The grassland was littered with more than 200 fallen cows, a few fallen horses, and a few fallen people.

After counting the results of the battle, several centurions happily came to report to the forest traces. In addition to killing more than 200 cows, they also caught more than a dozen calves with a flying line. Lin Ji is the most fond of all kinds of animal cubs, and this is worthy of their credit.

Lin Ji listened to the report, and his face was black and he almost wanted to whip people: "Just killed a few cows, killed four people, injured more than 20 people, and put more than 30 horses in it, do you still have a smile?" ”

The process of killing the cattle was chaotic and tragic, and it was really a brutal battle. Proportionally speaking, this result was a complete victory. In this era, eating meat is a life. So most people don't think it's a big deal to kill 200 bison and kill a few people and hurt a few.

The others thought it was nothing, and the three centurions who came out with Lin Ji were also like this, which made Lin Ji a little disappointed. The people of Chaolin City went out to hunt, and they had long ceased to be dead. Apparently, these centurions also did not consider these "Mongols" as their own.

Of course, that's not the point. The focus is on their tactics.

"What are you riding? It's a horse! Not an elephant! When you practiced rushing into battle, did you rush like this? Can horses and elephants be compared? I have repeatedly told you about the advantages of horses, the advantages of horses, have you ever thought about how to use the advantages of horses and use the things you have trained in practice? …… Forget it, let people go back and inform the tribesmen to come and carry the meat. Let's go back and summarize these nights. ”

The forest trail roared like a lion, and he couldn't swallow this group of fools in one gulp, and pulled them out to become smarter. However, thinking that this was the first time to come out to fight, these people inevitably got carried away, and Lin Ji suppressed his anger halfway, preparing to go back and clean up these guys.

The elephant that Little White was riding was carried far away by the crazy oxen, and there were signs of escape, and he had to help chase it back. Otherwise, Xiaobai is estimated to chase a tendon to Siberia.

Seeing Lin Ji riding a white horse and running away with a gust of wind, the three centurions shrank their necks and looked at each other: "If you don't kill a cow like this, how should we kill it?" ”

"Direct hedging is the tactics of the elephant array, and we are outflanking from the periphery, killing in a roundabout way."

"It's just a cow."

"It's dead."

A few people lamented for a while, and arranged for someone to go back to the tribe to inform the people to carry the beef, and after a short rest on their side, they began to peel the skin and extract the meat.

More than 200 cows can get a lot of meat, skin, tendons, etc., and it takes thousands of people to carry them. Bayang, who got the news, brought the rest of the men and rode over on horseback, and naturally carried the cattle back with bones.

This beef is well processed and can be eaten for more than a month with grain. Horns and tendons can be used to make bows and arrows. Cowhide can be used to make tents, belts, saddles, etc. In addition to boiling soup and eating bone marrow, beef bones can also be polished to make throwing short spears. Anyway, Lin Ji was reluctant to use iron to make short spears and throw them everywhere.

It was an unprecedented harvest that made the entire Mongolian tribe rejoice.

No matter what tribe it is, they have never seen so much prey before. Even if they trampled so many beasts to death when they encountered a herd of horses chasing them on the grassland, they would not be able to take them for themselves and carry them back.

The abundant harvest at this time made them finally realize how powerful the newly formed Mongolian tribe really was, what was the meaning of what the forest trails made them do, and where were the benefits brought by the horses.

For the first time, most people realized the change in their identity and were proud to have become Mongols.

"We're just one tribe of all the king's tribes."

"I don't know what the other tribes of the king are like, can they hunt so much prey every day? Never get enough food? ”

The women were handling beef or cowhides, talking yearningly. The children gathered around each barbecue fire, and while the adults were not paying attention, they kept stuffing meat into their stomachs, and their stomachs had already begun to bulge, and they had no intention of stopping.

Unlike the joy of the women and children, the three centurions and the thirty centurions who went out on the hunt today were so sad that they wanted to cry. When they returned, they made a brief summary of the battle, and then began to run in circles up and down the hill under the watchful eye of the whole tribe.

It's hard enough to run up and down the mountain, and it's really uncomfortable to be watched by the whole tribe.

After finishing the specified number of laps, the three centurions had to say the reason for their punishment at the meeting of the leaders: "We are light cavalry, facing more enemies than us, and we cannot collide directly...... The lesson of blood and tears, everyone must remember, if anyone makes the same mistake next time, the king said that he would beat the board and beat him with his bare buttocks. ”

The crowd laughed, and the whole tribe was filled with joy.

Lin Ji by the firelight looked at the battle summary meeting of the leaders, but his eyes were not enthusiastic. Suo cowered in the shadows beside Lin Ji, and counted his black fingers with his newly learned arithmetic: "It's been twenty-two days since I heard from him at all." ”

These words were all said in a Chinese accent, because he had learned this sentence.

He was talking about the old man in Yuyuan.

In the past 22 days, there has not been a tribe that believes in the gods and horses to vote, so there is naturally no way to know the whereabouts of the old man in Youyuan. This is not normal, so Suo seems to be full of worry.

Lin Ji looked at the grassland in the distance and said, "The worst is the worst, we may have to speed up the progress a little more." ”

If Lin Ji's gaze could travel thousands of miles and go back a little longer, he would see that a few days ago, the old man's broken head had been smashed into a small river in the grassland. A man with a red fox tail tied around his waist reached into the river, picked up the steel knife specially equipped for the old man by Lin Ji, and slashed at the old man's head, splashing everywhere.

Expanding his horizon, the small river of the steppe was already stained red with blood, and the old man's companions and some of the horses were lying not far away. Dozens of men with foxes with foxes of various colors tied behind their waists are scooping up various loot from all over the place.

Soon after, they put together steel knives, wooden bows, salt pots, rattan hats, straw sandals, broken lanterns, etc., and took turns looking through them, making a sound of amazement.

"We've divided these, haven't we?" Someone said greedily. Others are also eager to take the plunge.

"Roar!" The man with the red fox's tail roared at everyone, glaring at everyone: "The head of the wolf clan in this disaster, we haven't contributed a little yet, these must be dedicated to Hu Xiao, and no one can have other thoughts." ”

As he spoke, he turned his gaze to a young man and said, "Woo Lie, you threw your tail in this operation, pretended to be sick and stayed in their team, left us a mark, and let them eat poison, the credit is the greatest, these things are brought by you and handed over to Hu Xiao, none of them can be missing, do you understand?" ”

The man with the red fox's tail was the leader Mao Sheng, and he made a decision, and no one dared to object.

"Hmm!" The young man nodded solemnly, took the leather and packed it up, and ran north with a few people.

Others were not willing to say: "We fight, is there nothing to gain?" ”

Mao Sheng said: "Let's divide the horses." Eat the dead, and bring it back alive. ”

The others looked at Mao Sheng with a resentful look in their eyes. Comparatively speaking, this is the least valuable loot. Horses, the whole steppe is everywhere. There aren't many steel knives that can cut your neck with a single slash.

"You want something else?" Mao Sheng saw that Wu Lie was walking away, and squinted at everyone: "Then do you dare to throw your own tail, hide your identity, and learn Wu Lie?" I can get each of you to have a copy of what you just had. ”

Everyone's eyes showed a fine light, and they secretly admired their leader one by one. It's not that he isn't greedy, he thinks that there are few things just now, so he can't look down on them. is worthy of being a leader, and the degree of greed is more powerful than theirs.

"So what do we do?" Tails or something, just a symbol of tribal status, they don't have any pressure to throw it. It's a big deal, next time I go back to the tribe to hunt another one.

Mao Sheng said: "I heard Woo Lie say that these people are looking for horse guards to go to the shepherds. As long as they are people who believe in the gods, they will ask for it. When you get there, everybody will have a copy of these things. There will also be one person who has a horse. We can pretend that we were called by these people. Whereafter, you can get more than that. Perhaps we could have taken a greater credit for this disaster. ”

The fox clan is not good at fighting, and Mao Sheng feels that since the advantages of his tribe's people are not on the battlefield, he should give full play to his strengths and make enough contributions before the war starts. In this way, they will not only be able to get these elite weapons first, but they will also change the status of the fox clan on the grassland because of these merits. Even if one person takes a horse, it will be enough to eat for a long time.

The people of the fox clan were drooling, and they felt as if they had already taken all the benefits into their arms. So one by one, they tore off their fox tails and went to the mountains south of the grassland.

Mao Sheng stopped everyone: "We can't go like this yet." I've heard that other tribes are whole tribes. We should also bring some women and children. I've heard that the man from the south who tamed the horse also liked a horse keeper woman. Our woman will definitely be able to take him faster. So, we still have to go back to the tribe first. ”

Thinking of the charming posture of the women of their tribe, many people drooled again. Deng Shi felt that Mao Sheng's arrangement was even more secure.

The fox clan will dominate the grassland!

The time spanned a few days, and it was a few days after the bull hunt. At the foot of Juying Slope, the warriors of the Mongol tribes began various forms of confrontation tactics. Lin Ji's goal is that no matter what kind of situation they encounter, these people must have the certainty to deal with it, and they cannot be defeated in a fight.

It was also in the evening of this day that Lin Ji got the news of the old man Youyuan. A tribe from the steppes who professed to believe in the gods came here and told him, "They are going north." Say go and reach out to more tribes. ”

For this tribe that has been voting for the first time in a month, Suo Yi is naturally happy. This means that the old man is fine. After all, the plan is progressing smoothly.

However, Lin Xi saw that there were more men and fewer women in this tribe, and the children were all infants, so he had some doubts in his heart: "Did they tell you which tribes they went to before they met you?" ”

The person on the other side was silent for a moment, as if in deep thought. This is a proposition, because before the fox clan killed the old man, the fox clan had been tracking them on the grassland. So that they simply do not have the opportunity to reach more tribes. And before that, who knows?

Seeing that the scene was about to reach a stalemate, a young woman quickly replied with a smile: "Before they met us, they said that they had walked on the grassland for a long time and had not met any tribes. ”

The woman who spoke had red lips and white teeth, and smiled beautifully. Upon closer inspection, Lin Ji also found that her loose animal skin was also clean, and the skin under the animal skin also appeared white. While speaking, the woman was still bending her waist slightly, and Lin Ji had already heard Chen Li behind him secretly swallowing saliva.

Lin Ji, who hadn't touched a woman for a long time, actually couldn't move his eyes. He doesn't have high requirements for women in this era, it looks pleasing to the eye, and it's okay to be clean. And the woman in front of him undoubtedly fits his requirements very well.

Suo Yi heard that there was no problem with the woman's answer, and when he saw that Lin Ji's expression was not quite right when he looked at the woman, he immediately became wary and entertained these people.

These people are quite good at dealing with people, and they can sing and dance around the campfire, which attracts everyone to watch. The women among them are even more enchanting and abnormal, which attracts many young people to pursue them unpassionately, and the camp at the bottom of the mountain looks unrestrained and joyful.

The moonlight was bright, and the ground was silver-plated.

"You're going to give birth in two months, right?" Lin Ji sat on the hillside, looking at the moon, and at the corn with bulging ears around him, silently counting the time.

It's July, and Hu Yi'er should be more than two months away. He has been out for nearly five months, but it seems that he can't go back in time to go back before Hu Yi'er gives birth.

couldn't see his child for the first time in time, and he couldn't stay by Hu Yi'er's side, he was a little melancholy when he thought about it.

According to the development of the situation here, it may be difficult for him to determine the return date. Thinking about it like this makes me even more depressed.

Bayang came back from the bottom of the mountain, handed a smooth animal skin to the forest trail and said, "The best-looking woman gave it to you." ”

It was lively under the mountain, and he couldn't help but take a look, but it was with a sudden appearance. Suddenly, Gege saw those women who were charming, and didn't let Bayang see more, so Bayang accompanied her back again. However, when he left, he was still pulled by someone, but he was asked to send something to Lin Ji.

To be honest, Bayang felt that woman was really good. According to his past temperament, he would have spent tonight with her anyway. But after listening to Lin Ji's statement, after guarding himself for Suddenge, although he felt pity, this feeling of paying for his lover made him feel interesting.

In the evening, Lin Ji saw the woman's demeanor, and he also saw it. At this time, he wanted to see how Lin Ji would choose. Behind Bayang, Su Erge also looked at Lin Ji with bright eyes, wanting to see how the king she admired had withstood the test of love.

Although she decided to stay with Bayang, this did not affect her worship of Lin Ji.

Lin Ji took this smooth animal skin, and naturally recognized who it was, he smiled and said to the people around him: "The beauty is intentional, I can't be ruthless." So take two lanterns and lead her into my room. ”

Bayang opened his mouth slightly. Then, he received a sudden critical attack from behind him: "Men are all big **!" ”

Suddenly, Ge was extremely disappointed and ran away from the stockade in anger.
