Tiele gestured to the surrounding tents in amusement: "I just moved here and haven't had time to clean it up yet. So it's a little messy."
Ren Ning was not surprised either. He looked around with a smile and said, "Okay, it's better than I imagined."
This place is close to the Desert of No Return, and neither pasture nor drinking water is sufficient to support too many livestock, so the herdsmen need to move camps from time to time.
In other words, they became nomads again.
The guests and hosts sat down, and Tie Le poured a cup of milk tea for Ren Ning, "Brother-in-law, did you find this place? Did the people from Luoxi in the west tell you about it?"
Luoxi tribe?
Ren Ning was startled and suddenly thought of the small tribe destroyed by the Langston people in the mountain nest to the west.
only……
He was a little confused, "Why did Luo Xi move to the vicinity of the Desert of No Return?"
Ren Ning had worked as a scout for a long time in Yanji Fortress, so Ren Ning knew some of the more famous tribes in Xiliang.
For example, Luoxi is a tribe about the same size as Kailun.
There are too many small and medium-sized tribes like this in the vast grassland, and they are usually irrelevant.
Moreover, the Luoxi tribe is too far away from Yunchui, so Ren Ning doesn't know much about them.
But Luoxi happened to be on the business road in the middle of the Xiliang Prairie, and caravans coming and going would pass by, so he occasionally heard about it.
It is said that the girls of this tribe are extremely beautiful...
Other than that, Ren Ning knew nothing.
But what he was sure of was that Luoxi's location was far away from the Desert of No Return to the north. There's no way it would be here unless something happened.
"It's like this..." Tie Le and others explained, and then Ren Ning understood what happened.
It can be summed up in three sentences.
Luoxi was forced to escort the Xiliang army to carry grain and medicinal materials to Yunchui, but was intercepted by an unknown army on the way.
They can't afford to pay.
Ximo, who led the team, had no choice but to flee here with some of the Luoxi tribe.
cough!
Ren Ning suddenly understood and coughed lightly.
After meeting up with Gu Datou and his entourage, he once carefully boasted to Ren Ning about his experience after riding two hundred heroes from the Eighth Battalion into the grassland.
And it was them who robbed Luo Xi.
After thinking for a moment, Ren Ning said, "It's a pity. This group of Luoxi people may be in danger now."
Tie Le and others were startled, and stood up in unison: "What's going on?"
"Yes." Yang Lan's expression was the most anxious: "Half a month ago, Ximo came to visit us with his sister."
As she spoke, she glanced at Tie Le.
At that time, Ximo's sister was flirting with Tie Le.
And since Yingpan went to Yunchui, Yanglan had no other female friends.
Finally, he met a girl of similar age and similar interests, and the two soon became good friends and besties who talked about everything.
When Ren Ning said this, she couldn't help but become anxious.
Ren Ning told what he had seen and heard in the past few days, "I saw with my own eyes that the mountain nest has been occupied by people from the Langston Principality. There are nearly two hundred heads hanging on the ruins."
Several people's faces turned pale in an instant, and the tent became deathly silent.
After a long while, Yang Lan fell down on the chair and covered her face tightly.
"Run away!" She burst into tears. "We fled thousands of miles from our hometown to get here."
"I thought that although the land here was a little barren, it was deserted and uncontested. I always thought that my brothers had finally found a place where everyone could live peacefully in troubled times."
"did not expect……"
The more she talked, the sadder she became, and finally she ran out of the tent crying.
boom!
Tie Le punched the table in front of him heavily.
They were all small tribes who migrated all the way here to avoid the war. Luoxi, who now lives next to each other, may have been brutally murdered. They were close to each other, and they couldn't help but feel sad.
Ren Ning didn't say anything, just took out a letter from home and handed it over.
Tie Le suppressed his anger and sat down again: "What is this?"
"When I passed by the Kailun tribe, I saw Tai and Canglang. They knew I was coming here, so they wrote a letter to you."
Uncle Santai and the letter written by Canglang?
Allen and others next to him were all in high spirits.
"Master..." They stretched their necks in unison.
"Let me take a look first." Tiele nodded and asked casually: "Is our hometown okay now?"
He didn't wait for Ren Ning to reply and couldn't wait to open the letter from home.
Wow.
After reading a few lines, he stood up suddenly, his hands trembling and he almost tore the letter.
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Sir, what's going on?" Allen and others were shocked and quickly took the letter.
After a while, they all fell back on their chairs with gray faces.
One by one they buried their heads deeply.
The Kailun tribe of more than 30,000 people was wiped out and turned into ruins like Luoxi in the small mountain nest to the west.
After a while, Tiele came back to his senses and read the letter again.
"Brother-in-law," he asked hoarsely, "Where are Uncle Santai and the others now?"
"There has been a war north of Kailun, so I asked them to go south..." Ren Ning explained in detail everything that happened after he and Lei Er arrived at the Kailun tribe.
Allen unconsciously covered his face and choked up: "I told them to leave with us."
"It's okay now!" He burst into tears. "Stay there, you have to eat and live, and you are hunted down by the Benlu tribe every day."
I don't know how long they can last.
snort!
Youmeng snorted coldly, "Do you think they are single like you? They are old and young. It is normal that they were unwilling to leave with us at the beginning."
"Besides, will it be safe to move to this barren land?"
Luoxi, who lives in peace with the world in the west, was just killed by Beixiong's Langston Principality!
"Brother-in-law, how many days have you been here from the Principality of Langston?" Tiele suddenly said.
Allen and others were startled, and shouted out loud: "Young Master?"
"There is not much south of the No Return Desert. If Luoxi is destroyed, we will probably be the next ones." Tie Le's face was full of murderous intent, "It seems that there is no way to escape. Yun Chui often said that the first step is to strike first." If you are strong, you will suffer disaster if you attack later."
"Let's go do what he brewed."
Besides, after arriving in the Desert of No Return, they didn't just stay in the pastoral, they also trained a team.
It's time for them to come out sticky and bloody.
"Yes." Allen stared at the letter on the table, "I will take people back to destroy the Benlu tribe in the future, and even..."
Xiliang Royal Court.
Ren Ning nodded, not too surprised.
"We captured a few tongues. According to their confessions, Langston's vanguard was about two thousand people and brought more than two hundred camels. From the look in the eyes of those beasts, they should not be war horses but just pure caravan camels. "
"As for the subsequent large force, it is said that they are hidden in an oasis called Pearl, and their number is estimated to be more than 50,000."
"Pearl Oasis?" Simon said dumbly, "I'll go to this place. The oasis is very big, but it's unlikely that it can accommodate 50,000 people."
Ren Ning nodded, "Then the tongue I caught is lying."
Thinking about it, Grand Duke Langston was forced to flee after the neighboring country's troops came to the city.
It was amazing that he could bring all his family members and guards with him in such a hurry. There couldn't be too many people.
