Chapter 157: One More Big Move
As soon as Liu Ji sighed, he could finally sleep peacefully, and Su Lie, who was standing beside Liu Ji, said: "Lord, it has been ascertained from the mouth of the captive that this Lou Fu army is composed of the combination of the Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe, and the reason why the Cangxiong tribe sent troops is because we destroyed the 5 cavalry thousand teams of the Cangxiong tribe in Chengyin County before, and the Qingyang tribe is because the Wuheng tribe that we destroyed in the grassland not long ago is a subsidiary tribe of the Qingyang tribe. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Zhou Kai, who was more familiar with the various tribes on the grassland, then said to Liu Ji: "Lord, the Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe are one of the five major tribes of the Lou Fu tribe, and the five major tribes of the Lou Fu tribe, except for the tribe where the Lou Fu Great Khan is located, the patriarchs of the other four tribes are the four sect kings of the Lou Fu tribe, I didn't expect us to provoke the two sect kings of the Lou Fu tribe at once!" ”
Yang Zaixing immediately said indifferently: "No matter what he is to the five major tribes, we didn't just destroy their tens of thousands of cavalry, just captured more than 35,000 of them, these more than 35,000 Loufu cavalry that we caught, according to the lord's method, can at least collect 30,000 cavalry, plus our current eight cavalry, even if the Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe come with a large army, our Chengyin army will also destroy them!" ”
This night attack on the camp of the Lou Fu army, Liu Ji was very satisfied with the Hu cavalry that was recruited, you must know that among the cavalry under Liu Ji's command, there are many Lou Fu people, and most of these Lou Fu people are people from the Cangxiong tribe, and the rest are also people from the affiliated tribe of the Qingyang tribe, but last night, these Lou Fu cavalry were not at all soft at all to the people of the same clan or even the same tribe.
However, when he heard Yang Zaixing say that he wanted to recruit 30,000 Lou Fu cavalry, Liu Ji's brows furrowed slightly, it was not that he couldn't absorb 30,000 Lou Fu cavalry, he caught a total of more than 35,000 Lou Fu prisoners last night, and there was absolutely no problem in recruiting 30,000 people from it, but among the cavalry under Liu Ji, the proportion of Hu people was very high, and if he directly added 30,000 Lou Fu cavalry, Liu Ji would be a little worried about the control of the cavalry troops.
Wei Xiaokuan said to Liu Ji suddenly: "Lord, according to the prisoner's confession, the total strength of the combined forces of the Cangxiong tribe and the Qingyang tribe this time has reached 90,000, and the Cangxiong tribe has sent 3 10,000 troops and 5 thousand teams, as well as 20,000 cavalry from affiliated tribes, totaling more than 58,000 horses, and the Qingyang tribe has sent 3 10,000 teams, about 32,000 horses, you must know that the soldiers and horses of these two tribes only had 6 cavalry teams of 10,000 people before!" ”
Liu Ji's eyes lit up instantly, "Xiaokuan, what do you have in mind?" ”
Wei Xiaokuan continued: "My lord, my subordinates personally interrogated the commander of the Cangxiong tribe, and learned from him that the Cangxiong tribe has robbed a large number of Jin people in the territory of the Great Jin in recent years, and some of the Jin people were sold to other tribes on the grassland by the Cangxiong tribe, and more Jin people still stayed in the Cangxiong tribe as a slave to the annoying Lou, and now the Cangxiong tribe is only two full 10,000 people, the most important thing is that the Cangxiong tribe is less than four hundred miles away from the Xishan Pass, if it is cavalry, Maybe it only takes a day to get from the stream pass to the bear tribe! ”
"You mean to send cavalry troops to directly raid the Bear Tribe?" Liu Ji couldn't help but exclaim to Wei Xiaokuan.
Wei Xiaokuan nodded and said, "Lord, that's exactly what your subordinates think about!" The previous 5 cavalry and 1,000 teams of the Cangxiong tribe were all annihilated by us in the territory of Chengyin County, this time the Cangxiong tribe 30,000 teams and 5 thousand teams, the blow was almost devastating, even if some people fled back to the Cangxiong tribe, it was useless, if we raided the Cangxiong tribe, we only needed to defeat the 2 full 10,000 people! ”
Su Lie next to him said at this time: "Lord, my subordinates think that Brother Wei's idea is very good, the Cangxiong tribe would never have thought that our Chengyin army would go deep into the grassland for nearly four hundred miles and raid their tribe location, this is also prepared against unprepared, and the chance of success is very high, after all, last night, more than 70,000 troops were defeated by our Chengyin army." ”
Zhou Kai said excitedly: "Lord, this is a great opportunity, if our Chengyin Army can take down the Cangxiong Tribe, our Chengyin Army will be rich!" ”
Liu Ji listened to the words of several generals, and couldn't help but be moved, the most tempting thing for Liu Ji was the Jin slaves in the Cangxiong tribe, you must know that Chengyin County is in great need of population, especially the Jin people, once Liu Ji can rescue a large number of Jin people from the Cangxiong tribe, then Liu Ji can select young and strong men from them to join the Chengyin army, increase the proportion of Jin soldiers in the Chengyin army, and when the time comes, 30,000 Lou Fu cavalry will be recruited, and Liu Ji does not need to worry about the problem of control.
Although Liu Ji had already agreed to the plan of raiding the Cangxiong tribe in his heart, he still hesitated and said: "To raid the Cangxiong tribe, you must use all the cavalry and go all out, but we have more than 35,000 annoying prisoners here, more than 100,000 war horses, and other trophies are also piled up, if the seven cavalry are sent to the Cangxiong tribe, what can we do with so much booty?" Transporting these trophies back to Chengyin County is really not enough to rely on less than 6,000 infantry alone! ”
Wei Xiaokuan said: "Lord, the raid on the Cangxiong tribe is not in a hurry for these two days, our seven cavalry can transport the spoils back to the territory of Chengyin County with the infantry, and then the seven cavalry will send the Cangxiong tribe again." ”
Liu Ji asked, "Is it too late?" ”
Wei Xiaokuan said with a smile: "Lord, the Cangxiong tribe would not have thought that our Chengyin army would attack their lair, so it doesn't matter if it is delayed for a few days, but it can't give the Cangxiong tribe too much time, after all, the Cangxiong tribe is the five major tribes of Loufu, and some of the background is still there, giving the Cangxiong tribe too much time, maybe the Cangxiong tribe will be able to recover a lot of troops." ”
Liu Ji touched his chin and asked, "You say, do you need to solve the problem of the Qingyang tribe together?" ”
Su Lie immediately said: "My lord, the Qingyang tribe is about five hundred miles south of the Cangxiong tribe, and the straight-line distance from the Xishan Pass is also more than six hundred miles, and the Qingyang tribe still has at least 3 full teams of 10,000 people, and the subordinates suggest that we should solve the Cangxiong tribe first, and as for the Qingyang tribe, we should study it later!" ”
Su Lie was embarrassed to say that Liu Ji was not greedy enough, and he was just about to raid the Cangxiong Tribe, but Liu Ji even remembered the Qingyang Tribe.
"Good! After transporting the loot here back to the territory of Chengyin County, the cavalry units rushed to the Cangxiong tribe, and our Chengyin army will make another big move this time! ”
