Chapter 76: Mongol Tribal War (II)
While the patriarch of the Urat tribe was organizing the meeting, the Dalat tribe was discussing the same thing. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Urat did not enter the canyon, but sent a team of 1,000 people to investigate, and the fact that their tribe had built a wall to block the exit of the canyon had been discovered, and the news was quickly reported to the upper echelons of the Dalat tribe.
This time, the construction of the city wall at the exit of the canyon was discovered by the cunning Urats, then they would definitely not continue to venture into the canyon, and the construction of the city wall would be meaningless, and there was no exit from the city wall, which now became an obstacle to the march.
The patriarch of the Dalat tribe spoke first: "Let's all talk about what the Urat people will choose to do next?" What should we do? “
"Patriarch, the Urat must be frightened, I have a feeling that they will retreat." A 10,000-strong man scrambled to answer.
"There are so many of them, they came out once, there was no result, it was impossible to go back like this, and I feel that their command is very cautious, we should be careful, we must not fall into the other party's way."
"If we can't get through this side of the canyon, they will definitely look for other ways to come, so we must first prepare for a surprise attack by the Urarts, if we don't prepare, it will probably lead to heavy losses for us."
"We should first determine where the Urat people are going next. And then make a plan. ”
"We still withdrew the 20,000 troops who were ready to stop the Urats, otherwise the Urat will be wiped out when they find out."
"We should go around the walls and attack the Urats, they must be tired from marching so far, this is our good chance."
The Dalat tribe did not discuss any good countermeasures, but only strengthened the tribe's defenses and transferred back the 20,000 cavalry of 20,000 who were ready to block the Urats.
On the second day, the Urat tribe scattered a large number of spies early in the morning, and then began to evacuate step by step, the first to evacuate was two complete brigades of 10,000 people, then the baggage and other troops, and finally all the cavalry.
The 20,000 cavalry who were the first to evacuate marched more than 10 kilometers and ambushed in the valleys on both sides of the road, preparing to ambush the Dalat cavalry chasing behind.
By noon, the 20,000 cavalry of the Dalat tribe also began to withdraw to the tribe, but their whereabouts were discovered by the people of the Urat tribe and reported to the patriarch of the Urat tribe in time.
After thinking about it, the patriarch of the Urat tribe decided to look for the herd of the Dalat tribe in the surrounding area, and prepared to snatch all the herds of the Dalat tribe west of Zhaojun's tomb. However, he was very disappointed, there was no big herd around, only a few small herds in relatively remote places, this time the Urad tribe carried out carpet inspections, and all the small herds were snatched away, and the adult men were killed, the children who were taller than the wheels were killed, and the old people were killed, leaving only young women and young girls and very small children, and they were robbed to the great west, where the Yellow River bends, and even the grazing herds of the Hangjin tribe in this area were also robbed, and this area became a completely no-man's land.
After a week of looting, the property seized by the Urad tribe was finally able to make up for the consumption of this expedition.
When the Urat tribe sent troops to attack the Dalat tribe, the Tumut tribe also got the news, and sent so many troops, did they want to unite with the Dalat tribe or the Ordos tribe to deal with themselves? After the high-level discussion of the Tumut tribe, whether it is against themselves or not, they must first make enough money before talking, so when the interior of the front of Urad is empty, the Tumut tribe sent 50,000 cavalry to kill the lair of the front of Ulate. Everyone knows the wealth of the Urad tribe, and if you rob their lair, you will definitely make a lot of profits.
Along the plain in front of the mountain, the cavalry forcibly marched, advanced rapidly, and arrived at the nest of the Urat tribe in more than 1 day, and the two tribes themselves were not far away, only 100 kilometers, so it led to many contradictions.
This section of the road was robbed by Feng Youcai, and later there was a vendetta between the tribes, and after many robberies by the Tumut tribe, it is now also a no-man's land, so the 50,000 cavalry quickly advanced without leaking the news. It was not discovered until it was a mile away from the nest of the Urat tribe, but it was too late to organize soldiers to stop it in such a short period of time.
The sergeant on duty at the gate of the tribe shouted: "The enemy is coming, the enemy is attacking." ”
A mile away was an instant for the charging cavalry.
The cavalry of the 50,000 Tumut tribe rushed into the Urat tribe like a huge torrent, and the small blocking force that had been temporarily organized was instantly drowned in the huge torrent, and not even a single wave was raised. The huge torrent washed away all obstacles in its path, and any force that tried to stop it was instantly exaggerated.
The people of the Urat tribe began to flee in all directions, trying to grab a horse and quickly flee from the tribe, and a single person encountered such a large cavalry force, without attacking, he was trampled into pulp by the cavalry; The elderly, women and children were left to their fate, taking refuge in yurts.
The Urat tribe left only 10,000 cavalry to guard the lair, and before they could make due precautions, send out sentinels, and organize a counterattack, they were killed by the cavalry of the Tumut tribe.
Unless the lucky ones with horses and on the fringes of the tribe had a chance to escape, the whole tribe became the spoils of war for the Tumuts.
Following the tradition of the steppe tribes, adult men who surrender go back to be slaves, all those who do not surrender are killed, all the old people are killed, children who are taller than the wheels are killed, women, girls and children belong to wealth, and they go back to be distributed; Cattle, sheep, horses, tents, grain, gold, silver, jewelry, and other goods were all booty, and they had to be transported back to the tribe for redistribution. A large part of them had to be rewarded to the brother tribes, and the left part of Tumut was not for nothing.
It took 1 day just to clean up the battlefield and pack up your belongings. Organized evacuation began on the 2nd day.
This robbery of the wealth accumulated in the front of Urad for hundreds of years is already rich enough, there is no need, and there is no energy to continue to rob the surrounding herds.
After that, more than 100 kilometers from the nest of the Urad tribe to the Tumut tribe from the east to the west, and from the north to the south from the Yellow River to the Ula Mountain, this land became a no-man's land.
Ten days later, the people of the Urat tribe happily returned to the tribe with the booty, but the scene made all the cavalry stunned, and when they robbed others, their own nest was robbed instead, and everyone wanted to cry without tears.
The loot of this robbery was less than one percent of the loss, and the tribe was no longer able to gain a foothold here.
The first thing was to arrange for the dead to be buried in the ground, fortunately, the weather was still cold, the corpses were not decomposed, and with the help of the cavalry of the 40,000 brother tribes, the work was quickly carried out.
Looking at the slaughtered old people, the soldiers who were trampled into pulp, and the young people who had their heads cut off, all of them were left with tears, is this the fate of the steppe people?
The tribal patriarch can only be stronger at this time, he is the backbone of the tribe, and he can't fall. I had to tearfully arrange for people to gather the remaining herds to rush back, and prepare for the migration of the tribe. Now we can only shrink the territory, concentrate the tribal forces, and then try to develop; In any case, you have to live before you can think about revenge.
