Chapter 70: The Destruction of the Great Tribes

Xie Gengxin put forward his own opinions: "My lord, our goal of entering the grassland is twofold, training troops and harvesting population, the first plan is conducive to training troops, and the second plan is conducive to harvesting population. ”

Zhang Liao and Zhou Tai, as newcomers, stick to the division and do not express this kind of opinion with a tendency to make a decision; After all, Yan Ruoyu's identity is unknown, and if she has ideas, she will only express them to Ye Teng in private; Wan Hao is charging into battle, but he is a little short of making plans after all; Xu Xian is the leader of the scouts, and he only provides intelligence data, let alone makes conclusive statements.

In the end, Ye Teng considered it again and again and decided to adopt the second plan. After all, ten birds in the forest are not as good as one bird in hand. Eating a large tribe, even if the next harvest is small, will not be in vain to take the grassland.

A large tribe, up to 100,000 elite soldiers, raiding at night, can be wiped out at no cost, if the skills of commanding the battle are more sophisticated, and even the leakage of news can be delayed as much as possible, after all, our side not only takes advantage of the surprise attack, but also the combat effectiveness of the soldiers themselves.

As for military training, as Ye Teng marched north again and again, the vigilance of the grassland will inevitably become higher and higher, and there will be opportunities for military training at any time in the future.

In the end, Ye Teng personally made war arrangements:

1. Everyone entered the space and was sent by Ye Teng to the other party's tent about five miles away.

2. After the troops are transported in place, Xie Gengxin will lead the third regiment to be responsible for the west, Zhang Liao will lead the fifth regiment to be responsible for the south, Zhou Tai will lead the fourth regiment to be responsible for the east, and I will lead the troops directly under me to be responsible for the north, and launch an attack on time at three o'clock in the morning tomorrow. Xu Xian led the scout department to cruise around the periphery and was responsible for hunting and killing the fish that slipped through the net.

3. At three o'clock in the morning, everyone must arrive at the door of the other tribe's tent. Until then, try to get as quietly as possible near your tent.

4. Once before three o'clock in the morning, a troop is discovered when approaching the tent, causing the other party to be alert, and all the troops immediately and decisively launch an attack in advance! The first priority is to control the stables, as long as the Xianbei people are not allowed to ride their horses, we are half the battle.

5. After entering the enemy camp, whoever dares to gather will be killed! Whoever dares to resist is killed! Whoever dares to carry a weapon will be killed!

6. The overall situation of the war has been scheduled, and all the Beiwei Army and Han Army Iron Cavalry are no longer responsible for the follow-up clearance, so they must ride their horses, give priority to pursuing the fleeing enemy, and must not let go of any fish that slips through the net.

7. When the battlefield is finally cleaned up, as precedent, except for the healthy woman and the girl, the rest will not be left, and each general must ensure that every soldier of the first northern expedition must see blood!

At two o'clock that night, Ye Teng appeared on time about five miles west of the target - the Xianbei large tribe, and put down Xie Gengxin and the three regiments; then rushed to the south about five miles, and put down Zhang Liao and the five regiments; About five miles to the east, put down Zhou Tai and the four regiments, and finally arrived about five miles to the north, and put down the troops directly under him and Xu Xian's scouts.

As soon as the directly subordinate troops came out of the space, all the horses were silent, silently advancing to the south as a group, while Xu Xian's scout department retreated slightly north, and then began to move around the Xianbei tribe, preparing to kill the fish that slipped through the net.

The grassland on a spring night was still cold, and the spring cold froze the warriors' iron clothes, and also made most of the Xianbei sentry posts retract into tents.

In the early spring night, faintly visible, between the breathing of the silently advancing warriors and hoof-bound war horses, white gas erupted from between their mouths and noses, and quickly drowned in the air.

Everything went smoothly until three o'clock in the morning, when Ye Teng and the Tuhu Army and Beiwei Army behind him touched the nearest camp tent and had already touched more than a dozen sentry posts, and there was still no silence around.

The soldiers of Pegasus City entered the tent, no longer polite, and took advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to assassinate the enemy in his sleep. All the soldiers seemed so well trained, alternately moving forward in and out of the tents.

After about twenty minutes of this, the neighing of the horses in the west sounded, presumably made by the soldiers of the three regiments when they controlled the stables!

Since this is the case, Ye Teng no longer hesitated, and led the Tuhu Army, the Beiwei Army, and the Han Army Iron Cavalry to ride on war horses and march into the camp! The rest of the infantry poured into the Xianbei camp like mercury!

At the same time, the Xianbei tent suddenly boiled in all directions! There was a shout of killing. Ye Teng led the Tuhu Army and the Beiwei Army, Wan Hao, Yan Ruoyu and others led the Han Army's iron cavalry, and rushed wherever they saw a lot of people, disrupting the enemy's establishment and making it difficult for the enemy to resist in formation.

Therefore, until Ye Teng led the Tuhu army and the Beiwei army to rush to the center of the enemy's camp, he also saw several enemy leaders shouting and directing the chaotic enemy troops running forward and backward. Ye Teng and the Beiwei army were naturally not polite, and they were shot head-on, and the leaders who tried to command were directly nailed to the ground!

Tu Hu Army, Beiwei Army and Han Army Iron Cavalry did not stop, directly charged forward again, rushed less than 100 meters, saw Zhang Liao is leading the Han Army Iron Cavalry to rush to kill, the two sides tacitly staggered, and after a while penetrated the Xianbei camp, and then, turned the horse's head and rushed to kill again.

However, this time, the direct troops were not all transferred, and the Han army's iron cavalry, under the leadership of Wan Hao and others, began to follow the perimeter of the camp to support the scout department to kill the fish that slipped through the net. As for controlling the Xianbei resistance forces in the Xianbei camp that had been passed through the camp several times at this time, it was enough to have Tuhu Army, Beiwei Army, several other Han army iron cavalry and tens of thousands of foot soldiers.

After more than two hours of fighting, by about half past five in the morning, there was no longer any resistance in the Xianbei battalion, and the special troops went out of the camp to chase and kill the deserters.

Ye Teng asked Xie Gengxin and the three regiments to be responsible for collecting materials. Let Zhou Tai and Zhang Liao be responsible for disposing of the prisoners and Han people, because there were almost no recruits in the directly subordinate troops and the third regiment, so the task of killing was given to Zhou Tai and Zhang Liao's subordinates.

Ye Teng began to put all the captured war horses and livestock into the fifth layer of the space. Considering that the space is still too small, all the war horses and livestock enter the space, Ye Teng let them enter a state of hibernation, and the largest number of sheep are directly piled together, anyway, the meat in the space has the preservation effect of never rotting, even if part of it is crushed to death, when it arrives at the territory, it will not affect the meat that it becomes the territory.

After Ye Teng put all the war horses and livestock into the space, the time was already more than six o'clock in the morning, and Xie Gengxin, Zhou Tai, and Zhang Liao's collection of materials and the handling of prisoners had come to an end.

Seeing Ye Teng coming over, Zhou Tai and Zhang Liao's young faces looked a little excited, the two glanced at each other, and finally Zhang Liao, who was younger and less qualified, reported to Ye Teng:

"Lord Qi, the prisoners and Hermes-Epitek have been dealt with! According to the interrogation, at this time, there were about 300,000 Xianbei people and about 25,000 Han people in the large camp, and after a night of killing, escape, and screening, at this time, there were still about 50,000 healthy women, about 15,000 young girls, and about 20,000 Han people. "Zhang Liao is worthy of extraordinary qualifications, although it is the first time to go on an expedition to the grassland and deal with such things, not only does he not have any discomfort, but he also speaks very clearly.

"Well done! Great work, brothers! When you return to the territory, you will be rewarded for your deeds! For these soldiers who followed him on the expedition to the grassland, bleeding and sweating, Ye Teng naturally rewarded him.

The next work is naturally to put all the materials collected by these Xianbei women, Hermes-Epitek and Xie Gengxin into the space, and then eat breakfast on the spot while waiting for the soldiers who are chasing the enemy to come back.
