Become a feudal king from today

Chapter 406 Chen Hu’s Lessons

On the bastion, the cold wind from the north blew, which heralded that the next cold winter was coming.

Choosing this time period can severely hit Beidi's logistics and starve them to death in winter.

After making a plan to harass Beidi, Zhongli and Chen Hu led eight thousand cavalry into the grassland in two groups.

Eight thousand cavalry should be no more and no less. If it is too much, the target will be too big, and if it is too small, it will not achieve the tactical effect, so Zhao Xu and Chang Wei decided on this number after discussion.

At the same time, the cavalry also prepared fried noodles. Because they were riding horses, they carried more fried noodles, which was more conducive to them fighting guerrillas, harassing Beidi, and ruining their war plan against Yanzhou this time.

Watching Zhongli and others disappear from the sky, Zhao Xu had a complicated look on his face. This was the real test for Zhongli and Chen Hu. Whether these soldiers could come back this time was still unknown.

Two days later.

In the vast grassland, there were only a few cold stars in the sky, and there was no trace of moonlight. Zi and Zhongli divided their forces into two groups. Chen Hu went out day and night, passed through Yanshan Mountain and finally entered the grassland.

Using binoculars, his scouting horses could always detect the Beidi scouts in advance, and then avoided the Beidi scouts, leading the cavalry to search for the small tribes under the command of the Black Iron King on the grassland.

Each royal tent in Beidi has its own vast pasture, and the royal tent is composed of many small tribes. These tribes are scattered on the grassland to graze. Only in times of war will soldiers leave the tribes and go to the royal tent to gather.

After half a day of searching, the hard work paid off. When night fell, he saw a bonfire not far away through the telescope.

"You guys come with me and see how many people there are in this tribe?" Chen Hu said.

The soldier who was called answered and followed Chen Hu quietly toward the campfire.

It was pitch dark on the grassland at this time, and no one could be seen outside the bonfire.

When Chen Hu and his soldiers approached the Black Iron King's Tribe, no one noticed them.

Around the bonfire, these Beidi people were roasting cattle and sheep, laughing, drinking and eating meat.

"Damn, the life of these Beidi people is really good. They eat meat and drink alcohol every day. They are much happier than me." Chen Hu twitched his nose, the smell of meat made him drool.

"Colonel Lieutenant, look at this camp. There are only more than 200 tents. It seems that this is a small tribe. There are only more than a thousand people in it. What are you waiting for? Just grab the meat and eat it." The soldiers following Chen Hu Said, his name is Xue Gui, he is Chen Hu's personal soldier.

"Hey, this is what I like. Let's go back. Since His Highness asked us to fight guerrillas, we will launch a night attack on him." Chen Hu said.

Xue Gui nodded bloodthirsty. His brother died at the hands of Beidi people, so his hatred for Beidi exceeded anyone else.

After leading the soldiers to figure out the situation, Chen Hu and others secretly turned back.

"Captain, are you going to attack now?" someone asked.

"It's a waste to attack. Of course we have to wait until midnight when they are all asleep. Remember, we won't ride horses this time, but sneak over. When the time comes, we will kill everyone when we enter the tent. No one will be left alive." Chen Hu said.

"Yes." The soldiers said in suppressed voices.

Chen Hu glanced at the bonfire in the distance again, and touched the telescope on his body gently like a baby. This time, he was able to discover this tribe in advance, and it was all because of this telescope that he was not discovered by the tribe.

The stars in the sky are getting brighter and brighter.

In the first half of the night, except for the soldiers keeping watch, most of the soldiers fell into a deep sleep. The bonfire in Beidi was still lit. From time to time, a few Beidi soldiers could be seen lazily sitting by the bonfire and taking a nap.

For them, it is impossible for Dasong's soldiers to go deep into the grassland alone, so the soldiers in the tribe who keep watch at night are often negligent. Their night watch is more to prevent wolves from attacking livestock.

At midnight, Chen Hu was woken up by Xue Gui. Chen Hu rubbed his eyes, looked at the bright light not far away and said: "Wake up all the brothers, guys are ready."

"Yes." Xue Gui immediately slapped the soldiers around him, and when the other soldiers woke up, they slapped the surrounding soldiers one by one. Soon, four thousand soldiers gathered together.

They were clothed in scale armor, and their swords were unsheathed.

"Go!" Chen Hu ordered, and the four thousand people hid their bodies in the tall weeds and approached the Beidi tribe. The one-meter-high grass completely obscured their bodies.

Chen Hu knew that a large-scale cavalry charge would definitely wake up the Beidi people at this time. Although it would catch the Beidi people off guard, most of the Beidi soldiers would definitely take the opportunity to escape.

And by touching it in this way, you can take advantage of the sneak attack and annihilate the tribe as much as possible to avoid exposing your traces.

"You go over there with a thousand people, and you go over there with a thousand people." Chen Hu ordered while lying in the grass.

Four thousand people quickly surrounded Beidi's camp. At this time, the Beidi soldiers who were keeping watch at night were fast asleep and still didn't notice.

At this time, Chen Hu signaled to Xue Gui, who nodded, and tiptoed with ten soldiers towards the Beidi soldiers beside the bonfire.

Looking at the Beidi soldiers who were still sleeping soundly, a sneer appeared at the corner of Xue Gui's mouth. They all drew out their daggers and quickly approached the Beidi soldiers. When they got closer, Xue Gui covered the Beidi soldiers' mouths and severely cut the Beidi soldiers' lips. Throat.

"Uh uh..."

The Beidi soldiers suddenly opened their eyes in horror, but their throats were cut and their mouths were covered, so they could only make unclear sounds. At this time, other soldiers also killed all the Beidi soldiers who were keeping watch.

The pupils of the Beidi soldiers gradually became dilated. At this time, Xue Gui waved in Chen Hu's direction.

"Go!" Chen Hu gave the order at this time. At the same time, the soldiers who saw Xue Gui's sign language in front of the bonfire also took action and touched the tent-like tent.

At this time, the soldiers pursed their lips tightly as they shuttled among the tents, each one assigning their own tents for hunting.

Everything was ready, and almost at the same time, the soldiers rushed into the camp, and screams suddenly rang through the dark night sky.

At this time, Chen Hu also rushed into a tent, which was closest to the bonfire. In the light of the fire, he saw a young Beidi woman lying inside.

At this time, the Beidi woman had been awakened. She looked at Chen Hu in horror and kept shaking her head, looking pitiful.

"How can I start with this!" Chen Hu's hand holding the sword stopped in mid-air, but King Yan's words made him hesitate again.

At this moment, while Chen Hu was distracted, the Beidi woman suddenly picked up a scimitar from the pillow, rolled it on the ground and stabbed Chen Hu in the lower body.

Chen Hu suddenly became alert, and a layer of cold sweat broke out all over his body, but it was too late to dodge. At this moment, a person suddenly rushed over from behind him and kicked the Beidi woman's hand.

The scimitar scratched the scales of the famous Chen Hu's thigh. The metal hit each other, and a spark was particularly dazzling.

Chen Hu no longer hesitated at this time, and the sharp arrow suddenly pierced the Beidi woman's chest.

"Captain, do you want me to leave you a prettier one?" Xue Gui said with a playful smile.

"Go away, leave no one behind, kill them all!" Chen Hu's face turned pale, and his clothes had been soaked in cold sweat.

He finally understood what King Yan said. Dasong and Beidi will either die or I will. A woman's kindness will only kill herself. He gritted his teeth and his eyes became firm.

The Beidi tribe obviously did not expect that Dasong's army would attack in the middle of the night. Many Beidi people in the tents died in their sleep. Half an hour later, the cavalry inspected the tents one by one with torches and confirmed that all the Beidi people were dead. Afterwards, gather in front of the campfire.

"Captain Lieutenant, we have made a fortune. There are tens of thousands of cattle and sheep in this tribe's fence, and there are thousands of horses. How about sending all these things back to the four northern counties?" Xue Gui said at this time.

When they entered the grassland this time, what they did was to burn, kill and loot. This tribe was unlucky and was discovered by them on the first night. He said: "Kill all the cattle and sheep, eat those that can be eaten, burn those that cannot be eaten, and the horses Send a team of people back."

Xue Gui nodded. The horses were easy to drive back quickly, but the cattle and sheep were not easy to drive back. We couldn't waste time on the cattle and sheep this time.

The only choice between the two is the horse.

After the order was passed on, the soldiers immediately rushed into the fence with knives to kill cattle and sheep, and then started to barbecue in front of the bonfire.

Early the next morning, the soldiers had enough to eat and drink and continued on their way, while three soldiers with experience in driving horses drove the horses back along the safe road they came from.

"burn!"

Before leaving, Chen Hu gave an order, and the soldiers threw torches into the tents one after another. Some soldiers also threw dead cattle and sheep in. This left no food for Beidi for the winter.

Sen smiled coldly, and Chen Hu led the soldiers deeper into the grassland.
