Chapter 81: The Sorrow of the Barbarians

After the collision of the primary civilization and absolute barbarism of the Hami Kingdom, the outcome is unpredictable. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Tie Xinyuan knew that people's willpower would burst out with extremely terrifying power under certain circumstances, but he didn't expect that the first time he saw this kind of power, it appeared in the body of a barbarian.

A barbarian would rather give his life to create an opportunity for his companions to kill the enemy, which shows that this group of barbarians is very accustomed and skilled in the division of labor and cooperation to achieve goals.

This also shows that this group of barbarians comes from a highly united ethnic group.

This is not a good thing for Hami, under normal circumstances, such a group of barbarians with a number of 10,000 people, they will automatically give birth to a powerful kingdom.

Tie Xinyuan still remembers the saying that the Jurchens are not satisfied with ten thousand, and they are invincible.

This sentence is not casual nonsense, but very reasonable, those barbarians have not yet gotten rid of their ignorant thinking, they know deeply that there is no way to face the harsh nature with personal strength, let alone survive in the harsh natural environment.

Therefore, in their lives, the interests of the community are more important than everything else, including the lives of individuals, and they will not spare their lives if the sacrifice of their lives can ensure the survival of the community.

Such a group is inherently a well-organized army, and once armed, it will have few opponents.

Ah, this time it's weird.

Why did the barbarians get entangled with the Hami army? It's very bad for them.

This was confirmed by the news from the front, and the great encirclement of the Hami army was being formed, and in only two days, the retreat of these barbarians to the north could be completely stopped.

I can't figure out why this happened, the whole incident is like a thief who has already succeeded in falling into a dog at the last moment of his escape.

Meng Yuanzhi and Leng Ping, the army in Wang Xuan's hands wanted to swallow these iron heart sources in one gulp, temporarily put aside the idea of exploring this reason, and stayed in the wind and snow on the Tianshan North Road, waiting for the reinforcements to be sent over by the sleigh wave after wave.

It is a miracle in itself to cross the snow-covered Tianshan Road in winter, and the large sleds like giant beasts in the wilderness will be extremely fast after the snow has been crushed and leveled.

The sleigh was driven by a horse standing on the sleigh and turning around the wheel, and the sleigh ran as fast as it went, one after the other, at a similar pace, if not faster, than on foot.

Tie Er replaced Tie Si to guard Tianshan City, and Tie Si led the men and horses of his headquarters to reinforce Meng Yuanzhi before Tie Xinyuan.

With a suspicious Iron Heart Source, he also arrived at the Black Mountain Pass two days later.

Heavy snow covered the moor, revealing only a few withered yellow weeds shivering in the north wind.

Meng Yuanzhi stood on the wasteland, looking coldly at the mountain col not far away, and a few green smoke in the mountain col had just stretched out of the mountain col and was blown away by the cold wind.

There was plenty of water in the Black Mountain area, even if the sky was clear, there seemed to be ice slag falling from the sky, and after a while, the scarred armor under Meng Yuanzhi's cloak was covered with a thin layer of ice.

"General, the barbarians will not be able to escape from our hands this time." Leng Ping flashed out from behind Meng Yuanzhi and said with a smile.

Meng Yuanzhi continued to look at the mountain col and said lightly: "Sixteen days ago, I also said this to the king.

Let me ask you, have you found any trace of General White Horse and Jerejm? ”

Leng Ping arched his hand in embarrassment: "The scouts have chased out for more than two hundred miles, and there is still no trace of General Baima and Yelujing. ”

Meng Yuanzhi turned around sharply and looked at Leng Ping and said, "Since you haven't found it, why are you still here?" ”

Leng Ping opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say a word, and after giving his hand, he continued to send people to find the disappeared Khitans.

Wang Dayong, who wore a fur hat and fur fur and dressed himself like a bear, said with a smile: "Handsome, in the cold weather, the tracking range of two hundred miles of scouts is already the limit.

In a few hours, the king will come, so let's listen to what the king has to say, and it's not too late for us to make plans. ”

Meng Yuanzhi was very strict with the generals, but he had great respect for Wenchen like Wang Dayong, and said with a wry smile: "I was defeated, I almost lost my teacher and humiliated the country, and I have no shame to see the king." ”

Wang Dayong sighed and said: "The marshal doesn't have to blame himself, the battle damage of the baggage battalion is something none of us expected."

To say that the military commander who has the responsibility to humble himself is the culprit, after all, the baggage battalion is a subordinate subordinate.

Who would have thought that on such a day when the water was dripping into ice, there would be someone who could bury themselves in the ice and snow for two hours.

Afterwards, the lowly also led people to re-examine the battlefield, and the commander did not know that the barbarians who could jump out of the snowdrift and attack the baggage camp were only a few after all, and there were many more barbarians who were frozen to death in the ice and snow.

Now, the marshal has trapped these damned barbarians in the Black Mountain Pass, they have no food and grass inside, no reinforcements outside, and if they are besieged for a few more days, this severe cold can kill them all.

Dashuai, don't be impatient, in two days, we will take revenge. ”

"General White Horse and Yelujing have not been found, how can they be considered complete, you and I both know very well that these barbarians are just a group of brainless weapons, and General White Horse and Yelujing are the ones who use these weapons.

If we don't do things thoroughly, the king will risk crossing the Tianshan Road to come to us to supervise the battle. ”

"Adventure?"

Meng Yuanzhi smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Dayong is a scholar, I don't know how terrible it is to stuff ice and snow on the side, there are high mountains on both sides of Tianshan Road, and the mountains are full of ice and snow, and those ice and snow are extremely unsolid, and the snow will roll down the slopes of the mountains if there is a slight movement."

The king's brigade passed through the valley, and the people shouted and the horses barked, and if one was not safe, a strange disaster would occur. ”

Wang Dayong was stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled: "The king is unparalleled in his intelligence, such a small problem can't stop him, isn't this safe to come?"

It was a matter of great importance that the marshal should first find out why these barbarians had suddenly stopped, and why General White Horse and Yelujing had disappeared without a trace overnight, and that the king would definitely inquire after his arrival. ”

Meng Yuanzhi shook his head and said, "No need, it's better to leave this problem to the king to solve." ”

Just as the two were talking, a team of scouts came to Meng Yuanzhi's side, and the knight led by him knelt down on one knee and said, "General Qiqi, a messenger from the barbarians has come." ”

Meng Yuanzhi said suspiciously: "How do you know that it is a barbarian messenger who has come, can you understand the words of the Rus?" ”

The leader of the scouts hurriedly said: "I don't understand the language of the Rus, but I can understand the Khitan language, an old Rus man lying on a stretcher, speaks the Khitan language, he said that he is the patriarch of the Rus people, Mosilev. Oleg. ”

Meng Yuanzhi and Wang Dayong glanced at each other, and said in unison: "Spread the Rus patriarch to the big tent." ”

Half an hour later, four majestic Rus' men walked into Meng Yuanzhi's Chinese army tent with a stretcher full of grief and indignation.

The military doctor immediately stepped forward, and after carefully examining the big man on the stretcher, he whispered to Meng Yuan: "Firearm wounds, fire poison into the bones, and the ulcer is frostbitten again, and there is no help." ”

Meng Yuan came straight to Oleg's side, looked condescendingly at the tattered barbarian at his feet, and said in a deep voice: "You are the patriarch of the Rus' people? ”

The leader of the scouts who knew Khitan dialect repeated Meng Yuanzhi's question.

Oleg opened his swollen mouth and said weakly: "I am the patriarch of the Rus, Mosilev. Oleg. “

"Where are the white horses and Jerejm?"

Oleg heard Meng Yuan ask Bai Ma and Yelujing directly, and his weak body trembled for a while before he said indifferently: "They have already left, they have already left five days ago, and they have returned to Khitan along the Black Mountain Road." ”

"You've been left behind? Why? ”

Oleg turned his head to look at the few gunpowder bullets hanging on the wall of Meng Yuanzhi's big tent, and tears slowly flowed out......

"What?" After listening to Meng Yuanzhi's narration, Tie Xinyuan, who arrived in a hurry, couldn't close his mouth in surprise.

Meng Yuanzhi smiled bitterly: "That's it, the barbarians snatched our gunpowder bombs and oil bombs, and they won't use them, so they just followed the example of our soldiers and lit the fuse of the oil bombs, and when they saw the sparks splashing, they forgot to throw them out when they were curious......"

Wang Dayong, who was also in the big tent, was already out of breath with laughter, but Tie Xinyuan was relatively much calmer.

The barbarians had suffered enough losses in the process of fighting Meng Yuanzhi, and after getting the gunpowder bullets and oil bombs, they naturally had to fiddle with them...... It is not surprising that such a disaster occurred.

Not to mention the barbarians, even the Great Song people, who had a deep understanding of gunpowder, often inadvertently burst gunpowder, and the casualties were no less than these barbarians.

The only stupid thing the barbarians did was that their one-armed hero, Okafi, had to test the gunpowder and oil bombs in the place where the chiefs gathered.

More than fifty gunpowder bullets, what kind of scene was it after more than a dozen gunpowder bullets were detonated, Tie Xinyuan could imagine that Oleg survived, it was a miracle.

More than 9,000 barbarians fought hard with Meng Yuanzhi for two months, and more than half of their troops had already been reduced, and most of the barbarians were severely frostbitten by the severe cold, and after the gunpowder bomb exploded, the last group of elites of the barbarians were also blown up by this strong explosion.

In this situation, General White Horse and Ye Lujing immediately made a decision, discarded these barbarians who were no longer of much use at the first time, and quickly left the battlefield with the remaining gunpowder and oil bombs they had captured.

As long as they can safely return those gunpowder bombs and oil bombs to the Khitan Kingdom, they think that they have not failed.

After all, the main force attacking Hami was Xiao Xiaomu and not them, and according to the strategic principle, the barbarians had already attracted a large number of troops from Hami and dragged them to the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains for more than two months.

As far as they were concerned, the task was accomplished, and as for the damage to some Rus, neither General White Horse nor Jerejin thought it was a big deal.
