Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 547: Grassland Chaos 1
Since Gongsun Xu entered the deep grassland and there was no news, the entire northern part of Bingzhou is now basically in a state of combat readiness.Xi Zhicai is in charge of everything around Yanmen Pass, and Gao Shun is in charge of Hetao. Both of them are people with outstanding abilities. Although Xianbei and Xiongnu are making trouble at the same time, they have not allowed northern Xinjiang to be invaded.

However, Xi Zhicai also understood that this was just the beginning. The Xianbei cavalry should continue to march towards the Great Wall defense line. All he had to do was to prepare for the enemy before the arrival of the Xianbei army.

The Great Wall area is now heavily guarded, and the Xianbei cavalry has not yet approached the Great Wall.This allowed the herdsmen and Han people near the Great Wall to have enough time to migrate to the pass.Zhao Feng was ordered to do this well, and he is now busy working in the Great Wall area.

However, two hundred miles to the north of the Great Wall, it is not so good.The reason why the Xianbei cavalry did not go south now is because they were looting on the grassland.In the vicinity of the Great Wall, no matter whether it is the grassland herdsmen or the people of the Han family, they are not on the same front as them, so they are merciless in their actions.

Fortunately, there was an order in the Xianbei army: you can grab things, but try to kill as little as possible.

The reason why the Xianbei Army had this order was certainly not because of their kindness.In recent years, Gongsun Xu's policy on grassland herdsmen has been mainly to recruit and appease them. Coupled with the continuous economic development of northern Xinjiang, the nearby herdsmen have been freed from the problem of food and clothing.

Therefore, many grassland tribes are famous and come to seek refuge with Gongsun Xu.At the same time, those herdsmen who originally belonged to some large Xianbei tribes also migrated to northern Xinjiang one after another, because they would only become poorer and poorer as they followed the tribe to the north, and then they were bullied and plundered by those leaders, and finally had to work for them.

The process of these herdsmen migrating to northern Xinjiang is also the process of the gradual weakening of the strength of the Xianbei tribe.Without herdsmen, those Xianbei nobles and leaders would not have so many cattle and sheep, so much wealth, and so many warriors.

Therefore, this time the Xianbei army went south not only to attack the northern border, but also to win these herdsmen back.The best way is to let these herdsmen themselves be relocated.Now the Xianbei army blocked all the roads to northern Xinjiang. If these herdsmen who lacked food still wanted to live, then they had to migrate north and return to the Xianbei tribe.

The [-] troops of the Xianbei tribe ran rampant on the grassland, and no one stopped them at all. The Huben army fled to the west and dared not turn back. The hundreds of miles of grassland nearby have become the world of these Xianbei troops.

On the vast grassland, there are three horses, two people, and an eagle soaring in the sky.This is Gongsun Xu leading Zhen Dao on his way north.In the original plan, he was going to wait for his two personal soldiers to recruit the lost rangers to move north together, but not everything was under Gongsun Xu's control.

Less than two hours after the two personal soldiers left, the Xianbei cavalry of the brigade appeared near the mountain forest. Needless to say, most of these Xianbei cavalry had searched the surrounding places, and now they have arrived at Gongsun Xu's hiding place .

In desperation, Gongsun Xu had no choice but to take Zhen Dao through the mountains and forests, and then set out on the road after dressing up. He couldn't wait for other people to dare to join him.The Xianbei army moved very quickly, which was a bit beyond his imagination.

This is already the seventh day after Gongsun Xu went on the road. These days, Gongsun Xu tried to avoid encountering large tribes and Xianbei cavalry. At first, they could meet some people, but in the last three days, they hardly saw them. It's halfway there.

Relying on the bow and arrow in their hands, Gongsun Xu and Zhen Dao have been eating barbecued meat and drinking broth for the past two days, and finally they don't have to go through the days of being cold and hungry.Zhen Dao was pregnant and couldn't stand the bumps, so Gongsun Xu could only take her to ride slowly on the ink dragon horse.

"Where are we now?" Zhen Dao looked at the vast grassland and asked, "Husband, can the soldiers be recruited?"

"I left marks along the way." Gongsun Xu caressed Zhen Dao's beautiful hair and said, "If they can see the marks I left, they will definitely catch up, but I guess it will take ten and a half days. They won't be coming to join us within a month.

Hehe, there may be tens of thousands of Xianbei army in the next few hundred miles. If the soldiers follow like this, then the Xianbei army will also kill them.Elai and they must have thought of this too. If I'm not wrong, Elai and they will definitely find a way to lure the enemy away or defeat the enemy, otherwise they will not rush over to join us. "

"That's how it is." Zhen Dao nodded and said, "Oh, I just don't know how long we have to wander on this grassland. This kid may not come at the right time. If I hadn't delayed the trip, I'm afraid we would have been far away from Xianbei by now. The army's control range, my husband, it's all my fault."

"Fool, how can I blame you for this matter." Gongsun Xu shook his head and replied: "With me here, you can rest assured, what can the Xianbei army do to me? There are Zhengfang and them in northern Xinjiang, so I don't have to worry about everything.

Hetao is now well-equipped with soldiers and food, even if there are 10,000+ enemy troops besieging Hetao, the Hetao cannot be breached, and the Great Wall area has the courage to defend, so nothing will happen at all.Hehe, I have spent too little time with you these years, I really feel sorry for you.

This time we estimate that we will stay on the grassland for four months to half a year, and we may not leave until you give birth to your child.Let's take it as an outing. The grassland scenery is so beautiful, and I have never brought you to enjoy it. This time, I will definitely accompany you well.

Life is a long way, decades in a hurry, your youth, my time, can't be missed, and can't be wasted.These years have been spent in the flames of war. Every time I go to the battlefield, I will think of you. Every time, I will protect myself.

You played with my ass when I was a kid, and then we were separated for so long, when I found you I was busy with other things.You are always silently waiting for me at home, hehe, I owe you too much. "

"Husband, it is my happiness to be able to wait for you at home." Zhen Dao snuggled into Gongsun Xu's arms and said, "Both my father and mother told me not to disturb you. I know that all you have to do is event.

You are a first-class hero, how can you be fettered by your children's affair.do you know?When I saw those refugees in Youzhou, I saw those orphans who had lost their families and had no one to take care of them were all gathered together. Their lonely and hopeless eyes made me feel sad.

You give hope to those refugees, you make them warm and fed, you send all those orphans to orphanages and keep them from living on the streets, every time I hear these things, I am proud of you, you know ?
So, no matter how busy you are, I am willing to wait at home.We get together less and leave more, but you can let the people of northern Xinjiang live a reunion life, just for this, it is worth me waiting for you at home. "

Gongsun Xu wanted to say something more, but he felt as if his throat was blocked.Zhen Dao is always so considerate, always standing behind him silently supporting him, never complaining.

Hugging Zhen Dao tightly, a sweet smile flashed across Gongsun Xu's mouth.

"Life after life, we will never be separated." Gongsun Xu murmured, "Never leave me."

Just as the two were talking sweetly, Hai Dongqing in the sky suddenly heard a scream, and Gongsun Xu could already hear a little danger from the sound.

After thinking about it, Gongsun Xu immediately turned his horse's head and headed west. At this time, he tried to avoid everyone.

Thirty miles away, a small tribe of hundreds of people was in the middle of a fierce battle. Five hundred cavalrymen rushed into the tribe. They killed men they encountered and arrested women and children when they encountered them.There are [-] cavalry guarding the periphery. It seems that this small tribe is inevitable from this disaster.

"Report,,,,,,," a cavalryman galloped up to a rough-looking strong man and said: "Chief, there is only such a tribe within a radius of fifty miles, and the total number of cattle and sheep in this tribe is estimated to be no more than two or three thousand." I'm afraid it's still far away from the goal of the grain and grass that our army wants to collect."

"No hurry, no hurry." The leader said with a stern smile, "Aren't there still so many two-legged sheep? Continue to search for nearby tribes, and don't let any one go."

"But, leader, if Shan Yu knows what we are doing, will he..."

"I got permission from Shanyu." The man replied: "Shanyu wants the warriors of my tribe to work for him, but he can't give us enough food and grass, so of course we have to collect food and grass ourselves.

After solving this tribe, send half of the cattle, sheep and horses back to the tribe, and the rest will continue with me. By the way, are the wolves still following us? "

"Yes, the size of the wolf pack is expanding." The cavalry replied: "It is estimated that there are more than 4000 now."

"Hmph, I'm addicted to cannibalism." The leader sneered, "This group of wolves have been following us and eating dead people for a month. I'm afraid they've gotten fat from eating them. Hehe, send an order to the rest of the troops to order them to shrink. Come here, it's time for us to hunt down the wolves."

An hour later, the kilt cavalry settled the battle, and the small tribe was slaughtered, leaving only corpses on the ground.The cattle, sheep, horses, children and women in the tribe were all taken away. Except for the dilapidated tents and incomplete corpses, these people left nothing else.

More than a dozen miles away, the wolves of the brigade dared to come here smelling the smell of blood. The wolf in the lead was huge. If Gongsun Xu was here, he would probably recognize that this wolf was the wolf he led the army to encircle and suppress. The wolf that escaped from the pack.

Gongsun Xu sped up his speed to avoid this group of cavalry. Fortunately, Hai Dongqing inquired about the news for him, so he would not encounter the large cavalry.

It's just that this group of cavalry appears a bit different now. Judging from their costumes, they don't belong to the Xianbei army, nor to the Xiongnu army.But in this area where the Xiongnu and Xianbei handed over, it is strange that they can be so unscrupulous.

Even the Xianbei army would not slaughter the grassland tribes so easily, but they dared to strike without fear. What exactly did this cavalry want to do?
