Although all the tribes have left people and horses in the clan, but before sending troops, all the tribes feel that going south to the Central Plains is a golden opportunity.

They actually didn't think that this war would be delayed for so long, for most of the barbarians, going south to the Central Plains is like a rich man who has no courtyard at home, leaving only two weak children guarding the gate, and the strong barbarians are killed, it is not to be captured, taking advantage of the emptiness of the Qin people's garrison, making a big fortune and making a windfall.

Almost all the tribes have this mind, and few people can think of the difficulties they are encountering in advance.

It was precisely because they were in a hurry to send troops and were not fully prepared, so each tribe brought out their elites in order to have more strength when looting.

And this is precisely what leads to the emptiness of the grasslands.

The so-called emptiness, of course, does not mean that there are no people on the grassland, but that the fighting forces on the grassland are extremely empty.

The grassland is not a place rich in resources, although the tribes are full of cattle and sheep, and they are many young, but their fighting power is not as strong as imagined.

The most important thing is that the iron weapons on the grassland are very lacking, and the spear and knife are very scarce in the grassland, although the barbarians are strong and tall, brave and ruthless, but there is no weapon to equip them, and their combat effectiveness is naturally greatly reduced.

Bing Feng pointed to the south, the tribes are naturally equipped with elite soldiers and horses to go out, the weapons and equipment of the tribes, also took away seven or eight out of ten, in this situation of the big alliance, of course, the tribes have reached a very tacit agreement to stop the infighting, the tribes are not worried that when they go out on the expedition, the backyard will be harassed, if there are tribes taking advantage of this time to wreak havoc in the backyard, it will inevitably become the common enemy of all tribes on the grassland.

They came excitedly, bent on taking advantage of the emptiness in Hexi, but they seemed to forget that when their soldiers set out on the expedition, the nest behind them had also become empty.

At this time, hearing the bad news caused by the fracture, many people were already frightened, and a few people were eager to lead the troops back immediately.

Most of the people present know that the Northwest Army has a cavalry corps with more than 10,000 people, this cavalry corps is very well-equipped, and the combat ability is very strong, the battle of Qiufengyuan has naturally been spread, and everyone present is also very clear that the failure of the battle of Qiufengyuan is of course due to other factors, such as the withdrawal of An Lei and others, but the most important reason is because of the strength of the Northwest cavalry.

If the Battle of Qiufuyuan could not give them too direct feelings, then the thousands of men and horses on Jochitai went out to search for food, but ended up with the annihilation of the whole army, which undoubtedly proved the ruthlessness and strong combat effectiveness of the Northwest Cavalry.

Of course, the barbarian cavalry will not be afraid of a head-to-head confrontation with the Northwest Cavalry, but now the Northwest Cavalry did not rush over to face each other head-on, but instead ran long distances and killed the grassland, how could this not surprise the barbarian generals.

"Teguzhe, your message is not wrong?" A general with a rather fiery temper stepped forward and grabbed the placket of Teguzhe's chest, "The Northwest cavalry went to the grassland?" ”

Tegu Zhe was extremely tired, and at this time, he was grabbed by the general's chest, but he was a little annoyed, he was a member of the Tushi Khan tribe, so he naturally would not take the generals of other tribes in his eyes, raised his hand and pushed it away, and said angrily: "What I said, you heard it yourself, why bother asking?" The Northwest cavalry was not in their camp, and naturally went to the steppe. ”

Before Teguzhe came in, the generals were still elated because Ibu had come up with a way to dig tunnels and sneak attack, but at this time, they all looked ugly.

After a period of silence, he saw a person suddenly turn around and go out of the tent, and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Where are you going?" ”

"Naturally, it's back to the grassland." The man didn't look back, "The Northwest cavalry has already killed the grassland, do we still have to wait here?" I'm afraid that our tribe has been ransacked by the Northwest cavalry! ”

As soon as the man spoke, several people turned around and left.

At this moment, they heard an angry roar, and then heard a "click" sound, everyone was taken aback, and looked over, but saw that Tushi Khan had drawn out his scimitar, but had already cut the table in front of him in half.

Tushi Khan held the saber in his hand, angry and gloomy, after all, he was the strongest tribal leader on the grassland, and the others were also chilled when they saw this.

"Previously, we elected the leader, and everyone present had already made an oath that everyone must obey the commander's command before taking Wuping Mansion City." Tushi Khan said coldly: "Since Ben Khan has been elected by you as the commander, then he must act according to the oath. Without Ben Khan's order, anyone who mobilizes his troops and horses to leave without permission will be an enemy of Ben Khan, and Ben Khan will regard him as a lifelong enemy. ”

Although many people present were anxious at the thought that the northwest cavalry was rampage on the steppe, they were still quite afraid in the face of the fury of Turshi Khan.

The barbarian general, who had already walked in front of the tent, suddenly stopped, not daring to walk out easily.

The words of Tushi Khan are full of direct threats, telling that once he leaves, it will be equivalent to being the enemy of Tushi Khan, and at present, the barbarian army is coming to the city, but he may not meet with swords, but once he really tears his face with Tushi Khan, after returning to the grassland, Tushi Khan will definitely retaliate, Tushi Khan's tribe is numerous, there are many war horses, and over the years, he has also accumulated a large number of weapons and equipment, this time he has brought 6,000 cavalry to come, with the strength of Tushi Khan, he has done his own army, and gathered 10,000 iron horses, which is not a difficult thing, And among the barbarian tribes, there are very few who can have 10,000 cavalry horses.

There was silence in the big tent, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing, and after a while, Tushi Khan finally said: "Ben Khan knows that you are worried about your clansmen, but if the Northwest Cavalry really goes to the grassland, even if we return to the army, it will be too late, and once we return to the army, we will fall into the trap of the Northwest Army." ”

The generals looked at each other, and finally someone said, "Are we going to sit idly by?" Even if the city of Wuping Mansion is defeated, once the clan is killed, what is the use of getting more loot? ”

Tushi Khan didn't answer and asked: "When was Jochitai besieged and killed?" ”

"It's been more than ten days."

"If Ben Khan didn't guess wrong, Chu Huan wanted to send troops, he had already sent cavalry to the grassland more than ten days ago, and we would return now, it would be too late at all." Tushi Khan sneered: "Ben Khan is sure that they can't stay in the grassland for too long, the grassland is vast and boundless, the people of the northwest have never been to the grassland, they don't know the location of our tribe at all, they are just swimming around in the grassland, if they are unlucky, I'm afraid they won't be able to find any of our tribes for ten days and half a month." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and only felt that what Tushi Khan said was really a fluke.

The Mobei grassland is indeed vast and boundless, boundless, the tribes are scattered all over the grassland, dotted with stars, if you walk on foot, people who don't know anything about the grassland may really turn around the grassland for ten days and half a month and not see a person.

However, the northwesterners dispatched the cavalry, and the cavalry's mobility was so strong that it was natural for the barbarians who lived on horseback when they were young, and if the northwest cavalry galloped across the grassland but could not touch the tribes on the grassland, it would be really whimsical.

It's just that at this time, everyone looked solemn and didn't speak.

"They have tens of thousands of cavalry, and they have to eat and drink Lazar every day, and the grassland does not have so much food to supply them." Tushi Khan sneered: "If we withdraw our troops now, we may not be able to immediately surround them in the grassland, but all our previous efforts will be in vain." The countless grassland warriors who died under the city were like dying in vain. He took a step forward and snapped, "You all want to give up?" ”

After a moment of silence, someone finally asked, "Sudden Khan, what do you think we should do?" ”

"Wuping Mansion City must be captured." Tushi Khan's gaze was firm, "To the Northwest Army!" He clenched his fists sharply, "They don't take us seriously, they have repeatedly provoked us, and now they have sent cavalry to attack our grasslands, we must teach them a good lesson, let them know how powerful we are." ”

Ibu, who had never said a word, suddenly said: "Tushi Khan, the Northwest Army can win successive battles, relying on their cavalry, and it is precisely because they have strong cavalry that they will win frequently." Now their cavalry has gone to the steppe, and all that remains is the infantry! His eyes twinkled, "Maybe it's a good opportunity." ”

Tushi Khan had obviously noticed this, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Chu Huan sent cavalry to the grassland, hoping that we would withdraw our troops to help, but their strength was greatly reduced because of this, in this case, why don't we attack them and force the cavalry on the grassland to return to the rescue?" The Southern Barbarians were no match for us in the first place, and now that there are no cavalry, they are even more vulnerable, isn't this our best chance? ”

The generals immediately understood, and someone immediately asked: "Tushi Khan, do you want to say that while the Northwest Cavalry is not there, we will attack the Northwest Army?" ”

"When we go south this time, we also want the southern barbarians to know that we are powerful." Tushi Khan clenched his fists and sneered: "The camp of the Northwest Army, we have made it clear, they must have thought that we would return to the grassland in a panic when we got the news of the attack on the grassland, but we didn't do what he wanted, we had to take them by surprise, if at this time, we sent troops to fight the Northwest Army, what do you think?" ”

Before the others could speak, Ibu was already excited: "If you go to fight the Northwest Army at this time, they must not expect it." And they only have the infantry army left, and our steppe cavalry suddenly appeared and killed their barracks by surprise, and they will never be opponents. ”

Tushi Khan said: "Yes, they thought that our grassland warriors would retreat, but we would only attack, Ben Khan sent a team of soldiers and horses day and night, suddenly killed, before they could react, they would definitely be killed, and when they were eliminated, once the northwest cavalry wandering in the grassland got the news, they would definitely rush back to rescue in a panic, but when they came back, Chu Huan's head was probably already hanging on our saber!" ”

Yi Bu said loudly: "As far as I know, Chu Huan also has a lot of gold and silver treasures in his hands, as long as Chu Huan is eliminated, after we defeat Wuping Mansion City, we can continue to attack westward, and there are more trophies over there than Wuping Mansion City." ”

Ibu was defeated in the Autumn Wind Plain, the loss of the troops and horses in the headquarters was not small, although the heart of the resentment of An Lei, but also to the northwest army hate, for the barbarians, of course, the defeat is an unforgettable shame, but also become a handle for others to ridicule, if you want to eliminate the mark of shame, the best way, of course, is to re-defeat the enemy who once humiliated you.

Knowing that Chu Huan's cavalry corps had gone to the grassland, Yi Bu felt in his heart that the opportunity had come, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, in his opinion, the Northwest Army without cavalry, of course, could not be the opponent of the barbarian cavalry, the blood rolled all over his body, and he turned to Tushi Khan and said: "Tushi Khan, I am willing to lead the troops to raid the northwest military camp, take off Chu Huan's head and present it to Tushi Khan, and hope that Tushi Khan can agree." ”

Yibu has been very respectful and obedient to Tushi Khan recently, and Tushi Khan is also very appreciative of this person, and when he saw him take the initiative to ask for help, he did not hesitate, nodded and said: "Okay, you have fought with the Northwest Army and know them very well, Ben Khan believes that you will use Chu Huan's head to wash away the shame that you were defeated by him." But you still have to be more careful, the Central Plains people are scheming, don't underestimate the enemy. ”

When Yibu heard Tushi Khan's answer, he was overjoyed in his heart, and he said excitedly: "Don't worry, before the fall of Wuping Mansion City, I will definitely come back with Chu Huan's head." ”

Tushi Khan was even more happy when he heard him call himself "Great Khan", patted Yibu on the shoulder, and said: "Then you will compare with Ben Khan to see whether you take back Chu Huan's head first, or Ben Khan will take off the head of the Emperor of Qin first." ”

The barbarians said they would do it, and they began to prepare on the same day, but the next morning, it was snowing heavily, but this did not affect the barbarians' plan to send troops.

Originally, when he entered the Central Plains, it was the time when the siege was critical, and it was not a good thing to divide the troops at this time, but Chu Huan sent cavalry to attack the grassland, which made the barbarians angry, although Tushi Khan suppressed everyone with might, but he also knew that in order to appease the barbarian tribes, they must have a place to put out fire, and attacking Chu Huan, the initiator, is of course the best way.

And although the barbarians lost troops because of the attack on the Wuping annex city, the strength is still very large, even if one or two thousand cavalry is withdrawn to attack Chu Huan in the west, the remaining soldiers and horses to attack the city also occupy the absolute upper hand.

The barbarians will take revenge if they have revenge, and the revenge will not be overnight, and the next morning, Tushi Khan transferred 15,000 barbarian iron horsemen to Ivan, and ordered him to attack Chu Huan in the west.

In the eyes of Tushi Khan, this heavy snow is not only not a bad thing, but just right, although the combat effectiveness of 15,000 iron cavalry is very amazing, but Tushi Khan hopes that this cavalry can kill Chu Huan's Northwest Army by surprise, solve the battle as quickly as possible, and enter the army under the cover of heavy snow, I am afraid that the Northwest Army will not be able to think of it anyway.
