Chapter 64: Raiding the Grasslands
"Why is there martial law in Shuofang? Could it be that the Turks are coming again? "The people who originally wanted to get out of Shuofang City suddenly saw Shuofang martial law and couldn't help but panic a little.
"Everyone, please be quiet," a team called out from a carriage.
"Fathers and fellow villagers, don't panic, the Turks didn't fight, even if they called, we will protect you, there are Turkic spies who have infiltrated the city, intending to assassinate the governor and deputy governor, and then the whole city is under martial law, and martial law will be lifted in the afternoon, everyone rest assured" The team is loudly comforting everyone: Of course, this is what Zhang Gongjin and Feng Daiwen discussed, first martial law for half a day, so as not to leak the news, and after half a day, even if someone reports the news, it will be too late to lift the blockade, and at the same time, this scene is staged at the four city gates of Shuofang.
", what a good Governor was assassinated by someone, and if he was caught, he would definitely be killed," roared an old man who was picking up a fire:
"Yes, yes, I heard that the Governor's Office ordered all children to go to school, and it is said that food is also provided," said another of them.
"Yes, recruiting workers is to repair the college, the Governor's Mansion said that if you pay for it, you will pay for it, and you will eat twice a day and have money to take such a good thing there was before!!" An old man selling bamboo baskets next to him also helped on the side:
"If you want me to say, what kind of books does the girl read, help the family do some work, and it's not someone else's to marry when she's older," the old man sighed,
"Haha, you old man is so unreasonable, if you have a boy in your family, would you be willing to marry a literate person for him or not" A businessman-like man teased on the side:
The old man instantly turned red and had nothing to say, and before he knew it, everyone was chatting and it was 3 upstairs,,, and no one was worried about martial law in the whole city.
At this time, Feng Daiwen was leading people to gallop on the grassland, and after five days of exploration, it was found that there were currently eight small tribes in the Shuofang grassland, and some individual herdsmen's homes. Although it is still in the Shuofang grassland, but they are all a day's journey away from Shuofang, this time Shuofang has a total of 9,000 elite soldiers, divided into three teams to encircle and suppress the Turkic tribes.
The first route was Li Zhengbao, Feng Daihuo led people to encircle and suppress from west to east, and the second route was Xi Junmai, and Xin Lu'er led the encirclement and suppression from east to west, blocking the Turks in the middle.
The third route was led by Feng Daiwen himself, and the first two roads set off in the middle of the night, Feng Daiwen waited until the morning to set off, striving to wrap the Turks round, and the three roads were all one person and two horses, marching at high speed, of course, leaving no life along the way.
Chen Xiong followed Feng Daiwen's side, Chen Hu took 5,000 soldiers and horses behind and slowly followed the route of the front army to collect prisoners, cattle and sheep, and the route of the army was set before the battle.
The next day, at noon,
"General, the Turkic tribe was found in front, and it was a small tribe of more than two thousand people" Tanma quickly ran back to Feng Daiwen to:
"Change horses, prepare for battle," Feng Daiwen looked at the few cooking smoke rising in front of him, and secretly said to himself, The Turks should be eating.
The cavalry behind him were silently sorting out their weapons and armor, Feng Daiwen didn't speak, just raised his right hand and waved it hard, riding his horse forward, 3000 cavalry, 300 iron guards followed the horse and began to trot,
Soon the tent of the Turks appeared in front of him, Feng Daiwen slapped the horse's buttocks, and the mount suddenly accelerated,,,
The Turks heard the sound of the horses and walked out of the tents, and when they saw the cavalry rushing in the distance, they panicked and ran out, some looking for horses, and some ran back to the tents to take out their weapons.
It's closer, it's closer, Feng Daiwen can already see clearly what many Turks are shouting in their mouths while running,,,
"Release the arrow", Feng Daiwen shouted and pulled the crossbow arrow in his hand,
I saw arrows flying all over the sky, pouring down, and in an instant, a large number of Turks fell to the ground and wailed.
"Fence up", Feng Daiwen ordered loudly, and 3,300 people were divided into two groups to surround the Turkic tribes,
"Surrender and don't kill, kneel and don't kill" The people who knew Turkic dialect who had long been instructed shouted in Turkic dialect,
The Turks were at a loss, and they were so frightened that they all hid together, looking at the wailing tribesmen on the ground.
With two "booms", Feng Daiwen shot two Turks with bows and arrows in their hands, and shouted, "Kill those with bows and arrows." ”
"Uhh,,,h
The Turks collapsed, and there were many women and children in their tribes, and when they saw so many people and children die, the women wept with fright.
"Don't kill, don't kill, don't kill,,, I surrender, I surrender" Someone kept shouting in Turkic and dropped the weapon in his hand, and the waist knife at his waist knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, and the others saw that they hurriedly dropped their weapons and knelt there with their wives and children,
A guard ,,, a cavalry rushed in, and when they saw that they were still standing, the one with the weapon in their hands was an arrow,,,,。
It was not long before it was completely controlled, and according to the prior order, the Turks, both young and old, all those who had belts pulled out their belts and tied their hands, and those who did not have to bring them used ropes, Feng Daiwen ordered to cook and rest,
"General, more than 50 Han Chinese have been found," Chen Xiong came to report.
"Han Chinese? Take me over and have a look," Feng Daiwen said in surprise.
"You're from there?" Feng Daiwen followed Chen Xiong to see a group of unclothed people, and understood how these people came here.
"General, we are basically people from the vicinity of Shuofang, some of us are from Guannei, and we have all been captured by the Turks over the years," said an older man. These are all young and strong, after all, the old people and women basically don't live long, but now they can only be said to be green, not strong, because the strongest ones are all ribs-like,
"Feng Daiwen, the Marquis of the Tang Dynasty, will take you home when the battle is over" Feng Daiwen said sadly to the crowd: and then told them to find their own Turkic clothes to change into, and then ask them to go to dinner together,。。。 After the meal, Feng Daiwen left 100 people to guard the prisoners with 50 rescued Han Chinese with Turkic weapons and equipment, waited for the team behind, and set off again without counting and receiving the goods,,,,
It wasn't until ten minutes of sunset that I found a tribe of about the same size,,, this tribe surrendered when it saw the cavalry rushing towards it without any intention of fighting, maybe it was because it knew that it couldn't be defeated, so Feng Daiwen stayed in this camp with his team that night,,,,
The other two roads are much bloodier, because they ran farther away, some were border troops, and they were almost surrendering in order to encircle, plus there were two killing gods, Xi Junmai and Feng Daihuo,
Both of them are the kind of Turks who are excited as soon as they go to the battlefield, go up as soon as they start killing, and kill them directly, and they tremble when they see the two of them, even Li Zhengbao and Xin Lu'er are stunned when they see both of them, and the Turks don't dare to run without taking care of them, for fear of being smashed into meat cakes.
It's really too bloody for the two of them to kill people Xi Jun bought a hammer down, either into a meat pie, or even people and horses into meat sauce, Feng Daihuo is almost a stick in the past, there is no complete person, but he likes to knock his head, some of his heads are beaten into the chest, and Feng Daihuo wears a full-body armor, beast-faced helmet, only his eyes are outside, it looks terrifying, and he is privately called a demon by the Turks,
Feng Daiwen's rattan armor soldiers themselves are a lot of sultry and slang people, they are used to drawing something on their faces, there are all kinds of strange things, after the fight, they took off the peep and were seen by the Turks, and later many Turks called the demon army when they saw the earthy yellow rattan armor soldiers,,, of course, this is a later story,,,
