Xu Yunyan, Xue Li and others led the Tiance Guards and a group of Turkic servants to protect the tribe and began to march safely towards Chang'an. However, the scouts who were arranged to go out ran farther and farther away, and more and more people The tribal news about this situation was gathered in front of Xu Yunyan and Xue Li.
This made the two of them look gloomy.
"It seems that we are indeed targeting them. Otherwise, why would these small tribes with more than a hundred people all suffer hardships? And those tribes with hundreds or even thousands of people do not have any problems. It seems that they are not fully prepared, but since They are doing such things along our lines, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with targeting us."
Xu Yunyan sighed heavily, thinking about the worst outcome, and Xue Li also looked at Xu Yunyan, also filled with indignation at this situation.
"Yes, I didn't expect these people to be so crazy, so what should we do next?"
"Stop moving forward."
Xu Yunyan said without thinking, "Now there is water where we are, and we have enough supplies. What's more, we also captured some food in the wilderness."
Of course, this food is those ownerless cattle, sheep and horses. There may have been owners some time ago, but after this period of time, no one can be sure that these are their cattle and sheep, even if they may have become tired. Bones, it is impossible to speak.
However, when Xu Yunyan talked about the supply of grain and grass materials, Xue Li did feel a little embarrassed.
"But our food can only last for two months. What if we are delayed for a long time again and cannot return to Chang'an?"
Xu Yunyan looked at him, "Since these people want to use wolves to attack us, aren't wolves also our food?"
After Xu Yunyan said something, Xue Li couldn't help but be stunned.
Yes, this wolf is also the food they need. They can also enjoy it. Since they dare to use their humans as food, then humans are also determined to eat all the wolves, not to mention that Xu Yunyan has a precedent of using wolves as food.
But just after Xu Yunyan finished speaking, he looked at Xue Li, who was still worried, and patted his shoulder again.
"You have to believe us. Just stop moving forward. These people are more anxious than us. The food they have has a certain shelf life."
Now when talking to Xue Li about the shelf life, Xue Li might not understand it very well, but when Xu Yunyan told him that even wolves would not come to eat the meat in a few days, Xue Li finally understood.
Xu Yunyan did this not to delay for a long time, but because their enemies only had a few days to spare.
Under such circumstances, Xue Li nodded.
"I understand, I'll start setting up camp now."
Just when Xue Li was about to arrange his soldiers, Xu Yunyan stretched out his hand to stop him.
"Don't worry, there are some things we don't do openly, but in secret. We can't let them discover anything."
Soon Xu talked to Xue Li about his arrangements, digging pits and laying traps, and a series of other things that made Xu Yunyan's mouth dry, but Xue Li's eyes were shining.
After receiving Xu Yunyan's explanation, Xue Li looked at the wolf tooth on Xu Yunyan's wrist that kept flying as he continued to explain, and then said curiously.
"Did you get this tooth from a wolf king in this way?"
When talking about this tooth, Xu Yunyan smiled and then stretched out his hand to pull the tooth and shook it in front of Xue Li.
"Of course, these are the teeth I obtained when I led my team on a rapid march and encountered a pack of wolves. The few defeated the many. I eliminated all the wolves, killed the wolf king, and defeated the wolves."
As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, Xue Li nodded in front of him, as if he understood, and then even more assured in front of Xu Yunyan.
"I must also get a tooth like this like you."
However, Xu Yunyan and Xue Li did not discuss too much on the topic of wolves. Instead, they personally led some soldiers to dig pits according to their ideas.
Dig a pit, lay a trap, lay a trap.
But just when Xu Yunyan and his team were seizing the time to place the traps they needed and arrange the personnel they needed to carry out the work they needed to do, they were in another location sheltered from the wind.
The leader of the Turkic tribe couldn't help laughing as he looked at the cart after cart of salted food being pulled over.
It's just that he was smiling unscrupulously, not even noticing that there were several people with malicious intentions next to him, and there was a hint of danger in his eyes that no one was aware of.
It’s just that the leader of the tribe in front of him was laughing loudly, and kept promising that as long as everything is done, everyone who follows him will receive super preferential treatment, whether it is becoming the captain of thousands, the deputy captain of ten thousand, or the leader of the tribe. There is no problem for other existences with name and status.
Of course, the premise must be to obey him and win this matter.
But what the leader didn't notice was that the more he said this, the more people next to him looked at him and winked at his companions. After nodding, these people suddenly stood up and walked towards the leader, who was still pointing there. Watching them.
"You are here just in time. Each of you can take back two carts of these foods."
It’s just that the Turkic leader didn’t notice. Now he distributed his goods wantonly, so that the people in front of him could take a few cars back to his territory. Those who glared at him had to suppress the anger in their hearts and stepped forward. After taking a few carriages of supplies, they began to return to their tribe without looking back. And they were not dissatisfied at being the leader of the tribe in this way, as if this was how they should be.
The tribal leader looked at them with a smile after receiving the supplies.
"I'm not mean to you, right? When I have something good, I will give it to you as soon as possible, but I will never keep it for myself. Don't you still believe in me? Serving me as your Lord is the most correct choice you have made. .”
This is what the leader couldn't stop talking about, but the people next to him saw someone going to receive the food and then stepped forward to receive the food. However, they didn't get close, but they only saw some red ones from a distance. Or dark red food pickled in salt.
But upon getting closer, a complete arm, a thigh, etc. were all mixed in the food, and it was impossible to wrap such complete items in salt, and the salt on the grassland was not a popular commodity and was in short supply. Resources, under such circumstances, everyone couldn't help complaining about their general. How could their backbone arrange such a thing and arrange such food for them?
Some of them were even more timid. They turned around and started vomiting. The bile was almost coming out from the vomiting. However, no one laughed at them. Instead, their faces were ashen and they endured it as if they were nearby. They would spit out something like this if they were not careful.
But the tribe leader laughed.
"If you can't accept this, then you charge into battle and kill thousands of enemies. How can you stand that kind of scene?
I decided not to let you go back tonight. You will all have a meal here with me. Let's use the campfire to roast the delicacies we finally got and taste how delicious our food is. "
The leader didn't say it was okay. As soon as he said it, the people surrounding him ran away without a trace.
How could this be? Are these things really something we can eat?
But they were all muttering here, but the leader just waved his hand.
"Why are you still standing there? A few people haven't come over to cook the food. Are you going to let us eat it raw?"
After the leader spoke, the soldiers next to him were reluctant, but they still stepped forward. Some of them looked at the food in front of them. Although they were frightened, they still suppressed the disgusting fear in their hearts and took the food down. After all, many of them come from their hands.
After the fragrance spread quickly in the camp, those who were forced not to leave sat there with livid faces, waiting for the people in front to serve them.
Food that they cannot swallow no matter what.
As for the first few who showed murderous intent towards the leader, those who left looked at the two cars of bloody supplies behind them and couldn't help but think about it.
"These are all my Turks, they are our Turks' future, they are the hope for our rise. Look at such a small child, they are not letting go?
Can such a leader really follow them? Although he is making military rations for us, those who are old and frail can only make military rations. Why should these young people be made into food by him?
Hateful, really hateful. Do we really have no problem being with him? Isn't it like seeking skin from a tiger? "
While these people were muttering uncontrollably, a Turkic man suddenly said something next to him.
"Chief, why don't we go back and admit our mistake? We didn't do anything, we didn't execute anything, we were just deceived by them. If we find out their true identity and go tell Tang Jun, we won't be in too much trouble, right? ? Maybe Tang Jun will let us forget it?"
After this person suddenly said this sentence, the two Turkic people with ugly faces couldn't help being shocked.
Yes.
Since living the previous life will face huge difficulties and cost huge casualties, why not live a stable life?
As long as the other people in their tribe live well, what if they live the same life?
Although it felt quite uncomfortable to pick it up and put it down, I still nodded.
"Just as you said. Let's go find Tang Jun now."
But what they didn't know was that they were pulling this cart to serve as food. Not far away, they heard howls of wolves one after another in the distance.
Hearing this voice, the faces of the tribal leaders who wanted to go to the Tang Army camp changed greatly.
"No, it's actually a pack of wolves. It's a shame that we used this food to attract the pack of wolves. God forbid us. Are we really going to die here?"
