Three days later, the barbarian camp on the northwest border.

The barbarian commander unexpectedly received an order from the barbarian emperor:

Ask him to withdraw his troops and return to what barbarian empire.

End the war with the Great Qi court.

and gave the barbarian commander a handwritten letter, which can be regarded as an explanation of the reason for his retreat.

Bang!

The barbarian commander slapped his chair heavily, and his eyes showed murderous intent:

"Qi people are really despicable."

He didn't expect that the 100,000 elites of the Northwest Frontier Army were nailed here by him, fighting day and night, with heavy casualties, but in this northwest place, there was still the strength to send another partial division into the territory of the Barbarian Empire to harass the rear.

According to the information he obtained, when this Qi army just entered the barbarian grassland, there will only be 10,000 horses, but it is quite vicious, and the barbarian tribes it passes, regardless of men, women and children, are all cut down and eradicated, leaving no one behind.

Even, they plundered the materials of these tribes, and if they couldn't take it away, they burned it down, leaving nothing for the barbarians.

This method is also quite familiar to the barbarian commander, because when they rob supplies in the northwest, they usually do this way, after breaking through a city, they first carry out a massacre, kill all the people who resist, and bring the rest back to the barbarian land as slaves, and take away all the materials that can be taken away, and those who can't be taken away are also burned with a fire.

This is called draining the enemy's living force.

This time, Wei Fang led the Xu family soldiers into the barbarian grassland, and the methods were indeed ruthless, which was basically similar to the invasion of the barbarian army.

When the barbarian army invaded the northwest and caused all kinds of sins, the barbarian commander didn't think it was nothing, but at this moment, seeing that the tribes in the barbarian empire were extinguished by the army led by Wei Fang, his heart swelled with anger and murderous intent.

Moreover, Wei Fang's means do not stop there.

When the chaos he caused in the barbarian territory became more and more serious, he was finally taken seriously by the barbarian emperor and sent a 10,000-strong barbarian elite to chase and kill, and it was personally led by the third princess of the barbarians, Yuan Wenjun.

These tens of thousands of elite barbarian troops, the same nature as the barbarian army led by the barbarian commander now, can be regarded as the most capable army of the barbarian empire, but it is such an elite army, and it still loses in the face of the Xu family soldiers led by Wei Fang.

According to the battle report, these tens of thousands of horses have been eaten by the other side, with thousands of dead and wounded, and the rest are estimated to have become prisoners of the other side.

Although there are hundreds of thousands of people in the barbarian empire, this level of elite people and horses lost 110,000 in vain, which is not a trivial matter for the barbarian empire, and moreover, the third princess of the barbarian tribe, Yuan Wenjun, seems to have been captured by the other party, and a barbarian princess was captured by the enemy, which is a shameful thing for the emperor of the barbarian empire.

The barbarian commander read the news slowly, calm on the surface, but with monstrous anger surging in his heart.

At this moment, he really wanted to send an army back to the barbarian grassland to snipe the Qi army that had brought shame to the barbarian warriors, kill them all, and wash away his anger with their blood.

It's just that.

The barbarian commander was just thinking about it.

The current situation is that he is confronting and fighting with the elite of the Northwest Frontier Army, and he simply does not have the energy or ability to send an army to snipe at the Wei side.

Because, if the number of people he sent is relatively small, according to the combat effectiveness shown by the Wei side, it is simply to deliver food and give heads to others, and if he sends a large number of people, the strength of his side will inevitably decline, and if he is caught by the commander of the Northwest Border Army, then what will greet him will inevitably be a big rout.

When the time comes, how many of these barbarian elites in their hands will be able to escape back to the barbarian grassland smoothly.

Therefore, although the barbarian commander was angry, although he wanted to kill Wei Fang very much, he was powerless, and he could only be impotent and furious here.

Moreover, this time the barbarian emperor asked the barbarian commander to lead the army back, and the 10,000 barbarian elite cavalry led by the third princess of the barbarian tribe was wiped out only one reason, but the biggest reason was because another enemy of the barbarian empire, the northern barbarian cannibal tribe, had formed an alliance and was invading the barbarian empire on a large scale.

This is the real reason why the barbarian emperor transferred his troops back.

You must know that over the years, the life of the Great Qi Empire has not been easy, and for the side of the Barbarian Empire, it has only taken a defensive position and will not take the initiative to attack the Barbarian Empire.

But.

Another great enemy of the barbarian empire, the barbarian cannibal tribe in the north, has invaded the territory of the barbarian empire, although these cannibal tribes are barbaric, ignorant, and ignorant, but it has to be said that these people are also brave and strong at the same time, they live in a more reckless wilderness, for these cannibal tribes, the barbarian empire is a world of flowers, with everything they need.

Grain, salt, cloth, candles, iron pots, and even the barbarians were all they needed, and the barbarians could kill them for food.

Over the years, the weather has been abnormal, and the lives of these cannibal tribes have become even more unbearable, so once they can't survive, they will take the initiative to invade the barbarian empire, which invisibly begins to intensify the consumption of the barbarian empire's vitality.

Now, a huge alliance of cannibal tribes has been formed and has begun to invade the barbarian empire, and because of the barbarian empire's invasion of the Great Qi court, many barbarian troops have been deployed in the northwest, resulting in insufficient northern troops of the barbarian empire, and now it is difficult to support, so I want to transfer this barbarian army that invaded the Great Qi court back to the north to fight against the cannibal tribe.

Call~

The barbarian marshal took a deep breath, immediately crushed the battle report in his hand, slowly glanced at the northwest frontier army not far away, and finally came back to his senses:

"I'll be back.

"I will conquer you."

After saying this, he immediately called his generals and began to withdraw troops in an organized manner.

……

……

As the barbarian army retreated, the bloody battle triggered by the barbarian invasion finally stopped.

The commander of the Northwest Frontier Army stood on the high sentry tower, silently watching the orderly retreat of the barbarian army, he tightly shook the order flag in his hand, but still did not give the order to pursue.

In fact, it was not that he did not want to take advantage of the retreat of the barbarian army and ordered an attack, and took the opportunity to kill the barbarian army to collapse, but he could see clearly from a high place that although the barbarian army retreated, it was very orderly and orderly, and when retreating, it still maintained vigilance against the northwest frontier army.

At this time, if he catches up, it will be just a bloody battle of equal strength, and when the time comes, it will only kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, so even if he really fights with the other party, the victory or defeat is only five or five, and he is not sure that he can defeat the main force of the barbarian army.

Therefore, the final commander of the Northwest Frontier Army still didn't make up his mind, and slowly watched the barbarian army gradually disappear away and disappear from sight.

And in fact, the reason why the commander of the Northwest Frontier Army did not really attack the barbarian army is something else, that is, in the northwest at this moment, because of the lack of elite suppression by the border army, the civil unrest has intensified, and it has even reached a point where it is difficult to clean up.

Now, now that the barbarian army has taken the initiative to retreat, it is a little irrational to consume each other's strength with them.

The commander of the Northwest Frontier Army had to save some strength and turn around and start targeting the rebels.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, the rebel army is the enemy that needs to be solved the most at present, but for the army in the northwest. As far as the government officials are concerned, they have another great enemy:

Gu is a wealthy family that took advantage of this civil unrest to greatly develop its power.

Now these wealthy families have expanded their armies, occupied territory, and have soldiers, food, territory, strength, and prestige in their hands, and can be regarded as local emperors and small warlords.

These people are a greater threat to the Great Qi Imperial Court than those rebel armies, if they don't deal with these wealthy families in time and let them become bigger, I am afraid that after this northwest land, they will only nominally belong to the Great Qi Imperial Court, but the right to speak is controlled by these large and small wealthy families.

This is the big trouble!

……

……

Ten days later.

Wei Fang led the army of 20,000 tigers and wolves under his command, returned to the city of Beizhou, and the army was stationed in a clearing in the northwest of Beizhou.

And when Wei Fang led the army to camp here, many of the leading figures in Beizhou who got the news also climbed the city wall one after another, watching the Xu family soldiers, and their hearts were moved.

In fact, before Wei Fang actually arrived in Beizhou, these people got the news that Wei Fang was leading 20,000 elite cavalry to return to Beizhou.

Moreover, they also knew the origin of these 20,000 elites, and knew that this was the cavalry team that Wei Fang had trained in the barbarian grassland, fighting for hundreds of miles, and killing countless barbarian tribes.

In addition, they also know another news:

That is, after Wei Fang harvested a huge amount of barbarian tribes on the barbarian grassland and slaughtered countless large and small barbarian tribes, Wei Fang owned a lot of slaves, and these slaves were his logistics team, and transported a large number of barbarian tribe materials back to the newly occupied territory of Wei.

It is said that in Pingyang County, the Wei side sorted out a vacant land and set up many warehouses, which were full of leather goods, grain, cloth, cattle and sheep and other materials.

Originally, after the Xu clan occupied Yan County and Pingyuan County, before the Xu clan could digest these two territories, the Wei side waved troops to occupy a large area north of Pingyang County, but these two places were ravaged by floods and suffered a catastrophe.

These wealthy families all feel that the Xu family seems to be a little inflated, insatiable, and feel that the Xu family just wants to occupy the territory, but they don't know how much energy and resources they have to pay to manage these territories well, they don't think that the Xu family has this ability, they only feel that the Xu family eats too much, and they may be strung to death.

For this kind of scene, everyone is also happy to see it.

After all, after Wei Fang occupied Yan County and Pingyang County, the Xu family had a tendency to become the first wealthy family in Beizhou, which made everyone very vigilant.

Outrageous!

When the time comes, they will all have to pinch their noses to recognize the status of the first wealthy family in the Xu family's northern state.

But after all, I was unhappy.

Now seeing that the Xu family wants to swallow the elephant, they secretly want to see the excitement, hoping that the Xu family can turn over and fall, in this way, the possibility of the Xu family becoming the first wealthy family in Beizhou will be greatly reduced, and everyone is still on an equal footing.

It's just that Wei Fang aimed at the opportunity, and after taking the Xu family soldiers around the grassland, he had such a big harvest and obtained so many materials, so that the Xu family would have the ability to stabilize the newly occupied territory in his hands.

Over time, after the Xu family has completely digested these territories, the name of the first wealthy family in Beizhou is none other than the Xu family.

Now everyone is red-eyed, and there is no way to do it.

Look at the 20,000 elite cavalry in the hands of Wei Fang, if you are really not convinced, the 20,000 cavalry will rush up, and all the thousand-year-old families and century-old wealthy families will be destroyed.

……

……

Among these people, the mood of the governor of Beizhou is the most complicated.

Before the civil unrest in Beizhou, he had no strength to quell these civil unrest, so he gave these wealthy families military power and allowed them to build an army in a bright and bright manner, the purpose was naturally to use the strength of these wealthy families to quell the civil unrest.

At the same time, there is another thought in the heart of the state pastor, that is, when these wealthy families quell the civil unrest, their own strength will inevitably be weakened.

It's killing two birds with one stone.

In fact, before the rise of the Xu family, the plan of the state pastor was generally successful, although those wealthy families eliminated part of the rebel army and occupied the territory, but while occupying the territory, the heritage of these wealthy families has also consumed a large part.

Now, those wealthy families seem to be strong, but they are also the weakest time, and they are easy to deal with.

But.

Zhou Mu didn't expect that this time there was a monster like Wei Fang, only seven days of troops, and successfully occupied Yan County and Pingyang County, this is not counting, a few days later, Wei Fang took advantage of the time and place to occupy the vast territory outside Pingyang Jun County.

Originally, he thought that the Xu family was swallowing an elephant with a snake, obviously he didn't have that strength, and he still wanted to occupy so much territory, but in the end it was just an ending of consuming his own heritage and finally being strung to death.

Xu, there is no need to worry!

But he didn't expect that after Wei Fang went around the grassland, he would gain a lot and get such a strong army.

Now, the form of Beizhou has completely escaped the control of the state pastor, and in his opinion, unless a large army is dispatched, otherwise, the rise of the Xu clan can no longer be stopped.

Moreover, the governor also received the news of the bloody battle between the elite of the Northwest Frontier Army and the barbarian army, and knew that the Northwest Frontier Army had suffered heavy losses after this war.

In addition, for these wealthy families, they can't directly send troops to attack like they did against the rebels, after all, these wealthy families are nominally considered to have contributed to the Great Qi Imperial Court.

Because, they put down the rebellion.

Therefore, if you want to deal with these wealthy families, you have to find a suitable time and find a proper reason, otherwise, if you extinguish a wealthy family, I am afraid that you will be resisted by the entire Northwest Land wealthy family.

In this way, I am afraid that before the civil unrest is calmed down, even greater chaos will be set off in the northwest.

Thinking of this, the state pastor quickly restrained his emotions and said to the left and right:

"Zhu Jun will come with me to greet you.

"Let's all meet this Xu's unicorn."
