Chapter 781: A Lifeless Massacre

Although it has reached the end of the first month, the land of Saibei is still cold and terrifying. After less than three months, there is not a trace of green in sight on the grassland. In the endless field, the wind blows from the north without shelter, and it is outrageous. The prairie people are most worried about the white-haired winds in the harsh winter season, and all the livestock may freeze to death overnight.

A white-haired wind, the grassland can be depressed and make people cry.

A few years ago, when Ashina Jishi was the Turkic Khan, he personally led more than 300,000 wolf riders to the south to invade the Great Sui, when it was after the defeat of Yanmen Pass, the Turkic tribes were unable to raise troops to invade the south, it was because of a catastrophe, the cattle and sheep of the grassland tribes were frozen to death by a white-haired wind, and the grassland people who lacked food could only go south to plunder.

And this winter, for the Turkic tribes, they are experiencing a catastrophe worse than the terrible and violent white-haired wind. This calamity is not a punishment from the heavens, but a man-made calamity.

The Tiele people marched south, and the war that began in the late autumn of last year took a heavy toll on all tribes. The cavalry of the Tiele people passed like locusts crossing the border. The small tribes were slaughtered directly, and the larger tribes initially saw no hope of victory for the Turks, so they also attached themselves to the Zamuhe.

And at the end of the first month, the war took a turn for the worse after a white-haired wind.

The Turkic saintess Ashina Duoduo sent his subordinate general Ashina Chongli to lead 5,000 selected wolf horsemen to the hometown of the Tiele people, and began to retaliate against the enemy with an unscrupulous massacre. At about the same time, the cavalry of the Tiele people also arrived at the Turkic court.

But on the contrary, the Turks were prepared.

Since Liu Hongji thought of the plan of encircling Wei to save Zhao, he naturally also thought that the enemy might use the same trick. After Youzhou Tiger Ben Heavy Armor suddenly appeared to kill the Tiele people, he asked Ashina Duoduo to divide his troops to protect the Turkic royal court. The cavalry of the Tiele people attacked the royal court, but they could not hide the military guards who had been monitoring them.

The strength of the military guards is relatively weak on the grassland, but Liu Hongji, who is already familiar with the laws of war of the Yanyun Army, will naturally not ignore such a force. After integrating into the Yanyun Army, Liu Hongji's biggest gain was to know the importance of intelligence in warfare. Although he understood this very well before, it was only after he submitted to Li Xian that he really understood what it meant to know oneself and one's enemy.

No one has ever taken intelligence seriously to this extent.

Once the vast military inspectorate is in operation, there are few secrets in the war.

The first thing the military guards who followed Liu Hongji into the grassland after arriving in Saibei was to collect a large number of herdsmen who were familiar with the terrain, and promised them to be their guides. These people have been hiding around the camp of the Tiele people, and once the Tiele people have troops and horses, they will immediately report to the Turkic army.

Zamuhe suffered another loss this time, and the men and horses sent to attack the Turkic royal court were ambushed by Ashina Duoduo and were almost completely wiped out. And the news from his hometown made him even more angry, if this war did not end, he could only retreat to his hometown with his men and horses in embarrassment, which was undoubtedly difficult for the arrogant Zamuhe to accept.

So, he decided to do it quickly.

Defeat the Turks before the spring warms, so that he no longer has to worry about his own tribe. As long as he takes the royal court, kills all the Turkic wolf riders, and suppresses all the tribes that dare to resist him, the entire steppe will be his territory, and as for the loss of his hometown...... Just come back from the tribes of the plunder.

Although Chen Wanrong's several ideas for him in succession did not work, this did not affect Zamuhe's love for this woman. The kind of foxy energy in this woman is something he has not found in the prairie woman. Although there is no shortage of beautiful women on the grassland, there is a lack of coveted softness compared with the women of the Central Plains.

Although Zamuhe is the Great Khan of Tiele, since the Tiele people were driven to the bitter cold land in the extreme north by the Turks, he is the Great Khan, and he has never seen such a Han woman who is so beautiful.

Although his generals persuaded him from time to time, the stubborn Zamuhe still wanted to establish Chen Wanrong as Kedun.

For Chen Wanrong, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

So, even if Zamuhe could tolerate failure, she couldn't tolerate it.

At this time, Chen Wanrong was already enchanted.

If she regarded the Great Sui Empire as an enemy before, then now she hates all the Han people, she would rather let the iron horses of the grassland people break through the rivers and mountains of the Central Plains, and would rather the Han people be slaughtered by the grassland people, at this time, she has been perverted to a terrifying point.

She even hated her own daughter.

If it weren't for Ou Si Qingqing bringing that damn Han to the Khitan tribe, she would still be immersed in the gentle care of two men. One is the man of her childhood sweetheart, and the other is the man who gave it to her family. And that guy named Li Xian killed the first man in her life, Lang Changhong, and abolished her husband's Mohui.

And her unfilial daughter actually threw herself into Li Xian's arms and was willing to let the entire tribe submit to Li Xian's feet. These hatreds made her psychology completely distorted.

In Zamuhe's big tent, looking at Zamuhe's sad face. Chen Wanrong shook her waist like a water snake and leaned over, leaned over to Zamuhe's back, and whispered softly in his ear: "My great khan, in fact, you don't have to worry about the loss of cattle and sheep at all...... I have heard that the people of the people north of the Xilamulun River have not been plagued, but the great Ejin Su Si Xinmi of the people of the people does not have many men and horses in his hands, but there are cattle and sheep. What reason does a weak tribe have not to give up his wealth in exchange for the protection of the Great Khan? ”

Zamuhe's eyes lit up, and he took Chen Wanrong into his arms and gnawed on her white neck: "You goblin!" Always find a way to share my worries. ”

"I am the woman of the Great Khan, who else can I do if I don't think about the Great Khan? The Great Khan could order Su Si Xinmi to come with cattle, sheep and cavalry, and if he didn't come, he would slaughter the tribe that believed in the White Swan. You are the master of the entire grassland, and the power of life and death is in your hands. There is also the Xi people, who have a great hatred for the Turks, but Erich thinks about revenge all day long. ”

"If you want, you can even send troops to Qingniu Lake...... The Khitan army can't stop the iron cavalry under your command, and the Khitan people are also very rich in recent years. ”

"That's your old tribe!"

Zamuhe's movements froze, and he couldn't help but look into Chen Wanrong's eyes.

Chen Wanrong wrapped her hands around Zamuhe's neck and licked his face with the tip of her tongue: "Sweat profusely...... I am willing to give my all for you. ”

Zamuhe laughed and tore Chen Wanrong's clothes open: "You goblin, I really want to eat you in one bite!" ”

"Then the Great Khan will eat me!"

Chen Wanrong smiled with a charming look in her eyes.

"If the Great Khan is willing, I can be a guide and lead the army to Qingniu Lake, most of the Khitan cavalry is in the Ashina Duoduo army, and the defense of the Khitan tribe is very weak...... Great Khan, when your cavalry reaches the Blue Cow Lake, they will pounce on the sheep like a herd of wolves. ”

……

……

"The loss of cattle, sheep and livestock is indeed too great, and the soldiers have to limit their rations...... If we can't think of a way, we will run out of food in less than half a month. ”

Liu Hongji glanced at Ashina Duoduo, who was sitting in the handsome seat, hesitated for a moment and said: "Although General Luo brought a batch of military rations when he went north, it was also a drop in the bucket for the army. Moreover, although the Tiger Ben Heavy Cavalry has unparalleled combat power, its daily consumption is extremely great. ”

Luo Yi, who was sitting beside Ashina Duoduo, nodded, stroked his beard and said, "The tiger and heavy horses under the old man's command are only 8,000 people, but there are more than 30,000 war horses and 16,000 auxiliary soldiers...... Moreover, if there is not enough abundant food, the combat power of the heavy cavalry will inevitably be affected. This is also the key to why the combat power of heavy cavalry is enough to sweep the grassland, but it has not been able to get out. ”

"With the wealth of the Great Sui back then, it still can't support the huge amount needed for tens of thousands of heavy cavalry expeditions. With all the power of the counties of Hebei, it is only enough to feed 8,000 tigers. And it can only be defended, but it is difficult to attack. ”

He turned his head to look at Ashina Duoduo and said, "But don't worry too much, the difficulties we face, Zamuhe also has to face." And he has more troops under his command, and the consumption is greater. This white-haired wind made us suffer heavy losses, but we can still withstand it for half a month. The old man estimated...... Zamuhe couldn't hold out for ten days. ”

Hearing this, Ashinaduo's eyes suddenly lit up: "Old General Luo, in your opinion, if Zamuhe is short of grain and grass, how will you deal with it?" ”

"What else can he do?!"

Luo Yi sneered and said, "Seeing that he is powerful, those large and small tribes on the grassland are attached to the past. When are they not used at this time? They are the equivalent of a flock of sheep raised by Zamuhe! If nothing else, Zamuhe will inevitably put pressure on those tribes to sacrifice their cattle and sheep...... If anyone is disrespectful, he will definitely send troops to slaughter him. ”

"Slaughter a ......"

Ashina Duoduo nodded, as if he had thought of something.

Liu Hongji looked at her, and then looked at Luo Yi: "It seems that I know what to do, but if I do this, it will be detrimental to benevolence and righteousness......"

"Benevolence and righteousness!"

Luo Yi couldn't help but glared at him: "You have been leading the army for more than ten years, and you are also a long-established general, why are you still full of nonsense like benevolence, righteousness and morality, the old man asks you, is it important to fill your stomach, or is it important to be benevolent, righteous and moral!" ”

"This ......"

Liu Hongji smiled and said, "Naturally, the belly is more important." ”

"That's it!"

Luo Yi smiled: "It seems that you have also thought of this method, holy girl, since you are not willing to speak out and be this wicked person first, then simply let the old man do a good job of this wicked man." Anyway, in the Saibei grassland, the old man's reputation has long been vicious. ”

"And ......"

Luo Yi said: "As long as it is not recognized, it can still force those wall grasses to stand on our side." Now we are short of food and grass, and we are also short of people and horses! ”

"Good!"

Ashina Duoduo sat up straight, pondered for a while and said slowly: "War is a disaster for the grassland, and sometimes it can be said to be a storm before the arrival of a calm and stable society. If more people die, the losses of all tribes will be greater, and there will be a longer period of peace on the grassland. Before they recovered, no one had the strength to think about fighting and snatching. ”

"If you can't do it."

Luo Yi hugged his fists and said, "The light cavalry under the old man's command can be done." ”

"There's Old General Lauro."

Ashina Duoduo nodded: "After all...... They are all my subjects. ”

……

……

Since the end of the first month, the situation on the grassland has suddenly changed dramatically. Because of a white-haired wind, both the Tiele and the Turks lacked food and grass. And the Ejins, who were attached to the tribes on both sides, received almost the same news in the next half month.

Their tribe was plundered by the Tielers.

There were about 10,000 Tiele cavalry, and the wind swept through the territory of the tribes on the steppe. Slaughtering tribal herdsmen and looting the few cattle and sheep left after the disaster. These damned Tiele people left the herdsmen alive in the slightest, and even the lambs that were still suckling were snatched away.

Within half a month, there were six or seven tribes plundered by this Tiele cavalry!

The Elen tribe, three hundred miles away from the Tiele camp, was once a vassal of the Turks, and the total population of the tribe was only about 20,000 people. After the Tiele people went south, in order to avoid the danger of the tribe being slaughtered, the tribe Ejin Qinggeltai declared its submission to the Great Khan of Zamuh.

Instead of protecting them, the people of Tekle brought disaster to them.

On the last day of the first lunar month, a cavalry of more than 10,000 Tiele people broke into the camp of the Elren tribe. This Tiele cavalry killed people on sight, ignoring the pleading of the herdsmen who were prostrate on the ground. More than half of the herders in the tribe were killed, and all the cattle and sheep were taken.

Looking at the corpses and the burning tent, Qinggeltai knelt on the ground and burst into tears: "I have already surrendered to the Great Khan of Zamuhe, why do you still slaughter my tribe?!" ”

His questioning voice seemed as weak as his tears, which could not undo the loss of his clan.

The tall general standing in front of him gave him a cold look, but did not speak. He just waved his hand and ordered the army to take all the cattle and sheep away.

At this moment, a woman suddenly screamed: "They are not Tiele, he! ”

The steppe woman pointed at a Tiele cavalry in front of her in horror and shouted, "He said a word from the Central Plains!" ”

Qinggeltai's body trembled violently, and his eyes were full of fear and hatred when he looked at the generals in front of him.

"You shouldn't have said it."

The general who led the army slowly walked to the woman's side, looked into her eyes and said seriously, "Are you a Han?" ”

The woman nodded in fear, then shook her head desperately. She already knew she had made a big mistake, and she would never shout it again if she could get it back.

The general who led the army glared coldly and subconsciously said to the cavalry who returned to the camp to eat meat: "After I go back, I will take twenty military sticks, and next time I will directly cut off your head." ”

The cavalryman gave a military salute with a guilty expression.

"Slaughter...... Don't leave a single one left. ”

The general who led the army looked at the woman and said seriously: "I originally wanted to leave the old people, women and children behind, and it can be regarded as leaving a glimmer of life for your clan...... Don't blame me, you forced me yourself. Although you are a Han Chinese, since you have chosen to settle here, you can only accept the same fate as them...... Although I don't want to kill the Central Plains in a foreign land...... But I didn't have any other choice. ”

"What a wonderful life...... It's a pity that you don't have nostalgia. ”

He waved his hand, and the cavalry, who had already prepared to evacuate, raised his scimitar again.

"No!"

The woman fell to her knees, her eyes full of pleading.

There is no point in pleading.

Slaughter, rivers of blood.
