Chapter 263: Hunting
"Khan, we have received news that the Wei State is going to mobilize troops against the surrounding tribes. ”
Inside the tent of the Witch Clan, two soldiers dressed in wolf hairs knelt on one knee half-naked and reported the news of the spying to Khan Kektu, who was sitting on a leather chair.
In the early years, the Witch Ghost Clan would often train falcons to hunt chickens raised by the people of Wei and Yan.
Over time, they are no longer satisfied with doing something "stealing chickens and touching dogs".
They began to probe, like some small villages outside the border towns, and when the first spoils of war were harvested, they were stunned.
There were no less than 1,000 chickens, ducks and geese, more than 300 cattle, sheep and pigs, and hundreds of strong men and hundreds of young women.
This special damn thing is much cooler than them doing those things of "stealing chickens and touching dogs"!
From then on, the Wugui clan was out of control and began to continue to raid the small villages outside the border cities of Wei and Yan.
At that time, the Wei State did not pay attention to a small nomadic force, and the small tribe of thousands of people was not afraid?
It was this indulgent mentality that led the Witch Ghost Clan to grow to tens of thousands of people in just five years!
They continued to absorb some tribes smaller than them, and at the same time forced some of the people of Wei and Yan to join them.
Up to now, the Witch Ghost Clan is a large tribe of nearly 100,000 people!
Among them, there are 30,000 people, and they are warriors on horseback!
It was not that the Wei State did not think about exterminating this witch and ghost clan later, but the embarrassing thing is that a small part of the witch clan are Wei people, they are children who have been robbed in the past, and they have been growing up in the witch and ghost clan.
There are also some mixed races, half Wei people, half witch ghost clan, these people are the bloodline born of the robbed Wei women and witch ghost clan.
The Wei people do not fight the Wei people, this is a criterion of the Great Wei.
Because the Wu Ghost Clan doesn't care whether they are Wei people or not, they only know that they have to keep robbing in order to survive.
This was a huge headache for the Wei State, and the soldiers in the northern Xinjiang fought with the Witch Ghost Clan several times, and finally came back with nothing.
It's not that they can't defeat the witch ghost clan, but because they all have the blood of the Wei people flowing in their bodies.
"Will they use troops against us? No, they can't bear to let us compatriots have the same blood in their veins!" said Kektu with a smile, as if he had already figured out this scruple of the Wei State.
"Khan, this time is different, it is the youngest general of the Wei State who is in the limelight, Liu Chu. ”
"He is the heir of Liu Zhanguo, his strength is extremely strong, and in the battle of the leading fortress, it was he who led the Liu family army to break the millions of overseas African coalition troops. The soldier below reported.
"Is it? But didn't their Liu family army also die a million people? I think that Liu Chu's strength in leading the troops to fight is average, so there is nothing to be afraid of. Kirktu waved his hand.
The "Khan ......" soldier was about to say something, but was interrupted by a wave of Kirktu.
"Needless to say, they can't beat us, so let's get back. Kirktu said impatiently.
The two soldiers below glanced at each other, retreated at the same time, and when they came to the outside of the big tent, they looked at each other again, and sighed with a wry smile.
If it weren't for the early death of Kektu's father, and the eldest brother who succeeded him also died of illness, where would it be the turn to get this Kirktu to be the khan?
By all accounts, Kirktu was not a qualified khan.
Strength, no, not as good as some of the girls in the tribe! Strategy, no, just like an idiot!
The Witch Clan is in the hands of Coktu, and there seems to be no future at all.
At the same time, 100,000 Liujia troops were moving towards northern Xinjiang.
"Xiao Nian, why did you think of going to Northern Xinjiang? Why don't you go to Western Xinjiang?" Tong Botao asked curiously.
"At the beginning, I also planned to go to Western Xinjiang, after all, Western Xinjiang is the top priority, there are complex tribes, and many of them are colluded with the Chu State, which is a bone that is difficult to gnaw. ”
"However, I heard about the Witch Clan, and this Witch Clan made me a little curious, and I planned to go and see it. Liu Chu explained.
"I've heard of this, it is said that many of them are from our Wei people, and some of them are mixed races with Wei blood. Tong Botao nodded and said.
"Our country has accommodated them, thinking of blood and kinship, and has never been cruel to them. They were supposed to reciprocate, but now it's getting more and more rampant. ”
"Maybe others have scruples, but I don't have so many scruples, I still have to fight!"
"Don't think that they are all brothers born to the same mother, and if you do something wrong, you won't dare to teach you a lesson. Liu Chu shrugged.
"So you're going to pull out this witch clan?" asked Tong Botao.
"It's best to recruit An, if they don't know how to be interested, start with men, start with men who don't have any Wei blood, then women without any Wei blood, and then mixed-race. Liu Chu said.
"Tsk, you're going to have a big purge. Tong Botao said.
"This time, the environment of heaven and earth has changed greatly, disasters have occurred everywhere, and many Wei people have fallen into the grass. Some were entrenched in the mountains of Wei, and some escaped from the frontier and occupied the mountains as kings. ”
"This fight against the witch and ghost clan can be regarded as a wake-up call for these people who have fallen into the grass, don't think that we dare not take action against them. Liu Chu said.
"It turns out that there is still this deep meaning. Tong Botao was a little surprised, he didn't expect Liu Chu to think so long-term.
If you don't knock on this witch and ghost clan, those who fall into the grass will take the witch and ghost clan as an "example", and take advantage of the principle that the Wei people do not beat the Wei people, and they will make waves unscrupulously.
Once the witch clan is knocked or even subdued, it can have a deterrent effect on those people, and can reduce a lot of unnecessary small troubles.
"I found that I was not as good as you, not as strong as you, and not as good as you. ”
"Alas, I'm like a piece of waste in this comparison. Tong Botao sighed.
"One thing, you're better than me. Liu Chu said.
"Which point?" Tong Botao hurriedly asked, do you still have any advantages in yourself?
"It's hard to say. Liu Chu said.
"What's so hard to say?" Tong Botao was puzzled.
"I'm afraid people will say I'm a rough person. Liu Chu said.
"Which soldier is not a rough man?" Tong Botao said.
"I'm a gangster, and being a soldier is just my side job. Liu Chu said.
"......" Tong Botao was speechless.
"Just tell me, I'm better than you. Tong Botao urged.
"You're fatter than me, and you're meaty, and you're not easy to get eggs when you're riding. Liu Chu said seriously.
"Get out!" Tong Botao snorted.
Liu Chu smiled but did not speak.
Two days later, Liu Chu led an army of 100,000 to Shuangyue City in northern Xinjiang, and a hundred miles west of Shuangyue City was Red Cloud City.
Red Cloud City is the place where Sister October was a soldier in October, Liu Chu thought, if he has time, he will take October there to take a look.
"General Liu, look up for a long time!" a middle-aged man in armor walked over laughing.
"General Zuo, please remove the big characters, don't dare to be. Liu Chu turned over and dismounted, and greeted Zuo Xiuping, the general of Northern Xinjiang.
"You are a general personally appointed by His Majesty, and you can't go with big characters. Zuo Xiuping said with a smile.
"When I first met you, you were still a hairy boy on the school field, and now you have become a general, your speed really surprised me. Zuo Xiuping said in amazement.
"It's just a coincidence, and it's time to catch up with the good times. Liu Chu said.
"The times make heroes! But this hero must also be a manufacturable material, if it is a pile of mud, no matter how good the situation is, it will not be able to support the wall. Zuo Xiuping said.
"Thank you, General Zuo, for the compliment. ”
"General Zuo, what is the situation of the Witch Ghost Clan now, but what are the trends?" asked Liu Chu.
"The Witch Clan is holding a hunting tournament for three days, and today is the first day. Zuo Xiuping said.
"Oh, hunting competition?" Liu Chu was interested, not knowing what the hunting competition of this clan was like.
"The Witch Clan has already known the news that we are going to use troops against them, but the Khan of the Witch Clan Koktu doesn't seem to take it to heart, he probably thinks that we will just pretend to attack them as before. Zuo Xiuping said with a smile.
"This time, they probably didn't expect that you would be the one who would hit them. Zuo Xiuping said.
"What's wrong with me coming to fight?" asked Liu Chu puzzled.
"You don't look like a lord who cares about anything and the blood of the Wei people. Zuo Xiuping said.
"Do I look like me?" asked Liu Chu to Tong Botao beside him.
"Like. Tong Botao nodded seriously.
"Get out!" Liu Chu rolled his eyes.
"I want to go to this hunting competition to see if I can get in?" asked Liu Chu.
"This is easy, there are a lot of Wei people in the witch ghost clan, so it's easy to mix in a Wei person. Zuo Xiuping said.
"Okay, then it's troublesome for General Zuo to arrange it. Liu Chu nodded.
In the afternoon of the same day, Zuo Xiuping directly sent Liu Chu, who had a little makeup, to the range of the witch and ghost clan's hunting grounds.
"General Zuo, is the Witch Ghost Clan really dressed up like this?" Liu Chu looked strange.
He endured the pattern on his face, but why did he wear two pigtails? This is special, not male or female, too ugly!
"According to the custom of the witch clan, adult men must have two pigtails, while nobles have three pigtails. ”
"Don't clash with the nobles for the time being, lest your identity be revealed. Zuo Xiuping reminded.
"Okay. Liu Chu nodded, and then walked towards the hunting center.
The hunting competition of the witch clan is to put some jackals, tigers and leopards together, and then people follow in, and the only weapon is a stone, and whoever can kill more prey will win.
The advantage of winning is to become a nobleman and have more women.
Liu Chu felt that this hunting competition was more like a battle in the Shura field, and as soon as Liu Chu arrived at his destination, he found that many people had died in the field, and of course, there were also many animal corpses.
"Good!
A voice attracted Liu Chu, who looked up and saw a young man wearing a crown.
Liu Chu touched his chin, this should be the Kirktu, he wondered, can he take this Kirktu back.
