"Run? Did he run? What do you do with your swords, guns, bows and arrows? If you dare to run, kill them all, and send them directly to the tooth tent to save me trouble! ”

With Donnarumma's roar, Calabria hurried out, only to be stopped by Maignan before heading out.

"Patriarch, why bother to fight with Calhanlu, follow his wishes."

"What do you mean, Maignan?"

"Letting them clear a path to the tooth tent in the ice and snow is obviously difficult for the strongmen, and it will inevitably make the other subordinates who have been taken in uneasy!"

"And what do you mean?"

"He wants to go to the tooth tent, just let him go......"

“？”

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Calhanlu thought that Donarumma might be angry, he might be furious, and he even thought that he might order him to be killed in a fit of rage.

He was well prepared for this.

If Donnarumma wants to crack down hard, then he will take the opportunity to sell miserably, further spreading Donnarumma's image of brutality, selfishness, and incompetence.

If Donnarumma admits it, then he doesn't mind really leading the people who followed him to the tent, after all, in his opinion, if they are all under the fence, Kedun is much better than the already troubled Deedbish in front of him.

Of course, if Donnarumma uses force to kill him directly, then he Charhanlu will definitely not sit still.

Donnarumma wants to kill himself, and he also wants to kill him to occupy the magpie's nest and monopolize the Qibibu.

Anyway, the ambush people are ready, as long as Donnarumma, a fool with great ambitions and talents, dares to do it directly, his own people will not be soft, as long as they dodge the first wave of attacks, it will definitely not be themselves.

When the time comes, it's a big deal to fight here, anyway, after half of the people die, the remaining supplies are enough for all the remaining people to survive this winter!

"The patriarch has made a decision, it is wrong to leave the tooth tent in times of danger, leave Kedun, reattach the tooth tent, he will personally ask Kedun for help!"

Haha, this is admitting defeat, Calhanlu's eyes are full of smiles, Donnarumma admits it!

In this way, Donnarumma, the patriarch, will continue to decline in status and prestige among the Chebi tribe according to his own plan, step by step, and he will not need to become his puppet without Kaichun.

Who would have thought that he, who had once become a lost dog, would be able to regain control of a large tribe with more than 10,000 people who control the strings, and he seems to see the glory and light of his desire to regain the Western Turks.

However, just when Calhanlu felt that his dream was about to come true.

"But, Calhanlu, all this has nothing to do with you Turkic Ottomans!"

Maignan, who had come with Calabria, was not too loud, but it sounded like thunder in Calhanlu's ears, and this remark that was completely unexpected, made Calhanlu feel very bad.

"Back then, you guys lost their homes, lost their pastures, lost their flocks, and it was the patriarch who took pity on you and took you homeless, took you in, gave you food, gave you clothes, gave you pastures, gave you sheep, cattle and horses, so that you could survive in this cold grassland and not become food for wild wolves."

"I have inherited the favor of the Qibi Department and the favor of the patriarch, and now that the heavy snow has fallen for ten days in a row, the Qibi Department has encountered a crisis, and the consideration is not how to tide over the difficulties with the Qibi Department, but to turn around and leave, this kind of thing can only be done by the wild wolves on the grassland."

These words of Maignan were completed beyond the comprehension of Calhanlu, and at this moment Calhanlu's body began to tremble incessantly, what Maignan said was an ironclad fact, even he could not refute it, he could not say that he had not received the favor of the Chebi Ministry, let alone deny what he had just said to lead the people out of the Chebi.

It is true that the Uighurs did not pay as much attention to etiquette and morality as the Tang people, and even the Uighurs were synonymous with Erwuzai, but they were not fools.

The Qibi people, who were originally led by Calhanlu, suddenly realized that what their elders said was not bad at all, these were reined in, and the aliens harbored evil intentions!

Originally, when he had the initiative, he could naturally speak cleverly and divert the attention of the Chebis, but now Maignan simply told the truth......

At this moment, seeing that the Qibi tribesmen, who had been dizzy by themselves, nodded their heads in agreement with Mainan's words, Calhanlu suddenly felt a strong sense of powerlessness, however......

"There is a saying in the Tang Dynasty that people go to high places, and water flows to low places!"

"You are not the people of my Qibi Ministry, and it is not surprising that you are not the same line as my Qibi Ministry, the patriarch never expected you to be loyal to the Qibi Ministry, and now that you are leaving, the patriarch will not stop you, let alone keep you!"

“”

"Elder Maignon," at this time, Calhanlu was no longer as tall as before, his body was half shorter, and even his title had changed to the original elder.

"I also have good intentions, now the tribe is in an extremely bad situation, after all, the patriarch has focused on fighting for hegemony before, did not prepare materials for the winter in advance, and took the initiative to abandon the tooth tent ......"

"The patriarch has realized his mistake, and realized that he should not have listened to your slander and turned his back on Kedun and betrayed the tooth tent, so the patriarch has decided to go to the tooth tent to plead guilty to Kedun in person, so the patriarch has decided to change his mistakes, so from now on, you are no longer from the Qibi tribe."

There was no opposition, no repression, no threat, no killing, and after explaining the truth clearly, he directly chose to be exiled, and Calhanlu was directly stunned, it shouldn't be like this!

"Elder Maignon......, this ......"

However, Maignan simply ignored Calhanlu's words.

"Since you are no longer from the Qibi Division, you should also take back what the original patriarch gave you, but in such a cold and snowy place, if you really take everything away, it will be no different from sending you to death."

"You can take away horses, clothes, and protective weapons, whether you want to go to the tooth tent, or you go to the new khan, even if you want to cross the desert to Datang, no one will restrain you, but ......"

"But from now on, you will have nothing to do with my Qibi tribe, and the patriarch and the Qibi tribe will no longer accept you wolf-hearted guys."

"Elder Maignon......, this ......"

Maignan looked at Calhanlu, who was completely panicked and his true nature was revealed, with disgust and disgust.

This wolf-ambitious guy had bad intentions from the beginning, and flattered, instigated, fanned, and confused his own patriarch, but his young patriarch ate a set.

In less than two years, as the oldest tribe of the Tiele tribes, the Qibi tribe, which had been inherited for more than a hundred years, was almost destroyed because of this bastard of unknown origin.

If it were possible, Maignan would like to break this wolf-ambitious guy to pieces, but that would directly bring huge hidden dangers to the already swollen Chebi, and even completely cut off the Chebi.

His gaze changed from disgust and disgust to hostility and hatred, suppressing his anger, Maignan said with a murderous aura.

"From now on, you have two hours to pack up your belongings, and after two hours, you Ottomans, you must get out of the Chebi tribe and get out of the pastures of the Qibi tribe!"

"Also, everyone else can make a choice, those who don't want to stay in the Qibi Department can follow these people and leave, but if they stay, if anyone dares to question the patriarch, hum!"

"Calabria, keep an eye on them, if they remain in the tribe within two hours, kill them!"

With that, Maigon strode out without looking back, while the guards of the Chebis, whom Calabria had already begun to command, had drawn their swords, and took up their spears and spears, aiming at the center of Calhanlu and the handful of Turkic tribes he led who called themselves Ottomans.

Looking at Maignan's departing back, feeling the sharp knives and guns around him, Calhanlu knew that he no longer had any choice, or that the old guy was waiting for him to make the wrong choice.

Two hours later, a procession of about five or six hundred people, mainly middle-aged, youthful, and children, appeared at the gate of the main tent of the Qibi Division, and the first person was none other than Charhanlu.

Outside of this group, the eyes of a large number of Qibi herders gathered, and Calhanlu could even hear the undisguised discussions of the Qibi herdsmen.

"It's these wolf-hearted guys who don't appreciate the kindness of the patriarch, but ......"

Listening to this harsh voice, looking up, and seeing the endless snow under the sun outside, there was infinite despair in the heart of Calhanlu, who did not know where the future would go.

Looking back at Donnarumma, who looked at Donnarumma, who looked at him with hatred, and the Chebi warriors with spears and bows and arrows pointed at him, Calhanlu was the first to leave the main tent.

The group followed, walking knee-high in snow and slowly heading east, in the direction of the Uighur tent.

However, what neither Donnarumma, Magnan nor Calhanlu of the Chebi tribe knew was that all this fell into the eyes of the scouts of the Changying Army lurking in the vast snowfield.

As soon as the team led by Calhanlu left the main tent of the Chebi, one of the scouts lurking near the main tent silently withdrew from his observation position.

A quarter of an hour later, the scout rushed out of breath to the igloo directly south of the main tent of Chebi, gasping for breath as he spoke.

"What's the length, there's a ......, there's a ......, there's a situation!"

"Liu Yuming, take a breath and speak slowly!"

Hearing this, the scout, who was panting, was startled, raised his head suddenly, and with a "Peng" sound, his head slammed directly on the roof of the snow room.

"Ouch, oh~, boss, why are you here?"

"The army is going to attack, I'll come over to see the situation, and by the way, I'll arrange the task, that's not in a hurry, what do you say first?"

"Oh, the team of about six or seven hundred people suddenly left from the Chebibu, looking in the direction of roughly northeast."

"Six or seven hundred? Northeast? What's in the northeast? That's a tooth tent, what are these Deeds going to do? ”

"The purpose is unclear for the time being, boss!"

"What kind of troops are they, cavalry? Foot soldiers? Or is it something else? ”

"Boss, it's not a soldier, I can see it clearly, men, women, children, there are war horses, there are mules and horses, it's very miscellaneous!"

"Men? Woman? And kids? What kind of combination is this TM, is it ......, is there an old man? ”

"No, absolutely not, I stared at it for a long time, except for some children, the rest of the people are very strong, definitely not the old and weak look like they are!"

"There are men, women, children, and no old people, what kind of combination is this......

The speaker's brow furrowed.

Since he was ten years old, he began to hunt in Qinling, and then he fought for so many years, and he had seen so many wars, after the Changying Army became an army, after becoming the lieutenant general of the reconnaissance battalion of the Changying Army, although he was unwilling, he still sorted out a lot of information, but Li Erniu had never seen such a strange team.

However, although Li Erniu didn't know what was going on, such a team that suddenly left the main account of Qibi was a very good opportunity for the Northern Expeditionary Army, which was already preparing to launch an attack on Qibi.

Although the reconnaissance battalion had monitored the main tent of Qibi in all directions and at all times, they could not enter after all, so they could not understand the real situation of the other party.

Due to the snow, the cavalry of the six battalions changed from the main force of the pursuit battle to the transport team and the logistics team, while the engineer battalion, as a technical auxiliary, generally did not engage in direct combat, so only ten battalions of soldiers could really be put into battle.

In the current situation, Guo Rong's plan is very simple.

The army advanced as fast as it could to the advance camp sixty miles from the Chebi, while the reconnaissance battalion set up supply points and camps along the way, arriving at the position before the Chebibu began its large-scale activities.

The sappers of the three battalions were to enter the attack position in advance during the night, and within an hour of the dawn of dawn they had to assemble at least twenty eight-oxen crossbows.

After the start of the battle, the eight-bull crossbows that had been arranged in advance began to bombard, not seeking to kill or injure, but only to open the gap in the opponent's rudimentary fence and gate.

Then, eight battalions of soldiers, 8,000 foot soldiers, assaulted frontally, 2,000 foot soldiers plus 5,000 cavalry were on standby for backup.

Although everyone thought that there was no suspense in this battle, the 30,000 Uighurs of the Qibi tribe were absolutely powerless to fight back under the attack of 8,000 elite Tang infantry soldiers.

However, in the Battle of Yunzhou, the reconnaissance battalion, which played an amazing role in the armed parade in Youzhou in the north, already had its own rules, or in other words, Guo Rong's idea of striving for stability, perfection, and perfection had a very important impact on the reconnaissance battalion.

The general offensive was about to start, and the elite of their reconnaissance battalion did not even know about the inside of the army, and this kind of status quo of confidants not knowing the other made the military academy of the reconnaissance battalion, including Li Erniu, feel a huge shame.

Therefore, Li Erniu, who could have moved forward with the army, appeared at the front line, just to see if he could find an opportunity to observe the enemy camp at close range and understand the internal situation of the enemy camp.

As a scout commander who can properly arrange the plan for the Yunzhou raid, Li Erniu understands that it is obviously what Guo Rong said, and it is better to take the initiative to attack when he expects to miss the opportunity.

No matter what this team is going to do, even if it is to pay homage to the eldest princess, they have to stop it first, as long as they stop this part of the people, they can understand the internal situation of the Qibi Department that has been closed by the heavy snow for more than ten days through this part of the people, so as to know themselves and their opponents.

It took almost less than ten breaths to think, and Li Erniu ordered.

"Liu Yuming, you come with me, and the rest of the people continue to take shifts!"

The order was given to command, Li Erniu took Liu Yuming,

After an arduous trek for half an hour, Li Erniu, the commander of the reconnaissance battalion of the Changying Army, arrived at a temporary camp three miles away, where a cooking class, a medical class, and two reconnaissance classes were stationed.

When he came to the camp, the first time he came, Li Erniu blew the copper whistle,

"Both——! ——! ——! ”

Accompanied by three whistles, there was also the sound of Li Erniu's loud voice.

"Everyone's urgently assembled!"

In less than a hundred breaths, seventy or eighty people had already gathered in front of Li Erniu and inspected the people in front of him.

"Liu Minquan, you take one of your people, escort Liu Yuming to the advance camp, report the current situation here to General Guo, and let General Guo send at least three thousand cavalry reinforcements."

"Fan Biao, you take the cooking class and the medical class to expand the camp, prepare to eat, and at the same time prepare to accept the wounded, mainly frostbite!"

"The rest, follow me and chase along the northeast!"

With Li Erniu's order issued, the originally relatively peaceful temporary camp became busy.

However, before the pursuing detachment could depart, the scouts at the reconnaissance posts at three o'clock, four o'clock, and five o'clock directly east of the Chebi camp also hurried to the temporary camp as a command position.

With the news from the reconnaissance posts in these directions, it can be determined that there is indeed a mixed group of soldiers and horses of less than 1,000 men who have left the main tent of Qibi.

Second, the direction of the other party's travel was corrected, from the initial northeast direction, to Dongbian South, and the location of Mobei in his mind was commanded, Li Erniu direction, if he continued to move forward in this direction, it would be either the tooth tent of the eldest princess, or the Baye Ancient Tribe.

Judging from the mixed composition, there is a high probability that this team is not a combat mission, and this point is determined, Li Erniu ordered not to carry heavy long soldiers, unload heavy armor, and carry three days' rations, heating materials, horizontal knives, bows and arrows and other equipment The pursuit detachment pursued lightly.

Immediately afterwards, under the leadership of Li Erniu, such a pursuit team composed of forty elite scouts began to pursue in the direction of the Calhanlu headquarters under the revised command.

In fact, moving through knee-deep snow is a very difficult thing for both Calhanlu and Li Erniu, but it is easier for a scout to move lightly than for Calhanlu to drag his family.

An hour after the pursuit began, according to the news compiled by the scout Liu Yuming and several outposts, the scouts quickly discovered the traces of the other party, a path trampled by people and horses.

After all, under this kind of snow, it is almost impossible to hide the tracks.

Starting from just after noon, in just two hours, the sun has begun to slowly set in the west.

In the last rays of sunset, Li Erniu's pursuing detachment found the bones of a war horse whose flesh had been almost scraped clean on the side of the road.

Although everything has been frozen, the bones are fresh, and the blood is also fresh, and Li Erniu can be sure that he has caught up with the other party.

At the same time, after carefully observing the command, Li Erniu found a trace of a broken right front leg on the skeleton, and then he understood the reason why the war horse would fall into this field.

As we all know, horses are different from other animals, whether other animals are cats, dogs, cows, sheep or even people, a broken leg does not mean death, and a broken leg is equivalent to a death sentence for a horse with one hand.

It's just that a horse that broke its leg because it slipped would be stripped clean to such an extent, and even blood and flesh would not be spared, which was beyond Li Erniu's expectations.

Li Erniu could only think of one thing, the condition of this team was not good, so that all the materials had to be exerted to the limit, which strengthened Li Erniu's initial judgment that the other party was not shouldering a combat mission.

Looking at the sun that had completely set, and looking at the fiery clouds in the snow behind him, it was obvious that the other party did not have the ability to march long distances at night in the snow, and perhaps the other party was resting now.

Just now he wanted to give the order to speed up the march and try to catch up with the other party when it was completely dark, Li Erniu suddenly felt that he was alone "grunting".

In the Changying Army, if there is anyone who most recognizes the somewhat conservative military thinking brought by Guo Rong, then Li Erniu, who was born in Orion, can be said to be the best.

For Guo Rong often said that good fighters have no outstanding merits, Li Erniu is even more like a treasure, and Li Erniu also did this, and all this brings a cautious, careful, and complete details of the cross-era scout.

Looking at the scouts around him, Li Erniu shook his somewhat stiff body, anyway, the other party couldn't run, there was no need to take his brother's life to grab this time.

It doesn't hurt to give your scouts a little rest, and today has a full night.

Li Erniu knew that tonight was a better opportunity than now, and Li Erniu didn't believe that in this era, someone was better at night combat than these elite scouts under him.

Looking at several officers beside him, Li Erniu spoke.

"Li Yan, you take a few people forward to determine the other party's location, pay attention to be careful, don't be discovered by the other party, determine the other party's camping command, withdraw immediately, no need to monitor."

"Understood!"

"Everyone is left to clear a clearing, then light a fire, cook, and wait until after sunset, when you have enough to eat and drink, and then we will attack!"
