Chapter 450: By the Liaohe River

It was the beginning of October, and the prairie, which used to be as green as the sea, was now withered and yellow. Looking around, the yellow and green alternated, fluctuating with the wind. The Liaohe River had just experienced an autumn flood, and the mighty river roared away, dividing the prairie into two parts. two.

On the side of the Liaohe River, hundreds of large tents are lined up one after another, surrounded by simple fences. Among the lush grass, the cattle and sheep are leisurely and contented, chewing the grass for themselves, looking up from time to time, looking at the blue sky and white clouds, Beep a few times.

Inside the big camp, the man was swinging an ax by himself, splitting the logs into small pieces, and then piled them into piles outside the big tent. On the side of the pile was dried cow and horse manure, which was a little farther away. , it is a pile of hay that is piled up like a mountain. At this time, it is time to prepare fuel for the winter and prepare rations for cattle and sheep.

Gathered here is a small tribe of the Xiongnu called the Buyi tribe. The whole tribe has only a few hundred tents and less than two thousand people. It used to be able to gather four to five hundred cavalry, but since the Xiongnu was captured by the Qin State and was defeated, None of the 300 cavalry sent by the Buyi tribe returned, which seriously damaged the vitality of the tribe.

With the advent of the turbulent times on the prairie, the Buyi people were weak and weak, and they migrated all the way. Fortunately, they almost crossed the entire prairie and came to the bank of the Liao River. There is not a short distance, and winter is coming soon, the head of the Buyi tribe, Luo Feng, decided to live here temporarily, and wait until the winter is over, spring comes, and all things recover, before moving.

In today's Buyi tribe, there are only less than two hundred middle-aged men left to fight on horseback. The whole tribe, as many as old and weak, women and children, have already been exhausted from long-distance migration, and now they can temporarily settle down here. They are all very happy, the water and grass are luxuriant here, and many people are thinking of settling down here after giving birth.

Luo Feng rode on the back of a steed, smiling and looking at the children among the tribes who were galloping on the grassland with a set of horse poles. Although they are all riding ponies. But it is already in shape, and many of them will be a few years away. Then they can grow into a man, and when they grow up this crop, the Buyi people can flourish again.

It has been almost two years since Qin defeated the Huns, and the pain has gradually become a thing of the past. The dead are gone, and the living will continue. Fortunately, the grassland that has always been chaotic has gradually stabilized. There are no other tribes around where the Buyi people are now. This gives them a perfect setting.

In a few years, life will be better, the children will grow up, and there will be more and more cattle and sheep. Better days are not too far away.

Luo Feng happily circled the horse, and prepared to go to the camp to inspect it again. Winter is coming soon, and the forage and fuel must be prepared, otherwise, when the heavy snow comes, the life will be difficult.

The moment he steered his horse back, the whole person froze. At the end of his field of vision, a black line suddenly appeared, but in the blink of his eyes, that black line had turned into a dense mass of darkness. one slice,

It was that countless cavalry were advancing in this direction, the ground began to tremble, and Luo Feng's face turned pale.

Those galloping cavalry are by no means less than a thousand. He didn't even see clearly the flag flying among the cavalry of the other side, he had already galloped desperately towards the camp, and at the same time shouted hoarsely: "The enemy is coming, the enemy is coming, get on your horse, everyone get on your horse."

In fact, without his calling, all the people in the camp felt the tremors on the ground. The men hurriedly put on their horses and rushed out of the camp, while the women hurriedly put on the saddles for the horses and threw their children on it. The things in the big tent are completely ignored at this time.

Less than two hundred men gathered on Luo Feng's left side. They watched desperately as the galloping cavalry separated from one side to the other and surrounded their camp. All in one go. Looking at the opponent's speed, I'm afraid that this time the Buyi clan will be wiped out in this place.

On the current grassland, there are no friends. As long as the two races meet, if the strength is equal, it is fine, but if one is weak and the other is strong, it will be the result of a jungle of the jungle. m

Luo Feng's heart was gloomy, and he didn't expect that after fleeing for a long time, he finally couldn't escape.

"Patriarch, which clan do they belong to?" A strong man beside Luo Feng finally saw the flying flag clearly. In his image, there had never been such a tribe on the prairie.

"Zhengdong!" Luo Feng murmured, "Which tribe is this? He Lan, is it the He Lan tribe?"

Beside Zhengdong's big banner, another general was flying, but on it was written the word He Lan.

This cavalry is precisely the cavalry battalion under the command of He Lanxiong under the Gaoyuan Army of Zhengdong Army that came from Jingyuan. When they discovered the Huns tribe here, they immediately outflanked the tribe from left to right, and surrounded the tribe. At this time, behind them, more soldiers from the Eastern Expedition Army had just appeared on the horizon.

Starting from Yulin to Jingyuan at the end of August, it took almost a month for them to finally reach the bank of the Liaohe River. Although all of them were dressed in rags and lost a lot of weight, they still looked extremely energetic. At this time, sabers were unsheathed and surrounded the Buyi people.

Luo Feng swallowed nervously, each of these men looked extremely fierce, and the thick murderous aura on their bodies was overwhelming, and looking at the nervous clansmen around him, Luo Feng knew that there was nothing wrong with them at all. Confrontation of suspense, as long as the other party gives an order, the entire Buyi tribe will cease to exist.

He sighed, turned over and dismounted, and threw the scimitar in his hand high on the ground. At the same time, he turned his head and shouted to the people: "Get off the horse, throw away the weapon!"

The Buyi warriors looked at the patriarch hesitantly. Behind them were women, children, old people and children of their tribe. Now, these people are all trapped in the camp. If they put down their weapons, wouldn't they be slaughtered?

"Put down your weapon!" Luo Feng roared, the opponent's situation is like a war, is there any difference in the result?

In the stern voice of the patriarch, the men of the Buyi tribe resignedly threw away the scimitars in their hands and got off their horses. Luo Feng breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hands high above his head, and walked towards the leader of the cavalry on the opposite side.

Seeing the opponent put down his weapon, He Lanxiong also breathed a sigh of relief, "You are Huns, which tribe are you from?" This sentence was asked in the Huns language.

Seeing the other party's interrogation, Luo Feng's high-hanging heart finally let go a little, and he didn't order to do it immediately, and the matter had a turning point: "My lord, we are the Buyi clan, and I am Luo Feng, the patriarch. Migrating from afar, we didn’t know that this is your pasture, sir, please let us go in large numbers, sir, we are willing to donate cattle, sheep and horses to your tribe.”

Here Cheng Ran met the Huns who migrated from afar, He Lanxiong was surprised and delighted, got off his horse, and strode up to meet them, "Buyei, I have heard that I am He Lanxiong of the Helan nationality, and this is not the case here." Our pastures, you Buyi people are grazing in the Batuo area, how did you get here?"

"So it's really the Helan Xiong patriarch of the Helan tribe!" Luo Feng was overjoyed, "I've heard the name of the Helan patriarch too, I heard that the Helan patriarch is working for Dayan now, why is he here?"

He Lanxiong waved his hand, "I followed General Dayan Zhengdong to attack Donghu. Now that the battle is over, I am going home. How did you go so far? You are moving forward, and you are about to enter the territory of Donghu people. They are a gang of cannibals." Master who doesn't spit out bones!"

Looking at the appearance of He Lanxiong and his party, Luo Feng guessed that it must have been a defeat, otherwise how could they be in such a mess, thinking of this, he couldn't help becoming nervous again, the defeated army is even more brutal.

"The prairie is so chaotic, there are endless battles among the tribes, the Buyi tribe is small and weak, and their cattle and sheep are limited, so they can only flee all the way here." Luo Feng said.

"It's been half a year, is it still like this?" He Lanxiong was a little depressed, "Isn't there a big clan coming out to clean up the mess?"

Luo Feng shook his head, "The big tribes either moved away or fought against each other. If small tribes like us stay in Bator, they can only become other people's slaves. We can only leave. The Gongsun family in Shishan is harassing the Huns in large numbers, and the Shannan County newly established by the Qin State is also recruiting our cavalry."

When Luo Feng mentioned Jishi Mountain, He Lanxiong couldn't help showing a smile on his face. He didn't expect Jishi Mountain to be so famous now. Seeing Luo Feng's tense expression, He Lanxiong laughed, "Patriarch Luo Feng, you don't have to worry, I'm not a grassland horse bandit, nor a grassland bandit. Yan Ming, he will never mess around, the patriarch can rest assured." He turned his head and pointed to the army approaching on the horizon, "Look, that's where our main force is, and General Gao Yuan is among them. We are just returning to western Liaoning from here."

Hearing what He Lanxiong said, Luo Feng was finally completely relieved, bowed and said: "Prairie etiquette, meeting is a guest, Helan patriarch, I wonder what my Buyi tribe can do for you?"

He Lanxiong smiled and said: "There is really a place to ask the patriarch for help. To tell you the truth, we have lost the battle and can only go home by detour to the grassland. The food and grass have been eaten up. I want to ask the patriarch to help us through the difficulties. In the future It pays off."

Luo Feng looked at the more than a thousand cavalry around He Lanxiong, and then at the infantry in the distance who were rapidly approaching here. His face turned bitter. Looking at the formation in the distance, there were at least three thousand infantrymen. The wealth of the family is probably only enough to fill the stomachs of others. But he had no choice, as long as he dared to say no, these fierce cavalry would gallop into the camp. At that time, their property would not be preserved, and even their lives would be lost.

He regretted it in his heart, but his face was full of smiles: "It is an honor for the Bouyei people to serve the army."
