At the end of November, in Putao City, two caravans that had met briefly set off separately the next day. On the Gobi Desert, in the cold wind of the winter moon, the sand and dust are raised, and the city of Putao looms.

Those tragic stories inspire everyone!

People can't wait to recover the Western Regions immediately, rescue them, and save their compatriots who are suffering and moaning under the hooves of Hu Qi's horses.

However, it is useless to just think. It also needs to be put into action.

Camel bells jingle and ring on the Gobi. In Putao City, after preaching the order to kill Hu and abolish the Han slave order, a caravan of nearly 100 people marched forward.

…

…

At the beginning of September of the eighteenth year of Yongzhi, the Battle of Beishan ended, and the Zhou army won a great victory. In October, Qiuzi was captured by the Zhou army. In November, news spread throughout the Western Regions.

On the second day of the twelfth month, in the city of Hami, in the ruined city, the market was like winter, and there was no one in the cold.

At noon, in the restaurant on the main street in the middle of the city of Hami, the nominal commander of the 50,000 coalition army, Baye Gu Xiaode, convened thousands of households in the four clans and the capital to discuss the matter. In addition to the thousand households who controlled the army inside and outside the city, there were 36 Hu generals.

With the Luo general Po Shi, the Hui general Utler and the two of them were seated with the generals under their command. These two men commanded nearly 30,000 people. Occupy most of the remnants of the army!

The social organization structure of the barbarians, the largest organizational structure is the clan, below is the tribe, and then divided into surnames and families.

In the case of the Mongols, Mongolia is the name of the clan. They have the same customs and language. Before the unification of Genghis Khan, there were still Tatars on the Mongolian plateau: Tatars, Mirbegs, etc. After being conquered, they were all listed as tribes of Mongolia.

Genghis Khan came from the Mongolian beggar tribe. After the death of the Mongol Khan Khutura, the Mongols were divided into the Taichiwu and the Qiyan tribe. Genghis Khan's father should have been the head of the Qiyan tribe.

These are two large tribes, and there are many smaller tribes below that are attached to them.

And in the begging department, there are many surnames. The nobility of the tribe may be a small tribe with a single surname, or it may be a combination of several surnames. Its subordinate herdsmen and slaves form the most basic family unit.

At this moment, this is the situation in Mobei and Hami City. For example, Bayegu, Tongluo, Xue Yan, and Hui Hui, in fact, they should all be called Tiele people. However, they are so powerful that they are a separate race. There are also tribes of various sizes under the tribes.

The remnants of the army of 50,000 belonged to four tribes, but there were many small tribes. It's okay to be like Tongluo and Huifu, there are banner figures, and generals are in charge. And such as Bayegu and Xue Yan are purely scattered sand. There are also small tribes such as the Tuyuhun leader Fu Zhong.

In the cold winter, the cold wind outside Hami City is cold. In the restaurant, there is a stove and a cauldron, and the mutton is in the pot, steaming hot, and the fat is fragrant.

The Hu will sit in turn.

Baye Gu Xiaode was 16 years old at the time, sat on the main seat, looked around at a cadre of generals, and slowly said: "Qiuzi was captured by the Zhou army, and I have decided to lead the army back to Beiting. Contact Shatuo, Turgish, Qarlu and other departments, and then fight with the Zhou army. ”

As soon as Baye Gu Xiaode's words fell, five or six generals in the hall suddenly objected. One of them sneered: "General Xiaode put the charge of the defeat of the army on Tumen Taiji, and we all agree with it. But you are like a coward to run away, with such guts, how can you be worthy of being the commander of the coalition forces? ”

This is a nobleman of the ancient tribe of Baye, Ren Qianhu.

"Haha!" More than a dozen people in the hall burst into laughter. This filled the hall with laughter. From this, we can see the prestige of the young coach of Bano Kotaka in the coalition army.

Baye Guxiaode was originally a small tribal leader attached to the Chahar tribe of Mongolia. Flee to Mobei. was favored by the princess of Wanguo, and almost became a concubine, so he could have a status in the army. Now, he is married to Tumen's wife, Uniri. What is this?

At this time, General Po Shi of Tongluo spoke: "Xiaode is the commander of our coalition army, and his decision is my decision." Murong, what are you laughing at? ”

The laughter in the hall suddenly stopped.

Hui General Utrele said coldly: "It's a cold winter, and there is a Zhou army peeping in Rouyuan City, how can we cross the desert and attack Qiuzi?" If the turtle is not lost, we will naturally go to the turtle. Now, the only way to go is to the North Garden. If you want to die, don't drag us along. ”

The two generals expressed their attitudes, and the echo suddenly sounded. The other four nobles naturally didn't dare to say more.

Baye Gu Xiaode patted the armrest of the wooden chair, a cruel smile appeared on his face, and he said coldly: "Since everyone agrees." That's it. Baye Gu Murong challenged my authority in public, came, dragged him down and cut him down. ”

"You dare?" Baye Gu Murong immediately jumped up angrily.

But...

Several Tuyuhun armored soldiers came in, cut down Baye Gu Murong, and dragged him out. The hall was silent.

The rebellion outside, as well as Baye Gu Murong's cronies and sons, naturally have Tongluo to deal with.

Baye Ko Xiaode smiled slightly. Announcing his first order after consolidating power, "Kill all the old people and children of the Han Chinese." We are about to abandon the city and go to the North Courtyard for the winter. "His people, the guards, the Tuyuhun tribe attached to him, plus the tribe that annexed Baye Gu Murong, his power will increase to 3,000 people. And in the future, there will be even more of his people.

…

…

In the east of Hami City, in the camp tent of Baye Gu Xiaode, Baye Gu Xiaode returned to the back tent after accepting the allegiance of several small tribal leaders who took the initiative to vote.

The slender young woman and beautiful Uniri were busy in the tent, instructing the slaves to put away the ornaments and clothes. A twenty-two-year-old young woman, with fair skin, convex where she should be convex and round where she should be round. With the delicate nature of water, the style is charming.

Seeing Baye Gu Xiaode coming in in armor, Uniri smiled, greeted him, and said, "The general is back." Offering mare's milk wine, he served Baye Gu Xiaode to change his clothes, and advised: "I heard that the general is going to kill thousands of old people and children in the city, I am afraid that this will make the Han slaves resist!" ”

Baye Gu Xiaode sat in the chair, pinched Uniri's face, pulled her into his arms, and said with a smile: "My princess, if you want to show benevolence and righteousness, it also depends on the timing. There is not much food in the army. "He likes to call Unige a princess. This would increase his interest in her.

The real reason why he said this was that he wanted to let the Han people taste the pain he had suffered.

Unizh lowered his eyelids slightly. I regret it somewhat. Baye Gu Xiaode, although people are young, they are talented. She couldn't handle it. Moreover, this person is very murderous. In the future, I am afraid that I will lose in this matter.

She should probably think about her future.

…

…

The night of the fifth day of the first month of December. The crescent moon walks through the clouds. In the silence of Hami, there was silence. Thousands of horsemen gathered in the city. The light of the knife and the horse's hooves shone in the cold light in the moonlit night.

The carnage in the dark of night is about to begin.
