Chapter 167: The Death of 'Uncle Chao' (Part II)
"Listen, you're surrounded by us! Acquaintances obediently surrender. We'll spare your lives, and if you resist, we'll leave your entire tribe of chickens and dogs unguarded by the time we break through the migratory vehicles. A loud voice from one of the bandits came out and shouted.
"What kind of friends are you? We, the Chaidar Ministry, who have no grudges against you in the past, why are you attacking my camp? Aren't you afraid of the encirclement and suppression of the Northeast Security Army? Inside the migratory vehicle, the same loud voice came out.
"Since you have come to our Tushetu Khan Department! How could I not have heard of Uncle Chao's name. This time, Uncle Chao took a fancy to your Chaidar Department, and those who knew each other contributed the cattle and sheep of the tribe. The loud horse bandit said triumphantly.
There was a silence inside the migratory car, which made the bandits think that they were cowardly, and if it weren't for the fact that the big leaders hadn't issued the order to attack, I'm afraid these bandits would have been impatient.
"Are you really the horse bandits who are famous in the eastern grasslands-Uncle Chao?" Inquiries can be heard from inside the migratory van.
"Of course!" Said triumphantly in a loud voice. Pointing to Uncle Chao, who was surrounded by everyone, he said, "This is the famous Uncle Chao." If you don't want the whole tribe to leave the chickens and dogs behind, you can hand over the cattle and sheep in the tribe with each other. ”
The loud horse bandit in front was triumphant, but Uncle Chao in the crowd scolded him in his heart. Didn't he know that now the range of the rifle was getting farther and farther, and now he himself was only more than five hundred meters away from the wall of the migratory vehicle. It's still within range of a rifle. The loud-voiced horse bandit's words undoubtedly leaked him under the enemy's gun. For his own safety, Uncle Chao hurriedly controlled the horse and took a few steps back, hiding the whole person among the horse bandits. He didn't dare to joke about his nickname, if he accidentally ate a peanut, it would be a lot of fun.
The soldiers of the vanguard regiment who were ambushed behind the migratory vehicle secretly said that it was a pity, if Uncle Chao had been in the evening for half a minute, they would have been sure to kill Uncle Chao at one time, but now that Uncle Chao is cunning and hiding among the horse bandits, it is almost impossible to have such a good chance to snipe.
"Political commissar, it is impossible for us to completely annihilate this group of horse bandits on the grassland, after all, although our vanguard regiment also has high-quality war horses, our soldiers cannot compare with these horse bandits who grew up on horseback in terms of riding skills. Therefore, we must create favorable conditions so that these horse bandits cannot escape, at least not let their cavalry exert their ability to escape. Cao Biao said with a frown. He understands the reason, but he scratches his head a little on how to operate it. The combat effectiveness of these horse bandits is not satisfactory, but the ability to escape is first-class.
"Of course we have the advantageous terrain here, otherwise why would the commander choose to set up bait here. Captain, this valley behind us is a natural paddock, the surrounding undulating hills semi-isolate this area, and the whole valley has only one exit, which can be said to be a natural fence. If we can introduce these horse bandits into the valley, with our combat strength, it will be easy to annihilate them. Zhang Yuan also felt that it was not very easy to operate. Although the two of them have set up a beauty plan, but now that the horse bandits are surrounding them, they have no chance to use the beauty plan.
"Either way, it's impossible for us to stay here. Let's get out of this valley first. And then leave a part of the bandits that can't give up something. Lead them into the urn. "It's simple, but it's a big problem to convince the bandits. These bandits are extremely vigilant. If you find something abnormal, you will flee immediately.
"That's right! Since the opposite side is really the 'super uncle', the horse bandit. Then our beauty plan may really work. A look of joy appeared on Zhang Yuan's face. After all, the entire vanguard group is here for these old bandits. Zhang Yuan didn't know that they not only caught a horse bandit leader like Uncle Chao, but also brought four famous horse bandits on the eastern prairie with them. Otherwise he would have been happier.
The man on the other side listened. We, the chiefs, are willing to make peace with you, and we will give some of the sheep and cattle and the most beautiful women of the tribe. I hope that 'Uncle Chao' can raise his noble hand and let the Chaidar Department go. ”
While there was silence inside the migratory van, the horse bandits who had turned to attack from other directions also returned. Negotiations are not unheard of by them. In the past, there were also large tribes that came as nomads. At that time, Uncle Chao did not have his current status among the horse bandits. At that time, a large number of horse bandits were gathered to prepare to deal with this large tribe, and he was another famous big horse bandit leader. He gathered a dozen bandits in total, with a total number of nearly 10,000 people. However, there were tens of thousands of people in that tribe, and there were fifteen thousand young men who defended the tribe alone. The horse bandits stormed several times, but they couldn't eat at all. Eventually, the large tribes finally let the bandits retreat at the cost of leaving some of their cattle and sheep behind. And the large tribe didn't stay in the area for long, and quickly moved away. After all, they all know the greed of the horse bandits. This time, for the safety of the tribe, a certain amount of cattle and sheep were paid to let the horse bandits retreat. But everyone knows the temperament of the horse bandits, and if the tribe still stays in this area, they will come back after a few days. The cattle and sheep in the tribe are related to the survival of the whole tribe. Of course, you can't give it to a horse bandit for no reason like this.
"Uncle Chao, what should we do about this?" The bearded man looked at Uncle Chao carefully. After all, this cooperation was convened by Uncle Chao, and Uncle Chao's own strength is also the strongest among them. Although the bearded man knew that the Chaidar Department had three thousand combat strength, he had already thought of retreating. It's just that Uncle Chao is still there, so they stay and watch. Now the Chaidar tribe is willing to give some cattle and sheep in exchange for their retirement. It's a great step. Of course, the bearded man was happy to do that. Uncle Chao is hiding too deeply. It can be said that these people who can stand tall in the grassland horse bandit world have unknown means.
"I feel acceptable!" The lean man said. Several people looked at him.
"Although we have 5,000 people, there is absolutely no problem in defeating the Chaidar Ministry, but you must also see that there are 3,000 young people in the Chaidar Ministry, and it is impossible for us not to lose half of the people. Although there are a lot of cattle and sheep in the Chaidar department, compared with our losses, the gains still outweigh the losses. And I got the news that some time ago there was a Russian Cossack cavalry in the Kulen region. They were fighting the horse bandits around them in order to maintain the rule of the Mongol princes. Besides, the eastern steppes have basically no big tribes under our plundering over the years. This is extremely detrimental to our future. And most importantly, it's too close to the Northeast. Although this is Mongolia, not the territory of the Northeast, but the Northeast Security Army has a large army here, and no one can say whether such a large-scale cavalry as ours will trigger a blow from the Northeast Security Army. After all, nominally Mongolia is still China. ”
The thin man's words made the leaders of the horse bandits stunned for a while, and even the most scheming super uncle was impressed by the thin man. They all know that this guy is the most impulsive of their leaders. But judging from what he said just now, anyone who underestimates him will be unlucky.
"It makes sense, the Han people have a saying called 'killing chickens and taking eggs', and we must not do this kind of thing. We should think more about the future. Uncle Chao spoke. This proves that they are ready to accept peace from the Ministry of Chaidar. There is another thing that Uncle Chao can't say, the most beautiful woman in the tribe offered by the Chaidar Ministry must be aimed at him. After all, his lustful reputation had already spread throughout the eastern steppes of Mongolia. And he must accept this blessing as he can, and he must not let other horse bandits know that he is no longer humane.
"Our super uncle has a large number of them, and we agree to let you Chaidar a horse! Cattle and sheep in the valley, leave a third! Otherwise, your tribe will be attacked by us. The loud horse bandit said proudly. As a pony bandit under Uncle Chao, he saw that his boss was able to make the big tribe on the opposite side take a third of the cattle and sheep in exchange for peace by virtue of his prestige. Could it be that Uncle Chao is the legendary Wang Ba's spirit? The little pony bandit looked enviously at Uncle Chao and other horse bandit leaders hiding behind the crowd, and secretly swore in his heart that he would definitely become a big man like Uncle Chao in the future.
The Chaidar department on the other side did not bargain, as if they were a little impatient to let them go. This made several horse bandit leaders secretly vigilant while being surprised. You must know that there are a lot of cattle and sheep in the small grain, there are tens of thousands of heads. A third is three or four thousand, such a large number of cattle and sheep, but enough for these horse bandits to live a chic life for a while.
The serious mistrust between the two sides makes either side have an estimate. In the end, after negotiation, the bandits retreated five miles. The Chaidar Division moved out of the camp.
As the horse bandits rumbled back, the migratory carts that had been blocked by the Chaidar tribe began to flow, and then the cattle and sheep on the outskirts of the valley began to flow outward. The horse bandits in the distance were obviously nervous, knowing that they had come this time for these cattle and sheep, of course they would not let the Chaidar Department drive all the cattle and sheep away.
When almost two-thirds of the cattle and sheep left the valley, the horse bandit could no longer hold back. Quickly rushed to the valley.
The Chaidar department on the opposite side suddenly "became nervous", and the migratory vehicle surrounded itself at the first time. It's good to hide the eyes of the bandits. It was impossible for the bandits to see inside the vans.
The Chaidar tribe keeps the cattle and sheep in separate enclosures in the valley. The Zadar people simply drove away the cattle and sheep on the outskirts of the valley. The remaining third is almost in the depths of the valley. At the same time, there is a tent behind the cattle and sheep. This is the tribal beauty that the Chaidar Ministry promised to give to Uncle Chao. Although all the horse bandits wanted to know what the beautiful woman of the Chaidar Department in this tent looked like, since she was presented to Uncle Chao, of course the others did not dare to touch Uncle Chao's tiger whiskers.
Although several horse bandit leaders were suspicious of the Chaidar tribe, the last doubt in their hearts disappeared when they saw the live cattle and sheep in the valley. With a large group of horse bandits rushed into the valley. Unlike other horse bandits rushing towards cattle and sheep, Uncle Chao and the other five horse bandit leaders walked directly to the central tent.
Now that the fruits of victory are in hand, it is time to share the spoils. The most taboo thing for those who do their job is the uneven distribution of spoils. Therefore, it is more difficult to divide the spoils each time than to unite. How many of the top big bandits were jointly exterminated by other forces because of the uneven distribution of spoils. Uncle Chao has seen too much, and of course he doesn't want to repeat their mistakes.
Entering the big tent, a beautiful woman in Mongolian costume sat in horror. The leaders of the horses and bandits were stunned!
"What a beautiful woman!" This is the voice of all horse bandit leaders. Then he was jealous of the old uncle. This man is like this, when the Chaidar tribe said that the most beautiful woman of the tribe would be offered, they didn't feel anything, after all, the beautiful steppe woman they had seen over the years was like that. In their eyes, the so-called tribal beauty is not as good as a cow or sheep. But now they don't think so. Such a beautiful woman doesn't even change a hundred cows! Originally, the thought of giving this woman to Uncle Chao disappeared without a trace. My heart turned around, thinking about what means I could use to get the stunner in front of me into my hands.
Although an old fritter like Uncle Chao was also amazed by the woman in front of him. But what made him powerless was that even in the face of such a woman, although his heart was hot, it was a pity that the old gun under his crotch just didn't react. But for the sake of a man's dignity, he can't give up such a delicate baby no matter what. Otherwise, it will be underestimated.
"You have been sacrificed to Lao Tzu by your tribe, you go to the small tent first. Don't show your face in front of Lao Tzu's guests," Uncle Chao said first. This tent is connected to several small tents, so that the area is expanded, and when there are guests, the family also has a place to avoid.
"Wait a minute! When did the Chaidar Ministry promise to dedicate her to you, Uncle Chao! I see her as my trophy too. Must participate in the distribution. The lean man spoke first.
"That's right! That's it.! Several others immediately chimed in, and even the normally cautious beard had an eager glint in his eyes. Compared with such a stunner, the lady in his lair is simply scum! After all, they are all men, and the only one who can keep a clear head when he sees such a stunner is the inhumane super uncle.
"Huh! What, you want to rob women with Lao Tzu? Uncle Chao had a smile on his face, but there was a penetrating coldness in his smile. The other two horse bandit leaders couldn't help it at first, and their bodies shrank unconsciously. The bearded man and the lean man were not afraid of Uncle Chao at all, and the two of them glanced at each other, and through their eyes, they temporarily formed an alliance. Uncle Chao is the strongest in this operation, but if the two of them join forces, they will no longer be weaker than Uncle Chao in terms of strength. Of course, I don't care about Uncle Chao's attitude.
"Uncle Chao, that's what I said. You're an old-timer! Let's pay more attention to our body! We still have us to do it for such a delicate baby! We can give up a part of the benefits in exchange. "Such a beautiful woman, even if she can't marry into the family, she must enjoy it. If you follow Uncle Chao, how can you still have your own benefits. The bearded man thought about it and figured out the current form.
