Chapter 161 Qin Tuma and the two armies defending the city were attacked at night (the first update asks for automatic subscription)
Years of invincible battles have made the Ever-Victorious Battalion, from top to bottom, including generals and soldiers, more or less coquettish.
This thing is unavoidable, sweeping the opponent every time, even a saint must be secretly proud.
Although Xiao Qi made very strict military regulations for the Changsheng Battalion, and these generals implemented them thoroughly, but once there is pride in their hearts, it is inevitable that they will be a little arrogant.
Qin Tu and Ma Shoucheng encountered such a problem.
It wasn't that the two of them were so proud of their victories that there was nothing wrong with them. They also sent people to check around as usual, but neither they nor the soldiers below were too careful.
Because there are grasslands all around here, or some uninhabited valleys, those scouts have checked and found nothing.
This is a grassland, and the soldiers of Changsheng Battalion are not familiar with the environment here.
In addition to some small roads, even though there were large-scale migrations of nomadic tribes last year, after several snow or rain washes, the ruts on the ground are basically invisible.
In the next spring, new grass grew, and the surrounding area was the same. These scouts who were not familiar with the grassland conditions could not find where the nomads used to migrate.
They could only follow the ruts of the various tribes who were unwilling to submit to the Song Dynasty and migrated to go out and investigate.
From Song Jun's point of view, there are grasslands all around, and there is no way to find out where there is a road. It can also be said that there are roads everywhere.
But the herdsmen who migrate back and forth to graze on this vast land all year round know it very well.
They have the experience handed down from their ancestors, from one place to another, what kind of road is suitable for pulling a heavy cart, and what kind of road is suitable for riding a horse.
Although which road is not easy to walk, it is much closer and can save a lot of time.
These things are very clear to those tribes.
As a soldier of the Changsheng Battalion who had just arrived, he didn't understand at all.
Although the scout battalion was not lazy at all, they still went around to investigate the hundred miles around the barracks very clearly, but they didn't know that there was a short-cut path passed down by the herdsmen.
There are dozens of lower tribes who moved away because they were unwilling to stay as Song people, and the number of their tribes ranged from a few hundred to 2000.
These tribes were informed that those who are willing to stay as Song people can stay, and those who do not want to stay as Song people must leave here.
These herdsmen have no concept of a country at all now. They have always been a powerful tribe controlling a weak tribe. It doesn't matter if they become Song people, because they may migrate away next year, and they are not Song people after leaving this area.
But those soldiers said that as Song people, they could not go far away, and could only move and graze within the scope of the Longyou Protectorate.
This Longyou Protectorate's Mansion is said to have a large territory, and the water and grass are still plump, but these herdsmen have a long-term living habit of migrating.
In addition, they understand that this land is indeed not small, and the water and grass are also good, but because of this, there are so many small tribes grazing in this area at this time, and this land simply cannot support so many nomadic tribes.
Together, they decided to abandon this place and leave. It was very unpleasant to be suddenly driven away from a place where they were very satisfied. In addition, nomadic democracies were originally grazing everywhere, and they were tough by nature when dealing with jackals, tigers and leopards all year round.
After these tribes migrated out of the range designated by the Song army, they began to gather together, and the leaders of each tribe discussed what to do.
These tribesmen who are tough by nature feel that they have been wronged and want to take revenge on the Song people, but the Song army is very powerful in combat, and they dare not trouble the Song people with only a few dozen small tribes.
In the end, it was decided to send people to ask for help from the big tribes in the south. Of course, the price was that dozens of small tribes declared their allegiance to the superpower.
This kind of thing is normal for them, and once you are loyal to a tribe, no matter where you migrate to and get a summoning order from a big tribe, you must send young and strong members of the tribe to join the battle of the super big tribe you are loyal to.
In this way, although these small tribes have to contribute to the big forces they are loyal to, they will also be protected by such big forces, and those other forces will not easily provoke them again.
Originally, these small tribes migrated to the far north because they were too weak and unwilling to participate in the chaos created by the major tribes in Tubo.
Because they feel that their tribe is too small to withstand the toss, and if they participate in it, the tribe may disappear.
Now they were driven back by the Song people to the south where the great powers fought against each other. They had to choose a big power to join, otherwise they would be killed soon.
The result of their joint discussions this time was that they joined together to form a larger force and surrendered to the super force closest to them.
The condition is to ask them to help people like me get rid of Song people, and even if they can't get rid of them, let them help me express my anger.
The closest super power to them is Tuyuhun. In the battle between several big powers, Tuyuhun was at a disadvantage and suffered a lot of losses.
Now there were dozens of small tribes running to pledge their allegiance to them. Their leader, Mu Lian, who proclaimed himself Khan, was overjoyed. In order to show the power of his tribe, he devoted all his strength to sending an army of [-] to help them attack the Song army.
These dozens of small tribes also understand that in order to be valued after returning to Tuyuhun in the future, they must show the strength of these dozens of small tribes.
They knew that the fighting power of the Song people was strong, and with the [-] or [-] able-bodied tribes they had pieced together from dozens of weak tribes, they couldn't fight the Song army head-on, that would be death.
The leader of a small tribe suggested that the Song people were new here and were not familiar with the terrain and roads. The newly built camp was very close to a path that few people walked, so why not sneak attack them at night.
This proposal was immediately approved by everyone, and it was decided to do so.
So they sent people again to report to the [-] Tuyuhun army that was coming to them, asking them to hurry up, and they were going to attack the Song army's camp the night before the army arrived.
I hope that when they arrive, they can take advantage of the chaos in the Song Army's camp just after being attacked by surprise, and defeat the Song Army in one fell swoop.
Mu Lian came here personally with an army of [-] Tuyuhuns. He has been concentrating on the battle with the major tribes in Tubo all year round, and has never paid attention to the changes in the outside world.
The self-proclaimed Khan Mulian thought that the Song people were still as invincible as before, and ordered the army to speed up. They must not let those small tribes drive the Song people away.
Then they would have no way to stand up to these dozens of small tribes.
The [-] troops quickly sped up and rushed towards the southernmost Song Army camp in Longyou Duhu Mansion where the Song Army was located.
It has to be said that geographical advantage is a very important part of the war. The [-] cavalry cobbled together from dozens of small tribes followed the path to the Song Army's camp not far away.
Fortunately, the military regulations of the Changsheng Battalion are very strict. Although they have the mood of being a coquettish soldier, the military regulations formulated by Xiao Qi before are very strict.
It is strictly stipulated in the military regulations that there must be clear and dark posts within [-] miles outside the barracks, and the range is doubled to [-] miles in wartime.
Because they were familiar with the terrain, these Tubo tribes had already sent people to find out the situation in the trail, and sent people to quietly kill Song Junming sentry in the trail.
However, when they came out of the trail, they were spotted by Song Jun's secret whistle. When the secret whistle saw so many people suddenly appearing here, and there was no movement from the bright whistle inside, they knew it was not good, so they quickly picked up the horns hanging on their waists. The trumpet sounded the enemy attack signal.
Because of the narrow passage of the trail, these Tubo tribes were quickly gathering outside the trail, when they suddenly heard the sound of the Song Army's horn, and found that the missed Song Army's dark whistle was blowing the horn and fleeing quickly.
They hurriedly chased out and shot the Song army dark whistle.
But it was already too late. A few miles away from this Song Army secret sentry, the sound of warning horns was heard, and the Song Army camp ten miles away on the trail also began to sound horns.
The people of these tribes understood that even if they retreated now, it was too late. The trail was narrow and difficult to walk, and they couldn't escape the chasing soldiers who sent them off.
It's better to take advantage of this time, when the Song people are still waking up in a deep sleep and rushing forward in a panic. It's only ten miles, which is only a charging distance for the cavalry.
The leading Tubo man drew out his waist knife and shouted, "Rush up and kill the Song people!"
With the seven or eight thousand riders who had just assembled outside the trail, they rushed towards the Song Army camp, and the Tubo people who came out of the trail followed behind these people and wanted to kill the Song Army camp.
You can see it from a high place, the bottom looks like a tadpole, with a big head rushing towards the Song Army camp in front, and a long and narrow tail rushing out from the path one after another.
The rookie actually dreamed that he only updated one chapter, and he couldn't write Chapter 2 even if he hit the wall in a hurry in his dream.When I woke up and looked at my watch, it was already noon. It was more than three hours later than usual. I may have been too tired. Fortunately, I have made enough materials in the past few days. I will order more watch bells in the future. No problem.
