A herder stood up.
Zhang Qi looked at them and nodded with satisfaction.
"You, come forward and speak."
He shouted as he pointed to a much stronger Hun man in the crowd.
The man froze for a moment, then stepped out of the crowd.
Looking at him, Zhang Qi opened his mouth and asked, "Looking at your appearance before, are you a soldier?" Can you have an official position? ”
The man looked at Zhang Qi, opened his mouth, lowered his head and said humbly: "Back to the nobles, the little one is serving as the chief of the army under the Zuo Tu Qi tent." ”
"Oh."
Zhang Qi glanced at him with interest, and then looked at the crowd, this time the raided Atai Department had a lot more men than the previous tribe, this is a ready-made soldier.
"Okay, since you used to be the captain, then you are still the captain!"
Zhang Qi was directly appointed, and then looked at the crowd and shouted: "But there are still soldiers? ”
With one person as the foundation, the remaining Hun men also stood up.
One person respectfully said to Zhang Qi: "Nobleman, I am a horseman." ”
Zhang Qi nodded and gestured behind him: "Return to the team." ”
"Yes!"
The man who opened his mouth was very excited, as a Hun cavalryman, he naturally knew that there was a natural difference between soldiers and herdsmen.
More and more people came to Zhang Qi to recommend themselves, and Zhang Qi nodded and asked them to return to the team.
After a while, seven or eight people gathered behind Zhang Qi, all of whom were Hun cavalry who had fought with Zuo Tuqi.
The flames of Ataibu are still burning, and the female soldiers have lifted their guard, and now they are leading the women of Ataibu to dismantle the yurt.
The minions, on the other hand, went to the slave dwellings of the tribe, who had been slaves before and had experience in how to bring slaves into the ranks.
A night attack, Zhang Qi's army was directly expanded by more than half, and the ready-made Hun cavalry of eight people were unified under Zhang Qi's account, led by the commander of the army who was pointed out by Zhang Qi before, and more than 30 slaves were recruited, all of whom were incorporated into the servant army, led by the eagle.
The tribes on the grassland have never lacked bows and arrows, and after a while, Zhang Qi armed these people, and the melee weapon could not be done for each person, but everyone had a horse bow behind their backs, and they carried two or three bags of arrows around their waists.
Although they can't fight any tough battles now, they can still shoot a few arrows if they are strong.
In the Atai Division, the corpses were piled up together as usual, and all the treasures, food, and materials were brought out.
The Ataibu were no better than the tribe that Zhang Qi had plundered before, and they were not rich living on the edge of Hulun Lake, and their population was greatly underpopulated.
After the chaos ended, Zhang Qi sent someone to count the number of people, and there were only more than 100 women left in the Atai Division, and there were only seven or eight children, which was not at all comparable to the people in the previous tribe.
Zhang Qi was riding on an off-road horse, and Ataibu had been completely destroyed by him, and now he only needed to wait for the eagle that counted the cattle, sheep and horses to come back and report that he could set off again.
Soon the eagle came running on horseback.
"Qi, it's clear, there are more than 3,000 cattle and sheep, and nearly 100 horses."
Zhang Qi pondered for a moment when he heard this, and then commanded the eagle: "Take your people and bring the cattle, sheep, women, and children back to the camp." ”
"In addition, when I go back, tell Hui and Lu Mu to scatter these people and mix them with the people before."
"No."
Ying responded, and then looked at Zhang Qi with some twist: "That.. Kai, you really won't let me go with you? ”
In the eagle's heart, he still wanted to continue to follow Zhang Qi to rob other tribes, and he wanted to go into battle to kill the enemy more than to transport supplies.
Zhang Qi looked at him amusedly and shook his head: "Among these people, I trust only you the most, you said that you don't transport things back, who do you want to transport?" ”
"Hey, hey." The eagle monster laughed embarrassedly, but he was very happy in his heart, too, Qi handed over such an important job of transporting supplies to him, which was to trust himself from the bottom of his heart.
"Leave it to me, I'm sure I'll get people and things back to the camp safely."
"Well, let's go, if anyone wants to escape on the way, don't hesitate, just kill it."
"In addition, if the food is not enough, kill the cattle and sheep, don't be reluctant, there is me."
Zhang Qi patted him on the shoulder and said lightly.
Soon, the Atai Department was swept away, and all the cattle and sheep were driven to the direction of the Great Xing'an Mountains by the herdsmen who returned to the Shun, and the cold wind at night was cold, and Zhang Qi distributed all the furs of the Atai Ministry.
The eagle went away with the minions, and their figures quickly disappeared in the night.
Seeing them leave, Zhang Qi coughed lightly: "Who's that, yes, it's you, come here." ”
His hand tapped with the man who had been the commander of the Huns before.
The man ran in front of Zhang Qi and knelt on one knee: "Master! ”
"Where's the closest tribe to here?"
"One hundred and thirty miles to the southwest."
The man answered Zhang Qi's question with a respectful face.
"Southwest...."
Zhang Qi narrowed his eyes slightly and thought for a moment, and then shouted loudly: "Everyone sort out their equipment, replenish their arrows, and change horses!" ”
With Zhang Qi's order, the Atai Department was busy again, except for the cattle and sheep that were taken away by the eagle, all the horses Zhang Qi stayed here for transfer.
Soon, Zhang Qi and the others completed the integration, and after igniting a fire in the Atai Division, they followed the direction of the Xiongnu Shichang to attack again in the night.

Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it was ten days later.
In a tribe near Hulun Lake.
Zhang Qi picked up a piece of burlap from a pot of boiling water.
The hot linen cloth was emitting white mist in the cold air, and after a while, Zhang Qi felt that the temperature was right and spread it on his face, and the warm touch and wetness made him hum comfortably.
The men, women, and children of the tribe shrank together in horror, and the hungry wolves on the grassland attacked their tribe last night, and the young men who resisted had all died tragically, and even the nobles who were high in the past were mercilessly strangled.
All this was thanks to the gentle-looking man in front of him, and at the sound of his command, one by one, the heads were cut off, both adults and children.
Washing his face comfortably, Zhang Qi pinched the sackcloth in his hand, and a female soldier beside him reached out to take it.
Looking back, it has been ten days, and in these ten days, Zhang Qi has led this group of people to loot more than a dozen tribes, large and small, almost emptying all the tribes on the east side of Hulun Lake.
All of this is thanks to the military minister Shan Yu, if it weren't for him, Zhang Qi would not have been able to achieve such a high result at such a fast speed.
Now he has more than 100 Hun cavalry, 700 servant troops, and more than 2,000 women and children who have been sent back to the camp in Daxinganling, as well as countless cattle and sheep.
