At first, people from three tribes competed for war horses. But in the blink of an eye, no matter who it was, they would grab the horses whenever they saw them. It didn’t matter which tribe they belonged to, even if they waved their swords at their acquaintances.
!
As for the old, weak, women and children, they have long been excluded from the calculation of these young and strong! In the minds of the Mongolians, only the young and strong tribes will have a future. Anyway, women can be robbed and children can be born! This is the cruel custom on the Mongolian grasslands.
Chaos quickly spread from the center of the camp. Everyone in the north of the tribe was looking for a way out and had no intention of resisting! This allowed the soldiers of the Wu'an Army to advance faster.
Originally, the Mongolians would still resist, but now all that is exposed in front of the soldiers is their backs. The cavalry only needs to charge, slash, and trample them with their horses! But the fire rifle soldiers were so busy that they didn't even have time to reload their ammunition.
Just stab it with a bayonet or hit it with a rifle butt!
As everyone who could escape fled, the Wu'an Army quickly took control of the camp and drove the living people into the center of the camp. As for the burning ones, they did not put them out, but just knocked down the surrounding tents and threw them into the fire.
An isolation zone formed in the pile, so the fire slowly extinguished.
By the time they had controlled the fire and searched the entire camp, it was already broad daylight. At this time, Liu Haojia rode up to the Mongols and took a rough look at them. He found that there were not many young men among them, and there were many young men on their bodies.
With injuries.
Most of the rest are women and children, and there are very few elderly people. Because the living conditions of the Mongolian tribes are so poor and people's life span is relatively short, there are not many elderly people. Moreover, these old people have resisted like crazy just now, and they have the will to resist.
Even more determined than those young people, so there were many casualties!
But now that they are defeated, they have lost the courage to resist, and they are huddled together dejectedly, just like they usually drive sheep. I am afraid that if Liu Haojia orders to kill them all at this time, they will kill them too!
In fact, Liu Haojia was really enduring the murderous intention in his heart! Because taking back the heads of these people was also a military achievement! Although the imperial court explicitly ordered that only young and strong men be considered for credit when the heads were accepted, but giving some money to the officials of the Ministry of War was women.
Children's heads can also be counted as military merits, but Liu Haojia didn't want to do that!
Because what he wants to create is a servant with ideals, beliefs, and fighting ability, and he does not want to turn his soldiers into a group of demons who kill for fun! In that case, this kind of army will quickly degenerate even if it is tyrannical.
Finally, Liu Haojia made up his mind and said loudly: "I know that you live close to the border of Ming Dynasty, and many of you understand Chinese. Now you heard me clearly, it was the leader of your tribe who led the attack on my army, so I
It is only natural that we should retaliate against you! But what puzzles me is that we are clearly an army here, not a caravan. Why is the leader of your tribe not afraid of provoking a war between the two countries and attacking us? This makes me very sad.
Doubts! So if anyone can answer the doubts, I can let you go now!"
Most of the Mongolians present do not understand Chinese, but there must be many who do. After all, Chinese, as the common language throughout Asia, has a high degree of recognition.
Sure enough, Liu Haojia saw someone in the crowd saying something in Mongolian, and the Mongolians who heard the words were surprised and began to whisper, and their faces also had the look of surviving a disaster. So he knew that the matter was done!
Sure enough, a moment later, an old man wearing worn leather armor squeezed through the crowd and came over. Liu Haojia looked at the old man's neatly tied leather armor, and then looked at the leather robes of others, even naked people, and sighed.
The old guy must be a veteran, with extremely quick reactions! Otherwise, when the young people didn't even put on their armor, he would have already put on his armor to fight, and he could still survive in the chaos.
When the old herdsman walked out of the crowd, he threw the scimitar in his hand on the ground. He took out a dagger from his waist and a dagger from his boot and threw them on the ground. Then he walked towards Liu Haojia.
Then two servants went up to check him and searched his whole body before letting him go to Liu Haojia's horse. He stood in front of the horse's head with one hand on his chest and bowed, saying in pure and fluent Chinese: "This sir,
Just now you called yourself this Marquis, could it be that you are a noble Marquis?"
Liu Haojia nodded and said nothing, because he couldn't brag about something like this, but naturally someone would do it for him. So the servant who just searched him held the handle of his knife and said proudly: "The person in front of you is the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
Ninghou!"
Hearing this, the old herdsman looked Liu Haojia up and down in surprise, and then he was scolded by his servant before lowering his head again. But no one could see his eyes moving around, wondering what he was planning?
Someone in the crowd behind him also translated the servant's words, which caused a low noise among the Mongolians. However, they became quieter after the fantasy, because the credibility of what a marquis said was quite high. Maybe they
Really survive!
At this time, the old herdsman stroked his chest again and said: "So you are a noble prince! Then Colin, the herdsman on the grassland, pays tribute to you. May the God of Immortality bless you!"
Liu Haojia tapped his boots with a riding whip and said: "Since you dare to come out, you must know something, so tell me what you know and see if you can save your life and the lives of these people! You should know, you guys
Bringing his head back to the Ming Dynasty is a military achievement, and I happen to be a Marquis of Wu!"
When Colin heard this, he bent even lower! He said loudly: "Dear Marquis, please rest assured, men on the grassland do not lie!"
As soon as Liu Haojia raised his riding whip, the servant immediately said loudly: "If the old man has something to say, please speak quickly. Don't mess with these clouds and mountains!"
Colin did not dare to delay any longer this time and immediately said: "Master Hou, actually I just figured this out! Normally, no one would attack the Ming Dynasty's army. After all, there has been no war between the Ming Dynasty and the grassland for a long time.
No one likes to live a precarious life, so I was surprised when the leader said he was going to attack the Ming army!"
At this time, the servant tightened his waist knife and interjected: "Old man, try being verbose again!"
Colin glanced at the servant's hand and found that his fingers had been pressed on the circlip. He knew that he was really likely to draw the knife. So he immediately continued: "Then I remembered something, about two months ago
More than a month ago, a caravan came to our tribe. There is nothing special about this caravan, the only difference is that it brought two guests!"
