The battle started suddenly and ended just as quickly.
The soldiers showed no mercy, killing people on sight and burning tents on sight.
As soon as Chou Shi arrived, the entire Changyang tribe had already turned into a sea of fire.
The shouting and killing sounds that were everywhere gradually subsided soon after.
"Datou, we found a huge slaughterhouse."
"What storehouse?" Gu Datou was a little confused for a moment as his body was covered in blood.
"A marinated meat warehouse. It is estimated that people from Changyang marinated the meat and prepared to transport it to the east to be used as military rations."
Hold!
Gu Datou spat angrily, "Fuck the brew, take me to see it."
The group of people walked around east and west and arrived at a water source.
Next to it was a row of large tents, with bodies lying on the ground outside the tents.
Gu Datou took a quick glance and saw that there were almost a hundred people.
"They sent a lot of people out to put out the fire, and that's when it came to our attention. So it took a while."
Gu Datou understood and looked up.
There was a roaring fire on the top of this row of tents, which illuminated the scene inside dimly and brightly.
It was indeed a meat warehouse.
Each tent was hung with a variety of meats. Each strip was cut neatly and evenly, and the aroma of fat could be smelled from a distance.
Lu Youtian hurried over after hearing the news.
He spun around in shock, "Holy shit. With so much dried meat, how many cattle and sheep would they have to kill?"
Gu Datou casually picked off a piece and wiped his two sledgehammers, which were covered with meat foam and white brains, "I guess there are no less than two or three thousand of them."
Once this much dried meat is sent to the eastern front, it can solve the food problem of many Xiliang soldiers.
Hold!
Lu Youtian cursed again angrily.
"Brothers, it's getting late. Since the Changyang people have prepared rations for us, don't waste it. Everyone, just take some away!"
"Move quickly!"
Every tribe on the grassland is far apart from each other, and it is still late at night. Even though they are fighting to death here, it usually does not attract the attention of other tribes.
However, there are no absolutes. The best thing to do is to leave as soon as possible after finishing the work.
"Old Lu," a soldier stood up, "We have just chewed a few bites. The meat is just dried and there is no salt on it. With the current weather, it probably won't last long if we take it away."
Lu Youtian was startled.
Gu Datou even tore off a piece and stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it.
He spit out the meat with a sigh, "There is indeed no salt."
It dawned on them.
No wonder the spies could overhear the Changyang people talking about the caravan. He probably wanted to buy some salt or other substances.
Even if you kill your own cattle and sheep and even spend money to buy salt, you still have to pickle them into military rations and send them to the front line?
As expected of a small tribe attached to Blood Moon, they are loyal enough.
The faces of Gu Datou and Gu Datou became gloomier again.
"In that case, then kill some live cattle and sheep and take them away. As for all the dried meat, they will not leave any trace behind."
"yes!"
This saves your worries.
Various torches were thrown into the house. When those dried meats covered with grease were exposed to an open flame, they started to burn blazingly in a short time.
As for the slaughter of cattle and sheep, food is the most important thing for the people, so some people have already started doing the work.
"Have you found the eagle?" Gu Datou asked.
"I killed two of them."
"I killed a whole litter, one big one and three small ones."
"You're so stupid, you almost blinded me."
…
"Did anyone fly out?" Gu Datou asked again.
"No," the archer captain stood up, "My brothers and I have been watching the movement from the outside to ensure that not even a fly can escape from Changyang."
"Very good." Gu Datou nodded with satisfaction, "Hurry and deal with the traces we left. Check if there are any survivors. If there are any, don't be polite to hit them all. Be careful. In half a quarter of an hour, everyone returned to the team and left."
The soldiers dispersed.
They have survived to this day, so they understand the importance of eating clean and leaving no traces, and clean up the battlefield quickly.
Half a quarter of an hour later, three thousand people took their loot and disappeared into the thick darkness of the north.
The next afternoon, the Changyang people who went to put out the fire finally returned to their tribe.
They looked forward and almost doubted their own eyes.
There is no longer any Changyang tribe in front of us, only ruins and scattered corpses.
In grief, they looked at the corpses on the ground and soon discovered numerous wounds left by knives and guns.
Enemy attack, and a large-scale enemy attack.
Not to mention the tribesmen, even the hunting dogs and eagles were all killed.
The news quickly spread to Blood Moon.
The Blood Moon people were so shocked that they sent their youngest elder to come over overnight to find out what was going on.
Early the next morning, Blood Moon Broken Sword finally arrived.
He looked at the corpses strewn all over the ground and the entire settlement in Changyang, and his whole body trembled with anger.
After calming down, he asked: "Have you found out where the enemy came from and where he went?"
The entire Changyang tribe was lifeless.
It took a while before someone choked up and answered, "There are footprints all around the settlement. I can't tell where they came from. But the direction they left was probably north. It's just that the thieves walked a short distance north and got mixed up with the army's food road. , can never be found again.”
Without saying a word, Xue Yue Broken Sword mounted his horse and headed north.
It didn't take long for him and his subordinates to arrive near the grain road.
There happened to be a long team driving cattle and sheep heading east with various materials.
The war has been going on for so long, and countless cattle and sheep have been sent to the east. At this time, both sides of the grain path were filled with the excrement of various livestock. Although most of it is air-dried, it still smells a bit unpleasant when mixed together.
Several hunting dogs circled around, but found nothing.
Dry!
Xue Yue Duandao cursed silently and had no choice but to move up to the team in front.
"Bloody Moon Broken Sword, brothers, do you know which tribe you are from?"
Blood moon!
The leader of the other side was shocked and hurriedly came up to him, "Hello, Brother Blood Moon, we are from the Zhongkai tribe. My name is Wen Wei, and I am delivering military rations to the east. What hope do you have?"
Xueyue Duandao looked blank, but still forced a smile and said: "It turns out he is Zhong Kai's brother."
Wen Wei sighed silently when he saw it.
The grassland is vast and boundless, and there are countless tribes of various sizes.
Zhongkai, like Changyang, is a small and medium-sized tribe. And they are deep in the grassland, far away from here.
As one of the largest tribes on the grassland, it is normal for the Blood Moon to have never heard of them.
Wen Wei looked around doubtfully, "May I ask Brother Duandao, have we arrived at the pasture of the Blood Moon tribe?"
Bloody Moon Broken Blade did not answer this question, but just shook his head, "Everyone who came all the way east, did you find any strange teams?"
"A strange team?" Wen Wei wondered.
Blood Moon Broken Blade nodded, "There are probably quite a few of them, and they have committed some crimes within the scope of our Blood Moon. If you have seen them, please be sure to tell us. From now on, everyone will be Blood Moon's guests."
Wen Wei and his brothers looked at each other with strange looks in each other's eyes.
"Brother Blood Moon, we have been walking eastward these days and have not found anyone else except our own team. I guess I can't help you."
The most important thing is that if even Blood Moon dares to offend such a team, they will definitely not get any good results if they encounter them.
First latest.
