Chapter 236: An Army Comes West

A cavalry was galloping on the Xianbei grassland, they were heading westward, extremely fast, the scenery along the way jumped rapidly, and when they passed the rest of the tribes, and saw those tents in the distance, the cavalry also galloped and brushed, and did not stop. According to the estimate, there are about five or six thousand cavalry, all of them are like wolves and tigers, they are soldiers in the prime of life, and the war horses under the seats are also shiny fur, at a glance, you can know that these are good war horses in the eyes of horse merchants, and the worst are medium war horses.

The cavalrymen were dressed in leather armor, with felt hats on their heads, swords at their waists, and quivers and longbows on their backs. It can be said that everyone wears armor, swords, and hanging bows, which can already be regarded as elite soldiers on the grassland, and just looking at the equipment of the soldiers, you can see the strength and wealth of a tribe. In the grassland, the wealth of a tribe is linked to its strength, and tribes with financial resources, without the strength to protect, have become the prey of stronger tribes. After layers of hunting, it becomes a pyramid situation, and the tribes standing at the top are often tribes that have both strength and wealth.

These cavalrymen all have the characteristics of a man on the grassland, with thick body hair and extremely strong bodies, all of them are like strong bears in human shape, and they are very strong. The light that came out of their eyes was a kind of fluorescence, similar to the green light of the wild wolves on the grassland. When they saw the tribes that passed by, they were all staring with scrutinizing eyes, weighing, looking at their prey with a kind of eyes.

If it weren't for the fact that there was a mission, suppressed by the Xianbei general who led the front, there was almost no doubt that these cavalry, after comparing the strength of the two sides, would have pounced on the tribe that could not resist their cavalry. Tear them to shreds, rob them of their wealth and their wives and daughters for themselves, and kill all those who resist. This kind of **** is the ecology on the grassland, which is the real jungle.

The peoples on the grassland will not only go south, nor will they only use butcher knives to the outside world. Internally, in the presence of people of the same nation who are not part of their tribe, they will raise their butcher's knives and deprive them of everything they have. Just like a hungry wolf, as long as its strength is enough, then it will also attack its own kind, tear it apart fiercely, and swallow it into its belly.

They are the beasts, and the beasts are generally the ones who kill their competitors, defeat them, and become the leading leaders, occupying the privileges of food and breeding. This is the man of the steppe, and what they choose is such a path, to have as much wealth and women as possible. Like those tigers who slaughter tiger cubs, they can also do the same to other people's children, for the sake of their own family, the reproduction of their tribe.

They went all the way to the west, from the eastern Xianbei through the central part to the western Xianbei, which was almost equivalent to crossing most of the Xianbei grassland, and it took no more and no less time to reach the destination. So along the way, in addition to the necessary rest and stop, they even eat and drink on horseback, so to speak, people do not leave the horse.

Such a long period of horseback riding is probably only possible for these peoples on horseback, and ordinary cavalry cannot march for such a long time. Since childhood, the tradition of riding horses has made the skin at the base of their thighs rougher and tougher than ordinary people, so they only feel a little uncomfortable in their thighs after a long time of fighting, and they will not be blurred with flesh and blood.

"Dorag, are you sure they're heading east?" Tiege asked right away. He is one of the most fierce generals in the Tiemu tribe, and he is also the younger brother of the current patriarch Tie Li, which can be seen from his stature and appearance, because he is almost the same as Tie Li, who is known as a violent bear.

He was a rough man, who cared only about wine and women, and at the same time had strong force, and had great respect for his brother, and did not hesitate to carry out his orders. Therefore, he was able to survive the battle for the position of the patriarch, instead of being torn apart by the iron force of the violent bear like the other three brothers. It became the whitish lump of meat in the boiling water!

"I can confirm that, and Elder Tiege, we can hear from them along the way. As long as the news of any tribe being slaughtered comes through, then it can be confirmed which region the Han people in Bingzhou are in. Dorag said categorically. It is impossible for him to be undetermined, in front of the patriarch and this iron force, if there are other signs and are determined to have other ideas, he may become one of their collection of night pots or wine glasses, of course, it is more likely that he will be crippled and go to the grassland to feed the wolves. But at any point, Dorag didn't want to be treated like that.

"Good." Tie Li nodded, took out the sheepskin bladder filled with liquor from his bosom, and poured it into his mouth a few times. The wine trickled down between his lips, down his chin, and finally down his beard.

After drinking to the satisfaction of the incomparable, he burped contentedly, and the smell of alcohol mixed with the smell of food left over from the whole year of brushing his teeth was emitted and overflowed into the air. The other Xianbei cavalry could only look at it with envy, they also had wine in their arms, but they didn't dare to drink it when Tie Li didn't speak, otherwise it would not be something that could be solved by a few squatting horsewhips. I can only watch, look at it with great eagerness, and the wine worms in my stomach are greedy, so I can only endure it desperately.

It can be seen that the majesty of iron power is very heavy.

"Sons." Tie Li's face was red, slightly drunk.

"As long as you find the traces of the Han cavalry, then no matter what the patriarch will reward you, I will allow you to find a small tribe at random and have a good time."

"Oooh!" The Xianbei cavalry shouted frantically, and a look of joy appeared on their faces. In their eyes, there was an even more greedy gaze, in which there was an endless stream of wine, and cattle and sheep, and scenes of enjoying their women in front of men. All of these will appear soon, and they are already so excited that their blood is boiling!

The speed of this cavalry increased considerably, and its direction, the end point it was about to reach, was the Ulim River. Their tracking skills are not good, but they don't have any tracking experience, but as long as they can find any bit of information about the slaughtered tribes on the grassland, they can search in that general direction and find the cavalry that is heading north!
