Chapter 55: Attack the enemy and save it

"Father! Where is the closest tribe to us? Did they send someone to intercept us at the behest of the Evil King? If so, let's take torches and go to their tribe! "Yes, such a tactic will make one tribe hate the Han mission, but it will also make other tribes fearful!

Is it to continue to intercept in the West in order to make a merit in front of the Kun Evil King? Or go back to your own tribe and keep the lifeblood of your tribe's survival next year! It was not a difficult choice for these tribal leaders.

"If you attack the enemy, you will be saved, and the lord has the essentials of the art of war!" Without waiting for the father of Tangyi to speak, Chen Qingzhi high-fived and praised, burning the enemy's grain and grass has always been a killing move in the confrontation between the two armies, and when Cao Cao broke Yuan Shao, he burned the grain and grass that Yuan Shao hoarded in the black nest to win a big victory, Chen Qingzhi must have done this kind of thing back then!

The Xiongnu needed a large area of pasture for grazing, so each tribe was far apart, except for a few primitive cities such as the Xiongnu royal court and the Hutu city, there were not many places where large-scale population gathered! In addition, the young and strong people in the tribe were all gathered by the Kun Evil King to intercept them! Therefore, the defense of each tribe is not very strong! With these nearly 100 young people raiding them, it is entirely possible to succeed!

And the purpose of their battle is not to kill or injure the enemy, but to burn their reserves of hay, which is simpler! It's easier to set fires in today's dry weather than to put them out!

"Early tomorrow morning, let the soldiers prepare more torches!" Li You instructed, the Gansu generation has oil production, but unfortunately it can't be found in a hurry now! Otherwise, it's even more enjoyable.

It would be nice to find ignitions such as sulfur, but unfortunately they didn't bring them with them! However, there are other substitutes on the grassland, and the fat of cattle and sheep can barely play a substitute role.

The next day, Li You divided the team into two groups, one group of healthy people went around to look for hay, wooden sticks and other ignition materials, and the other group soaked the hay in grease, and then dried it and trapped it on the wooden sticks to make torches! The col is filled with the unpleasant smell of boiling fat, which makes people want to vomit.

And the cousin's father was sent by him to search for traces of the nearby small tribes, and the first battle after making a plan must be a good start! An incomparably profound lesson was taught to the Huns.

However, these arsonists completely ignored the unpleasant smell of grease, and excitedly made torches one by one, and said fiercely, "A certain person is from Yunzhong County!" was burned and looted by the Huns who invaded the border wall, and the house in a certain house was burned to the ground, and I was the only one who died! Now there is finally a chance to make these Huns often set on fire! ”

"Good! When you choose your target, you'll be the first fire! Li You smiled and encouraged, "Don't look at those Huns running diligently now, when we put a few fires, they will definitely quickly retreat back to the tribe to prevent us from going again, and at that time, we can continue to travel west!" ”

"Well, a certain family fought with people when they were rangers in Chang'an! If you can't beat it! So he shouted, Lao Tzu's brother is now on his way to your house! Those guys will be stunned for a while when they hear this, and at this time they will take the opportunity to run for their lives! Some people also took out their own troubles back then to serve as evidence for Li You's plan.

"Wait for the deputy to come back! Let's discuss how to set the fire to the fun! Seeing their passionate appearance, Li You nodded secretly in his heart, morale can be used!

"Envoy, they may be able to hold out for a while longer after burning the hay, so we might as well burn their tents too! If it's freezing today, and there is no tent to shelter from the wind and cold, I don't think they can survive even three days! "That soldier from Yunzhong County just now showed a cruel smile!" So-and-so's nephew froze to death after the Huns burned down the house! Now so-and-so wants them to pay back tenfold and hundredfold! ”

"Good! But you'll have more torches to prepare! Li You stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder, "What's your name, I'll give you credit when I return to Chang'an!" ”

This kind of encouragement method that was common in later generations has been flattered to this day, and the soldier hurriedly bowed his hand and said, "Villain Xu Yannian, thank you for your love!" ”

"Longevity, that's a good name! With this name, you can also return to Chang'an safely from the Western Regions! Maybe we'll all be in your light! Li You praised that in the early Han Dynasty, Huang Lao's learning was prevalent, which led to the prevalence of the idea of prolonging life, so that the people of the Han Dynasty were quite fond of words such as "prolonging life", "prolonging life", "Peng Zu", "long live" and so on.

In the future, he sang for Emperor Wu: "There is a beautiful woman in the north, peerless and independent, one cares about the city, and then the country." Rather than know the city and the country, it is difficult to get a beautiful woman. Li Yannian; and asked Wang Zhaojun for bribes but couldn't, so he deliberately painted her ugly and caused Wang Zhaojun to go to the Xiongnu and kiss Mao Yanshou, the painter.

"Hahahaha!" Everyone laughed in unison, making Xu Yannian red-faced. The mood of everyone, who had been tense for several days, was finally relaxed, and their originally stiff faces became relaxed!

At sunset, Tangyi's father and his party also returned to the mountain col, and he took a branch to draw the surrounding situation on the ground, "Envoy, there are three Xiongnu tribes around!" Respectively here, here, and here! ”

"This tribe is the closest to us, there are only more than two hundred people in the clan, it seems that they have not followed the signs of the Kun Evil King to send out the young and strong people in the clan! The second tribe is a little further away from us, and there are about 400 people in the tribe, and there are not many young people! Xu is preparing to intercept us in the west! The last tribe has the largest number of people, and there are still more than a hundred young people in the tribe to guard against it! He told Li You the results of the investigation one by one.

"The first tribe doesn't have to worry about it! Letting them go is just enough to let the other tribes know why we burned their hay and tents! Li You nodded heavily at the remaining two tribes, "As for these two tribes, they must not be let go!" When it's done, we'll go and give them some color! "Hope they like this gift the most! In winter, how pleasant it is to bake and roast the fire!

"Tomorrow one more day, the day after tomorrow will be all restored! We'll have some more torches and visit the second tribe early the next morning!" Father Tang Yi turned his gaze to Pan Feng, "Lord and General Chen are waiting for our good news here!" It is enough for General Pan and I to lead the people! ”

"The day after tomorrow, General Chen is here to take care of the wounded, and I will take people to set fire with you!" How could you miss such a lively event? And Li You vaguely felt that the more battles he participated in, the better it would be for him.
