The 252nd Episode of the Sweep of the Soldiers of the Exhaustion of Donghu (Middle)
Zhao Kuo led the cavalry to attack the Donghu camp at night, the king of Donghu led the remnants to escape, and the main force of Donghu was completely destroyed in two battles, and it could not pose a threat to Zhao within a few years, so that the border pass can be stabilized, on the vast grassland, the difficulty of pursuing the Donghu cavalry is good at long-distance running, and it is conceivable that others will give up, Zhao Kuo is different, the fire is extinguished, the dry grass blades are exposed on the ground, and a trace of green is revealed under the grass blades, which is hope, just like the grassland, no matter what kind of suffering it suffers, new green shoots will emerge in the second year, and finally form a grassland in the sky.
Eliminate the evil, otherwise the harm will be endless.
The black knight on the grassland rushed forward, and the direction he went was exactly the opposite of that of King Donghu, and it seemed that he would only chase farther and farther along this road, and no one had any doubts, and the first point of being a dead guard was absolute obedience.
King Donghu led the crowd to leave, ten days later, Zhang Liang led the army to arrive, looking around, the ground was full of discarded items, a stream of water under the sun extended forward, returning to her hometown Erdona could not help but feel something, urging the horse to step forward, a qiē is so familiar and unfamiliar, where did his people go.
"Strategist, over there."
The soldier beside him pointed with his hand, and finally saw clearly that a large black shadow appeared in the distance, and the black shadow slowly approached. Zhang Liang was cautious by nature, and when the order was issued, the camps of all sides lined up to meet the enemy, with spears lined up, shields connected to each other, and crossbow fingers in the rear pressed the trigger, just waiting for the time to launch immediately.
The distance is getting closer, "flock." ”
Erdona is the most familiar, the grassland is not surging people but sheep, Donghu's unique sheep, sturdy, behind the sheep there are several Donghu herdsmen.
"Uncle Helmu."
The sheep seemed to be equally affected by the murderous aura, looking up at the front of them almost at the same time, even forgetting to enjoy the delicious food under their feet, and the shepherd behind them also held steady on their horses.
Erdona cheered and urged the horse out, at that moment it was like a child, a child who had just returned to the place where she was born and raised, and the excitement could be imagined.
"Princess Erdona."
Several people also recognized it, urged the horse to step forward, the distance was close, flew off the horse and knelt on the ground, Erdona hurriedly jumped down from the top to help up a few people, Zhang Liang waved his hand, and the rear formation dispersed, but it was just cattle and sheep, if it was passed out, wouldn't it be laughed at.
"Princess, it's finally back."
Several people couldn't help crying, all of them watched Erdona grow up, and when they saw Erdona, they couldn't help but think of the deceased old Donghu King and the declining tribe.
"Don't cry, get up."
Several people got up, their eyes fell on the Zhao army camp, their expressions revealed a bit of fear, and the camp emitted an amazing momentum, and it could be seen from the costumes that it was not the Donghu tribe.
"These people?"
"It's the Zhao people, who saved Erdona, this time to kill those traitors of the Jebel tribe."
One shook his head, "Princess, the rebellion of the Jebe clan is true, the Zhao people are always outsiders, the rules on the grassland, and it will not be tolerated to unite with outsiders to deal with their own people." ”
"Do you just watch those sinister people of the Jebel clan bully the weak?"
"What the princess said is reasonable, what the Jebel clan has done is intolerable, and it is not impossible to treat others in their own way."
The man sighed, he had lived for decades and had a very deep affection for the grassland, and no matter what happened, he never wanted to see the grassland left by his ancestors snatched away by outsiders.
"Where are the tribesmen? Are they okay? ”
"Dispersed, one night the Jebe tribe suddenly came in, defenseless, countless casualties, and finally divided into several groups to escape, recently the grassland Jebe people suddenly disappeared absolutely strange before they dared to come and see."
"Uncle Helmu, Erdona pleases you with something."
Ertona knelt down on her knees, and the old man hurriedly helped her up, "The princess must not say one, even if it is ten or a hundred." ”
"Find a way to find the tribe and tell everyone that King Zhao is a good person, belong to the Zhao State, and stay away from the scourge of war, only in this way can the Donghu people live a stable life."
"Helmu tried his best."
Ertona nodded, "Presumably my father wants to see this day too." ”
In the border land of Donghu, the grass has become dry and yellow, and in front of it is an endless desert, also known as the land of death, which is full of dangers, once you stray, you will definitely die, and those moving sand seas can instantly submerge people.
"King, the sea of death lies ahead."
"Divert."
After all, the king of Donghu is experienced, leaving many traces along the way, the purpose is very simple, once Zhao Kuo's army pursues, chasing here, the Donghu tribe suddenly loses its trace, there is only one possibility, in order to avoid the pursuit of the Zhao people into the desert, it is equivalent to completely disappearing, the vast grassland will inevitably find a foothold, if Zhao Kuo is conceited to dare to enter the desert, it is equivalent to asking for a dead end.
The Donghu tribe changed the route, and walked along the way to quickly turn back, which is equivalent to changing the direction, and the direction of the Donghu tribe was the opposite of the original direction of travel, and suddenly changed a position and returned on the way, so strange walking is elusive.
Zhao Kuo came, like a ghost, holding in his hand the topographic map drawn by Erdona, and the day and night attack on the camp of the king of Donghu did not chase but chose the opposite direction, and the whole grassland formed a huge ellipse, so that the march was equivalent to meeting the Donghu tribe directly.
A burst of smoke rose, the wind faintly revealed a burst of aroma, the cavalry of the Zhao army only brought dry food, smelling the aroma could not help but drool, almost did not encounter any tribes along the way, one came to the grassland is too large, and the other is that the tribes have suffered heavy casualties after war, most of them choose to enter the periphery, so as not to be swallowed by others.
"King, I found the Donghu tribe earlier."
"How many centaurs?"
"There shouldn't be more than 10,000 people."
Zhao Kuo exuded an astonishing killing intent from top to bottom, 10,000 cavalry was enough to pose a threat to the borderlands, since he chose to fight to the end, "The whole battalion assaults." ”
Under an order, the cavalry launched quickly, the sound of horses' hooves shook the sky, outside the tribal camp, the whole sheep was roasted on the fire, and one person held a wine glass to enjoy the deliciousness, and the rest of his life should be celebrated after the catastrophe.
Some things must always be faced, and avoiding them can only be avoided for a while, and don't leave anything to chance.
The cavalry came to kill, and Hertai was so frightened that he sat on the ground, and the soldiers behind him hurriedly helped him up, "Meet the enemy, meet the enemy quickly." ”
The whole tribe was in disarray, and in the face of the powerful Zhao army, all resistance was completely useless, and the soldiers in the clan were dissatisfied with the previous battlefield, so they simply gave up resistance.
Several men escorted Hertai to the front and "knelt down." ”
Hertai was also interested, completely lost the dignity of the tribal warriors in the past, and directly lay there, "The king spares his life, the king spares his life." ”
"What's your name?"
"Hertai."
Zhao Kuo snorted coldly, "I heard that there is a person in the Donghu tribe who likes to see the wind and rudder the most, and it must be you." ”
The eyes of the soldiers behind him showed anger, and then looked at Hertai, "Exactly, exactly, Hertai is willing to lead the tribe to follow the king to the death, and follow the work of dogs and horses before and after the saddle." ”
Zhao Kuo laughed, "It's a pity that Zhao Kuo can't accommodate minions without guts around him." ”
"The king spares his life, Hertai only wants to live, and I am grateful for the king's kindness in this life."
"Okay, there is no grudge between you and me, leave with your relatives, as long as you keep your duty in the future, you will not be embarrassed."
Hertai kowtowed again and again, picked up a life, gave himself ten dares and did not dare to go against the Zhao people, got up from the ground, and left with the rest of the clansmen, part of the cavalry stood in place, Hertai was helpless, the people's hearts have been lost, the Donghu people respect the hero the most, and the heart must return to the king of Zhao at this time.
"I beg King Zhao to take it in."
"I can't ask for it."
The best lamb roast makes a sizzling sound on the fire, so you can simply rest for the night and enjoy the food.
At night, Zhao Kuo sat on the ground, with residual temperature after charcoal roasting, lying on it was extremely comfortable, the periphery was completely controlled by the guards, and there were more than 1,000 Donghu people in the cavalry camp.
"My lord, why did you spare that man and his tribe today?"
A person came to the front, Zhao Kuo nodded and signaled, the man sat on it, "Is it really impossible to kill everything, there are no cattle and sheep, no herdsmen, the grassland will lose its vitality, although the way of force is everywhere, it is just a little, what should happen after the prosperity?" ”
The man shook his head, it was too profound to comprehend, Zhao Kuo sighed, "It is decay, once it falls into decay, the people who originally succumbed to force will inevitably take the opportunity to make trouble, just like this spark, once it matures, it can rise to the trend of burning the prairies." ”
Zhao Kuo simply explained the truth in the grassland, and the man nodded again and again, "The king's words have benefited a lot, and the king wants to completely conquer people's hearts." ”
"That's the hardest thing to do."
Hertai spit on the ground with a mouthful of thick phlegm, people can't help but be proud on the horse, and they can save their lives after two encounters, only I am extremely smart in the world Hertai, thinking of this, I can't help but laugh out loud, and look back, "Cheer up, don't follow the dead one by one." ”
Disgusted eyes from time to time, how many people began to regret that they shouldn't follow this person, outsiders don't know, how the clansmen don't know, the so-called name of the warrior is just a deliberate arrangement by the previous old patriarch, it seems to be calm on the surface, but the dark tide is already turbulent behind the scenes.
"Stop."
Hertai's eyes lit up, and the people around him knew that there were only two things that could attract the patriarch so much, beautiful women and fine wine, dozens of tents appeared in front of him, I don't know which tribe settled, two women put a change of clothes on the crossbar in front of the tent, one of them was well-proportioned and fair-skinned, his toes were raised, and his plump buttocks were full of temptation.
"Kill all the men of the tribe, and take away all the cattle, sheep and women." Hull's face was happy, all the unhappiness dissipated in an instant, life was short, and it was not clear whether he would be alive tomorrow, so he simply enjoyed himself in time, and the beauty suddenly moved his mind in front of him.
"You can't do that."
"I said yes, go quickly."
Hertai's eyes widened, the guards behind him rushed out quickly, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, the two women turned around, the straw pots made of dry grass fell to the ground, and the screams rang out and rushed to the camp tent.
The woman's scream once again stimulated Herthee's nerves, and the man laughed on the horse, enjoying the sight of the eyes, the law of the jungle is like this, so that the weak tribe should not have existed in the first place.
