Chapter 502
"middle!"

Huang Zhong took the lead to turn around, took the bow and set an arrow directly towards Gu Jin's department and shot three arrows in a row, and the three generals around Gu Jin fell from their horses one after another.

This put great psychological pressure on Gu Jin and his subordinates.

What an incomparable arrow of the Han Dynasty, so amazing is the arrow technique, even among the Xianbei, there may not be a few of them who can match it.

"Kill, kill him!"

Gu Jin can be regarded as a braver person in Xianbei, and the more frustrated he became, the more he aroused his warlike heart.

So he urged his horse to approach Huang Zhong, and soon the two got close, Gu Jin swung his big bone stick and knocked towards Huang Zhong's Tianling Gai.

Huang Zhong grasped the pan knife and raised it slightly.

"Chong!"

After a short exchange, the two horses missed, and then Huang Zhong slashed at the back of Gu Jin's head.

Gu Jin consciously wanted to avoid it, but his reaction was a bit slow, and he saw the knife fall down, pulling a long cut straight from the back of his head.

Gu Jinchi fell off the horse with a painful grunt, and was crushed by the shiny and hard horseshoes of the Han army.

As soon as Gu Jin died, the morale of his troops plummeted. Facing the Han army that could fight with both hands free, few people could resist.

Xu Ding and Huang Zhong rushed back and forth, chopping and killing the Xianbei army who were still stubbornly resisting.

The escaped Xianbei army, herdsmen, women and children were all besieged and captured by people arranged by Xu Huang.

This time, more seizures made Wuhuan's ministries smile and cheer endlessly.

Now they know the true combat effectiveness of the Han cavalry.

Six thousand against six thousand, only hundreds of people were killed and injured, and they won by an absolute advantage.

Sure enough, they are incomparable to the Wuhuan people.

All the ministries carefully put away their little thoughts, and complimented Xu Ding and the generals of the Han army even more.

"The captives just said that the Gujin Department is nearby. In order to prevent them from escaping, Gongming, you take five thousand Wuhuan soldiers and horses to encircle them." As soon as he stopped, Xu Ding immediately asked Xu Huang to lead the troops to destroy the remaining troops of the Gu Jin Department.

Xu Huang took the order and left.

Returning the next day, the Gu Jin Department was wiped out, and a large number of cattle, sheep and horses were also seized.

They also sent some troops to escort the captives and spoils back to the Liaodong vassal state, and Xu Ding led the people to continue sweeping the grassland.

In the next two days, many tribes were wiped out, but the Mijia tribe was never found.

Finally, it was learned from the captives of a small tribe that the Mijia tribe had heard the news and moved north and fled.

"Master Hou, do we want to chase?" Ta Dun asked.

The sweeping of the Eastern Xianbei these days has given the Wuhuan tribes a taste of their heads. For the Mijia tribe, the three major Xianbei tribes in the east, Tadun and others are coveted.

Xu Ding said: "No need, it is estimated that Ke Bineng and others will withdraw soon, and we will fight against the main force next, save some strength!"

Tadun, Nanlou, Samad Khan, Pulu and the others regretted that the last piece of fat slipped away like this.

"Of course it can't be so cheap. Mi Jia, come and set fire to me and burn the northern grassland!" Xu Ding stretched out his hand to feel the change of the wind direction, and immediately gave an order.

Set fire to the prairie!
Ta Dun, Nan Lou, Samad Khan, Pu Lu and others were shocked.

This is a dead end trick.

The grassland tribes rely most on the grassland, and a good grassland is the foundation of their survival.

Although it is autumn and winter, the vegetation is withered and yellow, but it is a pity to set fire to it, which will be a destructive damage to the growth of next year.

The grasslands burned by the fire have declined growth and reduced livestock carrying capacity. Even if they can survive here, they cannot develop and grow.

Because there is no grassland to conserve water and maintain water and soil, it will cause waterlogging, drought, mudslides, landslides, sandstorms and other natural disasters.

This is what the grassland tribes fear most.

Of course, this is also the most commonly used tactic when the Central Plains Dynasty attacked the grassland tribes and withdrew troops.

If you can't find an enemy in the vast grassland, then destroy the grassland and force the grassland tribes to migrate to reduce the threat of the border.

Anyway, the Han people don't need to live in the grasslands, and if the grasslands are damaged, the grasslands will be damaged, and it doesn't matter much.

The problem is that in the past, this kind of tactic was only used when withdrawing from the south to return to the country and return to the border. Now it is still fighting against Ke Bineng and other Xianbei main forces.

Ta Dun hurriedly said: "Master Hou, isn't it too early to set the fire at this time? The wind on the grassland is a bit erratic, and the fire of thousands of people is going south with the wind, so we will be extremely passive."

Don't let the fire go north to kill the fleeing Mijiabu, turn around and burn south, and burn yourself to death.

Fire Attack is always used with extreme caution.

Nan Lou, Samad Khan, Pu Lu and others also echoed.

On the one hand, they are also worried that the change of heart will burn on themselves, and on the other hand, they also feel sorry for this grassland.

What a wonderful land, it would be a pity to burn it. Killing the Xianbei people, they migrated here to nomadic herds, and the various tribes of Wuhuan can develop rapidly, so of course they don't want Xu Ding to set fire to it.

But Xu Ding was determined to burn, and he refused in words: "It's not early at all, it's just right, the wind direction will be northward for the next few days, don't worry about the fire going south, follow the order, and give me relief. The entire northern border is ordered."

Of course Xu Ding knew the small thoughts of Nanlou, Samad Khan, Pulu and others, but he just wanted to cut off their thoughts and at the same time increase the hatred between him and Xianbei.

Dare to fight against the big man, dare to fight against him in Qingzhou and Pingzhou, this is the end.

According to the current geographical location, I can infer that I should have come out of the front line of Inner Mongolia in later generations. The fire is burning to the north, and there is no need to worry about burning to the Daxianbei Mountains in the east and implicating the Daxingan Mountains.

As for the front line of Outer Mongolia, it's none of his business if it burns to Langjuxu Mountain.

Or burn farther to reach the boundary of Ding Lingren, which is naturally better.

How is this possible? The next few days will be north wind, and now it is autumn and winter, and the most blowing is from the north, which is southward.

Nanlou, Samad Khan, Pulu, and Tadun didn't believe it, and wanted to persuade them, but seeing Xu Ding's expression that could not be rejected or opposed, they had no choice but to follow the order.

The fire started a prairie fire, boundless, and the smoke soaring into the sky like a black dragon attacked the northern border, and after nightfall, it illuminated half of the sky.

Ke Bineng, who was returning from Gaoxian City in a hurry, and the Xianbei army who had returned, all beat their chests and howled when they received the news.

"Bastard, the Han people actually set fire to the northern border, my tribe!" Mi Jia, who was lucky that his tribe had escaped, heard the news that the Han army had set fire to the grassland. Shout out.

"So ruthless! What a big Han Wei Haihou, I will definitely defeat you and make you kneel on the ground to repent!" Ke Bi Neng didn't expect the Han army's revenge to be so strong, let alone Xu Ding's attack so ruthlessly.

Didn't it just hit Gaoxian City in your Xuantu County? As for the destruction of all the Xianbei tribes in the east, even the Mijia tribe who fled north, they even set fire to the entire northern grassland and completely cut off our roots.
