Chapter 385 Gu Datou's Misunderstanding
Xiliang, Qian'an Mountains.

A group of unrefined savages gathered together.

They were tearing up the greasy leg of lamb while staring at the map in Gu Datou's hand.

"Boss, there's nothing wrong with this map, right?"

"Impossible!" Gu Datou still had a bald head.

He shook his head, "This is old Ren's painting, absolutely impossible to make mistakes."

"According to the markings on the map, Qian'an Mountain is surrounded by the largest pasture of the Blood Moon tribe, so we made a big detour to get in. Look at the sky..."

Gu Datou couldn't help but look up to the sky.

When it comes to golden autumn, the sky is high and the air is refreshing.

Except for a few white clouds, the huge sky is all blue.

But it was the empty sky that made them frown.

Qian'anling Grassland is the largest pasture of the Blood Moon tribe. It is understandable that there are no livestock on the ground for a while, but there should be vigilant eagles hovering in the sky.

But there was nothing in the sky.

Gu Datou's heart skipped a beat, and he decided to look south.

"Perhaps those broken eagles were attracted by Lao Lu?"

The grassland is vast and boundless, compared to three thousand cavalry, it is just a grain of sand, and it is difficult to touch it after being sprinkled in.

But once they are found or tracked by the enemy, it will be a very large team, and it will not be easy to escape.

So since crossing the Benlu tribe, Gu Datou and Lu Youtian first made an appointment to meet each other in the future, and then divided the 3000 people into two, and each took half of the people to go west.

After more than two months of rushing and walking slowly, now they have finally arrived at the territory of the Blood Moon tribe, one south and one north, and they are going to do big things here.

"Big head," said someone next to him, "If Lao Lu and the others are really targeted by the blood moon's hawks, they may be hard to escape. We have to do something as soon as possible."

Gu Datou nodded, and threw down the leg of lamb in his hand with a bang.

"Brothers, hurry up and eat, we have work to do."

"understood."

"clear."

The others had heard clearly earlier, and they didn't say much. After a few responses, they all speeded up their eating.

----

About [-] miles south of Qian'an Mountain, on the top of an unnamed hill.

Lu Youtian stood in the bushes, looking around with his binoculars.

After a while, he frowned deeply.

The surrounding pastures are abundant, but there are no cattle grazing on the ground, and no eagles hovering in the sky.

Could it be that Gu Datou was being targeted by the Blood Moon tribe?
Blood Moon is one of the most well-known large tribes on the grassland.Although the patriarch and the young patriarch Xueyue Yingxiang followed the Xiliang army to the east of the grassland and Dingxi County, the strength of the headquarters should not be underestimated.

It is not a problem to eat at least 3000 of them.

Thinking of this, Lu Youtian felt a little anxious.

He carefully observed the surrounding area and determined the direction of the wind, and then he strode down the mountain with a few personal guards.

"Have you rested, brothers? It's time to work!"

The two teams, one from the south and the other from the north, issued orders almost at the same time.

Set fire to the grasslands.

It's almost Mid-Autumn Festival, and it's time for herdsmen in the grasslands to hoard fodder for the winter.

The larger the tribe, the more food and grass that needs to be hoarded.

If 3000 of them burn a pasture, some herdsmen of the Blood Moon tribe may be forced to move to other places, and it will be easier to divide and destroy them.

Even if it can't be destroyed, it's good to create estrangement or even conflict between Blood Moon and its surrounding tribes.

Just do it, 3000 people on horseback set fire without hesitation.

wow wow.

The sky is high and the air is crisp, and the grassland will be lit at one o'clock.

The wind blows and the fire rises, and the fire quickly spreads towards the southeast with the wind.

After a while, all the fires formed a large area, overwhelming the sky and rushing forward.

Tick ​​tick tick.

"Are you going to die?" Gu Datou blew a piercing suona in anxiety, "Why are you still in a daze, let's go!"

At this time of year, the wind on the grassland mostly blows from northwest to southeast, but occasionally it repeats.

If the fire came back, the group of them might be buried in the flames.

So after lighting the fire, you must leave quickly.

Tapping.

Thousands of horses galloped, and everyone followed him and galloped towards the west.

Blood Moon settlement, outskirts.

Drive!

Zhi Ling didn't care about his love for the horse, so he whipped the horse's buttocks hard.

After seeing the continuous tents in front of him, he was refreshed, and the horsewhip in his hand suddenly lashed harder.

"Who is it?" The guards on the outskirts of the settlement had seen him a long time ago, and hurriedly shouted, "Dismount immediately and report your name, otherwise we will shoot arrows."

The old man next to him slapped that guy, "Are you blind? He's Zhi Ling from my next door."

"Oh!" The man felt a little aggrieved.

Blood Moon is a large tribe with a large number of people.

Moreover, Zhiling means handsome and handsome in Xiliang language. Almost every tribe has more or less one or even a few such names, so it's normal for the guard not to recognize him.

Before Zhi Ling rushed to the fence, he had already yelled from a distance, "Lao Ba Lao Ba, I have an emergency to report to the clan elders, let someone clear the way."

wow wow.

The guards of the settlement hurriedly removed the fence and other obstacles to make way for them.

Zhi Ling just arrived and thanked him loudly.

He rode into the settlement in the blink of an eye and disappeared among tents, large and small.

"What's the rush?"

The blood moon people around looked at Zhi Ling's disappearing figure, and looked back to the west thoughtfully.

However, the west is peaceful, and nothing unusual can be seen at all.

Lao Ba came back to his senses and yelled to stop, "What are you looking at, hurry up and work."

They are building walls.

Xueyue sent an army eastward to conquer Yunchui, but in the end, they were stopped at Yanzhen Fortress and Dianshi City.After all the hardships and heavy casualties, they were still unable to move forward.

And the Angier tribe in the west didn't know what medicine they took wrongly, and they actually built a wall around their settlements in a decent manner.

Blood Moon didn't look good, so he quickly followed suit.

After discussion by the Council of Elders, they also sent a large number of people to start building a thick and long city wall along the periphery of the settlement.

Of course, this is thick and long compared to the wooden fence of the previous Blood Moon.

For any small city in Yunchui, the walls they built are not worth mentioning.

Report!
Zhi Ling hurried to the elders' meeting and jumped off the horse with a bang.

"A fire broke out in Qian'an Grassland in the west. The fire was raging, lasting more than [-] miles, and it was getting bigger and bigger. The brothers have been unable to put out the fire and are moving livestock and fodder. Specially send me back to report to the elders."

what?
Several elders looked up to see the direction of the wind, and their faces changed immediately.

"Why is it on fire?"

Zhi Ling shook his head, "My subordinates don't know. I only saw that the sky to the west was full of thick smoke. In a blink of an eye, the fire was connected into one piece, and then burned to the front. I don't know what happened at all."

The elders gathered more and more, and they jumped up and down anxiously after hearing the news.

With such a ferocious fire, and the northwest wind blowing from heaven, I am afraid that except for a small number of fast-footed horses, other livestock and harvested forage will be buried in the flames.

"Damn it, where are your hawks? Why don't you send them to stare."

There are eagles and swans, as long as there is a small flame within a hundred miles, they will have been discovered and alarmed by them.It wouldn't be discovered until the fire burned down.

Zhi Ling was full of grievances, "Elder Kai, our eagles and owls are still young and not ready for use."

As for the adult eagles and owls, aren't they all sent to the front line in the east?
cough cough.

Only then did the elders come to their senses, and coughed a few times to cover up.

A while ago, the communication between Stone City and the Benlu tribe suddenly became extremely difficult. The messengers sent by the Xiliang army could be said to have sent one to die, and one pair to kill the other.

Xueyue Yingxiang couldn't figure it out, but the communication between the front and rear could not be interrupted for a long time, so he had to call his idea on the eagle in his hometown.

It is no problem to use eagles and swans to send letters, as long as they are trained like carrier pigeons.However, the eagles and owls trained in this way usually just foolishly fly to the hometown of the Blood Moon tribe, which can be said to be of little use.

So Xueyue Yingxiang had no choice but to pick up the eagle trainer and the warning eagles.

And such eagles and owls are extremely precious, there are only six in the entire Angel tribe, and there are not many blood moons.

Gu Datou and the others didn't know about this, so there was a misunderstanding.
