Small Landlords of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 125. The Hunting Begins
"Can my lord do this?"

Both Huang Zhong and Lu Xun had doubts, so Huang Zhong led Qingqi to pursue, while Lu Xun used infantry to escort the grain and grass, obviously being led by Merklar.

"You don't need to ask, this time I want to let Merkel know that anyone who offends me, Wang Hao, will end well..."

Acting according to the plan, Meklar's backup came from Dayuezhi, rounding up the remnants of Hader and Modosa tribes, totaling more than 2 soldiers and horses, and the camel cavalry alone exceeded [-].

The reinforcements once again brought the crude oil bomb designated by Meklar, and Meklar led the camel cavalry out of the desert to attack the camp of the jade mine.

Huang Zhong: "Merklar dog thief, this time I want you to die without a place to bury you..."

Huang Zhong, who was stationed in the camp, led the troops to counterattack, and at the same time released the vulture and falcon to deliver a letter to Wang Hao, and he took three thousand Qingqi to chase Merkel.

Merkel: "Haha, you have said this sentence dozens of times, but it's just children farting, children withdraw..."

Merklar burned a large piece of miner machinery with crude oil bombs, and led Qubu away laughing wildly. For Huang Zhong who was chasing after him, Merklar didn't pay attention at all. Entering the desert becomes Merklar's home field.

General: "General, the enemy has entered the desert. Should we..."

Huang Zhong: "Chasing, slow down and don't act too hastily. General Lu Xun will escort us with food and grass soon..."

The general: "But..."

Huang Zhong: "No but, this is a military order!"

Under Huang Zhong's order, Sanqian Qingqi once again stepped into the desert, the place of death. The morale of the three armies has been low ever since they stepped into the desert. Once there is a disturbance, the soldiers are always in panic.

Huang Zhong pursued for most of the day and went deep into tens of miles. Except for the wind and sand in the sky, Merklar had disappeared, and the sky heard the cry of eagles. Lu Xun escorted food and grass to catch up with Huang Zhong.

"Bah... how can this water be so salty..."

"It won't be the transportation team, come here with seawater..."

"No way, if there is no clear water in the depths of this desert, there is no need for enemies..."

After Huang Zhong and Lu Xun had a round, Lu Xun asked the pawns to take out the fresh water, which was mixed with a small amount of seawater according to Wang Hao's instructions, but it wasn't very salty, so it was barely drinkable.

Huang Zhong: "Where is my lord?"

Lu Xun: "My lord and Hu Che'er led Qubu away before sunset."

Huang Zhong: "Do you want to chase after tomorrow?"

Lu Xun: "No need, my lord let us set up camp on the spot and wait..."

Merkel in the depths of the desert was also surprised why Huang Zhong stopped this time. This place is still tens of kilometers away from his ambush point.

Harder: "Prince, the Han army is a little strange this time!"

Modosa: "How long can they dance with these thousands of people alone?"

Meklar: "The enemy's camp has already been built, and the crossbow arrows are very powerful, so it is not suitable for encirclement and suppression in the short term, but you can let Qubu harass the opponent and consume the opponent's fresh water resources as much as possible!"

Seeing that Huang Zhong did not catch up again, Merklar set up a camp in the depths of the desert. There was neither water source nor prey. This act of sending to death made Merklar dare not act rashly.

Harder and Modosa led Qubu to find Merklar. They also wanted to launch a general attack immediately to strangle Huang Zhong and Lu Xun here, but they were very afraid of Yuanrong crossbows and ballistas, and camel cavalry could not stop the establishment of crossbows.

Huang Zhong: "My lord, are you sure that the opponent's number is complete?"

Wang Hao: "Merklar is just a prince, not a prince with real power. The [-] soldiers and horses are already the limit he can mobilize!"

Lu Xun: "Thanks to the presence of the lord, otherwise the soldiers would have been panic-stricken by Merklar's repeated surprise attacks!"

Wang Hao, Lu Xun and others were sitting in the camp of the Chinese army. Apart from a small amount of water, the grain and grass escorted by Lu Xun were all weapons such as bows, crossbows and arrows, and the grain and grass were all sent by Wang Hao.

Wang Hao was just waiting, waiting for Merklar to gather all his soldiers and horses. There were [-] soldiers in the camp, and Wang Hao could still support them with the space supply. Wang Hao extracted all the banana trees.

Soldiers can use banana leaves to shade the sun, war horses have banana trees, and will not be exposed to the scorching sun of the desert to death. Adding a little sea water blended with clean water can supplement other nutrients needed by the human body.

Watermelons, apples, pears, cucumbers, tomatoes, and other vegetables and fruits, Wang Hao can supply to the soldiers in unlimited quantities. In addition to lacking money for clean water to bathe, the soldiers also suddenly felt that the beast of the desert did not seem so terrible.

And Meklar and the others are waiting, waiting for the moment when Huang Zhong's food and grass are exhausted and they leave the desert. Just consume war equipment and supplies.

Half a month has passed, and Huang Zhong's crossbow arrows are shooting less and less, and Merkel's food and grass are almost exhausted, but Huang Zhong's camp does not seem to be running out of food and grass, and Merkel is starting to worry .

Harder: "The Han army finally couldn't take it anymore, they started to break out of camp..."

Meklar: "Tell Modosa, this rest assured charge, I will kill all the 5000 Han troops. I want to see how many [-] soldiers and horses of the Han army are enough for Meklar to kill... "

In the evening, when the weather gradually cooled down, Wang Hao ordered the three thousand Qingqi to prepare for departure. They were not planning to go home, but to go out to strangle the Da Yue clan's army. The soldiers fed the horses and installed the last batch of crossbow arrows. It depends on this battle.

After nightfall, Wang Hao secretly left the camp under the protection of Hu Che'er, and went to the rear of Merklar in the west, and did not bypass Merklar's army until dawn.

Wang Hao: "Hu Che'er, do you remember when I was in Lujiang County..."

Hu Che'er: "My lord is going to cast a spell to release the crocodile?"

Wang Hao: "Of course it can't be a crocodile, but there is an animal that likes this kind of desert sand very much, so let's start hunting!"

Spotted Hyena!
Wang Hao worked hard to raise them for nearly a month, and spent 70 gold coins to buy feed, plus the previous inventory, to accumulate more than 3 spotted hyenas. This is the big meal Wang Hao prepared for Merklar.

"What the hell is this?"

"There are wild dogs in the camp..."

"Don't bite me..."

"Hurry up and save the camel, without the camel we will all die in the desert..."

"Hard, you traitor, don't run away..."

Meklar's army camps were all surrounded by camels, and soldiers and supplies were in the middle. When the spotted hyena charged for the first time, it frightened the camels and fled everywhere. Only a few cavalrymen boarded the camels.

Harder led Quebe to watch the night, saw the hyena group attacking the camp, and even led Quebe to escape alone. After Merklar woke up, the whole camp had become a paradise for spotted hyenas.

The disadvantage of releasing spotted hyenas on a large scale is that after the war, some hyenas may remain in the desert, and these Wang Hao can no longer take back into the space, because Wang Hao does not have so much mental power.

Once the camel was killed by spotted hyenas, even if Wang Hao didn't kill Meklar and the others, they wouldn't be able to go back to Da Yuezhi with their little food and grass. Facing the surprise attack of [-] spotted hyenas, they would definitely die this time.

Huang Zhong heard the chaotic roar of the enemy army, and ordered the soldiers to guard all corners of the camp, no matter whether it was the spotted hyena or the enemy army, they could not let them intrude. After all, the spotted hyena didn't know Huang Zhong and others.

After dawn, Wang Hao and Hu Che'er returned to the camp. Merkel survived under the protection of the guards. There were only a few thousand people left in the [-] army. Wang Hao's [-] hyenas were almost dead, and those who survived were also chasing the camel cavalry. And went.

Huang Zhong: "The hunt has begun!"

Lu Xun: "Yes, the hunt has begun, it's time to avenge the dead soldiers!"

After the spotted hyena group dispersed, three thousand Qingqi rushed to the terrified Merklar Qubu. Merklar's soldiers lost their camels, so how could they not be able to outrun the horses?

When fighting the hyena group, they had exhausted all available weapons, and the unarmed Da Yueshi soldiers, like lambs to be slaughtered, were waiting for the butcher's knife of Huang Zhong's three thousand Qingqi.

Merkel was captured alive by Huang Zhong. After returning to the Yuetai area, Ling Chi was waiting for him to be skinned alive. Modosa was trampled to death by Qingqi charging horses because he was bitten by a spotted hyena on his thigh. Only Hader escaped from the beginning. up.

"Damn Hanjun, damn wild dogs, who can tell me where these wild dogs come from?"

Harder was very angry now, he led three hundred camel cavalry to break through in a hurry, and only seventy or eighty cavalry were able to break out of the hyena group.

Due to the sudden lack of preparation for the incident, the camel cavalry did not carry any food and grass, so Hader could only reluctantly let the soldiers slaughter the camels for meat.

"Damn... just me... I..."

Harder didn't expect that because the smell of blood attracted the hyena group again, Harder was finally killed by spotted hyenas, and those soldiers didn't survive, only a few camels escaped to heaven.

Wang Hao's scheme this time was generally very successful, but it also brought a lot of trouble to the Vietnam-Thailand area, that is, those spotted hyenas lost in the desert. Thousands of spotted hyenas were divided into dozens of groups, and they often wandered in Vietnam. border of Thailand.

Later, Gan Ning, who was stationed again, often sent soldiers to hunt spotted hyenas. Apart from this, there was also a good thing, that is, the Great Yue clan was isolated from the desert.

Because of the existence of the hyena herd, no matter how much the Da Yuezhi sent their soldiers to cross the desert, they did not know how many spotted hyenas were hidden deep in the desert.
