Liu Tang convened an emergency military meeting and reported the matter, and when he heard that thousands of yaks and dozens of people wearing wolf head masks had come, everyone was puzzled.

Liu Tang said: "Urge the wild, immediately pass on my order, all farms and tribes will enter a state of emergency, and Zhuang Ding will wait for him." ”

"Yes." After urging Ye to finish speaking, he went to arrange for the herald to pass the order.

Liu Tang asked Yan Kuohai: "What tribe in the north will play the yak array, have you ever heard of it?" ”

Yan Kuohai said: "If it is said that it is like to use yak to rush into battle, it must not be the black wolf tribe, although the black wolf tribe also herds horses and sheep, but this tribe is lazy and likes to rob the most, so they will not have the leisure to raise thousands of yak cows, I guess it must be the barbarian cattle tribe." ”

Lu Fang said: "Don't care which tribe he belongs to, I'm afraid that the ones who come are not good and the good ones don't come, a vicious battle is inevitable, and how to deal with the yak formation is an important issue." ”

Liu Tang said: "Adjust a hundred lying bull cannons, and the artillery will follow the cavalry over and blow up this group of brute bulls." ”

Wen Zhongrong shook his head: "Shelling cattle is a bit overkill, I remember Chao Tuanlian once said, what are the cows most afraid of, the cows are most afraid of the brick family, the brick family will brag and pull the gacha, as long as the brick family comes, the yak will definitely be caught, with this group of yaks, we can use it to cultivate the land." ”

Liu Tang said: "Time is urgent, Guo Sheng is still trapped in Dog Bear Ridge, so he immediately transferred 500 soldiers to build the barracks and pulled 100 carts of green bricks." In addition, the cavalry was dispatched in full force. The artillery with a hundred lying bull cannons, five hundred sword and shield men. Wen Zhongrong stayed behind, and the others all followed me to save people. ”

"Yes." Everyone responded and went to prepare.

In a moment, the soldiers who built the barracks prepared a hundred mule carts of green bricks, and the five hundred construction soldiers were all masons who played with bricks, which could be regarded as brick families. The artillery came with a full 300 people, and there were also 100 mules carrying shells, etc., Cui Ye was in charge of these two teams, and 500 sword and shield men were responsible for covering the artillery. Lu Fang led the cavalry of 450 cavalry, considering that he wanted to deal with the brute bull, and brought all the spears.

The group set off overnight, and the team of more than 2,000 people marched towards Dog Bear Ridge.

This road is quite far, seventy or eighty miles, it only arrived at dawn, Liu Tang rode a tall horse, holding a door board size of a simple knife in his hand, and looked ahead to see that the grassland in front of him was a mighty herd of cattle, and the strong yak cattle were grazing leisurely.

The wolf-headed cavalry soon discovered the enemy, this guy covered the sky with a banner, and the horses, mules, and carts were far away, and he was really extraordinary. But the wolf-headed cavalry is not afraid, one trick is fresh, and it eats all over the world. As soon as the whistle sounded, the yak began to be organized in formation, and the cattle gathered quickly, and the cattle roared constantly.

Liu Tang said: "Array." ”

The flag swayed, and five hundred sword and shield men lined up in front of the formation, hard shields, and bright machetes. In the middle, a hundred tiger squat guns were staggered and lined up, and the gunners were in place. Behind it were 500 construction soldiers and hundreds of mule carts pulling green bricks. On both flanks were cavalry led by Lü Fang.

Liu Tang said: "You can't fight in a daze, lest there be any misunderstanding, Yan Kuohai, come over and talk with me." ”

Immediately, Liu Tang brought more than ten cavalry and Yan Kuohai to the formation, and Yan Kuohai shouted and asked the other party to come over to negotiate. When asked, it was really the Barbarian Bull Tribe, the straight lady thief, and what kind of wolf head mask the Manniu Tribe was wearing.

Yan Kuohai said: "Is there any misunderstanding in this, let's not fight first when we collect our troops." ”

"There is no misunderstanding, we are just here to beat you, I heard that you have endless food and endless salt here." The leader of the Manniu tribe, Manniu Sheng, said.

Yan Kuohai said to Liu Tang: "There's no need to talk about it, this group of people is a cow, if you don't beat them hard, you don't know how powerful, if you defeat them, you will be obedient." ”

When the negotiations broke down, they immediately returned to their own positions. The bull people urged the yak array, and the huge hooves of thousands of yak cattle trampled on the earth, running with momentum like a rainbow, the earth was trembling, and the roar of the cow was also shocking. The sword and shield hand on Liu Tang's position did not move at all, and the shields were erected one by one.

It was getting closer and closer, the yak rushed to the front of the battle for more than 400 meters, Liu Tang waved the flag, the shield hand showed his hug, the lying ox cannon revealed the hideous barrel, and the gunner holding the torch lit the cannon.

Boom, boom, boom. Fifty shots were fired first, the smoke of gunpowder was filled, the hot iron sand hit the running herd, the yak was injured and fell to the ground, and the wild bull stepped on it behind, with many dead and wounded, and was afraid of the loud noise, and the yak slowly stopped.

Liu Tang saw that there was a door, and ordered the cannon to be fired, and the thunderous cannon blasted the yak at a loss, turned the direction and began to retreat.

The brick family chased the mule cart fiercely, followed the butt of the herd to hit the bricks, and the real big green bricks were four or five catties a piece, and it hurt to hit the cows. The bricks rained down, and the slow-running yak was smashed all over the bag. Some smashed their horns, some smashed their butts. There are also naughty soldiers who specialize in pulling gacha with hook and sickle, and the bull that hurts runs for his life.

Urging Ye left behind to be in charge of the sword and shield soldiers and artillery, Liu Tang, Lu Fang, Yan Kuohou and others pounced with cavalry, and what they wanted to catch was not a yak, but a barbarian chieftain.

There are more bull cavalry than expected, almost seventy or eighty, and they are also very powerful, all of them are masters with maces, but the gap in number is too big, the bow and arrow of the cavalry archers are very bad for the damage of the unarmored bull cavalry, and the bull cavalry lost more than a dozen horses and couldn't care about the yak at all, and they fled vigorously, and they were fleeing, when suddenly a team of cavalry rushed out of the front oblique stab, and it was none other than Guo Sheng's more than forty cavalry. First, there was a random arrow, and more than ten horses were overturned. Guo Sheng drew a halberd in the sky, and even picked up several maces, which shocked the might, and the brute bull rode a little scared.

The Manniu Cavalry was surrounded in the middle by ten times more cavalry, and the Manniu Chief was also bare-headed, turned over and dismounted and threw away his weapon, and knelt down in front of Liu Tang's horse.

Liu Tang asked Yan Kuohai: "What is he doing?" ”

Yan Kuohai said: "He is begging us to let them go, saying that they are also forced to be helpless." ”

The negotiation just now was still equal, but now the negotiation is different, Liu Tang asked people to confiscate their weapons and war horses, but they were not bound.

Liu Tang said: "Let's talk about it, why did you come to attack us." ”

The chief of the bull is a middle-aged man in his thirties, a man who looks five big and three thick, as strong as a cow, called Manniusheng, he is quite real, Manniusheng said: "We are forced to go south, and the north is too bad." The Black Wolf Tribe stole more than 5,000 cattle in the winter, and now there are about 4,000 cattle left in the entire tribe, as well as 500 people. I heard that there were Song people in Nanmian, and the grassland people thought that the Song people were weak and could be bullied, so we planned to rely on the yak formation to rob some property, and by the way, find a place with fertile water and grass here to graze and recuperate. ”

"What about the rest of your people?" Liu Tang asked.

Manniusheng didn't say anything this time, Liu Tang said: "It's better to be like this, you can settle down here, I will set aside a pasture for you, your tribe obeys the management of our Jeju regiment, and you only need to send one-tenth of the strong men to join the army, and at the same time pay one-tenth of the annual taxes." ”

Manniusheng said: "Taxes and fees are not a problem, the question is whether you can protect us, the black wolf tribe is a bandit who robs everywhere." ”

"These are not things for you to worry about, you just need to lead your tribe to raise cattle in peace, and the matter of dealing with the black wolf will be left to our army. Of course, if necessary, the tribes will also be invited to participate in the war. ”

"Okay, when I catch the Black Wolf Chieftain, I will definitely call me, and I will definitely stomp his eggs." ”

Manniusheng took Liu Tang and others to find the clansmen hiding in the mountain col, this Manniu tribe is indeed quite miserable, the whole clan is about 500 people, and the total number of strong men is about 100 people, the rest are women and children, there are few old people, and they died after escaping the middle hall.

Liu Tang promised to carve out a piece of grassland for them to graze cattle, and the Manniu people were very happy, but Manniusheng couldn't be happy, so the family broke the yak formation, and all the cattle in the tribe were the trophies of others.

The wild cow knelt down and said: "Can you give us back a part of the yak cow, otherwise we will have no way to live." The Bull Clan will never betray. ”

In this world, we only believe in strength, and any oath is bullshit.

Liu Tang said: "Let's wait a while and count the results." Now let's take your people and have lunch together. ”

The people on the grassland are used to fighting, and although more than 20 people have just died in the battle, everyone doesn't care much. Processed more than a dozen yaks killed by shelling, set up a cauldron under the Bear Ridge, and had a beef party.

Shandong is not allowed to kill cattle, this group of Jeju regimental training soldiers have not eaten beef for many years, this time they all threw off their cheeks to eat.

The big guy ate with a mouth full of oil, and the platoon commander in charge of counting the results of the battle counted the materials clearly, a total of 30 dead cattle and more than 200 injured cattle. There were about 3,500 other cattle on the move.

The brute bull looked at Liu Tang pitifully, not knowing how much Liu Tang would return back.

Liu Tang pouted, and Lu Fang and Guo Sheng on both sides also looked funny, and said in their hearts that this brute was all self-inflicted.

Liu Tang said: "That's it, I'll give you back 2,000 heads, and we'll keep the rest." But I won't let you suffer, I will send someone to help you reclaim 2,000 acres of land, teach you to plant Tianwang rice, and wait for the harvest of Tianwang to feed the cattle with corn, and the cattle eat grass too slowly. In addition, we will also provide 20,000 chicken seedlings for your tribe, and you can also graze chickens on the grass where you can graze cattle. ”

The brute cow was raw and painful, and he lost half of the cattle in a battle, and he didn't listen to what reclaimed land to grow Tianwang rice, thinking that it was just talking. This result is also good, after all, there are still 2,000 cows, but these 2,000 cows can no longer be damaged, and the brute cow is cheeky and asks for a hundred injured cows as food for most of the year. Liu Tang didn't do it too ruthlessly, and promised to fight for another batch of grain to give to them.
