Chapter III. The sword asked Beiyan 164.Send charcoal in the snow to warm people's hearts

The Xiqiang people are an ancient people who have been inherited from ancient times to the present. They have lived near Bashu Road for generations, and they have opened up several grass-platform groups in a decent manner, but of course, they all ended up in nothing. Perhaps it is precisely because of the experience of several founding countries that the Xiqiang tribe slowly divided itself into class hierarchies, and finally embarked on the old road of dismantling their families and living alone.

In fact, if you look at it in the long run, it is easy to find that every country and even group in the Huayu Continent is in the law of division and merger and change. Therefore, the split of the ancient Qiang barbarians is actually an inevitable result.

It is true that they have learned the concept and experience of governing the country and the state from the suzerainty of the upper state, but at the same time, they have also learned more bad habits and drawbacks. In the eyes of these generations of Qiang nobles, the royal family that has been destroyed is, of course, also the legacy of the royal family, so it is natural to live a more superior life than ordinary clansmen, and they should also have absolute control over the affairs of the clan, otherwise it is not enough to show their outstanding achievements; But in the eyes of ordinary Qiang people, you people are just incompetent people who have lost their country, and they have given you the power and status you want before, and I have not seen you make any achievements; Such a group of incompetent wastes, still pondering that it is shameless and ridiculous to continue to step on the heads of their fellow clansmen to make a fortune!

When there is a conflict between class and interest, it will lead to war; And the result of every infighting is that the winner and the winner continue to fight to the death, and the loser and the loser unite to seek a turnaround; After hundreds of years, it was originally an ancient tribe dozens of times larger than Miaowu Village, and it has evolved into more than 100 strange small tribes of all sizes and scattered today......

After years of endless bloody infighting, although a large family has been divided into pieces; However, in the long-term war, the ancient Qiang people have cultivated a martial and combative spirit of being brave and good at fighting, forgetting life and death, and this spirit has also been deeply implanted in the blood; Even today, when it is relatively peaceful and stable, these Xiqiang people are also a very famous small elite force in the Huayu Continent!

They are professional mercenaries who fight for a living!

The young and middle-aged warriors of Miao Wuzhai, if they talk about individual combat ability, can barely be on the same level as the Xiqiang people; But today's battles are not ancient times after all, and they are not alone in the rivers and lakes, and the ability to fight alone is important, but it is only one of many important factors.

then a group of amateur militia commanded by pharmacists and witches; Against a group of mercenaries who do not take off their armor and live by war all the year round, it seems that the comparison of the strength of the two sides is enough to disparity! Fortunately, there is also a huge gap in the size of the team, so in the minds of the little grandma and the patriarchs of the four major families, this gap in combat experience can be made up by relying on a large number of people.

In this battle, Miao Wuzhai sent more than 2,000 soldiers, and without any prior note, they drove into the territory of the Xiqiang tribe; And this Xiqiang tribe was originally lonely, plus all the young and middle-aged soldiers in the clan were out to make a living, and all the men, women and children who stayed in the clan were added together, and they barely managed to make up more than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled people who could pick up a knife.

Due to the rugged and dangerous mountain roads of Bashu Road, the team of more than 2,000 people in Miaowu Village was also pulled out of a long period of human dragons by the mountain-shaped landform, and passively committed the taboo of soldiers. According to the usual practice of marching soldiers, in such a situation, a rally point should be set up in a relatively open area in front of the target point, and after the front and rear troops have arrived, the army should be swung straight to the target point.

For example, this kind of common sense problem of marching, if you pick out a veteran of three or five years, you can also explain the doorway clearly; However, these amateur commanders of Miao Wuzhai obviously didn't know such a thing at all......

The battle between these dozens of people and the fight against hundreds of people are completely different things! So, in the front row of the Miao Wujun's team, under the command of the layman, in a fairly spacious valley, faced the more than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled...

These Miao Wu militia did not know the principle that the infantry phalanx was attacking and the winner was maintaining the front. Those men from Miao Wuzhai who believed in their bravery, with their enthusiasm, broke away from the front and went deep into the enemy camp alone; Flipped left and right, rounded his arms, and slashed and slashed; When he runs out of strength and his hands and feet become weak, he will immediately be swarmed by the enemy soldiers who are waiting to work next to him, and chop them into meat sauce; And the more timid and wise, even the preciousness of their lives, and the chaos of the battlefield; When he saw that the steel knife in the enemy's hand was bright and the momentum was immediately divided, he began to retreat in his heart; The people in front of them retreat, and the people behind them don't know what the situation is, so they will naturally squeeze back; The front became potholed under the pressure of these people, and even if there were still Miao Wu warriors who were fearless, they could only be dragged back by these people, or passively go behind enemy lines, and finally die under the swords......

In this way, this Miao Wu army, which was ten times larger than the enemy, unconsciously formed a situation of retreating on the whole line! These reckless men with no tactical literacy not only messed up the formation of their own army, but also broke the determination to fight to the death and not retreat, if there can be a brave and invincible general rushing out of the front at this time, they can also stabilize the forward position on the verge of collapse; If there are people who supervise the team and retreat in a cowardly battle, it can also play a role in rectifying military discipline and revitalizing the morale of the army......

However, this Miao Wu army simply came with the intention of fighting a large group of fights, although there were many brave and resolute people, but after all, they did not have the strength to block a hundred, and it was even more difficult to maintain the defeat situation in front of them. The combat capability of individual soldiers is already equal, and the tactical literacy and terrain advantage are not in their own hands, coupled with their own long-distance march, they have shown a trend of exhaustion; The enemy, on the other hand, is a desperate battle at the expense of his life......

This battle of Miaoqiang, which should be evenly matched at worst, turned out to be jaw-dropping in the end.

In this battle, Miao Wu sent a total of 2,000 troops, including three pharmacists and three witch masters; The enemy Xiqiang tribe has more than 200 soldiers, and the leader is an old blacksmith in the clan. The two armies met in a spacious canyon, but the Miaowu army line collapsed at the first touch, and the Xiqiang tribe fought back and immediately chased after them; Until the remnants of the Xiqiang army ran out of physical strength and gave up the pursuit, they killed more than 1,500 enemy soldiers at the cost of 50 of their own casualties and more than 100 people were seriously injured, and the remaining 500 lucky people were all wounded and fled in a hurry; The six witch masters who led the team were not good at running, and all of them were captured, and they were beheaded in front of the battle, and their heads were enshrined under the Celestial God Pagoda of the Xiqiang tribe......

Originally, it was planned to lead the people of Miao Wuzhai to open a new chapter of development; I didn't expect this battle to be a must-win battle, but it would have such a ridiculous result! The families of those who died in battle, not to mention the land that they can't ask for; Just talking about the Xiqiang people, can they really just forget it? Although no matter how you look at it, this battle is a big loss for Miao Wuzhai, but who let him provoke others first? It is true that there are only more than 300 old, weak, sick and disabled people in the human family, but that is also because the young and middle-aged men have gone out to help the Nankang Imperial Court to eliminate the bandits! Now that his hometown has been attacked by Miao Wu Village, how can people not go back to Bashu Road to seek revenge?

More than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled, the 2,000 Miao Wu Shengli army who can fight have lost their armor and abandoned their armor; If the five hundred Xiqiang elites really knocked on the door to seek revenge, could they still count on those little insects raised by the Gu Master to resist the enemy army? Xing Gu Master put it on the rivers and lakes, and they are all terrifying living Hades; But if it is placed on the frontal battlefield of the two armies, it is not as useful as a young soldier!

Later, looking at the reaction of the Xiqiang tribe, it is indeed a person who has seen the world. Three days after the battle, the Xiqiang patriarch brought a bamboo slip to declare war, claiming that if Miao Wuzhai had been attached to the Xiqiang since then and had sent 300 men as slaves and 300 women as maids, then they could treat it as if it had not happened; If not, ten days later, 500 troops will fall from the sky and completely wipe out the Miao Wu Village, leaving no men, women and children.

Such a war that is close to genocide is simply normal in a chaotic area like Bashu Dao, where many ethnic groups live together! There have been countless small ethnic groups and small tribes that have not left their names and surnames, and they have all been wiped out in the long river of history...

When the little grandmother and the four patriarchs were at a loss, Miao Wuzhai ushered in a Nankang merchant who was willing to send charcoal in the snow! He said that he was a merchant who traveled all year round and made a living selling medicinal herbs. Now I see that the people of Miao Wuzhai are panicked and rumors of extermination are spreading, and I can't bear it. Therefore, after inquiring about the truth of the matter, he felt that he was able and willing to help Miao Wuzhai get through the difficulties......

There is no such thing as a free lunch. Especially this kind of beautiful thing in the snow, even if it is placed on the head of an individual, it is a fortune that can be encountered but not sought, let alone related to the life and death of a tribe?

Since everyone understands people, the price code can naturally be spread out and discussed!

After a series of consultations and concessions, the two sides finally reached a consensus on some key points, and also officially announced that Miao Wuzhai and Nankang Di listened to the two families, and officially became allies!

Five days later, the five hundred Xiqiang warriors who returned to Bashu Road for revenge were intercepted by more than 100 masked martial arts people, and after a whole night of fighting and chasing, the heads of more than 500 Xiqiang warriors were all cut off, packed into a large box, and sent to the station of the Xiqiang tribe;

At the end of the ten-day period, more than 200 old, weak, sick and disabled people who did not surrender to Miaowu Village were all killed in Xiqiang Village. Then the entire Xiqiang village ignited a sky-high fire, which burned for a day and a night.

Three days later, the little grandmother led the elders of the four major families to set foot on this feng shui treasure land that made the people of Miao Wuzhai fascinated.

A year later, Miaoyi Village rose from the ground, and the most fertile land near Miaowu Village was also planted with elephant valleys; And the caravan of Nankangdi is also logical to come and go to Miaoyi Village all year round.

The reason why Miao Wuzhai has become what it is today is that the 'biggest hero' is her Urge! And the imminent demise of Miao Wuzhai must be her Urge!
