Zhi Xuan

After the battle, Zuwu began to clean up the battlefield.

The fire had already been extinguished, the scorched giant tree collapsed, and a large cloud of black smoke rose from the fracture.

There were as many as a hundred soldiers from the Nanyou Kingdom who rushed out of the dense forest, except for the ones left deliberately alive, all of them were killed by the cavalry swords.All of them were separated from their bodies and heads, and some of them were cut to pieces. The death conditions were horrific.

Soldiers in leather armor shuttled across the battlefield, their restrained weapons stacked together.The intact ones were sent to the servants, and the damaged ones were discarded directly.

Lin Zu was wearing leather armor, most of which were cut by sharp long knives, and the damage was too large to be worth repairing.The pawns lost interest at one glance.

Shanman and Tengman huddled together, watching Bei'an soldiers clean up the battlefield.Seeing them burning the corpse and the leather armor together, they were all shocked and their hearts were bleeding.

They all dream of owning a piece of leather armor, and it doesn't matter if it breaks.The soldiers of Bei'an State dismissed it, and directly rejected the broken ones, and even burned them on the spot.

Are the armies of the northern vassals so rich?

It's so inhuman, it's outrageous!

Two years ago, the Bei'an army was not like this.In addition to soldiers and elite soldiers, the entire army is also careful planning.After a battle, try to recycle what can be recycled. As long as it is still usable, weapons and leather armor must not be wasted.

The reason for this is not that there is no money in the army, nor that the clans are not willing to part with it, but that it is related to armor and weapons. In many cases, there is nowhere to buy gold silk.

Clans with mines and artisans mostly cherish their own brooms.Low productivity forces them to be stingy.Armed fiefdoms are still insufficient, how to sell them to the outside world.

The same is true between countries.

Everything else can be bought and sold, except armor and weapons.

The clans have a steelyard in their hearts, and they know where the boundaries are, and they will never cross them easily unless they have to.

Bei'an is a big country, and its strength is among the best among the northern princes.It's a pity that no matter how strong the country is, and no matter how good the Chinese people are at fighting, they still cannot get rid of the constraints of conditions and rules.

The big clans are doing well, but many small clans are living a tight life. Most of their subordinates don't have a complete set of armors, their weapons are broken and repaired, and their swords are full of gaps and they are reluctant to throw them away.

The clans are used to such days.If there is no comparison, naturally it will not feel difficult.

Unexpectedly, Zhixuan Hengkong was born, the young Xi Yuanhou possessed all kinds of whimsical ideas, and was even more capable of turning ideas into reality.Not only did he try to arm the army by himself, but he also took the Xiyuan clan to stride forward together, galloping on a golden road.

When other countries were limited to their own one-acre land, Zhixuan had already set his sights far away, patrolling the north, and encompassing a wider world.

Under his leadership, Xiyuan Kingdom developed northward, and the clans suddenly became rich.When the ore is sufficient, the craftsman's technology improves rapidly, and the smelted metal is used to make weapons and armor, which is more than enough to equip the three armies.

To this day, the new army of the Xiyuan Kingdom has all changed their costumes, and the soldiers of the three armies are equipped with iron armor and iron swords.The armor and weapons of the military standard were distributed to the soldiers, and the swords and leather armors for the soldiers were given to the servants.

For other countries, encountering such an army is simply a nightmare.

In this regard, Dongliang, who experienced a disastrous defeat not long ago, can speak out from his own experience.

Meeting soldiers from the Nishihara Kingdom who are armed to the teeth is like meeting a hedgehog with steel needles all over its body.Bows and arrows can't shoot through, and swords can't cut through. If the opposite side cuts you with a knife, you will stop cooking on the spot.

According to Zhixuan's words, this is the sorrow of the squishy shooter.

After a battle was fought, Wu, a soldier of the Dongliang Kingdom who was lucky enough to survive, began to doubt his life. When he met such an enemy, how could he win.

The strength of Xiyuan Kingdom is obvious to all, and the equipment of the army is also eye-catching.

The Bei'an Guo clan is eager to see, but they also understand the boundaries.Without the conditions to make Xi Yuanhou's heart flutter, the most he can do is just take a look, and buying one is as difficult as climbing the sky.

Zhao Hao is an exception.

Since they formed a marriage alliance with Zhixuan, the salaries of Zhao's soldiers and soldiers have increased linearly, leather armor has been replaced by bronze armor, and some of them can wear iron armor.The sword has become sharper, trying it on the grassland, and encountering any opponent is like cutting melons and vegetables.

Of course, all of this comes at a price.

Zhixuan doesn't mind helping Zhao Hao's armed forces to improve their combat effectiveness, but what should be given must be given.

According to Xi Yuanhou's request, the price must be paid in full.It is impossible to reduce the price, let alone discount.Brothers settle accounts clearly, no matter how close the relationship between the two is, no exception can be made.

Zhao Hao had no objection to this, nor any dissatisfaction.He didn't have much hope for the purchase of iron armor and iron sword.I don't want Zhi Xuan to agree to sell, but there is only a limit on the number of transactions, and it is agreed in advance that they cannot be transferred to others.

As for the loss on the battlefield, it is completely impossible.

Looking at the world, counting the vassal states one by one, there are very few troops that can defeat Zhao Hao, almost none.After Zhao Di's army changed clothes, it was even more difficult to defeat him.To snatch weapons from him is pure fantasy and daydream.

Same as the previous transaction, Zhixuan was business-like, and the price he offered was not polite at all.

Zhao Hao agreed very readily, without any reluctance, and behaved like a pie in the sky.

In order to express his joy, Gongzi Hao took it upon himself to let Zhixuan experience for three consecutive days what it means to warm a tent in the spring night, what it means to be a concubine who harms the country, and what it means for a king not to go to court early.

In addition to the iron armor and iron sword, Zhao Hao also purchased a large number of equipment from Zhi Xuan, and seconded craftsmen with him at a very high price to smelt copper ore in the grassland to make weapons.

Relying on Gongzi Hao, before sending his troops south, the three armies of the Bei'an Kingdom changed their outfits one after another, and their combat effectiveness increased accordingly.

Because they were trapped by the river for many days and could not move forward, the whole army held their breath.Lin Zuwu happened to hit the muzzle of the gun, and became the first drop of blood from Zhao's cavalry.

The scale of the battle was not large, and with the crushing of one party, it ended quite quickly.

After the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield, they had time to look at the vine man and mountain man huddled together.

The Bei'an army is used to fighting against Di Rong, and they are well aware of the behavior patterns of the grassland tribes.It is the first time to arrest Nanban.

Although there were preparations before, and the strict layout was set up in the camp, the whole army still tensed up against the unknown enemy, preparing for a fierce battle.

Never expected that the barbarian would be so weak, beyond imagination.

The leading team was approaching, looking up and down at the barbarian squatting on the ground. Compared with Di Rong in the north, he quickly saw the difference.

Nanman lived in the forest for a long time, fighting with wild beasts, and had to deal with the pursuit of the princes. Both men and women were physically strong.Although he is not tall, his whole body is covered with muscles, especially the muscles on his upper arms and thighs.

In the wet and cold winter, men, women and children are only wrapped in animal skins and vine leaves, most of them bare their arms and bare feet.

Probably for the convenience of fighting, the strong tribesmen tore off their shirts, bare their chests, and could clearly see the gorgeous patterns carved on their bodies.

As with men, so with women.

In this regard, Bei'an Guozu Wu was not surprised.

Establishing a family and ruling power is not limited to men and women, only strong and weak.Regardless of the clan, countryman or common people, female patriarchs are not uncommon.If a woman is in charge, there are restrictions on men's clothing, but women have no scruples.

The rules of the Nanman are different from those of the vassal states, but it can also be seen that strength is respected.Women who can fight are tied with men, and some even beat each other by a head.

The team was sizing up the barbarians and did not confiscate their weapons, not at all worried that they would violently injure others.

I didn't run away when no one was guarding me before, and I could see that my courage was exhausted.His guts were all frightened, how could he struggle to resist.A similar situation happened when Rong Di was captured, but now it is on Nanman, there is no difference.

As the team was thinking, Tengman and Shanman squatted on the ground obediently, not to mention grabbing their weapons, not even daring to raise their heads.

The soldiers who went to the camp to ask for instructions hurried back and conveyed the order of Gongzi Hao to the team.

"My son said, one person will lead the way, the rest will serve as slaves, and those who don't follow will be killed."

Zu Wu didn't lower his voice, both Tengman and Shanman could hear him clearly.

The people in the tribe were still trembling, shrinking their necks and not daring to move.The leaders of the two departments already had ferocious faces, and they looked at each other very unkindly, with murderous intent flashing across their eyes.

One person leads the way, and there is only one place.

If you don't want to be a slave, you must seize the opportunity, and you will not hesitate to trample your former allies under your feet!

Taking a panoramic view of the reactions of both sides, the team is ordering the leaders to be brought out, taking away their weapons, and ordering them to fight with bare hands.

"The winner leads the way."

Rongdi in the grassland are difficult to tame. The Xiyuan clan can rely on the king to show their face. The Bei'an clan does not have this condition, so they can only find another way. Splitting the captured Di clan is the first step.

The team is fascinated by it, and has personally executed it, and it is very familiar with the rattan man and the mountain man.

The two chiefs were brought out, staring at each other, eyes unblinking, as if locked on prey.After the captain gave permission, the two shouted at the same time, clenched their fists and rushed towards each other, like two fighting beasts.

The two are tall and big, standing out from the crowd among the barbarians.Spare no effort when fighting, punching to the flesh.The heavy punch landed on the body with a bang, almost smashing bones.

After a few back and forth, the faces of the two were painted, and there were many bruises and fist marks on their bodies.

The team was observing the crowd and found that most of them raised their heads, nervously paying attention to the outcome of the game.When the leader of his own side staggered to the ground, he couldn't help shouting, and looked at the opposite side, his expression was full of anger.

The team was reaching its goal, and ordered Zuo Wu to go to the field to pull the two away and stop the fight.

"The victory and defeat are already divided."

The leader of the mountain man was superior and knocked the leader of the rattan to the ground.Taking advantage of the opponent's failure to get up, he bent his knees and pressed down on the opponent's back.If the team doesn't call a stop, it is likely to crush the spine of the vine barbarian leader, paralyzing him on the spot.

"You come with me."

The team was ordering the leader of the mountain barbarians to follow him, and the rest of the barbarians were gathered together and brought into the camp by the soldiers.

The leader of the vine man got up from the ground, stared at the leader of the mountain man who was gone, spat out a mouthful of blood foam, and spat out a tooth that had been knocked out.

This revenge will be reported sooner or later!

The leader of the rattan man doesn't hate the captain, but he hates the leader of the mountain man so much that he gnashes his teeth, wishing he could eat his blood and eat his flesh.

Prey do not resent the hunter, only fear.In the eyes of the leader of the vines, the Bei'an army is the hunter, and he and the tribesmen are the prey, so there is nothing to resent if they fall into the opponent's hands.The leader of the mountain barbarian was in the same position as him, and if he took advantage from him, he would keep it firmly in his heart, and he would take revenge sooner or later.

Shanman and Tengman were brought into the camp, and when they met the patrol team approaching, they dared not breathe.

Passing a wooden frame that was erected, ten forest soldiers were found hanging on it, like blood gourds one by one.Frightened by this scene, all of Fujiman Shanman's hair stood on end, and they all looked away at the same time, not daring to take another look.

The two Chinese doctors were in charge of questioning, but they had exhausted all their means, and they even broke two whips, but they still didn't get much useful information.Facing the blank bamboo slips, the two of them frowned, not knowing how to explain to the young master.

Historian Yanlu walked out of the tent, went straight to two Chinese doctors, and handed over a piece of silk.

He didn't want to interfere at first, but he was really upset by the noise.It is difficult to write with a pen, and the work efficiency is too low, which makes him unbearable.

"Do like this." The words are succinct.

A Chinese doctor unfolded the silk cloth, looked at it from beginning to end, and gasped on the spot.Pass the handkerchief to the colleague, and after counting breaths, the performance of the other party is the same.

Having achieved his goal, he nodded at the two of them, turned and returned to the tent.

The two Chinese doctors stayed where they were, looking at each other and looking at you. At the same time, I was glad that the Yan family was the official historian. If not, there would be many chilling and cruel officials in various countries.
