One hundred and eighty-ninth chapter salary draw
In fact, Zhang He, a 30,000 army that Su Li had finally assembled, was not worthy of his at all.
The reason why he chose not to collide head-on with the 30,000 army was simply that he did not want to cause heavy losses to his Qilin Camp under his command.
There are 30,000 enemy troops. Even if Zhang He's Qilin Camp wins the final victory, he will definitely be severely damaged in a head-on collision.
Zhang He did not want to exchange the lives of his soldiers under his command for the lives of these Xianbei people. In his opinion, the lives of 30,000 Xianbei people cannot even match the lives of his three thousand soldiers.
Since you cannot collide head-on, you must think of some way to get a quilt.
Zhang He has been commanding the Qilin Camp for so long and naturally knows the advantages and disadvantages of the Qilin Camp. Compared to giving up the Qilin Camp's speed advantage and fighting head-on with the enemy, the method he thought of is obviously more suitable for the Qilin Camp to play to his strengths.
Just now, Zhang He suddenly thought, since the army gathered by Suli fell here, is their base camp empty?
If so, can the Qilin Camp bypass these 30,000 troops and then take over the base camp of the Suli Tribe?
This is a thought that flashed through Zhang He's mind, but as he speculated about the current situation, the feasibility of this idea gradually increased.
Although the main passage in Pinggang is located in the northeastern plain, there is also a relatively common road in the northwest of Pinggang that can go north. This place was only taken when Xianbei people went to Youbeiping. Later, because Gongsun Zan entered Youbeiping, this road was gradually forgotten.
If it weren't for the fact that the army guide had mentioned before, Zhang He wouldn't have paid attention to the deserted aisle.
Now that Suli's army is attacking, Zhang He can go through this gradually forgotten path around Hiraoka and go directly to the heart of Xianbei.
At this time, the soldiers of Qilin Camp scattered all over the tribe received orders to assemble outside the camp. Seeing this, Zhang He only sneered at the trembling survivors in the camp, and then led his army west under their gaze.
......
After a period of time, the Xianbei army in Gudana arrived here one after another, but the Qilin Camp had long disappeared in the camp.
As the head coach, Gu Dana was naturally furious about this result.
"Don't there still be survivors in this tribe? Bring it to me, I want to personally ask about the place where the Jizhou army goes!" Gudna said with a calm face.
Soon, more than a hundred people who remained in the contact were brought up. When the group of frightened people saw the fierce Guda, they were so scared that they were silent. Several timid faces raised their heads and dared not raise their heads.
"Who is in charge here?" Gudna asked.
The remaining tribesmen looked at each other, and finally an old man dressed relatively neatly was pushed out.
"Dear General Gudna, the villain Tuo serves you." Tuo was older, but he almost knelt on the ground and replied.
After experiencing the wind and frost, Tudu knew that with the current situation of his tribe, even if he ordered them to be destroyed directly, no one would be dissatisfied with them. So now, in order to ensure that all the bloodlines are finally lost, he must do his best to cooperate with Gudana.
Gudana was not as much as Tuduo thought. He now only wanted to know the situation and whereabouts of the Jizhou army, so he asked directly after Tuduo stood up.
"How many people did the Jizhou army slaughter your tribe? How much of their food supplies were they? Where did they go after leaving your tribe?"
Three questions came one after another, and Gu Tana was obviously a little anxious.
Tuduo thought about it carefully and then honestly said everything he knew, focusing on the direction where the Jizhou army left.
west.
Isn't that the direction where the Mika tribe is located?
Gu Dana was a little confused with the leaders under his command. How could they chase after him?
At this moment, a tribal leader who had traveled to Shangbeiping many times suddenly thought of the route that their tribe had taken many times, but one of the openings of that route was northwest, but the Jizhou army led by Zhang He was heading west, and they might not be able to discover that route if they were unfamiliar with the place.
When he told Gudana this idea, Gudana also felt that the Jizhou army led by Zhang He could not go anywhere. The reason why they traveled west was that the three encirclements of his army on his side forced them to retreat westward.
"Although Zhang He's army ran fast, if they kept going west, they would enter the range of the Mijia tribe. We don't have to worry about it at that time. If we send orders, the army will continue to travel west and follow the Jizhou army and crush them out of our territory!"
"Abide by the general's order!"
The 30,000 army of Gudana began to travel west to chase Zhang He's Qilin Camp. However, what they didn't know was that as early as when the 30,000 army of Gudana gathered in the tribe, Zhang He's Qilin Camp had already followed the route pointed out by the guide to Suli's base camp.
......
Grassland hinterland.
This place is thousands of miles away from the border of the Han Dynasty. If you can still see some Han caravans in the grasslands on the border of the Han Dynasty, then there will be no sign of any free Han people in the hinterland of the grassland. There are only two types of Han people who appear here.
One is a living slave, the other is a dead spoil.
Although the Xianbei people were beaten by Gongsun Zan and dared not invade the border of the Han Dynasty, deep in this grassland, even Gongsun Zan would not dare to advance rashly. Otherwise, if one accidentally fell into the encirclement of hundreds of tribes, even the white horse Yicong under Gongsun Zan would have no life.
But that was the past. When Gongsun Zan defeated various coalition forces and severely damaged Suli and other forces to attack the grassland hinterland after fighting the tribes, the combat power that each tribe could pull was less than 30% of the heyday. After forcibly gathering 30,000 troops, the strength was even less than 10%!
Under this situation, Zhang He's Eight Thousand Qilin Camp will not have any pressure even if it faces all the strength in the upper hinterland.
In this area with the most abundant water and grass in the hinterland, a tribal camp comparable to a small town is located in it. This camp is the camp where Suli tribe, one of the three major forces in the Eastern Xianbei region, is located.
Unlike the development model of other tribes, the Suli tribe not only has its own nostalgia and trade industry, but also has tribute materials handed over by major tribes. These three items combined and accumulated over time have created a strong Suli tribe.
However, after the failure of the war, the strength of the Suli tribe had dropped very significantly. If other large tribes had not suffered heavy losses, the Suli tribe might have fallen on other tribes.
Although the war was defeated, the Kesuli tribe was still full of vitality. There were countless women, children and children walking back and forth in the huge camp. The cattle and sheep in the livestock circle next to the camp gathered and sometimes scattered under the drive of several women. Some older children next to the stream not far away were really barefoot and played in the cold stream.
Except for the few men, the entire camp is more active than those tribes that have suffered heavy losses.
However, only decision makers in tribes can understand the crisis hidden under this positivity.
The big tent in the camp.
This is where the tribe leaders live. Except for the top leaders in the tribe, no one can get close to it casually. Now the stage when the grassland forces are about to be reshuffled due to the failure of the war, the defensive power of the tribe leaders' residence is also tighter. Even those tribe leaders must undergo strict body searches if they want to meet.
But even so, when a message came, the top leaders of the tribe gathered here as quickly as possible.
In the account.
The temperature is as warm as ever.
The leader of the Suli tribe, Du Biyang, walked back and forth in the tent with a restless expression, and the seven or eight senior officials of the Suli tribe below were all looking at Du Biyang with ugly expressions.
Just now, a Pegasus newspaper said that the Jizhou army appeared in the hinterland of the grassland, and two tribes had been slaughtered by the Jizhou army. At this moment, from the marching route of the Jizhou army, they were already on their way to the Suli tribe!
At first, they didn't believe it when the news came. After all, there was a 30,000 army of Gudana lies across Pinggang. Why did you see that you bypass the army and come here?
But as more and more news came back, Du Biyang and the senior executives of the tribe were panicked.
Although there are still 70,000 to 80,000 people in Su Lili’s tribe, 99% of them are women! Although women on the grassland are not weak people, what they lack is not courage but war horses!
In order to gather military supplies from the Suli tribe, it sent all the war horses that could be mobilized in the tribe. In addition to daily delivery, the remaining horses were only those who communicated, but the number of these horses added together was less than one hundred!
Not only that, in order to allow the warriors on the front line to have complete equipment configuration, all the bows, crossbows and armor in the tribe were sent out. Although their Suli tribe now has only 70,000 to 80,000 people, their real combat power cannot afford a thousand!
One thousand people, how can we resist the fierce army in Jizhou?
"Hateful! It's a bad thing, that's the warrior who fought with Gongsun Zan many times, but when he was dealing with a small Zhang He, he couldn't even touch his tail. You know, there were nearly 10,000 people! How could he let so many people break into the hinterland?" Du Biyang couldn't help but curse after walking for a while.
Hearing this, someone immediately responded: "Hmph, I see that Na Guda has long had a strange intention. He is the number one warrior in the tribe, and his reputation among the leader is second only to the leader. In this way, as long as there is a problem with the leader, Guda will naturally become the next leader of the Suli tribe. As for how much the tribe members will lose, how can he care?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several of the people who had sex with Gudana suddenly changed. They did not receive any prompts from Gudana. Obviously Gudana was not as unfaithful as this person said.
Just as they wanted to explain that, the top leader opened his mouth to interrupt everything.
"Don't worry about Gudna's affairs for now. Even if he has no intention of being unfair, he can't save it at this time. What you and I have to do now is to think about how to deal with the upcoming Jizhou army. According to the information, the number of Jizhou army that broke into the hinterland this time was 8,000."
"If it were in the past, this kind of person would be like seeking death, but everyone knows the situation now. If there is no proper way, the rule of our Suli tribe on the grassland may end."
When everyone heard this, they became silent.
They have people, but they really don’t have weapons and equipment! Once the eight thousand Jizhou troops are allowed to enter the unarmed tribe, the number of casualties of the tribe members will be immeasurable. More importantly, how can they eliminate the eight thousand cavalry without weapons?
"Why send a distress signal to the surrounding tribes and ask them to send people to resist the Hezhou army?" someone suggested.
"Hmph, you're too arrogant to those people. Since the war against Youzhou was lost, those tribes have been very dissatisfied with us. It's great not to follow up and make fun of them at this time. Do you still expect them to send troops to aid?"
Indeed, the Suli tribe is in a slightly awkward situation now. Any tribe with some power around has already shown signs of lip service, not to mention that in such a situation where the disaster is likely to be destroyed at any time, those tribes are loyal enough if they do not bite back.
Everyone sighed, and the foreign aid path seemed to be impossible.
At this moment, not only were the senior officials present sick, but others regretted provoking Gongsun Zan from Youzhou. If they hadn't been greedy for the land of Youzhou, how could they have suffered revenge from Gongsun Zan and suffered heavy losses? If there were no only 8,000 Jizhou troops who lost only 8,000, how could they have been at a loss?
"It's hateful! I think my Suli tribe is dominating the grassland, but now I'm forced to the point of nowhere!" Dubi said with a grudge.
As the leader of the Suli tribe, Du Biyang is naturally not a person without any fucking hands. On the contrary, his force is not at all under the slightest warning of the First Warrior. Now he has been forced into a desperate situation, Du Biyang no longer has any illusions.
"Since our tribe has reached a dead end, let all tribe members in the tribe let the young women leave first, no matter men or women, pick up the weapons around me, if there is no one, take wooden sticks. Next, we will use our flesh and blood to defend the final glory of the Suli tribe!" Du Biyang said gritting his teeth.
Everyone looked shining. They knew that the time for Suli tribe to survive and die, but not everyone was as willing to sacrifice themselves for the tribe as Du Biyang.
Among the senior management, a tall and thin man with long hair and a scar on his face flashed with his eyes. However, with the inspiration of being sick, the people around him expressed their desire to live and die with the tribe. In order not to be cleaned up on the spot, he naturally had to fight to the death. However, he had already made up his mind that if things were not done, he should focus on his own life!
In this way, with the encouragement of the leader Dubiya and the encouragement of the senior executives, the women in the Suli tribe began to move.
Some of them said goodbye to their children at home, some rummaged through boxes and cabinets to re-take out the weapons they had collected for a long time, and some directly removed the fences in the camp and selected thick wooden sticks suitable for their waving. However, more people were still staring blankly at the items used by the men in their homes.
Xianbei women are not cowardly. As long as the tribe needs them, they can turn into a combat power that cannot be underestimated in an instant, but this time they do not have the right weapons or may not survive.
But many of them are tired of this kind of life. Instead of living numb and lonely, perhaps dying on the road to fighting for the tribe may be a blessing.
