Chapter 297: Sheep Bones
The blood of men and animals is mixed together, and it is impossible to recognize it even with the best eyesight. In the same way, when interests are clouded by the tip of the heart, it is difficult for even the most brilliant minds to think clearly - not to mention that most people in the world are not smart enough.
After some retraction, the Taishi Ci Department only recovered a few thousand cattle and sheep, and the livestock in the impression of the trial were far from so few, but in order to bring back these thousands of livestock, the subordinates of the trial were scattered and disappeared in the desert.
More than they had to lose from fighting the Xianbei people.
Through this devastating battle, the 30,000 soldiers and horses who were ordered by the first emperor to go out of Xianbei during the Xiping period finally escaped back to the battle of only a few hundred people. In this land that the people of the Central Plains have never heard of, it is not only the arc knife and the hard bow that bring them danger, in fact, the arc knife and arrow rain of the Xianbei people are the most insignificant threat in this desert.
Xia Yu and their loss to Tanshi Huai may not be because the soldier's technique is not as good as Xianbei, nor may they be lost in the general's marching formation is not as good as Xianbei, they are lost to Cangtian.
What is the sky?
Everything in the world that is beyond the reach of human beings is the will of heaven, and it is never human beings who suffer so much...... Like the ancestors, they drove cattle and sheep to live in the disjointed Xianbei eastern settlement, and the abundant meat at night made the soldiers revelry all night, until the empty desert in the middle of the night caused nightmares in people's sleep, and the ears were filled with sudden explosions of shouts and screams that stopped abruptly.
This night, Yan Rou led his subordinates to patrol the camp over and over again, and in the morning he carried out more than a hundred corpses from the military tent before going to sleep.
No one knew better than Yan Rou, who had personally participated in the Yan Clan's Eastern Expedition to Fuyu Kingdom, what the screams of the night meant. Listen to those veterans who besieged the camp from the Buyeo Mountain and even followed Zhang Liao's camp, when the Buyeo people were besieged in the mountaintop military village at night, they carried this kind of shout, until everyone in the camp went crazy, and tens of thousands of soldiers in the camp finally faced each other with swords, and Zhang Liao took advantage of the situation to rush in, and the bones were all made by the heroes of the cavalry general.
Yan Rou still didn't know what that kind of night roar meant, but it was really infiltrating, and he couldn't help but order someone to kill everyone who screamed like a pig.
The people of the tribe were killed like pigs, and the pigs outside the tribe were offered up like people.
The Taishi Cibu rested in the eastern part of Xianbei for 14 days, they only knew that the central part of Xianbei fell in the west, but they did not know how far the Xianbei tribe was from the west, nor did they know how far the west had to go to meet the water source.
While they were resting, the animals were not resting, and they were running wildly everywhere. The frightened animals ran like a tide of beasts to the west, north, and south, as if they could escape if they did not fall into the hands of those people in the east. But in fact it was not as simple as the beasts thought in their minds, most of them died of thirst, a small part starved to death, and a smaller part were eaten by coyotes who roamed in the middle of the desert and grassland.
But there were still lucky ones who found water and rocks with earth and salt to lick and eat, and eventually they made their way west, escaping from the clutches of one group and falling into the hands of another...... These people are the closest tribe to the eastern periphery of the Xianbei tribe.
The seventeen tribes near the edge of the Middle Tribe belonged to Kobineng's subordinate general Zonu, and in the past these tribes were the mainstay of Kobineng's subduing Mika. But now there are only 12 out of 10 warriors left in these tribes. This year, the state herd of the Han land and the state county of the state and the county of the Han Dynasty made a big fanfare to take revenge on the Great Xianbei, although the adults of the tribes all laughed at the wine banquet for the incompetence of the Han family state pastor, but no one dared to trust the Central Plains, after all, many years ago Yanbei had made them subdued in the military capital mountain.
In order to resist the invasion of the Bingzhou army, Kebineng recruited the elites of various departments to form a huge army across the grassland and through the desert, leading the army to attack the five plains of the Han land. In this way, as long as the Bingzhou army dares to go out of Yanmen, they will burn and loot in Wuyuan, which is not guarded by Xiongguan, and then attack Yanmen through the Han Dynasty to choke the way back for the Bingzhou army. This tactic really worked, so that the previously rampant and incomparable governor led his soldiers and horses back to the city again.
Zonu did not participate in this southward raid, and the eastern Luo Lord Micah always had the idea of being a longer and shorter with Ke Bi Neng in his heart, and now the middle tribe raised troops to the south, although the various tribes left behind in the middle tribe are not all old, weak, sick and disabled, but there is not much difference. Zonu was the only tribesman who could defend himself against Mika. It doesn't matter how many soldiers he has, but as long as he stays here, Micah won't dare to make a mistake even if he raises the heart of arrogance.
In the past few days, his subordinates have been telling in groups that the Zonu desert is not useless, at least now there are cattle, sheep, pigs and horses growing in the desert, which is a gift from the god of red deer. Although these animals are very thin, it is already an extraordinary gift compared to the fact that the red deer gods always disliked their faith and were not pious enough to take away their newborn children in previous years.
Zonu scoffs at this, these ignorant and superstitious herdsmen!
Is it the will of the god of red deer, is it the final say of these wastes who can't fight? Anyway, you have to ask the witch!
The old priest of the middle tribe jumped around the pillar of fire with a grimace mask, and then shook his whole body and told Zonu a truth that is unparalleled in the world, "This is the meat given to you by the god of red deer, you cannot domesticate them, you should eat them immediately, leave the best meat, and dry it for the tribe lord to come back and take it." ”
At this time, Zonu's heart was put back in his stomach, and he beckoned his subordinates to slaughter the pigs and sheep that had grown tendon meat for half a month, and after half an hour, it became a delicacy, and his mouth was full of oil...... This is the will of the gods, and if you don't eat it cleanly and anger the gods, you will be blamed in the future, and it will turn a good thing into a bad thing.
Zonu's nameless son was eating happily with a leg of mutton, and was slapped on the back of the head by his father, and his whole body was heavily planted on the ground with the leg of mutton, and before he could react, he raised his head and opened his mouth to cry, and then another lamb bone was stuffed into his mouth. When he turned his face, he saw Zonu laughing on his head, and spit out a name in Xianbei language.
And his son had a name, and it was Sheep's Bone.
This is a great family, many years ago in the war of plundering the Han land, he grabbed a bronze lock and could not open it, and then there was a Zonu; Now his son has two legs of mutton that he can't eat anymore, and the name is good.
It's just that the Zonnu who thanked the red deer god for giving them food during the carnival didn't know that it wouldn't be long before his tribe would be eaten by the wind and sand like these pigs, cows and sheep, and he couldn't even find a single bone!
