A few months ago, the Wind Leader was in high spirits and led the Wind Tribe to defeat the Black Wolf Tribe, and the countless loot was enough to make the Wind Tribe even stronger.

A few months later, the Wind Tribe was beaten to the doorstep by the enemy, and seeing that its destruction was imminent, the Wind Leader was betrayed by the clan and killed with one arrow.

The Wind Leader died like this, died under the arrows of the clan, and no one avenged him, and under the leadership of the clansman who killed the Wind Chief, more than a dozen people stayed away from the warring Wind Tribe, ready to find a new tribe to join.

Women are just children, and when they join a new tribe, they will have it all again, and the big husband will have no wife.

There are also more than a dozen people who are reluctant to leave, but the form in front of them discourages them, and it is better to give up if they go back.

The Wind Tribe inhabited by a fight

The cavalry troops and chariot troops from the Xia Kingdom fired death arrows at the Wind Tribal people, and the cattle and horses blocking the front were driven away, and the Wind Tribe people behind were exposed and killed by the arrows one by one.

The Wind Tribe clansmen are still holding on, and many clansmen are holding bows and arrows to shoot arrows at the Xia warriors, but the bow and arrows of the Wind Tribe are too poor, even if the arrows fly in front of the Xia warriors, they don't have much power, and they can't bring any harm to the Xia warriors at all.

"Hasn't the chief come back yet?"

"If you don't come back, there are only so many people around the leader who break out, and if you come back, you will die."

"Has the Leader abandoned us?"

"I don't know."

The battle continued, the number of dead and wounded of the Wind Tribe had exceeded five hundred, for such a long time, but there was no return of the leader, they felt that the leader had given up, and there was no thought of fighting in their hearts, only thinking about how they could escape, they didn't want to die yet.

The battle situation has been clear, the Wind Tribe will be defeated, and no one has even been able to escape from the encirclement of the Xia army.

In one of the carriages, Lu Zhe said to the worried herders: "Go and shout to them and tell them that as long as they lay down their arms, we will not kill them." ”

"I see." The herders said they understood.

Just as the herdsmen got out of the car, Lu Zhe said to a longbowman: "Shoot an arrow, let everyone stop attacking, and persuade the enemy to surrender." ”

After receiving the order, the longbowman immediately took out a ringing arrow from his quiver and shot it towards the sky above the wind tribe's residence, and the piercing sound immediately spread around, and when they heard the sound of the arrow, the warriors of the Xia Kingdom stopped shooting arrows one after another.

"The enemy attack has stopped? Are they going to rush up? ”

"I don't know."

At this time, the herdsmen walked towards the middle of the battlefield under the protection of two sword and shield soldiers armed with copper shields, and both warring sides were watching the three people who walked into the battlefield.

"It's him, it's he who brought the enemy here, damn it, I would have killed him if I knew about it." A Wind Tribe said hatefully.

Those women from the Black Wolf Tribe had a strange feeling in their hearts, the herdsmen led the Wind Tribe to hit the Black Wolf Tribe hard, and now the herdsmen attacked the Wind Tribe with enemies.

The three herdsmen were less than ten feet away from the Wind Tribe in front of them, and an arrow shot towards the herdsmen, which was easily blocked by the two sword and shield soldiers.

When the distance was shortened to about five zhang, the three herdsmen stopped, the herdsmen's hearts were full of fear, afraid of being shot by the wind tribesmen, but the herdsmen had to suppress the fear in their hearts, and calmly shouted in their half-baked wind tribe language to the wind tribesmen in front of them: "You hurry up and lay down your weapons, as long as you lay down your weapons, you will not die." ”

"Let's lay down our arms? How can it be? Laying down a weapon is death, not laying down a weapon is also death, and before I die, I have to kill a few enemies. "Most of the few Wind tribesmen, especially the remaining men, have this idea in their hearts, after all, the two nomadic tribes are at war, and most of the time the men in the captives will be killed.

However, most of the people of the Wind Tribe were touched by the herdsman's words, and they wondered if they would not die if they laid down their weapons, especially the women from the Black Wolf Tribe, who had not died since they were captured by the Wind Tribe, and if they were captured by the enemy in front of them, they would most likely not have died.

Just when the Wind Tribe was thinking nonsense, the herdsman began to speak again: "Everyone put down their weapons, if you don't put down your weapons, you will only be killed, as long as you put down your weapons to continue to live, the bows and arrows in your hands can't hurt us at all, but we can easily kill you." ”

The words of the herdsmen, the wind tribesmen can't refute it, this is the case, the range of the arrows of the wind tribe is far less than the range of the arrows of the Xia country, at a long distance, the warriors of the Xia tribe can shoot the wind tribesmen one by one, but the wind tribesmen can't hurt the warriors of the Xia country.

"Order all the sword and shield men and pikemen to get out of the carriage, with the sword and shield men in front and the pikemen behind, press up, and the cavalry and carriage follow." Lu Zhe issued a new order, and his own cavalry conveyed Lu Zhe's order everywhere.

Trample! Trample! Trample!

The sword and shield men stood in a neat row, and behind them was a row of pikemen, and after they were lined up, the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen stepped forward in unison, and little by little towards the wind tribe's residence, behind them, the cavalry and carriages were also slowly moving forward.

This is true in one part, in the other three, and the encirclement is slowly shrinking.

When the array entered the range of the bows and arrows of the Wind Tribe clansmen, several men immediately shot the arrows in their hands at the Xia warriors.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The rough arrows were easily blocked by the brass shield in the hands of the sword and shield soldiers.

The Wind Tribe did not believe in evil, and shot a few more arrows, all of which were blocked by the copper shield, before giving up the attack.

Step by step, the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer, the closest distance between the two sides is less than three zhang, seeing the Xia warriors who pressed up, the Feng tribesmen kept retreating with weapons in their hands, they were still hesitating, they didn't know whether they should believe the enemy's words or not.

"Believe me, as long as you lay down your arms, you won't die." The herdsman continued to shout.

This time the herdsman's words worked, more than a dozen women from the black wolf tribe threw away the weapons in their hands and stood in place in a daze, those who did not throw down their weapons continued to retreat, and the warriors of the Xia Kingdom passed the women who threw down their weapons and continued to move forward.

Seeing this scene, some women threw down their weapons, they didn't want to die, they wanted to continue to live.

"Come along, we won't kill you, don't worry." A warrior from the Xia Kingdom gestured to the Feng tribesmen who had laid down their weapons.

Knowing what the warriors of the Xia Kingdom meant, the Feng tribesmen who laid down their weapons hesitated to follow, they had no idea of escaping, and without horses, they couldn't escape at all.

"Die, you all give me death."

A man from the Wind Tribe held a bone knife and slashed frantically at the front of the sword and shield soldier, the sword and shield soldier stepped forward, and the copper shield in his hand slammed forward, and the wind tribe man was directly smashed to the ground, and the sword and shield soldier took away the bone knife in the enemy's hand and continued to move forward, and someone behind him held a rope to tie up the enemy who dared to resist.

Capture as many enemies as possible, and then send them to the mines to mine, they are needed for the development of the Xia Kingdom.

For the warriors of the Xia Kingdom, killing the enemy can make meritorious contributions, and capturing the enemy is greater than killing the enemy.

Moving forward, the warriors of the Xia Kingdom stepped forward step by step, more of the Wind Tribe people laid down their weapons, and most of the remaining Wind Tribe people kept retreating, only a few Wind Tribal people held weapons to attack the Xia warriors, most of them were captured, and a small number were killed.

Until the Wind Tribal people could not retreat, more than 2,400 people were surrounded by 700 Xia soldiers in the central open space of the Wind Tribe's residence, the middle area was pregnant women and children who could not participate in the battle, and the peripheral were those who could participate in the battle, and the number of Wind tribesmen who could still participate in the battle was less than three hundred and fifty.

Lu Zhe motioned to the herdsmen, and the herdsmen immediately continued to persuade the Wind Tribe tribesmen in their half-baked Wind Tribe language, and almost all the high-ranking members of the Wind Tribe were dead, and there was no one who could represent the opinions of all the Wind Tribe people.

The stalemate between the two sides did not last long, as several women from the black wolf tribe threw down the weapons in their hands, as if a chain reaction, everyone threw down their weapons and surrendered.

The battle is finally over.

"Take away all the weapons on the ground, let them take their children with them, and tell them that they are not allowed to escape, and if they dare to escape, they will be killed directly."

"The cavalry took a few men to gather the cattle, horses and sheep, these are our trophies."

"You two go back and want the city lord to report on the battle situation, and we will leave for the city tomorrow morning."

Lu Zhe and Mu Shi discussed, and immediately issued several orders, nearly 700 soldiers immediately dispersed, those who sent letters sent letters, those who sent sentry posts, those who collected cattle, horses and sheep collected cattle, horses and sheep, and the number of people counted was in order.

The herdsmen did not find their wives and children in the crowd, and after asking familiar people, they ran to the round tent where their family lived in a panic, and finally found a shivering large and three small people covered with animal skins in the corner of the round tent.

The wife and three children were injured, but they were only external injuries, and the herders were relieved.

"We are about to join a new tribe that is more powerful than the Wind Tribe and the Black Wolf Tribe . The herdsman said to his wife.

The wife squeezed out some smiles on her face and comforted her husband: "As long as our family is not separated, we can go anywhere." ”

"Well, our family will never be separated." The herdsmen held their wives and three children in their arms.

The herdsman is afraid that after joining the new tribe, he will be the same as if he joined the wind tribe before, hoping that everything will not be like this, he just wants his family to live well.

Halfway through the afternoon, the two cavalrymen who delivered the message returned to the city and reported the battle situation to the city lord Hunan.

"Lord of the city, our army has successfully annihilated the enemy tribe, only seventeen people escaped, more than two thousand prisoners, tens of thousands of cattle, horses and sheep, three of our people were killed in the battle, and another twenty-one people were wounded, all of them were slightly injured."

The warriors of the Xia Kingdom were all wearing leather armor, and they could effectively resist the arrows shot by the Feng tribesmen, and the three people who died in the battle were all killed by the enemy's arrows in the face or neck, and there was nothing to cover these two places.

The injured people are mainly injured in the arms and legs, after all, leather armor cannot cover all parts of the body.

"It's good to win, it's good to win." Hu Nan muttered twice, and in his mind he had already imagined that the cavalry troops and chariot troops would return with a large number of prisoners, cattle, horses, sheep, and animal skins.

After the two cavalry generals reported to Hu Nan, they left the city with a letter from Hu Nan to Lu Zhe and Mu Shi and some seasonings for cooking, which Mu Shi told the two to bring.

It was almost after dark that the two of them returned to the Feng tribe's residence that had been captured, and by this time Lu Zhe and Mu Shi had already led the warriors to take care of most of the things, and when they had spent the night, they could leave for Chucheng tomorrow morning.

At dinner, Lu Zhe and Mu Shi had the luxury of handling the cattle that were shot on the battlefield and roasting them.

The taste of beef ranks among the top among the various domestic animals domesticated in the Xia Kingdom, but cattle are very valuable livestock in the Xia Kingdom, and they almost do not slaughter cattle for food to eat, but today they can be allowed to eat beef.

Everyone ate roast beef, talked about today's battle, and thought about what credit they could make and how much reward they would get.

Some young warriors talked about the women in the captives, this time capturing so many women, the meritorious soldiers should be able to get women as a reward, they should find them first, and then take them away directly.

The Xia soldiers are eating dinner, and the captives are also eating dinner, unlike the Xia soldiers who talk and laugh, the captives don't know what their future fate will be, and they don't want to eat the food in front of them, only those children who are not yet ignorant eat happily after tasting the roast beef with seasonings.

At night, Lu Zhe divided all the fighters into two waves, one for the first half of the night and the other for the second half of the night.

Tonight is the most dangerous time, on the one hand, to beware of the enemy's attack, on the other hand, to beware of the prisoners' riots, as long as you have passed the night, you will set out tomorrow morning, and you will be able to return to the city by evening at the latest, and when you arrive in the city, you will not need to worry about anything else.

Lu Zhe's worries were unnecessary, and the night passed, and the camp was quiet inside and outside, with no enemy attacking, and no prisoners rioting.

I don't know the situation when the foreign enemy is coming, after all, the Xia Kingdom doesn't have much exploration of the grassland, and I don't know the various nomadic tribe branches.

The possibility of a captive riot is very low, they did not mistreat the captives, and the daytime battle made the captives understand the horror of the Xia warriors, and in the face of an enemy who could not be defeated, the captives also extinguished the idea of running away or rioting.

After a delicious roast beef breakfast, Lu Zhe and Mu Shi commanded the soldiers to prepare to return to the city, in which the herdsmen played a very big role, Lu Zhe told some things to the herdsmen, and then the herdsmen told all the captives in the half-baked wind tribal language and the very proficient black wolf tribal language.

A canton's cavalry and the same number of women drove tens of thousands of cattle, horses and sheep in front, followed by a large herd of horses connected by ropes, with captives sitting on horseback, adults and children riding on the same horse, and a large herd of cattle and horses carrying large bundles of animal skins, chariot troops on the left and right, a cavalry unit in the rear, and a cavalry unit in the rear, and a cavalry in the tun moving freely.
