Chapter 984: Pacifying the East
"Will you submit?"
Yang Rui asked.
"Humph! I'd rather die than surrender! ”
General Xianbei replied with a cold snort, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.
Seeing this, Yang Rui didn't dwell too much, and directly knocked General Xianbei out with his scabbard, and after feeding a few small black pills, he threw them into the prison of Sky City.
At this time, the two sides were in a state of war, and it was naturally impossible for General Xianbei to surrender immediately, and Yang Rui's question was only procedural, and he first expressed his intention to the other party.
The Xianbei general was captured by Yang Rui, and the Xianbei tribe there was no longer a strong figure, and then the combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan soon completely defeated the remaining Xianbei soldiers.
Except for a small number of light cavalry who were able to escape eventually, the remaining Xianbei tribes were all killed or captured, and this Xianbei tribe was also trampled by the coalition iron cavalry.
The Xianbei settlement area is the largest Xianbei ethnic group encountered by Yang Rui and Gongsun Zhan's combined forces since they entered the eastern Xianbei settlement area, including the Xianbei general, who is also the strongest general encountered.
After post-war statistics, the number of Xianbei NPCs in the place reached more than 100,000 people, if it weren't for the sudden appearance of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zhan's coalition army, Xianbei would have had time to organize more people in the future, and the whole process would have been a lot more troublesome.
When the huge ethnic group is defeated, the harvest is naturally much richer than that obtained by other small and medium-sized ethnic groups.
Aside from other aspects for the time being, there are more than 3,000 copies of the 5th-order light cavalry skill books alone, and according to the distribution principle, these skill books have been collected by Yang Rui.
In addition, the combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Chan also found an excellent horse in the Xianbei settlement area, and because of the abundance obtained here, this good horse was also pushed to Yang Rui by Gongsun Zhan.
"Golden Sweat Horse: 4 rank horses, 16 force value, speed bonus 160% (normal horse speed is the base). The stamina bonus is 160% (based on the stamina of ordinary horses), and the combat power bonus of mounted combat is 6% (on the premise of having relevant riding skills). ”
The attributes of this golden sweat horse are very good, and the grade of the 4th grade is two layers higher than the first horse that Yang Rui gave to Zhang Liao, the Flame Horse.
However, according to Gongsun Zhan, the golden sweat and blood horse is not the best among the same kind of horses, and there are pomegranate sweat and blood horses, heavy jujube sweat and blood horses, etc.
The prefixes "gold", "pomegranate", and "heavy jujube" do not modify the rank of horses, but the color of the "sweat and blood" of such horses. The darker the blood and sweat, the higher the rank of the horse.
From the previous battle with Tatun, Yang Rui had already realized the importance of horses in the battle, so when Gongsun Zhan let the golden sweat and blood horse over, Yang Rui accepted it without prevarication.
Even in the following period, Yang Rui also made the search for excellent horses another important goal during the campaign against Xianbei.
The setting of horses in battle is relatively special, especially the horses of the cavalry, which have a lot of loyalty to their masters, generals and soldiers, once the master is killed. Often, horses are removed from the battlefield and become wild horses again, and it is even more difficult to capture them than to capture them.
Whether it was against Wuhuan or Xianbei, the number of horses captured by the coalition forces in the previous battles was very limited, and there was not a single good horse among them.
In fact, it was more difficult to capture a horse in battle than it was to capture a wild horse, and few soldiers would do it except in the case of a handy affair.
And the golden sweat and blood horse captured this time was also captured in the stable, and it was used by the Xianbei tribe in the future. Pure luck.
"Kill!"
"Kill"
"The Law of Sighs"
“……”
A day later, the combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan once again encountered a large Xianbei settlement. After having an experience, Yang Rui found that the Xianbei settlement was more thorough, and chose to launch a surprise attack on the Xianbei from all sides in the early morning.
Under such circumstances, the Xianbei NPCs in the settlement area were naturally difficult to guard against, and the whole process was much simpler than when facing the Xianbei gathering place of the same scale one day before, and it only took about half an hour before and after. The combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan have taken down the entire settlement, except for a small number of resisters who were killed, most of the Xianbei NPCs were captured as soon as possible.
Among them is a Xianbei general at the level of a controlling general, who should be the leader of Xianbei here, and even Gan Ning took a lot of effort to capture him. It can be seen that the strength of this general is extraordinary.
According to Gongsun Zhan's judgment, the two Xianbei generals that Yang Rui has captured should be Yi Mijia and Su Li, and the population and location of their district market are exactly the same, but neither the two parties nor their clan NPCs are willing to reveal the identities of the two.
In the second large-scale Xianbei gathering place, Yang Rui once again harvested thousands of good horses, but the grade was not too high, and none of them could be compared with the golden sweat and blood horses, which made Yang Rui feel a pity.
It can also be seen that BMW and Liangjiang are similar, and their numbers are not too much, and there are many prerequisites for obtaining them.
The last large force in the eastern Xianbei - Xianbei of the Que Ji Department also surfaced on the morning of the third day, and Que Ji himself was also very strong, able to fight the two generals under Gongsun Chan without falling behind, and finally Gongsun Chan also took it down from the side.
Xianbei of the Que Ji Department is very easy to distinguish, because he learned the news of the attack of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan in advance, he actually took the initiative to send troops against the banner, and prepared to unite the surrounding Xianbei tribes to fight against Yang Rui's army, but due to time relations, Que Ji did not expand the strategic intention, otherwise Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan would really have to spend more effort to deal with it.
However, it was just a matter of spending more effort, with the relatively scattered distribution of forces in the eastern Xianbei and the limited number of generals, it would be difficult to resist the combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan no matter what.
Rao is like this, when Yang Rui took advantage of the convenience of Sky City to sweep away the eastern Xianbei in three days, or made Gongsun Zan surprised again, according to the normal speed, it is difficult to say that the Xianbei in the area has been pacified, and it is even difficult to say whether he can set foot in the entire area within the corresponding time.
The eastern Xianbei was peaceful for three days, and Yang Rui and Gongsun Zhan stopped again to rest for most of the day, and then went to the two Xianbei forces further west.
In fact, with the Sky City as a transport tool, there is no need for the soldiers to be too tired, not to mention that in the process of pacifying Xianbei in the east, all the troops other than cavalry have basically not been put into use?!
Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan stopped the army, just to let the cavalry mounts ease a little. (To be continued...... )
