Just when the warriors of the Antelope tribe and the Qiangjiao cavalry were fighting to the death on the east side of the gourd valley in the narrow valley of the sheep's intestines, Sima An, the Wei general who had quietly sneaked into the Yunan Basin Valley where the Qiang tribe was located, had already issued an order to slaughter the cavalry under his command.

I saw that under the hazy moonlight, more than a thousand Qiangjiao cavalry shouted incomprehensible calls, brandished scimitars, and rushed to the camp fence of the Qiang tribe.

The original intention of these fences of the Karma tribe was only to prevent the beasts of the Buck and Mountains from going down the mountain to devour the sheep, how to stop the Horned Cavalry, so that in an instant, these fences were cut down or destroyed by the Horned Cavalry, and became full of holes.

Or some of the Karma tribe warriors who were on guard at night sensed the enemy attack and sounded the warning horn in panic, but it was too late to stop the Karma cavalry from rushing into the tribe.

"Aha-"

"Yo-hooβ€”"

With a shout of excitement, the Karma cavalry carried their scimitars into the camp of the Karma tribe and killed a man of the Karma tribe who was disheveled and had just run out of the felt tent.

The screams and the women's cries suddenly resounded throughout the tribal camp.

"What's going on?!"

Yakha, the leader of the tribe, who was appointed by the great patriarch of the tribe, did not care to appease his wife and children, and put on a sheepskin jacket and got out of the felt tent, looking uncertainly at the east direction of the tribe, listening to the sound of fighting and mourning from there.

"It's Wei Jun!"

A warrior of the Qiang tribe who came on horseback dismounted from a distance and ran away to Yakha, and after saluting, he said anxiously: "Leader Yakha, the Wei army has entered the tribe!" ”

"What?!" Jacques Ha was shocked when he heard this.

You must know that when the patriarch of their tribe, Baturu, led the army to attack, Yakha also personally sent him off, calculating the time, at this moment Baturu should be leading his own warriors to fight with the Wei army in the Hulu Valley area, how could the Wei army appear here?

Could it be that the Great Patriarch has been defeated?

Hearing this, Jacques Ha's heart was a little shaken, after all, Baturu had taken away thousands of warriors from the Qiang tribe, if these warriors had really been defeated by the Wei army, then how brave should the Wei army, those Qiangjiao cavalry, be?

A moment later, the leaders of the tribe heard the news and gathered around Jacqueha arguing solemnly.

It is not a matter of arguing about sending people to resist the night attack of the Wei army, because Jacqueha has already issued an order to let the thousand commanders and warriors of the tribe lead the tribesmen to resist the invasion of the Wei army, and the leaders are debating whether to move the tribesmen immediately.

According to the original plan made by the great patriarch Baturu, until tomorrow, the Qian tribe will let some warriors escort the women and children to move south, cross the Bears Ears Mountain, and follow the Danshui to the south of Sichuan, that is, the land of Wanyong.

However, no one expected that the Wei army would kill the tribe tonight, and it was when the great patriarch Baturu led thousands of tribal warriors to attack the Wei army, but his whereabouts were unknown.

Looking at the dispute between the leaders, Jacques Ha was also sweating with anxiety.

He knew that today's Wei army suddenly killed their Qian tribe under unknown circumstances, which was extremely bad news, and he even began to suspect that the strange fire in the Hulu Valley area was very likely to be directed and acted by the Wei army itself, in order to lure their Qian tribe to attack.

The people must be relocated immediately!

A flash of realization flashed in Jacqueha's heart, because he realized that the number of Wei troops attacking the tribe may not be large now, but in the future, there will definitely be a steady stream of Wei troops attacking the tribe, and if the tribe does not move at this time, then the Ta Qian tribe will follow in the footsteps of the Wuxu royal court and be slaughtered by the Wei army.

But where to move?

In fact, at this moment, Yakeha has two choices, one is to cross the Qin Mountains to the west and retreat to the territory of Qin; The second is to cross the Bears Ears Mountain and go to southern Sichuan.

Recalling the advice of the great patriarch Baturu to himself before leaving, Jacqueha gritted his teeth and made a decision: to migrate to southern Sichuan!

Thinking of this, he interrupted the dispute between the leaders and ordered in an irrefutable tone: "Quickly let the clansmen evacuate to Bear's Ears Mountain, and our tribe will retreat to southern Sichuan from today!" ”

Hearing Jacqueha's words, all the leaders present were shocked.

After all, it stands to reason that in terms of the current situation, the warriors of the Qian tribe who stayed behind in the tribe may not be able to repel those Wei troops, after all, there are still nearly 10,000 warriors in the tribe, and even nearly 100,000 slaves, and in a short period of time, this camp may not fall completely.

No, one of the leaders objected, believing that at this time it was better to organize men to repel the Wei attack, rather than to move the tribesmen south.

Jacqueha, however, shook her head and firmly rejected the leader's proposal.

Because he had a hunch that if the Ta Qian tribe did not take advantage of the fact that the Wei army had not yet attacked as much as possible, then it was possible that after dawn, when the Wei army began to launch a fierce attack on the Yunan Basin Valley, the Ta Qian tribe would follow in the footsteps of the Wuxu tribe.

By then, seeing that the situation is not right, it will be too late to let the people move.

Eventually, Jacques Ha persuaded the leaders by virtue of his special status as a candidate for the Grand Patriarch handpicked by Baturu.

Under his leadership, a portion of the Qiang warriors were quickly gathered and led their slaves into battle against the invading Wei army; As for the warriors of the other tribe, they protected the tribesmen - women and children, and evacuated to Bears Ears Mountain.

At this time, in the narrow valley of the sheep's intestines, Baturu, the patriarch of the Qiang tribe, who had only one hand left, was enduring the pain, lying on the back of his horse, urging the horse to run as fast as he could, because he had already heard the shouts and screams of killing and sorrow coming from the valley of the southern basin.

Suddenly, Baturu faintly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and he looked back nervously, feeling horrified in his heart.

You must know that a moment ago, in order to prevent the Horned cavalry led by Bosil from following them all the way to the tribe, Baturu reluctantly let the only hundreds of cavalry left around him at that time to stay behind, delaying as much time as possible, while he took a few henchmen to ride and galloped towards the location of the tribe - at that time, he did not know that the Wei general Sima An had already led a cavalry into the valley of the Nan Basin, and mistakenly thought that Boxil was trying to take advantage of the victory to pursue, so he wanted to delay the Wei cavalry on Bosil's side as much as possible, so that he could return to the tribe one step earlier, Prepare your people for battle.

It's just that he didn't expect that as he got closer and closer to the Nan Basin Valley and heard the shouts of killing from there, Baturu was frightened: it turned out that the Wei army had already killed his Qian tribe.

Closer, closer......

Only a few dozen feet away from the exit of the canyon, Baturu noticed the light of the fire reaching the canyon.

Fire?

His complexion changed drastically, and he grabbed the reins with his only remaining hand, increased the speed of his war horse again, and rushed out of the canyon at once.

At this time, the scenery in front of him made him stunned.

In the distance in front of him, there was a seemingly boundless sea of fire, and in the midst of the fire, the felt tent of the Karma tribe was burning.

"No...... Not ......"

Baturu muttered a muttering moan, and a little fear and remorse appeared in his eyes.

"Poofβ€”"

"Puff puffβ€”"

Several sharp arrows shot out of Baturu's back, piercing his chest.

Barutu didn't react, he was hit by an arrow and fell off his horse.

The dirt he had fallen on was no longer the same grassy smell it once had, but it seemed to have a scorching smell of being baked by flames.

A very ordinary wildflower in front of him seemed to have shrunk a little by the heat of the sea of fire in the distance.

Still, there's a bit of nostalgia for Baturu.

Suddenly, a horse's hoof fell heavily, trampling the wild flower under the iron hoof, and the owner of the horse, the Grand Governor of the Horned Cavalry, Bosil, glanced down at Baturu, who had fallen next to the horse's hooves under his crotch, and then looked up at the seemingly boundless sea of fire in front of him.

"Go around from both sides." Bossil raised his finger and shouted in a deep voice: "Now, we will help General Sima!" ”

With his order, a steady stream of cavalry galloped out of the canyon, bypassed the sea of fire, and slaughtered into the valley of the Nan Basin.

At this time, due to the desperate counterattack of the Qiang tribe, the offensive of more than 1,000 cavalry led by Sima An was once contained and could not continue to expand the results until the reinforcements led by Bosil arrived.

Aside from the thousands of cavalry led by the two captains of the Horn Army, Hechahachi and Nuhar, who were fighting with the Antelope tribe in the Hulu Valley, and the cavalry under the command of Sima An in the narrow valley of the sheep intestines, they successively killed the Nan Basin Valley where the Qiang tribe was located.

This night attack lasted until dawn the next day, and when the light of the morning sun shone on the Nan Basin Valley again, the tribal camp of the Qian tribe that was no less than the scale of the Wei city had almost become a ruin, and the surviving Qian tribesmen could not bear to look back at the tribe who could not escape in time by the Qiang Horn cavalry, and could not bear to look back at those women of their own tribe crying and being taken away by the Qiang Horn Cavalry, they could only suppress the anger in their hearts, protect some of the tribesmen, and leave behind the tribe's wealth, sheep and some slaves, Evacuate to Bears Ears Mountain.

"Do you want to chase it?"

Bossile came to Sima An's side, looked in the direction of Bears Ears Mountain and asked.

Sima An glanced at the remaining recalcitrant rebels, almost all of whom were slaves abandoned by the Qiang tribe, and shook his head, saying, "After a night of fierce fighting, the soldiers are already tired, and it is useless to chase them. ”

With that, he frowned slightly and looked at the migrating Qiang tribesmen on Bears Ears Mountain.

In this battle, he originally thought that the Qian tribe would defend the Nan Basin Valley at any cost, and in this way, his Wei army would be able to slaughter the Qian tribe to the ground, but unexpectedly, the Qian tribe made a very wise decision: at the beginning of the night attack last night, he began to organize people to send young women and children away from the tribe, so that Sima An did not achieve the expected goal.

"Is Baturu dead?"

Sima An asked suddenly.

"Dead by a bow." Boshel asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?" ”

Sima An shook his head and just silently looked in the direction of Bears Ears Mountain.

He knew that although Baturu died, it did not mean that the Karma tribe had become a scattered sand, this tribe still had an excellent leader, otherwise, the Karma tribe's response last night would not have been so calm and clear.

But for now, he didn't have time to take care of the remnants of those Karma tribes, after all, the other party had clearly withdrawn from this war.

…… It's time to take back the Jianbei barracks.

Looking to the east, Sima An thought secretly.
