1990 Wilderness Winter Battle (8) New Year
Zha Mu Hebi died in battle, black cavalry clusters covered the land all over the mountains, and the fierce battle from the valley mouth made the faces of all the tribes waiting for this result in the valley white, just when the tribes were speculating and uneasy, the black imperial cavalry began to converge in pieces, and the cavalry spurs dyed red with human blood were lined up outside the valley, and the black fine armor made everyone feel more and more breathing paused,
"My God, with such a cavalry cluster so equipped, it's no wonder that even the people of Dongting have been defeated, is it true that the wind direction of the prairie is really going to change! The white-haired Namchi patriarch looked at the teams of imperial cavalry with black armor almost equipped with heavy cavalry, the old eyes who were accustomed to the wind, frost, rain and snow of the grassland for decades, and looked at the hideous black that swept like a wave, and the strange battle flag that swept like a wave defeated the Cang Army, one of the eight main forces of the Eastern Court, with an absolutely crushing attitude, and his body actually shuddered,
"Lord Namu, instead of caring about the grassland, it's better to think more about how to face this new ruler!" Another patriarch next to him said with a worried face, "Yes, the Dongting people, who have always been proud of their might, were defeated and scattered in all directions, which can be regarded as a complete end to the rule of this region, but the new ruler may not necessarily be better than the Dongting people" The overall situation has been decided, and the patriarchs of each clan have to consider the remaining issues" "What if the other party turns all of us into slaves?"
Someone said out of place, slaves! The air suddenly froze, in the war of the steppe people, the weak must belong to the strong if they want to survive, and the tribe has the opportunity to grow strong through conquest and plunder, and the concept of feeding and strengthening themselves with enemies like a snowball has long been ingrained, and killing their men and taking their women abounds.
In a certain way. All clans can be regarded as the spoils of war that the other party snatched from the Dongting people by force, the clansmen, women, livestock, food, life and death! I can only obey the Data tribe, unless we want to be exterminated!!" someone said with a heavy voice and gritted his teeth, the others did not speak, but their palms were already full of sweat, although they remained neutral in this war, but no one dared to say that the other side was not a brutal guy, and the result of treating the defeated tribes was often either co-opted or the entire clan was reduced to slavery, and the most terrible result was to order a massacre, in the war between the steppe khanates. This is not uncommon,
For the grassland people, who are accustomed to measuring a qiē by grassland, there are only so many grasslands suitable for grazing, and if they feed a group of people, they will get one less piece of good grassland. The enemy's life is not as good as grass, and killing the enemy is to gain more living space.
Just when everyone felt sweaty palms and suppressed tension for their fate hanging in the hands of others. The black-armored cavalry assembled on the opposite side finally made a move, and a black-armored cavalry officer holding a golden winged falcon battle flag slowly came from the opposite side of the body lying on the east court people.
The black-armored cavalryman wore chest disc armor. The spears hanging on the war horses were still stained with blood, and their eyes were sharp and terrifying looking at this side, and there was a murderous aura all over their bodies, which made the patriarchs of all clans shudder, and the black-armored cavalry stopped at a position of fifty meters from the mouth of the valley, and raised the banner in his hand,
"By the decree of the greatest Falcon Khan King, the land, the tribes, the water sources, and the pastures belong to the Falcon Khan King! Saying this, it is naturally Brother Jin Er, who is familiar with the Dongting language, he has just avenged the clan, his voice is loud and shocking, the black armored cavalry has a cold face and violently inserts the golden falcon battle flag in his hand to the ground, the metal at the end of the battle flag is sharp, and it is steadily inserted into the hard frozen ground with snow, the flag is blown out by the strong wind, and the golden falcon on it seems to come to life, so act, the patriarchs of all the clans at the bottom of the valley are all relieved, fortunately, the other party is not erecting a blood flag representing the slaughter, and the other party's act of planting the flag indicates the absolute domination of this place,
"As long as it is a sign of submission, it will not be attacked, although there will be the danger of being scattered and resettled, but it is better than being slaughtered by the whole clan" There are already patriarchs who have begun to walk out of the valley, their eyes are looking at the sky, the white sky, and the black war horse cluster is like a hideous beast crouching in the distance,
Although the various tribes in the valley have nearly 200,000 people, except for the old and weak women and children and some of the tribes who followed the East Court to participate in the battle and were defeated, there are only about 40,000 or 50,000 men in the valley who can fight at full capacity, because it is the lack of unified and coordinated soldiers of all ethnic groups, and the overall combat strength is far inferior to the regular army of Zamu Hebi that was defeated just now, in this situation, the patriarchs of all ethnic groups walked to the place where the battle flag at the mouth of the valley was planted one by one, and placed their scimitars under the battle flag one by one with respectful hands, and then retreated ten meters away,
Kneeling on his knees and touching his head to the ground is a sign of submission to the new ruler and a willingness to obey orders in the event of a battle.
At this point, the first eastward expansion of the empire ended, which lasted more than two months, taking advantage of the fact that the main force of the Dongting people was still tied up in the Central Biya Empire, and sent heavy troops to swallow the thousands of miles of wilderness that had long been coveted, completely defeating the control of the Dongting people in this wilderness, cutting off the first peep of the Dongting people into the area west of the wilderness, and using this to gather the scattered forces outside the long wall, establish the control of the empire, and only with a small number of sacrifices, put most of the Slavic wilderness under the control,
The 200,000 scattered grassland tribes harvested were split into three parts, and 100,000 people were moved to the Murphy City area to fill the lack of manpower for the development of the Long Wall, and at the same time, the empire obtained enough war horse resources, and then the two courts of the East and West with the most contributions, each received 50,000 tribes, and obtained two areas suitable for grassland, the Heavenly Wolf Mansion and the Moang River Beach, so as to officially establish a settlement outside the Long Wall,
In December, the heavy snow completely froze the wilderness, the imperial army left 50,000 people to garrison the Yue Valley, and the rest of the armies returned to the long wall to rest.
And the area east of the Heavenly Wolf Mansion and the Moang River Beach, because the grassland people were completely relocated, was completely emptied into a white land that was uninhabited for hundreds of miles, forming a natural wilderness barrier that the fat man had long wanted to deploy.
With this Slavic wilderness in front of them, the most elite scouts of the Dongting people could not cross hundreds of miles of barriers in the extreme cold, which could buy the empire a full winter.
And the empire is based on the Tianlu River land that is enough to garrison troops, the warm Yue valley land, and the Biang River beach of the steppe people to form horns, which can be attacked and defended.
Winter provided the empire with enough time to digest this qiē period, and the empire also quietly grasped the strategic initiative in front of the eastern court, which was facing the biggest threat to the future, and time unconsciously turned into the new year (to be continued......
