Although the Han army adopted a dragnet-style search and advanced fast enough, some fish inevitably slipped through the net. The one who escaped was a young man named Fu Mo. Fu Mo was a young man with more than 3,000 men.
The son of the leader of a medium-sized tribe. This medium-sized tribe is dependent on the large tribe of Kuitou.
Fu Mo is only thirteen years old this year, but he is a child on the grassland who has been riding horses and archery since he was a child. He is also very clever and very smart. He is very popular with the leader and has promised to recruit him as his son-in-law. Therefore, Fu Mo is alone.
After escaping, the first thing I thought of was to defect to Kuitou's tribe.
Kuitou personally led the army to Taiyuan. Now the person in charge of the tribe is Kuitou's wife Mo Ergan. Hearing that the Han army appeared in the Mobei grassland and took away Jianman's camp, he was shocked and hurriedly sent someone to ask Fuluo
Han and Budugen, the two tribal leaders
His wife came to discuss it. Because Fulohan and Budugen had gone to the Central Plains, these two tribes were now headed by women. What Morgan didn't know was that Fulohan's camp had also been captured by the Han people, and Fulohan's camp had also been captured by the Han.
Wives and concubines became the spoils of war for the Han people.
The camp of Budugen tribe was not far from Kuitou's camp. Budugen's wife Yeni received Morgan's invitation and hurried over with dozens of guards. As soon as they entered the camp, they smiled and said: "Moergan
Damn it, the Khans are busy fighting with the Han people, but you are interested in inviting me here for a drink."
Morgan was worried that there would be chaos after the news of the Han army's raid on the Mobei grassland spread, so he temporarily blocked it, so Ye Ni didn't know what happened.
Seeing Ye Ni's careless smile, Mo Ergan frowned and said, "Sister, follow me into the account quickly, something big has happened!"
It turns out that Mo Ergan and Ye Ni are not only sisters-in-law, but also cousins.
Ye Ni's expression turned solemn, and as she walked, she asked, "Sister, what happened?"
Entering the big tent, Morgan waved his servants to leave, but left Qi Mo behind and said, "Ask him."
With tears in his eyes, Xi Mo recounted the tragic experience of the tribe. He is the son of the tribe leader and he is young. Both Ye Ni and Morgan believed that he would not lie.
"You go out first. I will discuss this matter with my sister and I will definitely help you get revenge." Ye Ni waved her hand, turned to Morgan and said, "Sister, how do you plan to deal with Qi Mo?"
Mo Erqian was stunned and said: "Qi Mo is the one the Great Khan likes. My little daughter has been promised to him. What do you mean by this?"
Yeni sneered and said: "Sister, you are so confused! One moment, another moment. Wasn't it because his tribe had three thousand warriors that the Great Khan took a fancy to him? Now that his tribe has nothing, does it mean that my sister still wants to kill him?
My daughter promised him? Why not take advantage of this chaos and end up taking his life, so as not to have a hard time being a good person!"
Mo Ergan was shocked, but after thinking about it, he felt that Ye Ni's words were very reasonable. On the grassland, strength always spoke. Now that Qi Mo has nothing, how can he deserve to continue to be her son-in-law? Although he is only a woman, as a
Tribal leader's daughter
People should not only be beautiful, but also know how to be witty and skillful, and be able to be ruthless. Morgan pondered for a moment, nodded, and said: "Sister is right, this matter is up to you. We still discuss it now.
Let’s learn how to avoid the Han people.”
After Helian's death, Jianman's tribe gradually weakened, and the tribes of the three brothers Kuitou, Fulohan and Budugen gradually became the largest tribe in Xianbei. The camps of these three tribes were naturally quite large, and it was easy to
Discovered by the Han army.
Ye Ni was quite scheming and had already made plans for this matter. Otherwise, she would not have considered deposing Mo at this critical moment. After hearing what Mo Ergan said, she asked: "In my opinion, what should I do?"
How to deal with it?”
Morgan was a straight-tempered man and said without hesitation: "The Han people are coming fiercely. All the young men of our clan have been transferred to the Central Plains, so it may be difficult to resist them. It is better to move eastward to temporarily avoid their sharp edge."
But Ye Ni waved her hand and said: "Sister, what you said is wrong! According to what Qi Mo said, the Han people are coming from west to east. Even if they avoid Liaodong, they probably won't be able to escape."
Morgan hesitated and said: "Then we can only go south to Danhan Mountain first, and then send someone to notify the Great Khan to lead his army to come back for reinforcements in order to protect the people."
Yeni shook her head and said: "The Great Khan is determined to win this time when he marches into the Central Plains. If he hears that the Han people are attacking the grasslands, the morale of the army will be in chaos. We must not disrupt the Great Khan's position and fall into the Han people's plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain! This news cannot let the Great Khan
Know!"
Morgan trusted his cousin very much. He thought for a moment and said, "In your opinion, what should we do? We can't just sit back and wait for death."
Ye Ni suddenly smiled and said: "The grassland is so vast that there is no place where we can live. Didn't the Han people come from the west? Then let's do the opposite."
Mo Ergan stood up excitedly and said in surprise: "You said we should go west!"
Ye Ni said proudly: "Sister, what are you worried about? Are the Han people more familiar with the grassland than us? After the sun sets, we will break camp and head west. At dawn tomorrow, we will be behind the Han people, and they will continue eastward.
, even if we look over the grassland, we can’t be found.”
Mo Ergan thought for a while, and there really was no other better way, so he had to say: "Then according to what my sister said, it's getting late, so go back and get ready, Emperor Dao Supreme."
The camp of the Budugen tribe is very close to here. Yeni arrived here with her tribe before dark, and the people of the Kuitou tribe had already packed up. Seeing Yeni, Morgan said with a worried face:
"The people from the Fulohan tribe haven't come yet."
Ye Ni waved her hand and said: "Sister, the Han people will come and kill you at any time. We can't wait any longer. Let's leave now!"
You can ignore those small tribes, but Kuitou, Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen are brothers. It is because of the support of Fu Luohan and Bu Dugen that Kuitou sat on the throne of Xianbei Great Khan.
Morgan couldn't bear it. He originally wanted to wait a little longer, but Ye Ni insisted again and again, so he had to give the order to set off. Before setting off, Ye Ni did not forget to send someone to quietly lead Qi Mo outside the camp and kill him with a knife.
Cut into two pieces.
The hiding place chosen by Morgan was a hidden mountain col. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides and a small river to the south. It was originally a very good place for the Xianbei people to avoid the white plague in winter, but it was not suitable for grazing and there were no herdsmen.
With the tent inside, it would not attract the attention of the Han people, so it is indeed a good idea to move the old, weak, women and children of these two tribes there. And according to the information brought by Fu Mo, the Han people should have already searched that mountain col.
Yes, it should be absolutely safe there, but there is not much time left for them. They need to get there before dawn tomorrow.
Originally, such a short distance could be reached in an instant for the Xianbei people who lived on horseback, but Morgan and Yeni were reluctant to abandon their large herds of cattle and sheep. In fact, even if the two of them could make a decision, other tribesmen would not
Agree. For the people living on the grasslands, these cattle and sheep are not only their most valuable property, but also the food they depend on for survival. Without these cattle and sheep, they will not be able to survive the winter.
Mo Ergan and Yeni's judgment was not wrong. Just during the day, the Han army had just searched that mountain col. What they didn't expect was that it was Zhao Yun who was searching that mountain col. After Zhao Yun had the idea of gathering his team,
The first reaction was to use the mountain col as a gathering place. Because the mountain col was secret enough, and as long as a small number of troops were sent to occupy the surrounding hillsides, the prisoners and loot could be easily guarded.
Almost at the same time as Mo Ergan and the others set off, the Han army also blew the rallying horn. Upon hearing the signal, the hundreds of Han army squads also blew their horns. The sound of the horn spread farther and farther, and soon spread throughout the open space.
The vast grassland. Groups of Han cavalry drove prisoners of war and large groups of cattle and sheep towards the mountain col.
There are also large herds of cattle and sheep in the team, but the speed of the Han army is much faster. Whether it is prisoners or cattle and sheep, as long as they walk slower, the soldiers will not hesitate to give them a knife without any scruples. Therefore, those who
In order to save his life, the prisoner ran not slow at all, although he did not ride a horse.
The sky is getting dark, and the shrill howls of wild wolves can be heard from time to time on the grassland, which makes people's hair stand on end. However, the tribes of Kuitou and Bu Dugen have a large number of people. There are more than 2,000 warriors alone, so there is no need to
Afraid of any wolf pack, but Moer
Qian and Yeni still ordered the tribesmen to light torches. After all, Morgan and Yeni were women and did not know about marching and fighting. They only knew that there were many children in the team. The light of fire could drive away wild animals and prevent children from accidents.
of damage.
But in the middle of the night, this large fire completely exposed their whereabouts. The Han cavalry team, which was also rushing to the mountain col from all directions, soon discovered this "migrating" team and hung up on it from a distance.
later.
The Han cavalry team also marched through the night, but they did not light torches. Instead, they used signal flares to send information to each other and tell others their positions. Most of the hundred-man squadron had already arrived at the mountain col, and a large number of Xianbei herdsmen were rushing here.
Zhao Yun has also learned the news of the arrival.
Zhao Yun looked at Ma Chao and asked, "Meng Qi, in your opinion, where do these Xianbei people come from?"
Ma Chao had just driven the prisoners and trophies of the Jianman tribe into the mountain col. When he heard the news, he said without hesitation: "No matter where he comes from, give him a force and he will crush them!"
Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "In the dark, many situations are difficult to figure out. Even if we win, it will be difficult to catch them all. It is better to be cautious. Let's send a few more teams to follow them and see where they are going.
where."
Morgan and Yeni's men moved slowly, while the Han cavalry came and went like the wind, with news constantly coming. The team was getting closer and closer to this mountain col, twenty miles, ten miles, five miles. Zhao Yun
He frowned and said thoughtfully: "Are they coming for us?"
