In order to clear the periphery of Dashicheng as soon as possible, Yang Hao issued a "lump sum order": the more than 20 small tribes scattered outside Dashicheng were evenly divided into five groups according to their size and strength.

Ordered the battalions to get busy all of a sudden, Liu Pan led the front battalion to take the lead in destroying the six miscellaneous tribes scattered in the south of Dashicheng, the so-called "miscellaneous people" that is, with a certain ethnic group as the backbone, mixed with other populations, and the formation of the tribe, in the comparison of numbers, the number of the main ethnic groups does not occupy an absolute advantage, but only a relative advantage,

These six miscellaneous tribes in the south of Dashicheng are mainly Uighurs, mixed with Tang people, Uighurs, Khitans, Turks, Xi people, Shatuo people, etc., some tribes Uighurs are very few in number, not to mention the absolute majority, even the relative majority cannot be occupied, just because in the Uighur sphere of influence, due to the advantages of language, customs, and religion, the Uighurs, even if they are weak in numbers and strength, can still hold power and exploit other tribes, such tribes have very poor cohesion and combat effectiveness.

Everywhere the battle flags of the front battalion went, the large and small tribes demanded surrender, Liu Pan refused to accept their surrender out of extreme contempt, so the offensive and defensive battle lasted for five days before and after, and then the various departments were not qualified to surrender again, they have been completely conquered, as fish and meat, what qualifications do they have to bargain with the cutting board and the knife,

In this battle, the front battalion suffered six hundred casualties, and they were all elite, in the face of doubts, Liu Pan shot back: "Fuck an old lady who broke her own gun, you are embarrassed to say, those people are born despicable, everyone is lewd, all capricious, drink with you today and call you brothers, tomorrow I can make you rebel, turning your face is more neat than fucking turning books, you really want to make people stab their butts when they go to the girls, don't forget, Big Rock City is the girl you want to go to, the jewels in the city are piled up, good-looking girls grab a handful, in order to take down Big Rock City, In order not to leave any trouble, is it not worth losing a few brothers? ”

The people who said nothing were speechless, and Liu Pan immediately announced: The brothers who died in the war will be buried thickly, and in the future, the big stone city will be conquered, and the property taken will be given priority to the care of the dead soldiers, so that their parents will have no shortage of food and clothing, and let their wives and children live with dignity, which will always be the law in the future.

Yang Hao heard this "regulation" promulgated by Liu Pan on the way to Dashicheng, so he asked Zhang Bozhong to draft a pension order: deepen and refine Liu Pan's "regulations", fix them after improvement, and promulgate them for implementation in each battalion.

Compared with the front battalion, the luck of the other battalions is much worse, the rear battalion attacked the three Xi tribes in the northwest of Dashi City, five thousand cavalry were defeated by more than a thousand Xi people twice in a row, Sean Qing felt that he had no face, so he had to go into battle in person, Xi people immediately returned the color, so that he had no face, a Xi cavalry took advantage of the night to raid the Chinese army, killed him out of the sleeping tent with his bare buttocks, ran naked for a mile, and ran naked for a mile, and the fuel lay in the ditch and pretended to be dead to escape with a life,

However, this fiasco inspired him, Xiao Enqing played the trick of "cheating death" with Xi Ren, he announced that he was "unfortunately killed" in the battle of Xi Ren's fifty warriors raiding the military tent, of course, the news of the boss's "death in battle" has always been strictly confidential, in order not to make Xi people suspicious, Xiao Enqing used two actions to convey the message of his "death in battle": First, after the Xi people's raid, the rear camp did not carry out retaliatory actions, but died down and guarded the camp and did not come out; 2. Send a messenger to report to the base camp: Sean Qing, the commander of the rear battalion, was killed in battle, and his headquarters was in danger, so he asked the commander to send someone to preside over the military affairs of the rear camp.

The messenger sent three, and one of them sadly got into the pocket set up by the Xi people, and became a prisoner of the Xi people, and the Xi people intercepted the letter, but doubted the letter, so they tortured the messenger, and beat him to the flesh, but the messenger still did not change his words, and he said the truth, and the news of the Lord's death was told to him by the lieutenant general himself when he was leaving.

After analyzing it, Xi Ren determined that Sean Qing had indeed died in battle, and they immediately made a decision: the Khitan people are powerful and cannot be confronted with them, so it is better to take advantage of the death of the other party's commander and the leaderless dragons, and quickly retreat into the city to seek refuge.

Xi people said to do it, on the night of confirming that Xiao Enqing "died in battle", they set up camp and went to Dashicheng, at first their vigilance was still very high, and sent elite cavalry to watch closely after the silent Houying Dazhai like an ancient tomb, until the brigade of men and horses was only seven or eight miles away from the city, and the minaret of Dashicheng was far away in the morning light, they completely relaxed their vigilance,

The Xi cavalry, who were monitoring the rear camp, withdrew and rushed to the front of the ranks, and they wanted to give the impression that they were very powerful and useful, and that accepting them into the city would be beneficial or harmless to the city, or that the benefits outweighed the disadvantages.

When there were still five miles away from the city, the situation suddenly changed, three Khitan cavalry stepped on the momentum of wind and thunder, from the grassland that had not yet taken off the night, and the slender migration team was instantly cut into three sections, the Xi tribe suddenly fell into a huge chaos, originally they belonged to the three tribes, hatred, jealousy, and never stopped attacking and killing each other, it was the common disaster that temporarily pinched them together, and now the disaster came unexpectedly, even if they were united together, they could not resist, at the critical moment, everyone's inner selfishness was revealed: not obeying orders, each fleeing for his life,

Except for the more than 1,000 escort cavalry, the rest of the nearly 10,000 Xi people are just a group of lambs to be slaughtered.

The Xi people sent a distress signal to the defenders in the city, and the defenders responded: You have to hold on, we will go out of the city to meet you, and we will not pay lip service until the last Xi people who dared to resist were killed under the horse, and the iron gate of Dashicheng was not opened.

The iron door will never be opened, the leaders of Big Rock City have long been dissatisfied with these disobedient Xi people, because there are business and trade contacts on weekdays, let me be patient, at this moment the war is imminent, the siege of Big Rock City has become an irreversible trend, adding 10,000 people who can only eat and are disobedient, it is difficult for anyone in charge of the house to make this decision,

The Xi people were completely conquered, more than 10,000 people knelt in the morning breeze and waited for the judgment of fate, for many elders, this kind of thing has happened more than once, each time there are different tricks, no one can measure what will happen next, Xiao Enqing's rear camp completely conquered the three Xi tribes at a great cost, in order to vent his anger, and in order to warn the defenders in the city, he ordered all the Xi people over fifty years old, injured and unable to walk in the open space outside the north gate of Dashi City,

The severed head is inserted on a wooden stake for public display, the corpse is disemboweled, the intestines are dragged out of the body, and the scavengers of the steppe are lured with the smell of blood: crows, vultures, hyenas, and howls as they compete for food to create an atmosphere of terror.

Compared with the rear battalion first defeated and then won, the right battalion of the big branch is the first victory and then the defeat, the victory is gorgeous, the defeat of the nest, when the siege of the big stone city officially kicked off, the big branch and his right battalion are due to the loss of combat ability, and can only nest in the rear as a garrison, and it is precisely because of their fiasco that Yang Hao finally pushed the feather shooting battalion to the foreground, unintentionally inserted willows and willows, and an invincible iron army across the world was born from this,

The object of the big branch is active in the southwest of the big stone city on both sides of the Niluo River on both sides of the six miscellaneous tribes with the Shatuo people as the main trunk, the big branch first used a lot of profits to buy the leader of the six of the Nu Fang tribe Shu Xuan as his own internal line, so he was able to subdue the three tribes on the east bank of the Miro River without much effort, and the Nu Ya Department who was bought by him took the opportunity to cross the river for refuge, and secretly took the big branch to cross the river, after the big branch crossed the Niluo River, he immediately launched an attack on the three including the Nu Ya Department, and the battle was very smooth, and one announced surrender after a little resistance, The other almost took the initiative to send people to surrender, only the angry tooth department pretended to deal with the right battalion for a few days, and after the play was done, it also announced its surrender,

In order to verify the loyalty of the various tribes to him, he invited the leaders and elders of the various tribes to gather in his camp to participate in the banquet.

To his surprise, except for Shu Xuan, the leader of the Fufang Tribe, the leaders and elders of the other five tribes all came as promised, and each department brought no more than 20 armor soldiers, looking like they were sincerely attached.

The absent leader of the Angry Tooth tribe brought a letter, declaring that he was in a state of acute illness and could not attend the banquet, and begged the general for forgiveness, and sent a generous congratulatory gift with the letter.

This can make the big branch embarrassed, if the other tribal leaders are absent, he immediately sent troops to recruit it, but it is the uncle who has made a great contribution to himself, he is unjust, and if he is not killed, it may be difficult to calm the public, so he thinks that the smart big branch thinks of a stupid plan: he wants to take the other five leaders to visit the sick uncle in the angry tooth department,

Immediately, some of the leaders of the five tribes raised their opinions, saying that it was unlucky to visit the sick on the day of the great joy, and that it was better to visit them on another day.

On that day, Da Zhi Er took his personal guards and brought gifts to visit Uncle Hui in the Nu Fang Department, and his elder Shi Dulong advised him to bring more men and horses, in case there was a change, Da Zhi Er smiled and said: "Don't worry, I proposed to visit Uncle Hui that day, those people only cared about drinking and watching singing and dancing, and refused to go, it can be seen that they are not of the same heart, if they do not agree, who dares to fight me, then Uncle Sui betrayed his friends, and only rely on me to survive on the grassland in the future, how dare he betray me." ”

Du Long said: "Uncle Xuan is a Shatuo people, cunning by nature, you must not be guarded, the general brings more men and horses, but also to strengthen our army, deter those mongrel tribes." ”

When he heard this, he was very pleased, so he increased the number of men and horses from 200 to 800, and it was the extra 600 who finally saved his life.

It turned out that Uncle Sui had taken refuge in him as a fake, he had already colluded with the other five departments, pretended to be obedient, and chose the opportunity to trap and kill Da Zhier, and cut off his head as a greeting gift to go to Big Rock City, Shu Xuan and the leaders of the five departments both believed that only Big Rock City could shelter them, and they all admitted that if there was no suitable meeting gift, Big Rock City would not accept them,

Shu Xuan said to them: "The three Xi people have no available soldiers, so they will not accept them, but our soldiers are strong enough to assist them in defending the city, as long as we prove our loyalty, they will definitely open the city to accept us." ”

He went on to explain: "The Great Branch is the confidant of the Great Commander of the Wuhuai Tribe, and if you take his head, they will not doubt our loyalty in any way. ”

The plan has been decided, and the uncle pretends to cooperate with the big branch, and helps him subdue the various departments, although there are casualties in the middle, but the casualties are very small, and the strength of the six departments can be preserved to the greatest extent.

Uncle Sui is a very shrewd man, although he has only met the Great Branch twice, he already knows what he is like, he calculated that the Great Branch will not send troops to recruit him before he dares to come out of illness, and he expects that the Great Branch will come to visit him wisely, and he wants his friends to dissuade the Great Branch from going at that time, so as to create a false impression of disunity among the six tribes, confuse him, and make him lose his vigilance,

If it weren't for Du Long's cautious reminder, Da Zhier's life would have been lost.

If it weren't for the fact that Uncle Xuan's younger brother Mingyi was in a hurry, Da Zhi'er would have lost his life.
