Zhuangda Tang Juvenile Lang

Chapter 105 Infighting
When the first ray of sunlight shone on the grassland in the morning, the fire that had been burning all night had subsided, and there were charred tents, broken corpses, scattered cattle and sheep, and nearly a thousand slaves, Turkic captives, women and children in panic.

With the explanation and persuasion of Xie Yingdeng, Gao Cheng, Li Mu and others, all Han slaves accepted Qin Feng as the "new master".The hundreds of Turkic people who were converted from masters to slaves all looked sad. The Han people who were slaves in the past and now turned into masters stared at them and knelt down.

No one struggled, and no one resisted. On the grassland, it was normal for powerful tribes to annex weak ones.

Natural selection, the law of the jungle is the most important principle that all grassland people have followed for thousands of years.

Today I am Daozu, and tomorrow I will be fish meat. This is the innate awareness of every prairie person.

Looking at the black Han slaves who were sitting, kneeling or standing, what they came into contact with were numb faces, shrinking eyes, and crooked backs...

Qin Feng had no choice but to smile bitterly, his soul was dead, and what was alive was just a walking corpse. Can these people really be counted on?
"These people are hopeless!" Luo Tong looked disgusted.

Even the careless Cheng Chumo scolded angrily: "These trash are addicted to being dogs."

"That's right, you shouldn't be a good person, why do you have to be a dog?" Yuchi Baoqing was also stunned.

The response to everyone was deathly silence.

After a while, Li Yexu suddenly smiled and said, "It doesn't matter whether it's a human or a dog! The important thing is that they can ride horses and herd herds. They can help us bring the spoils back to the Central Plains. Aren't dogs more obedient than humans?"

Qin Feng's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "Slavery is not formed in a day or two, nor can it be eliminated in a day or two; Ye Xu's method is good, our troops are not enough, if we divide our troops to drive cattle and horses, the combat power will be dispersed, and we cannot To deal with unexpected situations, and these people are proficient in grazing, much better than us."

Cheng Chu refused to accept: "Boss, how do you confirm that they are better than us at grazing?"

"Those who don't know how to herd herds are probably dead long ago. No one needs waste. The new army is like this, so why not the Turks." Luo Tong replied in place of Qin Feng.

Cheng Chumo suddenly realized.

Qin Feng said: "The grassland follows the law of the weak and the strong, and the weak have long been eliminated by the harsh environment and others. Well, didn't Li Mu always want to join the new army? Let him choose a group of young and strong people who intend to join the army, the supervisor This group of people is the task given to him, and it is also the first test."

"I can see it!"

"agree!"

The four expressed their opinions one after another.

"Li Mu, come here." Qin Feng waved to Li Mu who couldn't help looking over here.

Li Mu flew over and said happily, "General Qin, did you agree to join us?" Last night, none of the new soldiers died, and they massacred five Turkic tribes.

Such a record made Li Mu envious.

He let Turkic captives to the grassland since he was a child. He didn't know anything about Han culture, but he had the temperament of a grassland man. He had long admired the fierce, brave, powerful, and mighty new army.He also knew that this "weak scholar" was the person in charge, so Li Mu, who wanted to join the new army, paid attention to Qin Feng from time to time.Now when I heard his call, I was overjoyed.

"I've seen General Qin, General Luo, General Li, General Cheng, and General Yuchi. General, please give me instructions." Li Mu has the warm and cheerful personality of a prairie person. After most of the day, he infected some new troops with his enthusiasm, and he knew that The names of several chief generals.

Qin Feng couldn't help laughing and said: "Li Mu, I know you want to join the new army, but not everyone in the new army can join. Among them, they have to go through many tests and selections. I am not targeting you specifically. If you don’t believe me, you can ask a few more soldiers from the new army.”

"I've asked, I've asked." Listening to Qin Feng's tone of relief, Li Mu was overjoyed and said, "I'm not afraid of trials and selections. The more intense the competition, the more brutal the selection, the best soldiers can be selected. I like this army."

"Okay! It's still the same sentence: return to the Central Plains, and I will give you the same opportunity." Qin Feng changed his voice and said, "Now I have a task for you. Find people with ambition, courage, and self-motivation among the crowd. Young and strong people who are willing to join the army come out, the number is up to you, and my standard is that the shortage is better than the excess."

"Subordinates obey!"

"Can this guy do it?" Luo Tong asked after Li Mu left.

Qin Feng said: "If you don't try, how will you know?" Li Mu is only about [-], but he seems to be the leader of the first batch of escaped slaves, which shows that he has a certain level of appeal and leadership, and the new army needs a lot of them. mid-level officers.For those who want to join the new army, Qin Feng has no reason to reject them. Besides, this guy is a character taught by Xie Yingdeng himself. He must have a good level of force and archery. As long as he is a talent, there is no reason to miss it. .

……

"General, I'm back!" Half an hour later, Li Mu came back out of breath.

Qin Feng asked: "How many people are eligible?"

"Reporting to the general, there are 85 young and strong Han people who can ride horses and shoot arrows and are willing to join the army, including me." Li Mu was very ashamed. It's less than a third, and it's a bit embarrassing to be part of it.

"85 people... that's a lot." Qin Feng muttered while beating his boots with a horsewhip, "You will temporarily act as the leader of this group of people, mainly responsible for protecting the safety of this group of people, and assisting everyone in taking care of this large group oxen and horses."

Several tribes were shattered, and countless cattle and horses were obtained.Qin Feng left some Turkic people behind for the purpose of assisting the Han slaves in managing these animals.The horse slaves were guarded by the Han slaves, and the Han slaves found a place to raise the captured cattle, sheep and horses.

The main job of Li Mu and others is to assist the Han people to suppress possible Turkic riots in time.Of course, there is also the element of supervising the Han slaves, but he didn't know that those Han slaves would never run away.Because they have been oppressed by foreigners for a long time, and the grasslands are far away from the territory of the Han people, they have developed a submissive character, and those who dare to resist cannot survive at all.

Li Mu's eyes lit up, and he immediately said: "General, there are four small tribes with hundreds of people nearby, and their combat effectiveness is surprisingly poor. We can eat them, plunder their cattle and horses, rescue the Han people, and strengthen our strength."

Qin Feng glanced at Li Mu in surprise, and nodded approvingly: "Yes, I thought of it with me. On the way to the south, I met a tribe and I was settled. Why can the Turkic people bully me and the Han people and not allow us to take revenge?"

Li Mu was even more delighted. These young men hated the Turkic people who enslaved them. Qin Feng's plan touched his heart.
It was because of Qin Feng's words that the new army became locusts passing through the border on the way south, leaving Turks always with scorched earth and ruins full of bones.

……

And this elusive army, every time a tribe is destroyed, some Han people who are suffering and enslaved here will be rescued.

Every day, the team going south will increase a lot of people, like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger, with more people, more cattle and more horses.When they approached Shuozhou, the number of them had reached a frightening [-] or more, and there were more than [-] animals of various kinds. It can be said without hesitation that the new army's trip was a rewarding experience.

It was also at this time that the scouts sent the news of Chai Shao's victory over Jieli.

"General, after the Turks were defeated for a while half a month ago, Tuli and Yinan took the opportunity to attack. Jieli led more than [-] people and fled to the north. Tuli and Yinan followed suit." In a grassland, the scout reported to Qin Feng.

"Haha... good, good, good! The Turks are finally in chaos." Qin Feng laughed loudly. These days, in order to prevent the Turks from feeling his existence, he has racked his brains to think of various ways to avoid the Turks. human scout.Now that the Turks are in chaos and have retreated, the new army can return to the Central Plains in an open and honest manner.

……

"General, the new army Luo Tong is asking to see you." In the evening, Chai Shao, who was still busy with post-war work, got the news from the new army.

"Please!" Chai Shao was overjoyed. These days, Li Shimin has asked many times.But as soon as the new army left, they disappeared into the desert. Chai Shao sent people to search for all they could find, but unfortunately they couldn't find a hair.

"Boys, you finally appeared, and you can finally explain to the emperor." Pressed by Li Shimin, even the gentle Confucian general almost swears.

A few days ago, when the Turks went south, Chai Shao couldn't get out of retreat, so as to consume the Turks' vigor.However, every night, he sent troops out of the city to carry out a strategy of exhaustion. Whenever the Turkic people were about to rest, the Tang army would always take turns to harass them.

After a few days, the Turkic soldiers were exhausted. When the Turkic people were accustomed to harassment, Xue Wanjun personally led the army to attack the Turkic camp on a rainy night and won a hearty victory.

Among them, five thousand cavalry were divided into two teams, pretending to be Tuli and Yinan soldiers, and attacking Jieli's tent together.It was Ye Jieli who suffered heavy losses, and he himself almost died under the rebellion. In a rage, he sent troops to interrogate Tuli and Yinan, trying to punish them for their collusion with the enemy.

Tuli and Yinan have had different ambitions for a long time, and the "Jieli Army" took the opportunity to burn and kill their own people when they left the army. want to take the opportunity to eliminate dissidents.

Together, the two of them returned to their respective tents and led the headquarters to attack Xieli's tent on the left and right wings. Although Xieli was well prepared, they were in a panic when they attacked at the same time.However, Xieli is the great Khan of the Turks after all. Relying on his superiority in military strength, he stabilized the overall situation with the loss of [-] soldiers, and he has the momentum to suppress Tuli and Yinan.

Chai Shao, who pays close attention to the progress of the situation, knows that once Tuli and Yi Nan die here, then the Tang Dynasty will be greeted by a Turkic Turk with a unified mind and one mind, and it will be even more difficult to win in the future. On this occasion, Chai Shao He decisively led [-] Tang troops out of the city, ready to assist Tuli and Yinan in fighting.

Seeing that something was wrong, Jieli led the army to flee the battlefield.

Knowing the consequences of letting the tiger go back to the mountain, Tuli and Yinan joined forces and headed towards the direction where Jieli was fleeing, vowing to kill Jieli.

In a hurry, he left without even asking for strategic materials.In this way, Tang Jun became a policeman who washed the ground, and all the military resources of the Turkic forces fell into the hands of Datang. In this battle, Tang Jun can be said to have made a lot of money.
