Reborn in the late Northern Wei Dynasty

Chapter 413 Rumors
Ashina Kutou was relieved to hear that he was not from the Heda people. The Turks and the Heda people have been neighbors for a long time, and the sentry cavalry will not fail to recognize them. If they are stabbed by their neighbors at the western foot of Jinshan at this time, they will be destroyed. disaster.

But after all, there is a large group of foreign cavalry menacing, Ashina Kutou dare not be careless, and now the clan is no more than five thousand adults, the battle between Ashina Tumen East and Rouran is related to the rise and fall of Turks, naturally it is Going all out, it is impossible to leave too many people to guard the tribe.

Ashina Kutou immediately ordered all the surrounding herdsmen to gather in the tribe, no matter women or teenagers, they all took up arms and followed him to resist the invading enemies.

In the vast grassland, tens of thousands of cavalry rushed, and countless Turkic herdsmen fled in panic. The Xianbei cavalry behind them drank and patted their horses to catch up. .

Many herdsmen's gathering places around the tribe were raided, and everywhere they passed was a sea of ​​corpses and blood.

When Gao Jishi was able to see the Turkic tribes at the foot of Jinshan from a distance, he ordered to stop the pursuit and look for a place to camp.

Ashina Kutou heard the herdsmen who were lucky enough to escape telling each other about their murders one after another, but they never figured out which faction this group of cavalry who crossed the border like locusts belonged to. It was not until the Heda people reported that they were the Northern Qi cavalry.

Gao Jishi obeyed Gao Cheng's instructions and sent someone to contact the Heda people, telling them that Rouran had been defeated by the Turks, and inviting them to attack the Turks together.

But the Heda people did not believe the one-sided words of the Qi people. They believed that the war between the Turkic people and the Rouran people should be at a critical juncture, so the Northern Qi, the ally of the Rouran people, sent troops to Jinshan to give Ashina Tumen Add chaos to cope with Rouran.

In order to support the Turkic people to challenge the Rouran hegemony, they should not only attack the Turkic people together with the Qi people, but also serve as a good neighbor of the Turkic people, guarding this home for him, allowing him to focus on the front-line warfare and fighting with the Rouran people.

So the Heda people rejected the Northern Qi's invitation to jointly attack the Turkic tribes, and even sent someone to tell Gao Jishi that the Heda people would not allow him to slaughter wantonly on the grassland. If they did not withdraw their troops, they would definitely send troops to intervene. A mobilization order was issued, so the so-called intervention by troops is obviously not a joke, but a real action.

In the night sky of the prairie, the stars and the moon are extraordinarily bright. Gao Jishi grabbed a handful of bean grains from the bag and fed them to the mount. Even if one person and three horses can change rides, the war horse still loses weight so badly during this period that the horses run away. Thin.

The envoys of the Heda people had already been driven away. Gao Jishi didn't plan to retreat, but he also knew that he couldn't stay at the foot of Jinshan for long.

If you really want to get entangled with the Heda people here, with the current state of the horse, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get out.

The next day, when the time of ugliness arrived and the night was dark, it was the time when people were most tired and sleepy. Gao Jishi summoned his cavalry and raided the Turkic tribes at night, but because Ashina Kutou had already prepared himself, he failed.
Gao Ji style simply changed the method, no longer focused on killing and killing, but set fires and burned pastures along the way while withdrawing troops.

Now it's late autumn, and it's the season for livestock to fatten up. If you don't save all your body fat, it's hard to resist the coming winter. Gao Jishi's move is really disgusting.

Ashina Kutou didn't dare to chase after him, so he could only let Gao Jishi set fires everywhere. By the time the Heda people came to rescue, Gao Jishi had already led his troops south and fled.

Gao Jishi turned his head north and glanced at the direction of the Turkic tribe. It was not because he resented the Heda people for raising tigers. Pass.

Although there were only 5000 people under Ashina Kutou's command, a large number of women and children gathered in the tribe. Based on the calculation of more than 30 Turkic households, no less than [-] to [-].

This trip, Gao Cheng made a mistake. Nomadic women and children are different from agricultural women and children. At least they still have a little bit of martial arts. No matter how much combat power they have, they should take weapons and cooperate with the 5000 men under Ashina Kutou's command. It can also be topped. Of course, this is also related to Gao Jishi's practice of not leaving any survivors along the way. Anyway, he is going to die, so why not fight hard.

During this journey out of the fortress, 3 to [-] Turkic women and children were killed along the way, and there were countless livestock. A large number of Turkic herdsmen fled to the tribes at the foot of the Jinshan Mountain, but it was impossible to bring all the livestock with them.

For those livestock that were left behind, Gao Jishi only drove away a small part for food, and slaughtered the rest on the spot, allowing vultures and wolves to devour the carrion.

If this kind of wasteful behavior happened in the Central Plains, discipline Gao Cheng's blood pressure would soar. Of course, this is a grassland, and what wasted was Turkic livestock.

The bad effects of the high-season grass burning will not be seen until winter, but at least for the Turkic women and children, the withdrawal of the Northern Qi army seems to have passed through a catastrophe.

At the same time, in the eastern part of the grassland, the Rouran women and children led by An Luochen also looked forward to the dawn of dawn.

Ever since they heard that Gao Cheng led [-] cavalry from Mount Yanran, Ashina Tumen stopped attacking the remnants of Rouran, but tried to repeat the old trick and ambushed Gao Cheng's reinforcements.

But Gao Cheng was in a hurry to return from the march, but he didn't dare to be careless at all, he always sent sentry cavalry to explore carefully all the dangerous places and places that were easy to ambush, lest he would follow in Anahu's footsteps.

After all, he is easy to set up an ambush and beat birds all day long, but he can't be pecked by birds.

Of course, the large troops move slowly, but the horsemen sent out to spread false news can be regarded as galloping.

Before the Northern Qi army arrived, news about Gao Jishi dispatching troops from Longyou to attack the Turkic lair together with the Heda people had already spread among the Turkic people and the Rouran people.

Arriving from Yanran Mountain, the soldiers were exhausted. Gao Cheng was really not sure that he would have a showdown with the Turkic people who had recharged their batteries by the Lishui River, so he took the method of disturbing the enemy's morale, hoping that the Ashina Tumen would be defeated. Worried about the lair, he was able to remove the siege of the Rouran people.

"Khan, it's time to go back. The Qi people stayed on the grassland not long ago. Their goal is in the south. Now the Rouran people can hardly fight us alone. The grassland is still ours. We have captured more than [-] Rouran women and children this time. , tens of thousands of young men, and seized a large area of ​​pastoral areas, if they do not return, I am afraid that if the people know the details, there will be changes, if there are real changes in the rear, the gains will not be lost."

The confidant's persuasion made Ashina Tumen frowned and remained silent. Gao Cheng was afraid of the [-] Turkic soldiers in his hands, so Ashina Tumen didn't worry about Gao Cheng's follow-up infantry.

Perhaps it is not realistic to destroy Rouran in the First World War, but now that Rouran's main force is destroyed, even if there is a chance to breathe, it is difficult for the people of Qi to save them every year. Gao Cheng will always go south, when he has no time to care about the grassland , is the best time to destroy Rouran.

Ashina Tumen had a plan, and immediately ordered someone to send a letter to the second son Ashina Tengjin, who was in charge of attacking the Rouran settlement in the west of Wangting, and ordered him to return to Jinshan as soon as possible, while he himself sent people to the Northern Qi Army to meet Gao Cheng touch.
