It can be said that the army of barbarians went south with the best of their best. Although all the tribes left troops in their tribes, before sending troops, all the tribes felt that going south to the Central Plains was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If one more soldier was sent, they might be able to bring back more troops. A loot.

They didn't actually think that the war would be delayed for so long. For most barbarians, going south to the Central Plains was like a rich man without a nursing home, leaving only two weak children in his home. Guarding the gate, if the strong barbarians came to kill them, it would be easy to catch them. Taking advantage of the emptiness of the Qin people's defense, they could make a fortune and make a fortune.

Almost all tribes have this idea, and few people can think of the difficulties they are currently encountering in advance.

It was precisely because the troops were dispatched hastily without adequate preparations that all the tribes brought out their elites in order to have more strength when looting.

And this just leads to the emptiness of the grassland.

The so-called emptiness, of course, does not mean that there are no people on the grassland, but that the fighting forces on the grassland are extremely empty.

The grassland is not a place rich in resources. Although the tribes have herds of cattle and sheep, and there are many young and strong, their fighting power is not as strong as imagined.

Barbarian iron cavalry is well-known, but there are not as many war horses that can be used by various tribes to charge into battle. The most important thing is that there is a shortage of iron weapons on the grassland. Combat weapons such as spears and swords are very rare. It is very scarce on the grasslands. Although the barbarians are strong and tall, they are brave and fierce, but without weapons to equip them, their combat effectiveness is naturally greatly reduced.

With the soldiers pointing south, the tribes are naturally equipped with elite soldiers and horses, and seventy-eight percent of the weapons and equipment of the tribes are also taken away. Under the situation of this big alliance, of course, the tribes have reached a tacit understanding. In order to stop the internal fighting, the tribes are not worried that the backyard will be harassed during the expedition. If any tribe takes advantage of this time to wreak havoc in the backyard, it will inevitably become the common enemy of all tribes on the grassland.

They came here excitedly, wanting to take advantage of the emptiness in Hexi to make a fortune, but they seemed to forget that when their soldiers went out to fight, the lair behind them had also become empty.

At this time, hearing the bad news brought by Te Te's fracture, many people were already terrified, and a few of them wished to lead their troops back immediately.

Most of the people present knew that the Northwest Army had a cavalry regiment with more than [-] troops. This cavalry regiment was well equipped and capable of fighting. Naturally, the battle of Qiufengyuan had already spread, and everyone present knew it very well. The failure of the Battle of Qiufengyuan was certainly due to other factors, such as the withdrawal of troops by An Lei and others, but the most important reason was the strength of the northwest cavalry.

If the battle of Qiufengyuan could not give them too direct feelings, then the thousands of troops on Shuchitai went out to search for food, but ended up with the whole army wiped out. This undoubtedly proved the ruthlessness and powerful combat effectiveness of the northwest cavalry.

Of course the barbarian cavalry would not be afraid of a head-on confrontation with the northwest cavalry, but now the northwest cavalry did not charge forward to face-to-face confrontation.

"Teguzhe, your news is correct?" A general with a rather fiery temper stepped forward and grabbed Teguzhe's chest, "Northwestern cavalry went to the grassland?"

Te Guzhe was extremely tired, but he was a little annoyed at being grabbed by the general at this time. He is a member of the Tushi Khan tribe, so naturally he would not pay attention to the generals of other tribes, so he raised his hand and pushed them away forcefully, annoyed He said: "You heard what I said, so why bother to ask? The northwest cavalry is not in their camp, so they naturally went to the grassland."

Before Te Guzhe came in, all the generals were elated because Ibrahimovic came up with a way to dig a tunnel for a sneak attack, but now they all looked ugly.

After a while of silence, I saw a person suddenly turn around and go out of the tent, Tu Shihan said in a deep voice, "Where are you going?"

"Naturally, go back to the grassland." The man didn't turn his head back. "The Northwest cavalry has already killed the grassland. Do we have to wait here? I'm afraid our tribe has been ransacked by the Northwest cavalry...!"

As soon as this person said that, several people immediately turned around and left.

At this time, they heard a roar, and then heard a "click", everyone was startled, looked over, but saw that Tu Shi Khan had drawn out his scimitar, and had already chopped down the table in front of him. into two halves.

Holding a saber in his hand, Tu Shi Khan was furious and had a stern look on his face. After all, he was the most powerful tribal leader on the grassland. Seeing this situation, the others also felt chills in their hearts.

"Before we elected the leader, everyone present has made an oath that everyone must obey the command of the commander before the city of Wuping is taken down." Tushi Khan said coldly: "Since this Khan has been elected as the commander by you, then you must Act according to the oath. Without the order of the Khan, whoever mobilizes the troops and horses of the headquarters without authorization will be an enemy of the Khan, and the Khan will regard him as an enemy for life."

Tu Shi Khan's words were decisive, but powerful. Although many people present were anxious when they thought of the northwest cavalry rushing on the grassland, they were still quite afraid of Tu Shi Khan who was furious.

The barbarian general who had already walked to the tent door stopped immediately, not daring to go out easily.

Tushi Khan's words were full of direct threats, telling him that once he leaves, he will wait until he becomes an enemy of Tushi Khan. Now that the barbarian army is approaching the city, it may not be possible to meet with swordsmen, but once he really breaks face with Tushi Khan, he will return. After arriving on the grassland, Tushi Khan will definitely take revenge. The Tushi Khan tribe has a large number of people and horses, and over the years, they have also accumulated a large number of weapons and equipment. This time, they have brought [-] cavalry. With Shi Khan's strength, it is not difficult to gather [-] cavalry from all the soldiers of his own clan, but there are very few barbarian tribes that can have [-] cavalry.

There was silence in the big tent, and the atmosphere was extremely suppressed. After a while, Tushi Khan finally said: "Ben Khan knows that you are worried about your tribe, but if the northwest cavalry really went to the grassland, it would be too late for us to return now." , and once they returned to the army, they fell into the trap of the Northwest Army."

The generals looked at each other, and finally someone said: "Should we just sit idly by? Even if we take down Wuping Prefecture, once the clan is slaughtered, what's the use of getting more spoils?"

Tushi Khan didn't answer, but instead asked, "When did Shuchitai be besieged and killed?"

"It's been more than ten days."

"If Ben Khan's guess is correct, Chu Huan is going to send troops. He has sent cavalry to the grassland more than ten days ago. It is too late for us to return now." Tu Shi Khan sneered: "Ben Khan predicts that they will not be able to stay too long in the grassland." For a long time, the grassland is vast and boundless. People in the Northwest have never been to the grassland. They don't know where our tribe is at all. They just swim around in the grassland. A tribe."

Everyone looked at each other and felt that what Tushi Khan said was really a fluke.

The Mobei grassland is indeed vast and boundless, and the tribes are scattered all over the grassland, dots and dots. If you walk on foot, people who know nothing about the grassland may not be able to see them in the grassland for ten days and a half months. to a person.

However, the people from the northwest dispatched cavalry. The cavalry's mobility is so strong that it is clear to the barbarians who have lived on horseback since they were young. The tribe above, that is really whimsical.

It's just that at this time, everyone looked dignified and didn't speak.

"They have tens of thousands of cavalry, and they have to eat and drink every day. There is not so much food for them in the grassland." Tushi Khan sneered, "If we withdraw our troops now, we may not be able to surround them immediately in the grassland, but we All the sacrifices will be in vain. The countless prairie warriors who died in the city will be in vain." He took a step forward and said sharply, "You all want to give up now?"

After a while of silence, someone finally asked, "Tush Khan, what do you think we should do?"

"Wuping Prefecture must be captured." Tushi Khan's eyes were firm, "As far as the Northwest Army...!" He clenched his fists violently, "They don't take us seriously and have repeatedly provoked us. Now We even sent cavalry to attack our grasslands, we must teach them a lesson and let them know how powerful we are."

Ibrahimovic, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "Tush Khan, the Northwest Army's ability to win consecutive battles depends on their cavalry. It is precisely because they have strong cavalry that they win frequently. Now their cavalry has gone to the grassland. , the rest are just infantry...!" His eyes sparkled, "Maybe this is a good opportunity."

Tu Shi Khan had obviously noticed this, nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Chu Huan sent cavalry to the grassland, hoping that we would withdraw to help, but their strength was greatly reduced because of this. In this case, why don't we attack them and force us to attack them?" Can the cavalry on the grassland come back to rescue? The southern barbarians are not our opponents, and now without the cavalry, they are even more vulnerable. Isn't this our best chance?"

The generals understood immediately, and someone immediately asked, "Tush Khan, do you want to say that we... attack the Northwest Army while the Northwest Cavalry is away?"

"When we go south this time, we also want to let the southern barbarians know how powerful we are." Tushi Khan clenched his fist and said with a sneer, "We already know the camp of the Northwest Army. They must think that we will panic when they hear the news that the grassland has been attacked. We returned to the grassland at a loss, but we didn't do what he wanted, we were going to catch them off guard, if at this time, we sent troops to fight the Northwest Army, what do you think would happen?"

Before the others could speak, Ibrahimovic said excitedly: "If we go to fight the Northwest Army at this time, they will definitely not expect it. And they only have infantry left. My prairie cavalry suddenly appeared and killed their barracks by surprise. Not an opponent."

Tushi Khan said: "That's right, they thought that our grassland warriors would retreat, but we would only attack..., Ben Khan sent a troop to kill them all of a sudden, before they could react. A sudden attack, they will definitely be killed, and when they are wiped out, once the northwest cavalry wandering in the grassland get the news, they will definitely rush back to rescue them, but when they come back, Chu Huan's head may have already been hung on the ground. On our sabers...!"

Ibrahimovic said loudly: "As far as I know, Chu Huan also has a lot of gold and silver treasures in his hands. As long as Chu Huan is eliminated, we can continue to attack west after we take down Wuping Prefecture. The spoils there are even more than Wuping Prefecture. .”

Ibrahimovic was defeated in Qiufengyuan, and the troops and horses in the headquarters suffered a lot. Although he hated An Lei, he also hated the Northwest Army. The best way to get rid of this imprint of shame, of course, is to defeat the enemy who once humiliated him.

Knowing that Chu Huan's cavalry regiment had gone to the grassland, Ibrahimovic felt that the opportunity had come. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. In his opinion, the Northwest Army without cavalry could not be the opponent of barbarian cavalry. With blood rolling up and down, he turned to Tushi Khan and said, "Tushi Khan, I am willing to lead the troops to raid the Northwest Barracks, and take off Chu Huan's head and present it to Tushi Khan. I hope Tushi Khan will agree."

Recently, Ibrahimovic has been very respectful and obedient to Tushi Khan, and Tushi Khan admired him very much. Seeing him take the initiative to invite Ying, he nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, you and the Northwest Army Having fought against them and knowing them well, Ben Khan believes that you will use Chu Huan's head to wash away the shame of your defeat by him. But you still have to be more careful, the Central Plains people are full of tricks, don't underestimate the enemy."

When Ibrahimovic heard Tushi Khan's answer, he was overjoyed and said excitedly, "Khan, don't worry, I will definitely come back with Chu Huan's head before Wuping Prefecture falls."

Tushi Khan was even more delighted to hear him call himself "Great Khan", patted Ibrahimovic on the shoulder, and said, "Then you will compare with Ben Khan to see if you get back Chu Huan's head first or Ben Khan." Khan took off the head of the Qin emperor first."

The barbarians did what they said, and started to prepare that day. The next morning, it was snowing heavily again, but this did not affect the plan of the barbarians to send troops.

Originally entering the Central Plains, it was the critical time to attack the city. It is not a good thing to divide the troops at this time, but Chu Huan sent cavalry to attack the grassland, which made the barbarians angry. Although Tushi Khan suppressed everyone with power, he also knew In order to appease the barbarians, they must have a place to vent their fire, and attacking Chu Huan, the instigator, is of course the best way.

Moreover, although Yiman lost troops and lost generals because of the attack on Wuping Fucheng, his force is still very large. Even if [-] to [-] cavalry were taken to attack Chu Huan from the west, the remaining soldiers and horses attacking the city still have an absolute upper hand.

The barbarians will take revenge if they have a grudge, and the revenge will not be overnight. Early the next morning, Tushi Khan dispatched [-] barbarian cavalry to Ivan, ordering him to attack Chu Huan in the west.

In Tushi Khan's view, the heavy snowfall was not a bad thing, but just right. Although the fighting power of [-] cavalry was amazing, Tushi Khan hoped that this cavalry could kill Chu Huan's Northwest Army by surprise. To resolve the battle as quickly as possible, and to advance troops under the cover of heavy snow, I am afraid that the Northwest Army would never have thought of it anyway.
