(Where are the favorites and recommendations?) ）

Three days have passed, and the army has also trained for three days, but these three days are all familiar with the three archer tactics taught by Qin Dong, and they have not officially begun to enter the training stage, and Qin Dong is ready to wait until Saidika before entering the systematic training.

That night, Liu San entered the big tent and reported: "Young master, we have run out of salt!" ”

"Running out? How can it be used so quickly? Didn't we buy a hundred pounds of salt when we went on the road? Qin Dong was very surprised, even if there were a few hundred more people, it would be impossible to consume a hundred catties of salt in a few days, right?

You must know that the salt of this era is very precious, whether in the East or in the West, the extraction process of human salt is very simple, the output is not large, and people can not eat salt, salt can be used as currency in many places, and at the end of the Roman Empire, the Roman Empire also has a special "salt road" to sell salt, the Old Testament also specifically mentions that the food must be salted during the sacrifice, otherwise it can not be used for sacrifice, which shows how important salt is in Europe during this period.

Even though the Roman Empire had specialized salt routes, salt was a luxury for the barbarians of the north, especially the Huns, which was hard to come by and expensive, and could only be purchased in border trading cities.

Liu San replied: "Young master, the salt we brought is basically pickled fish and horse meat, think about it, there are hundreds of horse meat now, and thousands of catties of fish, all of which need to be salted, and all the salt is used up!" ”

"Forget it!" Qin Dong thought about it and felt that he couldn't stay any longer, he had to rush to Saidika, at least it was the border, what was lacking could be bought, and there was no city in the Xiongnu Empire, so there was no place to buy it if he wanted to, and he couldn't buy it, so he said: "Since that's the case, let's leave tomorrow, Batu!" ”

Batu heard the voice and entered the big tent and stroked his chest and said, "My lord, what do you command?" ”

"Inform me to have breakfast early tomorrow morning, pack up our things and leave for Saidica, we can't delay any longer!"

Batu said: "But my lord, we still have more than a hundred wounded, and it is easy to cause the wound to burst due to the bump of the horse!" ”

Qin Dong thought for a while and instructed: "Since this is the case, don't let them ride horses, let them all sit in the carriage, and let those old people and children ride horses!" ”

Batu thought that this would be fine, and immediately agreed: "Yes, my lord!" ”

The next morning, before dawn, the women began to make breakfast, breakfast was a small piece of horse meat, a half-pound salted fish, and a bowl of wild vegetable soup, the fish was not very salty, not so much salt, so you can only sprinkle a little salt on it. This was the food of the Hun cavalry.

After breakfast, everyone packed up their things and packed them on the carriage, Qin Dong arranged personnel to guard within ten miles behind the team, and the left and right sides also arranged their own guard horse teams, and there was also a reconnaissance cavalry team in front of them to go out forty miles to investigate whether there was an enemy situation ahead, check the terrain and so on.

Now Qin Dong can use more than 400 direct combat forces, the elderly, children and women add up to more than 200 people, there are thousands of horses, the number of cattle and sheep has not changed, and the team is much larger after the number of people increases, in order to prevent people from being raided and scattered the team, Qin Dong increased the width of the entire team and shortened the length of the team, anyway, it is in the open grassland, there is no road width limit.

In order to increase the speed of the march, except for the horses, Qin Dong had people cut the weeds the night before and then feed the cattle and sheep the next morning before they hurried.

Within two days, Qin Dong entered Serbia with a team, which was also the territory of the Xiongnu Empire, but there were very few Huns living there, there were multi-ethnic natives who were attached, as well as Ostrogoths and Alans, and the conqueror Romans also lived before, but after the new conqueror Huns came, those original conqueror Romans had long been scared away.

At the gate of Bulgrade, Serbia, at this time, there were more than a dozen horsemen who paid the gate tax and galloped into the city from outside the city, these people wore a variety of leather armor and armor, and some even showed their breasts, some carried huge swords at their waists, some were equipped with scimitars, some hung thin swords, and some were armed with spears, and even weapons were also varied, and these people led a man in a black cloak, and the hat covered the man's head tightly, revealing only two eyes that shimmered with a haze light, The men rode straight to the north side of the city.

Since Serbia belongs to the Balkan Peninsula, the territory here is under the jurisdiction of the Xiongnu Zuo Dadu, King Idika of Skil, and the city of Bulgrade is also governed by the Skir people, where noble officials collect taxes and ordinary people farm.

In the city of Bulgrade, there were two armies, one under the jurisdiction of the lord of the Skir people, whose soldiers were basically Skirs, and a mixed army of barbarians under the jurisdiction of Orlistus, the secretary of state of the Hun Empire. Now these people are coming to the camp of this barbarian army.

Soon, the dozen or so horsemen soon arrived at the gate of the barracks and stopped, and the barracks was noisy, with chickens flying and dogs jumping everywhere, and the noise was endless.

The cloaked man's face became even more gloomy after looking at the situation in the barracks, but he still waved his hand and took the lead in the barracks, and the other dozen or so horsemen also followed in one after another.

This is not so much a barracks as a large market or a slum, there is no gate at the barracks, the whole barracks is too noisy, there are stalls on both sides of the road, there are vegetable sellers, some snacks, some groceries are sold, there are taverns, casinos, prostitutes. Courtyards, blacksmiths, pawnshops, tailors, in short, the sparrows are small, but they are all in place, just like a small city, and there are everyone here, not only soldiers, but also mercenaries, as well as Goths, Alans, Franks, Romans, locals, really a mixture of dragons and snakes.

In a few moments, the knights came to a halt at the door of a rather imposing house, where two soldiers in leather armor stood guard, but they were too lazy to compliment.

The cloaked man waved his head to a knight beside him, and the knight nodded in agreement, and stepped forward and shouted, "What about you General Doarik?"

The two soldiers standing guard saw that these people were menacing, as if they were of extraordinary origin, but they were not afraid in the slightest, and one of the soldiers on the left asked: "The general was drunk last night and has not gotten up yet, who are you?" What's the matter with the general? ”

The knight threw out an iron plate and said, "Wake up Doarik at once and give him this sign!" He saw it and understood."

The soldier took the iron plate in his hand and looked at it, then looked up at the knights, dropped the phrase, "Wait", and walked into the house.

Every time it took a while, I saw a burly barbarian man hurriedly running out, this big man was so burly, wearing a delicate iron armor, carrying a broadsword at his waist, wearing a copper helmet, and the ground was shaking when he ran, this is Doarik's general, commanding the Serbian barbarian army of 5,000 people, don't look at the whole Serbia There are only these 5,000 barbarian troops, but 5,000 people are already a lot in Europe in this era, after all, the million-man war of the Battle of Chalons is impossible to replicate.

When Doarik arrived outside the door, he was about to touch his chest and salute, but when he saw the cloaked man, he immediately raised his hand to stop him, "Let's go in and talk!" ”

"Yes, my lord, please" The barbarian general was so respectful to the cloaked man.
