Chapter 617 is overwhelming
In the early winter, the grassland is actually very cold.
The snow hasn't fallen yet, and the air is dry and cold.
There is no mountain to block it, and the wind is raging, and it is cold to the bone.
Under the night wind, it seemed that all living things had lost their life until the sun rose the next morning.
But it was under such a cold wind, under the dark sky, there was a long dragon-like procession, which was advancing rapidly in the night.
With the traitor as a guide, Li Yu's army marched no less than the day.
In the distance, a tribe appeared, and in the darkness of the night, there were only a few faint lights.
It's a big tribe!
The life of the steppe herdsmen is actually very difficult, and the cold weather means that they go to bed early at night and do not need to spend oil to light the lamp, so even the average wealthy family in the tribe has a dark home at night. Only the great nobles would light butter lamps all night.
And there are seven or eight lights here, which shows the size of this tribe.
This is the tribe of Yesang, the second brother of Yongdan.
Ye Sang, who has thick eyebrows and big eyes and a burly figure, is wrapped in a thick Tubo robe, sitting cross-legged on a coarse felt carpet, frowning and thinking about the next plan of action.
Although there is the support of Dong Tuo, the two clans have always had a grudge because of the competition for territory. Therefore, this kind of collusion is actually very unpopular. Ye Sang also understands this, but he must rely on external forces for now. Do you really think he is willing to surrender to Dong Tuo?
When he unifies the Yongdan Division, his wings are full, and his vitality is restored, he will definitely get rid of Dong Tuo. But this kind of plan can never be said, even if it is his dissatisfied subordinates, God knows if any of them are Dong Tuo's traitors.
In addition to the internal instability, he was also worried about the two sons of the eldest brother, who had already gone to the capital, although the whole thing had been promised by Dong Tuo, the chief minister, that he would handle it. But in case one of these two nephews can really get the official position of the whole thing, although this grassland is speaking with strength, but the name is not right, it will be a trouble after all.
And the eldest lady......
He always felt that his sister-in-law seemed to have something to rely on, but he didn't understand where her dependence came from. Otherwise, I will form an alliance with my second sister-in-law? Thinking of the second sister-in-law, Ye Sang's eyes narrowed slightly, that woman has her own tribe, and her strength is not weak, and she is only in her early thirties, in terms of appearance, she is still passable, it is better for me to marry her, with her power, I should be able to suppress my sister-in-law......
Ye Sang stroked his beard and thought gloomily, a sinister smile gradually appeared on his lips.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a faint vibration sound in the night, Ye Sang sat on a thick thick felt blanket, and wore a thick leather robe, and it was not very obvious.
However, there was a small mud stove beside him, the water in the pot was boiling, and there was a big bowl of tea on the edge of the stove next to him, and the water in the bowl was also rippling at this time, Ye Sang's eyes couldn't help but fix on the water in the bowl, and his eyes gradually sharpened.
At this time, the thick curtain of the felt bag was suddenly lifted, and a dry and cold wind wrapped a stout and burly man rolled in: "Master, the big thing is not good, less than ten miles away in the northeast, a large number of people and horses are advancing, about at least three thousand people!" ”
Ye Sang jumped up all of a sudden and shouted, "Quick! Meet the enemy with all your might! ”
There is no need to judge, in the middle of the night, a large number of people and horses arrived, and they must be friends and foes.
Under normal circumstances, there are never so many men and horses traveling at night, and even if there are really as a last resort, they must send light cavalry to fight along the way ahead, and those who dare to march like this are definitely the enemy. Even if it's not, killing it is in vain, that is the other party has violated the rules of survival on the grassland.
"Yes!"
The guard said yes and turned around...... One fell to the ground.
Ye Sang's eyes shrank, he rolled on the spot, threw himself on the edge of the couch, and reached out to grab the saber at the head of the bed.
"Ka~boom~"
A bolt of crossbow pierced through his leather robes and pierced his heart from the back of the heart.
Only the tail of the arrow was exposed on the outside of the robe, and the blood flowed from under the robe, and there was no trace of blood on the outside.
Ye Sang opened his eyes wide in astonishment, and slowly lay down on the ground, and when he lay down, there was red blood, which slowly condensed along the tail of the arrow, like blood and tears, falling in Yan.
At the same time, several tents with lights on, like fireflies in the night, ushered in several Grim Reapers.
Li Yu is a person with modern consciousness, how can he not understand the benefits of special forces in combat. He has three sects and nine streams, and he is the culmination of all kinds of criminals, among whom even the chickens and dogs can survive the brutal training, but they are also pretentious.
Tie Wuhuan separately recruited a large number of people with special talents among these people, specially trained, and directly belonged to Li Yu. Li Yu adopted the practice of Chang Jiannan under the "East Fence" and the four beams and eight pillars under the seat, and had an armed force that was completely subordinate to him.
These people are clever in infiltrating and assassinating, and it is the sharp blade that minimizes the losses of their own side in the war, and today is their first battle, and it seems to be quite effective.
If the enemy knows this characteristic of Li Jiajun's combat in the future and vigorously strengthens the defense, their assassination role may become smaller, but at that time they can completely assassinate secondary targets and major officers for the purpose of setting fire, destroying, delaying the enemy, and disturbing the enemy's morale......
Li Yu trained them as special forces from the beginning, and in this regard, they were different from the dead guards raised by Chang Jiannan and others.
After these special forces had finished killing people, they lit the tent with the fire in the tent to heat it, and in an instant, a huge "torch" burned one after another, which was even more dazzling than the indicator lights for the take-off and landing of airplanes.
The dragons have no leader, a plate of loose sand!
The sleeping herdsmen woke up from their slumber when the hoofs thundered for miles away, and the rushing cavalry had no need to hide their secrets, but they did not light the torches, because the special forces who had infiltrated first were attacking a felt tent with rockets, and the lit felt tent turned into a huge lantern.
So, a war horse that rushed out of the night, like a demon god from the sky, stepped in directly, and waved his sword fiercely.
However, the killing and harvesting did not last long, and when some of the tribesmen who had taken the lead in the rebellion were quickly resolved, the same Tibetan phrase was shouted by the cavalrymen who were constantly wandering through the felt tents on horseback: "Abandon your weapons and do not kill!" Abandon your weapon or kill it! Abandon your weapon or kill it! ”
In Longyou, the most precious thing is not land, but population. The place is vast and sparsely populated, and there is no one in so much land, so can it be used as a garden to enjoy the scenery? Anyone with a little foresight will not kill indiscriminately! When the Yongdan tribe invaded Ji County, they often plundered the population.
Hearing this shout, many people threw down their weapons. They knew that once captured, they would become serfs of other tribes, but ...... Obviously, resisting is death, and it is better to be a serf than to lose your life, so after some weighing, it is better to choose to surrender.
When they found out that it was actually their clan leader Yongdan who led the team, they were even more relieved. It was Lord Ye Sang's decision to betray the eldest lord, and as clansmen, they had no room for resistance. Since it is Lord Yongdan who has returned, maybe they can still serve the people under the seat of Lord Yongdan, which is even more reassuring.
As a result, bundles of knives, guns, bows and arrows were taken away, and not even a kitchen knife was left. But these Yongdan people don't care, now that the situation is not stable, Master Yongdan will definitely do this. Yongdan didn't notice it, because after he made an impassioned speech and calmed people's hearts, he was shouted by Li Yu, who was very keen to help him pacify the tribe, to continue to go to the next tribe.
Therefore, when the whole great tribe of men, women, and children, armed with less than two hundred men and armed to the teeth, was forced to embark on the road to Zhemei City after dawn, driven by a cavalry force of less than two hundred men but armed to the teeth, and pushed a cart full of barley, and was forced to embark on the road to Zhemei City.
……
In the big tent, accompanied by transverse flutes, dulcimer, brass bells, drums and other accompaniments, two young and playful Tibetan women throw their long sleeves and tap out of a variety of rhythms with light and graceful dancing, expressing wild or warm or sad or lingering intentions.
The whole thing is very different, and he is a person who knows how to enjoy it.
As an old aristocrat who has been passed down from generation to generation, Dong is full of fat brains, and although he is tall, he is really not strong. However, when it comes to enjoyment, his pomp is full.
Tonight, at the border of the Yongdan tribe of the army, he personally supervised the battle, but he was still singing and dancing in the tent.
The red lacquered silver wooden bowl holds clear barley wine, and on the plate is a glutinous rice cake made of butter tea or barley wine, and on a larger plate there are large pieces of hand-grasped mutton, which are cut with a pocket knife, and chewed with grabbing the juice dripping with juice, which is very happy.
"Humph! Li Yu, cunning! Whoever attacks Yongdan's lair first will listen to whomever he wants. He clearly provoked me to send troops first! ”
"The old man is wise!" Immediately, there were several generals complimenting him.
Dong Tuo was triumphant: "This person has just come to Ji County, how much background can he have?" He dares to run thousands of miles and enter the belly of the enemy? He didn't dare! That's why he used bait to lure me into the army, and he won in the chaos! The old man won't fall for him! ”
Although this minister of the whole thing does not practice martial arts, he has learned Chinese and is a thief, and his export is complete.
The generals are naturally even more sycophant, one of them said: "What the prime minister said is, let's wait, he Li Yu can't hold on, so he can only send troops, and when the time comes, he will attract the main force of the Yongdan tribe, let's take advantage of the weakness to enter, hahaha......"
The crowd laughed and raised their bowls, just about to drink.
The two girls dancing in the tent were suddenly knocked open, and a samurai in half-body leather armor hurriedly rushed in, panting and saying, "The whole thing is great, big ...... Big things are not good! Plum Fish ...... sent troops, first destroyed Ye Sang's department, and then Yongdan said to descend the second lady's department, the eldest lady and Li Yu's soldiers and horses cooperated, carried Ye Sang's head, and trapped Ye Sang's main force to besiege the eldest lady. ”
"What?"
Dong took off his hands and softened, a bowl of barley wine was all spilled on the best hand-grasped mutton, and he didn't care about the juice on his beard, so he stood up with a few dwarfs and roared: "Send troops!" Troops now! ”
