Chapter 358: No Man's Land
On the prairie, at a glance, the passages are everywhere, Yuan Hao is also very familiar with this terrain, one person and two horses, and it is desperate to advance quickly, the speed of the cavalry is very fast, within 3 days, after crossing the territory of Liao, he has walked for about a thousand miles in a row.
Went deep into the hinterland of the Liao State, found the location of the Dangxiang tribe, and on the night of the third day, after a little rest, in the early morning, he broke through a tribe of only 5,000 people.
A large number of cavalry surrounded and killed directly, leaving 3,000 soldiers to fight back desperately, but under the guard, there were heavy casualties, but the resistance caused some casualties, and also inspired Yuan Hao's ferocity, and a bloody massacre began.
They killed all the people who were above the wheel, and neither man nor woman spared, leaving the children behind, and left in their place, in the unobstructed steppe, without any food, without cattle, and what awaited them was death.
After burning, killing and looting, the beastly cavalry began a bloodthirsty journey, grabbing enough horses, resources, and a small number of weapons, which further strengthened Yuan Hao's strength.
Not to mention, they have entered the hinterland of the party, under the deliberate intention of the Liao State, the party tribe has been weakened quite a lot, otherwise, it will not be like now, migrating hundreds of miles, they are weak at the same time, the property and livestock have also been greatly reduced, they are very natural, they are relatively dense together.
This saved Yuan Hao's huge time, and the distance between one tribe and another tribe was no more than a hundred miles at most, and for fast horses, it might only take an hour to arrive, and a killing began.
From the massacre of this tribe as a starting point, in half a month, Yuan Hao did it 27 times, each time it was extermination, on the grassland under extensive management, unless it was a very close tribe, otherwise, there was no discovery at all, there was such a bloodthirsty force, attacking frantically, these are the foundation of the Liao State.
After 15 moves, the outer tribes were swept away, and the blood and fire were all turned inward, and the interior began to know that there was a force attacking them, but there was no way.
Neither the gathering nor the call for help came, and they seemed to be surrounded by a terrible force, and gradually walked into death.
Under this premise, Yuan Hao changed his approach and adopted other methods to appease and use both, and when the letters entered the various tribes, they understood that Yuan Hao was coming.
Yuan Hao's news did not come, but these party clans all knew that Liao Xingzong was personally recruiting, and their party clan had also been transferred a large number of people.
Because of this, they knew that Yuan Hao was going to be unlucky, the strength of the Liao State was terrifying, and the Liao Lord's personal expedition must be assured.
But now, Yuan Hao actually appeared on the grassland, what the hell is this, but anyone who can think about it a little bit will think that maybe it is a desperate approach under the premise that Western Xia is unfavorable.
Even if he knew this, Yuan Hao's reputation still made these people dare not act rashly, because in this case, Yuan Hao, who was already crazy, would do anything.
This is consistent with their previous investigation, the surrounding party tribes were almost cleaned up by Yuan Hao, 15 tribes, at least 50,000 dang party tribes, except for some children who were still dying, all the others were killed.
I knew that Yuan Hao's killing intent was awe-inspiring, but I didn't expect that it would be so terrifying, and to put it bluntly, Yuan Hao is a killing god, and when the killing god comes, what can they think.
The natural characteristics of people will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, even if they have to face the Liao State in the future, they still have to obey Yuan Hao's orders, it is necessary to live, and suddenly, Yuan Hao increased almost 20,000 cavalry.
Maybe these 20,000 cavalry have other thoughts, and even these 20,000 cavalry are similar to those in Suzhou, and their combat effectiveness is extremely weak, but in Yuan Hao's eyes, these are cannon fodder, and he is not worried about their backlash at all.
They all ventured into the hinterland of the Liao State, and they started to kill, what else is there to be afraid of, so that there are not many conditions for a person to be loyal, but let one not rebel, it would be too much, so that he would never be able to return to the Liao State, he must let them see the blood, the blood of the Khitans, increase their combat effectiveness, so that they will not be in a hurry before the real tough battle comes, and the same, let them never know the Liao State.
The Dangxiang tribe was almost all taken, so it was the time to show the real fangs, with 25,000 people, Yuan Hao walked out of the Dangxiang area for the first time and began to attack a Khitan nomad.
This is a tribe with more than 40,000 people, and even 5,000 soldiers, but it is a real big clan, but because of the Liao State's expedition and transfer, they were taken away 2,000 people, that is to say, the number of soldiers was reduced to 3,000, even if there were many in the prime of life, but 25,000 people, which was enough to threaten him.
It was another sneak attack, but not during the day, but at dusk, and with the cover of this mountain range, they arrived at a distance of 3 miles from the tribe at dusk, and then took advantage of the dusk to start the attack, and when the fire was raging, and the whole tribe was buried in the fire, the killing began again.
This time, Yuan Hao and the cavalry who came from Suzhou under his command did not make a move, and it was completely done by these newly attached party cavalry.
Perhaps from the beginning, they hesitated, but one man went out and received a reward, a woman, a possessions, an animal, a military merit, and these unsparing rewards, which made them mad.
The party cavalry at the bottom, their requirements are very simple, they don't ask for any fame, fortune and status, what they ask for is these most basic and simple property, so that they can live a good life.
This is a Khitan tribe, and it is also the core tribe of dozens of miles around, and he was broken, which also represents a huge vacuum in the management of this area by the entire Khitan tribe.
If it is a rebellion of the Dangxiang clan, this time it will be fine, but is not, what Yuan Hao wants is not this, but all, before the Liao State reacts, sweep the entire grassland.
Set off a higher bloody wind in the grassland, when one by one the tribes were slaughtered, Yuan Hao gave full play to the military characteristics, dealing with not the regular army, but the poor tribes on the grassland, even in the territory of the Liao State, but under the premise that the Khitan nobles control everything, there are only a handful of tribes of more than 50,000 people, and under the various breakthroughs, they are almost invincible.
In just one month, Yuan Hao broke through a total of 37 tribes, killed almost more than 500,000 people, and a large area was cleared, and there were no traces left, becoming a no-man's land.
