Han counter current

However, neither he nor the soldiers of the Xiongnu had any intention of cheering at this time, and many people still had expressions of horror on their faces.

In order to kill Wei Yue's 3000 people, they lost most of their food, grass and livestock. In order to wipe out this enemy, they killed and injured more than [-] people in frontal battles.

If you count the non-combat casualties caused by the fire and trampling of livestock, there may be tens of thousands on the side of the Huns.

In other words, the [-] elite troops led by Wei Yue had seriously injured the Huns.The most important thing is that they lack food, grass and livestock, and they have no food source, so how can they persist in the future.

If the Han army in the city is as brave as these three thousand soldiers, will they still persevere?Many Hun soldiers looked around anxiously, trying to find answers from their companions.

In particular, more than half of Liu Bao's subordinates are slaves rescued by him. These people already have psychological fear of the soldiers under Chen Feng's command. Wei Yue's desperate blow intensified this situation. fear.

"Report, Qi report to Shan Yu, the leader of the Jie tribe sent someone to report, he said that he has a solution to the food crisis, but he wants to renegotiate terms with you."

"What? He has a solution? Well, as long as he can solve this problem, I don't mind talking to him again."

Not long after, a strong man with a strong body and a rough appearance came to Liu Bao's side. The two argued for about a stick of incense, and then Liu Bao finally nodded.

Half an hour later, the Xiongnu cavalry retreated, and the Jie people stepped forward to clean up the battlefield. They took away everything that could be used.

Including arrows, broken weapons, the corpses of war horses, and at the same time, all the corpses of those who died in battle. Liu Bao endured the discomfort in his stomach and watched the behavior of Jie tribe soldiers all the time.

"Hey, a group of beasts. Come here, send an order to go to the camp of the Jie tribe to take over the livestock, and there is no need to transport livestock to their camp in the future.

There are more than 2 soldiers of the Jie people. In this way, I can save 4 people's food, grass and livestock, which is enough to meet the situation on my side. "

Watching the leader of the Jie tribe lead his subordinates to leave, Liu Bao couldn't help cursing. The leader of the Jie tribe is willing to donate all the cattle and sheep in his hand, and he will not ask Liu Bao to provide livestock in the future. The premise is that after taking Meiji City, They will take half of the spoils.

In order to win, Liu Bao agreed to them. Many people will be very puzzled. If there are more than [-] soldiers of the Jie tribe, what would they eat if they don't have livestock?

But Liu Bao knew that when those Jie soldiers took away the corpses and severed limbs from the battlefield, he knew why in his heart.

Jiehu, who lived in the extreme east of the grassland at first, later clashed with the Xiongnu and Xianbei tribes due to migration. In order to survive, they fought many times.

But in the end, the brave Jiehu was encircled and suppressed by all the Xiongnu and Xianbei tribes, and eventually became a slave of the Xiongnu Shanyu. This race was stigmatized as a slave.

It stands to reason that very few such tribes would be hated by all the other tribes on the grassland, but Liu Bao believes that if history repeats itself, the Jie tribe will still become the public enemy of the grassland.

"Bastards, damn it, how could the Sirius God tolerate such a group of beasts living on the grassland, and if it wasn't for defeating Chen Feng, how could I be with this group of beasts."

Liu Bao cursed people here, because he knew that from today onwards, the food for these Jie tribe soldiers would become the corpses of all the war dead. That is to say, all the Jie tribe will eat human flesh to survive .

Obviously, Liu Bao knew about the traditions and customs of the Jie people. Back then, the Jie people became public enemies of the grassland because they were too cruel and inhumane.

Even, this custom of the Jie people has affected some Xianbei tribes, causing some Xianbei tribes to take this measure when food and grass are insufficient.

Liu Bao thinks he is not a good person, but compared with the Jie people, he feels that he is at least a human being.

Chapter 670: Grassland War 2

On the grassland north of Bingzhou, Gongsun Xu led 1 elite troops to accelerate forward. In order to rescue Meiji, he could only mobilize these [-] people in a short time.

"Report, General Qi, the spies in front came to report, and found the traces of General Zhang Yan's troops, less than [-] miles away from here."

"Zhang Yan? You bastard, Meiji was attacked. As the chief general of the camp in the east of Hetao, he didn't lead his subordinates and slaves to fight back, but ran here instead.

Come on, pass the order down, speed up, and surround this group of people directly. If Zhang Yan really ran away, I will kill him today. "

Those who didn't know, thought that the relationship between Gongsun Xu and Zhang Yan was very bad, but those who knew, knew that Zhang Yan was Gongsun Xu's father-in-law.

An hour later, the more than [-] elite under Gongsun Xu's command were divided into four groups, and they arrived at the four sides of Zhang Yan's camp.

Knowing that it was Gongsun Xu who led the army, Zhang Yan hurriedly led hundreds of soldiers out to meet him. Putting on this armor, Zhang Yan had to carry out the military orders. Gongsun Xu's position was higher than his, so he had no reason to show his qualifications.

"Subordinate Zhang Yan, I have met General Zhendong, but I don't know General..."

"That's enough, Zhang Yan, let me ask you, the enemy army went south and Meiji was attacked, what are you doing for food? You have [-] elites and [-] slaves in your hands. Instead of going to rescue Meiji, you ran here .

Could it be that you think that because you are old and well-connected, you can ignore military law and run away?If you can't give me an explanation today, don't blame me for being ruthless. "

"Ah, here, General, General Mingjian, don't you know who your subordinates are? I did this for the sake of my lord's great cause.

The enemy army came south and came suddenly. Guan Hai's camp was attacked. I had no choice but to lead my subordinates to escort the slaves away.

General, you may not know that Liu Bao contacted many slaves in advance, and Guan Hai was defeated only by the enemy's attack and the slave's rebellion.

Now, that guy doesn't know if he is alive or dead. After taking down the northern camp, most of the slaves surrendered to the enemy, adding tens of thousands of soldiers to the enemy.

If I don't leave early, I'm afraid I will follow in Guan Hai's footsteps.General, please think about it, if I am defeated again, what will these slaves think? The enemy army will have tens of thousands more soldiers and horses. "

Zhang Yan knew his son-in-law's temper, so he was not joking when he talked about military law.Zhang Yan knew better that in the heart of his son-in-law, besides his family and his own sister, only the lord could persuade him.

In addition, even if it is his father-in-law, it is still a dead end if he is angered.Therefore, Zhang Yan must explain clearly, otherwise he will really end up decapitated.

"You mean, among the slaves, some became the internal agents of the enemy army?"

"Exactly, my subordinates are sure that among the [-] slaves, more than [-] are Huns. The leader of the enemy army is Liu Bao. Many Hun slaves think that it is the Sirius God who came to rescue them.

If encountering the soldiers reported by Liu, these slaves would definitely rebel first. I only had [-] soldiers at the time, and it was very difficult to resist the enemy, not to mention guarding the slaves. Guan Hai suffered from this. "

"It makes sense, but if you dare not rescue Meiji, I will report this matter to the lord. As for the slaves, we really need to find a way to solve it."

Gongsun Xu's eyes narrowed. Zhang Yan could see murderous intent from his son-in-law's expression. The head of the Gongsun family seemed to be thinking about something important.

"Come here, pass my order and tell those slaves that Liu Bao will go south and the Xiongnu will rise again. My lord Chen Feng has mercy on the Xiongnu. Anyone among them who is willing to support Liu Bao can leave now."

"Ah, general, this,,,,,,"

All the generals around were dumbfounded when they heard this, Zhang Yan was even more so. The children of the Gongsun family were all very anxious at this moment.

Just based on what Gongsun Xu said just now, if it reaches Chen Feng's ears in the future, or is exaggerated by people with ulterior motives, then Gongsun Xu will definitely die.

"My order is, don't delay. In addition, pass on the order to cook cattle and slaughter sheep, set up a pot to boil water, and my soldiers should also have a warm meal. Quick,,,,,,"

Gongsun Xu is the chief general. Here, he has supreme authority. Since he gave the order, there is no reason for others not to follow it.

Soon, when the slaves heard the news, most of them became restless, especially those Hun slaves, who were preparing to leave the camp in groups of three or four.

At the beginning, some people worried that Gongsun Xu was cheating, but when the No. 1 Hun slave left the camp safely, others couldn't bear it anymore.

Soon, more slaves ran out one after another, but Gongsun Xu just asked his subordinates and Zhang Yan's soldiers to eat meat and soup, as if he didn't care about those slaves at all.

Half an hour later, Gongsun Xu was sitting on the ground with his eyes closed, and his subordinates were all full of food and drinks, and they were all cleaning their weapons.

"General Qi, about 3 slaves escaped, and the remaining [-] remained in the camp."

"After running so much, it's no wonder that Liu Bao still has some appeal. Go and drive the rest of the slaves here. If I have something to say, slaughter another thousand sheep for me and cook them in the pot."

After a while, the remaining [-] slaves were driven to Gongsun Xu's side. Dozens of large iron pots stood in front of them, and the hot aroma attracted the attention of all the slaves.
