Chapter 8: Fighting the Wolves
The hunt is almost over, and if there are still people who haven't had enough fun, they can come back. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info In addition to the previous intelligence collection, the Chenas Guard acted as a guard of honor, who made Burhan have the money to equip the Chenas well? Zaduro, who was in distress, was very unhappy, and even Iragon could shoot the snow leopard himself, but he could only be used as a guard of honor, which was really depressing. Just as everyone was returning to the camp, a vigorous and powerful wolf howl resounded through the sky! Ay! There was no wolf in this hunt, but there was a leopard, and the steppe wolf was really cunning, so he must have seen the clues. But what happened next left the herders in a state of panic. Maybe the howl just now was the horn of the wolf king, and at this time, the grassland resounded with an undulating response, and there were not a few who listened carefully. Burhan thought it was most likely the same pack of wolves they had encountered that day.
"Leader Qiqi, a large group of wolves were found following us on the periphery of the paddock, and the two soldiers are gone!" The guards who came back to report the news reported with a heavy heart.
Burhan was very surprised, thinking that in front of so many people, these steppe wolves dared to show their fangs and kill two guards, it was simply bold.
"Chief, this pack of wolves must be destroyed." The herdsman in this area, Xilin Manda, suddenly knelt down in front of the crowd and prayed.
"Is it necessary? We also encountered wolves when we came back, aren't we okay? Zaduro muttered quietly, which he looked dismissive.
"The third prince doesn't know that there are at least 300 wolves in this pack. The howl of the head wolf is sonorous and powerful, obviously in the prime of life, such a wolf pack will inevitably become a big trouble in the future when it develops to such a scale, and at that time, I am afraid that even sending an army of thousands of people may not be an opponent! "Xilin Manda is right, once the Hechi Ti tribe suffered a wolf plague, composed of thousands of wolves. A herd of 4-500 horses was all lost in one night, the small group was not vulnerable at all, and the old Khan was also bitten and died when he sent troops to encircle and suppress at that time (estimated to be rabies). The nobles of the tribe also knelt down and begged the leader to send troops to encircle and suppress them, and they could not allow such an unstable factor to appear. At first, Burhan didn't care, and the more he thought about it, the more he thought that if he continued to hide it, it would become a hard wound for him to be discovered, and it would cause trouble for his father and family.
Burhan lifted his clothes and knelt down, his head bowed very low, as if he had confessed his mistake. The nobles are stunned, what? What do you mean, eldest son? Even Wu Rizhao next to him was bored.
"Burhan, do you mean to admit your mistake or what? If it's for not finding out what is going on with the wolves, forget it, it's not your fault. "Alette knew his son, he must have missed something to come here. This kid's political methods are not even as good as his own, and the copper-bottomed iron gang he runs has no flaws, so he might as well excuse him first.
"No, father. Burhan was willing to be punished for doing something wrong. Burhan had encountered this pack of wolves, and at that time he guessed that there were about 300 of them, because he did not take measures, he almost caused a catastrophe first, and caused the tragic death of two guards, and Burhan was guilty. ā
Looking at Burhan like this, everyone thinks it's really nothing, isn't there not much to lose? Those who know the inside story may have learned from their heirs that it was already dark at that time, and it would be foolish if Chinath attacked, and the night was the world of wolves, and if Chinath lost more than he gained.
"Chief, you can't blame the prince of Burhan for this, in fact, I know about this, it was late at that time and it was not conducive to clearing those wolves, if anyone has to blame, then count me as one!" Kali knelt down very shamefully, everyone knew that he was optimistic about the son of Burhan, and his boy Tong Ga was currently the Nakor of Burhan, and he was also one of the guards of the Chinasi, and he had a bright future.
"I also have a share, and my kid also told me, I don't care!"
"And me", "Me too"...
Slowly, the nobles in front of the king's account knelt down to plead guilty, in order not to blame the prince of Burhan. Oddly enough, Uri Zhao was among them, and he probably knew about it. Alat was very happy at this time, the results of Gongzi's diplomacy were very effective, and the forces that originally belonged to different nobles were twisted together at this time, and it was foreseeable that if Burhan succeeded to the throne in the future, his position would be more stable, which was exactly what Alet wanted.
Looking at the people kneeling all over the ground, the purpose was just to avoid Burhan being punished, and Alert also knew about it, of course, he didn't want anything to happen to his son, so in this case, it would be better to get off the donkey.
Alert glanced at Burhan fiercely, "Okay, since that's the case, let's make meritorious contributions!" This pack of wolves is in your hands, and you and your Chinath will be in charge of cleaning them up, remembering that you have less than half an hour. I'll stop asking about you then. Turning to leave, Kari risked her life to stop Alet. Leader, the establishment of the Chinasi has been less than half a year and they are all children with little experience, I don't think it is better for me to go with the eldest prince, so I can take care of it. ā
"Do you want to come out?" Listening to Alett's tone, Kali's heart trembled. He can tolerate the unreasonableness and mistakes of his heirs, but he cannot tolerate the concerns of his subordinates, which may be the majesty of the leader!
"If you can't even solve this, there will be no need for her existence." Alett dropped the words and left the horde. Everyone began to reflect that what the leader had done over the years was meaningful, which made them all confused, and their minds were not very developed. There is also a clear reason, the establishment of the Chi Nasi is so that in the future, the army of the Hechi Ti Department can take away more soldiers without causing an empty force, these reserves are too cruel and wasteful to send to the battlefield, but it is a good choice to stay in the old battalion, at least they are there, the soldiers on the front line can fight with peace of mind to win more trophies for the Hechi Ti Division, otherwise with the current combat strength of the Hechi Ti Division, it only needs a disastrous victory to severely damage the Hechi Ti Department and then be swallowed up. The more soldiers who go into battle, the more chances there are to win.
While the generals and nobles in the Great Tent were still pondering the words of the leader of Alet, Burhan had no time to observe, and he was summoning the Chinath.
"Zaduro, go and call all the officers of the guard to our big account." Zaduro had always been resolute, and in a short time a group of officers of the Chinas Guard gathered in the big tent. Their waists, hips, scimitars, backs, small bows, and large bodies look very powerful, these are all purchased by Burhan with private property, otherwise how can they be like honor guards? But no one dares to underestimate the bravery under this gorgeousness.
"It's all here, I won't say anything else, we have less than half an hour. Tong Ga! Did the probe find out the range of the wolves? ā
"Yes," Tong Ga walked to the map, marking the direction and explaining to everyone, "here... Over here... There are also three places here, among which the wolves in the back are more and more mixed, probably composed of the old, weak, sick and disabled, the wolf king is in the northwest of this place, the wolves here are relatively strong, and the three people who went to explore the horses were killed here. Also, there seems to be a wolf king in charge here, with 50-60 heads. Tong Ga pointed beside him, this information was given by his father, and the two guards did not die in vain.
"How many are there in the three places?" Guo angrily pinched his chin and asked, quite like a father.
"Huh! There are nearly 300 of them. In fact, Tong Ga is not very sure, just a rough statistics.
"We can't help but think about it, the wolves have a backhand, after all, the cunning of the wolves is already unexpected."
"Yes, we can't take risks, but we can't afford not to fight. In this way, Qin Fang and Guo Nu's troops made a detour to the back to focus on rounding up the defenders of the wolves, as long as they move, you will move, show me that they are dead, and when they come back, they will clean them up. Alatan Jin, like Aladartu, watched the group of more than 60 wolves and couldn't let them join the wolf king, so since they came, they might as well stay. Zaduro stayed behind as a reserve to ambush under the small post here, as long as they have ambushes, they will immediately cover and kill them, and we will deal with the wolf king first. Gangsu He, Bayin Erile, you two are guilty of meritorious service this time, if you are still like a groundhog, I will kill you, did you hear? I'd rather die than die than live. ā
"Thank you, sir!" There are not too many words, but they reveal their original intentions, and sometimes life is a kind of torment. In this way, they can open their hearts, so that they will not be affected in the future because of that incident, it is very important to raise their heads and be a man, this is because the two tiger generals Burhan do not want to break them.
The horses approached the wolves in groups of three or five, and at this time they must know the exact news of the wolves, and they cannot rely on previous conclusions alone, and it is really unwise to fight without field investigations. To this end, Burhan specially developed three sets of plans, and at the same time reserved a retreat route, if it was really defeated, the losses could be minimized. Fortunately, the daring wolves have not changed much, and everything is according to the plan. Qin Fang and Guo Nu arrived at the designated place and released the arrow, and after a while, Alatan Jin and they also released the arrow. Burhan began to direct the men and horses to move in the direction of the wolf, and the troops were as scattered as possible, but they were also in groups of three or five. The actions of the brigade of men and horses can not be concealed, the wolves are still aware of it, and the lone wolves scattered on the periphery begin to assemble to the brigade, the lone wolf does not dare to confront the soldiers, the strength of one wolf may not work, but two or more is not a simple addition operation, quantitative change produces qualitative change. The same result is in line with Burhan's meaning, and the gathering of wolves is the time when the Chinasi arrow array has made meritorious contributions.
The previous arrangement prevented the wolves from uniting and were divided into three groups that could not support each other, and this became a critical period for the Red Nath to eliminate one of them. The war horse crossed the hillside, and walked to the meadow, and the speed was faster, and the people began to make a "chirping, chirping" sound and the same effect as beating the grass and startling the snake, if there are modern people here, they can really feel the outstanding military quality and military genius of the grassland tribe - "all the people are soldiers". Burhan really felt that although these were child soldiers, their military literacy was no worse than that of the soldiers of the Hechiti Division, at most they had experience and skill and strength.
Probably because the momentum of the rush shocked the wolves, the wolf king realized that he was already in danger. Began to direct the wolves to assemble and made several temptations, and a small group of wolves began to tempt. They frequently shuttled between the various guards, and even if there was some momentum, the Chenas immediately surrounded them, and after losing a few wolves, the tentative team left in disgrace.
The wind suddenly hung on the steppe, which seemed to herald the coming of a great war. The battle horn sounded, and the Chinasi, who had completed the encirclement, raised their sabers and untied their bows and arrows, ready at all times. In order to prevent accidents, each team has set up rangers to hunt the occasional fish that slips through the net on the periphery.
With the sound of the two horns of "woo~woo~", the hunt began. The half-moon-shaped formation is tense and orderly and steadily advancing, people shouting, horses neighing, wolves howling wave after wave, the sky is getting dark, wolves are more afraid of fire than people, and the torches of Chinasi should shine out one point of light and one fan after another. Figures, horses' hooves, and wolf shadows began to stagger and change their high-frequency tones, conveying the message of the great war - nervous and excited.
When the coercion came, the wolf king let out a miserable howl, not good, the wolves may have to break through, if they are allowed to stand out, the threat will be even greater. Burhan was determined to kill them, and he would not give them much of a chance.
"Kill!" Holding his scimitar aloft, Burhan slashed the scimitar forward. Chi Nasi is well-trained, everyone shoots arrows with a bow together, tweets... Chirp... The bows and arrows of Gangsuhe and Bayin's Erri Music Club shot at the wolves with anger and resentment. Poof~ Poof, then responded. Fighting is the most basic tactic of China, especially the group fighting, which avoids the collision with the wolves with a single turn, and the speed of the steppe wolf cannot be compared with the war horse. More than 30 wolves were shot dead and wounded in a few round-trips, and if this continues, it won't be long before the wolves are wiped out.
When Gangsu and their two teams of people and horses want to have another big loop, they entered a thick meadow, and suddenly a giant wolf jumped up nearly two meters high with a sudden pounce, if you didn't see it with your own eyes, you really can't believe it, at this time it is also tugging at his heart, only to see Gangsu and throw away the bow and arrow, pull out the saber and throw it towards the wolf, the huge impact force makes the scimitar through the chest of the giant wolf hit the ground heavily, Gangsu and Ma Su walked to the front and bent down to lift their scimitar, leaving only a big wolf bleeding lying alone, The corners of his mouth twitched from time to time, and he didn't move.
The commotion just now was just the beginning, the thick meadow gave the wolves perfect cover, and these wolves who suddenly killed broke the formation of Chinasi, and the form of the battlefield began to reverse in an instant. Some wolves even threw the warrior off their horses, and then they were beheaded by another warrior, and the warriors were also taken on horseback. Burhan did not dare to delay, and immediately issued an order to attack on all fronts. With the addition of fresh combat power, the Chinasi gradually stabilized their position and further divided and killed the wolves. However, the wolves were not to be outdone, they knew that they would die today, and they fought back ferociously one by one, and some began to exchange minor injuries for serious injuries, and serious injuries for the enemy's lives. At this moment, the wolf king howled again, this time more vigorous than the previous time, only to see that there had been no wolf in the intersection of the three sides, and suddenly a large number of huge waves emerged, although the number was not as much as the three piles, obviously the conditions were much better, this is the real elite, they consciously attacked the periphery of the red nasi, trying to tear apart the defense line to meet the wolf king. How could Burhan let them succeed? He gave Tong Ga a look, and Tong Ga immediately fired an arrow, and Zaduro had already stepped on the Black Monk (Zaduro's warhorse, the black foal) and rushed towards the fragile line of defense. Mongolian horses can sprint at speeds of up to 13 m/s, which is just ten breaths away. Zaduro saw a giant wolf with a knife in his hand and completed the first kill cleanly, and then his subordinates also made a success.
Burhan really underestimated the wolf's potential, and the other two groups of wolves were ready to move when they learned that the wolf king was under siege and was likely to be killed. The wolf howl just now was like a signal, and the two groups of wolves began to desperately break through the defense line of Chinasi, especially the group at the back, which was simply dead. Looking at the precarious line of China's defense line, Burhan could no longer sit still, he urged his horse to step forward and kill the enemy group, even Tong Ga, who was the head of his guard, could not persuade him, so he could only follow to protect the left and right. Not only was Burhan anxious, but the nobles who were watching the battle on the periphery also pinched a cold sweat, but if the leader of Alat didn't nod, who would dare to touch this mold?
"Ahh Brother Burhan! "Seeing that Burhan was on the battlefield and fighting with the giant wolf, his heart trembled, and he grabbed his brother Iragon's hand and felt pain, and Iragon was in terrible pain, but he didn't want to disturb his sister. They are twin brothers and sisters, and their love for their sister is beyond words, seeing his sister so nervous about Burhan, Iragon is not happy, he wants to see Burhan's jokes and does not want him to be dangerous to make his sister worry, this guy is really happy! Eragon shook off his sister's hand and urged his horse to gallop toward the battlefield.
"Brother, why are you going? ... Brother" suddenly called out to his brother urgently, but Iragon didn't even look back, and acted so resolutely.
Wu Rizhao, who was watching the battle in the rear, knew his son Iragon best.
"What are you doing? If you don't protect your son, if he makes any mistakes, I won't spare you! Although Wu Rizhao also hopes that Iragon can make a breakthrough, he is also worried about his son, he is such a son, although he is not as good as Burhan, but he is also a rare young talent of the Hechi Ti Division, and there can be no mistakes.
After receiving Wu Rizhao's order, the herdsmen of his gateway urged their horses to join the war group. Kali also saw this as an opportunity, so she gave the herdsmen a look, and the herdsmen led the hounds and followed. If anyone dares to fight against the leader Alett in the Hechiti Division, it must be Wu Rizhao, because only he, Alet, will laugh it off.
In the distance, Burhan urged his war horse to come to Zaduro to cover for him, swinging his knife to cut away several giant wolves, and suddenly the wolves besieging Zaduro chose to jump away. Zaduro, who was fighting hard, looked back and saw that it was his eldest brother, and said with a smile: "Big brother, why are you here?" By the way, he used a saber to remove the front legs of the giant wolf next to the eldest brother, and the two brothers had a tacit understanding.
"Don't talk, focus!" "Be careful of the third brother! It turned out that a galloping giant wolf suddenly rushed towards Zaduro, the black monk was less than a year old and not tall. Seeing that the giant wolf was about to pounce, Burhan took out a hand axe and threw it out on his back, and Zaduro, who was still fighting, was just distracted because of his brother's shouting, only to hear the sound of the hand axe entering the flesh, followed by a spray! With a thud, the body of the giant wolf fell heavily behind Zaduro, and he was no longer alive, and the axe was right in the chest. Although Burhan relieved his younger brother, he also put himself in a predicament, and Zaduro was also entangled by several big wolves, but the surrounding guards could not break through, the giant wolf grinned and frightened the war horse, and the ordinary war horse had already been frightened to cower. At that moment, a giant wolf threw Burhan off his horse and was about to turn around and bite Burhan's neck...... Burhan was so frightened that he fell straight back, but he couldn't get up.
Seeing that the eldest brother was thrown off the horse, but he was entangled by several giant wolves, Zaduro could only wave the scimitar in his hand frantically, hoping to open the way to save the eldest brother. The outer suddenness was extremely frightened at this time, Brother Burhan was in danger, she was so anxious that she cried, she couldn't bear to see this scene anymore and threw herself into her father's arms in pain, at this time she hoped that her brother could arrive quickly, but she was afraid that her brother would ...... Wu Rizhao comforted his daughter, and the nobles around him also pinched a cold sweat. The Chinasi are even more desperate to move closer to the "adult", and the lethality is doubled.
The giant wolf got up and bit at Burhan's neck, looking like it was about to bite. Zaduro was almost insane, flicking his saber frantically with tears in his eyes, and was about to bite, when suddenly an arrow went straight into the throat of the giant wolf. The giant wolf, which had lost its stamina, suddenly slipped into Burhan's crotch. It was too dangerous just now, and Burhan looked in the direction of the arrow to see that it was Iragon, and he was slowly putting away his small bow as if he were pretending to be forced. Behind him, the herdsmen and hounds rushed over, and instantly fought with the wolves, some of the hounds and wolves rolled together four or five times, and then bit the belly, neck and other soft underbelly of the giant wolf. The wolves had been fighting with the Chinasi of Burhan for more than ten minutes, and the killed were killed, and the remnants were already exhausted by this time. The herdsman's big stick beckoned, and he coldly whipped it towards the head of the giant wolf, although it could not die, it had to be slowed down, and on this slow strength, someone had already harvested its life. After a few more minutes, the battle finally came to an end, and the paddock was steaming, and the wolf corpses, horse bodies, dog mouths, and human foreheads were all steaming white. The wolf king was also killed by Burhan's axe, an authentic headshot. Everyone began to mend the knife one by one, and the wolf's heart was poisonous! A rough inventory of 500 of them, fortunately, Zaduro was allowed to be a reserve before, otherwise they would have succeeded! Burhan didn't care about these wolf corpses, naturally someone would deal with them.
