Xu Kun looked very impatient: "Field warfare is not good, and defensive warfare is not good, so what should we do?" ”

Yonggang's eyes were condensed, he thought about various possibilities in his mind, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh: "If only we had enough horses." In the past, when I was at Suolong Pass, I heard the veterans talk about the cavalry and archery tactics of the Tiger Clan cavalry against the southern white spear formation. Equip the most elite light cavalry with bows and arrows, let them run back and forth around the white battle columns, without stopping, shoot arrows as they run, go back to replenish when the arrows are finished, and change to another cavalry when they are tired...... That's it, no matter how powerful an army is, it can be consumed alive. ”

After a pause, Yonggang had a look of admiration on his face and added, "This is a classic tactic of the Tiger Clan against whites hundreds of years ago. Later, the white people of the South developed muskets, and mounted shooting did not work. But this approach can be used to solve the problems we are currently facing, alas...... We have no horses, no cavalry. ”

Tianhao has not spoken since his first speech.

This is the cultivation of subordinates. If they decide everything on their own, it will lead them to the idea that "the boss has the idea of everything anyway", which will only cause more problems for the gradually expanding territory and the ever-increasing population.

The heated debate lasted for a long time, and Tianhao smiled contentedly as he looked at the people gathered around the wooden table racking their brains and meditating.

Taking advantage of the fact that people were not paying attention, he quietly retreated, giving them the warm atmosphere.

There is a charcoal fire burning in the room, and you can feel the comfort of feeling it when you stand outside the room. Tianhao pushed the door and walked in, and saw Ayi sitting on a bed covered with animal skins on the side of the fire, and two other women sitting on the chairs next to her.

"What are you talking about?" Tianhao asked with a gentle smile according to his understanding.

The two women hurriedly stood up and saluted Tianhao. They bowed their heads and clasped their hands in front of them, looking restrained. Seeing this, Ayi hurriedly let them out, and she immediately stood up, walked past Tianhao, and closed the door.

Looking at Ayi, who walked slowly with a stomach and a touch of crimson on his face, Tianhao smiled: "What kind of fame are you doing behind my back?" ”

The firelight illuminated Ayi's face, and her complexion was a little dark, but much whiter than when Tianhao first met her. With her left hand, she gently stroked her shy abdomen, and the loose cotton clothes would not restrain the fetus, she reached out and smoothed her hair unnaturally, and whispered: "...... I...... There is a child in the belly, so ...... I brought them in. Tonight...... Later...... They ......"

Her voice was small, obviously lacking in confidence, and she explained very reluctantly.

Tianhao stood there silently, staring at Ayi's side face half-hidden in the shadows.

She's prettier than ever. The girl's youthfulness faded, and the woman's maturity made her more and more colorful. Ayi has always maintained a slim figure, even before she became pregnant. Although the waist is bloated, the slender legs are not out of shape, the overall slenderness, and the collarbone shows a perfect line under the neck.

The two women who had gone out before didn't go far, they just stood outside the door, waiting for Ayi to speak.

They......

Tianhao shook his head, trying not to think about the two strong, fat, big-waisted figures. A very different aesthetic determines that he will never find too many companions from the barbarians. I am already very lucky to have an Ayi, which is probably God's reward for his rebirth. There may be other women entering his life in the future, but so far, Tianhao has not found any opposite sex similar to Ayi.

The aesthetics of this world are terrifying!

"I don't like them, really." He smiled softly, accentuating his tone.

This made Ayi a little anxious, and she was strongly moved to help but fall into Tianhao's arms and sobbed in a low voice: "But...... I was pregnant with a child, and I couldn't do my duty as a wife. You are a man, you have the right to ...... me"

"I don't want any." Tianhao blocked her lips with his fingers, patiently waited for Ayi's emotions to calm down, and gently combed her long hair: "No one can decide my preferences, including you." Don't cry, you've always been beautiful, you're my woman. This is true now, and it will be true in the future. ”

“…… I, I know I'm ugly. Ayi didn't quite believe his words: "Only tall and strong women are good-looking." That's what the old people say. And the priest, who told me the same thing. ”

Tianhao kept shaking his head and said half-jokingly: "Keep you the way you are, if you really want to be like them, I really don't want you." ”

Ayi was very happy, but also a little apprehensive: "Ahao...... Don't lie to me. ”

"I didn't lie to you, really."

The gods are above, and this is true.

……

It's rare to have a time as lively as today.

The whole tribe, all the city lords and village chiefs came. Iron Tooth issued a call order, which the big and small chiefs must obey.

The normally spacious hall was now crowded, with hundreds of chieftains and priests standing under the steps. In order of their different identities, the city lord and the sorcerer are at the front, and the chief and priest are at the back. At this moment, population and power are truly revealed, and the pyramid-shaped accumulation of identities will not change even in barbaric times.

Sitting on a tall throne, Iron Fang was draped in a strangely shaped piece of chain mail: a metal part that connected to both wrists from the shoulders downwards, and a dense array of animal teeth inlaid with the sky upwards.

Most of them are the fangs of the maned bear and the black howling wolf. The longest and sharpest teeth, removed from the roots, are firmly fastened to the surface of the armor, becoming a terrifying and terrifying decoration.

This armor is worn only by Iron Fang during major gatherings. Of course, this thing can't be worn on the battlefield, after all, the symbolism is more important than the defensive ability. As the patriarch of the Steel Tooth Tribe, if you don't have a special costume that matches your identity, it's a joke to say it.

He looked around with a majestic gaze, and let out a menacing roar before the beast was about to hunt: "I think you all know what happened. Gushan, Miquan, and Liankang rebelled, and the rebels took refuge in the Niu people. The matter ...... It must not be done lightly. ”

One of the city lords standing directly at the bottom of the steps suddenly raised his stout right fist, raised his arms and shouted, "Kill them all!" ”

This signal instantly ignited the emotions of everyone in the audience, and the crazy roar broke out in an instant, and the roars one after another were deafening.

"Cut off their heads."

"I'm going to taste the cow people for myself."

"Burn down their stockades and turn all the cattle and rebels into slaves!"

The frenzied roaring hall is like a star concert scene in the era of civilization, but it lacks the glow sticks waving and shaking in the air.

Iron Fang was very happy with this.

He raised his hands and pressed down hard, the shouting gradually subsided, and a pair of red eyes irritated by the wild words gathered on him.

"Very well, you guys showed me courage and determination." Iron Fang felt a hot current surging through his body, and he couldn't resist cutting off the head of a traitor right now, drinking the blood gushing out of the other's body. He didn't think about failure, that kind of thing couldn't happen.

The population of the Niu tribe is as high as several million, which is enough to form a dough crush on the pig tribe. But His Majesty is not a madman, he needs to face threats from other directions, and he is forced to disperse a powerful army, and it is impossible to expand the border dispute into a race war.

Can be a skirmish, confined to the Thunder Cow and Steel Fang. However, it must not be allowed to expand into war, and the Niu and the Pig must at least maintain a superficial peaceful relationship.

This will maximize the advantages of the Pig Warriors. They are not afraid to fight alone, and the odds of winning battles with thousands of men are higher than 70 percent. What's more, this time he also sent his own personal guards...... Iron Fang made up his mind that no matter what the cost, he must fight to pacify the Rock Village, catch all those who dare to rebel, skin them, make them into flags, and hang them on the walls of Steel Tooth City forever.

It is a very good suggestion to send troops according to the proportion of the walled cities in the clan. Skills reduce their own losses, and they can also unite the centripetal force of the race to a certain extent.

That's what the wizard said, and so did Iron Fang.

Of course, the walled cities that followed the troops would definitely have to share some of the spoils of war and get benefits. This kind of thing is normal in the eyes of Iron Tooth, and it is nothing.

At this moment, he truly felt his dignity as a king, with great power to command all directions.

"Whoa!"

When he stood up from his throne, the metal armor draped over his body made a crisp impact that was extremely loud.

Iron Tooth raised his right hand high and swung it downward, letting out the loudest roar in his life.

"Send troops and sweep away the rock village!"

From a distance, he looked like the mouth of some kind of monster, his entire body covered with fangs and sharp teeth, except for his tongue.

……

A few days later, Tianhao received an urgent message from the undercover personnel from Steel Tooth City.

The content recorded on the letter is concise and concise: the number of the Pig tribe currently proved to be 8,351 people, all of whom are heavy infantry, personally commanded by the Iron Tooth King Iron Tooth, with 1,000 personal guards and 2,000 city guards as the core, and the rest of the troops are sent according to the proportion of the walled cities of the Steel Tooth Department. On the day the information was sent, the Pig army was assembling in Steel Tooth City, and the necessary supplies were also being prepared, and it was expected to be ready to leave in five to six days.

As early as a year ago, Pingjun sent people to open a trading house in Gangya City under the banner of the Deer Clan. Of course, the identity documents were facilitated through Lu Qingxi, he had a good relationship with Tianhao, and this kind of small thing was not a big deal in his opinion.

Finding out the details of the Pig army is not as difficult as it seems. The brave people of the Pig tribe never bother to hide it, and they will shout about sending troops to fight and wish the world would know about it. They believe that they can kill any opponent with their own strength, and that their strength and courage are enough to crush any conspiracy, especially in the face of propaganda, which can build momentum for their own side, make the enemy fearful, and may even win without a fight.

Such an idea cannot be said to be wrong. The logical thinking of the pig people is sometimes very simple, and it is also easy to be disturbed by external factors. What's more, their strong combat effectiveness is obvious to all tribes, and it has become a habit to compete to hire pig people to serve their own side in war.

"Eight thousand three hundred and fifty-one ......" Looking at the information in his hand, Tianhao frowned slightly.

The scale of Iron Tooth's troops was significantly higher than he expected. According to the previous estimates, Tianhao felt that about 5,000 was more reasonable. After all, sending troops is not a spring outing, and all aspects need to be considered, especially logistics supply, if there is not enough food, no one will go hungry to fight.

He didn't shy away from Tianfeng, who was standing next to him, and handed over the animal skin letter: "Big brother, take a look, what do you think is the problem?" ”

Tianfeng quickly finished reading it, and his reaction was the same as Tianhao: "More than 8,000 people, Iron Tooth really has so much food?" ”

He then asked suspiciously: "Could it be that our people are mistaken, and the information is wrong?" ”

Tianhao thought for a few seconds and slowly shook his head: "It's not very likely." I'd rather believe in this kind of thing than believe it doesn't. ”

As we all know, the pig people are a tribe that has always been short of food. There are many reasons for this, and every winter the cities send a considerable part of their population out to accept employment in order to get more food. Steel Tooth City is no exception, Iron Tooth can only ensure that his pro-army is well fed, and he can't take care of more. As a result, the pig population cannot grow, and even declines year by year, and the mortality rate is higher than the birth rate.

According to the relevant regulations formulated by Tianhao, the intelligence officers embedded in the various tribes send back information at least once a month. Based on the information sent back before, he came to the conclusion that there was not much food in Steel Tooth City, but he didn't expect that the number of troops sent by Iron Tooth this time was unexpected.

"There must have been some kind of accident." Tianhao walked slowly back and forth in the room a few times, he didn't like this situation out of control: "Forget it, don't think about what it is." It's hard to understand for a while, and it's too late to wait for new information to come back...... Now, let's start the second plan! ”

At first, it was not a temporary idea to hire Qu Tooth from Gu Shanzhai to dig peat. That was the first part of the whole plan. swore to throw himself into the rock village for the Gushan cottage, and also had a plan to deal with the revenge of the King of Steel Tooth. Tianhao carefully considered the causes and consequences, and in response to various unexpected situations, the plan was also changed accordingly, divided into multiple sequences such as the first, second, and third.

The process is not complicated, and he can sit up easily. In fact, it was the relevant subjects of the Military Academy in the era of civilization, and Tianhao was an honor student at that time, with a high assessment score, which was also the basis for his many promotions in the future.

An excited look appeared on Tianfeng's face: "Third child, are you sure you really want to use that thing?" ”

Tianhao nodded seriously: "There are many people brought by Iron Tooth this time, and we must also increase the corresponding number." Fortunately, we prepared in advance last year and this summer, otherwise this time it would have been a big problem. ”

Tianfeng took a deep breath, held Tianhao's hand hard, and lowered his voice with strong excitement and nervousness: "Then the king's side, do we still want to send someone for help?" ”
