slight smile: "From the reception banquet held today, do you think that Song Yu and the others really belong to my Dachu?" ”。

Zhang Baiqian and the others looked at each other, but did not answer immediately, but lowered their heads and pondered.

Cui Dakui asked tentatively, "Could it be that General Guan already has a conclusion in his heart?" I also wonder: Why did you directly seal Song Yu as the commander of the capital in front of all the generals? That kid doesn't look very good at fighting, and more than a thousand of our brothers have been handed over to him, in case ......."

Guan Yu smiled and waved his hand: "Brother Da Kui is right, after several temptations, although he is not completely sure, he is not far from ten. I judge that a few of them are really cornered! The details will not be detailed. In addition, the promotion of him to be the unification of the capital, first, shows that we have great trust in them and do not doubt the use of people; Second, the task I assigned to them was to reconnoiter and report the news, find the scattered grassland tribes within a time limit, and try to avoid head-on clashes even if they encountered the men and horses of the grassland coalition army. ”

Zhang Baiqian frowned and said: "However, after the founding of the Great Chu State, the soldiers of our army were strictly disciplined, and they did not commit any crimes against the people, did the general want them to rob the livestock of the herdsmen of the grassland tribes?" I am afraid that it will be difficult for the brothers to adjust to ...... for a while."

Guan Yu clapped his hands, got up and laughed: "Brother Bai Qian, the brothers have eaten a lot of grains, and it is time to learn how to eat meat!" ”。

A few people smiled knowingly, Guan Yu leaned down and sat down again, and said: "All the systems and regulations in this world are written for people to see, but people are alive!" Moreover, mercy to one's enemies is cruelty to one's own brothers! Didn't that so-called steppe Khan want us to chase his ass in circles? We don't! Directly look for their nest, serve it, and make them anxious to settle accounts with us. Of course, people should try to kill as little as possible, especially old and young women and children who have no ability to resist. You'll have to be more ruthless than the ferocious wolf! Strength is everything".

Du Zhongnian nodded and said, "The migration of the tribe is slow, the target is large, and it is much easier to deal with than those enemy forces!" ”。

Guan Yu raised his hand and patted Du Zhongnian's knee with satisfaction, turned his head and said, "In the past, the two elder brothers said that I had the kindness of a woman, and it depends on who is right. These steppe bandits have been robbing our border people for many years, and they always have to repay their debts, and this time they also have a taste of being bullied! Otherwise, they will always think that we are good bullies. ”

Although Great Khan Bars decreed that no tribe should have a tribal leader, all tribes must become one family. Each tribe can only send one or two representatives to participate in the discussion of major matters in the clan, but Chao Gesulid, as the leader of the original Tuni tribe, is still respected enough in his tribe.

Recently, for a long time, his old man's life has not been easy. Although they have long walked out of the shadow of the pain of losing their children, the Tuni tribe is closest to the border of Dachu, so the road forced to migrate is even farther, and the big guys are complaining along the way.

Although Chao Gesulid tried a lot to convince everyone, he was actually a little dissatisfied in his heart. After exhausting his mental strength, he finally arrived at the designated place. Chao Gesulid, who was getting older, felt as if his whole body was falling apart, and he didn't want to move. The Great Khan Bars was finally good to their family, and deliberately left two thousand elite horsemen to protect them day and night.

On this day, one of the guards came in to report that a guy who had come from nowhere, claiming to be an old friend of Gesurid, was outside the tent and was stopped by the guard.

Chao Gesulid was in a depressed mood and wanted to find someone to talk to, so he waved his hand impatiently to the guard, "Since it is my old friend, let him in." ”

The visitor stepped in with his head down, but he covered most of his face with layers of scarves.

Chao Gesulid asked, "Is it very windy outside?" You are ......".

The man unhurriedly removed his scarf and grinned, "Dear Lord Chao Gesulid, you don't know me anymore?" ”。

Asahsurid was first startled by the unusually ugly half of the face, and then narrowed his eyes to read more from the remaining half of the face.

Seeing his confused look, the man couldn't help but grinned: "It seems that you really forget how much you are forgetful!" Lord Chao Gesulid shouldn't not recognize me, I'm an envoy of the Mumba tribe! ”。

"Momba? …… Wasn't the Mumba tribe exterminated a long time ago? Where did the messenger come from......".

Chao Gesulid muttered to himself as he carefully examined the visitor.

Suddenly, his slightly narrowed eyes widened suddenly, he raised his arm, and pointed a finger at the incoming man: "Are you...... You are the messenger of the Mumba tribe! ”。

The man grinned again, and the long scar on his face tore his face even more hideously terrifying.

"Finally remembered? Back then, our tribal leader had a very good personal relationship with you, and even planned to marry his daughter to your youngest son! Your tribe has been attacked by the steppe coalition led by the Great Khan Bars, and the leader of our tribe has sent tribal warriors to help you meet the enemy. It is a pity that the Great Khan of Bars became your son-in-law, and when he turned his hands to slaughter my people, you stood by and did not send a single soldier, so that all my people were slaughter......ed."

Speaking of this, the person choked up and seemed to be unable to continue.

After calming down his emotions a little, the person who came raised his head slightly, with tears in one eye, and smiled slightly: "Lord Chao Gesulide, now I can tell you my other identity: I am a commander of the Great Chu army, and I am ordered by the Emperor of Great Chu to help my Heavenly Dynasty Emperor come to exterminate the grassland bandits!" ”。

There was a deafening shout of killing from outside the tent, and the sound seemed to come from all directions. Chao Gesulid was completely stunned, and he asked himself: Is all this just an illusion?

With a "poof", the thin Song Yu had already jumped in front of Chao Gesu Lide with an arrow step. At some point, there was an extra dagger in his hand, which rested lightly on Gesurid's neck, and whispered in his ear: "I advise you not to move, and it is best not to let the guards outside your tent not act rashly, otherwise, your life will not be saved!" ”。

At this moment, as soon as the curtain was raised, a guard armed with a scimitar hurried in, and said with a panicked face, "...... to Lord Gesurid."

He suddenly closed his mouth, and his eyes were staring at the unbelievable scene in front of him.

Xuanwu General Zhang Baiqian jumped on his horse with a spear and followed behind the team. The reason why he was too lazy to do it was because he felt that those steppe warriors who were holding scimitars and yelling at the oncoming warriors were pitifully small in number, and they were not enough for his soldiers to stuff their teeth.

The battle was soon over.

"General Declaration, according to your generals, all those who resist with weapons have been killed by us! What's next? ”。

Guan Yu glanced around in a complicated mood, circled his horse and said lightly: "Drive out all the people who are alive and no longer resist from the yurt, let the brothers search around, and leave all the livestock, grain and grass to replenish the military supplies." Throw all the living into the open field, and set fire to their yurts, and the fire will be as big as possible! ”。
