After receiving Bai Qi's order, the various departments immediately organized elite cavalry teams and began to round up the migrating grassland ethnic groups.
“Tick, tick, tick.”
It was really raining again when the roof leaked, and the boat was late and the wind came to the forefront. On the way to evacuate, it started to rain lightly again.
You should know that among these migrant people, not only the young and strong of all races, but also the elderly, weak, women and children of all races, as well as a large number of cattle, sheep and horses.
Even if it doesn't rain, it's not easy to migrate with your family, let alone the heavy rain is scared in the sky today.
"Click!"
"Boom!"
After a miserable blue lightning flashed across the sky, a rumbling thunder sounded. Then a "crackling" sound of rain came down head by head.
"Hu, Hu, Hu."
The rain on the grassland was very fast, and there were also strong winds coming. At this time, when migrating against the wind, even the animals could no longer move.
"Camp!"
"Camp!"
A shouting horse in animal skin galloped back and forth in the team, shouting loudly, reminding the tribe members to camp.
At this time, the wind is tight and the rain is urgent, and this weather is no longer suitable for you to come.
The tribesmen took out tents from the carriages and began to camp on the spot. After setting up the barracks, many people began to nail large wooden stakes on the ground. These large wooden stakes were used to tie ropes to make fixing points for the tents.
Soon the tent was tied up. The elderly, children, and women entered the tent to hide from the rain first. The young and strong began to nail down the wooden stakes in the heavy rain, fixed them with rope nets to pull up temporary cattle and sheep pens to prevent the storm from being too strong and losing cattle and sheep.
This migrating tribe can only be considered a medium-sized tribe on the grassland. There are about 10,000 people in total, including men, women, young and old.
However, although the population is not too large, there are many animals in this tribe. The cows, sheep and horses together must be at least 100,000 of them with hair on them.
After two or three hours of busyness, I kept busy from the afternoon until dark, and the tribe then set up the camp.
After settled the cattle and sheep, the young and strong people in the tribe also entered the tent, and the bonfire was lit with dry cow dung as firewood.
Above the bonfire, there was a copper pot hanging, among which was the most popular horse-milky wine of the Huns.
"Damn, take good care of the baby tonight. It's my turn today!" The man poured a glass of macadamia wine and said to the woman sitting on the bed holding the baby.
This bed is very simple. It is a chariot used to transport goods during the day. It is covered with animal skins and bedding, and it becomes a migrating bed.
"It's windy and rainy outside, be careful!" The Hun woman held the child and reminded her.
"I know, I know!" After the strong Hun man said that, he drank all the horse milk wine on the table, then poured a pot into the skin on his waist, picked up the knife on the table, and the straw raincoat on the boat came out of the tent.
Although it is windy and rainy weather, there are still no missing posts near the camp. Not only should we beware of the Seven-Nation Alliance, but we should also beware of the wolves on the grassland.
This kind of weather is a good weather for wolves to find food. If the guard post is negligent and the wolves are allowed to get into the camp, there may be many animals to die.
You know, if the animal like wolf is mixed into the cattle and sheep pen, although he can't eat many animals, he will bite many animals to death.
For the Huns, wolves are actually not terrible. Because no matter how big the wolf pack is, it cannot be the opponent of the crowd with strong bows and hard crossbows.
On the grassland, people who are alone may be afraid of wolves, but people in groups will never be afraid of wolves.
"Click!"
"Boom!"
"Hu, Hu, Hu, Hu!"
"Crack!"
Lightning, thunder, storm.
In the heavy rain, a team of ten people was patrolling in their defense zone, and the man in the lead was the man just now.
Although they were wearing straw raincoats, they were still covered in heavy rain.
Let's just say that, their bodies were already wet, and even a single dry hair was left.
"Damn Qin people, if it weren't for them, we wouldn't have migrated!" A burly Hun man cursed.
"It's not just the Qin people, but according to my opinion, the people in the Central Plains deserve to die!" Another Hun said.
"Okay, stop saying these complaints!"
"When we move to Langjuxu Mountain, we will fight a tough battle with the seven-nation coalition forces!" said the young man in charge.
During the heavy rain, these Huns were patrolling in the rain. From time to time, they felt a little cold. They took off the skin on their waists and poured a few sips of warm horse milk wine to drive away the cold and refresh the spirit.
At the same time, about ten miles away from this Hun camp, a 10,000-person cavalry team of Han army had already set their sights on this team.
The leader of this Han cavalry was wearing a chain armor with animal face, a three-pointed purple gold crown, a Xichuan red brocade robe, a red rabbit horse with a thousand miles of wind under his crotch, and a square sky painting halberd in his hand.
This person is not someone else, but the godson recognized by Emperor Liu Bang of Han, and Lu Bu and Lu Fengxian were also there.
"General Lu, the enemy situation ahead has been discovered. It is a Hun tribe with about 10,000 people. There are more than 5,000 string control men and at least 100,000 animals!" Gao Shun bowed and reported.
"What a big deal!" Zhang Liao also sighed from the side.
Today, Lu Bu has a cavalry of ten thousand people in the Han army, and his ten thousand commanders were the eight powerful generals composed of Zhang Liao, Gao Shun, Wei Xu, Song Xian and others.
Lu Bu thought for a moment. There were only 5,000 tribes with string control, and they could eat such tribes.
What made Lu Bu most happy was that the Hun tribe in front of him had 100,000 animals. You know, there were 100,000 animals in this ten-person tribe. This is equivalent to even the elderly and children, each person had 10 animals on average.
This is a wealthy tribe. The Huns have been intercepted and killed for several days. This is the fattest sheep I have encountered.
"Zhang Liao, take Wei Xu, Song Xian will surround him from the left."
"Gao Shun, you take Hou Cheng and Hao Meng encircle him from the right."
"The rest of the people, Sui, I will attack head-on! If there is any resistance, kill me no matter how hard it is!" Lu Bu's cold order was conveyed.
The night was deep, the rain was magnificent, and the crackling sound of rain and rumbling thunder had completely covered the sound of horse hooves.
"Click!"
A miserable blue lightning flashed through the night. With the miserable blue light, the Hun man patrolling seemed to see a hazy figure ahead.
He rubbed his eyes, afraid that he had read it wrong, but when he saw it carefully, he saw that, sure enough, a figure was getting closer and closer in the night.
"Some people, some people!" The strong Hun man who was patrolling the night shouted loudly.
