"Let's do this. Inform them and ask them to gather their cattle, sheep, us Xia people, and people from the Western Regions within three hundred miles of the pass in Taihuang County. They can just meet us."
"This general needs to complete the mission and ask them to send a thousand-man cavalry team to pick up the cattle and sheep. Take as much as they can. Don't give the Huns an advantage."
"promise!"
People from Tianshou Division began to contact each other hurriedly.
After discussion, the other three cavalry teams also drove the cattle and sheep towards the pass.
A thousand cavalry were sent out to collect supplies.
It has to be said that after having a phone, communication has become more convenient, although it cannot provide precise positioning like GPS.
But at least, it's infinitely better than not being able to contact him.
After having enough wine and food.
All the cavalrymen mounted their war horses and charged in the direction directed by the scouts.
Seeing the posture of those women riding horses, General Gao couldn't help but nodded. Not to mention how skilled the riders were, at least they were not beginners.
To be able to conduct long-distance trade in the Western Region, both men and women have good riding skills, and even ride camels in some specific places.
Many caravans only carry mounts and do not even have baggage vehicles. All goods are transported by the load of camels.
There is nothing that can be done about it, because there is no road in the Western Region.
After seeing that the women had entered the state, General Gao immediately issued an order for all the cavalry to speed up.
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.
Not far from the army, a relatively small tribe appeared.
There are only two thousand people.
In fact, the number of grassland people is particularly easy to count. When marching, you can determine the number of people by looking at the number of stoves. Of course, some old people, such as Yang Gan, will reduce the number of stoves to confuse the enemy.
For prairie people, it is even more convenient. You only need to count the number of tents to roughly determine the number of people, and the error will not exceed 10%.
There was another charge, and the tribe of two thousand people was taken away directly.
When General Gao was in the tribe, several women walked in immediately, their eyes full of admiration.
They had never seen such a neat and huge cavalry team in their lives. Even if they were plundered by the Huns, the Huns would not dispatch many cavalry, only about a thousand cavalry.
When the sun had not yet risen, he and others followed hundreds of cavalry to defend the general.
The rest of the cavalry galloped towards the enemy.
They were like lightning, quickly cutting through the silent air, with a heart-stopping majesty.
The heavy sound of horse hooves was like a symphony of death, stirring in their hearts, making them feel weak in their hands and feet, as if bound by invisible fear.
The cavalry were wearing iron armor and their masks were covered with frost, as if the god of death had come, making it impossible to resist their majesty and power.
The tribal tents in front of them were torn apart by the cavalry phalanx in an instant.
The women were all hairy and trembling with excitement.
This is the cavalry that protects them, this is the Xia border army that protects them, this is the power that Marquis Wu'an has always been proud of.
"General, how are our riding skills?"
General Gao was angry.
"This tribe can be reached in a little more than a day, but it took you three days to get there. What do you think?"
General Gao was really in trouble. If this speed were used to test riding skills in the frontier army, the instructor would have to beat his own legs, but he couldn't leave them alone.
"General, I, can we join the frontier army after we go back? I heard that several of the marquis's wives can go into battle to kill the enemy."
General Gao had a strange look on his face.
"Why do you want to be a soldier? It's not that simple? Aren't you afraid of death?"
Several of the women looked miserable.
"General, you don't know that most of us are cooks, responsible for cooking, sewing, and feeding animals in the caravan."
"Some of them are little girls who come out alone to earn some money for their families. Some of them are dead when the whole family is dead. I, we won't have a home when we go back!!!"
"We have all died once, so what are we afraid of?"
"Woooooo~~~~"
Several other women were so moved that they immediately wiped away tears.
General Gao immediately felt dizzy when he heard the women cry.
"Hey, hey, hey, I told you to stop crying. My head hurts when I cry!"
The girls sobbed and finally managed to stop their tears.
General Gao spread his hands.
"I can't make a decision on this. I guess even General Tian Zong doesn't have the right to make the decision. In fact, you can learn some medical skills. If you can become a military doctor, you can live a very comfortable life alone."
These women's eyes suddenly lit up.
In this era, whether at home or abroad, women will never be able to survive without relying on men.
Even if he could survive, it would be rare.
Because this is an era without takeout, supermarkets, or any modern industry.
In addition to those in power, ordinary people are still struggling to survive. Examples like Yuntong County are unique.
Farming requires men's blood and sweat before they can be harvested. Regardless of anything or any civilization, it has no meaning if it loses food.
Women are naturally not as strong as men in farming, but I believe they will get better in the future.
After all, with large-scale farming machinery, as long as it requires capital and a few cattle, there will be no problem for a few people to manage hundreds of acres of farmland, not to mention too many.
Deep cultivation is the way to go, and those free-range farming methods in the West are simply too stretched.
Planting is not just about putting seeds in and watering them to grow. Watering and fertilizing, regular weeding and pest control, pest and disease control, and irrigation are all there to harvest.
Therefore, it is extremely difficult for a woman to survive on her own.
Seeing the depressed mood of these women, General Gao waved his hands.
"Don't be so discouraged. Just follow us for now and then make arrangements when you get back. The premise is that you don't find it hard, okay?"
General Gao kept beating the drum in his heart.
It is taboo to bring a woman with you in the army, but for the time being it is just an expedient.
What he is most worried about now is that these women are just full of passion and hatred and will not be able to hold on for long.
What they need now is to complete the mission. Five thousand people, at least fifty thousand people, must be killed. This is not an easy task.
The original task was not difficult. What Wu Anhou wanted was to shock the other countries.
Ten times the human life, the total number of caravans robbed and killed in Xia Kingdom was around 2,000, which meant that they only had to kill 20,000.
Twenty thousand people, that's not a simple group. Except for the one that robbed and killed the Huns, there are a total of five armies. Each army only needs to complete 4,000 people.
Originally, the mission was completed by killing 8,000 people, but no one was rescued. Secondly, General Gao, as the commander of this attack, must have killed more than other armies.
Otherwise, I won’t be able to look sorry on my face.
No, one kill is too much!
Now it's better, we have to kill 50,000 people.
We have just killed three tribes with a total of people. You must know that the Western Huns only have a population of one million. Even if they are more than the Eastern Huns, their numbers are limited.
It's not that they can't give birth, it's that the conditions on the grassland really can't support so many people.
There was also a share of thirty-six thousand men, and General Gao was now in Alexander.
Is it so easy to find a tribe with tens of thousands of people?
Even if it is found, what will happen?
A tribe with more than 10,000 people is close to the core of the Xiongnu power.
It is too difficult to win the battle and not reduce the number of troops at the same time.
Every time he thinks of this, General Gao wants to chop off his own hands and make them itchy.
Now he is under great pressure and it is almost impossible to complete the task within the specified time.
But extending the time is okay, but extending the time means exposing risks.
They don't have the strength to fight the main force of the Huns now, and they are still a little bit worse. The main dish is the ranger attack, and they can run away even if they are discovered.
This means that they must seize the time every day in the future.
If he did not complete the task within the specified time, he would face the end of being hunted down by the entire Western Huns with 5,000 cavalry.
"You guys go down first."
The girls leaned behind and walked out a little reluctantly.
They are extremely insecure and don't know what life will be like in the future. Many women have long since lost their families. The world is so vast that there is no place to stand.
Just trying to survive feels too difficult.
After the girls left, they immediately let the generals in. Suddenly the tent was filled with smoke. Everyone took out the cigarettes they had collected for a long time and started smoking.
When I was passionate at that time, I was really passionate. Looking back now, I really can't laugh.
Someone originally proposed that they want these women to stay here and wait for the follow-up cavalry to come to pick them up. After looking at it later, it was impossible to do it just because of speed.
After all, the cavalry was here to drive cattle and sheep away, so it was impossible to go any faster.
In the end, it was decided to let the women ride war horses. Anyway, riding is all about riding more.
Scatter all the scouts out.
An hour later, the scout returned and reported that the number of tribes gradually increased.
General Gao needs to choose from these tribes. Of course, he does not choose the inferior ones, but chooses the tribes that are far apart from each other, so that he can kill them without being noticed.
The speed must be fast, and there will be communication between the tribes. If the three tribes that I killed are discovered, it will be a big event that will cause a sensation in the entire grassland.
After eating and drinking, and bringing some supplies, the cavalry got up and rushed towards the distance.
From this moment, General Gao started his road to fame.
In just half a month, General Gao led his troops to annihilate twelve tribes and annihilated at least 50,000 Huns.
within a tribe.
A large number of corpses were piled together, and the gurgling blood from their necks dyed the nearby grassland blood red.
A man's head was tied to the saddle.
