Chapter 172
"Hey, Xiao Zhao is doing well today, and it seems that he will be the coach in two months."

"Stop praising him, this kid can fly his tail up to the sky."

"Hahaha……"

Seeing that everyone was teasing him, Hao Zhao blushed with shame, and hit his face with a handful of stream water, with a somewhat annoyed expression on his face.

He did kill many barbarians without any risk, but the main reason was that Zhong Xian was protecting him behind him.

Several times, he was almost killed by the barbarians who pretended to be dead because of his carelessness. If it wasn't for Zhong Xian, he would probably be out of control by now.

After all, he slacked off.

In many cases, he could actually make up for an extra knife, but in order to compete with the silver carp and the others, he didn't think so much at the time. He only thought about killing as many people as possible, and the more he could be appreciated by the young master.

However, just now he witnessed two civilian husbands being killed by a dying barbarian. If the silver carp hadn't discovered it in time, perhaps more than two civilian husbands died...

As soon as he thought of the enemy he thought he had killed, suddenly violently hurting others, he felt a burst of fear and regret in his heart.

"Okay, clean up the blood, and eat quickly, there is still a tough battle to fight." Xu Ding's voice came from afar.

Everyone heard the words and hurriedly got up.

Fasten the tie of the stab-proof suit, check the equipment with him, and after confirming that it is correct, he hurriedly ran towards the team he belonged to.

Hao Zhao followed behind the silver carp. He didn't belong to any team. He was a small banner chief in his job. In fact, everyone knew that he was a related household who followed him to experience and practice. He took care of him a lot and doted on him. After all, his age Also small.

Upstream of the creek, Wei Cheng personally bandaged a few seriously injured team members.

The most seriously injured one had more than a dozen stitches, and the others were minor wounds, and they could go into battle and kill the enemy with a little hemostatic powder.

It is impossible for the little fresh meat of the later generations to cry for their father and mother when they cut their fingers. If it weren’t for Wei Cheng’s explicit order that any injury must be disinfected and bandaged, many people would not bother to come here, and just grab a handful of plant ashes to treat it. All right.

Behind Wei Cheng, Xu Chu said in a deep voice: "The city guards sacrificed 12 people, and six civilian husbands died. The corpses have been sealed up."

Wei Cheng frowned slightly, nodded and said, "Understood, the dead brothers must be brought back to Anyi. At that time, I will erect a hero's tomb for them, and let everyone know their heroic deeds."

Several injured team members looked at each other in blank dismay, is there such a good thing to sacrifice?
Hero Tomb, that can honor the ancestors.

"Okay, let's get moving, the moon is dark and the wind is high and the night is killing people, there is still a good show tonight, everyone, don't fall asleep."

"Hahaha, don't worry, my lord, I, Gao Laosan, can still wield a big knife, and I'll just wait for my lord's order."

"Hey, third child, the scar is healed and he forgot the pain. You still have the nerve to show off your skills?"

"Why, you want to compare with me?"

"Bi, Bi, I'm afraid of you."

Wei Cheng looked at the two wounded who were choking on each other, smiled and shook his head.

Looking back at Xu Chu, he said: "Look at these two people for a while, don't let them go into battle, one has nine stitches, the other has thirteen stitches, the wound is easy to open if they move too much, find someone to watch them."

"what?"

"Young master, don't, my youngest can still fight!"

Wei Cheng said with a smile: "If you can fight, save some energy. There will be many opportunities to use you in the future. I don't want to lose a strong general for mere barbarians."

"Hey, the young master said that I am a fierce general, did you hear that, my third son is a fierce general, the young master said."

"cut."

"Virtue..."

Wei Cheng watched them squabble amusedly, looked up at the sky, and said to Xu Chu, "Let's go, meet my second uncle, and take a look at what the barbarian's lair looks like."

Twenty miles away from here, on a hill more than 50 meters high.

Wei Min controls Tianyantong and is investigating the defense layout in the valley.

When Wei Cheng and others arrived, he and Zhong Xian had already set up a sand table with mounds of soil and stones.

"Teng'er came at the right time. Look, there are indeed many fortifications in this valley, arrow towers, fences, horse traps... There are countless means. Obviously there is an expert in the art of war in this tribe. It's a good match."

Wei Cheng looked down at the sand table on the ground, and a three-dimensional layout drawing unconsciously floated up in his mind.

The valley as a whole looks like a big tortoise shell, but the shell is placed upside down. The surrounding area is high and the middle is low. There is a lake in the middle. The area is not very large. It is estimated to be about [-] to [-] square meters. A stream on the east side connects Taihang Mountain .

There are two valley entrances on the north side and one valley entrance on the south side. The fortifications are mainly concentrated on the valley entrance on the south side. From this point of view, the military division of the Qingya Department does have two brushes.

For these people who grew up on horseback, as long as they reached the grassland, it was almost impossible for them to catch them all.

Wei Cheng was also in trouble for a while.

"Can you roughly determine how many people are still fighting in the valley?" Xu Ding asked from the side.

Wei Min and Zhong Xian looked at each other, and said: "According to Brother Zhong, Hu people, regardless of men, women, old or weak, are all capable of fighting."

Xu Ding was stunned.

Zhong Xian made a gesture, basically saying that you must not be careless when facing barbarians.

Wei Cheng nodded in agreement, and said, "Uncle Zhong is right, there is no distinction between men and women in the bravery of Hu people, we have to admit that."

Everyone's expressions were different, Wei Cheng's words were a little bit like the meaning of other people's aspirations destroying their own prestige.

Seeing this, Wei Cheng said with a smile: "However, old and weak women and children are old and weak women and children after all. We have killed [-] of the bravest men, so we are afraid that only tens of thousands of women and children will fail?"

"Master, do you have a plan?" Xu Ding's eyes lit up, and he asked hastily.

Wei Cheng crossed his arms with confidence, nodded slightly, and said, "It's actually very simple. First, determine the number of households from the number of tents. The Hu people are a matriarchal society. There is only one woman who heads a tent. We calculate according to three adult men per tent. The 2 people killed in the afternoon can almost be used to figure out the remaining troops."

Wei Min was shocked when he heard the words, and said, "I counted the tents, and there are 350 two."

Xu Ding was stunned for a moment, and said happily: "So, isn't the man almost killed by us?"

Wei Cheng shook his head and said, "[-] adult men are just my estimate, and you haven't counted women and children. Normally, adult men only account for [-]% of a family's population, that is, there are at least three adult men in ten people. man."

"According to this, there are at least [-] old and weak women and children in the valley below, and there are about [-] adults, and we only have [-] cavalry, and Lei Zhenzi can't be used. After all, it is not easy to fight." Xu Said with a sigh.

They also wanted to rescue the Han people who were captured and enslaved, and killing people was secondary.

Wei Cheng nodded slightly in agreement, while looking at the sand table on the ground thoughtfully.
